Dreamed about being at some sort "ocean river". It wasn't really a river because it was located in the ocean with the only thing separating it from the ocean is a loose wall of brown rocks. The water was a bright blue and it was daytime. There were many people in the "river" floating along it in inner tubes. The river lead into many brown caves. I don't remember exactly how the insides of the caves looked like. I went into a bathroom in the dream.

The first thing I can remember about this dream is that there is heavy rain. My brother and I are in the living room debating who will get the door for the pizza, he rings the doorbell and I think damn, i really need to tip this guy heavy for delivering in the rain! I sign him a $4 tip and then the scen cuts to me driving down the street with my brother. I see my hands and count six fingers and shout I'm dreaming! my body feel heavy and U try to tell my brother I'm dreaming but before I can I wake up.

Morning of August 3, 2015. Monday.



This is a recurring concept though always different, that is, my dream rendering the Internet as being on paper and in various notebooks rather than on a computer or visible computer network. This concept has been more prevalent over the past six years or so.

In this dream, I am with a group of people of whom I do not know, though my wife Zsuzsanna is also in the room. I am not sure if it is in an implied residence of ours or a business.

There seems to be some sort of political atmosphere though I suspect it may also relate to finding information to validate certain aspects (such as possible previously unrealized influences) of my childhood dream journals. Somehow, I go to a website by holding a pencil down over the URL that is printed on paper and the “website” appears on another document in the room. This works for about fifteen minutes or so, but the information becomes a bit sparse over time.

Soon, all evidence of the particular “website” seems to vanish as if a portion of the Internet simply disconnected all public servers solely due to someone using it after a presumed long public hiatus. I get a very vague impression that it was a website used to store hidden information related to politicians, and someone noticed it was in use and did not want the information to be used publicly. I get a vague impression of a young blonde female, somehow “seeing” her, though more just being aware that she is the only one left watching the server activity, and she seems annoyed and realizes that she must shut the network down.

Of course, this is all metaphorical, as there are no actual computers anywhere, only various documents that apparently teleport from one place to another, or more likely, copy themselves to another location, somewhat like a FAX without the FAX machine, I suppose.

There are a few points of frustration when pressing on a printed URL on a sheet of paper does not seem to work as well as at other times. Also, the resulting paper or documents appear in a hard-to-find location at times (such as behind several files in a filing cabinet), though still in the same room. Sometimes there are only a few lines on them.

Night of August 3, 2015. Monday.



As promised in my last entry, here are five dreams that I have managed to include simple sheet music with online. With the equipment and technology we have presently, I could probably even duplicate each theme fairly faithfully, though we are working on other projects presently.

In this dream (“Never Go to Waikiki Again” from July 5, 1969), the music is more in the background almost like an in-dream afterthought for the most part and coming during the waking process itself (at least in the first version of my dream).

In this dream (“War of the Serpents” from September 11, 1969) the music seems to mostly be performed with a saxophone, xylophone, and an almost inaudible background orchestra that fades in and out unrealistically (that is, for a real-life commercial production).

In this dream (“Things…From Outer Space” from November 7, 1970), the music is somewhat light and “distant” (in this case I made a recording as a child but am not sure where it is located; possibly at a relative’s house).

In this dream (“Them ol’ Glass Jars” from July 12, 1975), the theme is more musical and sung by a girl’s chorus though the glass jar effect gets louder as I get closer to the waking process.

In this dream (“The Legend of Tony Karoni” from June 27, 1976) the included sheet music represents a very limited rendering of the otherwise layered musical speaking (by the bandits) at the end of my dream (which was very vivid to the point of almost being startling). The harmonics are not included here, thus it is only slightly faithful to my dream. In this case, I am also reminded of how “Yellow Submarine” by the Beatles is off-key in the chorus harmonics (where oddly most people do not notice unless they listen more closely) whereas most sheet music versions I have seen (except for one version that is faithful to what is actually sung) utilize only relevant harmonics to the chord, giving it a completely different sound and mood in most cover versions with not a single change in the notes, which makes me automatically cringe after being used to the Beatles version (even though it is off-key).

I had really crappy recall tonight probably because it's my first day back from vacation and I wasn't able to get to sleep until a lot later than my normal time, but I did get one small dream fragment.

I was in a room that looked like my bedroom in the house I lived in before I moved. It had a hardwood floor and bare white walls. My brother and dad were there too. I think they were talking about having to clean up the room. I seemed to just ignore them and look around the room until they started to get angry that I wasn't helping. I noticed that there were large stacks of paper and random junk on ones side of the room, and on the other side there were lots of bikes flipped over so they rested on there handlebars and seats. I think there was more to the dream, but I can't remember any more.

At first i was having maple story dreams. I woke up than went back to sleep like 2 or 3 times after each maple story dream. They were short though and i was accomplishing some quests and getting rewards.

