There is going to be a "history graph" tomorrow (in my Thread-DJ (click)). It won't be totally interesting because I haven't been marking my dreams with the app or actually using the reminders, but it will be a start for what's to come.

I was with Dread and I was lucid. We were in a video game palace room. The room was kind of small, but it had a porch. From the porch, I realized that this room was suspended in air. Some of the walls were made out of leafs, other glass, and some marble.

Dread was lucid as well. We were enjoying each other's company , but this annoying woman was invading our space. Somehow, we knew her name. Her name was Angel.

She kept trying to get in between us and/or kept trying to focus the attention on herself. We eventually managed to push her out of our dream.

I was playing around and showed Dread how I could pull energy out of myself and watch it suspend in the air. My energy was made up of two different elements: Feminine and Masculine. Words were written within the energies, and we watched as they slowly changed and morphed.

At one point, Dread got too excited and woke up. I knew he'd be back in a few minutes, so I spent some time fixing our palace. Some of the marble blocks were falling out of place, so I'd try to push them back in. It was difficult because they wanted to remain where they were, so they'd just snap back into their incorrect positions.

When Dread came back, I snapped to where he was, which was slightly different in terms of scene.

He rekindled my lucidness and we started talking about our dreams together, and the leafy palace.

Here I am not sure if what I said was a product of false dream memory, or if it was really true: But basically, I remembered that this was a common occurrence for us - that this lucid dream of a leafy castle was not the first, second, or third time that we have been here. That this happened often, but the dream memories usually were lost from deep sleep and stress.

I'm not sure whether to believe myself or not. I find that when I am closer to the dream state, AKA experiencing HH or about to enter a dream, I can recall dreams that I had forgotten before, which are verifiable when I wake up.

It was my turn to get too excited, and woke up.

I think I figured out how to mark my lucids/dreams on the graph, but I can only do it when the actigraph is still collecting data.

I was at my primary school and nobody was there, since it looked so creepy I decided to take a picture of one of the buildings. Once the photo had printed (seemingly out of nowhere) I looked at it to see a ghostly face in the window. I looked up at the real window and saw the spooky face still there, staring straight at me. Then it moved and I saw it was actually a school child, as it stepped outside I looked around to see that the playground was now filled with children (all of them playing dodgeball). I joined in for a while before going to help some kids on the monkey bars. They were't like the normal bars, I had to first balance it like a seesaw so a child could get on and then try and walk across. After I made a colourful square out of lego and said it could be used as my avatar on DV (Why did I not RC here!? ). Then I was outside the school looking for my headphones, I found a pair on the floor but they were the wrong ones and the wire was about 10 meters long. I went to the house I found them outside of and the old lady there said she'd found my pair, so we swapped and I went away. The dream ended.

I was walking down my lane with a girl with black hair (<-- HER AGAIN! I think she may be my DG or even another dreamer who always shares my dreams!). We were trying to escape the hold of the government and we'd tried everything we could. The only thing left which we could try was to fight. We continued to walk and I quickly text a friend to remind her of something (I think it was to charge her phone). Then once under the bridge at the end of my lane I drew the two swords off my back, the swords of a ninja. I saw what loked like an army of people coming towards us. The girl with black hair I noticed was unarmed so my priority was to protect her, I fought for our lives and must have slaughtered about 50 enemies. But suddenly one either caught me off guard or had a decent level of skill as they sent one of my swords flying. After a frantic battle I managed to gain my other sword back but it was broken. Even so I managed to kill the enemy. The dream ended here and what a brilliant one it was!

I was doing the last house on my paper round and the grass outside their house was abnormally long and overgrown. I reached the door and put the paper through, but then I heard the lady on the other side of the door say that she wanted the other paper (the one that I was holding). So I put that through too. Then I went up to the village shop with my mother and brother. I wanted to buy some peanut butter to help me get lucid (Why did I not RC here either!?!?!? ). Whilst I was looking among the shelves this shady looking man came up to me and tried to sell me something. I said no and he replied "Do you want me to teach you how to sell stuff and make alot of money?" I said yes. He then proceeded to pick up a book and after making it look well used he sold it for £15 which he then gave to me. But the price on the book actually said £50 in the first place so it wasn't a good method! I couldn't find what I wanted in the end so left and the dream ended.

