Non-Dream, Non-Lucid, Lucid, False Awakening

This girl appeared once in a blue moon. I still didn't know who she was. This was the second time she appeared. A small number didn't mean anything, but the feeling did. I felt that this dream character stood out from others. I'd love to get some more information on her.

Well, I don't have to care, actually. Let's get into the topic, for the sake of progress tracking. I slept at 11:15 PM on September 12th, 2015. Woke up naturally and recalled a fragment. It had been solid for only a few seconds then I failed to make an image out of it.

We were... somewhere, sitting at the table in an ice cream shop. We spent quite a long time discussing various things. It seemed like we've already formed a relationship.

That's all I could remember. After recalling, I kept on sleeping. A long dream started here. Surprisingly, she didn't vanish, she just didn't play a role. However, both of us still felt like we've talked a few minutes ago (in the previous dream). I failed to recognize this illogical timeline. I couldn't be at that place then be in a class in such a short time.

I was in a class, assumed it was an English class. We were assigned with big chunks of sheets (exercises) to do. The classroom, as far as I could remember, felt smaller than usual. I couldn't remember how it actually was since I didn't even bother to look at the whole classroom.

I started working on my exercises. Some questions were answered with choices. Some questions were answered with short writing. There were no specific topics. Things were random, but most of them were about psychological.

While I was finishing them off, my close friend (sitting next to me) constantly bothered me. He asked me some answers, or just complained that questions didn't make sense. (Of course, they didn't. Yet, I didn't notice.) There was a question to answer with a full paragraph. It was asking something about techies. This time, I had to talk with him as I wasn't sure. It was a question to be answered in a creative way also.

He could only say he didn't know. He said those whole things didn't make sense, yet I didn't even notice. Soon, my supposed teacher came in and told that we had to give it to teacher already. I, not finishing my works yet, grabbed my close friend's paper and copied all those answers. (What a bad kid.) Thank goodness, everything I've left out seemed to be simple, choices questions.

The teacher asked me for a fee, for not completing my works. I was confused and instinctively looked back for no reason at all. I saw her handing me some coins already. I took it, and thanked, even though being confused. Then, I woke up. I haven't taken any notes on when which dream was recalled. It was far too long for me to remember also. Thus, I could only leave a list of my awakening: 4 AM, 7 AM, and the final one at 11 AM.

Seriously. Complete nonsense and multiple warnings went unnoticed. How lovely.

Non-Dream, Non-Lucid, Lucid, False Awakening

I was in a school. As usual, I was doing some works. It couldn't feel worse. Things looked boring. I did talk with my friends a bit, but conversations couldn't last long. I let out a sigh and continued finishing my tasks. Somehow, I felt sleepy, close to point where I would collapse without knowing. Soon afterward, I instinctively put my hands on my desk. I looked carefully and noticed I had an unusual amount of fingers.

I believed I knew this was a dream. I concluded that I felt asleep in my classroom. Though, illogically thinking, I could walk out of the classroom without feeling disturbed anymore. I stood on the second floor's balcony, only to stare at the another building on opposite side of the road. I wanted to fly there, but the feeling was different. Something made me know that I wasn't able to control. Myself worrying about this fake wake-up led me out of the desire.

I turned around, saw many people walking. More interestingly, one of my closest friends stood by my side. He stared with that blank look, same as mine. Without turning his head to me, he started telling me that he dreamt, having me as one of main dream characters. My curiosity started. He told, in his dream, he was arguing with me for some reasons. It was harsh, yet he couldn't understand the contexts. He felt it would just be better to let me know.

I wondered what he was talking. However, as (I thought) I knew this was my dream, I came up with an idea. I asked him, "What about now? Do you think you're dreaming or awake?". As expected, he thought he was awake. I repeated the question. He realized something was wrong with my question, thus knowing this was a dream. To me, he didn't seem surprised at all. He smiled with some thoughts in his mind I couldn't know. He thanked me as if I was his subconscious reminding him. He could do whatever he wanted in this dream, so-called "his". Weirdly, he also warned me to think carefully. I, not recognizing that false lucidity warning, didn't take it seriously. I smiled, keeping the fact that me waking up would cease his existence, thought how he couldn't get any further than me. He sighed then walked away, I assumed he was going to do whatever he wanted. I didn't have to care, so I walked into teachers'/staff room nearby.

I felt I should try something bad. Then, unconsciously, I flew in that room and messed up with all the documents. Most things fell onto the floor. Suddenly, a teacher stood up and yelled at me. She stated how I wouldn't be able to get away with my actions. Chuckles being turned into a loud laugh, I taunted her. It was only a few seconds until I felt something bad coming at me. I quickly flew out of the room.

