lucid

I woke up noticing that I was inside a hot tub set in a living room. I got out and flew, phasing through a window to go outside into a backyard. I found a nice open area and put my hand behind my back to summon an orca. I felt one, turned around and it was there, a nice full sized one. I got on its back and told it to go to the ocean. Once we got moving, I tried putting my hands in my pockets but found I couldn't ride the orca and put my hands in my pockets at the same time. I got off the orca and put my hands in my pockets. I woke up.

(DEILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I woke up 5hours after going to bed for my WBTB. I read some posts on DV and then watched some Underworld videos (mostly werewolf/lycan transformations). I went to bed and practiced MILD and WILD.

I fell asleep, had a nonLD, and started waking up. I held still and felt SP.

I found myself in my bed. I sat up and did a RC. I walked to my door, opened it, and saw Tonka lying on the hallway. I pet him for a bit and then walked downstairs. Tonka was also downstairs, but he looked older and more sick. I rubbed my hands to stabilize my dream. I walked to my backyard door and phased through it. Once again, Tonka was outside, this time he was missing pieces of skin around his paws and looked in pain. I took off but for some reason I started accelerating upwards really fast, and the dream crashed.

I held still and waited about a minute. I was seeing images from a 3rd person POV. I thought I wouldn't be able to transition into a dream. I kept seeing images and then managed to somehow plug my non-existent nose.

This gave me a body and sent me to my dream bed. I stood up, walked downstairs, and exited through the front door. It was daytime. I took off and started flying. I wanted to find a Vampire's Mansion; I wanted to fight a Vampire that defeated me years ago in a dream/nightmare, and this time I would bring a Lycan army. I was flying at the speed of light, everything was distorted. I stopped and there was forest on all directions below me. I landed, and was met by Eric. We started running at high speed through the forest, dodging trees, jumping over cliffs, over trees. Suddenly Eric slipped and was impaled by a big branch. I told him I would heal him, but he told me to save my power for the fight. I asked him what I should do and he told me to continue down one path. I was asking him what he thought of Shared Dreaming, but his body vanished.

I reached a village and was met by a big guy who looked like Khal Drogo. He was blaming me for kidnapping his daughter. The guy transformed into an Orc






We were in a fighting pit, his tribe came on to watch, cheering for him. I partially transformed into a werewolf. My fingernails grew into sharp claws, and my canines into sharp fangs. My skin turned grey and I grew a lot of body hair. My face and overall shape however, stayed relatively the same. He ran towards me and I leaped over him. He was strong and heavy, but faster than I thought for his size. He grabbed a club and charged towards me once again. I dodged it, rolled towards him, and sliced his hamstring ligaments behind his knee. He screamed in anger and pain and kept charging at me. I kept dodging back and then leaped on him, and bit his neck. I pulled back and ripped open his throat. His tribe started charging towards me and I ran away. They were catching on to me, so I took off and started flying.

I reached a city, it was night time. I landed on the street behind a gas station. I still needed to find the Vampire's mansion. I thought of the competition and wondered if I had even scored any points.

Spoiler for Sex :

I reached a house, I went in and Daenerys was there. We went into a washroom and had sex.

I came out of the house and the dream started crashing. I was once again in 3rd person view, and woke up.

Dream starts of me standing on a sidewalk of unknown location. For some reason instant lucidity happens. I cant make out street names or store front names but i notice a woman with black long hair staring at me. She seemed friendly to me since she had a grin and i felt the rushing need to blurt out to her, "whats your name?" and to my surprise she answered back, "brenda". I then awoke and quickly wrote her name down. Dream guide or just a fluke?

Night 5

had a fairly lengthy but bland dream. I was in my 8th grade history class and everyone was naked, except me. Class seemed to be going on normally, though. The teacher was giving a lecture, and we were all taking notes. He kept telling me to stop being distracted by everyone being naked with a very serious tone in his voice.

Marcus came in (also naked) and said something about the dream failing to allow anyone to wear clothes. He then walked over to the teachers desk and made a valiant effort to craft undergarments out of computer paper and scotch tape.

-+-

I think this was actually from the 3rd or 4th night of the comp and I just forgot to document it. There was a dream where I false-awoke. In the dream, I had a very long beard, reaching about halfway down my body. I tried to shave it but it perpetually regrew in new and strange ways. The dream went on for a few minutes.

Night 6

I am attending Hogwarts. (I knew a HP dream would show up eventually, since I've been reading through the books.) However it was disguised as my middle school. I remember they were having a beginning of the year celebration. Apparently I had been sorted into house Hufflepuff and, for whatever reason, we had to sleep outside on the lawn. They gave us yellow and black stripey scarfs that were really big and could be used as blankets.

There were some people running around the running track. (In-Dream, it was across the road from the middle school, instead of next to it, and I think there were quidditch goals set up at either, too.) People wanted me to run a race but the other people already had a head start. I started running anyway and (shame I wasn't lucid for comp points) went super fast. So fast I remember I would have a hard time turning tight enough around the bends in the track.

It was getting to be nighttime and Dubledore came outside (He looked like a combo of dumbledore and my old Middle School principal.) He magically created a small carnival with a mini Ferris wheel taking up about half the field for us to celebrate. He also inadvertently created a forest of large oak trees filling the other half of the carnival. He said he might as well leave them there since they were not hurting anything and they were magically linked to the carnival so he'd have to clean up both of them anyway when the field needed to be used once more.

