      CAUTION: Contains spoilers from the 1996 film Primal Fear.

      I was walking towards the changeroom of my school's gymnasium. Everything looked fairly normal so far; I walked through the door to the changeroom and there was a 2-meter long hallway, which opened up into a square locker room with wooden benches on the walls. There were large borderless mirrors on the walls, above the benches, which wouldn't have been there in real life. Although I remember looking straight into them, I cannot remember seeing my reflection. Nevertheless, this caused me to become lucid; I then looked around for a few moments and observed the dream. It took a little while for me to remember my dream goals, but I remembered that one of them was to summon and talk to Roy Stampler, the sociopathic defendant from the film Primal Fear. I turn around and exit the changeroom, emerging into the gymnasium and then hanging a left, leaving that room as well. I am now in the hallway of my school, on the second floor. I go to the left again and then straighten out, heading down the hallway.

      Although the atmosphere of the changeroom and gymnasium was lighter, the atmosphere in the hallway was slightly dark, as if the school was about to close down for the day. But although the school was still 'open', at first glance there was no one there; this made the situation even more bizarre, but as I looked closer there were a few people walking along the floor below me. I looked over the balcony and wondered how I could summon Roy.

      I decided to try a somewhat new technique; instead of calling out for him or going through another door, I expected him to be behind me, lessening the time spent looking around for him. It worked. Soon I could feel someone tapping me on my shoulder, and I turned around, fully believing he would be behind me. The summoning was successful; I looked at him and he was all there, looking almost exactly like he should have. "There you are, Aaron. I've been looking all over for you." He shrugged and replied, "it's Roy, stop with the Aaron thing already."

      "Okay" I told him, throwing my hands up. "Let's get out of here so we don't attract any attention."

      After all, in this situation I was imagining that he was released from the mental institution early and that we were supposed to meet to speak together. Who knows why, and who knows why I decided to stay at the school to talk to him. At this point, I still didn't know what I was going to ask him, but I forgot about it for now and we walked until we got to a classroom. The classroom had a blue and green berber carpet, which felt softer than normal underneath my feet. I didn't look down to see whether I was wearing shoes or not, though. The desks were arranged as if an exam had just taken place; they were spaced evenly apart in rows facing the door we came in from. There must have been around thirty desks in the room, but some of them were missing chairs. The room had white walls but they were covered with white bulletin boards, which in turn were plastered with neat geography maps and a large calendar made from rainbow-colored paper. The wall that the desks were facing had a large smartboard on it, complete with markers and a digital eraser.


      We sat down in two desks near the only window, around six feet by six feet in area. This window was on the opposite side of the room as the smartboard. "So how did you manage to get out so early?" I asked him, and he replied, "it's all a matter of keeping the treatment visible." Whatever that meant.



      I'll be revisiting this dream goal in the future, as I'm not satisfied with the results.

    2. The Police

      This is one of my
      Five-Star Lucids


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

      This dream was pretty epic; in my opinion, it stretched the boundaries of what I can produce of my dreams.

      It began at my school. But before I go any further, I'll describe what it looks like first. The main section of the school, right when you walk in, consists of a large, long atrium with a triangular glass roof, which allows for much light to enter the school, making it fairly airy and bright. Classrooms are on the left and right of this atrium, and near the entrance there's a large set of stairs on the right, just before the classrooms begin. The main tones in the building include light beige, light eggshell blue tiles, and accents of paler turquoise, such as on the window frames and stair handles. Although I cannot recall exactly how similar the school in my dream looked compared to real life, I know it was in fact similar in some ways. It gave off the same vibe as the actual thing.

      I was in the first classroom to the left of the atrium; the room was around twenty two feet wide by twenty seven feet long. There were no desks, but there was a normal, burgundy school chair in the far corner of the room. Two of my friends were there with me; a blonde girl and a brunette, both slightly taller than I. My friends near always appear the same in my dreams, as I've been going to school with them since grade one. The blonde girl even had her glasses on, which made them even more similar. It was almost time to be dismissed, so I suppose it was nearly 3:30. Even though school was in still, we were the only people there. Perhaps the dream didn't want to use up energy, trying to fill up all the space in the school? Anyhow, this caused me to become lucid.

      Ied summon my mother at the front of the school, in her car, to pick the three of us up. Instead of being in a silver minivan like she should have had, she was in a sleek black car, designed a bit like an Infiniti. It looked realistic though, and didn't have any 'dream' distortion or features. I got in the back seat, behind the driver's seat; the blonde girl sat beside me, and the brunette got in the front beside my mother. We started driving.

      The dream skipped from this part to a new one, and now we were on a strip of road with a few business/city buildings, and there were sidewalks to either side of us. The road seemed to be a 4-lane road: it was fairly wide, but there were no parked cars. No cars except us, other than the occasional passerby. However even with this skip, I was still lucid; this was unusual, since I usually lose lucidity when that occurs. We probably drove for a minute or so, until I heard police sirens in the distance. They were slightly distorted, almost heavier-sounding, but the cars looked the same as they appeared behind us. My mother pulled over to the right side of the road and stopped the van. One police car stopped behind us, and the other behind that one. So all three cars, including us, were now lined up on the side of the road. I looked around and I could somehow 'see' through the van, and look at the two policemen getting out of the first car. The second police car seemed to be still, as if no one was in it.


