I remember getting ready for my 2nd prom. I don't know why I was having a 2nd one, but anyway I was at home and had to be ready in an hour. I was on the internet and found some video, it was a girl from my school in a video topless. I was surprised, she never seemed like the type of girl to do that and I'd never thought something like that would be on facebook either. Anyway I think I clicked off the video, and then went back on it to watch it again because it seemed different everytime. (Then I think something happened but i'm not too sure lol) Then I went to get ready because I realized how late it was, I kinda regretted watching the video too. I kinda remember a fragment of being there and it seemed like a different place to my real life prom.

Dream recall from yesterday's nap.

I woke up, forgot RC(again) and was checking pillows.

As I did my WILD I had planned on the punch a president TOTM as I have to find some new goals and it seemed worth trying. While awake I decided on the latest Bush. I succeeded in the WILD and had fairly high clarity of mind. For some reason I was not happy with my first attempt in which I just summoned an image of a man that may or may not have been any person in particular. I punch the image and it all had a Batman comic kind of feel, you know, Kapow. The visual had been depressing and I feel it would be a huge stretch to count it. I intended on it being Bush, but it never resolved into a clear image of him, and in no way felt real.
I for some reason decided to try again with Ford. I remember trying to pull up waking knowledge of whether Ford was still alive. At the time I was frustrated as I kind of thought Ford died about two years ago, but just could not figure out if that was factual. However, as I type this I realize I do not know the facts while fully awake (is Ford dead?) so why be hard on myself in the dream?
I wanted to build this up into an actual dream sequence with lots of feeling, visuals and other DCs. I created a back story. I was going to be a college student or something and there would be a charity exposition match. I teleported to a very nicely rendered classroom and secret service types came in and explained that Ford would box one of us in an exposition match. I volunteered.
Next I teleported to a scene outside in an area that looked like the front of a capitol building, complete with a crowd and boxing ring. People patted my shoulders and led me into the ring. Ford came up and was going to do the whole photo-op thing. I felt the dream was wasting time with this, but the randomness added some ambiance, so I did not fight the story line. Then guess what? I freaking woke up.
I think I never really wanted to punch a president. I will just have a nice hugging dream to meet the minor goal this month and leave the presidents alone.

A fairly vivid WILD in which I at one point saw a standing mirror, so I decided to try and use it to change my appearance. I looked down at my dream body and found it vague and poorly represented. I looked at the mirror (not into it yet) and started repeating stuff from the series 'Highlander' such as 'I am Duncan McCloud of the clan McCloud' then I looked into the mirror. I saw in the reflection a fairly true image of the actor in full Scottish garb including a long black pony tail.

I was in a vivid non-lucid and trying to enjoy a natural history museum. As I walked down one corridor I was followed by two young boys who were making loud rude noises. I decided to just let them pass by, so I stopped. They stopped and stared at me. It was clear that they did not want to loose their captive audience. I was pissed off as it proved they wanted to bother me. I took a rolled up paper and slapped one of them very hard with it.
No adults were around, but I figured I should get away from there before some did come. I went out an exit, and wondered if any one saw me go out. At this point I felt the situation was not very realistic and simple RCs showed me it was a dream. I was on a college campus. I started walking around and felt the need to stabilize, so I kept repeating 'this is a dream' out loud. I passed by a couple young women who stared at me. A classic mental stumbling block of DCs telling you were not dreaming. I had nothing planned so I told them that this was in fact a dream, and that I would show them a trick. I started levitating and zoomed over to them and raised about 8 feet into the air.

They of course said I must be using wires or some sort of trick, and that it was not a dream. I told them that I could make lightning or summon things, but that DCs never agree about dreams. I just wandered off and enjoyed some basic screwing around, but my recall fails to be clear on what all I did after that.

After the long WILD I posted I got up and wrote down key words, then did another one. In this one I became lucid and was simply being instructed by DGs and having a pleasant conversation about what I could learn from the prior dream. I know that while in the dream I felt it had a lot of content and lasted a few minutes. However, I failed to wake after the dream ended and now it seems to be gone.

My brother and his fiancée had a baby. I took a liking to my new niece or nephew (I don't remember if it was a boy or girl) and it learned to walk and talk surprising fast. It spoke to me in a baby voice but I don't remember what it said.

I went to sleep at about 01:30 last night and woke up at 07:15, I decided to get a last hour of sleep from 07:30 to 08:30 before I properly got up for sixth form. I had no dreams before this hours sleep and in the sleep I got an LD and completed a task of the month!

