Thread: Lawrence's Dreams

[ 2 April 08]

*Probably my favorite dream*

*Recalling a dream from a year ago. It actually wasn’t much of a dream, instead it was the result of a hypnotherapist getting the entire track team to relax and subconsciously improve ourselves. But I didn’t care for track at all, so I went with my own thing while listening to his instructions for relaxing.*

I’m going down an escalator with very yellow, almost Mexican themed walls and green triangles painted on the walls. However, I rush down the escalators uncontrollably to the next floor. Upon turning the corner there’s another escalator, exactly the same as before. *This procedure continues for a number of floors*. I can still hear the therapist and am consciously listening to him. He now he tells us to focus on our event and picture ourselves doing better, getting first, etc. However, I didn’t care so much about that, so instead (I would like to say I focused on trying to transform myself into a wolf, but I can’t say that for certain. All I remember concretely is that there was a bunch of empty black, with a few lights and things.) Now the therapist is waking us up, so I now see the same escalator going up! This again repeats for several floors, but eventually I start getting so annoyed and frustrated by how I can’t calmly ride the escalator, I consciously and willingly focus all of my mental thought on riding it slowly. Very carefully I manage to ride it slowly! As I get to the top, I start hearing a louder and louder metal groaning noise. Like an air-vent or shaft bending or something! I also see the walls disappear off into a bright white light, a guy in a wheel chair passes into it. I start following him in, but get scared from the incredibly loud noise and wake up.

Everyone else around me was still perfectly calm, and there was no more noise upon waking up, it was extremely weird.

[3 April 08]

I’m in a super metropolis of a city! Yet, it reminds me of Seattle. I’m just in a hotel like room, with big glass windows trying to willingly Astral Project.
*Nap later on that day.* I’m driving down to Blockbusters near my house to rent a movie, but the store is closed and it’s night time. However, the back is open (though in real life, the store doesn’t have a “back”) I get a movie then appear into my car. At least, I’m facing backwards backing up and feel as though I’m driving, but don’t recall any actual car. As I start driving back home, over the speed limit, I somehow end up on my bike suddenly. I zoom between two cop cars (there were many of them along the road). I’m almost home then falsely wake up and “realize” that I’m late for a ski trip.

[?]

In the power-Ranger’s flying ship, trying to run into something. I end up running into it from the bottom and now need to escape the plane. The main driver is asleep and appears drugged. He also has an India-Jones appearance to him. Since I’ve been outside the glass window this entire time, I tap on it waking him up. He realizes the need to escape, so he grabs the girl, a bunch of parachutes, hooks up to a bungee and then prays. He jumps out and lands on top of the plane. He crawls to the front of the plane and taps on the window to wake up the guy inside. However, that guy is also him! Upon realizing this, a bunch of drawings start to overlap my vision and I hear clearly “The narcotics must be starting to set in.” The main character behind the windshield then wakes up, then a message and drawing about death appears and I frighten myself awake.

[7 April 08]

I’m following the cast from the show “Scrubs” down a mine cart and end up falling down a natural water slide into a very dark green, duck poop infested water. After swimming through that I end up at an Asian market where I sign in American Sign Language to one guy “You need to make the animals leave!”, the guy agrees. I’m suddenly in a hospital like setting were I’m told that there is a work that goes up your butt and then out your private section.

[9 April 08]

I’m at a party at an apartment; it feels it’s close to my home city, perhaps I’m buying it? A few friends are there, I attempt to play the piano “Kraid” from Metroid. However, I can’t figure it out. Eventually, a kid goes running out with money, presumably my money. In an act of rage I run upstairs tell my little brother what I’m going to do then grab the kid’s arms behind his back. We converse a bit, he hates broccoli and ranch. He’s also wearing a robe as if to go take a shower.

[11 April 08]

My older brother and I are at our computers, I believe he’s playing Some RPG game, as I am too. My little brother and my grandma show up. Something about how our garden is really nasty and not good for growing stuff in because of mushrooms. Next, my older brother gets annoyed by a bunch of bugs flying around him. I take out an ant spray and it does a good job, they make a horribly screeching noise when they die. I do feel a little sympathy. My grandma and I walk outside briefly. Also, at one point, the bug spray does get into the fireplace’s fire, but it’s turned off before it explodes.

