The first dream of the night that I recall involves a very, very tall skyscraper. It's so incredibly tall that planes fly around it rather than over it. I am on my way to the skyscraper. Instead of flying in a plane, I am in something like a swing-set seat, suspended from some sort of flying device. It's just a plastic seat with cables on either side, no sort of safety restraints or anything. The sky is clear, but it's a sort of washed-out blue with no clouds. I'm terrified of heights, so I have my eyes closed and a death grip on the cables. I'm trying to explain to my mother (who is neither next to me, nor on the phone, but she can hear me anyway) that I'm incredibly afraid of heights, and this is terrifying. She doesn't understand why it's so scary. "But you're not afraid of being in a plane," she says. "Planes are solid metal," I explain. "There's something surrounding me. Right now, I'm just sitting on a seat, without anything around me." As I approach the incredibly thin, super tall building, I recall a dim memory in being in one before and how unsafe it felt. I tell my mother, "Last time I was in one of these buildings, I was terrified and clung to the walls. They're too high. I don't feel safe in them." As I make my final approach to the building, everything goes black. It's sort of like a scene change would be in a non-lucid dream, if I was paying attention. And when it happens, I do notice this time, and realize that I was dreaming. The world suddenly pops back into existence around me. I am in what looks like a hotel room. I understand that this is sort of like my brain trying to create my bedroom, but I've been focusing hard on being somewhere different, so it pulls up something that is supposed to be my bedroom, without it being my actual bedroom. The whole thing is very... "four stars"? Not quite a five star hotel room, but not cheap. But a little tacky, like it's trying too hard. This environment is much clearer than the past few I have found myself in. Side note: I still don't spend enough time really examining and exploring my surroundings, but I did pay a little more attention this time. I really need to pay more attention to what is around me at first, rather than doing some half-assed stabilization and immediately diving into whatever I am doing. I feel like the more attention I pay to where I am at first, the more successful my attempts to manipulate the dream are. There is a gilded oval mirror on the wall. I decide to jump into it to see if I can do a scene change. I dive into the mirror, and I am standing in front of it again. I dive into it again, and I am standing in front of it again. I dive into it again, and I am standing in front of it again. I stop and inspect my reflection for a moment to stabilize the dream again. For some reason, my hair is very short. I try not to let it bother or frustrate me too much, and it really doesn't. I decide that if I can't do a full scene change, I'll start manipulating my environment into what I want. The hotel bed is very cushy, with nice accent pillows and bedding. The bedding is off-white with very thin red pin-stripes. I don't want red. I want purple. Without even closing my eyes, the pinstripes are suddenly purple, and the colors of the furniture and wallpaper and other decorations have shifted to match the new color scheme. There is an end table with a small piece of carved driftwood on it. The wood is old-looking and grayish. It has been carved a little bit, but I still can't tell what it was meant to be. I inspect and feel the wood, to solidify things a bit. I look around. The room has a very nice door, but it's not what I want. I decide that I want something more rustic, and more rounded. I cover my eyes and uncover them. The door has morphed a little bit, but it's halfway between the original (red, then purple) door and what I want. I cover my eyes and uncover them, and it is the shape that I want, but not wooden. I do it again, and I am satisfied with my nice, wooden door. I look around the room. The furniture has changed a little bit. It's not the frilly, floofy stuff that I didn't like. The chair is more worn, softer, and comfortable-looking. The end table is now made of what looks like old, "reclaimed" wood that was rescued from an old barn or something and crafted into a table. I turn my attention to the windows, and do the same thing I did with the door. After a few tries, they are close to the windows I want. Unfortunately, on my last try, I open my eyes and wake up. I do a quick reality check (try to put one hand through another hand) and I can't pass my hands through each other. I'm still not sure if I was really awake, but I roll over and fall back asleep. I have a vague dream of two women in the hotel room, arguing about something. Then, I dream that I have bought a bouquet of fresh cut flowers, but when I bring them home and try to arrange them, I realize that I have no vase. Then I am playing a video game with extremely simple Atari-style graphics. There are several characters that you can unlock, and they all have their own individual stats.
