    The Stories of my Dreaming Mind

    Here you will find the stories of my dreaming mind.

    My main goal with lucid dreaming is to become a Master Lucid Dreamer and create an alternate universe in my mind that I would escape to each night. This world will be a world with continuity, similar to the real world where one remembers what happened the day before and the week before, etc. - both in dream reality and real reality, meaning I will have to be as conscious in these dreams as possible. I will also wake up in the dream in the same location where I left it. The only difference between my world and the real world would be that in my world there will be no limitations.I suppose you could say this is very similar to the idea in Avatar, but this idea wasn't inspired by that movie, just so you know. Hopefully the continuity thing is even possible, but that I would soon discover when I master lucid dreaming!!!

    I have pretty good dream recall already, but am mostly creating this dream journal so that I can incorporate it into my daily routine so that I am more motivated to achieve this goal of becoming a Master Lucid Dreamer. I hope you enjoy my dreams!

    1. A Few Dream Fragments/Short Dreams, REALLY Beautiful Dream that I WBTB to At The End.

      by , 10-23-2011 at 05:34 PM (The Stories of my Dreaming Mind)
      I am going into the hallway of the house, leaving the wooden glass door to the hallway open, knowingly. Once I start opening the door to the outside, my cats and I think my bird also rush into the hallway, and Leeroy gets out. I panic a little, closing the door behind me and calling for Leeroy to come back. He's hyper and running around everywhere, disappearing into the bushes and coming back out of them. When I call him and hold out my arms, he comes running to me. I see that he's not going to run away forever, so I let him enjoy himself for now. He starts flying up to the tree branches (shape-shifted into a bird but he is still Leeroy the cat) he goes higher and higher and farther and farther in the trees, and I just follow him to make sure he's okay throughout. Then he flies back to me himself, and I take him back inside. I feel pity for Tiger, who didn't get to go outside. I think I ask mom or someone if I could take her out too, and I think she said no. Then the dream ends.

      I am with my family and Kate, at some tourist place. We are hanging out in the building we are staying at. This place is very similar to the place that I usually go to Joy's house in my dreams.
      I've noticed that whenever going to Joy's house in a dream, it is always the same gloomy, dead tree, muddy place with a big house. This is very different from her house in real life. I find it interesting though, as if my dream is just a parallel reality and her house is always the same but different from this reality in waking life. We find out about some haunted house, where you have to be at least 16 to enter. I say "Well if that's the age limit it must be really scary, I'm not going." I said this mainly to my brother and his girlfriend/fiancee, Kate. They laugh. We continue talking, but I am mostly quiet, listening to our conversation mostly and contributing when I have something to say.

      Then we are at the haunted house. Somehow I forget that this is the haunted house until later, because it's not the typical haunted house. There is a girl
      who looks exactly like Cora but I don't question this who starts talking to us. The house is white, and empty. Sort of like the Nobody's castle from Kingdom Hearts 2. She is a psycho, and whenever someone says something that could possibly be taken the wrong way, she goes against them and threatens to kill them. I don't remember who she wanted to kill out of my family. For a short while, she wanted to kill me, pointing a knife at me, but then I got on her good side by taking things from her point of view and respecting her and loving her instead of fearing her. We became friends. She was still against the rest of my family, but then I told them that she just needs to be understood and befriended. We are taking up a lot of time. The next haunted house visitors come in and we are still there, so they continue to wait near the entrance. Later we find that there are also extremely scary machines that could actually kill someone, they were mostly drills. I watched the next visitors almost get killed, or get killed by one of those drills. Then we leave and I realize that that was the haunted house. I agree with myself that it was a very creative idea to make the main attraction of this haunted house be the psychotic girl, who later talks to me and turns out to be normal. I find out that this is one of the best haunted houses in the world.

