Finally a long and memorable dream in full technicolour.

I was in a typical open plan office where several people were working, I knew them to be the offices of the "One to One" Web Hosting Company and I was looking for some leaflets to take with me.

As I walked around the offices, (which I think was based on Quarry House where I used to work), I could see the staff staring at me. I continued 'round noting two small tower computers and thinking to myself that that must be where they store everybodys web sites. On my second circuite I found that there were fewer members of staff, but I did meet a pretty ladywith dark brown curly hair dressed in smart casual clothes. She said that she'd been working there for twenty years it felt like she was on a treadmill day in day out. I agreed with her saying I felt the same with my job. I then asked her for some leaflets explaining that I left my Toonstopia cartooning site to run out but wanting tostartposting again, (the scene changed to the memory of my seeing the site run out, but returned to the narative once I stopped thinking about it). She then returned with a big handful of the same leaflet.

I then took the lift to the ground floor and walked just out of the building in a sheltered area when I noticed it was raining and others were leaving lighting up cigarettes before running off. I realised that I had left my favorite electronic cigarette upstais in my desk and was left with one that gave an inferior amount of vapour. I considered leaving and buying a pack of cigarettes, but decided I would be better off going back and getting it.

I turned around and got in a lift which had three buttons, "M", "0" and "1". I presses the "1" button and the lift travelled forward then up and I got out on the first floor. I then took the stairs to the second floor, stopping half way up to go to the loo. Then as I was coming to the second floor, the corridor to the second floor door narrowed. I started crawling towards the door, but as I progressed, the corridor got narrower and narrower. I decided I wouldn't be able to make it so backed out then went up the stairs to the third floor and found that to get to this floor I had to climb onto a file draw which had wheels on the bottom, smash my way through a wooden flowery patterned trellis and climb through the hole I had made. I managed to do this with difficulty, then as I was orienting myself, I wondered how many of the ladies will still be in the office.

At this point I woke up.

I'd like to apologize for disappearing again. I've popped in a few times over the past week, but I haven't been posting or keeping up with any of the programs I'm involved with. Basically, my recall has gotten wonky. All of my dreams recently end the same way, but I haven't been able to take advantage of this for purposes of lucidity. As far as I can tell, I'm waking up immediately when I hear the noise.

On top of that, it's taking me longer to get to sleep, and I'm not able to stay asleep as long. It's probably due to stress, thinking about other things, the usual assortment of life-related factors. I'm not really sure.

I just wanted to explain that in case someone from IOSDP or Dreamwalkers wonders where I went. On the subject of DVASA, my mind's just not there right now. The gradual disconnection of my dream life from waking has become a much greater focus than preparing for the upcoming mission to project to the moon. Maybe I'll get lucky and succeed in projecting this month, who knows?

Good luck, everyone, and happy dreaming.

This Dream I canonly remember a few items.

I was in anopen aired swimming pool and was swimming in the nude. As I swam towards a friend (no one in particular, just knew this person was my friend), I realised that I was the only one naked. This didn't embarass me, I just didn't want to be going counter to everyone else. left as inconspicuousely as I couldto the changing roomand came back fully clothed with shorts and a shirt similar to how my friend was dressed.

First lucid dream
Wednesday, October 5th, 2011

Key:
Regular: Description
Bold: Lucid
Italic: Notes

At the beginning of the dream, I was with my two brothers up inside my parent's room. It looked just like how it would in real life, although I did not inspect everything as much as I should have. The lighting was normal and it all seemed very real.

We were all just standing there, and then I cant remember but I realized I was dreaming and became lucid. Me and my brothers all knew it was a lucid dream, which was kind of weird. Then we decided to believe that something would be under my parent's bed, and we started taking off the mattresses and sure enough, it was there. I really do not remember what it was that was there, but we did find it. Then I tried to summon a magic wand(Really don't know why, just the first thing that came to mind when I thought of summoning something) I just yelled "magic wand!" and visualized it in my hand, but nothing happened. Some black lady walked through the door, and I decided to leave to go downstairs. I jumped off the staircase and landed on the floor with no pain. There were some people that I never seen before laying on my couch, and they were saying stuff about me, I got mad and yelled at them. (Can't remember what I yelled) This is when I did my first reality check in a dream, I plugged my nose, and sure enough, I could breathe!