I woke up at the classroom. Looked around, and things looked so usual. (That was usual for dream thoughts, of course!) A teacher walked in so all students went back to their seats. It was her, someone I saw in my dream. I thought I was fine, but then I was shocked. I was surprised when she called my name and told me to go to the staff room. She said, "retribution", then walked away angrily.

Few seconds passed, I came back to my senses. However, before I could do a state check, I realized I woke up. Why didn't I notice that weirdness? Dreaming in a dream also, how nice. D:

Actually, there was a fragment from my natural awakening at 5 AM. I could recall having a false awakening. My house floor's color changed to brown/orange. It looked luxurious, though. I noticed it and became lucid instantaneously. (Please refer to notes in next paragraph.) I kept on checking time via a clock on the wall and a clock on my phone. I picked my phone up from my pocket. My phone's display appeared to look like Android's while I actually owned an iPhone. Things looked exactly the same as when you were on a phone call and decided to put it in the background. But, I didn't care about it too much. I decided this was something to make me sure that I was in a dream.

To be honest, I couldn't dare to say if I was actually lucid. This fragment was too small, especially when matching up with next dream as explained previously. I felt that my actions in this fragment were unconsciously done. I couldn't even recall controlling anything, or even if I left my area.

Non-Dream, Non-Lucid, Lucid, False Awakening

What could be worst? Illogical dream that isn't last one before I wake up. (Thanks, Aqua's dreams are quite logical.) My recall is like... "lol, nope.", and I can be frustrated enough if I can't recall this great dream. I haven't had something random like this in a while. This one's completely made from imagination. I can't remember chronological sorting well.

After long hours of working with my friends in school in the evening, we left to our place. I didn't know where they were going, but I had to find a place to sit on. My closest friend decided to follow me. We went to a pavilion on the corner of road intersection, inside school, waiting for our parents. (We're supposed to wait outside, but oh well.) I picked up my phone, checked the time and it said 17:11. (5:11 PM) Soon, my friend left, walked out of school.

I continued sitting there, wondering why I was even doing this. An old car came in front. Someone went out, placed a bag nearby and told me to take care of it. I was confused, but nodded. He got in his car. Nothing happened afterwards, he disappeared completely. It was already night, felt like midnight to be exact. I didn't understand why my dad wasn't here yet, but I still did nothing. Soon, I walked off to a restroom. Things were dark and scary. Nevertheless, I felt brave enough for it.

After I came out, I walked out of the school through front doors. Time flew fast while I was walking, it turned into noon. Now, the whole city looked much better than before. Things looked lively. Crowded. I crossed the road to another side. Standing in front of a building having no idea what to do. I picked up my phone and checked the time. It showed somewhere around 10 PM (22:xx). I realized I was dreaming, so I'd rather explore the dream. I turned behind me, saw the building's door lifted up. There was a basement staircase inside, so I just walked in. I was then in the food court of a shopping mall. Wandering around as I noticed I dreamt about this place few months ago.

After few minutes, I ended up sitting down. Things went as usual. A waiter came, I ordered some. There were a group of people running down the stairs to my place. I ignored them and just played a game on my phone. As soon as I picked my phone up, I remembered what I was doing. It was just a few seconds for myself to lose lucidity. Situation went bad. Those people started messing with this dining area. They punched/shot several people. I was still calm. Let out a sigh and walked away.

I woke up as soon as I stood up in my dream. Recalled this dream. Also, I was able to recall some more fragments stuck in my mind. One being myself playing an old game I used to play when I was 8-9. However, I had to use username "AquaBlitz12" as my "AquaBlitz11" was used. This was a real life case though. Someone, assumably from Terraria server I was moderating on, took my name. My real life decision was never to get back on this game again. (I'm serious about my name though. ) Another one being some bomb incidents. No more than these for recalls.

