    1. 2008, September xx: Recurring Cemetery in Dead Woods dream

      by , 04-30-2013 at 11:46 PM
      I've posted this one on the forums a bit already. I believe one of the reasons why it occurred is because I was playing Xbox Live a lot at the time and it was like I stuck my head in the sands/ashes of hell or something. Most of what I did at the time was play Xbox Live, I don't think I noticed the birds flying around outside much.

      The dream always started showing people, Often enough to have a large party, Arriving at a two-story house which was in a plain that had no grass or trees near it. It was cold outside and the ground was blue-ish in tint. There was a forest behind the house about 200 yards away. The house was nice and warm. (I also must note the interior resembled the interior of the James Bond homestead house in the new Skyfall movie.)

      People would leave the house and go into the woods. In the woods, The people would find a graveyard (Note I didn't say cemetery; This place was a grave place to be) And there would be this Fast, White, Freezing-Cold River running over parts of it including some of the grave markers.

      The river started from the left and was below the ground where the people would stand to see the graveyard. The river came down a slope and went in a U-turn away from a bank on the right, Back to the left as it went down a slope. I'm wondering why the graveyard wasn't completely submerged in the water; Why did the river go around some of the graves in a U-turn, Cutting them off? I don't recall a huge bank between the river and most of the graveyard preventing the water from flowing down the slope that the graveyard was on.

      I never saw anyone cross the river. Also, There was no path to this graveyard; The people always went through the woods to get to it. Once they saw this graveyard, In most occasions every person who saw it would die by turning into a splintered, Dead wood statue. I don't think even their clothes remained, They were just dead wood. Even if they managed to get back in the house, They'd die.

      After this, In the morning authorities would come by and they would never be able to figure out what happened. I did see inside the house on a few occasions and I also was in the dream myself at least once; I think I was trying to fish a girl's plastic purple bag out of the river at one point and I did not die.

      On one other occasion, I saw inside the house and there was a large window on the second floor overlooking the forest and I saw a man or teenager who had glasses and short blond hair.

      This might not sound like much when you read it now, But I can assure you that it was cold.

    2. Big Dream Fragments - 30/04/13

      by , 04-30-2013 at 08:54 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      I woke with a clear picture of my dream, so clear and vivid that I just knew it was a big dream - it had that feel about it

      - but then I fell back to sleep and everything vanished, save for a few fragments.

      ... My Father in law is alive, he seems to be ok now. He has gone upstairs to take a nap - I creep into the bedroom as I need to get something, but as I turn the handle the door makes too much noise and wakes him - I panic and go back downstairs.

      .... I am riding in a car, or a bike - not sure

    3. DILD Cookies Are Mmmm mmm GOOD!

      by , 04-30-2013 at 08:01 PM (Ophelia's Book O' Fun II)
      Wow what a night. I woke up at 5am and didn't go back to sleep until after 8am. This may very well be my longest WBTB that led to a successful DILD, not counting the times that I actually GOT UP early, then took a nap later in the day.

      Anyway, the first thing I remember is being in a nonlucid where Danny was taking me to work in the morning. We were running just barely ontime, so I was a bit frantic. When I got out of the car, I thought Danny was helping me get some of my stuff out of the trunk, but he just vanished. I was like ffuu thanks alot. So I grabbed everything myself (including my shoes which I hadn't put on yet in the rush). I got to this ramp(?) that led to the bakery. I just dropped everything to the floor, trying to get my bakery garb on. (Oh yeah, and before that, I thought I saw Danny at customer service, but it wasn't him). Anyway, at that moment I realized that I had the wrong shoes. They were my privos instead of my nonslip work shoes. FFuu again. So I got my cell out and was going to call Danny and ask him to go home and get them for me. Then 2 of my bosses came down the ramp and looked at me like "Wft loser" and i just said" OK I'm hurrying, I just gotta find Danny!" They just walked off looking disappointed. I got my cell, and was looking through the contacts. All I remember at this point is massive device failure. I couldn't find Danny in the contacts. Then when I found his name, I couldn't find the call icon. I was suffering over this shit for a few moments, when I thought to myself that this HAS to be a dream. Too much stress and nonsense! The weird thing at this point, was that I didn't "feel" lucid, but I thought I'd try to kick my feel up and do a little low hovering flight, just to test things. And sure enough, it worked! I was weightless. Oh Lord JESUS thank god I'm lucid haha!

