I said 'hold on' and cupped my hands together and tried again....still nothing. By this point I'm a bit frustrated. I decide to swith tasks.
I attempt the typical movie reading minds. I put my fingers on my temple and squinted into the DC's eyes. Again, the DC laughed at me and started squinting back, making fun of me. Then I slipped into a non-lucid dream.

I underestimated the difficulty, I'll get it though.

Ok.. this is just too funny!! Low level control lucids can really suck.. but at least our DCs get a chuckle out of them!!

Clairity, that was pretty awesome. It's amazing what your mind comes up with. The odd fish bowls with fish, so 'off the wall'

sweet, i did both tasks

I was at school and we were trying to make gerbils fly. I though this was odd so i did a RC and became lucid. I grabbed a box from my pocket and gave it to somebody i've never seen before and he threw it and ran behind a desk. I went up to him and asked him why he threw it. He said it was a bomb and i heard an explosion. I though this was pretty funny. Then i remembered the mind reading task and i did this by just imaging the DCs as radio transmitters and i started hearing their thoughts and one of them was thinking "I wish i got a present".

I then went to fly and attack zombies. Now to think about it i should've gave one of the zombies a present.

lol i think its funny too


now that i think about it...this present thing could get a little dangerous, think about it. You are just pulling out random boxes out of nowhere and giving them to people. They could be good things,like fish in claritys present, or they could be bombs like in pyrofan1s lol Mine is probably an atomic bomb or somthing lol

I WILL do this task! I will!

My gift would probaby be a dragon egg- LOL

I keep trying either dc's fight over it, or I can't find the present, or wraping paper.

Okay, I did the easy task!

I was sitting at my computer desk, realized all the icons were changing, and so I figured I was dreaming. I turned around, saw one of my friends there, and I thought, "I should give him a present!" So I grab a piece of paper, hand it to him, say "Merry Christmas!" and run off before he can give it back.

ooh i just did the regular task!! yaay!

i think i did an accidental DILD. anyway the dream had a very low level of lucidity, and then someone was counting my level of lucidity, so i saw that and became much more lucid and gained control. i saw the chance to give a DCa present, so i rant o the nearest person and gave him a little box. i do not remember seeing what wqas inside, because i was being woken up so i spun a lot, but i still woke up... evil time!

oh and by the way, the present was an oddly shaped metal machine thing

Well well well, this is certanly an interesting "new" team added to dream views. I love the concept! Needless to say, I'm up for this challenege. It will be even more amazing if I succeed as I haven't had a lucid in some time.

I hope I get a LD this month, I have some "presents" I want to give to somebody.

Did both tasks!!!!! It was my first LD where i had what seemed like complete control, and everything around me was so real (not hyper-real, just real)...but i'll spare the whole story, i'll post that somewhere else.

Long story short: I was talking with a woman who just came into my house, when a man showed up at my door. I decided i better have something to entertain him with, since he greeted my like a friend who had been invited over. Remembering the tasks, i told him that i was going to read his mind (seems like a good parlor trick, right?). He laughed and said ok, and the woman laughed too. I started to crouch a little bit and put my hands out in front of me with fingers outstretched and thumbs touching, very close to his forehead. Then I closed my eyes and concentrated on what was in his mind. This is the cool part: Even though my eyes were closed, I could "see" he mind. I saw a huge jaw-like thing open and close itself on my hands. Obviously, if his mind was trying to eat stuff, he was hungry! So opened my eyes and did the arms behind my back thing. At first I thought "cake" but then said to myself "no, how about pie?" This is another cool part: As i was thinking, i could see my back and my hands! I don't know how to explain it, it was as if there were two mirrors that allowed me to see my back. Anyway, at first it was a cake, then it changed to a slice of pumpkin pie on a small decorative plate (whipped cream on top, of course). I announced, "You're hungry!" and gave him the pie. He laughed, said thanks, and started eating it.

I just have to say, that as this my first completely aware lucid dream...holy &*$^. its completely nuts. opening a whole other world. cant put it into words.

when do we get our prizes? lol

I'm glad I'm not on your Christmas list....

yaay thank you

Oh. My. Goth. i had the most incredible LD i have ever had. (not to mention the longest).. ok. every time i LD, i try to put my b/f in it .. but this time, my b/f was already IN my dream. in the beginning, i was in an elevator and i pressed a wrong button that made me have to pay to open the doors. i thought, wait. PAY to open doors? and i then thought hell yeah! LD! but then freaked b/c my b/f was trying to commit suicide in my dream so i pulled him off the balcony and wrapped him in my arms just before he leaped from the building. (does the gift of a second chance at life count?) .. and i didnt want to change much about the dream b/c just being w/ Justin is good enough, but i did make the hotel we were at a grand luxury hotel w/ high gold domed ceilings, waiters, and as many flat screen TVs you could imagine! (and i also made Justin a wrestler/football player .. buffness!&#33 ... as we were cuddling on a couch in the lounge i handed him a box. it was a clear box and you could see doughnuts inside. but when he opened it there was a statue of a dragon inside, and he took it out and it turned into an actual dragon! in a hotel! he was siked. and so was i. but i didnt get to read his mind, i didnt even think of it. just the present thing.

~R~

when do we get our prizes? Sorry if i seem impatient

i completed both tasks last night...

lucid task: i was eating food with some people i knew and i became lucid so i remebered the task and gave one of them a chip as a present he said thank you and i flew away...

advanced lucid task: after i flew away i changed into sephiroth or some dbz guy, i dont know it was like a mixture of the two and i landed and read a characters mind he was thining "please dont hurt me" and "save me" so then i looked in the direction he was and i saw these evil guys and all the dbz guys arrived there was a massive battle and i later went with trunks to try and find them, they were hiding in a submarine, i blew it up and afterwards entered an ice cavern where i had to kill hundreds of killer robots????

