April 22, 2025 - Around 5:27 AM

I woke up in my bedroom. Going through my normal middle of the night routine, I tried to remember dreams, without success, and then I did reality checks. It was my hands that finally convinced me, but it was pretty dark, so to be safe, I moved about quietly to keep from waking my family. I climb the ladder into my attic, while trying to find Arina, (A character I made up.) After I get into the attic, I find my younger sister has followed me up.

I think I talked to her for a bit, and I showed her my watch, which was wrong of course. I think she agreed that I was dreaming. At this point, I still wasn't able to find Arina, so I switch goals and try to find a place I made up called the House.

Side Note: In waking life, I made a plan to accomplish both of these goals. I would use a doorway as a portal to a door in the House, and there I could find Arina. I also think Dream Control is easier in a setting that isn't a real place. But in this dream, I didn't actually use this plan...

To get to the house, I jumped out the window to fly. I have found a method to fly from (many) previous dreams. At first I struggle a lot. Weirdly, the clouds are very low down, closer to the ground than the tops of the trees, and there somewhat solid, like an invisible wall. At some point I'm trying to do a Mario wall jump off of invisible walls to get higher.

Then, I realize I have no idea where I'm going, so I pull up Google Maps. And then I'm at some kind of computer, but the dream is focused on google maps. It shows the entire Earth, so I type "The House" into the search bar, and it zooms into a particular place in Oregon.

It shows the location in 3D, in a clearing in a forest near a lake. It doesn't show the House, but it does have these low-poly 3D birds flying around. Also, a meteor hits the ground in the middle of the clearing while I'm watching it. Shortly after that, the dream ends and I wake up.

A few days later, I checked that location in google maps and found that it's actually a drier area with out a lake. I also discovered that Google Maps doesn't have 3D birds or meteors.

April 16, 2025 - Recorded around 5:13 AM

I was in my room, and I did several reality checks. I pushed my thumb through my hand, and I plugged my nose, and I was reading the digital clock.

Then I tried pushing my hand through a solid object because that is one of the dream control things that you do to get points, and I did that a couple of times successfully. It felt weird, but also kind of normal. I also might have gotten distracted by watching a YouTube video or something, but after a moment I stopped that.

After that, I almost got distracted, though, by my little sister. I was thinking about my personal goals, and how I needed to try to do them. So I decided I needed to get away from my distracting little sister because she was trying to get me to play with her, and I said something like, "I can play with you in waking life. Right now, I'm dreaming, so please just let me go."

Then I escaped my room by phasing through the wall, and it worked. But sadly, by the time I got to the other side, I was losing stability fast. The dream was closing fast, and I couldn't do much to get anywhere past there. I don't think I even had time to fall. All in all, it was a successful dream. I even got to work on dream control stuff.

I’m in the back of Meadow main house at night. I approach a large rock and begin to lift upward. I become lucid. I fly toward the corner of the yard and notice a light on in Bud house. I decide to head into the room and explore the house a bit. I figure I’ll need to speed up quite a bit to not waste time and possibly destabilize. I imagine the window zooming toward me and me zooming toward it, and the distance closes rapidly. I phase though the glass, entering the home. I find myself in a fairly small bedroom and quickly shift into bird form. I fly around and notice that blue hue enveloping the entire room. I see a boy begin to enter the room, so I turn on invisibility. He doesn’t notice me, so I continue to fly toward the bed, landing on it briefly before exploring to the dresser to my left and beyond. I begin to head out of the room and begin to sense a maternal figure in the area below as I fly though the doorway, still in bird form. I head down the hallway and notice a dresser with some type of binder on top, fully opened. I notice what appear to be Magic cards inserted throughout the plastic pages. I float in front of the binder briefly, before turning toward the staircase, considering where to explore to next. I begin to wake up.

This was the last night of the comp, I'm very happy to end it with such a crazy lucid ! I did it in two WILD attempts (each 15 minutes) after a WBTB (awake for ~3 hours). First dream is two fragments that I think are from the same dream. Last dream is my lucid. Enjoy the reading 👽

Black = Non-lucid dream recall
Blue = Lucid dream recall

Orange cheese offer

At my parents house, *forgot what happened*, then with people at the table, a man offers us an orange cheese. Apparently, the smell is strong, but I almost don't smell anything because I'm used to strong cheese.

