I realized I am condensing my DJ entries down too much recently making them a bad read so going back to a more free flowing entry here. ~610am Wake from longish LD string. Work meeting scene. The board member shouldn't need to take video. CW there. I have a headache (bleeding through from IWL?) and massage my temples. Next memory is FA caught by "record skipping" FA. I am arriving to the wake up sensation at least 3 times in quick succession each lasting about the amount of time it takes for a vinyl record to rotate once...and repeating like a skipping record! I get up out of bed happy to have received this gift in this FA. As I make my way through the house with visuals not perfect I get the partial visual of my sleep mask covering my face as I walk, and I rip it off and throw it behind me. As I get to the front door I see there is a note on an index card by the door. I pause for a moment thinking if I'm awake I don't want to open the store and leave it open or unlocked putting my family security at risk so I better RC. I start to do the finger through palm and as it shows I'm awake I realize how inconsistent that one is and just look at both my hands but focus on my left one where one of my middle two fingers was noticeably longer than IWL . I grabbed the note by the door and start to read it but then look down what looks like an apartment building hall and the note is narrated to me in what is supposed to be my wife's voice saying "today is the day to bring out the garbage."(which it is!) I float fly through multiple halls and it is completely barren so far. I quickly peek over an overlook down to the floor below me hoping to catch a DC down there but it is also barren. I fly down to the lower floor and explore a little bit finding what looks like a door to the outside and when I open it it is a bright sunny summer day. I look across a big grassy open park-like area and see a building on the other side of it with lots of DC's gathered inside but starting to come out. I dump off all my clothes feeling free and fly their way thinking about what kind of reactions I might get. I approach a couple of young women and start to interact with them telling them it's time to remove their dresses but I seem to be too much inside my head thinking about something and the visuals fade but I do not fear waking up but rather hang on for the visuals to come back. (Something I am getting better and better at and following Sageous' suggestion to avoid following the more common path back to your sleeping body-NREM thread, possibly NREM reality check thread). During this quiet time in a void I reflect on the fact that I didn't get to any competition goals. The visuals eventually come back and I soon have a vivid sunny summertime scene again but this time it seems like I'm at of family reunion. I'm looking around at all of the DC's enjoying this vivid beautiful world and I look over to my right and see my grandmother who passed away several years ago sitting down and I go to greet her. It is so wonderful to see you I tell her as we each clasped the others hands facing each other. It's so feels like her hands warm and wrinkly! (I am choking up while reliving this lucid moment while transcribing this dream!) I asked her to hold on a moment and I release her hands since I use a certain motion of my hands as part of my recall of goals. I think of my mnemonic (memory) pegs and peg number 1 brings me to time control, stopping time. I know my trusty pocket watch with amazing time control is in my right hand and I start clicking it while looking around. At first it is not doing anything very much like the very first time I used this. I eventually get the DC's to freeze in time!..and they unfreeze as I release the "clicker." I play around with it a little bit more and then think about peg number 2 and decide to skip it and go to peg number 3. Neither 2 nor 3 are part of my 3 step task anyway only peg 1 then peg 6 and 8. I grabbed a football that is being thrown around and say check this out. I punt the ball with super strength way up into the sky and out of sight! Cool! I look back over at my grandmother and just behind her and to the right is my grandfather who passed away quite a number of years ago and who I thought about last time I thought about my grandmother and how I haven't been seeing him in my dreams. This time he is there!..but he starts morphing a little bit maybe looking more like his younger self when he was a teenager and then a boy! I grasp my grandmother's hands again realizing I should have spent more time in the dream with her asking her questions I'm saying what kind of responses I might get. The dream starts to fade. I hold on again and I arrive outside of a room indoors it's a little bit dark, dimly lit. There is a young black boy in the room and I walk in there and ask him what does he represent? He only says there's someone over here and I follow him around and out of the room and sitting on the bench is a short humanoid creature that looks like a weird boy, a little bit stocky with a large-ish head with dark short thick hair and black eyes. I asked him what it represents and try not to get freaked out by his unusual appearance and I realize I can wake up if I want to but I don't remember making the decision to. Either way I wake up for good this time. I think reading a couple of dream journals of other competition participants may have helped me recognize the false awakening at the beginning. One person, I forget who, was talking about some kind of incongruity being a common dream sign as a dream tries to adjust and readjust to fit the situation. Also maybe the same person or someone else mentioned how they handled a false awakening by quickly getting up and doing an RC when normally I would try to do a motionless RC but maybe I need to be more aggressive like I was when I noticed my FA and immediately took off.
