      I haven’t been on in a long, long time, but I’d really like to work on lucid dreaming again.
      I’m going to start by dream journaling, like I used to.


      I can’t remember much, except for a dream fragment.
      My freshman year English teacher was congratulating two members of the senior class on their “early marriage”. She said that every year, at least two students would get married before they graduated.
      My boyfriend had an expensive looking camera, and he was photographing the couple. I was sitting next to him on the grass, while the couple walked down a carpet rolled out on the lawn.
      I accidentally got in the way of one of his photos, and he asked me to move.
      I laid down on my back on the grass, and he laughed and said he didn’t mean I had to do that, just to scoot out of the way.
      That’s all I remember.

      I enter a bar. A bunch of metal dudes enter as well. They go to another room somewhere upstairs. Then my dad is with them, or at least they know my dad. They say something to me from the other room. I reply and try to find them in the building, but find nothing. The building is all wooden corridors smeared with blood, and burning naked corpses hanging from the ceiling. Monsters start appearing everywhere. I knock them out of the way with a makeshift club as I keep looking for my dad.

      I am in an apartment, and know that some people are going to come in. I attempt to climb out of the window, but they come in too quickly and I am unable to get away. I go with them and they bring me to a city. The city has beautiful architecture and oil paintings. It feels very old. The people still won't let me go.

    6. Buying Souvenirs

      by , 05-06-2018 at 02:32 PM
      This morning I found myself at Gyeongbokgung palace again. When I got to the entrance I realized I was just in street clothes, and I remembered that I was going to try to show up in hanbok from now on so I crossed the street and found the store from my first dream about the palace. Luckily everything was the same and I was able to get the same dress without paying for it.

      As I waited in front of the palace I lost my lucidity. Eventually some girl came up to me and asked if I wanted to go shopping. I said yes, and we went into one of the palace's museums and starting looking at and buying souvenirs. Somehow I had a purse that I didn't have in the beginning of the dream, and inside it I had a lot of Korean money. The money was really detailed and accurate looking. I bought some hanja writing pens (basically pens with little paintbrush tips), a cute notebook, a puzzle, and some multicolored chopsticks with Korean written on them. I don't know what the other girl bought.

    7. I do not know how to play gin rummy

      by , 05-06-2018 at 11:06 AM
      Morning of May 4, 2018. Friday.



      My dream starts with the very common liminal awareness of my physical body being in bed as I sleep, but I do not attain viable lucidity.

      My dream still renders a bed as my dream’s setting, though the location is unknown and undefined and I absentmindedly perceive it more as serving as a table upon which to play the card game. In fact, even though I am aware of playing Gin Rummy with several other people, I do not ever actually see them. I am on my left side (as I am in reality as I sleep) looking at the several piles of playing cards, some face up, each pile with a few cards, some spread out more. I am trying to remember what I need to do next.

      However, as my dream self in non-lucidity has neither viable access to the unconscious nor the conscious self identity, I remain uncertain of the rules (even though I have played Gin Rummy in real life numerous times). I gather up all the cards to shuffle them and start to deal them out, but then I consider that this is probably wrong. My dream becomes more abstract and I soon wake.



      This dream was a result of watching “Think Tank” (a television game show) with Zsuzsanna, when a question about Gin Rummy was asked of one contestant and he got it wrong. It is interesting how the simplest random event can integrate into the dreaming and waking processes, but is there a real reason in this case? The question was about the highest-ranking card in Gin Rummy, of which the answer is “King”. I suspect that this correlates with potential liminal dream control in the dream state for a few reasons. One, the presence of the dream state indicator (me being on the bed). Two, my passive dream self allowing the preconscious to modulate rather than a thread of my conscious self identity taking control of my dream. Three, this dream is of the type based on thinking skills correlation, to induce synaptic gating for triggering consciousness.

