    1. First Lucid

      by , 08-24-2010 at 11:52 PM
      My first (seemingly) lucid dream, using the WILD technique.

      This is my first ever attempt at lucid dreaming and i decided to jump into the deep end and try wild.

      I had been in bed for about an hour and a half, trying to keep stay remain awake, while my body went to sleep.

      It seemed to happen, my eyes were twitching very fast then suddenly it felt as i fell through the mattress and started spinning.

      What happened next is a bit of a mystery to me, it seems that i had a false awakening, because immediately after i woke up in bed, but failed to remember to do reality checks, i then fell asleep again. Upon falling asleep i dreamt i was in a white room, with a door infront of me and images of sponge bob circled the door. Upon opening it i woke up again, this time i did reality checks and i was indeed awake.

      1. Mike Rowe (?) and I were on a crane in the middle of the ocean. It was 50 feet above the ocean (according to Mike). He was walking out on the long part of the crane for some reason, and he was saying that he hated water and heights. I took his place out on the crane, but shortly after, I fell off. I fell for a really long time, then I went on to another dream.

      2. I realized that I was dreaming, remembering nothing prior to this realization. As soon as I realized this though, I "woke up" but I didn't actually wake up. It looked as if I did though, because I was in my house in my bed. This ended all lucidity.

      3. After I "woke up" into this dream, I realized that it was 9:30 (according to the digital clock in my room). I was late for school. I just tried to go back to sleep because I figured it was too late to go to school anyway. Then my sister and one of her friends came into my room and explained why we were late for school. They said that they were trading folders, so they hadn't left for school yet.

      First lucid dream (even if it wasn't anything) in a long time, so I'm happy for that.
    3. stunts

      by , 08-24-2010 at 08:54 PM (limitless' limits)
      So i got my recall back, but i could only recall one dream this morning..

      I was at some sort of camp, and we were trying to raise money for whatever reason, so we choreographed a stunt routine and put on a little show for children.. I know that in the end we raised $3,000!
      Everyone that was there were old friends, but i knew i was closer to the ones that i didnt know once i woke up. The floor that we were preforming on had a bit of a give, kinda like a boxing ring. So it was easier to jump and do flips with a bit of height. But for some reason, i was jumping higher then everyone else, i was doing crazy flips as if i was on a trampoline. I knew it was really fun, but the guys in the group got mad at me, they though i was showing off.
      So i followed one of the girls into a hallway, she told me there were snacks left. I cant quite remember what happened in that room, but that was where we were before and after the performance. Kinda like the back stage..
      My dream ended when the girl had disappeared in front of me, and i looked down the hallway and she was running back to the group. I must have realized that this was a dream because i woke up due to the confusion Asking myself, "how did she get over there?"

    4. First Attempt at WILD

      by , 08-24-2010 at 08:00 PM (One Must Imagine Sisyphus Happy)
      I had a poor night's sleep after a WBTB and was in bed for hours. I decided to try WILD as a last ditch effort. I lay still for I think about 30 minutes. I was counting my breaths. I started to feel sleep paralysis and was encouraged. At some point I stopped counting and later felt the "sink through the mattress" experience. I tried to focus on my dream body and my hands; I was lucid for just a few seconds. But I got excited and didn't know what to do next. My attention drifted back to my real body and I lost the dream. I tried remaining motionless for another 30 minutes or so. I felt the onset of SP again but it never came to anything. Eventually I gave up.

