    1. Battle Royale and Star Wars Saga

      by , 01-10-2012 at 09:50 PM
      There was a manga called Battle Royale where a classroom was taken out of school and forced to fight for survival on a island. This dream is a lot like it. This dream was actually yesterday but I couldn't be bothered write it up.
      Dream
      I was in a weird place with white walls that had black patterns on them. I was with some guy who had shades and long black hair. I forged an alliance with saying that I wouldn't kill him, I eventually did kill him. I met up with his brother after killing him. I felt bad so I guess I let him kill me.

      Yeah it was non-lucid so I say I'm not reponsible for my actions. I think of killing people.

      Dream 2
      I was in a Star Wars army. First I'm on the Coruscant surface but its like a game where you create a town and only create one square. I can see blackness around. The buildings I run around and get into a ARC-170 fighter and took off the dream faded.


      And I'm back only I'm in a mix of Row:The Third and Coruscant. I'm on foot and make my way to a tower, it's night time and the are enemy ships in the sky.

      Fade out and in. I'm somewhere that I'm unfamiliar with. I'm used to all this Star Wars stuff so I do a nose plug and run into a X-Wing and take off, shooting at TIE fighters, I would guess.

      I'm assuming that since I went lucid and followed the plot of the dream, I lost lucidity and faded into another dream where I was on Hoth but I could see Space, not only that it was like I was in a space ship even though I had just left the Snowspeeder hangar. I looked down the plains of snow and saw Star Destroyers. I took cover and started shooting at them. Like a little blaster projectile is going to damage an entire Imperial vessel.
    2. War Part 1

      by , 01-10-2012 at 09:40 PM (INeverWakeUp's Super Dream Journal)
      1/10/12(Late Morning)

