lucid

I incubated a lucid dream! Yay! It's the only dream I remember (pshh lucid dreams are the only dreams worth remembering ) so here goes:

I had just entered a building after having some sort of meeting over a dinner with someone who I didn't like. Suddenly I'm watching this video on a TV on the wall of a war in a desert area. I become immersed in the video, and it becomes the dream. As soon as I noticed I was in a desert I became lucid. I shouted, "I DID IT!!!" I try hard not to get overly excited. I was in an area that was barren except for a few shacks. I was in a desert, and it seemed depressing. I jumped into the air and flew away (flying seemed really easy this time after having practiced in previous lucid dreams). I came to a very small concrete building. I went inside for a few seconds, but nothing interested me so I went back outside. The area had changed, and instead of it being a complete desert, it was like a dry part of Texas or something. There was a hill in front of me that was covered in wildflowers. It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life. I walk up to the flowers and try to concentrate on them in an attempt to add more detail. It worked, but unlike when I tried this in another lucid, it didn't make it seem any more detailed than real life. The most appealing flower was this white rose type of flower, that the whole plant was just covered in white. It was beautiful. My mom loves flowers, so I reached into my pocket and pulled out a camera. I took a snapshot of it wanting to show her in real life. Then a lucid dreamer friend's voice comes into my head and says "That's a stupid idea." I knew it was stupid to take the picture, but I figured it didn't really matter. So I walked back to the building while repeating "I am dreaming" to make sure I stay lucid. The inside of the building is eerily large, and feels like a security center. The walls are covered in a strange plastic, and I get the urge to walk on it. So I walk up to the wall and place one foot on it. I close my eyes while imagining the transition of my view to change, while telling myself that this is a normal thing that I do a lot. I pull my other leg off the ground and place it on the wall. It worked! It was a ton of fun to walk on the walls, seeing the puzzled faces of dream characters. I walked on the ceiling shouting at some dream characters, and they were pretty frightened. When walking on the walls/ceiling, it didn't feel like I was sideways or upside down. Rather I was on the ground, and the dream characters were sideways/upside-down. I knew that there was fighting going on outside, and a mother and daughter ran up to me screaming for help. I didn't care to help them, but I brought them along since I wanted to see their reactions to things. I found some glass windows, and put the tips of my fingers against it. While slightly pushing against it, I closed my eyes and imagined it shatter in slow motion. I made a little sound effect "tshhh" while pulling away quickly and the window shattered. Successfully in slow motion. It made this amazing noise when it shattered, and seemed to linger in the air while it was slowly falling apart like a high pitched humming. The mother and daughter were amazed at the glass slowly moving, and the put their hands in the middle of the slow explosion and touched the shards of glass that were floating. It was by far one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my life, and I felt very accomplished that I had such good control. Then I heard my mom and dad's voices, and I thought it was them speaking in the real world. I started thinking about my body, which made the dream start to fade. At this point, I felt very satisfied and was ready to let go of the dream, but I didn't give up. I rubbed my hands together, which added a lot of clarity, but as soon as I stopped I started losing clarity again. So I tried to dream spin. While spinning I thought, "Hey this would be a good time to try to teleport!" So I thought of the first place I could think of: London. Shortly afterwards, I woke up.

The dream lasted about 30 minutes long, so it was quite lengthy which makes me confident that I'll have great lucids in the future! The dream ended around 5:20am, after 7 hours of sleep.

I remember I am riding my bike somewhere and I see a friend of mine walking. For whatever reason, I prefer that he not see me, so I ride past and don't believe he notices me.

Another dream, I am at a party of some sort and I am giving food to a little kitty. Then I decide it woulod be cool if there were an apocalypse, and in thinking that cause one. Then I am still at the party, which is going on despite the outside world, and I am very catlike now. I go outside away from the commotion and hide behind Jack's car. Then he comes out and tells me not to mess up his spoiler. After, another friend comes out with a bag full of febreeze and other things and gets in the car with Jack, and they drive off to accomplish something.

Hello again.

Well, as the title says, I found in my dreams a very special person I wish meet for real. These dreams are half lucid/half non-lucid..

I'm in a building. I don't remember exactly what I was doing there, but it was something in relation to university. I meet a girl, she looks familiar. I ask her for some advice and she's very helpful. Soon a conservation is build up. While talking to her I was flirting a bit by making some funny remarks which made her laugh, speaking in avery elaborated language. AND in addition, she likes that. I feel that she's attracted by me, she often smiles and gives me very special looks (I don't know how to describe them) which were saying that she finds me nice (by the way eyes are never lying).
I also remember very well her face: normally, the faces in my dreams are blurry or not distinguishable, sometimes they aren't even there). I also know that I've already seen her somewhere, but I don't know where.
Well our conversation was very long and quite intensive. But after sometime I unfortunately had to leave But I promised her, that we will meet again.

In the meantime I had these Fragments.

