I am working at an old funeral home in New Braunfels, Texas -- my old place of employment IRL. I am back on call with the other funeral directors and embalmers, rotating the nightly death calls. I am in the prep room (the place where all the embalming and cosmetic restoration goes on) talking with my co-workers and they are glad to have me back. I too am glad to be back. I am looking forward to embalming again (embalming was very relaxing and even therapeutic for me IRL). One thing keeps nagging at me: my embalming and funeral director licenses are all expired. I never renewed them after I left the industry three years ago. I now regret letting them expire. I leave the funeral home on a motorcycle. This motorcycle has manifested before in other dreams (I do not drive a motorcycle IRL). I drive out to the country to be by the water. I roll up to a gothic-style iron fence. The fence has sharp spears on the rails and it surrounds a heavily-wooded estate. The mansion of the estate is located deep within the woods somewhere. A man suddenly appears at the fence. He is a brown-skinned Latino guy who reminds me of Paco Hewlette, a Puerto Rican kid who once lived next door to me. He is the neighbor of whoever lives behind the iron gate. He invites me over to his place. I park the motorbike beside the iron gate and walk over to his house, which is right on the water. He has a dirty swimming pool in the back of his house next to the lake. He invites me into the pool. As I sit across from him in his dirty pool, I see that the water in the pool is actually crystal-clear; it only looks dirty because there are strange dark objects floating in it. I am not able to define what these "things" are, but they do not defile the water. We are safe, and the water is clean. I am very relaxed. We are drinking good beer from glass bottles and smoking Cuban cigars. I hear a noise and look over to see a city parade going down the road where I had parked my motorbike. There are all kinds of exotic animals in this parade: horses, llamas, goats, bears, elephants. The animals are dressed up in brilliant gold costumes and march down the road in obedient precision. I realize this is Paco's parade (or whatever the name of this dream character in the pool with me is). The house, the land, the gate, the animals all belong to Paco's father. There are people gathering along the sides of the road with cameras, and spectators are stopping their cars to get a glimpse of the parade. Suddenly, people are everywhere. This parade, it turns out, is a big event and it happens at this time every year. It's a famous parade, a staple of the community. Looking at all the exotic animals march down the road, I turn to my friend in the pool and say, "I guess this what you can do when you have more money than you know what to do with." Fade recall. Other isolated fragments from the night include: (1) I am with a friend walking around in the "underground district" of some unknown city. We are trying to get into a mysterious club after hours. The outer walls are made of stone, and the archway entrance resembles a Mediterranean garden (2) I am driving around the same city with a short-haired pug dog on my lap. I love the dog. He feels good and warm on my lap and he really enjoys me petting him. (3) I am in an apartment on a military base somewhere. Suddenly, from out in the distance, I hear a loud "Oorah!" as someone guns an engine and a car peels away. Marines are here on the post, apparently, and there is a party going on somewhere.

Poor recall generally. But went to bed at like 3-4am so what do you expect. Had to really dig for a long time to come up with anything. + vague situations with people + pulling into a gas station. I have a heightened awareness for a little bit where I think this may be a dream but it quickly fades. Noticing the paths out of the station and how cars are driving away + in a gym, looking at a piece of exercise equipment, wondering how it works since I don't see the usual column of weight plates. + in former adult CA home [felt like it but nothing in common with real one] (with wife?) there's not much floor room around the bed. Notice that there is a very large, cream-colored bean bag outside on a covered porch, and I'm wondering if I should bring it inside to keep it safe from the weather. I'm not too concerned since the cover is probably sufficient to keep it out of the rain.
