    1. 2015-01-30 Comp (SCoAA) night #6: George Soros, video game, embarrassing moment

      by , 01-30-2015 at 08:48 AM
      +(f) discussing some device with some guys? (Forgot this, it was a full dream's worth of interaction just on the tip of my tongue)

      + plotting to attack George Soros who was giving personal tours of his luxurious mansion and the incredible lands around it which he had no right to buy (valuable public lands)

      I'm observing an absolutely gorgeous outdoor scene, the landscape is amazing, and huge, highly ornamented castles loom in the far distance. I see in the medium distance across a river that a boat full of people is slowly moving about. I see "George Soros" there, he has bought these lands despite their important historical significance.

      I'm discussing with a guy who seems lost about where we are on a map, we're (plotting to take back these lands from Soros?)

      + playing the "best video game" which wasn't all that fun

      I'm approaching a video game arcade, there are small boys running in and playing various game, there's a pinball game I want to play but a boy is playing it, I sit down in front of a driving game console, this is supposed to be one of the best games. I start playing it, and the graphic are fairly poor: it's a 3-d game where you drive/fly through a trench which turns, twists, and the elevation goes up and down. And large things (huge beings, other things) fall down from the top and you must avoid them. These things are called "suicide <something>s".

      + son S2 and his friends walked in on me in a personal moment, I'm mortified; KS calls me out of the blue and tells me "<name>, I love you", I think it's a prank call (from S2's friends); see son S2 in a new store, he spots me, we exchange words

      I'm sitting naked on my bed (in my childhood room? perhaps) and preparing some "personal time", when my son S2 and a few of his friends quickly walk from the next room through my room, I hear (girls?) twittering and giggling and declaring "Oh my GOD, he was NAKED!" as they pass out the door and beyond, I"m absolutely mortified, I'm trying to turn off my computer screen but it won't turn off, it's too late, the damage was done in an instant.

      I'm walking through some multi-level enclosed large stairwell I think I see S2 and his friends in the far distance on the road below. I get a call, it's a female voice, "This is KS, " (my junior high sweetheart), I'm quite surprised to be hearing from her, some more dialogue, maybe she's coming to visit?, then, "Oh, and <my name>, I love you…". This doesn't seem right. I say "You *love* me….? I think this is a prank call…OK, you can come to me, and *prove* your love". I turn to rush home since she lives nearby and will be there soon. I'm climbing/jumping up lots of stairs.

      I see up ahead my son S2 enter a store who's door is on a landing. He says/narrates "I like to visit new stores", I see him go in and look around, I walk up and crouch down under the front counter, he seems me and says "don't try to hide, I see you…" and mentions that he's not happy about his friends seeing me naked, "you could have put on a cover or something…" I in turn am not happy with him letting his friends make fun of me, I say angrily, "you could have managed the situation to stop the comments…"

    2. 1/29/15 Sensei Comp. Day 5 (nap) - BEST LUCID EVER!

      by , 01-30-2015 at 07:32 AM
      I haven’t gotten very much sleep this past week due to events and projects that require me to stay up late. So after falling asleep in my last class today, I came back to my room and decided to take a 2 hour nap – hoping for lucids, but knowing that the primary goal was rest. Little did I know that I would stumble upon the greatest lucid experience of my life.

      First, let me preface this by saying my recall grossly fell behind my dream control on this one. It was so long, that I forgot most of the scenes and events during the first part of it. I tried Dreamer’s method of just staying calm, not rushing to do tasks, and affirming to myself that this will be a long dream experience. Well, I’d say it worked pretty dang well…

      Nap Time: 5:15p

      I laid down, and almost fell asleep instantly. I had a short dream that I don’t remember before waking up. It hadn’t been very long – less than 45 minutes, since my binaural beat lasts for that long and it was still going when I woke up. I tried to lay motionless, and eventually, I started to feel like I was being pushed and pulled into the bed. At one point I tried to focus on it, but then it completely stopped. I wasn’t sure if that meant I was in the dream, but I just decided to wait it out. Eventually they came back, and next thing I knew, I was in a dream.

      Again, most of the beginning stuff is a blur. The main thing is that I repeatedly woke up and laid still. Then I felt like I was floating, followed by being pulled into the bed, which repeated until I then found myself in a dream. I must have done this at least 7 or 8 times, but since I think some of them might have just been FAs, I’ll go with the benefit of the doubt and count 5 of them. I commonly entered in this black school building, which was pretty dark on the inside. Each chained dream lasted what felt about 10 minutes. Here are a list of things I accomplished during the first part that I do remember.

