lucid

1. Mike Rowe (?) and I were on a crane in the middle of the ocean. It was 50 feet above the ocean (according to Mike). He was walking out on the long part of the crane for some reason, and he was saying that he hated water and heights. I took his place out on the crane, but shortly after, I fell off. I fell for a really long time, then I went on to another dream.

2. I realized that I was dreaming, remembering nothing prior to this realization. As soon as I realized this though, I "woke up" but I didn't actually wake up. It looked as if I did though, because I was in my house in my bed. This ended all lucidity.

3. After I "woke up" into this dream, I realized that it was 9:30 (according to the digital clock in my room). I was late for school. I just tried to go back to sleep because I figured it was too late to go to school anyway. Then my sister and one of her friends came into my room and explained why we were late for school. They said that they were trading folders, so they hadn't left for school yet.

First lucid dream (even if it wasn't anything) in a long time, so I'm happy for that.

I need a dream ...reader person.

My dreams have been weird lately, but this'n takes the cake.
This is my dream after my second time going to bed, so that means I was asleep first, then I woke up...
ate some Cheetos and watched television of some comedian on channel 71, and then went back to bed.)

I can't exactly remember my dream, but i remember like...

being awake for the first part of my dream.

I heard my mom get up, then I heard Loren screaming he wasn't short. (He's so grumpy in the mornings)
And so like, I thought of FMA (Full Metal Alchemist) and then my black nothingness morphed into FMA.
And then.. I lost awareness, and dreamt a weird dream of Edward Elric (Main character, blond hair) crying, throwing something that looked like some Japanese candy i bought the other day (It looked like a pack of gum, but it was in green wrappings with little white boxes that looked like serving sizes and black scribbles, couldn't read it) , and his red jacket at Roy Mustang, then let out a sad scream and dissapeared.
It was raining, and they were outside when this happened.

Then like an anime,
it flashed to inside, and Roy was sitting before a young looking dude with short brown hair. Kinda like Hughes but younger. There was a window in my dream view, and you could see the rain pounding harshly.
Roy thought of something, and then like in the animes, his pupils shrunk a bit.
He clenched his hands to fists as tears started to slide down his cheeks.
Roy Mustang doesn't cry.

Anyway, he said something in Japanese

And then i recall looking down at the scene and seeing English subtitles flash, then show up as "Ed was trying to tell me something."

I don't know Japanese..but it sounded..ya know..right.

And then a shrill ringing broke through, and Roy looked up, as if he was staring at me, and then i woke up to the sound of my doorbell being rung.

I swore I heard my mom scream "GET THE DANG DOOR, IT'S MAKING THE DOG BARK."

So i stumbled out of bed, looking at the clock. 7:08 AM

Almost time for the kiddies to get up for school.

I walked over to the door and answered it, and it was some random witness.

He left and I looked around, not hearing the shower anymore or sounds of my mom in the bathroom, and my brothers bedroom was empty.
The hell...

I stumbled into my bedroom to check the time.

It was 10:12 AM

And the witness only took 3-ish minutes, because he saw i had just gotten out of bed.

I recall there being a blank spot in that time, where nothing happened, and I just thunk.

Surely I didn't think for 3 hours.

And I swear the clock said 7:08.

The hell's going on? D<

Am I going insane?

Why are fictional characters being sad in my dreams?

Why did Ed through candy and his Jacket at Roy?

Why am I hearing Japanese in my dreams? Oo

WHY ARE THE CLOCKS BEING STUPID? D<

And why do I have lucid dreams?

Yay another DILD where I wake up instantly! Sigh... but NEW RECORD! 6 DREAMS in 1 NIGHT!

Dream 1: Something to do about my schoolbus.

Dream 2: I am Spongebob trying to infiltrate Squidwards house, which is a maze. I think of laying flat on the wall til he passes but he sees me. Damn it.

Dream 3: Sometimes im on the comp, sometimes im not. Depends First im not. I am in a car with Russell
Crowe. When our car ride is done, I decide I will collect celebrities. There was a name, but i forgot However, to get a celebrity, you need to go through a series of hallucinations, mostly scary ones (like SP). I pick Cameron Diaz on my comp, while Amelie is watching me. Im not in front of my comp anymore, but inside a purple tunnel. A big smiley face appears before being crushed by spikes in a bloody scene. I dont recall aquiring Cameron, and I pick another star. The screen starts with HI but then the screen comes back to the home page. I immediatly think something scary will pop up and the home page is part of the trick. This proves shocking enough for me to wonder if im dreaming. While im doing a successful RC grandma is walking towards the room. Now I think to myself: Ok, im dreaming. Great. And of course, I wake up. Again. Nice

Dream 4:
Part 1. Im a thief running away from cops. On rooftops. Video-game style. The kind of burglar like in a cartoon. You can also pick your character, all I remember is that the burglar holds a bag of money that slows you down. So at some point im cornered by two policemen. One has a gun but doesnt fire, the other a HUGE fan. He turns it on towards me and I fight against the wind to shoot it with a Charged Beam which I apparently have. I remember thinking: Come on thats not fair! I manage to keep running on other rooftops. Then I start again. All over again. Until I somehow hear about a secret escape through a prison that baffles police dudes. I try to find it but my mom calls me to go in the pool. So I quickly find my secret which is like a place you jump in and pop out at the other side.
Part 2. In my backyard it is foggy, cold and even raining a little. I ask my mom if we really have to go today, but its because Francis, who is fat, needs to train and do more physical exercise for his ankles. Me and my sister hop in while he hangs around. Suddenly his ankles start hurting like hell and he screams in pain. He leaves the pool.