I decided to go outside to see if I could find any DC's to interact with. I opened up my front door, and it was not my driveway, it was a grass plane with a school. The school had the words "middle school" floating above it. I continued to walk around looking for some DC's and I walked for what seemed like 20 seconds to the left, and then there was another school, that had the words "high school" floating above it. I instantly recognized the high school, because I have been there before in some of my non-lucid dreams.

I woke up after that, and I tried to go back into a dream but there were people talking loudly in my house at the time, so I decided to get up.

I think the reason the dream ended so quick, is that I did not practice any stabilization methods, I just did my own thing. I didn't even perform a reality check until half-way through the lucid dream.

Tonight was terrible for recalling. I got woken up by the faulty fire-alarm. So, because I was moving around and stuff..I lost most of it. All I remember is a guy called Matthew giving me a letter with a key attached to it. It's REALLY disappointing, feel almost like a failure. But eh, can't win 'em all.

Shiver me timbers!
This may be becoming a series. Not as good as the first, but still amazing.


I recommend this song for everybody reading.

Yeah, I bet that scared away most people.
Anyway;


I remember being in my math class. Everyone was standing up and doing some combination of square dancing, a sort of Irish tap dance, and Mexican hat dancing. Everybody had just begun to sing the pirate song; I joined in and picked up easily.

Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate!

Yar - har - fiddle-dee-dee, being a pirate is all right to be!
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate!

We got us a map (a map!) to lead us to a hidden box,
Thats all locked up with locks (with locks!) and buried deep away.
We'll dig up the box (the box!), we know it's full of precious booty
Burst open the locks, and then we'll say 'HOORAY!'

WEIGH ANCHOR!

At this point, three, including me, broke off into a short shanty, like a rap to accompany the full song.

I'm I pirate, that I be!
I sail a ship upon the sea, dawg,
I stay up late, 'till half past three!
And that be a peg below my knee!

Everyone came back to the full song. Good, I'm not a fan of rap.

Yah - har - fiddle-dee-dee, being a pirate is all right to be!
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate!

Arr - yarr - ahoy and avast, dig in the dirt and you dig in it fast!
Hang the black flag at the end of the mast! You are a pirate!

We're sailing away (set sail!), adventure waits on every shore!
We set sail and explore (ya-har!) and run and jump all day (Yay!)
We float on our boat (our boat!) until its time to drop the anchor,
Then hang up our coats (aye-aye!) until we sail again!

Yar - har - fiddle-dee-dee, being a pirate is alright with me!
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate!
Yar har wind at your back lads, wherever you go!
Blue sky above and blue ocean below, you are a pirate!

Everyone sat down and clapped for each other.

I woke up.

That was brilliant.

Went to bed 10:30 10/4/10
Supplement: Melatonin 5 Mg

I was on a different planet, that resembled a flat cratered moon with the color of mars. There was a contraption that looked like an L and it held a special suit. In order to use it, you were strapped in. I was standing in line with a ticket in my hand. I looked at the ticket, and then around the landscape. I realized, I've had this dream before. The planet's landscape looked way to familiar. I looked back at my ticket, and it looked very strange, almost as if the text was caved in on itself. It was different than before.
Lucidity.
The oh so familiar feeling flooded me, and I felt pins and needles in my hands and feet. I wasn't sure what to do in the dream, and i forgot how it went. As I turned around and looked behind me, I saw a line of people going as far back as the eye can see. "Dave." I hear my name called. I turn my attention to the sound, and I am next for the contraption. I decide to play along, and see how the dream turns out and be lucid at the same time. I go up and stand on the platform of the L contraption. A suit was strapped on to me, and I felt compressed in an air pressurized suit. It confused me still because we were surviving in an airless environment, and they are giving me air. I heard a "Go!" and I blasted off. Involuntary flying was a very weird feeling, and I didn't control the contraption. I just went... up. As I look down at the crowd, I see my mom goodbye. I feel extreme sadness, and I lose my concentration. My lucidity was lost, and then I woke up to my alarm with blurry and watery eyes.
6:00 AM

