02.08.2010Flooding, Pokemon, and Baseball (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID This dream I also had after attempting to WILD. This one is really long. Me and some people were taking a bus to some cabins. The sky was really dark, but it did not really bother anyone. My 8th grade Italian teacher, Ms. P, saw a spark outside, and got a little worried. The bus driver told her not to worry about it. We arrived at the cabin. There were 4 people there previously. We had to rape at least one of them. I was really confused, but we were forced to. I don't remember who I raped. I was then told that two of the others that were being raped were my friends Destiny and Daniela. I knew them in the same house together would be really bad. My friend Casey was there too. I don't know how, but he was. Him and Daniela were going to get married there. I asked her if she wanted this bride's hat, but she refused to take it. I told Casey I would watch my stairs and tell him when my father was coming down. I somehow saw my father coming down by his shadow, and I told them. They didn't care, but they saw he came down video taping with the Flip, so they split up and ran into the room. The running went on for quite a while. I went down one hallway, and it turned into my middle school hallways. I was following two guys, and a group of people were behind me. One made fun of the other person for tripping, but then the other person tripped. I ended up on the bus with a few people, my teacher, and the driver. We somehow were passing the place we went through to go in. She saw a huge wave that almost came to the shore. She told the bus driver to drive to get out of there. He wanted to warn everyone else, but she said there was no time. We drove away. A red-haired kid (he reminded me of the kid from the Polar Express) started to follow us. As we drove by some of the largest, strongest buses that were originally there, we found them knocked over. We knew whatever was happening was not good. We drove through the curvy path, and got out of the area. All of a sudden, the view switched to the red-haired kids. He was running through the curved paths that we went through. He saw a shack, so he ran to there. At the shack, a weird woman was playing with her pet grizzly bear. He ignored them and kept running forward. I think the old lady said to the bear that she heard a cell phone. Me, the bus driver, my teacher, a few kids, and the red-head were all now in some dark palace. If we got through, we would reach safety. There were a few puzzles in there, but I remember the most when we got to one door. It was locked on both sides! These pillars appeared, and I went to touch one. The bus driver told us not to. I pressed two, and they lit up, which was a good thing. I touched two more, but they just made a groaning sound. We didn't know how to match them up. I think we got two more pairs. I noticed behind us on the ground was a key on which pillars to get. It was actually really simple. All of a sudden, some shadow thing was coming after us. The bus driver made us climb up the hill right next to the pillars. We told him to come with us, so he gave the shadow thing a huge kick, then came with us. I saw a door and jumped down to it. I removed the wooden plank on it, and then removed a wooden piece blocking the handle. We made it out, alive! Now, we appeared in my house. We ran outside, and we had a list with us, of six pokemon from the new Pokemon generation, which I was reading about yesterday. When you touched one, you turned into it. I think there was only five people left with me. At first, I tried some weird one, but I did not like it. I decided to be the Pokemon Musharna. Or an evolved form of it. I wasn't even sure in my dream. The bottom half of your view when you are a Pokemon was your moveset. You actually get eight attacks, but I think I had nine or ten. Darkrai was behind us! He must've been the shadow. We were a good distance ahead of him. We had to head to my elementary school. When we were going down one street, everyone except me was talking to some girls. I explained to them Darkrai was going to kill us, pointed out to him, and we ran along. The girls stayed where they were. We got to the school, and we saw the other evil person. He had two evil children and an evil wife. All were pokemon. I tried to use surf, but it did not work. All of a sudden, everyone turned human. We were going to decide who wins by a baseball game. One person on the other team couldn't hit or catch the ball. I went back to the parking lot, and a lot of people I know where wearing white. I was too! We were the white team. One of the new Pokemon games is Pokemon: White. The other one is Pokemon: Black. The other team was wearing all black. After seeing my team, I knew we were going to lose. I woke up.