      • Flew… a lot.
      • Stabilized by rubbing my hands together once - the dream was incredibly stable other than that
      • Tried to create a song that I would remember upon waking – didn’t work.
      • Did a superhuman leap through the ceiling, which I thought was one of the lucid dares for anyone – it wasn’t .
      • Received a bachelor’s degree in fine arts from some random professor – followed by a master’s 5 minutes later.
      • Almost had sex, but forwent it in order to accomplish some other tasks (maybe , maybe )

      As for the rest of the dream that I remember, I got some major things done. Here they are, in what I think is the correct order:

      I was in a larger than average dorm room. I remembered my remaining 2 steps for the 3-step task in the competition. The first was super strength, so I grabbed one of the bunk beds and hoisted it over my head. The ceilings were kind of low, so part of it phased through the ceiling. The final part was mass telekinesis. I remember thinking to myself that I’ve never actually used telekinesis in a dream at all, so this should be fun. I kind of tried to use the force on a shelf on the far side of the room, and I managed to lift a small cup of office supplies until it kind of floated in the air. I jerked my hand back, and it flew towards me so I could catch it. Easy enough. There were a couple pens and erasers in the cup. I threw the cup into the air so all of the contents spilled out, and then quickly tried to catch them in mid-air with telekinesis. I caught about 6 or 7 of them, while the rest fell to the ground. Feeling quite proud of myself, I sort of force threw the pens toward the wall, and spent a few more minutes doing random things with my new telekinesis powers, like picking up and throwing random objects around the room.

      I was at this bowling alley type place with my friend James. He apparently also knew that I was dreaming, so I told him that my next task to complete was one of my lucid dares – transform into a cat and kill a mouse. He asked how hard it was, but instead of telling him, I showed him. I quickly squatted down on all fours, and I was a black cat! My form didn’t feel very stable however, and within 5 seconds, I was back to human, just sitting on the ground like a cat. He laughed at me, but I was determined to get this thing right. I tried one more time, and this time I was able to hold my form much better. “Alright, find me a mouse.” James went behind the main counter, and within a few seconds, I saw him shoo a mouse towards my direction. It came straight to me, so I bent down quickly and grabbed it with my mouth. Its fur felt very soft on my lips, but for the most part it didn’t seem as gross as it probably was. Happy that I completed the dare, I spit out the mouse and changed back.

      Finally, I was in some alley that looked like a level from Counter Strike. James was there again, and at this point, I had already been dreaming long enough that I was certain that I had slept through my alarm and was going to be late for my meeting afterwards. I was just about to force myself to wake up, but then I remembered one of the biggest personal tasks that I wanted to complete – meet the brown-haired girl that might be my dream guide. The dream did start to destabilize, but I remained calm, looked into the sky, and basically shouted "Just give me five more minutes, and then I’ll be done." Apparently it worked, because the dream went back to normal fairly quickly. I told James to be on the lookout for a brown-haired girl. We split up to look in different parts of the streets. I tried to visualize the girl standing there, and soon enough, I turned around to find her over by a fountain, walking in almost slow motion towards me. I walked closer to find she looked a lot like Princess Jasmine from Aladdin. I asked her the question that I had been waiting to ask.


      “So, is this it? Are you my dream guide?”
      “No, but you’ll see her soon enough.”
      I was disappointed, obviously, but I kept asking. “Do you know her?”
      “In a way, yes.”
      “Can I at least get her name, so I know who to look for?”
      “Vi.” (pronounced with a long i, like the English word vie)
      “How do you spell that?”
      “V-I. It’s pretty simple.”
      “Oh yeah, I guess it is.”

      I think I asked a few more questions until the dream destabilized (maybe my 5 minutes was up). I could’ve probably DEILDed again, as I felt the sensation of floating and being pulled again, but I decided that I had accomplished enough for one dream, and I was still concerned that I missed my alarm, so I got up.

      Wake up: 7:00p

      I didn’t miss my alarm. In fact, I still had about 15 minutes until my alarm was set to go off. It was a little disappointing, but since I hadn’t expected such success, I didn’t really have any more intentions to try.

