dream fragment

In this fragment I and my sister in law and some others were preparing food for people. Among other things we soaked croutons in soup and sent them to some people who for health reasons could not eat other stuff, but perhaps could eat soaked croutons.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was playing some video game about dragons.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was on dreamviews forum/chat and was talking with Lucidis about some kind of video game-like difficulty option, but for dreams, then we were deciding which option will be best to be by default.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing some warcraft 3 custom map where i was controlling a group of various large insectoid creatures, and was defending the dark area surrounded by trees, from enemy units.

Dream 4(fragments):

I was talking to somebody and looking at the map of some complex, which then turned out to be 'alive' and started to be like video game. Some parts of it, like ventilation system, were rather full of big spiders and rats. And i was controlling player character progress while being noclipped outside of the level.

Dream 5(fragments):

I've found some really old games and was going to run them on some really old hardware, which ended up being tons of problems with stuff not working properly. One of those video games was dragon-related and another one was some horizontal shmup which looked rather decent graphics-wise and one of bosses was some dark-red spaceship. Then i took a break and started reading some magazines, and found out a book from same author as magazines.

Dream 6(fragments):

There was some story about some lab doing experiments on people, which in result lead to those people eyes turning into blue glowing swirly things and them getting some psionic abilities. Then there was a good chance of them dying when exposed to outdoors or something like that.

I am unsure of where the dream began but I find myself in a grass field of some sort and I am already lucid (though how I achieved lucidity is beyond me). I decide to walk around for awhile, just to soak in the dream, being cautious not to do anything that might wake me up prematurely. I explored for a few minutes until I was confident my dream was stable enough for me to do some more extreme stunts without jeopardizing the dream's integrity. I wanted to fly, as I hadn't done it in awhile and it's a experience that never disappoints. Having decided what I was going to do, I jumped into the air and, using my hands and my feet as thrusters, I rocketed into the air like Iron Man would and began flying around. I could feel the pressure of the thrusters on my hands and feet and sometimes the thrust on my hands was so powerful, I could barely keep my arms straight.

After while, I spotted a group of DC's chatting amongst one another and decide I should show off my abilities. I quickly flew down to my new found audience and, by manipulating the thrusters on my hands and feet, I bobbed and weaved through the crowd. So impressed was my entourage, that I overheard one of them ever state that my abilities were "godlike". Amused over the irony (and truth) of the DC's statement and my ego's appetite satisfied, I stopped showing off and continued exploring the dream world on foot.

I soon stumbled upon a small house/shack just a few yards away from the crowd of people I had amazed. However, before being given the chance to actually investigate further, I realized that the dream was fading. I began rubbing my hands together but to no avail. Quickly I began touching and feeling the wooden fence surrounding the shack, hoping the sensation of touch would stabilize the dream. This plan worked very effectively and now the dream was much clearer and more vivid than ever before. However, I knew it wouldn't last forever and that the dream would soon come to a natural end.

Realizing I didn't have much time left, I decided to conduct an experiment with the dream world. I wanted to test and see if dream memory was superior/inferior to our memory in reality. To do so, I was going to try and remember every detail I could about abandoned shack and it's surrounding environment. After a few minutes of observation, the dream ended.

(I would put down what I remember, but I am too lazy at the moment. Needless to say, I am quite surprised of all the details I seem o have remembered. It's not superhuman by any means, but I don't think I would have remembered so much in reality.)

Date: August 7, 2013
Method: WBTB & MILD (WILD)
Total hours of sleep time: 7 hours (WBTB 1 hour)

Well, I tried to repeat my success I had yesterday by doing a WBTB for 1 hour...no success. All I have to offer is bits and pieces of a dream.

At a hotel (again), some type of trip I was taking with a group of people. We all belonged to something (maybe a church group) and I wanted to leave, but I was not allowed. I noticed that my bed sheets were not changed by the maid when I got back from downstairs and this pissed me off.

(Fragments: I noted down 'veve' and 'garden party' and went back to sleep. I can't remember what either of those were about.)

3rd person, following a lady's maid in a castle. She's with her mistress, a blonde woman, very angry at the master of the house right now, a man with very long black hair and a very deep voice, and the master sends the maid away to go wait for a delivery of fabrics, from which the materials for the mistress's new wardrobe are to be chosen. The servant does as she's told, thinking of how hard it is for her mistress to adjust to her new husband and the customs of the empire, and while she waits for the delivery she weaves some threads into Scholar's Knots, a game for the mistress to unravel later, to calm her down. She makes the knots that represent the Emperors, and then, although they don't traditionally go together, she makes the knots for the Richards kings, which she thinks her mistress will appreciate. As she weaves she thinks, as a way of welcoming the mistress into the empire, welcome to your first thousand years.

I got a lucid again today! Pretty cool, and i accidentally succeed with a wild also i think? or it was close, i was almost asleep and i dreamed about that i ball was coming towards me, and i tried dodging. I wake up, because i dodged irl xD

And the lucid i got, was really vivid. But i got some problems to remember everything from the lucid dream. but i did dream checks and such, with success but it was weird, i looked at my hands, and they acually looks normal when lucid
I was at a strange place, can't remember where? ;o

My dream recall is a little better, but i still need to train

Repeatedly seeking a restroom - this should have been my cue to get lucid, dream sign! But non lucid I staid. At one point in this dream I cause an alarm to go off as I enter a private suite, but I reassure the person there that it's alright - I know the owner. Sometime in this dream I also have my pants down outside the restroom and someone sees me.