Next was an odd non lucid/ lucid dream. I was going with my mom to a pay less store, even though she doesn't like to go to pay less anymore. While we were there i was hoping that i could find some cute shoes while my mom looked for shoes for my grandma. Anyways, I don't recall how but after looking around and talking to a few people i ended up somewhere else. I was in a college where supposedly my old high school friends were showing me what they did now. My little brother was there too but as a child. He looked 8 or 6 and was telling me about something funny about what happening around us. After all that hullabaloo i ended up going inside someones apartment. There was this girl who looked like someone i knew from high school. She was big and wearing only a bra and a black thong saying how she wanted to have it and that she was ready. She went to some room with two people than i decided to go out the wall or the window because i didn't want to get caught up in their plans.

I flew to a window where i saw a lady i use to work with. She was with a person who looked like her mom and they were talking. As I was flying i was trying to get her attention by saying that we were in the dream world. I drifted away from her though and appeared out of no where i a room where a sort of invisible yet apparent, hairy guy said he wanted to have it with me. But i said no and shouted for dawn or eye. After that he said that he would try another time than the scene shifted. I ended up in the air flying holding a giant graham cracker. I was flying while looking down at that somewhat cartoon looking ground.
As I was flying i thought what if i could dream up jade's characters. But instead this annoying dc came and tried catching me. I saw it as a game of tag and was flying all around the sky to get away from it. But at the last minute i decided to land. There i met a few little girls who were interested in the show Steven universe. We talked about Stevens height than sang the theme song even though i was somewhat off at first. Than i woke up.

Remembering Dawn

First i was talking with my brother and cousin about maple story and than after that i ended up being inside my house with a dc girl that was interested in me. For some reason it felt like we were together but than my mom came and mentioned something about the hundreds of pairs of green and brown boots she brought home that were stacked near the bathroom. I became lucid than instead of semi lucid and remembered,as i watched the dcs fiddling around, about Dawn. I went downstairs and heard my older brother and cousin talking about how everyone is getting on maple story again. I knew Dawn wouldn't be in there since they were there even if that was his spot than went to another room. He was laying on the bed and appeared to be younger.

I got onto the bed slowly since he was sleeping than apologized for waking him up when he opened his eyes. He was wearing something black with a wire on his neck and i asked him what it was. He said he hadn't seen me in a long time and was glad to see me and that he got into a incident where something went wrong and now he he had to where that. I sai "Ohh" than touched the circle black remote like thing and pushed it away so i wouldn't hit it by mistake. He than mentioned how he was surprised that i wasn't laughing I said " Of course i wouldn't laugh at you." than put my face closer to the blanket on the bed trying to hide my smile. "I'm smiling because i'm nervous" I told him. I was like "Oh great. Now hes gonna think i'm laughing."After that i looked at him and felt bad for his neck so i kissed his neck to show that i cared. He laughed a bit after that than i woke up.

Parakeets

I was non lucid inside a bus with lots of people around my age. Some guy made space for me and i was grateful since it was packed. Than when we got off i ended up inside my house where i was serving myself dinner. As I was doing that my brothers were talking with a friend of theirs. Than blah blah blah. don't feel like writing the rest but in the end i ended up on the stairs looking at my birds in separate cages. I tried to put them back but got distracted when i noticed our old green parakeet Pauli in the cage.

I was in the ocean. I started to gradually gain lucidity as I decided to dive down as far as I could. The water started to become darker as I went deeper. There were creatures swimming past me as I went, but I didn't take time to notice what they were. I did notice a blue whale swim under me. Those are tough to miss! Eventually, it was completely dark. I could still feel water rushing around me as creatures were swimming past. It was all very vivid.

The dream scene changed to a high tech cave cove above water. I saw a computer where one of my co-workers was sitting. I approached the computer and he left it for me as if it was mine. I realized that this was an opportunity to teleport. I decided declared to the dream that I wanted to teleport back to the ocean. I boarded a boat that was docked in the cove and moved it out of the cave. I got the idea to go swimming again and jumped off the boat into the water. The water felt perfectly realistic as I swam around. An African American girl suddenly appeared. I guess I was in her way. I woke up.

I remember I was driving to the college that my mom works at, but I got lost on the freeway fairly quickly. As I lost sight of familiar roads, the dream gave way to these weird roads made out of rusted metal with high guard rails on each side. They did weird dreamlike things like go straight up, turn, curl and even move.

It was like a platformer game, except you played it with your car. I managed to get through and arrive in some kind of city. I was happy because I found that the college that I was trying to get to was actually just a few blocks away from where I parked, so I guess I had wound up getting there after all.

...

The next thing I knew, I was in a back alley. Some kids from my neighborhood showed up and they wanted to fight. Manei appeared behind me and started watching. One of them said that he knew Choi Kwan Do and he started kicking me. I went to block but for some reason my usual dream-super-martial-arts weren't working. Manei said she was holding them away from me. (WTH Manei?!)