I sat down under one of the oak trees and did a moon RC. I looked at the moon (it was full.) and looked down at the grass. When I looked back it was crescent shaped and the stars were brighter and more vivid. I became lucid, but I didn't think of my goals so I obviously wasn't too lucid. I just decided to fly around. (I think I was trying to impress some girl that I had met in an earlier dream by flying, but either I just saw her out of the corner of my eye or she didn't even notice.) In fact, nobody noticed at all when I took off. (I presume because this was a gathering at a magical school.) It took some forceful voice commands to get above altitude, and I remember seeing the spot where I took off, leaving a spinning orange/blue fire circle that expanded outward and faded as I flew away. I took off and hovered above the central area of the fair, examined my fire jets. The effect wasn't too flashy this time around. The whole dream was foggy.

Due to forgotten lucid goals and generally not putting enough effort into this recently, I flipped upside down and hovered on a jet from one hand, and spun around like a top for no reason whatsoever. My phone buzzed in my pocket and then fell out because I was upside down. I had to dive and catch it right before it fell to the ground. I really scared this older woman who looked sort of like my maternal grandmother but with darker skin and a whole lot fatter when I flew down right in front of her face. I caught my phone in one hand and propelled myself back up to my original altitude with the other.

I answered it. On the other end was who I presume was Marcus and he told me in a rather irritated tone of voice to stop calling my fire jets 'fire jets' that they are actually fire rockets because they can work in outer space. He then said that theoretically I should have the ability to shoot fireballs that home in on targets and explode when they hit, if I practiced more. I lost the dream abruptly.

WBTB

I revisited the scene. I was at the track with the oak trees and the carnival, but nobody else besides us were there now. Lapis Lazuli from Steven Universe was there and we were laying on the grass stargazing together. The stars were even more vivid and bright this time.

I went to bed about at 23:30. I was very tired. I would have liked to meditate but i relaxed lying in bed. I fell asleep at 3:40. Late but all the time i was relaxing the body, so i had a good night of rest. I woke up at 8:55 and i dreamt with:

I was on a field with some other people and there was a barn. Past the barn there was a field full of straw. It was probably like 10 miles like that... or more. However there was a sniper that would shoot us if we walked on that straw. So... as soon as we passed the barn we just jumped to the ground, and if he shooted us then ok, if he didn't very good. He didn't shoot, maybe he didn't saw us or wasn't quick enough. We were looking for a diamond in all that straw.
Then Joako, Fede and another guy approach me to mock how i played football. I get angry but i was powerless... Then i hear him spreading rumours about me with a taxi driver, and although i would let that pass because i don't really care i said the taxi driver that it wasn't true (actually i think this is better action than let it pass, but still not caring). I saw the transportist that took me from school to my house when i was at highschool so i decided to leave with him. I opened the front door, but there was Sofia and Lucia. So i went at the back. Then i saw that also Victoria L was also there. I wasn't going with Noel anymore so i worried about how i was going to pay to him (i recalled a lot of times he "saved me" in my dreams... so i would have to pay all that. I wanted to pay all that. Also i would like to be more self-reliable from now on, either walking or taking a bus, or being lucid). As we were going out of school i saw Fede standing in the street, so i take my arm out the window and slap him in the forehead. Nobody saw me, not even him probably. But immediately after i did that i regretted it. Victoria asked for internet password and although i didn't know it i gave it to them.

Then i had a false awakening. I was on the kitchen and saw a kg of flour, which actually i know there wasn't (in the dream apparently my sister bought it), and some scons. I ate the scons. Then i don't remember anything else.

Then i got up. Went to the bathroom (it was 9AM) and went to the kitchen. Right then i realized i have had a FA before. I checked if that was a dream but it wasn't. I ate some peanuts, drank some milk. Then drank some water and went to bed to try WILD. This lasted about 5 minutes.

So i lied in bed and started relaxing the body with the breaths. At first i just watched the breath, particularly how it felt in the head. Then i started counting as i was relaxing. Then i thought i was relaxed enough to sleep, that maybe i could fall asleep at any moment. I counted up to 30 and i felt that i could dive at any moment, but i reminded myself to still keep counting and forget of actively diving. Then i turned to my right side and started again, watching my breath and counting. I don't remember if i counted, and if i did i counted up to 20. I tried to remain aware the whole process but also knew i had to let sleeping occur. So i fell asleep and didn't experience any HI or sleep paralysis, vibrations, sounds... i just went straight to a dream. As soon i was in the dream i knew it was a dream, but also i didn't believe it so much because it could just collapse at any moment, because i was aware of my body lying at bed. So in the dream i was in my home city, Rio Cuarto, in front of Saint Francisco Church. It was at night. I thought of getting involved in the dream to let it unfold and so gain lucidity later when the dream was completely formed. BAD IDEA. I thought that if i didn't do anything the dream would just collapse, but getting involved in the dream as if it were a nonlucid it was just plainly a bad idea, at least do it lucidly! that's what WILDs are for! Well... i wasn't too logical at that moment. So i headed in front of the church, coming from a supermarket (that supermarket might be like 6 blocks away, but in the dream it seemed like 2 blocks). And i had 2 bags full of groseries and one bag with a box of shoes. The bag of groseries were so heavy that one of the bags was about to fall to the ground. So i grabbed it differently, and they were definitely lighter when i put them at the height of my chest. Then i just put the bags in the shoe bag. And at this moment a memory of awareness came again, that it was a dream, but i let that go... Then i start hearing canticles from the church saying "The inmortal is always with me/us. The inmortal won't let you go...". It was a christian church, and i just decided that it was time to leave. Then next to the church there was a bar, and my father was there drinking a beer or something in the street. He tells me "It would "good" (or interesting) to hear the song from a psychological point of view". I reacted like being angry because i wouldn't like to hear that song! I heard Christian songs before and they make no sense to me, so i wouldn't hear this one. I replied something like "why would i hear a song of another religion than mine?" although that question was vague, i could have had replied something better, wiser, more open. But i felt tired in the dream... like if i had duties... I was carrying 3 bags and i just have forgotten that it was a dream and that i could simply put the bags on the ground and forget about them, or donate the things of whatever... Well I think i need more resolve, and more practice. Then i woke up and recorded the canticle. Then i thought about it and i was sure that they referred to "god", but then i thought it from the point of view of Buddhism and the inmortal refers actually to nibbana, and some monks that share some of their experiences said that they experienced a happiness, a tranquility that hasn't left from the time they experienced it, be it 4 years, 40 years or whatever (Ajaan Liem and Ajaan Maha Boowa). So i felt relieved by this and felt glad having dreamt with this when i woke up. It was a christian church and i know their path doesn't aim nibbana, but since there aren't any buddhist temples in Argentina (just one Zen temple i think, and some Dojos of Tibetan Buddhism in BSAS) i interpret it that a message of Buddhism could have come from a church.

