    1. Scary Convention

      by , 10-24-2014 at 09:30 PM
      My parents and I where at a convention that was in the middle of a bad neighborhood. I had an uneasy feeling so I kept trying to find ways to get away.

      I tried to get in the car to get away, but I found a man in the backseat and when I asked him to leave he pulled out a gun and he tried to shoot me. I got away and kept trying to get my parents to leave.

      Then I got into an elevator that tried to kill me with blades but I proved stronger than the trap. I found one of my friends in a bookshop, but all was not well. A man kept trying to molest me and after trying to get away I decided it was time to fight back. I got close to him and used leverage to get my hands free and palm strike his face, when he made a grab for me I got even closed, hooked his leg and knocked him down.

      My friend and other people interrupted the situation and for that I was happy, I don't like having to fight.

    2. Temporal Disruption approaching!

      by , 10-24-2014 at 07:54 PM
      Bad nights sleep, couple of non lucid bits of keechy pants

      Up the back in the shop (yawn!) A tall English many came in wanting a kilt and my employee took him through the back (oh aye!) I was sitting at my wee table and looked outside and it was snowing heavy. I said to my employee 'Its snowing!' - 'Where?' she replied... I think I said something sarky and then someone commented on the size of the flakes (which were fell big)

      Standing at a door inside someones hoose. I was kneeling and footering about with a device of sorts. A friend I ahvnae seen IRL for ages burst in, and said - 'Ye'll never get that thing working'

      That's ma lot!

    3. Afternoon Intergalactic Space Flight

      by , 10-24-2014 at 07:48 PM
      I went for an afternoon nap to attempt the WILD technique, but I fell asleep in the hypnogogic phase. Next thing I knew, I was floating in space, and quickly realized I must be dreaming. The view was amazing, better than what you see on the clearest nights.

      I decided to head off into space to see how far I could go. At first the stars were passing by me quickly (like the Starship Enterprise), and I soon found myself leaving the Milky Way. Continuing to accelerate I could see complete galaxies starting to slowly pass me by, then I went faster and faster, until the galaxies were streaming past me like streaks of light. There were millions of them. It is hard to describe. Next stop was the edge of the universe. I wanted to keep going until there was nothing but blackness, but the galaxies just kept coming.

      Then I heard a voice, “Supper Time!” Oh crap, it’s my wife! No!!! I came to a complete stop, and I could see a spiral galaxy right in front of me. I heard my wife call my name. Oh no, the view is fading. I decided to head off back to earth, because what would happen if I woke up way out here, would I be okay? I spun around and took off in the direction I came from. Clarity improved. I flew for about a 30 seconds and stopped. I looked around. I could see galaxies, but which one was mine? I was totally lost. I panicked, woke up, and then had supper. I tried to describe what I was just dreaming about, but my family just gave me a blank look(There goes dad again talking about his lucid dreams).

    4. 10/24/14 One LD DJ at a time I'll try - quick notes still

      by , 10-24-2014 at 07:01 PM
      (Not my son). A little boring for anyone but me probably. Leave College? classes (4 classes meet only once per week-must be College) to pick up "sick" son. Bring him back to school to get homework/assignments, nah...Chasing my now 'young again' son playfully running out of my car and darting behind a building into a very narrow alley...he turns into a girl and I think dream-like that I can squeeze into that tight alley no problem (that I wouldn't have a chance to in waking life). I see the gap opens up further down and can see the girl and several boys about to go into a doorway. I decide to float up and say to one of the boys that has approached "see, this is all a dream." (taking a dream-only action seems to be a way to make sure I pay attention to the realization that I am dreaming...no longer getting many "a-ha's!" but almost always now getting "Okay, this is a dream." The green part above may have been just such a moment.). Fully comfortable that I am not really about to lose my son since this is all a dream, I turn my back away from where he (turned girl) went and the boy that approached just before follows me and I float down to him and after thinking about knocking him aside for some reason, I think why...and instead put my hands on each side of his face in a caring way and resolve to just study his face. His face is very smooth like young skin but then I feel a few prickly spots like he has stubble in a few spots and I think that is odd for the dream to come up with. I decide to move on and float away and start to think if there were any pretty teachers in the school next door that I was in earlier. The boy wants to hold on to my hand though. I shake my hand gently but obviously and he takes a bite of my hand. I am patient knowing it is a dream but I still try different things like pulling my hand out from the grip of his teeth (not painful), giving in and letting him eat it off, prying his teeth apart with my other hand (the teeth felt very realistic when I reach in with my other hand), or just teleporting away. Scene goes gray and I just float in the void before my wife wakes me up. (for real, no FA unless I am still dreaming right now! It's always possible! haha)
      Not as brief as I planned. Earlier sweet dream with Girl Friday planning to spend the day with her and a number of times I was questioning the scenarios/specifics (not my car - who's is it, is that a family member?, ) in my mind. Also an adorable baby I was taking care of and trying to keep asleep. 220