For the second night in a row I had a LD dream. I was watching several dirt daublers crawling around on the side of my house and I was thinking they must have nests inside the cracks in the rock. Then I noticed a nest moving across a rock and thought that wasnt right, thought I might be dreaming, then I saw myself walk by and I knew I was dreaming. As usual I immediately started trying to fly and with little difficulty I up and off, looking down on my rooftop, then soaring through the sky. While flying it occurred to me that I had wanted to turn my focus in a lucid dream towards helping all beings. As I moved my mind in that direction the dream started to dim. I recited a mantra and it dimmed more. I was afraid the dream was going to end so I tried spinning but that is difficult in the air so I landed, or was on the ground, and I spun several times. This saved the dream, if only for a minute, but it was very dim. I sat in the lotus position and tried the mantra again. Then the dream ended.
Not a good night. Sigh. Dream Lucid Dream I am in a synagogue sitting with a group of people on the floor. It is loud and there are lots of little kids yelling. I randomly notice two sisters. They somehow remind me of Ramona and Beezus from that old book, you know? The younger one, I'll call her Ramona, is blabbing to someone about her sister. The older one, who I'll call Beezus, gets mad and slaps her. Their mother rushes in and is very angry with Beezus, The door to the sanctuary opens and everyone is supposed to go inside. I run to the coatroom for some reason, but end up getting pulled into the sanctuary. It doesn't look like it should: there are scented candles everywhere and the whole layout is changed. Suddenly I am at Ramona & Beezus's house. They are yelling at each other. Then Beezus gets so angry she grabs a vase and hits Ramona over the head with it. The little girl falls to the ground. Their mother comes in screaming and out of nowhere I am inside a family video. It shows lots of scenes of Beezus and Ramona playing together when they were smaller. Ramona looks beautiful while Beezus is very plain. I realize that it why she was killed. I wake up. My WILD alarm is going off.I settle back in and start to think of peeling a carrot because it is boring and will put me to sleep. I get the SP and ALMOST make it to my dream, closer than last time! But in the end, I wake up again. By this time I am quite frustrated because it's 5 in the morning and I'm tired and I'm having WILD problems. I toss and turn for a bit angsting with myself. After about 30 minutes I finally go back to sleep. I'm in a pool, but it is not a nice pool The water is green and filled with algae. I try to swim but I can't see very well because the water is all murky. There is a bite mark on the edge of the pool. I hear someone say it is because of an alligator. For a second I think I see an alligator swimming around and I freak out, which wakes me up for real this time. I know I'm a total noob and i shouldn't expect to get my techniques perfect from Day 1, but I can't help being angry at myself. I guess I just don't have any patience. On another note, why do I always have really morbid dreams? I mean, if you look through, there's always someone dying or drowning or screaming or something. Also, 75% of my dreams have water-related incidents. This can't be a coincidence. Maybe I have a deep fear of water? I don't know. I guess I'll just have to keep plugging away and see if I can figure anything out.
So I'm starting to realize a few of my dream signs: basketball players, goofy math, and running in fear. Last night I guess I was pretty tired. I only had one dream fragment and at that it was only a snippet of a conversation. The vocalist from a friends band, Aaron from S.I.B, said something like: "What all countries have we invaded since Iraq? Only one." Hopefully better luck tonight..
Another night another entry. I come into my dream and I'm taking care of a few dogs in some house. A corgi puppy that's chilling out in a big cage sorta like the one my cats live in and a dog from my childhood. I go outside and there are people walking around. I don't know why but every pregnant woman in the city is congregating on the hospitals for some reason. I can't remember why. For some reason I go outside and somehow run into a small group of people. I can't remember what/who/where they're going/why but I decide to join up with them. Behind us some pregnant girl seems to be trailing us. But then some guy, who looks kinda like Adam Morrison, comes striding down the street and confronts this one woman and pretty much tells her she's not pregnant enough to waste the hospitals time (I think he means: she's not far enough along in her pregnancy) and the woman freaks out. He tells her that "she's more drunk, sober, than with alcohol in her." And she calls him a pretty derogatory sentence about how he's just a big mexican. She goes marching off again obviously upset. I also woke up in the middle of the night from my previous dream and decided to try to WILD. So I lay perfectly still and repeated my mantra to myself: "I will fall asleep and then begin to lucid dream." I don't know how long I did this, awhile I think, and then my entire body started to tingle and my heart started racing. I was too full of energy/nerves and I couldn't stay like that for too long so I moved and woke myself up. Was that sleep paralysis?