Concrete Minecraft ravine

Me, a man with glasses and a guy from high school in a car in front of my parents house, playing Minecraft, but IRL : I'm going to cut a (probably apple) pie representing our Minecraft world. The high school guy knows I'm the cutting pro, he tells me when to stop, and I cut the pie at that moment. It forms a ravine in our Minecraft world IRL (in the back seat of the car). The man with glasses leaves, and the guy has become another guy from high school. He's adding liquid concrete to the base of the IRL ravine (which is a black iron plank), but I realize that it shouldn't have been concreted. I call the man with glasses to explain the mistake. He tells me to simply make a series of inputs to fix it. I struggle to remember it. We try to remove the concrete, not dry yet.

Road trip on the highway

A group of five friends is traveling in France, in a pickup truck on the highway. The guys are in the open trunk (they could easily fall), one girl is driving and another girl is next to her. The driver almost completely gets out of the window (while still driving with one hand) to film the road trip with her camera on a selfie stick.

Confusing vegetables

I'm a cashier in a grocery store, there are new checkouts where you weigh fruits and vegetables by selecting them on a computer, in a super long and messy list. I'm struggling to find the eggplant. The beatboxer Wing (who also works as a cashier with me) helps me and I find it. But I still need help for the other items, as three annoying pop-ups appear. One of the three teenage guys waiting at the checkout helps me. I have to double-click Delete. I can't find the Delete icon, so the guy takes the mouse and tries to find it in the top right corner of the screen but there's nothing. Then at the normal checkouts, people are piling up at Wing's checkout, I try to call him, as a colleague on the phone comes out of the office. All along I had Wing's GBB25 World league solo wildcard playing in my mind.

Pool quicksand and my crazy restaurant (LD)



In front of a house, half of the garden is replaced with a very deep pool, and where I am is a long rectangular layer of quicksand on top of the water. Some female friends and I pass through it for a laugh, when at one point I sink to the bottom of the pool *dramatic scene*.

Then I wake up in town, when a big agressive white dog is trying to bite my friends (one of them is wearing a hamburger costume). While trying to scare him away, the dog advances towards me, growling. I back away. If he tries to bite my stomach, I could in theory stick my thumbs in his eyes and knee him in the throat (it didn't happen).

Then I'm the owner of a restaurant in town, in a cobblestone alley : an outdoor terrace. I can control a lot of things. I know I'm lucid dreaming, but I don't really pay attention to it, because I'm too busy managing things in my restaurant and near it *forgot what happened but it was chaotic and hilarious*.

I return to my outdoor terrace. The customers are talking about Sping-Ling Ding-Diling : a chinese woman who is literally a thick dorito-shaped pencil. I'd like her to come to my restaurant, but she's at work. Then everyone at my terrace start improvising the same song (which makes no sense, random words) with the music "Come To The Circus (DirtyPaws remix)". First to sing is a woman (probably from Paris) with curly brown hair, a green beret and black sweater, green jacket and green pants, and a glass of wine. Very classy. I'm the one making them improvise the song with my thoughts.

At the same time, I start to accidentally make an evil bass (beatbox sound) when I exhale, snoring a bit when I inhale, and I see my body IRL in my bed from time to time. I'm going to wake up...

Dream 1
I decide to shoplift something from a brand bc I enjoyed it in a previous dream, I wanted a dark lipstick but I got caught and then the shopowner who was 51 years old suspected me because I wanted a jacket with literal oranges on it. The zipper was half peeled banana though.
I run out of the store and lose him, I'm also 17 in the dream. Papaoutai by Stromae was playing in the background.

Lucid dream
I break into a house to help a squirrel. There are coconuts there. Then I'm in a lambo where I become lucid and try take a photo but it doesn't work.

Dream fragment
- Watching some streamer with my friend who keeps falling off his chair.

My numbering was off. Whoops.