    5. Realistic nightmare (followed by false awakening?)

      by , 08-24-2010 at 07:34 PM
      Last night I had horrible sleep. Slept for only small fragments of time only to wake up either too hot or too cold or uncomfortable. I had vivid dreams, but the last one I remembered, I was following my parents somewhere with my scooter. My mom was driving her sedan. They were already angry with me. Much to my dismay, they took a detour through this sandy forrest and i had to beep for them to stop. Exasperated, they threw a rope out of the window and i grabbed on. They towed me on the scooter for a few miles while i'm panicking because its so heavy and I'm afraid they're going to leave me and i'll be lost. I hooked the rope to the steering wheel. They start going faster, and due to some drastic turn near a hill the rope gets caught on some tree branch high in the sky (obviously the physics don't make sense in waking life). They don't notice and keep driving. I am lifted off the ground towards the tree branch as my parents accelerate. I panick and don't know whether to jump off or to somehow unhook my scooter first. And after what seems like a long hesitation i decide to unhook the scooter, and the scooter and myself falls to the ground. Usually I would wake up at this point. Instead i am pacing back and forth furious with my parents, panicked because I am lost. Eventually, it starts to get dark and my parents come back for me, and they're upset with me and take no responsibility. They ask me what I've been doing, and ask me if I'm drunk, suspecting foul play and debauch. I assure them that I am not. I go home, and go to sleep, depressed, tired, wanting the day to be over. I wake up in some tall bunk bed in a room with manilla white walls. There are other twenty year old men there who all look either indifferent and bored or angry. I am really confused. I have no idea why I've woken up here. I go to the front desk and ask what has happened, and they sternly command me to get some rest. I talk to some of the other guys there and they just smirk at me and use condescending words. It's like they're all referring to some incident that i am unaware of, and nobody actually answers my questions directly. One guy tries to be nice and says "yea, no use worrying about it" and later he says "breakfast will be here soon." I end up talking to one of the nurses, who tells me that i was involuntarily committed. That i had gotten drunk the night before and had gone on a rampage. I try to explain to them that its impossible and that i must have been sleep walking. I smell so bad because i must have put on this hat i left in the garage that actually had a rotten banana underneath it that was starting to ferment. My eyes were bloodshot because i have insomnia and i'm taking sleeping meds which can sometimes make me feel doped up but not sleepy. All of a sudden i realize how absurd i sound, the nurse just looks at me like "yea, that's what a crazy alcoholic WOULD say." I realize that I am an alcoholic and even though I have been trying to stay sober, and even though i don't remember getting drunk or even thinking about getting drunk, i must have done it -- because i'm really sick. I feel guilty and i call my parents who are nearly crying and want to know why i did it. I'm not exactly sure what I did, but they seem distraught and i feel terrible. NExt thing I know, everyone is gone from the psychward/prison, and I walk out the door expecting to be stopped. I walk to the bus stop and everyone looks at me like i'm drunk. I smell like rotten bananas. And i'm stumbling around asking people which direction the bus goes = uptown or to the suburbs, and they're ignoring me. I actually feel drunk in the dream, but not in a good way, i feel depressed and disoriented and uncoordinated and strung out. THat's the last thing i remember

    6. Crystal Dragon

      by , 08-24-2010 at 07:22 PM
      I remember vaguely that I was holding a crystal in my hand, and for some reason I knew that it held power inside of it. I wasn't quite sure how, but it did. I was with my younger brother, and we were exploring a very interesting place, filled to the brims with crystals that were easily over ten feet tall. There were many of them, dotted around the trail we walked upon.

      He ran ahead of me, I don't know why, but then I heard water splash. Something flashed across my vision, and suddenly he was thrashing in the water and screaming for help as one of the crystals turned into a dragon and began to try and drown him. I ran to the edge of the water, but I couldn't go in - the dragon was whipping its tail at me and preventing me from going into the water.

      The crystal I was holding jumped out of my hand and hit the edge of the water, and turned into a beautiful blue and silver dragon. It attacked the dragon trying to kill my brother, and defeated it. As it pulled my brother to shore, I remember staring at it, with tears in my eyes. It had gotten hurt, and it was tired. I was about to try and hug it or touch it in some way when I woke up.

    7. Non-Lucid dream from the morning of August 23

      by , 08-24-2010 at 07:07 PM
      It was a quick dream, the kind you'd normally get while just falling asleep.

      I saw a window. It was slightly open so I could tell that it was night. The drapes (the window in my room has blinds) were fluttering around. I started seeing an orb floating around on the outside of the window. I jolted awake.

      Can't remember anything else from that night/morning.

      (I dunno how to edit the title. This dream is actually from the 24th, today.)

      I knew my pen was out of ink when I went to bed but I was lazy and didn't take notes.

      Aliens and My Eternal Soul (non-lucid)

      There was a ufo with rotating lights on it and various shadowy figure heads. Much like Independence day when the President is bombarded telepathically with the aliens plans, I heard or knew they were after my eternal soul and my wife.

      Is this connected to my dream guide?