[*Recalling an older dream*]

Some place that looks like a subway; I see my sister and give her a big hug. All I remember from there on is trying to become a wolf while running through a street, but then though “Oh wait, I can’t”, even though I was on all fours.

[12 April 08]

I’m in a sewer underground place with a co-worker and I’m doing some magick ritual as she describes it to me, something about chocolate.

[12 April 08]

I was cleaning up a large pile of spinach out front and bees and other assorted flying insects were hanging around it. I wake up after a couple of them pass my car.

[13 April 08]

I’m in a jail compound with an older guy named Derek, I try to AP in a couch I found in an attic. Some claymation like alien prepares himself to kill everyone in this place because of some pressure by another being. I appear downstairs (What’s odd is that I feel as though I’ve seen this next sequence before in this same dream, but don’t recall it specifically) and some big business guy walks in, I come in, and then turn around to see a nun and 2 children come running in and a bunch of money spills onto the floor, I assume it’s mine and pick it up, then realize it’s play money! I go back up stairs and overhear (or mind read) that this old guy (he was the alien) is going to drive a bus into here causing it to all blow up, his reasoning is that this palce is producing radioactive waste, so it needs to be terminated. Then I see something reads “(Some name starting with “R”) Run!” Almost Forest Gump like. But it’s a sign to get out now before it’s too late. I next meet my friend up there and we discuss the mushrooms growing on my hands.

[21 April 08]

I’m working at a fast food joint called “Kidd Valley”, but it’s much nicer looking. At one point I’m in my neighborhood driving and there are many kids present. Now back at Kidd Valley. I’m leaving the store to my car while smoking a cigar and find out that my car has been running this entire time.

[22 April 08]

I’m in some sort of metal-like giant mansion and trying to infiltrate it by hiding in a room. I open the first window I see and jump through it to a gigantic open area, I thought about teleporting in, but that makes too much noise. (That’s what I thought mid-dream) I hide right under a different window; someone opens it up and looks through it for me supposedly. Not seeing anything he closes the window and almost enters through a door. I realize this and stop time, quickly draw a pentagram in air and almost attempt to teleport but wake up.

[2 May 08]

I’m in a great open forest area, trying to get along with nature and bugs, but the bugs still get to me (I don’t like bugs at all!) I’m in the grass in a fixed room or container of some kind. I’m stuck in there, forced to try and get along with the bugs that are there.

[3 May 08]

I’m on a big ship and am leading my grandma through the boat to find my grandpa’s grave. We first take the elevator down as far as it can go, then bombed open a hole in the floor (much like from the game “Zelda” for Nintendo 64). We get down there and my grandma comments about how long it’s been since she’s been here. I place more bombs to open the next floor, and forget that my grandma was too close so I quickly help her back away and guard her from the explosion. Then she comments about some kind of pain and I start to cry, but stay positive and continue down. I meet up with my two brothers and my mom, leaving my grandma behind. We al try to find our way back up to “out rooms” since the elevators are broken. We must find our way up the stairs in this strangely old themed casino boat. We first walk up some extravagant stairs one floor then ask some official looking guy and he tells us the emergency stairs are right outside. As we exit I notice how the water is right to the level I’m on, even though there appears to be a big city down deep underwater. I’m too scared to go out onto the cheap looking deck. However, my older brother easily gets out there and starts going up, my little brother and I hang back at first, then go out and comment on the very dirty water.

[7 May 08]

I’m driving home and am going way over the speed limit down the highway. I go too fast and my car catches this wall and goes literally flying into a lake. This whole time I was in the air just watching the car. I land and believe I can pick up the car out of the water, so I do. I place it on the road next to me and walk out to it then I find someone. We both grab some stones but he motorbikes down the road while I’m on a skateboard. At some point I meet up with this guy asking for my rocks, but I’m missing one and he gets very mad at me.

[12 May 08]

I’m at some airport arrival and a lady who had read my 12th grade English story asked a few questions about it (she really liked it). I try to give her pen back to her, but it ends up that I took one anyway. I then meet up with someone who claims to be someone by the name of “William Wraithe”. We joked for a bit.

[13 May 08]

All I remember is being in a very dark, maybe basement or garage type of room that somehow related to my physics teacher. It ended with me looking for some thin copper wire to test out my machine which I can only assume was my bike powered electric generator.

