Well here's the story.

At first it was a Non-Lucid. The dream was sort of Disney style since everything was vividly virtual (sort of like Brave or Frozen graphics). We were having this family gathering in a large house just talking and fooling around and everything is kind of hazey after that.

The next dream was crazy. I woke up in a weird gas station/mechanic shop on the second floor. it was bare empty, only some supplies but no furniture or anything else. I began walking around and spotted two people I know in waking life as they were just talking about stuff...and then I hear "Truck Drive-by." Now I'm thinking, someone with guns is about to shoot the whole place from his guns. NOPE, the truck is going to drive into the place and ram everything.

I ran out the doors where they fix the cars and they was a truck that hauls gas blocking the exit. I turned around escaping through these double doors outside. My friends STILL in there for some reason I look back only to see this semi truck at the ready; about to run straight into the building. I ran down the sidewalk to also see people with large camera's...There shooting a movie?

At the same time, there is people running after me, so I start jumping and ducking these obstacles they have, basically equipment. When I get near the firetruck and firemen, I jump and began floating.
After all this time, this is where I question everything. I then hear a ominous voice that says, "Use it" and I plug my nose...I could breathe! at that moment, A fireman hands me his jacket for some reason and I take out of generosity.

I wanted to shoot lightning so I did. I just started doing that for a while to get the hang of it and using stabilization to keep it progressing. OH MY GOD, everything was colorful vivid. it wasn't hyper realistic as right now, but it was enough for me to sort of question reality. Anyways, I punched the ground and a lightning strike appears on a tree I wanted to strike. As you can tell, I was having fun. One of my goals was to project lightning lol

I looked around and notice this was all near my house, but in a different setting. I still see the movie shoot so I began running down the opposite way, I shouted Clarity and everything began to become more colorful, but only slightly clearer (I guess I need to work on making it more hyper realistic) And the dream started to take a life of it's own and made a hill out of a flat street. I rubbed my hands to keep it stabilized and I thought of spawning a girl I know's house. It kept spawning mansions instead, to which nonetheless looked beautiful. I decided to walk in one of them instead to check it out and it was all so nice and classy. I spun around one more time just to see if I can find someone inside but the dream faded out.

However a crazy part was I woke up in the first dream after the gathering was over. Everyone was laughing because I fell asleep and were leaving. Crazy part? The family gathering was being held in the same exact mansion I made and went inside of. I realized this in the end but the dream faded.

It was long but awesome. I'm excited that I broke my yearly dry spell and I want to do it again. Hopefully I can do it in a nap because I'm still tired lol. Anyways whoever views this, hope you enjoyed my little experience.

Two kids were in my living room, bugging me, and I decided to ask them what they represented. One of their responses? "I dunno, your genitals?"

I remember then eating something. (??)

I then remember leaving a house, and going to find my girlfriend, as we were doing a shared dreaming experiment. Instead, I wound up in this odd town, with two people bothering me, one was a woman who asked if I would like a cookie. I said no the first time (for some reason, I friggin' love cookies), but the second time she asked, I said yes and tried it. It was just an average chocolate chip cookie, not much to note. I didn't find my girlfriend to do the experiment, unfortunately.

There was later a false awakening, although I forget what it was.

EDIT: I remember the FA! I was essentially looking through magazines and came across pokemon stickers. My dad said not to take any stickers because we were giving those magazines away, but I took a Mime Jr and Mr. Mime sticker. I can't make this up even if I wanted to.

I feel like I'm back at school. I see a big drop with a trampoline in the middle, leading to a balcony on the other side. I really want to jump it! But I feel this would be terribly naughty, and the head teacher is just over there...

Part of me knows this is a dream and that my mind conditions the people around me, so I use the logic 'well if I do it confidently enough, then everyone else will share my confidence and everything will be okay'. I also have supreme matrix style jumping power, which I then use to launch onto the trampoline and bounce to the other side. Sweet! Head teacher seems impressed. I clear the gap back and forwards a couple more times.