      Movie Night (non-lucid)

      I was at a school/movie theater and I was sitting beside this chick. The dream turned into a heavy and vivid romance dream.

      Its a shame this is all I have. I'll take more notes.

      1. Not many memories of this one but I know I had it, I fell back asleep almost as soon as waking up and didn't write anything down.

      2. Somewhere with lots of brick buildings, also remember something about colorful eyes.

      3. Oddly lacking in visual memories of surroundings. I remember I was with a small group of people in an area that gave me a creepy feeling. It was an abandoned city of some sort, industrial mainly. (While I do not remember visuals I somehow just knew.) We were trying to leave a '200 mile cordoned off area' according to one of the DCs and were passing through this city while searching for supplies. The sun had either just set otherwise it was a strange, lighter night than usual. Strange creatures appeared occasionally in the night and we drove them off, I think we might have lost someone at some point, after a time gap in the dream we were in some kitchen and the group was looking somewhat more nervous and sad. I;m not sure if someone was actually missing or not as I do not know the number we started with. We continued searching the kitchen and found, along with some canned food, a pot of soup that seemed relatively fresh. Most the group decided not to risk it, one did, a boy about 13-5 years old. Just before eating some of it, a clown head floated to the top of the pot. Another time gap happened there and I found myself in a third person view of an interrogation room. I saw two of the DCs get interrogated separately, though I do not remember the questions I know they were related to leaving the area and how they managed to survive.


      Possible influences: The first two, unknown. The third: I just recently started playing the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl. Also watched Stephen King's Desperation.

      I need a dream ...reader person.

      My dreams have been weird lately, but this'n takes the cake.
      This is my dream after my second time going to bed, so that means I was asleep first, then I woke up...
      ate some Cheetos and watched television of some comedian on channel 71, and then went back to bed.)

      I can't exactly remember my dream, but i remember like...

      being awake for the first part of my dream.

      I heard my mom get up, then I heard Loren screaming he wasn't short. (He's so grumpy in the mornings)
      And so like, I thought of FMA (Full Metal Alchemist) and then my black nothingness morphed into FMA.
      And then.. I lost awareness, and dreamt a weird dream of Edward Elric (Main character, blond hair) crying, throwing something that looked like some Japanese candy i bought the other day (It looked like a pack of gum, but it was in green wrappings with little white boxes that looked like serving sizes and black scribbles, couldn't read it) , and his red jacket at Roy Mustang, then let out a sad scream and dissapeared.
      It was raining, and they were outside when this happened.

      Then like an anime,
      it flashed to inside, and Roy was sitting before a young looking dude with short brown hair. Kinda like Hughes but younger. There was a window in my dream view, and you could see the rain pounding harshly.
      Roy thought of something, and then like in the animes, his pupils shrunk a bit.
      He clenched his hands to fists as tears started to slide down his cheeks.
      Roy Mustang doesn't cry.

      Anyway, he said something in Japanese

      And then i recall looking down at the scene and seeing English subtitles flash, then show up as "Ed was trying to tell me something."

      I don't know Japanese..but it sounded..ya know..right.

      And then a shrill ringing broke through, and Roy looked up, as if he was staring at me, and then i woke up to the sound of my doorbell being rung.

      I swore I heard my mom scream "GET THE DANG DOOR, IT'S MAKING THE DOG BARK."

      So i stumbled out of bed, looking at the clock. 7:08 AM

      Almost time for the kiddies to get up for school.

      I walked over to the door and answered it, and it was some random witness.

      He left and I looked around, not hearing the shower anymore or sounds of my mom in the bathroom, and my brothers bedroom was empty.
      The hell...

      I stumbled into my bedroom to check the time.

      It was 10:12 AM

      And the witness only took 3-ish minutes, because he saw i had just gotten out of bed.

      I recall there being a blank spot in that time, where nothing happened, and I just thunk.

      Surely I didn't think for 3 hours.

      And I swear the clock said 7:08.

      The hell's going on? D<

      Am I going insane?

      Why are fictional characters being sad in my dreams?

      Why did Ed through candy and his Jacket at Roy?

      Why am I hearing Japanese in my dreams? Oo

      WHY ARE THE CLOCKS BEING STUPID? D<

      And why do I have lucid dreams?

      I started off at some building, a highrise. I think my sister was moving there or something, I can't quite remember. It wasn't a very nice building.

