Woke up in the middle of the night with this vivid dream, but was too tired/lazy to do anything about writing it down, so here is the fragmented dream.
___
Getting in the car, we are being forced to drive to internment camps, even though there arn't any armed guards requiring us to go

at a mall, lots of people, we are at a stop for some reason.

in the car again, almost there, vague impressions of the buildings of the internment camps in the distance, but my father is trying to kill a spider, he says the name, it doesn't sound menicing (something like cottensheep) but I instantly know that it is incredibly venimous. he misses it, and it jumps from the winshield to my seatbelt. I'm looking right at it, I see into it's black eyes, I see the hairs on its body, and I close my eyes, hoping it won't jump on my face as it rears up to jump. I feel it land in my hair and crawl in, I feel it as I wake up and feel my bed, but I still feel it after a few minutes of being awake. I slowly reach up to the spot where I still feel it, but nothing is there. I try to get myself to write the dream down, but I'm too lazy and fall back asleep.
__

there are these small, claylike creatures that you can train to do anything if you have the patience. they live in a large enclosure, as big as a small house I try to train them to navigate a pit of spikes without bumping into any of the spikes, they arn't very good at it at first, but after getting poked a few times, they start navigating it fairly well.

I managed to fall asleep again, probably around 9, and my kids woke up around 10:30. It was enough sleep to have a couple dream fragments and leave me feeling even more tired than when I went back to sleep, if that makes any sense. Here goes:

Dream One (Fragment): I'm at a Japanese shrine. Either the shrines name was Mikage, or the character named Mikage from the Manga I was reading when I was trying to fall asleep earlier was in it. I'm pretty sure it was the character Mikage, because I remember someone with white hair being in the dream though I don't remember the roles either of us played.

Dream Two (Fragment): I was watching a portly yet muscular bearded man was singing country music in a bar.

Dream Three (Fragment): Also set in a Japanese style building. There was a girl and a guy, they were in older more traditional Japanese clothing. The girl wanted the guy to stay with her, she loves hm and didn't want him to go. He seemed a bit cold, he told her he wouldn't stay and that she needed to get off him (she was holding onto his shirt trying to pull him back inside) Once he was outside into the darkness however he seemed very sad to leave her, and he didn't go home as he claimed he was going. Instead, he climbed a tree nearby where he could watch her house and protect her. Then my view shifted to inside the house, where the girl was crying on the floor. Suddenly there was a commotion outside, and my view switches back to the guy, and he's in a fight with something. He knocks whatever(whoever?) it is out cold, and sends them flying through the front door of the girls house. Then he quickly runs off before she can see who saved her. I hear someone say, "The princess is staying in that house." as I was woken up.

Well, the Manga I read at least incubated good dreams even if it didn't serve the intended purpose of quieting my mind and putting me to sleep, lol. I was reading Kamisama Kiss is anyone was wondering. I was hoping shojo manga would give me happy romantic dreams. The last dream sort of hits that mark, except it was in third person

I had 3 dreams I could remember. All are a bit fuzzy so lets start with the most rememberable and work are way down.

My memory starts with me in Europe on my way to a concert. I'm stepping into a van through the front passenger door and I look into the back of the van. Inside is a U shaped couch with a few people sitting about. I notice 3 people but I think there were 1 or 2 more. One of them offers me a "piece" and I gladly except thinking him for the generous gift. I take a hit and pass it on and take a seat in the back of this van. My already incontinent reasoning for this whole adventure practically crumbles at this point. Being high does that though. I break in time and I find myself talking to my friend James. I'm not sure if I have him on the phone or what but I'm trying to figure out were I am and were I'm going. That's about all I cant remember form this one. Not to interesting but I enjoyed it because for once there was some talking in my dream.