07-05-2014 Last nights lucid was obsessively long. To the extent that I likely won't be able to record the entire thing right now. But I'll start. I'm in a city my friend D. We're in a car and I'm driving. We're deciding which crimes we're going to commit, when my friend says there are way too many police around and he gets out of the car and runs away. An hud like in GTA appears and my view becomes third person. I can see that there are dozens of blue police markers around me on the screen in the process of catching another criminal. I get out of the car and wait for the "end mission" option to appear on the screen and start pressing a non existent "select" button in my mind. But I run out of time and a cop right behind me begins to pursue me. A clever us of parkour on the walls of the city in front of shops allows me to evade him. I think at this point my view became normal again. After some walking around I manage to find a homeless guy. I cant remember what I did but he starts chasing me with the intent to kill. He follows me to some building and I make sure he's following me up each flight of stairs. I get to the top of the apartment and theres some girl there barely dressed shouting about how much of a whore she is. She walks back into her apartment and then I get an idea (or maybe I had it the entire time) I trick the hobo into listening to me and we walk into the apartment. The girl gets up to fight back but I use her name (which I know because she said it when she was shouting) and I tell her I brought then hobo she wanted to fuck. I tell him to wait in the bathroom while me and her argue. I holding her now and I try to have sex with her but she isn't in the mood. After a lot of arguing and persuading she's finally in the mood (i think I was rubbing up against her the whole time so its natural) I don't think I was lucid though so I can't even remember if we had sex. This may have happened after or been a part of a previous dream but I think it may have happened here. Its more of a dream fragment but anyway I was in a movie theatre watching some movie and instead of sitting in one seat I was jumping around from seat to seat (literally jumping) and the seats were all movable so I was rearranging entire rows. They were all falling forward and making a noise and there was barely anyone in the theatre. Every time I would try sit in a row with people in it they would disappear by the time I look at them. Eventually I think I'm kicked out of the movie theatre so I walk down the ramp and I leave. While on my way to use the toilet I see a friend of mine named J. He's the same friend I had in a dream in April who had superior powers to me when I was lucid. Anyway in this dream he's normal. I see a bunch of old friends from my high school so I make a point of greeting all of them. We're moving through groups of people while talking and some girl bumps into me. She's from my old primary school. For some reason at that moment I was giving her money in exchange for food. she shouts that I have to compensate her and that she's on her period. She charges me an obscene amount and I leave really saddened. I get to my seat and put my stuff in my school bag. (we're on what appears to be a bus now). Cant remember what happened next. This is where the lucids start. The first lucid is sketchy because its taken me half an hour to write all of this down. I can remember the second one perfectly. Anyway I think I'm at home in my parents bathroom on my phone and someone runs to me. They're giving me the impression that someone is breaking in to my house and I start hearing loud banging noises outside. I look on my phone and its blacked out on the call screen so I can't phone for help. It looks weird and I exit to the main menu. Instead of doing this It shows me a list of five things. I cant remember what they were right now but in the dream it was 5 things I had to remember. It was about a reoccurring lucid dream I've had before. This makes me lucid. With my phone in my pocket I fly out through the closed window and get outside. The minute I'm outside I think I started fighting someone. For the life of me I can't remember who it was. We were flying the whole time and I remember concentrating on my flying skills to levitate so that I could still fight upright. The rest of the lucid concerned a little boy who was about 9 or 10 as written on my phone earlier but I cant remember. All I remember was that at the end of the dream I rechecked my phone, so that when I FA'd I would know what the next mission was. Lucid number two. Immediately after waking up I think I did a quick RC and became lucid. I flew out of my bedroom window. I could hear my father talking behind me. Normally my behavior allows whoever is chasing me to catch up because I doubt my flying skills and then they do. My father almost does catch up and I have to push him backwards with my hand. But at some point he gives up and turns around. I found this weird at the time because he'll normally try to distract me and ruin my lucids. But I was treating him as if he was an object of the dream (which he is, he's just a DC) so he must have lost the only purpose he served. With renewed vigor I flew over the treetops in my backyard at blazing speed. Now I was flying over a forest with tons of trees and giant beautiful trees that were brown and orange and green. I landed on the ground and Ninjas started attacking me. My friend who had previously bailed on me when the cops were around returned and together we used martial arts that couldn't possibly exist in the real world to kick those ninjas to the curb. We then saw a house in the woods. My friend wanted to break in and hurt everyone inside and rob them. I went to the opposite side of the house and waited by a bathroom window. I could see a guy inside the bathroom. The minute I heard commotion I smashed the window, to give the impression that it was an organized force attacking and to break the morale of the people inside. I then entered through a side entrance next to the kitchen. There was a burglar gate there and two guys were blocking it. A short guy who was bulky and a guy the same height as me with massive muscles. The short guy pissed me off so much with is comments that I told him we were now going to fight. We moved past the big guy who I was being very polite to given the circumstances, and stood in the kitchen of the house. It was my kitchen we were back in my house. While putting on gloves I told the guy I don't have mma gloves only weight lifting gloves, but he was ignoring me. I could see he had the exact same type of gloves as me. I decided I was through trying to be nice to this guy and that I would kill him. But the dream ended here and I woke up for realsies. First lucid of the month, recall was good considering I've only slept 4 hours. Ok I'm going back to bed now!
25-04-2014 Haven't written down any of my dreams this month. Last night I had a lucid I'm not exactly sure how I became lucid but I did. I think I was at home or something. So anyway there are two groups of people and I think they are fighting. I decide to join in on the fight for one group and at that exact moment everyone starts using powers. People are shooting fire, explosions are happening everywhere and people are using cool enchanted weapons. I summon some kind of staff that has a little bit of cushioning at one end to protect the person I'm fighting against. I'm kicking ass and taking names but then I see a friend of mine on the other team. He's dual wielding swords and tells me I have no chance against him. I extend the pole like Goku's staff from dbz and try to smash him with it but he moves faster than I have ever moved in any lucid in my life. He's slashing me to pieces and over powers me every time I try to strike him. I turn around to flee, and phase through a gate so that they cant catch me. I'm in my backyard now and I fly onto my roof. I decide to summon a monster. The first one that appears is some kind of giant flying snail thingy from Final fantasy but it attacks me. Then another one appears and they're both trying to catch me. I try throw flames at them but they are fire element themselves so they just spew more of it at me. I think some kind of giant wolf or dog comes and attacks them so I fly away. I try to summon a dragon and two purple ones appear and also attack me. I run and jump and use buildings as cover until they eventually get bored and fly away (probably towards the other monsters). I calm myself down and I think I tried to stabilize the dream. Then I thought that the next monster I summon must be faithful to me. I summon blue eyes white dragon and I hear it flying and roaring before landing beneath the building I'm hanging from. I can see its also hostile so I jump down and land on its back. It tries to knock me off with its tail but I imagine theres a floating playstation triangle button in front of me and I press it to mount. The dragon is now under my control. I go back into my house and blow the door apart with my dragons flame. When I get to the main fight everyone is riding on the backs of these funny looking lego dragons. My one also turns into lego. I shoot flames into the ceiling to distract everyone and My dragon starts biting everyone else's, breaking them into pieces. Eventually my dragon runs out of pieces and becomes a little toy. I jump off and start attacking the other team, this time working together with my teammates so that each fight is two on one. My friend with the swords sees me again in the middle of a fight with someone else. Two other members of my team and I charge at him to sucker punch him, but he kills all three other members of my team. I'm fighting with all I've got but its no use. I fly away to escape once again but this time he flies after me! Its now night time. I fly at top speed, then I shoot straight up into the air. He's on the ground but jumps straight up to my height in an instant. I fly down and try to get to where I remember the monsters were spawning. But he flies down and these chains shoot out of nowhere and restrain all of my limbs. I'm dangling upright suspended off the ground now. He looks at me and tells me I've gotten so weak. I'm thinking of escaping this body the minute he attacks and firing a suicide attack at him where my soul tries to destroy him at the cost of my body. He knows what I'm planning and doesn't get closer. The dream ends with him going to kill the rest of the members of my dream.