      Getting more recall out of short naps with "bubble thinking outside of my body" both yesterday afternoon (less than 15 minutes nap) and the same this morning before starting my day.

      For my record...Things I have been doing lately. Day: RRCIS. Quick RRC with hand motion out and in + quick clear light + I am here! I am he who is aware of this awareness +occasional dream action imagined (since I affect everything around me) + what was I thinking or doing 5 minutes before. (sounds complicated but it is usually done in about 10-15 seconds / Intermixed (sometimes also do this or just do this or just do the previous) ... RC-really stop + simulate RC showing dream & slowing down observing, imaginatively taking dream actions. (can be longer depending on how long I continue the imagination).
      Night: pre-bed & wbtb... some quick combined SSILD cycles broken off and intermixed (however I feel like it at the time) with imagining being in a scene (sometimes specific, i.e. hotel) other than my bedroom as being a general dream sign and becoming lucid + taking a dream only action, but also reminding myself to motionless RC in bedroom for FA's.
    5. Platoon Leader

      by , 10-24-2014 at 06:11 PM
      I was in some building in the tropics, I'm not really sure why or what was in it but I know we angered the (very dangerous) people inside and were trying to escape. At this point I wasn't really the leader, just a part of this small squad we were in. I opened the door to leave the building and these guys jumped out of the bushes with machine guns. My squad opened fire and somehow managed to get out, but I didn't react fast enough so I got driven back into the building. Unfortunately I didn't have a gun, but I did have a couch cushion that could stop bullets. However, eventually they cornered me and I gave up. I said
      "Theres no way I'm going to win just make it quick and shoot me in the head".
      Then I started shaking all over because I was legitimately scared of dying. He raised his gun. I turned towards him and shouted,
      "FUCK THIS SHIT I'M NOT DYING LIKE A BITCH".
      While I was saying that he started laughing and quickly unloaded 5 bullets into my chest, but I stumbled towards him, knocked him over, and ripped off the front half of his head with my teeth. At the same time my squad came back and took out the other guys.
      I'm not sure what happened between there and the next part but this squad was now a platoon, and we were on the beach doing something military. Or maybe we were stranded. I don't know, because this part was a bit fuzzy. I was also the leader of the platoon. For some reason a guy went psycho and turned most of the platoon against me; it was kind of like Lord Of The Flies. Only this time, I shot him and they were all somehow freed from his spell. I had called in backup from the U.S. Navy awhile back, and when I saw a few ships in the distance I thought it was them. Until they started bombarding the beach. It was the Danish Navy and for some reason they wanted to kill us. What they didn't know was that we also had several ships with very high firepower. I think it was like 2 destroyers, a submarine, and some other stuff. Anyways, we boarded our ships and began to leave the bay we were in (we were headed for the Danish fleet). Then we realized it was not the Danish fleet that was bombarding us but a castle they had built on a small island. They had artillery on the ramparts. We went to the island and were working out ways to breach the wall when I woke up.
    6. Horses, slide and rain