[18 May 08]

I was waiting in an area like my high school near the band room. There’s a very fancy table of gourmet food all set up. My family and I sit down to eat, but my little brother refuses to eat, while I have a hard time determining what my food is (looks like a square piece of shrimp). Everything there seemed to have a red color to it, as if the source light was red itself. It turns out the food is cold steak with under cooked bacon on top. It was a little spicy too. Apparently we were waiting to eat at a wedding like ceremony.

[19 May 08]

Playing TF2 in real life (same models for sentry gun and the teleporter and I’m defending on a map. The other team advances past my first turret, so I run back to base to see a good deal of people baking some sort of desert item. So I help, but the other team makes it there pretty soon and I talk with some Asian guy about back-packs. Then my co-worker appears and shows me how he was right at something and I was wrong. Then he accidentally puts chips into the empty tomato container, causing the chips to absorb the juice.

[Same night, different dream]

I’m at a school and in a portable with a teacher and 3-4 other kids desperately trying to get out of working. As they come up with more and more ridiculous ways to get out, I just sat and watched the teacher get annoyed. Eventually she walked out and a new teacher came in as she was walking out, I realized that my predictions were correct (I was very excited at predicting the future). Also, one of my friend’s predictions was correct too. I now appear outside and the T.V. school show is running around the school filming, I followed them around a bit until they throw blackberries at me. Then I hear the really annoying commercial that has been playing on the radio I listen to at night and wake up.

[30 May 08]

At first my two brothers and I are at a house where apparently they kill people and feed it to something. And my sister is running the whole operation! As I managed to get more free and wander around the house, some more I find that my sister is surprisingly optimistic about the police raiding her house. Also a dog, which apparently is my friend’s dog although he doesn’t have one, comes along and we escape. Everyone in my family who was in the house get into a car. My cousin’s daughter appears in the car too. Before we leave I try to find the dog because I couldn’t find him. Then I saw him running away. My little brother and I follow him to some crazy redneck’s place with vicious dogs that would kill the dog easily. And this redneck is pointing a gun at my little brother’s and my head. He almost kills my little brother. We back off and watch as the dog runs further into the redneck’s place. We give up hope and start turning around but a big fight (verbal only) breaks out between the redneck and his neighbor. I’m expecting one of them to start shooting eventually. I drive my go-cart off knowing the dog is dead, and my little brother rides his bike.

[6 April 08]

I’m running with some guy in an overcoat who’s being chased by some people. We end up in an ally with nowhere else to go. We also have a blue guy like from the Daft Punk videos and I guess we’re saving him or he’s on our side and there’s another blue guy being held captive on the “chaser’s side”. We enter a cathedral (it’s very dim) and I take the twist ties off of my gun. Right as soon as I finish, the woman chasing us (well, she was chasing us)throws 2 ninja stars at me after yelling “I can’t take it anymore!” in a Russian accent. I dodge the first one then in slow motion (everything’s going slow now) I deflect the 2nd star that was coming at my face with my gun. Then fire off 3 shots: 1 in the left shoulder, 1 in the left ribcage, 1 in the right shoulder. All of the bullets just grazed her (By the way, the gun I used was a black Desert Eagle). Still in slow motion I saw one of the bullets ricochet off her bone and hit the wall behind me and then the casing rolled to my feet. The girl looked up in awe and leaned over onto a table. Time went back up to normal speed. My other teammates and I gathered up all of the casings (they were huge!) And light bulbs are put in them. A poe from Zelda’s twilight princess appears, but since I can’t turn into a wolf I back up a bit till it disappears.

*Prior to this part of the dream I remember something about a concrete structure in a park-like place.*

[12 June 08]

I’m at an arcade-like place and it’s huge! Before that I was on an adventure like story with some other people and we all traveled around. I only remember being at a waterfall and finding 2 rings. It was a very square waterfall coming from a cave-like place, but as we went into the cave it opened p to become some garden of some-sort. It seemed pretty overgrown and had columns like in Greece. After that came the arcade place which was very dim-dark, and labyrinth like. At my first walking around, I found a door that had the Super Mario World ghosts and as I tried to enter it, it turned very fuzzy, Pink and Yellow, then I was forced out. The door was a paradox anyway, since when I walked around it, there was just a continuation of the hallway, not the room you see when looking through it. After that I turned around and found out that I’m on a school field trip or something. So I keep wandering around and this one girl finds me, for some reason I think she wants to hurt me, so I hide behind a pool table, she finds me anyway and just says “Hi!” and walks on. I now find a Russian person, and start beating her in the head with a (laptop?). Since “I knew” that there were terrorists holding us captive. After I saw that I did no damage, we began signing American Sign Language and she forgave me. I now find my friend and talk to him about how he got in here(he had a story all of his own). I now appear into my car and start having what sounds like a choir singing. Upon waking up I realize that the choir I heard was really just a slower version of the song on the radio!

