lucid

I had a frag about some chick with saggy breasts. *I remember getting into the car with her, and squeezing them....thick orangish fluid was coming out of her nipple. *There was some other stuff that happened, but I cant piece it together. update I remember being on some ship or boat, that we had to manually operate with these devices that we had to press with our feet. There boat had all this water inside it and it was ice cold.

Edit:

I think I had a WILD....I don't think that I did much though...just walking around the house and things ended.

I also remember a frag about wearing jackets. I was putting two on because I was so cold.

Non-lucid, Lucid, Dream within a dream, [Commentary made while awake]

[This is a catch-up post. These dreams are from the night of December 13-14, 2010.]

[Note: I'm writing this entry well after the fact, working from handwritten notes, and even when I made the handwritten notes, I wasn't sure in what order the dream scenes had occurred. When writing this entry, I just arbitrarily put them in an order that made some kind of sense to me.]

I wake up in my bed in my room at House #1. A big, strong man is invading my bed and trying to attack me. I'm scared, and I try to get P.'s attention by yelling for her, but no one comes. I manage to evade him and escape. I know that once I'm standing up, I'm safe. I feel upset after this experience, so, to cheer myself up, I decide to go off and have a lucid flying dream.

The flying dream begins, and now I'm definitely lucid. [Yeah, that's right. In the aftermath of a regular nightmare, my non-lucid dream self decided she wanted to have a particular kind of lucid dream to cheer herself up, and my mind obliged. Weirdest DILD technique ever, but it's a pretty cool story.] At first, the dream is in third person, and I see myself flying over a beautiful town that fills a beautiful valley [now that I think of it, it looked a lot like the one in Kiki's Delivery Service]. I see another girl also flying over the town, unaided, the same way I'm flying. I consciously, deliberately shift to first-person perspective [That's a pretty neat trick. I wish I understood how I did it.] and approach closer to the other girl. I recognize her as Chihiro from Spirited Away. I come right up beside her and ask her, “This is a good way to fly, isn't it?”

“Mm-hmm!” she answers cheerfully.

I decide to ask the same question again, in Japanese this time, just for fun and because I can. “Fly no shikata wa sui ne?” [trans: “(This) way of flying is good, isn't it?” Again, dream!Japanese is weird – the word for “good” is ii in reality, not sui.]

"Un!" [trans: “Yeah!”] Chihiro answers. She continues talking in a language that I take to be Japanese at first, because the sounds of it are characteristic of Japanese, but after listening for a few seconds, I realize that the words are actually Spanish.

[Dreamskip.] I'm on foot, exploring some old, pretty brick buildings.

I wake up in my bedroom in House #1 again. P. is sitting at a table in the room, writing an essay.

I'm telling my family about the DreamViews website, but lying about its nature and telling them that it's strictly fandom-related. I tell them that my username there is “Stupid Top.” When P. finds out that I've been writing about the dreams that I've had about her, she gets sad and angry, and cries.

I wake up again in a variant of my bedroom in House #1. P. and I are in the bottom bunk together. Elsewhere in the house, there is a larger room that resembles the patio of our grandparents' house. A bunch of people from church come into the bedroom, and I explain that this is our old bedroom, and we used to share the full bed (we had just pushed our full mattress off the top bunk and onto the floor), not this twin bed. A woman in the group corrects me, calling the full bed a [something I can't remember] twin. I go along with it. The youngest S. girl is put into the full bed by her parents, but she doesn't want to take a nap.

I'm in a parking garage, and I randomly find some panties.

I'm reading a book that introduces the reader to a code of spiritual laws and rules that I realize are of Mormon origin when I see a citation that says something like “Uses 21:7” [e.g., a citation from a book whose name I don't recognize]. One of the rules in the book specifically forbids entering holes populated by worms for long dreaming. It surprises me to find that the people who wrote this book both knew about lucid dreaming and made a rule about it. [Yes, I did read the thread about why it's hard to get to the moon, and I think that's what inspired this dream.]

I'm exploring a building somewhere, and my friend Mary T. is there. [Day residue; I'd seen her the day before I had this dream.]

I'm driving over the bridge on W. Road that crosses over I-15, heading toward a buffet-style cafe, where I routinely go for breakfast [only in this dream, not in real life].

Oh my gosh yay!! Super happy!

Here are my 3 dreams!
I was at my friend's step grandmas house. She had cancer. My mom was there too, she has scoliosis and my grandma with cancer was there. I suddly thought, "Howd i get here?" and i did a reality check and I became lucid. I cured all the people there and I was so happy! I don't remember the rest, I woke up pretty soon after that.

The next one, I was at my boyfriends house. His best friend was there too. I suddenly wondered, again, how id gotten there. So i did another reality check and became lucid. I ran up to my "boyfriend" and hugged him. Then I kissed him, having never done that before I had really wanted to. Then I sat on his couch and leaned against him. Since i knew it was a dream I didn't find it intimidating. So I kissed him again. Then the dream ended and I woke up.