      by , 10-24-2014 at 05:35 PM
      We were in a kind of park and we played the sparrowhawk game(?). I was running really fast to win, but my parents called me and asked me to take care of the horses. After that, i was in a playground. In the center of the playground, there was a huge wood castle, you know, the ones with slides. There also were a boy (I don't know who it was, he was blond and tall). So, we slide and I woke up. It was not really easy for me to fall asleep again, but when I did, I was coming back from the bakery that is next to my school, and I was going in science class, like I do every tuesday. Everything seemed to be normal : I met my crush and said "hi" and the bell rang. I was late, so I ran and, when I get into class, it started to rain in the whole school and I put on a swimming cap. I can't remember what happened after that...

      1st Dream

      Don't recall much but I remember seeing Dawn in a room. Than going to a place where I saw anime characters. There was a guy wearing a kimono with light blue hair and I told him to fight me. He agreed to fight but than I tried using charm to defeat him and I won the battle. Than....something else happened that I completely forgot about. I'll write it down if I remember later on.


      Second dream


      I was upstairs with my cousin and decided to go downstairs to see what I could find in my younger brother's room. Sadly, my other cousin and brother was there playing video games. I was hoping for another dream character so I left the room. When out of no where a walking zombie hand came down the stairs. I felt like fighting with it but out of no where a guy came and started biting on my neck. I pushed him back and ran to the room where the zombie hand was to see what moves I could try on it. To my surprise though the angle of the dream changed and the hand appeared to be bigger and higher above me. I left the room after that and the dream changed.
      I was now in a video game with my brothers shooting teddy bears. Felt exactly like "Conquer's bad fur day." I didn't want to play a game so violent though so I quit. The next thing I know I ended up in a park feeding angry bloody puppys who were tearing up the meat I gave them. However, three of them bit me so I told my dad. But he wasn't really my dad and I was now a little boy or pre teen. The man shouted at me to be a man and hit me after i told him. So I shouted back at him and he hit me with a broom stick. I ran after that and said I was going to tell mom when suddenly I noticed a cool liquid falling from my head. The dad shot some febreeze at me after that and made fun of me.The scene changed after that and I was running in a house from the abusive man. As I ran i told another man who i felt was my father to protect me.But as the other fired a missile they looked like they were being entertained by my fears. When I saw that the chase ended I sat down in a chair and a boy sat on my lap. I felt like he was my BF so i hugged him but than said I was going to break up with him cause I feel like there's something missing. The sister got mad at me but I left her to her madness so i could catch the bus to the other country. When i got out my mom and grandma were sitting in a park and talking about stuff so i joined them before i left than woke up.

    8. Snakes Away

      by , 10-24-2014 at 04:24 PM
      Morning of October 24, 2014. Friday.

      Dream #: 17,476-04. Reading time (optimized): 1 min.



      I am in a dream-rendered alternate version of Cubitis, likely in 1974. The school bus has stopped at the next-door neighbor’s house. Instead of getting on it, I walk northeast and end up in a jungle. (The area was mostly cow pastures and orange groves in reality.)

      I fly to evade black and dark green giant snakes that follow me as I go back around on a meandering semicircular journey, mostly southwest. I get the impression at times as I am nearing a regional barrier between two worlds that the snakes can swim through the air. The scenario resets to repeat at least three times. Each time, I am also eventually able to focus and wave my hand to cause the snakes to fall back and stay in their territory.

      There is something about letters being sent to the wrong people, though that is straightened out (not by conventional means but dream state mental processing that resolves it). Zsuzsanna is here in Cubitis, the distant past and present mixed in the typical erroneous composite.



      (There are times when I was able to correlate snakes with stomach discomfort or the state of the digestive system. There are associations with human intestines because of similar shape and their coiling.)



      Eluding the flying snakes while I am in flight could stem from my subliminal anticipation of the back spasm I experience in specific states of sleep. I can control them at times, though not typically. Their cause stems from a distinct awareness of liminal space.

