    1. Huh...

      by , 01-04-2018 at 09:16 PM (An Insomniac's Dream Journal)
      Fell asleep at: 5:00 AM


      Woke up at: 1:00 PM


      Dream:
      I think I'm in a warped, dreamlike version of my school, fused with one of the houses from the colonias near my town. It's all the usual dream stuff, just me walking around, minding my own business...


      When the DC of my dead cousin shows up. And I am speechless.


      Now, I'm not gonna sugarcoat things. Even though this was an experience personal to me, I felt like it was worthy enough to be talked about. It's nothing too graphic or too sad, so stick with me.

      He's wearing a greasy looking pinstriped suit, a faded black with light gray lines. He looks unkempt, as was his style I guess. He was always the "cool" one, and often put his appearance first before anything (The man owned a leather jacket for Pete's sake).

      Immediately I start choking up. He's on the other side of a chainlink fence but manages to jump over it because he could. I think he was talking about something, but I was too preoccupied dealing with my own anxieties.

      "This is the one person I hate so much...How could he do this to us? Why does he still look so cool? How is this possible? The one person I try so hard not to emulate shows up in my dream, without MY permission? Typical. But...there are so many questions..."

      He walks around for a bit; around a twisting, almost rotten tree, and peers into a window. Excited children flood the window, and he smiles back. I get even more temperamental.

      He parkours his way up a wall, onto the roof, totally in line with his character. I think to myself:

      "What do I talk to him about? How different are we? Why the hell did you do that to us? Will I ever see you again? Can you get the heck away from me?" My fist clenches trying to hold it in, and I choke up once more, on the verge of tears.


      But I don't have any time to think.


      The children whom he had met burst out through the door, and he jumps back down to meet them. I trail them all back inside through a red door to my right.

      They're all laughing, having a good time, but I demanded an answer from him (Well, not really but you get the point) and still he had nothing left to say. The children have also done some excellent drawings and sketches on notebook paper, and I admire just how detailed it looks.

      But I clearly have had enough. I stormed out of the room and went to contemplate this situation elsewhere.

      I wind up in a big city. A parade seems to be going on in town as kids throw humongously large rubber dodgeballs at each other, cars pour in from every corner, and confetti rains down from above.

      I don't take part in the festivities, I'm too shaken to even think. In the real world, that would've been the death of me. I walk callously across each gathering of students and even snake my way through busy traffic.

      I come across a chainlink fence and think I should climb it, but thoughts of my deceased cousin crossed my mind, and I move onto something else.

      And that's when the dream ended.

    2. Possibly My First Out-Of-Body Experience

      by , 01-04-2018 at 08:38 PM
      Dream Post #3

      I had a dream that I was in this unknown kitchen with a vicious male rottweiler. He would try to bite me after charging towards me, but I would quickly jump over him. I jumped incredibly high, at one point, and landed onto the top of a refrigerator. The refrigerator was incredibly tall, so I felt safe. I sat at the top bent over because the ceiling was literally right above me, and I watched as the dog paced back and forth. At one point, I distracted the dog with some kind of toy before determining whether it was safe to jump down. The dog began acting like an innocent puppy towards me, and I pet its head.

      As I started walking, the scene changed and I was outside. Something triggered my lucidity, and I realized that I was dreaming. I was outside a house that appeared to be my own, but there was a giant hedge to the right of me and I think the driveway was black. I remember staring at this large tree and focusing in on the details of the bark. It was strange...when I looked at the bark of the tree (which was very realistic), each piece of bark would constantly change positions upon me darting my eyes around, almost as if I was looking at some illusion.

      I then found myself laying down where I actually was laying down in the real world. I instantly knew I was dreaming, and decided to get up. What was weird was that when I did, I jumped out of my "physical body" and saw "myself" sleeping on the couch. I began flying around the room until I got to a door with a window leading to my backyard. That was when I decided to try phasing through the window...and I did, but it was also strange! As soon as I put my face on the window, it began to stretch like plastic. I could feel the force of the window on my face before it suddenly snapped, and I spun outside of my house.