I was at a beach and i saw that ben k. was there. I AGAIN asked myself how i had gotten there and did a RC. Then I became lucid and ran up to ben. I said hi to him and he said hi. He looked bored. i asked him what was wrong and he told me that he just got dumped. so I tried to control the setting to make him happier. I spun around and the background changed. I was in my backyard, ben still there. I hugged him and said "its okay. We've all gotten dumped at one point in our lives. And anyway, this is a dream. So dont worry 'bout it. lets have fun! So he smiled and kissed my cheek (which made me happy cuz it was just awesome) and said "What's a dream anyways?" So i just shrugged "dont worry bout it. it dosnt matter" and he said "ok". Then I sat on the picnic table and he sat next to me and I hugged him and put my head on his shoulder. I loved this dream. Ben leaned his head on mine then and i grinned to myself. Then I woke up.

Then here's the nonlucid dream I had last night:
I was at my grandmas house. I seemed really tired and i layed on something, i dont remember what though. Then it felt soft (this was right before i woke up so i think it was my bed...) then I smiled and woke up.

I feel like ive accomplished something now. (oh and sorry about my bad grammar today. I didnt wanna take too long to type so yeah)

Have had a few people mention that they'd like to read some of my dreams. I have 11mos writting down on paper because I like to draw pics of things I see as I'm a visual person. Haven't written anytihng down on paper since Sep, so all on Word and no pics. Oh well

Anyway, I'll put up a few good ones that I've written down before starting on recent stuff. I'm only going to put interesting ones up. (Also, I use lots of abbreviations [spelling mistakes because I'm trying to be quick in typing and don't care to correct it]. I also write down one word things that may sound weird to you, but I know what it means. Last names will be written as "XXXXX" as I use last names sometimes as clarification. Any other discrepencies, eh, just comment and I'll sort it out). Hope you like it

Format- Date(night of going to sleep- morning of waking up). Time(going to sleep). 2nd time(woke up from dream). (Sometimes I forget time I went to sleep, or time I woke up)

5/18-19. 12. On some sort of fam trip. Hiking from somewhere on a ridgeline. Some steep parts. Get to a flatter area. Chopper comes by us. I have to them and one guy waves back with a hand signal. See a plane and dad says it’s an A10, but I say No. Get to a dirt road. Desert like. (have been in this place before in another dream). Turns into a little gift store. Looking at displays on the geology of the area. Play with a fault moving thing. Mess it up and try to fix it but the instructions are in Russian. Then I’m on a quad.

All back up on rock when planes and A10’s start attacking us and strafing . I get to the end of the rock we’re on and take cover. Best spot because they can’t line up for it. Go back up on rock, but get back down. Then I’m fighting baddies in a town. Shooting at the, both sides have horrible aim. I stay at a section of a hall and outside and hold it. Some lady likes my help and grabs my hand. Then I’m at the rock again. Run around it. Start to get strafed so dodge into a large crack which leads back to the city fighting

6/15-18. 12. Somehow lost in SD. Try to get directions for a guy that looked like the guy that took Ferris Bueller’s red car. Find a way, but ends up being the wrong way. Map I’m using is lame. Tell dad to pull off when he can to read map better. He says the area’s not a good one, and tell him to find a good area, but he pulls off anyway! I tell him to not stop and keep going to a safe spot. I’m then alone and then get picked up by a big huge black guy and he threatens me. Then talks about home taxes. I manage to escape. I hide behind a small garden fence and he shoots at me. I’m wearing kind of a big poofy jacket. Then escape to a rival gang of engineers. Then meet up with dad

6/25-26. In a school? German girl from Mesa Verde tough. Talking with her. Something happens and I get in trouble with a lot of women. They corner me in a small store.

Back at class and I approach the German girl, but she’s apprehensive. I explain I’m not sxist and the other stuff of the rumors. She cries, but believes me. She asks for my name and I tell her, but she keeps writing it down wrong. Baerin, or something. I correct her. We’re in a computer lab, so I get on a comp and go onto FaceBook and see German girl’s status that’s about trusting me? Her name is Baeron or something similar

Count my fingers by sight but miscount, so move them as I count and count 7(2 completely extra) and become lucid! Doesn’t hold and I lose lucidity but keep dreaming. Try to fix my hand again, but doesn’t work. Count fingers (same as before) and I have 6(coming out the middle of a finger, but seems to be like it was a pin and not actually attached), become lucid again! Start to lose lucidity again.