27.01.2015Ninja ambush over Pirates!! New ninja: Vegeta. New Ninja Skill: Fire Energy blasts!! (WILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I was feeling heavy vibrations in my body, and despite I was meditating, I decided to WILD since last night was not very amusing in terms of lucid dreaming. Soon, a dream formed as I found myself in San Diego, near the beach and it was a very sunny day. I felt bliss not only because I got an extra WILD out of a nap, but because the weather was so fabulous (I moved from San Diego to Galicia, Spain, and the weather here sucks) I was glad that the WILD worked easily (+5) and I took a flight (+4) to make my dream stable. The dream quality increased dramatically (+1), to a crystal clear point. I decided it could be a good idea to fly to space, and I also thought about the Pandora's box task that I failed twice. I was still flying when I saw a familiar area (Moreno Valley) so I wondered if my friend Fabian would be there. As soon as I landed, I was able to see him and I was happy that the dream incubation task worked (+15) He looked a little different from waking life, maybe older and with a little more weight. He had a bag of magic mushrooms and I asked him (+2) how was his experience with magic mushrooms. He said to me: "You will see beyond source and know this is a matrix and everything is a lie." For some reason, this shoked me and for a second, I thought I was awake, almost losing lucidity, I felt nervious for some reason and did a reality check to find a missing thumb in my right hand. I wanted to try one, as I once tried mushrooms in a dream and it felt very weird. So I ate one(+4) and suddenly the dream went super blurry and my heart raced (as soon as I placed it in my mouth) I felt like dizzy, but not in a bad way, it is a little strange to explain. I decided to fly again because I did not want to risk the dream and wake up. I flew towards the clouds and I lost vision. I felt I was a gonner, but I could still hear the sound of the sea (which is not that close to Moreno Valley) and felt the wind on my face. I tried to slowly open my eyes until I started seeing a lot of light. I knew it could not be my room so I kept opening them until I was back in the dream, with a massive clarity. I decided to fly at hight speed, I felt super blissful for some reason, so I took a big while to fly around and I believe (don't recall very well) I said something, "Yeaah... more points because this is advance flying"(+6) I was also laughing. After a while doing this, I considered into beating my own record of personal dares before Dreamer catched me up. I felt like doing something different, I rarely do naps and I had no idea really how long or short was my dream going to last. I decided to land next to a port and I saw some ships. I recalled that I could attack pirates in my dreams and score a huge amount of points. I focused in summoning Sensei in order to fight along side with him, since we were on the same team. He appeared right in front of me, but, it was like he was there already but before I could not see him, a little hard to put in words (+10) but he appeared when I wanted him to appear. I told him to fight the pirates (+7) and he said yes. He did not appear to be very talk active, but he was smiling and somehow like pumped. I also called the Nfri and he came (+3), and funny enough, he was dressed like a ninja, but with military camouflage clothing. I could not see his face but he said, "hey teammates" We flew to a boat. It looked more like a yatch, nothing close to a pirate ship, but I pretended that dolphin and anotherdreamer were in there. Lucky me! I could see both of them through one of the windows. I knew anotherdreamer because he was holding a photo or something that looked like Dreamer (+5) and then, dolphin was dressed like in a vacation suit with a green dolphin on his shirt (+3) and he was making dolphin noises instead of talking. I could not see more pirates, so I said to Sensei and Nfri, "Let' throw energy blasts at them." Suddenly, Vegeta came out of the blue, he had the Majin symbol but for some reason, during the dream I interpreted it like it was a ninja symbol. Vegeta thew a big energy blast and suddenly, a submarine alarm starte to sound (what the heck...) and then I tried to throw an energy blast myself, without success. I then intended to manipulate the element of fire, because my hands are always very warm in waking life. At first nothing happen, but then a thick blast of fire came out of my hand (+8)and i hit a big own that was hanging around there. The owl got pissed and morphed into blobularwindmil (I recall she had an owl in her avatar when I read her first DJ entry) and she started to throw some black stuff at me, even though they hit me, I did not feel pain, just like a small push. I then saw Sensei pulling out a very large sword, very long, something like this: And he killed dolphin, but it was not gore or anything, Dolphin just fell to the ground and after a few moments, I wasn't able to see him, so he either left or just vanished. Anotherdreamer seemed to be there, but he did not care for the battle. It was an awesome fight (+20) Vegeta seemed to have banished also, he was no where around, and same for Nfri. I could assume that they got killed (good job at killing majin vegeta haha) I remember that a pillow fight would give more points. So I grabbed a pillow and just tossed onto Anotherdreamer's face. I think Sensei (or someone else) tossed another pillow, because other pillow moved and I wasn't intending it. Anotherdreamer hitted me with one pillow also (+10) but soon the interest on the pillows were lost, as a blast came out from somewhere almost hitting me. From here, it was a little confusing, I cannot recall well what happened (I started writing this out right after my WILD) but I think the yatch exploded or something happened and somehow I got teleported to downtown somewhere, I was alone now and I wanted to got to space, but I woke up instead.
