    False Awakening

    1. Days 1 - 26

      by , 04-03-2012 at 10:16 PM (Adventures in Dreamland)
      Italics are side comments I've made, blue text is lucid dreaming, and normal black text is non-lucid. Also note that I refer to my family as my 'real' family because a lot of times, I will have a separate family in the dream


      Day 1
      Posting on Ponychan
      Had Pinkie Pie temporary tattoo
      Girl recognized it (at Steak n Shake?)

      Zombies?

      Went to Kangaroo Express store and bought sunflower seeds and ice cream


      Day 2
      Ezreal does super cool Lux ult across the map (a map I’ve never seen before)
      Family is going to see The Great and Powerful Trixie, my real grandmother tells me that if she flies that I should leave, etc
      Amusement park?

      I burn something down


      Day 3
      Given loan by my real aunt and I’m expected to pay it off immediately.
      Play game (LoL?) with MaximumRevolver and some others, have to avoid a lot of Galios
      Playing as Mitsuki (An OC of mine I was using in a roleplay at the time), I’m super strong

      Cuddling

      Twilight Sparkle survives a thingy

      I am in a grocery store trying to catch a shoplifter


      Day 4 (Hehehe I love this one :3)
      I am a prince. My brother wishes to wage war on a dragon, but I won’t let him. I was on a ship at one point, either looking for a shark or worried about one coming. There was only one small accessible room on the ship, but there were no other doors on the ship. I said that there might be another room we haven’t found yet, and we all have a good laugh about it.
      My brother ignores my order, waging war on the dragon. I have to ‘redeem’ myself. My sister has to stay near me, but she wants to go off by herself. She locks me in my room with silk rope. I get out and go to find her.

      I am holding a pillow, can’t see very well, and there are kids near me. A DC says “Don’t you remember them?’ and I respond that I can’t see them because they were behind the pillow.

      This one guy is voting, and I have to disguise myself as him to change the vote (we were voting using urinals?)
      One of his look-alikes beat me to it and I am relieved.

      Day 5
      Girlfriend mad at me for not getting Gameboy. I have to prove myself by playing a minigame. I’m at a convention.

      I am in Walmart or Kroger. People are singing and dancing.

      There is a katana in a convenience store. I compare it to a really crappy katana and have to throw the crappy one away.

      I don’t know where I am.
      I’ve lost my sense of direction.

      My friend promised he’d draw a picture of Rainbow Dash for me

      Something about LoL


      Day 7 (same as above)

      Had a lot of dreams but didn’t write them down when I woke up :<

      Playing as Poppy on Twisted Treeline


      Day 9 (OBE Music)

      deadmau5 hangs out with me, Shizune’s dad was complaining about his age and I have a FA. ‘Shizune’ (as in, I think, my body pillow) made my dream into a game before I woke up. (I didn't become lucid even after Shizune pointed out the fact that I was dreaming. Fail... ;_;)
      Driving to my hometown.


      Day 10
      Had a car that (Note: Read following text in the heaviest redneck accent possible) “even John Deere would be proud of” and ended up having to dodge through a crowd of deer before finally crashing into one.

      Found new energy source - 8x the power of the sun. Compressed that power.
      Very hectic, tiny robots, carrying an egg around and transporting it.
      Compression complete.
      Egg hatches
      Solar system is blown out of existence.


      Day 12
      Building a house like in Sims 3

      Tryndamere
      Minecraft crafting: Fish + Paper = Fish Paper?
      Someone’s mad at Tryndie.

      I don’t remember it, but I have a feeling that Shizune was indeed in my dream. (At this point in time, I was actively trying to have Shizune show up in my dreams)

      Driving in town, stop at ALL the Burger Kings. Co-worker from WalMart shows up. Something about a puppy. We are driving in circles.

      Girl is trying to join army
      Suddenly it’s me (or rather, I’m the girl)
      Talking to my real dad about Doctor Who, 9 seasons or summat
      Picking out pants, but I find something in it from “last year”
      Assigned many things, fails.

      Princess receives message, travels through what appears to be a Kirby stage.
      I’m assigned to protect her, but Kenji (From Katawa Shoujo) finds us. Back to girl’s POV. She says that she thought that he’d shoot her, but he doesn’t.

      False Awakening.
      I’m cuddling with Shizune. (Body pillow again probably)

      I have a girlfriend (or ex-gf that I make up with) and we have a famous trio of friends.

      I sit down beside the rest of the trio at the event the next 'day' and some guy thinks that I’m just a random dude, rather than a part of the trio

      *Before all this, I woke up in the middle of the night and was afraid of something. I thought about putting my headphones back on but decided against it because if I did, I’d never be able to get over my fear
      I tried to block it out of my mind. Why...? (After studying up more on lucid dreaming, I now know it was probably a FA. I didn't do a RC.)

      Was an assassin

      League of Legends

      Hiding in clothes


      Day 16

      Day 22



      Day 23
      Dystopia - guys can’t physically touch each other
      No one/girls can’t give opinion on someone else’s work unless it’s a compliment.
      Can’t make suggestions.
      Main character (girl) falls in love with another girl and decides to get rid of the dystopia.

      My irl friends spend the night at my old house - time travel to a point where we didn’t own it.

      DBZ characters seeing themselves in the past with time travel?


      Day 24 – 3/30/2012
      At Highlands. Usual Vent people are there. Crossdressing. A lot of people compliment my dress. Something’s after us, but someone says they’ll protect me.

      Batman, no one can beat him in the shadows

      Meadow. Very green. Perhaps a distortion of my old back yard?

      Wakfu clan member star on dock

      Vegetable farming


      Day 25 Nap – 3/31/2012
      Ozen (my right-hand man in my guild) tells me that Cassidy (Our in-game nation's governor) needs copper and iron, so we try to gather some for her.

      My irl cousin is wearing an orange and black jacket, tries to explain orange and black so he points to something to the side, game show host points out that he is wearing an orange and black jacket.
      Orange power ranger and black power ranger? I wake up.

      I am some sort of royalty, maybe? Or from a wealthy family at least. My sister is an assassin. She looks older than me, but I still have the feeling that she is my younger sister. She makes a comfortable pile of pillows or something. Trying to seduce me? I wake up.

      She finds out that she needs to travel back in time to save someone (a little kid, maybe?) She comes to spend time with me in the past. I don’t know who she is. I take her shopping, and I find a tie-dye shirt with the Mane 6 on it. We go into a shop that is laid out like GameStop, but isn’t GameStop. It might be a bit bigger. She wants something, and after a bit, I reluctantly get it for her.

      There’s a kid that is going to be blown up by some dude. I’m on my way to save him. There’s a cat guarding, but my mouse friend beats the living hell out of him with a monocle, finishing by putting the monocle on and striking a pose. I wake up.
      Most badass mouse ever? I think so.


      Day 26 – 4/1/2012
      Last night was hell. I kept randomly waking up in the middle of the night and it was hard for me to fall back asleep (probably because I have never tried DEILDing before.) I don’t think it was the alarm, but it could have been. I hardly remember any of the dreams I had last night.

      My friend Jacob is Akizuki Ryou (the irony of this is just too good. He's made it a point to express just how much he disapproved of crossdressing/traps/homosexuality) in the woods, attached to a ball of yarn. He starts to run down a hill, but I pull on the yarn and he comes back.
      Random girl in same woods, someone important like a princess or something. She runs away, but comes back so people think she’s lying about running away.

