The slapping part is in red. Riding my bicycle to work at night, I get too close to a police trap and trigger a bunch of flashing lights and end up with a police SUV tailing me on my bicycle. I make sure I do everything according to the rules of bike traffic, and glance at my cell phone to check the time as I wait for the crosswalk signal to flash "Walk". All this hassle works, and the police leave me alone. Phew. Walking into work, it's my first day on the job, but I know where my cube is. Only it's down a long hallway, with lots of wooden desks and chairs in the way. Climbing over them, crawling under others, I greet a few new co-workers as I make my way past. One of them tells me about Bob who always mistakes people for other things as they climb over the desks. Finally arriving at my desk in a little cubicle, I try to clock in on the computer really quickly, I'm already 18 minutes past 3. Even though I don't yet have a work schedule, I feel like I should have been there earlier. I enter my login ID, and type the password too quickly, making a mistake. As I attempt to correct it, the manager's secretary approaches me and places her hand on my keyboard telling me, "We're firing you". "It's my first day, why are you firing me?" "You'll have to ask the owner." She says matter of factly before she takes a step back from my desk. I just quit a stable job because my friend works here and really enjoys it. I start to think I quit too soon, and think about how to get reinstated at my old job. She then motions for me to follow her as she is escorting me off the premises. "I would like to speak with the owner" I tell her as we near the main office area. She opens the door to a large office with "Harry" written on the door. Harry looks really pissed off: red faced, sort of sweating, jittery with rage. "Why are you firing me?" I ask sincerely looking for any reason. "Because you were screwing around on your phone!" "But I didn't even use my phone!" "Well, I tried to call you before you got to work and you didn't answer" I think back to my trip to work, and remember when I checked the time, I had no missed calls. And also, when I got to my desk, there were still no missed calls. Humoring his reason, even though it is a lie, I tell him that, "Sometimes the traffic is loud when I'm riding my bike next to the road. How can I get fired for that?" He walks right up to me and slaps me hard across my face. I am a bit surprised, and look back at him with wide eyes. He slaps me again! "How is this making me want to keep my job?" I ask him, only to get another slap. I just take it like a champion boxer because I would like to keep this job, and the odds of doing so would be really low if I retaliated. I stare at him, waiting for an answer, only to get punched square in the nose, then again in the forehead. Tired of being a human punching bag after taking another punch to the jaw, I tell him, "Fine, I'm leaving" and walk out of his office. While attaching my bike bags, and pant straps to get ready to bike home, I overhear the secretary tell the owner that they can't just fire me like that. I would first have to temporarily suspended, then allowed a second chance. Encouraged, I turn back to the front desk and see both the secretary and Harry behind safety glass like at a ticket booth. Harry is ignoring me, and the secretary asks me, "What do you want?" "I'd like to speak with Harry" I tell her. She gestures for me to walk over to his side of the desk. 'This is the first time in my life I've appreciated safety glass' I think as I walk up to Harry. Contemplating how to get him to work with me rather than against me I tell him, "So that we're on the same page here, I'm just suspended temporarily right? Not fired?" He nods in agreement, then tells me I still have a job. I realize he must be afraid I'll sue him and the company for firing me, or at least for the beating he just gave me. I don't plan on it, I just want to have a job so I can buy food. Feeling like I've now got an Ace up my sleeve, and immunity from being fired, I ride my bike back home. Arriving home, my house is in a large parking lot, with a highway overpass going above it, just next to the front door. Someone in the parking lot asks me how I am able to get any sleep, and what it's like living so close to the road. "I don't hear it at all when I'm inside" I tell them as I sort through my key chain looking for my house key to go inside.
I remember just riding down beltline road at night. The feeling was surreal.
