dream fragment

I had a bad night's sleep last night, which I think effected my recall. I have some brief impressions though.

1. Someone, an older man, pulling me by the arm. He is very angry with me for something I did.

2. Taking some sort of test.

3. One of my friends being arrested.

That's all I can remember, dammit!

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Actually I'm tired and cranky. It's "sleep night" tonight, but to be honest I don't expect anything. Oh well, Friday will probably be here in a jiffy.

22.40: Sleep

04.50: Fragment
*I'm talking to a therapist. She's telling me to think about how I walk, and to keep my feet straight. "Yeah I've practiced walking straight for a very long time now, I almost do it without thinking" I tell her. "But I still have to work on my pose" I say. "Do you want to have a few walking lessons later?" she asks me. "Uhm no. I can walk by myself" I tell her and walk away.

04.50: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 6 hours

Supplements: 2 x Omega-3

That's it! Yay.

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

Dream - Lucid - AP

I was at some sort of weird bar/night club. I think I was there for a pretty long time. I saw Katherine, and she was trying to approach me, and I was cautious about it. She was very drunk. She came up to me and started to calmly talk to me, though she was slurring her words. I saw her a few more times throughout the dream, but I can't remember many more details.

~

I was trying to look up summer classes to take, and I kept typing stuff in, like MATH2030, MATH2530, etc...and none of them were showing up on the list. The ones that did were closed. I was kinda irritated, because I need to graduate, and I need those classes to graduate.

Then, I met up with my very old friend, Jennifer, whom I rarely ever talk to any more in waking life, but we grew up together. We were walking around on campus, next to the stadium, when she told me she was worried she wasn't going to make all A's this semester. I told her she'd be fine. I knew she would be, she was always a straight-A student when we were growing up.

Then, we decided to go swimming. In waking life, she didn't know how to swim when we were younger, and this thought carried over into the dream. I decided that she must have learned somewhere along the way. We were going to go outside, but there was ice and snow on the ground, so we started discussing where some good indoor pools were. I suggested the YMCA, so that's where we went. We were sitting on the edge of the pool, looking at the water park-type structure in the pool. It looked like something you'd find on a playground. There was also this one structure that rose out of the pool every half hour or so for a few minutes. It had a slide on it, and, again, looked like something you'd find at a playground. It was supposedly the most fun thing there.

I was holding this small, gold key chain, and it had two key-type things on it, and a bigger, circular piece. I understood it to be some ancient Indian mood gauge. It would tell you how you were feeling, or something like that. There were two young Indian boys sitting next to me, and one of them showed me how to use the mood gauge. He flipped it one way, and he said that meant you were happy. Then he flipped it the other way, and he said that meant you were sad.

Then, I got in the pool. There was an underwater entrance to the structure. I was afraid to enter it, thinking I may run out of air while going to it. Looking at it though, that didn't seem like it would be a problem. The entrance was pretty close to the surface, and once you got under it, it was only a short trip to the surface. I still didn't enter it, despite my observations. I "remembered" being scared of that every time I had gone to the pool previously.

At some point, I did go on the structure with the slide that rose out of the pool every half hour.

I was at work, and I was at the register. There was a line, but there was one lady who was standing right in front of me, behind the register. I was confused; was she a new employee? What was she doing behind the counter? She then started to ask me about our milk, and if we use the same brand of milk consistently. I told her no, but we try to stay as consistent as we can. We just buy what our providers have at the time. She said something about her boyfriend in the car, and that she needed to tell him that.

Im fighting with P in my living room, he throws me with some judo-move and next thing I notice Im lying on the floor and Im feeling this weird sensation which feels kind of like sleep paralysis. While im lying there, theres this balloon in front of my face and theres a smiley face drawn onto the balloon. P then says something like that I can stand up now or I can move already. I stand up and put on my t-shirt and pullover. I had to take something to J and H who are coming up the stairs from the cellar. My dad is complaining how the dollhouse used to be in one corner of the living room. My mom is wondering how is there water served in a box on the tray. My dog then grabs a meadbottle which is full of water, but my mom doesnt let it take it. I start to change the water in my dogs water cup. My grandma is talking something me about the dog. The dog doesnt want to drink the water when I serve it to her. I see theres 3 pieces of wiener in the cup. I take it again and flush it with water, all the food pieces come off the cup.