      I was helping her get some stuff up to her apartment. Every time I went into the elevator, it seemed to just get smaller and smaller. There was once where I had to lie down on my side and straight as I could, but I hadn't noticed that my foot was sticking out a bit. It got caught in the door or something. I tugged at it but it wouldn't come out. As it started moving I prayed that nothing bad would happen. To my luck, when the floor above came, it just pushed my foot out. I was so relieved.

      Then a few times I didn't get out of the elevator fast enough, and so I had to suffer being in the cramped little thing as it went to other floors. To get out I literally had to throw myself out of it to avoid getting caught by the door again.

      Then I was at school. The classroom we were in was huge and there were a lot of people. There was a supply teacher. I really had to take a shit, and so I asked the teacher to go to the bathroom. She was nice to me, but she seemed to only want to let me go if I had some kind of disorder or something. I told her that I just needed to "go". Finally she let me go.

      I ended up going out onto AN St. for some reason. Apparently I needed to go there to get to the bathroom. I ran along the street, going nowhere.

      Then I was back in that classroom again. RE had left her dog ZO with us for some reason. She was sitting in my lap. It was lunch time now. There were these apple and hummus treat things in front of us. I ate a few, and asked the people around me if they thought it would be safe if the dog had a few. We all thought it was weird how RE had just left the dog here.

      Then it was recess. I was looking at the monkey bars. I saw MA and AN. We were talking about how MA used to be able to jump to the 6th bar and whatnot. I had trouble jumping to the 5th one at this point.

      The last dream was me watching myself playing D2. It was some kind of MXL tournament, and I had to get to a certain place first. I was playing a bowazon. My opponent was a Barb who started with me. At first we were both killing the enemies, then I started to run through. He followed. I put a point in that skill that gives extra run speed, and I sped ahead of him slightly. Then I turned around and shot him with a few Dragonforce, and he went down. I continued on running. I was sure to win this now.

    12. Video game world!

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:56 PM
      This non lucid dream took place in a video game. However i am in the video game world with many real people. Lots of friends and some family. It was long and vivid, hopefully i won't leave out any important details.

      Throughout the video game world there are portals and doors leading to other areas to explore. To open these doors/portals into other areas 4 gems are needed. You must find the four gems and place them in the correct order in the ground to open the next door and to advance. I remember starting in a dungeon. The dungeon is pretty straight forward, like in a video game. There are some corridors that branch off of the main one, but they all eventually lead back to where i was before. Throughout the dungeons i am finding gems. Each set of four gems will be placed correctly to open another gate/door/portal. I don't remember where we found the first four, but we found them, this opened the next area to us and let us search deeper and deeper into the dungeon. As we explore the next area of the dungeon we find another set of gems to open ANOTHER deeper part of the dungeon. At a certain point it occurs to me that we missed one of the 'gateway openers' where the gems should have been placed. almost everyone else disagrees and thinks that we should just continue. I say that "we can't beat the game without going to this other area that we missed" but no one heeds to my warnings. after going deeper and deeper, farther and farther, and exploring many more levels we leave the dungeon. We come outside into a rain forest type environment. I find a little pendant and swear that it is important to the room i think we missed. once again no one heeds to my warnings, and we continue on. The last room i remember reaching was shaped like a cross. We walked in through the bottom of the cross. On the left side there was a portal, no doubt leading to another world. On the right there was the same thing. The last portal straight ahead and on the head of the cross was bigger and probably the most important. I turn to my brother and ask, which do we go through first?

      Surely i am missing some stuff, but this was a long dream and i got everything that i could remember. it also triggered my to recall another dream from last night!

      But we don't go swimming, and she says shes going to go take a piss.
      And then another random girl i know said "I know how we can make this guy move" so I look over to see some random dude in the parking lot lying down with a boner..

      "sa, ki, ru, yo, n, ka, a"
      If you don't understand Japanese don't worry.
      Then my mate looked at me like i was fucked up and laughed because i miss-spelt a word and when i looked back at it, it was in english..
    14. last few nights

      8.24.10 It's been a few days since i posted my dreams so on the next couple entries i will try to get as many as i can remember. This first one is from a couple nights ago

      SAW(7?)
      I can remember where it started. I can remember where it ended. I walked in to the movie theater. Sat down and started watching the newest saw movie. I walk out of the theater thinking That was not what i expected. It was more like a comedy. It didn't even have the characters from the other saw movies. I guess this means that my subconscious has some interesting new ideas and twists for the next saw movie.