Edit: Sorry so long

So I was able to have my 3rd WILD, this sunday DEC 26th. I had had my first two WILD's the prior week, one on tue the 21st and the second on wed the 22nd. I tried the next couple of days but with so much on my mind with the holidays it seemed that I would try but would end up just laying there thinking about random stuff for about an hour and I would just give up and fall asleep normally. I still have not been able to become lucid during regular dreams either, only the WILD method seems to work for me becoming lucid. So sunday around 6pm I decide to give it another try and this time it works. LUCID #3; I wake up looking at the ceiling in my room and I notice that the scenery is not stable so I realize that I am dreaming right away, I roll off the side of my bed and land on my knees, at this point I crawl over to the first thing I find in my room which happens to be my shoe on the floor. I grab it and try to perform stabalizing techniques by putting the shoe about six inches from my face and examining the texture but not too carefully, also by feeling the shoe all the way around. This helps the dream to become clearer but not by much. I then stand up and rub my hands together and this works abit better, I continue by feeling my legs and stomach which I can feel but still does not stabalize the dream to where I want it, so I walk to my room door and open it to go to the living room. When I open my room door I see my dad come around the corner and he asks me if I can go with him to see my mom in the bedroom, he says "we are going to wake her up and surprise her for her birthday". At this point I make a weird face at him and think to myself (I know its december and it cannot be my mothers birthday, also my dad is trying to lead me to the backroom of my house and I know there is no way my mom would be sleeping over at my place) I am kind of scared of the fact that it could be my sub-concious trying to mess with me since I really dont know what the hell is stored up there, and so I totally ignore him and continue with my "goal" I had planned out. I had wrote down what my goal would be for my next dream (stabalizing my dream by engaging all five sences) I had planned to do this by going to my kitchen, grabbing my roomates coffee can and opening it, smelling the coffee, grabbing a small amount in my hand and then tasting the coffee ,and finally throwing the can as hard as possible against the wall so I could hear it (even though I had heard my dad talk to me and had knocked sound out already). So I go to the kitchen and open the pantry but the coffee can that is always there is missing, I get paranoid that my dream will fade out so I keep rubbing my hands over and over, I look in the pantry again and grab what looks to be a bottle of vinegar or oil which is filled to the top. I open the lid to smell it but once I put it up to my nose and breathe in, I accidently breathe in the fluid which feels like water (similar to being in a pool and breathing in water) I immediatly have to cough as it messes with my "dream breathing", however I was not able to smell anything. I forget to throw the bottle or to try to taste it due to me having coughed and trying to get my nomal breathing back, I just lay it down and decide to walk outside. I yell to my roomate on my way out because I can hear what seems to be the tv or music in the living room, I say " hey im taking off" to which he replies " sounds good man". I am happy that I could hear him and that i took care of hearing in my dream (even though I had heard my dad talk just a minute earlier but not payed attention to it). So I walk outside and the view is similar to the street I live on but different in a way as well. There seem to be more buildings than houses on my street and I know very well there is no business buildings anywhere around my neighborhood. The weather is also strange, it seems like it is about to rain by how cloudy it is outside, the clouds also seem to be very low to the ground for some reason ( about as low as a two or three story building). As soon as I decide to run out on the street and see exactly how far I can walk away from my house, it starts to sprinkle and I can feel every single drop hitting my body which was very cool. I get about a block from my house and decide to try to fly since I didnt have much luck in my last two lucids to do this, I get a good run going and then dive outward but I do not go up or down, I just glide at about waist high for about 10 or 15 yards then slowly start dropping and land on my stomach. From here on out I seem to either lose lucidity or I simply start thinking of something else, but before I know it I am in what seems to be an old dorm room at my old highschool. I do not recognize the room or the kid in it but I am still somewhat lucid. I look around and rub my hands to stabalize the dream again since it seems very hazy, it works but not that well. I look around the room and I spot out a bag of sunflower seeds, I instantly grab it and stick about four or five in my mouth, the taste is very real, they are extremely salty ranch flavored seeds and I get very stoked at the fact that I have knocked out "taste" as well. At this point for some reason my eyes just open and I am wide awake.
I was unhappy that I woke up but yet very excited that I had another WILD since I was getting frustrated from my prior attempts that week and weekend.

I would appreciate tips as to how I can prolong the dream state and also how I can make it as lucid and clear as possible. I have tried the common methods of stabalizing (rubbing hands, engaging sences, trying to look at the texture of something) but they do not seem to work that well or atleast they didnt this time. For some reason my dream still seems to want to fade out pretty often. Thanks guys!

I was at a gas station. It was a bright and sunny day. I was in an industrial area; lots of grey buildings, and a busy highway to one side.

I was looking off at the highway and thinking something about Stone. Then I saw a truck that said "i eat moar nao". I somehow knew that the eating had to do with something weird that you wouldn't eat, something electronic. Then I called Stone and told him that I saw his truck.

Then I was just standing there, thinking. I was contemplating shared dreaming. There must be a way, I thought, there's no way that it could be coincidence between so many people on the forums. What if we could really ascend to one plane while dreaming? There must be some way.

Then it suddenly occurred to me that I was dreaming. I did a quick nose pinch RC. I decided I should try to fly away and do something else. I think I jumped from something, but just fell down. I looked up and tried to imagine shooting myself up towards the sky. Then, (stupidly,) I closed my eyes, almost like a blink. And then I was awake (!@$%*&^!).

---

There was some fragment of being in a building... some kind of game or something, with lots of people.

---

A vague memory of something having to do with food.

Notes:
- first lucid in quite a while... I kind of lost it. Been having trouble sleeping lately, and the only reason I even have a chance at this now is because it's the holidays... I'm really hoping I can maintain this once the holidays are over. And I'm hoping it won't take me another year to get regular LDs again.

The 27th of December is going to be my lucid anniversary, from now on. This is because, from 6:30 to 6:50, I had my first lucid dream. I sacrificed a fresh full english breakfast (heated it up instead, tasted mediocre) for this dream.

