3/2/16:
Dream 1: I was with family going to all these streets full of big houses which contain heavy metal band based houses and rides and stuff. We walked into one where a tour was happening with guitar playing in the background. There was some sort of ride in there and then we walked back out of the house. My brother got the nickname jerefin, there's more to it but I've forgotten.

Dream 2: I was trying to get my younger brother to go to school. He had disappeared so I walked outside the house trying to find him. I walked down a hill to where the train station was and I saw him at a petrol station just before that. I ran down to get him but a car pulled up with my uncle and cousin in it. The car was full up to the knees with scrambled eggs and my brother jumped straight in.

Dream 3: I was competing in some giant competition invokving running a gauntlet of arcade style games. It started off in an office where we had to run a sort of maze. I can't remember too well the specifics of the gauntlet, but I know the second last stage was in a room filled with pool tables where you had to get a ball in. The last stage after that was an arcade shooting game like time crisis. I had practiced it before so I was decent at the game, but there was this super hot girl who was a pro at it. She sidled up next to me as I was playing and seemed impressed by my ability. I got pretty nervous, but persevered.

Dream 4: Rechecking emails from coach mac over and over, trying to find out his secret for jumping higher, instead I kept on getting diet plans :/.

3 February 2016

It began at the McDonald’s by I-435. I was with woman who resembled Robin from “How I met your Mother.” I don’t remember the events preceding this; I just remember realizing that I was dreaming at some point during this dream. It was cloudy, foggy almost. Now usually when I realize that I was dreaming I almost immediately end up waking myself up and that almost happened but I did not want that. So I decided to say a prayer (I’m a Christian) asking God to help me in preserving this experience and then everything began to snap into focus. I could not get over how real this felt. How real everything felt. I took into account all of the mistakes I had made when attempting to remain lucid before and I made sure not to make those mistakes again. Robin and I then made our way to the 435 Highway and I decided to jump. The jump was higher than expected, like way higher, and when I came back down I hit the ground with a thud. The shock almost woke me up and I could feel myself slipping back out of the dream. At this point it began to feel like sort of a daydream as I was beginning to wake up and I could feel myself lying on my couch IRL. I knew that opening my eyes would finalize the end of this experience so I squeezed them shut attempting to bring this sort of daydream back into a lucid dream. It a few seconds but I was able to do it. My body fell back asleep and the dream was back in full focus. I was back in The Dream Realm.

I was still on 435 with Robin but something was different. In reality 435 is a beltway but in this dream it was a long highway that stretched for miles, maybe hundreds of miles, in just one direction. Robin and I began to fall for each other as we walked down the highway. There were no cars and I do not remember there being a median. The clouds had cleared and now it was a bright and sunny day. There was something tranquil about the whole thing. Vast rolling hills, cool air on your skin, and just the calm silence. It was really cool. Robin and I were coming up on some kind of structure. It appeared to be a series of upright tubes that protruded out of the ground like towers. I could see them past an overpass.
Now one of the tools I use to tell if I am dreaming or not is my magic watch. Every once in a while I will do a reality check IRL by checking my watch. I will press two ‘buttons’ (they’re not buttons IRL) at the top and the bottom of the face of my watch. If nothing happens (or if I’m just not wearing a watch) then I know I am not dreaming. However if the face of my watch unlatches and opens up then I know that I am dreaming. This has never failed me. Now in The Dream Realm I will use this magic watch as a bottomless storage device. When the face opens up I can reach in and pull out anything that I want. I pulled a rose out of my magic watch and offered it to Robin. Then I pulled out a chocolate, Robin was very moved by the gesture. She and I kissed and we’ll just say that things happened from there.

I ‘awoke’ on top of Dennis from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” The whole gang from the show was there laughing at us. Now I thought that I had woken up for real so I resigned into a non lucidity. At least for a short while. I don’t really remember what happened, I just remember that I was in a highway rest stop and the Dennis and I were embarrassed but we were able to laugh it off. The diner was run by a woman. I remember it was snowing outside, this only served to further solidify the idea that this was not a dream as I had gone to bed expecting a snow storm the next morning. Then I realized that things were not quite right so I checked my watch and sure enough, I was still in The Dream Realm. I was lucid again.