      Some sort of apocalypse going on? We are a group sent to Brakmar to help keep everything under control. There is some sort of demon wolf thing who gets mad at us and starts attacking us. It keeps getting hit by these swinging pendulum things, and eventually falls into an abyss.
      In a tavern, really noisy, someone shouts "____ has been defeated!" (the wolf, I don't remember his name) and the tavern is instantly quiet.
      The Brakmarian governor is worried about the wool economy.

      Some guy is in a guild, and as a joke he leaves the guild and waits in the guild bank with a hat and a ring, waiting for someone to come and check it.


      Day 27 Nap – 4/2/2012
      Planning on DEILDing tonight, going to sleep at midnight. Also, since I didn’t get much sleep last night and Codey didn’t get any, we’re going to take a nap as well.
      No luck. Didn’t fall asleep.


      Day 27 – 4/2/2012
      Last night was ALSO hell. I’m not sure DEILDing is for me, but Imma keep at it for a while.

    2. I Know This Much is True

      by , 04-03-2012 at 06:28 PM (Ophelia's Book O' Fun II)
      3 non lucid fragments:

      1. Trying to convince this young single mom to go to the same battered women's shelter I went to.

      2. Harry and Ron accidentally cast a spell on Snape that caused him to pass out and make all his hair fall out. They didn't know the spell to restore it, only how to permanently attach 1 of 4 wigs that they found. They chose the one that looked like a spiked Devil's lock. Snape was not amused.

      3. I was at mom's making a bagel with some blue cheese spread, when a crazy guy came into the kitchen, pretending to be lost and looking for a steak house. My stepdad got rid of him. Spooky looking guy. Then I went to the tv room and started watching a movie on tv. It was Sixteen Candles, but it had changed alot. Sam and Jake Ryan were still after eachother though, that part was still the same. Oh and Spandau Ballet's TRUE was playing at the prom as usual. Haha I woke up hearing it in my mind, and it's still in there as I'm writing this

    3. First (DreamViews) Dream Journal Post

      by , 04-03-2012 at 04:56 PM (Adventures in Dreamland)
      Had a FA about getting a drink of water and putting some sunflower seed shells into a spitcup. I notice that my trashbag is torn up so I think it's my dogs, but then I realize they couldn't have gotten into my room. I go into my kitchen (not doing the reality checks I normally do) and start doing something, but then I notice some crochet puppies running around. They were creepy. I went back into my room and then woke up after doing something.

      I think there was more HI than anything else, as I can't think of anything else other than images.

    4. Not another dream reader...

      by , 04-03-2012 at 06:11 AM (Have a look...into my subconscious mess)
      I was in bed. My mom left the house after she told me to watch the bathroom because she let the faucet turned on (for some logical reason ). After a few seconds, I heard some noises coming out of my room. I was scared as there was no one in the house. I called my mom through the phone. I asked her if she's away from home in that moment. She confirmed that she left. Still scared as hell, I went into my room and I saw a lot of boxes dropped on the floor. I carefully walked through the boxes and there was my mom's clone. I came back into the living room and I asked my cloned mom: "Can you please give me my sword? I can't sleep without it. ". And she gave me the sword, so I went into the bed and put the sword near me. Then I woke up (still in the dream) just to realize that it was all a dream. The good thing was that everything was recorded, because I bought a dream reader helmet and put it on my head before going to sleep. Every single dream was recorded right there in a video format. I opened the last one. What I remembered was
      just a fragment of it. When the helmet started the video, there was more of it (and the atmosphere was much lighter that I remember it was). My mom came to watch it too.
      It looked just like a cartoon. It was about some kid that was at home, talking with his parents and stuff when he went to the bathroom. Her grandma went into the bathroom, turned on the faucet and left the bathroom. She also put that kid in charge of watching it while she was gone. The kid walked away and went into a room with a lot of people. Everyone was arguing about something. They all started talking at once and you couldn't understand a bit. That was until someone screamed "Shut up!! React to humans!. And he repeated "React to humans" a couple of times. After this, the part of the dream I remember was about to begin, but my mom went into the kitchen to get some snacks. That was when the alarm started and I woke up.
    5. 4-2-12, I remember more than I thought...

      by , 04-02-2012 at 07:54 PM
      I thought the night was going to be a bust for dreams as I went to sleep at 2, and woke at 8:30 with not a single dream to recount. But it was raining so Terminix canceled our 11:30 appointment and I got to sleep in after all

      Dream One: I need gas, so I pull into a gas station, but all the pumps were pulled out except for one. The one pump that was there had no card reader. So I went inside the gas station and told the attendant (a pleasantly plump middle aged woman with frizzy curly grey hair) that I needed to pay with credit but the car reader was missing from the gas station. The woman told me they were renovating the place and could only accept their own gas cards as a credit payment. I tell her it's actually a debit card, so she's welcome to scan it as Debit I just won't get my visa extras points. The woman then starts telling me that if I don't use my gas card it will ruin my credit. I tell her I don't have a gas card, and she threatens me again saying that if I don't apply for one she will personally ruin my credit. I storm out, pissed off, but pretty sure she can't ruin my credit because I refuse to apply for her gas card.

      Dream Two: I'm walking around Sam's club with my husband and I see these really cute Disney bowls for kids. They're shaped like Mickey mouse heads, and have princess and mouse designs in the center of the faces and ears with crowns and characters around the borders. I decide To buy some for the kids to eat their popcorn in when we watch Disney movies. I end up loading like 5 or 6 in the buggy, but for some reason most of them are the different princesses for my daughter and there's only one mickey design for my son. I feel bad about this, but as they only have one boy design I think I'll buy him something else to make up for it. I get a phone call from my grandma that Terminix has shown up, so I go around the next aisle and suddenly I'm in my kitchen. The bug man hands my husband a bill, and my husband goes off saying it's supposed to be cheaper than that because he's an annual member of some program through his work that makes all deliveries and driving fees of services in the south east free. He calls it a "stomping fee" and says we should have free stomping fees through this membership he supposedly has.

      Dream Three (Fragment):I'm watching some tv show in the living room, and my kids are there with me as is the little kid next door we babysit after school. The kid next door says, "this crap is weird!" I pay attention to the show wandering whats so weird about it. On the screen a little cartoon tanuki like the one in Inu Boku SS:


      (yes, I'm hot linking so that picture may not work, lol)

      Is praying to "the Great Goddess, Mother, and Lady Saint" to help him protect the forest where he and his fellow animal friends live. I love the show immediately and tell the neighbors kid that this is the kind of stuff I wish my kids would watch more of! That we don't see much that can even remotely be considered pagan programing here in the bible belt, and this is about as pagan as you can get. The kid then asks me what Pagan is, and I go into some long explanation about how pagans are nature loving people who worship multiple gods goddesses and spirits instead of just one god, then go on about how it was once the most popular religion around the world. Looking back, it was probably mostly a bunch of bs because I'm really not that knowledgeable about it, I just generalize, ha ha.

      Dream Four: I'm in the basement, and the neighborhood kids show up. One of them is looking around the basement which in this dream has lots of glass shelves with Anime Figurines on them (this must be my husbands dream basement, lol ) The kid is asking me about them and I'm trying to tell him what each figure is and what show they're from. I end up giving the neighbors kids a tour of our anime collection and trying to show them how cool it can be, while trying to skip past all the not so kid friendly stuff that is in our collection.

      Dream Five (fragment): I'm dropping my kids off at the elementary school I went to so they can start school and it looks exactly the same. (That building was torn down 13 years ago, lol) I go into the girls bathroom, and marvel at how it hasn't changed a bit. The stalls are still falling apart and it's still pretty beat up looking.

