      Lucid #212: The Guadalupe Airport

      I’m in a cafe talking to an art student in his early 20s as he walks out the door. I’m complimenting him on some piece of digital art that I saw in his online portfolio when I realize that I can’t remember his name. I ask and he says, “It’s Bradley,” as we shake hands. I think that this is a student in my 3-year-old son’s class, somehow all grown up.

      Bradley leaves and I just stand there, confused about how this much time has passed. After a brief mental struggle, I realize that these facts just don’t fit together and
      I become lucid.

      I spend a few moments looking around at the DCs in the cafe but they all seem fairly generic. I don’t have goals in mind and I’m anxious that I’ll waste the experience, so I head through the first door that I see, winding up in a bathroom. Somebody flushes from one of the stalls. I am not spending a lucid dream listening to people flush toilets, I think, and head back out through the bathroom, back through the cafe, and out into a mall.

      I’m feeling less passive now and I try hard to remember what my goals were. Somehow I dredge up that a Task of the Month is to keep repeating whatever a DC says to you. I approach a balding, blonde-haired guy with glasses in his early 40s. He’s wearing a t-shirt that says something about the Windows registry and he’s looking at me like he wants to tell me something.

      “Talk to me!” I say.

      He happily launches into an explanation of something about computers, but he’s speaking too rapidly for me to follow. I eventually start catching him mid-sentence. “If you have a memory block that…” and I babble back “If you have a memory block that!”

      He scowls at the interruption. “You know what? I don’t think you’re actually into this!” And with that, he turns and walks away, looking offended.

      I continue on, drifting through the crowd. I spot one guy that’s unusually tall and for some reason get the nasty impulse to mess with him. I kick him in the right shin and he falls forward, stopping just short of hitting the ground. Then he rises back up, looking angry and annoyed. “Sorry, that was stupid,” I say, scurrying away from him. He floats after me for a moment but I make an effort to think about other things as I evade him, flying down an escalator to the first floor.

      I move through a relatively empty hallway, worrying for a moment about whether I’ll be able to remember what’s happened in the dream and take a moment to reflect on how cool this is.

      Now I’m back in the main thoroughfare with the crowd. I spot two attractive women nearby, both Indian, one in her mid-twenties, the other in her mid-forties. I fly past them and they say something about going to Las Vegas. I want to impress them for some reason so I boast that I’m having a lucid dream and could travel to Las Vegas instantly. They laugh nervously and sort of edge away.

      I say something like, “Here, I’ll show you!” and start flying away, slightly out of control. There’s an open chunk in the ceiling and I pass through it, turning and flailing a bit. Somehow I find myself flying along an airport runway at night. I hear “¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe!” by The Killers playing over what sounds like a clock radio and I worry that a morning alarm is going off. I fly up to a tall column of carved stone in the middle of the runway and reach out to touch it
      as the dream ends.
    2. And so we meet again lucidity... [08/06/14]

      by , 06-08-2014 at 09:46 AM (My lucid comeback!)
      Alright! I had a lucid dream tonight after doing a WBTB and SSILD, if I can get frequent results using SSILD it will become my main technique for induction. I really don't know why or how it works but I look forward to next night.

      1. Killer planes...

      I was with some friends near a wall and next to the wall were seats, there was an opening in the wall were a small plane frequently flew through. We wanted to sit as close as possible to the hole so the plane would barely miss us, one friend sat so close the plane near smashed his head but he said I shouldn't worry.