      I am at future shop with Zitian. We don't know each other very well. I ask him a bunch of questions - do you play final fantasy games? He says he only has played FFIX. I say "Oh yeah, the one with the Zidane and those other people" he's like "yeah." I think about asking him about Disney movies since I know from stalking his Facebook that he loves them.
      We continue to browse games at future shop. As we are about to start out, I remember that Sims 3 Pets is out, and get all excited and ask if we could go back and find it. He says sure. So we go and I'm all excited and hyper at this point, and he seems bored.
      We continue talking about irrelevant things and other things, and I think at one point I ask him about those Disney movies, and he's like "Oh, yeah! I love Disney movies!" so we talk about that for a while but he still seems disinterested.
      We get outside, and his mom drives in and they offer to drive me home. I get in the car, and realize they don't even know where I live. I ignore this fact and assume that they must know if they are not asking. His mom is pretty, and she talks to me. Zitian is quiet. Then his mom says "Thank-you!" in a reminding or mocking manner, and I remember to thank them for the drive. I feel a little bad and awkward now, but I remember to stay positive and energetic because that makes me feel good AND attracts people to me, so I do. I'm more excited and I start talking again to Zitian now. He's more excited now too, smiling when he talks. I say, "We should hang out more often!" "Yeah" And we both say around the same time: "Since we don't have classes together and never get to see each-other!" We laugh. Then I realize - Hey, now that I've befriended him, it shouldn't be a bad thing to talk to him on Facebook etc! Yay~! Then we get to my driveway, and I say thanks for the ride and say goodbye. I walk home happy, but also a little upset because I was probably boring Zitian most of the time, but then I realized - you know what? I probably was just focusing negatively and wasn't noticing how interested he really was in our conversation.
      The end of this dream could have been a prequel to the first and second dreams written above.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      I am outside of my house, in a completely different setting however. The dreams above were connected to each other, but this one was by itself. Anyway. I am outside of my house. The neighborhood is now placed beside a beach, my side of the neighborhood closest to the shore. I am walking out of the house, waiting for my slowpoke parents to get ready and go with me. Then they start walking. There are soooo many beautiful areas in the neighborhood now, none of which I had known before. I don't question this fact however. The grasses are covered with beautiful flowers, and the trees have the perfect location and shape to allow the perfect amount of sunlight to illuminate the flowered grass. There is a nice grass/flower bed near on the parking lot of my section of the neighborhood. I lie down and watch the cloudless sky. I feel the sun on my skin and everything is beautiful, so beautiful. I go back to my parents and suggest they lie down on the grass and watch the sky together. Mom says that's a nice idea but dad hates the idea, he's too lazy to lie down right now, he's headed somewhere blah blah blah. I ignore them. I run around, discovering new beautiful places of my neighborhood. There is a climbable tree that I go and manage to sit on, fairly high up. I view the meadow area next to me. There are flowers everywhere, and the warmth of the sun and trees is felt wholly. This was a very vivid dream. My parents are walking slowly, I think, so I have a lot of time to enjoy the area.
      I walk down above my section of the neighborhood. I view the ocean from above, and all the nature to my left. The beauty was seriously so indescribable! It was sooo beautiful and vivid was the beauty everywhere! this is one of the only dreams I've had where I can actually feel the warm sun and see the sky and everything shining and sparkling and just soooo beautiful words cannot describe at all!
      Then I walk back to the meadow around, down towards my parents. I lie down in the tall grass and flowers, and view the sky and few sunny clouds. I feel soo good. Then I sit up, hugging my legs to my chest. I cal to my mom, telling her how beautiful it all is! She agrees, but keeps walking. I think she then came and sat down next to me in the grass. I don't know where dad was at this point. I talk about everything beautiful. Then I feel something on the back on my thighs, something lights, brushing my skin. It crawls onto my hand and it is a large spider! My mom says it's a tarantula and she freaks out slightly. I try to brush it off, for a while it won't go and my mom is telling me to stop because it's a tarantula and it could hurt me, and then finally I have slapped it off of my hand.


      I wake up, searching for any sign of a spider on my arm. I still feel the spider on me from the dream. I am not completely fearful because I assume it was just the dream, and not a body signal from real life. I notice that my heart was beating normally, and I like the fact that my body isn't affected by my dreams. Then I start imagining myself walking from my house in the same dream, running through the neighborhood, and when I arrive back to the climbable tree and view the meadow, I am back in the dream again. During the rest of the dream I think I just sit there enjoying everything, my parents aren't there and it is only me and my beautiful dreamscape.
    2. Confusing Fragmented Dream WBTB

      by , 10-21-2011 at 06:31 PM (The Stories of my Dreaming Mind)
      I kept waking up in the morning but didn't want my dream to stop so I kept returning to them. I lost count of how many times I WBTB. The dreams were all connected as well, it was all in the same dream but I can't remember the order of everything so I will post things in parts. Probably very confusing parts. Only the environment and landscapes of this dream were vivid, but the people seemed to be very foggy, and some parts were just the foggiest ever.

      I am playing/am inside final fantasy 1 or something. The location is the forest road from my house, from the community center. The road is different than in real life, but I know it is the same road in the dream. The characters looks like they do in the actual game as I remember them, especially if viewed from above, and I am just me. There is a nice field of white flowers and a stream that we cross that I view and appreciate the view of before leaving it behind. I think "I'll see this place again." It was a familiar field, I think I was there before in another dream. I move on.

      I am at the lockers on the left wall in the hallway from the north of the main lobby. I am taking two or three lockers and storing them with clothes. These clothes keep reassembling and reorganizing and disappearing and reappearing once I take my eye off the ones I already put in. At the top of the lockers are small lockers with rectangular holes at the bottom for ventilation. I put my shoes in there. Then I stack my clothes in the larger locker area below it. Someone asks me about how I am putting clothes in my locker, they seem to be questioning it a little but seemingly, after I tell them what I am doing or why, they understand and leave.
      I have a feeling this part is connected with the cottage beach parts later on.

      I am at the back field of the school, and it is nighttime and very creepy. I am near a metal structure of some kind, with bare trees scattered across the landscape, and dead leaves covering the ground. It feels like Halloween. Wes from Wong Fu Productions is standing under the metal structure and walks towards me. I know him in the dream, and we talk like we are friends. He gives off a bit of a creepy feeling though, I think to myself, and I don't feel interested in him romantically although attracted by his appearance. We walk downward toward and then around the side of the school.