Key:
Dream Lucid Semi Lucid Non-Dream

I woke up at about 4:02-4:22am, and sat around on my iPod until about 6:10. Then, I have no idea what happened between then and the dream, wether or not I fell asleep or tried WILD, but I went in to the dream. I had several dream fragments.

Fragment 1: Non Lucid
I was in a fancy looking restaurant, reminiscent of the local steak house. The walls were cream colored stone, with fancy red decor everywhere. Wooden chairs and columns were there too. Windows showed a road with some grass, outside. I was sat on the edge of a table with the kid from outnumbered and some other famous people (I don't remember who, exactly). I had the feeling that we were hiding from someone (unsure why), so I got down and went prone. After crawling along the floor for a bit the dream faded.

Fragment 2: Bipods with iPods
I was walking in what I think was the car park of my school, with my iPod in hand. I saw two extremely tall people swinging their own iPods around like clubs, and I decided to put my iPod away and walk off just in case the worst happened. In the middle of putting my iPod away, my hands went right through each other, and I realized I was lucid. I was kind of aware before, but I thought I was just tripping out. I looked at my hands go through each other and then the dream faded out.

Dream: Beginning of an era
I got out of bed. My hands accidentally went through each other again. I was lucid. I wasn't as shocked or excited as I thought I would be, but I felt both of those feelings anyway. I got up. My house was dark, but my room was exactly the same as normal. I think there was a purple, space-like void outside. I walked downstairs, then back upstairs. I had so many ideas in my head. I settled with the lucid crossroads (http://www.lucidcrossroads.co.uk/), because I figured it would be the easiest way to get to a clear, daytime environment. I reached in my pocket like the website says, but I didn't pull out a badge like I thought I would. I pulled out thin air. Disappointed, I walked to my room, saying to myself "there will be a girl behind the door. There will be a girl behind the door." That didn't work either. I sat back down on my bed trying to think of what to do next, but I woke up out of a variety of emotions.

And that's how my first lucid dream was. As soon as I woke up, I hit my iPod's music button and the credits theme from misfits came on. That coincidence made me feel like I was in a movie. I went back to dicking around with my iPod and then fell asleep until 2:53pm. Yeah, I was catching up on christmas and boxing day. I didn't sleep much on those days.

I hope to have more, vivid lucid dreams. I hope I obtain more power and time, with every dream I have.

Supplements in the past day:
1x Hot Chocolate
1x Glass of apple juice
1x Chicken curry
1x Burger + Bun
0.5x Fishcake (it tasted bad)

I had a lucid dream!
So I slept last night but I actually didn't have a dream, I had one of those sleeps where you close your eyes and you open them again and it's morning.
But then I lay down multiple times after that and fell lightly asleep, and was repeatedly awakened by people shifting in their sleep (I am snowed in with multiple people) and so finally one time I woke up and saw a cartoon-looking blue chevron symbol on the fireplace. So I thought, "Huh, that's weird, that's not normally there! Hey, wait a minute, I'M DREAMING!" I felt a very strange sensation and calmed my self down, so as to prolong the dream. Then I decided to test what I could do. Being indoors, I couldn't fly, so I decided to try using my mind to move things. I threw the blue chevron across the room. It went through a wall. Then I felt myself waking up, and I sat down and tried to do one more thing, but then I woke up.
Before this, I had had a dream during one of these sleeps where there were people in the house (i.e. burglars) and so I was looking for a weapon and I found a knife that belonged to my grandfather, it was a swiss army knife except with the national symbol of Ireland. But all it had on it were kitchen utensils, so I looked on it, and eventually I found a carving knife. But then I woke up.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID FALSE AWAKENING

Good morning. Took me ages to fall asleep last night. Slept very lightly and had a few cool dreams the first hours of sleep. Took some calea, but ended up having weird semi-lucids where I explained my dreams to people and how the effects felt. Woke up and fell back asleep again several times. Had several FA's where I thought I wrote down my dreams on a laptop, or in my notebook. Finally the morning came and I am exhausted. Still got lucid!

01.00: Bedtime

03.15: Work related MILD
I'm in the locker room at work. Changing my clothes. I am soaked in sweat and I consider taking a shower. I lose my balance and fall to the floor, I get up and spot some weird wounds on Björn's chest. "Wtf, you look like the Terminator" I say and look closer at his wounds. I put on my working shoes again, they feel funny, too soft. When I'm done, I realise what I've done. I can see my white regular shoes on the floor. I sigh. Suddenly I'm helping this girl out to put out candles in a church. I guess it's a part of work. We close the doors and get out. I start talking to her in English. "I don't get it, why does people believe so much when it comes to religion, when it has basicly been proven how the world works with science?"

Nenne, a truckdriver from work pulls up in the wrong machine. "Hey Matteh! Did you see some beer in there?" he asks me. I tell him I haven't. "Oh right, it's too early for it" he tells me and is off. I start walking up hill. The girl takes off and I'm left standing outside a small store. "Check how much you've loaned, call 800.000 now!" I read on a paper on the wall. I get curious and enter the store. I don't really know what to get so I decide to get some gum. I point at some gum and the girl behind the counter tells me it's 50 kr. "Uhm, it says 12 here" I say and point at the gum's pricetag. "Oh right, sorry!" she tells me and laughs. She thought I was pointing at some dark chocolate bar. I give her the money and take my packet of gum.