Went to sleep at 11:30 PM, 10/3/10
Melatonin: 5mg
WBTB 2:30 (feeling groggy)

Lay down, buzzing SP at what felt like ~10 minutes
Thinking about Halloween, costume ideas
After the trip, I find myself in a dark room without lights.

As I walk around the room I feel like a piece of my brain is missing.
Something feels different. Suddenly, a feeling overtook me.
Lucidity.
The room takes a different shape, and now I can make out a light switch in the dark. As I approach the light switch, the room begins to distort and twist while I stand still.
Fearing the worst, I default landscape into my driveway.

It's night time. A slight breeze tosses and turns my hair. I am walking with my friend down my driveway. As proportion and relativity becomes clear, he is talking to me about my Halloween costume. I am wearing only my swim suit. I don't feel cold, but experience occasional shivers as we walk further down the street. A pillowcase in hand, we make our way to the first house. I decide that I want to be alone, and my friend dissipates from the dreamscape. As soon as the thought had crossed my mind, it had happened so quickly I realized just moments later. I walk up to the door, and it appears to be your average colonial style frame. I start to say "trick or tr-" and the door opens. A middle aged man confronts me, and asks for a trick. The idea of being a god and using a super power pops into my head. I began to remember about the ToTM and grew excited about remembering this task. I decide to be Dionysus because I had never been drunk in a lucid before. Soon a bottle of hennessy in one hand, and a pillowcase in the other had me satisfied. As I conjured the cognac, the man at the door grew weary of my so called "trick" even though I thought it was the coolest thing. He grabbed the cognac, and shut the door on me. I was bewildered. I decided to get angry and open the door, but the handle was no longer there. As I ponder how to retaliate, ideas flooded my mind, but they were cloudy and I could not make any sense of them. I was losing grasp of lucidity, and decided not to fight it.

The next thing I know, I was awoken by my alarm.
6:00 AM

The dream opened up and I was sitting at the edge of a lake talking with a friend of mine. My house and his house were both at the edge of the lake but all of the other houses on the street (and the whole neighborhood) were taken up by the lake. Behind me a lot of people were arriving at my house including my grandparents and my grandma's sister. After a while I went up to the house and gave a round of hugs before going in.
Inside I sat down at a table with my friend's sister playing cards. I never talk to her in real life but we sat there playing cards and eating chips for quite a while. We talked about different things but I can't really remember any thing we talked about. When we stopped playing cards we cleaned up and sat on the floor for a while. he only thing I can remember her sayng was how she didn't like to eat over at other people's houses (which I don't think is true but I don't know her very much) but that this instance was ok kinda because it was a party setting.