Next up I remember a fight. The moments leading up to it are a bit hard to remember. I think I was dreaming of Peter from the show Heroes. Then I was him. Then I guess I was me. Stuff like this happens in my dreams a lot. Anyway, Peter/Me is upset with this guy who is our friend. Who ever he is, he has a sort of criminal look to him and so does his fancy condo. We get into it and I end up stabbing him, lightly. Don't want to kill my friend but I need to make my point. After this I end up finding my self on the floor with a swift kick to my neck/back. I lay there knowing that for stabbing this guy I have let him kick my ass. It seems fair in my dream. This is when he pull out a gun. This is not good. He's angrier than I would like for him to be pointing a gun at me. He starts waving the gun at me. Going from my head to a limb. I close my eyes and bang. I don't know if I'm shot or not but I'm not dead. I curse like a mopho who thinks has been shot however. This just leaves my friend a little annoyed who then want me up and to stop my bitching. And that's were that one ends. Pretty fuzzy but it was cool to actually hurt my opponent, normally there just indestructible in my dreams. Though it was sort of Peter who did the stabbing, I kinda took control for the ass wooping.

Last up I had my first WILD
It started with me just thinking about walking. The idea just sorta was in my head at the time. I started to concentrate a little and try to imagine more of the experience. Sure enough, my limbs start to become visible, then surroundings start to form and then I was in my house. My dream wasn't stable at all though and it breaks down in only a few moments. Its a shame it ended as soon as it started but since I've done it once I'm sure I can do it again now.

By the way, I used the SSLID method for this night. http://www.dreamviews.com/f12/senses...-ssild-129734/

I'm in some sort of school. Not my own school, it's a primary I think, and I'm my little brother and a bunch of his friends in one of the classrooms. We're waiting for something. I look out of a little window in the wall and we're surrounded by nature of some sort.

Then I'm in a small tuck shop of some sort. There's a man behind the counter who kind of looks like the guy on Cake Boss, that Italian American dude who speaks really loudly and makes cakes.
I look around a bit and I see rows of sandwiches and baguettes. The guy implies I should hurry because he's closing soon. I pick out a baguette which has a picture of penne/farfalle with red sauce on the packet thing. This is strange, but I go along with it.

I pay the guy, and he starts telling me I should tell people about his shop, which is called Mirabella or something which sounds close to that. Then I know that the valley in which the school is located, in the last years of the 18th Century (I live in Malta, which Napoleon occupied for two years from 1798-1800) some workers were building something which he didn't like, and Napoleon starting pleading desperately with them to stop (I see a vision of a list, with pleading words Napoleon used and gentlemanly words he didn't use while pleading, a woman's voice narrates). I'm still in the shop and as he narrates, I lean on the counter and the Cake Boss' little daughter is next to him. I pull away and everything melts.

I wake up.

(For the record, this dream was so deeply strange and random I am disappointed I didn't become lucid)

The Black SUV - Monday 4/16/12

I dreamt that I went to go visit my mother. My sister and our cousin were there. My sister and I got into a fight over something silly. When it was time to go, I walked out the front door and saw my sister standing on the porch sweeping. She was trying to get a good look at my new black SUV. I don't have a new black SUV in real life. I told her "you know you're full of shit, right? *with a smile*" I got into my new ride, pulled out of the yard, and drove down the road. I called out to my dad as I drove by one of the fields he was in. End.

Back to sleep. I had another dream that I was driving this black SUV down a highway. End.

Back to sleep. I saw the silhouette of a UFO landing behind and between the silhouettes of two mountains. The sky was orange and it looked as though the sun was about to set. The sun was a brilliant illuminating yellow-orange color. It was beautiful.

Map - Tuesday 4/17/12

I dreamt that my two brothers and I were in a house I didn't recognize. My big bro was talking about going to our deceased grandmother's house once a day to check the trash can... He and my little bro were to take turns doing this once a day... I told him "wouldn't it be better to just set up a camera so you'll know when the trash can is full?" Then we were about to go somewhere so I set up a camera above the front door before we left. End.

