      Most Emotional Dream (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      October was the last time I had a LD. I finally had another one. Although not exciting, it was touching.

      1. I was at my house playing a video game for the playstation. The game was a shooter game, and there was some odd things about it. First of all, you had to pick two sets of two characters. Each character would give you a different skill, such as more bullets, different guns, etc. The second weird thing is that you don't actually use the characters you select. You use yourself as a character. The final weird thing is you only get like, 10 bullets per gun, and you have to find a gun... by killing an enemy. The levels were easy, and it led me to make a crazy decision.
      I decided to buy a cat. I don't remember what it looked like because I don't believe I even saw it. I am assuming it probably looked like either Tiger or Boots. I had a canopener and I put some catfood in my dog's food bowl. My dog wanted the food, so I knew I couldn't feed my cat here! I did feel bad, however, that I ignored my dog. I did not want him to get sick!
      I was at my grandpa's house and went upstairs. I put some catfood in the bowl, so now there was double the catfood! My cousin Kyle came into the room and said he had to use the bathroom. He went into the bathroom, so I decided to play the video game again.
      This level of the video game felt lifelike, so I chose my characters, and began to play. It was in a desert area, and of course, I had a limited amount of bullets. I cleared most of the bad guys in the main area, but when I went to a door, enemies just poured out! I died. I decided to try this tactic again, but use another door. It also failed.
      I was sitting on the bed without the game and I did a nose-pinch RC.
      I was able to breathe! I was happy I finally had a lucid after all of this time. I looked to my left, and I saw my grandma. I was in shock. (My grandma passed away years ago, and I never dreamt of her before.) She came up to me and said "I'm sorry that I came to your dreams last." I was trying not to cry, thinking I possibly my grandma's spirit came to me. I had so much to ask her. She sat down on the bed besides me, wearing the pink night gown she always wore, and said, "Remember, the Eagle Church has only one lane free of snow."
      I woke up at my grandpa's house on the bed still. I quickly wrote down in my DJ the quote about Eagle Church, and I almost began to cry. I called my cousin, but he was still in the bathroom, so I decided to play the game some more. I cleared out the main area, but this time, I found a gun. I opened the door where the most enemies come out, and I tried to kill as many as I could. I cleared off about half of them, but I know I killed all of the robots. I jumped on a ledge, and they could not reach it. They walked down a ramp to get it, so I jumped off the ledge onto the main ground and ran through the door.
      After going through the twisted, narrow, corridors, I came to a room filled with lava. I jumped on some Egyptianesque platforms, and a voice filled the room. It was some Evil God that was talking to me. He said that I was so skilled that he will now befriend me. A female ninja overheard this and was very angry.

      2. I was at my house, with none other than my cousin Kyle. We were going to be looking for ghosts, so we split up. As I walked to my sister's room, I heard the sound of two axes hitting each other. I tried to ignore it as I went into her room. The room was actually clean. I turned on my LED flashlight, which revealed small, green dots on the carpet leading to the window. Maybe it was alien footprints, or maybe it was ectoplasm. I don't remember the rest of the investigation, but I told my sister what we found. She left the house, along with everyone else. I was scared to be alone with the ghosts, so I quickly went on the computer.
    2. scarily realistic.

      So, April 11, 2010. Real world. Me, dad, and younger brother went going fishing with a family friend called Mr. Kim and his son, who's my brother's friend.
      Background information is important! In the car on the way to the lake, I felt dizzy and had a headache. I was drifting in that half-conscious state, and half wondered if I was sick. The more imaginative side of me played around with the idea that I was about to faint. I didn't know what it felt like to faint, and I imagined it might feel something like this.
      When I got to the lake, we set up chairs and the dads began fishing. I was sitting a bit above them, as the ground rose up as a hill. I covered by face with my jacket, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

      -

      dream 1.
      I'm at a mall, nowhere I've ever been. My best friend is with me. We're walking around and suddenly Homer, from the Simpsons, appears. His head's been shrunken and he wants his regular size back. Then I take his place, shrunken, but simultaneously I'm carrying myself. Just a regular, silly dream.
      But then I wake up.
      I'm at home, my living room. It's exactly the same as my house, and I recognize it clearly. The details are strong in my mind, which is unusual for me. My television, the couch, the table... it's all in the right place. I'm on an air mattress (one I know we own), and sleeping bags (all familiar) are around me. I see Mr. Kim's son and my brother and my dad are sleeping in them.
      Now, you have to understand how real this felt. I sat up and wondered, "Am I hallucinating?" I thought I was supposed to still be at the lake. I contemplated whether it was possible that I had managed to sleep through everything. I truly thought I was at home, but that was impossible, wasn't it?
      Mr. Kim, apparently awake, comes to sit beside me on the mattress. He asks me if I'm alright. I ask what happened. He replies, concerned and surprised at my ignorance, "Jenny, your heart gave out!"
      I sit, shocked.
      Then I wake up for real.

      -

      My jacket was still covering my face, and so I could only see my stomach. Even awake, I didn't move. My body couldn't really. I was still half asleep. I feel dizzy and as if I was on a boat. I wondered if I was really back at the lake. I muster up the energy to check briefly, and then drift away again.

