    1. Been a While

      by , 08-07-2012 at 09:24 PM
      But 2 interesting dreams I have to post, one could make a good movie.

      1st one(could be a movie). Involves two high ranking crime bosses in a big city, either New York or Chicago, one is a man(looking like my friend JP) the other is raven haired pretty woman. These bosses were meeting but both were secretly carrying a gun, planning to kill the other. They start talking but the talks go sour quickly and one pulls out a gun and so does the other. They shoot each other at the same time.

      The police arrive and one detective comments "They both shot each other, that's that or that's final", something like that.

      Suddenly an alarm is ringing and JP wakes up next to the other crime boss. They are now living in some type of limbo afterlife that you go to when you both kill each other. They are married and seem happy, neither remembers their past lives. There are no other people in this world though. They live in a large California house and spend their days as typical husband and wife, making breakfast, reading, watching TV, having sex. Months pass and eventually JP starts getting bored of this typical life. I don't remember anything past this, or if the dream ended. My idea is he goes out of the house and begins to discover the truth of his past life and his "wife." This really could be a good movie.

      2nd dream

      This one was enjoyable, but then became rather scary. It started with me at my old house, I had an ex over and we were just hanging out as friends. One thing leads to another though and we end up making love several times that night. It was very realistic and I'm surprised it wasn't real as usual with my sex dreams.

      We are sleeping in bed and suddenly her boyfriend comes in, I hear him fumbling in the drawer next to the bed where I keep a handgun and I grab my ex and we run into the bathroom. There is large walk-in closet and it is dark. We run into the walk-in closet, I lock the door and put my finger up to my lips telling her to be quiet so he won't hear us. I climb up in case he tries to shoot through the walls. It seems like its working because I hear him say "Did you guy's disappear or where did you go?" My ex however thinks she can reason with him and start to open the door, I tell her no, please begging her not to open it. But she thinks he won't hurt her.

      She steps out and I view from a safe area, she puts up her hands at first and tries to talk but as he points the gun at her, she pulls out her own hidden piece, a small auto handgun that you would expect a girl to carry. He shoots her through the chest, I yell "NOOOOOOOO!" and grab her small gun. I don't remember exactly what happens but I think I fired a few shots and scare him out of the bedroom. I lock the bedroom door and go for a shotgun that I keep next to my bed, I load it and walk to the door, making sure the safety is off. I open the door slowly and see him just to the right of the door frame, he can't see me yet. He says something like "Come on gun-boy!" I pull the trigger but I forgot to cock the shotgun so there is no shell in the chamber, I quickly cock it.

      He runs out of the house and eventually we are in an old west town square type of thing, I shoot him with the shotgun through the chest and stomach, dropping him instantly. I run up and kick the handgun away from him and prepare to kill him.
      Suddenly some western cowboys walk up or ride in on horses and are pointing revolvers at me, I'm not sure if they were lawmen or partners of his, more likely partners I think. I tell them "This don't concern you, he killed my love" but they have multiple guns drawn on me and tell me to drop the shotgun. One of them, a doctor, runs up and places something on his wounds which quickly stops the bleeding and then starts removing the pellets, a rather gruesome surgery I remember. The dream ends here, very interesting, sad and scary, but by far one of the most diverse dreams I've had.

    2. My first 3 part dream recall

      by , 12-05-2011 at 03:45 PM
      This is amazing that I can recall this much but I can remember chunks of 3 dreams I just had.