This dream lasted about 20 minutes, so i could have tried a DEILD or something like that. But i didn't felt like it. I also thought it would be ideal to wake up since i was rested. But i didn't. Maybe i would have a long dream in which i could become lucid. I slept for about 3 hours, almost 4 and lying in my chest.

I dream being in "casa tia" (a supermarket).
I don't have time for the act.
I am in a river and there are jaguars there. However i didn't get hurt. This was in alpacorral (and looked like Santa Rosa)
I am in a playhouse (pelotero) and there are some mattresses. We were at some height. If we fell we were going to get eaten by some animals and die. There were people thrown there.

Then i decide to go homeless. My family was together, and they were in a car. They were wealthy but i thought they might be fools for that, being blinded by money. So i left home. I went to a Buddhist temple in Alpacorral (there isn't any) and asked for a room there. They gave me a room, and it was completely empty. It was fine for me, since i like to sleep on the floor (although i usually put something not to feel cold. I dont mind hardness). They were doing chanting and i didn't want to get involved so i just went to this room. There was a small Buddha statue in the front wall however. I thought what to do now, i had no future at all... and i was free. I thought about meditating but maybe i just could not focus because of the chanting next door. So i knew i had with me a bag with medicine. I open it and saw many different pills and a small metal box. I open it and it had nails: a copper nail an iron nail and another nail (maybe silver). It was to put it on the bones of the fingers Then i woke up.

My recall is vague and disjointed. This had been a thing for the past few days, but hopefully things will get better once I fix my sleep cycle.

I recall being in some sort of manor with walls of wood. There is a wall of concrete, which has a window on it leading to a room inside the manor. I try to open the window but the entire thing detached, leaving a square hole in the wall.

Going into the hole, I find myself in an underground slum, with the ceilings made out of metal and machinery, the walls made out of scrap, and the ground is made out of paved concrete. The hole had turned into a metal door. The place is a long, cramped hallway, with openings into various rooms. I go in a vacant room to rest. I hear the sound of flesh hitting ground and a person telling the people living here to eat the dead bodies. I hide.

I recall my dream transitioning, and Satan is hounding me while I ward off my bed. "Satan" in this case looks like Star Butterfly from Star Vs the Forces of Evil. At some point I am tricked to leaving my bed, and Satan says that my soul is hers. I am so annoyed by her underhanded tactics that I realize I am dreaming, but I am also too annoyed ot make any use of that fact apart from telling Satan that I'm not playing her game, and waking myself up.

this night my recall was way better. a lot of wakenings a lot of dreams and frags and way easier recalling.

again SSILD this time i fall asleep on my back while i tried halfhearted to WILD. woke up not so long later with a short dream i dont recall because i decided to turn on my side and try to fall asleep while doing some ssild again.

dont remember exactly how the dream started but it was fast-paced and hectic dream. but no nightmarish or scary.
i see (myself?) my brother in front of a bigger door. it is closed and he tries to enter. he knocks and smashes against it but the door is to heavy i realize i am dreaming but i have no body so i say to my brother to phase thru the door. after some seconds he does so and is inside of the medieval building. he is on the run because he/we get followed by some people. i see how he runs thru different corridors and makes himself invisible (so he gets transparent) and uses another dreamcontrol i cant remember.
i find myself next to him in a body and we run together. i instantly remember my three step task (finally!) but first we need to get away. we phase thru a lot of doors then walls into different rooms and thru darkness [probably because phasing thru several different thick walls without expectation] where we head to the light. we end up outside and jump into some bushes/woods. he tells me to make myself invisible but i cant [never could so far...]. we hide behind some bushes and we see the opponents down the hill. while i stay behind a tree he moves on and we get sighted. he runs away but i stay in my hide and think about how to attack them.
i remember my second three step and look around. i see some smaller campfires and i try to move the fire via TK. it wont work and the fire goes out. i try to move the firewood near me but i have some problems with it. when i manage to do it i get sighted and i jump up and run away. i jump out of the bushes on a yard and jump high up on some roofs. i jump from roof to roof till i feel save a little. i try to decelerate the dream and not think about the opponents. i sit there and again try to make some fire between my hands. i hold t hem together and while pulling them apart the skin sticks together for a short period of time. the flames that appear are very weak. i look down and see right under the roof where i am sitting a guard. i throw the "shadow of a ball of fire" down at him but miss him two times. i try it with some lightning but it doesnt work at all. i squeez some water out of my hand but that has obviously no function at all expect that i get noticed by the guard. i keep on moving on the roof and see the guard coming up a ladder. i kick him down but he comes up again. i take him with TK and smash him down on the ground and lift a car that stands around and park it on him and then throw a refrigerator on top of it but it wedge in the narrow alley [i incubated to stack up some cars and then adv. morph it into a building/tower but it didnt play out that way]
i rub my hands together, calm down and raise my awareness. i decide to change the scenery to get off this stupid theme of getting followed and attacked. i jump of the roof and approach and phase thru a wall. i find myself in darkness again [feels similar to the void but after a second thought it felt different because there was gravity and not nothingness] still running. while running i say to me "a calm nice place... a calm nice place.... a calm nice place..." and again i see a light at the end of the "room" after moving thru the light i see some palms and feel that i managed to change the dreamscene. sadly shortly after i wake up.