    9. Breathing test / High school music competition

      by , 10-24-2014 at 04:20 PM
      I go to bed at 10:30. I wake just after midnight as a sleepwalking child tries to climb over the baby gate. For a minute, I really wonder whether I'm dreaming and do an RC, but it turns out it's real. I return to bed and wake at 4:45. At first, I had no recall at all, but eventually these two popped in. I feel like there was a lot more I couldn't recall.


      Breathing test
      I'm in a fairly small room with three other guys. I've just finished telling a story. I've been holding Stormlight, so I don't need to breathe, but I lost a lot of it during my story. The real reason I'm here is to test whether I can hold my breath for a certain period of time. One of the other guys is undertaking the same test, and the other two people are our testers. I've almost reached the goal time, but because of the lost Stormlight I'm starting to feel the need to breathe. I look through some large cabinets behind me, since I could have sworn there was a canister of Stormlight in one of them, but the cabinets are nearly empty and I can't find any. I'm really starting to run out of air, and it's only a few seconds before I'm going to have to breathe again. The other guy taking the test with me gave up a long time ago and has been breathing normal air for a while now.


      High school music competition
      I'm driving through the parking lot of a high school at night. Most of the cars are gone, though there's a handful parked in a bunch near the school. A bunch of school buses are parked at a fourty-five degree angle from the school, looking like they want to be able to pull away quickly once loaded.

      Now I'm inside walking through a large hallway. The auditorium is coming up on my left, and I know I need to get something from inside it, near the right side of the stage. As I reach the doors and look inside I see that it's not empty - this must be where the people with the cars have gone. The floor in there is really steep, much steeper than a normal auditorium. Down at the front I see Jake sitting behind a piano on the left of the stage. A couple dozen people are sitting on the front row, and I assume they're the judges of some kind of competition. A couple of students are walking around handing papers out to the judges. I realize Jake was the last person to play in the competition, and the judges are about to figure out the final results.

      Fragment: Frozen's Elsa is standing by the side of a road dressing up as different things. An older lady is with her and is pushing her to do better.


      I've never even seen Frozen; and seriously, what is it with all these high school dreams? I never went to a normal high school, and I don't know anyone in high school, but I've had a high school dream for days in a row now. I guess it's time to focus on it as an important dreamsign ... I return to bed at 5 and wake with my wife's alarm at 6:30.

    10. Work Dreams and Too Small Cages for Too Many Chinchillas

      by , 10-24-2014 at 01:56 PM (Krista's Dream Journal)
      Dream - Lucid

      I was at work. Everything seemed quite dark. It was very early in the morning. I was working with this guy that came from another department to learn the bakery IWL. I was filling all these drawers that filled up this tall cabinet-looking thing with things we would need for the day. I was trying to go fast because I had a certain amount of time to be finished with it.

      I then had to take a break. I went and laid down in a bed for my break. I think I was talking to the guy who was still working as I was falling asleep.

      I looked at the clock to check the time, and break was about over. I got out of the bed and continued what I was doing. I then had to go do something else, so the other guy had to take over.
      "You know what to do, right?" I asked.
      He nodded a yes in response. I hoped he wasn't insulted by my question. I then "remembered" that he did that all the time, so of course he knew how.


      I woke up and it was weird; I didn't feel like I had fallen asleep at all. It was only an hour or so later than when I went to bed. I was burning up, so I turned the heat down and went back to sleep.

      ~

      I was in this area, I believe it was a basement, that had these small cages filled with, what I called, "chinchillas", though they looked more like small white mice. There was also one with white cats in it. The chinchillas and the cats were all different sizes; some were big, others were quite small.

      I saw that a medium-sized chinchilla had escaped. I went to scoop her up to put her back in the cage. She bit my palm pretty hard, and it hurt! I carried her over the the cages regardless. I then noticed how small the cages really were; they were small and narrow, and the chinchillas were shoved in there so crowded up. There were two cage doors that would slide open and closed, one on each side of the cage. The chinchillas in the cage were trying to escape by sliding the doors open. I put the one back that I had gotten back inside the cage. The others kept trying to escape. I didn't blame them, but I didn't want them to die out there either. I thought about using different primary colored wooden building blocks (ones I had when I was young IWL) to build on some more room. I laid down a few blocks for a foundation when I noticed that another had escaped, this time a much smaller one. I couldn't find where she went, but then, I saw that a medium-sized white cat had also escaped. She was stretching, as cats do. I hoped that the cat didn't eat the chinchilla.


