lucid

Managed to get a short DILD and WILD. There were various other dreams, at least two before the first awakening and a few others between the LDs, but I've only fragments or forgotten much of these now

Scrap Group 1
An attractive older woman is hit on by a young guy, the latter flirting and teasing her on her age. The woman plays along.

Watching some Mortal Kombat story mode clip on TV. Kung Jin allies himself with an odd figure, a skinless, limp humanoid whom moved around solely by two spears impaled on his torso. Despite his macabre appearances, said creature was actually quite noble and heroic. They fight off some Tarkatans on a large junk. My brother, Dirk, arrives and watches with interest.

Dream 1 - Giant Parrot Harpy

The visuals were blurred. I was playing a top down 16-bit game set in a high tech metal base.

Reach a room with two Bloodtear Alchemists from Duelyst. Annoyingly, they zoned expertly to hurl fireballs at me, though I managed to take them down unscathed. On crossing a metal door, I cleared the stage, cued to the sound of a like jingle from the first Mega Man.

Unknown cut. I gain first person perspective. Just ending a boss fight with a gigantic parrot, its feathers bright green and pink. It was all but KO'd. I stood triumphantly on its head. Only needed to force feed it a huge grey jewel to win. The absurdity of my punching a crate-sized gem down a giant bird's throat made me realize the dream. Oh well, I went through with it anyway.

With that done, the creature began transforming. I hoped it would change into a pretty lady. In the end, it turned into a harpy of equally vast size, along with like colored wild hair and feathers. But her face was pleasant enough. Anyway, I climbed between her wooly hair, and ordered we depart.

The dream collapsed and ended as she took flight.

Obstinately waited for another dream. Between catching myself drifting on and off from sleep, I managed a WILD within about twenty minutes.

Dream 2 - Hair Legs

A whirling sensation marked the start of a WILD. I concentrated on my breaths for a few minutes before starting.

Noticed I had trouble moving, and couldn't open my eyes, though I could at least roll around with some effort. I tried plummeting off my bed, but floated back against my will. Repeat half a dozen more times. I do a breath test, which seems to not work, but finding that I didn't wake up reassured me enough, and even granted me full mobility.

Still couldn't open my eyes. I remembered a suggestion of just looking through the lids, and, with surprising ease, managed to do as much. Things were still kinda blurry, though bright sunlight provided great lighting. After a few paces, I shrunk myself for the fun of it, reducing myself to just about 1ft in height. I wanted to see myself in the mirror, but was too small to see that above the dresser.

Just remembered the "walk with your head" task. Wait, so am I supposed to walk "using" my head, or walk around while carrying my (presumably detached) head? I settled on the former and hoped for the best. So, I started by attempting a handstand. Couldn't manage it, so I just layed on my back. Tried sliding around with my head, though it just felt as if I were floating backwards. With some concentration, I eventually noticed my hair actually formed into a pair of legs. Heh, what? Moved around back and forth on these flimsy new limbs for a minute or so before the dream collapsed.

Last night bed 9:50 pm - 4:45 am

4:45 am 2x300 alpha GPC
5:09 am 2x4 pure galantamine
5:09 sofa

About 30-40 min long event.

Got up to potty at 5:56. Somehow I got used to doing it this way. To get up when I'm on the verge of falling asleep and almost starting to feel some sensations.

Fell asleep almost immediately afterwards. Barely had time to notice my head getting "lucidy".

I finally remember how it started. I'm in a dream, waiting to "get lucid" when I realize I can just get up and walk away so I do so. I get out the door while noticing the detail and colors. I think it's my childhood home.

I spent the wholetime looking for and getting me some. At some point I said "oh I better do the totm". I remembered it has to be both hands. My right one went in my pocket while left one got stuck a bit on the top of the pocket. I reached in and pulled out two ends to the string thing that my pants have. Kinda like a tie. My right hand also pulled out small crumbed piece of paper. I realized I have my black pants on and I thought that's about right.

I spent a large chunk of the dream in dark trying to make it bright with some success. But unfortunately I do that in almost every dream.

Meditation is helping me to have better lucid dreams from what I can tell, at the very least longer and with more recall. It's not removing the weird factor of my dreams, but I think they're better with that left in.

I saw an alternate world map at some point. I might have to draw it I don't remember everything from it but here were the basics.

-There was a huge circular impact crater ocean filling up most of the southeastern united states and the Caribbean. The US was divided along the middle. Apparently the civil war never ended. There was only one island in the middle of the crater labeled 'puerto rico'

-There was another landmass to the southwest of Australia, about the same size but a little bit more long and skinny. It was its own country and became important in the upcoming dreams. I forgot what it was called so I'll just call it Bobland.