      One of the men stayed behind the other. The one in front walked to the front window of our van and tapped on it. "M'am, can you step out of the vehicle?" he asked my mother. I totally did not summon that action, or the words. I figured I'd just go along with whatever the dream wanted to do, since I wasn't too lucid at the time.

      Anyways, my mom got out slowly. I could still see through the side of the van. I could also hear what the policeman was saying, as if there was nothing in between him and I, even though the windows were closed, etcetera. He asked her, "are you the one responsible for the murder of William..." I can't remember the last name. It was a fairly strange last name, and so maybe that's why I can't recall it. My mom looked through the window, still as a stone, to where I was sitting in the vehicle. The gaze almost looked questionable. I look down, suddenly getting an idea. And this is where things began to get a little weird.

      My lucidity rising again, I stepped out of the van, opening the silver door on a hinge (when in real life it would have slid open horizontally), and faced the police officer. "Leave her alone," I told him firmly and confidently. "It's my fault. Although it was an accident..." I was still not attempting to control the policeman DC, although I did sort of "expect" him to pull out a gun and shoot me. It happened pretty quickly; he pulled out a handgun from his uniform pocket and shot me. I held my hand out to shield myself, but the bullet went into my palm. I looked at it, imagining blue blood coming out, and this happened too. There wasn't a lot; it almost looked like I got a blob of navy, almost transparent jelly on my hand. The interesting thing was, that my dreams usually end when I get shot. Perhaps it was because I was able to control what happened after I got shot, that my dream didn't go black.

      By now, I was at a fairly low lucidity level, but I could still think of what to do. I decided to punch the police officer, just on a whim, to see what would happen. I punched him, and he didn't move that much, but he still recoiled. He then pulled out another gun (the first one disappeared) and shot me a few more times, but nothing happened at all. I felt small bullets hitting me on the neck, arms and stomach, but no pain and my dream still didn't fade. I felt extremely confident, and so I told him to hit the road. He backed away slowly, ran back into his car, and drove away.

      The star above us(LD;DILD)
      I am at my grandparents, guarding something in their garden with a guy. After a while my mom comes and either tells me something or she is arguing with me. A few seconds later she tells me to go to bed. I listen to her. I’m in the bed, and the room is so dark that I can’t see anything. I whisper to the other guy that a famous movie star lives one floor above us. We agree to go there and see her. When I get up the scene changes and I am in my apartment, in the bedroom. I open the door slowly. I look into the living room and when I see the door that is different from RL, I become lucid. I go towards that door. When I reach it I get scared because usually when I open a door there is a monster on the other side or anything bad will happen. I slowly open the white door, with my hand shaking. Fear strikes me at once, the fear of the unknown that could be there. I see a shadow and I wake up, sweating and scared.

      Library class(ND)
      I am inside the lecture hall of the library, standing at the PC I usually stay. There is a guy near me. I am supposed to have an IT class which I will do here. I look at his PC’s monitor and I see many icons and windows on it. They looked like some graphic/web design software. He asks me if I know how to use such software and what software would I use in the future. I say something like Flash or Dreamweaver and he says that the answer is correct. I say another app and he says it’s not correct. The librarian comes and asks her husband, which was the guy I was talking to, to give her something. I look at the screen again and I see a small square with some games running in it. I somehow jump into the game and I wake up.

      Gang race(ND)
      I see C in front of the school. I look at his hair and I see it’s long. (Gap) I am going home and I look ahead. I see lots of guys running like there a race. I start running too and I get past most of the guys. After this, I cross the street and I make a big jump over the green fence. I wake up.