      ~

      I was getting up for work. I was in my room in the house I grew up in. Ugh so early...

      I was then at work. I wasn't quite sure what I was supposed to be helping with. Shannon was there, this other woman, a tall, kind of fat Indian woman, was also there; she was also supposed to be a manager. Christian was there as well, an assistant manager from another store. There were also a couple of regular employees there as well. I knew there was this new thing where I was supposed to move these racks over to this certain area for the managers to transport to another store via driving this weird, short truck. I moved the things that needed to be moved.

      I then realized I really needed to pee. There was a bathroom "stall" that looked like the tall racks, only hollow on the inside with a toilet. You could see right into the stall. Ugh...I really needed to go. I made sure no one was paying attention, and I went into the stall. It was very small and cramped, and I could see outside (it was like looking through open blinds). I then saw Christian was there. I quickly pulled up my pants and exited the stall so he wouldn't see. I talked to him for a bit. He was about to drive one of those weird trucks. I had a nervous feeling while talking to him (he is actually pretty attractive IWL [yes I know I'm married; I have no intentions of getting with him], and I can tell he finds me attractive too). He then got in his short little truck and started to drive away. I waved, and another man in another similar looking truck that looked like it had a green interstate sign for the side of the truck waved back. I waved again as Christian's truck went by.

      Then, Shannon and the Indian woman pulled up slowly in their truck, very close to me, then drove away. The Indian woman looked at me as they went.

      I then wanted to try to pee again. There was this box next to the rack/bathroom stall that looked a little bigger than the rack/stall. I had a feeling you were supposed to push it in there when you wanted to use the bathroom, because then, no one could see you. Someone had already done that, I think it was Nicky. They were in the now covered stall. I still had to pee.
    11. Forgotten Flying (LD #126), The Connection to Nature (LD #127)

      by , 10-24-2014 at 01:15 PM (Lucid Time!)
      Fragment: Something to do with Jack Black. He is in this really bad comedy partially centered around lucid dreaming.

      Spoiler for slightly sexy:

      I FA'd. I was at college and started walking to class. For some reason my dad showed up and he started talking about Ebola. I didn't want to hear it, so I had to change the subject. But the only thing I could think of was the porn dream. So I told him about it and he listened intently, as if he was enjoying it.
      ...
      This somehow led to lucid flying above campus. I wish I remembered more than flying and hoping that my dream would know what the rooftops of the campus buildings looked like.


      I woke up around 5:00am and wanted to 'go back'. This is happening more and more frequently.

