non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening I am Lawrence of Arabia, female version. On a train with westerners and arabs. The train is diverted to a remote village, hijacked. We are taken along. I confront the thieves, but they present me their arguments and we end up staying there, both as prisoners and guests. The men want me and women hate me, both because I am very voluptuous and attractive. I am accompanied by two ladies who are always covering me and blocking the men's looks. At some strategy meeting, Clara is talking, presenting a project and asking for backup. Everybody rejects it and turns away. I am the only staying and supporting it. She gives up and rips the papers apart and goes to a bar next door. She leaves her purse and camera behind, so I grab her things and meet her at the bar, which is more like a coffee shop and other friends I know are there too with her. Somehow she is surprised that I brought her stuff. Including money she had left on the table. At my far, the gate is broken, some of my dogs are out. My dad is fixing it from the inside, I go outside and block it with something so that the dongs don't run away. When I turn away, I am now on an apartment of which I can't find the exit door. On the bathroom I see a ghost. It tries to lock the door and trap me, but I manage to escape. Some brazilian dude rings the bell and I finally find the door. He is pushing some campaign and offers me cake. wants to come inside. I say the house is haunted and he still offers to go inside and check it for me. But I choose walking out instead. At my university campus, some celebration with live music and tents. I am trapped under and inside one. I try again going outside but they engulf me. I fly through the ceiling, but don't get outside, just to a different place, like an office. At this office, people have their dogs and cats with them. I pet some of the animals. Then some lady has two babies and asks for my help. They are adorable. One had vomited and the other needs her eyes cleaned up. I tell the mom to go get proper cleaning products while I take care of the babies who fall asleep in my arms.
WBTB 1. (Dream) 2 liter capless, fried egg stairs, (knife), F, alt apartment, night, cars (WILD) In 8 nighttime, phase out of sliding glass door, accidentally phase through ground too, end up in Medieval chambers, long tables and a closet full of loose weapons (some really unique - twisted wood with two razor sharp small blades, lots of interesting maces, no swords; see guy, attack his head but he's resilient, turns out there's beasts we need to fight, pick up a bow and some rubber tipped arrows, keep asking him for a sword, eventually wake. Was a long (5ish minute) dream! WBTB 2. (WILD) In dark room, burnt man interviewing someone (nasty) but as he asks questions he's sketching in some lewd, nude, and (a bit) rude drawings, he goes on to some featuring Mewtwo and I make fun of him, see I on way out, then become lucid and leave the room, transform self in mirror but mirror is inconsistent - not keeping up with my movements or angles or anything. So I take the mirror outside and fly, it reflects the stars and moon well but my face is strangely small in the middle and sort of holographic. Could feel my waking body (WILD) Not sure beginning of dream but daytime 9 and I walk out of garage and fly towards P's house, I fly fast and high at first, then swoop down load and slow down, and start trying to "summon" an ocean because of comments I told to F last night. Beneath me there starts flowing a pretty big ocean surge, but I try to imagine the ocean in front of me now, and it doesn't, just more and more rows of houses. Slowly the houses start to thin out and I get some wilderness location, and see an interesting cave I want to explore, so I stop (which is a bit hard with my momentum going) and hover down into the mouth of the cave, but it's a lot smaller than it looked from the sky and I just fit my feet and waist in and start looking around when I wake up. Could feel my waking body Notes: Trying two new mantras together with each other. The first is "My dream is me", reminding myself to meditate on the fact that I can take full control of the dream and not pay any mind to inhibitory thoughts or feelings that may cause me to go nonlucid or break out of a dream too soon. The second is "I wake as I wake", reminding me to lie still and do a state test each time I wake to catch DEILDs and/or do more WILDs.
I'm looking at a post on the internet, a beautiful garden of someone. After admiring it long enough, I try to scroll past. I can not. I try to look away at the screen. I CAN NOT. "Dreaming" says my logical processor. I've been here many times before, it can no longer fool me. Something like this only happens in dreams. I curse my bad luck, having a lucid dream during my midday nap when there's too much light in the room. Time for experiments. Moving feels like forcing myself, so I fix that by reminding myself that's an illusion. Moving in dreams is effortless, my situation just makes me believe I'm paralyzed. I roll out of the bed. For a moment I see something different in my left eye, but the vision snaps back to the ceiling of my room, which I misunderstood as a garden previously. I try to abandon visual input and focus on feeling. I vividly feel myself rolling off the bed and I continue rolling. I keep on rolling and still I can't escape the ceiling in my vision, the real stimulus is just too powerful to ignore. I try harder to push myself out of that experience, like sinking into a daydream while awake. I "wake up" the garden post is scrollable now and while I read people's comments on it, I'm also exploring the garden in person, being in two places at once. Shortly after I actually wake up. (I sleep with eyes open, so this happens sometimes.)
Date: Between 2005 and 2007 This is a dream I've had a long time ago but it's still one of the most vivid ones. So vivid, that I in fact feel like it's real life sometimes. I was in an antique store, and all of a sudden, the door to the toilet swung open. A huge anthropomorphic tiger walks out of the toilet towards me. I have the imagery of my mom holding my mouth open, and the tiger inserting some sort of dentist tools into my mouth.