Back to sleep. I dreamt I was in a computer room with some other guys. They were hackers or something. I went into the next room. Then my perspective changed to first person and I was looking at a map with several countries. One of the countries was highlighted and I was able to move this cursor freely. I chose a country and then it was as if I descended upon it. It got closer and closer to me. Then I landed on one leg and looked to my right. I had landed right beside a girl in a two-piece bikini who was doing a handstand with one arm while her other arm was behind her back. She was well equipped. As I awoke, I heard a loud thump. As if something hit the floor really hard.

I woke up enough to hit the snooze button, then fell back to sleep while thinking of being bulletproof. I went right into a dream where I was imagining my clothes were bulletproof. Temporarily I went into a 3rd person view and it was like a test scenario where 3 bullets hitting my shirt could not penetrate it. It seemed like my clothes would be effective if I happend to get shot by someone. As I enter first person view, I notice that the dream scenery is a bank setting. The natural instinct is to rob the place of course, why else would I be here? There are several tellers behind their bullet proof glass. I head to the nearest one. He asks "can I help you?" I say "shut up and give me all the money. And don't hit the button." The idiots eyes go wide and he is just standing there just pressing the button, I could tell. He thinks he is safe behind there. Jumping up, I kick the pane of bullet proof glass out of its moorings. It flies over his head and hits the wall behind him. It missed him, so I ended up choking him while telling the next teller who was a woman to not be stupid and just get the money out. She just stands there, while pressing the alarm. Just keep pressing the alarm, it doesn't really matter, I'm thinking. I'd have a few minutes to get ready for any cops who showed up to shoot at me. At this point I'm unarmed, but I start out by imagining I'm wearing a tool belt. Reaching down I grab a hammer from the right side of the belt, and take out the other 2 tellers with it.

As I was heading into the back room where the vault was, mummys start appearing. Thinking nothing of it, I start killing them with my hammer. There was about 10 dead mummys before I awoke. There seemed to be an unending supply of them, for as I killed one, another would come through the door.

I usually sleep from around 1 am until about 10:00 am - noon... that's accounting for the hour or so it usually takes me to go to sleep (bed time is around 11:30) Last night, I looked at the clock last around 1:30... and I woke up this morning at 6 when my husband got up for work and haven't been able to get back to sleep since. My brain is just too busy. I tried listening to music, reading manga, looking back through the physical dream journal I kept last year and now I'm going to try and type up the two short dream fragments I had and then go back to bed to see if it's enough to make me sleepy. If I can't get back to sleep in the next hour though I'm SOL because the kids wake up between ten and noon and I have to get up with them.

Dream One (Fragment): A rehash of the day. I can recall a bunch of flashing pictures, and that's about it. The pictures were things from yesterday, avatars I saw on this web site, the stores I went to, the plants I planted yesterday, etc. Really boring, lol.

Dream Two: I was on the porch of a trailer I lived in with my husband before we got married. I was planting a plant in a terracotta pot with GoldenLight's avatar. DreamProfessor's avatar was standing beside us, and I got the feeling we were planting the plant for DreamProfessor. Another obvious rehash, I spent the day yesterday tracking down and replanting strawberry and tomato plants, and when I got home that evening I read through several of GL and DP's dream journals, lol.

And that is it, lol. If I still can't sleep, I'm going to type up a dream I had last year that was really awesome. I had sort of stashed it away in the back of my mind, but since I couldn't sleep and went through my old dream journal I found it and thought, "that one's definitely an important dream for me" and one I think I'd like to practice when I'm lucid sometime.

5-5-11, Important dreams from the past: A Lesson in Auras? - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views Done

It was hazy this morning, the fine details are just out of reach.

The general idea was the story of a young autistic woman who fell in love. Her father refused to believe that she was capable of thinking for herself ((all too common, unfortunately)), and somehow managed to get her fiance arrested and charged for rape.

I remembered her rocking on a couch and saying his name (Kevin, I think. and Mc--something. McDermott, maybe?). And her father had started some kind of organization teaching people that they shouldn't look at autistics as being normal people, and part of Kevin's sentence was to assist him in this.

All of that really made me want to shoot the dad in the face. Pity I didn't become lucid so I could at least punch him.