Dream 5: I have lived this dream before. Today? A week ago? A month ago? I dunno. But it was not my first time in the following dream. I have to save a princess, or something like that. Not sure what, but its very important. I am in a church with tons of persons on the benches. In a dramatic entrance, my partner Arnold Schwarzenegger comes inside with a ray of light. We both go in the middle and he does a ritual with an onion. While he does this bad guys jump to attack us and prevent whatever were doing. In them is Fonzie (but old, like in AD) and Lindsay Bluth. There are more I cant recall. Arnold throws me the onion and in reflex I throw it to the bad dudes. I immediatly recognize my mistake and manage to take it back. Once the ritual is complete, the princess is born inside Camille, and shes gonna have to blow up to give it birth. Nice. A parade storms all around. A woman is wearing a big orange afro wig. Another has puppets.

Dream 6: I am talking to an old man in front of a shelve full of music CDs. He talks to me about how he loves Billy Talent and other Alternative/punk bands. Hes wearing a red jacket. I propose to him other artists from my music library, including Daughtry and Nickelback. Then when I mention Green Day, he says: Oh yeah, that was his girlfriend in hockey! And im like: Yeah! Uh...What? Thats it.

Six in one. Yay! Thats gotta be like the whole freakin night! But with all this, 6 NIGHTS LEFT. I decided tonight is my last shot. If I dont get a respectable, full lucid dream in the following night (like my second one ) im pulling out THE HEAVY ARTILLERY

That means RC every freakin minute, DEILD, MILD or WILD if fail, WBTB, even CAN-WILD if required. Im gonna read, watch, post, live the dream. The clock is ticking, but I WILL fly until school. Thats guaranteed. I will even talk to my parents about it and listen to MP3s if it is absolutely needed.

i've always wanted to go to new york, so this dream as me having mixed emotions. and on top of that, it was clear i was with a man. i can't recall who it was, but it felt like i've known him before. and he was nice to me. he made me laugh and vice versa. he drove and i was in the passenger seat. he waited and didn't say anything when i put on my shoes in the car. it's weird because the shoes i were putting on, actually hurt my feet in real life. (i wore them to a job interview, and by the end of it, my feet were aching), but in my dream. they fit perfectly. and i even asked myself why don't they hurt? we walked side by side, and dropped people off at their destination. this is a dream, so new york was literally across a few streets, bodied by a little water. i screamed joy when i saw the statue of liberty, and even pointed to show him. he didn't get mad. he didn't yell. he followed where my finger was pointing and laughed at my enthusiasm. he loved me, and i loved him too. this was for certain. we parked, and walked around new york streets. i saw a fire truck, with new york firemen perched outside of it, and i told him "i wanna take a picture", and i took out my cell and snapped a few shots. we walked up a few hills. the street signs were similiar to the ones around my neighborhood in los angeles; and i was excited to go back home and tell my grandma about it. prior to that, we were inside a cupcake shop, waiting for something. we were standing around waiting for something. i'm not sure what it was. we were just there.

but, i awoke about a few minutes ago, and i feel a certain way. at one point, i started to cry because i didn't know who the man was. if it was 2 of my exes that i'm in contact with, or just a random, great guy that happens to like me. i know for sure in my dream i wasn't big. my weight was just correct. i have so many answers, but i don't know where to start.

I only have time to record this one dream, but it was amazing, at least in feel.

I've woken up during the transition from one dream to another, slightly anyway. I transition straight into this attic which has a ladder that I am climbing. I'm lucid. The feeling is unbelievable, and not even the lucid part. I feel like I am standing there, and it's real life with a surreal touch. I can smell, feel, touch, and see everything so clearly. It is as if I am ACTUALLY standing there. I have experienced but once before in my dreams. It's unbelievable, as if my body has literally been transported to another world during the night. As I climb the ladder, slowly, I open the door that is on the ceiling. As I do so, sunlight streams in and I fly right up into the sky. I soar above the lands that lie below, and euphoria encompasses me. The realization that I am once again in my dream from a month ago or so hits me. I am amazed that i was able to tap into this feeling and world again. It is the actual continuation of that dream. There is golden sand scattered next to a gleaming, deep azure ocean. There is a castle fortress along with other buildings of a medieval appearance. The most amazing thing is that despite being far into this sky, hovering, I can see every detail of the land below. Off to the side there is a dark section of this land, where presumably the villain lives. She is actually female this time around, and I can feel her presence. But along with hers I can also feel Martinez's, who is trapped along with other people in one of the buildings. I don't see him, but his face flashes in my mind.. I need to get rid of the evil. The dream transitions..

I'm on a bus with a group of students who posses magic, it seems. Or at least they are going off to magic school. I'm sitting next to an older teenage guy, although I don't feel like myself. I'm in someone else's body with their mind. I'm telepathic, and I discover that the guy next to me is as well. I say something to him from my mind, and his face displays shock as he discovers.. It's strangely beautiful, talking to someone simply from one's mind. I share with him my plans about catching the villainness. He agrees to go with me to fight. We escape the bus..and I cannot remember much more save for the fact that I am starring in a novel.

These dreams were dreams of firsts. First time tapping into the same dream from a previous night. Unbelievable.

Date: Aug.23
Time: 10:40am (when I woke up)

Description: This was my first lucid dream that I retained lucidity, and second one total. It starts as a false awakening from a really weird dream that is an adventure in it's own right.