This was a shock to me as I had never been lucid for this long before. I turned away from the window to see that the place had gone dark. The counter was closed off and all of the blinds were shut. I was freaked out by this so I pulled a six shooter out of my magic watch. I thought about exploring the diner more but decided against it as the place kind of made me uneasy. I went outside. I was in the mountains and it was a wooded area. The snow was thick and the wind was strong. I did not know where to go from here so I asked God where I should go next. Before I knew it the wind blew me towards a pair of motorcycles. The moment I mounted one of them it was as if winter itself disappeared in the blink of an eye. All the snow just sort of evaporated and it was a clear sunny day. Again I could feel myself waking up and I fought it off. Someone had joined me on the motorcycle next to mine and we both rode off on the highway. Then the police chased after us for reasons unknown and we attempted to out run them. Now the guy who had joined me, we’ll call him Jeff, I guess was streaming this online because he kept talking to a camera. We went off road with the police hard on our tails and took dive off of a ledge. It must have been 20 foot drop. We hit the ground with a splat and I remember us both laughing as our mangled selves were lying in pools of blood. My femur was completely broken and sticking out and it hurt like hell but I was having such a good time that I was able to laugh it off. Then Jeff said to the camera, “I hope you enjoyed this segment but we gotta go now. Till next time, keep it real!” Then he said to me, “Whelp time for us to wake up. Till next time.” And he disappeared, I assumed he was another dreamer who had woken himself up (I may have been lucid but my mind wasn’t completely rational).

Then I decided it was time to wake myself up. Not because of the injury but because I just felt that it was time. I had a blast and now my time was done. As Jeff said, “Until next time.” I woke up on the couch and checked my wrist: No watch, this was real. I quickly jotted down this experience and proceeded to caress my femur for the next minute as phantom pains persisted thereafter.

I just remember doing reality checks because the scene I was in (don't remember) didn't seem like reality and so I kept doing RCs but they weren't working for some reason and then the last few worked but I wasn't aware.

I feel exhausted in the dream and I go to the shower to sleep since my bed and dream journal is there. The space is larger than usual and there's a window in the roof. It's another day already, I won't be able to sleep. My brother didn't like my decision to sleep in the shower room because then he had to sleep in my room for some reason. He has left three notes with threats, I'm not that intimidated. He has a bad handwriting and I feel sympathetic towards him. I'm able to read the threat from start to finish which is odd, usually all texts are kinda blurry. He tries to ask money from me then but I won't agree to give it to him. He looks to the first pages of my dream journal without my permission. The dream changes and I'm now in a grocery store with my family. I think we're candy shopping, for candy. My dad starts to talk to some man and then the dream hops us back into our apartment. My dad tells us hes sick with a bad disease. I ask for the name of the disease, but he won't tell me. I think he is lying that hes sick. I then try to sleep at my bed.

A force is lifting me from my bed in to the air and I realize the situation right away. My room is dark and I can see that The Grudge is standing where my trash bin usually is. I'm surprised to see her trying to help me instead of being just a regular nightmare. She uses some kind of a telekinesis ability to make me spin in the air, loosening the dark force's grab of me. She also says something weird along the lines : " You're my boyfriend and you will get a girlfriend."I don't like what she just said. She then show a quote from here, Dreamviews, that states :" You can get lucid, believe." I put my hands in the air to my sides and I stop the spinning with my intention. I'm not afraid of the Grudge even for a second. She helped me. I begin spinning again but I'm dropped to a warehouse floor by the dream. With telekinesis I push everything around me away from me and into the walls. I go into a nearby staircase where I see the Grudge for the last time in the dream. I give her a high-five and we both smile, we made it. I made it! I go outside and see an intersection of four roads. It's a brightly lit small city center. The dream seems a bit disoriented, at least the scenery seems. I rise to the air and fly for a minute or so, the next thing is that I'm in a grocery store. I go and walk past the counter and the cashier lady. We laugh at something with a fat man. I'm in a mall. A lively 30-year old woman walks towards me and I ask her to sit down with me. We sit on one of the benches.

I remember my task, maybe one from DV or my own. I whisper to her : " What are you grateful for?" and I put as much emotion into the question as possible. She starts to cry a little and she answers ( the answer doesn't quite match the question ): " Never love anyone as much as you love yourself, because when you do, love for yourself grows lesser." For some reason I feel I'm in a movie similar to Good Will Hunting because of what she said. When she answers there is Ludovico Einaudi's music playing on the background for a while. Her message seems important. I stand up and once again take off to the air. I'm suddenly at a door with my brother. I mentally prepare myself for a great battle, one that is to be set in the ancient Middle-Earth. I tell my brother : " It can be quite scary then." I know it might just be the craziest lucid experience I'll ever have if I get it right. I open the door into dark grass plains. There are some elvish soldiers here and there, a small army. My brother says: " This isn't even good." I agree, a total failure! The quality of the scenario is really bad. The forces run down into a lit enemy cave. There are a few horsemen too here and there. It feels like I'm in a B-tier video game. The last thing I remember is being behind yet another grocery store.