      I was having some dream where my roommate had been replaced by an old lady, and I had to take care of her because she had memory loss and forgot her pills and what not.
      At least she was not grumpy.
      Anyways, she has to take her pills every day, and today we have to go get refills for her. She also has to do her 'hearing' everyday that has something to do with her hearing aid and projecting a frequency that helps her to hear better.
      But my favorite thing to do is help her with her fruit smoothie that she drinks twice a day. She gets her fruit through the government and gets this big basket of fresh fruit everyday, more than enough for her smoothies.
      So I decided to be healthy and start drinking the smoothies with her. I have this juicer/smoothie maker in my room, and when you put the fruit in, a game comes up like fruit ninja. You have to slice the fruit for it to be added to your smoothie. I ended up getting a bunch of mangoes and kiwis in mine.
      There was some aspect to it like the smoothie could be used as rocket fuel. I had this tiny prototype rocket engine attached to the bottom of my smoothie.
      I somehow find myself at this exhibition where this native tribe is visiting from a far-away land and showing off rare herbs and spices. The lady that I am taking care of wants those added to her smoothie. I find this other lady (who was really just an older version of Manei, guess she wanted me taking her seriously in this dream.) She asks me to come over and do something.
      She has a small garden with all of the herbs in it, but there is a pathway running diagonal through it. The garden is like a sandbox, about 3ft by 3ft, and the soil in it is kind of sandy.
      Anyways, she tells me to look down, take two steps and then stop. I take two steps and walk nearly to the other side of the garden. She then somehow shifts me back to the opposite corner and asks me to take two more steps. I follow. This repeats two or three more times. I look up and we are now on a beach.
      She changes to her original age and smiles at me. I do a nose pinch, but strangely, the airflow is 'glitching' on and off. I feel like it is starting and stopping very quickly.
      Nevertheless I become lucid.
      Manei is sitting in the lotus position, and I recognize the beach we are on; the one from my first LD that we used to return to often. It is nighttime and the beach is moonlit.
      "It's time you learned about nature. Everything in nature is connected, though it's hard to look and see the connections. Take this garden for example."
      I look back at the remnants of the Herb garden from the transition. All of the plants are uprooted and ruined. I sit down in front of it. Somehow I decide that I want to make the plants regrow and repair themselves with my mind. I start to focus on the sand and a strong wind comes in blowing all of this dry sand over the plants. Then a bunch of new sprouts came up.
      "Good, now move over there. You're going to use your energy to create a plant from scratch now. Visualize the sand grains as full of life, like each one is a seed."
      For some reason I partially sink into the sand. I focus in on the ground in front of me and try to picture a plant growing. Nothing seems to be happening. I start to get disheartened. Just as I do, I see a bump in the sand and a little sprout comes out. I send my energy to it and it grows into a bushy fern-like plant.
      "You see, this is what the Buddha was talking about. Everyone has a connection to nature!"

      Er... I might not be the most up-to-date on Buddhist scriptures, but isn't he all about inner peace of mind and finding oneself and all that?
      Regardless, she stops talking. I decide to test the 'connection to nature' aspect of this. And somehow, I get from my 'connection to nature' to 'Let's practice waterbending!'. I look out at the ocean, and the waves rolling into the coast. I hold out my hands in front of me, palms down and try to picture the waves stopping.
      Slowly, all of the waves come to a stop and the ocean is a mirror surface. I see the moon and stars reflecting on it. So beautiful. I then release my grip and run into the water.
      I begin moving with the flow of the waves, that come back small at first, and then big. I feel like I am waterbending, but this feels a little more... (oh for heaven's sake) natural. I try to move with the flow of the waves using them to increase my motions rather than fight them. I try to make one of the waves splash Manei and it works. She chases me into the water and tries bending back at me. We are about to get into an all out, for-fun waterbending fight (Because dream guides can have fun too, you know.) when she gets the "oh, sh*t" look and tells me to run.
      I turn around, back out over the sea, and see a tsunami rolling in. Nope, nope! We don't run. I turn and face the wave as it swells into a white-cap and prepares to crash right on me. I hold up both my arms crossed and split the wave down either side. Both sides pass me harmlessly. This feels more like the original water bending, more forceful and less flow-ish. But it's all I can do at this point.
      The gap in the wave continues to widen and Manei passes through the gap as well. I turn back to see her standing on the shore. The wave crashes on either side of her but doesn't dare go near her. I turn around and see another, larger tsunami rolling in. I realize this is becoming one of those 'drowning' dreams that I used to have as a kid. There's no sense in fighting it any longer.
      I send a telepathic shout to Manei saying "Get the heck out of here, I'm gonna wake up." I look to the shore and she becomes blurry and fades away. I turn and face the wave, that is barreling in at impossible speeds. I start thinking that I should wake up, and manage to do so right before the wave hits me.