Dream: Immediately after I lost "dream consciousness" in my non lucid dream before this, I see an image of a long doorknob that looks like an I on it's side. It spins really fast as the image appears closer to me, think of the cliche newspaper articles you see spin onto movie screens. The spinning stops and I now look around my room, well it's my childhood room, I immediately become aware of the possibility of another lucid dream. I getup from beneath the blankets I am in, and roll off the bed, landing on my feet I head towards the door and open it. I have the same feeling as my first dream of a different gravity almost. It really feels strange. I walk into my hall and head right towards the living room. I notice Christmas decorations (the ones from when I was a kid.) and look at my living room. I see the T.V. entertainment center with little dolls on top, and decorated lights around it. That is straight ahead of me. Now where I am standing the kitchen is to my left, the door leading outside is to my right about 6 feet. And a couch-side table is 3 to 4 feet in front of me. I see my mother sitting in her usual spot (still hasn't changed lol). A t.v dinner tray in front of her but it is early in the morning she uses it to have items she needs in front of her. The couch-side table is about 1-2 feet high off the ground, the couch is a long green couch. And at the end of the couch to the right is the entertainment center. My mom says "Good you are up, sleeping in will ruin your sleeping schedule." I look at the room and see the clock we have, it looks like a very shorty version of the grandfather clock, it hangs on the wall its brown, has the pendulum swinging thing, the whole thing isn't more than 2 feet tall, but I notice it's position is moved from where it normally is. I look at this already lucid, and see its round face with the numbers is completely pitch black! like its a dark void. I feel the need to do a reality check as this is all to real, my mom hands me the phone to check something, as she normally does in real life, and I use it to do a RC, I can't read the menus or anything. This confirms what I already knew, I was dreaming. I don't get excited and remain calm, to keep the flow of the dream going. I now notice that I am not wearing anything but my shorts (what I usually wear to bed). I tell my mom "Mom, right now I am dreaming, you aren't really there, its just my subconscious representing you!" She didn't believe me (I read dream characters can't be convinced that your dreaming lol) "Your right sweetie!" she says not paying much attention to me, kind of blowing me off. "I still love you though mom." And give her a quick hug. Now the first thing on my mind is to be able to fly, so I head for the door. I open it up, and leave the house. Outside everything is covered in snow, the cement side walk though is all shoveled and the ground seems dry (the cement parts) but the grass is completely covered in snow. I notice an ice patch on the side walk. I run on to the grass and jump up. I fall normally back to earth, disappointed I wonder why, then it dawned on me,I must believe I can fly. So I close my eyes and really think that I can, I start levitating above the ground. Slowly rising. I start noticing other houses covered in snow, i feel the wind blow, but don't feel any cold. As I climb higher and higher I can finally see the neighborhood block. Everything is so real and I start getting butterflies because of the height, but quickly dispel any negative thoughts about my confidence of flight. Now I am way past the tops of the trees around my house and looking around at all the two story houses covered in snow around me. I suddenly stop rising to enjoy the view, I turn around and wonder where to go.......when suddenly I lose "dream consciousness" and I wake up for real, in my bed. I lay there for a minute or two just thinking of what I accomplished. It was a remarkable experience. Actually being there, not just remember it like any other dream, but actually being there, like waiting in line for the dragster at Cedar Point, I was really there, and it was the same for this dream, I was really there, but not at the same time. I can't wait for greater and longer adventures within the realm of my mind.

Date: Aug.22/23 Sunday
Time: around 8:40 am

Description: To start off I want to explain something. I had this as my very 1st lucid dream to date that I can remember. I had another more lucid one right after this with more details and events and more control, but I will post that at a future time. Most of this is straight out of my dream journal by my bed. I also apologize if it doesn't seem like there weren't many details, the dream really only lasted about 1 minute.

Dream: The dream starts off with me looking at a stack of ps3 games and on top of them are ps2 games, I can't remember any of the titles but I think the very top ps2 game was NHL 2003. As I look at the stack I rotate them to see their spines. The games are sitting on my wooden brown desk at the center. I am sitting on my knees on the ground, and I notice my nephew on my computer struggling to play the ps2 games (pcsx2 for anyone that knows the program). So I tell him to move over so I can go to set it up. He gives me this look of frustration as he looks at the clock in my room, which I think (he never tells me, but I assume) that he has to go soon, that him and his dad are leaving. I tell him "Chill dude, it takes an hour to setup anyways." As I look at the screen and see some text, the text onscreen seem to shift and shake (that could of been my eyes, kind of like the shaky vision you get from drinking to much alcohol) and strange runic symbols appear. At that precise moment I yell out "HOLY CRAP, I AM DREAMING!" My stomach goes to butterflies and I get really excited. I fall backwards, and the scene starts to zoom out, I get the feeling you get when going down hills on a roller coaster, and now I am in a black void so to speak, I instantly remember the spinning technique that Laberge created. To re stabilize the dream, it works for a moment as I zoom back into the dream, I notice someone was sitting to my right, the lights were off and the glow of the computer screen was the only light source, I don't know who this third person was, my suspect is my nephews younger brother. I don't know. Now I zoom back out as soon as I touch down in the scene again but I kinda of lose consciousness so to speak. Now I imagine myself spinning, now a new seen appears where I am high above a city with lots of buildings, they all have a purple glow about them, I can tell it is night time, cause I see the windows have lights coming from out them. I am above the city, but again lose consciousness again (I mean everything turns pitch black) and I shoot out of my real bed, it takes me a moment to collect myself as this was the most intense thing of my life.

Other details: One extra detail I need to say, is once I went lucid, the feeling of being there was so real, except for it feeling like my body was kind of heavy or light, gravity on me seemed way different.

So there it is, I hope you guys have comments, I am interested in what you have to say about the experience, and it was an experience cause I really was there, it wasn't a memory of a dream, I was there!

I thought I would just upload some of my dreams I have recorded in my DJ. Also a few past dreams I had when I was younger.

Mythic Date: Unknown; Lucid: Yes
This dream is one from the past. I was this strange creature, blue, with colorful designs, bipod like. I was in this strange world, blue skys - littered with clouds, beige rocky canyon with very shallow water running in it, like a tributary but the water was a bout 2 inches deep. Very warm. Waterfalls pouring into a shallow pond/lake. I remember seeing a female version of my species, whom I felt VERY attracted too. Like your first love or true love, this was the affection I had for her.

I remember a ship dusting off and departing from the the world, and me and my counterpart had waved a goodbye as it left. I assume it dropped us off on this to colonize/repopulate? seeing as how we were the only species of our type on it. I remember seeing kids, for some reason I think they were mine so im assuming I have good relationship skills. This was one of my favorite dreams, the feeling of deep affection for someone is like none other.