      -

      dream 2.

      I'm dizzy and can't see. I'm blind but can see; the way dream logic works. I'm with my cousins in a car, with a screen in front of me. It's an internet browser, and I mess around with tabs and delete history like I have a habit of doing in real life, because it makes the drop-down bar look messy.
      I run out of the car. Something to do with a werewolf happens.
      It's just another silly dream.

      -

      I woke up, but don't move. My mind was whirring, but I didn't move at all. Without noticing, I fell back asleep.

      -

      dream 3.

      I wake up in the fishing site. It looks exactly the same, except there's a portable shade thing, with a faucet next to a tree. I believe I woke up in real life, and immediately get up.
      Mr. Kim mock-scolds me, "Do you know how much trouble you caused us?" I laugh, not truly thinking about what he said. My dad laughs while my brother and his friend runs to clean their feet in the faucet.
      I notice my socks are dirty. I hop over to the faucet, trying to stay on the slate stepping stones (which have mysteriously appeared at some point, but I don't notice) because the sand is hot. The sand is hot, and I don't want to get my socks dirtier...
      Then I woke up.

      -

      So that was my dreaming experience for that day. I still remember it vividly, even after almost a year. It was pretty cool, but I was kind of freaked out at the time. Not one of my more exciting dreams, to be sure, but still pretty cool.
      I love dreams.
    3. An Interesting Set of Dreams, Including an LD and FA...Definitely a Good Night! :D

      Dream - Lucid

      I was at work, serving some special coffee drink to a table.

      ~

      I was telling someone about the above dream, I think it was my mom, and she thought it was “wild”.

      ~

      I was working with my friend/coworker Tori. The lights weren’t on in the coffee shop. A couple that frequents the shop came in, and the woman asked me if we still had the special that was on the board. I turned around to see what the special even was, and it said “piggys in a blanket”. I told her to hold on, and I’d go check. I went and asked Tori, and she said yes, we still had it, and showed me where the “piggys in a blanket” were. I told the lady we had them, so that’s what she ordered. I got the little link sausages wrapped in crescent rolls out of this small box, and put 6 of them on a plate. I couldn’t decide whether to give her 5 or 6 though. I finally decided on 5, and put one of them back.

      ~

      I was in a building at my college, the old gym, with my brother. A girl I’ve known since middle school, Amanda, was there. Apparently, she had never really liked me. I wanted to know why, so before we left the building, I demanded that she tell me why she had never liked me. She told me to hold on, she was going to use the bathroom, but she’d tell me when she got out.

      As soon as she went into the bathroom, a big, light blue neon sign appeared on the wall close to the ceiling that said “Emotions” in cursive. It lit up the room. Apparently, this was normal for her, and I told my brother that. I “remembered” that, usually, it would immediately go away and be replaced by another neon sign, this time red, that said “try harder” in cursive.

      Amanda finally came out of the bathroom, and the sign did something new. It turned white and said “please wait”, again in cursive. Then, it changed again, and said something along the lines of “congratulations”. Amanda was overjoyed, because she had always gotten the “try harder” sign, no matter what. I cried tears of joy for her, I was so happy. She hugged me and thanked me for being such a good friend. I was overcome with emotion. I told her how happy I was for her. I looked at her face, and it was covered in scratches and bruises, but she still looked so happy. I left with my brother, still crying tears of joy. I then explained to my brother that, usually, when the “try harder” sign appeared, enemies popped out and she had to fight them off. I “remembered” when this had happened in high school.


      When I woke up, I still felt like crying, it was intense.

      ~

      I was in a giant warehouse. A customer from the coffee shop, a man who constantly cheats on his wife with pretty young female students (he’s an anatomy teacher at my college) in waking life, was there. He had a huge tattoo-type thing on his leg that said “FAMILY” in black lettering, though I hesitate to call it a tattoo, because it was like it was a part of him internally. It’s weird, it was like engraved into him.

      I was supposed to kill him. I had been spying on him for a lot of the dream, and I somehow injected a slow-acting acid into him. I tracked the progress of the acid by watching his “tattoo”. I noticed the acid filling up the letters, and eating away at the “Y” of “FAMILY”. He didn’t notice it at first.

      At some point, I talked to his wife, and discussed all of this stuff with her. She was kind of in on it, but reluctantly, because she loved him.

      I finally saw the acid take full effect. I saw him bleeding profusely on the floor, in agony and pain. I felt horrible. I cried. Then, I knew I had to shoot him. But then, he had a gun. He was suddenly up off the floor, and was pointing the gun at me. He looked crazy, like he had gone completely mad. I was terrified, and tried to wish a force field around me, to protect me from the bullets, because I was dreaming.


      Wait, I’m dreaming! The bullet came out of the gun, but when it hit me, it felt like a pebble bouncing off of my body. I examined my hands to steady to dream and induce clarity. I told the guy it was a dream, and he looked pretty happy about it. He smiled, and his outfit changed to this white and red suit. I turned around and saw a bunch of computers. Most of the screens were black, and had random letters and numbers on them. I tried typing in “Access Krista’s memories”, but nothing happened.