I am really shaked up for some reason. I feel weak and so I leave the store. I continue walking the way I was heading, and arrive at a McDonald's. I spot the famous TV person Peter Jihde through the window. Suddenly I feel like I'm in a hurry. I enter the mall I've just come to, and dodge people as fast as I can walk. My feet starts hurting from all the dodging, but I ignore them. The mall seems to be shaped like a circle, and I walk all the way around, opening glass doors and entering those spinning ones. A small English kid is pushing the doors the wrong way. His grandpa just laughs. I come back to a place with a few broken doors, but this time one of them has stuck. I help a lady cut through the plastic with my knife. She tries to cut with the wrong side of the knife. I get insulation down my neck and on my wrists. "Damn I hate insulation" I say. She agrees.

The dream skips. I'm at work again, walking in a yard filled with trees. The ground is covered in freshly laid out dirt, and I spot tools everywhere leaning against the trees. I grab two rakes and head for the guy in charge of the work. It's Carl, a supervisor. I wonder why he's doing the dirty work. "Hey Carl, why are you stacking these rakes against the trees? People will trip" I tell him. I walk away.

The dream skips, my memory has some holes in it. I'm walking in a nice neighbourhood with one of the rakes in my hand. I spot a small house flying around in the sky. "Oh it's so cool that you can move entire houses in your dreams, and leave everything untouched" I start flying some, and end up near the water in a japanese-looking garden. There's a small pond and nicely stacked, flat stones on a wall. I can't see land on the other side of the water. I spot a huge house flying over my head, with the entire lot's furniture and all. Like it's frozen in place. This makes me want to fly. I jump up on the low wall. Testing the gravity I can tell it's slightly off as always.

After a few jumps, I am flying straight up. Holding the rake to the side, pointing it downwards. The rake feels just like an engine of some kind. "Gotta remember to focus on something when I fly" I think. I want to try to fly as high as possible. I quickly reach atleast a few km up in the blue sky. I can see where I came from, and it's an island, no more than a few cm's across from up here. There's ocean all around it and I decide to go back down. Flying in circles I try to descend smoothly, but I overdo it. I fly way past the island, then past it again on the way back. On the third time I fly past it, I crash into the water. I fly through the water towards the island, and manages to skate on the surface for a second.

03.15: Wrong bus
I'm on a bus going away from work. My dad is about to pick me up at a certain stop. I realise the bus is going the wrong way and I hit the button to make it stop. I get off and end up on the wrong side of the highway. I call my dad. He asks me why I am on the wrong side. There's a bridge not far away and I head for it. Crossing it, I spot a few workers down by a river. It's my dad and another guy. I slip on the muddy edge and fall in, luckily it's only up to my knees. We all laugh as I try to get up on the slippery slope. Mud gets everywhere and I fall in the water, dragging my dad with me.

05.00: Just weird #1
I'm with my family inside of a blue, plastic, mobile toilet booth. The entire thing is on wheels and we're going through the jungle. I've got a remote which I steer blindly with. I stop the thing and take a peak outside. The door won't open more than ten centimeters. I spot orange fur and huge monkey hands. I quickly close the door and locks it. "Holy shit, orangutan's! They are strong as hell" I say. Someone's tugging at the door handle from the other side. "Let's move out of here" I say and hold the handle from the inside just to be sure. We back up the booth with the remote, but get stuck after just a few meters. I take the remote and try to make us come out of it. The booth starts to lean sideways. I tell everyone to brace for the impact as it falls over. "Lie completely still and don't make a sound and they will go away" I whisper. It's starting to get very hot in there.

Dream skips. I'm at a café. Once again I walk up to the counter and is about to buy some gum. I get out my wallet and pours the cash on the counter. "I've got more gold coins than Pippi Longstocking!" I say as I spot atleast twenty of them. I give the girl behind the register two coins. I grab a plate with some left over chicken on it, I spill some grease on my pants. Just as I'm about to leave, a couple of kids enter the store. I head for the restroom's and starts taking a piss. The entire scene changes, I'm still taking a piss, but not in a toilet. I am standing at a frozen lake, overlooking a few docks going out from small houses with sauna's in them.

My dad is on the phone and I'm talking to him about work or something. I spot the kids further away on a dock, playing with the ice. I know it's not solid enough to play on, so I start walking towards the small house connected to my dock. Suddenly I hear a very loud scream. I quickly look at the boys and I can tell one of them is missing. I tell my dad to hold on, pocketing the phone I run as fast as I can through the houses. They yell the boy's name when I arrive at the beginning of the dock. Luckily they've just gotten him out of the water. I grab his arm and lead him towards the sauna's. He's sobbing and shaking from the cold. I notice he's got a star tattoo just like me on his shoulder. I tell him they have to be careful, then I joke a bit with him to get his spirits up. I realise my dad is probably still on the phone. I'm hoarse from screaming and I tell him the story.