[19 June 08]

I’m in a desert-like place. Well, it’s a city, but one block is desert and inside the ruined stone building is an underground cave where a couple of people are getting ready to perform some act. Upon leaving, there’s a thing that looks fairly human, but I know he’s a kind, and people say hello or “Donkay!” to him as if really butchering the German language. I head back to the desert block and want to sword fight a skeleton that I’ve beaten before. But I lost my sword. I won and my old one broke. It was a very vivid image. I try to steal the skeleton’s sword but he knows of what I did then agree to help look for mine. I lose interest and head back outside, that’s when another skeleton starts walking toward me, but this one looked like an old grandma and had grey hair. I picked up my pace to avoid her then she asked another skeleton right next to her how her hair looked. I went back to the king and then somehow everyone else went there too and was asking the king stupid questions. For example, “What’s the fastest route for me?” The king got overwhelmed and ran off in a high-up building that no one could reach. By the way, the king did not look like a king, instead he was very average with slightly exaggerated face and hands.

[23 June 08]

**This is one of the more vivid dreams that I’ve had in awhile.**

Falling down a slide into a machine, I have no idea of the purpose of the machine. But there are many obstacles you have to avoid to survive such as rollers from the ceiling coming down and crushing you, or flat panels from the side. The entire slide was very dark and wet, but only lasted a few seconds. I rode it multiple time. I once rode it with someone who called me “James”. I also was with someone who I referred to as Patrick. And he called the other guy “James”. After the slide was a greenhouse, with many plants and less flowers. I was looking for these bug-like things. I don’t know why, but they reminded me or pokemon, only much smaller, the size of a strawberry.

[24 June 08]

My Dad takes us (my two brothers and I) on a trip to a theme park of water. However, we stay in one of the nastiest rooms I’ve ever seen. Not only that, but it had a haunted vibe to it. It was half-life 2 quality beyond dirty, a very dark and dimly lit, red-orange bulbs in a lamp with tan carpets, the water park was fantastic though! Good slides, although my little brother and I only went down 2. And there was a Splash Mountain like ride there also. But I did not ride it after the theme park we made for the car only packing a small amount of our stuff and leaving a few suitcases behind. I told dad but he never gave me a straight answer. He then said he would get the dog he promised us.

I’m at a different house, but the backyard is similar to mine. Overgrown flower patches and the grass is really poorly mowed. I looked across the water and noticed some landscapes at work. This was after a storm hit blowing our fence around our yard in pieces. One of the workers came over and I asked what to do about the yard. He first responded by taking a hatchet to the flower pot, and then trimming the second pot. I interrupted him and asked just about the grass. He didn’t say anything and climbed up a ladder to the roof while removing some debris from the ladder.

[8 July 08]

I’m running around and climbing a different staircase in many different scene, eventually I appear in a forest scene and my uncle is there. It seems like we are preparing for a vacation or something, but his camper is covered in a yellow dust and looks like it hasn’t been touched in years. It turns out that it is the future and that the camper (and my music carrying bag) are both completely old-looking.

[9 July 08]

*Either this was a dream to scare myself so I would wake up (I needed to be up early) or something else…*

I was upstairs in my house near the stairs. I was standing there looking at the cloest and saw a light-brown big something. I looked directly at it and realized it was my dog who passed away a few years ago! But then she faded away. I wasn’t scared from that, but shocked. Now in my room on my bed (a false awakening) I try to A.P. and manage to start separating my head. But I got worried and calmed down, turned on the T.V., watched a short cartoon then woke up.

*I’ve always been able to tell myself prior to sleeping what time I want to get up and usually I wake up 5 min before that time.*

[12 June 08]

I’m at a last party with all of my high school friends. A very odd place with a water theme, it’s all also very dark and dim. I now appear suddenly to a small place selling video games, I got really excited because I saw someone walk away with SNES cartridges (Super Nintendo Entertainment System). My little brother was there with me also.

