dream fragment

Key: Non-Lucid, Lucid, Commentary/Notes, Hypnagogic Hallucinations

This is all I can piece together from a rather uneventful dream. Maybe something exciting happened in the middle that I don't recall... heh.

It was the first day of term. I was back at secondary school, although I think I was in my final year. I walked through the front gates and looked around at all the people. School sucks, I thought. I was looking around for familiar faces but couldn't see anyone. The only people I recognised were P, G, and B. I never liked G and B much, but P was an all-right guy so I had a chat with him. Then I remember being in my old geography classroom briefly.

I was hanging out with some friends at J's house. I left my coat there, but didn't realise until I was getting on the bus home. I had a carrier bag with change in it, and I fumbled around to find money. When I got home I realised that J was going away on holiday the next morning so I got my dad to drive me back over to his house to pick up my coat. It was important since my wallet and keys were in the pockets.

Yeah... what an exciting dream... -_-'

Date: July 10, 2010
Non-Lucid
Duration: Long but fragmented :/

I was the main character of a game that remembers me about the Na'Vi (in the Avatar movie) and I had to collect coins and weapons to defeat enemies and such. The main objective was to collect ancient artifacts, which together would make a treasure appear.

It was long and fragmented because I dont remember every move I made, and because I have the notion that it was relatively long..

Slept between 0300-1000
Found out that lucid weaver's alarm rings don't ring if the phone is on silent... : I forgot to turn my phone back on normal, last night

Work fragment
First bit of the dream had to do with food. Then being on the phone with Rachel (boss), and also something regarding Elijah (co-worker).

Weird dream
I remember sleeping. I woke up into the dream. I'm living with my parents, but we are in a house different than my RL one.

[Dr. House]
House approaches my boyfriend and I. "I've found the answer to my problem!" he says.
"He's so cute," I think.
"I'm evicting you!" House says.
"WHAT?!"
"I'm evicting you. That's the answer to my problem," he says, matter of factly.
"You know, we're paid up in full, so you have to give us 30 days notice, at least."
"Sure, whatever," he says.

[Living with the ex]
Somehow, my ex, Joe, learns about my plight. He invites Jack, my mum and myself to live with him in his basement. I don't remember much about this scene, other than him getting the wrong idea about something (like me putting the moves on him?) and me pointing out that I wouldn't be doing that, especially with my boyfriend living with us, too!

[Going out]
I've just woke up again. I find that mum and Jack are going out to Walmart. They were going to leave without me, cos they knew I just woke up and hadn't ate yet. I said I didn't care, if they could wait 5 minutes, I'll get dressed. I didn't want to be left alone with my ex.

[Kinky shop]
I must've gotten left alone anyways, because I next found myself in a very kinky shop. I became barely semi-lucid... I remember thinking to myself, "I don't want to buy anything kinky, because I don't want to journal it!" I found this other bit in the store where they were selling sleep masks. They were supposed to be those ones that are really, really good and completely blacks out the sun, even if you're staring at it. I was holding them in my hands when I woke up.

The Biker at the Laundry. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Fourth night in a row with +6 dreams recalled. I think I am getting into my goal of 5-6 dreams recalled per single night. I've been recalling a minimum of 2-3 dreams for over a month! So I am super happy. Not the best night dream-wise though.
Third of the night:

- Outdoors.
- Something about a bike.
- The biker was male.
- There was a Laundry.
- Two of something.

Missed dream signs:
- I saw two of something I cannot recall.

What I would have done if lucid:
- Unknown due fragmented dream.

Asking a guy to leave (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Fourth night in a row with +6 dreams recalled. I think I am getting into my goal of 5-6 dreams recalled per single night. I've been recalling a minimum of 2-3 dreams for over a month! So I am super happy. Not the best night dream-wise though.
Second of the night:

I was indoors in some sort of restaurant. The restaurant had several rounded wooden tables. I was asking a guy to leave the establishment but he rejected to. I was going to use water to make him leave.
I can recall the number 22.

Missed dream signs:
- The number 22. (I think it is two 2s)

What I would have done if lucid:
- Ask the DC why did he not want to leave.

First I am involved in a paint-ball fight in the middle of a mall. Unfortunately, I suddenly remembered I left my gun back at home, so I had to run from the blaze of gun fire while unable to defend myself. I don't remember much more than that.