Holy crap, I took up two whole pages of writing. Let's see how much I can actually read from last night's notes.

Maybe the recipe is staying up later than usual + sleeping in later than usual + utter exhaustion by EOD. Plus, waking up multiple times in the morning then deciding nah, I'm going back to sleep.

• Hypnagogic Imagery: Wicked but wand-car. (What does this mean? I have no idea. But I wrote it down with the tag "hypna" next to it, so. )
• Dream: I was playing a spooky backrooms-themed video game.
• Dream: I was with my extended family in a spaceship, trying to make plans. We were hiding under an invisibility cloak that covered the entire spaceship. It was held together by Sonic. (????? What does this mean, version of me who wrote this at 2 AM?!) And then the whole world morphed into a backrooms game (like the earlier dream) and it had spooky noises.
• Fragment: Another dream with "some white dude" (geez lol) whatever that means.
• Attempted DEILD; failed.
• Dream: I was detaching a multicolored gel pen from a wall that it was stuck to, using a pair of scissors.
• Dream: I was taking a survey about satisfaction. It also asked me, "What scares you the most about life?" I don't remmeber what I answered.
• Dream: I was at a POOOOL (taken verbatim from my journal; I think I fell into a microsleep while writing the Os and my hand just kept going) with 2 others, including a lady who was not wearing any bottoms. LOL. We were plotting out our next move, like Pokemon. (???? I guess we lived together, but I don't know what Pokemon has to do with anything) I said "If it's not tropical, I'm not going." One lady in the pool suggested moving to this beach urban city, but it wasn't tropical. IIRC the weather was more like the Pacific Northwest. It was very pretty though, the image that came to my mind, with black buildings, foggy skies, greenery, and the ocean.
• At this point, it was morning, but I kept going back to sleep. I did a series of 4 WBTBs, but they were all extremely short -- I just got up to pee then went back to sleep. I failed all 4 of them. I could have stayed up longer but I was tired and I knew I had work tonight so I had to get my rest when I could. This did allow for more non-lucid recall.
• Lucid Dream: DEILD success but very briefly. T and I were in a house. I had a body pillow AGAIN (is this going to become a recurring theme? ha) and I was surrounded by some weebs "but still in@sure" -- I don't know what the part in quote means. I was confused as to why I had brought a body pillow to breakfast, because that's what we were doing, having breakfast. I remembered that I could teleport, so T and I did so together, back to our hotel room to drop it off. And THEN of course I went lucid. Because my normal reality checks didn't appear in my dreams, but teleportation did, and THAT is what made me lucid. Teleportation. Self-consciousness. And. Freaking. Body. Pillows. Unfortunately, I woke up before I could start my next task, flight, and immediately tried DEILD/chaining.
• DEILD attempt: I felt a lot of pleasant buzzing but still woke up. Need to keep persisting. Trying to relax.
• Dream: I was working at an office, but I kept falling asleep while trying to type terminal commands into Git Bash. I kept messing the commands up as a result. The other employee next to me was tired too. I checked some fun site for some reason, but my dream-boss saw me doing it. Also, there was a choir in the office singing for some reason. Falling asleep in a dream is a weird experience. It kinda felt like just...losing consciousness altogether then re-entering the same dream a second later.

I ascend to the upper level of the home and the scene dims a bit. I walk forward and my awareness raises. I’m lucid. I feel like I want to travel back down to ground level and figure that phasing straight through a couple floors will be the easiest way. I phase my body into the floor, yet don’t pop out to the lower level; I seem to be…stuck fully in the floor. I phase back out and figure I’ll just explore a bit more. I head forward, yet begin to wake up.