Monday again and again i could sleep in after K. has to go to work. this time i tried lying on my back to increase chances because lets be honest my performance is pretty much a shame this comp. so yea here the lucid parts: -i seem to be in a mix of climbing room and class room. one or two people climb on this very small, maybe 3 meters high, climbing wall. there is one dude that seem to be crazy. he climbs and jumps around like a lizard. i watch him and it seems odd but fair enough people are strange. there is an instructor that starts talking something but stops in the middle and just leaves the room. all students or what stand there with no clue. i run after the instructor and feel angry. he is fast and we move thru several rooms. i tell him how stupid he is and that he just cant leave like this. he can instruct us fully and then leave because then we can practice but like this everybody is just standing around. i start noticing that i am at my old school in the aula and i pass a girl that i didnt see for years but i seem to know her. she smiles and i smile back. we only have eye contact for a second. this makes me lucid. i confirm it with a nosepinch and move on. the fact that i saw someone that i didnt saw for years in waking life sparkles my interest. i say out loud that i want to see Daniel from way earlier when i lived in a different city and went to kindergarten or elementary school. i cant even remember how he looked in waking life but i look into a specific corner and there are two guys. they turn and look at me and we both start smiling like you are really happy to see someone from your old past. i approach them and he seems familiar even tho i already in dream know that i cant confirm his look. he looks older than i remember him. maybe 15-20? we dont talk and i urge myself to not get lost in senseless semilucid stuff. so i turn around and continue. i remember the weekly task but that seems to much now. i remember totms to make points. the first one i remember is basic I: find a present under a christmastree. i turn around and i am pretty sure that a little down the hall there will be such a tree. i look thru some glass doors and already spot something that might be the tree. i start running to it and start running way faster than in waking possible but i feel like still not fast enough so i stop and try to zoom in like gab described. i try to focus the tree and see a detail more detailed i feel like the picture gets bigger and i get closer without moving. the tree is near now and i phase thru the last glass door without any effort at all or too much noticing it. it is a christmastree but i think a fake one made out of plastic. there is a table next to it and now i look for the present. there are two transparent boxes on the table that might be presents but one can see the content and it looks like something for the tree or something not interesting atleast. so i search the ground and look under the table. after some moments i notice one present and second later several more. they are flat and made out of folded napkins or something similar. i try to open one but i find more layers of napkins. after two or three i put it down and open another one. there i find money. i pick up the first again and try some more layers until i feel like i am in the middle. dont know if it is completely empty or there was a piece of plastic in it but nothing one could call a present. the picture gets black and i start rubbing my hands after noticing that i am not awake yet. a voice is talking to me and i try to think about a next good goal to continue the lucid. all i know i wake up shortly after i think because K. woke me to say bye (i had earplugs and a sleeping mask so i just turned on my side and had one nld) after a short wakening i turn back on my back and fall asleep pretty fast. -i wake up in the back of a car. i feel disoriented. the car parks on a traffic island. i feel that my head or my upper body lies pretty wide outside near the street so i crawl back inside. i feel that i have earplugs in and my sleeping mask on my head but not on my eyes. this seem to be the car of a friend F. i turn on some music or music is already playing but i turn it a little louder? there is a lot of stuff flying around in this car. because i feel so disoriented i think i took drugs the night before. i get a little nervous and i see in the backmirror that a cop is approaching the car. damnit. i remove the earplugs as good as i can but i have not only earplugs but some more small stuff in my hands. i feel thirsty. i look around and the cop is right at the drivers window. he knocks against the window and i open it and try to smile. he tells me to turn off the music and get out of the car. now that i removed the earplugs i feel like the music is pretty loud and i had the trunk open. maybe that brought the attention of the cop on me? i turn the music down and notice that it is hardmetal... stuff i dont even hear. damn it seem that i have taken drugs, this car might be full of them because its F.