05.00: Just weird #2 MILD



I'm sitting at the edge of a small table. I'm semi-lucid. George Clooney is sitting there, with a very good looking woman. I start talking about how awesome food tastes in dreams. "The pure temptations... The slightest look you give me, gives me such an incredible urge" I tell the woman at the table. She shivers. I tell everyone I want to taste some red wine. It's on the table but I don't. George starts talking to the woman, looking into her eyes. "You will commit suicide tonight, even if you want to or not" he tells her. Everything goes quiet. "That's a movie quote right?" I ask him. He looks at me for a few seconds, dead serious. "Yes ofcourse"

He starts saying the most random things. Like he's quoting lines from movies a madman has come up with. I get the feel that the night is their anniversary. Fireworks are exploding outside, but there's something wrong with the sound of the explosions. Instead of hollow bangs, I can hear glass shattering. It's quite frightening. I realise it's all a dream, but the lucidity level is low. I am sick of George and his insane quotes. I don't want the woman to kill herself, so I imagine him doing it instead. The woman grabs his throat and rips it out. There is no blood at all. As George gasps for air, he grabs his head with his hands and twists. Neck broken, he falls to the floor. I lose lucidity. Letting him lie on the floor, we start drinking milk from the carton, watching a small TV in the corner. I start wondering what would happen if I called my boss, asking him if all the things I've dreamt about were true. "Gotta make sure I know the difference" I tell myself.

10.00: Fragments
*I'm at a table at Tommy's. A pub here where I live. Infront of me is a plate filled with all kinds of food. It's the most amazing plate I've seen ever, with delicious fish, chicken and beef. I thank the owner for the food, but I don't remember trying anything out.

*I wake up and write down my dream on a laptop. It's a long and very awesome dream. I remember the feeling of awesomeness. Sadly I don't remember the actual dream. I do this two more times, but on regular paper during the night.

*I'm trying to direct traffic as a huge truck with three white, round tanks pulls up. I run away as I realise I will be squeezed to death.

11.30: Wake up

Amount of sleep: Around 6 hours total

Supplements before bed: 200 ml applejuice, 2 x Omega-3, Calea extract at 05.00

That's it! Pretty long and intense dreams. Two lucids in one night isn't too bad. Had the intentions of getting lucid last night, but like I said I ended up lying there for around two hours before I fell asleep for a few minutes. Filled with weird sensations, half dreams and semi-lucids. Bah!

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

non-dream - non-lucid - lucid

Note: This was very long so have tried adapting a more "to-the-point" format to try and fit it all in without boring the face off the reader. hope you enjoy.

27/12/10 The dream starts out with a snow storm, and there is a lot of snow.

I am at a friend's place, which also happen to be the place where I grew up.

The snow keeps on falling and towns and cities are being closed off gradually.

I stumble out in the snow although I am safe in my friend's place. I need to see if there is anyone out there in danger.

I get stuck in a little roadside bunker of sorts. I ride out the storm.

The next day the snow is smelting and there is a lot of water on the roads. And I notice how many issues it will cause if it freezes up again.

There is a drama between two men and women who switch partners during the dream, it causes a strain on their friendship.

The two men join opposing sports teams. We are in a pub at the conclusion of this. It is getting dark.

The dream changes plot.

Zombies. Thunder.

There is a radio in the roadside bunker and I overhear some communication between a captain of a ship and the governmental control that has to allow it into Danish national waters.

Zombies come out and I am in a place where I have to leave the safe house, walk up a tunnel while zombies swarm down. It is hard to get out.

I am back in the roadside bunker, there are two of us there.

We shoot zombies like there is no tomorrow. I get reminded of Mikkel (an old school friend) who is stuck in the tunnel safe house.

I make a dash for it to go help him out. With my assistance he gets out and join us in the roadside bunker.

Zombies are everywhere. There is a sniping zombie in one of the windows. I take his head clean off with a SPAS 12 shotgun. He turns out to be a cyborg zombie, and the other zombies try to get him working again, but it is useless without the head. I feel proud and we all joke about it in the bunker.

We are running out of ammo. We retreat further back into the bunker.

There is cable car leading out the back.

The problem with this plan of escape is that there is a massive zombie, a golem of sorts, in the yard below.

We attempt it anyway. I am starting to become aware of the fact that I am dreaming.

Our combined weight in the cart makes it skip across the surface of the snow, but we make it to the end.

The golem turns for us. We panic and start to run. We prepare to take shots at it. It speaks.

I call for my mates to hold fire. The golem explains that the virus just “left” him for some reason. I have a feeling that it is due to his level of intellect, but I speak to him, get a sample of his blood to see if a cure can be manufactured.

I encounter three smokers (Big tongued mofos that pull you in with it and want to eat you) and I take them on with nothing but bare hands and sheer defiance, and I win!

There is a montage (I swear to god (or any other non-specific deity of your choosing), there is a literal montage of us three taking out the elite crowd, while administering the cure to the lesser zombies, all perfectly narrated with a “and the future looks a little bit brighter” remark in the end)

I am now free of the plot and can do as I choose. I jump off a building. I jump from balcony to balcony downwards. It is quite tall.

I take off into flight. Can't quite manage it although I can keep afloat it is more of a floating sensation. I take great notice of the sea winds against my face. You gotta love being lucid!