08-04-2014 Had a dry spell for a while because of university. So today I took a nap in the middle of the day. Guess what I had? My first WILD!!! Didn't even concentrate on it. Just laid down in bed and a couple minutes later the music I went to sleep to was off and I felt like my whole body was already in SP. i could hear a little girls laughter in the house and I felt like someone was standing over me but I ignored it. Then my body shook really hard and I felt like I just melted through my bed. I waited for a while until I could see and I was lying on my bed looking at the door. Did the nose RC to confirm I was asleep and then I flew out the window. The lucidity itself wasn't that good because I didn't stabilize or calm down. I eventually lost it and was in a normal dream. I was in some place where they had a huge wave pool. Surfed for a bit. Then the rest of the dream took place in a beach. Thats all I can remember because I was too lazy to get up and write down my dream afterwards.
5/7* this entry is mainly for notes that I forgot to add to my last entry and will add my LD this morning which was fairly short just before waking up for the day. Factors that may have to contributed to my previous very nice LD (previous DJ entry): -self-awareness (recent refocus on) -open beta exercises -weirdness induction second night in a row(now 3rd) -taking control / boldness dream sign second night in a row (as of 5/6 LD) -ssild The one I had this morning was very close to when I get up for the day and I usually have very low awareness and I am usually very zoned out. I was also very tired from my game last night so I wasn't planning on trying but I did do a little weirdness induction when I got up to go to the bathroom but quickly went back to sleep. I think I even felt a little tired in the dream. Anyway I was in my old bedroom at M Boulevard and I saw a man and woman walking in the front yard and I thought that was strange and they were turning around towards the side of the house and I thought this seems like a dream scenario. This is a thought I have had more often recently...of scenarios feeling like a dream scenario. Sure enough the guy comes up to the window and is trying to come into the window and I play around with him a bit pointing my finger at him like a gun considering summoning a gun and shooting him but then I thought well let me talk to him and ask him what his name is. His face does look slightly familiar. He has kind of an odd nose and a half-homely face with brown hair (in waking the only person I can think of makes me think he did kind of look like DP from high school, the one who lived about one quarter mile to the right of my street but I think it may have been someone else that I've seen somewhere). He said his name was Hareuna. I ask him to say it again and he spells it. As I'm confirming the spelling, I wake up. I see online a few people with Arabic names with Hareuna in their name...google search says are you sure you don't mean Haruna which seems to be a Japanese name and battleship. I don't remember ever seeing that name before, though I could have forgotten. 143

I don't remember my first dream so well. I wasn't lucid. All I remember was trying to lucid dream at the beginning. I ended up seeing images of a city like place where i would appear but the dream wouldn't keep going. It's cause of my cold and there was too much saliva in my mouth. But at the end of the dream I was trying to find a safe place for my parakeet Marisol. Cause I found her with her feet stuck to a piece of wood in a drawer i think. It was weird...Anyways the second dream started with me walking with my mom and younger brother through a bridge and into a building.There we saw two people and a Lady at the front desk. The lady was complaining about a guy she said was asking a question like 265 times on the bridge. We didn't see the guy though so I thought that was kind of weird. But I was still happy we didn't cause that would have been annoying.We than entered a room where people were playing soul caliber. I wanted to play so I chose Talim after grabbing the remote. We played for a little bit but than I got bored and left the room. When I left the room I noticed I was in a place that looked like my house. Not like the building i was in and became lucid at that point. I ran up the stairs with the goal of looking for Eye my dream guide. But when i reached the living room I was walking slower and couldn't speak. I tried to reach the door but stopped when I heard someone was behind me. In my mind i repeatedly hoped it would be Eye. I stopped after i felt no one was there though but i noticed i could finally move and speak. So I ran downstairs calling for Eye. But instead I bumped and fell on a girl who looked like she had a really big head. She wanted me to kiss her but I said no and ran into another room. In the room I sat on a bed and looked at a silver heart balloon that I found. It had a number on it and words but than it changed and there were just words about donating to people in need.At that point i felt like giving up but than a tall, slim boy walked into the room and hugged me. He didn't look like Eye at all so I was like your not Eye. I couldn't see his face. He was like a dark black figure. He said he wasn't so I left the room after pushing him. I was still determined to find Eye but ended up losing my lucidity. After that I appeared at a place where I found my mom's tablet i think. I turned it on and watched a singing cover of a teenage girl singing a Japanese song. There were some teenage boys around me who i thought was my brothers new friends. I didn't want them to see what i was watching so i changed the video after liking it and ended up seeing a sing a long version of the song. I started to sing a long with the video since it sounded really good but than stopped cause i thought i might embarrass myself. I than got up and fed my parakeets in the dream. A boy said something to me about my bird and annoyed me. I think he was digging in my parakeets food thing for treasure too. I told him to stop than suddenly walked into a room where i heard a male voice say I have to pass two tests that most have failed to pass. The image of a old game suddenly appeared. In the game i dropped some bombs around and went through the portal type thing.The game ended and I suddenly appeared in a bright yellow room where the walls looked like the night sky. There I saw a big lizard [who looked like a orange iguana] with a small white, kind of fluffy tail. I was eager to pass the second test so i was like "okay,I'm ready." He told me to take a apple and to get rid of the ants that were on the red wine colored arm chair.So I took the apple and started to squish the ants that were on the chair. When I looked at the apple i saw an ant ate through the apple and was kind of still alive.That's when the iguana thing started saying I have a tail like him. But his tail is more silky, softer and white. I was like oh and than he said dogs are smarter than cats. So I guess i had a cat tail. I also remember that in most of my dreams i turned out to be a light pink fur cat. [Not like the Spinx] Than that's when a girl with a tail appeared out of no where and started to argue with the iguana saying cats are smarter and better companions I think. Than I saw a image of a cute little kitty on a rock in a ocean where the mom passed by her. The kitten said something to its mom i don't recall and than I woke up.I was kind of lucid during the test thing but I should have used the apple to lead the ants off the chair, not squish them with it...Oh well. XD Funny dream.