Im at a waterpark "Eden" I was talking something to L and O, in one of the pools. I was spitting water on some emogirl from our school and she was just smiling. Then R/YV order me to change some water from a cup which is full of dirty water. I remove the dirty water to wrong place and R/YV are saying something "No, not there" and facepalming. Then I took the water to the correct place.

Im playing a grey keyboard to O and some other guys. Im playing Mozarts Turkish March, but I soon notice the octave range on the keyboard is too small and I cant play the high notes.

I also remember something more about H, J and P and something about our summercottage or some saunaplace....

Dream:

I was at a house (maybe mine, not sure, it wasn't familiar) with my stepmom and stepbrother. As I arrived I saw my stepbrother running around a volleyball net outside. Later, I was in the house with my stemom, and I was looking out the window to the backyard watching my stepbrother running around the net again. Then some man appeared (like a maintenance guy) and walked over out of sight to the left of the house and went into a garage. Because he did this we started going around the garage (which was outlined all along the back yard sort of looking like a place where people can tie up there horses temporarily when they go into a store) and knocking down these white flat thin slats of metal that were hanging up on nails. The slats would drop to the ground and we would go up and pull these big pieces of white paper down that were stapled to the wall or the overhang. I went over to the far right and started there since my step brother was already started on the left. I was having some difficulty and I felt so incredibly short in the dream (I am in real life, but this was exaggerated in the dream). After I knocked down my slat, the paper was too high up for me to reach. Then instead of my stepbrother, I saw a kid from work (cant stand him, we'll call him A.P.) and he came over as if to "show me how to do it". I turned and saw a wooden column beside me with silver metallic rungs all along it, so I started to climb it to get to the paper, but about halfway up the rungs stopped on one side and began on the opposite, so I had to swing around. On the otherside there were silver rings attached to the column, and they were all draped over each other staggered, but tons of em. I think I may have asked A.P. why they would be there and he took his hand and strummed them like it was some sort of an instrument and this loud hummmm came ringing out from it, I was amazed at this in my dream. Next thing I did was go and reach the paper and rip it down and that's the last thing I remember.

My Notes
Non-lucid
Lucid
Awake

The first dream began outside my friend's old house. I'm at the bottom of the hill, when I find an old and very rusty watch. It had a small key with it that went into the back. I bring it home and try to unlock it. It doesn't unlock, so I jam a screwdriver into the back.
I'm at school, outside my lockers again. The watch looks different. It now is shiny, and it glows. I show everyone how it has strange little mechanicals under the glass. I drop the key somewhere and can't find it. I look up to find my teacher, Mr T, passing it to me with a grin on his face.
I'm in a new building I've never been in before, still with the watch. It now has a large wide-screen on it which has a red button on it to the left. I press it to see what it does. Two people pop up on the screen, kissing. I then realise it's a porno button. "That's odd," I think, and do the nose-plug RC. For a moment, everything is in third person and I'm watching myself do the RC. The first few times my hands slip, but then I get it right, and I become lucid. Although I was lucid, it was a very low level of lucidity.
I turn around and see a window the size of the wall. The sky is completely blue, and there's a great big beach-city below me. I'm at least 100 floors up. I turn back around and see two people. One dares me to jump off. I say I'll parachute down. I think the dream ended either then and there, or a few moments later just as I jumped.

Second dream (this was one of those dreams that made no sense whatsoever): I'm in my bedroom. In my cupboard I have lots of board games in a black vertical board game rack. I really loved owning them all. A black tower, the same height and diameter as my board game stack, appears in the middle of my room. I'm concerned that it's going to replace my board games.