I'm finishing up at some kind of fitness class in what looks like my old school hall. I'm trying to pack my bag, but it's all messed up and I keep feeling I've forgotten stuff and that everything about this bag is wrong. I eventually feel ready to leave. A guy makes a comment about the band Dream Theater, and I say excitedly "I saw them last night!". I hadn't actually, but my dream self seemed to believe he had. I wave bye as I leave and they all wave back, including what looked like a little girl trapped inside a glass jar. I briefly consider this to be a little weird, but shrug it off and continue.

I then remember that my friends Beth and Catherine were with me, but they seem to now have ran off without me. I find this quite stressful! I wander round looking and desperately trying to figure out where they could have gone. I then give up, and decide to figure out how to get home from this market town in the middle of no where I seem to be in. I calculate it will take about 2 hours of bus journey.

At the bus stop, I start messing about with the stuff in my bag again. I can't shake the feeling that there's something wrong with this bag! Where's that thing I'm looking for? And why can't I remember what on earth that thing is that I'm looking for? I then notice I'm only wearing my underwear. This bothers me slightly, but I assume there's probably a good reason for it.

I then find myself in a house. I notice my friend Lee, and then see Beth one of the girl's I was looking for! We eat spaghetti bolognese together. Some others are eating what looks like gnocchi? I start telling Beth about the lucid dream I just had...

Notes

This dream followed a lucid dream. There were many times I was potentially close to becoming lucid it seems, if I could just stop and reflect instead of explaining stuff away!

bedtime 00:00
2mg melatonin
remee on

+ a young arrogant manager is haranguing my father that he needs to update his skills, I'm listening, I feel sorry for my dad I'm trying to stand so they can't see me, I offer my dad to play some pick-up basketball to make him feel better [we've never played basketball together that I can remember], someone throws a basketball hard at another guy and hits him smack in the head

+ observing as a "playa" picks up a girl, he says "baby you so fine, what I gotta do to get in yo pants!?" he takes her to room in a building, where there are animatronic people, young men and women, they sit down at a table, and he needs to decide which ones to keep in the room and which to kick out

+ building and operating some game cabinet with (simulated?) guns, it's incredibly fun like playing an amazing video game, I'm swiveling all over the place shooting things like crazy, I notice from through a door Elijah Wood is observing me. Outdoors, I fly by a giant being of some sort. Standing on the ground in bright daylight in the street , talking animatedly and excitedly about Star Wars with people, and can't remember Harrison Ford's name, I try to remember it for a while

+ crazy tennis: I'm observing a tennis game in some club on a mini-court, I pick up a tennis ball with a quarter embedded in it (under the fuzz), I pull it out and the ball goes completely flat. I pick up another ball that has a hole in it and is flat. I see a container of balls from the group that was just playing but there gone now, I step on to the court, I'm playing against and older woman. I try to bounce-serve the ball but there is a really low net (6 feet) over the whole court that gets in the way, I try a few more times. Then I"m sort of wrestling (standing up) with the woman over position: the point of our game is to shepherd some large blobby jello-y transparent thing on the ground into a goal, the advantage goes back and forth between us for a while.

broken WBTB
eventually BTS

+ walk past woman, whisper "I'm Dreaming!" into her ear and walk on (ARGH!), I feel entirely and totally awake, she calls after me something like "Good for you!" (not sure of wording); riding on train, see kitschy old fast food store fronts passing us on the left, I think they're in amazingly good shape for being so old, sort of dark faded colors. The train stops at a restaurant, I'm there with my kids to order food, there is a bunch of food including a chocolate cake on display on tables in front of the store. I'm trying to enter the store together with my kids but a man gets in my way, we eventually enter and I see that the restaurant is not operating, they're just accepting orders at this time, I sit down with my kids to place an order

+ I'm standing on a street corner in a foreign country with 3 native guys, they're making disparaging remarks about tourists/foreigners, I plan to give foreign-language retorts to each of them. I think they could become threatening to me at any moment. A woman comes to stand in the group. I look behind me and notice the pedestrian walk signal on the crossing is green for me, so I take the opportunity to get away from the guys and hurry across the street.