-All of the korean peninsula was labeled 'North Korea'. The Japanese Archipelago was labeled 'Regular Korea'.

-Russia was divided up into three countries labeled 'Soul Eater' (to the west) 'Potato' (in the middle) and 'Amethyst' (in the east.) The country of Potato was colored brown on the map and shaped like a potato. It was known to be an agricultural breadbasket for this alternate world.

-There were six or seven islands running between the tip of brazil and west Africa. Each one was its own country.

I got to go for a walk on a nature trail in Bobland. Apparently most of the flora and fauna were similar to those in north America but there were some animals from other continents that had gone extinct everywhere else but here. Bobland was a very environmental nation. They only had one major city in the entire nation, on the southern edge in a big bay. Supposedly the city was still polluted due to being very industrial but all of the pollution was contained in a small quarter of the country. This industrial powerhouse gave them the power to preserve the rest of the country.

I remember seeing on my nature walk they had two of these houses, they looked oriental, but they were up on stilts above clearings in the woods, and you had to climb high ladders to get into them. They were meant as lookouts for the park rangers There were also these animals called [something] kissers. They looked like little cat-sized kangaroos with anteater snouts and were red and white. They were really smart and used simple tools and if they came up to you and kissed you it was supposed to be good luck. I remember three or four of them followed on my hike on the nature trail and before I went back to my car to drive to the airport and fly back home they all kissed me with their little snouts.

I was doing work for this political campaigner guy who was apparently secretly responsible for deciding who won the election; Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton. Apparently everything these people did and every speech they made etc was all a very elaborate setup to do psychological experiments on the people of the united states.

He had this big hill in the backyard of his mansion that felt like it was my house in my neighborhood but it was bigger and made out of dark red bricks and had a black roof and all of these archways incorporated into the architecture. In his backyard he had this hill, well it wasn't really a 'hill'. It was like a stone wall on one side and on the other a grassy slope at an absurd incline (70-80 degree incline) but was flat a little bit on top. He planted two different types of grass on the hill to make the lighter color of grass with a five-pointed star on it. Apparently even though this whole experiment thing and his job were supposed to be a closely secret, he liked to advertise that he was an important part of the american government by having this huge beautiful landscape billboard thing in his backyard. *confused jackie chan face goes here*

And I had to mow it. Gravity distorted in a way that when you walked up/down the hill, it was like walking on flat ground. But mowing it was hard work due to the sheer size of it (3-5 stories high and about as wide). Also I had to mow it in a very particular way as to only mow all of the grass inside of the star first, then move on to mow all the grass outside. When I had finished, (Dream time took care of most of the mowing) I went to put the mower back, and looked back to where the hill just was and this caused me to become semi lucid. For some reason I was thinking that I had to find a mountain first. (Maybe related to the disappearing hill, IDK) Internal logic and low level lucidity dictated that the easiest way to get to a mountain would be to fly to another planet with one. For whatever reason, I felt as though if I tried to find a mountain on earth, I felt like the dream would destabilize.

I flew up into the air on yer standard issue flying jets, effortlessly and started flying through the clouds. I got some great sensations of flying, wind in my hair, cool, wet clouds, and good visuals. Then I saw two Jet Fighters and one of them said in a bull horn like police to stop flying because I was supposed to go mow that guy's lawn again. But I disregarded them because I knew it was a dream and they shot a missile at me. I remember I caught it and when I did I was surprised at how small and simplistic it was. It was about the size of a baseball bat and seemed to be made out of plastic. I threw it back and blew up one of the planes.

I saw a huge white door (like the door of a house or a room) in the side of a cloud with a golden handle. I thought that it was a door to heaven and I said out loud to myself that I thought the dream was going to start having religious symbolism in it. I remember I had to flip around and fly the other way to get away from the fighter jets. When I came out the other end, I was in an office on a dock in an industrial shipyard. I jumped out the window and looked around. I recognized that this was the main city of Bobland. There was a huge harbor with lots of large industrial buildings, and big cranes loading up freight ships. In the distance, across the bay, I could see a very modern-looking skyline. I remember the industrial complex was between the mountains and the sea and built up onto the mountains with various mines and the likes on them. There were shipping docks and cranes up there and flying container ships with big wings sticking out of the bottom. Past that the industrial gave way to a few lower-class homes and eventually untamed wilderness and very tall snowcapped mountains.