Dream 1

I am in a kayak in the middle of a lake and its once again night time, I'm paddling about and water starts to come inside the kayak. This is where I become lucid and nose plug. It is a dream and I think of what I want to do, I remember thinking of trying the TOTM, I was in the middle of a lake and round this lake was plenty of sand to write my name in. Also I thought I'd attempt the prime minister one after, I couldn't remember what the other two were.

I was then on the shore, behind the sand was a woodland area, it was dark so it was kinda spooky. I knelt down and started writing my name. I wrote 'Ryan' however it turned upside down, it was confusing. So I tried it again, I wrote something before 'Ryan' this time, I'm struggling to recall what it was I think it was 'My name is Ryan.' Anyway this time it worked. Mission accomplished it was time to move onto my next goal.

Now it was time to try and summon David Cameron. I thought to myself, when I turn around David Cameron will walk out of the woods. I was standing just before the entrance to the woods. I turned round and nothing was there. I noticed a note on the tree, like Slenderman haha. I walked up to it and it was a doodle which said 'David Cameron is not here you silly SKET' LOL! This made me laugh. That is the last I recall.

Legend: Dream, Semi-Lucid , Lucid

Sleeping:
I'm in a room , my cousins mother is there, it's about 3:00 in the dream, we're talking about something and trying to fall asleep at the same time. I don't remember much else.

7th construction:
I'm playing the character of Zero ( from code geass) and i'm checking progress of construction on something called the 7th. As i watch, i see a worker placing a self down somewhere and i ask jeremiah ( another character from the anime) if that self was supposed to be placed there. He then gets mad at me for doubting his ability to build. Next thing i know, i'm inside a room and i throw up two times, something had me sick xD.
Also while i'm in that room , i remember being in third person and viewing a lake of blood with jeremiah in his spinning mech outside coming to attack me.

Showers:
A dream with showers in it. I remember being in my house, i really need to take a shower , but there's lots of strangers in our showers. I decide to go down the hall and use a different bathroom but there's people in that too. Darn!.

The mysterious skulls:
In this dream, i remember being on a foreign planet digging up piles of skulls with a team of 3-5 people. We eventually find what we're looking for. It's a skull with magical powers, but it's only one of many different skulls out there that are unique like this, and each skull has a different power. I also remember in this dream, having my car parked in the middle of a road.

I had a dream where I was roaming around a neighborhood. I think I was at school at some point.

I still haven't been tired enough for an FILD. I even had an alarm set for 3 a.m., but I somehow still wasn't tired.

Taking a break from the SSILD challenge (mainly because I fell asleep last night before I could do the cycles, but I still had a LD) to share this amazingly terrifying yet still pretty awesome lucid nightmare I had last night. Probably one of the most memorable dreams I've had in years.

The dream started with kind of a commercial for Home Depot talking about all of the services they offer, like free delivery and haul-away, and "the knowledge and expertise to get things done" (not sure if that was actually there, but I know that's on the real commercial...). The final scene of the commercial showed the parking lot of Home Depot. In a very cinematic transition, the logo, phone number, and other info at the end of the commercial faded out as I walked towards the store. I was heading there to get my dad something for his birthday. The store wasn't like a normal Home Depot where everything was inside. Instead, all the products were outside under different tents that said "Hardware" and "Plumbing" and all the different departments at Home Depot. I went over to the hardware tent to find something that my dad would like.

I walked through a few aisles until I finally got to the back of the tent where I saw my mom and dad also browsing. "Great," I thought, "now my dad will see what I'm getting for him." I went up and talked to them, and we talked as we walked down another aisle or two. I then realized that the two of them were handcuffed together. "What are the handcuffs for?" I asked. Neither of them answered my question, but instead they walked away like they didn't even hear it. As I looked around, I realized that all of the couples were handcuffed together. I didn't understand what this was for, but it didn't seem to be right (or legal), so I decided to investigate.

I snuck in through a large sliding overhead door into the employees only area. Inside was this big room with several cargo storage containers in a row towards this larger part of the room that extended out like a very large warehouse. I decided to get on top of the containers so I could get a better idea of where I was. I got on top of the first one, and then ran from one to the next towards the large room. After about 7 or 8 of these containers, I heard this robotic male voice say something like "Crushers Initiated." I saw in front of me a large spiked crusher flattening each cargo container. I assumed that the cargo containers would be moving towards the crusher at a slow pace, which would give me plenty of time before I had to get off. Then I saw a second crusher crush the next container, and soon more and more crushers worked their way towards me, quickly picking up speed. I turned around and ran as fast as I could from one container to the next trying to outrun the crushers. I jumped off the last one just in time and fell onto a large conveyer belt. I heard the robotic voice say "You're not getting away that easily." I then saw a crusher at the end of the conveyer belt, and I was rapidly speeding towards it. I quickly rolled off the side of the belt before I got crushed. There was then a flashing red light and a siren. I expected people to come after me, so I ran in the first door I could find to get away.

