Kitties

- I was with a small group of people exploring a very old, abandoned house which was possibly haunted. Despite its age, it seemed fairly clean and bright. The group was 4 other people besides me - S was there, as well as a guy in my English class, A, and others I don't know. It was kind of scary, though I can't remember where the haunted part came in. We were in a room that had various containers full of old British coins on a shelf. They were apparently not used as currency anymore, but we were thinking we could maybe sell them on eBay or something.

I was considering dumping a big jar of coins onto the floor to look at them, but suddenly, we heard a dog bark. We weren't supposed to be in the house. Everyone froze for a second, then someone said, "Run!". I ended up being left behind, as I'm a slow runner. I charged down the hall at the front door, which was red with gold designs on it and very wide, but it opened just before I touched it. Turned out an old guy had opened it. He grabbed me as I tried to run by.

We exited onto a sort of veranda that was green and led onto a big nice grassy field. I saw my friends standing in a row just a few feet behind the old guy. He was holding onto my shoulders lightly, facing the opposite direction from me and standing to the side, just telling me quietly not to run. My friends started saying, "just run!". I tried running from him, and was surprised when it was easy to escape.

We kept running away from the house. I was running as fast as I could, but was getting really tired and my legs really hurt from trying to keep up. Then it got a bit weird and hard to understand... It was then that they told me I'd had something "installed"(?) which was like an app or something into my body (not permanent) that gave me some characteristics of a bull, which explained why I was strong enough to get away from the old guy. Everyone else had one, too, of different animals, though the only one I remember was a goat. They told me it was an experimental thing we were being subjected to, but I didn't get the impression it was dangerous, or feel bad about it or anything. In my mind's eye I saw "icons" for each of them. The other four were in a row, with mine just underneath. They all looked like Adobe icons and were all different colours; I think mine might have been teal.


- Another really weird one, lol, and it's a bit fuzzy. I was with the same group of people, but it was a separate dream. We were discussing underwear for some reason, and there was a pyramid of rolled-up squares of fabric next to us which we referred to as underwear, even though they were much too big and square. They were all white except one which was light blue. A took some, put them in his backpack, and left.

I left, too, and went to this big indoor playground structure thing. It was all red/yellow/blue and I think there was also a fountain. I wanted to explore it, but I had to wait, because I needed to watch this thing that was happening. It was like a news report by this girl, but she was actually there, and I think it may have been being broadcasted live.

She was standing in a big blue mostly empty area by a wall, talking to a camera. She had a picture of a brightly coloured parrot on a screen on the wall to her right. She said (exact words): "We've decided that parakeets are now allowed to have sex with whales, because parakeets are actually very well hung." xD This also necessitated creating pop-tarts for birds for some reason, which she brought out to show us. It was just a bag of mini pop-tarts, like maybe an inch long (I actually really want these now) and she was saying sarcastically, "We received complaints from people saying they got their pop-tarts after the expiration date, and they had gone bad, so we figured, pshh, we'll just put any old date on these ones, who cares..." That's about all I remember.

I had a pretty good lucid, I wish I could remember more of it. So last night/this morning I fell asleep around 3am after being on DV for an hour or two writing and reading DJ entries, woke up around 6am, went and brushed my teeth and put stuff away and went back to sleep shortly after 6. I had this dream and woke up again around 9:30 to write down what I could.


I'm not sure how I became lucid or anything. I don't remember much about the first part of the dream, only stuff towards the end. The environment was almost too realistic. I had to keep doing nose plug RCs to know I was still dreaming, because that was the only one that worked. My hands were normal, clocks didn't change (the alarm clock in my room said 10:42), technology worked fine, and text was readable. I was in my room for most of the parts I can remember, and everything looked completely normal; even the amount of light coming through the curtains and the position of the door were around the same when I woke up. I tried to make magic with my hands for the first time, but it didn't work. I also wanted to jump out of my window and fly around, but I couldn't get through the window for some reason. So basically there wasn't a whole lot to do.

I remember thinking in the dream that it was really long and that it seemed to have been around an hour. I even considered that things could have just jumped forward to make it seem like more time had passed, but I remembered everything that had happened up to that point. (wish I could now lol) I thought once or twice about waking up but quickly got the idea out of my mind.