      The first
      I'm at my Aunt's house and I remember it started upstairs, me and some other people playing playstation 3. We come downstairs and my Aunt keeps asking what we were doing, I swear to her we were just playing PS3 but she keeps saying "are you sure?" as if we were doing something else and trying to cover it up. I mention we were playing MGS4 kind of in an aggravated tone, because that is all we were doing.
      I also remember there were these 2 asian girls there and I was showing them how to play poker and stuff. I remember one part where one of the girls is playing online and she flops a set(3 of a kind) I tell her just to check but as I'm moving my finger to the mouse she tries to click comething and we accidentally hit fold. She gets very sad and I give her a hug, I tell her next time to just check and let someone else bet, then to raise as a trap. I also remember noticing she had a lot of the same music as me on her computer, one album in particular was Nine Inch Nails "Ghosts" and I remember thinking this must be a popular album in Japan for her to have it.
      I remember a later part with one of them sitting on the couch doing something and my mom commenting "she's just a kid" and I say, something like "She's Japanese, girls in Japan do things you wouldn't believe at her age." She wasn't quite a kid though I think she was probably around 18 based on the dream.
      I also remember this being a really nice fancy house with a full bar in one corner. I remember thinking to offer the girls a drink, and remember seeing Oban 14 Year old (single malt scotch whisky) on the counter. Probably no relevance other than I want to try this whisky and haven't had a chance yet, and it's also known for being expensive, perhaps overpriced.

      The Second
      I'm in a different house with my mom and sister this time. I remember two dogs and one came over and put his head in my lap, then another would come for a while and do the same. This made the first dog(my real dog) jealous and he comes over and butts out the other dog and lays down his head in my lap. I mention this to my sister and pat the dog.

      Then I remember my mom talking to some people and telling them I don't have job. I walk over and say "I'm actually a professional poker player, nice to meet you." and shake the first guys hand. When I turn to shake the other guy's hand(a black guy) I realize my hand is bandaged for some reason. 3 fingers are bandaged and something is tying them all together which makes it difficult to maneuver the hand. So I reach out to shake his hand and he gives me a weird look upon seeing my hand at first. Strangely enough, when he reaches out to shake my hand he only has a thumb and a blackened stump(like it was burned or something). First he can't reach because the arm is shorter, and I don't think he had a palm. So I reach out and grasp his stump and shake it.

      The third
      This may have been in the same house, but it was in the backyard outdoors in a two-story deck type thing. We are on the top floor playing volleyball(with kickballs) with the people on the bottom floor. I remember one of my friends being "tagged out" or something because of something I did, and I apologize to him, and step out from behind the sliding door and take his place on the deck promising to do a good job. Before I was only occasionally hitting balls from behind the door. I miss my first few but then remember in gym class my teacher taught us how to hit a volleyball and I use this technique and manage to hit the next few. Finally, I remember being downstairs and seeing Michael Jordan playing with us. Someone throws a basketball out and Jordan says something about basketball and how it was a coincidence that someone threw that out while he was there. Then someone knocks the basketball away and someone throws out another one. I mention to Jordan how this was "on purpose" and he says the first wasn't, but the second one probably was.
      Thats it for this dream.

      I remember something from an earlier dream too with Michael J. Fox and I was commenting how short he was. I said he was like 5'3 or something, but he was actually in the dream talking to me.

      I'm glad to see my dream recall is improving, probably because I woke up 15 minutes before the alarm clock was supposed to ring and had time to think about it.

    3. First lucid in a while(WILD, short dream)

      by , 11-25-2011 at 04:48 AM
      This is cool, my first lucid in a while. And a WILD at that.

      So I was woken up early this morning because my baby cousins were making a lot of noise, I finally manage to get some peace and quiet and drift off to sleep.

      As I'm falling asleep I get these amazing hallucinations. It feels like I'm flying towards a colored(orange,red yellow) wall with patterns and going through it to more walls with patterns. Pretty cool.

      So I begin the dream in the same room, same house and my little cousin runs up to me and keeps telling me to wake up. He says "your mom told me to pour water on your face," and pours warm water on me much to chagrin.

      I soon realize it's a dream and wish this to become an action-oriented Star Wars themed dream. I become jedi knight Kyle Katarn and march to Vader's castle, which is visible from the window in my room.

