Thread: Task for the Month for March 2009

I completed the rainbow one but it was a stupid LD... The scene was super dark and I said there is a rainbow behind me and I walked on it. Since I have the green eggs and ham completed I will try to make the rainbow LD epic, as in an amazing scene with a sword fight up top Can't wait!

Task of the Month Attempt. Complete failure. Here's an excerpt from the dream. The full dream in in my dream journal (post #13).

3/4-5/09

She doesn't respond (as far as I remember) so I then remember the Task of the Month. I ask her if she has any green eggs and ham. I think she just kinda looked at me funny and laughed. I talked to her for a minute, then walked back toward my room. In my room, I said aloud, "I have green eggs and ham in my hand!", remembering that this phrase had worked for someone else. It didn't work, though my hand started to look like a plate.

I'll be trying again next time I'm lucid!

I know, it really was. I don't always have the experiences I hope for in my lucids, but this one just seemed to work out. This was actually the first task of the month I was actually able to complete, although I tried a few other months but really wasn't very interested until now. Especially since I had a dry spell and I needed some kind of motivation to hold the will.

I'm drawing up the badges now. Where the hell are the admins?

MoS doesn't care about us anymore! I still trust DuB.

Ugh, sorry guys, all 3 of the admins appear to be MIA. I've emailed asher and asked him to grant me admin powers until the others get back. Hopefully this happens soon, the next month's task poll is supposed to go up soon

Okay, I completed the rainbow one last night.

I was walking around my house when I became lucid. Then remembered the lucid task of the month, so I went outside. I made it rain really hard for about a minute as I flew around my neighborhood. I landed down in my local park, then made the sky clear up and made the sun come out. I focused on a point in the distance and made a rainbow appear. Then I teleported myself to it DBZ style, and just kind of floated in the air next to it for a while enjoying the view. The rainbow wasn't connected to the ground, and it was very wide with the colors all in a swirl instead of defined sections of color. I stepped onto it and the colors rippled as if they were water. It was a very weird sensation because it looked as if it would be very slippery but it felt like carpet under my feet. The rainbow was huge and went up as far as I could see with a very gentle arch. I started sprinting up it as fast as I could. I began picking up speed, going faster and faster until the sky suddenly got very dark and I got cold. I could see stars and beautiful clouds of cosmic dust. I realized that I was in space and I could see the top of the rainbow. I kept running untill I made it to the top, then I just sat on the edge with my feet hanging over the side and just looked around. It was incredible. I then jumped off the edge in a straight dive and felt the cool wind on my face as I plumeted towards the Earth. I flew gently back down to the park.

Well that's about it for the task of the month. The rest of the dream is unrelated. Hope you enjoyed reading about it

Ba-Ba-Badges!! I am going to do the rainbow one next, it looks a lot nicer

yay. its been forever since i had an LD. I tried to do the tasks this morning...

so the first thing i remember is that I am in a van with random DCs. we are speeding down a road because this guy ripped the skin of his arm, it was pretty disgusting with all the fat hanging out and bits and pieces of flesh... okay... this is really random... I decided to do a little check... LD time! from my knowledge i knew i didnt have much time, so i burst out of the van's door and fell on the path next to the road. I looked around, saw I was at my old school. I need to find something to eat... preferrably the green kind... I run up to a DC and asked them for some green eggs and ham. she replies, "I dont have any, my brother does" and points towards him in the distance. stuff that it'll take too long i thought so i changed my mind, I looked for a rainbow. I tried to visualise one and it appeared, further inside the school, im running, and it goes black. ...I pictured being near the rainbow and i was there. the only problem was the rainbow - kinda vertical... it was like a giant plastic rainbow. i tried to climb it but it was too slippery. i made it flat but all the colours were screwed up. it was mainly orange now with patches of purple and yellow. i ran on it and then i kinda lost it.

so there it is. i dont know if its worthy but i felt like posting it, because I liked it. was good... yeah.

Ok, so I just joined in mid-jan and having successfully had 7 controlled lucids and 4 WILDs since I've joined, I am ready to start doing the tasks of the month, although I have to say the green eggs and ham task is kinda gross.

I think I'll try to enter a DR. Seuss world dream scene, where that is all they eat and there are rainbows to walk on everywhere. I'll be thinking about it all week and hopefully this weekend, which is when I have time to LD, I will succeed.

I don't really get all the badges or the name coloring, but I want one

Hopefully next post will be of tasks completed!

I'm sure that you will

i guess walking on a rainbow created out of crayon doesn't count. guess i'll wait till i'm lucid again to get the task done.

wow cool! I did my first advanced task! im so happy
the only thing is, I think the rainbow task is easier. maybe its just me, but i dont really eat in my dreams, nor do I ever have dreams in my kitchen or some random resturaunt.