Dream 1(fragments):

There was some hybrid of forum game and video game, at least at first, i and some other dragons were protecting some city from massive amount of enemies. Then later, it fully went story mode and i was in game itself, we were infiltrating in some techno base together with some female hacker, who was helping us dealing with security systems. Then after that back at town i was talking to some soldiers and enemies returned and i had to protect some little girl.

Dream 2(fragment):

I was on some kind of space ship/station.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing some AoE/AoM based RTS, except with different units that looked like some kind of aliens. I was playing 1v1 vs AI on very small non-symmetrical map, and while playing i was also chatting with SilentEternity. He was talking about that this game has some really overpowered worker units and messed up trading system. The map had mostly mountains and related resources on south-east, along with my base and forests on north-west along with enemy base. On trading system, it was giving bonuses when two town centers were linked, but there was no limit, nor difference on distance other than they had to be near different resources. And the bonus trading gave was rather huge. As for workers, small squad of them could deal with armies of normal units apparently...

Dream 4(fragments):

Snowy city at night, searching something, some rather interesting story(which i sadly can't recall).

I was at school. I think it was the last day. I had apparently just turned 18. I was packing up my stuff when my friend walks up to me and says, "Let me sign your yearbook." When I said no, he replied, "Well, what about...?" I knew he was talking about my crush, so I told him, "No, she's not going to sign it." As I was about to go to the back of room, pornstar Marie McCray (who apparently goes to our school?) walks up to me and asks for help on her French homework. I don't take French (our school doesn't even offer it), so I replied, "Yo hablo inglés y español." Then, a girl from my old school (I'm not sure if she was supposed to be herself or Shakira) came up to me and we greeted each other. We started joking around and I grabbed an old letter apparently written to me from Shakira. She invited me out somewhere, so I grabbed some alcohol and put it in my bag.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen. The school apparently has alcohol and lets underage people take it.

I also saw another old teacher of mine. It took me a minute to guess his name correctly.

I felt a sort of vibe of popularity and felt famous (probably because I knew a pornstar and a singer). If dreams tell the future, I have a much better social life when I'm 18.

I think a small part of me knew it was a dream.

I tried going back to the dream, but couldn't fall back to sleep.

I was inside the closet I used to hide in when I was very young. There are clothing all around me. The details are lost, but I recall how people couldn't find me in there.

Dream recall from today's naps

Dream 1(fragments):

I was typing up some DJ entries and then was discussing spirituality stuff with someone, then i started watching some let's plays and one was apparently let's play of old Spyro 2 game, except intro scene went kinda different and there was different draconic character instead of Spyro and some other new characters, they talked about learning how to use different forms of something. Then i was back at my room, i was about to realize the dream but it faded out and i wake up. I keep eyes closed and try to DEILD.

Dream 2:

I am suddenly in the forest, there's a huge tree, i think something about future i realized that i am dreaming and i have incredible temptation to make huge tree fall down(dunno why), and i literally will it to fall down, and as it does, ground shakes a bit.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was at home and i couldn't fall asleep for nap and i try to find something to do, suddenly Oreo comes in and we have some talk(that i can't recall much), then he leaves and H. apparently comes in and annoys me with some talk about glasses and leaves as well, and then comes back, talks about it again and leaves again. I stay confused for a few seconds.

1. Preparing for myth exam, not too confident. Went to the exam room, people (mob) grabbing the textbook. Girl asks me if she should take this old hardcover, I told her it was the wrong edition, but looks good. They started handing marks out. Next exam, suited up, looked good. Walked around campus- water fountain.
2. Genetics exam, went to check time, registrar's website, but can't find it (Searched for a very long time -20 mins according to dream clock) . Can't see very well either, vision gets all blurry- like without glasses. Went to exam anyway.
3. Playing quake 3 with people. Had to find something, a VERY large map. Went deeper. Ashlyn was in a tiny corridor, defending something. Killed her, killed other two people with her. Got the plasma gun. Got the thing. Filled all the ammo up and headed back to the starting point and won the game.

Arrgh.

I had some dreams I could remember well as I woke up.

But mysteriously, my memory vanished the time I got up and came back from the bathroom.

I just recall 3 things:

1. I wrote a test to become a baker (what the hell), but I had to answer some questions about french literature (again what the hell?). Naturally I couldn't answer the questions and left without giving the test back.

2. I'm waiting in front of a train crossing, which stands in middle of my street (where there is none)

3. Something about Ninjas. But I can't recall more

So..... I didn't log last night. My past couple of logs have also not been very vivid. So, tonight, i'm going to focus and meditate a little before bed. This should sort of remind myself to wake up after a rem cycle is complete and log instead of being lazy.

Anyway, what i remember:

Defending dagger:
It's night, i'm outside on my farm. Me and a friend are vampires and as a result, my family is planning to kill us, or at least i think that was the plot. So i'm outside with a knife, my family members are running at me and i'm slicing them one by one to wound them enough to stop them. I then wound a little girl pretty badly ( i didn't know i had a little sister in my dream world :3 ). because i hurt her, i can't help but break down and cry.

Then the plot slowly turns to me watching a movie part by part which is being projected onto the lawn.

-fragment:
I was talking with a girl i know about a written drivers test and she said it had like 2000 questions and i was a bit shocked.