Was in downtown bellevue where Leo and I were going to go do some errands. We went to some licensing place. I was part vampire. I realized I was dreaming but decided to go with this dream partially to extend it. I let Leo continue to talk to the lady while I went outside and practiced my energy balls. Before I became lucid Leo and I found 6 alien pods and released them. We found out we were aliens too and together we blew up downtown bellevue. All of a sudden the cars stopped coming and everything became peaceful and quiet. This is what it would be without any humans. Suddenly another stream of cars came. Darn I didn't get all of them. Half the city was in ruins. The two other aliens were girls. While Leo was inside the building and I was lucid I went to go see them. They were having sex with eachother. I laughed and they laughed and continued making out. I told them I wanted help with my energy balls and they said after they were done. They were in some giant pod. I went away a little and looked in the building to see Leo still talking. I gathered up as much energy as I could and shot it all across the building lines. Nothing happened. Again I failed to shoot. I did are some smoke coming out of those buildings. I was partially surprised and happy. I went in and the lady said we had to pay our tickets aor the police would find us. We both laughed and left. Leo also knew he was dreaming and we discussed our next plan. We wanted to blow up Seattle and then the world. We had to go to our base to figure it the next plan. We gathered the others and ran super speed. Before we did that I practiced my super speed. I ran from one spot to another. At first I was a bit rusty then I remembered how to do it. We raced for fun. I remember kara saying how good she was at flying and I though it would he so much easier to just fly. I burst forward and got too high. I landed with fear. This time I went lower to the ground and it was breathtaking. I really loved how amazing it was to fly with control. I flew all the way to our base. And waited for the others to arrive. I pondered my lucidity. I felt as if I was in this dream for hours and loved it. I wondered if I would ever wake. The others finally came and we talked about how we were going to blow up Seattle. We were going to run there and release more pods. I grew extremely excited to kill more humans. I pondered a little more about the weirdness of the length of this dream. I did forget about half the info of this dream. It was REALLY LONG. As I thought this the sun grew brighter. I tried to look away but it followed me. I had a FA. I woke and was so excited to have this lucid. I instantly began writing it down. Random people would come in and talk to me. I woke for real.

I was the owner of luna. My uncle basic wanted her and I decided to give her to him. Baron was being really bad and kept running off on his own. Vadic finally came and I gave her to him. I cried a little because I didn't want to give her away. It was really passionate.

Theres this guy who keeps showing up in my dreams. He's mostly white but a little black. He was just in my lucid too though i forgot to mention him. Ill start from the becoming of the dream. I was in class. My regular partner wasn't there for some reason. The class was half yoga and half school type. We did a sequence of yoga. When that was done the class just hung out and ate food. Karas brother was there. I went to say high to him and the teachers came behind me and grabbed my back kind of sexually. Riley started crying but I made him laugh. I moved away from the teacher and went to tina the new yoga teacher. I told her about the other teachers I had and she said they couldn't teach me what she could. I asked her a few random questions and told her I didn't want to disturb her from her lunch. She held eye contact without blinking or moving her eyes. Class was over and it was time to go meet up with my partner but he wasnt there. I was panicking. He is generally my lucid partner. I go up to someone and he says hes are my partner. I don't believe him and he tries to convince me that he is. Another guy comes and says he is my partner. I believe him and am so relieved. He looks a but weird so I ask him which room did my last lucid start and he said the wrong place. I knew he wasnt my partner. I leave them both and go into some computer room where I find him. He says hey and is with a naked black woman like in my other dream. I laugh and wake.

This is my third day of trying to get a LD. On day 1, I had MILD/DILD, but woke up just seconds after realizing I'm dreaming. Nothing on day2, can't recall even a regular dream.

So I did my mantras - "Next time I dream I RC and realize I'm dreaming" and did couple of RCs - Nose Plug and Finger through Palm, also looking at my hand while asking "Am I dreaming", since this had worked for me the first time.

So on day 3 I can recall 3 regular dreams.

Dream #1. Something is chasing me. Looks big, like a Mech/robot. It is outside, I'm inside a one story, semi-circular building, quite bright, looks like an old fortress, running from room to room, ducking by windows so he can't see me. Not really scared, it's more like a game to me, although I know it's not a game. I know he can't get me. Building was clean, no dark shadows, smooth very light grey bricks, I kinda liked it. Outside was nice grass.