Than I had a second dream: I'm in a restaurant or in a bar. In front of me sits exactly the same girl as previously. She is constantly smiling. She looked really beautiful with her brown long hair. I was really amazed by that: I've never seen so beautiful brown eyes, which were so glittering and so friendly... I realized that I love her and she's maybe interested in me. I want to tell her my feelings, but I don't know how to do it in an appropriate way. I continue my conversation, but than took one of her hands. I want to see how she reacts. She is pleased and also gives me the other hand. We both stand up and I wanted to confess my feelings. But I didn't know how... BUT this wasn't a problem, because she already knew what I'm saying to her. She says to me that she shares the same feelings. We kiss. I realize that her kiss is odd, that I'm not having some intensive feelings or so. I REALIZE THAT THIS IS A DREAM. I'm so happy that I realized it. But my feelings are to intense....

I woke up . I just was: "NOOOOOOOO!" Why do I awake in these situations??? I did a RC. I'm no longer dreaming. I thought a long time about these dreams. I tried to auto-suggest to have the same dream or a related one. I fall asleep while thinking of her.

I enter in a classroom. It's English class but I don't have any books or so. In addition I have in reality no english-courses. I looked for someone. and SHE was there, sitting alone. She was really happy to see me again. Me too. I sit down next to her. She gives me her hand to show me that she still loves me. I give her a kiss. I wanted to say something but a teacher was suddenly there. She (the teacher) was very angry about something. The class is boring so I look out the window. The window and the wall disappears and I see a beach. The sky is red. Someone, who also looked outsides started to say out loud: "O no do you see this?" everyone looks now. We see that a group of hundred whales are swimming towards the beach. Some of them already stranded. The teacher become even more angry that no-one pays attention. But nobody cares. We all go outsides to help the whales.
Outsides it is very chilly; a storm is coming up. I try too help a stranded whale: it was a miniature whale, just as big as pig or so. It starts dying in my hands. I'm really sad and run towards the water. But it's too late: it's already dead.
Suddenly something odd happens: the whale transforms in a T-Shirt and it flies away. I soon realized somehow that it was again a dream. A little girl comes towards me and says to me that I had to go back at school to write my English-essay. I ignored her and walked a bit. I didn't pay attention to my surroundings, I probably missed something. But I just wanted to meet my soul-mate again. Suddenly I'm in front of her. She's upset because of the dying whales. she knows that one of them died in my hands. She says to me that I don't have to blame my-self, that's not my fault that it died. She gives me hug, I pay attention in which way she gives me a hug (a friendly on or a loving I don't know why I pay attention on it: it's a dream and I get hugged as I wish it too. I loose lucidity. She wants to leave to go to her house on the beach. I accept.

My alarm clock wakes me up.
And I'm still amazed

Lucidity scale: 3/5

Started With a False Awakining, Did a RC and found out i was dreaming,

So i did a few stabalizing techs and found my self quite stable.
And disliked the pitch black that was in the room and closed my eyes saying my self a diffrent location.
I open to find its still black. But now im in a hotel Room in Drango.
I did this again hoping for light and what do you know,
A lit room.

So now me being amazed.
I take a few deep breaths and begin to "PLAY"
i start with my mirror thats in the bathroom of the hotel.
I look in it to see my self. PERFECTLY NORMAL!
so i did another rc.
Breathing though a Stoped nose
and there we are! STILL DREAMING!
so i tryed to morph my self.
Put my hand over my Eye.
And Had a image in mind.
then poof.
I look like a 60 year old italin bastard Selvester Stalone.
i was so happy!
kinda forgot what happens here.
but then i find my self in the kitchen, i go to the Frige and get a Soda.
And it tasted like Air and Water.
lol?


Any way, To conclude.


LUCID DREAMING IS F***ING AWESOME

Strange Atmosphere
Clarity: 8/10
Importance: 6/10
Sleep: Nap
Sleep Position: Unknown

I'm in a bar with my brother, but sitting alone and not drinking. Sue, who's working the bar, buys me a drink, and I wonder if she's hitting on me. I go outside, walk for a bit, then want to return to the bar. I run down a grassy hill towards it. Along the way I pass another bar and grab the corner of it, dragging the whole bar towards the one at the bottom of the hill. The bar I'm pulling begins to slide and it's corner collides with the corner of the other bar. Everyone on the patio spills their drinks from the impact, and I try haft heartedly to tell them about me dragging the other bar here.

I hit it off with this one girl, and we're having a good time when this bitch comes up and tries to ruin it. She says something about the girl I'm with being friends with my older sister from their college days (don't have a sister), and she's breaking some rule or trust being with me. We ignore her.

The girl I'm with comments on the strange atmosphere, and I notice it too. "It's almost like something is about to happen" I say. That something is a small army of sentient lawnmowers that cruise around outside. The lawnmowers encounter a group of zombies, and the lawnmowers and zombies pair off and begin to dance.