      ** I dream I am in an odd room. It's a lightless room made of all cement and we're in a full cement building. However there are huge windows all around the room. So even though we lack lights, we have the Sun' s natural light coming in and keeping everything bright enough. We're really only just sitting there BSing.*
      ** Well it's about time I explain who the the hell "we" is. It's myself of course. Then it's my good friend's girlfriend. Then the rest of the people are too vivid for me to remember. So not too sure there. Moving on!
      ** We now suddenly bring up the subject of "what is the true meaning of Christmas?" odd topic to discuss. I look outside. Just a beat down worthless city. Looks like a war happened here. I also notice no snow, which allows me to think we're nowhere near Christmas now.*
      ** I speak up now. I ramble on for about a minute or two telling everyone what I believe s the true meaning of Christmas. Everyone seems really enlightened by this. I do in fact state that being with family is the true meaning. Everyone seems very happy now. Not so sunk down like before.*
      ** I soon leave, and the next few parts of this dream are super vivid. I can't recall if I woke up temporarily or not. I do recall awakening once or twice if I'm correct. I can't recall though.*
      ** The dream is now very clear again. Appear to be walking back towards the building. I am very nervous. I am also very proud of myself. I do t know why yet, cause of the vividness.*
      ** I now spot two very hot girls. I can only recall one of them, and she is a hot girl I do know for real. The other one is two vivid, but I think knew her too. I approach the girls and stop them. I have each one stand on my sides. We continue walking and I begin to brag about something as we're going upstairs to the room I was previously in.*
      ** "Yeah, I just joined the Air Force you know." I brag. Air Force?! Oh hell no! Why would I ever join the Air Force?! "Yeah, I'm gonna be a pilot and all. Fighting for the country. Those jets don't fly themselves you know." The girls seem uninterested though and leave. Dammit! I joined the Air Force for nothing!*
      ** My dream now suddenly switches me over to a battlefield! I'm in battle gear and I have a lovely M429 Assault Rifle. Oh hell yeah bitches! Full auto, bipod, 100 round mag(I've got lay off the Battlefield 3...)!*
      ** I realize this is a massively important battle now, and get serious. We're in a war-ridden city. It could be the one I was just in and left a moment ago. But who knows for sure? It's really dark out, and dark storm clouds are high above. It could rain any second now!
      ** The commander instructs me to take someone out in a building up ahead. He's on the third or second(I don't recall exactly) to last top floor. I pull up my rifle and open fire. However, I believe I fail to hit. The commander seems pissed. He now instructs me to go plant charges in the building. Everyone else will keep suppressing fire to cover me.*
      ** I take some charges and dash out like a cheetah. My teammates unleash a massive suppressing fire on the enemy. It's working, I'll say that. Not a single bullet is fired at me. Its obvious we're trying to claim this city or something. This part of my dream might be a telling of how I got to that run down city in the first part of my dream. But I'm in the army in this part, so I think I'm playing separate roles in this dream. A refugee joining the air force, and now I'm a kick-ass marine!*
      ** I soon get into the building unharmed. There is some dim and crappy lighting in here. I don't like the feeling I'm getting in here. The dream becomes vivid now. However, it stabilizes after I've planted some explosives in the building. I begin to run off, and I'm now attacked. The dream becomes vivid again, and it begins to fade.*
      ** I however find myself now back at my old house. What the hell? Why does this crap keep happening dammit? I now see my friend Victor(previously known as Red, but no more nicknames for people I really know). He's dressed in full army battle gear. I realize I am too. There's also a huge platoon of us dressed up and ready to go.*
      ** Victor now hands me a helmet and a bag. I put the helmet on, which feels a little heavy already. I now put on the bag, which is extremely heavy. Something big and heavy is in it(well no shit Sherlock). I now say that this stuff is heavy. Victor doesn't seem to listen however. Ass...
      ** We now begin to sprint over towards my friend's house, whom lives a little diagonally to the right and behind my old house. This heavy crap is really slowing me down. I liked it better when I was a fast marine. I now think of when I was comparing MW3 to BF3 one time. Someone(I think my older brother) stated that the army is a heavier branch of the military. I makes sense to me now. Hooray for the fan-frigging-tastic army.*
      ** Now I realize his back yard is full of huge-ass puddles. I'm forced to run straight through one unfortunately. Oh well, that's what war is about. Gettin' down and gettin' dirty, right? I oddly start to run much faster in the water. That's pretty unusual I'd say.*
      ** We now stop in my friend's drive way. Someone unloads a bag by me. They set down a large object with huge spikes. It appears to be really heavy. I ask if that's what I have, but the guy ignores me. I now set down my bag, but then the dream becomes vivid and fades again.*
      ** I'm now sitting upon a tank. Okay, what the hell? So, I'm probably still in the army, but I'm a tank operative now? I'm probably just a ranger, or maybe an engineer. We appear to be in another city. We're moving in with a *huge tank convoy. Awesome, tanks rock!*
      ** Hm, I'm gonna take a guess in these two dream parts. The last one was most likely me as an army dude helping clear out through part of the city we're in now. This part is probably me as an army ranger with a convoy, securing this city. The city isn't beat down much either. I now soon awake.*
    3. Vacation / FA

      by , 01-10-2012 at 09:22 PM (Taffy's Sweet Dreams)
      I was on vacation in Florida or Mexico or someplace warm. We even brought a dog (it wasn't my dog, I don't know whose it was). We drove there, but wound up getting lost and having to walk through a desert

      Then I had a FA. I laughed at my brother because I recalled a dream and he didn't. (I don't think he even knows I lucid dream). I had some problems writing in my DJ, every time I typed something it disappeared.

    4. Dairy Queen & Science

      by , 01-10-2012 at 09:20 PM
      - I was with some people and we went to Dairy Queen. I knew where we were, it was in my city; there used to be a DQ in that spot, but it closed and was replaced with a really boring store. It was mostly unfinished concrete inside, but I was happy it was back. I was a bit sad because everyone else had done something fun beforehand but I wasn't invited.

      There was more to this but I didn't write it down soon enough.


      - I was with K, J, G, HG and NN, we were all hanging out for some reason and it was pretty cool. G was in a wheelchair he'd apparently borrowed from a random old lady, and was rolling everywhere very enthusiastically. I ran into S in what looked like a room under construction, she was complaining about something, then a piece of wood fell on her.