      I stopped myself in the air and turned around to look back through the window. That was wen I saw my mom come into the room I was sleeping in and walk towards "me" to get something off the couch. She couldn't see the "dream me" at all, even when I was hovering right next to her. I decided to see what my grandmother was doing on the second floor, and used the outside crown-molding that was around the door to catapult myself upwards. I stopped myself at my grandmother's window and looked inside her room, but the room looked way different for some reason. Everything was out of place, and the walls were white (they're pink). Grandma was in there, but I forgot what she was doing. I looked at her television and saw that she was watching one of her old crime shows.

      Usually, most of the stories I've read about an out-of-body experience stated that it was difficult to force yourself out of your "physical body", but it felt pretty easy.

      I'm in an amusement park with a few of my friends/family. I get on this rollercoaster with my sister. As we're going up the hill I realize I never put my safety bar down. I told her that and she tells me to put it on before we go down the hill. It won't budge so I hold on for dear life as we go through flips and spins.

      I remember we had some motive to overthrow the park from the leaders. We were sort of sneaking around when a manager came up to us who sort of looked like the dad of my childhood friend Thomas. I ask him how the kids are but he's onto our scheme to overthrow the park so he suspiciously follows us to the second floor. We tell him we need to go to the bathroom so we sneak into there.

      At some point I'm just in this overhead view like rollercoaster tycoon trying to decide which rides to build and then trying to build the paths to the entrances and exits but they're messed up due to the slant of the hills. There were all kinds of rollercoasters and I remember I had accidentally built 3 of the same kind right next to each other.

      Another non-lucid I'm back in college at JMU visiting my friend Kyle. I'm in our old apartment in the bathroom but it's some sort of closet. He comes in with my buddy Grayson and they're talking about drinking and smoking weed. He offers me weed but I decline because I didn't want to get messed up at the moment. There are girls with them as well. Chandni was there but wasn't wearing any pants and I couldn't recognize the other girls.
    4. One Hundred Twenty-One

      In which I'm working in a restaurant...

      I'm working in a restaurant kitchen, frying bacon. Strips of frozen bacon are stuck together on wax paper. I pick up the entire block and throw it in a skillet, then try to fry it as if it were scrambled eggs. Some of the bacon burns; most of it remains frozen and fatty.

      In which I'm searching for property...

      I'm walking through downtown Houston with a realtor. There are small 100-year-old wooden and brick single-family homes scattered between the sky scrapers. The agent tells me that Houston is one of the few cities in the world where developers built around existing homes. The houses are mostly hollowed out shells needing tons of work. I keep telling the realtor that they are out of my price range. She responds by telling me how cheap they are- 450K to 500K for prime real estate in downtown is a steal. That may be, I tell her, but I don't have that kind of money. I shrug and think that realtors are never helpful.

    5. Partial Solar eclipse - fragment ,semi lucid

      by , 01-04-2018 at 01:52 PM (Nef's dream journal)
      The dream is a messy mush , random things ,random images projections I see , a surreal pile of visions. Then It slowly starts to stabilize now I start to receive the dreamplot; soon there will be a partial solar eclipse, in about a few minutes, I am away in my car driving somewhere on a highway. My friends want me to come home and enjoy this eclipse with them but it's too late .
      Then suddenly I see a shadow break onto the athmosphere, all things are becoming darker, and I also hear a deep boom.
      I look to the left and somehow push onto the backside of the car and through the darkened glasses of of the car I see a giant sun and a giant moon crossing paths with the sun and covering one fourth of it , it was an amazing sight.
      I get semi lucid cuz the sun and the moon was so big it felt quite shocking to see.

      Dream fragment where I'm in my back yard from my old house in the woods. There's a tv there and I think I'm playing mario party with a few other people.