I'm now walking down the city street, and that strange vibe is still in the air. I cut through a path in the bushes and encounter a strange creature, so I back off to the street again. There I a evil looking 40 foot giant with elvish features, and retreat back to the bushes to hide from it. That first creature is gone, and I cut through some yards and back to the street away from the giant. I reason that these strange creatures are from a movie poster I saw, and I'm somehow playing out the story.

As I continue my walk down the street, I see a large transport truck collide with a tanker carrying gasoline, one of three gas tankers in a row. The impact ruptures the tank, and gas begins to gush everywhere. I see some flames, and fearing the coming explosion, run the hell out of there. I hear the explosion behind me and a sewer lid in front of me explodes upwards with a blast coming out of the sewer.

I continue walking down the street at night and notice my shoes are like wooden clogs, only made of large hollowed out carrots. Shortly after, that peculiar atmosphere tips me off that I'm dreaming!

Lacking clear lucid goals, I just force myself to levitate and take off on the first attempt. I rise higher and higher, starting to move forward slowly until I lose my power of flight and crash to the ground. My bare feet slap the pavement painfully on impact. I think of summoning some shoes, or finding a place to get some, then think that's a dumb idea. I don't really need shoes, and the pain I felt can be avoided by not thinking about my bare feet.

To prove that point, I fix my attention on a car driving down the street towards me. I run towards the car, jump into the air, and drop kick the windshield, putting a large hole in it. I felt nothing on my bare feet this time. To further test this out, I kick at the jagged edges of the windshield with my bare feet, making the hole bigger. Maintaining the proper focus, I still feel nothing.

Another car is driving down the road towards me, and I charge towards it and slam into the front with my shoulder. The car stops dead, the back end lifting up then crashing back down. Having sufficiently flexed my lucid muscle, I take to the skies again and fly around.

I fly through a window into someone's apartment, expecting them to freak on me, but nobody is home. I walk through the apartment into the hall and my lucidity ends. I now think this is the building I live in, and go to my apartment. There is some dream unstability with the layout, rooms changing and not connecting properly.

I go to my bedroom, and it's really tiny, just room for the bed. On the floor is a machettee with the ends of peperonis stuck to the blade. I think it's gross I left meat on the floor and begin cleaning it up. Then I clean my bed and large amounts of dust come off the blankets.

[SIZE=2]Looking out of the window, the night sky is breathtaking. Stars are everywhere; thousands of constellations slowly twirling, expanding, and shrinking. There are two moons, one on the left, and the other on the right. Slowly a sun emerges from nowhere and keeps on rising. It is dark red, with a cool, soft glow. The glow illuminates only a very small portion of the sky around the edge, so it appears almost embedded in the darkness. Vincent stands next to me and I point out the oddity to him, yet I have not become lucid. What a bummer, as this must be the 100th time I’ve seen this kind of thing in my dreams. Next time I just have to remember to do realty check when I see sky like this.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]…[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2][COLOR=navy]I suddenly become aware that I am dreaming. I perform the breathing RC technique and confirm I’m indeed dreaming. Oddly, the dream contains no visuals, so I basically lie there in limbo, surrounded by total darkness and void. I squeeze my hands; the sensation seems to make the dream become richer. Then I squeeze too hard I wake up.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]…[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]I need to go somewhere and I find Bob’s BMW 760 parked outside. I jump in and drive away. I never quite liked the car because I always thought it felt plastic and the interior is too clustered. Now in this dream it becomes so much worse it feels totally claustrophobic. And the car seems to have a mind of its own and impossible to steer. There is someone on the passenger side but I cannot remember who that is. I temporarily switch to third person view and see from above as the car crashes into a black car parked roadside. The black car rolls into a large pit on the ground. [COLOR=navy]I become very nervous about the damage and suddenly I remember to perform an RC. The usual breathing check works and I become lucid.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Resisting the urge to fly I decide I should observe more instead of immediately playing God. I’m still in the car, but it now resembles more of a stretched limousine than a BMW. I pay special attention to some of the details, and am amazed by how real the wood work looks. The passenger turns out to be a total stranger, a male in his late 30s, square face and dark complexion, not the type I typically want to associate with. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]“Do you know you are in my dream?” I ask. I cannot remember what his reply is, but I remember it being something completely makes no sense, and I feel slightly disappointed at the lack of intelligence of my DCs. Yet I myself must be even more idiotic at this lower level of lucidity, so I proceed to ask him whether he knows the TRUTH. All I get is blank stares. I give up and get out of the car.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]There is a forest nearby, and nothing unusual and spectacular, so I secretly try to make a portal appear so I can teleport to somewhere more exciting. Since I want to do this discreetly I cannot put forth to much effort, so I fail to make anything happen. I decide to go with the flow and follow my companion who is by now a somewhat evil looking elf. He leads me through the woods, and stops in front of a wooden cabin. I have the feeling he is planning something evil, but I am not afraid. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]I enter the room and there is a large machine on the floor which looks like a torture/execution device. Tools such as knives, axes, and chainsaws lay scattered everywhere. The elf then signals me to get on the machine so he can cut me into pieces. Seeing that I’m not cooperating, he approaches me with a rope in his hands. Even knowing I’m in a dream and I cannot be hurt, I don’t find the idea entertaining, so I throw him onto the device with my telekinesis power. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]I press him against the bench and grabbed a knife. He appears scared but I somehow know he is really not. I then proceed to cut him, creating a wound that’s about one inch deep and three or four inches wide. He screams but again I know he is not really in much pain. The skin is blue, thick, and feels like rubber. He does not bleed. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Sensing that he is not really scared, I suddenly become angry. I see a large chainsaw on the floor and want to use that to threaten him. What a mistake! I forget that telekinesis power has never been entirely under my control in any of my LDs. With a slight gesture of my other hand, the chainsaw bounces up and fly quickly across the room, with the blade facing my hand. It is much too quick and I get scared. I pull my hand back so hard I wake up instantly.[/SIZE]