      I took to flight with all my stuff gathered up in my arms, and was going to fly out the front door and go find Danny at the car maybe. Then I remembered I still hadn't done the food TOTM yet! I looked at the stuff in my arms and realized that there were some groceries there, including a bunch of green onions. I just bit of a huge hunk of the green parts, and they tasted crisp and spicy, just like they should. At this point I thought since I'm at work anyway, and right at the produce section of Whole freaking Foods, I should have a feast! I walked by the fruit stands, and noticed a displaced cookie case that should have been in the bakery. A giant, soft-baked chocolate chip cookie with marshmallow chunks stood right in front. SO I grabbed it.. god, it was still warm. I shoved about half of it into my mouth, and it was heaven. Chocolatey, melty-marshmallowey, ewey gooey warm sweet deliciousness. I started just going glutton all over this cookie, when I noticed it was making the dream unstabilize. I thought of Alyzarin in her recent food lucid (if you're reading this ALy, I owe you one), so I thought to calm down, and shift my focus. This seemed to chill things out. This next part is VERY sexually graphic. You've been warned.

      Hmm, i guess something else affects the recall in this case then...

      I was in some blue area, then there was some video game stuff and view was switching to 2D, then there was some kind of area with curvy metallic surfaces.

      Tuesday 4/30/12

      last night bed at 1am -9am.

      DR1:

      I'm in a nightclub. A dead girl, all bruised up, is curled up on a bar stool. Two girls sitting on each side of her lean over her and start making out. There is another dead girl nearby, also no one pays any attention. (I watched Defiance IWL and they looked like some people from there.)

      DR2:

      I'm in school. It's empty, I'm looking for exit.

      DR3:

      I'm with my class in a long room. There is a few beds and I'm sitting on one of them. Another classmate is sitting opposite of me on another bed. A teacher brings plastic jug with clear liquid in it. It's Ayahuasca. Some of us are suppose to try it.

      Classmate takes a sip and we watch him for a while. Everybody is watching. It's some kind of a lucid dreaming experiment. Then I take few sips. At first I feel nothing but then I feel something mildly strange with my head. Then I get the strongest vibrations. I brace myself for pain. I doesn't hurt, but I fell like it could.

      The vibrations stopped and I'm wondering why am I not lucid. I decide to test it. I open the glass door to the balcony, which is not too high, just a first floor. I hop over the metal rail and start to hover - fly in the air, right between the balcony and a nice big green tree. Lots of people underneath. Pedestrian zone, some kind of a fair.

      Then I'm back inside the class. I talk about how it didn't get me lucid, but then I conclude, that I was flying, so it must have been very vivid, real lifelike LD. I'm asking lots of questions where I can get ayahuasca and we debate it for a while. (There was a teaser on syfy channel yesterday, about new series and three words flashed on the screen - DMT, Ayahuasca and something else).

    6. ouch

      by , 04-30-2013 at 05:11 PM (Somewhere Over The Rainbow)
      I should have recorded as soon as I got up, now I only remember one part of my dreams. One very weird part. :S

      Something is wrong with my vagina, I'm having it examined by three people, my legs are spread open for the examination. The main person examining it makes a face when they realize what's wrong. She holds a mirror to it so I can see. I try to look but get scared, so don't actually see what's wrong but I know that something has come out of it that shouldn't be there. I get up to walk, I'm wearing heels, I'm limping now that I know what the problem is, as if I'm in pain, but I realize I wasn't limping before the exam, I wonder if I'm faking it. I'll be having surgery for the problem.

      Remembered more - Andrew and I almost broke up, I decided I couldn't go through with it. Also, I was just making toast in the oven and remembered dreaming about burnt bread. Slices of black toast.