      Then I was in some kind of stadium or something. A tiny little girl came up to me dressed in pink and purple winter clothes and started staring at me. I smiled and said, "hi there!" She opened her mouth and a big cloud of smoke came out. I was really confused. Her mom came over. They were both Asian. The girl was still breathing smoke. I asked her mom why, and she told me the girl had some kind of disease. (she said the name and I got the impression it was a lung disease, but I don't remember what it was called) I felt awkward and was like "oh...sorry to hear that. she's really cute" or something, but it was really loud and she couldn't really hear me.

      Then I was trying to figure out what to do with my backpack. The people I was with were leaving but I couldn't decide whether I wanted to leave my backpack behind or not. Finally I decided to take it with me, and ran to catch up. I realized they didn't particularly want me there, but I stayed with them anyway. They were getting on an elevator and I had to run to catch it. G returned the wheelchair.

      Then we were walking down a hallway and one wall was just huge sheets of fabric that were sort of open. I saw inside it and told everyone it was "the science centre". We slipped in and went down the hall, I told them I wanted to show them a really cool exhibit of a replica of a Mayan(?) town or something. The walls were dark red and it was dimly lit. We hit a dead end after a bit, and the display I was talking about was there, but it wasn't as cool as I'd thought it was. There were shiny gold and silver sculptures of suns and moons on the back wall. On our way back, I noticed a display of bows and arrows on a wall, and we talked about how cool they were. One bow was rainbow and sort of patchy with bits of fabric on it, and one was salmon pink and really intricately carved. I inspected it for a bit as I went by.


      (next day update because I just remembered the part about the little girl)

    5. Laura, Amy, A House On Fire and the Face-Painted Shadowman (December 2011).

      by , 01-10-2012 at 09:06 PM
      One of the strangest dreams I've had to date, in my opinion. It involved two of my friends, one of whom I only know online (who I will call Laura), and the other I've only ever met once in my life (who I will call Amy).

      So.

      Amy, Laura and I were taking a trip to a small cottage in the middle of a meadow because we "wanted to see deer" (whatever that means!). The cottage was beautiful and the scene looked like something out of a painting. While the other two were out in the nearby forest, I stayed inside and decided to explore the house. I went into the basement, but there were no lights, so I couldn't see, and so I felt my way around. The walls were some kind of organic substance that felt like raw chicken. Disgusted, I ran back up the stairs and decided to find my friends.

      Suddenly, I was inside a food cart, but it was also a room (I don't know how else to explain it-- on the outside it was a food cart, but when I stepped inside, it was what appeared to be a hotel room). On a couch was my friend Will, but he didn't see me at all, no matter how many times I called out to him.

      Out of nowhere, I was back at the stone house. It was on fire. Somehow knowing my friends were inside, I ran in to go find them. I found Laura by a burning staircase, and at the top of the stairs was a man. He was very small and thin, much like Laura herself, with markings that looked as though somebody had taken a ballpoint pen to his body. Amy stood nearby, watching, looking terrified. I couldn't really make out the man's facial features or hair, because the top of the staircase was extremely dark, as though he just emerged from some dark void.

      He kept shouting at Laura to come join him, but she wouldn't go. Eventually, his requests became more and more frantic, but Laura kept declining. He told her that "they didn't have much time", but still, she declined his offer. Suddenly, the man fell apart. Literally fell to pieces; his limbs fell off and he melted into a pile of black plasma that began dripping down the stairs. The fire suddenly ceased and the house was in flawless condition. The dark ooze crawled up the walls in a vine-like fashion, and it was at that point Laura, Amy and I ran from the house.

      I then woke up and immediately recorded the dream into a journal, which I'm now using to type this entry. There are probably things in there that I don't remember, though.

      I told Laura about this later that day, and we discussed it for a long time. She was completely shocked and believes it to be a psychic dream, because my description of the man's stature/markings fit the exact description of her ex-boyfriend of 4 1/2 years, who she recently broke all contact with and was having doubts about her actions. There were a great many more things that made it all very eerie and more than just coincidence, but that's not my business to write on a public journal entry.