I can't recall anything this time.

I'm on a corridor at a grocery store and I'm walking faster than usually. I run faster because there are aggressive insects of all sorts coming from every direction. As I walk I think of some empty aquariums I saw earlier. After a minute or so zombies also start to appear from all around. I look at my shirt and something is growing on it, like spots that are duplicating. The dream changes and now it's 1am and we're at our city's main street. I'm accompanied by my brother, my old friends from elementary school and by a few new faces. It's really late compared to my usual sleep rhythm and I should go home and sleep, but I don't want to. I suggest we go get some pizza. Everyone agrees. I'm having the idea in mind that we will slice the pizzas, no way I'm eating a whole one. I also think it would be cool to go and see a movie at out local cinema that is almost always empty. We have some collectible items with us. I feel great, it's a late summer night, I'm with friends and there's not a single soul on sight besides us.

I start suspecting there's something going on as I'm in the dark in my room. I try and push my hand through the wall behind my bed without looking at it's direction and nothing stops the movement. " Ok I'm definitely dreaming."I open my window and carefully glide in the air towards the night sky. It's a bit cold. The dream changes and I'm sitting at our living room's sofa with my sister's children. They're eight and six years old, both boys. My sister is somewhere at the house and others are too. Suddenly, I notice something odd going on with the 8-year old. He has tummy on both sides of his body. I look at him perplexed and say : " Well this is weird." He replies: "Yes it is." He goes to show it his mother. Suddenly a random man wearing only a t-shirt comes from the other side of the apartment to me. He bends over and says : " Will you stick it in?" "What!? I will most definitely not!"

I'm realizing it's a dream but I don't quite "get it" yet. I float to the air and I'm gliding eight meters above the ground. The landscape is much different than usually, all the building I know have changed. I wonder where my high-school is, there's only a blue walled square building where it used to be. I see a few other people floating around, I guess they're other lucid dreamers ( I'm definitely semi-lucid). They start to follow me. Suddenly they change into anime-looking characters and they drag me down and pinch me to the ground. They stick a wide and black spear into my chest. I see a glimpse of a blue man's face who's just standing there and accepting what's happening. I appear to the other side of train tracks that go past the area where my high-school is. Some machines start appearing and I realize that they are bombs. I start beating their metal surfaces with my fists to break them so I won't get blown up. They keep appearing more and more so I take off to the sky and suddenly I'm more aware. ( This has happened a couple of times, flying straight upwards has lead me to gain more awareness.) I go back down and slide in the air near some building's rooftops and then I take off to the clouds above. As I'm near the clouds I decide to roll over so that the clouds are actually beneath me and the ground above me. Then I boost straight upwards and go all the way to the outer atmosphere. There's darkness ahead so I turn back and look down to Earth. The quality foggy so I dive back down, and try to head to New York City. I get closer and closer and houses start to appear the way they do in Google Earth. They get 3D.

I'm suddenly teleported to the surface and everything is life like, which is really nice. I feel like I'm a good spot now. I'm on a street of a quiet middle-class neighborhood. I begin stabilizing by rubbing my hands fiercely together while looking at the details of a nearby store. The quality of the dream gets a bit better, though it was really good already. I think about transforming. So I rise my hands and stand like Jesus on the cross at the middle of the street with my eyes looking up. I'm not thinking of anything particular what to transform into. I actually just want an armor, like that of Iron man's. I feel movement on my other hand and I look at it. A green titanium battle suit is completely covering it. It's made for combat. It has an "army" vibe into it, like it was made by humans in the far future. I manage to create a gun that matches the essence that of the battle suit's. The suit covers now all of my body, not only just my hand. I begin to walk the street searching for a mirror so I could look at myself. I find one at the front of one of the houses. I look at it and I look bad ass. I miss a helmet. I close my eyes and try to focus on it appearing to my head. I feel a tingling sensation on the back of my neck and titanium begins to engulf my head. It's nearly complete, but I wake up.

ME and ny friends were walking and my friend said "let's go to this house" and he knocks and we go in and there's cool stuff all over, more happened in the dream but I know how it is

Details
-it was night
-it was in another dream

Suits
Mike from Suits is talking to Paul Solof [or however you spell it]. Solof asks him why he has turned down the junior partnership. Mike makes up an excuse that he is slacking through this job. It comes easy to him and he doesn't care much about it. He takes a lot of drugs and the mandatory drug testing for junior partners would end it, so he'd rather stay in his current position.

Back for another try at Lucid Dreaming, so time to do some dream journaling again...

It's taken me a few nights to be able to remember anything at all, at last I can recall some details of last nights dreams.