      Batman(LD;DEILD)
      This looks cool. I am playing in some kind of movie. I am in a park and I see a woman standing in some kind of a little shop. I fly near it and do something I can’t recall. After a while she goes away and I fly after her. The scene changes and I have to enter inside a room to kill someone, a guy caller Alien. I look around the room. I’m scared because it looks just like a room from horror video games. The walls were red and the room itself was small. I look left and I see a closet. Inside it I can see some clothes lying around and a strange bump through the clothes. I look closely and I find a laser gun. I shoot a few beams at the closet but no one seems to be there. After searching the room I suddenly hear a voice saying “I’m here!” I look around but no one is here. I’m scared and I look up. Suddenly a monster jumped at me. I wake up. I quickly close my eyes and I imagine that I will escape the clutches of the monster and I will be outside the room. I’m inside the dream again, this time I’m pulling something out of my shoe and hurt the monster. I finally escaped. I go outside and I meet C. He says we should go home to hide from that thing. I started running really fast and then I started to fly. I am flying superman-style (actually, C told me I should fly like this) over the grey building blocks, past the green trees, in the gloomy, orange-colored surroundings. I can’t fly that well but the feeling is amazing. Sometimes I would lose altitude but I simply say “Go up!” and so I do. I land near the garages and I look up at a building block. On top of it I can see two guys dressed with Batman clothes. I know that those are the guys that are looking for me. C tells me to hurry so we can go into his flat. We finally reached the building block and we get to the first floor. I look at the doors. There are different from RL and there are only 2 where in RL there are 4. I get a bit suspicious but I’m still not lucid. I open one door and I can see 2 girl’s shadows being cast on a wall. They look hot. I and C go to them and we start the fun with the girls. After a few seconds something weird happened. My toy falls down on the ground. I pick it up and try to attach it back. I ignore this and I get dressed. This can’t be! I look out of the windows and I see a rock band in front of the block, unpacking guitars and other instruments. I get excited and I want to meet them. (lots of random unimportant details here). I see two cats and I’m afraid that the cats could actually be the two guys. (Gap) I am sitting in front of the building block. I realize that I am dreaming. I say to myself to stay calm. I slowly walk ahead and notice the surroundings. The dream starts to fade away but I remember that I should spin. At first I spun (is this the correct tense?) slow but then I’ve increased speed and I imagined that I would teleport at my school. I am still in the front of my block but there is a new building that looked like the school. I look around me and I notice the trees. They look absolutely real-like. Every leaf is there and the color is so strong. I am extremely amazed and pleased. I remember that usually the hands or fingers look weird in LD’s. I look at them but they look OK. I walk through the small alley and I reach the main street. I cross it and I get to the other side. Something is wrong... All the people that are walking around me are homeless and weird. “I want all the people to be normal again” I say to myself but that doesn’t happen. Instead, a homeless guy shakes my hand, but it actually grabs it so hard, that it breaks my bones. Everyone around is laughing. I escape his clutch and I give him a cool sidekick. From that moment, the police started chasing me. I did some cool moves to get past them and I woke up. End of dream.

      Fallen finger(ND)
      I’m sitting in my bed with my little sister. She said mom hates her and that her pinky hurts. I look at her pinky finger and I see that it’s larger than usual. I try to pull her finger. When I do this, her finger breaks and I am stuck with a pinky in my hand. I look at her hand and I can see a white piece of bone stuck out. I attach the finger back and I tell my sister to keep pressing there really hard. End of dream.

      The Play(ND)
      I am playing some role in a play on a big scene. After the show I kiss a few girls. They are amazed and they run after me. I see a big building and I hide inside. End of recall.

      “Are you a lucid dreamer?”(ND)
      I’m at school and the music class is about to begin. A new teacher comes and puts a CD of Children of Bodom to play. After the song finished playing, he said that the song was played by Children of Decadence. “You’re wrong!” I tell him and he agrees. (Gap) Another class is about to begin and on the blackboard I can see the name of the class and the name of the teacher but not the whole name but only a few letters. The teacher gets in together with some persons (probably family member) and they go inside a hall or near a staircase. The teacher has a phone and he asks me if I can give him my phone for a while. I give him the phone, he gives me his and he says he has a couple of million messages on it. I don’t know what to do until he tells me I should press the No button together with another button. I can remember that the phone was a blue Siemens and the teacher was standing somehow on a podium or something. (Gap) An old man takes some photos with the phone in a house. (Gap) Being inside the living room of my own house I feel safe. I look around and I see some people standing there. They look like they are guests. I am part of a show in which I am some kind of Benjamin Button the 2nd and a lady tries to look at me so she would recognize me. She asks me do some things and I listen to her. (Gap) A girl is leaning over a table and I can see her panties. After that she stays straight. She looks like she is Indian. I can’t remember her clothing. I look at the table near her and I see a pink notebook. I look closer and I see that there’s something written but I can’t actually read it. I look closer and I see the letters DJ. I look up at her. She looks scared. I ask her if that is her Dream Journal after which I wake up.

      Fish-eye(LD ;WILD)
      After I wake up in RL I close my eyes really quick and try to go to sleep. After a split second I see a very vivid image. It’s a crossroad near the church. I see this through a fish-eye-like effect. I wake up quickly.

      Mirror(ND)
      I have two x-rated movies. (Gap) I am in the kitchen and I am sticking my toy into a girl who sits on a pillow. I go to the bathroom and I look in the mirror. I see myself like in real-life. Then I wash my face or do something else and I look in the mirror. An obvious dream sign came after this. As I looked in the mirror, the image in the mirror showed that my head was looking to the left and then turned to match my position. I wake up after a while.

      Metin 2(ND)
      A friend told me to take care of his Metin 2 character while he is gone. (Gap) There are some monsters which kills the character. This takes place in some desert. After he is killed I wake up.

      Bath of Records(ND)
      My dad is sitting in the bath like it would be a sofa. Around him, inside the bath I see some vinyl records. I wake up.

      New Old PC(ND)
      I’ve started the PC. When I look at the monitor I see a different logon screen with two user names (I don’t have a logon screen).I go in the hall and I see my big sister, arrived from Greece. Also near her I see my PC. When I go back in the living room she says that she changed the PC with my old one (doesn’t exists). I look at the monitor and I see it’s very big, much more like a TV. I push it a little bit to the back of the wall and I wake up.

      Don’t do It!(LD;WILD)
      I am watching some guy on a construction site. He wants to jump of a big unfinished building. I know that I’m dreaming and I wake up.