I was still obsessed with getting to a mountain. So I jumped out the window of the office and started running with super speed at an angle across the bay straight to the biggest mountain. The jet fighters from before showed up, only I think there were more of them. I somehow knew they had tracked me but I didn't want to waste my time in the lucid fighting them. I jumped into flying because it was faster than running and went supersonic, still flying just a few feet above the water. The thing that I remember was they shot machine guns at me and one the bullets went through my right forearm. It just made like a half-inch wide hole and the inside of my arm was just made of like pink Bologna and there was no blood, but it still hurt a little. I remember thinking to myself that these guys shouldn't be chasing me to the other side of the planet.

Then what I assumed were the Bobland jets came. And there were A LOT of them. (Like 50sh) The country had these very futuristic jets with forward swept wings that had big turbines in them, and they shot blue laser beams rather than bullets. Supposedly they had been attacked by aliens in the past and fought them off but taken their technology to make their military very strong. (I remember an alien invasion was actually very important to the overarching plot of last nights dreams, probably explaining the alternate earth.) They were trying to shoot down the american jets but they could hit me too because of the way the chase was going, so I turned directions and went straight up. I was flying up twoards one of the flying cargo ships that had little turrets on the bottom started shooting with machine guns to try to kill the american planes. I said something like "Gosh, I just cant get out of the way." I tried to get out of the way and the american planes shot missiles at the flying cargo ship. (Though I think they were meant for me.) When they hit all of the cargo containers started falling off. I flew through them but they destroyed the american planes as they fell.

I kept flying to the mountain. I didnt seem to be flying very fast or even able to get very high. It sort of felt like I was tired from flying. I don't know if it was because of all that action and maneuvering in the air or the fact that I was becoming aware that the dream was ending soon or what. But I eventually had to drop out of flying and start running with super speed to get to the mountain. I ran through a big quarry area that looked rather interesting but I ignored it. I ran down a long dirt road that led up the mountainside.

I stopped about halfway up when I saw piglets running in the road. I remember they had two sets of front legs but the back set was too short to touch the ground. Both sets of front legs were bright red and lacked fuzz. When I stopped all the pigs started running away from me. They were apparently a product of genetic engineering and radiation poisoning. It was funny how they moved as squealed and ran away from me and I was thinking they were kind of cute. I wondered why they were here and could never think of any other time that I had dreamed of pigs.

Manei jumped out from behind a dead tree and killed one with some kind of small axe or mace. I asked her why she did it. She held out a sandwich in a bag from a Subway and, sounding very angry, complained to me that they refused to give her both "Pig Meat" and "Fish Meat" on her sandwich and would only let her have one or the other. I told her that in waking life, we call 'pig meat' pork, and 'fish meat' is just fish. This incident with the sandwich was somehow supposed to be a more mundane everyday allegory for the epic adventure I had just had, but even now I have no idea how. I wanted to ask her about meditation but when I tried to speak, the only word that would come out of my mouth was 'mountain'. The dream went to black and I woke up.

(After a short awakening)

I was in a movie theatre with Maka and Soul from soul eater. (Only they looked like real people, not anime characters.) We sat down to watch a movie but Asura (from Soul Eater) gave a short speech first. Then this big judge guy with a powdered wig talked for a little bit.

Then the movie started. It was some kind of 2D animated science fiction movie that reminded me of Titan AE. The main character was a high school girl who went to a space high school with aliens. There was a human boy that she liked but the boy didn't seem to like her back . Soul complained that the movie was boring because it spent all the time developing the girl's crush on a boy rather than showing the cool science fiction stuff. Someone in the front row threw an orange cat (yes, a living cat, like one that you would keep as a pet.) at the screen and stopped the movie. The cat then attacked the judge guy and pulled his wig off.

After a long dry spell, I went back to what worked in the first place - meditation; particularly with a focus on absolute presence, calmness, and clarity of the mind. I did this before I went to sleep at night and had a lucid dream this morning about visiting a neighbor's house.

I feel like the crux of my meditation is a focus on, "I am". There is nothing more present than that statement. It's not a mantra I repeat 10,000 times, I am just simply aware of my self and my breathing in the moment without being distracted by other thoughts because nothing else matters in that moment except that, "I am". Looking forward to more success via meditation.

Of course dream journaling is important too. I am becoming more diligent in writing down my dreams every single time I wake up.

+ club / clothes / 3 birds in water / water-cube

+ little living soldiers game

+ scary storm cloud

+ ping pong

+ women playing video games: my name on screen

+ LUCIDD 209 LD#209 in building, get lucid, do TOTM basic pocket summon get handful of tiny coins, 5's and 2's, ask guy what they are, he says "5 drachma", keep looking at them, shake his hand, go outside, kiss girl interrupt her she's talking to some guy, "mm, well, ok" she says, I stop and squat down and look around, then she leans in an initiates a kiss with me, we stand up entangled, things get hot, then the dream fades.