I'm with someone else, doing some sort of pre-hospital medical care, but my medical bag is old and there's not much in it. I'm at my second casualty and he needs an IV drip. I get a line in but all the fluids and connectors have been used before but I have to use something so I find a bag half full of fluids - it's saline so I connect it and flush it through, there's a lot of air in the system because nothing fits, then I realise it's an odd hypotonic saline solution and stop it flowing. It's a mess.

It's the weekend and I'm at work, I can't remember too much I'm sat at a desk and a paramedic walks in and apologises for not doing too much work he was busy with something personal, I say it's ok it's not very busy anyway, I'm writing something, and we decide it's time for a break. There are several other doctor's also having a break, we talk about what are the best consulting rooms to work in.

I'm seeing patients and I decide one man needs a hole cutting into his chest, so we draw a template together. The hole is quite big, next thing we are out somewhere checking if the hole on the template is big enough, and there are several soft toys we have to make sure it's big enough for them to fit through. Then I'm getting ready to make the hole and I realise that it's way too big and it's right over the heart, and I start questioning why I'm making a big hole in someone's chest.

Now this dream had a seriously weird start. I think there was something happening before I got lucid but I don't remember it.

I was in some kinda camp close to a small creek. There were tents and some structures which I guess were placed to dry clothes or so. I had some self made "arsenic meat" with me, it was in an aluminum pot and was essentially raw meat in a clear liquid that consisted mostly or to some degree of arsenic. It smelled abhorrently chemical and I know that I accessed a Wikipedia page on arsenic via some kind of direct neural interface, no intermediate electronic device needed. On the page it talked about its psychoactive properties (not existent in real life as far as I can tell). Either I ate a piece of that or the smell alone was enough to induce said effects and I experienced visual distortions and some degree of control over these. That promptly made me lucid.

Spoiler for TL;DR: I had sex with my wife:

Though I became lucid I didn't really remember my goals or anything, instead I instinctively summoned my wife and had some forceful but pleasant sex with her, it was way shorter than in real life only a few minutes. And we were in an impossible position too. The sensation caused me to have a wet dream as well...

After that I had a FA but I did not wake up. I was in my home, and for once it was spectacularly close to my actual home, only minor details like color were off which is super rare. I was standing in the bathtub and was fiddling with a tarp that had seemingly become dirty when my wife and me had fun. I had also worried about my wife getting pregnant since we didn't use any contraception. And the tarp was mostly in the toilet... the weirdness of it all snaps me back into lucidity, I do the nose pinch RC. I go onto the bed in my bedroom, and my wife was also there, talking about something. I know I half consciously listened but since I knew it was DC I didn't pay it too much attention. I thought about trying shared dreaming but ultimately didn't try.

I jumped outside, I'm pretty sure from my balcony. I look at the sky and... it's obviously bright day from all my surroundings yet it's actually night in the sky, it's black and I see the stars.
(I only saw it in the dream but found it weird after I woke up and thought about it, this mix between night and day at the same time is new to me.)
I thought about flying up but didn't want to spent too much time in a black void, so I improvised and filled the space partially with a beautiful green nebula, it worked quite spectacularly. I fly up into the sky, aiming at the border of the nebula. I was rather disappointed to see that the night sky was only a texture several kilometers above the planet. Instead of fixing it I turn back towards earth and spin it around to take a trip to Japan. It takes me a moment to find it, and it's not a normal earth globe either but I managed. The globe was... it was still a perfect sphere and the countries had roughly the right shape but it was vastly scaled down, so that each country was only barely a large city. I entered Japan on the east in some kind of harbor and went westwards into an industrial area. I remember seeing some soldiers and then I used a weird high precision zoom interface to inspect my surroundings. I see some products and wares and eventually find and pick up a lead-pouring game, you know that Sylvester tradition thingy. Right then I'm violently yanked out of the dream and wake up.

And incidentally I realize I had this dream right on time to finish my first TotM (I had this dream only hours into February), and I didn't know the task by then either.

No dreams from last night, since I only slept for like 4 hours. Did get a nap in, however.