early: + guy standing under a tree with a car up in the branches which falls and hits the ground near him, and I laugh saying "you have to learn how to pay attention!" and I show him how to pay attention to what's around me and I see lots of little baby owls up on a ledge on a wall nearby + standing in home looking outside at the street through a window and I see a brigade of foreign-looking workers arrive and set up what I think is a fake construction project. I think it's a front for burglary. I panic and knew I should have kept the phone number of the security team nearby for exactly such a circumstance, I'm so nervous I can't figure out where it is or how to call them. Later walking outside along a road in between fenced properties. later: + at the river (with wife), is that a stone sticking up out the water? no, it's a fish fin, large round ball-shaped fish, jumps out, swallows my hand, it deflates like an empty plastic bag. There's another one in the water swimming near the shore. See more fish swimming in the river, like trout. I'm holding a fishing rod and I realize I've caught a beaver! I try to reel it in. Then it's on the bank with me and I call to (my wife?) to say how we could study the beaver's habits like how it builds dams. + at dinner (restaurant) table sitting next to Mr. R--d (scoutmaster), who concludes "...and so that's why prison is the best environment for me." The food he orders comes... it's chicken wings and onion rings and I'm disappointed. I want to order something. I'm trying to describe a food I want to order like a chicken pot pie. + flying DO (with wife?) over houses, looking down on them, see that the residents are not there and that there are open doors I think we could enter that property. Flying on the way back there's an open refrigerator with food particles strewn all about, "what a mess" I think. + a bunch of guys in superman costumes standing on a sort of ledge suffering through an unpleasant outdoor group exercise program led by a hot young woman. They all misunderstood because the title of the exercise class had the word "sex" in it. I save the day and encourage everyone to continue and the instructor's mood picks up and continues the class. + There are large/funny groundhogs popping up out of holes. Something about an old car? I see a bow-hunting warrior princess and I try to run away from her down a side road but she comes after and chases me. I pull out a knife on her and she laughs because it's so small. I join in and laugh with her about the knife being really puny. Then I pull out a nice long blade and whack it against her bicycle tires. + standing in my home looking out a window at the road, and I realize with surprise that I'm seeing a large school yard across the road full of young students playing. I think that I'm only seeing this for the first time because we just recently cut down all the trees lining my property and now the schoolyard is exposed. There is a particularly well-developed young woman in the group walking from right to left and I'm trying to check her out but something is getting in the way. + at a home, with kids and wife, the kids are going somewhere with wife, and wife chastises me saying "you have to help cleaning up". "Of course," I answer, and look forlornly around at the tremendous mess in the house, mostly large piles of Lego pieces strewn all over the place.
Date: July/August of 2014 An old dream which I somewhat remember from when I first tried lucid dreaming. I haven't been trying to lucid dream since this time, and only got back into it recently, but this dream was quite interesting because of the way it was induced. Essentially, I was sleeping in a villa in Tanzania while on vacation. I distinctively remember doing a FILD however when I woke up I realized that I dreamed I was doing the FILD because I was in a different bed (the bed on the other side of the villa, where I was originally planning to sleep but my mother wanted to sleep there instead because it made more sense regarding the size of the beds). After initiating the lucid dream, me being 12 year old, decided to summon the epitome of sex into the dream - swimsuit model Kate Upton. I don't need to and will not go into much more detail. One feature of the dream which is a significant point though, is that I woke up with ejaculate in my pants, which I briefly thought was saliva because of the dream's events. I would not mind replicating either the FILD (although I'd love to do one in real life this time) but this dream is nevertheless noteworthy for me because from a scientific perspective, the idea of being able to use a lucid dreaming technique in a dream itself is very interesting - and from a juvenile perspective, knowing how real lucid dream sex feels is quite encouraging on my journey.