+(f) in a house with people playing with furry pets (cat?)

+ "RTL" guy in restaurant, lots of food laid out on on the tables, it's a private party

+ return to room, meet family I saw earlier, kids misbehaved so they're going home, enter office, clsoe dor, walk along long narrow table to far end, move to end, make sure there's room for my feet at the end, set up to work there on my laptop

+ middle-aged asian guy sitting at table eating plain-looking dim sum. "Ssssshhhh!" he tells me and motions to a cart of food and drink behind him. I go there and notice cans of beer, and other drinks, I take one thinking it's beer but it's dark, sweet, and I think it's coke. I sit on the other end of the table from him and suddenly a commercial break starts up, an animation of a peanut butter jar appears in the air spinning around with music and a bunch of young Japanese advertising girls appear and I think this is hilarious and pretend to be the announcer caling out "Jiff peanut butter! <etc.>". Then there's a small saucer of peanut butter in front of me and I'm trying to eat a piece but the chunk I'm trying to take is stuck via a strand to the chunk still on the saucer, I'm laughing and hurrying it's all hilarious and there's a guy sitting across from me and I'm shoving the peanut butter to him to eat and it spills and there's a huge stain on the table all the while the nice Japanese advertising girls are trying to help us eat it.

Again, I'm behind. These next few dream entries are from what I have saved on my phone. Some may lack a little detail as I wont remember the feelings and such as strongly.

I'm at my mom's house, and she's drunk. She and dad kept bothering me. I remember the room being very dark, very ominous. I told mom she was drunk and to leave me alone. I feel guilty because I never call my mom out on her drinking, and it's clear she's upset when she walks away.

We jump to being in traffic with Kelli, Kevin, and Don. Traffic is heavy and Kevin is pissed, so we take shortcuts. Down back alleys and up stairs. In his truck. Finally, we're at a new house. Dream Kevin's house. My two brothers are there (I made a note for myself here that said maybe abaddon's story. I have no idea what that means but it was important enough for me to include...) and I'm upset. Maybe the house is haunted?

At this point the notes don't make that much sense to me. I have no idea what this dream was about but I figured I'd leave it in case something comes back to me.

Brother - Aiden - has had enough. We were supposed to watch pitch perfect 2 cut scenes and behind the scenes but his gf comes over and they go to bed (kevin's room) I tell him I'm going to bed and start crying and he does nothing. Upset. He comes back out and a knock at a door I think is a closet. It's not, it's a second front door. Older couple and someone come in. Leave?

Another knock woman comes in pregnant. She comes in she's upset she's pregnant, she turns into my cat. I slowly become lucid. Realize it's a dream and before I wake up I wanna be annoying. Scare and annoy my cat with my shoes. (?) Terrorize animals and then realise it's times to get up. Make myself wake up.

(MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I woke up 5 hours into my sleep and studied for 20 minutes, then went back to bed. I lied on my back and repeated I would become lucid next time I was dreaming. I tried laying attention to HIs but kept waking up each time I did.

I was in the middle of a dream and became spontaneously lucid. I had a FA in which I was in my parents' bed. I tried getting up but was really heavy and fell. I had another FA, this time I was in my bed. I got up and did a RC, I was still dreaming. My body felt as if I were spinning. I remembered Dolphin's advice on imagining I had just finished spinning and waiting for the feeling to go away, it worked.
I walked down the stairs and saw it was bright outside. I opened my door and it still was day time. Something made me look back inside, and when I turned around to step out it was night time. I cursed myself and then looked back inside and then outside, it was day time again. I was on top of a small building. It looked like the assassin's bureau from AC I. Michela and Cali were there. I lost a bit of lucidity and asked Michela to help me fix my phone's brightness. I kept trying to remind myself I was dreaming. I looked at my hands and arms and it looked really vivid and real. I took off and started flying.

I think I fell into a non-lucid dream

+ in some room [FA?] in bed with wife with sliding glass door [DS], outside are train tracks, 2 locomotive trains arrive simultaneously, both moving right to left. Our door is open, and people are streaming off the train, I want to go to the door to close it becaue I don't want people coming in our room. I get up and go there but go outside. Wife comes after me and before I can tell her not to close the door she closes it and it locks behind her. Now I'm standing on the platform in just my underwear and I'm furious at her for closing the door behind her and tell her so.

