Dream - Visiting an Old Friend

I dreamed that I went to visit an old friend of mine at his apartment building.  Supposedly he lived in a huge modern-looking skyscraper type of building. There were three different high-speed elevators in the building, and each of them would go to a different range of floors.

I got on one elevator but realized that it didn't go to his floor.  So I rode back down to the lobby and got on the right elevator.  This time I was trying to read the signs twice to make sure I didn't got on the wrong elevator again.

The sign was very confusing.  It indicated this elevator went to the north side of the building, and that elevator went to the south side, etc, but it didn't specify the name of the tenants. So I still wasn't sure if I got on the right one.

I rode to the floor where I thought my friend lived.  After I got out, there was a glass passage way from the elevator to the center of the building, where there was another sign that listed the groups of people who lived in each corridor.  Yet, I still couldn't find my friend's name.

Again by memory, I walked towards the side where I thought my friend lived.  I faced another smaller elevator, once I reached the end of the walkway.  I got in and kept riding up. 

When I got out of the small elevator, there's another sign that finally listed the room number and the name of each tenant.  I found my friend's name on the sign, and went to his apartment. 

After I rang the bell, an Asian female about my age answered the door. She was confused why I was there.  I said I just wanted to visit my friend and see how he was doing.  Supposedly my friend was participating in a peaceful political protest, where he would not eat anything until the government officials listened to his claims. 

The female turned around and yelled loudly to tell my friend that he had a visitor.  I remained at the door because the female didn't invite me in.  I guessed she was his new girlfriend or something.  Shortly, my friend came out from the back.  I was shocked when I saw him.  Because of the starving, he had become very thin.  Normally, (well, how do I say this nicely) he had a big nice belly. But now he looked like bare bones.

He was very excited to see me and asked me to go in.  We chatted a little to catch up, and he said his protest was going well, and he felt energetic. 

That's pretty much all I can remember from the dream.