after a waking without journaling and a short non lucid
i find myself in same scenery like in previous lucid shortly after we phased thru all the walls and before we jumped into the woods. i pass by a door with three different writings on it. one says "exit" while still approach the woods again i get lucid and decide to not do this villain thing again so i turn around and approach the door with the exit sign. i do a nosepinch and remind myself that this is a dream again. trying not to think about the guards. but since it works the opposite i hear behind me:
"wait who there!!" i shout "your mama" start running and phase thru the door.
i turn left and jump high several plains. there are fields and houses. i look down and see that it is pretty high. to score some easy points i jump down alle the way to the ground just to turn around and jump up again. i sit on a roof and feel the dream fading. i try to stabilize but since i dont have a real plan for the lucid i let go and wake up... [lazy me...]

Legend: non-lucid lucid lucid false awakening

I with with my friend in a cafe in Mostar (town in my country I once visited with my friends). We are waiting for other people to join us. They are coming and we are going to sit at the bigger table. I have to go home, because I have classes (I teach English). I want to go, because I have classes. I stand up and I see big advertisement with contact information of Sogyal Rinpoche. There are also flyers about it. I am taking one. But as I am taking it, my pants fall down and some girl laughs. I laugh as well. It's time to go, so I ask my friend Bozo, to help me get out of Mostar, because I don't know how to go home by car. He will just help me until I get on the highway, and I will continue by myself. We go out, but I can't find my car. I know I have parked it right there. I realize I am dreaming My friend Goran is here as well. I see my car. i put my hands at their shoulders and teleport there. There is a high building nearby so I teleport with Bozo there. Then we come back to out previous position. I decide to fly, he is against it, but we take off either way on the closest building I see a lot of windows and on each of them there is one dog. The dream starts to blur so I land on one building and try stabilizing by snapping my fingers in front of my ears (that worked before) and by feeling the pressure in my feet. It starts to become clearer. Suddenly a burst of colors happen, saturation is maxed out. I just say WOW and loose lucidity. I am in a bakery with traditional Turkish dishes (which are not Turkish dishes at all, but in the dream, they are). I take ten pizzas with fish. I don't like my order, but I don't want other people to wait while I switch order, so I go with it. They serve the order in Styrofoam box, with some quinoa and some sauce.

Long LD ~7-7.40am
It's bath time. The bath water is slowly draining away though. On closer inspection the plug is blocked with paper. After fishing it out the water drains but then the bath refills itself. I get into the bath and then get the feeling things are wrong. Wait, we don't even have a bath in our house, just a shower. This must be a dream.

I climb, naked, out of the unfamiliar bath and do a nose pinch RC to convince myself. Outside the bathroom is a corridor, and down one end are a group of people. I get a momentary feeling of anxiety at being naked and do another RC to reassure myself that it's a dream and therefore doesn't matter. Yep can definitely breathe through a blocked nose.

Despite the confirmation, I walk the other way up the corridor to avoid the DCs. It leads to a bedroom.... and the first thing that crosses my mind is to summon some company. Looking back at the door to the room, which is now closed, I simply state, aloud: "You know what I like. Blonde. Pretty. C'mon."

A moment later the door handle turns and a short woman walks in. She's wearing a skirt and dark coloured tights. Her hair is indeed blonde and loose, falling to her shoulders. She smiles at me and lets me kiss her. I get my hand under her top to play with her breasts for a bit and then try to take her tights off. There is a bit of awkwardness as they won't disappear, but then we start to have sex. I make the fatal mistake of closing my eyes and lose the scene. After a few moments in the void a new room appears. I phase out through the wall and start flying over a city.

Up on one of the tall buildings a murder of crows are perched. Lazy birds. They should be flying. So I lift all of them into the air with telekinesis and start moving them around in the sky. They are resistant at first and refuse to flap their wings or even pretend, so it's just a bunch of black bird shapes rotating around in the air. Meh. Stupid birds.

I land down in the narrow alley between some skyscrapers and find a street market. There are a number of stalls and the closest one has a collection of small potted plants. I decide to reverse gravity and the pots rise into the air. This panics the stall owner who stares, wide eyed in horror, at his plants floating off to the sky. Then he seems angry, realising it is me.

Time to go! I fly away and leave the city. The scenery changes to a steep green hillside with a couple of trees. I recall my personal goal of becoming a toy green soldier. My usual method of size manipulation is to use my breath, inhaling to grow, exhaling to shrink. I start to exhale but instead of shrinking the ground beneath me starts to lower, until I am standing in a deep pit. The walls are still covered in green grass and my actual height hasn't changed.