    8. Dream - Power Outage & Grandma Has Kittens

      by , 05-06-2018 at 10:00 AM
      Date of Dream: SUN 6 MAY - 2018



      Dream No. 323 - Separated Sections

      Dream 323 A - Power Outage (Lucid Dream 17)
      The dream started with me being at my house. For the first scene, I was down in the garage. There was a person that resembled Dreamy WB; in fact it was Dreamy WB but I have forgotten her appearance. She came up to me and asked me to help her find the lifts. She said that she had to leave in order to help a sick person. I wandered down the cellar and things felt strange to me. In real life, it's just a tiny corridor that stops at the end but in the dream, there was this whole new area to the side of it.

      I strangely felt aware that I was dreaming but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I turned left into the new dream area and indeed I found the lift complex in a completely different looking environment. There were a lot of people at the lift complex, including my parents. So I saw this strange looking Dreamy WB off into the lift and then stood and hesitated as I felt I had nothing left to do. The scene changed.

      I was now in the main part of the house, no distorted features, right in the middle of the night. It was dark inside and so I decided I wanted to turn the lights on. I went up to a light switch and it wasn't working. I thought further, “is this a power outage or am I in a dream?”. I went to the another light switch and it didn't work for me; so indeed I worked out that this was a dream. Also, at midnight in real life, lighting in the dark is usually almost black but in the dream, the quality of lighting was blue, so I could still see my surroundings.

      I walked towards the bathroom to do further reality checks at the mirror. I looked in it and grossly enough, I had this rubber-like snot hanging out of my nose... Heaps of it. I gave it a clean but I won't recap the method I used. Then I said things to myself, quietly talking to myself. I actually recited the dream tasks I had set for myself. I said something like, “Hmm, ok. So... Um... I've got to get Murray back, Logan has to be penalised and then Kevin will be receiving a penalty as well. I've got to check Logan's mail but I can't do any of that because she's not here”.

      Then the most creepy reality check took place, I lifted my hand up to the mirror to see the arrangement of fingers but this arrangement was bizarre. I had nine fingers on my right hand!! It was arranged so I had two layers of four and then one finger randomly sticking out in the place of the thumb. This finger arrangement felt so real that it actually scared me so much; I gasped, jumped and never wanted to lift my hand up to the mirror again.

      I found that I had to clean my nose further and so I had to lift my hand up to the mirror again. This time, it was the usually un-normal six fingers. Whenever I touched something with my sixth finger, it would hurt; like it was actually reality and my mind was telling me that my sixth finger shouldn't be there. No matter how much I thought about the dream tasks I had to do, I just couldn't motivate myself to actually go and do them. Soon enough, that dream had ended.

      Dream 323 B - Grandma Has Kittens
      I don't remember much of this dream. From what I can remember, my second grandparents were at my house. Indeed grandma was at her normal age, in her 70s, but she was pregnant! I was actually thinking to myself, “You're past menopause so how on Earth can you be pregnant?”. She didn't have human babies though, she actually gave birth to two mixed coloured kittens, a boy called Tommy and a girl called Jessie. The dream didn't show her giving birth but the kittens had suddenly appeared and then she went back to looking like normal.

      My dad was also there and my grandma was his mum; so Tommy and Jessie were actually my dad and uncle's new siblings! Only my uncle wasn't aware of this because he wasn't in the dream. I spent some time playing with the kittens but I forgot what I did with them specifically. That's all I can remember about this dream.

      Although my ambition to achieve tasks was foiled again, I find the events of 323 quite interesting. The backstory is that yesterday, my throat was feeling sore and so I thought I was on the way to getting a cold. In the first scene, Dreamy WB actually came up to me and said that she had to leave the dream world to help a "sick person". In hindsight, she was sacrificing the dream version of me to stop my physical body from getting sick. The reason I think this? This morning, I didn't get worse and rather, my throat hurts less. Additionally in hindsight, I could have gotten to Murray, even without Dreamy WB. The only thing that's a must with Dream WB at the moment is the penalties.