      The Bus(ND)
      I’m in the sea with my mom and my sister. There are waves coming. I look around and I see that I actually am on a street in the city that is filled with water. Some of the waves splashed me in my face and left water in my mouth. I get to the shore (the sidewalk) and my mom gives me a towel. I take it but it is cold and I tell her to give me my clothes. I get dressed because I have to go home. I stand in front of a car. Inside there is a woman who tells my mom that I’ve been nice and quiet during the road there and she hopes that I would be the same on the road back. I look at my back and I see three blue big buses filled its passengers. I turn back my head and the car is starting. I get in and try hard to hold on the window. After a few seconds my mom helps me and I get in. I am in a bus and in the back I can hear the ticket checker talking or singing in the back. I look at my left and I see an empty seat and I assume it’s the appraiser’s. I look out of the front window and I see that the driver is making some kind of tour. I see lots of smoke coming from the ground and from some buildings. It seems that I am in a desert or so because there is a lot of sand and a few buildings that look like small houses. As I get near the smoke, I see that a smoke grenade causes it. The bus gets past a hole in the ground and then runs over a building, breaking it. I am scared but he says it’s OK. After this I wake up and go back to sleep again right away. Then the next thing happened:

      Crowbar (LD; WILD)
      I open my eyes for a second, and then go back to sleep. I enter right away in a dream in which I am in my bed, just waking up. I can still somehow feel my real body. So I am conscious in both “worlds”. In the dream world I say that I’m dreaming and I hit my little sister which was near me with a crowbar and I wake up, this time for real.

      Down the Hill(ND)
      I’m participating in some kind of weird contest. I have to collect as many apples or balls I can. I am the leader and I am going downhill which is very abrupt. I manage to reach the other side and I see many trees and vegetations. I am participating with/against several girls. End of recall.

      The Life Tree(ND)
      I’m at my grandparents, in the garden, near or in the improvised WC. There are 2 more guys near me. The inside is different. It’s like another world in it. IN the air it’s a small tree, without leafs and a few branches and we’ve called it the tree of immortality or something like this. Whoever took a branch lived forever or something. We are doing some ritual. I take one branch which looks like a baseball bat. I am running with it downhill, through the corn and then on raw ground. There was a girl somewhere but I can’t remember where exactly.

      In the Mansion(LD; DILD)
      Note: This is my first dream ever in which I’ve made a Reality Check and lasted more than 5 seconds!
      I am going home on the road towards the water stream. I look up and I see bi8g stormy clouds coming. I look behind and I see my little sister. I tell her to hurry. The wind blows strong but the context or scene changes a bit. I am with my 2 best friends. We are walking past one’s block and we are talking about dreaming and/or lucid dreaming. We are supposed to go on the roof of my block to watch or study something related to dreaming. I enter the block, climb the stairs to the first floor and I notice that the doors are not as they should be. They are all metallic and different. This happens every time in my dream so I’ve got a little suspicious. I climb up the stairs to the next floor and it’s dark so I can’t see anything but I continue walking until I reach the second floor. I look at the doors and I realize that I’m dreaming. I remained calm so I won’t lose lucidity. For the first time I’ve done a Reality Check. I pressed my thumb against my other hand. It failed but I still knew that I was dreaming. I’ve done the nose RC and I could simply breathe through my closed nostrils. I said to me that I am safe, because I am in my bed and this is a dream. I wanted to make the hand RC again. When I pressed my thumb against my palm, the spot where I’ve pressed became numb and I had a strange sensation, but it still hasn’t worked instead I had a scar of the shape of my nail which actually hurt a little. I look around and I see that I am alone. Ahead of me I see some carpets on the ground. I think about a hot classmate of mine and wish it to be there. But as soon as I think this I wake up, and I was starring at the bedroom table. I don’t remember If I’ve done any RC to make sure it was not a False Awakenings (never had one) but I guess I’ve did because I’ve wrote my dream.

    9. House's Cure

      by , 06-09-2010 at 05:53 PM
      Type: DILD.
      Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
      Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

      I found this experience to be short-lived, but I was able to complete one of my dream goals easily.

      I was in the basement with my dad, my papillion named Cheemo, and Greg House. The basement consisted of beige walls, and a tan stone fireplace covering an entire wall. There was also a green couch and a 50-inch television. I'm not sure why House was there, but apparently I called him over to our house so he could take a look at my dog, even though he only specialized in diagnosing human illnesses. Cheemo was balding in a few patches on his body, even though he was only two years old.

      Immediately I became lucid.

      I asked, "can you cure our dog?", hoping to provoke some sort of stupid answer. He leaned forward and picked up Cheemo. Since the dog had long fur, he just brushed it over top of the bald spots and said, "there, he's cured," in a House-esque way.


      After I rolled my eyes at him the dream skipped a bit, and I was no longer lucid. My father and I were still downstairs, and I was now holding a camera, one of those big Nikon ones. I laid down on the ground and attempted to take a photo of Cheemo, but he growled and snapped at the camera, breaking it. Then the dream slowly faded.