On the other side up the street a bit (this seems to be the N area of B at E and H streets), I enter a restaurant. I'm looking at the dishes of food displayed on steam trays, it looks really good. I hear someone calling my name, and look back into the restaurant, unsure, they call again and I see a table of 3 guys I don't know gesturing to me, I go and sit with them. One of them claims to be a guy I know, he mentions his face being different? I don't recognize them still but I do get a good look at his face, he's about my age.

+ I return to this restaurant later, and manager at cash register says I can choose an already-prepared dish at a discount, or order a new one at full price, there are a few plates of food on the counter at the register, and I see really good looking dishes (cheese lasagna?, super juicy and cheesy and saucy) at the steam tables.

+ I'm at a table in a restaurant with friends our order hasn't arrived, I leave to get some things; in a different place I watch a young man prepare batches of skewers of meat in a special device, I put a few skewers on the grill to cook(?) a bit farther in, I'm picking up bottles of mayonnaise and drinks, return to the friends with the shopping cart, pick up some drinks and juggle them in my arms as I rejoin my friends at the table, I see that the food has already come and they finished eating already, they ate my order leaving me the wrong one. I see one of my friends hasn't finished a really good looking ground-beef burrito in red sauce so I pick the whole thing up and stuff it in my mouth. Friends are saying that they should leave me 2 orders worth of food since I had ordered two things.

I'm at a crowded party in a large sloped room with two girls. Everyone is lying casually on the floor. One girl starts kissing me. I go along with it! Is quite pleasant. The other girl is like 'my turn now!' And takes over This is less pleasant, as she is going a bit mental with her tongue. Was pretty gross actually...

The party ends, and as I am leaving I find myself staring at a girl standing on the exit stairs. She looks a bit unreal and her image seems unstable. I move my hand across my view of her and notice that she's disappearing every so often. 'Cool!' I think. I tell her something like, "wow! do you know you're disappearing?"

I then realise I'm dreaming. I look at my right hand to try and stabalize the dream. This wasn't working so well and I almost blacked out, but I managed to bring it back. I walk outside into what looks like the historical centre of a fancy town, with large open paved spaces and a Cathedral. I pay careful attention to my surroundings until all becomes vivid.

I then remember my dream plan: to summon and embrace my shadow! I recall my planned words, 'I wish to meet my shadow, the part of me in conflict'. I then look at the sky and shout out, "shadow, now!" My voice echoes dramatically, and the sky turns a bit darker. Ominous! I then look around to see if anything has changed, reminding myself that this is a dream and I now have an opportunity to practice fearlessness. I try to fly onto the roof of the Cathedral, but a force pulls me back down to the ground after a brief lift off.

I see an unnaturally tall dark and slightly bent figure down the street. 'Aha!' I think, 'this must be it!'. I walk towards it, preparing myself to face whatever it is with love and acceptance. But to my surprise, it's my dad! "Dad!" I say smiling, and put my hand on his shoulder. We walk and talk. He tells me about what he's doing with Mum at the moment in the waking world, and that all is well. I entertain wondering if any of this is actually true. Unfortunately I can't remember what he said to test it out!

Dad leads me through tight corridors and crawl spaces, like we're in the bowels of a submarine. There's an almighty force pulling me back, making it very difficult to move. I remind myself this is a dream, and that recognition makes my walking a little easier. I then suddenly find myself blacking out.

I feel around to see where I am, and realise I'm back in bed. I do a nose pinch test just in case I'm still dreaming. And I am! I feel chuffed with myself for remembering to RC It's dark and I try to turn the bedside lamp on. Doesn't work, and I remember that that's normal in dreams. I get up and go to the door. 'This is it' I think, 'my shadow is through this door'. I feel both excited and nervous.