I woke up this morning at around 7am and for some reason I couldn't go back to bed. I spent about an hour just laying there thinking about some things in my life but then decided I would just let my mind go blank. I was observing the patterns that my eye lids were presenting to me and was unaware that a dream scene had appeared. I was sitting on a beach when a very energetic kid stood up and started yelling while running towards the ocean. The thought of 'hell no I'm not going in there' came about my mind. My subconscious produced a reason for not going in, rough blue waves with a giant steamboat miles out to sea. Giant meaning 50 times the size of the Titanic. Suddenly, I was in my bed. I had remembered that I was trying to go to sleep and I was thinking about a song from ODESZA that has really trippy tones to it. I was looking around my room thinking I was awake, hearing this song play extremely vibrantly all throughout my house. Then, I woke up in my actual bed. It blew my mind that I had still been dreaming. Again, I was asleep. My dream scene had been in some field of some sort but jumped to being in a fast food restaurant. I had sat down with some friends in a booth when all of the sudden I just thought "this is a dream." Then I yelled, "this is a dream!" Everything became much more clear. I can't remember who was there with me, but it was a couple of friends and they were all laughing with me. I started rubbing my hands together, continually shouting "this is a dream!" Then I started doing math. "4+4 is 8, 6+6 is 12." It was like I had made up some sort of math song and I was chanting these things. There was food on my plate so I decided to try to change the food. At first it was some sort of breakfast like eggs, so I said "okay turn into wings" and waved my hand over the food. Nothing had happened the first couple of times, but then it had changed to some make-shift idea of wings on the plate which was progress for me. I had been looking around the diner when I realized I was losing the dream scene, so I focused back on my hands and rubbed them together for friction. I remember looking at my friends and thinking 'how do you tell the difference from real life and a dream? This is so real." I started to think about Inception and it freaked me out, how what if I couldn't tell what was reality and what was fake. It scared me a little. I started to spin around to stabilize the dream when it collapsed.
I got out of one of my classes early today, so I was able to take a much-needed nap. Nap time: 10:30 This was by far my cleanest WILD transition ever. I was laying on my side, noticing the vibrations and everything, when the scene went white, and I lost feeling of my bed and my blanket. "Cool, I'm already asleep." This was my first ever blank canvas - the first time I was in the void, free to visualize my own dream. I tried to synthesize a beach scene by breaking down my senses. I pictured the sea in front of me, and tried to feel the sand under my side. The scene didn't change, but I did feel like I was being pushed, like the tide was coming in around me. I tried to use that, but instead it started pushing me faster. Next thing I knew, I was flying over this large city, which looked like a Super Mario 3D Land level. I flew around the top, almost on autopilot, while there was a deep female voice overhead, talking about the world that I was entering. I finally touched down, but realized I was giant. I looked down at the little people beneath me. They surprisingly didn't mind having a massive skyscraper-tall monster looming overhead. I tried to shrink myself down. There was a large skyscraper next to me. I tried to change my perspective on it, which would change my relative size. I crouched on the ground beside it, and when I stood back up I was about half my original size. After two or three more tries, I was down to about 30 feet tall. It was close enough for me, so I took off and flew around it. I noticed I was still getting smaller, and when I landed behind it, I was back to normal size. I could've gone on to do some other dream control tasks, but I decided to try one of my own personal goals. I called out to the voice above me. "Show me my dream guide." There was a short silence, and then I heard a response. "Okay." Well that was easy. There was a sudden breeze that came from behind me. I turned around to see this brown-haired girl in the distance. I was certain this was the brown-haired girl that had been helping me in some of my previous dreams, so she had to be my dream guide. She went behind a building out of sight. I ran around the building, and found instead 5 or 6 people talking to each other, 3 of which were brown haired girls. I didn't feel like any of them were the one I was looking for, so I called out for help. "Which one is my dream guide?" There was no response from the voice in the sky. "Is it all of them?" Still nothing. I was on my own now. I walked up to them, kind of nervous for some reason. "Excuse me, this may seem like a weird question, but which one of you is my dream guide?" This girl with white-dyed hair turned to her friend. "That's cute, he thinks he has a dream guide." They all laughed and went back to talking. I proceeded to ask more questions, but they just ignored me and kept talking to each other, even when I got right up in their faces. I finally gave up, as this was going nowhere. I went off to continue the search elsewhere, when... Wake up: 11:00 am My worst nightmare. I got a call on my phone, which woke me up. I tried not to move, waited until the the call stopped, and tried to DEILD back into the dream, but after 10 minutes with no luck, I gave up. The dream was going great, too. It was super vivid and super stable, so I would've been there a while if my phone hadn't gone off. Still, this was definitely the breakthrough I needed in the competition, as I doubled my points! 1 dream: 1 pt WILD: 10 pts Flying + 1st step: 4 pts + 5 pts Unspecified Dream Control (shrinking): 3 pts Basic Summoning: 4 pts Interact with DC: 2 pts Nap total: 29 pts Competition total: 52.5 pts
I couldn't sleep well. I recall heading to the downtown district of a big city.