- I was at a grocery store with a girl I knew from middle school named #74-94. I left the store and started wandering the parking lot and came across #154-434 driving around. I was wondering why he didn't stop for me, as he was my ride, and he clearly saw me. He later came up to me without the truck, and explained he had to return it to someone else. I was a little concerned, explaining now we were stranded. - A friend of mine, #28-22, was on her couch back home and her mother walked in. Her mom, a very short, stout lady, was very open with her sexuality. My friends father was also there and picked up the mother, threw her on the couch, and then picked up a couch nearby. He later opened up a book entitled "Streets in Heaven." - I had a false awakening in which I met my sister, and was explaining to her she should keep a dream journal. She was telling me she joined my work, and was working with the friend from earlier (#28-22). At one point she was in a car with me and my father. We drove by a man named "Arms" who walked with one arm on the ground. At one point my sister left the car and was being dragged by "Arms." I felt uneasy about this, but didn't realize she was in danger. "Arms" collapsed for some reason and my sister was able to get back in our car, explaining how she was captured. My father looked really upset at this, and explained he didn't know or would've shot him. Instead, he started driving towards the collapsed man and attempted to run over him twice. I don't remember if he was successful. - I remember seeing my old roommate, #0192-210, in a bathroom stall. I walked past him and started washing my hands at the sink. Another guy, shorter than me and black, started making some comment about my sister I believe. I remember feeling angry about this, and ignoring the guy.
I saw Kurt Cobain numerous times in this set of dreams. Somehow I think he's alive although people think he's dead - He even went into a long explanation regarding the band Nirvana in another dream I had. I saw cartoon characters from 2013 and Shaggy and Scooby-Doo were there, Someone also made a huge sandwich for Shaggy. I saw drawers and in them there were masks. One was of Ian Curtis (Who was the singer of Joy Division) and it was rotten like a corpse. There were other masks too but that one pops out in memory.
we snuck into green hills country club. there was a really dramatic scene involving a waterfall and some guy falling off of it. anyway, we convinced the guy at the front desk to order us a pizza. I was woried that he would find out we were imposters. later i snuck into a parking structure and these guys were trying to kill me and i shit myself cause i was so scared which made them laugh so hard they fell of the stairs and died. then travis did something to fuck up one of their eyes really badly
I really wanted to get this one done and it was actually easier than I thought it would be. Pre bed supps: 5htp (I had stopped taking this for about a week prior to last night) Bed at 945 Alarm set for 515 and had dream around 5. No WBTB or WBTB supps I had a good 3 or 4 vivid dreams with really good recall before this one too, but ill just log the Lucid. I don't remember how exactly it started but I was in a row standing outside in some sort of class, we may have been sitting at first. There were several rows in front of me, I was probably the 6th row back on the far right side so no one standing next to me on the right. The teacher was asking questions, something about capital letters, I'm guessing it was an English class. A girl two rows in front of me was answering the question, she was saying some crazy stuff about science and/or math and how the programs wouldn't recognize the different characters. Oh the teacher actually asked about word processing programs and when the capital letters wouldn't work or when. Anyways, the teacher wasn't really happy with the answer and just shook her/his head. The teacher was first some larger black lady I think and then turned to a he and was standing by me. Some guy next to me was jumping up and down saying "Mr. President, Mr. President", he did this several times. After a bit for some reason the whole class kind of collapsed around us, they all ran in and formed some sort of a circle. I assumed everyone was trying to get out of class early. For some reason I did a quick RC (hands), I saw more than 5 fingers, maybe 8. I stepped back a couple of steps and looked again, yep about 8 fingers. Lucid: I was pretty happy with this but for a split second I had a million things I wanted to do fly through my head. I then thought of the meteor task which I had played through my head a bunch of times. I flew up into the sky a little ways and looked up and imagined a meteor with a tail coming in. There it was very easily, I pulled it in and apparently I didn't will it bigger and bigger since it never got much bigger as it got closer. I guided it in and it impacted almost directly below my feet. I flew down to check it out and was not impressed with the impact. There was like a foot section of rubble and a hole in the middle. I looked in the hole and could see lava, which I thought was pretty funny. The next part is kind of a blur but I flew to the sky and it was dark all of a sudden. I brought down a couple more meteors around some people but didn't' notice the effect of them. Next thing I remember is laying down on my back on a bed in huge room like a gymnasium, with a large brick wall that I was facing. I wanted to bring some more meteors down so I summoned one. It was still small like ping pong ball size, I wanted them bigger. I concentrated and used my 'magic hands' to try to get them bigger. after a few attempts they were baseball sized and after a few more they got to be about basket ball sized. The issue at this point was they were no longer flying through the wall and the floor. The meteors were more like rolling through the already made hold and just pushing their way through, to make matters worse they turned into big basket balls, orange with black lines. I shouted 'fire' and they ignited again but didn't fly. I stood up from the bed and wanted to jump through the ceiling, I did some sort of jumping backflip round house maneuver and would up on the level above where I was. I remember there were a couple DCs there but not much about the scene, I thought of waking and I did.