I was at school and was hungry so I went down to the cafeteria. It was near the end of lunchtime so I knew there wouldn't be much food left, I grabbed a couple of sausages (<-- becoming a recurring theme) and ate them before heading off for my tutorial lesson. When I arrived I met up with my good friend R.B and to greet each other we kissed, she didn't seem phased by this at all. All the way through the lesson we kept kissing, getting more and more passionate every time. Luckily the lesson ended before it went too far, but so did the dream

Fragment: Castle

I actually got bits of a dream.

I recall I was cleaning out the front seat of a mini van, and as i was taking tons of shit out of the front seat, some asshole just walks around me and pops up into the seat, to which I asked him "you just going to sit there after I cleaned it all out?", I think he just said yep or nodded, something simple, so i just decided to not bother and just sit in the mid seat.

It started pissin me off as the vehicle started to move, so at a few seconds before it got any speed, i said fuck it again, pop the door open, and hopped out, chucking dr.pepper over the roof of the vehicle, having it land/pour down the front windshield of the passenger. Its almost like the car was taking a tour.... I forgot about the people inside.... and it just continued to move on, by my old neighborhoods.

I recall going through some classes, pretty much just leaving and ignoring said by the teacher. I wasn't supposed to be there in the first place, which is what i'd planned to say if i were stopped.

I got an interesting look around me..... everything was.... assembled wierdly..... just how you go from being outside to inside.... to beign in a building. Its likely it just seemed weird and i was just popping around a bit.

The people in my dream weren't shadowy at all, when I saw them, they look detailed like they are in real life.

I mostly walked around these rooms n places.... at least from what I can remember.... glad I can recall what i can :/

In many of my past dreams, especially the ones I take personal meaning from and learn from, there is usually a guiding, protective, or teaching figure watching over me. For some reason, this person always manifests himself as a big black guy haha.

I had a lucid dream this morning where I asked the dream for some guidance on a difficult situation I have been going through. Immediately a door opened in front of me. I walked through and saw a group of people. A tall older black man was among them. I walked up to him and asked if he was my guide. He nodded. I grew excited. I then asked for his name. He said, "Legend." I immediately felt the power behind the name, though it also reminded me of Will Smith from the movie "I am Legend." I was half in awe and half amused.
He then told me to follow him. I did. We sat down with a group of people eating the most delicious looking maccarroni and cheese I've ever seen. The whole time we were sitting there he kept making me laugh. He would make funny faces at me with mac and cheese all over his face, and I was laughing at it like I was a little kid. I felt like a little kid meeting his long lost father, and my dad in real life felt like more of a friend than a father compared to this figure. I remember him saying, "I love you," much like a father would to his kid...I said, "I love you too." The love emotion was overwhelming. I was crying for joy and laughing at the same time. It was absolute bliss.
...and then a text message woke me up haha.

In his own way, I believe the experience itself was the solution to my problem that I had inquired about in the first place. My guide was showing me to laugh and be joyful, rather than stress over my "problems."

DreamLucidAwake

I used my daydream awareness technique again before bed. I didn't feel like daydreaming about anything in particular. I just wanted to focus on the idea of becoming lucid.

Lucid Fragment

I was in Loudonville standing behind my grandmother's house. I'm not sure but I think I was Claire or seeing things through her eyes in this dream. I was trying to hide from an army of little kids who wanted to eat me. They found me and they charged at me. I tried shooting them with an LMG I had been carrying, but it was out of ammo. So I picked up a gold sledge hammer leaning against the house. I swung it around in a circle hitting all of the kids around me. It was quite comical until I woke up.

Tooth Ache

This dream started out with me in my grandmother's house (Mansfield). It was a flase awakening and I was lying in the bedroom. I got up and put my clothes on for the day. I walked towards the kitchen to get some breakfast. I got a really strange feeling in my one tooth though as I walked to the kitchen. It then started hurting really bad. I poked it and felt it with my tounge. It hurt even more and tasted like bood, so I figured it was about to fall out. I started panicking because I don't think you're supposed to lose adult teeth. I poked at it with my finger and really knocked it lose. My mouth suddenly started to fill with blood. I ran into the bathroom and spit it out into the toilet. I started questioning why I had a bad tooth and how I could fix it. I became lucid after remembering that I had a similar dream a few days ago.