I open the door, and a goblin like creature jumps at me! This gives me a shock, but I'm soon smiling and giving the creature a hug. "It's okay" I say, "I love you!". Looking down, the goblin has now turned into what looks like a giant microbe with a big mouth and many tiny razor sharp teeth. He's munching down on my hand, which is completely in his mouth. This feels quite uncomfortable, like intense pins and needles. But I keep smiling, reminding myself this is just a dream and this hand muncher is a part of me. "No fear", I say to it, and hold it close to me as it keeps munching away. The thought 'well I guess it's a part of me now' comes to mind, as it has now become a physical extension of my arm. I wake up wondering what it will be like to have an arm munching microbe for a hand from now on...

I was waiting my uncle on the road in the neighborhood. The weather was gray. There was nobody on the road, only some cars park. I decided to get back in the house.
.........CUTOFF of the Dream...........
I'm in the garden, I was trying to see if I don't see his car from far. I get out of the garden to go on the road. I heard the children of the neighbor shouting. The rain started to fall hard. I said to myself if I need to go back in the house. Then I saw the car arrive. My uncle gave me the key of his car so that I can park it in the garage.

Night of March 2, 2015. Monday.



An unknown dark-haired young girl is somehow driving a stagecoach. At times, it seems to be around sunset. I am not certain if I am actually “in” the old west or if it is a strange attempted reenactment of a western scene for a movie or a club. I float, seemingly disembodied, on the right side of the vehicle. The girl somehow remains hovering above the front part of the stagecoach. This is not to imply a strong wind or great speed as it sort of suggests, but a simple ability or occurrence of casually floating in the air (apparently under her own control for the most part) remaining in the same general area relative to the coach and somehow controlling the horses as well. There are no mishaps and no drama. In fact, the girl seems to be mildly amused or at least cheerful about her endeavor. At times, she seems to be a silhouette inside the stagecoach, but this is ambiguous as she is continuously the driver.

I found a good looking woman in a hallway I happened to be heading down. I decided to have sex with her, and finding her willing, I did so. At first I was a bit hesitant, because anyone could see us doing it here. It only took a second for me to realize that finding privacy in a dream is a hard thing to do, and ends up just wasting dream time. In other words, the DCs show up in the places you think are private anyway. There is a doorway next to us and I hear people in the room, so we back up a little ways out of line of sight through the doorway. That was just so we could feel a little more comfortable getting things started.

We were about a minute into it when another woman walked by up ahead of us. She glanced to her right, looking at us for a second, then as she faced forward again she smiled as if she enjoyed seeing us engaged in sex. She was walking past on the adjoining hallway up ahead where our part of the hall ended in a T. The woman's approval of us made me feel powerful and even more sexually aroused. We were able to go all the way. When we were done and the dream faded out, I woke up.

02/28/15 Most of my lucids with my Dad in them has been as if he was in a heaven of his own making This one was odd. This was more like seeing him in a state of melancholy and personal fear. He was sitting on the deck above his water garden. He was telling me about how he had gotten very sick and was afraid he may die. I did not tell him that in waking life he had died suddenly in his sleep. While we talked he was looking into a small pond/bucket and all manner of small creeping animals were dying. They had somehow got too much of something and were being poisoned. He looked up suddenly and yells "oh no, you are being swarmed by bees!' Bees start to swarm me, but I ignore them. He yells again, "the deck is burning, something was forgotten and now the fire is spreading!" I look and the deck is smoldering. Quickly the fire spreads. He just sits looking miserable. I summon a house and put out the flames. He goes back to talking about how he thinks he may be dying.

I had a dream about this giant ice rink that had been built out of snow/igloo blocks at the edge of my subdivision. Something to do with my dad, grandfather, hot cocoa and skating around the inside. It was lit up on the inside.

For some reason, I find it hard to stay invested in this NLD. It was sort of lacking content.

...