    12. Getting Her Number, Almost Lucid

      by , 10-24-2014 at 11:23 AM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I was in the mall with a few friends and we were just chilling. As we walked into the food court and looked around for a good place to eat, I saw Naomi. She looked absolutely gorgeous, as always, and I knew from the night before that I told my friend I was going to get her number. I knew what I had to do now, so I walked over to Naomi. Once I got over to her I talked to her for a few minutes, and it was going good. She was with a few other people, but that didnt bother me. Once we really got into the conversation and I was about to get the digits she said, "I really don't like texting, its just stupid." There was a reason behind why she said it in the conversation, but I forgot what brought it up.
      Now I became aware of the fact that even when I did get her number, I would be calling her alot more than texting, and I was cool with that. Suddenly my parents texted me telling me that we were leaving(What? I wasn't even hanging with them). I knew I had to leave so I decided that it was now time to put in the work. "Hey Naomi, give me your number, I really like to talk to later" I told her. Of course though it sounded no where near as creepy as it does here. She told me something about how she couldn't or something along those lines. It wasn't a rejection but more of like she actually couldn't give me her cell.
      I then told her that I'd talk to her later and walked away, for now. I picked up a bite to eat while I was away from her and as I was going to get a seat in the seating area I saw her again, but I wanted to wait a bit before trying again, or for that fact at all. On the way walking to my seat, I saw my mom and dad sitting in a booth in the same area and they were telling me to go back to Naomi now and get her number. I motioned to them it wasn't a good time. At this, I sat down in my seat and stared to eat. I was eating I looked up from my table and saw my parents staring at Naomi from their seats, like a dead stare. It was as though they were stalking her or something.
      After I finished my food I got up, threw away my trash in the trashcan, and then went back to Naomi to see "What was up". When I saw her she was sitting by herself at a table, and she looked to be a bit sad. I went up to her and asked what was up(<<see what I did there). She told me why she was sad, I forgot most of the conversation though. I then told her, "Well hey, give me your number and we can talk about it later." I know this sounds pretty bad lol, but it sounded so much better in the dream, like not awkward at all. I pulled out my phone and Naomi gave me her number. "Yes! I finally got it!" I thought to myself.

      2. I was in my room and had just "woken up" and was now sitting up in my bed with my lights on. I picked up my phone which was to the right of me and turned it on. Immediately I looked at the time and saw that it was "1:83 a.m". When I saw this I was stunned, "What, that's impossible." I looked away from my phone and looked back. Now I saw "1:83 p.m". This made more sense to me, so I kind of didn't care anymore. But now I looked at my digital clock, and it matched the time on my phone. I would've became lucid if I realized that "1:83" wasn't a time at all.
    13. #38 - River, rain, and a cave/In my robe at the mall

      Black: Non-dream
      Blue: Non-lucid
      Red: Lucid

      Tried SSILD again last night, set my alarm for 3:25am. I rolled around in bed a while trying to coax myself to get up, 20 minutes later I did.

      Dream 1 - River, rain, and a cave
      I'm inside a cave, the ground has dryish dirt on it, it's pretty dark inside because there isn't a light source and it's a rainy day outside. I walk to the exit and look outside, the entrance is blocked by a flowing shallow river (knee-thigh deep). I apparently decided I wanted to leave the cave, and headed into the river which had rounded rocks on the bottom, making it hard to wade through. The river only spanned a short 10 metres wide. I looked back down the river and at the cave behind me too, the cave I was in was apart of a large rocky wall, it looked almost unnaturally hollowed out. I managed to cover about 8/10th of the river and was about to reach the riverbank but woke up.

      Dream 2 - In my robe at the mall
      Me and my close friend D are at the shopping mall walking around. I suddenly realize I'm in my robe! I head to a nearby store and buy a blue shirt, some shorts, and a red unbuttoned flannel shirt. For some reason this dissatisfies me, and I tell my friend D to go on without me while I go get some 'cool' clothes. I head off to a different clothing store, this one has nice wooden floors and tall wooden shelves, the shop is quite big. I see to my left a bunch of shirts on sale, but they look like they're for kids, so I go further into the shop and keep searching. I either forgot the rest or woke up.