Third dream:I'm in my bed, but I'm in the top bunk instead of the bottom. I become lucid straight away. The first thing I notice is how dark it is (darkness is much more scary in dreams I think). I close my eyes and expect it to be day when I open them. This doesn't work. I try a second time and notice the the wall to my right has a very feint glow, but still there was no real light, so I decide to just leave it there.
I run out of my room, reminding myself to stay lucid. I run into the front room. My older brother is sitting in the main chair. I manage to say "Hi," before the dream ends.

Fourth dream: I'm on a computer, sitting next to some guy I don't know. I show him someone's youtube account. I notice that page has 31 dislikes. I didn't know you could even dislike a channel. I find out that I had accidentally gone into my channel. I notice he writes down my username. Embarrassed about him going on my channel, I contemplate deleting it.

Fifth dream (only a fragment): I see nothing but a page of a book. I know that my eyes are closed. I try to read it, but it eventually gets harder and harder to read. As I read it out loud, I notice that I'm barely paying attention to what I'm reading and won't remember it.
This may not have been a dream, but me seeing HI in a daze, just after waking up. It was most likely a dream though.

Sixth dream(also a fragment): I'm at the Year 9 Centre at my school. Some girl walks past with dark green hair. A person tells me how green is now an official hair colour now. What she meant by that was: people can now be born with green hair and have it in there genes. Even though it's different, I like the new colour.

Seventh dream:I'm in third person, watching two young Asian girls walk around an abandoned dock. The eldest one walks inside the building, which had walls that appeared to be made of a bright wood, and finds a switched-on laptop. She goes further down and discovers two more switched-on laptops. For some reason this gives her the impression that the owners of the laptops must be in danger, and she panics. They both climb the roof and start yelling and waving to a boat in the distance.

Eighth and final dream: I'm inside... somewhere. Two people are standing next to a narrow tunnel that goes up on a 45ish degree angle. One of them keeps throwing little stones up it. He says it's to distract someone who wants to steal an important orange stone. I remember thinking to myself how, in this strange and big world, police would never know how to deal with this, and these guys are right to deal with the situation themselves.
I climb the narrow tunnel. At the top is a dark blue ocean at night. There's a lone wooden boat with only one man on it. He looks a little bit like a demon. I get on board and wrestle him into a headlock. One of the guys instructed I drown him. For a moment, he turns into a purple book. He's now in his true form: a young looking man with blond hair, and light-brown body hair. He looks just like one of those half animal half human anime drawings you see all over the internet. I finally get him in a headlock and put my hand over his mouth. I see by the look on his face, he's no longer an evil person, just scared looking. As I have him in the headlock, I can feel all over my body his warmth. It was equivalent to leaning against your partner, only dream-amplified. Straight away I feel connected to him, then I feel sorry for him, as I now have to drown him.
I pull himself and I overboard. I watch him closely. I can't let him go till I know he's lost conscientiousness. I begin to struggle to hold my breath. I try to distract myself from the need to breath, and then I wake up.

Eight dreams... New personal record?

I tried to do a WILD in a nap because I had some spare time. I never experienced any of what people described as sleep paralysis or HI. There were two times that I nearly slipped into dreaming, but I suddenly pulled out again? There was one moment where I was counting... 166...167... A random thought (the beginning of a dream) began to unfold, then it went away... 168...169

I had gym this arvo so I thought I'd be tired enough to do it, obviously not

There is this little thing I remember, I'm not sure if I'm right, but I think I saw an orangey haired person standing behind a counter in a kitchen...

"If I was perfect, I would date perfect."

"Wait, this isn't just about the sex. You like his personality. You like that he's conniving."

"Don't even..."

"Oh my God. You're sleeping with me."

Amber. Scare Factor: 1.

As I was droppng off to sleep on a couple of occasions, I had the following hypnogogic snippets (not saying images as they were moving but just lasted a second or two before I woke up), which were very vivid.

Hypnogogic 01: Woman, blond hair, cut off jeans and light blue tee shirt shinning up a coconut tree, this is viewed from the base of the tree looking up.