      I was so excited to be in an LD, I couldn’t remember any of the goals I had set. I decided to, of course, fly. I blasted through the ceiling, and flew into the night. I felt a little unsteady, but I overcame it quickly. I flew over The Avenue, an outdoor shopping complex in my town. I decided to check out The Icing, a Claire’s-type jewelry store. There were a few people in there, but not many. I saw a pair of pretty, dark blue dangly earrings, and took them (stealing isn’t something I’d ever do in waking life, no idea why I decided to do it in the dream). I put them on, and flew out of the store. Then, I remember being on the ground again, and trying to will a hand-held mirror into my hands so I could see the earrings. Nothing happened. Then, for some reason, I tried to will fire to appear in my hands. All I got was smoke. In all my excitement of the LD, I had forgotten that verbal commands are what work best for me when I’m lucid, I suppose. I took off into the air again.


      Then, I "woke up" in my mom’s car, and it was morning. We were driving, but I’m not sure where. I looked at the digital clock in the car, and it said it was 9:17. Crap! I had a 9:10 class, and I had missed it. I asked my mom what happened, and got no reply. All she told me was that I needed to take off my atrocious earrings.

      Huh? I still had the earrings from my LD, only now they were bunches of blue, dangly bells. I started to get upset with myself for stealing them. Then, I thought about class again, and my brother asked me what I was going to do about that. I told him I didn’t know, and started recording my dream in my dream journal.


      Then, I woke up for real, in plenty of time for class.

      I'm usually excited to be LDing, but for some reason, the excitement this time was really intense. So intense that I couldn't remember any of my LD goals I have set.

      I also seem to end up in a lot of giant warehouse-type places before I become lucid, or sometimes after. Hmm...very interesting.

      Lucid #2 (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I saw a normal dream, that i cannot recall.
      I woke up in my bed (first false awakening), stood up and looked at a wall in my room. I suddenly realized i was dreaming. Everything became super clear. I can easily say it was the most realistic dream, i 've ever seen. I had a strange feeling in my hands. I started rubbing them. The dream started fading. I closed my eyes and thought "spin spin spin", but my hands were busy rubbing each other, so for some reason i started spinning just my eyes, which of course didn't work. I woke up, completely frustrated and pissed off... :S
    5. First LD

      by , 01-20-2011 at 10:40 PM
      Been recalling my dreams with some success but not recording them for about a month now, seems like a good time to take this more seriously.

      There was a house party at my flat which was all going well. My flatmate Emma then brings in a load of her friends, one of whom I recognise. I then realise that it's a girl whose face I had only seen for the first time the night before. I know she can't physically be at the party as she knows nobody there and ask my friend James who she is. He says it turns out that she was lying and she actually lives nearby and knows Emma. I suddenly realise that I can see her face perfectly with no errors and work out I'm dreaming.

      I then have what I now know to be a FA. I hear an intense ringing in my ears and can't move so just embrace the ringing and concentrate on the dream I just had. Suddenly I'm back at the house party and can control everything (yay!). I end up with a lovely mansion at the seaside having a great time.
    6. Time Dilation

      by , 01-20-2011 at 09:52 PM (Hazel's Boiler Room)
      1/20/11

      Really long lucid last night. I know that I only had 45 minutes left to sleep, yet the dream felt like it was around 2 or 3 hours. Time dilation was obviously involved.

      1- I Attempt to Visit the Antechamber of Insanity
      ((There is a lot that happened prior to this point, in which I am non-lucid, but I can't recall what it is. Something about packing to go on some sort of vacation. I make a point of packing my laptop in case the hotel offers free internet. Somewhere along the line, I become lucid. I think of my goals, and decide to visit the Antechamber of Insanity. I wonder how to get there.... A portal might be useful, but there's no guarantee I can even make one, and I have limited time. Instead, I stand on a chair and climb through the ceiling (I've learned my lesson about flying headfirst into solid objects), willing myself to end up in the AoI.

      When I pull myself through, I feel that I am on a wooden floor. However, it is too dark to see anything. "Does this mean my mind is filled with empty darkness?" I ask myself, half-jokingly. I think I sense Madison nearby, which is a good indication that I'm in the right place, but it doesn't count if I can't see. Madison tells me something, but I can't hear her.

      Suddenly, I'm on a shelf above my future step-mother's kitchen, looking down on her and my dad while they're cooking. I feel like a ninja.

      Jilda looks up and spots me, nearly dropping the pot she's holding and letting out a startled shriek. Without a word, I drop down and go outside.

      As I'm walking, I pass by a dog that is in a cage, yelling at me. (Not barking, yelling.) Wanting to test out my dream control, I point to the dog and tell it to turn into a human. It changes from a quadruped to a biped, but retains all of it's dog-like features. Interesting. I tell the dog it's stupid for not being able to transform, and show it how easily I can turn into a wolf. I begin to run, forgetting about the dog and taking joy in being a wolf, when the dog (who is now completely human) jumps on me and starts attacking me.