      2. Alright lucid, and now what?
      * (SSILD)

      I was flying above a pine forest and suddenly I know it's a dream, I land in the forest and the pine trees are red and orange. On the ground level the water is 1 meter high and I do an RC to check, as I plug my nose and breath in I can clearly feel the cold air going down my throat. Suddenly I'm quiet worried of the fact I'm standing in water. (IRL I really don't like standing in water while I don't know what's in it...) A large waves formes and throws me off balance, as I go under I get teleported to a place I can't remember but it was urban. There I did the nose plug RC over and over cause I just couldn't believe it was true, then I looked at my hands and saw they were deformed. I tried flying several times but failed, after that I tested myself with some basic questions... "How old am I?", which I answered wrong cause I said "I'm 15 years old.", while actually I'm 16. DERP! For some reason after many failed attempts of flying I got bored for some reason and woke myself up. (I feel stupid now, I could've done more things...) I was suddenly in my bedroom and it was Sunny outside. Then I fell asleep again and woke up ones again but now it was raining. I got out and asked my sister who was already awake "Has it been that grey for whole the morning?", she said yes and I knew I had an FA... I should really do an RC everytime I get up now.

      One thing to note is that last year when had a DJ I had my first LD after 8 entries and this time I had an LD again after 8 entries... according to the other DJ I should now have a night without an LD and then I should have a night with an LD again. Let's hope I can break the chain and become lucid tonight already!

    3. "Details"

      by , 06-08-2014 at 01:57 AM (A Dreamer's Dreams)
      Journal Entry Lucid #51 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
      Background: Meditated before going to sleep.

      Lucid Dream #51, day: 06/07/14, time: 4:11-5:14am" Details":
      I remember I had a nail and a hammer in my hand. I looked at my left hand and it had a nail inside of it.I then take it out and I try to put it into my feet. It was painful. After taking it out I looked at my hands and realized that there is no hole in my hands. I made sense out of it by saying that the nail was so small that it closed up quickly. I am in my childhood home when I was 6 years old. I see my sister. I start talking to her. I hear someone in the bathroom. I told her that I could hear someone in the bathroom. She responded, "Yes that is me".
      I knew it was a dream now. I then tried to focus my attention on details for this dream. I was telling her about piercing myself. I saw the wooden cabinets and I noticed that there is no mirrors. I see white paint smeared on the wooden cabinets. I began washing my hands, after turning off everything I left. I see a guy from the church, YE. He is a short man that is bold. I tried to ignore him but thought about the strangeness of him being in my dream. I saw a marble floor. I went downstairs. It was the weirdest stairs they had a twist in them that seems to define logic. I then went to a kitchen area that previously didn't exist. Inside it was huge. I then touched the table. It felt slippery. A quick look and I realized that I didn't wipe my hands upstairs after washing. I laughed at the details my dream put into it. I then grabbed a towel. It felt foamy like after shave. I see a men walking back. I said to sister loudly as if I can't hear myself, "I DO NOT KNOW HIM". I could barely hear her, she whispered, "No, ignore him". He then stopped to look at me. I believed he felt what I felt. He knew it and I knew it, I am waking up. My sister's voice is diminishing because I am waking up.

    4. "Confusion"

      by , 06-08-2014 at 12:52 AM (A Dreamer's Dreams)
      Journal Entry Lucid #50 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
      Background:
      I meditate and woke up for WBTB. I meditated again and went to sleep.

      Lucid Dream #50, day: 06/03/14, time: 4:27-5:20am" Confusion":
      I am in the house. I see my dad is in the kitchen making some food for my mother. I am hyper active running around the house. At first completely unaware of the bright pink lights that makes it look like a club. My sister woke up. she came out of her room drowsy. I jumped around and I thought this feels like a dream.
      I then do a R.C, but it failed. I didn't accept it though since I knew it was a dream. I looked at my hand watch and it says 9:15 and I look away and back it reads 9:10. It was fairy close. I went to our backyard. The house look so 'real'. I am too focused on the idea that it could be real that I didn't think about it as 'dream'. I went to the wall outside and I wanted to create a portal. I turn and look back to see no portals. I try again and again. My sister calls me and tells me that I am losing my mind and I need to stop LD. Little by little getting increasingly confused. With further confusion the dream destabilized. I went further into my backyard. With out the confusion I could have been aware enough. I didn't have a door in my back yard. I tried to open it and it wouldn't open at first. I couldn't even recognize that I went into 3rd person perspective. I didn't like it at all I wanted to wake up. They come out and told me to follow them. I didn't want to. I instead willed myself to wake up.

