dream fragment

I have had some unrestful sleeping lately, and not too good dream recall. So, unfortunately, I can only remember parts of this dream.

Experimenting with Lucid Techniques

I am walking down a hallway, I believe in the old mansion that is connected to the church I attend and is now used for sunday school rooms. I somehow know that I am dreaming. [This may very well have been a WILD, I seem to remember slipping from being awake into a dream at some point. But it would have been the first dream of the night which I didn't think happened that much with WILDing] I realize that I have pretty good control, but the detail of the dream is rather poor. It is pretty dim and fuzzy, as though it were something I was trying to visualize. Also, as often happens, it begins to fade out altogether as I think of myself being asleep.

I begin to climb a staircase, and think back to Hyu's dream journal and how he anchored himself better to his lucid dream. I become more aware of my senses, and imagine a piece of chocolate to bite into. At first the piece of chocolate is very tiny, and doesn't have much substance at all. But the very act of trying to bit into it seems to have strengthened things a bit, so I am able to visualize an even bigger piece of candy. This time, I can taste the chocolate, as well as the caramel center. I can feel the chocolate and caramel in my mouth as well.

Then I get down on the floor and smeel and feel the carpet. It smeels and feels like carpet, allright. I have a vague idea that I tried to summon a Dream Guide, and even of some individual showing up.

Now my recall gets a bit fuzzy, because I don't believe the dream broke up or anything. I'm not sure I lost lucidity either, but I have a vague recollection of a gang of criminals out to get the President. I was part of this gang, but I may have been undercover. Or I may have been out to capture the gang.

Names in KI List (fragment)

Another dream related to Uru. I link into the cavern, and see a few names listed of people who are present. There are only a couple at first, but then I look again and there are a whole bunch of people.

A glass of port

I walk into a bar. The bartender tries to give me a drink of wine. I don't like any kind of alcohol, except for sweet wines and port. I ask for a glass of port, but he pours me a glass of some kind of wine saying it is like port. I take a drink. It tastes OK, but it seems to have some kind of milk mixed in which makes it taste funny.

I have been worried a lot lately, and I hope that the alcohol will help to make me relax. However, the bartender will only give me a drink in a tiny shot glass.

Type: Regular dream.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

It was late at night. The street lights on the road were dim, not bright like they should have been. My father was driving his car, a black 2009 Infiniti with cherry accents inside the interior, at around forty miles an hour down this two-lane road. I was in the passenger seat.

After a few moments of silence, I began to talk about hallucinogens.

"I can enter a state of sleep paralysis using them," I told him. "It's pretty cool. You should try them sometime."

I've never used hallucinogens before and don't plan to. But this dream fragment still shocked me a little bit!

I just remember being in this room where the sizes of objects were bigger than normal, like I would have been in some giants room. I take somekind of "magic wand" and a tiara. I have a partner and she reminds me of Lisa Simpson. I watch out a window and theres this weird looking giant looking at me it has a black hood and a white mask. Im not scared even though its scary looking. It goes away pretty soon.
My partner tries to break a big window to apparently, get out. She cant break it, so I take my "magic wand" and just slightly touch the window and it shatter into tiny fragments like in movies when they shoot windows. It doesnt crumble off until I touch it.

I have this feeling that I want to get out of the place, but Im not scared or anything I just want out....

Tonight I went to sleep a little too late (I couldn't sleep -.-' fucked up my WILD attempt) and it was like I was looking at someone elses Lucid, I can only remember a few fragments:
Something with a doctor who did some sort of Inception-ish things in other peoples dreams. Something with a woman who was accused for something (murder?). Something with water that went red (blood?). Doctor walking through wall.

Didn't have really enough time to sleep this night, barly got 5 and a half..
Tonight was the FILD night, but that didn't went exactly as planned. I woke up, but I moved just to much. Next time I will prevail!

I don't know what I was doing up until now but the mother and sister of a friend of mine came running to me, and they yelled something like "The biggest storm of the season is coming!" and "Please help us prepare our house!"
So I was like okay lol, and went with them.

*blank*

I think it's after the storm now, and the mother and sister now ask me to clean their garden (which doesn't look at all like their real garden).
So I take of my cloths and start eating 3 mushrooms at a time, which seems reasonable. But I can hear / see them comming, so I but back my clothes on and quickly gather some scrap to show them I was working.