      Dream Six: I'm in a shiny black car, I think it was a Cadillac. There is a man in a black suit driving, and a woman in a black suit with a pony tail in the passenger seat. I'm in the back. We pull up to a grey square building that's very plain and government looking. The woman gets out, she has to go inside to get something. I'm sure in the dream that I am friends with these two people, and I trust them, and apparently they trust me because this is a top secret area or something. I'm looking out the window and I see a boy with blond hair and a girl with long dark brown hair walking towards the building. They look like teenagers, and I notice they're carrying books like they're on their way to class or something. The girl stops, and turns to look right at me. I feel like ice runs down my body, all scared and panicked that I was seen. The girl rushes over to the car and knocks on the window I'm sitting at. The guy in the drivers seat rolls the window down and tells her to get on to class. She says she will, she just wanted to introduce herself to the new student and make her feel welcome. I try to tell her I'm not a student, I'm way too old for school, and she tells me that's nonsense, she could tell as soon as she felt me nearby that I was to be a student here. I try to tell her I'm not even supposed to be here, so it'd be best if she just ignored whatever she was feeling and went to class. She tells me again that it's nonsense, that if I wouldn't be here if I wasn't supposed to be because the security here is too tight to let just anyone in. The woman comes out of the building and tells the girl she will be late if she doesn't go inside now, then climbs into the car and rolls the window up. I ask the woman and man in the car what that was all about, saying I'm 25, there's no way I'd be going to class with those kids. The lady says nothing, but looks at the man and he looks back in the mirror and tells me to "just ignore it, those kids are weird." Then the car is moving and we're pulling away from the building. There's mountains and a lake in the back ground, and I see a few tall pine trees as well. We're trying to go through the big concrete main gate but are stopped on the way out. I either wake up here, or I skip to another dream, I didn't take notes last night so I can't be sure and will treat it as waking up

      Dream Seven: I'm in the woods with a group of people ranging from teenagers to adults about my age, hiking maybe. I feel like I'm on the older end of the spectrum at 25, but there are people who definitely look older than me. There's a woman with me, she looks about 22, and she's dressed in all black. She has red orange hair braided down her back, and a face that reminds me of a young Angelina Jolie with smaller lips, lol. She's dressed in all black, leggings and long sleeved shirt, with a bulky belt holstering a gun and sword and a couple pouches around her waist. She seems to be my protector or body guard, and I call her Pandora. There's a sound like wind, and then these people in black robes are attacking us. One girl in particular has blond and curly hair like Dakota fanning in that Twilight movie (don't ask which one, I haven't seen it so I don't know, I just remember the ads) is trying to attack me. She has a sword and is lunging at me. Pandora blocks the attack, and tells me to run. I don't want to run because I don't want to leave all the other people at the mercy of these robed figures, but Pandora tells me that it's me they are after and if I run I can draw them away from the others. I tear through the woods as fast as I can and come across an old barn. I run past what looks like empty rabbit hutches and into the barn. The blond girl is right behind me, and I have no sword to fight her with. She swings at me wildly, and I keep stumbling around managing somehow to dodge her attacks. Then she slices into my left arm, and it HURTS, but it's not deep as she only just barely caught me with the swords tip. I think to myself I can cast a sword spell, and try it but it back fires and doesn't work, instead the other girl tells me that If I'm going to use magic so will she, and she summons her own swords spell that causes swords to fall from the sky. I see a round piece of metal laying nearby, and decide to use it as a shield. I imagine it acting as the Hyland shield from Zelda, and tuck up under it to keep the swords from hitting me, and it becomes the shield. I peek out from under the shield when everything goes quiet, and I see the swords have stopped falling but the girl is standing over me with her sword held high about to hit me as hard as she can. I shove the shield towards her as hard as I can and slam her with it. She staggers back a bit, and I proceed to keep trying to bash her with the shield until I'm able to knock her down unconscious with blood dripping from her mouth as though I've knocked some teeth lose. I'm exhausted and barely standing, but I teeter out of the barn and am greeted by Pandora running up the hill. She steadies me, and asks me if I'm ok, apologizing for taking so long to get there as she was being held back by the other attackers. I tell her I'm ok, and that I was able to bash the blond with a shield but that she was unconscious, probably not dead and may get up to fight us again. Pandora tells me to relax, that I'm safe now, and that the others were ok as well. I can see the group climbing up the hill through the woods at a slow pace. A blue bird lands on one of the empty rabbit hutches and tweets. Pandora tells me that "everything will be fine now, that is a Blue Bird of Happiness, and a sign that the fight is over." I wake up.

      Dream Fragment (???): Not sure where this one fell in the night, but as I was getting my cheerios this morning I remembered having a dream that my kids wanted me to read the books from the Cheerios Box to them (they're giving out books in the cheerio boxes right now, or were when I bought them last week, lol) I go to the bookshelf to get them, but when I pull on the books, they rip in half! I'm so upset because I bought double the cereal I normally do so I could get my kids one of each book since they thought it was so awesome their cereal was coming with a book!
    6. Lucid Blips

      by , 04-02-2012 at 06:04 PM
      Well I'm back to the world of lucid dreaming, this marks my first journal entry in years. No remarkable experiences yet, just getting back into the groove of things.

      I was in sp moments after falling asleep, it seemed like I was sitting up for a moment, and felt very heavy and sleepy, I slowly fell into the bed feeling this way. I couldn't manage to move automatically anymore. I managed to imagine rolling out of bed, and then I swung myself up, I was in the laundary room, where I had fallen asleep. I stepped into the kitchen, I think I thought of trying to shoot something out of my hand, or take off my clothes randomly, neither idea sounded too fun, thought about levitating something on the table, but as I tried, the dream faded.

      I had another SP experience, I heard my brother come down stairs, thinking I was still awake, I was upset that he had happened to get up at this time, because he might ruin my sp. I heard my hungarian friend speak into my ear in hungarian, and heard some small clips of a radio dj, but couldn't make out what was said. I again got up, this time it was darker, and my brother was up. I walked up to my brother and told him I was lucid, he instantly got excited, acting like he was also lucid, I told him I was leaving to go outside and fly. He tried to hold me back, I escaped him and left the house. At this point I tried to really take in the dream scape so it wouldn't escape me this time. I remember there was a huge dirt path running up through the park, and I was following it, my dream seemed vivid at one point, and fading fast the next.

      After this I spent some time in the void, where I began to imagine some scene of helping my mother cook dinner with a sauce pan, I wanted to see if I could make it into a dream, I managed to make it into something that might resemble a dream, but don't remember what happened next.

    7. Waking up in a FA "False Awakening"

      by , 04-02-2012 at 05:23 PM (It's all about Awareness.)
      Here I am waking up from bed, "or at least I thought I was" It was bright in my bedroom, the room design was different how I noticed it. Everything looked weird. I walked out of my bedroom and I noticed a digital clock on the wall. I saw the clock and the numbers said 11.1.1.1. I realized something was odd about that clock so I pointed to my self wait I'm dreaming! I became really calm in the entire dream. With out stabilizing because I forgot. I saw my dog sleeping on the couch in the living room. My mind some how redesigned my entire living room. I saw him sleeping on the couch. Everything looked white. It was bright in the house. It looked more like a house than a trailer when ever I walked out of my room for the first time.

      When I saw my dog I thought he was going to wake up and attack me since I knew I was dreaming. I remember someone discussing about bad things only happen when you expect them to. So I told my self if I think it it will happen. So I kept my mind quiet and I decided to not think about it. So I walked away and let him continue sleeping.
      The dream didn't last long because I forgot to stabilize it, it began to fade then I woke up from it.. But it was a cool dreaming experience the first time I had in months.