      Note: My first LD since I’ve wrote this journal!
      I’m saying to myself: “If I was dreaming, I would fly around and watch the sky and the ground.” I am actually doing so. I am floating in place. It’s a beautiful landscape. On the ground I can see the very green grass and trees. I look at the sky which is of a very bright blue. Everything was extremely vivid. I focus on the sky at the horizon and try to see how real this dream can… Hey, I’m dreaming! Everything became more real than real life. After a few seconds of lucidity and excitement, I start losing altitude and the dream began to fade. I remember that I have to spin and/or rub my hands but I couldn’t do this because I was in the air. The dream faded completely and I woke up.

      I took a nap after some spontanous reading in Exploring the world of lucid dreaming and dreamt about a DEILD, Im sure not I actully had one or if I was already dreaming.. but the lucidity was real!


      For some reason I became aware that I was lying down and already in the early stages of SP, I could feel my body but couldnt hear any external sounds or recognize in any way that I was in a couch. Vibrations began and some humming sound could be heard while my body slowly started floating and I began seeing HI. I started reluctantly think bad thoughts and that something scary would appear but I tried to resist it and a picture of myself as a kid showed up which made me peaceful again and I entered the dream.

      My sisters were sitting next to me as I had fully entered the dream in some kind of luxury hotel. I said hi and quickly moved on. I figured I'll go to the moon since I had been reading about shared dreaming on the moon recently. There were a few doors nearby so I just thought of the moon and made a kramer like entrance. I was very happy when I saw the desolate gray ground and starry sky, but it wasn't desolate at all as I looked a bit to the left. There was quite a few people standing by a lit up swimming pool, there was some kind of party on the moon. My friend showed up with a skateboard near the building that I just walked out of, I said hi to him and went on into another luxury building nearby. I thought of who I'd try to contact, I decided with Axel since we have the same time zone. (Here I failed to realize I was taking a nap thus making the timezones irrelevant).

      There was alot of young people in the building, all dressed in ballroom clothes. My lucidity lowered a bit here when I saw all these beatiful girls but I snapped out of it and promised myself I wouldn't waste this LD on sex. So I just quickly grabbed someones breast and moved on. To ensure I wouldn't lose lucidity or the dream I kept rubbing my hands together a bit now and then. While I was walking I saw a guitar on the wall and figured since I cant play in waking life I should try in a dream. I had to do somekind of flip jump to reach it, it fell down and I started playing. First it sounded pretty good but not too long after I became as bad as I am in waking life. Still wanting to find someone in this crowded moon prom party I thought of using a cellphone to contact and right then my cellphone started ringing, I reached for it in my pocket but woke up. I was in the beginning of SP again, slow vibrations began but they stopped quickly and I woke up for real.

      Beach party with Moses!!

      Rating : ★★★★☆

      Date : 3rd June, 2010



      I was on a beach party. The beach looked exactly like the image above, but there was also a cute little wooden beach house. I was along with five of my friends. All of us were in swim suits. I looked at mine. The were knee high drawstring trousers or something, colored blue, with a white image of a palm tree.
      There were really fierce waves. I mean REALLY fierce. The wind was strong enough to pull us out of course, and the waves rose more than five meters high. It was a cloudy day, but the sun's rays were just visible through the gaps in the clouds.
      I could hear a far off seagull's cry. We started to play beach volleyball, but the wind was too fierce and would cause the ball to go astray. Somehow, all of us found that extremely funny. We started to laugh, hard. We were laughing without stopping, without any particular reason except the ball's going off course. We laughed so much that it started to hurt my stomach, and tears came into my eyes. Finally, we hiccuped ourself to silence. Spontaneously, out of nowhere,
      I became lucid. Perhaps it was due to the fact that I live in a city in the middle of the desert, and that we rarely get such strong waves along the coast line. Whatever, now is not the time to wonder WHY I became lucid.
      There wasn't really much scenery there for me to stabilize, but I did it anyways. I used all of my senses, including activating the sense of taste by tasting some sea water. When the dream was stable enough, I spun in a circle and rubbed my hands. The clarity was already pretty good, so it didn't have that much effect. But the experience was life like, or perhaps even more vivid than real life.
      I walked around. I did not want to do something too exciting early in a dream, a golden rule of mine that works like a miracle. I used to instantly start smashing up stuff but it killed my lucid dreams, and not long after I learned my lesson and became more patient.
      I walked up to my friends. One of them, a guy, said, "Hey, see those waves, Max? They seem pretty big. Think we will get a sale on those?"
      Another one, a girl, replied, "Yeah right, everyone knows that summer sales are only on laptops. Besides, where are you gonna stash a surfing bear in that apartment of yours?"
      "Hey," he replied, "at least it's not as big as your belly, it doesn't need an acupuncture every half hour."
      I was laughing hard, again. But for the fear of losing my lucidity to their one-of-a-kind conversation, I intruded and said, upon suddenly remembering, "Guys, do you know where Moses is? The one who parted the sea?"
      Every one started to gape at me, like I was mad or something. Another girl said, "Like. duh! Don't you know that he is on vacation in Hawaii right now? Man, you gotta buy some fashion magazines, you know that?"
      "HUH?! Moses, the spiritual kinda guy, in a fashion magazine?! Are you kidding me?"
      They all start to look at me weirdly again.
      "Anyways, tell me which direction is Hawaii."
      They look at me in even more surprise.
      "Dude, this IS Hawaii."
      "Ah, I see. So then where is Moses?"
      "He is on the clearing around the forest. He was helpin' lil' kids to cross the ocean, you know. To make sure they don't fall into the clams at the bottom."
      "Okay, thanks for the info."
      I use the rope method to pull myself toward the end of the forest. I feel a tug around my waist, and I quickly transport to there. Then, I start to run, looking for Moses.
      WHOOOSH!!! A loud sound came up from ahead of me. The ground started to rumble. The wind suddenly became a heck of a lot faster. I actually had to use telekinesis on myself, imagining me glued to the ground, to avoid flying away with the wind.
      Then, the whole sea in front of me split apart.



