Thread: Task of the Month for April 2009

This is going to be awesome!

I ended up riding a cloud while I was doing the Great Lighthouse task of the year. That was a few weeks ago though.

I'm going to try to ride a cloud and then dive off it into some body of water.

I got it last night. It's the first lucid I've had in a week. I ended up doing a backwards dive out of the water and into the sky. It was actually very cool. I'm not sure if my could one counts or not since I did it in 3rd person.

The task parts are in blue.

I WILD’d.
I was getting some spinach for my mom since she asked for some. I knew it was just a dream, but it felt more like HH, so I just went along with it for a bit. At some point that faded.

I DEILD’d. I couldn’t tell If I was dreaming though or just in my bed. I bit my tongue and it didn’t hurt. I got up and tried to get visuals to form. I tried opening my eyes, and for the first time, it actually worked… for a second. Then the dream visuals faded again. I felt, banged on, and licked the walls, but I just couldn’t get visuals to form. I got snapped back to my bed.

I DEILD’d. I was now in a SAM’s Club. There were two DCs there and one suggested that I conjure up a bunch of girls so we can have an orgy. I’m hesitant because I want to do the task of the month, but I decide why not. I try, but I can’t get any girls to appear. Then a funny thought occurred to me. What if I could get Cloud from DV to appear. I was wondering if I could get him to give me a piggyback ride if that would count as “riding a cloud”. Lol. The dream faded though.

I DEILD’d again. This time the LD started on my futon in my living room. I could see from the start this time, but things were still hazy. I went into the bathroom and crawled into the mirror. Like usual it felt like going through water. I tried to get myself to appear in the sky near some clouds, but it just felt like I was underwater. I looked up and I could see the surface way up above.

Previously, my plan to complete the tasks of the month was to ride on a cloud and then dive off into the water. I decided I’d just do it backwards. I would dive backwards out of the water and land on a cloud and ride it. I shot out of the water and into the sky, but when I got up there, I couldn’t find a cloud to land on. I could see some large ones in the distance, but no small ones around me. Then there was some sort of transition to my bedroom. I remember that the transition made a lot of sense in the dream world since it tied the sky to my bedroom through some thoughts in my head, but I can’t recall now how they were tied together.

I decided I needed to get back outside to find a cloud. I pushed my blinds aside and opened the window. I went outside, but I found it really tough to walk. I looked down to find my feet tangled in some sort of barbed wire that was covering the ground. I spent a second looking around at the area outside my apartment. There were flowers everywhere and it was a beautiful day. I made sure I really took in how real it was. I don’t do that enough. I then flew straight up at high speed, but then the dream faded.

I DEILD’d again. I went into my bathroom and through the mirror while trying to imagine myself in the sky again. It sort of worked this time, but I was now seeing myself in 3rd person and I looked all blocky like old 3d animation. I got myself onto a small cloud and I was riding it like a surfboard for a bit before the dream faded. It felt odd watching myself. It didn’t really feel like me.

Congrats!

High In The Air On A Platform - Walking Out On These Clouds Then Boarding This Cloud Shaped Like A Space Ship (WILD)
I am up really high on this platform while aware that I am dreaming where I am unable to see anything at first, although I can sense that I am really high. When I notice that there are clouds all around me, I take off walking across the clouds. They feel sort of like pillows and hold me up. I walk over these clouds until I come to this one cloud that looks different than the other clouds as it is shaped like a jet. I walk into this cloud and sit down in this seat.

Suddenly the wife is in the seat next to me (where did she come from?) handing me this seat belt and making sure I put it on. She then fastens her seat belt, after which we take off flying really fast. I am glad that she had me put my seat belt on at this point. We are going so fast that I feel out of control and am gasping for air. Finally the cloud slows down and I am able to control where we are going simply by thinking about which way I would like to go. I take us down where we are able to see the ground and then maneuver us to the right and left before heading back up into the air.

Good job everyone so far!

Keep it up!

Have fun guys

Really great task ideas! I'm really excited to go exploring the mysterious dream-oceans. I'm doing these both tonight

I'll give this one a shot...

I think I could do the diving one not to sure about the clouds. But I'll try both.

John11 stole my idea.
I'll do it the next time i'm lucid.

Well it didn't quite work out for me. Maybe you'll have better luck.

Hi Im new to these forums but I have been reading them for about a year. I only now decided to register as for the first time ever I completed the task of the month. I took a nap during the day(which is stange because I usually find it hard to sleep during the day) and this happened:

I woke up in an usual place that was sort of like a diner. The lady at the Counter asked me if I would like cofee over and over again. For some reason I just ignored her and walked out. I walked out and saw some gas pumps near the diner. Suddenly the sound of tires screeching filled my ears as a small pick up truck slammed into the pumps and a huge fireball engulfed me. I screamed in terror(not lucid yet). But when the fireball cleared everything was back to normal, the gas pumps were fixed an I was fine.

At this point I decided things were certainly not normal. I did a quick finger through the palm RC and lo and behold my finger slipped right through my palm. The very first thing I did was fly high up into the air, just to feel the rush of the cold wind against my face. It was amazing. While high up there, I rememberedthe task of the month and quickly fixated myself on a cloud in the distance. I launched myself on to it. I quickly grabbed hold of the fluffy antennae like things jutting from the top. The cloud acted like a bull. It shook itself all around trying to throw my off. Eventually I got control and went soaring throw the air.

Yeeeehaaaww!!! I roared at the top of my lungs. That was until my logical brain realised I was floating on a mass of water vapour. I fell right through it and hit the ground with a thump. I was soaking wet but really happy with my accomplishment.

It feels so amazing when you're underwater in a dream...plus the benefit of never having to resurface.

Can't wait to try it out

Oh darn i had a dream about diving a few days ago, not lucid but still cool, ill try my best but i gaurantee nothing

These sound pretty cool; Much better than last month's.

But what exactly is meant by "go diving?" Scuba diving, sky diving, cliff diving, diving off a diving board?

Yeah, I have the same question has Hazel. Could we go sky diving or what kind of diving to be exact?

It says diving.

Do whatever kind of diving you want.

Good luck, everyone!

'Kay, cool. I'll probably do whichever is the most accessible at the time.

I am going to try this tonight. I have been using Mild before bed and it has been giving great results.

sweeet im riding a cloud for sure
just have to find a way to get on one

I think I'll try this one... gonna ride a cloud!

I did try this but I didn't put it in my Dream Journal. There were some clouds in the sky which sparked my memory. Do the task! I couldn't fly for some reason. Next time, next time I will succeed!