#1 carson and i are at the beach. she walks off with a friend of hers and i stay behind. talking to this man about things, like the beach, the area, and carson. she comes back and starts applying makeup to her neck, says she got a hickey from making out with her friend. i tell her that thanks for not making out with me ever and instead making out with a random friend at the beach. i decide to leave and go back to where we are staying, as i turn a girl walks up to me and make a gesture or comment about how i am attractive and she is interested in me. i dont react and head back to where we are staying. its strange because carson and i are currently dating but in the dream it was as if we were broken up for some time. #2 i am pretending to be a bike messenger and i arrive at a building.out front is an unlocked ed bike and i take it. i go into the bathroom and there are sodas in the fridge that look fancy and i decide to steal some. there is a backpack under the desk so i start emptying it out. in my head or down the hall i hear someone saying that the bag has been left there fo rmonths, so i feel less guilty about it. i take the bag and on my way out a woman calls me by name. i do not recognize her but i pretend that i do and we chat for a minute. i got outside and there is a nice looking blue bike. it seems perfect for me and i let ryan check it out. as i watch him it turns into a green car. he does some trick with it as it changes back into a bike an dwhen he hands it to me, its not a fold-up scooter. i tuck it into the straps of my backpack and hop on my red bike. as im riding down the street my front teeeth start to hurt, it feels like they are pushing against the helmet. i take it off and strap it to th ebasket. corey hits a rough patch and flips over his handlebars. we are returning to coolidge st and i am worrid about being seen on a stolen bike. i have a daydream about what i would do if i was seen. when i wake up my teeth hurt, as if ie been pressing them against each other.

Unfortunately, this morning was the beginning of the end for my longest dream streak. 4 dreams in 4 nights is my current record. Still no lucidity, but im working on it. I dont consider this a failure; simply a dose of bad luck. I know im capable of recalling my dreams. My confidence is building, wich is why I can smell the lucid coming closer and closer. Besides, the reason why I didnt manage to fall asleep was because instead of focusing on dreaming I tried to WILD wich was an utter failure. Then after it I just wasnt tired enough. I got up earlier, so il just be more sleepy tonight. Dream fragments: Im writing something on this very site until I realise that my mom is watching what im doing. I freak out and turn off the screen. Some kind of test is sumitted and the winner of those tests is the pokemon Metagross
I awakened in a clockwork-type structure possibly on the top floor the room was filled with golden gears and other clockwork devices. I had litttle time to observe my surroundings as i heard someone emerge from a trap door in the ground. I hid behind a main support beam which was a large stone pillar. The man had an appearance of a 19th century victorian engineer his shirt was very frilly and stained with oil with the sleeves rolled up, his trousers were tan with suspenders attached extending around the shirt. As he moved around the pillar i moved the opposite direction hoping he might not catch me (I had the feeling i was trespassing). I ran to the trapdoor although not without the engineer spotting me.I left the room in a hurry knowing that the engineer would follow. The new room was a long narrow stairway which did reveal many stairs. Being lucid from the start i realised i had no need for the stairs and i jumped down gaining alot of speed in the process of falling. My feet then hit the ground without any shoot of pain of any kind in my legs. I then looked for a door yet could not find any although i seen what was a long wide tube which led into another room so i decided to climb through. From the inside the tube seemed to be made of glass and as i looked through i seen the under water sea and that the structure i was in was on the sea bed. As much as i wanted to enjoy the view i remembered i was being persued so i continued to climb through. I turned around to see that the tube i had climbed through had a cap with a lock on it attached by hinges,i placed the cap around the tube and locked it, it gave out an air tightening sound. Realising i had some time to kill i observed this next room it looked like a storeroom. The ground was wet with water leaking through the walls were covered with barnicles and other sea attachments. The water leaking through started to increase it stared to flow in. With the water level increasing (getting up to my knees) i started to climb the wall spiderman-like i kept sliping because of the stupid barnicles and seaweed so i used my lucid abilities to get rid i them, i swayed my hand across the wall and everything seemed to discintergrate (without sacrificing the wall). I tried to stop the water flowing in but somehow couldn't so i continued to climb up until i reached the roof the water by this time was crashing in with all the force of the contained ocean. The grip i held upon the ceiling let go and i fell when my back hit the water thats when The Kick happened and i awoke in my bed.