+ at workplace with [unknown] colleagues, I notice a donut tray, boy it looks good, I take a small pastry and eat it. I come back to that area and now a lunch platter is spread on the ground. I'm inspecting the packages. One of them is like bento box, strangely shaped

+ looking at CH back lawn (green) from deck talking to Asian girl, I tell her "this is my home! I grew up here!" [finally, some location awareness in the dream!] then I show off by jumping from the deck to the lawn (it's about 20 feet down) and land, she's amazed, I think of saying "yeah, I'm kind of like superman" but decide against it

+ LUCIDD 208 LD#208 tree on the hill, streams, picnicking groups, climb hill hard dirt path climbing, woman in the group above me which is getting up to leave mutters an excuse for leaving, s.l. "because ... blah blah...dream". Dream? That gets my attention. I do a slow, careful, thoughtful nose pinch and yep, I'm dreaming. The dream ends/transitions after that and I lose lucidity. [Shortest LD ever , but I count it because I had high awareness for at least a moment, and completed the affirmation that I was dreaming].

+ volleyball game, several points, I flub a couple serves and let a ball pass that was in bounds, some balls were out, the guy who serves following me also flubs a serve so I don't feel so bad

+(f) some guy is talking, he's a fishing guide, then I'm imagining swimming frantically in murky water trying to evade sharks.

+ wine tasting: woman ways "grey (?) [meaning white] wine is my favorite!" I say "white is my favorite too, but so it red, I like all types!"

+(f) floating in a boat with a girl up a tight/narrow waterway and sneaking a bite of sushi before our scheduled meal at our destination

+ gathering talking with groups at tables, a guy I'm talking with leave and sits at another table (picnic style bench table) and he's angry at me for dissing him but I yeah, OK, let's talk all night, "we can eat ding dongs, dildos, and ho hos" and think "oops that was a slip of the tongue"

+(f) in semi-darkness arriving at some parking lot place with lots of people, I notice a narrow parking place next to a driveway

+ in a tent swinging above the ground sorting my shirts and my sons's socks

D1: Non-luicd: I was w/ a group of spiritual people & we are having a group session. The topic was on
people who have "seer abilities". Each person was talking about their abilities. But I kept getting vibes from the woman on my right that were distracting. I could tell she was lying for some reason. Then Meesha Cat woke me up to be fed.

D2: Lucid: This was an Armageddon setting dream. There is a girl who insists that the group should help her find her canary. I then became lucid & tried to think of the TOTM tasks but I can only remember the one about holding our head & think it's creepy so I just go w/ the flow of the dream. I see the cage & am helping her look for the bird but I'm insisting that she should leave it because it will make noise & draw attention to us. I'm trying to rationalize to her why it is so dangerous but as soon as we give up looking we hear the bird screeching. Our group anxiously is arguing about the bird & our safety. I'm telling them that their arguing is drawing attention to us & pleaded for them to stop but it's too late & our hide out is rushed by the police state officers. We manage to get in a car & the arguing escalates again. We hurried into another building which looks like the capital building. We no sooner get inside when we hear a loud explosion & we now have a hole in the room we are in. I can see professional looking people in the other room w/ suits on but they don't know we are there. They are looking out the windows & panicking. But soon the people w/ me are making noise again w/ more arguing & they start to figure out that we are there. But they no sooner are trying to alert the other people in the next room, that the building was stormed by the police state officers & are being dragged out. I then woke up. This dream was so fast paced that I was having trouble stabilizing it so I just waited to see where I could do more but it just ended too soon. Yet I did feel good about it becoming lucid regardless.

Odd

I was eating a pot of soup filled with big Lima beans,leaves and beef on my bed with my hands. There were people visiting and I asked my mom if she wanted to hear about the dream I had. The dream than shifted and I appeared in my living room where I saw the family get together. There I saw cousins and people I don't know interacting,cooking rice and having a good time. I recognized it as a dream and liked the plot but than I saw a dc on the floor who looked like my cousin but also had features of someone I didn't know, acting strange."Hey.Remember me? We haven't seen each other in a long time"she said to me. "Yeah. Ofcourse I remember you"I said in a somewhat sarcastic tone.She than started talking about something and was about to go downstairs wanting me to follow her but I stopped at the top and pointed out a part of her face that looked like it was burned and she got a huge scar.