      First WILD - 10 pts
      Chain a Lucid Dream (x5) - 10 pts
      Stabilization - 1 pt
      Flying - 4 pts
      Telekenesis - 4 pts

      Full Transformation - 10 pts

    3. Visited by a Beautiful Woman - Jan 28, 2015

      by , 01-30-2015 at 07:31 AM
      Wake Back To Bed (WBTB) after 4 ½ hours of sleep. Read about lucid dreaming for a ½ hour. Said my mantras and then looked at pictures of what I wanted to dream about. Setup the pillows just right, got comfortable, and then i stayed perfectly still, while I relaxed my mind. My body went to sleep, but my mind was awake. After about 20 minutes of nothingness, except a faint glow, and the odd flashing blue and purple lights, I focussed on having a handful of pennies in my right hand. Slowly a stack of pennies appeared and I held it in my right hand. All else was black. Then I dropped the pennies, but they didn’t fall, so I grabbed them again. I kept repeating this until the pennies fell and scattered, then I reached down with both my hands and scoped them up, repeating the relaxation exercise until I slipped closer to the twilight zone. There was no sound.

      I wasn’t dreaming yet, but I was having hypnagogic imagery. The pennies disappeared and I was no longer in control over what I was seeing. A dog kennel appeared in the blackness, and it started to rotate very slowly. I relaxed and kept my mind free of thoughts, and I simply observed. The kennel faded away and dark storm clouds appear, followed by a tornado, and I started to travel around the tornado bodiless (remote viewing). It was an eerie green color, and then it quickly cross faded into an amazing panoramic of space. Flickering little stars were everywhere, then I heard a woman say, “Aren’t you scared?” and replied, “No way! This is amazing. I love it!” I then started to travel through space, and it looked like the Enterprise going warp 9.5, then space ended, and I was once again in the darkness. Suddenly huge translucent cubes started to appear, and I traveled in a straight line right through them, and they were all connected. I heard a voice say, “You shouldn’t be here because this isn’t your reality.” I said, “Let’s keep going, this is cool!” Translucent cylinders started to appear mixed in with the cubic structure, but then I slipped into a dream, and lost conscious awareness.

      I was standing in my childhood bedroom looking out the window (not lucid). The clarity was perfect, and everything was as the waking world. The big tree in the backyard had blown down, and the sky was cloudy and gray. A beautiful woman, in her 20’s, walked up behind me, and I turned to face her. I thought, “Who’s this beauty?” She had medium length, reddish, blonde hair, she was absolutely gorgeous, and her smile was stunning. We carried on some casual conversation, while I was thinking real hard about who she was, why she was in my bedroom, and why I felt like I knew her. I asked her name, but she wouldn’t tell me.

      She turned around, stacked the pillows up on my bed, and then graciously sat against them. I sat at the base of the bed and said, “You know, I think I’ve seen you before, you were in the backyard, but your hair was longer.” She said, “No, that wasn’t me!” I said, “Really?” And she replies, “Yes that wasn’t me.” I looked at her very closely and said, “Yes, I know you from somewhere.” She smiled and happily replied, “This is marvellous! We’re having a really good conversation and visit. You’re lucid right now, right?” I thought, “What is she talking about? Lucid, I’m not lucid, this isn’t a dream, and how does she know I’m a lucid dreamer? Wait a second, maybe this is a dream?” I questioningly asked her, “What, am I lucid dreaming?” After saying that, I became lucid and then instantly woke up from the pure shock of it.

    4. The Ice

      by , 01-30-2015 at 07:30 AM
      Morning of January 30, 2015. Friday.



      Ice is sometimes a positive (even blissful) presence in my dreams though in this case, it is like a destructive entity and actually seems to have “intent”. It is possibly some sort of alien “infusion” into the nature of ice, where it seeks out people and grows in a similar manner as the “creature” in the movie “The Blob”, except that it is not mobile.

      I belong to a military group that rescues people from certain locations.

      My weapon? A small transparent squirt gun. As hilarious as that sounds, and as questionable as the symbolism can be, it is me being a hero in the various scenes. I fill it up a few times when the water runs out, though the water does come out with great force and lasts a lot longer than would be possible for that size in reality (and so it goes).