I'm in jail, but I'm innocent. The building is one story and massive; cells are on each side of the wide hallway, and I can't see the end of them. They're the old fashioned cells that are made of all bars with no actual walls. I'm alone in the cell. A guard and one of my friends are standing outside the cell.

My friend wants to pass me some food. He comes close to the door to try to slide something in, but when he gets too close, a fine mesh screen appears out of nowhere to completely block the door.

My friend is very concerned about my safety. Somehow, he can't talk directly to me, but has to talk through the guard. He doesn't want to say anything plainly, since his message would be analyzed; so he gives a verse reference - something in 1 Corinthians 29 [he specified a verse, but I don't remember it]. The guard is suspicious of the "coded message" and refuses to pass it. The guard then "suggests" that my friend walk with him; my friend becomes even more afraid for my safety, that they'll do something to me while he's gone.

---

I'm staying in a house with a lot of people [though I never actually see most of them]. The house is huge and has many bedrooms and bathrooms. Somehow, I end up using a bathroom that's not "mine." Someone is calling to me through the door; they think I'm the person who's supposed to be using the bathroom, and they're reminding "me" to take "my" pills. I look down and see that there's a large bowl near the toilet filled with translucent pills. I don't call back, since it would give me away and show that I was in the wrong bathroom.

Now I'm back in the hallway. I took a shower in the bathroom, but since it wasn't my bathroom, I didn't have my towel. Now I'm wet and naked and running to my own bathroom to get dressed. Someone else sees me; now I have a towel wrapped around me.

Now I'm in another room. I'm meeting with people about one of my projects at work, explaining what it does, how I made it, and what state it's in. First, I explain to a man. Next, I explain to a woman - the man's boss. Later, in the hallway, I start to explain to a third man (he's Asian), but it's lunch time, so we take a break.

Now I'm at Whole Foods. I'm talking about how you can tell a lot about a grocery store by looking at its shopping carts. The carts here are very small and only have two shelves, so it's clear that the store is high end and doesn't expect you to buy very much at once.

---

We're at some kind of church function. My wife has advised me to wear my black shirt and pants along with a tie (don't remember which one). I'm still outside with my car. I want to say hi to Chris, but he's inside doing something. I'm glad I took my wife's suggestion to wear black.

---

We're on the patio outside someone's house. There's a nice pool here. My parents are there. I'm talking with Mom about their pool, and she's describing how they dug a channel from the upper pool to the lower pool to install a salt water filtration system because they didn't want to use chlorine. I'm surprised at the cost, but she said they did all the labor themselves so it wasn't too bad. As she's talking, I visualize a dirt channel going from a small pool to a larger pool.

I'm biking around a city with a friend. We're biking through a parking lot for a strip shopping center.

Now we're on a road, heading towards a huge intersection, going pretty fast. As we get close to it, I glance at the crosswalk indicator - it's just counting down to 0. The moment it hits 0, the light turns yellow. We're close enough that we can't stop - we have to go through. Right after we enter the intersection, the light turns red. I hope no one is around to see us, but I see that there's a police car in the turn lane to our left.

Now we're on the side of the road, stopped on a little grassy spot. We hear a siren behind us - it's a bike cop coming after us for running a red light. I want to try to explain that I was in the intersection and my friend was past the intersection before the light turned red, but the cop isn't in a good mood, and I want to wait for the right moment. He tells us that we'll need to take a driving course.

Now we're in a van with the cop - he's driving. He's looking for food that's right for the test. We pull up by a stand by the side of the road that's selling something, but it's not right. Then, someone else in the back of the van offers pizza.

---

I'm in a conference room with some people. One of the people is asking for an older version of some Microsoft software. It's freely available, but he can only find the Windows 7 version, not the XP version that he needs. Someone else at the table gets mad at him - they had to go through the trouble of contracting with Microsoft to get the old version, so this guy should have to as well.

---

I'm in a house with some people.

---

I'm with a small group of people walking into the atrium of a shopping mall - it's a huge space. Displays are set up here and there; we pass near one of them that's for a video game. D tells me I should save up for it and buy it.