Hypnogogic 02: A woman as pinoccio, not as cute as this sounds as it wasn’t a cartoon image but a very vivid real image, the wood was a light coloured wood heavily varnished but the eyes were real, deep brown and frantically looking from side to side.

Hypnogogic 03: A woman with long blod hair and a red mac walking along a path up a mountain. Viewed from slightly below looking up.

Walking along a pavement with a mound running alongside the pavement to my right and a few shops to my left. Looked into one of the shops, a newsagents, and saw on the magazine rack a magazine with a picture of spiderman on the front cover. Further on down the road in a park, I realised that I too had superpowers and as three men ran towards me, I turned round to blow a hurricane force fart at them causing the turf to come away from the ground and cover them like cream in a Swiss roll.

usually my upper teeth...
In my dream i BIT down on them so hard that i wont stop until I hear one of them break in my head...

help....

I had an LD last night and all I remember was walking from a room in my house and it leading into a room at my girlfriend's house and it caused me to do a reality check. Of course I realized I was dreaming but that is about all I remember other than running outside to fly away and explore the dream world then trying to create a portal to somewhere else. The rest of the LD is a fog.

School, Werewolf, Megan (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Log: 11:11pm Monday, February 20-21st, 2011
8:49am
Hours: (No joke, exactly 10 hours) Alram: None Audio: None

This dream was awesome. I was at school and i was hanging out with people before class on an Orange Day. I had to go to choir. I remember asking someone what day it was, and then realizing that it was good that i didn't have Science. So i was talking to people, mostly Riley, and the time was nearing that i had to go to choir. For some reason i had brought a few stuffed animals to school for somesort of spirit day or something. I brought Simba with me, i don't know whay i didn't become lucid, because i would NEVER do that. But Montana had one exactly like mine. I couldn't go to class until i looked both of them over and determined which one was mine. So i looked and looked, made a decision and then changed my mind until i finally noticed that Montana's has a giant whole straight through the head. I laughed it off, put Simba in my backpack, and as i was leaving i noticed that Uni was on the ground. I was just like, "Really people?" And put it into my backpack as well. By now it was well past the bell ringing. It was half and hour into class already. So i sat down next to Riley and asked him ifhe thought she would be fine with it. Then i said that i had seen others doing that but i've never done it myself. SO thought about it and thought about it and finally came to the conclusion that i would go. But right as i made that decision, a bunch of people started coming into the atrium. I saw people from choir so i thought they were let out early. So it was all good now.
I wanted to talk to some more people now. I saw Hannah, Sam, and Megan Ives. They were all siting at a table. I went over and sat next to them. But they all got up immediately becasue aparently, they had something to do. So i was sitting there all by myself. But then the girls came back around and realized it was me. They all sat down, Sam imediately to my left with Hannah behind her, and Megan to my right across the table a little bit. They said hello and stuff like that, but then they started complaining about how cold they all were. And so i pointed out the apparent fact that i was scorching hot. As i let them touch my arm they were amazing and in awe at the sheer heat radiating from my body. The soonnoticed that it was like being a werewolf. One of them quoted the book or something and Hannah immitated the way Bella may have touched Jacob, and i made fun of her playfully. I was ultimately impressed with myself and the high level at which my flirting was at during the interation. I was happy. Then it ended.