´s and i am parking on a traffic island... bad start for something like this. i get out of the car and really would love to drink something but i follow the cop away from my car. he tells me to stand on a line infront of him. i pass him and go to the point. i stop and ask him "here?" "no further right" i do a big step to the right "no not so far back to the left" i move back to the left. i turn around and face him and try to not move insecure and smile as sweet as i can. he shows me how i should walk the line. at the beginning it looks simple but he gets more and more strange and funny and in the end it has similarities to a robotdance. i need to smile because my optics change and his body looks a little distorted. suddenly the picture zooms out into the sky and back in and now i seem to be in the desert on a cliff. there is no cop anymore but i feel like i still have to do the line walk. i walk it and dance it and get lucid by it. the visuals change back and i am in a street again. the cop is still gone. i want to go back to my car and the that it is towed away right into an underground parking. i follow the car and i see a small checkpoint with something smiliar to a policeman inside. there is a line of cars waiting to get inside. i jump up, float over a car and dive into the next. in the millisecond i cant decide where exactly i want to be and i phase into the back or the trunk of the car and the perspective changes to 3rd person. wow nice i wanted to to this anyway. at the beginning i float over the car but i relax and manage to move into the parking lot/building without getting noticed. i pass a room where on the left side there are at least 5 cops that seem to be a little bit more hardcore than a meter made. i turn right and pass directly two more of them. i decide to want a body again and feel that i start walking again. i pass a woman that seem to restrict the entrance of the area. she looks at me but dont do anything. i think about how good it would be to be invisible but no can do... now it feels more like in prison. i stand infront of a thick door with no window. i try to phase or squeeze thru it but i seem to have a logjam. there are some guys around and one opens simply the door for me so i pass thru. now there is a dome out of glass and metal and here i can phase easily thru. the guy that opens the door follows me and is impressed "ah you are one of those guys" we walk over a thin metal pole over a river. there are a lot of cacti around. he says something like "look what a finish i can do" and he jumps into the water looking lame but without even one single droplet of water splash up. i get a little more awareness and remember my 3 step task. i want to unsummon something. i look around and see a hill full of cacti and rocks. behind there is blue sky with some clouds and sun. i wipe around at the top of the hill and want to make those cacti go so i can have a better look on the sky. it works like a charm and all thats left is the blank hill. even tho i dont move actively, just standing on the pole i notice that we move upstream. my next 3 step is mass tk. i point at some other cacti left of me and want to lift all at once. they start shaking and a lot of pollen seem to fly up but the cacti dont disroot. thats a shame. i feel like i cant concentrate appropriately because i am moving the whole time. i decide to go to the river and try again. i do a mixture of jumping, floating and shorty tying to leave my body/get 3rd person witch results in nothing but a fall into the water. i swim shortly but wake up after.
I am at a train-station. There is snow so appears to be like wintertime, but in a weird way I know I am in a warm country where winter with snow never happen. It is a dry and warm country in reality, the winter is meaningful in some way. There is someone with me, constantly behind my back and following. Its a friend. The country is a foreign place for me, a country far away, and we are both taking pictures with our cameras. I have noticed that mine has a very long lens on it, and I can zoom in very far. Its an interesting function, it takes some time for me to adjust and focus the camera. But at some point I succeed. I walk around in the train station and take photo after photo. Some are meaningless and not beautiful or interesting in any way. But every now and then I am surprised by how well a photo has turned out. I walk to another platform, where a train has arrived. People walk out of the train and there is a lot of hustling and bustling, people everywhere. Again I take a lot of photo's. The now empty train is soon going to a new place, so new people are going towards it to step inside and make their journey. People come form all corners and they even walk on the train track. It appears to be a country where a lot of people with dark hair live. I am not sure which country. I take a picture of how they walk towards and enter the train. When I look at the screen of the camera, I am utterly amazed by the beauty of the picture. Some people, people that are on the move, appear like a blur. Others are clear and colorful. I cannot explain what it looked like, it seemed a very balanced out picture. A flow of beautiful people leaving, on a journey. For some reason it has a significance that I do not fully grasp.