    8. Long random dreams, LD #2

      by , 04-02-2012 at 02:55 PM (Lucid Time!)
      The first thing I can remember was coming home from school and being very excited. My mother told me that my old childhood friends (their names being Riley and JP) were coming up from Georgia for a visit.
      I came home and went into my room and played Minecraft for a little while. Then I went on the internet and there was this article about these explosions happening because of some gas that had escaped into the atmosphere. They were talking about what states in the US had explosions over them.
      Then, the knock on the door. I ran over to see, and sure enough my two childhood friends were there. They were coming in and for some reason I was having trouble seeing them.
      My mom came upstairs and took me into the bathroom. She told me that I had some sort of sickness that caused my eyes to swell up and make it difficult to see. She said that it would go away in a couple of hours.
      Eventually Riley and JP were up in my room. I showed them the article on the internet about the explosions happening. The article had updated and there was a video that showed the times that the explosions had happened. Then a newscaster came on and said "This catastrophe is only going to get worse."
      Around this time my problem seeing wore off and I could see fine again.
      My parents called me from downstairs and told me that I had to go to some kind of after-school study session or something. I told them I wanted to stay home and be with my friends, but they told me that if I did not go I was grounded.
      We all got into the car and drove to my school. I was walking down the hallway, and I told Riley and JP that I was sorry that they were having such a bad time visiting me when all of this boring stuff was happening.
      Then I took out this comic strip I drew. I wanted them to read it while I was studying so that they wouldn't be bored. The comic strip showed people fighting, but the paper had some kind of power, and the comic strip was animated. It was sort of like a stop-motion movie with a bunch of drawings actually moving around on the page. The problem was the animations would only play once.
      Then my parents made us get into the car again. He told us we were going to the arcade and going to see a movie. I cannot remember what movie we were seeing, just that I did not want to go see it. I said that I did not want to go to the arcade because it was a crappy, worn down place.
      He said that we could just go to the movie, but I think we went to the arcade anyway.

      Then I cannot remember how I arrived at the far side of my own neighborhood. It was foggy and cold. There was a man wearing a black jacket mugging me. I can remember him having a big knife.

      I became Lucid and immediately took care of the threat at hand by throwing a huge fireball at him. But as soon as I did that the dream destabilized too quickly for me to salvage it.

      I was awake, and I'm about 95% sure I was actually awake, and had not just FA'd. I affirmed to myself that I would go back to sleep but remember all of the dreams that I already had.

      I fell back into another non-lucid dream. I was actually inside the game Minecraft and there were these guards. They told me that I was in trouble for stealing. They told me that I had to go inside a wooden building; that was like a jail or something. I went inside, and It looked like any Minecraft house. There was a bed, a workbench and a couple storage chests.
      For some reason, I got really sad and sort of spiritual. I began punching the walls of the building, and just as in the game, I got out of the building and went onto the rooftop. I moved the bed up there and went to sleep. But just as I was falling asleep, I can remember someone walking towards the bed.

      I false awoke back into the same dream. I was really groggy and the dream was no longer like Minecraft. I was just in a bed. I was laying on my side with my arms wrapped around something.
      I got up and realized there was another person. I got up into a crawling position and realized who it was. I won't tell you her name, but I will tell you that SHE is from my school, she hates me, and she was totally naked!
      To some relief, I noticed that I was wearing cargo shorts and a T-shirt.
      I asked her what she thought she was doing she told me that she "could not resist any longer" I guess my mortal terror and shock caused me to have another false awakening.

      I had a vivid false awakening in my own bedroom. There was this boy in my room (who's name was Connor I think)
      He said that he was borrowing an eyepiece from my telescope to look at something.
      He set up this really old looking telescope on my windowsill and looked out at the sky from my window. I told him to just stay as long as he wanted. I was going back to sleep.


      I finally woke up in real life, after all of those dreams. I made sure to RC to make sure I was not going to FA again without catching it.

    9. Flying Lucid, Healing with Blue Energy 03.13.12 (6:00am) and 03.14.12 (6:00am)

      by , 04-01-2012 at 06:05 PM
      Strange RV and House
      I climb in an RV. There are clothes everywhere. I notice that the piles of clothes are organized by color order the exact same way I organize mine - some even resemble clothes I own. All of the curtains are drawn, so I pull them back to let in some light, then head to the front of the RV to drive. I drive with ease. As I drive, the RV seems to be getting smaller. Eventually, I end up walking with a strange, mini RV strapped to my shoulders. I am in a house now and look in a mirror. I am now a boy (who kinda looks like Justin Beiber). I take of the "RV" and go into the nearby bathroom. There are tow doors. I walk over to close the other door. This door leads to another, secret room. I decide to explore. It is an opulent room that looks familiar. A woman who looks a little like Morgan Fairchild is sitting on a couch, petting a Pomeranian. I compliment her on her house and tell her it is like a maze. She says, yes, they designed it that way.
      Next I am reading a chart on how this house induces dreams.

      Fragments
      • A see a vision of "The Star" tarot card and hear a voice saying "Focus on the God of Dreams"
      • Boxes
      • Glitter explosions
      • Alyzarin sends me a "lover" request on DV. (I guess its kinda like a friend request.) It turns out to be a mistake. She ment to send me a request to help her find missing peices of a red shoe.


      03.14.12
      Lucid
      (Sivason posted a technique for retraining your brain to WILD. Instead of doing the technique as intended, I somehow practice it during a FA and achieve a lucid.)

      FA - I am lying in bed watching the back of my eyelids, I am surprised to realize that I can easily create light to form a hand and arm. Movement comes effortlessly also. I easily step out of my "sleeping body" and a dream forms around me. I know I am in a dream, but don't realize that the body I just stepped out of was a dream body as well. As the dream forms around me, I realize I am in my room, although some details are different. I step through the mirror in my bedroom. I end up in black void. I stay in the void for awhile, then form a dream around me. I am back in my house again. I keep trying different mirrors in the house, but the mirrors keep putting me in void, which coalesces back into the house. I run into my mom (who lives in another city, not with me) and am surprised that she can see me - thinking she is in a WR body and I am in an astral body. Eventually, I decide to just jump out a high window and fly around a bit. I continue to spend most the dream flying around
      I fly through a window of one building. I see a bed with a boy around 12 or 13 sleeping. The bed is next to a glass window with a really great view. I hover over the bed and sit on the window ledge, ready for the next jump. Suddenly, the boy wakes up and asks me who I am and what I am doing here, and tells me he is very sick. I tell him I am a dreamer and can heal him. I place my palm above him and began shooting blue energy out of my palm until he is completely bathed in it. When I am done, he thanks me and tells me he is already feeling better.
      I jump out his window and start flying about again. I fly over many breathtaking landscapes. Once is a city full of skyscrapers, only instead of the usual grey, each is a different brilliant color.
      I keep bouncing off houses, then realize I have a dream goal. My goal was to visit my dream guide again. I remember Sivason's advice to call out to your dream guide and say "I am ready." I call out loudly as I fly "Dream Guide, please come to me, I am ready to learn." This is one of the first dreams where I can fully yell with my dream voice. I test my newfound voice and yell, "Hellllooooooo!" The sound is surprisingly loud and clear and ripples across the dreamscape. I look around as I'm flying and see no sign of my DG. I am still rather unfocused, even though I am lucid and know my goal. I land and contemplate flying into space, but then realize that it would be rude to call for my DG, then leave.
      Somehow, next I am in a large, wooden room. I am not sure how I ended up here. There is a dream plot about the people there throwing me a party. I keep trying to fly through the roof, but keep meeting resistance. Unable to escape, I end up giving into the dream plot. I see a pretty girl at the party, fly over to her, pick her up, and start waltzing with her in the air.
      Possibly, still at the party, I am standing on a high kitchen counter, in front of a cupboard. I realize the orange earplugs I fell asleep in are in my ear. I take them out and throw them on the floor. As I do, they turn into shipping peanuts. Soon as I pluck them out, however, another pair appears. I continue to pull them out and toss them on the floor until the floor is covered in shipping peanuts, only to continuously have a new pair reappear in my ear. I consider holding my nose, blowing, and popping them out my ear, but decide to just not focus on them instead.

