Scrawlings of a Mad Man

Sleep at around 03:00, first awake at 10:00, then WILDed with my 9 minute iPhone alarm twice.

0) Dreams I don't really remember....

(WILD)
1) Walking around the outside of what looks like my high school (a place I seem to frequently dream of...), and then going inside. Lucid. I walk past what looks like a robotics room, filled with people but looking a bit grungy and full of people. I head deeper down a hallway and run into an ex, who I talk to briefly. She had longer hair than she has now.

(WILD)
2) Arena / board game mix. Sandy, open air Colosseum like thing. Flat rocks were the "tiles" of the game portion, with game pieces being flipped on each. Lucid, I walked out of the building into darkness. After a moment, it faded away into the middle of a desert ruins. I started thinking of my dream goal and, as I looked around, I began to see signs of active settlement mixed in with the ancient structures. An ogre with an umbrella was walking off in the distance from what looked like a central bazaar.

I'm hoping to get back into the habit of dream journaling as I feel it helps me recall my dreams. I find that as soon as I "solidify" them in my mind, I recall them rather well, unless I fall back asleep. Which is why my dreams before my WILD attempts are lost to my mind...

Dreams:
No recall at aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lll.......... Again, need to start doing this when I wake up instead of when I go to bed. Too much time in between. It would also be helpful to take notes in my phone when I awake in the middle of the night so I can keep track of the times and probably remember more dreams.

Dreams:
1) Semi-lucid. I am being recruited into an army in a non-our world. I am aware that this is a dream, but still don't question the story and follow along. I packed a bag but forgot clothes, so I go back to get some. In the meantime, I come across my DCs scrambling around backstage, out of character. (I remember the implication of them being out of the roles they were supposed to, as I apologized to them for messing up the routine).

-Time Skip-

A girl from my high school is next to me in a movie theater, and I put my arm around her. She seems surprised, though not unhappy. Still semi-lucid.

2) Driving down a highway I have never been down before, having a bit of trouble making all the lane changes and turns, realize it is a dream. Pull the wheel up and the car flies vertically.

Dreams:
Tried to solidify dreams I recalled while laying in bed after first recalled awakening, remembering some 3 or 4 dreams or fragments. Forgot a portion of them since then... Not in chronological order, just in what I remember.

1) Some brief dream after 1st Awakening. Recall a reddish or greenish (or both) galaxy when I was woken up by my alarm.

2) Working backstage at or watching a show at a school. Mix of my middle school and high school. Walked through the halls and outside, found a friend and a former classmate. Semi-lucid / lucid.

Since my recall has been rather spotty the last few days, along with a number of other reasons like me wanting to have a better record of things, I have decided to make it a habit to write a post here of my sleep and dreams from the previous night. Coincidentally, it has also been exactly a year since my last post. I'll call that synchronous.

The plan is to record the relevant times of my sleep patterns and anything from the day before that may have impacted either them or the content of my dreams, which I will also record everything I can remember from as well.

Sleep Pattern:

Timings:
Lights Out - 02:30
Sleep - ~3:30-4:00

Attempted relaxation and WILD, didn't get much results. Tried using fear to effect the process. Seemed to help a little though I will need to test it a lot more before I make such a claim.

1st Recalled Awakening - 08:30

No Subsequent Awakenings

Up - 9:30

Modifiers the Day Before:
-3 glasses of decaf tea around 19:00.
-War games at a local game store.

Modifiers Going to Bed:
-Slightly sick with a cough and a scratchy (but not painful) feeling throat.
-Felt tired but not sleepy when I turned the lights out.
-Had been using my computer and phone just before I did so.

Modifiers Getting Up:
-Had somewhere to be at 10:00.

Dreams:
I do not remember anything specific, though I think that I did have dreams and maybe a lucid that I recalled at some point before now. I have noticed in the past that I generally need 8 to 9 hours of sleep in order to actually recall my dreams from the night, short of directly waking up from them. And that my recall plummets if I stay in bed for a long period of time after waking as I did today.

1) WILD thinking about finding Katsuno or Atras. Pool area. Lucid. Yell out "Katsuno" to all the people. Same charged energy feeling my body as last time. Young man, brown haired? tells me that Katsuno normally doesn't usually like being outed in public. Introduces himself as KlausTech. Shake his hand. I call myself AnimusMessor149, correct myself. Say that 4 is pretty much the same as 7. He agrees with me and I ask C or K. He looks confused so i clarify that i'm looking for how he spells his name. Says it doesn't matter. Everyone in the pool area has been bound and gagged now, except myself. Klaus disappears. Turn around to find military types in navy blue uniforms. I believe they are armed with hand guns. Two police in gray outfits. I use tk to slash the military people and knock the heads of the police. Pick up a girl out of the water and carry her to solid ground. Start crying. Dead? Old theater teacher comes in (Room now looks like a living room with tv and carpet. She says she's now in mil-crime (military-crime). I giggle and say I like the word, though she seems surprised. Talks about love and how I don't use her as a contact for jobs. I counter by saying that seems exploitive. She talks about Captain Jack Harkness smoking pot.