Date: 6/24/14 Time Slept: 12:15 am to 7:00 am Dream Quality/Recall Upon Waking: Average vividness, clear recall Sleep Schedule: irregular, getting on schedule, sleeping at least 8 hrs Pre-Bed: Looking movie and trying yoga nidra CD Waking Up: at 3am going back to sleep 315am, waking up 7am. Ok with clear recalls. Number of dreams to recall: 1 Summer camp I am at an kind of university summer camp, we have different activities during the day, including going to gym etc. My girlfriend is there also and she have 2 big german shepherd. Many people at the camp are vegetarian and are angry because the dogs are killing the hens and eating meat. They make a meeting with my girlfriend to stop that, i am at the meeting, and i tell them that thats its crazy you can not convert to vegetarian those dogs. In the same dream we have many friends and we are having a kind of party reunion, there there isa blond beautiful rich girl that is hitting on me, even if she knows that i have girlfriend, suddenly we are at her room with other friends and she is showing a lll the good stuff that she have, nice golf clubes, clothes, earring, etc. Then we are at her bmw convertible and she is showing me all that. I feel like, wow she also have a Bmw, but i am not impress since i have the same wealth. In another episode of that dream i am showing a glock 45 to a guy, nothing remarkable with that.
1. [Non Lucid] [Long] It started with me in china at a train station asking this security woman when the next train is (A train was already leaving the station but going the wrong way). The train arrived and I walk inside, this train basically a Tardis, its huge inside with big shops in it. I turn right and ended up going the wrong way through all these shops with country specific flags above them, so I turned around to go back the way I came and found a British shop, I saw fruit pastels and decided I want to buy a roll so I give it to the cashier guy but he couldn't find a price tag on it, I grabbed them from him and took a look myself to find there is in fact no price tag, he eventually says 367, this confused me as I cant pay such a high price as that's just ridiculous, I mean they're just fruit pastels for fuck sake!! I'm stood holding the fruit pastels and all of a sudden this scary monster guy comes in, I just tried not to move in hope he won't see me and it seemed to work, he then scattered rocks on the ground and his pet MUTHAFUCKIN scary squid tentacle thing came in surrounding us, it was black and had glowing green dots going down the side of the thin tentacles, I moved slightly and the dots turned yellow then red and it made a ringing sound to alert its owner (also the rocks on the floor glow green too, they also turned yellow then red), I moved again and the same thing happened...the thing and its owner eventually left. I came up with a plan to just fuckin leg it down the corridor behind us into a hole at the end to escape (its not a train any-more by the way), as we run the rocks start flashing and ringing alerting the monster and its tentacle thing, we jump down the hole at the end into a room with a few doors, we go into 1 which is a dead end...when I went to open the door it floated off and vanished, we eventually find an elevator and escape.