She than covered where it was with her hand and said "sorry".Afterwards changing into a blond girl with a bun and a blue/white ice skating outfit. Instead of looking 16 she now looked 10 years old.She than walked upstairs and went to my older brother's room where I followed her. She mentioned that she had a problem with something and started doing stretches. I was starting to think scary thoughts so I decided to help her warm up by holding her foot so that I would distract myself from the bad thoughts.I than told her that if she wanted her problem fixed to get a dream guide. She thought it was a good idea but didn't know how to go about it first. The dream than shifted and I was now on my bed looking up at the ceiling near the door. There I saw a dark skinned boy looking at me. I than heard a man say that he was tired of watching over me and that it was the boy's turn. The boy had trouble getting in the room though. I told him to just focus on me instead of the wall and he got through but I woke up after that.

Hug

I was on my bed and thinking about Eye. He than came through a portal and sat next to me on my bed.I hugged him than took notice of another dc that was sitting on my bed.I didn't really have a lucid goal so I just stayed there hugging Eye for a bit.He didn't talk so no dialogue for this dream scene.Afterwards the dream changed to a non lucid dream where I was at the supermarket doing a shopping competition with my family.

(I didn't draw the pic)

A heavy set lady is downstairs in M Street at night. She's making a comment about asking someone to pinch her as tough she's dreaming. I tell her with a smirk that you can just do a nose-pinch if you want to tell if you're dreaming. I noseplug, breate and become lucid. I look across the living room and see her in the dark on the far side sitting on the couch. I decide to torpedo-fly over to her to ask questions before she heads out. I zoom quickly across the room and land on the couch. The dream is a bit fuzzy and I want to stabilize, but decide to close my eyes in the dream and try to use body sense and vibration to enter another dream scene. I appear in a void after some time and wait for a dream to form. I stay for a bit longer and have an FA in bed. I'm reminding myself to become lucid in the next dream, trying to drift to sleep in the dream. A strange sounding alarm goes off.

(DEILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I woke up about 5 hours into my sleep and stayed up for 25 minutes. I went to bed and kept repeating to myself I would remember I was dreaming. Hypnagogia started and turned into a dream

I was running through a forest. It was 11pm but the sun was still setting. A guy sprinted past me. I realized I was really far from the exit and it would soon be dark. I picked up my pase and then decided to cut off the path and run straight towards the nearest street parallel to the park. I was climbing over rocks, docking under fallen trees. I then remembered something and started waking up.

I stayed still and SP set in right away. I tried to get up but couldn't. I waited a bit longer and felt the vibrations through my body and the buzzing sound. I got a little anxious and had an HI about a demon trying to rip open my mouth, but somehow I calmed myself down and told myself I would destroy the demon as soon as I was able to stand up in my LD.

The buzzing stopped, I got up. I looked around my room, I was alone. I exited my room and went down the stairs. Fiona was lying on the stair rest. It seemed a bit light outside telling by the brightness inside the house, but when I opened the front door, it was night time. I stepped outside; the street lights made the street bright enough for me to stabilize. I rubbed my hands and looked at them. They seemed normal, and really clear. I looked up and could see the Milky Way, it was beautiful. I realized it felt as if my right eye was closed. I remembered Dolphin's advice, and instead of trying to open it (which usually ends up in me trying not to open my waking body eye and destabilizing my dream) I told myself I would "look" through my closed eye, and it worked perfectly. I walked down the street and wondered if I should fly to, or teleport to Kami's Lookout. I decided I would fly, but I needed to make it day time in order to find it in the sky.

I took out my Ocarina and tried playing the Sun's Song. The first time I accidentally played Epona's Song. I tried again, this time I hit the correct notes. The sun came up but then set right away and I heard the wolf sound that accompanies that in the game. I played it again, this time it came up and the morning sound came on. It was bright and now more stable. I decided to start running before taking off. I gained a lot of speed and ended up running through a restaurant. Suddenly, something on my peripheral vision caught my attention, I thought Goku was there. I stopped and looked to my left; it was just a fat guy cosplaying Goku. His hair was really silly.

I went outside and took off. I was flying through the sky and saw many "fake" lookouts; they were floating structures similar to Kami's Lookout, but they were small, square, or simply flat without any structures built on them. I kept flying and finally spotted Korin's Tower in the distance. I flew towards it and then started climbing it. I could just fly next to it, but I am a climber and thought it would be more appropriate to climb it. I noticed the indigenous designs on the tower, they seemed like the ones from the cartoon.