20:20 put on blue blocking glasses 22:20 mugwort tea (2 tbsp mugwort, 1 bag mixed mint tea) + bedtime remee on, settings: initial delay: 5.5hrs (selected) nap delay: 30 mins signal interval: 15 mins wiggle off brightness: 10% 15% 20% (low selected) brightness ramping off pattern 1: sweep bounce x 4, fast pattern 2: glow alt x 3, fast pattern 3: sweep bounce x 3, fast Remee signal didn't wake me up, Don't remember seeing it, maybe wasn't dreaming? 05:36 Lots of short fairly unaware moments, fairly weird, recall came in slowly, had to work for it: + something about a monkey going on a lord of the rings quest + DO following a train going very fast the train jumps the track and then keeps barreling on down the dirt path, I expect it will jump back on the tracks, then I double back through the neighborhood I was just flying through + Somebody (me?) calls out "Shots!" and my friends (7-10 of us) and I all lie down in the middle of the room on our stomachs propped up on our elbows in a circle facing the center. Shots glasses are placed in the middle of the circle. On the far side of the shot glasses from me there is one larger tumbler glass. The liquor is poured and we all drink. I instantly start feeling veeeeeery friendly and cozy with the girl immediately to my right, I this is a little inappropriate but I don't care. We're kind of snuggling up against each other now, pushing our shoulders together and our hands meet (my right hand her left) and we hold hands with curved curled fingers while the next round is being poured. I think the guy with the tumbler is going to get wasted fast. I pick up my 2nd round and look to my left and right to make sure my friends have enough, I offer to pour some of mine into the cozy girl's glass but she has enough it turns out. I think if I'm already this hammered from 2 shots, how could Matt Damon in "Promised Land" possibly do 10 of them, that explained why he was so messed up in the morning. + it's a really long ride home on GP Blvd on my bike so I get on the bus, I can't then find my bike I'm looking all over I eventually find it folded up under one of the front seats. + Some sort of team-based conflict, I grab an important building first, let some of my team in, then the opponents want to come in too and I feel sorry for them, it's a bad idea but I let them in, then later we're outside and fighting + I look down and see I have a small hole in the center of my right big toe toenail, there are grains of sand and grit in there I want to get it out, I sit down, then I see a huge crescent shaped slice of toenail separating from my foot it's about 12 inches long or more + a guy I know next to me gets upset when I start talking about documents, I ask how he did his, then I see a pictorial essay of the process of how the documents are approved, it's extremely involved, they start by taking a picture of the documents in a box to prove what you handed in, then I see the finished product, laminated in shiny laminate, with pictures of fancy buildings and churches stamped on them. + There's a mall on the top of a hill, it's the only place for the local residents to shop, so it's really crowded, I see a few big black women clerks standing around with really big hair, I'm walking through lots of people in a store, I'm in a grocery store large with strangely curving refrigerator cases crescent shaped protruding from the walls, I turn around and see a large (cheese?) island with 3-4 bored looking women store clerks sitting on tall stools + I approach an opponent team (college aged) on their territory, there's about 20 of them sitting down all along the walls in a rectangular shaped room (a table in the middle?) I walk the perimeter of the room and we're trading verbal jabs, it's a tense atmosphere, I make a comment about how I could kick their asses in programming (they're more hardware guys), and I say I'd be the top of the list in the chess tournament, too, I see the list for the chess tournament then on the wall and indeed I'm in the top 1/4 of the results. + I hang up my wife's purse from the chair it's sitting on to a long wrack filled with clothes & things on hangers, my wife then can't find the purse,I say it's right there on the right side of the wrack where I put it, she can't see it and says it ussed to be right there on the chair put remee into nap mode 06:55 was getting very relaxed and close to sleep and the remee hit shocking me awake. Dreams not "taken to a new level" from mugwort. They were wild & wacky but not much more so than usual, and awareness very low, recall took a long time.

LUCID *Without mentally stating it I know that I am in a dream. Next thing I do is try to will someone I know up the stairs. Then a beautiful girl walked up the stairs. We smiled and hugged for a while. I looked closer to realize that this was my girlfriend but with a different body. Then came up with a good idea of manifesting photos that shows my past. The first pictures I did were just random things like portals and other stuff I couldn't quite make out. Then I manifested one that showed an apartment window as I looked closer it seemed to be my apartment from riverside. I thought wow I think this actually worked. I didn't look exactly like it but close enough. Then for some reason I started to make things disappear while touching them. In this dream I was just messing around with my powers. NON LUCID *I am at my old job sitting all the way back of the call center. I think this is a nice quiet place to work.