Pizza NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I´m in a flat with a buddy of mine. It looks like we ordered pizza and drank some beers. As we go downstairs we meet another pizza guy with another pizza for us. We tell him he can come to a party with us. We´re about to get into the pizza guy´s car when the first pizza guy comes back and tells us we still owe him a euro. We put the pizzas in the car and i look in my pockets if i have any money on me. I find a wrinkled 10€ bill in my pocket but he doesn´t have any change. We´re in a big street so i figure there must be some stores near to get some change. I go into something that looks like a wine store and ask the lady at the counter i she could change the money. She takes out two 50ct coins and a 5ct coin and gives me a coupon for the rest. When i ask her for the whole amount she refuses so i ask for my bill back. She gives it to me and continues cutting some cheese. I go outside and try to find a store when i pass a little stand/booth with some very pretty ladys inside. I ask the one to change the bill and she´s happy to help. (Since my friend had an american buddy staying at his house and we watched GoT together last night my dream was in english again). She says "sure, of course" and hands me my change. She smiles and i thank her. We keep walking and for some reason our car is right next to us despite us walking a couple yards.
I remember many Elites, from Halo. They seem to have invaded Earth. There was one in particular with blue armor that was focused on a lot. I guess he was the main character. He was talking about eating humans and such. His bottom left mandible also started talking. The elite said, "I can't eat all those humans," or something like that. The mandible then said, "But I can." I then remember a screen of EUIV where the Elites were taking over all of Europe during the Early Modern Era. They seemed to be the color of Tuscany. After that, I remember a sort of elite (Sangheili) party at a mansion somewhere. Maybe it was a pun on elite, because it was also during the Early Modern Era. I saw some sangheilis talking to each other. They were talking about eating humans, also.
Thieves Guild NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I join a thieves guild with two of my friends. As we´re walking through the city we see a nice spot and decide to take a quick break. We sit down and start a bbq. I leave the place to get a clear head, when one of my "brothers" comes and asks me if i want a piece of the grilled duck. I refuse and go back to the guys. Now the setting is venice and i look over to a nice bridge. I see my dad and my grandpa who both wave at me. I try to make them stop by putting my finger on my lips, so they don´t accidentally reveal our position to the guards. For some reason i believe being a full member of the thieves guild is gonna turn me into a shape shifter and i will be able to turn myself into a duck. (I might be playing to much Skyrim lately ). Suddenly we´re being chased. I run really fast and have instances were i have to swim the sewers. I take a turn right into a dark alley and stand infront of a lot of old oil barrels. I start a David Belle like Parkour escape. I get to a biig storage building. In fear i decide to climb the highest rack. When i reach the top there are a couple friends of mine waiting and chatting. They´re listening to music so i tell them to be quiet but hey don´t listen. As I´m trying to make them be quiet it occurs to me that we all might be dead. When i present my idea to the others they all agree like it´s no bigi deal. I get kinda stressed... and wake up.

I think this was the longest I've ever had, however I think I constantly slipped in and out of Lucidity in the dream. I remember saying to myself in the dream "It's been almost 24 hours," I was in Harry Potter world which was also combined with Disney world and Universal Studios. I was in a small little underpass where there were lots of toys and colorful lights, kind of like The Disney Store. There were many Hogwarts students passing by me, greeting me with "Hellos" and what not. ... I spent the majority of the time just looking around at things, being amazed, but I also wasn't focused enough. I was in a low level Lucid Dream.
June 24, 2014 I didn't remember ANY dreams from the night. That made me sad. It's understandable though, since I'm adjusting to a new sleep schedule (thank you Graduate School!) But, I did take a nap, and remember snippets of a dream: I was with at least Zukin and one other, though I don't remember who it was. The other person was driving us around in a car or an ATV of some sort. We drove through a really winding, up-and-down path through various landscapes. Part of it was through thick woods with very little light getting through the canopy, part was through an open savannah-type field, part was on a rocky ocean coast... Zukin was getting MAJORLY car-sick, so we stopped for a bit and talked to some random people that happened to be there, but I don't remember anything about what we discussed or even what kind of people or how many of them there were. Then we had to get going, because we had to drive back in time for something-or-other. We got back in the vehicle and started on the drive back: It was now dark, and the road seemed MUCH narrower than it had been before, and I began to wonder if we had accidentally taken the wrong road... But all the same landmarks were there. At some point toward the end of the dream, there was a large vehicle coming toward us. The headlights were super bright, and it was going pretty fast, but whoever was driving our vehicle didn't seem worried... Then I woke up.