[18 June 08]

I’m at some fairground and there are a couple of snakes you can hold if you want. Also, my uncle is there after holding the snakes for awhile I suddenly appear back home… kind of, it’s more like the garage was the fairgrounds and I’m packing up a lot of heavy equipment. As I’m lugging it upstairs my uncle is starting to leave (as I’m told or somehow just know) and this frustrates me because my hard work went into getting all of that ready. I now falsely wake up in my bed. And on my nightstand there was a time-stamp like thing I looked at that said when I woke up at the middle of the night and the time right now (~7:04 AM). As I lied in bed, I got angry that I didn’t become lucid in sleep. Then I truly woke up at 7:40.

*I believe that’s a method that consistently happens in my dream when I want or need to wake up early. It’s possible that I just don’t remember it. Since I’m always able to wake up just a few minutes before I need to be up, It’s possible that in my dreams I “wake up in my bed” check the time, and then truly wake up when it’s ready…. But that’s all speculation anyway.*

[22 June 08]

I’m outside at a park and having a picnic with my dad, and my two brothers. There’s a steel structure known as “Steam Paint” as this guy (white, young, short hair) climbs around talking aobut it, he was building it up to make it sound better than it will be. Once he finished I went over to my dad and we were eating from a dead animal, but no one was disgusted, it was all in a blanket. And he said “I let the birds go at it.” And he showed me a poop spot from a bird. I then looked into the distance to see my older brother’s car in the grass. It died on him apparently.

[27 June 08]

I’m following a family through a few scenes that change up a bit every now and then, but I keep repeating them. That is until this one part. So I see a doorway, and the room it leads too looks a lot like the music room at my house, but it’s empty and the enterance to the living room is there on the side indicating that I’m in a doorway that really doesn’t exist in my house. I’m now looking into the empty band room, I see a young woman and a little girl who I think is her daughter. Andway, in this particular scene there are some flashing lights and they both looked scared. The first time I did this scene the mom way “trying something new” (that’s what she said) but the little girl said “How will this help?” And it ends there. The next and final time the same scene happens but I intervene right after the girl and tell a story of an endless escalator series that “if you focus really hard, you can become free.” Then I woke up.

*this is probably why I’m really frustrated. Even my subconscious mind talking to me is saying all you need to do is focus to become lucid, which is true. But how do I focus on becoming lucid if I’m not disbelieving the dream? Do I need to focus on it consciously as I fall asleep? I need to somehow force myself in-dream to just focus and concentrate on one thing… That’s
really all I need to do, but how do I do that?*

[2 Aug 08]

I’m at a huge auditorium and everybody’s playing music (like a talent show, but it becomes late apparently so my moma dn my little brother go back home (it’s the future apparently)). My older brother and I persuade my mom to let us stay, but now there’s nobody there, so I go and offer to paly bass. I wanted to paly piano, but didn’t think they allowed it. Then people start coming back and my friend comes up to me and asks to go instead (he knew I had nothing planned) and said “I’m going to play a toccata.” Then I yelled back at him that I play Toccata et Fugue on the piano. I don’t know why I yelled. So then I pick up the bass but the D.J. (knowing that I can’t honestly play bass turned off the lights and played a song with a lot of bass in it). At that point I start air-guitarting on stage with my eyes closed. After awhile I try to open my eyes to see the crowd, but instead I see my ceiling as if I’m asleep in bed. I quickly close my eyes again with the music still going I continue to rock out.

*I believe that I actually know I’m dreaming now in the dream, but don’t care. I’m not completely lucid, but enough to think even to partially realize I’m dreaming. I’m very close to becoming fully lucid… I must be right?*

[16 Aug 08]

[Dream 1]

I’m with my friend at a camp and as we’re walking along he gets kicked in the chest. Now I’ with my mom on a road and she gets hit by a red/orange jeep. I run over to er to see if she’s all right, and she is. So then I look for the jeep and as I see them drive off I chase after them in a fit of rage. Once they stop and I catch them, my friend also comes out of the car, but he’s not his normal self (like he’s been brainwashed). I don’t know how I know, I just do.

[Dream 2]

I’m in the kitchen at home with my mom and my little brother. And they both had really similar dreams!

[Dream 3]

I’m on a big cruise ship for some sort of school party and the ship is also edible! I was there with my friend and his whole crew. (the typical kids I hang out with). It was dark and cloudy outside and generally an unhappy mood. Then my other friend met up with me.

[?]