      I instantly turn back into a human as the dog boy painfully rips my stomach open. I feel blood begin to pour out of me. Angered, I pin the boy to the ground and start tearing at his throat and stomach. Although he is bleeding profusely, he's laughing as if this is just a play fight.

      I stand up and examine my wound. It has already healed completely, but my stomach is still red with blood. I wipe it off...


      ...and have a false awakening. I am in the back of a truck with my dad and brother. We seem to be going on that same vacation from earlier in the dream. However, I begin to notice that some things are a bit... off. First I see some things that I KNOW were in my dream, then I see islands floating in the sky. It seems normal, but a part of me says that it's not.

      I begin to read the signs as we pass, to see if they change or say strange things. A sign that should say "speed limit" instead reads "cookie monster." Okay, that's definitely not normal. I examine some billboards, and find that I'm having trouble reading them. That's strike two against reality; time to RC.


      I become lucid with a nose pinch RC and exit the truck. I go off exploring, but most of that is lost in memory.

      Non-lucid again. My brother is watching a video on YouTube. "What are you watching?" I ask.

      "This really cool thing with Justin Bieber in it!" he exclaims and shows me.

      "Justin Bieber?" I burst into laughter. "Why are you watching THAT?"

      "'Cause he's a really awesome singer! Uhh... just don't tell anyone I told you that."

      My mom walks up and I become lucid again. I am trying to prove to her that this is a dream, but even though I stick my finger through my palm she doesn't believe me. Stupid DC...

      Later, yet ANOTHER false awakening. My brother is still going on about that Bieber kid. "I thought that was a dream," I mutter to myself, confused. I am contemplating telling my friends about his strange behavior, or saving it for when I need dirt on him.
    7. Night of Hobbies

      by , 01-20-2011 at 03:52 PM
      Presleep: I attended Percy's MILD-1 course. The class was an intro class. Since it was an intro, he talked about everything we would be learning in the coarse. This surged my mind with thoughts of Lucid Dreaming, i was very excited to sleep. I drank a glass of apple juice before i went to bed(I try to do this every night) while thinking about how i was going to fall asleep. Going over it in my head the step by step process. I got into bed and waited for my body to warm up; i sleep in my boxers and its cold now a days in the great white north. After i was comfortably warm, i went through my relaxation process. This only took me about 5 minutes; i was burning out from using Mary Jane . I concentrated on my breathing while repeating "My dream characters will tell me i'm dreaming and remind me to reality check. I will also find my dream guide". Initially I actively tried to visualize this happening, i got lost in this dream and woke up about 30 seconds later from me physically moving according to my dream. I tried to continue the chant while i fall asleep, I think my thoughts got lost before i fell asleep.

      Dream 1: Parkour (Semi Lucid) I was in a large room(large for a house). The room had a jungle gym(it much resembled the one i used through grades 1-3) in the middle, then chairs and beds around the perimeter. There were many Dream Characters in the room, i guess around 15. I felt as if it was a gym class and we were doing Parkour (or Free Running). Most of the class was doing basic things, essentially they were just climbing the jungle gym with technique. There was a teacher instructing individuals how to do certain things, though no one really moved much. I exploded in excitement. Immediately i started running around doing some warm ups. I was very impressed at myself for being to do very difficult things easily (this made me aware i was dreaming, but not completely clue in). I continued to "play" around in my dream until i spotted a very pretty girl on the jungle gym structure. She was doing a cat on the outside of the bridge section. This was a very tough place to get and i could tell she spent the entire time getting there. I scoped out the area and found a path to get me there. I ran up a pole using my hands to pull me up at the same time and preformed a 360 vertical cat (This is more or less physically impossible). I was now beside her, shot her a smile and continued on free running. I could now hear her talk to the teacher and ask how i did that. The teacher explained that i was a bit more advanced but if i did another example, the teacher could explain it to her. Sure enough i did; a basic wall run to cat this time, one that i can actually do. I explained in detail the simplicity of the move and did it one last time. That was the last time i saw her. I started to get tired at this point and decided to walk around and help my fellow classmates. Everyone seemed to have quit and was in a very depressing mood. I very clearly remember seeing a female friend (cannot remember who) look like she was about to cry while her head was down and body leaning against a pole. A very sad image. Seeing all of this made me start to become sad, so sure enough i continue to free run. I do a series of continuous moves and land in a spinning computer chair beside a bed. As i catch my breath, a person in the bed turns over. Its my friend T.V. (not the television) and she looks at me and smiles, we stare into each others eyes for a few moments and i wonder what she is thinking. It feels like time is up and she rolls over, back to me. I jump off the chair to continue free running and i wake up. Upon waking up, my feelings towards the dream were: Fun, Extreme, and a little confused to why everyone seemed so depressed. Not to mention i cussed at myself for not becoming lucid. I wrote down key aspects to the dream then tried to fall back asleep

      Dream 2: Unknown Conversation (Frag) I don't have anything written in my DJ about this, i believe it was a false awakening. I just remember having some conversation with my mother during my dreams, since it doesn't make sense in my other dreams and i remember the first and last dream i had, this fits here.