Last night I dreamed that I read on Gawker about flatworms infecting people's brains in NYC subways. There was a picture of the back of some bald guy's head, and a reddened, irritated vein leading to a starburst of smaller reddened veins, like an infection site. There was also a diagram of how the worms travel through your brain, and the worms looked a lot like zerg drones in Starcraft 2. Later, I was walking through old, dank subway tunnels, and sending out drones to harvest resources (which they basically did by eating poo). I remember saying to someone walking with me, "I guess it doesn't matter if my worms get worms."
NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Remembered two dreams tonight! One fully, one almost fully and had a dream fragment floating around my head when I woke up. Also dreams where in first person. Could vitamin B12 be related? Will switch to B6 at end of week and note any distinct changes I vaguely remember my rat Stu being very bitey even though hes never bitten anyone in real life The Train For some reason I was having to babysit J in MB's flat. He had to take the train somewhere and so me and J decided to search his flat. We ended up finding a stack of leather bound magazine size books hed written about various regions hed created on the computer game "dwarf fortress". J wanted to take the train for some reason so i took her and we got on the train. We werent going anywhere particular so I was planning to just get the train back soon. Someone shouted this was my stop so me and J got off and on the bottom of the station was the person who told us it was our stop. It was some girl who thought she was my friend but id never seen before. We got the train back and on it met up with P, I think JW was also on the train. On the train I told P that it was OK that he wasnt very tall as someone i read about didnt have a growth spurt till they where 15. I also told him I was proud of him for not picking on younger kids and he told me he was changing schools to burton. I think thats where this dream ended The Pool and the wheelchairs Me, my Grandad and writer, journalist and broadcaster Andrew Collins (WTF?) were going on holiday together. Our room seemed to be a large warehouse with a swimming pool in the middle. Andrew Collins somehow got red paint on his feet and went for a swim. This caused the manager (a 30 something blonde woman) to have a massive go at us. After that I somehow stole two of those old people scooters for me and my grandad. The manager saw me and was angry so we pretended my grandad had a terminal illness called a "bookcase" in his spine that rendered him paralysed and would soon kill him. This meant I had got a scooter so we could go around together. She said OK but if she found out we were lying we would have nine seconds before we were kicked out. She turned to leave and my grandad started getting up when she turned around so i distracted her while he sat back down. She then left and my grandad stood back up. I then so a close up of a cctv camera and new wed been caught. I saw a countdown from nine and footage of naked ladies swimming round the pool with red pain sponges, Andrew Collins thought it was footage of him but i explained the manager had faked footage of us having a weird party to ensure wed be kicked out. When the countdown reached 0 i woke up

8/3/10 1- Flying Practice I am lucid. The how and the why are right on the edge of my brain, but I can't remember them... I decide that I want to practice flying with different styles. I've never used the mind control style before, so I telekinetically lift myself off the ground and use only my mind to control the flight. I am actually rather surprised that this works. Next I try peter pan style, which is loads of fun! So much fun, in fact, that I lose focus and forget I'm dreaming. I find myself in a parallel universe that, on the surface, appears to be identical to our own. However, my family all have distinctive differences in their personality. There's a difference in mine, too. I am chaotic and crazy (or rather, a different kind of chaotic and crazy than I usually am). Almost childlike, but with no innocence.
