The first foothold of Arch.

I am at some sort of festival. Im really drunk, and Im with alot of the people from my school, from my year and the year below.
I walk around aimlessly for awhile, and then for some reason I have to sit my Maths Core 3 exam, drunk and only learnt a third of the course.
There is two exams for some reason and I'm so impaired that I barely finish the first one.
My friend tells me he did bad too, which is some comfort.

Comments: I think this reflects on my attempt to take on such a large work load, I am quite intimidated and unmotivated, but hopefully it will be ok.

I am at a festival with friends, my so called friend John is with me.
I ask to lend his speaker, he lets me.
Later on I ask to lend his speaker again, he starts attacking me.

Comments: I'd just like to point out that this dream has little or nothing to do with the realities of shared dreaming here. It's still an awesome dream though.

Dream.
I am on my computer browsing dreamviews, mainly in the Beyond Dreaming section.
I find a post that is about a conspiracy the government have about shared dreaming, something that has been leaked on dreamviews. I am very interested by this and read through it.
The information on the post describes the secret telephone method of contacting the shared dreaming sector of the government, I do not know what they have been doing wrong, but is clear to me that I am finding out information I shouldn't.
I go to my friends house because I believe his dad will find this information interesting.
In order to contact this secret number you have to rewire an old telephone, so that there is two connections to the phone an input and an output, the output becomes an input also.
Instead of watching my friends dad make this phone, I see flashing images of the phone morphing into the right setup.

My friends dad disappears, yet the phone remains on the table, I pick it up and dail the number 5151, the phone rings....

Someone or something picks up, it pretends that it isnt a person and more an answer machine saying random stuff, mainly just noises.
This fools me the first time, I put the phone down and think.
I ring the number again, I accuse the person on the end, I tell him I know he is a person!
He replys, 'you would have been better not knowing this, it is a shame to do this.' He puts the phone down.

Life appears to continue as normal, I have to leave with the army, I am with alot of my friends.
We go out on a patrol one day, and get in a fight, I get separated.
I am on my own, outnumbered, I get captured.
I manage to get to a phone, it is wired correctly, I ring the number.
He tells me I know too much, and that I will be killed for doing so.
I am in a cave full of asian people, my guess prisoners captured from the taliban or along those lines.
They all run one way, I know this is the wrong way and scream to them to stop, they do not listen.
I run the other way, and manage to get free.

I find an american army patrol, I try to explain what has happened to me, the commander does not listen.
I end up carrying the partrols equiptment, we get in another fight.
It is with my old partrol, they are doing some strange method of shooting each other to recognise if they are allies, it is retarded and therefore I scream for them to stop.
We head back and I end up having to work in this resterant.
There is bully and tries to show off the the girls that are working there. I try to make friends, I beat the shit out of him.
I get captured.

Im inside this dark room, on the wall there is a small notch in the wall which runs the entire stretch of the wall.
I climb in as I hear the siffer dogs coming, one comes right up to my face, I know there is not much hope.
Two army men come very close to my face, I cant believe they dont see me.
One comes extremely close and finaly realises Im there.
I burst out and begin to fight.
End.

Yeah... I had a dream about this.

Dream.
I am standing out side of what seems an ancient chinese building.

It is the Dreamviews Academy, I go in.
There is lots of rooms everywhere, each room represents a different technique.
I see I technique I would quite like to learn about, I go into the room.
End.

Comment: No I don't beat myself up because I dream about lucids and not realise Im dreaming. My dreams are too realistic sometimes.

My first sleep last night in my own bed, oh and guess what... the epic dreams have returned.
I did try to DEILD last night, but the 'custom alarm' I made wasnt loud enough to wake me up, clearly.
We can always try.

Was repeating mantras again, I managed to wake up again, sadly Im still ill, so I woke up with a fever which put me off staying still.
Ill try again tonight.

First attempt at DEILD last night, Im quite good at remembering what I said before I went to bed, so I did mantra for alittle while before I went to bed, saying "Ill stay still after the dream". I do remember waking up after a dream, but I got HH so fast I moved. Ill try again tomorrow.

Other fragments of dreams. Non Lucid.
Taking on IRC with nito89.
Something about america.

Poor recall last night.

Remembered a non lucid today, I was having a fist fight with a class mate, but I was really struggling to throw each punch, but I won in the end.

Was in an old fashioned room, wearing wellies, 1st person. I can't remember much of what had happened before, but I knew that weird stuff had been happening to me. Smoke and flies started coming out of my right welly, and I was very disturbed by this, then I looked up, the door handle was turning silently. I was very scared by this and then suddenly white faced children were coming towards me and pushed me back onto a table, I felt them put their hands on my chest, I was like "fuck that, this is way to weird to be real life" and with my eyes closed I did the nose reality check, I was dreaming, sadly when I opened my eyes to stabalise everything was almost gone and I woke up.

After little sleep the day before, I slept for 10 hours straight through my alarm at the 6 hour point. I attempted to WILD after 10 hours but didn't work, maybe because of the REM, or because I had finished with my sleep. Going away for 4 days to leeds fest, then Im going away to centre parcs for a week, so might not be on for abit.

Tried a WILD afternoon nap with some relaxation music
The Best Relaxing Sounds Ever vol1 - The Ocean - YouTube
Sent me straight to sleep! : (

Was at a party and I didn't get to sleep really, so no dream for me.

Another WBTB Fail.
WBTB Time: 6/7 Hours
Problem: Too awake
Next atempt: 4/5 Hours

After Failing a WILD I have a DILD false awakening, I realise pretty fast that I am dreaming and do a reality check. The clarity of the dream is very good, although the stabilization is horrible and although I manage to keep my cool, I've got this weird thing where my eyes keep shutting, and Im trying to stop it from happening in the dream, I attempt to stabilize with my hands, I can't remember if it works. I go down stairs and tell my mom I'm in a Lucid Dream and she jokingly says that something will get me. I try to go out of the door yet and I fade out of the dream.

Back from holiday, Ive kept a DJ whilst I've been away but I cba to upload it.

I'm on my way to Leeds Fest, and my mom has bought my like 2 tubes of pringles to live on for four days. Ive also got a massive £4 in my pocket. Doesn't seem to bother me too much, although I do recognise that I wouldn't of been able to survive for four days on that.

I've also got two iPhone 4s for some reason, and one keeps going into this boncey ball and going off on its own accord. Which I have to go get, this happens several times with friends laughing at me. My iPhone now has a few scratches on it and I'm quite upset.