83. Hunted with a pack of wild dogs, we were not quite wolves. We charged through field and forest to kill and devour anything in our path. The hunting felt vengeful and gluttonous. 84. Delayed recall. Was in a therapy group with my mother. We discussed fears, joys, sorrows, and lastly sex. My mother looked extremely uncomfortable with the topic. When it came my turn to speak, I considered my mother's very obvious discomfort and asked if she might want to leave. She said no. So I told all that I thought needed telling. The group grilled me afterward. Fragment - In an old abandoned building, admiring it.

Date: March/1/2019 I do not know if my FILD attempt this morning was before or after the dream. My FILD attempt was thwarted by the fact that I was falling off the bed while I tried it, so I woke up and got into a better sleeping position. I didn't really want to continue though. I went to the bathroom etc and cleaned out my mouth and returned, but by then I didn't want to try FILD because I wasn't able to fall back asleep. While I was trying initially, I could hear Elephant by Tame Impala playing in the background. I just woke up at that point and went on my PC. My dream was simple; I dreamed I was playing Dark Souls and the game was buggy as I had graphical textures loaded, and was playing the Daughters of Ash mod as well. That's all I remember, I was down in the part of the Undead Parish with the Titanite Demon I think, or perhaps Darkroot Garden.
Date: circa 26-28/Feb/2019 I walk into the Spinneys at the town center where I live, and I am in the women's section buying hair products etc. In the dream, my mom is not disappointed at the fact her son is buying women's products, as she agrees with me that they're of better quality and basically the same thing in a different packaging. A little boy, possibly my brother (I don't remember) tries to buy a stick of some sort of cleaning soap and my mom very violently and crudely mocks the child for buying such a little amount in a very jarring move which disturbs the dream. I pick up several packets of beef jerky and head to the checkout, at which point a gunman decides to start firing shots. This is the point in the dream at which I begin to question lucidity, as I remember distinctively thinking "gunshots would be louder in real life." I do not, however, assume full lucidity and the dream instead continues. My next plan is to climb up a shelf and remove a ceiling tile, entering the ceiling. I see several people from school hiding there, and I remember the feeling of being annoyed and thinking "damn, people are already here... sucks." This is the point at which the dream ends.
Date: 28/Feb/2018 Backstory: Several days earlier I woke my roommates up at 5am with the Beastie Boys song "No Sleep Til Brooklyn" as I forgot to turn off my alarm (or change it to a song slightly more appropriate than that rap-metal track). For jokes, we agreed we'd wake ourselves up with the song at 7am as it was better than my friend's insistence to play Travis Scott's Sicko Mode. My dream was simply that I woke up and played the song at 5am in the morning instead. There is not much else to say about it.

Date: 27/Feb/2019 I dreamed that I was walking in Times Square. I was on a school trip to Vietnam when this happened, so all of a sudden I was like; "Hold on a second - why on earth am I in Times Square if I was in Vietnam?" I decide to plug my nose and breathe through to see if I'm dreaming, and sure enough, I am. I decide to have some fun now that I'm in a lucid dream. The first thing I do is spawn in a werewolf, because apparently I'm not horny enough for anything else. The werewolf which I spawn in appears behind me, and I turn around to be greeted with the wolf beast from Old Yharnam in Bloodborne. The most hilarious thing is, similarly to the wolf beast in Bloodborne, this werweolf is moving at 30fps I decide to get rid of the werewolf, I'm bored of it. By now I've been made aware that I'm no longer in the USA, but rather the IDA - the Imperial Dynasty of America, a reference to my favorite book of all time, the King in Yellow. I then make myself naked in the dream, because why not?

Back to journalling online. I have much better recall and brushes with lucidity when (even slightly) interacting with other dreamers. Look out lucidverse, here comes dreambent me.