      We go into what is mostly like a shopping mall during one scene but with more restaurants in one area. The ice is growing near one restaurant and people are told to evacuate. Several times in these types of scenes, I am able to use the squirt gun to “kill” (or at least melt) some of the dangerously spreading “living” ice. My gun is not as big as the team leader’s weapon, but that is to be expected. I seem to be wearing khaki skydiving gear at one point though the team leader is in darker green. At various stages, several people look at me with great respect as I save their lives by using my squirt gun (quite possibly the silliest thing I have ever written regarding dream events).

      I am not sure of the direction we are going in; it is possibly south relative to where I live in reality (in orientation based on how I am sleeping), which makes sense due to being in Australia and thus moving towards Antarctica to stop any potential new growth of the particular type of ice. However, there is a very large mound of dirt blocking our way at one point and there is apparently a dam west of it. This dam remains unseen, though. At this time, I can hear my mother-in-law yelling (but cannot see her) about random negative nonsense, including something about her last husband. I certainly do not want to go in that direction (and thus possibly see her) so instead, I move back towards the east area of the hill. I can still hear her hollering in her sociopath rants as I walk primarily northeast with two of my wife Zsuzsanna’s siblings (George and Judy).

      The nature of my dream changes. I no longer seem to be in the military’s ice-hunting group. I am just enjoying my walk past interesting buildings in an unknown neighborhood, now mostly walking back north (possibly going back home). My dream then takes on a sort of artificial “jerky” feel as we are walking; like watching a movie with too low of a frame-rate. George calls me by a wrong name (which may be “Clarity”, which is similar to part of my middle name). I do not say anything when he does this.

    5. Surprise OBE

      by , 01-30-2015 at 06:12 AM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      #406 - OBE - 5:52AM

      I do a quick WBTB at 3:00AM to have some coffee prepared with 1tbs of ground in a small french press.

      I wake from some dream about ice turning into chopped nuts in the blender. I move a bit but catch myself and lay still focusing on body relaxation. After an unknown amount of time, I feel really wide awake and wonder if it's close to the alarm going off. I sit up to check my alarm. I see that I have set it for 6:10am and it's 5:53am. I decide I may as well get up and do my morning meditation, but as soon as I get up something crazy happens. I simultaneously hear a loud ripping, gasping sound that I think comes from my wife and recognize that familiar OBE/dream body feeling. The sound startles me and I realize I must have just had a false awakening. This sends me back into my body, but I quickly recover. I get up, but can only float around the room. Then, I stop a second. Feel normal and think that I may have woke up, but when I move I realize I'm still floating someplace to the right of my bed. I decide I may as well enjoy the sensation of weightlessness and begin to kick off walls and objects in my room.

      After some seconds of this, I think maybe I can teleport if I focus on a place to be. The first thing that comes to mind is a field of flowers. I start singing, "I want to be in a field of flowers... a field of flowers... a field of flowers. I want to be in a field of flooooweerrs." Suddenly, I an standing up right in the room. I'm disappointed I didn't teleport but at least I have some solid footing. I see a light is on someplace in the house and quickly discover that it's the kitchen. I stand there looking around but everything is blurry. I try to focus my vision but end up opening one of my physical eyes and waking up.


      Oddly enough I finished typing this on my device at 6:10
    6. I decided to go to the light

      by , 01-30-2015 at 04:55 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I took a jeep to the mall. Or did I miss the jeep? It's lunchtime so I'm hoping the library/bookstore is empty of people. I went inside. I saw that Jollibee is closed. I was next to the escalator.

      I was on the second floor or something. It was a school building and everything is dark. There are zombies. There are also sadistic humans who capture others to torture or feed to zombies. I watched the masked human attack a zombie and a captured human. I slipped away silently. I went to the ground floor. I saw a room with the lights on. It was night. I had a voice in my head that asked what choice should I take, like in a video game.

      I decided to go to the light.

      I went inside and saw a boy and a girl, either teenagers or young adults. They're siblings. They seem nonchalant, as if they're not worried of zombies or sadistic humans roaming around. I somehow knew they had another person out in the grounds. I kinda showed them I'm no threat and they seem to accept me, but the other guy who went in is not so sure about me. He looks rugged, and he has a shotgun. He asked me if I have useful information. I told them some stuff (can't remember) and he said they're too generic. He told me to go out and find some useful information.