    7. Ld#13 dild/wild/obe?

      LD#13 DILD/WILD/OBE?

      Monday, 1/9/12 Bed 2am

      Before bed last night I read Waggoner’s Lucid dreaming book, I just finished it, as a matter of fact.

      Last pages deal with inducing DILDs via MILD. Formal and informal suggestions. I specifically paid attention to part from Castaneda’s book “The road to…”, how don Juan was telling him to look at his hands in his dream and Castaneda didn’t understand, how in the heck is he suppose to do it.

      So I looked at my hands while saying “tonight in my dream I will look at my hands and realize I’m dreaming”. I also said this every time I woke up at night, and at WBTB.

      DR: 3am Lots of people, bunch of thoughts, activities about Lding

      WBTB 6am-7:50am

      LD - woke up from LD at 9:40am

      I was trying to WILD, but fell asleep before anything happened. I had quite a long dream before I somehow realized I’m dreaming. So this would be a DILD. But I didn’t look at my hands. I did finger/palm RC and it was the weirdest one so far.
      My thumb went in just half way into my palm before I stopped pushing, because it was so real. Not like a playdough in previous RCs. When I pulled my thumb out, there was a big wound that started to close up, I could swear, there was blood. Quite uncomfortable.

      But I also remember trying to roll out and levitate out at the same time and I remember hovering above my bed and not knowing how to stand up. That would be WILD/OBE.

      LD- I’m in a big, one story house. Lots of rooms, lots of people. It’s some kind of a trip. My mom is visiting, rest of the family has left. I tell her, we should go and do something, since she is the only one left visiting.

      There was a bunch of kids and cats. Someone put some chicken soup in the yard for their cats, so all the cats from neighborhood were hanging around the yard and inside the house. One kid got eye infection and we were like oh, great, not everybody will get it.

      I somehow realized I’m dreaming. I’m floating around in a house, propelling myself by touching furniture. Suddenly my left had gets stuck to the cabinet. I look, and the cabinet handle was just fixed with some strong glue. I have to pull my hand hard to get it free, it feels like skin from my thumb will peel off.

      I get to the room I was before and think about what to do, when I remember I wanted to look at my cats in OOB. I see both of them and they look normal. I squat down and call them. My boy starts hissing and backs away, but a kitten that I don’t know goes after my hand and wants to play.

      Then I’m outside. It’s night. I remember I wanted to go to the moon. But I also remember, that I have changed my mind and wanted to stay close and explore the city. I look up and there is the moon, tiny, behind a mist and is rapidly getting smaller until it disappears.

      I start flying around, bouncing of bushes and trees. Everything feels real, branches hitting me in face, and I can smell jasmine and see it’s small white flowers everywhere. Try to fly up but not much luck.

      There are 3 tree trunks, like a birch, but completely white. I try to fly to the top, propelling myself with my hands, but it’s not easy. I wake up.

    8. Horns and bleeding profusely through the nose (1/10/12)

      by , 01-10-2012 at 08:39 PM
      I had a dream last night in which a giant, ibex-like horn grew from the left side of my skull. Whenever I tugged at it, my nose would start bleeding. Gratuitously. I was standing in a bathtub, and the last thing I recall before I woke up was that I was ankle-deep in my own blood, and that the torrent showed no signs of stopping. I can't remember if anything else happened, but I feel as though this is only a piece of the whole dream.

      I'm sure this has something to do with the sudden loss of a friend a few days ago. She didn't die, she just violently decided to end our friendship for reasons I've yet to learn. Hmm.

    10. Girl in Black Car, Me Driving, Trying to stop vehicle pressing honk (LOL), And much more............

      10.01.2012

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Dream 1:

      It's late at night, I believe I'm near a gas station. I see a beautiful girl inside of a black car with her friend. She tells me to get in, but I'm a bit skeptical because I'm worrying about something else. The girl looks like the girl who said April Fools to me when she told me she had a crush on me in High School.

      couldnt dream at all-1-10-02-gas-station.jpg

      So eventually she and her friend left and she's tells me, "Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee" with a smile on her face and such a kind tone to her. Then a Jeep shows up on my left and my father said I could drive it. Of course I have no experience in driving
      (well I do have some experience, but it was just driving a car in a huge oval near an empty parking lot near a school once or twice).