      Then we are in cottage country or something, walking down a white rock or pebble path. The light looks like the sun is setting to the left of us. On the left there is an ocean or a lake, and a path leading to a deck that belongs to my property. We walk down there, get to the deck and watch the orange sun on the ocean water. The trees around us are mostly coniferous, and the environment is warm and comfortable. Then we smell smoke or fire and hear an alarm. At first we ignore it, but then it goes louder. The cottage/beach house next to us has a fire! We see some smoke rising from the house, and a bit of the fire. We talk about something. and then
      I think I might've gone into that house, but I might just be confusing it with a memory from another dream. Too foggy to tell. I also have a vague and foggy memory of going swimming in these sun setting waters.

      I am at school, in the main lobby, sitting with many other people around that I recognize as being glee auditions, and Sarah, and other people. We are awaiting the results of who got into glee club. There is a school television standing in front of us. We are facing the wall that the doors are on, but are not at the doors, we are sitting in the open between the hallway and the lobby. The television starts playing. My nervous trying-to-calm-down breathing is showcased at the beginning for humour. I am embarrassed, and people laugh. Then it is showing every audition or every person. I don't recall the result of whether I got in or not, but I think I did.

      Then the locker scene comes back on I think.

      Then I am waiting at a bus stop to get home. I talk with Barbara, and we walk down the sloped sidewalk. We cross some train tracks, and then I see my bus going by. I run to catch up with it, but my finger gets trapped in the train tracks, and so does my foot, and I don't even notice the sounds of the train coming in. Every one is screaming for me to get outta there. I panic, try to get out, but then accept it and the train runs over my index finger and my other arm or some limb I can't pinpoint. I don't feel much pain, and I think, that wasn't so bad. But I realize it was probably the suddenness of the even that caused me to not notice the pain. I keep walking up, in shock. Every one is staring in shock. There there is a fire starting. There's fire everywhere around me, and I feel the fire scorching my body, again not as painful as I expected.

      After the fire subsides, I manage to still be alive. There doesn't seem to be anyone around me. I keep walking, the bus is gone. Suddenly I find out I have super powers, and I think it is from the train track and the fire that I have these powers. I find myself at a great height above the ground, and as I fall, I am able to slow down the impact and land safely and awesomely with circular fire beams around my feet and hands, which then leave a mark on the grass. I play around with this. Wes is there, and I tell him of this awesome power I now have. He tells me it's probably from the fire etc. I agree. Then things turn into a journey again, like the part in the beginning with final fantasy 1. However, in this part I see Giotto from Reborn, Tsuna - who in the dream is called 'Sanada' - a name that in waking life I wouldn't be able to recall, but interestingly enough, in the dream, I did. - and when I hear someone call him Sanada, then he turns into Tsuna and I remember who he is. We continue our journey. We are on a ridge or something, I can't describe it very well, but it's the type of place that you would find in a grassy setting in a final fantasy game, but with extra flowers around to decorate and beautify the landscape. There is some sort of conflict, and we are arguing over a mistake one of us (I think it was me) made in a battle previously. Some other stuff happens that I can't pinpoint on what it was,
      and then I wake up.

      Then I go back to sleep, and I dream of being in the living room of my house. There is a black toilet beside Jerry cage. I suddenly need to poo, and I think it is probably alright to use this toilet so I do. Then I have worries over if it is even connected to the plumbing system. Afterwards, I find out that this toilet is going to be given to a family friend of my mom's, Iva. I panic, and try to excuse myself and reason with my mom. She seems to understand, or is just being passive, and ends up having to clean out the toilet... Then I am upstairs, avoiding any confrontation, and I hear my brother talking to my mom about it, and I feel embarrassed, but I ignore them talking. Then I go back downstairs when my brother leaves, and ask my mom about something whatever and more foggy stuff happens, and then I wake up for the last time.

      Like I said, the order that these are in might not even be correct, parts were repeated and reorganized, re experienced each time I WBTB, maybe there were even more parts that I am missing, but this is the jist of it I guess.
    3. Some notes

      by , 10-19-2011 at 02:34 PM (The Stories of my Dreaming Mind)
      Okay. With the dreams I had two days ago, I was able to remember them so well all up until the afternoon. For some reason now, my dreams are a bit hazier so I'll actually write some dream notes down in the morning, right when I wake up.

      I also seem to automatically wake up around 4:34AM every night. I love how the body and mind works together. It's like, my body knows I want to try out the WILD technique, so it wakes up so that I don't have to be alarmed in order to do it. (The alarm usually causes me to forget my dreams immediately)

      I also realized that my first close to successful WILD was actually when I was sleeping on the couch for about an hour, woke up, went to the washroom, chatted with my mom, and then went to my bed to sleep.
      Strangely, I wasn't even really trying to WILD at first, but the strange sensations reminded me that this would be a good time to try it. And I got so close!

      I think I'll try having myself wake up every time I sleep for the first hour, and try the WILD at that time. Waking up in the middle of the night trying to WILD is a bit of a hassle anyway... Plus I'm sometimes scared of the dark in the middle of the night

      I think it will be more successful the next time I try. Wish me luck!