    10. 4-1-2012 Best recall all week

      by , 04-01-2012 at 05:47 PM
      Dream One: I'm staying with an older couple, like they've taken me under their wing when I was in a tight spot or something. I'm going out for the day, so I've just left the house and am walking down the street. I come to a stop sign and three guys in their early twenties step around the corner and start acting like they're going to hit me. One pushes me back and another one steps behind me so I fall back into him. He pushes me forwards again and I lose my balance and hit the ground. Just then a hooded figure comes up from behind the second guy, picks him up and throws him into the other two. They fall over, and then scramble to their feet and run away. I look up to see Altair (of course I did, doesn't everyone dream of that game after playing it? lol) has rescued me. He thrusts out his hand and I take it and let him pull me to my feet. I'm sure there was some sort of conversation here, but since its the first dream of the night I can't much remember it. I just remember wanting to see what was under his hood (So far in the game, I've yet to get a good look at his face, and its driving me nuts, ha ha) He lowers his hood, and he looks like Caspian (Ben Barnes) from the second Narnia Movie. I take him back to the house with the old couple, and they agree to let him stay there because apparently he has no where else to stay while he's in town. I decide that I need to go buy some protective jewelry like this is some sort of real life RPG. I remember being in the store and buying a random pack, then I remember sitting on my bed in this old couples house dumping the contents of my bag in a box to craft my protective jewelry. I notice the room is a very bare room, with grey walls, black linoleum floor, my twin sized bed against the right wall and another bed against the left wall. There's a night stand with a lamp on it between the two beds against the far wall, so you can't reach it from laying in either. When I dump my pouch into the box, all the beads and pendants that fall out are Hello Kitty. I laugh to myself and think I'll feel so tough wearing this :/ but that my daughter would love it. I start to string the pendants and beads onto some wire, and Altair/Caspian walks in and sits down on the bed on the other wall. This establishes to me in the dream that the other bed is his. He's cleaning a blade or something, then my memory skips to being outside. There's snow on the ground, and there's a black Dog that looks like a Husky with me. He has a green eye and a blue eye, and in my dream I think he either is Caspian/Altair or has some sort of strong connection to him. We're playing in the snow, tug of war with a stick, the dog chasing me and knocking me playfully to the ground to lick my face, then making a snow angel while the dog wags it's tail and makes a "tail angel". Then I remember something I needed from inside, and we stop playing to go inside and get it. When I walk into our room, I notice there are all kinds of things tucked under Altair/Caspian's mattress, so much it's poking out all around the bed. I laugh to myself that the things aren't hidden well and as an assassin he should do better! I reach under my own mattress and pull out a substitute Soul Reaper combat pass. I tuck it into my pocket then start walking out of the house. The dog follows me, but when I get down the road a ways, it's no longer there, instead the guy from the "present day" part of assassins creed is following me. (If they've mentioned his name in the game already, I didn't hear it over my loud kids) The road gets rougher and rougher the farther I walk, until it looks like something out of an apocalypse movie. I notice steam coming from a crater in the road, and rush over to it. Inside the crater is water in a huge golden basin, and I immediately recognize it as a "goddess Spring" (from Kid Icarus) The guy behind me is asking me what I'm talking about, and I tell him that the spring will heal us and I climb in fully clothed. From my seat in the spring, I can see a ruined city and wonder if we we will strong enough to stop whatever caused this destruction. This is about the last point I can remember of this dream. Not sure if I woke up then or just forgot the rest. I woke from this dream around 3 am.

      Dream Two: I'm at my dead Grandfather's house. There are a lot of other people there whom I don't recognize from real life but my dream self recognized them as "the forum" which forum, I don't know! I lurk on 5 different ones on a daily basis, lol. I'm behind the shed, and I walk out from behind it and I see all kinds of large rectangular things laying on the ground. I recognize these as threads, and start wandering around to read them. I come across one in front of Grandpa's Shop that's titled "How big is your Dragon?" and I see lots of pictures of dragons, but then I also see people are treating it like a big penis joke and everyone's trying to one up each others "dragon" and that the dragons actually look like the Chinese style dragons with long snake like bodies, not European dragons with big round bodies. A man comes up to me and I'm laughing at this thread, so he reads over my shoulder. He tells me he's a mod, and had forgotten all about this thread, he was glad he had noticed someone looking at it so he could reminisce. Then he asks me how many pages the thread was now, and we start to check. We are astounded to find the thread is now 140 pages long. He laughs and says that the thread was a lot more active than he thought! Then he picks it up and starts shaking it like a rug. He tells me he has to keep the forums clean. Then I wake up and it's around 5:30, lol.

      Dream Three: My daughter wakes up and wants to go into the living room. I'm still sleepy, so I get up with her to see if Grandma is in the living room. If she is, I plan to let my daughter watch TV in the living room with her and just go back to bed. When I get in the living room, the neighbors daughter is in the living room, as are two other little girls probably around 6 or 7.My grandma says she's babysitting them (my grandma hates those kids, so in hind sight that should have really made me lucid -_-) I accept this, and just tell my daughter to be good for Grandma and go back to bed. I think I woke up around 7:30 with this one.

      Dream Four: I'm at a radio Station. There's a really nice DJ, and a really snobby jerk. The nice DJ has long frizzy black hair and a thin sunken face, he's not attractive physically, but his personality more than makes up for it and I find him attractive. The jerk looks like Jonah Hill, lol. The jerk is making some sort of bull shit rules that aren't fair, though I can't remember what they are off the top of my head. Apparently he can get away with it because he's the son of the radio station owner. Everyone is upset, and he's laughing about his total power over the place. I run off and find the nice dj. I'm crying, and he asks what's wrong. I tell him what a jerk the other guy is being, and ask him to do something about it because he has a lot of sway with the station. He doesn't really want to, but another guy walks up then and tells him He'll give him some Peanut Butter and Jelly cookies if he'll help the station out. The guy seems to really like the peanut butter and jelly cookies (and in the dream they're shaped like peanuts and have jelly sandwiched between two of them) because he is swayed by these cookies. We walk back into the room with the jerk DJ, and the nice DJ starts giving a speech about letting shit slide, and how you can't be so strict. Then, he surprises everyone by admitting that he is also the son of the radio station owner and that if his brother doesn't lay off, he will talk to their father and get the whole mess straightened out. Everyone cheers, then people start talking about nice things the radio station can do to help people. One woman stands up, and starts talking about winning a fight against breast cancer, but losing a breast in the process. She asks if the radio station can help her raise the money to buy a prosthesis. The Nice DJ tells her that he makes props and costume pieces for Cosplay, and could easily make her a realistic boob if she'd like. She starts crying tears of happiness, and I wake up and it's about 9.