[I just remembered, that I added to my mantra "My dream will be bright and clear" . Until now, most of my dreams were kinda in a soup of brown, grey, more on the dark side]

Dream #2 I was in a large building, very bright, lots of windows and artificial lighting. Rooms were big, with hospital beds, and there was lots of people, but didn't feel like hospital, maybe like a mental institution? But everybody looked normal to me I was walking down this large room with big and bright windows on the left and I was trying to escape from there. When I got maybe 5 feet from the open glass door/window, alarm sounded and the doors closed. There were two nurses right by the window trying to repair a wall-mounted radio, so I helped them out and fixed it. Immediately there was a song on a radio - female voice. After this I was able to talk one of the nurses (black male)to open the door for me and he buzzed me out. Suddenly there was a bunch of people after me, I somehow thicked them into a large kitchen and closed the door after them. later I looked in and they were all eating from the fridge.

Dream #3. I'm in a hospital room with 2-3 of my friends, but we are just renting this room. We are on school trip where we go from town to town and it's time to pack and go to the bus to continue on our trip. Room was very bright, lots of light, white colors. Some of my friends have already packed and took their suitcases, but I'm still trying to figure out, what time we are leaving. Nobody is telling me. They show me a yellow phone and tell me to call #10, they will tell me. I pick up the receiver of an old, rotary phone but for some reason I don't want to call.
[In waking life, i don't really like telephones]. Then two nurses show up, they look kind of old-fashioned. Purses hanging from their arms, sweater around shoulders, and one of them tells me that they can figure out what time we are leaving, because that's the time their shift will start (since we were just renting the room to sleep over and didn't need the nurses, they would come back to work when we leave.] They were laughing and everybody was relaxed.

Yeh...i remember nothing from last night </3
Sorry for the pointless entry, for some reason I seem to have OCD in that I want to clear my mind and track my dream progress even if I had none.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Two dreams last night, recall has been quite alright this week.

21.00: Sleep

05.10: Dreams
*I'm on a bus with a group of people. We're going skiing and I'm worried about my wrists. We arrive at the big slope and it looks pretty awesome. The bus stops and everyone gets off. We have to stand in line for a while and I forget about the skiing as some fireworks go off all around us. I hear a huge explosion from far away and people start pointing. I stand almost hypnotized as enormous red explosions take place far up in the sky. They make a big star in the sky, which is itself made out of smaller stars and pentagrams.

*I'm working and my coworker Danne, who's driving an excavator is there. We're digging a big trench. Three women come up to me. "Where is the gas?" they ask. One of them has her eyes very close together. I feel uncomfortable looking at her. "It might be over there or there" I say and point. I figure they're some kind of inspectors.

05.10: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 8 hours

Supplements: None

That's it! Ordered soem L-Theanine and 5-HTP yesterday. Gonna try them out on Saturday if I get lucid on Friday, or next weekend to see if they're any good.

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

Well, that's how it ended anyhow lol

I woke at 6AM, fell back to sleep by 7. I woke up again at 9:15 and in that short period of time, I had some really strange dreams.

As far as I recall, the first dream/dream scene was of food going to waste on the stove at my grams house. There was a LOT of food, from beans and potatoes, veggies and some meat that looked like caviar when cooked thoroughly. THen I was throwing all of the food into a trash bag. Someone wanted some of the food but I told them it wasn't good for people. It had been left out too long but I didn't want it going to waste so I was feeding it to the dogs.
Then there was something about a stray (?) and my little dog that I've forgotten.

The next thing I remember is grocery shopping. There was some Long John's style tilapia for $33. I wanted it desperately but didn't have enough money.

Then I was driving and got turned around and lost. An elderly couple told me how to get back onto the interstate.

From there, I was with 3 kids. We walked through what looked like a yard decorated with a winter holiday theme. In the ground was a large decorative key. I heard something under it, so I smashed the key and there was an entrance way to some rollercoaster type ride. I had to suspend myself in mid air and wait for the ride to be under me. I slung the kids into it then dropped. Once I was on it, it looked more like a subway train.
Someone started pursuing us. My memory gets fuzzy so I recall nothing until someone was standing over some man with a syringe to kill him.
I grabbed the syringe then took off flying. I wanted to talk to my hubby about what I had seen.