My Notes
Non-lucid
Lucid
Awake

Okay, so this is my first DJ update in months. All my previous entries are archived at mattbrox.co.nr. There are 101 entries in there I believe. It's password protected, so to view an entry just add /"dream number" to view that dream. I've noticed in the months I haven't kept track of my dreams, that every night I would always remember at least 1 dream. I've just yesterday (the date this was added) began to start lucid dreaming again, and this time I'm going to try to WILD.

My first dream was very brief; all I remember is being in a large shopping centre, and a dark-skinned lady gave me a cooked piece of meat. I was incredibly thankful to her in an attempt to be polite.

The second dream was mostly just fragments. I remember being with my friend, Joel. We were walking toward a large building with roman architecture. The inside was completely large, long and empty. It contained a large red rug stretching across the floor. At the end of the rug were some small steps that led to a room. We went into that room, and as I passed I brushed my hand against a strange dragon figure that had been carved into the wall. As I brushed it I marvelled at the roman architecture.
I don't remember much about the inside of the room, only it was dark and that there game rooms in there which made me slightly nostalgic. After the rooms I remember being outside. The grass was dying, and there were rusty roller-coaster tracks going in and out of the building. One of the tracks was yellow.
Underneath the were two people: Simon Pegg and a random DC. Simon was saying something about how new expansions to the building would upset the community.
Me, Joel and Nick Frost were next to a grey building that was also deteriorating. In the distance we could see the building I'd just left. The yellow roller-coaster rail seemed to be flinging about, and Simon and the DC were arguing. We all shrugged it off. One of us had called them something nasty, but I don't remember what.

I awoke to the sound of my alarm. I'm using a free phone app (not iPhone) called LucidWeaver, and it has an alarm which wakes me up and then turns itself off. I remember when WILDing you need to stay completely still, so I did. I was comfortable because I was still in my sleeping position. I remembered all the tips and just lay there. I began to feel a slight numbness sweep over me. After about 5 or so minutes my phone went off again. It wouldn't stop, so I was forced to turn it off manually. I was annoyed to find that I had accidently set the normal alarm on before I'd gone to bed.

Better luck tonight I suppose.

in 2010 i had a dream where everyone spontaneously started singing the song from the radio by my bed. Ive had several dreams since then that incorporate my radio music.

Camping in the desert (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in the desert with my brother and I walked into a park. I talked to a man and a woman and signed up for their camp. They were the only monitors there. My brothere and I were offered movies but they were more expensive than others we had seen in a previous part of the dream I cannot remember. Then we did some activities which I also can't remember. Finaly I went to the lake and the girl and I had to hang from a rope and "walk" across the lake (we were sort of hanging from the rope). I gained momentum by dipping my feet in the water. The first time I did it wrong and the second time I went the opposite way as the woman and had to change direction at the last second. After that I started dancing while hanging on the rope (which became much more elastic) while some music sounded (I just remember it was a famous piece). When I finished dancing I jumped really high and landed outside the lake. The man and the woman started congratulating me on my performance.

Bullying is wrong ok? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

J and B were leaving school when some bullies decided to pick on them. They broke some of their CDs. As the bullies were doing this the bystanders were dancing wearing white clothing and face paint.

J and B went to a changing room. B said that he was scared and they started thinking about what they could do about the bullies. B said that he knew someone with "unquestionable links to some gang" and if that didn't work they could use a pirate?

Meanwhile I was thinking about confronting the bullies myself.

I remember going to the Airman's Attic (see below) to look for something I need, but I don't remember what I was looking for. I didn't find it. I asked one of the volunteers to look in the back room, but he refused and scolded me for not volunteering myself. I ended up looking for what I needed at a store, but I still didn't find it.

Airman's Attic - Most (if not all) U.S. Air Force bases have a building called the Airman's Attic, where you can get free stuff which has been donated by other servicemembers. You can also donate stuff you don't need if it is in good condition. I've found all manner of useful stuff there, including an infant car seat, a DVD player, almost new uniforms, and various clothing and board games. All the people who work there are volunteers.

I slept for about 12 hours this morning, and I had a lot of dreams. I think I slept so much that I only remember very few fragments of my dreams.

I'm in a garage in the woods somewhere with my brother, and there's a chipmunk or mouse or something running around. My brother catches him and sprays a chemical out of a bottle on the chipmunk and kills it. I'm very upset and I start yelling and crying.

I've been using binaural beats nearly every night for the past several months. I wonder if this will help or hinder my quest for lucid dreaming.

Set my clock for 5 and a half hours of sleep, then attempted a WILD, but it failed so tried to MILD instead.