PART 1 - RICH FAMILY PIANO VISIT I'm visiting some rich, "upper class" family. I don't know how I know them. There is a mother - 50s, slim, narrow face, short brown cropped hair, well mannered but stern, a cold personality... and a daughter, who looks like someone I very vaguely know IRL. The house seems to be based on two locations from my past, one from my childhood and one my father's current home. Kind of both at once, as dreams often seem to weirdly do. I practice on their piano (in the kitchen area from my childhood house)... meanwhile in the next room, the mother is teaching the daughter piano (living room, right across - where there used to actually be a piano IRL). At one point I crawl into the room toward the corner opposite from them (there is no other furniture other than the piano), where there is a picture of the daughter leaning against the wall on the floor. I "fix" the tilt of the picture. As I do, I'm more or less staring at the daughter. She pretends not to notice. As I'm crawling back out, I realize that I was staring and that it must have seemed creepy, and think to myself that I should completely ignore the daughter for a while to compensate. After a while the mother comes in and asks how I'm doing. I pick up on the subtext that it's time for me to go, and say that I was actually just about to head out. As I'm leaving I notice I'm wearing a bulky green-ish jacket I've borrowed from them. I hesitate, wondering if they'll ask for it back, but suppose they let me keep it for now as it's raining outside. I think the original reason I borrowed it had something to do with what took place before I arrived, some sense of danger, but can't remember. I remember something about playing in an orchestra... On my way out (now based on my father's current home), where there is usually a closet by the front door, I notice it's a door into an entire room that is in fact a giant checkers board, with giant checkers pieces to play with and everything. ANALYSIS Piano is one of several arts I've been considering to spend my time on while not working on my meditation project, so I'm sure that association is primed in my mind. Crawling into the room... this could certainly symbolize submitting to their "higher status." Fixing the tilt of the picture... this could mean trying to improve her self image, perhaps repair damage done by the harsh mother figure. The checkers room... this could refer to decadence, extravagance, this rich family having a whole room just for checkers. ----- PART 2 - RAP ALBUM G I'm talking to my IRL friend G about releasing a rap album. I say that I'm not super motivated to release one at this point, otherwise I would be "working my contacts," that it's "just a hobby right now." ANALYSIS Perhaps trying to qualify myself, essentially trying to prove, "I could if I wanted to."

first attempt at DILD failed last night. I am standing on a bridge in my hometown looking up river with some of my friends. The river is fished a lot in the past by my father and I. We notice that there is a large triangle shaped of inordinately large fishing rods. I triy the check hands technique to assert i was sleeping, as i look down to my hands I am greeted with the site of a fishing hook poking through my "rod" from top to bottom. One of my friends, Craig, steps forward and pulls the line (as is his character to wind me up in any way possible). I am generally not phased by pain so this was not a nightmare. I then went to a small bathroom and removed the lure. I attempt to urinate and, of course, like a bad comedy movie this results in my "rod" working rather like a hosepipe with holes in it. Roughly at this point my girlfriend inadvertantly elbows me and i am awake. The next dream I am playing a new version of resident evil with Craig (again), the game becomes the dream and i am running around a virtual world. After 60 minutes (possibly borrowed from the real videogame, Napoleon total war) I lose the game and a super monster appears. The super monster has the body of a gorilla walking upright, with the head of george bush and a stars and stripes top hat, it picks up a car and throws it at the vehicle i am in killing me and ending the dream. The last dream I am in a hotel with my family waiting in the foyer, we get annoyed at waiting so long so I go to find where my father is. He is at the bar with 3 other people (one may have been my uncle). I hassle him to hurry up (he does this in real life!) and he jokes about. I go outside the hotel and I am sitting on a bench with a girl from my hometown. The bench is on a mountain - i realise I am in my hometown and my family are in america. At this point my girlfriend starts messing about with my internet connection (?) and i get annoyed at her and ignore her. That was last night....
So last night i tried having a DILD again. With some positive phrases of me remembering my dreams etc etc.. And it worked Although my dream recall sucked a bit because i didnt write it down imideatily. What i can recall though is walking through a marsh. On my way somewhere important. I recall looking down and seeing the water/mud soaked grass and ground... Then all of the sudden i was like... wait a minute im dreaming.. I dont know what triggerd the dream though.. In the end i kept walking on my merry way. I came to a lake and said a phrase that i dont recall and a platform rose out of the like with a sword. I remember thinking again. I must be dreaming and i felt all exited.. I took the sword from the platform and for some reason it fell apart... I started putting it back together and then woke up..