1. The Chef
I’m walking with a group in a dim area and become lucid. I fly forward a bit in the dim area that looks somewhat like a theater and consider searching for dream characters. The dream dims rapidly and I begin to go to void. I stop and breathe slowly, getting a feel for my dream body and stabilizing. I get ready for teleport and begin waiting for a new scene. Soon, a small square window begins to form in the middle of my visual field. I see what appears to be the back of a vehicle forming and I grab on. I’m gripping the back of a large delivery truck as it heads down a road. I climb higher, yet there’s quite a bit of resistance. I reach the top and see several people sitting on top of several metallic sacks. I figure heading upward is a waste of time and I drift off and begin to fly toward the side of the road, beyond the car just behind the vehicle. There’s some type of shop area ahead and I fly into the walkway next to it. I pass by a rack of what appears to be herbs in small containers. I grab one to eat the contents, but figure it’ll taste nasty and simply put it back. I figure I’ll just look for a burger place instead; I’m a bit hungry. I fly up ahead a bit and see a few shops to the right. I curve into one of them. I hear sizzling and see a lady cooking some slices of meat on a skillet in an area set into the left side of the shop. I ask for a burger. She nods in agreement and begins to pull one up using a spatula. I begin to wake up.


2. Floating City Square
I’m talking to a fairly tall man outside of a tall building. I become lucid.
“We’re dreaming, man ” I tell him with a small as I put my hand forward, touching him and telling him to follow me. I see a lady on a phone and laugh, saying that there’s no need for it. I grab the phone, toss it, then grab the lady and fling her several hundred yards ahead, high into the sky. I then tk her back to the ground, placing her down where she was. She is highly translucent however. I head forward and I see the road fork to the left, leading to a wide road between tall tan buildings, and another section heads to the right - I head that way. The right path leads to an alcove with a small kitchen area. Light tan counters are situated on three of the walls comprising the kitchen perimeter, yet have somewhat of a bathroom counter type look. I enter and consider finding something eat. I see what appears to be a pepper shaker and figure I should basic summon something. I decide on a shampoo bottle due to the bathroom type feel. I turn yet don’t see anything. I leave the area and head down the main walkway down the left path. I begin to fly down, yet the dream begins to go to void. I hold my awareness, yet the dream begins to feel as though it’s waning.

Regained Lucidity.
I’m in a dim area next to somebody. I become lucid. I head forward in the room, yet the dream becomes dim once again.
Soon, I see some objects that appear to be palm trees. They comprise just the center of my visual field. Beautiful purples hues begins to fill in around the massive palm trees, as though it’s just past sunset. I begin to make my way into the scene and the visuals suddenly fill my entire visual field. The scene rapidly turn to daytime and I begin flying toward a floating stone platform. As I draw nearer, I notice that It appears to be a city center. I continue to fly steadily and begin to notice many small humanoids walking around the floating platform, milling around several structures, at least one pyramidal in shape. I float above the area, considering exploring, yet notice that there aren’t any interesting buildings to explore. I look below to ground level, sitting about one hundred yards below and notice that an entire town is beneath me. I figure there will be some interesting shops there. I begin to fly down to the town, yet wake up.

Coin Search:
I wakeup in a hotel in California, where I just was a few weeks ago.
Out of habit I do a hands reality check. I only have four fingers per hand (no thumbs).
I follow-up with a nose reality check to verify. I can breathe. I become lucid.
I try to remember what I want to do, but the first thing to occur to me is to look for DV coins in my pocket like I planned.
I start rummaging in my pockets and feel a bunch of textures of what feel like large pieces of plastic, but no coin.
I realize the acronym EV I've been rehearsing, means Engage-Verbalize, so I start rubbing the walls and saying "this is a dream, I'm dreaming, this is a dream..."
But my lucidity fades fast.
...
I'm at the same hotel, but this time I'm with my girlfriend, her sister KH, and KH's husband SH.
We're playing a game, where I was supposed to have hidden a number of beers for them to find.
I'm trying to stealthily hide the beers as they look for them, and simply pretend that they are well hidden.
Later I notice that my friend PG is there as well.

Got my first LD of the comp ! I was too tired to do everything I wanted in it, but that's still progress. First succesfull WILD of the comp, after my 2nd WBTB of the night.

Super Mario News



A news anchor who looks like the singer Mika is waiting for Trump to confirm a move before he can start the news. A 10-second countdown begins. *Glitching animated image of him* To present the news, he plays Super Mario Bros. There's Bowser as a casual enemy. But the game wasn't coded properly : less gravity so everything is slower, no sounds when Mario takes a mushroom or a star... The presenter still enthusiastically comments the letsplay, swears, answers the chat...