_________

I am walking through the first level of a 2 level mall, and I am following my parents through it. I start to stare at a symbol on a marble wall that was isolated in the middle of the mall. Although I "knew" I was not in a dream (haha or so I thought), I decided to try and do a reality check on the metal symbol on the marble wall. I looked away and looked back at the symbol 3 times, and it did change small details about it.

"Holy shit, am I dreaming!? But it feels too real to be a dream, everything looks somewhat normal..." I told myself

I decided to try and see if I was dreaming by aiming my arm at an object on the second level in the mall, and tried to make it explode with my mind. Nothing... I guess I am not dreaming. One more RC to see if I am.

So, I chose to close my nose with my fingers to see if I was able to breath still. I was, but it felt like I was barely able to. It felt like there was a small crack that my fingers didn't cover that allowed me to breath a bit, and it seemed realistic to me at the time. So, I decided I was not dreaming in the end...

As the dream continued and any lucidity left was completely gone, I walked up to the symbol I was doing RCs on before and took it down. I continued to walk around the mall with my parents with the large metal awkward looking symbol in my hand. I remember that I continued to do RCs on it through the rest of the dream, but the symbol changed very little every time. Thus, no lucid.

Note: Next time I am not sure whether the RC was successful or not, continue to use different RCs until I am positive I am in or not in a dream...

1. I've taken the day off to go shopping with the parents. We go to a Wal-Mart, and as usual I start goofing off. However, I soon find myself in a section of the store I've never visited before. It's a "premium" section, one for the extremely rich, even though the prices are still advertised as rollback (Fuck me, another failed text RC). They're selling things like ultralight airplanes and antique cars, but in the back I find a couple of Tour de France level bicycles. The first one I try has the wheels attached backwards, making it impossible to use, but the second is allright. I take it and start riding around the store with the wind in my hair, and feel silly but happy.
As I ride back to return the bike, my cell phone goes off (with the RL ringtone). I pull it out of my shorts, but with only one hand on the wheel I have no way to control what happens next. I crash through two panes of heavy glass in the back of the store, and stumbling from the wreckage fall over a plane! The manager comes up, angrily demanding that we pay, but my Dad only has $400 on him. I start to freak out.

2. I'm answering questions on Twocansandstring.com (an awesome website), when someone asks about spinach and Popeye. I start to answer, but wander outside to underneath a tree at my research station. V and one of the grad students wander over to me. V makes awkward small talk as the grad student strokes her, and I feel extreme jealousy.

3. Las Vegas has become a post-apocalyptic wasteland ruled by pop-punk style overlords. The streets, however, are filled with legions of metalhead zombies. Something happens to one of the rulers, and I see the teeming throngs rise up to take back control of the city.

Shooting again:

I was brad pit against Angelina Jolie. She was threatening to kill me with her giant army. I wanted to show her how good I was at shooting. I started shooting the heads off of people in her army with my rifle. I was getting all head shots and they were all missing. I was climbing a ladder and killing them all before I got shot and it reset. I was back at the beginning about to start shooting. She said something that angered me and I started shooting them all again. This time I got hit after killing around 10 people.

Haunted house:
I don't remember writing this at all or the dream. This is what I wrote: Lived in haunted house. There were ghosts everywhere. Last thing was having sex on bed and faking sickness to take a rest.

Henesies house:
Was at henesies house. It was a mix of being outside and inside. Her parents wanted to talk to me about something, but were afraid it would offend me. I told them to just say it. They told me that they were changing lucys name to rossie. I laughed and said I could not care less. I hung out with them and ate some incredible swedish meatballs. I was on my back to my house with bella on a leash. I kept tugging her to go faster and she morphed into a beautiful woman. She told me it was really ungraceful to be tugging at her all the time. I apologized and walked into my house. There was a threesome going on in the bed downstairs. I ignored it and started making some chicken. I later went over and played the Wii with my friend dustin.