I remember something about watching a ~10 minute long youtube video on my laptop, and that I skipped back to earlier in the video at one point. I think it was funny, and I think there was an old man with a beard in it, wearing a yellow coat in a snowy place. I was also talking to N on MSN. Everything on the computer was working completely normally. N was also dreaming apparently, and was telling me what was happening. At one point he apparently woke up but was still talking to me. He was like 'man do you know what I was dreaming about?' and I was like 'yeah I wrote it all down as you were telling me!' He then started rereading the conversation, at one point being like 'wait what?' because a lot of it was nonsensical words and gibberish. He mentioned one made-up word that started with M and was 5-6 letters, but I don't remember what it was. He said 'brb' at 1:09, but came back a minute or two later, and the last message in the convo I remember seeing was at 1:11 (PM I think).

Trying to entertain myself in my room, I started dancing at one point for some reason, but got tired very quickly. I was disappointed that I would get that tired in a dream.

It was nearing the end here and I was starting to lose lucidity. I looked out my window and saw a whole bunch of kids milling around in my neighbour's backyard. I was afraid they would be able to see me and ducked down. After that I took my laptop and went downstairs. My mom was there on the chair. I put my laptop down on the couch and went somewhere else for a minute, then came back and saw the laptop was open to a folder full of pictures I didn't recognize and it was downloading them from somewhere. I couldn't remember if I'd left my laptop in there with my mom all of a sudden and got worried that there were bad pictures on there and she saw them, but she didn't say anything.

Suddenly everything started to fade and I realized I was going to wake up. I couldn't feel my body and my vision was just a computer screen showing a pictures folder again, I don't remember what they were. There was a little orange arrow in between two of them that I knew was 'marking my place' somehow. I started to hear voices asking me things like, "Hey, can you hear us? Is this okay?" It was as if I was just waking up from some kind of experiment or surgery.

Then I found myself in my bed, did an RC and was awake. I grabbed my iPod to record what I could, annoyed that I forgot a lot of it.

This wasn't part of the same dream I don't think, but I dunno when it was so I'll put it here. It was just a fragment where there was this weird creepy TV show or something with these two creepy guys, and I was there with someone else while they were filming it, and I think there were a bunch of kids around too. We'd seen the script or something saying they were going to bring out a baby. They came out with this bag, said something and took out this figure probably around 6 inches long. It was apparently the baby and I couldn't really tell if it was a living thing or not, it looked like a Barbie doll except with kind of strange angular body shapes, and it was moving constantly. I was pretty sure it was just a doll though.


All that text and hardly anything actually happened, lol. After this accidental WBTB, I think I'll try doing one on purpose soon, after 3 hours, and see if I have any luck.

I was in an old looking house that had many flights of stairs. It was made almost entirely of darkish brown wood, including the walls. I was with some guy and we were trying to get out of the house. We had to run down all the stairs to get to the door at the bottom. But every time you went down a staircase, a really freaky disembodied face/mask kinda thing would zoom directly at your face. It wouldn't touch you or hurt you, but they were all different and all freaky lol. The faces scared me, so I always made the guy go a bit ahead of me, and covered my eyes with my hands.

Finally we were at the bottom and I ran out of the door first. I flopped down on my back on a patch of soft grass in front of the house. It was really sunny and warm and nice. The guy joined me soon after and laid down with his head near mine and his feet in the opposite direction. Then a girl came over wearing a rainbow sweater. She started saying things like, "Oh, this must be your time together, I'd better leave you two alone," etc and this made me uncomfortable, so to change the subject, I looked down at my shorts and said disinterestedly, "Oh, is there a cricket on me?" There actually was, so I started trying to pick it up.

It's really different here but for some reason I feel like it was part of the same dream. I was rummaging in the fridge in some house and eating sushi and talking with a friend who was there about a new j-pop group that was debuting soon. I was saying there were too many that were all the same, and that there were always too many members, then whoever else was there said they didn't like SNSD, except very quietly and weirdly and I was like 'what?'. Then they came on TV or something. It was a group of maybe 20 japanese idols, all dressed in white on a white/silver background. One of them had blonde wavy pigtails. Then they started singing and dancing to "Special Generation" and I was like "oh...it's a cover" sounding disappointed for some reason.


I realized later on that I'm pretttty sure the creepy faces zooming at me came from playing LSD Dream Emulator, somehow. xD I dunno, it just reminds me of it.