* Like yesterday, there were some extra cups of wine before going to bed... .../It's a celebration day on the town I'm visiting from a long time. I see an aunt and ask her for her son, my fellow cousin to salute him. She tells me where he is, but I notice "his parents" are sitting in the same table and they're not too friendly. Anyway, I don't care and go to give him a hug. I try to make a joke about me getting drunk at the airport and sitting next to the airplane wheel just before the airplane starts to move. He doesn't get it. I think because of it has been a long time since we don't make jokes together/... .../I'm walking on a road, getting in a town where its welcome sign literally states: "Welcome to the state of California. Our little DOF things" (DOF is written in overlapped capitals). Then I get into a bar where a DC-mix of some drunk people I know, invites me to have some beers. I accept although I don't feel motivated to drink. He gets angry with me, and throws the whole content of a bottle on a wooden wagon. Then he asks me to leave and threats me to throw a rock on my head if I don't go because of I'm being a killjoy. I got confused and decide to better go out. In the street, I see the DC going out turned into my dad. I'm walking on the streets, feeling sad. It's cold out here and I'm wearing just a t-shirt. I want to go to the apartment we rented with a friend of mine/... * Apparently we rented that apartment in another dream and we live there with some other friends and family. .../change one letter game could be bravest from breast... .../I have to deliver something in the 14th floor of a house. The elevator door gets closed when I'm about to step into it. The door opens while the elevator goes up. Now it's just a platform and I can see the stairs and all the stuff around. I must stay standing in the middle. I see an old woman going upstairs. The elevator stops in the 15th floor. I get out of the platform. It's just a sort of stairs with huge steps that I have to go down. There's a big empty space in the middle. The woman stands in the opposite side where I am. I ask her to be careful, she says something and makes a wrong move, then she falls. I run to take a look down. She's sitting on a table talking with a girl friend. She mocks about something pointing at me. She's not dead. There's something going on here. I want to go downstairs very quick and think I could take a shortcut by jumping if it's what I'm starting to think. This place doesn't make sense, I know what it means! This time I don't want to jump due to the vertigo. I go on with the plot, I still have her delivery in my hands. I throw it close to her. She doesn't like it, I don't care. I look around to see how can I go out. I see some escalators on my side leading to a wall with a hole above it. I command them to stop. They stop and I have to climb to get on the roof of a building. I hear she is quite upset following me. I command the escalators to move again to squeeze her against the wall, but she gets out before getting trapped in the motion. Now she looks very young but angry, she wears like a witch from the middle age. She stands in front of me yelling something. I feel scared but I have to control myself. Using my mind, I throw her against some sharp spikes I see in front of the house. She gets impaled uttering some spell on me. Her mouth looks like a Venus flytrap and it opens to the sides. I command with my mind the spikes to open up. It finishes her. Now I see the dream in 3rd person view. I see a DC who looks like Harry Potter, getting out from my point of view, he gets close to a door that I previously saw stating it was level 13. Now it's time for another level, the number on the door changes to a lower one, and it opens to show a wall. There's a couple of brown werewolves getting out from a window. The female one has two bats flying like flies around her head. The traffic in the streets is weird. Most of the cars move backwards. The authority car has a toilette in stead of a seat, and the driver seems to be taking a shit while driving. He speaks with somebody with the radio. This place is weird and I'm wondering what have the werewolves to do here/... * I have to point out about this one, when I started to write down some fast notes (which is really tedious due to the fatigue) I barely remembered a couple of fragments of the final scene in the city where I wasn't lucid anymore. It was not until I wanted to go back to sleep, when I was able to remember the whole lucid sequence. Then my scratched writing turned into something more devoted.

Morning of May 7, 2014. Wednesday. Dream #: 17,306-02. Reading time (optimized): 2 min. I was at a funeral at the La Crosse Civil War Memorial (Campbell Cemetery) in winter during blasts of wind and snow. Two others in black 1940s formal apparel are near me. (They may be older versions of Zsuzsanna and me.) We are standing on the wayside, opposite the railroad tracks, not the woods where the funeral was. (I do not think of the unlikelihood of public graves between trees.) There are two cars parked along the road, the one that crashed in “Fear No Evil” (1969 TV movie) and my red 1922 Lincoln Phaeton (recurring dream car only). The old couple faces the woods as the wind blows snow across their backs. They do not move even after being covered in a light layer of snow. Another man approaches from our right. He acknowledges me but ignores the other two. He wants me to drive him somewhere, but not in either of the vehicles present. I become liminally aware I am dreaming without recall of what a dream is, only that my thoughts shape my world. I summon the red 1958 Plymouth Fury from “Christine” (1983 movie). The other man is happy with the car and our forthcoming road trip. I drive fast (not recklessly) over backroads in hilly areas. The car ends up on the carport of the Cubitis house. (I would have had to drive from Wisconsin to Florida in less than fifteen minutes). I am parked facing the orange grove, perpendicular to the driveway (which would be problematic as it would block both entrances to the front of the house). I am unsure where the man (preconscious simulacrum) is. I may have dropped him off somewhere. Looking down, I see a toad to the right of my right foot. It is about half the size of a cane toad. I pick it up and throw it out the window to my left. I consider that other toads may be in the car, but I do not worry about it and looking around, I see no evidence of others. At this point, my dream loses cohesion. Notes: The toad in the car may have been an association with “Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride” from “The Wind in the Willows” (both the book and the Disney attractions). It is similar, in some illustrations, to the car from “Fear No Evil”. My dream begins with the presence of sleep simulacrums (the old couple that becomes lightly covered with snow), the association with a cemetery as analogous to sleeping and being separated from waking life and my identity. The unknown man is this dream’s vestibular system simulacrum (a personification of the preconscious) as we ride in the car, which is an imaginary extension of my physical body while in the dream state. His original approach from my right stems from the waking process as I sleep on my left side with my right more exposed to my environment. A carport is a rendering of liminal space (the ambiguous awareness between dreaming and waking).