      As I enter I see Luke Skywalker, from "A New Hope" and he's on his way to fight Vader, but is about to be ambushed by stormtroopers. He's marching up a walkway, about to enter a door. I yell out to warn him, "Luke!" but this only alerts the stormtroopers and they brutally gun him down. I scream out "NOOO!" like the movies, and then they start firing at me. Luckily I have my trusty lightsaber and reflect their shots. There were a bunch of stormtroopers, hundreds at least and they were firing so many shots. I remember being completely suprised by there being so many. I manage to escape.

      I come back to the house and I ask someone if I can storm Vader's Castle directly by myself. He tells me it'll be hard to do it by my self, but I think I can anyways. I remember looking out the window and seeing the castle, it was dark and foreboding.
      Then someone knocks on my door and the dream is over.

    4. Awesome Jedi Dream

      by , 11-23-2011 at 03:41 AM
      Had a cool dream last night. Posting late so I'll tag it as a fragment.

      First I was in an airport, flying somewhere with my mom. I walked through the terminal trying to find the correct gate or plane. I got on this plane going to LA as I thought it was a connecting flight to where we were going.
      I then thought, oh no what if I got on the wrong plane! I remember being scared, and wondering if the company would reimburse my ticket when we landed.
      Fortunately the plane stopped at another gate after taxi and this led to another plane,I remember being really relieved. I took the exit on the side instead of getting on the real LA plane and saw my mom there waiting.

      I'm not sure if this counts a second dream, it felt like a different part to the first one. In this dream I was a jedi, I was actually Anakin Skywalker which I discovered later. I remember one part where I was battling some guys with blasters and was blocking their shots. Then I remember being mad at my mom for some reason and pointed at her angrily with my lightsaber(which was off). She said "Don't put that thing at me!" in a very angry voice.
      Later I heard my master was in danger, I kind of made up this situation so this dream was sort-of lucid. As I was running I had a communicator and kept trying to contact Obi-Wan calling out "General Kenobi, General Kenobi!" and finally "MASTER!" because I thought he was in danger or hurt or something.
      So I come up to this shallow pond with two kids in the middle, it looked like they were in trouble. As I approach them they say "your master is over there." I turn around and see Obi-Wan in his Jedi robes waving to me. I say "thanks, but I'm gonna help you guys first." They say something like you'll never make that jump, but I use a force jump and grab on a tree and reach the middle of the pond where they are stuck. I grab a hold of them and start swimming back to the shore. Then my alarm clock rings and rudely wakes me up!

    5. The 2 part dream

      by , 11-21-2011 at 01:00 AM
      It's just a fragment but I can remember two parts to this dream.

      In the first I'm at my Aunt and Uncle's house. I take a shower and use 2 bars of soap because the first one has some weird smell to it.
      Later my Aunt asks me why I used 2 different soaps(she calls it detergent for some reason) and 2 different shampoos. I tell her why I used the 2 soaps(saying one had some tinge to it), but say I only used one shampoo. She nods sarcastically but appears unconvinced that I only used one shampoo.

      Next dream: I'm walking in my high school cafeteria and pass an old friend Harrison. He calls out my name "Daniel!" I turn and realize he is talking to another Daniel, he usually calls me Danny.
      Everyone sitting next to him laughs and I tell them I noticed as soon as I turned to face their table. "You know he never calls you that," one of them said.
      I see everyone at the table and finally realize a girl I used to date is with them as well, Megan.
      I walk up to Megan and say " I didn't know you had this lunch period, I haven't seen you in forever." I give her a hug and remember holding her very closely. I then take a look at her and say "you look good."

      Later me and Harrison are in some kind of theme park, we're walking across a bridge and the Jurassic park theme song is playing. I hum it as we walk across the bridge, remembering a scene in the movie which never actually happened. But in this "Scene" the main character is drifting down the river and the 2 kids are complaining that the music speakers aren't working, and he says something like "we have all the music we need on this river" referring to the sounds of nature. The theme song then played in the movie. But of course this whole scene never happened.
      The dream ends.

    6. Haven't posted in a while, so here's a nice long one

      by , 11-13-2011 at 02:12 AM
      I remember this quite well.