Monsters (feat. Monster)

At my brother's house, in the bathroom, I imagine a streamer playing Tekken 7. Then at my parents house, at night, two nephews are sleeping, I go to the bathroom, but bad thoughts enter my mind : I imagine monsters appearing (a giant purple caterpillar and some others), while "Monster" by Meg & Dia is playing in my head. I brush my teeth and go back to my room, luckily no monsters appeared

Too sleepy to sing along (FA, LD)

At my brother's house, in my bed, some family arrives, my brother-in-law gives me a lamp and some phone chargers, I ask them if it's a dream or not (just to be sure), no answer. Then a nephew comes over to me, I dap him up, and he begins singing. I morph him into another nephew two times. Then I'm alone, still in bed, my hand is very blurry, as if erased. I hear snoring next to me, I'm too tired to continue the dream. I fall back asleep and open my eyes again, wanting to continue the lucid dream, but I woke up...

Lucid dream
I enter sleep paralysis right before entering a dream. Then I become lucid. I ask my mum in the dream to take me to the void but it doesn't work.

Dream 1
Dreamt I was playing a shooter survival game that's kinda like black mirror.

Dream 2
Everyone on my block is given letters with a bomb attached saying we must open them and obey what they say but we group together and decide to not do it.

Lucid dream
In my old apartment with my family with the same people from my block. My cat is there. I change one dream character's age to be older. Then my cat goes missing bc someone opened all the windows and doors and I try find him but there are clones of him everywhere. I grab a lookalike but the character I aged up tells me that's not him so he decides to help me find him. I feel sad for the other cat so I decide to adopt him. We jump out of the window because the DC says there's some lava being held back by ice which is making the environment cold and the only way to fix it is to melt it. So we melt it together so the lava can flow again warming the place up.

I almost lose lucidity so to stabilise it I remember a tip where you give up trying to control the dream and just go with it. I end up meeting one of my celebrity crushes who I literally run into and get a nosebleed from. He apologises.

Lucid dream
In my apartment again. I decide the only way for my cat to be happy is to let him outside so I tell my mum in the dream to only let him out when it's warm. I make eye contact with other DCs in a bus passing by. I try to notice flaws in the environment bc I have a theory dreams follow AI logic where they seem normal but when you look closer they're just generated using what your brain knows to form new locations which have some errors when you look closer.

I enter a bus and try to enter the void by saying "exit simulation". It's dark but not the void. The DCs say it's cool but wtf am I doing.

I get off the bus, someone's drink spills. I'm with my mum and my cat is sleeping in my arms. It's raining and I ask her where we're going. She says here and points to a lake where I see a rickety old house and I'm like HERE? She says no, and points to a hotel next to the lake. We go inside and chat to the lady to book a room.

Dream 1
Awful dream where I'm just arguing with my parents and I felt sad the entire time.

Dream 2
I'm in my apartment again, in a better mood. People are in my home and I fight them off and rescue it. My cat has had kittens with another cat and they're all super cute with different personalities.

Dream 3
Again similar location but suddenly there are 7 kittens, and the darkest one is the best behaved one. I just play with them the whole dream.

Lucid dream
I'm in my grandma's apartment in a random room and suddenly become lucid. My grandma and mum are there. I decide to enter the void as it's my goal. I jump out of the window and fail and wake up. So I re-enter the dream and this happens 4 times. Each time I'm in a different room. In one of them I see a swamp with hippos aside, push away the character next to me and run to the other room where I jump out of the window again.

Then I try to meditate in a dream and it feels kinda cool. The void isn't real but it looks more gray than black.

Then I have a false awakening.