      Dream 3:Paintball Wars(Semi Lucid) Another dream about one of my favourite hobbies. Paintball this time. I like to start by saying this was an extremely well detailed and realistic dream, standing out compared to most of my other dreams, i believe this is because i was unintentionally doing WBTB. I'm with my team, i feel like our team is around 10 people total, but i only ever see and talk to 2 others. The game starts, i sprint towards the enemy base. The map we are playing on is huge; consisting of a field probably about 3 acres and a huge forest. Our base started at the end of the forest. Theirs was on the other side of the forest and a bit out. I finally get to the end of the forest, about to break out into the plain. I double check all my gear, this is the first time i actually notice my paintball gun and equipment. Sadly, guns are one of my dreamsigns and i didn't clue in. Somehow my 2 team mates are beside me getting their gear ready. How did they keep up? Didn't matter, time to advance. Its pitch black outside now. I stealth to my tactical point, behind a tank. Im about 80 feet away from my targets. It seems the enemy is just wandering around their base, there is cover, but not enough for what they are doing. I peek out and fire rounds, nothing. They notice me now. Uh oh. Hundreds of paintballs fire at me, i keep cover. The pelting stops, they must be reloading. I jump out Rambo style and spray my paintballs everywhere. A couple connect, but they are about to fire. I turn around and run as fast as i can. I realize im running away in a straight line, i start zig zagging. Nothing hits me. Im back to the forest now, my 2 teammates are still there. Its time to reload. I notice my team mates have pod packs. I reach for mine; its not there. Shit. I ask my teammates if i can "borrow some paints". I get mean looks from both of them. I continue to explain that i forgot my pod pack outside and i would reimburse them with money or more paints. Finally one of them hands me a pod of paints. It seems oddly small, but it held the right amount of paintballs. I pour the paintballs into my hopper, the balls are half orange and half brown; a terrible paintball colour. Along with the ugly colour, some of the paintballs were broken, but instead of paint dripping from them, they spilled a dark orange powder. As odd as this was, i was only upset that i had to shake powder out of my hopper. Time to shoot some people! All 3 of us advance this time, each taking cover in different places, but close enough we can talk. The enemy is more aware this time and are also in battle positions. A long epic paintball battle happened for the next 10 minutes. I shot about half of them and my teammates eliminated the other half; though they never actually shot a paintball. One of my teammates got eliminated; he donated the rest of his paintballs to me . Victory was ours; or so it seemed. At this point im not sure if it is a continuation of the dream, a new dream, or maybe i went through a worm hole. The environment seemed to completely change. From a war torn field at midnight, to a completely bare land during midday. All i know is that my teammate was still with me, we had paintball guns, and the next enemy was the boss of the paintball war. A knight in full iron armour, riding a white horse and carrying a lance emerged. We pelted him with paintballs, he didn't budge. Fear struck us now. Realizing we were in an completely open field, we ran to the nearest structure. We found a fence. The fence was a perfect square with each side around 20 yards long and a height taller than me. We ran around the edge, buying time, but the knight slowly caught up. I waited until we rounded the next corner and stopped. I grabbed my teammate and told him to follow my lead. My plan was to run the other direction as the knight rounded the corner, as he would assumed i was still running. The only problem was timing; how did i know when he was coming? My perspective changed to third person, so i could see above the fence and see the knight, but he could not see me. 3..2..1.. GOOO! My perspective went back to first person as the knight rounded the corner and we slipped passed him and continued to run. It took the knight a while to turn around. We continued this tactic 2 or 3 more times until the knight stopped. He just stood there. My teammate and i ran up to attack him, this time our weapons were extremely long, indestructible toothpicks; around 4 feet long. My teammate stood too close and couldn't understand how to use it. I stood back and thrusted the toothpick at the horses neck, it deflected, but i felt like it worked. I continue'd this 3 or 4 more times, the last time the toothpick pierced the horse. As soon as this happened the knight throw the towel. We had defeated him. He approached my teammate and handed him a pod with paintballs, we knew it contained 1500 paintballs (thats about 40$ worth). The dream ended with me telling my teammate that he can keep them all as long as i didn't owe him paint, he agreed.

      Post Sleep: After waking from the previous dream, i noticed it was just under 2 hours before i had to wake up. I figured i should try a WBTB WILD. I got on my computer and read Lucid Dreaming Tutorials for around 20 minutes then headed back to bed. I couldn't fall back asleep . Too many distractions. Overall i feel awesome about my recall and my dreams were amazingly fun. Im just a little sad that i didn't become lucid. Maybe tonight

      ZOMBIES
      I woke up at 04:00 ( I still had 3 more hours of sleep ) with a strange feeling and thoughts of zombies, yeah, but i don't recall anything about the dream... (shit! x'D). Before going to sleep, i saw the second chapter of The Walking Dead, and I think that this caused the strange feeling (seriously, a apocalyptical feel).

      Concience in a False Awakening
      Before this night, I never had recalled a False awakening, a VIVID False awakening. After return to sleep at 04:05 aprox. ( I wake up every day at 06:40) I had the false awakening.

      Like every day, I wake up very exhausted, well, my mum wake me up turning on the light and screaming.
      -Joguiiii! Wake up, look at the time!
      Holy shit, It was 06:55 and i've to run to catch the bus at 07:10.
      -Ok ok mum!
      With great effort I could get up and BOOM!