      What convinced me that it was "real" was not the logic in the dream, but the confusion. Confusion gets rid of the clarity that lucidity offers.

    5. Meteorites Strike Ocean

      by , 06-07-2014 at 11:18 PM (A Dreamer's Dreams)
      Journal Entry Lucid #49 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
      Background:I do not normally attempt Task of the Month because I don't like the thought of failure. This was on a monday morning. Mondays are normally not a LD dreaming day for me.
      ToTM: June 2014 Advanced II
      Lucid Dream #49, day: 06/02/14, time: 6:09-7:59am" Meteorite Strike Ocean":
      I was having a very vivid dream about being shot. I don't actually remember being shot but I do remember trying to take out the bullet. I was looking at my arm trying to take it out. My family was bothering me. I thought I just want to experience feeling a bullet in a dream and I can't.

      That's when it clicked. I started heading out. My body was hard to control at first. I thought about doing the task of the month but I didn't want to drop a meteorite unto a city so I wanted to do next to some body of water. I opened the back door to the house and it served as a portal to an island. It was a tropical island, had trees and stuff. I didn't think too much about the summoning of the meteorite, I just believed that it will show up. I lifted my hands and strike it down. I see 20+ meteorite come towards the ocean splitting the clouds open with fire. I see ships ahead. I hear someone behind me say hurry you are going to miss it. I started to fly. At one point I nearly went into the water and I became terrified since I can't swim very well in waking life. I shook off the fear and concentrated on the meteorites. As they were about to hit the ocean's floor I hear this high pitch frequency and it was painful to hear. When they hit the ocean it wasn't anything dramatical. It had waves but it wasn't as big as I thought it would be. One of the meteorite levitated out of the water. I see Iron man show up and take it. He took it back to the shore. I wanted to see what was inside. He opened it up and I saw a robot. It was black with blue neon glowing lights on it. I started flying and shortly after I woke up. I don't know if I was suppose to go underwater to investigate the ocean but at the time I did what I thought was right. I was pretty happy with the outcome.

    6. Flying and Telekinesis

      by , 06-07-2014 at 11:00 PM (A Dreamer's Dreams)
      Journal Entry Lucid #48 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
      Background:

      Lucid Dream #48, day: 06/01/14, time: 4:04-5:26am" Flying and Telekinesis":
      I see a flood and I question if it was a dream. I did a R.C and wished for it to work and it did.
      I became fully lucid. The rain subsided after a while. I touched the floor, it was wet and cold. I got on top of a desk that was just in the middle of an apartment complex. I turn around and I see another desk with computers on it. A women shoed up on the desktop of the computer. She started to talk. I didn't care to listen. I just wanted to cause havoc. I levitated the desk that had the computer and threw it. It hit something and violently spin out of control. I picked up the desk with TK and broke it into two pieces and threw it. I see my friend AN and Big AN. They were just looking at me, cheering me on. I wanted to see how well I could fly and use telekinesis. I started to fly and I levitated the desk. At first it was ok, but I realized in order for me to fly I need to be aware of the sensation of flight and in order to use telekinesis I need my mind to do it. So I had to switch back and forth from the two. It was pretty difficult and I started to come down from the air and the telekinesis stopped as well. It felt like I drained my "awareness". I couldn't keep up to the sensations. My friends were cheering me on. I saw a cabinet made of glass and I wanted to break the glass behind them. I cringed my hands and it didn't work. My friends asked, "what are you doning?" I told them to back away. They kept walking towards me. I tried to levitate them away. AN said, "we're your friends". I tried again, it merely pushed them. They grabbed me and AN got me in a bear hug. They then get the lady that was talking on the computer. I was sure they were either going to kill her or worse, and I didn't want that to be a LD experience i have so I woke up.