Slenderman Date: 8/17/10; Lucid: No
I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with the Slenderman but this is my dream about it. I was in this Halloween looking town, dark with reds and oranges and blacks. I see decorations of witches and pumpkins. I'm in a group of 3 people. Me, an attractive woman with red dyed hair, and the Slenderman. Suddenly my dream switches settings.

I'm now in an underground bunker, that seems run down but not derelict. It is populated with humans and it seems to be a commuter town. Water is draining from plumbing pipes that are sticking out of the cracking/breaking walls. I now switch over to the attractive woman. I remember sitting in bed with a drape over the side, it is very bright and I remember talking to the Slenderman. Now I switch roles again and I am the Slenderman. I seem to be thinking of evil intentions but not acting on them.

Technicality Date: 8/22/10; Lucid: No
Im using my laptop. The setting is my room. On my laptop I'm using BitTorrent for some reason. I appear to be downloading some program that doesn't exist.

I'm now in my old town that I moved from. I remember my neighborhood and how nostalgic it is. Nothing more after this.

Pokemon and Civil Wars Date: 8/23/10; Lucid: No
This is a strange one. I'm not sure why I even dreamed about this. I see Team Rocket from Pokemon. I mean, the original Team Rocket, Jesse and James. It appears to be a live action reenactment of the show, but the actors look just like the anime characters. They were having a talk at a dinner table and discussing over something. Then the live action actors turned into the anime characters as the dream went on.

Now I'm waking up, preparing for classes for college. I'm taking a shower but now my friends are in my house, talking and planning to do something. I change my clothes and walk downstairs to my deck. I look outside and see the Civil War happening in my backyard. I see a Confederate man and a Union man fighting. At this point, they both lose ammo, pull swords out and slice at each other. The Confederate wounds the Union soldier and then he executes him with a primitive pistol. Suddenly, the British from the American Revolution start charging at the Confederate and they kill him. I dont see blood or anything in this.

Nightmares and Death Date: Unknown; Lucid: Yes
I had a nightmare of being chased by rabid dogs. Huge dogs. I remember being bitten and not feeling the pain, but I felt shock and panic. I finally thought to myself "ENOUGH!" and the dream stopped in its tracks. I then proceeded to dream about more relaxing dreams. I've never had a nightmare since.

I remember being on the Empire State building. I'm looking over the city, although its just a few skyscrapers and nothing more. Next thing I know, I'm falling, though I do not feel the experience of falling. I hit the ground, but instead of waking up, I wind up in a white room. Nothing but white. I cannot detail the size of the room but for some reason it seems big, unfathomable.

#1: non-lucid

I was at a lock on the waterway where my dad works, with a friend of mine. We're sitting on the grass, and she has a tiny turtle that she's feeding pieces of bread. I go with her as she carries the turtle over to the side of the lock and puts it down in the water. She tears off pieces of bread and throws them into the water. The turtle is eating them, and small fish swim up to eat too. More and bigger fish show up, and for a moment I see a piranha. I'm afraid that if she stops throwing bread, the piranha will start eating the other fish or her turtle.
Even bigger fish start coming up, the water is completely full of them, big bass. My mom shows up, and takes some bread from my friend, and tosses a few pieces onto the concrete beside the water. I ask what she's doing and she says that she needs to get dinner. A huge bass flops up onto the concrete, and starts flipping itself further from the water. There was grass in that direction before, but now there's a long, but shallow, empty swimming pool. It was full of dirt and dead leaves, and the fish landed in it and stopped moving.
I cross to the other side of the lock, and see a bunch of oyster shells stuck to the side, just above the water and clustered up high, and most of them are empty. The ones that aren't are still open, and I can see the pink skin inside breathing. There's a sign beside them that says "a clam shell contains air and 14 breathing mechanisms."
I look across the lock at my friend, who has coaxed two sea lions up out of the water, and holding some bread up above on of their heads, trying to get it to reach up its nose to eat

#2: lucid
When the dream started, I was going through the mail in my kitchen, and found that I had been mailed a magazine. Inside the front cover was a message that said "if you want to know more, meet me in Vaughn" and there were instructions on which bus I should take, and a finished with "More instructions will follow." It was signed Deb Graves, who was a strange woman that I met(in real life) at a gallery opening recently. I was reading this message while sitting in my living room, and when I looked up my mom was on the couch with me, and I showed her the message.
She took the magazine from me and seemed to read it, but when she looked back at me, she just started berating me. My mom acting like that is actually a pretty common dream sign for me, and it prompted me to do a reality check. I looked at my hands, and wasn't entirely convinced, so I pinched my nose and I could breathe. I stayed calm through the realization, and immediately started rubbing my hands together and looking around me, which brought the details of the room into focus.
I didn't want to stay with my dream mom, she was still yelling, so I left the house. It was too bright, I needed to stabilize, so I bent down and ran my hands over the grass, which was wet. My mom had followed me out of the house though, so I started moving down the street. I was trying to will her away, tried to tell her that she wasn't real, I wasn't really sure how to get rid of her, but nothing I tried worked.
She started trying to convince me that I was actually awake. Specifically, she said, "I know what you dont know. I know that if you looked at your hands right now, they'd look just like my hands."
I started running from her, and I remembered reading a post on the forums about running really quickly on all fours. I started running on my hands and feet and it felt completely natural and smooth. I kept saying "faster, faster" and every time I did I felt my speed increase. The world was streaking by.
When I stopped, she was still right behind me. I decided to try to fly. I closed my eyes and imagined what it would feel like to lift off the ground, and then it was actually happening. I started to drift upwards, and I was feeling thin and light, like I was transparent. I tried to visualize a forest before I opened my eyes, hoping that I'd be flying over it when I did. Instead I was still over the street, and my mom was clinging to my legs.
I drifted back down, set her down on the ground, and she let go without struggling. I lifted up higher and higher and started moving forwards. On the horizon, there were billowing swirls of bright yellow and dark blue, and I started moving towards them. The detail faded quickly before I woke up, but it didn't feel abrupt.