      Wait, wasn't there a condition? Shit. Wait up!! WAIT A FUCKIN' SECOND!!!
      I snapped my fingers, and stopped time. I did that by imagining a movie being paused. Everything became perfectly skill, and a little blurred, or shadowed. I had suddenly remembered that Moses need to part the Reed sea, not jut any random beach.
      I tried a trick I had never done before. I concentrated any summoned a large banner that could be poked in the ground. But before writing anything, I did a reality check, stabilized more, and rubbed my hands again. I am taking no chances.
      I use my finger to write something up. But I see that I have written a jumble of random words that make no sense. No matter.
      I cause the letters to morph and re arrange themselves, something like Tom Riddle (Voldemort) does in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The words now read, "Welcome to REED sea!"
      Not exactly what I wanted, but it was good enough. I planted it in the ground, and believed what it said.
      I unfroze time. Now, the sea was blood red. Maybe something related to the similarity between "Reed" and "red".



      Oh well, as long as it's a sea. The sea in now completely parted. Great! There goes another task of the year!
      But, Moses seemed to be having some trouble keeping it parted like that. Don't know why, buyt I went there to help him.
      I was standing on sand, which was supposed to the ocean bed. I built an invisible wall on both sides to keep the water from flowing in.
      "Whew!" , said someone near to me. It was Moses! He was in a white robe, with his hood down so I couldn't see his face. He was also wearing a golden armor on one hand.
      "Thanks for the help, kiddo. You could become a better Moses than me."
      "No problem. Tell me, do you only go around parting seas and stuff?"
      "No, but I am famous for it. Say, do you want a new dream guide?"
      "Huh?!"
      "Yeah, I came here to become your dream guide."
      "Sorry, but I already have one."
      "Oh, that vampire brat?"
      "Yeah."
      "But I am much greater than her. I can show you the mysteries of universe. I can lead you to the divine. I can make you spiritual. Your dreams will be the strong hold of good."
      "Wow! Thats amazing. Leona never did that. Can you really do that stuff?"
      "Of course I am. Who do you think I am?"
      "Right. But the me something. Can you fight?"
      "No, I am a good guy."
      "Can you kill monsters?"
      "No."
      "Can you turn into a vampire?"
      "No."
      "Are you a hot young lady?"
      "No, of course not! But that doesn't mean I am.........pleasurable." (PS sorry if anyone was offended by this, but as you know, it was just a dream, nothing else.)
      "Sorry, but I am totally into women. Tell me one last thing."
      "Yeah?"
      "Do you know how to pilot combat space ships?"
      "No, I don't."
      "Sorry then, but you are just not my type. I will stick with Leona for now though. Come once in a while to give me some of that divine experience of yours, will ya?"
      "Ah, that Leona. That mother fuc**ng bitc*h $/&^#!!!!!!"
      "Whoa there! You're Moses. You are not suppose to curse like that. Only teenagers can do that."
      "This is the 21st century, dude. So long, bi*ch!"
      He disappears into thin air. Oh well. I have to wake up now, before I forget the task of the year. I force my real eyes open, something I can do even since I was not lucid dreaming, and wake up.



      Oh and by the way, my exams have finished. They went real good. I am expecting at least an A in all of my O'level exams. Now I will regularly update my DJ. More dreams to come soon! ^_^

    13. Zombie Slaughter and Meditating. :D

      by , 06-09-2010 at 04:42 PM (LUCIDMAX's max lucids!)
      Sorry for the late updates, guys. It's just that I am currently very busy with my IGCSE exams. I still have two more lucid dreams in my paper DJ that I haven't typed yet.

      Zombie Slaughter!! And other cool stuff.

      Rating : ★★★☆☆

      Date : 1st June, 2010



      I was somehow inside a haunted mansion. The building was really old, perhaps a century or two. There was a large, open area in the middle of the mansion, where there should have been an indoor pool. Perhaps it was not dug up yet.