      I wake up and walk to the kitchen to get some water, I remember on the way that my Mom, sister, best friend and maybe my Dad are visiting my apartment. I reach the kitchen and notice the door which usually is locked is open. In real life this door contains the water heater and AC units. I look behind the door and notice instead of the AC units I see another beautiful apartment.
      As I walk in I notice its wood-floored spacious and beautiful. At first I thought this was part of our apartment as I notice a table with chairs around it where my mom and sister were eating dinner last night.

      I then notice people sitting on the couch watching TV and realize this is someone else's apartment that the door leads to. I quickly walk back to my apartment and once back I encounter an old friend from a couple years ago. I ask him what he is doing here and he tells me he lives in the apartment next door. I notice his sister is sitting on my couch watching TV.

      I seem to remember that this dream was actually a continuation of an earlier one where my mom and sister had left my apartment and I was taking a nap. I remember them saying they were going out, but I can't remember much of the earlier dream. My best friend also went with them and I remember seeing his laptop in my old room mates empty room.

      Anyways, I talk to my other friend for a while and grab a zip-loc bag filled with snacks(Some type of sweet chips) then I think I hear a knocking with my Dad's voice. I reach the door, saying "hold on, hold on." When I open it, there is no one there but the apartment across the hall is closing their door, so I guess it was someone knocking on there side.

      I notice it's snowing outside so I decide to go for a walk. This part gets weird. I 'm walking and its snow everywhere, I'm reminded of the song, Winter Wonderland. As I walk I notice people sitting on their balconies? The layout of the apartments is all different and the balconies are facing me and don't have rails on them.

      I pass 2 groups of people, the first are playing spin the bottle on their balcony. The second are playing some strange game with an animal. At first it looks like a polar bear, and I'm concerned about how they got a polar bear. As I get closer though I realize its some type of large bird, like a duck.

      They are rolling a dice then telling the bird to move that many spaces on a sheet of ice. As I pass by eating my snack, the bird tries to follow me. One of the guys stops it and blocks it from moving with his foot.

      I think the dream ends here.

    7. One dream I can remember

      by , 11-05-2011 at 10:36 PM
      As usual there is more to this dream, but I can only remember the tail end before I woke up.

      It began with a false awakening, I remember there was a dream before then I woke up into this one.
      In the first dream I barely remember a small puppy dog was in my bed. I loved this dog and he was playing in my bed with
      me before I fell asleep and had the false awakening in the dream realm.

      I am in a strange house, I briefly recall that my Dad and sister live in this house, the previous dream took place here, and I'm visiting them.
      I feel really tired and keep falling back asleep. Finally, I force myself to get out of bed. I feel bad for sleeping
      so late. I look around and notice its late afternoon, 5-6 based on the lighting. Nobody is in the house and I remember walking around thinking everyone left.

      Later I'm at a grocery/convenience store with my mom and sister. I am standing in front of a freezer trying to pick some
      ice cream. I decide on blue bell Almond bar, but they only come in packs of 4. I see a premium almond coated chocolate ice-cream bar for 1.99 and decide on that. I can remember some comment my sister made about me picking the most expensive one.

      I walk to the line where my mom is standing and throw the ice cream bar down on the conveyor to be checked out.
      As I'm standing in line with my mom, my sister walks into line with us. She walks past the guys behind us, 2 men dressed
      in civil war army uniforms. My sister salutes one guy and makes some comment about him being a cop.

      I correct her looking at the guy and saying "He's an officer, Army right?" I ask him. He responds yes, and tells me that
      the uniform is real civil war era, he thinks. He tells me he doesn't know for sure, but his guess is civil war. I tell him
      I agree, that I have seen army uniforms before and it definitely looks to be civil war era. I can't remember his rank for sure, but he was officer, captain or higher.