Something to do with being on a train, somehow connected to this dream. I do seem to dream about trains an awful lot given I've only ridden one a couple times in my life.


I was with a crew undergoing a manned survey of Mars. Our lander touched down not far from [One of Mars' largest volcanoes]. We had a crew of six people total. I don't recall any names, genders, etc. Just that there were six of us.

The lander came equipped with both an Ariel surveyor plane as well as a mobile analysis lab. Each one of these vehicles could hold two people, and the remaining two would stay with the lander.

I got put on the crew to fly the airplane. Now the areal surveyor was launched from some kind of rail cannon on the lander so that it would have enough speed to fly in the thin atmosphere. But when It launched us there was some kind of malfunction and we had to land asap.

I saw that we were going 411. Miles per hour? Meters per second? I don't know. I tried to gently nose the plane down. I was somehow able to see third person perspective and see that the landing gear was about to touch down in the red sand.

We touched the ground briefly before flying off a sand dune like a ramp. I saw that our speed was now 123. We hit the ground, but one of the landing gear hit a rock and we rolled over. The air surveyor was destroyed, but me and the other astronaut somehow survived.

But we had a new problem. We now only had the life support in our space suits to support us. Even if the mobile lab drove at full speed, they wouldn't be halfway to us by the time we were long dead.

I actually became a little bit lucid here, and remembered that I had the ability to summon Sir Chuggingloaf. (Read this ancient dream to know who that is.)

I don't know why I was thinking of that character, since he has only appeared one other time and it was over 10 years ago, but sure enough, I saw him fly down from the upper atmosphere. Only, in this dream, he wasn't a train, but rather a spaceship. Rather than a train gondola, he had a rocket booster and wings. He also had windows in his side.

A ramp opened up. Somehow, I was now with a large party of astronauts (10+ of them) and we were all getting inside of the flying bread spaceship. I didn't get in.

I also remember him looking like a cartoon superimposed on what had thus far been a very realistic looking dream. He smiled and flew off into the sky with everyone inside of him.

Interpretations: Any dream that involves talking bread spaceships is beyond my ability to interpret. I do seem to dream of being on Mars a lot. I wonder why that is.

Black: Non-dream
Blue: Non-lucid
Red: Lucid

Dream 1 - In a desert (LD)
I wasn't sure if this was a lucid dream at first, my recall for it was quite bad... I thought that I might have just had a dream about a lucid dream or something O_O. I was walking up a desert road, I think I looked at my hands and noticed I was dreaming, I felt that it was a really strong lucid dream (which sucked because I can't really remember it and it was early in the night so it didn't last long) which was stable and had a high amount of clarity. I decided to test my control of the area around me, at first I tried to shape a small pyramidal dune of sand into a large square/rectangle. This was extremely hard for some reason, but I was managing to slowly control the shape of the sand dune... I think I woke up shortly after this because like I said, it was quite early in the night and the dream stage didn't last long.

Dream 2 - getting tested by an eftpos machine
So I remember being in the geology department of a building, it seemed to be a white-coat kind of lab. I had bumped into another geologist who was bald or something. A time/space jump occurs and I'm in front of a eftpos machine, except it seems to be testing me, and the bald guy is going through a similar experience. I get 18/19 for my score, he gets 13/17 (didn't notice that the total amount you could earn wasn't meant to be different sadly, didn't get lucid ). His son comes up and helps him out and punches in some buttons, I don't remember much after this.

Dream 3 - Unknown
There WAS another dream that I fully remembered having between the dreams above, but I completely forgot it randomly before >_<

I’m no golfer (more a gopher), but I did manage to recognize that my game was a bit off, and beyond ridiculous, so I became lucid in this Dream Induced Lucid Dream (DILD). Here’s what happened.