I’m talking online and apparently the company Valve is planning on releasing a “furry” updaye, whatever that may be. So I try looking up details, but can’t find any. So then I’m all of the sudden in a very odd TF2 game with really odd weapons and figure this must be the furry update! I’m playing as a medic and I try to shoot down a scout with the uberskin (he’s being ubercharged), after awhile he escapes to stay alive and I get pissed off at the bottles of medicine because they healed him. So I try to break one open with a large piece of glass.

[1 Sept 08]

I was at a small mall, for some reason I tohugh it was Fred Myer’s. Anyway, I had a phantom tail! That means I could feel it move and bump into tings, but never saw it. I think it may have been just a stuffed tail, but it have feeling too, no control though. And I don’t even believe it was a furry con or anything, I was just walking around with my friend wearing a tail.
[Another dream recalled at the previous date]
Another dream I had before that one also included a phantom tail, and saw some friends who were wireded out by my tail, but got oever it. Also I ended up swimming across a lake break stroke, but I could breathe extraordinarily well! I rationalized that I must be going so fast that air flows directly to my mouth or something. I also got cut up pretty nasty underwater by random sea-life.

Yay! They're all posted!

[12 Nov 08]

It ended at my aunt's house where my grandma and I needed boards of wood to protect ourselves from the pellets or something that would attack while "shopping" for food in their backyard. Prior to that we were looking at a gate that led out of their yard, apparently there's a coca tree back there. But to keep the dogs safe, I "imagine" the door closed and it closes by itself. Before that I was talking with my dad about my little brother.

*Just as a note, It always helps me out a ton if I think to my self while lying bed "I will remember everything. I will remember all of my dreams tonight." It helps me remember them upon waking, and possibly helps me get close to lucid-ness. I'm going to try thinking "I will focus in-dream tonight" since "I will become lucid" doesn't work. I'm choosing focus because in one of my previous dreams, my subconscious said "If you focus really hard, you can become free."*

[13 Nov 08]

I’m with my Grandma and my Uncle. I end up driving and coming to an intersection where 2 trains are waiting to pass. The first one goes then I cut off the second one. As soon as I pass the train I’m suddenly outside my “car” (remember, I never actually recall seeing any car, I’m just going through the motions) and am pushing it through the intersection. After that I meet up with someone who knows me, but I don’t know her, I’m wearing my wolf ears so she looks at me funny. We (me her, her son, and Nancy) travel down a small path with bushes on both sides and fences that meet at a point. Her son easily gets over, but we’re stuck since he won’t move and ants, or as they were called in the dream “Puyo”, are littered along both sides! He mentions something about how his dog would eat the Puyo up.

*Perhaps "Puyo" is my subconsious or somthing reffering to the game "Puyo Pop", which is basically Kirby's Avalanche.*

[Dream 2]

Something about the game show Survivor…

*I tried to WILD after this, but fail in the same place that I always fail. My arms, hands, bottom of my legs, and feet are “free”, but the rest of my body is fully awake and my heartbeat seems to shake the bed almost at times! What I really want to do is get a sound clip of relaxing, essentially I want to re-create what happened that day at track where I had my closest lucid dream.*

[14 Nov 08]

Something about “Left 4 Dead”. I wasn’t playing it, but I was just looking at my computer screen and several friends were “in-game LID” Which I guess stands for Left 4 Dead demo.

*I remembered much more when I woke up after this dream, but I didn’t write it down since I tried to DEILD, and failed. Then forgot it all that fast.*

[Dream 2]

*It’s not so much a dream, more like I knew I was lying in bed with my eyes closed seeing this, but it was a very vivid clear image and conversation, yet something just didn’t feel “real” about it. Either way, I knew I was dreaming, but it didn’t feel like a complete, whole, dream.*

I was probably flying around, but I don’t remember. I saw two dogs (small ones, a white fluffy one, and a small brown one) at a grassy park aside a big lake. As I talked to this other guy there, he went on about how the Hiroshima bomb blew up, and in the black hole it created a “scar” came out when it collapsed. I thought it was very poetic and meaningful when I heard it. While he was talking, I started hearing the song “Kryptonite” by “3 Doors Down” really vividly! I started enjoying it all and getting lost into the sense of the dream, but as I started getting deeper into the music, I felt like I was spinning, since I knew that meant I was close to a full lucid dream, I got excited and lost sight and sound of the dream!