2) WILD. Street with a bunch of friends. They race apparently to see who is my best friend. One turns around and gives up soon and the other runs on. The one who quit starts talking to me and I tell him to bug someone else. Stone buildings, market district-like street.

3) At a school somewhat like my high school. Outside alley area. Parked my car weirdly and at one end. Friends are around. I am lucid and using powers. Flight and phasing mostly. Being chased. Flight is controlled by the orientation of my head, either bolting straight up in the air, floating back down, or forward. Very serene. Dream skips and we're practicing energy work (One may have left). I see the energy as three motes of light. One's energy is compact while mine is large and unrefined. Get frustrated and stop. A friend's dad picks us up and drives us out. Gate covers an exit and I tell him he can't get past there but it open. My friend tells me I'll have to come drive my car back and get my phone in the morning. FA to me checking that my phone is nearby.

1) Shared dream with Juroura? Walking through a village living among the stone ruins of a massive city. Either I became Lucid here, or in an earlier dream, and I decided to find Juroara. Of the IOSDP, I'm relatively sure she's the one who lives closest to me, and I wanted to test the proximity theory. I then feel a kind of energy inside me, something I have not felt in a dream before. I make the assumption this means that Juroura is actually close by so I begin calling her name and walking through the streets. A woman, with long blond hair, and around 5'-10" (Maybe? This is my height and I don't recall her being significantly taller or shorter than me.) walks up to me and says, "I'm Juroara." I smile, shake her hand and introduce myself as AnimusMessor179. My memory gets a little hazier here, though I think that we run up some stairs of the ruins... And maybe jump off? Or maybe Assassin's Creed memories are confusing me...

2) Supposed alien invasion. I am with my parents at my "house" (thought I lived there but wasn't the home my parents actually live in). Neighbors have their windows and doors boarded up. I walk around the house and imbue the walls/ceilings with strength (kinda TK? It gave them a glow), find a gray alien has my mom at gun point. I use TK to bash him in the head and knock him out.

3) Driving down 360 with 3 friends, car interior is oriented horizontally (Like a bench, with everyone facing one of the sides). Guy on right sits on another's lap. Police start driving after us with their lights flashing, because we're most assuredly breaking the speed limit. We drive on the wrong side of the highway. Police are catching up, so I lift the car and make it fly.

4) Big fantasy world. I fly. Fight miniature armies (literal plastic minis...), use TK AoEs.

5) Suburb neighborhood area. Weighted wheel thingy (Literally a bar with circular weights on both ends. One pair that floated was white, but they weren't on). Used TK on it and Truespeak to make it float in a pool. Realized that people may be suspicious, as physics says that wasn't possible.

6) Maybe a dream from this night or the night before... I recall being Lucid and trying to drive. Haven't been in my car for the past semester, so it felt odd and like it didn't work right. Dream faded.

Slept 5 hours because of a 9 AM final the next day.

1) I'm in a small room, and become LUCID. Change the room to have a pane of glass over the door and I paint it a solid brown.

2) I paint over an Ipad's screen.

Seeing a scene of the opposite street of my house and cars streaming past. Accidents are being replayed, at a fast rate. One car jumps the curb and rams into a house under construction, causing walls to fall over. Another is my mother and a passenger running into a tree.

I am in a car with family? I talk about my fear of death and ask why I should care about living. One says "Find a reason."

Poor sleep, not much recall.

1) I was with two other people, in a small box-like room, and one was instructing me how to squat press a weight. Other person was going after me I think...

1) I was a loner type character, went to the Red Bird Bar. (Reason for the name is because I read an article about Angry Birds just before bed )

2) Playing DnD with people from my group, and others from college. Non-existent books. Demons?

3) Driving around with an old friend (and others I cannot now identify) on a futuristic Earth. Pass by a factory, a farm, each belching out smoke to the point that it covers the entire area like a mist. The farm was simply a group of wooden, organic looking structures and it ran off oil... Some technology had allowed this, and we were talking about how it was poisoning the planet. I became LUCID somehow...

Next thing I knew, I was in a large building, white interior, and it turned out to be a theatre, with a Moulin Rouge-like production going on. Trying to get backstage, I was cut off by a woman in a sparkling blue dress. For some reason I left the building, only to return later looking for someone.

On a band/orchestra road trip with friend. Didn't realize it was a 4 hour trip. Was planning on having lunch with mom. Trying to figure it out...

Darth: Traveling baseball hat salesman. Came to my door. In a previous dream, I had been threatened, so I didn't really want to answer....

Telekinesis not working

Becoming bored while lucid and deciding to go flying. Phase through living room door.

Walking down forest scene but not in control of legs.

FA where I realize that every time I wake up and get out of bed immediately is a FA.

Friend plays super elite space marines, white color scheme with terminator masks. Actual minis look like wolves, skeleton wolves.

Driving terribly near campus, trying to get to parkour training. Meet up with friends from it. I jump and turn around between two surfaces.