I still wasn't sure how I was going to fix my tooth. After spitting more blood out I decided to call out to my sister for help.

"Miki...Miki...Miki..." I moaned holding my head over the toilet.

I didn't get any response from her. It seemed like she just decided to leave. So I decided to rely on a dream guide.

"Claire!" I shouted to bring her to me.
"What?" She said walking into the bathroom.
I turned around to face her and said, "Look at this tooth ache!"
"So?" She said thinking it was normal.
I then spat out more blood onto the floor and yelled, "This isn't normal! Fix it!"
"Alright, follow me." She said.

I followed her outside of the house. Even though I had just woken up, it was oddly night time. We walked across the street into a field. We were walking towards a huge statue. I think it was the head of the Statue of Liberty half burried in the ground. I then stopped walking and thought about my real life tooth. I thought the tooth pain in my dream could be related to my real life tooth. If so then it would be a good idea to wake up and check on it. I grabbed the fabric of my dream with my hand (if that makes sense) and started pulling on it. I pulled and twisted it until it ripped open. I let myself fall into the void and woke up.

When I woke up my tooth was completely fine. That made me a little upset that I woke up for no reason. I got up to get a class of water and then sat there for a while using my daydream technique.

Rope Swinging

Kind of forgot some of this dream because I put off writing it. I was standing on a platform built around the top of a very tall tree. I tried to see how far from the bottom I was, but there was only a thick fog below me. I was standing there with my cat. My cat looked as if he was about to jump off of the platform.

"No kitty! No kitty! No kitty!" I yelled.

He jumped off and I looked down to see had jumped to another platform. As high as it was, it looked like it should have killed him. I became lucid after thinking about how the fall should have killed him. I saw ropes hanging from the tree branches and decided to play with those. I ran foward, grabbed a rope, and swung towards another platform. To reach the next platform I had to curve around the tree with the rope. Oddly when I did this I had a quick gust of hot air blow at me for a few seconds. After I landed on the next platform there were no others to swing to. I ran and swung on the last rope anways. After I let go of the rope I fell far through the fog until I hit the ground. I did a roll when I landed so I wouldn't break my legs or anything. More happened after this, but I forgot it.

Improved Teleportation

I can't remember the moment I became lucid. I was standing in my grandmother's living room (Mansfield) in the middle of the night. Oddly everyone us up and walking around even though it was the middle of the night. I decided I would try teleporting somewhere. I don't like walking around the dream world at night or places that seem very normal to me. I had a little bit of a new idea on how I would teleport this time.

I swiped my hand down to create a rift in the wall above the couch. I jumped off the couch and dived into the portal. I fell and crashed into the void like I was expecting. Now that I was in the void and the previous dream scene was erased, it would be easier for me to teleport to a new one. I swung my arms out in a tearing motion to rip a hole in the void while thinking of a place full of snow. A rift opened up and I could see a bunch of snow through it. I stepped through the portal and I was in the middle of a forest covered in snow and ice. I also saw Chris just standing there watching the snow. The place was amazing, but it felt too cold there and I wanted to leave. I waved goodbye to Chris and walked back through the portal into the void.

I did the same thing as before when I was in the void, except I thought about the summer and the beach. I saw sand, water, and the sun materialize as I opened the portal. When the image was complete I walked through the portal. Unfortunately the exit portal was a little high up in the air and I fell out of it. I hit the ground pretty hard, but I at least landed on sand. After groaning in pain and complaining to myself I got up and looked at my surroundings. I was on a beautiful island with a bunch of trees and flowers behind me. I looked back to the beach and saw someone just lying there on the beach. As I walked towards her I realized she was Claire. I wanted to ask her a few questions, but she was sleeping. I poked her belly a few times to try to wake here up. I then decided that waking her up would be like waking an angry bear. I sat next to her and waited for her to wake up, but she never did. I looked around a little bit and admired this new world. One odd thing I saw though was the Statue of Liberty's head burried in the ground again. The dream faded away as I waited.