      ... It was a dream! Other time the same situacion, but now, my mum didn't turn on the light and it was 06:40, like every day.

      ----- Conclusion -----
      My first false awakening, YEAH!!!!! I don't know if that is a LD, because i don't know that it was a dream, but i think that i have full control of it, awareness, i don't feel like in NON-LUCID dreams, but well, it vas so vivid, don't know :3

    9. Dreaming of Writing Down My Dreams While Semi-Lucid

      by , 01-19-2011 at 03:06 PM (Burke's Nightly Escapades)
      Since my normal dreams are in red and my lucids are in blue, lets have semi lucids be in purple!

      I just had a FA from a previous lucid dream i had, but at that time i didn't know it was still a dream. I rolled over in my bed to face my dresser and noticed my DJ wasn't there. I snapped my fingers and said for a pen to be there, and it was! Howeverr, this only got me semi-lucid. I could still use all my powers, but i couldn't control anything. Now that i had my pen, i said out loud, "Notebook!" and one appeared. However, when i opened it up it was already full! I had summoned a filled notebook, great. I said out loud again, "No, Notebook!" and another one appeard, this time a bit smaller and not as rigid, and seems like it was held together by tape. I opened it up and noticed that this time, there wasn't as much writing, but it was still used. It looked like notes of a scientist or something, lot's of jumbled up texts with a mix of funny symbols. I repeated one more time, "No! BLANK NOTEBOOK!" and so it appeared yet again. This time, i eagerly went through it and finally, it was comepletely blank. Nothing written in it. I smiled a little and started to write down key words about each part of the lucid. Here's where the sucky part comes in. I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT I WROTE DOWN!!! This pissed me off too, because i could tell that it was a really long and epic dream. Infact, the only thing i remember from the lucid itself was thinking of how awesome it was and how i couldn't wait to write it down!

      [COLOR="#808080"][/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"]After a few weeks of NO recall, I got something :)

      [/COLOR][COLOR="#800080"]I was in a McDonalds, waiting in line and everything seemed normal. Though, suddenly something didn't add up and I pinched my nose and [/COLOR][COLOR="#00008B"]could breathe.

      I was trying to recall my goals and remembered my goals to go to the past and future. [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](remember this) [/COLOR][COLOR="#00008B"]Before I could attempt it, something caught my eye, I saw 7 Year Old Blue-haired quadruplet girls in robes lining up. I remembered another one of my goals was to ask a DC for inspiration, or for what they might want. I went up to them and asked them what they would like, they said they wanted Santa Claus to show up this year, they're a poor family. Before I could try to accomplish their wish...I woke up...or did I?

      [/COLOR][COLOR="#800080"]I was in my bed, thinking, "Why'd it have to end there, I was just about to do something." I though that I should check on my plaster cast I just needed applied when I [/COLOR][COLOR="#00008B"]became lucid, the reason...I don't have a cast. I looked around and I was in a hi-tech house with automatic everything that had a very nice view though. [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](My SC helped me with my goal...) [/COLOR][COLOR="#00008B"]I had a look around my home and peeked outside where there was a big excersise ball in a bush. [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](this likely showed up because my one popped, I like to sit and bounce on them) [/COLOR][COLOR="#00008B"]I attempted to shatter the window by punching it, which didn't work. I continued to try punch it to no avail and then tried a jumping cliche' kung-fu kick. I failed to even make it to the window. [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](even in my dreams, I still suck) [/COLOR][COLOR="#00008B"]Giving up hope, I just went outside and followed a sot of Cyber-road. As I was walking along I felt the dream fading by stabilized it, I also noticed the road was sort of slowly losing it's techy look. I eventually came to a big hill. By this time, the road was only modern, I went up it and saw the road turn to big slate bricks like they wee a long time ago. When I got to the top I was overlooking a moonlit village. It was the most beautiful thing i'd seen in a dream, It was so realistic, I saw a simple village with people walking around, I felt the dream fading, but satisfied I completed 2 goals, I let it.[/COLOR][/INDENT]

    11. 1-18-11 Blue Tooth

      by , 01-19-2011 at 06:05 AM
      I was sleeping when I heard someone playing drums downstairs. I went out in the hallway and yelled, "STOP IT, I"M TRYING TO SLEEP!". One of the guys replacing the carpet on the stairs said, "oh, sorry" and I went back into my room and laid back down. Then my cell phone rang, it was on the bookshelf, which is strange because I never keep it there. It was Jake(who I never talk to and don't have his number). We started talking about smoking weed or partying and I noticed all my bottom teeth were loose. I started to feel nervous. Then one fell out and I panicked and thought about how permanent this was. I told Jake I had to call him back. I looked at the tooth, it was dark blue, like a piece of candy and gritty. I went and looked in the mirror and I had to rows of bottom teeth. Then I remembered that my teeth falling out is a dreamsign. I flipped the lightswitch on and off and nothing happened. Then I went to the batheroom and did the same. I was extremely excited and wanted to run around shouting, "It's A DREAM> MY TEETH ARE OK!" but then I thought about the guys replacing the carpet and didn't want to freak them out. But then I realized they were just dream characters so I ran down the stairs(they seemed to have disappeared). I decided that I wanted to drive around in a red corvette and smoke a joint(I tried smoking a cigarette in my last dream and was unsuccessful). I walked out to my garage. It was empty, so I decided I'd close the door and when I reopened it there'd be a corvette in there. I closed it with my mind and turned around. I was getting spun out from being so excited and was starting to wake up. I tried to look at the sky and focus on the details to keep myself grounded. The sky was a dark, a tannish light brown color, and the barren trees looks ominous and depressing against it. I tried to pull a cigarette case full of joints out of my pocket but don't remember what happened next, must have woken up.