Little did I know that I had just set foot in an elevator. I turned to try to go back out, but the door had closed and locked. I was in this small room, when suddenly the wall opposite the door turned into a large screen. The robotic voice seemed to have a sarcastic, biting tone to it (kind of like a male GladOS) as it said, "I hope you feel proud of yourself. Because of your negligence, 26 people have died." The number 26 appeared in big red numbers on the screen. "Now comes the fun part," the voice continued. "I'm going to ask you simple yes or no questions. Answer any of them right, and I let you go. My sensors can also read your fear, which will cost you dearly." I felt my blood pressure rise, and there was suddenly a buzzer as the elevator car quickly dropped. After a while it stopped, and the voice said. "We're now 10 floors down. I'd advise you to keep your cool, as there are only 100 floors." The first question came on the screen. I don't even think I got a chance to look at the question before the ceiling started to close in above me. I then heard the buzzer again as the car dropped again. This time it took me much longer to get under control as the ceiling continued to come down. I was pretty much on all fours before I pressed my answer on the screen.

The ceiling stopped. The elevator screeched to a halt. "I did it," I thought. The voice then started to laugh. "That is so incredibly wrong," it said. The entire screen went red. "And now, due to your ignorance, 64 people have died. I hope you're happy, you incompetent fool." The buzzer sounded and the car started dropping again. "He's playing with me," I thought, "This can't be happening." I had a whole psychological battle with myself for about 15 seconds as the car continued to descend. "I have to get out." I decided to try to wake myself up by blinking really hard and willing my eyes open. Then I realized, "Wait, if I'm lucid enough to know I can wake up, then I'm lucid enough to control this dream."

"Wait, what?" the voice said. I felt this surge of power go through me. I was the one in control now. With heroic strength I pushed the ceiling back up. "Stop, what are you doing?" I reared back with all the power I could muster and punched through the door of the elevator. The doors flew back as sparks flew. I ran into the hallway, where there were now flashing red lights and a loud siren. I ran down the halls (which looked kind of like the halls of the Death Star) towards any exit I could find. The computer wasn't giving up without a fight, though. Two turrets suddenly came out of the walls and started shooting at me. I watched as the bullets bounced off of me. I was invincible, and there wasn't anything that could stop me. I took out all of my anger and rage against this demon computer as I punched the turrets so hard that they sailed down the hallway and exploded. I ran further until these two electrical nodes came out of the walls and shot electricity at me. This time it didn't so much hurt as somewhat paralyze me. I fought against the paralysis enough to punch the wall next to me. I hit so hard, all of the electricity in the entire hall started to falter. The lights kind of flickered as I ran down the rest of the hallway.

I finally got back to the room I started in with the crushers and cargo containers. As I ran towards the open overhead door, I heard the voice say, "Lockdown in 3, 2, 1..." The door quickly closed just before I could get under it. I punched one last time, knocking the door off of its tracks and leaving me enough of a hole to escape. I continued to run, not stopping for a second to look back. The tents that were outside were gone - it was now just an empty lot. I ran for the far end of the parking lot, which had a hill that led up to the highway. The "adrenaline" started to wear off. I started to feel less rage and need to trash everything and more calm and happy that I escaped. I ran towards the hill and saw these rusty metal rungs leading up the hill. I climbed these until I got to the top of the hill, and then the scene went white and I woke up.

So yeah, that's probably the first time I've had a nightmare have a happy ending. It also seemed to end almost perfectly too, with a great sense of closure. I should write a book...

Alright, this morning I woke up tons of times, started daydreaming and drifted back and forth into sleep.
I'm not even sure which parts of the recall are dreams and which are daydreams.
I went to bed late however and forgot meditation. I won't count this as a official day.

1st: Fragments only. Something about Fairy Tail anime again. I think I was in the city of Fairy Tail and some mages attacked us. Me and a couple of wizards were defending the city. It's as if everyone was fighting his own battle 1v1. I wasn't even participating but rather observing the fights. The last thing I remember is something about 2 wizards fighting in the water...

