    Fragment of Dreams

    1. Zombies, 9/11, And Hard To Recall.

      by , 09-11-2010 at 02:58 PM
      (This was a three-part dream from me constantly waking up. I'm going to have to find a better solution for this.)

      The first dream involved zombies. Granted, it wasn't a very large zombie area, but I remember that I had to get to something and zombies were in the way.

      Very, VERY short. Inspired by all the Resident Evil: Apocolypse trailers I've been seeing everywhere.

      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      I was in one of the WTC towers when it was hit by one of the airplanes. I had my golden retriever, Sam, with me, but shortly after that, I saw that everybody was going to lose it. So I shouted, "it's okay. Stay calm, and we're going to be okay. We're going to start taking the stairs outside."

      We were on the lower building levels, and surprisingly, everybody did as I asked them too. We all began to walk out of the building calmly, as though we were doing a drill instead of a response to a terrorist attack. My dog was seperated from me, and I wanted to call out his name, panic, and run to him, but I knew I couldn't.

      People would freak out if I did. So when I evacuated the building, I wrang out my hands and asked a fireman to help me locate my dog - but Sam came trotting out when I called his name.

      I lead him away from the building and towards someplace safer, petting him all the while.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      This one was more difficult to recall. I know that I was wondering where the hell something was, and I was helping my friend build something for HIS friend.

      I'd met this somewhat cute guy when I woke up. He had a couple of facial piercings, and I remember he said he was on the East Coast (or somewhere close to it).

    2. Back to it...

      by , 09-11-2010 at 02:22 PM
      Time to get back to basics for a little bit.

      I slept far too long last night, probably about 10 hours. Woke after about seven and didn't remembe much, dozed off...

      Dream 1

      I got to work an the store had been merged with another store. So now it was twice as big, there was a counter in the middle and on one side was my store and on the other side was some kind of book store/gift store. Run by an Asian girl. I wondered where the other girl was.

      I spent ages looking through the books for old Tintin books. I found some that ha never been published. I found one, written by a different author, that was only a few pages long, and kind of bad, but the only one authorised to be written by a different author.

      I had to serve someone, for the other store, and had to run it through my computer. It was confusing.

      Dream 2

      There was a platform, in the middle of nowhere. Surrounded by forest, caves, hills, forest, impenetrable cliffs. It was like a setting from Halo. There were two teams, and we were running around shooting at each other. It went from Halo, to being like a game of paintball. It was like a a mystical sort of place.

      I remember hiding in a tent. I ran out shooting, got shot. There was someone (who?) standing at the entrance to a cave, but I couldn't go in.

      Dream 3

      I was on the phone to Daniel, talking about Shea. I had to go to work to pick up the new Halo game. I took a shortcut. It was a long rolling road, like through a freeway, lots of roads, lots of empty barren land in between, a rolling path criss crossing the country side.

      I came to a big cave. I was with two others.

      The guy at the counter said, "It's not out yet, I can't sell it to you."

      I went through a doorway to their storage area, hundreds of legendary editions piled up. I grabbed one and went back to him. "It is out."

      He said, "I hope you guys are right."

      And he started calling his customers to tell them it was available. People started coming. I got a text message from Daniel. People were lining up. I got a call from Optus about my reception issues. We followed a path around the outside of the cave, and it came to a huge park area.

      The cave, park, green spaces, trees, waterfall, pond, etc. A dreamlike area. I was with Rob and Snowy. There were dinosaurs. It was a Halo theme park. But it wasn't. A huge 3D generated hologram of a flying dinosaur flew at us, out of the sky, and down towards us.

    4. #143. Capture the Flag

      by , 09-11-2010 at 07:10 AM (Things to Run Away From Really Fast)
      Fun dream, but the writing's kind of screwy.

      Moving out of Saskatchewan! Maybe I'll stop dreaming about "Ixburg".

      09/10/10



      I've de-aged again. I have the impression of messy black hair, and apparently I'm Harry Potter. Cool.

      I'm also trapped in a cave.

      "I can't let ya leave, 'Arry," explains Hagrid, turning to a conveniently placed stove to pull a kettle off the boil, "The Ministry won' allow it."

      "I see." I'm standing with my hands at my sides, eerily calm. The lack of expression seems to unnerve him.