Type: DILD.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Notes:
This one feels pretty similar to my last recorded dream. The vividness decreased when I became lucid, but I still managed to complete the evasive TOTM and witness a terrorist attack.

This dream started off with me being on a long rope of grassy hill. It was a hill that rose only ten or fifteen feet from the ground, so walking back down to the ground would take less than a minute. It was probably later in the day, but it had yet to become noticeably dark.

The rest of the land was flat and covered in grass, and you couldn't see anything in any direction except a road traveling along the base of the hill that led to a very nearby city. The tall buildings started at the end of the hill, so you can visualize how close the city was; I was right on the outskirts of it.

I looked around and suddenly became lucid, shouting "yes" rather excitedly and doing the nose-plug reality check, which obviously failed. But then, the dream suddenly decreased in vividness. Things became slightly hazy and the lighting became dim, although it was still light outside. I rubbed my hands for stabilization and touched the blades of grass on the ground, but it didn't help. So, still being on the hill and in no position to move, I decided to summon a white unicorn that I could ride. After all, I had no idea how long the dream would last but I didn't want to flip out. I used the familiar turn-around-and-expect-it-to-be-behind-me technique, and it was.

However, although it was a bit harder to see, I could tell that the unicorn was a bit smaller than normal. I don't know how to measure horses in terms of hands, but it was probably only four feet tall. It also looked like its skin was made of white velvet, and I couldn't see its muscles moving as it walked over to me. It looked sort of like a toy, but that didn't bother me. I got up on it with a jump and landed square on its back, without having to reposition myself.

There was no harness so I looked away, out towards the city, and then back again; there was now a single metal hoop around its neck. I rolled my eyes and expected it to walk forward, and it did. The dream still wasn't fading, so I got off it to do something else.

That was when I lost most of my lucidity, with only a bit lingering. The road on the base of the hill had now changed to a six- or seven-lane highway with cars traveling quickly along them. All the lanes were in one direction, I observed. Although I wasn't lucid, I then chose to summon a random DC to test my dream control. I tried to summon it, but nothing appeared. I looked at the sky and then, at that very moment, two large gray planes flew overhead at an incredible speed, directly into the buildings in the city. There was an explosion which blew me backwards quite a bit, and the city buildings were now on fire.

The dream ended.

I had more dreams but this short sort of lucid dream is all I remember.

Sexy Time (dild)

I was at my Aunt's house and I was looking at my hands and they were normal but I knew I was dreaming. I went into the basement where I found a woman. This quickly turned into romance. I felt the dream slipping so I just focused on the woman but shortly woke up anyways.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID FALSE AWAKENING

0:20 GMT

Bus tickets
Can’t remember how I got there, but I’m on some bus stop in the middle of nowhere looking at a map at a ticket vending machine, trying to figure out where I want to go and what ticket I must purchase.
I make several attempts with no success when I hear the bus coming. The problem is I’m not alone – there’s a huge queue behind me and people are getting stressed with my indecision. I just press whatever button and I get a ticket for one whole day to get to the city centre (no idea which city) and it costs me 4 EUR something.

Looking for food and playing levitation football
I’m now feeling hungry and I pass by some complex, like a stadium, where there are snack-bars and cafés. I stop at one that announces some type of Italian food but when I actually look at the food it is not at all Italian. But since it is mostly vegetarian and I am vegetarian, I decide to eat there. I ask the lady on the other side how it works and she says I can choose this and this and make a menu. I agree. But then she just leaves. I go after her, asking why she’s leaving and she explains she needs to get something from the storage house which is on the floor below. She invites to go along with her. Why not? As we descend a ramp, I hear someone calling my name.
I turn around and it is this lady I don’t see since I was a kid, from the extra school activities’ place. She tells me I need to take some leaflets with me for whatever place I’m supposed to go later on. It is really crucial, so tells me to write it down. I have no paper to write it down so I repeat to myself I must not forget it, although I have no clue what she is talking about. Then I realise I lost the buffet girl and I am on a football field, where boys are playing football. The ball is coming in my direction and I kick it to avoid being hit by it. It was a nice kick and although they are upset that I’m disturbing their game, they actually liked the kick so they keep throwing the ball at me. I’m getting tired of this game, so I levitate to above the field so they can keep playing. Instead they start throwing the ball higher so I can kick it down again. This new game is fun and I end up doing lots of acrobatics with the ball that amuses them.

Surreal village with flying fish
I’m in a cute village with floor level houses and tiny streets. Something catches my eye. On the façade of one house there’s an aquarium with no glass walls. By the side of the door is just this weird floating water, aquatic plants and fish swimming, holding together without any container. Some tourists stop by a take a picture in front of it. They ask me something about some writer, but I don’t know what they mean.
I keep walking and on another street there are to giant fishes swimming in the air. I decide not to cross under them and move to another street. There I find 2 or 3 dogs. They look friendly and I’m not afraid, but one of them is maybe too friendly and starts coming fast in my direction. I get a bit scared and decide to fly to get rid of it. But the god damn dog jumps so high, that no matter how high I fly to get away from it, he keeps jumping higher and higher and trying to bite my leg – not to hurt me, just to bring me down, but still very annoying.

Math class
I’m in a math class at the university and the teacher is talking about integers. Usually I would freak out for not understanding a thing, but I simply thought “I will study it from the books and understand it in no time. No problem.” Outside the class I think that I haven’t yet been to any other class and realise I have no idea what they are or where they are. I thought that if only I had a friend with me we would help each other. But still I was cool, no stress about it.