First lucid! WOW (Non-lucid)
13/09/10
NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

It was nearly a month ago, but i should write it some time so why not right now? I 'll write it exactly as i wrote it on paper, after waking up.
Here it goes:

~~~
I just had my first lucid dream! It was awesome!
I flew, drove a mustang-go-kart, i looked at my hands and they were messed up, i saw S., A., and some random guys from school.
I was already watching a really long dream (never wrote that down). At some point i was sitting down in a pretty destroyed and messed up place. There were some electricity fences in the ground. Then i saw 5 little rainbows near my hands and that seemed weird. I did a reality check. I pinched my nose and tried to breath. And i could! I stood up, still holding my nose and feeling my consiousness coming to life. There was a guy there. He saw my (obviously) freaked out face and said: "what's wrong?". I was really hapy at that time so i just ignored him and turned away. I calmed down. There was a really strange feeling in the whole thing, it didn't bother me though. I walked a little and stopped. First thing that came to mind was "try to fly". I remembered something i read in the forum. "A simple way to try and fly is to lift your legs and float". So i looked at my legs and just lifted them up. What happened is that i hit the ground on my knees. LOL fail. Luckily there was no pain. I stood up and looked at my hands. They SUCKED! Disformed, distorted and generally messed up. I found that very funny. When i saw them i just said "WOW" and started laughing! At that point the dream started fading.
*
I closed my eyes and started spinning and thinking that i want to go to a big city. And there i was! I jumped trying to fly. I stretched my arms in a superman-like way and after a while i finally made it. The feeling was not as i expected, but i hope i 'll get better. As i was flying the dream started fading again.
*
I started spinning again. This time i end up inside a building. It was like a big hotel, or mall or something... There are lots of people for the first time. I decide to look for some friend. I look for D. Didn't show up anywhere. I saw a girl with red hair, who got my attention for some reason. I believed that i would talk to her and she would reveal me that she is my dream guide. I walked towards her. I touched her back of the neck. She turned around and told me "Do we know each other?". I asnwered "Not yet" in english. (EPIC ROFL. my main language is greek and she spoke greek... So it was really like "i m so cool and confident" in a bad way, which i am not in real life. :p). So as i hold her neck someone friendly bumped me on my back. It was my friend A. We shook hands and i noticed he had square-shaped eyes and small mouth and something was wrong with his face in general. :p Anyway the girl left and i don't remember anything else about A. As i was leaving i saw a girl that looked like D. I call her name multiple times and at some point she turns around and looks at me and i say "uhm, sorry i was wrong". Then i notice she has HUGE eyebrows and i say "pffhahahaha not even close". I laughed really hard, she laughed too and i left. (i am so mean in my dreams... xD). That room looked like a restaurant with people waiting to grab their food and pay. There was a double door, which seemed to be an exit. I open it and everything becomes really bright to total white and the dream is fading AGAIN.
*
Same spinning thing. I thought i 'd like to end up on the Eiffel Tower, to try and fly again. :p I ended up in a village, in the middle of a forest and i could see a big tower pretty far away and it didn't even look like the Eiffel Tower. By the way my right eye remained closed. I couldn't open it. I tried to force my eye open with my fingers, but i couldn't see well and i felt something like a drop coming from my eye. I close my eyes and try to sense my face with my hands.
*
I open my eyes and find myself on a road in the forest with both eyes opened. There are many parked cars, but no traffic, no people. I think about spawning some cars. I thought it would be nice if i saw a ferrari between some parked cars. So i turned my back on some cars, and i focused to believe that there will indeed be a ferrari there when i turn around. And there it was! I walked that way, but as i went closer it didn't look like a ferrari. Like all the cars changed to super-futuristic versions... I didn't like it a lot, so i think really fast "wouldn't it be great if there was a mustang shelby right behind me?". I turn around and i see a mustang shelby coming and stopping in front of me. At that point i kinda freaked out. I looked around like thinking "are you kidding me? is this a joke?" When i looked at the car again it was changed to something like a mustang-shelby-kart... I can't explain or describe it very well. "uhh why not?" I sit in it and hit the accelerator. The gearbox was automatic. I didn't like it. I look for a switch to change it. Next to the steering wheel i see a really small switch with a symbol like "H" on it only with three vertical lines (like the one on the manual shifters (i use a translator for all this car parts. sorry if they're wrong)). That switch did the job. The gear box was manual now. The pedals were strange in shape. Pretty draft quality and inconvenient. Fail. I drove it for a little but i got bored. I wanted to fly again (lol). I tried 2-3 time, especially when i saw wolves coming in the plane. But i couldn't get high. Anyway. I look at a wolf and suddenly small rockets or maybe big bullets, start falling around him. I felt it was people from the village shooting to kill it. The wolf got really scared and while trying to run away he run towards me. I was worried that i would take fire because of the wolf coming near me. So i managed to avoid it the first time. Then it comes back. I jump to my left.
*
The dream fades and i start spinning again, but i stop. I was really excited and wanted to wake up and write all these things down. Everything gets black. I can see, feel, sense nothing. I can only hear a song which i don't know in my waking life. It lasted 2-3 seconds. The song faded out. I started feeling the bed and listening to noises outside my room. I get up and write ALL THESE.
I just did a reality check. I am awake! :p
YEAH!
~~~