      He sets the vehicle to turn left, and I go in to drive it. I move up a little and he's in another vehicle. I think he tells me that I'm going to far and that other cars might bump into me, so I reverse the vehicle a little, but when too far. Then he leaves and goes to the right instead of showing me where to go.

      So I go left and stop at the light. Then I'm in another dream scenario where it's afternoon I believe and I'm driving the vehicle again and instead of pressing the brake, I'm holding on to the horn of the vehicle (basically honking to stop) and then I realize I'm on different vehicle (probably a bike but I couldn't tell).

      I had to stop it with slamming my feet (I had white shoes on) on the ground really hard.

      Then I think I had a another scenario where I'm riding and I meet a DC that looks like a guy I know IRL. Let's call him "Kevin." I go up to Kevin to see if he can help me with something, but I forget what it was exactly.

      Then when I'm riding I see him again, in a different outfit, and he's walking randomly on the grass. So I asked him another question that I cannot remember.

      (I forget what happens next from that part) Then the scenario changes again where I'm inside my apartment complex, and I tell a DC who looks like another person I knew IRL, let's call him "Av" instead of his full name. I told Av to go inside the vehicle and lock it. He starts saying that he has the keys and nothing bad will happen.

      Then a black female DC comes up near us and finally convinces the kid to comply with what I wanted him to do because I didn't want some random stranger breaking in the vehicle
      (I don't know why I didn't let "Av" come in and wait for me instead of putting him out in danger like that). I think her reason for him going inside and locking the vehicle was because there was an Auto repair shop, and said they could probably wire the vehicle if they could go in.

      All I remember for that one.

      I'm on Day 7 of the FIELD induction technique, I think it's helping me remember more of my dreams.

      Dream 2:

      I believe I was playing an MGS game again, or maybe it was me in the dream. Anyway, I see like two yellow metal containers that had an oblong shape to them. I see a guard coming out of the door, and I immediately hide to the backside of the area I'm in and watch him walk a little to the right and then forward to the containers.

      The setting was probably in a cold region
      (kind of like the part in MGS1 where you had to sneak outside in the cold of Shadow Moses) and it was dark too.

      couldnt dream at all-metal-gear-solid-11.jpg

      There were also maybe 3 red small containers of the same shape as well, and since this felt like a video game, red most likely meant they were explosives. Then I decided to shoot one of the yellow containers, and apparently it spews out poison and acid, and it immediately kills the guard.

      His body vanishes just like when you kill a guard in MGS1
      (it flashes a bit and then goes away). Another guard comes out and I shoot the last container when he gets close and he dies as well.

      I can't remember anything else from that dream.

      Dream 3:

      Apparently I'm on some forum, and Pam from The Office is bitching about something I'm doing on the forum. I forgot what it was specifically, and I think below her post was Itsuki from Yu Yu Hakusho hosting some IRC party.



      Dream 4:

      I'm inside a house, and a black dog with a brown fur on its stomach comes to me when I call it. I put my hands out for it to come, and it bites me, but it's not angry or anything, I think it was just playing with me and having fun.

      Then another dog is sleeping on a bed, and it has strings of balls up its butt (wtf)

      Too disturbing to explain, so pointless that dream was.

      Dream 5:

      I'm walking inside of a school, most likely High School because I saw a DC that looks like a principal of Cy-Lakes High School and a female athletics coach talking to each other.

      I was with a group of students and a fire alarm initiated. I forgot the response everyone had when that happened, I know I quickly went down the stairs, and I see the principal DC and the female with her say something about students being so wild over a fire alarm.



      As I go out, I wait for a small line of cars coming out of a parking station you had to pay for. One allows me to walk past them, but the next section, a bus or something like that just dashes through before I can keep walking.