Starting a dream journal again. Yesterday I remembered nothing. Today small fragments. 1) Riding a motorbike, started up an incline, it was very muddyand the motorbike wouldn't get any grip, the engine was n't working, so I had to come down. 2) On a ward, looking for notes in the trolley. 3) Sitting in a hospital bed. I started to pull the curtain around but it wouldn't go all the way
Morning of January 23, 2017. Monday. I become aware of activities I must do for a movie being made that is about a wealthy German family (in Germany and on Germany’s side when the war starts) during World War II (about as far from my real-life associations as possible). I am a boy actor, probably around ten years of age. One part of the set is reminiscent of the Loomis Street house, another somewhat suggestive of the southwest Cubitis bedroom. Still another part (in the last segment) seems somewhat like the kitchen of our present home. I have no coherent familiarity with my real-life status other than during the last part of the waking events. There is a scene where I have to walk from one area in the house, go outside, and then go back into the house into a different room and look in a mirror (though the mirror curiously seems to be on an outside wall of the house that faces the backyard). I am aware that I only have a white shirt on. This does not bother me at all because I assume that all the scenes presently being filmed are from the waist up. I am satisfied with my appearance at this point. At another point, I absentmindedly enter the room that is somewhat like the southwest Cubitis bedroom. An unknown female is there and sitting on the side of a bed, apparently on a cigarette break. On the left side of her face are parallel indentations, almost like the map of where a few stream beds converge (my actual thought within my dream in this scene). She wants to be alone at this time. There is a scene where a fictional relative is going into the military at the start of the war. I am standing outside (seemingly at the south side of the Loomis Street house) between at least two adults (and clearly aware of my smaller, shorter body and status as a child actor), an unfamiliar female on my right and at least one unfamiliar male on my left. The camera is on us (filming from east of us). I feel “perfect” as I turn my head slowly to the right, to briefly acknowledge a crow in the sky behind me (which is flying north), making sure part of my left profile is filmed (for at least a second or two) and that the angle of my face at each point is “perfect”. I focus with clear intent to keep my stoic expression “perfect”. Eventually, my dream starts to lose cohesion and I am slowly more aware of at least some of my real-life history. Still, I am writing a letter to inform my sister Marilyn (deceased) that I am going to be in a Hollywood movie, indicating some of the details. In the last segment, I look in a mirror again. My face is becoming more and more unusual, almost like the classic Frankenstein monster. I have patches of green skin on the left side of my face. It is very wrinkled in that one area, though the wrinkles are in long straight vertical lines. There are what appear to be stone-like features peaking out from parts of my forehead and cheeks. The “stones” are of various colors and textures but are likely meant to be some sort of oversized acne. Eventually, I realize my left eye is bulging and I touch it to see that it is like a small plastic dome that is slightly cracked more to the left. (Oddly, I can still see clearly from it within my dream even though it is almost sealed shut.) This is because a crack in my left cheek had reached its perimeter. Losing teeth dreams have nothing on this level of dream-self cessation (which otherwise usually have no “interpretation”).
Morning of January 23, 2017. Monday. I am wandering around near an area near the shopping mall. There are a number of people who are involved in some sort of publicity relating to Godzilla and a particular store (or perhaps the entire mall). I walk through the hall of the shopping mall at one point and I am annoyed by seeing three people approaching me who are all in unusual oversized Godzilla costumes (though a few other people are in human-sized Godzilla costumes), though not really looking like any typical movie version of Godzilla. They are about twice as tall as me so I assume that they are wearing stilts and have features within their costumes for more control of the larger arms and such. They do not really regard me directly though I know they are there to annoy people with some sort of promotional gimmick. One Godzilla costume is meant to convey the idea of rocky skin (somewhat like the Thing from “Fantastic Four”). Another is a purplish color with polka dots. One has mixed elements of lion and clown, with a sort of mane that seems akin to a wide clown outfit collar. I have an uncomfortable feeling that it will be difficult to shop anywhere in the region with all these annoying promoters. There is one scene where I see someone (unknown) watching a Godzilla movie on a narrow wall between two hallways, but the man playing Godzilla is somehow directly talking to the viewer. I get the impression he can even stick his head out of the implied screen unless some sort of holographic technology is involved. (In this case, the Godzilla head is about the size of a human head, unlike the large costumes.) I wonder if the viewer is going to allow himself to be attacked or “eaten” for entertainment purposes. I later find myself in a beautiful area near a marsh, eventually within a forest with dense shrubbery. I begin to relax and explore. However, one of the people who are wearing Godzilla costumes comes to where I am, though does not find me. He looks near a large shrub but cannot see me. This time, the costume seems about three times bigger than me but the size does not bother me (and does not even seem a factor). Finally, I focus on the nature of gravity. Water seems to run uphill. This is very puzzling. Josh Holloway (the actor from “Lost”) is present. Some small rivulets of water that flow upwards on the wall form a tree-like pattern. I see something very unusual and point to it. At first, I think it might be more water moving upwards along a wall but it turns out to be the glow of the plastic wrap over a new toy cap gun still on the card and somehow stuck on the wall. Josh is also apparently annoyed by all the people in weird Godzilla costumes. Several more (unknown) people appear and we explore a large public bathroom (which may be abandoned). I look at the sink and notice water flowing upwards in the side of the basin. Later, we manage to evade a person in a Godzilla costume as he only looks around in the first section of the bathroom.