#1
Had a dream where I was at hogwarts, and Draco Malfoy and some other people where there too.

I was to lazy to write it down so I only rememberd that part when I was fully awake

#2
I was riding my motor driven bicycle down the street, when I felt hungry. I decided to get some food before going to school. So I wanted to get 2 things but some guy took the last one. When he wasn't looking I snatched it and ran out of the store. The friend of the dude whom I snatched it from yelled angry at me, but the guy just said "Just let him be, he's my little brother" (I don't have a brother IRL). I think some guy chased me on his motor driven bicycle but I wake up.


#3
My grandmother asked me to wake up my sister and her friend. So I walk into some room and see that they are sound asleep. But for some crazy reason I think that their dead, and if I come back later, that they will be alive. So I leave the room.

*blank*

I enter the room again, and the friend of my sister wakes and says:"Goodmorning! Kiss me!".
Me:"Goodmorning, did you sleep well?"
Then my sister opens her eyes and greets me. I wake up.


#4
I'm in some kind of massive city, which my mind percieves as New York (never been there). The idea was that me and some friends went on holiday to Great Britain, but I somehow ended alone in NY.
So I look on our first destination, and I figure that the bus stop where I'm waiting will take me there.
The streets are really crowded with people and cars. There is some hot chick who crosses the roads, when the lights are still red. But somehow she manages to walk just fine to the middle of the road. She seems more real then all the other people, but for some reason I look away from her.
The reason is the bus who drops off alot of people. My sight changes to the other side of the bus and I can see that all the passengers show their tickets.
"Damn! I got no tickets.. Perhaps I can pay with cash?"

*blank*

Somehow, I ended in the bus and am at my destiantion (never heard of a bus from NY to GB lol)

i barely remember my dream tis morning. litterally, all i rember is getting some miricle berries i ordered off ebay arrive. thats all i can remember today mab more luck next time.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Woke up and didn't recall anything. After some half-sleeping on the ride to work I recalled a fragment of the dream I had, and man did my day get a lousy start.

22.30: Sleep

06.00: Fragment
*I'm with a superhero of some kind. He uses two powers and one of them summons an enormous tsunami that comes crashing down on a villain. "Shouldn't you take it easy with that? You know it will hurt the body you're in" I say but he just shrugs it off. He's in another person's body and using too much power will hurt the vessel.

05.10: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 6½ hours

Supplements before bed: 2 x Omega-3

That's it! I know that dream was awesome. I think I flew around and used some powers of my own... Sadly I don't remember. Oh well, what can one do? Try harder!

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

Today I couldn't really remember a lot when I woke up, but over the day I started to remember some vague details:

this one was written during WBTB:
I'm in my old elementary school, I am helping people to install Dutch-programs (WTH!!) because only the one for the last year works (the name had the letters 'SP' in it, wonder if that was a sign...). I try something with an old flashdrive to put R4-Chips in. Dream Recall minimal.

DS: Back at old elementary school, the old flashdrive I never use.

This is what I started to remember over the day, only some vague fragments:
Somethin with my crush' tarantula. I wrote something on my forehead with bleu pen (it may have been 'lucid' god, I'm really missing the hints...) and felt like I should wash it of, it worked. I remember the feeling of the pen and the washing of feeling very real. Something with a red haired girl in a white parka (may have been a charrie from a book I read). Something with a snow-covered hill. Someone (female, with dreadlocks) is getting hit by several people, woman stopping it. Something with some sort of indians (the sort of indians from America, not India).

DS: The tarantula acting odd, writing on my own forehead, indians

1. My mom's side of the family was having at party at someone's house. I am not sure where it was located, and at this point in the dream, I don't know what it is for. We all sit at a large, white table to eat dinner. I can see out the window that it is late. I went over to my little cousin Lauren, who was having pasta. In the pasta was green peppers, red peppers, and tomatoes. I gave her more tomatoes, but she did not mind. For some reason, I didn't know tomatoes were already in the pasta! I went over to my cousin Jeannine, since Adriana was texting on her phone. All of a sudden, everyone went to one couch and sat on it. It was 15 minutes to the New Year. When I saw the countdown, I woke up due to my alarm.

2. There was something about driving. I think I was driving and it was foggy outside.

3. I was at my aunt's house, but it looked exactly like my friend, Kyle's house. We were going to make a haunted house. My little cousins would scare people by swinging down from zip lines located in the house.