That was it. It really amazed me that i could do all this stuff. I always thought my first lucid would last a few seconds and i would wake up from my excitement. But as you can see it was not like this at all. That whole thing gave me a feeling it was about 20-30 minutes long... Instead my second lucid, lasted 10 seconds and i didn't manage to hold it. :p
Have a nice day. Sorry for that enormous post.

This lucid dream was finally more controllable than before, and a tad bit vivid.

It started out where I think I was in my room at my dad's house. I don't know if I was sitting on my bed or not; it was blurry. I did the nose RC a couple times, and pinched myself. And I was lucid.

I'm not sure how I got there, but I was in the kitchen at my mom's house. It was weird, because some of it was the kitchen but then the scenery faded out into some sort of ruins.

Anyways, I was standing close to the island (counter in the middle with 2 stools) and I saw my friend and another girl run by. I can't recall what happened next, but I remember laying on the floor.

Then I remember that I wanted to see my friend Mike in the dream. I started spinning, hoping that the environment would change. It didn't much. I walked over to my mom and told her that I was lucid and to RC. She said she would in a minute. (lol?)

I'm not sure if i was still lucid, but I remember seeing a "commercial" about alarms (much like the CAN-WILD alarm) that were being sold for 28$ each ring. (talk about expensive) I also remember a commercial about these buttons that you would press in your sleep and it would transform you into something n your dream. Very strange.
No more recall, I think I woke up.

Sassy
I remember being in my math teacher's room. There were about 10 of my classmates there. I remember talking about classmate with my friend, and we were laughing.

I noticed I had a can of Aussie hairspray and sprayed it. (I guess I thought it was air freshener?)
Then Sam got a text from my mom. I was in the front of the room when she told me, "Momma said that she's at a 5 hour restaurant." (what is a 5 hour restaurant?)
Then Mike said something but I can't remember.
I said, "Yeah, she's bringing us food." (in a smart alecy tone) While rotating my head (lol).
Then I heard someone in the back go "oooooh"
After this I remember saying, "Then again, she's probably not bringing us any."

Then I remember going back to the back of the room and spraying that hairspray again. I yelled, "Mmm! Smells like sweet tarts!" (lol)
That's all I remember

Date: 04.10.2010
Vividness: High
Induction: WILD (WBTB)

Real/Comment - Non Lucid - Lucid

This is my second successful WILD. The problems I had last time persist, I get into SP very easily, but I have a very hard time moving on from there.
I zoned in and out a lot. I often felt like I was about to enter a dream, there was a scene although it was not quite clear,
but I had basic knowledge what it consisted of and which DC’s would be there. This usually only lasted for a few seconds at most though.
At one point my whole body started to tickle stronger and stronger by the second.

Suddenly, my dream body was shot away at high speed, like a ball from a cannon.
I couldn't see anything, but I could feel that I was falling “back to earth”. Although I had no vision, I knew when to expect the impact,
and I knew it wouldn't hurt. I was hoping very hard that I was finally entering my dream and that my vision would be restored, and so it was.

After a rough landing, I found myself in the garden of an old neighbor of mine. (I used to live in that street over 10 years ago)
The landing didn’t hurt whatsoever. Since there was no doubt in my mind that I was dreaming I skipped the reality checks (I completely forgot they exist).
I tried some stabilization techniques next. First I rubbed my hands together. The sensation was strong, but slightly different from real life.
I started to move out of the garden, whilst touching everything I could find. I was very impressed how strong the sensation of touching things was.
At one point I accidentally touched a bee that was sitting on a flower. It buzzed, but did not seem to care.