In a Painting

It was a false awakening and I was actually in my own room for once. I was packing my bags for yet another road trip. As I was packing I saw a picture on my wall. It was a picture of the Statue of Liberty. I walked over to it and stared at it for a moment. I don't have a picture of the Statue of Liberty on my wall. I became lucid after realizing that the statue was in the previous dreams. It meant that this one was likely a dream too.

For some reason I felt like I should go into the painting. I pushed my hand through the picture. It looked and felt like I had stuck my hand into a bucket of water. After pushing my whole arm into it, I was sucked into the painting. Next thing I know, I'm falling high above the buildings of New York City. I then felt an energy above me and turned towards the sky. Two seperate portals had opened in the sky. Out of one fell Chris, and out of the other fell Claire.

"What the hell are you guys doing?!" I asked them.
"Trying to save you!" Chris said.
"You're doing a pretty bad job at it!" I yelled at him.
"There wasn't much time to plan!" he yelled back.
"Shut up and morph into a dragon already!" Claire yelled.

I transformed into a full dragon real easy and spread out my wings. Claire grabbed onto my back and I grabbed Chris with my four legs. I was about to crash into a skyscraper, but Claire grabbed my horns and steered me to the right. I was about to hit another building, so she steered me to the left just barely missing two buildings. I nearly lost my grip of Chris and was barely holding onto him anymore.

"You guys are too heavy" I yelled.

Claire got mad at me and purposely steered me into the side of a building. That was a painful hit on the head.

I growled at her and asked, "What the hell was that for?"
"Watch what you say." Claire said.
"This too much weight for me to carry!" I yelled back.
"Maybe you just need to build some muscle" She said.
"Look out!" Chris yelled.

I looked back in front of me and saw the Statue of Liberty. I crashed into the crown thingy on it and gripped it with my claws. I grabbed Chris with my tail and and Claire held onto my shoulders. After some struggling I finally pulled all of us up. All of that craziness destabilized my dream and I woke up like 5 seconds later.

End

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Had extremely long and weird dreams last night, I can't be bothered to write them down really. Did a small WBTB and after that it started with a LD in which I was going to have sex, this led to the "unfaithful schema" being active and it all turned into a nightmare when I lost lucidity.

23.30: Sleep

Spoiler for 18+:

11.00: Getting down and dirty MILD
I'm with a latina girl and I intend to have some sex. I go down on her and notice a vein going from her belly down to her thigh. "What a cute vein" I say. She touches it. "This? It's a chakra vein, makes me able to control my chakra." I start pleasuring her with my tongue while she's rocking her body back and forth. I time it and she moans in pleasure.

The dream slips from me and I end up in SP. I lie still and visualize a scene in which I'm having sex with the girl. I almost end up in a dream before I black out.

I wake up in a bed next to a girl. I know I'm on a boat cruise. I position myself ontop of the girl who just woke up. I slowly start to realise what I've done last night. I drank myself stupid and ended up having sex with this girl, cheating on Monica. I get up and get out of there. I almost throw up from the anxiety. 'Fuck fuck fuck! What the hell have I done?!'

11.00: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 12½ hours

Supplements: Galantamine + Choline at WBTB.

That's it! Well, on G+C you're in for an extremely long dreaming period. That can be good or bad, unlucky me this time the unfaithful schema took like an hour to go away, it stayed there for a few dreams.

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

Last nights dream fragment

All I can remember is that I wore my 7 year olds pyjamas, they fit me perfectly and then I think "what's J going to wear for bed now"

I'm in an apartment quite high up. I look out of the window and I see a planet go past, it's in the sky and I panick. I go outside and there are loads of people looking up into the sky and they are just watching, I stand still for a moment and watch too. I see more planets come into our atmosphere, they come one at a time about every 5 minutes. All the planets look different, we all realise something is quite wrong about this and then the last planet comes. They now all circle earths atmosphere and we can see them all. I hear a man shout "the 12 moons have now come to a stand" I now think "ohh shit" and I now begin to run...I wonder where I can hide so I don't die but I can't think of anywhere!!!