    7. Scary Hike

      by , 04-30-2013 at 04:53 PM
      Dream 4:

      I was hiking with friends. We came to this deep but fairly narrow chasm we had to cross. I remember being really stressed out and not sure if I would be able to do it or not.

    8. The DeLonge's Giant Sloth

      by , 04-30-2013 at 04:53 PM
      Dream 3:

      I was going to go on a hike with Tom and Jennifer DeLonge. I went to their house to pick them up. When I got there I realized that I had never been there before. I came into their entry and was in awe as I saw they had a giant sloth skeleton set up. It was the coolest thing I had ever seen in anyone's house before. As Tom, Jennifer and I started our walk, all I could do was to talk about the skeleton and how cool it was and how I wanted one in my house now.
    9. Giraffe

      by , 04-30-2013 at 04:50 PM
      Dream 2:

      We had a pet giraffe in our backyard. When I went to pet it I saw that it had gotten ahold of a large wooden clothes pin and was starting to chew it up. I was afraid that it would choke on the metal part. But before I could get to it, it had swallowed the whole thing. But then I noticed that it had a baggie full of nails and screws in its mouth now. I hurried and climbed up a latter and started trying to pry the giraffes mouth open. I was worried that it would bite me, but I managed to get the bag out of its mouth.

    10. College Storm/Oneironaut

      by , 04-30-2013 at 04:49 PM
      I haven't recorded any dreams for a while. So I'll catch up with a few from the last couple days.

      Dream 1 (DV Member Dream):

      I was in college. It was getting really stormy. I was walking from class trying to get to my dorm. Oneironaut was there with me. He was my best friend and protector. He always made sure I got to where I was going safely. Finally we made it to my dorm. I gave him a hug and thanked him for always being there for me.

      I went into my dorm. My roommate Kierra was there with me. It started to rain really hard. We looked out the window and could see the ocean right behind the building. The waves were starting to get huge. Our dorm building was about 20 stories tall and the waves were starting to crash over the top of the building. Every time a wave hit, we huddled as it smashed against the glass. We were so afraid the window would break and we would be washed away.
    11. Animate inanimates

      by , 04-30-2013 at 04:36 PM
      definitely don't feel like i'm getting enough sleep - maybe that is hurting my recall more than i thought it would. i'll take some melatonin tonight to get to sleep earlier.
      sleep 2am
      wake 9am

      Found a Harry Potter gun. well, it wasn't the gun itself but blueprints for it. told what material was needed for what part. there was a weird bubbly part at one end made from several different ores. brought it to a group of people that agreed humanity wasn't ready for it. to get to the building they were in I had to pass garbage containers and other objects that could move. 'suspicious looking trash can' (written on it) for example. they followed me/moved when I wasn't looking.
      I was swimming at one point (there was an island type deal - i was going in this crevasse to get to the two treasure chests underwater. they started moving (turned into mimics sort of - they still had treasure inside of them if i could pacify them). i think i died and respawned (mimics trapped me underwater). someone there told me i should use some sort of swimming enhancement - speed or fins or water breathing or somesuch ((I've been playing a lot of Terraria on Xbox))
      I think the inanimate objects were having a revolt or strike or something. They were still defining themselves by their usefulness to humans however and couldn't carry out their rebellion.

      ((well, I managed to flesh the fragments out a lot more than I thought I would be able to. Still feel I forgot overly much, but "I think I was swimming at one point" turned into an actual remembrance, so I count it a win))

    12. Very emotional dream

      by , 04-30-2013 at 04:19 PM
      So this guy called "John" in my dream was killed from being like smothered with paint. I was charged with his murder and sent into a prison. The prison was like this huge icy towering hole that went straight down with small cracks on the sides very tightly packed for people to serve their time. They push you off the side with an ice pick and you have to grab hold of somewhere on the way down, I ended up being put next to this guy in my school who I never talk to called Keith. After a while I fell down to the bottom, and realised there was an open door down there so I escaped the prison and one of my friends Paudie was helping me run through this hilly field away from the prison. I heard girls shouting so I looked back and saw this girl Lorraine(Who I'm like in love with I like her so much and we get on really well) shouting like don't run away Fin come on please, so I turned back because I felt bad leaving her there on her own, and I wanted to say goodbye. So I went back and walked up to her and it was really hard for me to say goodbye and I was like crying loads, I finally told her that I loved her and that I'll find her again some day and we kissed, and then I began walking back to the prison and the dream ended. When I woke up I was like really emotional and crying, so I think like some of the emotion from the dream stayed with me when I woke up Anyway, really vivid dream and any dream with her in is amaaazing anyway. :')