      Dream Five: My husband and I are in a used book store of some sort. There's a table with a lot of older books on it. I see a couple of smaller books on a shelf beside it that are old Sailor Moon merch. One's an art book, the other is some sort of cards set with the sailor scouts as the king/queen/jack/aces/joker. We ask the lady behind the table how much the books are, and she says $90 for the ones on the table. I'm disheartened, but my husband tells her we were asking about the books on the shelf beside the table, and she says those are only between $4-$6. I'm really happy they're so cheap, and my husband buys me both Sailor Moon books. We spend the rest of the dream pouring over them and talking about watching Sailor moon as kids and explaining to the Book seller who Sailor Moon is. Wake up from this one about 10:15.

      I decided to include the times I woke up from these as a reference so I can look back and see if there's a pattern to my dream content and when the best time for me to dream is. It also gives a pretty good idea of my sleep pattern. Last night I went to sleep about 1:00 am
    11. 3-31-12, Lucid for two seconds

      by , 03-31-2012 at 05:52 PM
      Dream One: I'm on a spaceship, I can see the metal doors and walls all around me. I notice Storm troopers (or maybe Clone troops, I'm just now learning the difference -_- and it was a dream) the Hanger starts to open and I think to myself, "Wait a minute, Storm Troopers don't exist, I'm dreaming!" I step through the door and wake up. I'm sitting at my computer and I'm annoyed because I think I've fallen asleep at the computer again (If you read my dream journal yesterday, you'll know I spent all morning dozing off if I sat still too long) I start to pull up dream views to type up the short Star Wars lucid dream, and end up waking up for real instead.

      Dream Two: I'm playing Kid Icarus. I'm doing exceptionally well (I like the game, but I really suck at shooting games. I'm more of a rapidly push random buttons to win kind of girl, lol.) and I'm really excited, but then the enemies are flying farther and farther away and Pit's not catching up to them. I think it's ok because they're not attacking me, but it sucks because I can't get hearts without killing the bad guys. Then I hear someone shout behind me. I lower my 3DS and notice I'm on a raft in the middle of the river. There's a cop coming towards me on another raft (but he looks like a guard from Fable II, same face and outfit) and he's telling me I've drifted too far out into the rive and could get hit by a boat. I apologize, explain that I was playing my game not paying attention, and let him tow my raft inland. I drop my 3ds in the shallow water when we get on shore. I'm embarrassed and worried about my 3ds, but it end up working just fine, so I laugh it off and tell the guard that Nintendo products are like tanks. (True story, I bought a DSiXL a couple years ago, and set it on top of the car to buckle the kids in. I forgot to take it off. Down the road it flew off the top of the car at 45 mph and hit the road, popped it open and the game cartridge out. One of the buttons got jammed b/c of the road scraping the plastic on top of it, but as soon as we got the button pried back out, it worked just fine. I love my Xbox and PlayStations, but the Nintendo products I've owned are soooo much more durable!) Anyways, the dream skips to me being inside, but we're at the old house I grew up in and I'm trying to decide if I want to go back out to the lake or if I want to go to the Renaissance Festival. I'm having a touch time trying to decide, but luckily I wake up and don't have to choose after all!

      Dream Three: I'm waiting on my husband. We're in a hurry to get some stuff done, but I don't remember what. I think I wanted us to get some stuff in case the power went out during a big storm we were expecting. My husband was taking entirely too long, so I decide to get in the car and go by myself to get a few things then come back to get him. I'm in the car driving to the store, when I come around a curve there's a car in the middle of the road, parked across the road. I don't have time to stop and end up clipping the back of the car causing it and me to spin. I can't get my car to stop (dream physics) so I end up spinning and pushing the break and tearing into this field. I get out when the car finally stops and rush over to the other car. I'm sooooo worried and start yelling, "Is everyone ok?!" There's an old man who seems to have seen the whole thing and he says everyone's going to be ok, there's a doctor on the way. Then I'm trying to apologize for the whole thing, and there girl and guy in the car tell me it's ok, it wasn't my fault, they were the ones parked in the middle of the road. I'm still feeling horrible for hitting them though. The guy is laying on the ground, he seems to have a hurt leg and be really sick. I'm worried that my insurance is going to go way up, that I'm going to get a ticket, and that our cars going to not work anymore. I start crying and decide to call my husband and let him know whats happening, hoping he can make me feel better. I pick up the phone and wake up. I think this was a false awakening or I only partially woke up, because I woke up thinking I was in a different house (the one from my childhood again) but just rolled over and went back to sleep, and this time I woke up for real, and way too freaked out to go back to sleep.

      Just wanted to take a moment to write that apparently Benedryl makes me lucid. I've usually avoided the stuff since just one pill makes me stay in that hypnogogic (hynopompic?)state where your half awake and half asleep and it looks like things are in the room with you and you fee like your falling and all that. But I've been having more trouble with seasonal Allergies this year, and have taken it three times over the last two weeks because I wanted to be sure I was well rested without fighting the stuffy nose and pressure. All three times I've taken it, I have been lucid at some point in the night. Now I'm in the delima where part of me wants to take it more often so I can get lucid more often, another part of me feels like that's cheating and I should stop taking it so that when I'm lucid I know I got there on my own.
    12. What lays inside AJ's Pink Dream Journal

      This is my dream journal. I'm gonna write ones since I've started keeping a DJ, then I will keep adding as days pass.



      ND

      March 26, 2012

      1. I am in the middle school as I am near a bathroom and I just sit there for hours and I dont know why. I am basically 'ditching' class. It felt like forever.
      Then I justjoin into some room where everyone is having a somewhat assembly and I go to some festival in the front of my school. When I come back my friend
      says she told a secret and following that she started to cry. I went to science class and I was told a story about this dog called something Pa Shouj or something. The seating was very different than usual and there were new additions to the class. ( Little kids were in our class for some odd reason. ) The teacher questioned me on the story and I knew the answers but I said them wrong anyways, but I
      wasn't even able to control what I said. I said that the person was a cat, but it really was a dog.

      2. People were trying to catch Eminem in my dream and he was in a wheelchair and I slept inthis kind of house that you would build in Minecraft
      that just has dirt and bricks and it was kind of a stimulation of real life and minecraft. They succesffuly
      caught Eminem outside this building with a long staircase. I've seen it in Law and Order before, but in my dream it resembled some gas station. It was outside a courthouse I think, and the outside look had stairs but I interpreted it as a gas station. Kind of this place... http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://farm4.s taticflickr.com/3276/2873111875_73a4b0d51a_z.jpg&imgr efurl=http://www.flickr.com/photos/wilsonjs/287311187 5/&usg=__-YgBI6qYsBiH9P1uX97YT3KXfn0=&h=480&w=640&sz= 172&hl=en&start=9&zoom=1&tbnid=fi10Pb5Mc8HGnM:&tbn h=1 03&tbnw=137&ei=1pVwT5msCMPPiAKe2NH8BA&prev=/images%3F q%3Dlaw%2Band%2Border%2Bcourthouse%2Bsteps%26hl%3D en% 26safe%3Dactive%26ie%3DUTF-8%26tbm%3Disch&itbs=1


      I think my dream recall is improving. I have one more dream.

      3. I was at school again, and it was merged with some airport place, like outside an airport, and we were all dressed up and we talked about how the year passed so quickly. Then, I just teleported into my own house and it was still dusk and I was talking with a friend who actually was my friend/sister merged? She then said that she needs to rub my back so she started to massage my back with her foot. I then woke up.

      1. There are a lot of different scenes in this dream. I'll try and make it as clear as possible.
      I am at school/my house merged, and this seems like a continuation of my last dream that I was not in class. School was not in session, but I was in this assembly like place that is in my middle school and a lot of girls were not focusing and they were dancing around so my supervisor told them that they were being bad and she left. Those girls also disappeared from the dream. From here on, it seems more to be like my house-- We have some talent show inside that assembly area which actually feels like my house, and apparently I sing a song by Karmin - BrokenHearted with a friend, and I have Karmin's voice so don't ask how I got that... Then there were some more performances and then I was sitting in my house hallway having a Kumbaya type thing with all our friends just sitting in a circle singing and my DR fades from here. I'm pretty after this I woke up. There was another scene to this dream but I cannot recall it. I know in my head, but I can't write it down, it doesn't make sense in words.