      My vision was third person. I saw me, my friend, and another guy I don't know, enter the clearing through a large, shiny bronze gate. We came inside, and started to look around. I saw myself touching the wallpaper of the place, feeling it up. Then, I felt this weird sensation on the back of my neck. The atmosphere of the dream changed. I am sure you all know the creepy feeling when a nightmare's about to start.
      Suddenly, I heard a gushing voice. Then, all of the paths leading out of the place were blocked by heavy iron gates, the kind you see on old metal safes. We all started to panic, and began to run here and there, pounding the doors and trying with all our might to escape. But it was useless.
      The 'gushing' sound grew louder. Then, out of nowhere, water began to pile up. The depth of the water was increasing fast. With nowhere to run, we were going to drown!



      I begin frantically pushing here and there, desperate for a means of escape. No use. I lost consciousness.


      I woke up. I tried to FILD, according to my usual habit, but I was too tired to stay conscious, and drifted back to sleep.

      I was inside a van, along with a detective party. We were investigating a case about a murder that had occurred a few nights ago in a mansion. We were heading towards it.
      We were on a road that was on a cliff. The cliff was very steep, practically vertical. It was very narrow, but we managed to get the van through. The road seemed to be endless. It was very dark, like mid-night. There were no street lamps, or any illumination of any kind whatsoever. Not even the moon, nor the stars. We could only see a little ahead of us due to our head lights, but that was it. Aside for the area that the feeble lamps and the few lights inside of the van were illuminating, everything was pitch-black.



      No one cared about it, though. We were all having a great time, drinking beer and singing songs along the way. Nobody was driving the vehicle. It was moving on it's own, finding it's own way along the dangerous path.
      Again, the atmosphere changed. We all sensed it. We stopped singing, and held our breaths to listen. A lone wolf's howl, and the screeching of bats. Aside from that, there was dead silence.
      The van suddenly stopped. What the heck was wrong with it? One of our group decided to check it out. We all warned him about the road being haunted, but he just gave us a thumbs-up and stepped outside. We all saw him go the the front of the car. He opened the hood, still smiling. He had a cigarette in his mouth.
      The hood of the van blocked him from view. We hear him doing this and that under the hood for a while. Then, suddenly, there is a whoosh sound, a moving shadow, then silence again. Now, we couldn't hear that guy who went outside.
      We were wondering what happened. We decided to go out and check what was wrong. Five of us got down, and went to the van's front.
      There was no one there. The only thing there was that guy's cigarette, nothing else.
      Suddenly, we hear a lot of sounds, like some one, or something, is coming. The sounds kept getting louder and louder. Now, there was also a deep moaning alongside it, a moan of pain, fear and regret. It was the most hideous sound I have ever heard.
      Out of the dark shadows, figures start to crawl in. Realizing what was going on, I shouted to all of the group to quickly get inside the car. We all scrambled inside, locked the doors, and closed the windows. There were heavy steel bars around the windows, so they could not be broken easily. The whole van was also pretty tough, so there was no chance that anyone, or perhaps anything, could come inside.
      We waited with our breaths held, looking at the figures that were slowly coming into view. Finally, we started to clearly see them. All of them, each and every single one, was a disgusting zombie.
      There were about thirty of them. They all started to cram around the car, clawing at the windows' bars and the gates.
      We were trapped, inside a car that couldn't move, without food or water, and best of all, surrounded by zombies.
      One particularly terrifying zombie managed to get his face through the gap the the bars, and was biting it the thick glass window, which happened to be nearest to me. I could see his face in perfect detail. He had blood all over him.
      Wait a minute, what THE hell is going on? Stuck inside a van with a bunch of strangers? Detective? Me? On a highway? And, what's more, looking at the face of a person who should right now be begging for ambulance?

      I became lucid. Man, my awareness is getting crappy! It took me a lot more time to realize that I am dreaming than usual. Oh well, at least I got lucid.
      I waited a while for the dream to stabilize. I started using my senses, touching here and there, concentrating on the sounds and smelling the air. It reeked remarkably of blood.
      I rubbed my hands. Just to raise awareness, I kept chanting under my breath, "This is a dream."
      This helped me keep my awareness. Slowly, I started to move my whole body. It was functioning okay, no problems. Good.
      While still chanting my mantra, I looked at the face of the zombie again. A while ago, I was filled with dread. Now, it became comical. I laughed at how he was pitifully biting the glass window he could not hope to penetrate.
      I smashed open the window, grabbed his head, and threw him away. He went flying a long way.
      The landscape had changed. I was on a grassy plain, or rather, a grassy hill. I was on the top of it, surrounded by zombies. I thought of summoning my sword, turning into a vampire, or using magic. But no, I was bored by these old fashioned techniques. Though they were immensely powerful, I wanted to do something else this time.
      I imagined a heavy machine gun. I looked in my pocket, and pulled out a small model of it. I looked away from it, expecting it to be life-size when I look back. I was successful. I now had a pretty heavy duty machine gun in my hand.