      I'm unconcerned. Hagrid has already given away the secret, and he has his back turned.

      I raise my right hand. "Imperio."

      I walk out into blue skies.

      time skip

      In the time since I've left the cave, I've fought off a few extra-inept stormtroopers, easily taken care of. (I actually wasn't sure about one. Thought he might have been a shadow-trooper, but he died easily enough.)

      I had another encounter with Berserker!Hagrid. Apparently three layers of Imperius spells don't do anything positive to your sanity.

      Beat him.

      Now I'm wandering around Ixburg, heading toward the east end of town for some reason.

      I'm trying to fly. Annoyed that it's not working. I can manage some of the jumps, but I can't stay in the air.

      Standing in the center of an open road, I concentrate on growing red, hawk-like wings. They extend from my arms, so I don't have to concentrate on a new set of limbs. I flap the wings, and take off.

      Passing the warehouses on the edge of town, I notice Imperials swarming the place. Apparently it's their base.

      I stand across from Darth Vader.

      "I am your father."

      I'm unimpressed.

      We fight, but he fades into the background.

      I remember Capture the Flag, from Jedi Academy. That was fun.

      A stormtrooper holds the blue flag, and is standing on top of the empty red base. He's waiting for someone to return the flag so he can score.

      I force push him off the building, and he goes crashing into the corrugated siding of another warehouse. Dead already. Hn. Blue flag returned.

      The blue team scores, and I grab the red flag. Darth Vader's still lurking around here somewhere. Something's glitching on him, maybe? He can't jump onto the roof.

      I fly off toward the hospital on the other side of town, the blue base, after sprouting another set of wings. I wonder how I'm carrying the flag without hands. I try not to think about it. Maybe I'm holding it with my teeth.


      In another dream, I'm standing in a hallway, looking at the men's and women's bathrooms, which are side by side. I have no fucking clue which one to use.

    5. Violent Waves

      Violent Waves (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I went to play cards with my friends like most Thurdays. The game lasted longer than usual so I end up going to bed almost at 3 AM. In addition, my fingers decided to hurt badly... I had a bad and short sleep... but wow! Still recall. I think its near impossible for me to wake up with 0 recall. Yay!!!! Just fragments for this night though:

      - I was at the beach.
      - It was very sunny and my wife wanted to go to some place.
      - I was with a few different friends and a lot happened.
      - I was in the water, it was around 5'8'' deep and the water was on my neck. The waves were very hard and the water was like muddy. The waves would hit me and cover me in water. I felt like little stones hitting my face and I was uncomfortable.

      Missed dream signs:
      - I was probably at the Costa Brava beach (do not confuse with Pata Negra's Restaurant. Costa Brava is a beach in Spain where the waves are very violent (brava means rage) Such beach is in Spain and I am in California... so impossible in waking.

      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Head for a ToTY.

    6. Techno Prank Call

      by , 09-11-2010 at 06:00 AM
      I had a medium-length detailed dream, of which I remember a fragment... it was lunch break at my school, but my school was some sort of residential summer program at some college that had a very environmental campus, incorporating caves into the architecture and stuff... in the restroom, instead of urinals or toilets there was a trough carved out into the dirt which you had to squat over, it was gross... I got lunch from some sort of cafeteria line, it was hot food (prepared), and sat at a table to eat lunch with some IRL friends... they were all only friends who are in a grade above mine, or in college, though, which is interesting... then, end of fragment, I woke up and went back to sleep...

      Next dream (this one is short, but I do remember all of it):

      I was in the downtown district of a city, walking around outside, when some guy called my cell phone. He used a soundboard of a guy with a synthesized, techno-sounding voice (with beats in the background whenever he talked) to supply his parts of the conversation... classic prank call.

      Then I went into a store, and leaned over a mannequin... this lady with black hair in a yellow shirt appeared, who had been prank called too. The guy making the calls appeared as well. They talked, then went into a dressing room to have sex even though the lady was a lesbian (?)... and then the dream ended.
    7. I had cards from the next set

      I went to play cards with my friends like most Thurdays. The game lasted longer than usual so I end up going to bed almost at 3 AM. In addition, my fingers decided to hurt badly... I had a bad and short sleep... but wow! Still recall. I think its near impossible for me to wake up with 0 recall. Yay!!!! Just fragments for this night though:

      - Magic the Gathering.
      - I was with some friends and I had some cards from the next set
      - I was indoors at the regular place where we play.

