Thread: Task of the Month for December 2008

I tried to do the Advanced task a couple nights ago, but I failed.

I had a lucid early in the night and part of it was quite different than anything I had experienced before. Here's an excerpt from my Dream Journal:

I was in a car maintenance like place. I walked toward the next room and the dream faded.

It didn't fade like my LDs have faded in the past. I just felt like I wasn't asleep anymore. I could produce vivid images by imagining them, but it didn't feel like a dream, but it didn't feel like I was awake. I visualized Santa's sleigh and got in. I said, "On Donner, on dasher, on prancer, on vixen, on Donner, on Cupid, on Donner, on Blitzen." I noticed I said Donner 3 times. Then I felt like this was a waste anyway since it was just me visualizing and not really a dream. I think I fell into another dream, but I don't remember.

I had another LD later that night, but I wasn't thinking too clearly so I just kept calling out for Santa and that didn't do any good.

isnt riding in santas sleigh not dead easy, i just dont like the idea of letting something take you away somewhere random, its gunna be boring. (the hard part for me is getting lucid)

p.s. are you aloud to drive a sleigh powered by rockets instead of reigndeer?

can I be the one driving the sleigh, or does it have to be santa?

When referring to Santa's Sleigh & you tell me to ride in it... Only dirty thoughts come to mind.

Technically I would be correct saying I could get laid in the Sleight to complete the task right? I like where this task is going.

&& transit is just any transportation system right?

Hello Nija9578,

I'm a newly registered user here on Dream Views. Second time poster, long time Ldreamer. I think these tasks are a GREAT IDEA! Can't wait to read about everyone's experiences.

both sound like loads of fun!

i will go to new york and go in the subway!

that will be fun!

maybe the subway would go to the north pole?

lol i could just see someone in the middle of nowhere "santa where are you?"

(sorry about the double post)

The basic task sounds interesting this month. If I find myself in a position to do so, I'll definitely give it a go.

I'm excited about the basic task, too. This is one I've been excited about for the past few months.

I wonder if there is a way to knock both these tasks out with one dream, Polar Express style?

Like get the subway train to go to the north pole and hitch a ride there.

Oh the tasks are out, cool, now to try, I wonder... advanced task counts even if I kick Santa from the sleigh?

I'll make the new badges tomorrow.

I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT!!!! OR I almost did it..
I was very very very suprised it happened this fast!

I remember

then I remember, waking up in the living room, and my nana being their/ I said "wow this is just like a dream" so I did a reality check wear I pinch myself, and it dint seem to hurt lol, so then i tried to breath through my nose, i tried, and it was kinda hard to breath through my nose.. I then counted my finger, and my fingers keep changing places.. I remembered not to get mad about it, because someone on dreamveiws got mad about it, and lost lucidity... then without trying to count anymore, I said "I am dreaming!" But I wasent sure all the way... but I was pretty sure..

anyways oh another reality check i tried to do was to walk through moms computer screen that dint work, well I couldent really walk through it..... so I pushed on it, and it dint make that LCD screen effect when you push on them... so I walked to my living room, were I seen this old lady, she then turned kinda young.. it was weird... she said "can I join you in your dream?" I said what?" she said "can I join you in your dream?" I said "can you join my in my dream!?!?! you know i am dreaming right!?!?!" she said "yes! I want to join you" so I said k:, I thought about what todo.. so then I lifted up herr blouse...... just to look! so then I thought..... hmmmm... what to do... I couldent think of anything to do.. then I remember! Santa's sleigh !!! so I raced to my bake yard (But she dint want to go) there was a car driving down our driveway pretty fast.. and I got kinda scared of it.. oh as I walked out of my house, I seen my dog, had bright red eyes.. I Just ignored it.... anyways in the back yard I seen these 2 huge trash cans, one had white garbage bag iin it, the other had yellow (Note- in alot of my dreams theres alot of blue, white, and yellow) anyways, I tried to turn them into santas sleigh... it dint work,, I even scream "Santa's sleigh!" and closed my eyes and turned around.. not to see santas sleigh....... so I sat granny in the sleigh shaped trash can, and I started picking it up, and sating it down, to kinda make it bounce of the ground... lol then I jumped it on the trampoline... it was hard to keep it over the trampoline.. (Then granny lady was logn gone) then my sister came out (marianne, my twin) I said "Marianne I am dreaming!!!!!" she said "wow, cool" in an uncared voice... I hoped on the trash can sleigh with me (I was afraid it was going to weigh it down lol)... but it dint.. I said "Marianne flap your arms to make it go up!" and she did lol.. I started flapping my arms, and I was looking out art the vista and how beautiful it w.. then my dad, Brent, and Brandon came out.. I said "Guys guys iam dreaming!" dad kidna smiled and said "Yeah right" wih a kinda ok i might be dreaming, but i know iam not dreaming, smile on... then I started flapping away.... and they started getting taller, and taller like fantastic four... I said "guys I am trying to get this to turn into santas sleigh... go away... they dint leave, they just stood there.... and I tried to twist brandons neck to push him away, but his head was like jelow..... sooo yeah... then I remember "wakening up" and I did another reality check and it turns out I was dreaming again! thats all I can remember folks!

that probably dosent count

Sounds good.

dose it count!?!?!?

yep, you'll get your wings soon

is it alright if i can be in the sliegh on my own or does santa have to drive/be in it?

also, i know i posted this question already but it kinda got ignored so, can the sleigh be rocket powered or does it have to be reigndeer?

Santa was not in the sleigh with me.. I cornered my house yelling "I see santas sleigh" expecting to see santas sleigh, but I seen 2 garbage cans big and long, in the shape of a sleigh. So if mine counts, I Guess Santa would not have to be in it..
I thought the Santa one was easier than the public transit (probably because i have never been on a subway or whatever)

i completed the basic task i think, but it was last week, and i wasnt lucid till the end, so i dunno if this will count but ill describe anyway.

i was in a normal dream, i somehow ended up on a bus, i was by myself, so i was bored, and when im bored i always end up doing RCs, so that habit reflected in my dreams, so i became lucid, i had no idea where i was until i smashed out into the air and i realised i was actualy about a mile away from my house.

so i did the task, but it was bad timing and non-lucid

I got into a taxi, and asked "Take me to where the action was."

I ended up in a back alley, where someone was getting mugged. I helped the guy, but I was hoping for something more fun...

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I've been lurking since May. I am having Ld's enough now to try the monthly task. It was very intimidating when I first found that people were able to do this.

However, now that I've had enough Ld's to say I am a Lucid dreamer I am ready to try.

So far I have had a few successful wilds, a lot of deld's and even a string of them one night. I've flown, and even ate food.

I have at least one Lucid a week. I'm always trying to improve and get better results.

So, count me in.

The Transit task will be cool because my dreams usually have only a few people in it...so mass tranist will be a real change.

Really jazzed about the sleigh ride.

My next post will be a completed task. I have my distorted nubby reality checked fingers crossed!

Sorry, you have to be lucid to do the lucid task of the month

I'll try basic & Advanced tonight, hopefully I will have a Lucid. I've was having a dry spell, but lately I've been having a bunch! Wish me luck

Riding On Santa's Sled
I am outside at this remote location where there is snow all over the ground, when this sled driven by Santa pulls up really fast and comes to a abrupt halt. When I climb onto the sled it immediately takes off really fast, pinning me back to the seat. We are going so fast that everything is a blur and I am unable to see anything. After a bit, we seem to be going straight up in the air, which I am only able to sense, as everything is still a blur because of the speed at which we are traveling. I eventually lose consciousness.