An old friend and I were at a golf course in Calgary on this cloudy, fall day. I watch him tee off and make a perfect swing (Smack!), sending the ball sailing down the field. My turn! I walked up the teeing ground, stuck my tee halfway into the earth, and placed the golf ball on top. As I rose to stand, and very unexpectedly, the entire teeing ground became covered in about 3 inches of ice cubes, and my friend said, “Ah, that’s better! Now it’s nicely iced.” It was indeed nicely iced and I slipped and fell onto my side, and then I scrambled to get back up onto my feet because it was freezing cold! My golf ball was buried in ice cubes, so I leaned over to sweep the ice cubes away from my ball, but I accidently knocked the golf ball off the tee.

I dug around in the ice and found my golf ball, but now my tee was gone. I asked my friend to help me find it, and he reached down into the ice cubes and pulled out a wood screw. He said, “Here it is!”, and he threw it at my face, and it bounced off my forehead and went back into the ice cubes. That wasn’t a very nice thing to do, I thought. I dug around and soon found my gulf tee. I placed it back in the earth and placed my ball on top. I stood back up to take my swing, but then my gulf ball turned into a lawn bowling ball! I thought ‘what on Earth’ is going on around here? I kicked the bowling ball of the golf tee and placed another golf ball on top of it. I gazed down at the green, and I saw that it was behind some rolling hills, and we were surrounded by suburbia. As I swung my driver backwards, in preparation for my swing, it hit a square cement post that had magically appeared on the teeing ground. Okay, I get it! This has got to be dream! There’s no way waking life could possibly be this messed up. I’m Lucid.

My friend was hiding behind the cement post, so I peeked around the corner, and looked him right in the eyes. Now his eyes were glowing silvery blue. Not his regular eye color, and since when do people’s eyes glow? I stayed calm, and decided to hide my lucidity and investigate this dream figure, so I asked him, “How’s Erin doing (his wife)?” He then looked at the ground and started to kick the some ice cubes around with the point of his foot, and he didn’t answer me. Then I asked him how his son is doing. Still, no response. Well, I thought, this is obviously not my friend, but whatever, I’m good with it. All the ice cubes disappeared. My lucidity started to fade, so I said, “Please wait here, because I have to swirl.” I began to swirl to bring back my clarity, and dang it, he vanished. I began to think about flying as I was swirling, and not surprisingly I slowly started to rise upwards. Now I could hear the wind howling in my ears and blowing against my skin, and all was dark. I was swirling and flying at the same time. I tried to think of place that I wanted to go, once I was done swirling, so I started to call for my daughter to come, but I ended up waking instead.

02/26/15 I was deep into a lucid marathon when I decided to try something new. In the challenge thread someone asked me to ask a DC to teach me a new Dream Yoga technique. I was not sure how well it would work, but in an earlier dream had asked the youngest (dark hair) of the 3 women, and now a thought came on me while we were hanging out in a hotel swimming pool. She did not use words, but made me know "here is your new technique."

I looked over at the stairs and remembered that a woman had walked down them (that never happened but the same imagery of a remembered event filled the background of my thought, like a normal memory would in waking life). The exact thing I was remembering happened, and a woman came walking out of a room and down the steps.

A thought projected "Now you do it"

I decided that she 'had' turned around and went back up the stairs and into the room.. I remembered that this had already happened. The image formed in the same way as waking memory of a real event. The female DC stopped in her tracks, turned around, and walked up thge stairs, and into the room.

I zipped like The Flash, up the stairs and into the room. She was not in the room and two FBI types came to the door and say they are going to arrest me. OK, I will see what develops instead of trying any control here, for fun. "arrest me for what?" "a female rugby player told us you had sex with her and that she was unable to control her body, as if you were mentally controlling everything she did" "that is silly. Did she say I used force?" "no, she said you used mind control or magic or something" " that is just silly, we were just making out like normal, she was willing, I did nothing wrong (I am making this up, not remembering any such encounter)" "well then, we are going to arrest you for rape, because she was only 17 and you just admited to fooling around with her" "Oh that is funny, statitory?" "yep, come with us"

OK, sub-concious, that was tricky and funny, so I will play along, well played.