My death:
This was super vivid and really weird. We were high up on some mountains. There was a guide showing us around. He ended up telling us that we were going to be sacrificed to the mountain. There were four chambers, fire, earth, water, air. Each person would go into the chamber and a giant wall of spikes would come down and smash you. Your body would then be released into the water. I accepted my death and was not scared. I had a little churning in my stomach, but ignored it. I was really happy that I was fire and I thought that it fit my description. The ritual had begun and I looked to my right to see the first person get smashed. Blood splattered everywhere. I was happy that it happened so fast because it would be painless. This dream was SUPER real. I knew that I would be dieing so I prepared myself for the separation of my body and energy. I started chanting in a different language. I felt much power in my words and started floating. It was my turn. I kept chanting and floating towards the chamber. I was in the chamber and heard the spikes being released. I was smashed into a little pile. I felt a little pain and was released instantly into the water. I started sinking. I could feel a slight turning sensation and felt the color blue. It was really peaceful for a second. I forgot who I was and what was happening and just relaxed. I kept going deeper and deeper until I woke.

Playing tennis:
I was playing tennis with Kara Wii sports style. It was two on two. We kept losing and I would get really pissed because I would lose no matter how I hit the ball. Every time I hit the ball it would slightly hit the net and sink. This kept going on for a while until I stopped playing.

Super close lucid:
I really need to figure out my rc's better because this should have been lucid. I was in the park with Kara. We walked over to the lake and laid down for a bit. Some kid was throwing basketballs into the river. I remember looking around and admiring the beauty or the park. The colors seemed to glow. This reminded me of being on shrooms and I decided that I might be dreaming. I turned away from kara so she could not see me do a nose pinch and nose pinched. I could breath a tiny bit, but decided that wasn't enough for me to risk trying to fly. I just looked around and thought that this felt like a dream and was really surreal. I am pretty sure this is a dream I kept thinking. I had a basketball in my hand and it popped making me forget about the thought of dreams. I went back to my house and to my room. I started cleaning it and got a call from henesie. She said she was going out later to show her sister a good time and asked if I wanted to go with her. I said yes and continued cleaning.

Furniture Shopping (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I recalled three dreams tonight. I went to bed late as I had a busy day and I had to write down eleven dreams from the previous night.
Third one of the night:

- I met with an angel.
- Someone guessed something about my house.
I had to place a few phone calls to furniture stores. I was trying to find out about their furniture for the decor of different rooms. After the calls, I had to drive somewhere. It was raining and it was very dark. It was night and my vision was not so good. I was going downhill on the freeway and I was forced to enter from the left lane. I could see another ramp on my right. There was one of this speed radar signs. The sign said "11" It was squared and the light was orange.
A DC told me that my body craved a little more exercise.
I arrived to a furniture store and I was trying to gather some information from a female associate with dark long hair and heavy build. She did not provide all the information I needed, so I looked for her again. I saw her reflection in a mirror.

Missed dream signs:
- The Angel.
- The freeway (it was not one that I know)
- The odd sign.
- The number 11. (I think it is two 1s)

What I would have done if lucid:
- Talk with the DC that told me that about exercise.
- Maybe head for a ToTY.

Room changes. (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I recalled three dreams tonight. I went to bed late as I had a busy day and I had to write down eleven dreams from the previous night.
Second one of the night:

I was talking about two dreams and about becoming lucid on one the dreams were I was at the moment. I was told I was able to change the decor of my room with the help of a DC so I would turn lucid the next time I saw my room.
I was wondering if the changes would take effect for even in waking.

I do not remember at what time I exactly had this lucid. Is definitely one of my worsts lucids that I can recall. I was not even thinking straight in this dream and it was very short. I lost lucidity at some point but I do not remember what happened next.

Missed Dream Signs:
- None.

Dream Sign Noticed:
- None.

Reality Check Performed:
- None. Already lucid. Awful quality.

Disaster? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I recalled three dreams tonight. I went to bed late as I had a busy day and I had to write down eleven dreams from the previous night.
First one of the night:

I was working in the Pata Negra store. I was talking with a customer about a catastrofe that was going to happen in a near time. I was wondering if there was any possibility of saving the store.

Missed Dream Signs:
- Unknown.

What I would have done if lucid:
- Ask the DC what catastrofe and why?

1. I'm completely out of money at a mall, so I get my dad to give me some quarters. I then take these to go play DDR at an arcade. I'm able to find a freestyle hands-and-feet mode (menu is in text, so failed RC) and happily punch in to play. I am disappointed, though, since the interface isn't the clean shining one I know and love. The whole thing is grainy, and there are no arrows, only solid streams of pixels for notes. I enjoy the techno nonetheless, performing for my parents and some random guy, and I get a high score. As I enter my name in all caps into the machine, my dad makes a wisecrack about how freestyle should be "horse behind the ass" style.