I reached Korin's House. He was once again just leaning against a wall, holding his staff and eyes closed. I called out his name, his ears moved the way a cat's ears move when they hear something. He walked towards me and smacked me in the head with his staff. I laughed and jumped on his house's roof. I pulled out Goku's red staff, placed it on the ground, and held on to it as it extended towards Kami's Lookout





I reached Kami's Lookout and climbed the ladder. I was on the side opposite to the main house. I walked across and reached the house. I went inside; once again Mr Popo received me. He gave me a wetsuit this time and told me to go through a door to get ready. Once inside I noticed a lot of my friends were there. I lost some lucidity. I wondered where Goku was. Mr Popo told me we were all going to be competing, and the winner would then get to train with Goku. I kept using my dream powers to do stuff like putting on the wet suit instantly, also made an annoying guy disappear. We were instructed to go to the lounge room. My friend Cali and I led the group to one of the adjacent domes, where we assumed the Lounge room was.






I became lucid again. Inside we were received by random DCs and were told we had to jump down to the surface and come back up. My adrenaline levels went up, this was my opportunity to get to train with Goku. We ran and jumped off the edge. As I was free falling, I lost my dream body and was now in 3rd person. This allowed me to fall faster by "zooming in" into the surface. Once I reached the surface I saw Trunks and Piccolo talking. I inhabitted Trunk's body, and then used Goku's teleportation to get back to Kami's Lookout. It was a tie between Steven and I. We were instructed to fight inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Mr Popo led us inside, and then closed the door.

Can't remember what happened afterwards, but I probably had a FA.
I will try to train with Goku once more, and if that doesn't happen I will move on to beating Zelda Dungeons. This was one of the longest LDs I've ever had. I probably forgot a lot of details when I lost lucidity; I had a couple more dreams after this one and I hadn't written anything down.

Lucid
Side note
Non-lucid

Pretty cool lucid, can't remember all of it though.




I gained spontaneously lucidity. It was a very bright day and I was on a trampoline. My sister was talking to me. She kept annoying me so I created a laser from my finger and shined it in her eyes. It acted more like a red-dot laser and a small flashlight simultaneously. I made a cranking motion with my other hand and it became brighter. She left me alone after that. My lucidity levels dropped and suddenly it snowed really hard making several feet of snow.

I kept trying to create a tool to melt the snow but it didn't work. I walked into my house but it was super dark even though it had windows. This was a past dream sign of mine, and every time it turned out really bad so I walked outside again. I tried “grabbing” it from the corner but expectation just wasn't helping. I decided to run right through the wall of snow and felt the sting of the cold on my face. It significantly raised my lucidity so I tried to summon the tool again. I first started by creating a pen out of thin air. I managed to actually create it inside my vision giving me confidence of my dream control. Then I imagined the pen turning into a tool.

The snow levitated from the ground and then digitized around the staff forming new parts of it slowly. In the end I was left with this weird red stick with a small black figure of an elephant. I used it to melt the snow and create new snow. My sister seemed vaguely impressed in the background. It had tons of buttons all over it so I pressed one randomly and it created a bunch of bees.

I panicked and pressed a “world reset” button. It brought the world back to the way it was before I had changed it so I dived into the snow again. Afterwards I slowly lost lucidity until I had almost none at all. The dream changed into a portal-like game I was trying to solve with an underworld theme. After doing that for about three minutes I spontaneously forced myself to wake up, so that I wouldn't forget this lucid.

I am talking to my cousin and telling her that I am surprise she and my brother are living with me. My brother tells me goodnight and I say night back to him. My cousin demands me to close the door for her, so I decided to just do it and I remember the door being odd to me. Infact the entire place seemed different to me, it look like a japanese traditional place than the actual homes I am familiar with. But I didn't put much thought about it. As continue walking down the hallway while thinking that was rude. I get interrupted by seeing the entire environment change infront my eyes.

I am now inside a car on the backseat and for some reason I couldn't move. There is a man in one of the front seats with a dark grey beanie turnbing his head to look directly at me. I kept trying to move but this weird sensation kept coming over me that felt like it was preventing me from moving. I was lucid at this point but could not do anything. Eventually I just lost awareness due to not focusing.

Guess I should get back to posting here more often. Anyway, I got quite a number of dreams to note, including two DILDs, one non-LD, and two fragments. I'm pretty sure the full non-LD was at least two dreams, but I never detected any awakenings from them. Depending on how specific the criteria is, I might have also accomplished a TOTM task. Furthermore, I'll paraphrase the non-LD to save space.

Scrap Group 1
Playing Duelyst, switching between Vetruvian and Vanar. I accrued consecutive losses, mostly due to my opponents having a plethora of high value gold cards. I complain about the "pay2win" model of trading card games to Marcus.