Sweetheart from school now a violent guy
I met a guy that used to be my secret love in elementary school. I was so happy to see him again and all those old innocent love feelings came back. But when he is all sweet talk to me, a lady appears - she looks a bit Indian – with a baby of 1 or 2 years old in her arms. She is his mother-in-law and the kid is his son. She puts the baby in his arms but he is totally spaced out and does not hold him. She barely has time to grab him as he slides down to the floor. I am so socked at this that I just go and take the baby in my arms, cuddle him so hard, trying to reduce the potential trauma on this baby. I feel so angry at this guy. He then just leaves totally disconnected from all that is going on around him. The lady stays and I tell her to please understand that this guy is crazy and sees the baby as an annoying object. I tell her that the baby is in danger and it is a matter of time until he hurts or kills the baby due to negligence. I yell at her, please tell the mother of the baby that the is in danger and to please keep the baby away from his father. But she also looks like she couldn’t care less, she leaves with the baby and I feel desperate and powerless.


Five star casual hotel
I go head to a hotel where I’m staying. It is late night and there’s nobody around. The dogs of the guests roam free in the hallways, despite the fact that it is a fancy 5 star hotel. I am amazed, because this is allowed. They apparently came from outside and messed up the floor with dirt. So I encounter a cleaning lady that is wiping the floor and for some I feel intimidated. But then I realise that I’m staying at the hotel, so no point of being embarrassed. I don’t feel like going to my room, so I walk around, exploring the hotel and I end up in a lobby, where there’s people comfortably sitting on sofas, chatting. On that lobby I see a huge entrance to what looks like an interior garden, so I go check. When I enter the place I am awed at the beauty of it. It’s a mix of architecture and landscaping that captures my imagination. The shock is so great that I become half-lucid. In front of me there’s a lake with a fountain and beautiful plants and on both sides of it there are staircases leading to an upper balcony that leads to some another lobby and then a concert room. There are some strategic placed square sofas just by the lake and I sit – actually lay down with my legs up and head down. Then I realise they have giant screens close to the ceiling transmitting the concert that is taking place in the concert room. I feel so emotional that tears come to my eyes.

Forbidden love story
I am the daughter of a rich family living on a huge mansion, but I have a crush for this guy that works for us. I meet him downstairs in the basement where my parents never go. Maybe he already knew my feelings, but this is the first time I am clear about it with him. Apparently the feelings are mutual, because in no time we are locked in the bathroom, ripping our clothes off and making love in such a sweet and intimate way.
Later on we’ve escaped to what I think is a romantic haven in some greek island. We’re waking up in bed on small cosy room with a fantastic view to the ocean. I am happier than ever and I tell him I go downstairs looking for some breakfast. The door leads to outside directly and then I find myself in some outside terrace and there’s a door leading to the dining room, which is also small and cosy. Some lady asks me how does breakfast work and I explain it is buffet and tell her how and where to eat. I check what’s today’s menu and I’m heading to the room for shower before eating, when I decide that just by snapping my fingers I can have the shower done in no time. Then I realise I’m dreaming! And I think what to do next. There’s a glassy wall in front of me and as I look to my dim reflection on it the only thing that occurs to me is changing my own appearance, which I never tried before. I think I would like to be taller and have longer legs (Yeah, that simple. I should have wished to become a lion, or something, but didn't occur to me). I try imagine myself growing and it doesn’t work. So I make a mark on the wall of the height I want to reach and by looking at it my legs start extending and I end up with around 10 cms more – not much, but I also didn’t want to become a giant, ok! The worst part is that the bones in my legs hurt like hell when I was growing. Still, it was cool when my boyfriend arrived and I was almost as tall as him. Mission accomplished.

Volcano and what to save from cataclism
I was apparently back in Greece on some mountainous area where there was a dormant volcano. A lady was driving me around and she said to me they’ve lived their entire lives close to it and felt no fear. But almost immediately the volcano started showing signs of an eminent eruption. Then everybody panicked! I told people to go to the opposite side of the mountain of that one where the eruption seemed to be happening, as it would probably be safer, but then I thought “Hum, this is familiar. And also such a coincidence. I must be dreaming.” And I became lucid.
I thought about what to do of it and this time I decided to use the dream itself to explore my subconscious. Decided to materialise my home in that mountain and go through the exercise of choosing what to save from the cataclysm. It wasn’t my home exactly but instead there was a hole excavated in the rocky mountain, like a sightseeing terrace encircled by the rocks, and all my books, clothes and other personal belongings were there. I wondered around – books, but which books, clothes but which clothes. Nothing seemed to be really important but then I thought “I must at least save a pair of fresh underwear to take with me”. I then started going through my underwear and there were these cute and sexy lingerie that I started to pack loads of it. Until it rang a bell in my head and I was like “What are you doing? Don’t get lost in the dream. What is this with the lingerie in your dreams?”
Then I realised there was really nothing that worth of salvation. Just me. So I decided to simply absorb that freedom sensation and write it down when I’d wake up. Then I woke up (or thought so) and started writing down the dream. But then my pen that I usually use to write down my dreams was not writing, even if there was some ink on it. That’s when I looked around and saw I was still in the dream. That’s when I really woke up.

Another lucid ended thanks to my cat!!!! (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

It was a "messy" night. I woke up a few times, with and without recall. I was very tired and I missed to write a couple dreams... Mainly fragments. I hope my subconscious ends to digest my new stuff on my business. One lucid interrupted by my cat.

Third:

I was in my room. It was very dark. Fore some reason I did a realty check. My hand looked blurry and I found it odd. I looked at my hands again and I had three fingers. I did not find I was a lot into the dream. I had no imaginery in my dream, so I was planning to start to fly to gain back the imaginery and make the dream stable. This is something I do NOT recommend, specially to my students on the MILD classes. I do not recommend start to fly to steblize the dream, as it will probably screw your dream and wake you up. Use traditional methods. Since I can remember, flight helped me to get more into the dream, but that is me. So please, my dear students, do not follow my steps on this... as its a rare case.
Before I was going to fly, I tried again to open my dream eyes. For some reason I couldn't. I remember this happening to me a few times when I was a kid, and indeed flying would fix it. I felt the air on my face. Suddenly, I entered in the double conscious mode. I could feel my waking body laying in bed and my dream body starting to fly. I avoided trying to open my eyes just yet, I knew the imagenery would return by it self.
I returned to dream conscious only and I started to feel more air in my face. Suddently, I woke up. My cat was talking and walking over my back asking for love.