I decided to go with the dream this time, and just see where it would lead me. Since I found myself in front of the house,
I proceeded to the door and wanted to ring the bell, but some old guy already opened the door.

At first he had no idea who I was, but that didn’t prevent him from handing me a cup of champagne.
I didn’t know him either at first, but suddenly he seemed to hate me. My presence annoyed him so much that he just walked away.
At this point… for some reason, I realized I knew him for a long time, and I knew we weren’t getting along.
I drank the champagne, it tasted exactly like its real world counterpart; it was a good French one too.
Since he left the door open, I entered the house and found a young girl just standing there.

She was not the one I was looking for though; I was looking for her older sister: my pregnant girlfriend.
The whole sensation was absolutely amazing. She was sitting on a couch, possibly looking at TV.
She was immensely happy to see me, and she was very cute. Her belly clearly showed that she was pregnant, although it wasn’t very big yet.
The love I felt for the women and my future child at that moment was so strong and so impressive.
I couldn't imagine living without this girl or my soon to be born child.
We gave each other a long hug and decided to go for a walk outside. Unfortunately, and very suddenly...

I felt a "click" in my body, like flicking a light switch, something had changed...
I was back in my real body, in SP, and I could no longer move my dream body. The dream started to fade away.
I wanted to try spinning to prolong the dream, but I couldn’t since I was stuck in my real body, and I couldn’t move due to SP.

I decided to end the SP and take notes of the dream as long as I was still able to remember it clearly.
It is only then I realized how impressive that dream really was.
Right now, having a child would be absolutely horrible for me.
I don’t really get along with young children and I have no interest whatsoever in having a child right now.

However, in the dream, I was clearly able to experience what it would feel like if I wanted to have a child and possibly get married, and I enjoyed it a lot.
This is the first time I knowingly had "false memories", I couldn't imagine that they would be so strong.
I was quite sad that the dream had ended early, but thought that I’d be looking forward to experience other sensations and emotions that I am currently unable to have in real life.

Huzzah! This puts me almost to my goal for this month! I even managed to do a successful stabilize and dream spin. (Though the stabilize didn't last long.)

Anywho, this makes my first confirmed successful MILD. Like my first LD, I ended up doing 2 RCs. After my first RC, I stabilized my excitement by looking at my left hand with great interest for a bit, this cleared things up and kept me from waking up... However, I somehow got the idea that a plane was going to crash into the room.

It did and everything froze and went dark, so I spun (Repeating 'You're dreaming' to not lose lucidity) and when I stopped there was an out of focus square white light. I wen towards it and it put me in a new dream. I RCed again and woke up.

Huge success! Truncated heavily, but I'm still on a character limit.

The dream started in a boiler room. I was not lucid at this point. Strangely enough, I saw Freddy Krueger. I remember not fearing him at all. I felt as if he was just there, as if I was "seeing gravity." I saw him run up to me, unopposed I let him have a go at my throat. I felt a sudden surge of fear at that moment, but felt nothing. This is when I awoke, but it was not my room. At this point I remembered reading of false awakening and I realized I was not in reality.. At that point I heard a scraping at my door. When I looked up my arm was extended with Freddy's glove on it. I then remember jumping from the second story of the home, only to discover the ground was endless. I stuck out my hand as to catch myself. In doing so I clutched a ledge that I had not seen before. Above that ledge was a series of manors. I ran straight for the manor only to find they were merely an image. As I remained running through the mansions, I came to the final home. My grandfather's home from my childhood. We spent nearly a year their when I was a very young child. I was always fearful of this place, I believed there was something wrong, and this came to life in my dream. I saw images of all my dead relatives, and I decided I'd like to see my late father. When confronted with him, walking into the room, with not a clear view of his face, I awoke.

Took a B-Complex supplement about 2 hours before sleep and also sipped some natural apple juice throughout the night.

Colored String Competition
0200: C. In a competition. Each player has a small plastic toy bow (as in bow-and-arrow) with a colored piece of string. There are about 10 people including me. Some are vaguely familiar. There is a host, like it's a game show. The goal is to guess the color of other's strings. I think mine is plain white. The host guides us through a few rounds. Then one round is tricky. The choice is between two people who have pink and red. We are supposed to guess which is which. Only me and one other girl get it right. Actually, I just copy her guess. I realize she is Lexi, a childhood friend.

WBTB+MILD, short

Bunker, Dream Control without Lucidity
0452: B. Ok, this dream was really vivid. I could have sworn it was lucid, but on waking up and recalling I realized I never actually had the critical lucid moment. I'm on a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II map. I think it's called Quarry. But I'm not fighting. I look for a bunker under the hills and find one. It has a low ceiling, a locking door, and a narrow pillbox window looking out at the center of the map. I'm glad that the door has a lock for some reason. I look at the low ceiling. This is the point where I appreciate how vivid the dream is and I feel that pre-lucid tingle but never go fully lucid. The ceiling is bare rock with a tangle of metal braces, electrical wires, and light bulbs. There are also some spider webs and I carefully look for spiders but find none. The whole room is only about 10 feet by 10 feet. I think there is a bed and a few military-looking green crates stacked around.