I keep hearing my parents (in particular my mum XD) wanting to wake me up because we have to go somewhere. I will it off and continue just flying looking at things.

I eventually wake up. Although I am in my flat and there is no way my parents could have shouted at me.

Note: There might have been a FA that I recollect nothing off. It seems like I had to recall the dream through a third party.

14th LD: Jumping Through the City

I remember just jumping through a dark city. I was jumping over all the buildings in a quick fashion. It was so cool. I thought that this must be a dream, so I RCed and was lucid! I landed on a patch of grass by a building with a street lamp illuminating it. There didn't seem to be anybody around. I felt the grass inbetween my toes.. it almost felt like easter grass.
My lucid dream ended shortly after.

Babysitting a Puppy

I remember being in my school. There was a high schooler who needed somebody to babysit her puppy for her after school so she could take her exams. I offered, and she gave me the little puppy. I'm not sure if it was a lab or golden shepard, but it might have been a mix of both. I remember walking around the school with it. He would always follow me and it was so cute.

I would sit down and he would lay right next to me in the hallway.

- - - -

After the exams were supposed to be over, at about 6:30 p.m., I was supposed to go in the back to my car. Ken was taking me home. She came in and I told her I needed to take this puppy to so-and-so. Ken said she was outside in her car as well. I told her I didn't know where that was. So she took me, and I gave the puppy to her. But when I got a good look of her, she looked like my step-mom! Well the puppy was glad to see her.

I think Ken's car was a flying one, or I was looking down on everyone, because I remember somebody letting their golden lab out to use the restroom or something. So the little puppy ran after it, just a tad bit bigger now. He started chasing after the cars driving away, and another car cornered him between two cars. Now all of them looked like race cars. It was weird.

I was at my church with the Pathfinders. The leader was the main focus of my dream for some reason. After just standing around not doing much, we suddenly decided that we had to get in the car and go somewhere. After a short memory gap of our leader just driving, we were suddenly in the middle of Sydney with sky-scrapers all around.

The road in front of us suddenly went up almost vertically, and we were driving up it like normal. Kind of like Inception, but it was only the road, and it didn't curl over. We went really high up, but not above the buildings. The other side only had a small decline.

Suddenly I was outside the car, and lucid. I found myself standing in a marketplace like Chinatown. I rubbed my hands together (a personal favourite of mine) and kept doing so while walking down the narrow market lane. The kept on rubbing my hands, until my dream became so vivid that I could taste the city air. The small market buildings were bright yellow.

I decided I was stable enough to start flying without waking up accidentally. I sort of jumped, and I floated up onto a roof. I ran along the roofs and leap/floated over the gaps. At one point I had to jump really hard to get onto a 4-storey building, but when I did, I almost felt like I wasn't going to stop flying upwards (like in old dreams from years ago) and continue into space. But just before the panic broke in, I simply dropped back down and onto the roof. *PHEW*

I felt a bit of adrenaline, which can wake you up, but it didn't. I was standing at the beginning of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, although it was much smaller. I started thinking about what I was going to do. I thought about the advanced Task of the Month, the one about Whoville, but I thought "Meh, screw it!" and decided I was going to dream-visit the people on my list who have asked me to make them lucid through a Shared Dream. I was about to spin...

And my parents yelled too loudly, I woke up and actually spun in my bed, it was so fast.

12/26/10 Healing Dreams
Plans: I didn't really have any major plans when I fell asleep last night, Christmas was over, and I'd spent some time playing games on my new Xbox 360 Kinect, which actually does involve some exercise… and my body is sooooo not used to any kind of exercise that I went and tired myself after about an hour and a half of active gameplay… is that pathetic or what? So my main thought was to get some sleep, which I accomplished, but not much in the way of dream recall... a couple of fragments.

Holding My Last Breath
I am in a hospital, I am walking down the halls even though I am not sure why I am in the hospital. It's like I have forgotten so much, am I there to visit someone? Am I there as a patient? Damn, I wish I could remember something, I am wondering what is wrong with me when the idea I might be dreaming occurs to me… and I do a RC by pinching my nose. When I am still able to breathe, I realize that I am dreaming.

I look around the hospital hallway, trying to figure out where I am and what I should be doing there. I remember that I didn't have any specific goals for the night, so I am thinking that I must be there for some kind of purpose, since that is usually the case when I appear somewhere randomly. There are doctors everywhere, even what appear to be a couple of patients walking in the halls, but no clue as to why I am there. I look into one of the rooms and I see someone in there with severe burns, he doesn't look good at all. I glance around, then I go into the room and focus on a healing spell for him, the result is his burns quickly heal over. The man looks at me and says it's a miracle and I must be an angel of some kind, sent down to mend his wounds. His ranting and thanking me gets more attention than I want, and soon there are several doctors and nurses in there. One of the doctors seems very happy to see me, he asks if I have come to heal the Longbottoms some more, because there has been no further improvement since I had been there last time, so if it was supposed to continue on its own, something went wrong. I now know where I am, at least… I am obviously at St. Mungo's hospital in a Harry Potter world. And maybe I was there to help with healing Neville's parents, so I follow the doctor from the room and onto an elevator that goes to another location and then opens. The doctor leads me quickly down the hall to a room numbered 657.