Non-Dream, Non-Lucid, Lucid, False Awakening

Well, what now? I couldn't even be happier than this as I haven't gained a restful night for this week. Finally, here it is! I went to bed at 11 PM. Since it took me half an hour to actually fall asleep so I just repeated my mantras over and over, with intentions to get these three: vivid/great recall/lucidity in my dream. Drifted off afterwards. Couldn't recall much, but oh well. I can remember a part where myself was on my laptop (as usual, daily life) chatting with people through my favorite IRC client: HexChat, inside my house. I was on another network though. That one was a game server I'm moderating (still being a half-op with +h flag). Great place to reality check with letters? Yes, indeed. I didn't do any at all, thanks to me. (Can't even whine.) As always, I don't really like getting into discussion too much so I just lurked around and saw people chatting. Soon, I found someone's name suffix toggling between two suffixes (I'm not sure, but I assume it's something like traditional 'busy' and 'away' status) at rate of once per second. It just looked familiar to how Dreamviews' !asleep, !brb, !away mechanism works (name|suffix). That person was on top of online users, their circle color in front of their name was also changing between red and orange! Completely impossible for HexChat. Highest rank possible on top is a person with +q flag, which will generate orange. Red one doesn't exist. That person (I decided to left unnamed for this journal) in waking life was only ranked with +a flag (SOP), yellow circle with less priority than +q should appear. I failed to even care about this, as I generally assumed orange as away mark and red as busy mark. Soon afterwards, a kid in-game (can't remember name/rank) said out a thing (message from in-game will be formatted and relayed to IRC server with a plugin) which, as always, was annoying and generally senseless. (Same, not going to leave any message here.) Things went on as that rapid-nickname-changing-user replied. Of course, it went as I expected it to be, both in physical and mental world.

I abruptly woke up from that without remembering what happened afterwards. Stayed on bed for few minutes, thinking back until I gave up before doing RCs then got out of bed. It was somewhere around 2:50 - 2:55 AM. (Assumed according to information I got from my phone afterwards) I went out of my bedroom and drank some water, took my phone which was charging outside of my room back in my room. Checked the time and it was 2:57 AM. I noted my dream and put the phone away, before drifting off to my sleep with mantras again. Hoping I would remember more for another dream. (I forgot to turn the fan in my room off. That eventually led me to a running nose next morning.)

I felt myself walking down the staircase as if I just came back home (it looked dark, as if I came out of my bedroom from natural awakening at night though), coming to place I and my sister usually stay. Of course, my laptop on my small desk to the left with a printer, followed with my sister's desktop PC. It looked exactly the same as how it looked in real life. I then looked for my Novation Launchpad in front of my printer and found 4 (or probably more). (I only own one Launchpad Mini in real life though. However, what I saw here looked like Launchpad MK2.) I picked up the top one and started running my index finger on the texture, feeling every millimeter of it. I just smelled it once before smiling to myself, then got some great texture feel on my wood desk. As I was about to plug it to my laptop, I noticed strange light coming from back of my launchpad. It was red light from a hole as small as most devices' reset button IWL has. I assumed that my launchpad needed some 'charging' so I just plugged it to my laptop. I was about to start doing things, but I just plugged it off and plugged it to my sister's desktop PC as I found it taking my desk space. (First, Launchpad doesn't have that light or that hole at all. Second, Launchpad doesn't even have a battery. It's a midi controller which requires plugging to your PC if you just want to use it.)

I somehow heard my friend calling me, asking for technical help. They claimed they were not able to plug their laptop's charger, it just didn't work. (Scene started changing without me noticing, to a classroom where we usually need to use laptops. Most of my friends' laptops have shitty batteries so they always have to use school's energy. I didn't even see my friends in dream though.) I then got on my chair right at 'my' desktop. (Wait, no, seriously. How the hell my sister's desktop PC is here, right on school's desk now? I thought I'm supposed to use my laptop.) I accessed the router. Though, I found it weird that I didn't have to input any passwords at all. (Router is interfering with energy source, much wow. A student can easily hack into school's network router, much wow.) I just looked around on the text and found many places to put things on. These are some of what I can remember.

"Editing message":
[long multi-line message box with some messages on it]
(I suspected what this was, since it shouldn't even appear. I just wanted to see the example then just saw it immediately. A message popped up as if I finished editing some information, with a message "Your network is now mildly better protected!". Weird, eh?)

"Unfortunate IPs:"
[8 message boxes next to each other on the sides, each with length of --------------]
(First four contained something, I assumed it was usual IP. Though, I remember myself removing one of these and added a thing to another box. There were some messages near this place saying that two microphone/speaker devices were being plugged in, only one is allowed at time. I generally assumed this might be cause of that problem also.

Much more boxes I can't remember right now. I should have taken notes of them this morning. Geez.

I woke up at 6 AM after some problem solving, right at time my mom tried to wake my sister up in another room. Tried recalling things, but couldn't really remember anything before launchpad part. I also noted things down to my phone when recalling. Stayed there for 4-5 minutes before I had to get out of my bed and starting my day. I still don't understand how I didn't recognize weird systems around me. But oh well, that was also one of recurring dream signs I have, eh?