    13. Forgetting the Past

      by , 01-18-2011 at 07:24 PM (Lynn's Lucids)
      NON LUCID-GET ME IN THE GARAGE
      I don't think I was asleep when I dreamt this, but if I was I must have been half awake.FA. Mom woke me up in the middle of the night and told me to get a midnight drink with her. (We don't ever do that.) I heard people yelling that sounded like my old friends from Pittsburgh, PA. Their names are Tori, Mandy, Taylor, DJ, Hannah, etc. (That's just SOME my neighborhood friends.) I heard their voices from outside, so I rushed to the window in the garage to see them. I picked up a stick and poked the window. I couldn't see anyone, but I asked "Hey, is that you, guys? What are you doing here?!" They just kept laughing, but before I could investigate more, the door shut. I ran right to it, because I am terrified of the dark. When I ran up to the door, calling Mom for help, I felt an evil presence. I saw in the corner of my eye a murderer, with a ski mask and black outfit. He was holding a knife. Mom opened the door slightly as I tried to get out. I think I knew I was dreaming, because I made my "spirit" go through the door, and follow my body outside of the garage. I put my "spirit" back in my body, and I was unharmed, I woke up. This might have been lucid, but I don't want to count it because, 1. It was not a dream, it was a nightmare, anyway. 2. It's not really something that I had fun doing, so even though I knew I was dreaming, I'd rather not count it. The reason the word spirit is in quotes, is because it was black. I am pretty sure mine is clear, and glowing. Vividness: 4/5 It seemed so real I probably think it would have happened.
      NON LUCID- AUDIO BAN
      I was in math class. Kaylee was there, which she isn't in my real math class. She had her MP3 on, listening to it. The guy that sits in front of me had his MP3 on, only one ear. It was yellow and black with a tint of green. (his headphones) Instead of where I normally sit, I was in the middle-ish part of the room, in the back. Kaylee looked prettier than usual. Mrs. S gave an announcement that during the mid terms, we can't have our headphones in and listen to music. (We can't do that, anyway!) Kaylee wrapped her headphones around her MP3 and she put it in her pocket. Mrs. S then said, "I suggest if you have your MP3, put it away, NOW!" The guy in front of me, gave a guilty face and took the headphone out of his ear. When I observed Kaylee's MP3, I compared it to my iPod, and wondered if I could buy it, just for fun. Vividness: 4.5/5. Very bright and clear.
      NON LUCID- BROKEN YASMIN = NICKI MINAJ
      I tried to redo Yasmin's hair. I gave her a makeover. I put my Meez's pigtails in color black on her. When I was done, I put her on the dresser (ironic) and she got all wet. (This is my Yasmin Bratz with batteries, so she can't get wet and work.) I observed her and thought she looked like an ugly version of Nicki Minaj. Then, I noticed she was in water, and I recalled that you can't get even a slight amount of water on her. I tried to get Mom to fix her, because I was afraid she would explode. Vividness: 3/5 Somewhat clear.
      NON LUCID- I LOVE YOU, I CAN'T LOSE YOU AGAIN FOR THE 5TH TIME!
      The previous dream somehow turned into this dream, because the Nicki Minaj/Yasmin girl was a real girl in here. First, I went back on Meez, my virtual website thing. I got back my old look, and my pigtails. I told everyone I was back. The conference room was pretty, it was white and it had brown desks and black movie theatre seats. Everyone cheered, as I left to let the other people talk. Then, here is where it gets fun. I go on a bus, with my ex "husband." Really, boyfriend but we got married like four times on Meez. We were together for more than a year. Jordan was there, she had short blonde hair, very pretty, with her boyfriend. A cute guy with curly hair was there, who resembeled my old friend from 7th grade, Scooby. He had his girlfriend. Eric, (my current friend) was with the Nicki Minaj Yasmin. We all were on a bus for a romantic getaway, I didn't know where we were going. Here is the weirder part, I couldn't see him! He was invisible to me. I just knew it was him. Then, out of nowhere, we lose everyone. I am alone with Scooby, Jordan, and Eric. Jeff, Scoob's gf, Jordan's BF, and "Nicki" were gone. "No! No! Where'd he go?! No, I miss him!" Everyone was devistated, I was the only one with a shrill of hope. I kind of knew it was a dream. Like 13% out of 100%. "Calm down." I said, as everyone cried. Then, the bus driver told us to go on an elevator, because this bus was acting up. The hot guy with the curly hair (who resembled my friend) was crying, devistated he lost his girlfriend. Eric was sad, because he lost the fake Nicki Minaj. Jordan was crying. The guy was so sad, that he jumped on the almost-already-broken elevator, to kill himself. I joined along with him, hoping I would die. I love him so much, and to lose him for the 5th time, really broke my heart. We didn't die, sadly. Next thing we knew, we were on another bus. Once we got there, and everyone calmed down, we were at NYC. (for some reason, there was the eiffle tower there) No sign of them. This was our final destination. "See, they're gone forever!" Replied Jordan. Then, the bus driver came out with a blue hat and white shirt on. I THINK he was wearing jeans. "What'ru talkin' about?" He said confused. "There are two other buses behind me, because we wanted to make sure they worked, because the one you guys was on was bein' faulty." Then, drove up two buses, and out walked: Nicki Minaj/Yasmin, Jordan's bf, Scoob's gf, and my Jeff. We all ran up and hugged them, happy to be with them forever, even if mine was invisible. All of us "youngsters" went into a resturaunt in NYC, and had a double, double, double date there. It was so pretty. Only thing is, I didn't feel the love. Vividness: 3.5/5. Almost very clear.
      Interpret: I think that I was all of the dream charecters. I think the dream represented how I felt about the loss of Jeff, who I haven't seen since 2008/early '09. I think also he was invisible because I am either, A. losing my feelings for him, or B. Realizing just because I loved him, maybe he isn't the one for me, anymore. Or, C. I will never see him again, so why be stuck on him? The mourning period is over, time to move on.