I do some quick earth manipulation to reverse the pit back into the hillside, and try again. This time it works as expected, or at least the trees nearby grow to gargantuan proportions. I then imagine myself becoming a soldier and look down to find my arms are now green and my clothes are rigid plastic with few features.

Awesome. Time to summon my army. "Ten-Hut! Line up, soldiers!" I shout. From several small holes in the ground plastic green soldiers start running out and moving into formation. I walk to the front, pretending my legs are attached via a plank of plastic. Before I can order my new army to do anything, the dream ends. Re-entry unsuccessful.

1. I was at a school, but a rather large school at that. There were around 5 or 6 floors, and there was a campus-wide party going on. I don't remember if there was music, but there were tons of decorations, people socializing, and food and drinks. At the moment, I was standing outside of the school, but people were still partying outside as well. I noticed that on some of the pillars of the school building, there were poles sticking directly outwards that were level with the ground. On most of these poles were flags and no flag was the same. I walked up to one of these pillars, jumped, and grabbed onto the first pole that was closest to the ground. With both hands I began climbing upwards, grabbing each consecutive pole as I did so. In no time at all I made it all the way up to the 3rd/4th floor, and as I did so I saw a sign that said "Are you dreaming?" Immediately I became aware and looked around me. As I inspected my surroundings and were I was at I became lucid. Seconds later I lost lucidity as a naked blonde woman approached me as I was still hanging on one of the poles.
I got off of the pole and was now standing next to the naked blonde female. She started dancing in a heavily seductive way, and my animal side activated. In my head I remember thinking, "Wow, I want to smash this chick, but I'm not going to because that would be really disrespectful in front of this guy standing next to me." About 1 or 2 feet in front of the blonde female and I, was an asian man who was covered with tattoos and was shirtless. By the look on his face I could tell he was enjoying the show. For some reason I got the notion that this female was one of his workers or something, as if he was a pimp of some sort. In all honesty, I felt rather intimidated by him, and that was enough to stop me from making a move on this blonde woman that was dancing in front of us.

2. I was sitting in a classroom. While sitting sideways in a desk, I talked to a dude that I knew from one of the parties that my friend threw. His name was Jesse, and I remembered him because he had short dreads and wore a distinctive jacket. I don't remember what were talking about, but I noticed that he didn't have regular feet. Jesse's feet were the feet of a deer; they were deer hooves. On top of that there were white and seemed to be made out of metal. After a few minutes of talking, Jesse got up and said that he had to get some classwork from the table in the back of the classroom. Just then I remembered that I had left my water bottle at the back table, so I got up and we both went to the back table.
As we walked to the back table, I noticed that this classroom had a normal amount of desks, maybe even actually a few less than the normal amount that would be in a classroom. Everything was clean, as usual in my dreams, and I saw that the carpet was a mix of blue, gray, yellow, and black. Once we got to the back table, I saw that there were many sets of paper that I assumed to be classwork that we were supposed to do. The table that this classwork was sitting on was made of a medium-brown colored wood, and it sat on 4 metal stilts. Jesse quickly got his classwork and was already back to his seat when I had only just picked up my water bottle. I remember that the label on the water bottle was mostly blue and resembled a Nestle water bottle.
I picked the water bottle up and turned around. As I did, I saw A. She was wearing a white sweater with black stripes going all across it. "Oh my god she looks so beautiful" I thought to myself. At this moment a wave of emotions ran over me on top of the shock that I was experiencing discovering that she was in this class because I had not seen her earlier. She was sitting near the back of the class not far from where I was sitting so I was surprised.

I woke up in my old home in M, it used to belong to my family but we had to sell it and now someone else is living there. I was lying in the house, behind the front door, the architecture and furniture were not 100% accurate but pretty darn close. I got up, looked around and noticed I was not wearing trousers, just normal underwear and a t-shirt.

In 99% of dreams I would probably come up with some super stupid reason for the situation, and then would go on to do some other stupid stuff.
Not this time, it took me only seconds or maybe a minute in the dream to immediately ask all the right questions.

-Why was I sleeping on the floor, in a home we don't own anymore?
-Why can't I remember the previous night? Alcohol or something stupid like that can't be the reason as I stay away from all harmful (and thus oddly enough legal) drugs...
-Why is there no one around?
-And where is my wife?

I walked around and scouted the house to see if I'd find anyone or anything of interest. There were 5 cats and Todd the dog. I don't know why the dog had a name or had that in particular name, but well, whatever. I noticed the staircase to the roof was also not how I remembered it.
After leaving the pets I ended up in the living room. I have a really blurry memory about my father at this point, but I can't figure out if he was there or not.

Then I had the realization that I was dreaming, I did a nose-pinch RC, and sure enough I got some nice fresh air anyway. And FK all of existence, a couple of seconds later I wake up, again.
That's why we can't have nice things.

I had trouble w/ my first 2 wbtb's & the dream recall so I won't count them.