Uni (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm sitting in a lecture university, studying Psychology.. or maybe physics.The man who is running the lecture is actually the vice-principal of my high school. He's short and actually encourages us to make jockey jokes, but quite a tight-ass if you break any rules what-so-ever. The room is somewhat dully lit but really relaxing.
As I decide I should start taking down some notes, I lean over to where I placed my bag down to grab my pens and books.. it's a seat or two away. The lecturer stops what the whole class just to tell me that this isn't the right time to do whatever I am i'm doing.. what? Wait, so he doesn't want me to take notes? I thought university teachers didn't care what you done in lectures unless you start to distract other people.
Later, i'm sitting with my laptop searching the web when the lecturer decides to call me out again. "If I turn off the internet, do you think you'll start paying attention?" He says to me. I think about it and consider that I could tether my phone to my laptop as a wi-fi hot-spot.
"Probably not," I reply honestly.
The class continues and some time later, he asks a question about how an electronical plug.. how it's illustration is male.. the logic made sense at the time of the dream so I was confident with my answer. Looking for brownie points seeing as I had already been called out twice, I answer the question. [wait.. but this is supposed to be a Psychology class!]
The lecture finishes and everyone goes to their next class or have their break.. I wonder off to buy a drink and then realise I have absolutely no clue where my next class is. I consider calling my girlfriend as she's a year above me to ask my way around but I didn't want to bother her - then I consider calling Erii as she's in my Psychology class awell, but knowing how tightass this teacher is, i'd probably get her into trouble..
I end up running around looking for someone I know, but I don't find anyone..

I was back at secondary school and found myself worrying that I knew absolutely nothing for upcoming exams. I was back in my old form room, with my old form tutor and several class mates. At one point a photo was taken of me with a somewhat odd looking camera as if the dream character's were aware of this strange "reunion" and wanted a record for posterity.

I do have university exams coming up in a few weeks and anxiety dreams such as this are quite common for me around exam season! Hopefully, I will be able to recognise this as a dream sign when it occurs again!

Wow... too intense!
I fell asleep at, I don't know, 1-2AM and I'm now awake at 6AM because of the dreams.
The last one was the most freagin emotional dream I've had in a very long time.

I don't remember how it started, but I was in some house and my p-doc was there. We were talking about how I would react to certain situations. I had an female infant with me and she was the love of my life.
At some point, my p-doc opens the door and 2 women are on the other side. He looked at me sadly and then just walked away while the women came inside.
One of them was a childhood best friend. The other was just a random DC. The best friend was married to my ex-husband and she coming to take my daughter.
I threw a MAJOR fit. I told them that the child (they insisted on calling Gertrude wth lol) was in NO way related to them and they couldn't have her. They tried reasoning with me and asked if my ex wasn't considered family. I shouted "NO!" but then added, "Not where this child is concerned. It's not his!"
Ahhh, no. There was no random DC, it was my mother.

Anyhow... I was shouting and crying and I asked why he couldn't take one of HIS children . It was just for a summer visitation, I don't know why I was freaking out so badly regarding the new baby.
They said those children didn't need them and that they were basically too old. I blurted out my sons secret that he thinks he's transgendered; that he has all sorts of conflicting emotions going on and could really use them,
But no, they insisted on taking my infant from me. I screamed that they couldn't. I asked what legal grounds they had. Then they handed me a piece of paper. It said we had joint custody.
I should have then realized it was a dream, because as I looked at the signature page of the document, the signature changed size and color and I was actually mesmerized by it lol

I crumpled to the ground, asking how such a thing could be possible. Then I remembered that my hubby could help me fight it. We could get a good lawyer. But I felt utterly betrayed by my p-doc and that's when I woke.
I wasn't crying or anything, but wow!

Gonna go buy a Coke. I'll finish later.
But, my p-doc ruled my dreams last night.
The following are just random scenes or phrases to help me recall the dreams later. But my recall isn't that hot to begin with lol

p-doc, hubby, shopping, third wheel, carving across chest
flight, awesome landing, water, lost
strange building, fire on floor, big man
flirting younger p-doc, altercation with punks, kiss, save

I think that's it...