2. Mom is having an affair with some man in New England. She hides it for a while, but eventually she's found out to be pregnant and everything turns to shit.

July 7ish 2010

Synopsis: A strange man in my bedroom claims to be the deceased brother of my friend. I don't believe him.

I am No Name
I was having a false awakening. My bedroom is very strange, like it's a mix of every bedroom I've ever lived in. Family, friends and co-workers come in and out of my bedroom, waking me up, asking me random things. Every time I roll over and go back to sleep.

I get up, and when I turn around, there's a strange boy sitting on my bed. He seemed so comfortable in my space it might as well be his bedroom. He was very nice and soft spoken. I don't remember all of our conversation.

But then he says "I have multiple personalities."

I think all of my friends are crazy, so I say "Oh, it's okay."

He lowers his head. What happens next was so jarring it made me lucid, but only for a few brief moments.

His head, hanging low, starts to shake violently! The hair transforms from brown to black. The neck completely detaches from the body as if on a hinge. The freed head-neck makes a complete 360 degree turn, going in and out of the chest as if it was only air. The head slowly raises up, and the neck snaps back into place.



His face completely changed!

"I am No Name. . . 'J'. . ."

I thought he was trying to steal my name! " 'J' is my name!"

He turns towards one of my drawings. "Did you use color pencils for this?"

"Yes! I had to buy a lot of pencils, it took me hours to finish it."

He looks around my room, and looks at me as if he's trying to analyze me. I wonder why he's so interested in me or why he's here on my bed. Then he tells me,

"I am Chris' brother."

I have no idea who's he talking about. I sorta know a Chris, but he doesn't a brother. Or does he mean a different Chris? When it's clear that he's confused me he changes his original statement.

"I am 'R's brother."

R is my friend from work. Her brother died years ago, and she isn't comfortable talking about it, at least not with me. So he was claiming to be her deceased brother visiting me in a dream.

"Really? You're R's brother?"

"Yes. And my name is spelled with two E's, not one."

"Oh, I didn't know that." Actually, I don't know what Rs brother name is.

He asks me "Is the family still living down on Wurzbach."

"No??"

But the question didn't make any sense to me. Because as far as I know R's family never lived on that road. They don't even live in this city!

Hey, I've got questions for him. "She doesn't talk about you. (It was years ago). Why doesn't she talk about you?"

He looks annoyed with my question and stands up. His face transforms again. This time he's anglo with fiery blond hair. I don't know what compelled me to say it, but I yell at him.

"Did you ever did anything to her? Did you ever hurt her in any way?"

He's pissed now! "WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT? HUH? WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY!" He nearly knocks down half of my room. I don't like that angry look in his eyes.

I woke up shortly after.

I was too scared to ask my friend if her family ever did live on a road wurzbach. Or if her brothers name is spelled with two Es. I figure this dream character isn't who he says he is, except that he has No Name.

Tonight was pretty crazy. I felt like the whole night was filled with dreams. I feel my mind getting accustomed to what dreams are and how to recognize them. When I woke up this morning I was a little confused. It felt as if I slept did not sleep, but lived another day. Almost like one day was 48 hours because so much happened, it was like another day. Even thought there were no lucids (painfully close) it was a great night.

50 CENT:
we had a mini family gathering at a club. 50 cent was there performing. I kept trying to say hi to him, but he was ignoring me. When it was his time to go up he started singing, but was attacked by a couple of kids. I ran and held one of the kids down. He thanked me. I looked at the kid and saw that he turned into a black cat. The cat kept struggling and trying to get out of my grasp. I just laughed.

basketball game:

I was at tryouts for our basketball team in school. The kid that was trying out was already on the team in real life. Today he was really sick and could not play well at all. he would miss the basket by a long shot. The other team members would vouch for him and say he was really good. I kept going in this persons body for a second and dribbling before going back out. Later a game was about to start. I was in uniform about to leave as all the cheerleaders started coming in. My friend dustin and owen were there to cheer me on. All the cheer leaders were giving me looks but one stood out from the crowd. She bumped into me and I asked her to follow me for a sec. I took her out near me car and started to kiss her. She moved away, but I just laughed and tried again. I noticed dustin and owen watching me. We started making out and I was feeling her up. I realized that she had my perfect ass. Not too hard, not too soft .