27.01.2015Farming points! Very low quality lucid. (WILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID WBTB - Failed (It was intended for a previous dream) (2 pts) Full Dream Recall (1 pts) [/B] Suddenly, I found myself with a massive blurry vision and I felt my body almost weightless, so I realized I was dreaming and that the WILD worked (10 pts) so I walked away from bed and decided to exit the house. I decided to take a small flight, but instead of just taking off as usual, I first levitated myself using telekinisis on myself (4 pts) and it worked fine. I kept myself floating, but I was unsure if this would be valid, so I stared at a pillow until it levitated. From here, I decided to take a flight to make my dream stable [B](1 pts) as usual. Flying was a success (4 pts) and I flew over a small town. My dream quality was pretty poor, and I did not feel I was going to be awake for a long time, plus I recalled I was WILDing around 7am, and my alarm clock could trigger soon. I decided to just farm points for this dream and not do anything hard, lol. I first imagined that Zant from the legend of Zelda would appear when I opened a door (9 pts) and he was sitting doing nothing. So much for action, my dream quality was horrible. I said, "Hey, what's up?" in order to do a small interaction (2 pts) I believe he said, "Bananas" (Okay... whatever.) I saw another room, which appeared to be an old restaurant, and one table had like nuts sitting around, or at least, they looked like nuts, so I decided to eat one (4 pts) which tasted like wet sand. Was pretty gross actually. From here, I saw one of the computers that the waiters use (it was empty) I tried to use it to score more points, but the thing did not turn on, so I guess I cannot claim points for this. I intended to fly to space and stay up there till the dream ended, but as I started to pass through the clouds, I felt myself waking up without being able to prevent awakening.

27.01.20151-27-15 Something is leeching me (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Dream Fragment (0.5 pts) Another weird dream. I had a small hole on one of my hips. They were doing some sort of liposuction while I was awake and I could see stuff coming up. Who was doing it? No idea, this is a fragment!
27.01.20151-27-15 Fragments - I am shedding (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Dream Fragment (0.5 pts) I was in some hospital I believe because my skin was falling apart from my arms. I could see like a very thin membrane of skin. I was afraid it would hurt or something.
My sleep schedule is very messed up. Other than that I seem to be in the right place. I did a good run of written autosuggestion at about 10:00 last night only to not fall asleep until after midnight. -Something to do with being chased by a giant. I was trying to climb vines on a large concrete dam to get away from him. There were plants and tropical flora everywhere as though we were in a jungle. -Edward Elric got crushed by a falling boulder and nearly died. -My mom's old laptop had cracks in the screen that were only visible if you looked at the screen from an angle.
The dream itself was about blurry dreams to make the dream vivid I had already read about in here so I used the tecnique in the dream I was looking to the sun the weather was partly cloudy the tecnique was focusing in a single point so I did it and it worked well.
I was with my 3 friends and we met up with new people their names were the same as my friends. Their faces transformed to my normal friends faces except one and he told me look at this, this only happens in dreams and I agreed but didnt do much things dream ended within seconds
I forgot to really recall my dreams during the nap I had earlier, so the only thing that I can remember is that I was trying to do something, and it was stressful. I figured I should go ahead and put down what I have.

The name "Prama Pradhami" or something A curse between two lesbians. A candle. It's too late. One or two of them has/have to go to the sea to meet the sea god. Ice floats on the sea. Going to a restaurant via a car from the seaport. Can we fit in the car? I was trying to avoid a calamity. Is it inside or outside of the condominium? NOTES: Woke up and fell asleep a few times. I tried to write what little I can remember.
Morning of January 27, 2015. Tuesday. I am in a somewhat uncomfortable dream state (likely from being overheated) and in reality am farther down on the bed than usual, somewhat in a sideways fetal position. I am mostly in muddled states of creative thought where I am trying to get my body to “rematerialize” correctly. Usually, it is only about two-thirds the correct size. I am also slightly hovering, shifting into body forms that suggest static statue forms for the most part, but sometimes distracting abstract tangents. Some of the forms are just too abstract to build on, so this will not do - I cannot exist in an “abstract body”, suggestive of human or not - I might just float around and not have full control that way. I have to live and breathe in an anatomically correct physical body. It is difficult (relative to establishing more mental clarity) and mentally laborious trying to bring all the molecules together so that I may live in my body again after it is correctly remade, sometimes floating about a foot from my bed. At one point, my body is like “The Thinker”, but on his side and half the size of my actual body. Sections of my body in one last session and attempt are still missing as I decide to abandon the process.