No reason to fight. I pulled into third person and I had to do this quickly. I turned away from them. I then changed my face, making my mouth cut wider, like the Joker. I gave myself rows of sharp, yellow teeth and made my eyes glow. My eyes also seemed to be emitting some kind of smoke or energy trail. I didn't consciously add this, but I liked it.

I made myself turn around and snarled at them. My mouth hung open and a long syrpent-like tongue licked drool and blood off my face. The kids all ran and screamed. I remember one of them peed his pants, and while I was in third person, it zoomed in on his pants as he peed in them. Too funny.

I changed my face back to normal and went back inside of my body. Manei was gone and Jonathan was leaning agianst a dumpster in the alley smoking a cigarette. He said something to me but I can't recall what it was. I showed him a drawing of the face that I made to scared. Manei re-appeared and Jonathan ran off.

...

Manei was really upset with me for some reason. Apparently getting beat up by those kids in the back alley was a dream that she had created. She wanted me to lose so that I could be hurt and she could take care of me when it was over and she could have a cute/romantic moment with me. That's why she took away my fighting abilities.

I had to explain to her how that was actually really kind of a dick thing to do when you think about it. She realized the error of her ways and started crying and hugging me. I wasn't mad at her though. I realized that I really liked the idea of just morphing myself into a demon/monster and scaring the opposition away whenever there is someone who wants to fight, and if it hadn't been for that happening, I might never had that idea. It would save more time and there wouldn't be so many fights in my dreams.

We decided we would just go get ice cream. But a little kid pointed to us and said that he recognized us and wanted us to show off our powers. I flew up into the air and she started dancing. (That's a power?) I then thought to stabilize while I was flying and rubbed my hands together and told myself that the dream wouldn't end.

After that we started walking to the ice cream shop. The dream felt strangely familiar as though I had been in this exact spot before. Maybe it was from another dream. Manei said something about wanting me to wear white instead of blue and black because it would make me look more like the hero. She said something about wanting me to be the little hero of the dreamworld.

This was actually a theme we kind of explored very early on, but in reverse. I tried to change Manei into something that she did not want to be, and the moral of the dream was that I shouldn't try to control her and make her be something she didn't want to be. Now she was trying to do the same thing to me. I had to remind her of this, and that if we are to recognize each other as equals, we must not try to be controlling over the other.

I don't remember us actually getting our ice cream though.

...

There was a repeat of the flying part, but I was in a garage. Marcus was analyzing my dream powers and he had two little cuffs around my feet to analyze how the fire works. This went on for a minute as I kept stabilizing and reality checking. I asked him if I could stop. He said he had gotten all the data he needed and let me down.

I was sitting with my friend in his house, and we were watching TV. There was some kind of action movie. Suddenly we were both sucked into the movie. His role changed to villain, and my role was a cop. At first we wanted to find out what's going on, so we sat in one car and drove around the city.

It looked like a mix of a real city my friend is living in, New York and in some places Hongkong. There was no big change in people's appearance. Suddenly, another car appeared and villains started to shoot at us from it. Friend gave me his phone, and I started to check what can I do with it.

I pressed a button, and everything moved in slow motion. There was a weird menu, with "Skills" section, and "Press (C) button". We both could see it. I tried to open it, and I did it. There were options to: "Upgrade weapon skills", "Upgrade driving skills", "Upgrade melee skills" and "Upgrade health". I have chosen to upgrade driving skills, and our car was moving so quick that we easily outrun enemies.

However, the speed was so high that I just fallen out of the car through a window. It made me mad, I ran for a while and stolen a motorbike to chase my friend. He also changed his vechicle - he also chosen a motorbike, though much better than mine.

I was chasing him on the streets. People gave us no attention. Once he quickly made a turn, while I drove on a ramp, and flied high to the sky. I decided to change my situation, brought back the menu and teleported to one of the streets. Luckily, there was a military helicopter just waiting for me. Finding the villain was just a matter of time, and when I found him, I shot him down with a rocket. Then I landed.

Suddenly with friend we were both back at his house. We turned the TV off, and decided to leave the building. His family appeared. It was dark and cold evening outside. I forgotten that I have my jacket left inside, and went back to take it. Then I realised that for some reason I had two jackets with me. I took them both, sat on a motorbike and drove back to my house.

When I reached my destination, I parked the motorbike, entered the building and went to a living room. For some reason, my teacher was sitting there and reading a newspaper. My sisters were there too, but they weren't giving the teacher any attention. Suddenly the teacher spoken: "I saw your article. Congratulations!". This felt somehow weird, as I weren't writing anything for a newspaper.