Dream 1 - Tournament, Wilderness, Shoes, and Work

Scene 1 - Are Pocket TV's Still a Thing?
Game tournament in an assembly room. TV's on tables by the walls. Many people. My brother, Marcus is there. Encounter an old gaming bud, Mordecai, who'd a ridiculously tall blowout hairstyle. He almost cried for losing a money match. Some guy is watching a pocket TV, laughing. Shows me footage taking place on a dirt road overlooking a forest clearing at daytime. Colorful chicken and short, squat black cattle are there. An angry bull tackled a large rock, which rolled down and squashed one of the birds. Transition.

Scene 2 - Wild Herds
At the clearing described above in the afternoon. Cattle there, along with many people and my brother. Reach a lake past some thickets, then went to a beach briefly. Walking back uphill. An agitated bull tackles some guy. It kicks and headbutts dirt. I try crawling away. Marcus alerted me to a herd of wild elephants that suddenly appeared. Some almost stepped on me. I scurry to the lake unscathed. Blacking out. Felt waves crashing on me. Worried I went too far. Transition.

Scene 3 - I Knew Those Weren't My Shoes...
At home, going upstairs. Both Marcus and I are surprised I made it out of the previous conflict alive alive. See it's dawn out my bedroom window. Figured we didn't sleep. Female calls from below. Unknown woman with auburn hair and dressed in a dark blue uniform. Supposedly Marcus' girlfriend or wife. She's angry he stayed out and makes demands of him. In bedroom. Two pairs of shoes in doorway. One seemed as a pair of Converses I own, but they were black, too big, and had their soles intact. Very confused. Uncertain transition.

Scene 4 - No Admin Privileges
Back at my old job in the gas station. Different arrangements. Counters in the center formed as a circle. Newer computers, but antiquated Windows 98 software. Old boss, Michael, set up a profile for me. Unwittingly set me as an admin. I try correcting this, but have trouble. Another co-worker, Johanna, tried helping, but gives up quickly. Noticed a few odd names. One was "Amuth-", a cut off misspelling of "Amethyst", I thought. Muttered lewd joke of name under my breath. Found new co-workers behind me, all Hispanic women of varying ages. Finally corrected my profile by deleting and remaking the old one. Wake up.

Scrap Group 2

Went up and down the wooden stairs of a narrow, unknown home. This directly relates to the dream below.

Dream 2 - Wonder What's in the Photo Album?

The visuals were slightly blurred. I was in similar home described a mess. Various boxes were scattered around.

Soon, I meet up with a white haired, bespectacled little old white haired lady. She was constantly squinting, hinting bad eyesight even with glasses. The lady beckons I follow her upstairs so I could see a photo album. But first, she asked me to clear a few things from the stairs, including various boxes and a filled laundry basket.

While moving these, a thin, dark haired, college aged Asian girl enters with a box full of random stuff, a supposed "friend" of mine. She seemed awfully grumpy. I wanted to introduce her, but forgot her name entirely. So, I nervously asked her if she'd a nickname, which merely earned me a deep glare. This somehow helped me figure out the dream state. "I know", I said, "I'll just call you [my Dream Guide], 'E' then." The girl rolled her eyes and ignored me. Somehow, I feel I shoulda known that from the beginning.

Then, a young female voice calls from upstairs. Oh, yeah, the photo album. Maybe there's something important worth looking at there. I creeped away from the other two. When I looked back, they were gone. That's weird... Oh, well. I was making my way upstairs, when the scenery began fading. Tried rubbing my hands, but that did little. The dream ended abruptly.

Dream 3 - Reach In and Out

The visuals were pretty clear. I was back at my old job at the gas station, this time appearing more or less as in reality. Johanna and Michael working behind the registers and cooking area, respectively. I gained awareness almost instantly.

First, I strolled around to thoroughly look at things. Seemed my co-workers were frustrated, so I just left them be. I took notice of the roller grill, which was placed where the hot drinks would be. Anyway, there were two sets of hot dogs in place, one pinkish, and the other deep red. I horked down the former kind. Needed salt. That's a first. The second type was a little spicier, but still kinda bland. Both types vanished with but a few bites.

Next, I moved on to bringing E by grasping behind me and calling out to her. I made numerous attempts in different parts of the store without results. I took a peak outside, where I saw a clear dawn. Noticed a line was forming, where I found a tall Asian lady that seemed an older version of the DC in the above dream. Where I should've identified her as my guide, I instead continued that previous hand trick. I felt something momentarily, but found nothing when I turned around.

Concurrently, I recalled the pocket task. I reached inside with my left, and felt something thin and flimsy. I pulled it out, and yep, it was a stick of gum, the wrapping quite worn out. So, I unwrapped and chewed it, this being of the stronger mint variety. Just then, some other random food item got stuck in between. This distracted me enough to destabilize the environment. I tried hand rubbing, but the dream ended abruptly.