    15. Wave 26: Sigh... another shitty one

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:05 PM (The Meerkat's Lair)
      Yay another DILD where I wake up instantly! Sigh... but NEW RECORD! 6 DREAMS in 1 NIGHT!

      Dream 1: Something to do about my schoolbus.

      Dream 2: I am Spongebob trying to infiltrate Squidwards house, which is a maze. I think of laying flat on the wall til he passes but he sees me. Damn it.

      Dream 3: Sometimes im on the comp, sometimes im not. Depends First im not. I am in a car with Russell
      Crowe. When our car ride is done, I decide I will collect celebrities. There was a name, but i forgot However, to get a celebrity, you need to go through a series of hallucinations, mostly scary ones (like SP). I pick Cameron Diaz on my comp, while Amelie is watching me. Im not in front of my comp anymore, but inside a purple tunnel. A big smiley face appears before being crushed by spikes in a bloody scene. I dont recall aquiring Cameron, and I pick another star. The screen starts with HI but then the screen comes back to the home page. I immediatly think something scary will pop up and the home page is part of the trick. This proves shocking enough for me to wonder if im dreaming. While im doing a successful RC grandma is walking towards the room. Now I think to myself: Ok, im dreaming. Great. And of course, I wake up. Again. Nice

      Dream 4:
      Part 1. Im a thief running away from cops. On rooftops. Video-game style. The kind of burglar like in a cartoon. You can also pick your character, all I remember is that the burglar holds a bag of money that slows you down. So at some point im cornered by two policemen. One has a gun but doesnt fire, the other a HUGE fan. He turns it on towards me and I fight against the wind to shoot it with a Charged Beam which I apparently have. I remember thinking: Come on thats not fair! I manage to keep running on other rooftops. Then I start again. All over again. Until I somehow hear about a secret escape through a prison that baffles police dudes. I try to find it but my mom calls me to go in the pool. So I quickly find my secret which is like a place you jump in and pop out at the other side.
      Part 2. In my backyard it is foggy, cold and even raining a little. I ask my mom if we really have to go today, but its because Francis, who is fat, needs to train and do more physical exercise for his ankles. Me and my sister hop in while he hangs around. Suddenly his ankles start hurting like hell and he screams in pain. He leaves the pool.

      Dream 5: I have lived this dream before. Today? A week ago? A month ago? I dunno. But it was not my first time in the following dream. I have to save a princess, or something like that. Not sure what, but its very important. I am in a church with tons of persons on the benches. In a dramatic entrance, my partner Arnold Schwarzenegger comes inside with a ray of light. We both go in the middle and he does a ritual with an onion. While he does this bad guys jump to attack us and prevent whatever were doing. In them is Fonzie (but old, like in AD) and Lindsay Bluth. There are more I cant recall. Arnold throws me the onion and in reflex I throw it to the bad dudes. I immediatly recognize my mistake and manage to take it back. Once the ritual is complete, the princess is born inside Camille, and shes gonna have to blow up to give it birth. Nice. A parade storms all around. A woman is wearing a big orange afro wig. Another has puppets.

      Dream 6: I am talking to an old man in front of a shelve full of music CDs. He talks to me about how he loves Billy Talent and other Alternative/punk bands. Hes wearing a red jacket. I propose to him other artists from my music library, including Daughtry and Nickelback. Then when I mention Green Day, he says: Oh yeah, that was his girlfriend in hockey! And im like: Yeah! Uh...What? Thats it.

      Six in one. Yay! Thats gotta be like the whole freakin night! But with all this, 6 NIGHTS LEFT. I decided tonight is my last shot. If I dont get a respectable, full lucid dream in the following night (like my second one ) im pulling out THE HEAVY ARTILLERY

      That means RC every freakin minute, DEILD, MILD or WILD if fail, WBTB, even CAN-WILD if required. Im gonna read, watch, post, live the dream. The clock is ticking, but I WILL fly until school. Thats guaranteed. I will even talk to my parents about it and listen to MP3s if it is absolutely needed.