Now Hugh and a girl are in the room with me. The girl is tall and skinny with a brown hair in a pony tail. Kinda tomboyish. She vaguely reminds me of the ex-girlfriend of an old friend from college. She's casually dressed in jeans and a tank top with some cleavage, which is distracting me. I show them the view through the window. It's bright day outside. You can see the part of the map where there's a big stack of cube-shaped cut stones. But in the dream, they are cardboard boxes instead of stones. I notice this is weird but not enough to become lucid. Then I try to impress both of them, mostly the girl, with some dream powers. I try to levitate an empty water bottle but fail. The girl is bored and wants to go somewhere else. I try to teleport us out but fail again. So we walk out the door, through a hallway and out into the open.

Hugh and the girl venture off. I'm looking around and see Justin, a childhood friend, walk up to me. His hair is buzzed really short, almost bald. He's wearing a light blue UCLA T-shirt. He says something about the UCLA football team. Then he asks if I'm bored and what to do something. He suggests we go watch a movie called "Cobalt Jungle." I say "Hell, yeah!" Here's where I start showing some dream control.

Justin jumps on a motorized dirt bike and I fly behind him. I'm parallel to the ground, just a 2-3 feet off the ground. We're traveling on a very rough dirt road with a steep hill bank on either side. The sky is now overcast and the ground is muddy with patches of green. Justin and I are weaving around telephone polls that are scattered on the road. I want to go faster so I concentrate and accelerate. We started at about 30 mph, now it feels like 80 mph. Justin hits a bump in the road and falls off his bike. But before he hits the ground, I reach with my left arm and use telekinesis to put him back on the bike and to keep the bike from crashing. Wake up and try to DEILD but no luck.

WBTB+MILD, long, read DV

The Blue Sweater
0638 B. Another very vivid dream. This time I become lucid for a while. I recall a fragment from the earliest part of the dream. I'm laying in bed and feel something warm at my feet. I lift the sheets and see my old cat Sam balled up. He wakes up and moves up the bed closer to me and lays down again next to my body for warmth. I think, aww, so cute.

False awakening. I roll over to write in my journal. It's early morning light outside. The window is at the head of the bed, which is the correct direction. Next to my journal, I see two pairs of glasses. One looks like mine, though this isn't where I usually place them when I sleep. The other pair looks similar in style but smaller. I think, hmm, who's are these? I get up and look around nervously. Is there someone else in my room? No. The room is fairly convincing as my real bedroom and very vivid. I examine the glasses more closely. They look like reading glasses that you would wear at the edge of your nose. They say "Granny" on the legs like a brand name.

As I'm looking at the glasses, I notice I'm wearing a very thick and woolly royal blue sweater. I think, Umm what? I don't own anything like this. I nose-plug check and I can breath. But I'm not convinced. The scene seems too vivid to be a dream. I do the nose-plug again and can breath again. Hmm. Ok, I guess I'm dreaming. But I'm still surprised. I do a finger-through-the-hand check to be sure. My finger doesn't go through but I look down and see my finger smushed like clay against the palm of my hand. Ok, I'm finally convinced.

What to do? I think of my plan. My plan that I set for tonight was: look at my hands, feel my body, notice my clothes, then take off my clothes and do something embarrassing while naked. I get up the taking off my clothes. I start pulling the sleeves of the blue sweater when I decide that I could be doing something interesting while disrobing.

I look at the window and realize it's wrong. It's a long and rectangular. It should be two tall narrow windows. Outside, I see a front lawn and other houses like a suburban neighborhood. That's also wrong; I live in the city with a parking structure across the street. This improves my lucidity but distracts me. Outside on the lawn, I see a giant TV screen. It's a billboard mounted just a few feet off the ground. There are a few adults throwing a football on the street. I intuitively know they are a news crew from the local TV station. I forget about my clothes and plan. I climb on the bed and try to phase through the window. I get halfway and feel stuck. Oh no!

At this point, my recall is broken and I lose lucidity. I might have woken up and DEILD back. Either way, the dream continues. One of the news crew is now in my room. He's an Asian man with a light blue dress shirt and slacks. He reminds me of a real TV reporter from one of the TV stations in Los Angeles. He apologizes for the billboard and says it won't be there more than three days. He goes on about how important advertising is for his station and who important the suburbs are. As we're talking, he starts standing, then sitting, then laying on the floor near my desk. Then he goes on about how television and entertainment are so important to our culture. He compares it to religion in the time of Jesus. I try to summarize his argument "So, the Internet is the new religion?" He says "Yes, exactly!"

WBTB, trouble falling asleep

Soccer
1107: D. Playing on a soccer team. Maybe a college team. Strict grid system with only one part of slack allowed. I am a controversial new member of the team. I make a play that leads to a goal.