D3 I was on this big slide & the first guy I ever had sex was w/ me. We were both back in time as young as we were then. Both way too young to be having sex but we did off & on for a few yrs in real life. Did RC but didn't need to because I realize how absurd it is that we are both young & I know I'm married to Mike. It makes me lucid & I am having sex w/ this guy which I know is a dream so I just go w/ it. We had sex behind this green house which was the actual place I lost my virginity in real life so it was all youthful fun. We were trying to do it everywhere, just like back then. I then jump forward in time & I'm w/ Gail which is my ex-girlfriend. I'm so excited to see her. I'm telling her that I just came from the past. Then my alarm goes off for my wbtb.
D4: She is still there in my WILD, now I'm chaining a WILD. But we start walking. It's all hard to describe. I'm still talking to her about jumping forward this time in time & how I came from the past. She starts to kiss me & I know it's a dream so I just go w/ it. We are making out & talking about how we have missed each other & our friendship. (We were best friends before we were girlfriends & lost our relationship in the end. It was really sad because she's battled cancer, yet she was a toxic relationship for me to be in IRL.) The scene starts to destabilize. So I jump back in time to where the guy is & we have more sex, breaking a fence in the process. When this happened, the dream tried to destabilize & I jumped forward in time to be w/ her again. I kept jumping back in forth in time & lost track of how many times I did it on purpose so I'll use the low end scale of 4 times for point purposes. Eventually my alarm went off again for another wbtb w/ no success.

Important note: I have an ethical dilemma w/ sex in dreams because I'm always lucid in such scenario because I immediately remember that I'm married. I talk to my husband about my dreams & he doesn't read my journals as an act of privacy. But, today I lied & feel like shit. I told him it wasn't lucid because he knows how real they feel & didn't want to hurt his feelings. I think I did the right thing because I had already blurted out the time jumping, the first guy thing & her & he immediately asked me if I was lucid. Hence I said no. I had a sense he was gonna freak out if I told him I kept jumping back & forth for sex while lucid. Oh the dilemma.

Week 1 task for Team Vampires
Fully transform into your team's creature (Vampire)

Okay so "Night 1" is from 8:00pm on the 14th to 7:59pm on the 15th.
"Night 2" is from 8:00pm on the 15th to 7:59pm on the 16h.
"Night 3" is from 8:00pm on the 16th to 7:59pm on the 17h.
and "Night 4" is from 8:00pm on the 17th to 7:59pm on the 18h.

Okay I just had to figure that out, since I slept a good portion of the day away.

Nights 1 and 2 nothing happened. I was on holiday with family and way too busy and tired to even recall any dreams.

Night 3 was better. Here are the nonlucid(s):

I was sitting in a bar. When I stepped outside I was in a huge room with a checkerboard floor, white columns and walls and a black ceiling and approached by one of my original characters. (David). Only he looked large/stock, fat and more intimidating. He said he wanted to fight me. He said he was so confident that he would win that he would let me have 100 free hits on him before he fought back. (Exceptionally weird since one of the first traits I designed David around was to be nonviolent.)

I started fighting him with no motivation or actual provocation. He started counting down the hits I made. Punching him was just like punching and kicking a big pillow or a punching bag. I lost the dream out of frustration. I still was allowed 83 more hits on him when I t ended.


I remember Manei was the sole character of a dream set in Republic City from The Legend of Korra. I think the dream was even "animated" similarly, it looked similar to the show. She was in a disguise of a trench-coat, hat, and one of those joke shop glasses+joke nose+mustache things and pretending to read a newspaper. (Your disguise is just dripping with originality.) She waited for some people to walk buy, then threw off her disguise to reveal a red swimsuit underneath, and jumped into an open storm drain.

She swam underwater for quite some time, navigating various water pipes under the city. She didn't seem to need air, even when she finally surfaced in an underground pool about a minute later she didn't seem out of breath at all. There was a meeting forming of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Pearl from Steven Universe, and Batman. (Okay... Interesting choice of characters...) They all met at a round rusty metal table and started discussing plans for something.

...

I was Jumping like a frog on large Lilly pads in a swamp (Dagobah Feeling), apparently as a part of some kind of physical training. Manei approached me and told me I was misusing my physical body and if I wanted to do whatever it was I was trying to do or train myself for (semi lucidity is the best), I should just transmute myself into an actual frog.

She then showed me what she said was called a dream frog. It looked like a normal bull frog but it had a red button on its back that you would press. Apparently it was a very powerful dreaming artifact that allowed me to hop back to lucid dreams that I had already had and change what happened in them.

I think the dream frog wiggled out of her hand and hopped away in the swamp. I tried to go after it but it disappeared.

...

We were back in Republic City from Legend of Korra and we had to fight agianst Mako, Bolin and Korra who were trying to stop us from getting into this building. (Presumably a town hall, it looked nothing like the town hall from the show, it was much smaller and looked more like a miniature version of the US capital building. It was also built by the coast.) The battle took place at sunset with the sun setting over the water.

Manei had a truly brilliant combat strategy. She charged in and got their attention then proceeded to chicken out and hide behind a parked tank as boulders and fire missiles shot over us. I remember poking out of cover and nearly getting pelted with attacks myself. I tried to encourage her to run out of cover on separate sides and maybe we could split their line of fire and flank them, but she had completely lost it.

I jumped up and started flying above the battle. Bolin and Korra worked together and threw a barrage of giant boulders at me. I kicked one of them and my skate blade popped out and sliced it in half (cool.) I flew over and landed, standing on one foot, on a flagpole atop the building. Mako shot lightning up the metal flagpole and killed me. For some reason when he killed me the scene became animated much more simplistically and I saw myself in third person. I turned into a giant cooked turkey and fell on the ground.

Its interesting to me how naturally the Zero-friction sakes have worked their way into dreams. I don't post every dream I have anymore so you guys don't get the full picture, but they made their first true appearance in the last comp, and since then they've come up 10+ times, mostly in semi lucids. Something tells me if I was to try to summon them in a lucid dream, I'd have no difficulty whatsoever.