I immediately WILD into the dream. I'm in the main building for classes at my college. My parents and brother are here, and we’re in a long hallway. My brother is walking somewhat ahead of me, and my parents are way behind me. I notice I’m just kind of floating down the hallway, which feels pretty cool. My dad shouts something for me to tell my brother, but I can’t hear him. Besides, I’m lucid, might as well do some things. I mainly just enjoy flying around a bit, while this random woman follows me around, asking if I want to join her in private. “Not until I get some tasks done first.” (*pats dream self on the head* Good boy)

I decide to start with the basic task - look up at the sky. I see this room off to the side that looks almost like a cockpit to a plane, with a huge control panel against the wall. The windows are huge, so I go in and look outside. The sky looks an incredible shade of blue, with several clouds that look almost copied-and-pasted across the sky - it reminds me of the wallpaper in Andy’s room in Toy Story. The horizon starts to turn orange - the sun is rising. However, I can’t shake this weird feeling that something hilarious is gonna happen. Sure enough, as the yellow circle rises up, inside is Michael Jackson dancing to Beat It, with all his backup dancers barely visible in the background. Immediately I can hear the music start up, and I find it funny. Before I even realize what’s happening, I’m dancing along with the music, doing pretty much all the choreography from the music video. (*smacks dream self on the back of the head* Dude, what the heck?)

As I do this one spin move, I realize that I should get back to doing stuff, so I instead continue to spin a bit to stabilize the dream. Unfortunately, it seems to have the opposite effect, and I wake up. I almost manage to DEILD back into it, but my roommate decided to watch YouTube videos on his big speakers, which jolted me awake when they fired up.

Kind of a fragment to start off. I am at a fancy Taco Bell, but I can't decide what I want off the menu, which makes the manager really angry for some reason.

Next, I'm at a band concert at my old high school, with my old band director leading the band. I'm in the audience with the rest of the students, who seem incredibly uninterested in the concert - they're even taking while the music is playing. Speaking of music, the band's sound is mainly done from an audio recording, and the actual band is just playing over it - the band version of “lip-syncing”. I give up on paying attention, and start a conversation with one of my friends next to me, at one point talking about DreamViews. The song finally ends, and the director says a few words. During this, there's some glitch in time, and I go back like 10 seconds, listening to him say the same words again. He even notices me do it, and after his words catch up to where he was, he laughs that I just had to experience it a second time.

I had a time slot to take a nap after my first class, so I did. I WILDed into my dorm room, and jump down from my bed. I try to plug my nose and do an RC - it kinda works, but my nose is really clogged with snot, almost like I’m sick. However, it’s good enough, so I continue. I try to think of one of the TotMs, but I can't quite remember. I figure one has something to do with a DC, so I expect my roommate to walk in the door. I open the door, and both roommates walk in and immediately jump in their beds. I for some reason decide to tell them I'm dreaming, but they don't seem interested. I try flying to convince them, but I can't quite stay up in the air, despite the assist from our rug in the middle of the room, which is acting like a trampoline. I end up bouncing until I wake up.

I end up DEILDing after what seems like a long time for a DEILD. I currently don't remember exactly where I am, but my boss is here, so I assume I am at work. I try to think of the tasks again, and for some reason remember that one of them is to eat a banana… So I go to the break room and get a banana, peel it, and eat it. Well that was easy. I wake up shortly after, upon which I wonder where I ever got the idea to eat a banana…

I am super sorry for all the late entries. They will probably always be a few days late on the weekends, or when I am on trips.
I was coming back from a short day trip yesterday, and fell asleep in their at about 10:00. I woke up at maybe 10:30 to have a soda and muddy buddy break. I went back to sleep at probably 10:30, and got back home at 1:00 after being disrupted multiple times. I tried to use that as a wbtb, but I didn't try very hard. My hectic night resulted in the worst dream recall ever. All I remember is being in Iowa and seeing different political candidates.

I am looking pictures of bettas online. I find a picture that looks like mine but then realize that it doesn't look like my at all.
I am knocking on peoples doors and find myself in somebody's house. Dear basement is Rusty, concrete, and full of water. I walked into it to grab my Eos and ice breakers.
I go into a hot tub with a man in it. Another man(husband?) comes up behind me and gets angry at me.
I am in orchestra class. My orchestra teacher s giving out thank you notes to people who gave him Christmas presents. He doesn't give one to me which makes me mad. Then I start making jokes, and a girl I absolutely DETEST starts giving credit to another girl for them. That makes me even madder.

I am walking on my neighbor's lawn. I see a guy from a commercial and wonder if I should get his autograph. I walk into my neighbors house and see my brother. He is supposed to watch their dogs, but he doesn't want to. I tell him that I can but I really don't want to. (I don't tell him that I do n't want to.) Their two dogs are eating popcorn from a bowl and I want some.
I am walking in the school hallways but they are wider and empty. I walk into the literacy room with my parents for parent teacher conferences.
A teacher is questioning a sort of stupid boy why he got nothing wring on the past few tests. He says that he didn't cheat, and the teachers believe him. The teachers tell him that when he gets married, his babies will be very smart.