Missing dream signs:
- None.

Reality check performed:
- Hand Check.
- Hand Check.

I want to add to this my wife's first lucid!!!

My wife hardly recalls dreams and never works in this stuff. However, sometimes when she sees something odd, she has learned to reality check... just in case. It paid off.

My wife had a false awakening in the room. She woke up from bed and went outside. Suddenly, she was in bed agai and had other false awakening. She found that odd and looked at her hads. My wife could not see well her hand, she counter her fingers and found six. My wife turned lucid. She remembered my advice of not flying because she would wake up. Yay for her! A fully lucid though. My wife was planning to explore the dream, however, everything started to happen very fast. Tons of images flashed through her eyes and she woke up.

Wife's missed dream sings:
- First FA..

Wife's spotted dream signs:
- Second FA.

Wife's Realy Check Performed:
- Hand check.

I had just got done hitting a guy in the face when I walk through a metal door into what seemed to be a warehouse with a lot of semi truck docks. I was standing beside a guy who I dont know who he was. Then for some reason I realize Im dreaming. It hit me so suddenly I said Oh my god im dreaming! to the guy, and began running past all of the docks. I passed a worker and put my hands up and yelled IM DREAMING to the guy as I ran by. I then began to feel myself start to wake up so I first remember to concentrate on my hands I put my hands up and when I look at them I see them start to crack and split open like they were burning away and started to feel the effects of waking up more so I think fast and remember spinning, I spin around one time and I am back into my dream. I stand there and realize that I can feel my real body the one laying in bed and I can feel my position Im laying in, yet I know im standing in my dreamworld. I then run over to a door and open it to a nice outdoor landscape and there is a cement ramp with stairs and a rail. Well I think to myself I have ALWAYS wanted to fly in my dreams and never had the chance. So I think to myself I can fly and jump over the railing and begin to fly to a hill I see. I remember trying to go higher in the sky but I couldnt control myself. Then I crash into the hill softly. I am on my knees and I touch the grass with my hands and feel how real it seems and say Oh my god it looks so real! It was so vivid and realistic and I knew I was in a dream yet amazed by the detail. I then thought okay I want to close my eyes and when I open them be in a city. Well I close my dream eyes and when I open them I open my real eyes, and wake up. I was so happy to have my first lucid. Yet as I sat there I thought to myself am I still dreaming? But unfortunately I wasnt still dreaming.

I haven't been on in a month! I feel terrible! But good news... I had one lucid and one somewhat-lucid! And I completed a personal goal! Okay. I didn't write down all the dreams I had, () but I did get a few. I'm just going to copy and paste from the DJ I keep in Microsoft Word, so here's a few quick things:

Sam: a friend.
Animorphs: book characters.
VBYC: a camp I go to.
Kid's Club: a church thing I go to.
Short Stop: a little store in my town.
Hanna & Sophie: my little sisters.
Village Market: another store.
Lincoln Lake: where band camp was this year.
Justin: another friend.

~~~I Should’ve Written This Stuff Down~~~ date: 8/13/10

I’ve had so many dreams, and haven’t recorded them! Grrrrrr! *deep breath* Okay. Some dreams I can remember:

~At Sam’s house, I had this dream: The Animorphs were there. Apparently I was part of the team. We were running all around this place that was kind of like VBYC. Now that I think about it, it looks strangely like a camp-type place I’ve dreamed about before. Then… something that involved morphing, or not morphing because of something / someone. We were in some bathroom area, not unlike the bathhouse at VBYC. We found these glowing green tracking device thingies. Then we all morphed… or at least, everyone else morphed and I tried to. I was aiming to go tiger, but all that happened was I felt muscles get stronger and my shoulders do something, then I couldn’t get any further into the morph. Typical me. I wasn’t even the slightest bit lucid; I don’t know why it didn’t work. I’m pretty sure there was more.

~Also had this one at Sam’s house: I was at Kid’s Club, only it wasn’t at the church. It was some weird amalgam of a little building and our barn and a big field. (Why is it that locations can never just be themselves in my dreams? They always have to mix and merge with other places. Confusing.) There was a big statue thing with a bunch of rules on it. I walked over to the barn, where there were a few crates of things like shields and swords. Everything looked kind of battered and worn. Most of the swords were bent up. Sam was there, along with some guy. They both managed to find not-bent swords and shields and started sword fighting. Not for real, just playfully. Anyways. I couldn’t find a good sword or shield. I stood around for a while and waited for Sam and the guy to be done, but the dream either ended there or something happened that I don’t remember and that’s how I ended up…

~In a bedroom. It was relatively dark. There were… eight other people, I think. We were playing some insanely weird game. Here’s how it went: 1.) Two people sit on the bed. 2.) Everyone else gathers around the bed, kneeling or sitting. 3.) Little symbols start appearing randomly over the people around the bed. 4.) The people on the bed have to ‘poke’ the symbols to get rid of them before they take effect. 5.) If symbols take effect on a person three times, that person it out. Okay, here’s an explanation for that stuff. The symbols all made something happen to the person they were above if they weren’t ‘poked.’ For example, a symbol of a coughing person would make the person its above start to cough if not ‘poked.’ Then you had your more… odd symbols. One was a fan. If it wasn’t ‘poked,’ it would turn the person’s head into a fan. We played that game for a while. Nothing happened to me.

~Okay, from before those dreams. This was pure epic-ness. I was in some super cool world. There was another person with me, but I can’t remember who it was. I’m positive it was no one I know IRL, though. We went into some building that the Mad Hatter made hats in. Then… I WAS FLYING! FINALLY! I had some help, though. There were these things like launch pads scattered around that you could stand on, and they would launch you into the air. I went on one, and once I was up, I STAYED THERE! HOLY COW! It was so fun. Me and the other person landed at my grandma’s house. At this point, I wasn’t quite lucid, but I was aware that something was up. I think it was enough to call it a lucid, though, because I was trying to use powers and explore a bit. And—as usual—as soon as I became the tiniest bit lucid, everything got more difficult. I tried to fly up onto the roof, but I could only manage to float a little. I floated high enough to grab the edge of the roof and pull myself up. I stood up and looked around, and there was a girl standing there. She had sparkling pink and blue wings.
“Are you a fairy?” I asked her. She said yes. I asked if I could be a fairy, and she told me that I could, but that I would have to get my wings myself. I think that was it.

~Last one. I was walking down the road that goes straight to/from Short Stop. My mom and Hanna and Sophie were with me. There were big flowerpots all down the sidewalk, but the flowers looked sort of droopy. I had a sowing needle with me for some reason, and when I poked the flowers, they would instantly perk up. I did that for a while until I accidentally dropped the needle down a grate.
“I have to go to the bathroom,” Hanna said.
“Of course you do,” my mom said. She took Hanna and Sophie down to Village Market so Hanna could go to the bathroom. I kept walking down the road. A biggish dog with curly black fur came up to me, and I took an apple out of one of the flowerpots (that entire ‘flower’ pot was filled with fruit, actually) and gave it to the dog. He happily ate it. Then a whole bunch of stray animals started coming up, wanting stuff to eat. Across the road, one of the buildings had a huge, gaping hole in the side. I could see biscuits and more fruit inside. I went in, grabbed some food, ran back out, and fed the animals. When I went to get more food, tons more people were flooding into the building to get some, too. As I was leaving that time, something caught me leg and I had to tug kind of hard to get free. I looked back, and this mist-looking stuff was wrapping around people and dragging them into the building.
“Run!” some guy who hadn’t been caught yet yelled. I got to the other side of the street. The people who had been grabbed by the mist stuff were coming out. Their eyes were all glazed over in a weird, white-swirled-with-blue color. The tried to take other people back into the building. A tendril of mist wrapped around my torso and started pulling me in. I couldn’t break away.
Then I woke up. Whew! That’s all. All that I can remember, at least.