      I was out in the night on the field. Some light. I saw one zombie and stayed out of its way. Then I saw the boy... fighting? Or is he leading the zombie away? Then I turned back and saw that there's a zombie slowly approaching me. I jumped over the fence.

      It's morning, or at least daytime. I was looking at a beat-up van. The setting looks... suburban-western. The trio are going to the big city or something. I asked where exactly we can find gas. I had a car but it ran out of gas. Somehow, I ended up joining them in their van. I saw a scene of me taking the bus and mom saying bye, as if I'm just going to the city for a visit and there's no zombie apocalypse.

      I was watching a 2-D scene of "us" running from left to right of my vision, cartoonish. We jumped on a bus that's on a boat. Then we jumped over to the pier. The other person needed help being pulled up. I thought of arm training for pushing up the wall and saw Ivan F stretching his arms.

    7. Too Soft/Spun Around

      by , 01-30-2015 at 04:00 AM
      I was thinking about talking to Eye on my bed. As I was thinking about him and trying to dream about him, a portal slowly appeared. Eye came out of the portal and he started to tell me that his friends thought he was being too soft on me so he would have to change that. I didn't like what he said so i hugged him. I wanted Eye to stop messing with me and to just be the same Eye I knew before. After that he took my hand and led me into a kitchen. I opened the fridge and as i was looking Eye took out a ice-cream. He opened it and it was rainbow flavored. We ate some together than i woke up


      Spun Around

      I was inside my house with my family. My brother was ringing the doorbell so i went to answer it. After that somehow we ended up inside a place where there was a party going on. I saw a guy selling bread and frosting and ate some. Than i sat down next to a crowd of people. A boy with blonde hair started to call me to sit next to him. I didn't know him and thought he just wanted to make fun of me. I decided to sit next to him anyways. But the moment i sat down him and others picked me up and flung me around in the air. It felt like i just kept going round and round non stop. When i fell they laughed. The scenery was changing into a bowling alley and i began looking for the people who spun me. A man on his knees asked me to forgive him for telling them to do what they did. The only reason he told them was because he was very poor. I hit him with a empty water bottle saying that what he did was unacceptable.

      The next thing i recall is i appeared in a room where a boy was begging me and two other kids to burn ourselves with fire so we could rot together. We said no than someone made him fall and he began to burn till he dissapeared. I woke up after that.

    8. le spatula

      by , 01-30-2015 at 03:44 AM (Zukin's Dream Journal! <3)
      I had a dream last night that I was in a nightgown running down a street laughing maniacally wielding a spatula. I think I was on my way to kill someone with said spatula.

      Some dude on the street was like, "hey...you okay??" and started following me in concern lol.

      Well I sort of totally forgot to whose house I was going, and stood there for a moment completely confused. Not even surprised though, this is normal for me. Just to suddenly forget where I'm going and what I'm doing and what I was thinking. It's some crazy men in black shit.

      Well I still couldn't figure out where I was going, but I couldn't let this guy down now. He followed me here like I was some sort of escaped mental patient. Heh. The show must go on!

      Since I didn't know where I was going I was at a bit of a loss here, but when I turned around there were three men REALLY CONVENIENTLY tied up and laying on the curb.

      I didn't know what the hell I was supposed to do with this spatula, but hey, anything is a weapon if you're crazy enough. Blood splatter!

      So yep, Zukin + spatula = blooood.

    9. Grandmother in a field.

      by , 01-30-2015 at 12:20 AM
      I was walking down town to buy something and I met a couple (I think they might have been in their 60's) I spoke with them but I can't remember what was said. At this point I looked to my left and saw my grandmother standing a field (she might have had her back to me) I told her we'd walk home together after I bought what I needed in town. At this point I jumped to having bought whatever I needed and I walked home with my grandmother. Now this part is pretty odd. We were looking at a fence on the way home talking about whether it would hold if zombies came, we talked about what part of the fence would be safest to stand behind.

      After this it became really fuzzy. I remember putting my jacket on and browsing a forum. I believe somebody on the forum was telling a story. I saw an cartoon avatar version of myself (I guess it was my profile?) Finally I watched (with a slanted aerial view) two women in swimwear angrily jump into a pool. At the time I had the impression they were like stones skipping across the pool. It's hard to describe how they moved, sort of erratic I guess?
      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

      This night of dreams was pretty foggy and fragmented. I don't remember much in the way of a story.