I feel dirty classing these as four separate NLDs since they share plot threads, but since there was some semi-lucidity in there, and because I'm down two days completely due to circumstances outside my control, I'll call it for four points...

NLDx4=1

On the actual 'Night 4' I only had a nonlucid dream.

I was going to work with my mom. For some reason she worked in this big castle built out of Minecraft blocks built by the side of a realistic lake. Apparently she was studying how to make Minecraft educational to college students. (My mom works at a college IWL). I remember there was a door that was supposed to operate with redstone and pistons but it wasn't working and my mom wanted to call the groundskeepers and have them fix the door.

The dream changed plots to a story about a 44 year old man (age specifically given) who wanted to be 'young and hip' and decided to quit his desk job and become a DJ. He was in a recording studio recording a song called 'Bang, Bang, Cowboy'. It was like a hip hop/dance song that used some country instruments. I know that sounds musically impossible, but somehow in the context of the dream, it sounded really good.

I must say as far as Dream Music goes, this was probably the second best song to 'Robot Disassembly'. I even remember the dance move you would do to it where you would point at your dance partner with two fingers and then on each utterance of the word 'Bang' in the song flick your hand up as though you had shot them, alternating hands each time. A rather unusual implication for a dance, but apparently it caught on as a trend.

Then it showed another scene of the guy trying to come up with more songs and he couldn't. The country singer walked into the recording studio not wearing a shirt, having a comically oversized cowboy hat on and a huge case of beer. She started chugging all the beers and the DJ guy started dancing to the cowboy song and other people came in and danced with them and drank beer. Then they got in trouble for ruining all the recording equipment.

But later in the day I napped for two cycles. (I know this because I fell asleep at 12:30, awoke from a dream at about 2, then slept again and woke up at about 3:45)

In the first lucid I false awoke and rather groggily walked into my parent's bathroom. In it I saw the cabinets under the sink were missing and there was a gigantic cluster of amethyst crystals on display. I for some reason recognized this as a dream sign and did a nose pinch reality check. This caused me to become lucid. I lost the dream and woke up.

-+-

The second dream I was preparing to go to work with my mom. I remember off in the east there were these huge black mushroom shaped buildings with a purple energy conduit running around the edge of the 'cap' of the mushroom. There were white glowing windows, along with what looked like bits of technology, exterior pipes and conduits and power boxes.

There were also these very tall (clouds wrapping around 1/4 of the way up, so probably many miles tall) buildings that shared a similar color palate. They had these huge sideways facing cylinders with purple energy conduits along the edges built into their superstructures.

I became lucid rather randomly. It wasn't because of the buildings. I just remember saying to myself "I'm dreaming, aren't I?" and proceeding to launch myself into the air with enough force to crack the cement driveway. I launched up into the cloud but a moment later a dull, but strong pain in my knees and thighs registered and the dream pretty quickly disintegrated.

Creepy Dream Characters

I was walking through the city streets speedily until people behind me called out to me. Turning around I saw that my purse and sweater were on the ground. I thanked the people for telling me and picked up my stuff wondering how I could not notice. I was also worried that I had dropped my phone but couldn't find it. This made me retrace my steps just to be sure I didn't drop it on the street but as I was going back a guy that had a blond buzz cut and wearing white shorts with a brown/white t-shirt came up to me. He said that it was like he met me somewhere before but that he couldn't tell where.

I became lucid than and told the dc that we were in a dream and pulled him back from a crowd that was moving around us. He wanted to take me somewhere but now that I looked at him his appearance was different. He was wearing purple glasses, clothing that reminded me of Marcus Jade's character, and a sweater around his waste.I told him that he was starting to look like Marcus but he just grabbed my hand and went into a jewelry shop with me. We than ended up in a hotel place than went into another room that changed into a African style room where there was a balcony that was painted brown and had vines with monkey statues on it.

He took me out that room and was about to go up some stairs with me but I pulled back my hand from his. "Where are you trying to take me!?"I said annoyed already.He looked back at me telling me to just follow him. I said no and ran through a hall and into another room to get away from the dc. The room began turning red but than stopped. The floor was kind of wobbly too. I observed the room taking note of two old styled windows than decided to get out of the room through the walls. My goal now was to try and meet Jade's dream characters.

I walked around till I ended up in a room with random dcs. They claimed to be Jade's dcs even though they weren't. I did end up finding something good there though. I saw a changing picture in manga style that had Eye and Dawn in it. The first picture was one where Dawn had his arm around Eye in a brotherly way and the other was a pic of Dawn making Eye chug something down his throat. It was kind of funny and was good for inspiration for making more art.

After I was done looking I noticed we were in front of my house now. When I looked at the dcs that were still present one of them did something really stupid. He just unzipped his pants and started peeing everywhere and all over another dc. I flew towards a gate than somewhere else to get away from him. I ended up in a room where there was a child that caught my attention. The child was about 6 at first than changed to a small tiny baby. I picked up the baby and hugged him but than he started talking like a evil guy who just wanted to rape people. I didn't like the creepy baby anymore and threw it at a wall. I was about to take a sword out too, to battle him but he was already broken so I changed my mind.

Fighting Drive

I was with my brother who took me into a small cabin that had a book we were supposed to get to beat a mission.I tried balancing the book in my hand but there was another book inside it that wasn't getting off. I tried calling my brother for help but I noticed that he vanished and that the world I was in looked like Zelda Windwaker. The cabin was on a cliff side near a plains and the Pirate ship was close to the cliff on the ocean."I'm lucid again and I'm in Windwaker"I thought happily. I stepped out the cabin feeling like I had Link's body and was thinking about where to go first when I saw the sun going down. This made me think of the monsters coming out and that's when I heard the creepy battle music.