1. Restaurant
I walk with Aro to a lower area in the night. I become lucid. I see that there’s a restaurant area at the bottom of a small flight of steps. I feel happy to be lucid and I glance at several of the shops in the distance, just beyond the restaurant. There seems to be some type of game shop and a couple others that I can’t quite discern. I figure we can head there in a minute, but I want to check out the restaurant. I pat Aro on the back and tell him we can go in to get some food. I walk past a couple of booths to my left and see a waiter coming down the main walkway. I see a large man in a booth to my left eating some ribs and fries. I snap to go invisible, sit a cross from him and eat a couple of fries from the white plate. He doesn’t appear to notice me at all. I get up and sit at the empty booth just beyond and Aro follow me. There’s a plate of fries as well as a plate with a portion of a burger. I grab some ketchup and put it on the plate with the burger. I go to take a bite, yet wake up.


2. Gravity Flux
I’m in a very dim room and become lucid. I begin flying around and head toward a near wall, ready to teleport. I fly a bit further, yet feel that I’m waking up.

Regained lucidity
I’m standing on the upper walkway in main house Meadow, just next to the railing. This feels…dreamlike…nose pinch. I’m lucid. I fly over the railing and float down below. I head toward the front and head out into midday light. I look around, considering where I want to explore to. I figure I’ll explore a bit farther down to the right as I’ve been across the street quite a bit lately. I begin flying to the right, heading past Bud house. I notice that the next house is a bit closer than I remember it begging. I decide not to head into Bud house again, but to explore further down. I continue flying and head toward a building positioned much farther in the distance. As I fly, I hear a group of students participating in some type of sporting event. Bay seems to be leading them. I notice how long I”ve been flying and how stale everything feels. I figure some super speed will help me reach the building in time. I begin flying faster, yet not quite kicking into super speed gear. I reach the building quickly and notice a stainless steel sink with a faucet set into the side of the building. I may as well drink from it and get a few points. I turn on the faucet and drink a bit of water. I finally enter though the door and go into a fairly large rectangular room that appears a bit dingey. There’s an old, large couch to my right with smaller, single sofa seats on either side. Far down to the left, I see a couple large sets of metal shelving. I head into the center and raise my right and in front of me, grounding. I take a couple slow deep breaths before turning to the couches. I hoist the large couch up, but figure I could do that in waking life anyway. I then lift the entire couch with one arm. I back up and go for tk. I tk the large couch, but figure it’s not heavy enough to count for mass. I tk the additional two sofa seats, but know that it’s still only three. I head through the doorway and enter a larger room that extends far down to the left. I decide to basic summon a drink and see a vending machine in front of me. I imagine a Pepsi and as I look into the machine, I quickly spot one. I grab it, then follow the walkway and hear several people talking, as though there's gathering farther down. People begin talking about cancer, and explaining how certain depictions in the glass displays represent its progression. I find it a bit weird. I head a bit farther, grab one of the people, and fly farther down before dropping them off. I head farther into the room before turning right and heading toward what appears to be the receiving area of a large establishment. There’s another room farther down and some type of storage area to my right. I see a few cube shaped stacks of large sacks that appear to have some type of heavy, grain type material inside. I tk one, then another, then three to four more for a total of roughly six huge sacks. I let them drop and explore back toward the entrance. I see a small, closet shaped room next to the entryway. I enter and see a couple other people along with some type of arcade machine. I begin thinking of other control to play with and decide to shift gravity. I flip upward, then notice how I want everything in the room to shift. I focus, and suddenly, everything heads toward the ceiling, including the people and the machine. I revert gravity, and get ready to explore a bit more.

I walk away from the stone seats and head toward a grassy area to the left. I become lucid. I look to the near distance and see a lake stretching far back in the night. The top of the water is glistening under moonlight. I begin to think of some dream control and decide to invert and jump from one arm. I flip up into a one arm handstand and begin jumping up from the single arm. I repeat this several times before reverting to standing. I walk forward a bit toward the water and notice two small creatures. They appear to be miniature T-rexes. I go for TK and begin to lift both of them up. I then decide to play with adjusting size and focus on the one to the right. I begin enlarging it as it levitates in the air. I head forward a bit, yet the visuals begin to dim rapidly. I decide to go for a full phase to teleport. I head toward the wall to my right as the visuals darken more. Soon, I’m in void. I hold my awareness for a moment, yet the lucidity wanes as I think I’m waking up.