Me again.

Had another LD and this time I remembered to do the tasks. However I couldn't do the gift giving task because I couldn't make a dream character appear so that I could offer a gift.

I did sort of manage to read a mind. I wondered if budgies think. I scooped one out of the cage and tried to read it's mind. The only thing that happened was I felt this massive fear and it felt as if my heart were racing a million miles a second. And then the little squawk box bit me.

So... I don't know if that qualifies as reading a mind or if it simply was soaking up it's fear. Either way, I'm going to try both lucid tasks again. I've got to get one right sooner or later.

Maybe I'm just having a stressful day but this struck me as really funny!!

Thanks.. I needed a laugh!!

(No, but seriously.. I hope it didn't hurt......................... )

Ok, I think I just invented a new technique in trying this task. First of all, I think that I was able to ld because I was ld'ing with intent. I was especially motivated to focus on this in order to complete the task. I think that's an important factor here. So here's what I did last night before I went to sleep:

I was reviewing this thread and I noticed a common problem- nobody can seem to be able to manifest a dream unless their in a super lucid state. I attempted to fix that problem by taking my gift from the waking world to the dream world with me. I put my class ring in the pockets of my pajamas as I went to bed last night, then with my hand in my pocket holding onto my ring I fell asleep thinking about my purpose in the dream and that my ring was in my pocket. After I did that for a few minutes and experiencing a good deal of HI I opened my eyes (my room was pitch black) and I did an RC by looking at my clock. Well my clock didn't even have a time, it was a marque scrolling the word "clock." This was probably the most obvious dream I've ever been in. The first thing I did was lie back down as to not get too excited and wake up and put my hand in my pocket and my ring was still there. I slowly got up from my bed and went to open my door, but upon realizing that i was in a dream and lucid, I thought about just going through my door instead. Well I did, but as I was stepping through (another RC, because at the moment I have a torn MCL and a sprained ACL from a wrestling incident and I can't exactly step through anything), but as I was stepping through I thought oh no what if I get stuck in the door? I think I kind of lost some control at this point because my leg got caught in the door and I looked back and the door had kind of sealed shut between it and the wall, with my leg in it. Instead of willing myself out i began calling for help and my girlfriend came and asked what was wrong. I had completely lost lucidity at this point because I was asking her to help me "unlock" my leg and didn't think it was strange that my leg was stuck inside the door. All she did was open the door and I fell out of the doorway, stepping with my bad leg again, thus becoming lucid again. I remembered my task and put my hand in my pocket for my ring again. It wasn't there but I checked my hand, where I usually wear it in r/l, and it was there. So I thanked her and said that I would give her my ring for helping me and I took it off and I handed it to her, except when she took it it was already on her finger and she started like... I don't know.. that thing that girls do. She said Are you proposing to me? It was a dream so I said, Yes I am. She said Ok, well let me think about it. Here is yours, and she gave me a lock of her hair (she didn't say this, but in the dream I knew it meant that she would tell other guys not to mess with her because I had proposed to her) So then we go into my room and watch tv. Haha, typical events after a proposal.

So does this count as a task completed even though I lost lucidity halfway through the dream? Also, any feedback on my technique? I think it's more of a method because I really think that my feeling of intent and purpose in the dream had a lot to do with it. Having the ring in my pocket and remembering to look for it in my dream was an easy way of recognizing I was dreaming too. Could this be an efficient technique? GILD- haha Gift Induced Lucid Dreaming. I totally forgot about the other task though.

hi

well yesterday I had LD
so I gave a woman" bottle of wine" as a present ,anyway she smiled , and she wanted to give me something in return so she gave me a job in a restaurant called "big burger"

Suuuuure. You laugh now but you wait until a budgie bites you in a dream... then we'll see who's laughing.

Actually, it did hurt but not too badly. It was more of an annoyance than a pain. I'm just glad that it didn't hurt enough to make me wake up.

lol. Remember: it's the thought that c--wait...never mind.

Hey! Last night I dreamt that I gave my friend a very unusual gift...but it was for his dream birthday...and I wasn't lucid... But I've been trying to WILD lately, and *almost* being successful. Hopefully I'll achieve lucidity soon and be able to do this task. I keep trying every month...maybe I'll be able to do it this time!

Alright, this is my first crack at the tasks that are on the site. I generally just set tasks for myself. I completed both tasks about two nights ago. The first was a LD that included a bunch of my good friends from back home. I already knew that I was dreaming, so when my friend asked if I had a pipe I had just the right idea. I reached into my palm and pulled out a lump of glass. I shaped and melted the lump with my fingers and created a beautiful glass pipe for my friend to use. I handed it to my bewildered dream friend and he smoked.

The second task was completed in another lucid dream later in the night. I was on an old wrecked pirate ship. I cant remember now where we were trying to go. I do remember however that the ship shouldn't be floating, let along cruising at a quick pace through the choppy, grey water. After the cabin that the crew and I were on flooded I became lucid and remembered the other task. I froze one of the crew members in place (possibly the captain) and touched my forehead to his. I tried to absorb his mind and drain all the information from it. I didnt get any words, just a catalogue of images about the history and destruction of the ship. When I finished the man collapsed. I didnt mean to kill him, but I was happy that I got what I wanted to.