I went to bed earlier last night, but it took me awhile to sleep. But I'll go to bed at the same time so I can adjust. I woke up at 6am, and remembered fragments. I was telling a friend the importance of being able to make split-second decisions, which he didn't quite believe. I also have fragments of woods and a shopping centre. After I woke up (accidently) I attempted a WILD but it failed. I still managed to get kinda lucid anyway Still not too clear though, and I still feel not like myself.

Experimentation

Awake Non-Lucid Semi-Lucid Lucid

I'm in the car at the field near my house. My mum's here but I can't be assed taking the dogs out...

When I step out of the car, I become lucid. I laugh and decide to play around. I always wanted one of those brightly coloured, teal skies like in action movies. (Just watch Transformers or something, you'll get me ) It's cloudy, so I put up my hand and brush them from the air. I increase the intensity of the colour, brighten the sky and add warmth to the rays of light. I add a few faint stars for good measure. I gaze in awe at the beauty of it. I make a dropping motion and back comes the clouds. (I just ate the most amazing muffin in the world. Thank you Mrs.Shearer!) Rain pours onto me. I smile, pinch and nose and breathe, amazed that I can.

I fly to a friends house. Her dad serves up some chocolate bread. I eat quite a lot of it because it tastes really good. When I go outside, her neighbors are out, and it's dark. They're having a BBQ. They've left food out on hottrays, and bark at me to keep my "filthy hands off of it"(?). So guess what I do? It's only garlic bread haha... Somehow this causes me to lose lucidity.

[Dream skip - Next day] I'm walking home with Aaron. I keep trying to talk to him but he just brushes me off. A first year runs up to me with a bag. She says it's an early Christmas present. On the bag it says; "From Gary xx". Aww, that's sweet. Kinda wierd though, we have banter and all, but we're not close friends. Aaron offers to give me a ride home. He almost runs over our headteacher. I look inside the bag and find some black clothes.

I was by myself but had stepsisters/step mom. But I did have my own bedroom. They were just about to go out and do something when they asked me to do something. I just said "Yes stepmother". and they left. I than wandered into the bathroom. and the lights were off and someone told me a scary story and half-way through the scary story I told the guy "stop". That's when I woke up.

I had this huge family (I don't know excalty how huge maybe 8?) now 2-4 of us ended up in something that was half the modern world and the other half wasn't. Somehow we met up with some humans. We were trying to find a sword but the problem is a nasty ruler was in the castle that supposedly had the sword. And somehow the 4 of us got split up and I heard that one of the 2 brothers got caught. A little while letter the nasty ruler saw me, so I had to find another outfit to wear. After getting another outfit. There was there festival going on outdoors. So I kind of had to crawl around all the tents. And someone who looked like my friend, Leslie, spotted me doing this and distracted the ruler. while, I sneak into the castle. I got to the brother who got caught who was a little brother (and somehow was able to unlock the doors without a key--magic?). But just after asking him if he was alright. I heard footsteps in the distance. So I quickly hid behind a curtain. The nasty ruler made the brother ride a metal version of those coin-operated horse rides you see in malls (minus the head). and when he (the brother) was on it, he fall into a hole where the horse's head should be, and the ruler left the room. I got out from behind the curtain and got the brother out of the hole. I carried him for a bit. but dropped him when I tried to disappear. The next thing I knew I ended up in the dungeon and my brother and several others were wearing white clothes and singing something called "No more". This is when I woke up.

I woke after five hours of sleep and went back to bed using this Lucid Dreaming Binaural MP3 I found. It was pretty incredible what results I found on the first successfull attempt. I fell into a WILD in a way that I had never done before. Usually I just feel my dream body in a scene and open my eyes and it's there. This time, I seriously believed I was still awake. I was a little annoyed that I was and I got up and went to my window and looked out. What added to the feeling was that everything looked just as it did in real life. Usually my dreams have a distinct haze that lets me know I am dreaming. But then I notice that the lights were not working properly. They would change level of brightness and sometimes not even turn on. This reality check kind of destabilized my dream for a moment, but I didn't want to wake, and the sheer will power kept me in the dream for the time being. I walked out in my living room and found the door to the garage. Since I was sure this was a dream I wanted to open the door to another scene. I said that I expect a winter scene outside and opened the door. Instead of finding snow though, and since deep down I knew what was on the other side of the door, I got mixed results. I found on the other side my garage during the winter. It was quite cold and I could see my breath, but no snow. St. Augustine never snows. The garage was very organized unlike it is now, and things were stacked in front of the car entrance. Instead of jumping, I decided to fly outside. So I lifted off of the ground and floated outside and felt the air around me. It seems the flight must have further destabilized the dream for I woke up. Upon waking I found that it wasn't destabilization, it was the intention of the Lucid Dreaming aid I was listening to to wake you up at the end of the ninety minute track. I was astonished to find that it worked so well.