I remember a couple fragments of music themed dreams. First I was standing with a group of people playing guitars. I was playing some kind of digital guitar stick. We were all playing together. My guitar stick could sound like an acoustic guitar or an electric guitar. Later, I was talking with the female lead singer of an amateur rock band. They played an outside gig in a city and virtually no one attended. I tried to give her encouragement and suggestions. I also helped her and her band load equipment into their vehicle. Later, I believe I was riding in that same vehicle, a van. There was a commode sitting in the middle and I used it because I had to poop. But then I was embarrassed because I stunk up the van and I apologized.
I decided to keep my journal colour coded, so it's easier for me to re-read them and jump into lucid parts or parts that are somehow important. So blue is going to be lucid and red will indicate any insights or an outtake of the dreams. In my sleep today I was finally able to fully realize and complete a mental map of my own portal into a lucid dream. Not that I didn't know about it before. I always kept a mental map of it. But it was rather intuitive and I never actually tried to draw it on paper. Today however I was able to "finish" it in my dream and give it structure. So my personal portal leading to a state of lucid dreams is a particular building. It means that whenever I see it or find myself inside of it, I know I'm dreaming and thus, start lucid dreaming. I've been there a number of times and took my time to explore it. I know its every corner and every door. It's always the same and always works like a charm. It has two parts to it. It has a facade and a rear side that leads me into a reoccurring town. Its left wing leads into a state of a regular dream, meaning that if I choose to go to its left side I will always transition into another dream, usually non-lucid. It's a great way for me to escape an unwanted LD or beat/hide/run away from monsters. If I, however, choose to exit through its rear door, which is situated in the right wing of the building, I will inevitably end up in this re-occuring town. The town, just like a building, always stays the same but has a very large territory which i haven't explored fully yet. What is interesting though is that in order for me to get to its left side (i.e. regular dream exit) I need to climb a secret staircase in between the building's walls. I access that staircase through a kitchen of a restaurant on the ground floor. There is no other known way to get to the left side. Until today I didn't question why it works this way. Why does it have to be secret and located between the walls? Why is there no easier way to exit to a state of regular dream? Is it because our minds always have to have "doors" to carry us from one place into another? The building itself has about 5-6 floors, is non-residential and have numerous offices, where I see people working away. They usually do some kind of office work, using a lot of paper. The building is pretty harmless and nobody usually pays attention to me. They have a restaurant on the ground floor and a pool. There is also a scary part to this building, and I don't like it when I somehow end up in there. It has underground floors that go deep below the ground level. From the look of it, it looks like an old hotel with A LOT of similar doors. Its halls seem endless and there is always something chasing me. One time I decided to face it, and it looked like a tall human-like creature with very long hands. I don't know where the doors lead because I am afraid to open them. I tried opening a door once to runaway from that creature, and I found myself in a small room. There was a boy watching TV in that room and he was very surprised and frightened to see me. I wonder what these creatures represent and why I am scared of them. So, in my dream today I wondering in a quiet forest and was thinking about this portal. It's funny that mine looks like an office building. I also thought that our mind is a very clever thing always giving you two options to choose from: walking into a LD (in my case, it's a town) or find my way into a state of a regular dream. In 99% of time, I choose to climb the secret staircase to get to it's regular dream side if I'm ever given the choice.