*I’m not a big fan of 3 Doors Down, but I do love that one song. It fits the Medic from TF2 perfectly! And when I started getting lost into that song, I suppose I was getting more relaxed and into the dream (I started thinking “this is a dream” a lot less), which means if I could’ve stayed lucid, and had relaxed enough, it probably would’ve been a full lucid dream.*

*Another note, I tried like 3 aids this night: I listened to this "subliminal message song". Which sounds beautiful by the way!Link. I tried this, but don't remember the dream at all. I had to sleep with big clunky headphones, it was hard. Link to the Theta Steam I used. I also got up and drank some apple juice right before the second "dream".

I was hovering behind Mario watching him as he did something then in a new room he grabbed an ice-flower and skated across the water I was later flying in. He also skated above small platforms that you would have to cross if you didn’t have the ice flower. I’m now suddenly flying around in a giant black space, but to rationalize it (and from what happened before) I think I’m swimming, but not doing any of the swimming motions. Also, there’s a whale flying around, or swimming. I seem to be heading for the puzzle piece in the center, but I’m collecting items as I go that are within big golden rings. At one point the whale almost eats me since he too is going for the rings. I’m now past the piece so I turn around and start falling back to where I started, which was horizontal to where I am, so I’m falling forward. While I’m falling I notice a bunch of power-ups and items I hadn’t noticed before, like a 7-up! Also, at one point in time while flying, I saw something like a “pause screen” that listed all of my power-ups and I was really excited and surprised that I had gotten the “flying” power-up. Once I land I follow this pattern of arrows on an odd shaped block, and these arrows affect gravity only if you’re walking on them. I repeat that scene a couple of times in a variety of ways, such as trying to step over the whole block itself.

*I really noticed that in many of my dreams, I fly or hover just above ground… I’ve never noticed this before since I always rationalize my flying with something: Swimming, driving, etc. But in all reality, I’m actually hovering or flying around watching people or things and I always assume that I’m one of them once I wake up, or that I’m with them! But now I know that I’m actually just flying and hovering around a lot like a movie camera if it were filming a movie! I never believed I flew around so much! Can someone say, dream sign maybe?*

[18 Nov] *My previous dates were the nights I -had- the dream, now I'm posting the date of the morning after, so I didn't skip a day.

I’m working at Mud Bay (a pet supply store that I work for), but it’s in a completely different location. Something else happens prior, but I don’t remember. Anyway, I take my 8th grade science teacher’s stuff she wants to buy and drive it (I believe I saw my car and other cars, but I can’t say for 100%) down to Safeway (a grocery store), since she wants to pay for them there or something. She doesn’t come for awhile so I drive back and find out she got distracted outside somewhere. This whole dream was very dark, as if night.

[20 Nov]

I’m at a library with my brother and his friend. We’re picking out a ton of books, and my brother is starting to get a bit annoyed with his friend since he keeps picking out books that they don’t need or something.

*I’ve been way too tired and stressed to get a good night’s sleep… I need to get to bed early tonight, not 10:30 like it has been. I don't even remember my first dream that night, but I woke up after it.*

[22 Nov]

[1st]

I’m with my little brother in a very dark scene where the only color really is the tan of the desk-chair mix. The scary thing is that suddenly the desk first started ripping apart into black squares and started flying toward an end-point… more like an area that I couldn’t visibly see, but the pieces were flying toward it. While this was going on, it made a sound like a swarm of locust. I went through this scene I believe several times, but I can only say for 100% at least 2.

[2nd]

I honestly can’t remember my second dream now… but when I woke up in the middle of the night after it, I did remember it. I just tried to focus on it and get back into it, but couldn’t. I have a very hard time creating the images to jump into sometimes…

[3rd]

I’m at a hotel like place where my older brother is apparently to. It’s sunny and a clear day outside the windows, a few trees can be seen. Apparently, my brother’s room (at the hotel) is fairly messy and he has a couple of stuffed toys, which is something pretty unrealistic unless he has a girlfriend. Anyway, Some girls also apparently are in the hotel also, and they’re talking with us. The hotel hallways were very crème colored, the floor had a dark-red theme going on.