      2 exams are over and I got 2 weeks to go until my next one, I started doing RCs again today and will be firing up my determination too

    14. Apple Store and Apartment

      by , 10-24-2014 at 10:05 AM
      1st.I can remember that there was a valley type area, at the top was a parking lot and a fountain. At the bottom was an apple store that was featured on a keynote. There was someone in a car that was hella mad, I hopped in the car and we sped down the valley to the apple store at the bottom. The apple store had a back area with a few counters and a little nook area with other electronics

      2nd.As of now I can remember us being on top of an apartment building. There was Tatum(Cousin), Tom(Brother), Luke(Brother), Aunty Vanessa, Uncle Victor, Nash(Cousin) and a few other people. There were bean bags on the outside although I didn’t want to sit there or something was bothering me so I moved inside. Here there were a bunch of bean bags and it was cool inside and the only thing I had to put up with was kids.

      Morning of October 24, 2014. Friday.



      This is the third vivid dream in a row where I had eventual unlimited control of the dream yet was not lucid at all, just in control of the dream’s scenario while expressing endless “ability”.

      My family and I are living back in the old large Barolin Street house (which was moved in reality - and my family was actually endangered by people throwing rocks at the assumed empty place a few times and we also had visits from wayward backpackers looking for an empty free place to sleep, all due to a misleading large sign nailed on our fence). Over time, in my dream, two male workers show up in the backyard and are apparently there to refurbish the place. My wife and children are not home when they begin their work. One male talks to me from the roof of the shed for a short time on two occasions.

      As time passes, I realize they are destroying parts of the house, including the back closed porch, before they intend to rebuild much of it. I did not realize that this was the plan - it is very imposing and potentially dangerous. I am also aware that we still have all our possessions in the house and I think about how annoying it would be should I have to dig through the remains of the soon-to-be demolished house to find everything. They have a wrecking crane in the backyard and at one point, I run into the house as it smashes much of the back of the house but I am not directly threatened, though parts of the ceiling fall farther back behind me. In fact, the younger male has to run out of the way at times as well.

      I go back to where the two men are. They seem somewhat cheerful, but I grow more and more annoyed. I angrily “order” them to replace the roof and fix what they have damaged, as I have decided that this will not be happening. They look at me curiously and I make cursing comments about the mental stability of the property owner. One male is more burly than the other, their ages seeming around thirty-something and twenty-something. He starts making rather absurd anti-family (and anti-relationship) comments - as if two people in a relationship and with a family and children is “wrong”. He then complains about me getting unemployment money, which is incorrect (though it does not dawn on me in-dream for some reason), as I have not gotten unemployment or any similar payments, including once in America when I was injured and the plant manager changed the details to the company’s benefit (a typical farce which I did not contest).

      Though he is a bit bigger and more muscular than me, I still manage to punch him twice in quick succession and knock him back over what is left of the back steps. I tell him that I will do it. I wave my hands and focus on what I want and the damage to the house starts to reverse. The previously destroyed extended back roof and its foundation starts to join together and it goes back up, all the pieces floating in midair and eventually aligning in a stronger form than before. Parts of the exterior walls come back together and go back up to restore the structure, yet also improve it. I walk under the restored roof, looking up, seeing that it is more heavy and complex than before, with steel brackets. It is still joining together at this point as I walk under it, but I do not feel at risk as I had in similar in-dream scenarios in the past, even though it would crush me if it fell.

      The older male (still lying on his back but now recovering) looks at me in awe and frustration and says something like, “You mean you just sit here in this house with your family when you can just wave your hands and do anything you want?" I am not sure how to respond (this may be a play on how my supposed intelligence stays "invisible” to the majority - though the “invisibility” seems to work “automatically” as well - though I am still not sure of the “Source”), but I do not want them back at any point. Marrying my beautiful dream girl and having a family, after all, was what I wanted in reality since earliest memory. Looking at the two stunned men, I do not know what else I could possibly want…except to be away from infantile mainstream philosophy and the infinitely irritating dominant culture.