I left the game and went to go meet up with some people. They were the crew from always sunny. We went on some epic quest to get a scroll. We ended up in some ice town and were climbing a mountain. We started walking on a narrow glacier and found the scroll. On the way back frank from always sunny kept complaining that it was too hard for him. One of the guys pretended to help him, but ended up throwing him off the cliff. He fell and broke his neck. We realized that the fall was only 6 feet and went down to see if he was really dead. He was.

Later we were doing a live set on tv. The broadcast was telling us how funny and inappropriate we were and that maybe we should be pulled off the air. We kept laughing and making jokes around the table.

Missed vacation:
Kara picked me up naked. She had a total of six boobs and six nipples. The boobs were piled on top of each other and looked freaky. I was thinking of ways to break up with her and realized that I was not attracted to her because of this. We got to my house and went upstairs to the computer. On facebook my cousin said he sent me the money I asked for, but said he that he bought me a vacation package and took the money out of it instead. The picture on facebook showed someone laying on a tube on some tropical paradise. He said that would have been me if I spent my money wisely. I remember laughing because my name was spelt way wrong on the ticket.

Rocket launcher fun:
We were playing a shooting game in real life. I was no weapon and was about to die. My friend was laughing at me saying I was about to lose when I found a double barrel shot gun. I started blasting away at the two people and destroyed them. My friend was really impressed and asked how I was so good. I found a rocket launcher and blasted one person away. Then there was this one girl that almost killed me. I went around for 10 minutes trying to blast her, but she dodged all my shots. Later I stopped trying to kill her and took my helmet off and asked her why she did not kill me. She took her helm off and was this really cute girl. I told her that she probably thought I was cute and liked me. She was laughing and kinda agreed. We were holding hands when the Sargent came up to us and told us this was forbidden. We were planning on killing him before I woke up.

Hot for teacher:

I had this smoking hot teacher at school. She never wore a bra and looked amazing. I asked her if she could help me with some homework after school. She agreed and said that we should study at my house because it would be awkward if we studied at her place because of her boyfriend. This gave me the idea that she had some intentions. I did not want to take her to my place because it was too far away and I still live with my mom. Plus the girl I am seeing might be there. I ended up deciding to meet her at a bar. We met at the bar and talked for a while. We ended up walking to some random persons trampoline and started having rough sex. There was a family passing by and they were watching us. I got freaked out and wanted to stop, but the teacher told me to shut up and keep going. We ended up going back to the bar and she started being a bitch to me and telling me to buy her stuff.

Failed false awakening:
This was the last dream of the night. Michael and I were walking around the park with bella. There was a mini cut scene with my other dog lucy walking through my school. She used to go with me all the time. A random girl walked by and asked me how I was doing. She was cute and I decided to talk to her a bit. Turned out she knew who I was and told me they weren't letting lucy back into the school. I was really pissed off and she said she would help me write a petition. We started driving to my house. Michael waited outside while I went in to say hello.

The first thing I noticed was how different my house was. there was another door to the entryway on the left. On the right was my living room. All the furniture was new and really good looking. I went into the office and saw that it was three times as big with a fireplace. Both my mom and brother were playing on the computer with supper wide screens. I walked into the living room and started thinking that this could be a dream. I normally do a nose RC, but I have been sick lately and thought the night before I would just try and float. I tried to jump and float but my foot got caught on the couch and I fell on my face.

Later I went over to Michael who was trying to get a loan and found out that he was super in debt. The teller was really pissed at him because he spent so much of his money on some girl. They were talking for a bit before I told Michael that I needed to wake up and get my day started. I have a lot of studying to do.

My family had gotten a new computer. I might have been telling Axel about it. I read a story on the internet about a mom who had saved her son's face by tinkering with a chair. I also had a new laptop, which I spilled some crumbs on. I decided to make a new website and delete my old one (I actually had a couple of these), saying that the new one would be body part-free. Then I saw that I had every unit of my Biology class neatly organized into pages about everything we learned. I didn't want to delete it because it was so much work.

*yawn* I should stop watching Grey's Anatomy before bed. Tonight will be more interesting, really.