      The dream ends here

      I wish I could remember more, this dream was at least 3 times longer, but my dream recall still needs work. I'm glad I could remember this much. I just know that there was more before the false awakening/top dream layer.
    8. Dave Chappelle was my close personal friend in this dream

      by , 10-31-2011 at 06:06 PM
      It started with me, my room mate and a couple other faceless friends. We are watching a Dave Chappelle comedy stand-up special. I mention off-hand that I know Dave in real life and he is a pretty cool guy.
      Dave makes a joke about kicking someone's ass and I mention that he's not like that at all, and is actually a nice guy. My room mate asks "yeah, but he would probably whoop your ass in real life." I agree saying "probably."

      Later I visit Dave and he is with 2 of his friends in a class, wood-floored apartment. I tell Dave about what happened earlier and he asks what I said about his routine. I mention the ass-kicking joke and he asked what I told my friends. I tell him that I said he could probably kick my ass in real life. He laughs and I also mention that I told them he's not like that in real life, and that he's actually a really nice guy.
      He then asks why I didn't bring my room mate and friends, one of Dave's friends comments "Where are your best friends(or why didn't you bring your best friends?" Which I think means something, since in real life these people are far from my best friends.
      There was some more but I can't remember enough.

    9. One Fragment

      by , 10-29-2011 at 11:15 PM
      This dream was longer, and there were others, but I can barely remember those from my long sleep last night.
      I do remember this one in particular because it was right before I woke up and was adventurous which I like in my dreams.

      I was with a group of creatures out of a horror film. We had a vampire in our presence, though he was on our side, we also had some type of small ape-like creature, who I think was also my sister, and one other person in our party I think. We were moving across this vast landscape like something out of Van-Helsing. Mountains, and darkness and emptiness.
      I remember we were sitting in some car-caravan type thing and I was telling the ape-creature about some show I saw on television about a man who gives out chimpanzees to people for a day. They get to dress the chimpanzee any way they want, I remember my sister saying she would like to see that. I said I would find it for her.
      Then we went down a dark pathway into an underground area, as we are going down I remember only the vampire was inside our caravan, me and the ape were outside.
      As we're descending we see a priest, but as we get into the darkness in the cave the guise is broken and the pries is actually some type of vampire-eating creature. I also think this creature had the same weaknesses as a vampire, thus why he could only break the guise in darkness.
      The vampire is the first to say "I don't think so" as the disguise comes off, like he knew it wasn't a priest. I spring into action looking for a weakness, the creature, which is like a hideous bat type thing(gargoyle), is making a cross at me with his fingers, I get the feeling this was for protection from our crosses(makes sense right?)
      I reach into my case and pull out a flare bomb, pull the fuse and fling it at the creature. It immediately explodes into flames and rushes at me still on fire. I then pull a cross bow from the case which has a cross on it.
      The creature recoils in pain.
      Here the dream ends.

    10. Many dream fragments and one false awakening(possible dream foresight)

      by , 10-28-2011 at 09:59 PM
      I slept late today and had many dreams which I cant remember.

      One involved a movie based on Oedipus Rex with Cartman from South Park playing the king, I remember commenting that he did a good job.

      Another involved me talking to a professor about a research study I have been deliberating(I remember more of this so I'll discuss it)

      I walk down to his desk after class, everyone is leaving the room. I say "Can I ask you a question Dr. Jones?" He responds "How can I answer that question with no?" this is his way of saying go ahead, he is a very open professor and has never turned down a question. I began telling him that I am considering running a hypothetical experiment about the effects of psychedelics in depression. I explain to him that there was a study conducted on LSD, which found it can treat depression(don't know if this is entirely true). I mention that there have only been a handful of studies and that this is a novel research area.
      He is listening, interested and makes helpful comments throughout. I finally mention the difference between my study and previous ones, I intend to use a psychedelic which is found naturally in the human body, dimethyltyrptamine. I say "I want to use a psychedelic found in your body" and point to his chest, he suddenly gets a look of immense interest, but before I can explain the dream ends.