      Missed dream signs:
      - I had cards from the next set which will be released in a couple weeks.

      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Investigate my dream for card combos.

    8. Shoes and Underage Driving

      by , 09-11-2010 at 05:31 AM (Guessadoodle's Dream Journal)
      Shoes and Underage Driving

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Fragment:
      • Something about taking off and putting on shoes.
      • I remembered driving, although I'm only 16. I wasn't very good at it, of course, and having no experience in driving I perceived pressing the accelerator slightly will take me really fast. I remembered me driving my family.
      • I also remembered scraping the car against the curb.


      Note: I just bought pills that contain 3mg of melatonin and Vitamin B6. I'll try taking them tonight and I'll report tomorrow for some results.

    9. Sept 10 2010 - Abandoned

      by , 09-10-2010 at 11:31 PM (Mah Journal)
      Just some brief fragment of being in class and KE sitting with someone else. The person in front of me asked me where he was and I shrugged. She suggested that maybe I was too boring for him. That's all I remember.

    10. 9 Sep: encounters with friends, hacking a building and groceries

      by , 09-10-2010 at 04:07 PM (Lucid-schizo-dreamer)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID FALSE AWAKENING RPG

      23:50 GMT – Sleep

      Lucid imagery and tasting words
      The first sleep is always hard to recall but when I woke up from this I knew for sure I had been lucid. I think I fell asleep focused on the hypnagogic imagery and didn’t really enter a dream, was just staying lucid observing the sequence of images and then I tasted words. [I’ve heard of people tasting colours, but this was new for me]. Unfortunately I can only recall this but not describe the actual sensation.

      2:20 GMT

      Library encounter
      I am at this roundabout close to my mom’s home and I discover a new library opened right there. I recall when I was in high school and spent so much good time in the municipal library and decided to go inside check the conditions and maybe start coming frequently. I check the novelties shelf in the entrance, I pick some book and sit on a couch. I notice this guy JF, whom I know from college and haven’t seen in a while (although we communicate by email), but decide not to go to him and wait to see if he sees me. He comes to say hi, we talk a bit and then he asks me if I’m staying longer, because he is leaving and could give me a ride.
      I say I’m still staying as I just arrived, but then he ask if I came on foot and points out that it is starting to rain and I’m not prepared for rain. I look down and I’m wearing skirt and sabrinas and the weather is definitely becoming nastier. So I say, ok you’re right, I accept the ride.
      But when I looked down I also saw I had pantyhose on one leg but not on the other and they were also quite dirty. What the hell! So as we leave the building, I first sneak behind the entry desk and try to take off the pantyhose. He comes back looking for me and finds me with skirt up, pantyhose down and trying to adjust my underwear who also got out of place with this tricky move. Embarrassing, but he just does his best to ignore and tells me I forgot money on a table in front of the couch I was sitting on. I did? So I go back and find a lot of coins on the table. Think it was not so much and shouldn’t really care about it, but he says that it doesn’t matter, it is my money, I should take it. Ok, ok. As I start putting it in my purse, the coins transformed into pieces of fruit and in the end my purse was full of fruit salad.


      Hacking a building
      There’s an announcement about the day with no cars (happens every year) and immediately I see the roads with no cars and a family cycling around the neighbourhood. They go up a ramp and I follow them – until now I was just watching but now I materialize. On top of this ramp is actually a dead end so I wonder where they disappeared into. When I turn back, this is no longer a street but actually a closed precinct, like the backrooms of some public or governmental facility. Then I find myself with 2 other friends and we make a challenge to each other – break in, do the tour of the building and leave without a trace. There are vigilance cameras everywhere, so it won’t be easy. As soon as I leave this room, the hallway has a camera and I know it is just a matter of time until a guard appears. I just have enough time to break in the door at the end of the hallway, my friends follow me and we close and block the door when the guard is about to catch us. Now we face a new challenge as this room has no other exit. We decide to go through a vent and get out on the control room, where the guards should be, but since they are still trying to break in the first room we blocked, now we can hack their computers and tapes and delete all recordings about our little adventure. As my two others friends are deleting the files, my attention goes to a corner where there is a basket full of teddy bears. I wonder what they are doing there and can’t resist to go through them, looking for one that is cuter and eventually take it with me, but in the end, they are all cute but none really stands out so I leave them, wondering why guards need teddy bears.
      The door of this control room is locked electronically – so nobody enters or exits, while the guards are out – but my friends broke in the code and tell me a sequence we’ll need to insert on this door and a next door we will find. But hey, I’m distracted with toys, so I don’t recall the numbers. Fortunately my friends are better concentrated and remember it for me. When we unlock all the doors, we find ourselves moving to an entrance lobby with visitors and a kid notices we’re coming out of a restricted access area and asks us if we should be there. I smile at her and tell her no, that we’re hackers but we didn’t do any harm, we were just having a bit of fun and ask her to keep a secret.