My dreams from this night were kind of hazy, I went to bed mildly hungover and still have a bit of a headache. -.- But I did manage to get something down.

#1 - New Emoticons [Non-Lucid]

I was talking to FancyRat, who had apparently just become rich and famous for some reason I can't remember, with Facebook messages but still using DV emoticons. There were a lot of really strange emoticons on the list and I was distressed because they had removed the panic one. But I did find one that whenever you looked at it it made your screen get sucked through some crazy psychedelic tunnel with dragons flying around. Meanwhile, I was at a restaurant with my dad (I had my laptop with me) and we had some snooty butler guy as our waiter, and he asks if we want an appetizer or anything and my dad starts telling him about how we HATE appetizers so we never get any and how could he even ask that... to which I'm just like what the hell? Let's at least get some chips or something. >.> After that I woke up.

#2 - Mario And Yoshi [Non-Lucid]

It starts out with me watching K play a Mario game where there was a side story which was like a copy of Luigi's Mansion, so I was telling him how to get to that. Skip forward, I go back to high school for some reason to play an online Yoshi game with D in the lunch area and and up seeing a bunch of annoying people but also this guy E who was a grade below me and pretty fun to hang out with. I don't remember much about the game, except that nothing we were trying to do was working correctly but we kept unlocking a bunch of random Yoshi colors anyway. After that I get complemented on my game skills by Dianeva who's in a chat room and logged into the game in a way that just lets you watch other people play. That's it for that.

2/13/2012
I run into my ex-girlfriend. She is walking so fast I have a hard time keeping up. I ask if she is avoiding me. She says yes. I say one more thing and then leave her alone.

A series of rooms. In each one, there is a challenge involving fighting (or possibly fishing) before the next door will open. More than one room has a stream with eels. A lot of these rooms are quite large and have natural type features- streams, animals, trees, plants, etc. The room I'm in now has giants. The lights go out. Fighting in the dark is difficult and scary.

I journaled in my dreams again, so I missed writing down the other part of my dream because I thought I'd already written it. I've forgotten it now. I hate when that happens.

Cay's Dreams

Dream 1
The lower end of my county, the more "rural" of the two, was now filled with lavish mansions. My cousin, a teacher and his wife, a bank teller had somehow moved into one of these. They only had enough furniture to fill the front few rooms. I slipped out at one point to explore a dilapidated turn-of-the-century hotel which exists nearby in real life. I ended up accidentally causing a cave-in somehow.

Dream 2 was a nightmare and rather personal.

Dream 3 gets +5 awesome points for cohesiveness and clarity, but I didn't get lucid.

It started with a limousine depositing myself, my two sisters and Azra outside of what seemed like a hotel, with black glass and a gilded awning. It was nasty out, and a flash of lightning and sudden downpour hurried us inside. The lobby was warm and well-lit, with a bubbling fountain and a black marble-topped desk from behind which a pretty young receptionist called out this greeting: "Reo! So glad to see you back!" Reo is a name a lot of dream characters have taken to calling me. I didn't recognize it, though, and I definitely hadn't been here before, so I was quite perplexed as I was ushered to a podium bearing a sign-in sheet and instructed to sigh for "Reo, party of four". An elevator door opened to the right of the podium and we filed in next to a bearded young operator in a stiff beige uniform. "Going up," he murmered in a thick accent as he pulled the lever.
The doors opened on a damp concrete hallway with a few flickering lights, one of which illuminated a metallic door at the end. A girl stood up out of a folding chair to guide us further. She wore a tight charcoal-colored jumpsuit with red accents. She had a round face, soft features and lots of curly flaxen hair. Her name was Crystal. Soon, we were all outfitted in similar jumpsuits and given what seemed to be Star Trek TOS phasers in black.
Behind the door we met the sixth member of our party, an android with a long, segmented tail and catlike face which spoke in an annoying series of "nya" sounds that Crystal could somehow understand.
It turned out to be a similar concept as my "Sacred Games" dream, where each stage is either a combat situation or a puzzle. The Sacred Games was fantasy-oriented, and this was futuristic, but that was about the only difference. We'd only gone through two stages, one a confrontation with those creepy soldier bots from Portal ("...Are you still there?") and the other a maze within which was a key to the exit, when I woke up.

