Interpreting dreams and sharpening pencils

Dreams are uncontrollable. Everything is a subconscious action. You are equivalent to watching a movie in the third person. Many strange dreams are meaningless. They can be the venting of your day's stress, the distortion of your memory in your mind, or the imagination in your daily life.

If you really want to analyze this dream, from a psychological point of view, it is that you have no confidence in yourself subconsciously. "Hollow" is a sign of inferiority or self-confidence. Giving someone a pencil means that you think others will sharpen it, which means that you think others are more capable than you.