These are moments that struck me as odd or notable, drawn from a number of dreams over the past four or five months. All non-lucid. Mainly these are moments that disturbed me, the ones I felt had deeper meaning if I had the wisdom to penetrate the veil around them--moments with animals, periods of huge change in the dream, and quiet, dark aspects. -My ex-girlfriend and now good friend had written a book of life advice. Knowing she wrote it, I spoke to her, and she answered through the pages. I felt a sudden chill of knowing and a measure of uneasiness. She told me to sell everything that I owned. -An old lady who rode my bus. We got off at the same time. In the midst of mindless chitchat, I started discussing centaurs. She told me, "War is coming. Mars shines brighter than ever. And Pluto." I told her, "I am Pluto." -The closest I've been to flying, I was on a Skyrim-esque adventure (what a beautiful, wonderful game), and I had jetpacks that shot me up into the air. I'd fall, then launch myself up again. Think Iron Man, but propulsion rather than energy. -A wooden boat in an underground crypt, like the Phantom of the Opera. I knew it was preparation for something. Later, a Smith Agent reaches into my forehead. I left, and had a strange incident with a dog, which was tied to me, and a squirrel, which I tried to protect from the dog but ended up scratching me. A group of friends took a look at my wrist, rubbed my forehead and reassured me to not feel fear or anxiety. -A group of schoolmates, who have no drug interest, all took magic mushrooms. They all described it as catapulting the mind into the universe. However, it was intuitively understood that the return to earth would have to be paid in blood. -First lion dream, my friend had one chained. It ran back and forth, the length of its chain. I lay there. It would sniff me each pass, getting closer. Fear. -Second lion dream. I'm sitting with a friend in a field, and I see a lion approach. I determine not to move or show any signs of fear, but I know I'm lying, the lion knows, my scent is palpable. He approaches, sniffs me as if to take a bite. Then, the dream shifts. Another friend tells me the lion was shot with a tranquilizer dart from a helicopter. -In the dark of night, under an underpass in heavy snow, I stumble and fall as I walk with my brother's ex-girlfriend. My hand finds another warm hand buried in the snow, and I grasp it. Fear wakes me. -An eagle perches on a totem pole, and lets down an ancient runed manuscript that reads: 'Human Yoga.' He transforms into a boy named Sam, though he wishes to remain anonymous and is only revealed by a group of passerbys. -As I walk in the front door of my home at night, I see unfathomably massive lights in the sky, like great energy beams charging. They briefly grow in intensity (it looks like ancient letters with the Enlgish W, S and A) then fire. With a primal yell, I struggle to slam my front door shut due to the incredible shock wave that sweeps through. Low in the sky, a ship the size of a small city roars overhead. -A very intelligent, conservative and large dragon was intent on consuming my family, friends and own person. We were in a castle by a forest of evil monkeys, and I was attempting to diplomatically see everyone out of this crisis. -My brother and I were in an industrial, Spartan-like training complex where boys were trained into soldiers. We found a room with water and boxes. I opened one and pulled out this strange fleshly doll, abnormally proportion (large chest and arms, triangular but human). I dropped it into the water, and remember debating whether to pull it out. I knew it was right to, so I did. As I picked it up, it drew breath. -I was playing a hunting game. I morphed into a werewolf, but then took to the skies as a pterodactyl. -A dream of two blind men at different times. One passed me in a hall. The other, I scaled a wall, and he was scaling the opposite way. The guy looked rough, with strange eyes, oozing sores, and an expression of anguish. -Three large snakes were moving in waves, all as one. There was one tiny white snake that I held in my hand. -I had three bugs of different color which I noticed were imbedded in my forearm. They began to hurt, and I scratched at them to break free from their painful bite. -I was driving with my friend in the city, when I noticed a bridge next to us begin to collapse. We were on a bridge, too, and it collapsed behind. As we entered, the buildings of the city began to be broken up and destroyed around us as we drove both forward and in reverse. -I was missing several teeth. A woman I knew suggested I use various crystals and stones, but they were all too large to fit what was missing.
I had another nightmare about Elliot on Sunday night. I was babysitting him with one of my bar customers, Denny, (who in waking life is an insufferable human being and he was no different in the dream world) Denny was working on something in the grass and Elliot was asleep on a blanket (He is 2 now but in the dream he was just a baby again) I go over to help Denny with whatever annoying request he has and Elliot wakes up and crawls over to a very small stream, more like what happens when you leave a hose running on the lawn and the water starts to pool and run, and stuck his little head right in the water. I ran to pick him up out of the water but he had already rapidly bloated up and turned into what looked like a very strange imitation of a baby. Once I realized that he was dead I shutdown whenever anyone in the dream tried to talk to me. I kept thinking, this is a dream, this has to be a dream, this cannot be happening (and it was, thank goodness) but it all felt so real. I remember seeing a photo of Julian, Sydney and Elliot all together and happy. This dream tainted my whole day with an undertone of dread.