I did it!!
Finlay, I went to bed last night at about 2 AM.
And I was really sleepy (I can WILD easy this way)
So I said "I am going to LD no matter what"
So I started to WILD. I forced my mind to only monitor my breathing.
so I did, I started to lose cautiousness, (I stopped watching my breathing, and I started to hallucinate). So I started to interact with these.
I then sunk through my bed (I ALWAYS SINK THROUGH THE FLOORS IN MY LDS NOW!!)
Any ways, I was lucid, and started walking around, I then remembered "Rainbow" Then I seen something, and was lost in its beauty, and lost cautiousness....
Then I went to a store (No longer lucid)
And I walked in this room, and they were selling weed, I was so exited, I asked the dude to roll me up a blunt, and he did, it was about the size of a black and mild cigar.
And he handed my a candle to light it. So I did, and I inhaled it, and it felt so good!!!! It tasted like blueberry's, then I inhaled as much as I could, holding it in as long as possible. Then I just keep hitting on it, fast, hard, and long, over and over and over. (I wanted to get really really wasted lol)
Then I felt the effects, it felt so real, Like I was floating, spiny, tunnel vision ect.
Then the dude said "Calm down haha" And grabbed my shoulder to sit me down.
Then I seen a rainbow in the room, I cant remember the colors, but I know it was like a normal rainbow, I could see it, but it was transparent, I then remember "WTF I am dreaming!" Then the high went away, and I still seen the rainbow, and I touched it, and when I did, I felt like a energy wave go through me, then I grabbed it trying to make it solid or somewhat.
And I then grabbed teh sides, and scotted up it, it was very slippery, and hard. It was also in a building and very small.
I tried to make it bigger, but it would not go (I just imagined it being bigger). So I just sat on it. On the top, still in the building.
eventually some more people appeared, and smoked and laughed at they all tried to get on the rainbow but they couldn't.
I hope this counts.
I eventually lost lucidity.

wow, that sounds like an amazing dream! blueberry yum yum lol I had a similar dream, non lucid, where I had a gas mask on me, it felt very real, haha

Well I think it should count...

Yeah, I was so exited that it was blueberry, and I just keep hitting it as fast I could, then it was the most unbelievable high! It was weird, like yeah... Like I inhaled laughing gas strait for like 20 breathes. plus the weed effects, and some lsd effects (I never did lsd, so I only think what its like)

I became lucid and remembered the tasks. I was on my street and was looking for the green eggs and ham. I couldn't find any so I asked a DC. He pointed in a direction and I followed it. I saw a plastic container on the ground and inside was some lunchmeat ham and an egg. The food wasn't green so I willed it to be green. I then ate the ham. It didn't taste very good. I then ate the egg, shell included then went off and tried some flying.

I started to fall, going through misty rainbows in my descent. When I landed on the ground with a soft thud, I saw rainbows everywhere of all shapes and sizes. I willed a big, strong rainbow to appear. I told it that it had to be solid enough to support me (apparently I talk to rainbows in my dreams). It looked kind of like a slide or something that would belong in a playground.

At first it looked like a curved sheet of glass, but for just a moment it looked like weaved metal or plastic. I climbed all the way over it, but then went back to sit at the highest point. I wasn't sure if a pot of gold was part of the task, but I made one appear anyway. There were coins inside, but they all looked like they belonged to an ancient world. Some had Aztec or hispanic designs, others didn't look like coins at all. One in particular caught my attention. It was a rhombus-shaped piece of deep red metal, and it had a simplified picture of a phoenix stamped in to it. It looked like something you'd find deep in a temple. I tried to memorize it, but I could feel the dream urging me to do something else. I tried to eat the coins to see what they would taste like, but I dropped all of them. It was more like something forced them out of my hands. I got the feeling that it was forbidden to eat them.

I tried to stay floating in the air so that the scarier ones like the barracudas couldn't get to me.

I walked into the next room and saw small rodents in one corner, and bird cages that filled the rest of the room. Lovebirds, macaws, cockatiels, cockatoos, parakeets, finches (some were the size of acorns) and very small chickens. The hen was the size of a regular egg, and the chicks were as small as those finches. There were also parrots, and the one that caught my eye was a pastel-colored parrot. Instead of the brilliant reds and blues, it had baby hues of pink and light blue. It had the entire rainbow, actually. I took it out of the cage and put it on my shoulder, pretending to be a pirate. I walked further into the room and saw old, dusty birdhouses.

As I walked by some sinks, I closed my eyes and attempted March's task of eating green eggs and ham (the funny thing is, I don't eat meat). I tried to summon a plate of the food, but then I realized that I didn't want to eat in a room full of furry/feathery animals.

The task didn't work out, so I went to my dream guide's room.

I'm proud of myself. Both of these happened today, and I was able to write about them as soon as I awoke. I think they were both WILDs. I also learned that my DG's name is Dan Vagnagun/Vallahan. He wasn't too clear about the lastname.


Mike: Omg, I want blueberry-flavored pot! I'm jealous of your awesome dream. :]

Awesome dreams everyone! And grats for all the successes!

I'll attempt these but my dreams have suffered greatly in the last couple weeks.
The wings are beautiful though- especially the rainbow one

Nicely done Wolf, I should have thought about the cute vegans when I made the green eggs and ham task Oh well.

Think of it this way - they're green because they're actually made of vegetables.

I like the aquarium/ pet store/ zoo dream, Wolfsbane. Especially the part about the sunfish, my favorite animal . That was very polite of you to refrain from eating the eggs in front of all the birds

interesting rainbow dreams coming up - i see im not the only one that found the rainbows a little slippery.. yeah. still have to eat the green eggs and ham too haha.

I tried the green eggs and ham one again but I could only make some weird mixture of brocoli(sp) and green soup appear in a bowl. ergh.