~~~When Band Camp Goes Bad… Really Bad~~~ date: 8/15/10

~ I was at band camp, but it wasn’t at the Lincoln Lake place. I don’t know where it was. It was terrible, though. Any time we were supposed to be taking a break or having a meal, all the instructors would start fighting with each other, get really mad, and make us practice marching whether we had finished our meal/break or not. We always rode to wherever we were going on a little train thing, like the ones that are at zoos a lot. Then I’m standing with a few people in front of a guy sitting in a chair. He’s being held in the chair by the wrist and feet and head strap things, like on an electric chair. The people are using the guy to demonstrate what they’re about to do to me. One of them pulls out a hypodermic needle. I’m instantly running out of the room.
“Hey! Stop her!” they shout. Security people start chasing me. I’m in a mostly unfamiliar building, but some of the rooms look kind of like room from my house. I keep finding ways to elude the people chasing me, like turning corners unexpectedly and hiding until they pass me and then backtracking. But then I almost run into a horse. (?) I turn around and go to run through a doorway. Two guys reach out right as I go through and grab my arms, then one of them goes off to tell whoever that I’m caught, leaving me with the second guy. We’re in my kitchen. I bite the guy’s arm that’s holding me and bolt out the door, which leads outside. The guy follows but doesn’t try to stop me. I think he was under the impression that I was retarded or something and didn’t think I would try to escape.
“I left my stuffed animal out here,” I tell him. “In the car.”
He nods and follows me to the van parked in the driveway. I jump in and start it up. Then I stomp on the gas and fly right into a tree. Everything fades black for a second, then I’m back in the driveway. Now it’s snowing. Also, someone else is in the car.
“Hurry up! Come on, they’re gonna notice we’re gone!” he yells. A little confused, I hit the gas again. The van jolts forward into a big snow bank, and the ground starts splitting like a huge earthquake is happening.
“Great, now they’re really going to know we’re trying to escape!” the person in the car with me says. “Can you please HURRY!?”
I keep trying to drive and eventually get out of the snow bank. I get onto the road and drive as fast as I can without crashing. Other cars start coming after us. Somehow I get the pursuing cars off our tail. We get to my house and I stop the car and get out. Six or so other people also get out, though, instead of just the one other person that was there a few minutes ago.
“Come on, everyone come inside. I’ll… make some hot chocolate or something,” I say. We all go in and my mom says something about how she heard what a hard time we had.

~Frag. I’m in my room, and I have a spray bottle of stuff that can shrink people, but not objects. Needless to say, I had a lot of fun spraying myself with it.

~~~Apple Frag~~~ date: 8/22/10

I'm in my room with some other people. We split into teams, and I'm by myself. We all start throwing apples at each other.

~~~Fish~~~ same date

This entire dream consisted of carrying fish around and putting them in different tanks. They were orange and white fish.

~~~Lucid~~~ same date

I'm in a gas station with Justin. We're walking around, and suddenly he sees a bunch of Pokemon stuff. He goes ballistic. While he's taking most of that, I go to get something to drink. I look for vitamin water, but there's not any, so I get "cookie in a bottle." The instructions on it said, "Hold bottle upside-down and count to 100. Then shake violently." I just put it back and go outside. It looks like my grandma's garage. Then something happens I can't remember...
I end up in a car with some other people. I'm worried about getting in trouble, but then I realize I'm dreaming! I happily scream this fact to the others in the car. They all clap and cheer. I jump backwards through the side of the car and close my eyes. When I open them, I'm in some grassy place and I can hear a waterfall or a river somewhere. But that fades away and then I'm just outside somwhere. I try to morph into a tiger. ...Not happening.
"I should be doing something..." I say. I decide to go to Eluvi Island. I call for Blaze, but instead Boltron comes. He tries to say something, but some stupid jellyfish keeps floating in front of him. (???)

Well... that's it.