I'm playing league as lee sin, and have set up my tent at toplane to shut down a ticked off vladimir. We repeatedly kill him, and he cusses up a storm in all chat every time I appear from the river. The dream shifts, and I'm playing runescape in the old wildy circa 2007, with ancients and a zammy book. I have diamond tipped rune bolts and a poisoned ddp in addition to sharks and other pots. I burst down a player in 5 hits, but as I'm collecting the loot get teleblocked. My inven button shifts to the music tab and I can't seem to find it as the mouse cursor won't follow my dream eyes. The pjer has an arma gs and takes me down before I can react. I then respawn in a small cell, with the pjer looking in on me, and crowing about he was the vlad from yesterday. * I bump into one of my fellow soccer captains at the library, but he doesn't know me and he's HUGE (already tall in real life, but I barely reach his elbow in the dream). He pushes me back and the dream fades as we begin to fight. * I have a 10 second lucid where I realize something is amiss and ask myself why? Almost reluctantly, as if the answer is obvious but I don't want to realize it, I respond and say "I'm dreaming." As comprehension dawns, I take control of my dream body and take a couple of steps forward, frantically searching for my hand so I can try and stabilize the dream. Unfortunately I get too excited, and the dream fades to black before I can get a glimpse of my surroundings. (So frustrating, I can get too excited and miss out on easy lucids just as often as I have opportunities for them, suggestions if anyone's reading?) I don't remember anything past this lucid snippet, so no way to reintroduce myself into the dream. * I'm at my grandma's house and she's complaining about arthritis. I take her hand and she screams in a horrible voice. * My dad has gotten cancer in a terminal stage, and there's much very real crying and emotion as we go together around a small plaza, saying goodbye to our friends and family
After waking up this morning I remembered 3 small dreams, throughout the day sitting at my computer mostly I got more and more bored. I felt like I was trapped in a little box, that was a moment when I saw the potential of lucid dreaming again, and so I'm back completly hooked on it. 1. Experiment gone wrong I dreamed of an evil experiment conducted by the japanese government on children ranging from 10 to 16 years old. In this experiment they wanted to test what extreme fear and panic for a prolonged period of time would cause. The experiment went like this: Inside a large abandoned warehouse completly sealed of to prevent any ambient light from getting in was a chair, placed in the middle of this giant room. The size of the warehouse is huge, 2 football-fields probably and pitch-black. Several meters above the chair is a single lamp that's very dim and only lights up a small area around the chair, it flickers and sometimes shuts of for a full minute, plunging the chair into complete darkness. In the chair the child will be restrained and given an infusion to provide nutrition and water for a week probably. A bucket under the chair would act as a toilet, there's a hole in the chair. This experiment needs 4 children to 'participate', each of them will be placed in their own warehouse. 2 of the children will be told that in one of the corners of the warehouse someone or something is lurking and will very slowly crawl towards them, to torture and eventually kill them. The other 2 children weren't told anything. Note that there isn't anything in the 4 warehouses, all the children are completly alone and there's no other being with them in the room. I didn't get all the information of this experiment by reading or hearing it, I just know because several days ago I read some creepypastas on the internet. Next I see blurry flashes of a monster that looks like something out of the film 'The thing' standing behind the children. One of the childrens head is pierced by a tentacle and the monster is using the child's body as some sort of puppet. I feel extremely stressed, like I'm one of the observers who don't know what's happening. 2. Am I greedy? My dad is really angry and shouting at me cause I ask for too many games to buy. (IRL I bought 3 on Steam cause they had high discounts and my father didn't really care.) 3. A rocket? I'm looking/flying around a large rocket standing alone in a grass field near the sea, it's dusk yet I can clearly see it.