      Laughing like a maniac, I opened fire. It was great. The machine gun's firepower was awesome. They were falling like hell, but they kept on coming. I blasted apart each and every one of them. A good thing to try to relive stress.
      I constantly fired for about three or four minutes. When I stopped, all of them were down, blasted by innumerable bullets.
      I stabilized my dream again, calming myself down and looking here and there. The scenario had changed again. I was on top of a snow mountain. There was a really strong blizzard going on. I couldn't see very far due to the snow. It was all pure white. Such a beautiful scenery could not possibly exist. I was completely mesmerized by it.
      I went into a shallow cave. It was dry and warm. I could see the view outside. I couldn't believe it. Having lived in a desert all my life, I wished to go to a place like this. It was all so real. So calm. So peaceful. You wouldn't think that I was the guy who was killing zombies with a maniacal laugh just a few minuted ago. ^_^



      Since I was so relaxed and at ease, I thought of trying something that I have been wanting to do for a long time. I stabilized my dream again, and raised my awareness by doing extra RCs, too. I did not want to wake up in the middle.
      I sat down, and started to meditate. I cleared my mind of all thought. I calmed myself down further. Deep breaths. Peace of mind. I tried to leave all of my worries and problems behind. It felt really great, to do something like this once in a while.
      I closed my eyes, to relax myself even more. But I kept using my other senses, to stay in the dream. I felt a kind of buzzing sensation. It was quite pleasant. Nothing like I have ever felt in real life.
      I opened my eyes, and got a real shock. The landscape was not around me anymore. Actually, there was NOTHING around me anymore. I was floating in a void, but it was not black. It was pure white. It's whiteness was dazzling my eyes. I felt as if there was no gravity there, because I was freely suspended in air. The place had no end, no roof, nor floor. Just an endless expanse of space.
      I looked here and there, but all I saw was the same never-ending whiteness. I 'forgot' that I existed in real life, rather, it was as if I really 'live in my dream world, and that it's not just some temporary thing.
      Some kind of invisible force lifted me up. I could feel a kind of pulling sensation, as I moved toward the non-existent sky. I was surprised, but I was not scared. It did not feel as if a single negative emotion existed in this world.
      Suddenly, I was bathed in a bright golden light. It was warm. I could feel a sense of exhilaration. It was amazing. I also heard a strange melody. Not like anything I have heard before. I got very excited. I felt a kind of a vibrating sensation. It was all so strange, but, it was pleasant. It was something I cannot put in words, no matter how hard I try.
      The vibration [got more intense, as did the exhilaration. I was too naive, perhaps, for I woke up soon after that.

      That was my first time meditating in an LD. I have practiced meditating before IRL, but not in an LD. After having an experience like this, I am going to try it more often. I didn't know that it was this cool!

    14. Playing with fire. Task of the year.

      by , 06-09-2010 at 04:40 PM (LUCIDMAX's max lucids!)
      How to make fire ; A tutorial by me. ^_^



      Rating : ★★★☆☆

      I was shopping outside with some of my friends. We were all going to a certain shop in the distance. The streets were quite busy with passersby. I noticed that one of my friends was wearing a black tee shirt. Seeing this, I did a reality check. I pinched my nose, and found that I could still breathe!
      I become lucid. I stabilized my dream by rubbing my hands. The vision was life-like, and my lucidity was also very high. I looked around for stuff to do, and remembered the Task of the Year. I might as well try to teach those primate humans how to make fire. I walked into a large mall, thinking how to go to that era, and viola! A whole forest was in front of me. There were tall, dense trees all around me. I walked ahead, and after a while, I came to a lake. It was so peaceful and beautiful here. There were all sort of weird plants near the lake.
      I spotted some monkey-like humans nearby. Good. I come near them. They seem to be scared of me. I yell out to them , "Hey! I am Max! Who are you guys?"
      They replied, but in a strange language that I could not even begin to comprehend. What the heck. I guessed they wouldn't know how to make fire. I decided to try it.
      I took a few twigs, and some flint stones that happened to be sitting nearby. I rubbed them together, and sparks flew out of it.
      But the twigs didn't like up. Shit. This is taking too long. I use magic, and just used my fire ability to light up the twigs.
      They were really surprised. The were scared to come close to the fire. But one of them bravely came up, and touched it. He yelled in pain. Seeing this, the other primates started playing with fire too.
      One of them picked up a burning twig, and started to wave it in the air. All of the others did the same.
      It was really amusing, watching them do this. Then a burning twig fell from the hands of one of the guys, and the grass caught fire. In an instant, the fire spread out to the whole forest, as if it was all kerosene or something.



      They all started to shout out excitedly, as if they has never seen a fire before. There were really happy smiles on their faces. They spread out, each in a different direction, and started to chase the still spreading fire. Then they started to make little fires of their own, shooting out fireballs and lighting up trees. I was standing by, watching them play with fire.


      Thats the last thing I remember, because I probably lost lucidity here, watching the whole scene.
    15. Some fragments.

      Date : 27th May, 2010

      I had a short false-awakening. I realized after waking up from a dream that I was still in it. I got up, and started to look around. I was in my room. It was pitch dark. I tried to find my way out, but there was no door where it should have been. After messing around for a while, I give up. I was about to blast apart the whole building, but then I woke up.


      Date : 28th May, 2010

      Another very short lucid. I tried to FILD. I entered SP really slowly. Then, I entered dream state. But my eyes were stuck half-way. It was like seeing half reality and half dream. I tried to force my eyes open, but they wouldn't budge. I caught a glimpse of my 'dream' room, but nothing else. My eyes were too heavy too open, and I fell asleep again.