      Dream 6:

      Hiei and Makuro are talking to each other like they did in episode 109 of Yu Yu Hakusho. But this seems to be after the tournament was over though, they were in a forest I think, and they were probably having another fight with each other.



      I think Makuro wanted to see how strong Hiei was
      (and consciously I was interested to see how strong he was too because in the actual episode, he did his most strongest technique, but wasn't able to kill Makuro because he couldn't fuel it with hatred anymore).


      I can't remember all of the details of the fight, but things start slow of course. Then Hiei gets a little more serious and suddenly is flash-stepping all over the place and Makuro is panicking and trying to keep up with his speed!

      Spoiler for Insight on Hiei and Makuro:


      Hiei then has a gold aura (he had a blue aura in the actual episode, yet I didn't notice that for some reason) forming around his body and Makuro gets serious and has red aura around her body too (I'm assuming it's red because in the actual fight it was ).

      couldnt dream at all-eg109_37b.jpg

      Hiei charges up by putting parts of his body close together and releases these golden bursts of energy spikes at Makuro.

      I think Makuro's head is chopped off into a few pieces. I thought she was going to die, but she's still alive. She picks up the pieces of her head and re-attaches it. Hiei said he would never kill her, but he wouldn't mind licking the blood spewing out from her head.

      If I remember correctly, Hiei chopped off the head of the swordsman who gave him his third eye, while sacrificing his arm to do in the actual anime, and Makuro repaired both of their bodies as a reward for an interesting fight. Funny how my dream turn things around to where Makuro is the one getting part of her body chopped off.

    11. Ex-lovers.

      by , 01-10-2012 at 07:52 PM
      M a y n a r d.

      But I'm going to be selfish and keep that part to myself.

      I really don't feel like explaining the entire dream, but there is one part that is bothering me. In the dream, my fiancee's ex-girlfriend came by while he was sleeping. Her hair was purple instead of blonde and she wore a strange hippie/hobo outfit that matched her hair. I didn't even know it was her until she started to leave. She came to the door and was trying to keep her head down while telling me to give 'these' to T. 'These' was a portfolio of paintings she had made and had wanted him to see. I asked her who she was and she just hurried off. Then I realized who it was and called her by name. She turned to look at me, but continued to leave. As I was standing in the doorway, I called T's name to wake him. She protested with a gesture and was gone. I went back inside and hesitated about opening the portfolio. I decided not to and laid it on the counter. I went off to one of the bedrooms. I was talking to someone (my ex I believe) but he actually looked and sounded like my fiancee. He was commenting on what just happened, saying, "that was weird." When I went back into the living room, the portfolio was torn to pieces. My "ex" picked up some pieces and said, "Wow, these are actually really good." I was scared. I hadn't expected my fiance to wake up so soon or what kind of reaction he would make. I wandered down the hallway after hearing his voice. He was talking real muffled and I thought it was him crying for a moment. He was in the bathtub and I peeked it. I felt bad for him and asked if he was okay. He directed all of his anger at me by shouting at me to leave. I began to cry.

      Then in the same dream, but much later, one of my REAL ex-boyfriends was trying to hook up with me. I don't know what this was all about, but I wish I hadn't had the dream about my fiancee's ex, those are ALWAYS bad for me. But, I think about my Maynard dream and smile.

    12. Relative's wedding, small bed, pixel ceiling, try to fly, monster

      by , 01-10-2012 at 07:19 PM (Hypatia's Dream Journal)
      My family and I were getting ready for the upcoming wedding of a family member (note: this wedding is upcoming IRL). My sister and I were trying to get dressed and pack our purses. I was in a state of stress because nothing was going well. I couldn't find my cell phone, my hair was unruly. For some reason, I was desperately scooping up potato chips and dip on the floor into a bag, as they were some kind of joke my sister had set up. I eventually found my phone, but it was low on power - how could I navigate to the venue without GPS in my car? Fortunately, a shared shuttle that looked like a cable car and contained some of my relatives stopped by, and we boarded.