I didn't want to fight the monsters so I ran and jumped off the cliff summoning a white blanket I thought link used to glide from one place to another.(However, i haven't played the game in a long time so after checking out some pics its actually a green leaf)This let me land on the tower of the ship but than I jumped off and let myself fall into the hole entrance of the ship. I was thinking about doing the dhl mission to fight a sword guy or monster but the ship was empty. I entered a room that reminded me of the place where you have to jump from one place to another to get rubies but I ended up in a apartment building instead.There I was able to find what looked like a blue dragon and fought him with wind and a sword but I took him out pretty quickly. This made me feel dissatisfied since I wanted to fight a sword guy. I noticed Dawn in the room and told him to fight me. I swung my sword at him lightly and he blocked it telling me to calm down. He wasn't in a fighting mood at all but I still kept trying to make him fight me until I thought about Andres and kokkiri forest. "Let's go to kokkiri forest and fight a giant or a monster with a sword!"I said excited to complete the mission. I looked out the window seeing we were at a high height.

I also took note that the sky was foggy and there were some drawings and a poster of two woman on a white building. After I finished observing my surroundings I heard the lost woods song and jumped out the window ready to fly to kokkiri forest but just as I was starting to fly Dawn jumped on my leg grabbing me and pulling me down telling me not to go. I had a false awakening moment than but could only see a clear light and white blankets making me wonder if I was still dreaming. I felt someone beside me and it turned out to be Dawn proving to me that I was still in a dream.He looked cute at that moment so I got carried away and kissed him until he told me to stop and hid under the blankets saying that his master was coming. I noticed we were in a Japanese dojo now and could see someone walking towards us through the halls. At first they were blurry but than I saw it was a lady with short light aqua hair, red lipstick and clothing that made me think she could be in a band. I saw a random gum lieing around and tossed it at her. She laughed as she walked around us and did not seem aggressive at all.I tried it again and she told me to stop when it got stuck on her hair. I pulled it out ripping some hair off and said sorry. Still no violent nature. Dawn got out from under the blanket and than a small kid appeared laughing at how there was still some gum stuck on her.I had another false awakening after that but after realizing it was a dream I woke up.I could have probably done the sword master mission at the dojo but I got distracted.

Last night bed at 8 pm. Alarm set to 1am, but I woke up at 12:47 so I took 2x300 Alpha GPC then. Went back to bed to sleep another hour before staying up for WBTB, but couldn't fall asleep for good 10 min. So when second alarm rang at 2am, I kept sleeping. Woke up at 2:50 and I almost blew the whole thing. Stayed up for 30 min before felt I was already awake enough. I read Opehlia's DJ for motivationD. Took 2xGM at 3:20am and went straight to sleep.

8pm - bed
12:47am - 2x300 Alpha GPC
2:50 - 3:20am - WBTB
3:20am - 2x4 pure galantamine
3:20am - sofa

About 40 min long.

Took me about 10 min to fall asleep, after my cat jumped off of me. The head sensation, which normally is feeling of buzzing and cold spot in the top back of my head, was this time different. I had a sensation in the perimeter of the whole head. Imagine my head being an egg, so the sensation was in the eggshell. It was interesting and strong.

Part 1:

About 20 min long.

I did a lot of walking I think mostly outdoors. There was some kind of a plot which I don't remember.

One of my goals was to slow down and look around. So I stopped and look backwards. It was awesome, because this is first time when I did it. The picture was clear and everything was very detailed. I looked up and wanted to see stars. I could see how the dream was trying to work on my wish. The skies were changing, black was moving and some small light were starting to come up, untill the skies were full of stars. Then I wanted the moon and one stronger light was trying to break through but I didn't wait for that to finish.

At some point I was walking through some rock and I heard something. I thought it sounded like ocean waves hitting the shore. I got excited and as I walked down the other side of the rocks, sure enough, there was beautiful shoreline. Like in norther california in Big Sur area. Dark blue waters and rocky shore. The waves hitting the rocks and the sound they made was so spot on. It was so beautiful that after a long time I again felt such an incredible joy. I felt my face grinning ear to ear and I was so happy. I saw some people in the water so I waded in.

At some point in this lucid I thought that maybe I will wake up, but then I thought no, it's too early, I will not wake up.

I don't remember if I turned to my right side at the begining, or when I woke up in the middle. But I remember waking up and opening one eye to look. My room looked normal but I counted my fingers with other hand to make sure it's not an FA. And lol, I counted 6! I'm like how the heck did I do that and counted again. 5 this time. I went back to sleep because I already didn't remember much from the lucid and I still felt the head sensations so I was hoping to get another lucid. And I did.

Part 2:

About 20 min long.

This was happening mostly indoors. I think this is exactly how it was in my previous lucid - outside first, then indoors.

It's some kind of a huge building, like a mall, but not that moder. Lots of people. But I didn't get to see any individuals or talk to them, I think.

I was standing on some large stairs gooing up, when I thought I should fly. But it was so realistic, I couldn't fly. Then I thought that I should be able to fly anyway, because it's a dream and others do it.

I started to float up a bit. I though "higher" and I went higher. I started to fly forward and the dream reacted to me saying "faster" a few times, until I was going decent speed. It was awesome.

The interiors from this and previous dream remind me of the architecture of Naboo from Star Wars.

Thank you! I would like more dreams like this. Flying, looking around, talking to DCs. Slowing down and being a part of a dream.