Night 4: nothing remembered Points: 0 Night 5: nothing remembered Points: 0 Night 6: some remembered This night, I didn't remember much but these were the dreams I remembered. I can't even remember if I was lucid during these so I won't count points for dild, wild ext... I remember a part of the dream where I had a magic battle with wands with someone I don't remember. There was also another part of a dream where I had to transform into someone else to get past some guards. The last thing I remember is that I lost a bet and because of it, I had to shrink myself down to the size where I was the same size as a cell. Gravity didn't work as every direction I looked was up Misc dream control: 5 (Cast spell) Full transformation: 10 Misc transformation: 5 Total: 20 Night 7: career best, 11 total lucids Lucid 1: The first lucid I had was where I found myself in a room that I can only describe as a puzzle room. It was one room of many where I had to align large blocks in all of the rooms to complete the puzzle. There were slots on the ground that each block fit into. When I looked around at the room, I became lucid, no reality check. I used telekinesis to move the massive blocks into the slots. When I completed the room I was in, I possessed my friend who was in another room. Using them, I moved the blocks to the appropriate spots. After doing this for 3 rooms, I still needed to do this for one last room. Instead of possessing someone, I used an item called a portable hole. This item allows me to travel through any solid object without risking getting stuck and waking up. Using it, temporarily creates a large tunnel that I can move through. After some time, the tunnel will close and the object will be solid again. I cast this item on a wall and flew to the final room. Unlike the others, this looked like a 3D puzzle where you had to turn the room and have the blocks fall into place. I changed gravity to have the blocks fall up and then to the corner of the room where they would fall in place. Once I did that, a DC in a robe appeared and stated that I have caused a rule violation. What happens next, I forgot Phase through wall: 10 Advanced telekinesis: 10 Change gravity: 5 Mind control: 5 Fly: 5 First Dild: 10 Interact with a DC: 2 Total: 47 Lucid 2: I find myself in a lobby of some hotel. I feel relaxed and see a group of people that I normally wouldn't see. I realize that I am dreaming, no dild. I fly over to them and talk to them. I think to myself that I don't really want to complete any tasks. That is the last thing I remember. Fly: 5 Dild: 5 Interact with a DC: 2 Total: 12 Lucid 3: I find myself at a dive shop (shop that sells diving equipment). At this point, I look around and see that I'm in a sort of arena and there are people sitting around watching me. I do a RC and find I'm dreaming. I fly over to them and try to talk to them but they stay silent. I fly to the roof and try to portable hole through it. I fly through the solid steel roof but there is nothing on the other side to fly to. At this point, I lose lucidity. Dild: 5 Fly: 5 Phase through solid object: 10 Interact with a DC: 2 Total: 22 Lucid 4: I find myself on the roof of a building. I think to myself that this is a scene from the movie Star Wars. I am with a few Jedi, not anyone recognizable. I walk down the roof to find a ship. In it, I find a sith, I then look behind me and there is the emperor. I realize that there is no way this could be real and flew off into the sky. I used telekinesis to throw the space ship off the roof and flew into the sky. There was a barrier in the sky and it turned to stone. I phased through it with my portable hole but got stuck mid way and woke up. Advanced telekinesis: 10 Fully phase through solid object: 10 Fly: 5 Dild: 5 Interact with a DC: 2 Lucid 5-9: I had woken up at 6:00 am and decided to check DV. I checked out Daniel loves Chanel and decided to listen to one of his wbtb video. One of my family members was getting ready, which caused noise. I went back to bed while facing my alarm clock. I felt shaking and after a while, stillness. (I was very relaxed and tired so this wild was much easier to do than others attempts). I looked around my room and my furniture was how I set it up a few months ago. I knew that I succeeded because my bed was facing the wrong wall. I get out of my bed and fly through my door and window and go to the north of my house. I decide to go through the walls and windows of my house and exit onto the street. I fly through to the houses on the other side of the street and look through them as that usually provides some interesting results. I find that most of the houses are empty of people. I find some people getting ready but I also find some aliens in one house. I also find an apartment with 2 people from a previous dream. My family keeps waking me up though and I manage to chain another 4 very short wbtbs where I go down other directions from my house checking out what changed. On the final wbtb, I fly high into the sky and look over the neighbourhood. I fly at the speed of sound into space when I lose lucidity. First wild: 10 Advanced flying: 10 Phase through solid object: 10 4 wbtb: 8 Interact with a DC: 2 Total: 40 Lucid: 10 I find myself in some castle. Many people are in this castle and the whole thing is filled. There are spiral state cases going up and I see some people I know. I do a RC and I am lucid. I fly up the inside of the castle and find that there is a movie theatre on the inside that people are lined up to enter. After a while, I fly down and look around again. After not seeing anyone, I get on my back, point my feet at the ceiling and flip gravity for me and float looking upside down at everyone lined up. I then flip gravity again and look around. After doing that a couple times, I fly up to the roof. There is a room on the other side of the theatre that is locked. I use my portable hole and walk right through the door without unlocking it. The room I'm in is very small so I use my hands and move the walls further apart to make the room bigger. At this point, I don't remember anything after this for this specific dream. RC: 1 Interact with a DC: 2 Dild: 5 Fly: 5 Change gravity: 5 Misc dream control: 5 (changing the dimensions of the room) Total: 23 Lucid: 11 I find myself in a sort of gymnasium. I do a RC and I am lucid I look around and I find that I am with DCs that I seem to think of as friends. I look outside and find that there is a massive explosion (like a nuke) that looks a lot like what happened in the dream I scored 180 points on. As the explosion grew closer, I used my portable hole to open a portal to another parallel world where the explosion didn't happen. I walked through with my friends and it closed. The same person from the very first lucid that night showed up and said that what I did was an illegal action and I will be removed from the dream for it. I reach into my pocket and grab my key. I use telekinesis to grab him and throw him. He starts to fly after me, I open a portal and he follows me through it. I open another and keep flying through them. He continues to follow me. I then teleport behind them, use the gravity command on him so he cannot fly and is pinned to the ground. In a last ditch effort, I use my key and open a long chain of portals that connect in a strait line. I fly and accelerate to the speed of sound, spawn a large Boulder and use the key to close the portals. I then wake up.