      Later in (I think) the same dream, I was in my grandparents' house in a room with many beds. This is the same house my cousins and I would stay in when we were little. As an adult in the dream, I was much too large for my "bed," which was little more than a doll's wooden rocking crib. I woke up (from one dream) in this bed, and realized I'd split it in two. My cousin's weren't impressed.

      I stood up from the bed and realized I was dreaming. I hadn't performed a reality check of any sort. It just occurred to me that this wasn't reality. Once I realized it was a dream, the world spun and I did circles in place to stay asleep. It worked, and I continued with a few reality checks. First, I looked at my wedding band. It was there, and the metal wasn't shifting (my typical reality check), but I realized it was thinner in the dream than IRL. I wondered if it was actually a poor reality check after all and noted that I should think about it once awake.

      Next, I decided to fly, since I'd been having trouble doing so. I used the advice in the forums and simply assumed I could take to the air. And I did - for a moment, but then had trouble and started merely hovering. Boo.

      Some kind of demon or monster came up at this point and grabbed me. I told it to get lost, since this was a *lucid* dream, and if I couldn't even keep monsters at bay then I utterly sucked at lucid dreaming. The monster wasn't particularly scary, but he grabbed me and I was in a pool of water, so it was difficult to spin in place to keep the dream going. I managed to free myself and spin.

      I started thinking about the artistic possibility of this lucid dream, and my thoughts became temporarily lost in books I'd read, like the Wheel of Time series. I was in a long building with a high ceiling, and suddenly looked up. A beautiful, animated lightshow was happening on the ceiling. The entire surface seemed pixelated - made of blueish metal squares. But in clumps and shapes, rainbow-colored groups of pixels were bulging and sliding like a bioluminescent mushroom, sending waves of color through the whole ceiling. I watched the show for a moment, wondering how "surprises" and new images are conjured up in a dream that I'm aware of.

      After I'd looked long enough at the ceiling, I decided to try and improve my dream control. I decided to create the simplest of environments - a blue sky and black ground - to practice flying in. This environment started to come into view, but I struggled to sustain it,
      and eventually "woke up" into (I believe) another dream, in which I didn't realize was lucid and didn't remember.
    13. Jessica

      by , 01-10-2012 at 07:13 PM (Dream Journal)
      I am with Jessica and we are at a baseball game looking for our seats, although it felt more like we were walking around inside of Costco. We are holding hands and walking with one another like we once did in waking life. We try to ask for help by showing our ticket to someone who works there, but it was no help. I try to bribe one of the workers to get us good seats by offering him a $20 bill. He is interested, but he could not deliver.

      The scenery changes and I am somewhere in the outdoors, like in a clearing in a forest. Jessica is in the scene but away from me. There are also now many more people. We are arranged in a big circle like a carousel, and Jessica is directly across the circle from me with her friend (Ellen?). Though I am facing straight at her, she is in the furthest position from me. Every one in the circle has a rope/branch they are holding on to that reaches into the sky and and appears to converge in the center, but does not seem to be connected to anything. The circle begins to spin and we are lifted airborne by holding onto the branch. This is similar to one of those rides at the carnival that spin around in circles.

      As we are spinning, my attention is focused on Jessica, who is directly across the circle from me. Directly next to me are some attractive girls. As we are spinning on this "ride" the girl next to me puts her legs around me and kisses my chest in a flirtatious kind of way. I enjoyed this but I notice that Jessica begins to get upset from seeing this. In this dream, she is still my girlfriend.

      I felt the intimacy and protectiveness that I had not experienced in a long time. The dream gave me a sense of nostalgia and made me miss my ex girlfriend.

    14. The seal

      by , 01-10-2012 at 05:27 PM (Ruesia's Dream Journal)
      Dreamt Monday 1/9/12. I only remember fragments

      I had a group of sea animals as friends. I could talk to them. But, somehow, someone stole my seal. He was a harp seal, speckled and fat. He was just an adolescent, shifting from a white fluffy infant into a slick, black adult. Someone wanted him for his pelt. I was panicked, trying to find him. I knew what demise he would meet if I couldn't save him.

