    Journals From The Void

    Formatting
    (Starting As of March 5, 2018, because I know I'm close now!)

    Lines


    • Lines indicate a drastic division in what I'm writing before and after the line. They may appear as multiple lines on some devices, because I'm too lazy to try to figure out textbox scaling.




    1. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      • Indicates a shift from dream to post-dream notes, or from pre-dream notes to a dream. Notes will not be color-coded when separated from the dream by this line.

    2. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Title, info)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      • Indicates a switch from one dream to another. Has the title of the following dream, as well as info about the dream, between two of the lines. This is not required for the title and information of the first entry of a date.

    3. **************************************(Date)****** *******************************************
      • Marks a shift in days if I get lazy and decide to post multiple days' entries on one day.




    In-Text Formatting



    • The in-text formatting indicates how to interpret what is written. If you know basic grammar, you should be good for the most part when reading my DJ.

    Color-Coding


    • The color-coding of the text indicates a detail about what is written.



    1. Black -- Non-lucid dream, clear
    2. Green -- Non-lucid dream, hazy
    3. Yellow -- Somewhat aware of the fact that I am dreaming; semi-lucid
    4. Red -- Lucid, clear dream
    5. Orange -- Lucid, hazy dream
    6. Purple -- A thought that I'm having in the dream
    7. Blue -- Comments on something in a dream (not actually from the dream), usually in parenthesis



    These formatting choices may change as I write more and more dreams.

      So, I've not been on DV recently, as I was going through some important family stuff. However, I'm back with a story about my first full, and intentional lucid experience. It felt about 3 hours long, but, as I didn't have my DJ nor Internet, and it happened 3 days ago, I'm only able to remember some bits.

      ************************************************** ***********

      I don't remember the first portion of it, but I spontaneously plug my nose to do a reality check. I can breathe. What a strange feeling, breathing through a plugged nose. I realize I'm dreaming and attain mild lucidity. First and foremost, I try to fly, naturally. I fall flat on my face. I'm standing up again, and remember reading somewhere that a good way to fly in a dream was to hop, expecting your jumps to get higher and higher as you go. I try it, but my jumping size doesn't increase.

      'No matter,' I think to myself. I decide to explore. I don't remember anything else up until seeing the glass building a while later. I imagine that it's a dungeon and rush inside, and I am greeted with none other than the pits of hell. There's a save point, and I recognize that I'm dreaming again, 'catching' my falling lucidity by doing the same reality check, and admiring the hell-room.

      The dream restarts, and I do the exact same things, except without lucidity. It restarts again, and I am lucid once again. I head down to the same place, except wanting to go past it this time. However, to my surprise, a rich guy is standing on some boxes with a megaphone, advertising the dungeon. I was angered, and woke up.

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

      So yeah, that was fun. I'm glad I didn't wake up instantly, though I wish I had taken more time to check out the surroundings. It was also interesting that it restarted not once, but twice.