      My cousin is with me in my backyard at night and I'm pretty sure my mom is in the dream too, but I forgot her role.
      Anyways, I go into my kitchen and there is this sort of contest to throw luggage onto this towel on the floor
      for money. So I'm alone in the kitchen doing it and some professional guy is in another room. I had no supervisor
      in my room so I just put the luggage on the towel. Then I teleported to a part of the dream where I was merged
      with a building which is a hangout spot for my class and a classroom. In the classroom, I had no teacher and the classroom
      was like made of mushrooms, so I just decided to do my work with friends. My Algebra teacher then came and said "Oops, I
      forgot all my work at home!" Then, in the other place that I was merged with, it seems as if I was at an airport
      seeing all my friends and they were just walking down the hallway, and I was dragging a suitcase.

      Looking back at the dream, it makes a ton of sense with the luggage due to the fact that I just came back from
      the airport yesterday, and I'm still jet lagged so i t's been on my mind. I was staying with my cousin when I was
      on vacation, and the last person I saw before I went to bed was my mom. The other day when I was in the airport
      I was wishing all my friends were with me, but I was also afraid to go to school because my algebra make-up work
      was hard and the teacher might get mad at me. So this all connects into the dream as one! I've also been trying
      to win a lot of contests lately, so the contest connects because on the air plane someone told us that if we
      want to dry our dog without getting him matted don't use a towel, use a hair dryer. Cool connections.

      Failed RC and FA

      March 29, 2012

      Alrighty, I attempted WBTB and MILD last night. Since my fear after trying to fall back asleep, it wasn't so effective, I never had a LD but I had MADLY LONG and VIVID dreams. Great DR!

      1. There was this person who got caught and his name was called Connor or something, by the police. He resembled Kony or something like that. Or I think he resembled a con-artist? I'm not sure. In my dream I had a FA that I was in my room where I was about to do a RC but then I didn't get close enough to do it because I was rushed out and I got dressed to go see this guy. It was about 1 AM and I was wondering why I was up because I remember going to bed at 12 and I was about to become lucid but I didn't. We went to this basement/jail place and he wasn't even there but there were tons of people there with babies and my cousins were there with their babies and my aunt which was the mom of the cousins and they seemed to be having a fancy cocktail party, and the whole surroundings changed and I was very fishy so I was about to do another RC but I failed.

      2. I was merged with LA and NY and we were just walking in this building and we come out and saw a big building across the street and I made a comment about something that I was not aware and it wasn't bad but then my dad said "You be thankful for the soldiers and footmen of the US" then in one second I saw some smoke coming out of the top of the building and a bomb that is a typical bomb that cannot just nuke a whole building but it fell on the building fell like the incident of 9/11 and barely anyone saw it until they turned around and saw ruins and smoke and everyone started to run away an I wanted to also, but my family just stayed there across the street thinking what to do and we were standing next to this tall building so they just continued their everyday life. We went in there and we had to go up the staircase which was grey and very steep and we needed to get party favors for my cousin who actually wasn't having a party and my dog was suddenly with us which I didn't remember. They also had very odd shaped steps. When we reached the top I was the last to get there and beforehand I mentioned how unstable the stairs were and that I felt like they're falling and then at the top the stairs detached from the platform that was there with this vent we had to go in to get party stuff, and so when I fell backwards all the way downstairs there was another bomb but I flew up and somehow managed to survive it. Then I had some HO that my dad was in that building but I never saw it and he also fell down and we thought he died and my family was back on the streets so then we went out on the street and thought we saw him down the street but when we got there he wasn't but we found him in a parking lot and we were so happy. Then, behind a car a hand tried to grab me but I slapped it kinda like GTFOO and then it tried to get my mom 20 times but it failed so we just went away. We were originally supposed to go on an airplane before the whole incident of this building falling happened and we were in lots of airports. I then wake up.

      Insomnia. I had a very short dream + snippets.

      I was at this outdoor place and one of my friends, S, supposedly have cancer just a few years ago so I was looking back at pictures of her and then I went back and forth to this other outdoor place and my parents took me back to the original one with my friends so it then started to rain so I went under this roof that was kind of like a tent and people were doing some activities there. I then teleported into my language class sitting in my normal seat, but I had a different teacher. I was making a city or at least in my dream you press buttons and some buildings disappear or reappear and it was a mini diagram. While I was looking at the city it almost felt like I was in it but it was small and I was just staring into it which was pretty rad. My DR fades from here.
    13. Bizarre Family Party, FLCL Throwback?

      by , 03-30-2012 at 06:28 PM
      I had several more dreams than these but I couldn't log them down because my phone was acting weird. :T Oh well. At least I got the lucid one down.

      #1 - Bizarre Family Party [Non-Lucid]

      This one I just remember a few bits and pieces of. I was at a family party, there was some "moon scare" going on referencing some sort of apocalypse, it was my cousin K's birthday, my cousin G was suddenly legally allowed to drink alcohol despite being 17 years old, I talked about how I was hanging out with M and a couple other people before the party, out in front of the house a runaway bicycle came out of nowhere and rammed into some random guy's nuts, causing one of them to burst with blood flying everywhere , and finally a third-person view of some strange Futurama episode where Bender and Hermes got fused together.

      Dream Fragment - I accidentally stumbled upon some YouTube video about "secular graduation" (something related to school), and all I remember about it is that there were lots of theater kids from my high school starring in it which surprised me, and there were these two Asian kids at the end. One of them was a bit chubby and had short, straight, silvery white hair, and the other was very thin with a blonde beard but a black goatee.

      #2 - FLCL Throwback? [MILD]

      I was back at my middle school in a regular classroom but it was in the music hall. I was playing a Pokémon game with a bunch of random people and then C, an old friend and amazing weed dealer, comes in and joins us. Eventually he's heading out again and I decide to go with him, but when we get out into the hallway I realize it's a totally different person. I follow him out to the cafeteria anyway, only all of the tables are gone, and he's talking about OpheliaBlue, someone else I can't remember, and cheese. Slowly I start to think that something's not right, and then I realize that I'm dreaming. There are a ton of DCs walking around, and I tried to do something that failed but I can't remember what it was now. I saw some oddly placed lockers and decided to fly over to them, and as I did a couple of them magically opened, and there was just one big locker space behind them. There was a sheet of music in them, so I picked it up and then went over to a DC and yelled at them "Make music come off this page!" However, I was flailing the paper around in my hand as I was saying this and I guess that caused it to lose shape, I saw it morphing so I stopped shaking it and it took solid shape as a red electric guitar. o.o I shrugged and whacked the DC on the head with it, and he fell over and I flew off. I turned around to look at him a second later but all the DCs in the area had already changed drastically, and he was gone. I was just hovering above the crowd and decided to whack someone else too, so I did and as he fell over slowly his head popped off. I flew off but the dream started fading, I had lost my sense of sight and I could tell it was about to end.