I just left the room, went to a kitchen, and saw another of my friends. He was holding a baby in his hands, and said "Let's go for a walk!". We went to the streets, and moved through darkness. The friend gave me the baby, and then I decided that it would be best if I went back house. And so I did, the friend continued on his way.

When I entered my house, my older sister appeared. She was mad at me because I took the baby.

Pikmin 2 was one of my favorite games of my childhood. Sure the original Pikmin is a classic, but the second one just ups the antie in every category. Better graphics. More to do. More enemies. Usually I completely stop dreaming about games once I stop playing them. I've pretty much given up Minecraft completely and as such I no longer have any of those minecraft-themed dreams. This game however, seems different in that regard. I stopped playing it years ago but it still comes back in my dreams from time to time. I feel like I dream of this game a lot more than I care to mention, though I must get the memories of the game mixed up with the actual game.

I recall landing in a new, undiscovered hub world. The world was very green and organic with lots of ferns, mossy rockts and water hazards. Kind of the same vibe as perplexing pool/distant spring. I had a full balanced party of pikmin and for some reason there were white and purple pikmin onions.

I recall it being rather small. There were lots of 'treasures' I needed to get. I remembered one of them was a screw, and another was an integrated circuit chip. But there were also lots of difficult enemies. (In the game, the treasures are man-made items.)

There seemed to be a lot of hard enemies and the world started to give me a creepy vibe. Then it turned out that ghosts were enemies. (In pikmin, whenever you defeat an enemy, a ghost rises up from them and fades.) Some of my pikmin died, but then I found out I could whistle and control my pikmin ghosts. (When Pikmin die, they produce ghosts that fade too.) but in this version, the ghosts didn't fade and you had to use them to fight.

I found a dungeon entrance as the day was coming to an end and remember thinking that I didn't recall this area ever being in the game before but 'remembered' that I had installed a mod for the game that added more areas.

I went into the dungeon. The first floor was made entirely of sand, with a few water hazards and some easier enemies. I began to clear it out. My ghost pikmin had reverted to normal pikmin. Everything seemed to be going okay until a Man-At-Legs boss appeared. Though he wasn't normal. He had this big metal eye shaped thing on him and he had two guns rather than one. He could also project force feilds.

I thought about something that I had made in LittleBigPlanet. But my thoughts returned to the game. I remembered this was my favorite boss, but he was also pretty easy if you knew how to fight him. I pulled my regular strategy and even with his upgrades, he was no match for me.

I found the gate to the next floor. The game said that I was now on floor 6. Weird. It was a metal dungeon theme now, and it was dark. There were no enemies on this floor, just lots of loot. That was, until I found a raging long legs. I fought him off too, but he killed one of my commanders in a single hit.

I then found the next gate and went to the next floor. This was floor 13.1. It was a typical dirt theme with some big stones. There was a blue empress bulblax that was really hard to fight. So many bosses! And weird variations of bosses that were harder. I forgot what happened after this.

I recall a lucid where I was fighting Wolverine, like the comic book character in the front yard of my house. I was semi lucid and I was fighting using my blades to block his claws, but he kept regenerating.

...

Somehow related to this was a dream about Marcus. he had built this silver suit that sort of looked like an Iron Man suit only it had a big cannon/light in the middle of the forehead rather than the head. He was flying in this suit above a near-future looking city in an intense rain/thunderstorm.

Then King Gidorah came out of the ocean and the two started fighting. I was watching the fight in third-person. Though I was also standing on a peir a long way away from the fight.

The cannon in his head started charging and these radiator panels folded out. He shot this giant energy ray that knocked Gidorah back right through the center of the city destroying all the skyscrapers and basically cutting the entire city in half.

I don't remember as much as I'd like to. For all I know, this morning when I went to get breakfast I grabbed a glass and wondered how was it not broken. Until I soon realized that it was just a dream. And in that dream, all the glasses fell down from the cupboard and broke on the floor. And I was just in a shock wondering what the hell can I do now.

I'm in the living room and everything inside looks dim as if no sunlight was out. I then teleport and I find myself outside not too far from the house. I got off from the ground and see the sky is murky green. I began figuring I must be dreaming and scan the entire area to see some oddities. However not long the scene changes taking my lucidity a long with it.

After a couple of other dreams I appear in my father room. The bed was not in it's usual spot and was instead hanged on the wall. Look very interesting to sleep like this, as I climbed on to it I soon discover that the bed had holes on the other side that would've made me fall. I take all the blankets off one side of the bed to confirm that only one side has holes and the other did not. The scene changes and I am place in a broken down building with another person that looks like a Tekken character.

The water felt more heavy and my line of sight had this window in front of it. This made it difficult to see, I become lucid due to this and tried to remove it. I ended up opening the window which made everything look half and half. The character started becoming bugged and appear to have 3 look a likes. None of them were moving and before I could build up more awareness in the dream I wake up. Lucidity Time: 14 seconds