      I also started ADA properly yesterday, so pretty fast result.
    13. School; mini-DILD with zombi DCs

      by , 04-30-2013 at 01:44 PM
      Prebed: 1 1/2 glass of soy milk

      Total sleep time: 8 hrs

      Recall method: none, woke up briefly after each dream but was so sleepy, I didn't bother to write anything. Did not attempt WBTB either. Everything is so fragmented now, good thing I still remember although with much less detail the short DILD I had.

      Dream1: We are back to high school and as usual we have to do an extra year. Everybody should be in class soon, I wonder again how are we going to do that. I am waiting for a friend of mine to show up as usual, I don't think he did.

      Fragment2: One of my classmates, her features are a bit strange and now she also has a sister that looks very similar to her. (She actually has a brother)

      Fragment3: On the beach, I am watching the waves. I think somebody, it kind of looked like a documentary and I was part of it, said that here the waves are just the right size to swim and maybe surf?

      Dream4 mini-DILD: The background is grey and a number of DCs that look like zombies are walking towards me. I become lucid. I remember my recent resolution to freestyle during the next lucids and see what I can make out of the situation. I decide that I will use this one to train my reactions. Ok, so they are walking towards me, I don't care at all. I am just consciousness, no material substance, they can't hurt me. They are still advancing, and one comes so close that it actually touches my hand. I feel and see my hand and this destroys my concept of non-materiality. I brace myself for the impact. The dream slowly fades and I wake up.

      Note to self: Maybe I should spend less time thinking and more time acting in LDs?

      Fragment5: I go to the kitchen to look for the bottle of water I bought for myself irl and find that one of our guests has opened it and now holds it in her hand. It is too late to say anything, I just wish this hasn't happened.

      --------------------------------

      April Review

      Number of ld nights: 9 (3 with double lds)

      Number of lds: 12 (2 WILD, 2 DEILD, 8 DILD)

      Quality: Good, with few exceptions, a few fade away issues and changing the scene is still a challenge

      Recall: I am getting used to having a roller-coaster type of recall. I am not sure if I should place additional demands on that at the moment.

      Things to work on:

      - I think I might go for some flexibility on task completion and work more on stability. (But who knows in what kind of mood I will be?)

      - I also want to go back to a more decent WBTB schedule after meeting all kinds of relatives and friends is over.

      - There are other issues (like changing the scene) to work on but will see how it all goes and deal with them accordingly.

      I got more than I expected in April, so I won't be expecting more than I can get in May. Just keep dreaming...

    14. Living in a shack and League of Legends

      by , 04-30-2013 at 01:04 PM
      I had two dream fragments yesterday. The first was just of me playing the game League of Legends, which I've played some recently with old college friends. I don't remember much about it, though.

      The second fragment was more involved. I was living in a shack that was elevated onto stilts, and was very small. As you walked in the door, there was a small set of stairs leading up to the right to a platform where I could sit on a couch. When I first entered the shack, there was a female ninja with two kids. She wanted her kids to fight me, in order to practice their ninja skills apparently. After fighting the kids, she came at me, but quickly we stopped fighting and the dream skipped ahead to my mother being in the same shack, handing me what looked like a rusted out slow cooker. She was very excited, because she had removed a piece of the slow cooker that sensed whether the ceramic pot part of it was in there before turning on. That way, you could just head the metal shell of it.

      Unfortunately, both of these were short snippets, and neither was lucid. I'm glad to be back in the DJing mode, though, and hopefully my recall begins to improve.