      Buddha Neo
      Someone tells me “Did you know there’s a secret short movie that is a crossover of Little Buddha and Matrix?” No, I don’t know about that!!! So then I’m showed this amazing film with Keanu Reeves playing Neo (of course) and then he finds the truth inside the truth and becomes the Buddha (he also played Little Buddha) and the Buddha hacks the Matrix and kicks some asses, but also sits to meditate as Neo. Weird stuff but awesomely cool. I would love to see that movie!


      4:45 GMT

      A very quiet friend
      I am at a lobby of some building with my dad, close to a desk. We’re waiting for someone or something, but it’s totally deserted. He makes some remarks how he feels uncomfortable with these places, especially when some weird people comes by – better beware of your purse - like... for example this guy that is coming in now! I wonder why he says that, it’s just my good friend H.L. from Estonia, whom I don’t see for a few years. I don’t mention this to him and simply go to my friend, also to scare my dad a little. He recognizes me and smiles but when I hug him he is distant and not really replying the hug. Then a blond girl with a kid appears and I wonder if they are together. Ok, but that’s no reason to be cold towards a friend. The girl finds this corner for kids, with a little castle for kids to play inside, and she leaves the kid there. I try to break the ice by saying how I would have loved to have one of those when I was a kid, but all I had was chairs, blankets and a lot of imagination. But she also doesn’t reply.


      Sharing memories from Brussels
      I’m in the middle of the street opening a letter that just arrived in my mailbox and I’m surprised to see it’s a renewal card for going to the cinema with discount, in Brussels! I don’t live in Brussels for more than 3 years and I also wonder how they got my new address.
      Coincidentally, I see this lady which I know from tv, she is an actress and I know she lived in Brussels to and misses it a lot. So I start talking to her showing her the card and asking if she knows what’s about. She was totally surprised and didn’t first understand what I wanted. But as she looks closer to the card, she knows what I mean and makes a big smile. I tell her I also lived in Brussels and we start walking together exchanging stories about this city. It’s so rare to find someone who lived there and actually loved it, everybody always complains about the weather. As we walk we pass by this abandoned lot and I notice a lot of garbage, a few vegetable gardens and 2 dogs who soon start fighting. When I look again to my way, we encounter a friend of hers who’s waiting her with a car, we say goodbye and she leaves.


      Buying groceries
      I’m shopping on this little town grocery shop some food for me and taking to some group I’m hosting. I buy some tomatoes, eggs and I see these amazing carrots that are labelled organic but cost only 90 cts/kg. I find too cheap and ask the grocer if these are locally produced, by some villager or so. He confirms and goes about saying how amazing these carrots are, delicious and that he misses when all vegetables were so tasty and not these plastic chemical-filled things we eat nowadays. He starts talking about the wonders of organic farming and I smile. I want to tell him he his preaching to a converted, but he is now turning to some other clients, some villagers who are asking something about his ham. The grocer goes to the backroom and comes back with a piece of ham. He cuts bits for others to taste. But first he tastes it itself in a very ritualised manner and I realise the guy is a gourmet an totally obsessed about quality food. Before he also offers me some ham and then I have to explain why I’m vegetarian I turn away and pretend to shop some more stuff.