      --

      I was in the ship with him-- my spirit, not my body. It was filled with ice to keep him comfortable. My other sea creature friends had found him. There was a large whale beneath the ship. He vowed to save my seal. He rammed the freighter with his powerful body. Part of the hull burst and water came crashing in. My seal just sat there, waiting for the ship to sink so he could escape. Somehow I could communicate telepathically with my sea creature friends and I told the whale to not let the ship sink completely, because I didn't know where they were. To bring the ship into port so I could save my seal.

      I got into my car and drove to the nearest port. I "knew" it was Alaska or Canada-- the Northern area. I acted like I was waiting for a shipment. One of the port workers began to question me and I indicated I was waiting for an oil shipment.

      My whale friend let me know he was close. In my mind, I saw my seal pup frolicking in the ship. I knew the whale was carrying the half-sunken ship on his back into the port. However, for some reason, I lost my connection with my friends at that moment. I frantically began to look around the port.

      No ship came in. I was afraid. Worried. I couldn't contact my friends and I did not see the ship. The icy water was black and churning with malice. I could only imagine something had happened and my poor seal and his friends; downed by a loose wire or net on the sea floor by the port.

      It had been quite awhile that I waited and I began to retreat to my vehicle. As I walked by a little docking section, I noticed some children laughing. I looked down and saw some adolescent seals playing in the water. I ran to the dock and searched the waters. I couldn't hear or call to my friend. Suddenly, I saw my seal. He was there!

      I called out to him. He saw me and leapt up on to the dock. I began to sob uncontrollably as I hugged his icy, wet body. Most of his white fur had shed but he still had a thick, white line running diagonally across his forehead. This is how I recognized him. For some reason, I couldn't talk to him anymore telepathically, but that didn't matter. He was home.

    15. The Burglar

      by , 01-10-2012 at 05:16 PM (Ruesia's Dream Journal)
      Dreamt Saturday 1/7/12

      It was morning. Still dark. It was cold. M and I were getting ready. The dogs were barking. I thought this was strange, since we lived on a dirt road. I saw headlights coming down the road. A car pulled in to our drive. There was a "Papa Johns" pizza sign on the car. I thought to myself, "They must be lost." I continued getting ready, curiously watching. M didn't seem concerned. I saw a man get out of the car (no more than a boy really) carrying a pizza bag. I held my breath and watched him walk to our front door. He didn't knock. He stood there. I was in the hall now, watching the door. I saw the knob turn. My stomach lurched. I whispered to M, "He's coming in..." In horror I slunk back in to the back room with M and we listened to the man creep into the house. I heard the car door open and shut and another set of feet on the gravel in the front.

      It wasn't but 5 seconds until he found us, but it felt like an eternity of waiting. He had a maniacal grin on his face and he muttered to us, "You won't be leaving this house alive." Somehow I knew that the bag he held didn't contain a pizza pie, but instead tools to hack us to bits.

      I immediately began searching for something to strike him with. I saw a younger woman enter the house as well. M had an axe in his hand and he began to fight with the man. I grabbed a lunge whip and hit the girl in the face. I was screaming at her; at them. When she went to scream back, I took the whip and shoved it in her mouth, then kept pushing until it was guided down her throat. She was choking and I was shoving her out of the house. M was closer to the door and I screamed for him. I ran out and started to climb up the side of the house toward the roof. The girl followed me. I turned around and rammed my right thumb into her eyeball. Blood spurt out and I just kept pushing as she screamed in a shrill voice of panic. I then kicked her down and started screaming for M to follow me.

      He and the man were out in the yard. M held the axe, waiting for the stranger to take the first step. I started crying for help. "PLEASE! HELP US! WE'RE BEING ATTACKED! PLEASE HELP US!!!" Dawn was breaking and I looked at the neighbors' homes. They were quiet; peaceful. They looked like no one was home. I continued to panic. M finally knocked the strange man down with the axe, then clambered up on the roof beside me and we held off the would-be invaders from getting up on the roof.

      --

      Next thing I remember is the police pushing the two attackers into a police car. The neighbors were around us, asking if we were okay. I was dazed and confused. Uncle Les was there- he was telling me something. I can't remember what.