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      My friend rang me this morning to remind me to get up and study for today's exam. I said ok and promptly lay back down.

      A few minutes later I heard someone rustling about beside my bed. It was definitely a person- I could hear footsteps. I wasn't sure if I was hallucinating or if someone had indeed invaded my room- in which case, what the hell was I doing??

      Then this person got into bed beside me. It was a woman. I moved one of my hands over and found one of hers. Then she
      flung me out of bed.

      I stood up. My bed was empty, and the covers strewn everywhere. I knew it had to be a dream due to the fact that my room was red. It's mainly blue in real life.
      I can't remember what happened next at all.

    15. Grease Lightning and a Little Car

      by , 01-18-2011 at 04:26 AM (Burke's Nightly Escapades)
      I had just awoken from another dream which i could barely remember. I think it was something about a video game, but wasn't completely sure. I had plugged my nose and tried to breathe, as i usually do when I wake up, and good thing, it had worked and I became lucid! The dream was a little "iffy" and felt really strange. I figured that it was starting to fade, so i rubbed my hands. I focused on the warmth and feeling of the hands, thinking the dream was going to fade away, but it didn't. Instead, it became one of the most vivid and real dreams i had ever had.

      I contemplated what to do, and, like usual, the TotY popped into my head. I thought about what to do. It was a choice between racing grease lightning and casablanca. Having never seen Casablanca, i decided to try grease lightning. I wanted to try out my new way of changing the scenery, by just snapping my fingers and not even closing my eyes. I thought, "drainage pipe, classic cars," and when i snapped my fingers, the scene instantly changed and i was in the large drainage type thing where there were a bunch of people dressed like in the movie talking and fighiting.

      I walked up to who i thought was grease lightning and told him that i would whoop his butt in a race. He laughed and scoffed at me. I took it that he gladly accepted my challenge. I nearly started crying... He had one of those little plastic electric cars that you see little kids driving around with. I looked over and summoned a Lambo, birhgt red and ready to race. I hopped in and started it up. It was awesome. Never being in a lambo before, i was eager to see how it preformed. I drove over to him and told him, "Hey! Nice car!" He just laughed again and said, "watch this." He suddenly reved the engine and it sounded just like mine. WTF!? The little plastic toy was going to compete with a lamborghini!?

      We both pulled up to a crack in the pipe and all his friends drove up along side me. They were in their normal '50s cars, like they should've been in. One guy stood there with a checkered flag. He yelled, "Ready, set! GO!" And we took off. I was way ahead and noticed that the other's hadn't even moved. I was nearing the end of the pipe and saw the others already there! WTF again!?!? They were cheating! I quickly turned aroudn the pipe and could hear them finally driving. I floored it. The others had caught up to me and were on the side. I have to admit, it was kind of funny seeing a little plastic car going over 200 mph, but I was starting to lose focus. There were passing me! I imagined a nitro button right next to the shifter and, of course, it appeared.

      I quickly pressed it and was launched back into my seat. I saw the speedometer quickly rising. 300, 350, 400, 450. The finish line seemed to move further and further away the faster i went. I was still catching up on the others though. I decided, "the heck with this." And i teleported myself to the fnish line. The guy was still there and waved the flag again. I won! or so i thought... I looked around and noticed the other people were sitting there drinking and laughing. I had lost! The guys started to walk over to me, but i could feel the dream fading. I jumped out of the car and tried to spin to stay in the dream, but it was too late.
      I woke up in my bed, a little disappointed that i didn't get to stay in the dream.