After a dry spell for pretty much exactly 2 weeks I finally had a lucid, and a pretty long and awesome one as well.

The dream starts with me standing on some balcony, suddenly I have a very strong strange feeling in my mouth and some of my teeth are lose, a moment later when I was looking into the mirror most of my teeth came crumbling out and I was stressed out wondering what the hell was going on. But I did an RC, I couldn't breathe, or so I thought but I kept checking as hard as I could and in fact I could breathe, so I got lucid and forget and ignored the stuff about my teeth immediately.
I remembered how I was breathing through my pinched nose last time while I was underwater (Icy pit) and I had the strong desire to repeat that, I closed my eyes shortly and something strange filled me, I opened them and thought and said "Water!" with a strange intonation and the whole room immediately started to fill up really fast in front of my eyes. It also was an borderless change to an completely different building since I changed the location itself, still underwater of course I've been swimming around for a while and then decided to go to the surface to try flying out which worked without problems. I've been flying around this building (it seemed to be slightly underground, there were a lot of things floating around, even a bag of whales), and decided to try summoning a Spytfire (Spaceship from the X3 games) but because somehow I didn't do it instinctively and strong enough I only summoned a very basic chassis, I worried about wether I’d recall the shape correctly. I decided to exit the building, the windows which were up top led outside into a city apparently in the middle of spring. Then there’s a small gap, something about a shard of glass and showering on the street removed my lucidity for a moment but I regained it pretty fast (though unfortunately at this point I already forgot about the things I wanted to do outside). I tried advanced flying into the sky (which looked beautiful) but somehow it didn't work properly, I could only get a few meters and started to grab and hold something invisible, as I pulled down the sheets a big puppet like thing revealed itself and I kinda think it was responsible for the fact I couldn't fly (it also had a name, something with John). I just took it apart piece by piece and made some of the DCs around hostile with that. But even though I still couldn't fly properly I was far away from getting myself catched by a few normal DCs, so I went around a bit to find another place to fly but woke up then.

I think the real reason for me being unable to fly at the end of the dream was that the dream wasn’t stable enough anymore, if just I wouldn’t have forgotten to stabilize. Still this dream once again broke my records in terms of detail and length for lucids.

So I have never kept a dream journal before. Hopefully this helps in some way or another.

I woke up at about nine this morning after falling asleep at about five am. Usually when I manage to stay up that late and only get in four hours of sleep I don't dream at all, or at least I don't recall the dream. Yet, that wasn't the case, as I had the usual nightmare.

Running naked down a windowless and door-less hallway, I knew something was chasing me even though I couldn't see it. I always get the distinct impression that it's male. I ran and ran though the maze like hall till a sound stopped me like usual. It sounded like flesh scraping or rubbing up against hard stone. I was lucid this time and tried to change the nightmare by giving myself clothes which didn't work. Usually after I try to change one thing in the dream my pursuer catches me but this time I was able to try three things. I tried giving myself clothes, I tried to give myself a weapon -focused on a ball bat as it seemed simplest- and then I tried just shifting the scene outside. None of them worked and I would up getting caught by No Eyes.

No Eyes is a pale white gender-less corpse that is all twisted and contorted. It has eyes, only hollow pits. No nose and a ragged slash for a mouth as well as crooked rotting teeth. It never speaks, only hisses its breath between its teeth. Once No Eyes catches me it is always the same. I become hypnotized as it stares at me with it eyeless pits and hisses. Suddenly more corpses like No Eyes break through the ground beneath me. They are just like No Eyes, but they are not as maggot white and are considerably more decayed. They then proceed to eat me alive while I hear a male voice laughing from somewhere. Right as I am about to die, I woke up this time instead of cycling through the same nightmare more times.

Pretty gruesome. I've yet to figure out anything that I can do while lucid to stop the dream without triggering the climax of the nightmare.