      I had another fragment which I believe proceeded the false awakening. I remember that I had a party in my new apartment, it looked different(even though in reality the only difference is my room mate moved out). I walk into my room and pick up my phone, it says missed call and when I click on it it says "so many." As if I missed many calls and it can't display them all. It then flashes a message to connect to the computer to retrieve these missed calls. I vaguely remember searching around the room for the cable to connect it. Then

      I hear a knocking, "Oh, that must be room mate coming to pick up his last few boxes." I get up in a hurry and am rushing towards the door, suddenly I realize that I'm not awake. Then I actually wake up.

      Here's the strange thing, I knew he was coming to pick up the boxes, but about 20 minutes after this false awakening I actually heard a knocking on my door. Lo and behold it was my room mate, here to pick up the last boxes. It may be considered a dream foresight(I don't believe it), because it happened very shortly after the dream. More likely it was just a happy coincedence
    11. Began in my Aunt's house

      by , 10-25-2011 at 08:03 PM
      It began in my Aunt's house. There were 2 babies running around, one from her family and one from somebody else's. One of the babies peed on a carpet and the other baby walked over and pointed it out to us.
      I then remember a country singer came over and was talking to us about something, he had come over to our house to visit us for some reason. I know there was more to this dream, I remember and earlier part with my Dad there as well.
      I also remember explaining to my Aunt about how margarine was less healthy than butter, I explained the process of how they make margarine(hydrogenation) and how this creates unnatural trans fats which are worse for you than butter.

      The next dream took place immediately after(warning its gruesome and dark). A bit nightmarish, and I'll tag it as such for fair warning.


      A man has a dog and is castrating it (neutering). We are on a dock, looking out over a body of water, I think there was 1 kid with us, probably the man's son. The dog is under no anesthesia and I am sickened by the procedure.

      He cuts off the dog's testicles, whole from the scrotum, with a sharp pocket knife. The dog lays down and appears injured.
      He then takes the scrotum and opens it up and says something like "now you'll find the kittens inside."

      I'm warning you this is really gruesome.

      He then takes the 2 pink testes out of the scrotum and says look "the two kittens are talking to each other," and makes mewing sounds while holding the 2 testicles. I say something like "stop."

      The dog then starts barking and jumping up, I am a bit scared.

      The man says to the dog "hey calm down, stop," or something like that. The dog then manages to bite his arm, the man gets mad and opens the dog's mouth and cuts it from inside its mouth, one end to the other.
      The dream ends, my last image is the dogs mouth and teeth, and the knife cutting his mouth. I wake up considerably frightened.

      That's all I can remember from this morning.

    12. Last Night's dream

      by , 10-25-2011 at 08:05 AM
      I had this dream last night, I'm late to record, here's what I can remember.
      I was in a zombie takeover, the few remaining survivors had gathered in wal-mart. We needed AA batteries for some reason and ammunition for the few guns we had, which I distinctly remember were mine, I provided them.
      A female survivor tells me all the AA batteries in the main battery aisle have been used up. We'll have to sneak some from the front. We quietly walk to the front by the registers, and find one of those battery kiosks. I grab one of the big packs and say something akin to "glad that's over with."
      We then head to the back to get the ammunition, I had to remind her of this and as we're heading to the back of the store, the dream ends.

    13. Restarting my Dream Journal (Disappointed with the new format)

      by , 10-25-2011 at 07:59 AM
      I am restarting my dream journal after about 7 months off, due to neglect. BTW, I hate this new format, I like to have a thread with all my dreams in it, since these journals are mostly for us am I right?
      Anyways,
      2/26/11- Had a dream last night that I met Andrew Zimmern from "Bizarre Foods." He started by telling me some of the places he had been, and we actually did try some bizarre foods. I can't remember what we specifically tried though.
      I do remember as he was leaving he kind of flat out told me that he doesn't like me, I was really shocked. He said I basically asked him too many questions and wouldn't let him talk. As he left I asked him another question saying, this will be my last. I told him I was going to Vietnam in the summer and asked if he could recommend any good restaurants. His reply was "You're going to Vietnam, that'll be a journey."
      End of dream