      I'm back in high school in the back of the school. There's a girl from my grade who I think is attractive. At some point I'm looking at her instagram and her pictures are very revealing. The back parking lot always has this weird upper platform on the left side next to the soccer field where people are standing on top, I think it's made of wood. I'm eating some sort of fruit roll up thing which I decide to hand off to someone else. I'm walking out of the parking lot towards the football stadium. That area is dark and my surroundings are getting very dark. A vehicle that seemed a little bit evil drove past me and it felt like someone riding in it was staring me down. I had a blanket or cloak around me so I wrap it tighter around my head and body.
    7. Dream - The Violent Hippo Encounter & A Change Of Heart & Family In America

      by , 01-04-2018 at 08:48 AM
      Date of Dream: THU 4 JAN - 2018



      Dream No. 257 - Separated Sections

      Dream 257 A - The Violent Hippo Encounter (Nightmare!)
      I don't remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, it was night time and I was in some area with low levels of water. I saw a raccoon in blue coming in from the distant black rooftops... It was Sly. When he was close enough to me, he hopped off a rooftop and scuttled towards me. He said hello to me and some other short sentence that I don't remember. Then I heard a thud behind me; I turned around to notice it was the fellow hippo Murray.

      At first, I thought it was just going to be a friendly encounter... I was wrong. At first, he looked normal but he started raising his voice at me. He said to get away from them and not hurt Sly. I actually tried reasoning with Murray but it didn't seem to work. He turned nasty and said he was going to kill me. Then the most awful thing happened, the dream distorted him and boy did he look ugly! His mask nearly fell off and his eyes went all wild and beady. In addition to that, his teeth turned into those as sharp as a shark and two teeth became millions.

      He was now just growling at me with all his new multiple teeth showing. I was in a panic now, constantly telling Murray to stop. No matter what I did, he was inching closer and closer to me. In the meantime, Sly walked past again lifting his blue hat off to me as a friendly gesture. The turtle Bentley was walking beside Sly and gave me a quick enthusiastic wave. While Murray was still tormenting me, Sly kept walking backwards and forwards, trying to offer friendly distractions. I get the idea that the gang really wanted to be friends with me but Murray was in paranoia mode and because I was a little girl to them, he thought that making me his dinner would really made sure I never went back for a second attempt.

      Back to the dream; I did see one instance of the police fox Carmelita patrolling the rooftops but it was very brief. Now things were getting bad and Murray was getting scarier and scarier. He was uncomfortably close and just as he was about to open his mouth to stuff me into it; I was forced to wake up.

      Dream 257 B - A Change Of Heart
      I started off in some unknown area but just like in Dream A, there was a very low level of water where I was; even if it was just a centimetre deep. I turned around and noticed Murray but didn't end up freaking out straight away; he was back to his normal figure. I noticed that he was significantly larger than me, approximately three times as big.

      Instead of being freaked out, I just stood there, waiting for him to say something. Eventually, he came up to me and said something like “Hey, I'm sorry about what happened in the last dream. But now that I'm back to normal, the dreams' gotta go back to normal too”. For a moment, I look confused but when I looked down at the water, I realised the place was going to flood and I started panicking. The water shot up so quickly but before I knew it, Murray had grabbed me and I was sitting on his arm, waiting for the dream to do what it was going to do next.

      I ended up by myself in some school environment, where all the teachers and fellow classmates had American accents. I don't completely remember what happened in those scenes but I was very confused and gave the teachers and students lessons of my own knowledge. That's all I can remember about that dream.

      Dream 257 C - Family In America
      I was in some shop with my parents that resembled David Jones but then mention was made that we were in America. In this dream, I seemed to be impressed with all the stock at these shops and I said something like how there isn't near as much on sale in Australia. This scene was very short and soon, we were walked around other shops in this big mall. I was marvelling at all the colourful jewellery I saw through store windows.

      The next scene showed that we were on a bus. I forgot the conversation overall but I can remember that it was something about going to another hotel. There was this American woman on the bus that was in our conversation as well. I was relieved that we were staying in a low floor hotel which didn't require the use of lifts. My mum said that we're going to this place called the Grand Hotel and this made me freak out. In the dream, I thought that the Grand Hotel would have gazillions of floors which meant regular use of lifts. That's all I can remember about this dream.