We go outside and they take me walking down the highway. I get bored. I used the new trick tto remember how they had got distracted and walked way ahead of me. The imagery shifts and they are now walking faster than me and getting ahead of me. I remember that a car had hit them. Nothing. I am sure I remeber that, it happened just like,,, There is the sound of a crash and a flash of lights and they are obscured in a blank part of the visual field. Close enough, now we play chase!

I took off flying and pretending like the FBI was coming. I flew around and tried a new method of flying fast that I suddenly knew (another new technique, thanks dark hair). I formed a field of energy around me that was shaped like candle flame with the point to the back. If I flared the energy it would push out behind me and have the effect of a jet engine. Eventually I hid under a radio tower and summoned a slushy and happily ate it.

Afternoon of March 1, 2015. Sunday.



I am seemingly a part of a residual memory of a scene from the “Time Tunnel” episode “One Way to the Moon” except that it is “actually” happening now and is not part of a television show. I am not directly involved in the environment though; more like maintaining a disembodied (but three-dimensional) perspective just outside of the rocket and moving along at about the same speed with it in outer space.

When the patch is needed, it is in the area where the astronauts are rather than the storage compartment (as in the actual second episode of “Time Tunnel”). A piece of a latch hook canvas is somehow manipulated to cover the hole, which is of course ridiculous since it is only a screen rather than a solid piece. The extra area of the latch hook canvas is then somehow folded over to build a second layer over the hole, which of course, is still pointless. The latch hook canvas piece moves about on its own on the outside of the rocket and is not handled by anyone. Nothing else happens and there is no major concern about the assumed lack of oxygen in the rocket now.

+(f) doing something with somebody somewhere (hah!) just….couldn't…recall

+ observing and pointing out interesting architecture on a bus ride "they don't make them like that any more!", crazy architect building; I write a fake review/article, then rewrite it with a real quote from a source

I'm riding in a (bus?), looking at a very interesting building to the left, tall, probably 30-40 stories, with a number of multi-floor ornamental "shaped" areas, with large (golden?) ornamental structures built on to it. There is a much more narrow tower immediately to the right of the building. The tower has a large open "belfry" structure. I point out this building "Hey look at that building to the left".

To the right, up towards the hills, is a glimpse of the "crazy architecture building" built by those wacky university architects.

+ (semi?) childhood home: turn down the lights in my room, go flying from parents' balcony

I'm in my room in my childhood home, I'm at the window, I realize the lights in the room are not fully turned up to I look to the light switch on the wall, see the rheostat round dial [false memory my room had a simple on/off switch], move to it and turn it up the rest of the way.

I want to go flying, I leave my room & walk down the hallway to my parent's bedroom and enter, all lights are off and it's pretty dark in there. I see some objects on the floor. I go to the door to the balcony and things get vague here, I seem a bit trapped/blocked by the curtain, I have some weird thoughts(?), but I eventually make it through to the balcony outside . To the right is a view in the distance of a bay of water with ships in it, it's dark twilight. I hear the voice of my mother to the left, down on the house's main deck, and I also hear my father's voice coming from inside the room (or approaching it). "Great," I think, I don't want them to see me flying, my opportunity may be ruined. I make a short movement towards re-entering the house but decide in a flash, "screw it, I want to fly!". So I take a quick leap into the air (I have a moment's thought about falling), and I fly/swoop down the hill, fairly low to the ground (about 6-10 feet off the ground).

As I pass the far corner of our property I hear my mother's voice back from the house saying "oh, look, there's a deer running through the front yard" (I think she has caught a glimpse of me flying and has misinterpreted it as spotting a deer). I continue flying, it is daytime, and I'm flying/gliding fairly low (6 feet-12 feet) above the ground. I'm flying through gardens with colorful large flowers like trumpet vines. I pass over some unknown woman in her garden, I think she'll see me for sure but she does not react. I continue hearing some commentary on my flight from my mother.