Inside I see that Frank and Alice Longbottom are sitting in a pair of chairs right next to each other, though each one of them seems completely oblivious to the presence of the other one. They are both staring off into some version of infinity that only they can see. So I focus on using the song My Last Breath by Evanescence to heal the two of them, and it seems to be having an effect… it looks like they are actually focused on me instead of on some parallel world that might exist only in their minds… but then as soon as the song is over, they both slip away again. It seems like my attempt was an epic failure, though the doctor says that was a very good sign, as they have had absolutely no response to any external stimuli except for my song and Neville's visits… I wonder if maybe Neville could help with the healing, since they are already showing some reaction when Neville visits, the song would give them some more stimulation… and I have the idea that once they get free of the catatonic state, there is very little chance of sliding back into it. The hard part would be getting them to that state. So I tell the doctors that I will come back to do more later, and they thank me for trying again, and then I leave the room. I am walking down the hallway, fortunately there is no one around me when I wake.

Dear Diary
Or at least I think I wake up… I roll over in bed and give off a couple yawns, I am remembering a Harry Potter dream, I really should sit up and take a few notes. Or just grab my iPod touch and take a couple notes… or grab the notebook by my bed and jot a few notes. I know I need to take notes or I might end up forgetting the dream, but it is still a difficult task to talk myself into doing it when I just want to fall back to sleep. So I grab my iPod and type in a few notes to remind me of the trip to St. Mungo's to do more healing on Neville's parents. Then I hit save, and set it back on my waterbed bookcase before rolling over and falling back asleep.

Note: I didn't realize the second part of this dream was actually a dream and not me really waking up and journaling until I checked my iPod and found there were not any notes files saved… >.<

I've been both sick as a dog, and out of town. Dreams have been so crazy. At one point, I was nightmaring lucidly about the Saw movies, which I don't even watch (Saw 1-3, then gave up.), then woke into a higher layer non-lucid to find myself having sex with Jigsaw. Ew? Think this had something to do with seeing my rather useless brother-in-law. I think he fits the vic profile nicely.

Yes, you can nightmare in a lucid. It's like watching a scary movie of yourself: you're a spectator, not a participant. Yeesh.

There were a few others, but nothing as vivid as last night. That one broke into my reality for a short time. I was totally lucid in a dream of my hometown (Dream-world geography again!), and I figured that I'd have some fun in an antique/thrift shop by playing dress-up. I'm never as mature in dreams as I am in reality, but I'm much more fun. Unfortunately, there were no dressing rooms, and the outfits I had started to shrink as soon as I started walking around looking for one, so I figured that since I'm dreaming, it was alright for me to start changing there in the store in front of everyone. I got a couple of items on, then the proprietress appeared and told me that it was inappropriate to be changing clothes in the store and that Id have to leave.

I tried to reason with her that this was all a dream, so it didn't matter because she and everyone else were imaginary, but several of the other shoppers physically threw me out. Then a Gothic chick with short, fire-engine red hair and a low growly voice (I swear she was one of my old Harry Potter fanfic characters!) showed up and told me that the proprietress was very powerful and her friends were coming to beat me up for embarrassing her like that.

We ran all over my hometown trying to get away. I could have flown, and I knew it, but I didn't want to leave the girl who helped me. I was wondering how unreal they were since I couldn't control them, and was concerned for her well-being. Suddenly I was aware (watching, as if in a film again) that the proprietress was a sorceress, and to avenge herself on me she made my friend aware that she was a dream, and not "real."

She cursed us both that we would know reality. This didn't bother me, the real person, but suddenly the redhead started screaming and chanting that she wanted to know, see, hear, and live reality. She attacked me, trying to claw her way through me into the real world. When she hit me I found myself awake in my mother-in-law's spare room, yet in sleep paralysis. The dream redhead appeared as a lump in the blankets, completely non-humanoid yet I recognized her, and attacked again by biting onto my left breast and clinging on. I couldn't move to fight, being paralyzed, but I managed to get out the thought "HELP ME" aimed at my husband. He was sleeping next to me. Then the blanket-chomper vanished, only a blanket over my breast, and we were both awake. He is completely unaware of what happened, so I dunno if he helped or if I jerked and startled him awake.

But that freaked me out.

I had a lucid dream last night! =D
(halfheartedly using the MILD method)

Okay, so it's not my first lucid dream; but it was my first lucid dream while (semi) trying to have one (intentionally). It was really kinda cool because as soon as I was in the dream I was like 'Woah, I'm dreaming', and then proceeded to perform a few reality checks just to confirm my dreaming state. At first I looked at my hands, the check failed; Then I tried sticking a finger through my hand and it only was really elastic, so the check failed; finally I plugged my nose and tried breathing through it, and could still breathe; the check succee ded: and I was dreaming! I could only control the dream to some extent: succeeding in making two little girls appear when I covered my eyes and found them there, but not in making people disappear, or making this obscure object I was imagining appear. I'm content with the success of having this dream at the least, but at the most I need to practice control and stabilization of dreams.