      False Awakening - This was fairly interesting.... I woke up, but didn't open my eyes. I guess that might've been connected to the lack of visual input at the end of the lucid, but I just perceived it as keeping my eyes closed. I felt my surroundings and could tell that it wasn't right. Upon a little inspection I realized I was lying down in a bathtub with just a little bit of water in it, I could feel the porcelain edges and everything. I considered the idea that this was some sort of strange tactile hallucination based on my bed that was just continuing because my dreaming mind hadn't totally shut down yet and I hadn't opened my eyes yet to break the illusion. However, when I actually did open my eyes I was lying in my bed in a totally different position, so it was definitely a false awakening.
    14. 3/30/12 Trying new tech - SSILD: immediate results!

      by , 03-30-2012 at 04:40 PM (Sydney's Nightly Adventures)
      Clarity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

      Oh my gosh. This technique is amazing!
      So last night, I woke up after 5 hours of sleep, went to the restroom, then got back in bed. I did about, 5 cycles (If I remember correctly.) Then I got comfortable and did one cycle for some reason. After a few minutes I turned over once more (now on my stomach) and fell asleep.

      I woke up.. and my body was completely paralyzed! I could not move. I think I could open my eyes, but I didn't want to! I got really scared (as I always do with SP. T-T). I heard these weird wind sounds in my ears or something, and my body just felt heavy and numb (it was a bit hazy at this part, can't remember much). I just decided, "What the heck, I'm getting out of this!" (I've done this before, and I ended up in a FA) So I tried wriggling my head, then my arms, then my fingers, and finally "broke" out of SP. I lay motionless , still lying on my stomach in my bed. Then I thought to myself, "Crap. I shouldn't have done that." But then I RCed out of reflex, and what do you know, I was in an FA! I got really excited. Still laying on my stomach, I used my arms and "pushed" me out of bed. It was extremely hard to do this. It was like pushing a rusted lever or something (kind of like I was "stuck" to the bed). Then I saw it was dark in my room so I got scared once more (I'm always afraid of seeing scary things in my dreams, like weird shadows and such).

      I sat on my bed, looking around in the darkness for my lamp. I shouted, "Light!"
      Nothing happened.

      I remember that electronics do not work well in dreams, but I turned on the lamp anyway. Light immediately flooded the room. I wanted to see myself in my full body mirror, but was too scared. So I kind of "danced" in front of it to blur my body but see myself in it anyways. I didn't take notice of all the details in my room, I just simply walked into the bathroom and tried to turn on those lights as well. Once I turned it on, the lights shone very dimly. I walked into Sam's room and did the same. Dim.

      I shook her awake (at least I think I did), and told her I was dreaming, and to come on with me. She muttered something, but I was too excited to listen to it, and ran out of the room. I stood on my balcony, looking down. It was almost daytime now. I said I would jump off of it. I was afraid I would get hurt. But it was a dream; it couldn't hurt me.

      I jumped off of the balcony, landing on my feet. I only felt a mild shock travel up through my legs.

      I then walked out our front door, which was a large archway with no door. It was daytime out now. I looked up at the sky, it was clear and crisp. Then I started losing lucidity bit by bit, but I didn't notice. The grass was as green as ever. I saw my mom sweeping the pavement, and my dad was just walking around.

      I tried to fly down the steps. Instead, I hovered down them and hit my toe on every single one of them. Since they were brick stairs, it hurt a little. Then I tried to fly around the front yard, but I wasn't making any progress. I tried with all my might to "flap" my arms, but to no avail. Not even if I ran and jumped could I fly.
      I gave up and walked over to the side of the house. My house was bigger than usual. I heard my sister, who was outside now. She yelled to me, "Imagine something!"

      Good idea. I tried to summon a Lamborghini. Big mistake on my part!

      I turned around and visualized what I wanted. A Lamborghini. I wasn't specific, though. I turned around and faced the garage. A really long car, like a limo, was there. It was an ugly shade of green and yellow, and looked like it was made out of coke cans. Ugh.
      I tried again, this time it was a longer car, but was an ugly shade of blue. Somehow, the green car had rolled itself down into someone else's driveway.
      I tried once more, this time being specific. But it didn't come out as I wanted. A brown car appeared, and it looked like a Model T. I gave up. This was just too hard!

      The dream sped forward. I was with a group of people in a grassy field. My lucidity level got even lower, I could hardly control anything. I just had to go along with the story line.
      All of a sudden, a nest of "cracker jackers" broke open and swarmed around us. Someone yelled, "Get the powder!" (Apparently, this powder was supposed to ward off cracker jackers) I imagined this white powder. It started raining down from the sky, and the cracker jackers swarmed away. It was kind of like bug spray for mosquitoes I guess. We were careful not to step on the dead ones. They could still sting.

      The dream sped forward once more, and I was sitting with a group of people. My lucidity was almost gone now. They were being rude to me. I just walked away, not knowing what to do.


      I woke up. I remember going throughout the morning, kind of sad that I didn't have any more time to use the technique in the night, because of school. My mom handed me a piece of a Reese's. I tore the Reese's apart, and it revealed rich peanut butter and chocolate chips! Then the dream faded. I woke up in my bed.
      I was paralyzed again! I just decided to really get out of SP now. I did, and I didn't have an FA.
      I looked at my clock. All of this happened in less than 2 hours. Wow.

      Dream: Don't kill them!
      I was at my dad's house. His house was made into some sort of arena, and they were going to kill two innocent people. A little tanned skinned girl, and a tall boy. I don't really remember the most of this dream, I just remember that they weren't really killed. The people in charge of killing them were playing a trick on everyone.

    15. Lucid #27+28 + 2 FAs + 4dreams!!!

      by , 03-29-2012 at 12:25 AM
      Non-Drean/Comments Dream Lucid

      30.03.2011

      I am near an old house we lived in. I did the nose RC and went lucid. The dream was very stable, but that's all I recall...

      I am in the car in a big square or sth. I randomly did the nose RC again.I got out of the car and managed to stabilise the dream, but that's all I can recall... Pretty fail, I know...
      But here's the nice part!!



      Today I slept in the couch. In the first 20 minutes I had very vivid images, but I could still hear my brother who was on the laptop. I was not sleeping yet. My brother went to sleep at around 1... After those two lucids I wake up at 5 o'clock. I eat a little cheese, drink some water and go back to sleep... In the couch...
      - FA#1: My mother comes to the living room and wakes me up. She tells me to go and sleep in my bed... That's something she normally does, so I just got up, went up the stairs and into my bed...
      - FA#2: My father wakes me up by gently shaking me. Now I realise that the previous incident was an FA. I get up and as I walk towards the stairs, he tells me that he woke up and couldn't move... I tell him a little about sleep paralysis and about the FA I just had, and then I walk up the stairs and into me bed...
      At 8 o'clock my mother wakes me up! Almost laughing at this, I immediately do the nose RC and finally went to sleep in my bed for real!


      - I am in a ship, getting back from vacations, when I see a friend. "Yo, what are you doing here?". I don't remember if he said anything, but he started crying...

      - I am in a hotel room with a friend. There is some problem with the window or the door... Water was coming in, a lot of water! My mother showed up to take a look. I then noticed I was naked, so I just wore some pants, not that I seemed to care about it...

      - I am at my uni. There are 4 desks. Each one has a secret space behind the pc monitor. I found in one of them two bottles of vodka. Then I saw a guy and girl who work there. I heard them talking about the drinks and then they went to a room which had a sign on its door, "sex"...

      - I am at a park, really big and nice. There is a really nice hill which is like it got out of a disney film or sth. I said to someone that it would be great if we played live on that hill. Then someone told us that they are going to make a presentation of the first holograhm here... I went for a walk around. After a while the presentation begins. It was pretty much a fail. It showed some really distorted images of people and the whole holograph thing, was only taking place, inside a big space, in which you were not alowed to go. It looked like those mirrors that distort the view...