2/12/2012
I'm going to my friend's house. I have a small flat box containing a piece of furniture that I bought for myself, but it was my friend's birthday recently, and I feel guilty about not getting him a present. I realize he would like this furniture, so I give it to him. See, their old comfy chair broke, and the furniture I got is a recliner. It's kind of cheap though. I'm worried it won't be sturdy. It turns out to be a very comfy, squashy blue recliner, and my friend likes it. We rearrange the furniture to make room for it.

I'm playing Minecraft with a friend. We're at the surface, and there is a gap leading down into a cave. We put ladders and torches on the edges (it's a vertical drop down into the cave). We also put burning rope (it's a sweet new light source). I want to play with this burning rope stuff because it's new. I walk onto the hole with the ladder, so I'll drop slowly down, and then I hang onto the burning rope by pressing shift. I hang from the rope for a few moments, but then I lose my grip and fall into the cave below.

There are a lot of bookshelves here. We quickly place torches throughout the room. I go down a tunnel to explore alone. I am attacked by skeletons. I defeat them with some difficulty. I realize my health is extremely low. More skeletons attack. I fight cautiously, retreating. I make it back to the main room with the bookshelves, but the skeleton is still on my tail. I weave in and out of the bookshelves, now running more than fighting. The skeleton charges at me. I can't run fast enough. I die. I respawn nearby and hurry back to collect my stuff.

I'm riding the trains, but I end up somewhere I didn't want to be. I get on the train going back the other way and go back a station.

I have a mighty fine hat. It's brown with a wide brim and has a string under my chin so I can slide it back and it will rest on my back. I somehow know that Minecraft mechanics are (still) in place, but not everything is cubes. These people are building a submarine with shopping carts and chairs. They start by digging out a few cubes of dirt, and putting some lava in the hole. Now they're building the craft on top of that. They're going to add on a 'candy chair', so I'll have a place to sit. Apparently it's really cute. I'm a little apprehensive of something that cute- it might end up being pink and kiddy and horrible. I wonder how we are going to be able to breathe underwater in this contraption, but I figure it must just take advantage of some sort of glitch.

I'm putting my backpack in one of the spaces for luggage at the back of this 'submarine'. My backpack is pretty full, but it's squishy, too. It takes a bit of fiddling to get my backpack in the luggage space, but I manage it. We've started moving while I was busy with the luggage. I'm stuck hanging onto the back instead of having an actual seat. A woman and the kid are sitting in the shopping cart shaped main area of the 'sub'. Another woman is hanging off the side and steering. There's an extra chair hanging off the other side that unbalances the craft a little.

We're moving at high speed over land and little ponds. Presumably we are going to go underwater when we reach the river. I'm looking forward to seeing how it works (although I'm a little afraid the answer will be 'it doesnt'). But I wake up before we reach the river. I'm so disappointed we didn't get to go underwater.

I had a dream were I was in New York city, At time square and I was flying, The world was ending and building were collapsing, And I remember wanting Time Square to be destroyed. Rocks or chickens were falling from the sky and I think a song in the back ground said "It's raining men" I wish I wrote down the dream when I woke up, But I didn't Because I didn't have enough battery life on my iPod, And I was being lazy.

Well I only had enough battery life for listening to music for a half hour.

I will be more committed next time ^_^

2/11/2012
I wrote down my dream in detail and then a while after I woke up I realized that my dream journal was completely blank. Now I can't remember anything about my dream because I didn't write it down or mentally review it on waking because I thought I'd already done so. I hate when this happens. I'd have so many easy lucids if I could just remember to RC every time I write in my dream journal.

2/17/2012

I was on a baseball team it seems like. I climbed on one of the huge, tall fences that are behind the batting plate on a baseball field. I climbed up and down it multiple times with only my arms trying to build upper body strength I guess.