This is a collection of all the dreams I've had from October of last year to the present that were written down on random scraps of paper..from now on I'm going to be much more diligent with keeping a detailed account of my experiences. These are very fragmented…I am mostly just an observer but occasionally pull information from my waking life into the dreams. Oct.10 I had a bloody nose, coagulated, my ex boyfriend Shane, guns, we were robbed. Over time we gained weight. I wanted to get kid of the guns? Taking a train to Russia with a group of people I am familiar with in the dream, we almost get kicked off. Green/Yellow tickets. Arrive at station, all of us Americans on one train, we are suspicious (celebrating?) Vladimir Putin greets us and a friend shakes his hand. My friends baby starts to cry, we try to find a sippy cup. We end up at a vending machine and I wipe dust off of it. (Painting? Mirror?) I am in a huge building overlooking a city scape. There are giant windows that let you feel as though you are floating on a cloud. We do yoga in a large open room. It is stunning. Oct. 15th There was a brother and sister, the sister died from a knife or gunshot wound. I remember feeling scared. *Nap* Dreamt I was in my apartment and Shane came home from work (put something in the microwave?) Everything looked and felt completely normal. Did not feel/act like a dream. I felt happy and safe. Oct. 16th I had a dream I was playing soccer in a huge stadium? store? My middle school stairs led us to the turf. We were cops and all having a good time. Phil Perrano was drinking a jack and coke and Ally F was trying to buy a large chocolate milk, bigger than her. Started the game and it turned into just a scrimmage (outside) against some people and a dog. In the dream I kicked the ball out and had to toss it back in but a branch fell in the way. The dog scored a goal and started pissing in the goalies spot. Oct. 18th Scott Paul, long road, drainage ditch, percocet, jail, police, Scott was in the cop car. In the beginning a bunch of us were arrested and I hid percocet in the drainage ditch. I was let out along with another girl and we were having a conversation about how it was unfair that Scott was still in jail when he didn't do anything and that his being black had something to do with it. Reunion with people I've never but knew intimately well in the dream world. Hugs all around, I felt blissfully happy. Oct. 19th Long dream. Kroghs uniform, blue car, window with a white sheet with patterns, pins? Old street, Glenn Rd. Dreamt of jumping in a rocket-like vehicle and almost fell out, was hanging onto the edge as we ascended over my old neighborhood. Flew to somewhere across the ocean. Oct. 20th My dad's wife was pregnant. I drove the boys to school, young. There was the sea and two dead bodies, underwater I could breathe. Morbid feelings or indifference? Dad, dog, death, grandpa Jim, wheelchair, train. Week goes by to the next Monday: Old bag, Kroghs, all-nighter, the moon. Open back door to work and there is a cooler in place of the bus station filled with tropicana OJ. Karen Cip is there, Shane and Michelle. Later in the dream there is a woman with a stroller in the plaza and when I looked back at her again she looked like a piece of film in a movie that was skipping (felt scared) It was very "The Ring" girl-esque. I remember walking through the parking lot of kroghs and wondering about how bright the moon was, there were people in the street and a car on the hill outside Casa Mia. In a bar or diner type place, wood? Keith was sitting at the counter eating lasagna and Joe Rogan was with people talking about a dream/living plant house that lasted millions of years, something about DNA. I was sitting alone at a table and distinctly remember the taste of the coffee the bartender had given me. I had put too much sugar in it and thought "wow, thats really sweet" before remembering that I hadn't stirred it. Michelle and I were comparing tattoos, Keith, wood teepee structure/branches warped wood. I 'woke up' and had a vivid recollection of writing my dreams down but nothing was there upon actually waking…Kroghs, Jamie Rubino, outside, a plane. Oct. 24th Had some scarier than normal WILDS while drifting off…Dreamt of a hospital with zombies/ people killing each other? People were jumping off what looked like railing in a mall but it was outside and there was a building and sidewalk across the way. Then I was transported to a beach with what looked like a rundown city sitting in the sands. Oct. 30th There was a lake/ pond that was very dirty and I was talking to boy explaining to him that I used to swim in it when I was young but it had deteriorated over the years. We were lying under the trees. Talking to my sister about buying a house together and showing her an old note from T. Mccormack Shower, Kathy, Keith? Nov. 3rd I was in my apartment getting ready for bed. I took three benadryl and was looking around. I remember thinking 'I love this place, I don't want to move.' It looked much different than my waking apartment. There was a high ceiling and stairs like in the old cabin and a large grandfather clock, big windows and a bookshelf as well as a kitchen and a TV, which I don't own. I looked in the mirror and under my eyeball (literally when rolling my eye into the back of my head I could 'see' a collection of blood forming at the base. All of a sudden it started bleeding, there was blood everywhere, i could smell and taste the metallic wet and warm liquid rushing out of my body. I ran outside while calling my Mother who didn't answer to my neighbor James and his roommate called out for him. Feb. 2nd I was at the field in front of the Mohawk Ave school, I suppose I was lost. I saw workers by the fence and stopped to talk. I was too nice. Was transported to Joans living room and raped by two men. I remember thinking, these sort of dreams are a good way to practice self defense, when Im dreaming, when its not real. Feb. 4th I took New Mood and Melatonin and had the longest movie like dream Ive had in awhile. It started in a hotel by the ocean. A lot happened here but my recall is scratchy. Transported to a house. There was a man who looked like Don Draper and he was splashing his head with water and brushing his teeth. I watched him become trapped in the house, bathroom. There was a large window into the bathroom with a shadow behind it like in scary movies. He began transforming into a woman (the ghost of the woman who previously lived in the house?) I then became a part of the dream, on a boat with my sister and we were swimming underwater. I met a boy and became enamored but he changed, he was not who I thought he was. I examined my teeth. *The rest have no dates but they were within the last 5 months* Walking on the boardwalk, peeling the skin off a tomato, T. Mccormack in a hotdog eating contest, I went to go watch. Dogsitting and driving around the lake, summer time. Walking through 5 houses that are all connected to get to Poitin. Neil Cowburns houses kitchen is huge and the ceilings very high, there is a picture of him and his children, all very brightly lit with large