2nd: Also fragments. Daydream of me picking up a girl turned into a real dream. I talked to her and fucked around a little bit. Made some jokes to make myself laugh and that's about all I remember.

Finally broke that dry spell! This was a really fun one. Emotions got the best of me at the end, but it was great while it lasted.

Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

Lucid #113: Woodrow the Giant

I'm in a first-person shooter video game where I'm entering an airport. One of the people I'm with slips some kind of blaster into my pocket as we're walking through airport security. Won't that set off the metal detectors? I think of all this as just a game, though, so I give it a try.

An alarm sounds, surprisingly soft but unmistakable. I keep walking, just in case they think it was someone else behind me. As I head into a broad, bustling concourse, I see a few security guys heading toward me from different directions. They're dressed in plain clothes, which makes them seem less official and more menacing. I change directions and they change with me. I know I'm caught. One guy has his hand on his right hip like he's ready to pull a gun, so I decide to be first. I pull the banana-shaped blaster out of my jacket pocket and start shooting. My first shot catches the guy right in the chest and he crumples to the floor.

I immediately realize that this isn't a video game, but a dream. I remember goals: meet Art at the Alamo and Tasks of the Month. Since this is already a video game scenario, I think that it'll be easy to pull Art in. "[NewArtemis], I know you're right there behind me." No response. By now the other security guys have drawn their guns, although they oddly have not fired yet.

I shoot one more of them and he collapses to the ground. Still, nobody returns fire. "[NewArtemis], a little help!" A woman walking nearby turns around. She's wearing jeans and has dirty blonde hair, not at all the usual hair color for Art's DC, but it's definitely her!

"Hey there!" I say, thinking that it'll be fun to have her take care of the last of these security guys. But when I look for them, they're gone -- everyone is walking through the airport concourse like nothing has happened. I turn back to Art. "You dyed your hair...?" I half-comment, half-ask. (I sincerely doubt this.)

"Hey," she says, with a wry half-smile, ignoring the whole hair thing.

We hug and I say, "Okay, that's Basic. You feel like punching Woodrow Wilson?" (Advanced Task of the Month.)

She nods. "I'd love to punch that guy." (We have never discussed Woodrow Wilson, so I'm likely projecting here.)

I glance around for Wilson. "Let's do it," I say to Art, and then call out to the crowd: "Woodrow Wilson! I know you're here!" We walk along the concourse for perhaps twenty feet when I spot a huge man to our left. Somehow, even with everything around him brightly lit, he's hidden in shadow. The man is at least ten feet tall, probably closer to twelve, and he's flanked by two normal-sized men who don't look like they're doing anything in particular.

"Is that you, Woodrow Wilson?" As soon as I say this, the man's face is illuminated and it's definitely Wilson -- long, expressionless face, glasses, the whole bit. Weirdly, he's dressed in the style of a Catholic priest with a cassock and clerical collar. He strides toward us quickly and moves up very close to crowd me.

Wilson doesn't attack but just stands there towering over me, no expression on his face, his eyes unfocused. I've lost some emotional control and I'm starting to feel fearful. Art circles around on my right, grimacing a little, her hands balled into fists. She can help me, but I know that for Task I know that I need to hit the guy. I try to calm myself down while imagining myself leaping up and doing some kind of superman punch. I'm freaking out a little bit, though, and the dream falls apart.

i ate sweets and my tooth fell out. I was upset that i need to go to dentist, count fingers....felt relief .About half a minute i rememberd the TOTM, and then decided to hug somebody. It was night. I saw a company of young women. They came and i hug one of them. The reaction was normal, like we are friends, but the girl was pregnant...i hug the other girl but she was pregnant too. I didn't like it and i became to loose control and woke up. I felt real but decided don't move to have DEILD.

DEILD I was in the same place, looked at my hand - there were so many fingers, that i needn't to count. I desided to eat fireworks. I went to the table - there were a lot of things, and fireworks too. I took one, the size of my fist. But i couldn't swallow it - it was too big. I took small little firework - like candy and swallow it. Then i tried to shoot it from the fingers, and in some time i had small sparks I tried to make sparks from the mouth. I could and the sparks was bigger. I opened the door in the wall intended a volcano behind it. Made a step and there was big town under the big volcano. There was big black smoke column. I began to climb the volcano but there was a splash of lava and when it touch the ground it turns into red squirrels!!!! There were a lot of red squirrels and red kittens around me!!! I felt that something took me into real and awoke.

Slipped my mind.