I get to his house but it looks different. Instead of the front porch, there was a breezeway which opened directly at the door to hubby's bedroom. I want to surprise him, so I just walked in. There were two guys on either side of him. He was laying in bed and the men were performing oral sex on him. Then I noticed there were scores of other people in the room. Most of them were in the 50's-60's and they had been watching the whole thing. It was like a stage secret society.
I was pissed. I told them to get out and I shamed them. Hubby wouldn't look me in the eye. Then I woke up.

Okay I don't remember most of the details of these ones (dreamt all this on 5/10 but I'm writing this from the futureee), I need to either write better notes when I wake up or post them on here sooner lol


- I brought friends home and my mom was home early. I asked why, and she said "because you took half the day off". I told her that meant I didn't want her around lol.


- I was on a trip with my cousin and my grandmother. We were all on these separate but huge beds trying to sleep, except I was laying sideways. One of them asked me to turn off the lights but I didn't.

I was reading nedroid comics on my iPod. Then I was looking at this calendar on his site that had previews up. There was one picture that was mostly warm toned that said "who wants to fly?" then had two flying cats, one saying to the other "you're doing great!". Another was mostly cool toned and had a penguin zooming by on skates in an icy place at night, leaving a trail of light behind him.

I went back to comics then and looked at one that involved someone saying "yeah you telephone." I made a comment about it out loud, and my grandmother asked what he said. I didn't wanna say for some reason, but eventually did really quietly, and she was like "okay go to school." Then there was something about how I had to give her money because 'it was her money anyway'.


- ..I'll just put here what I wrote in my notes: "Lots of stabbing in MLP". I'm sure it made sense at the time I wrote it, but shortly after getting up I couldn't remember anything at all pertaining to that phrase. xD


- I was staying in this weird kinda small inn with my cousins for a night. The surrounding area looked like a spot downtown in my city. The next day, we all left, but I realized I couldn't find my iPod, so I went back with one other person (don't remember who) to see if it was at the inn. I was on phone MSN.

We talked to the girl at the desk, and she said we could go look. The whole place was kind of cramped and messy, but kind of homey feeling, with dimmed lights and lots of mismatched colours everywhere. I searched through our room, then went to another one to look, bumping into someone in the hall on my way. The room was quite messy, the walls were yellow and the mattress was just sitting on the floor. I looked all around in blankets on the floor and stuff, but didn't find anything.

Suddenly I realized my iPod had been tucked into the waistband of the PJ pants I was wearing the whole time. I said I'd found it and whoever I was with left. On my way out, I said bye to the nice blonde girl at the desk, and found out that she was a robot.

I left and it was dark out. I remember walking downhill and seeing that across the street there were a bunch of old looking streetlamps lined up close to one another all the way down. It didn't really look like downtown anymore. I ended up at the mall and went in. It was packed, and I was kind of embarrassed because I looked awful and messy and was in my PJs, but shrugged it off and walked through the food court to get to the other end.

I ended up at this weird almost lobby kind of place that was between the exit of the mall and the exit to outside. It was all white and tiled, and had a place where it turned off into a changing room for some reason. I went in there and then came back out and sat on a silver metal bench that was there. There was also a dad and his two sons there, they were looking at me kind of weirdly. Eventually I got up and left.

I stood outside the door, it was dark and rainy and looked like downtown again. I looked at my phone and it was around 10pm. I called my mom and asked if she could come pick me up. She told me that she and some other people had just gone to some really cool play or show I was supposed to be at too, but I missed it. I was a little disappointed but not too much.


- This wasn't from this night but the description of the inn above reminded me of a dream I think I had sometime so I'm gonna write here what I remember. I was in someone's house that I didn't know very well. It was massive, all the floors and ceilings were white, and all the walls were different soft lavenders and blues. All the furniture was white or silver as well and there was lots of crystal around. There were decorations on the walls like this one textured white and beige framed seashell picture. I was in a room with a crib in it. There's totally more but I can't quite grasp it.


...Apparently I can remember some stuff after all hahah.