windows, there was a child making breakfast and I caught and stopped myself from lighting a cigarette. Rounded a corner and found myself in a large circular room with windows that had a very aquatic, sailing feeling to it. Like being on a ship. Overlooking the lake, there was a wide spiral staircase. There was a note from my client, I was late when I arrived @ 4 they had asked me to be there @ 2, 4 and 9 that day. It was a Saturday. I drove down a steep driveway and another woman driving cut me off. I started to drive around the lake, which was much higher up than normal then had to turn back because I had forgotten POitin on her runner. Was with my Mother and StepFather on a family road trip and we came to a town. How did we get here? I know this place. Ive dreamt of this place before. In a square with vendors and Mom was showing me a pretty dress she thought I should get. I was in a dark room on my computer watching porn and the entire family was in the house. Keith was asked to clear the sidewalk of the snow, the whole town was out. I stayed in bed masturbating. The Glenn, darker, covered in water/lake Louis CK was eating a granola bar and taking about being 40 and living in the city. Nom Nom. Was in a wooded area where my house was being fumigated. I went down the dirt road to another house and there was a cute boy, I asked him to fuck me and had an incredibly intense orgasm hands up being pressed against the wall. Shoulder deep in a hot tub at Harmony Beach. I was renting the cabin on Lake Lenape and Shane picked me up for a date but Andy was also on his way over. I discreetly texted him that we would have to raincheck. Shane and I were talking about the heat in the stairway that didn't exist in the real world, the stairs were like my Ammas when I was 3 but wider and with a heater running up along the side. Shane was complaining that my phone was locked and he couldn't get into it. *Long dream* Ryan, Mom, Allie, Nick and I all went on a long hike. We came across a weird duck, it was like a spider and had 4 legs. one of the legs wrapped around my arm and wouldn't let go, Ryan tried to help me get it off. I was the Mall Security. My cousin Margaret and Uncle Scott, I started telling him 'fuck you' as I jumped on an escalator and tried to leave, I started drinking out of a water fountain and looked up into a windows reflection and saw another guard who told me to get away from the situation. In Newton with my mom, she was walking to a resort type place. I lost her, strayed away when I heard people singing and I joined them. The street was on a hill and there was a white car parked where everyone sat outside on the pavement, they kept trying to get me to sing alone but I couldn't remember the tune. Gave me a small scrap of paper with Susan Tedeschi lyrics on it. It felt so good to sing. It started raining and I gave everyone hugs and went to find my mother. I was with my brother and my family on a beach. We were waiting for something when the lake started to ripple and out of it rose a giant alien like aircraft, it was brass colored. Nick put our cellphones in plastic bags. It was taking us to a rail station under the water. It felt like I had had this dream before?
This was the first night I attempted to WILD. If birds normally chirp at around 2:30 AM, I experienced no notable hypnagogia except for some pressure that came very suddenly. This didn't startle me much, though, since I've experienced it before in meditation. Anyways, the dream. I wanted to create my own setting of a cool forest clearing on a cloudy morning, but I guess I didn't imagine it vividly enough because the dream setting I was in was a suburban neighborhood. It was still cool and cloudy, though, like I'd wanted it to be. I physically and lucid-ly ran around and played with the neighborhood's children; nothing notable happened. I got bored after a while and let myself slip into sort of a 3rd person point of view to where I was aware of myself but watching dream-me go about her actions. Eventually I shifted back into 1st person after playing cards with my dad, and woke myself up to write the dream down in my IRL dream journal. I'm confident that my WILDs will become clearer if I imagine a familiar place and continue to practice. I have a choir audition tomorrow, so I plan to try and practice / roleplay that tonight.
Its been a while since i last wrote in my dj,but recently my dreams have been as real and crazy as ever,so i feel that i need to get back into lucid dreaming. So here it goes. Last night was one of the wierdest and realistic dreams i have ever had. I dont remember it very well,but what i can recall is enough to make you say WTF. So i am at this Festival of some sort with live music. Im with a girl that im trying to seduce and my brother is there with his girl. For some reason only one of the girls can have sex that evening. (yes alot of my dreams have a relation to intimacy because well,im a man). So i leave it to my brother and sacrifice my own blue balls. As my brother leaves me and the girl head to a huge tent,alot like the ones in harry potter where they look small,barely enough to hold two people but once you get inside,its the size of a mansion. İnside the well designed colorful tent i see my family sat around a table. We talk up to them and sit down. I light a cigarrete and before i know it my family ( my mom and dad) hand me ecstasy. Without having a second thought i take the pill,but i drop it. They give me two more ( all in different colors for some reason). I drop them on the floor aswell. Fınally im able to hold a pill,and without thinking i throw it in my mouth. There are three pills on the floor and for some reason,no one is picking them up,as if the 3 second rule applied for drugs. Before they see i pick them up and put them in my pocket,thinking that i will take then on the plan home with me. Now in real life im a daily marajuana smoker but i havent got a curiosty for ecstasy,nor have i tried it. Back to the dream. What seems like 15 minuets pass and i find myself outside with the girl,and all of a sudden it hits me right in the face. I suddenly feel absolutely amazing and the band that is playing at the concert sounded stupendous. It was a mix of band of horses and animal collective. As the colors in the sky start to turn purpulish pink i realize im having a legit high in my dream. Which is crazy because its never been so intense and real,plus i had no idea i was dreaming. ( Usually your parents giving you drugs would be a deal Breaker. Nevertheless i continue listening to the amazing yet unknown band and all of a sudden i black out. Like literally everything goes dark for what seems like a few hours and i wake up in my bed.. The feeling ı woke up with was as if i had taken a hard drug ( ıv tried other things aswell).. i walked out of my room and all of a sudden found myself in a airport with the ecstasy still in my pocket. I THOUGHT I HAD WOKEN UP FOR REAL. And thats the wierd thing about the dream. I black out and wake up in my room thinkin its real life when its still a dream. So a few activities pass and i wake up for real in awe. Its was unbeliveable..