Another lucid after a WBTB

I am on a beach. This time I am very lucid and I have no doubt in my mind that this one is worth counting for full points.

The beach is an OTD environment. The weather is cloudy with a dark storm out at sea. The clouds are very vivid and detailed, they seem to be stacked up and up as I look into the sky in this massive cumulonimbus cloud. It is windy but it is not raining though I occasionally hear a stroke of thunder.

The beach also has a strange pattern, like there is a subsurface layer of concrete or stone with sand over it with corrugations or waves about every half-meter. Man-made in nature its not a natural formation. Thus the beach (or at least this section of it) alternates between a thin layer of sand and raw stone. I remember as I am walking (barefoot and by the looks of it in-form) the ground beneath my feet properly changes texture and resiliency. I experiment with it, seeing if the pattern is correctly maintained even when I am not looking just judging where my feet should be.

I think that this is a lucid dreaming competition, and a lot of points are awarded for dream control so I had best start racking that up. I set an intention to keep the dream long and stable and remember all of it. I decide to start simple and start running. This form is much more capable and athletic than my waking form. Even on sand running at great speed is effortless, and there is no strain in my knees or ankles or no difficulty breathing. I don't know if I could take points for super speed its tough to say if this was just a fast run but one that a normal person could do.

I took off and launched myself, pushing energy down to create my rockets. This works though there is still lethargy in the rockets, the flame is pitiful and doesn't provide much propulsion. I still get a long leap traveling down the beach, maybe two meters vertical and ten meters distance. I try again pushing down a little harder and get a bit more altitude. Still I'm barely flying but I manage to stay in the air long enough to fly in a circle and do a flip in the air before landing, but I'm still dealing with impotence. I decide to land and surrender that task, supposing I've done enough to count for basic flight. And because the dream is really vivid even this very low-level flying is exhilirating.

I then meet a dream figure, a larger man carrying a large white bag it looks like it would contain topsoil or rock salt or something, but the label says like "Moo Moo Strawberry Milkshake Mixture Powder". The man starts talking to me trying to convince me to try/drink his beverage because it has health benefits. He shows me the drink in some small cups set out on a table and I think I should try it (knowing you can get points for eating or drinking something). But I don't get around to drinking it. Instead, for some plot reason I don't remember he gives me a black thumb drive and tells me to read the data on it. The data is the formulation for this mixture.

The dream scene transitions to a library or study in a fancy mansion or old university. I use a summoning trick to pull out a slate (a slate is a small highly advanced crystal computer which I have used a couple of times). I use a sort of adapter to connect the modern flash drive to highly futuristic crystal computer. I try to activate the device though it doesn't seem to work, the device won't even activate.

I shrug and surrender that this isn't working and that I'm not particularly interested in this plotline anyways. The dream scene changes again. Now I'm in my childhood home. The dream is substantially less vivid. I decide I will attempt to summon Manei, even though I have been in this situation many times before, having lucid dreams of being alone in my childhood home attempting to execute dream control. I think about how my theory is that mundanity and grounded-ness of the location might unconsciously stifle all my dream control attempts as I think of it too much as a purely 'real' location. Thus the rules of waking reality are imposed.

I meander around for a bit calling her name, opening doors with the anticipation of finding her behind them and using my old summoning command. Just a "throw crap at the wall and see what sticks." Though I know this has never worked. Eventually I get frustrated since I have dealt with this situation so many times before over many years (clearly no longer fully lucid at this point as I am getting tainted by emotion) and try to brute force it. I just concentrate on an area and visualize her appearing very intensely, like imposing your imagination on waking reality. This actually seems to partially work and I can see her starting to manifest sort of like wet paint being washed away in reverse the right colors and shapes are starting to come in. Each time the visualization starts to unravel or she is just becoming me talking to myself I yell "stop!" and try to keep her 'physical' form from unraveling. I managed to get her left hand completely solidified and started to pull on it, trying to get the rest of her out of the fog. But the physical effort translated to the waking world where I was yanking and thrashing in my bed, causing me to wake up.