22/1/17 Dream 1: Someone was asking me about lucid dreams I had had, i told them a story of one where I was essentially playing minecraft, I built a spaceship and flew up to the moon and fought some aliens there. (Doh!) Dream 2: I was an orphan in Mexico and found myself with a group of children who went around on the street singing traditional songs for money Dream 3: I was playing a video game sneaking around some enemies to steal some powerful artifact Fragment: Something about Count Olaf
Vague Hogwarts dream. WBTB I RC by putting my fingers through my hand. It shows I am awake. I try again by looking at my hands. I have 7 fingers! I become lucid, and remember my goal of making background music for the scene. I phase through a wall and I am in a garden. I focus on I can hear a joyful classical movement for the Haydn Cello Concerto. I teleport to Aldeterune to test it and I now hear 'Silent Woods' by Dvorak. I explore the forest in peace.

Bowl pastry I'm having a large get-together at my house. People are milling around, talking. The food is ready, so I call everyone together, give thanks, then call on Jeff to tell us more about something. He grabs a red disposable paper bowl, which has baked puff pastry doming out the top, but then realizes he's holding it up-side-down. He flips it right-side-up, then explains that it's ready to eat: just cut into it and enjoy. He cuts it open, and it looks like the puff pastry is hollow. The bowl looks to be full of gravy, and something is floating in it. Looking more closely, it looks like pretzels. That looks really weird, but I'm willing to try it, since his wife is a wonderful cook. Someone else is more cautious and asks more questions about what it has in it and whether or not he should take a laxative before trying it out. I'm surprised by the question - the meal looks like it's already greasy enough ... Inconsiderate truck I'm driving my car. I'm at a light, waiting to go straight, when a large truck comes up beside me in the left-turn lane with its right blinker on. Other cars come up behind it, wanting to turn left, and are clearly not happy about the truck blocking their way. A couple cars go around it into lanes of oncoming traffic to make their left-hand turns; one car goes around the truck to the left, then cuts in front of all of us to turn right. Through all of this, the truck just sits there. Now I'm driving next to a field, and I see something interesting. Now I'm driving around looking for a place to eat. I consider a burger place we've been to before, but someone else in the car has an objection to it. Caravan communication A group of people are spread out in a loose caravan. A guy on a bike stops at a diner for a break and gets a fax from a truck driver who's further up the road and has stopped in some kind of industrial area. Whatever's in the fax, he realizes it's important for the others in the caravan to know, so he immediately jumps back on his bike and tries to catch up with those ahead of him. Unfortunately, it's a mountain road, and he's having real difficulty. Fragment: My son wants to wrestle, but we're in the middle of doing something else.
