I was in a park sitting on a bench looking into a koi pond and watching the fish swimming around there. Sitting there and watching the fish was very relaxing, there was a gentle breeze blowing through the trees and that felt good. It wasn't hot as I would have expected it to be in the desert in the summer, the temperature was perfect, and I was feeling so relaxed I thought I might fall asleep sitting on the bench, which is not normal for me to be able to sleep on a park bench in a sitting position. I decided this would be a wonderful setting to get some stuff done on my laptop. I was about to get up and go get my laptop when I looked around. As I sometimes do IWL, I got a strange sensation that everything around me was a dream, it is weird when it happens IWL, and it usually triggers me to do a RC, so I did that now and found out I was dreaming!

I now recognized the place for what it was, the koi pond inside the biodome. Now it was time to remember my goals for this. One of my goals was to meet up with BlakeE45 right here in the biodome, that should be easy. I sat there and watched the colorful fish for a while longer, but now that I knew I was dreaming I felt impatient to do something instead of just waiting there. I didn't want to leave only to have BlakeE45 show up shortly later, though. Well, maybe I should just try to track BlakeE45 down and go to him. It would certainly be better than sitting here in the biodome waiting and very likely losing the dream while I waited… So I got up and focused on opening a portal to wherever Blake happened to be right now. It took a bit of focus, but finally the portal opened, and I stepped through it.

I stepped out on the other side to be in a bus, a double decker bus to be specific. This was surely the moon bus, I figured BlakeE45 had been using the moon bus to get to the moon since he has no doubt heard of the bus when talking to Nomad. I looked down the aisle and saw some of the seats were occupied by passengers, many seats were empty, and then I spotted BlakeE45 there. I am pretty sure that this isn't what BlakeE45 actually looks like, but it is what I saw due to a Blake I know IWL, and it is what brought the name Blake to mind the instant I saw him. A rather heavy young white man, in his 20's, his weight clearly comes from a combination of fat and muscle, indicating he is no weakling. He has a sly looking smile, friendly eyes, and a friendly joking attitude. His brown hair came down to about his ears. Right now he was behaving rather strangely, though. He was doing something at the window of the bus…

I approached BlakeE45 and asked him what he was doing. I don't think he heard me, as he didn't respond, he just continued to the next seat and climbed over a confused person to get to the window on that row. I watched him for a couple minutes before approaching him again. I still couldn't tell what he was doing with the window, bit I figured he could tell me once he was lucid. I touched him on the shoulder and I asked him if he realized he was dreaming. He looked at me strangely and chuckled, then went back to the window. I repeated to him that he was dreaming and should do a RC. He turned around and asked if I really expected him to believe this was all a dream. I said yes. He looked around, looked back at me, then said, "Bullshit!" before going back to the windows. I said no, it wasn't bullshit, this was definitely a dream. He clearly wasn't listening to me any longer, and it was about here that my cat woke me up by rubbing her face on my face and purring… =^_^=

Dream 1:

I am with my mom and brother in a van in a hotel parking lot, and it's raining. We drive around the hotel along a circular road and come back to the hotel. We park and my mom gets out. She steals two purses (completely unlike her) from the back of a truck and we go into the hotel. We are in this huge hotel room for a couple of minute just hanging around. (I wake up)

Dream 2:

I come into a room with stairs leading down to a dark body of water (looks like a river but the water is still). A man is on the stairs and tosses me an alka seltzer (he calls it a different name - i forget what he called it). I tell him "no thank you" and toss it back. He drops it, so I bend down and pick it up. I again toss it to him, he misses, and it falls down into the water. I try hard to grab it but cannot seem to grasp it. It starts floating out further into the water - I feel bad I will have lost his alka seltzer and get in the water to retrieve it. I suddenly become frightened like I've been tricked. Just as this feeling comes a man pops out of the water and I know he is there to harm me. (I wake up)

Waking day into a dream. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

If you follow my journal you will know it was Tuesday to Wednesday, which means 05:30 am wake up to drive my wife, so not an awesome night. I was very close to complete the ToTM for August, a couple more hours and I would turn lucid. Two fragments and one decent dream:

Second:

- Olive Oil store.
- Tracey (co-worker)
- Raffing (putting a cord to make the Olive Oil bottles look nicely)
- Talking about dreams and Astral Projection.
- The scenerry changes.
- Something about unicorns and the task of the month.
- Battles taking place throughout mirrors.
- I was determined to turn lucid and complete the ToTY


Missed dream sings:
- The Olive Oil Store.
- The whole scenery about the store. It was entirely brought from daily residue, basically I lived that for real during the day. We have been talking and raffing bottles for a good four hours.
- People coming out from mirrors.
- Unicorns.
- The fact of turning lucid in the dream without turning for real.

What I would have done if lucid:
- The ToTM.

Early morning fragment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

If you follow my journal you will know it was Tuesday to Wednesday, which means 05:30 am wake up to drive my wife, so not an awesome night. I was very close to complete the ToTM for August, a couple more hours and I would turn lucid. Two fragments and one decent dream:

First:

- I was outdoors.
- I was in the country.
- It was sunny.
- A few DC.
- We were talking about stuff.

Missed dream sings:
- Unknown.

What I would have done if lucid:
- Unknown.

Type: regular dream.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

For the duration of this dream, I was in a pretty average-looking classroom that had white walls and gray molding, while the size of the room must have been average, the shape rectangular. The carpet looked like teal Berber with bits and pieces of purple. Light tan desks with steel legs (not the wooden variety) were arranged in neat rows with even spacing. Each had a brown plastic chair, again with steel legs, pushed underneath. There was a long white board at the front of the room and the desks faced that direction.

The time must have been around lunch break.

At my school, people tend to eat in classrooms with their friends instead of in the cafeteria, so this reflected in the dream. There were around fifteen different students scattered around the room; four or five of them were in a close cluster in one corner in front of the white board.

One of the students was leaning back in her chair, with another one from the adjacent desk pulled close to her; her food and drink was on the chair as it acted like a table.

There were no other free chairs in that cluster of students, so I asked her if I could sit down, and she move her items to the desk. She pulled her food to one side of the chair; it was better than before but now I only had half of it to sit on. I didn't argue and instead just laughed and shrugged.

The student sipped some of her juice. I pulled out a generic sandwich from a blue fabric lunchbox that suddenly just appeared on the table. A student had also appeared on the other end of the table, her chair pulled in. She was eating a green salad with a less-viscous version of orange mandarin dressing. As she took a mouthful, she looked past me and suddenly laughed, getting a small piece of romaine on my leg.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry," she said, bursting out laughing and slightly covering her mouth. "At least I think that piece was clean."

(...What?)