      7:10 GMT – Wake up

    11. Weird waterfall park

      by , 09-10-2010 at 02:28 PM (Azra's Dream Journal)
      Another short, unsuccessful night for recall. I only remember a fragment of one dream which is as follows:

      #1
      The setting was almost like a cross between a water park and some kind of natural water resevoirs, stepped at increasing levels to make some really beautiful waterfalls. I was with my friend and her brother, and we were just chilling out as if on holiday. There's a blank in my recall after that, until I end up talking with her brother at the top of one of the pools by the entrance. For some reason, my friend had transformed into a housefly, and we'd managed to lose her in the pools somewhere. Not questioning the change but pretty frantically, we started searching for her. I remember finding a fly being washed down the waterfalls, so I jumped down and picked it up at the bottom, only for it to fly away into a wall. Some third person voice told me that it wasn't her, but then my friend and her brother suddenly came down the steps towards the entrance where I was standing. They looked fine, although the guy was a little pissed off at my messed up judgement.

      Then I woke up. A bit of a random, dull night, hopefully tomorrow will be more interesting!

    13. Wheelchars, Theatres, Sex and mosquitoes

      by , 09-10-2010 at 11:34 AM
      Me and my girlfriend were going down a hill. She was on a wheelchair, except it was just a medium sized steel drum (she doesn't normally use a wheelchair - her legs are fine). So I used a similar steel drum, sat her in my lap, and with both of ours together navigated down the hill. We passed several bikers and spoke favorably among them. I don't remember what was said. They were all very kind in moving out of hte way, although some of them were rather clumsy and took them a minute to realize they were still in the way.

      Then we went to a theatre on the edge of a cliff. It was large and very nice. The devil (recurring theme!) suggested we get her gussied up in red white and blue body paint and nothing else, and have our way with her. Everyone was enthusiastic about this and we got her ready. Strangely enough, there was enough body paint for the rest of us, and I was one of the first in line to bang my girlfriend's body painted behind. Thankfully, there were at least 2 other women who stepped up so my girl wouldn't have to take all the 'glory'.

      Before the action could start, though, my girl called me over and said, "We have a problem. ...this is what happened after just one shower... no scrubbing..." ...the colors were running at angles the way water would, and someone made a side comment about it being more like a British flag, and then

      A MOSQUITO THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO BUZZ MY EARS SO NOW I AM FULLY AWAKE AND GOING TO KILL IT

    14. Splitting Portions of Chicken (1st May 2010)

      Splitting Portions of Chicken (1st May 2010)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      (I forgot a lot of things in the dream. I could only recall the last few seconds.)

      We were in front of my school's staff room. Sharon had entered the room and was playing rock, paper, scissors with no one in particular. This was a time turning technique that Sharon has, but this time it failed because she was inside the staff room.

      I called Mr. Hazry out and told him that Sharon could not turn time in the staff room, but he replied, "I know." So then we were puzzled on how to split portions of the chicken.

      After much discussion, I suggested that we give him the chicken thigh, while we take the rest. Mr. Hazry agreed. Back in class, Sharon decided to make Chicken Curry with our portion of the chicken.


      I woke up.

    15. Just... odd.

      by , 09-10-2010 at 12:02 AM
      Dream of September 9th, 2010

      I remembered more of the dreams earlier in the day but after school I forgot most of the details.

      I remember warriors, fighting, and such and I remember ceiling cat appearing at one point to smite some dude.

      I later woke up at 4:00 and then went back to sleep.

      I dreamt that my family and I were walking our dogs Suka and Aurora. We went into someone’s yard without asking them and it made me a bit worried. Their yard was beautiful with many flowering trees and gardens. Later the owner of the house and yard came and gave us a ride in their helicopter.

      The dream later somehow transitioned from the helicopter to me riding on the front of the jeep. There were handles in the front but I sometimes accidentally put my feet on the ground while we were driving. After driving for a while we came to a forest and started to slow down. Finally, we stopped and I got off the jeep and everyone else got out of it.

      While walking down the road in the woods we encountered some strange chipmunk like creatures. They kind of freaked me out because their eyes were super wide and were placed too far apart. One of them walked up to me and bit me; it didn’t really hurt but it left a purple mark. I tried to push the chipmunk thing away but a bunch more came and also started biting me. Wherever they bit me a purple mark was left behind, soon after they started attacking me I woke up.