=play guessing game with g, she gets them all I look at various objects only I can see, and ask her to say what it is. Did it ~5 times, and she got every one. This made me very excited, thinking it must be telepathy or something, till I realize, "Oh, I'm probably lucid dreaming." =look for another test, check kitchen and fridge I realize this is an opprtunity for lucid dream tests now, so I look around the kitchen, on the counters and in the fridge, for things of interest. =think of number test, get pen and write sqrt(1616) on it While looking in the fridge (I forget what was there now), I realize I should do a math test I'd been wanting to do earlier. I get a paper and pen from the right counter area, and start writing. The writing is rough, but I manage to write "sqrt(1616)" (except with the actual square-root symbol). G says the number and square-root operation themselves, but when I ask g to say it as a whole, she laughs and deflects the question. [memory gap] =approach new work area Apparently we're on some sort of work crew, and we've been assigned to collect large stones from a rocky mining cliff place. I let the others think of and implement a plan, and suprisingly they get a good system going where they have a constant, assembly-line-like setup. =swing on ropes of setup Toward the end, I decide to jump up on the ropes they set up for the miners, and then jump back--similar to what they were doing except without a purpose. I think I flew some to get as high as I did, but I may have just jumped, so I won't count it. I got scolded a little for this, but not seriously =try to give warning, but other leader talks too much Group is very pleased with quick success, but I try to warn them not to tell our supervisor or it'd mean more work or something similar. When I try to speak, however, the dc leader started talking and overrode me. =look out on cliff over ocean Now that our "work" was done, we walked over to the cliffside a few yards forward from the stone area, and looked out on a vast red and blue (from the sunset) ocean. It was beautiful and surreal, cuasing me to again stand in awe thinking of what our minds can spontaneously create. =knight guy turns into gargoyl, I tackle it, and claim its sensei I eventually turn to the other people in the group, and notice someone in knight's armor acting abnormally. I decide to cast it as another dream-view member being in a shared dream, and pick Sensei. (since he's one of the more active posters -- that and, he does anime stuff ) I watch as the knight then transitions into a gargoyle! I tackle the character to the ground, and hold him in an arm lock. "Is that you, Sensei?", I say. As I hold him, he makes struggling motions, but I keep him for a bit. "Are you a man, a beast... or a third category?", I ask him, implying "a lucid dreamer". At this he makes more violent motions, and successfully breaks out of my hold. =chase and bind gargoyle, get scared by stairs with sense of malevolence I chase after him, and yell for the others to help me capture him (and, not kill... like we'd done earlier in a fight, which I no longer remember the details of). We come and mostly surround him, and I use my hands to emit rope segments, which fly out and help bind the gargoyle in a mesh near a building. Now satisfied with this, I walk over and notice another rope that we hadn't placed there. I'm curious what it's for, so I reach down and grab it. A sound signals when I do this, and I hear something like a distant laugh. I look to the side and see that the rope leads out into a flight of shallow stairs heading down a dark hallway (inside the building). This makes me nervous, enough to actuslly attempt wake-up. =fa Well, I returned to bed, but suspected it was a false-awakening. I decided to look around, at least, in the assumed limbo state. I look at the ceiling and walls, and saw many bits of text and numbers. And the numbers were very suspicious, I thought (and said), in that they seemed to have patterns and special cases in them. For example, "0", "100", sequences of the same digit, etc. I kept looking for and pointing out these oddities for about 30 seconds, until I heard a clear voice speak a number prompt, snapping me back into the real world (as verified by that I successfully turned off my speaker and have had no transitions since). I then began recollection.

D1 - At school the children are being children (the audacity ^^). They are fed up and not doing as they are told. This dream is very realistic, usually I have random dcs mostly but this is the actual cast from my waking life. WBTB D2 -I renter the dream and see a small girl with blonde hair and a white dress. She is being collected by her father but is upset. I kneel down to tell her it will be ok. She is worried she will not be able to learn her spells. I hold her hand and send spell power into her. D3 - I see a woman walking along a dirt road, it is dark. She is my pupil and apparently I am now Hagrid. I am unsure how to train her and don't really feel qualified. I take her to the end of the pathway which has a white rectangular arch which leads into a train station entrance. I wonder if I can get to Hogwarts from any train station. I use my powers to make a platform number appear for platform 2/3. My pupil is then able to take the hogwart's express, yay! D4 - I worry about whether my house is locked up etc as I left in a hurry and send a hogwarts owl back to check. Unfortunately i'm still unsure and so make the journey home. At a train station (looks like kings cross) I get a message from my brother, it contains a ten pound note, a purple 50 and a white 10. Also there are some printed tickets stubs for something. D5 - I'm laying in bed with a woman who has her bare back to me, her long blonde hair tailing. I can see the shadows on her back lite from a small light in the room. We make out.