Taco Store, and Chasing (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This dream starts out in a store that is fairly small. It resembles the gas station near the school. I was there with my family, but at the same time, i was in school. I went to check out, and i had something to do with tacos and a can of soda. I asked him if $5 would work, and he asked ifi was used to paying 75 cents atthe other gas station and i said yes. He said it was ok, but the prices had gone up. He was devestated for some reason. He told me a heartfelt story of his life as the owner or something. I was touched and as i left i told him to have a great day. I turned to myleft and started back toward the school, but in this case it was also back towards my house. As i took off, in fornt of me a a group of 5 or 6 smokers. They were actually considerate as they, instead of letting the smoke go behind themand affect me, they blew it down towards the ground in an almost ocol effect. I tried to get passed them by walking extemely fast. I worked for a few people, but then Carlton and Daniel Marcus were next to me and they insisted on tlaking to me, but i didn't want to. But regardless i asked Carlton to do the coolsmoke thing. I can't remember if he did it or not. But we kept going, and the snow got worse and worse as we approached a hill. We had to climb up the snow. It was slippery and very hard to do. I got up particularly fast, and the others asked how i did it so well. I laughed and told them that it was my childhood. Curtis was behind me, and i thought it would be funny to push him down so he would have to climb all the way back up. So i did it and he complained. But he somehow got to the top before me and took off running. I climbed ever faster and as i got to the top i told someone to watch my coat as i took off running after him. I don't know the reason i was chasing him in the first place, but i did it anyway. We were going at full capacity and it felt great. I started running out of gas, and he just kept going. So i had to use my intelligence rather than speed to catch him. He went through someone's garden and said that he was going to win because he had been there before, and it did seem familiar, as if he had done a video there before. But i simply went around, and he wa there and i ran one last time as fast as i could and finally tackled him down to the ground. And then it ended.

Zoo Animals, Jurassic Park Island (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I cannot remember much from this dream. I know animals were involved and we had to get them from one place to another. The place we were trying to get them was similar to an island that Jurrasic Park took place on. It was secretive and amazing. I was the head of the operation. The only other thing i can remember is the plane rides. There were many people, and they were all drinking soda. By the end of the ride, the drinks were being delivered automatically people they already knew hey liked the soda so much. Then it was over.

Im driving near my grandmas flat with S and V. We drive to this fenced place with S and I rush him to get over the fence, while P and V have already got out of the place. Its like this place where they keep the high voltage transformers locked.

I also remember being in some place which was like labyrinth, but still it wasnt a labyrinth...

Type: Fragment/Family - Non Lucid
Dream:
(there were a couple of dreams I had, so this is a fragment runoff, the last of about 3-4)
First I was in a store shopping for baby clothes with some women who just had a baby girl, she was standing there with the stroller. Next thing I was at some house, and my grandma arrived from somewhere like a trip because someone was saying "She's here!", there was another girl there (I think maybe the girl who just had the baby) and she was in the kitchen. Then I remember me and possibly my mom (but later turned into my Grandma P) appeared at a different house. I remember hearing her make a comment about how the other girl at the old house was going to have to unload the big trucks filled with all of Grandma P's things by herself (and I felt pity for her, wanted to go back and help her, but I couldn't). Outside of this house there was a portion of maybe a wrought iron fence and on it was hanging some necklace, like red velvet and gold. I picked it up and brought it in the house, my Grandma P was standing at the door looking displeased. Then I remember a feeling of needing to prepare for something. And then we were in the kitchen and my Grandpa S was there and there was a huge box of sweet cream butter that we were unpacking into the fridge, I was taking out of the box and handing to someone who would put it into the fridge. The weird thing was I was pulling them out and the packages were opened and some was missing, like someone was eating as I was putting it away, then the butter started to be colorful as I took it out. Bright green ones, pink ones and blue ones. My Grandpa S started asking me questions about my boyfriend, like he was trying to tease me, I was a little reluctant, he was hinting about being married and I remember telling him that he is divorced and has two little boys. Then I heard my Grandpa S say he was hungry, telling my Grandma P and next I see him with a roast boiling in a coffee pot in front of my face. I say to him "I like to make chicken with vegetables, take chicken breast and season it..." and my Grandpa S cuts me off saying "Chicken!? Naw I don't want that healthy stuff!" and I say "Well Grandpa, I have to eat healthy now, or I won't make it to live as long as you." And he got quiet and said "Well, that's true".

Objective Context:
I have been thinking a lot about my grandparents on both sides of my family and feeling somewhat stressed that I have not seen my family in over a year. I used butter in cooking last night, and I make pork roast and kraut yesterday for dinner. I also interpreted dreams yesterday about someone's Grandfather and having a baby.