*Whatever happened to my flying dream sign? Hm.... At least I'm back to remembering my dreams! *

[23 Nov]

I’m going through an airport to go to California for a friend (even though I don’t know of anyone in California). As I pass the security gate extremely nervous, I realized that I still haven’t paid for the ticket, and it’s a pretty bad idea to go all the way to California for a day. So I turn back and start walking back out. I then see someone with a fursuit head walking around, I try to make it clearly obvious to her that I’m wearing my wolf ears, and she says something about it to her friend. I then turn around and pounce-hug her! As we walk through the airport we pass a “furry lounge” full of fursuiters, but I don’t want to go in since I complain about how bad my head piece is. As I exit the airport, it turns out some people are playing a show on a giant wire mesh high above in the sky. It’s of a marble going through a rainbow colored track with some music playing in the background. It’s a very interesting and fun ride! I forgot what the music sounded like though. After watching that for a bit, I’m up on a ravine playing a keyboard, only to shortly realize it’s my older one! (I believe I actually at one point was playing my newer one, then went to the airport, but not 100% sure on that). So I’m now looking around for the person who stole my keyboard. I’m going through this very dusty, dry desert like place of a city with kids running around, but none of them know anything about my keyboard. I figured they were just lie-ing anyway.

*The last part of my old keyboard and the desert scene were very vivid.. actually a lot of was pretty vivid!*

You have good recall.

Btw in an early dream you mentioned knowing it all when you awoke but trying to DEILD and forgetting almost all. I hate it when that happens.

ALL I COULD REMEMBER WAS THE WORD "COLONIAL"?! WTF SUBCONSCIOUS?!

EDIT: Btw I love your dream categorization system. Make a thread to tell everyone about it.

Last night I had one of your Blue category dreams (and a full lucid that I forgot everything about except for the fact that I was lucid and the word "colonial").

[24 Nov]

I’m at my computer, but it’s acting up and has a very wired bug or virus.

*I don’t recall anymore as to what exactly happened. I need to stop trying to DEILD and write my dreams down as soon as I wake up from them!*

[13 Dec]

*3rd dream*

I’m at highschool wearing my tail. I first look into my old physics class, but it’s full of kids, so I leave and head over to ASL class. I’m immediately given a card with someone’s name on it, I suppose like a tutor thing. I don’t care though and I’m suddenly in my friend's house (though it’s nothing like her house!). There, my friend's sister explains that they don’t need a room anymore and that we will be moving out soon. She says that while putting on her earrings without her sweatshirt on and I remark that she looks totally different and she really did). My friend then comes into the bathroom top-less and starts saying “Boobies!” I cover my eyes and cower in the corner, but laughing (I thought it was slightly humorus since it’s something she would never do!).

*2nd dream*

I get a package from a friend, but Patrick already opened it. However, it contained nothing that I originally put in and a paper said it was unlawful to do something, I forget now.

[18 Dec]

All I remember now is, driving (maybe) into someone’s driveway in what looked like a Florida suburbs. I then walked on over to “my” driveway, even though it really wasn’t anything like any of the driveways I’ve lived at. There was a very vivid grand piano. I was wondering why I left it outside since it’s now covered in green and yellow spots or stains. I considered taking it back inside, but didn’t want to move it that far.

[19 Dec]

*Dream 1*

I’m at the “Lake Forest Park mall” on the upper level. However, everyone up there is frozen, as in not moving at all. At first I think that “the game is lagging:, but believe it’s real life (since it was so clear and vivid) so that makes no sense since real life can’t “freeze” or “lag”. I then reason that something must be wrong with my brain. Either way, I get some water from a water cooler, but it doesn’t satisfy my thirst at all, and I don’t understand why. I end up looking out a window and see some guy moving between where Mud Bay is and a van, I assume it’s Tom and that I’ve overslept on my break. I suddenly end up down there, but it’s a giant movie complex and someone wants to buy a movie.

*Dream 2*

I’m working at a store that looks close to Mud Bay. I see two people approach the entrance and I know that they’re going to rob us. As soon as they enter the guy reaches into his coat, but I throw up my hands instantly and say something like “alright, alright” and start taking out the register drawers. The guy starts walking back and I take this opportunity to go to the back as well, while taking careful notes of their faces, which now that I think about it, changed each time I looked back at them. I get to the back and go to the gun rack (that I’ve never seen before in real life) and take out a black pistol. I turn on the safety and walk back up front behind a co-worker and another worker already shot the first guy . We locate the second (who’s now a woman) and advance on her to kill her. However, my gun was out of bullets and somehow was a silver chrome color.