    7. Attacked; TotM

      by , 06-07-2014 at 10:12 PM (Zukin's Dream Journal! <3)
      The Family Feast

      I was at a dinner table with my family. I must have been little, because I was sitting on a dictionary as a booster seat. I looked around and my grandpa was there. He passed away about 5 months ago, so I knew that I was dreaming. I did a reality check to confirm. I decided not to stay here, so I walked out the door and flew away. I decided to go and find James, using my house method as before. Well, suddenly I was interrupted.

      "Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuukin!!!" A girl screamed out from below.

      "Huhh??" I thought. That was unexpected. I flew down from the sky to investigate.

      Suddenly, I was being attacked by a woman with a HUGE knife. The surprise caused the dream to destabilize and
      I woke up, dammit.

      Task of the Month

      I was at home, when I noticed an alarm going off in the dining room. I looked at the time - 5:50pm already? No...it couldn't be. I did a reality check - dreaming. After being attacked, I wasn't in the mood to find James anymore, so I decided to do the Task of the Month. I couldn't remember exactly what it was, but I did remember reading someone's entry about repeating what their DC said, so I decided to try that one.

      I walked to the living room, and found my target: my friend's girlfriend.

      Me: "Hey"

      Her: "Hey"

      Me: "Hey"

      Her: "...Sup?"

      Me: "Sup"

      Her: "...HEY SUP WHATEVER"

      Me: "HEY SUP WHATEVER"

      Her: "SKLJSLKSD" *speaking in tongues*

      Me: "SKLJSLKSD" *speaking in tongues*

      She caught on to what I was doing and twisted it, the little bitch.

      Her: "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh YYEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS," she moaned.

      God dammit

      Me: "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh YYEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!"

      Her: "Oh my god! You're SO INAPPROPRIATE, Zukin!!" She yelled and stormed off.
    8. Nonsensical missile, flying and a mountain panorama

      by , 06-06-2014 at 11:07 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      My last lucid was already weeks or months ago, and my last lucid with good control and details was defnitely months ago.

      It began with some kind of event, it was night and there were many people in something like a stadium. There was some kind of woman with a deo-spray goblet (WTF...) on a pedestal, closely surrounded by people. During this part of the dream I was not yet existent and only observed. The woman flew away with a missile and some dude clung to her missile with a rope. He wanted to get up to her, there was some dialog I could remember, but honestly it was pretty nonsensical stuff, like comments from the dude about the age of the woman. He eventually stopped on a clocktower or something, held the missile and let it rotate around the tower so it would speed up and he could get up to the woman. The physics here we're pretty broken.

      Eventually one of them, the dude I think, dropped down from the missile into the city. I then assumed his position, searching for the woman, but there was no one anywhere in the city. I came around a corner, it was day again, the street was empty, and there were boring buildings to both sides of the street. My mind suddenly became a lot more clear, I wanted to do a reality check, but considering the events that previously happened
      I knew that I was dreaming and no RC was necessary. Instead I focussed on stabilizing, imagined wings, flapped my arms and started to fly, immediately it was like the gravity was largely negated for me. I couldn't properly imagine the wings but kept on trying to train myself a little. When I flew up I got to see an absolutely astonishing panorama of nature with mountains and greenery, the closest mountain had a sharp stone peak at the top, but none of the mountains were covered with snow or something like that. I could see at least as good as in reality, maybe even a little better. I kept flying for many minutes until my mind got clouded a tiny little bit again. I flew into a building, probably a school, and there I met a particular weird monster with a magic wand (both from UT2k4, the so called magic wand is a different version of the shock rifle). It fired at someone and I planned to rob the weapon from it, but then I lost my focus on the dream for a moment and woke up. It somehow was similar to dropping something out of carelessness, I might've been able to continue the dream otherwise I guess.

      Unfortunately I didn't remember any of the things I wanted to do in my lucids, and so only flew around.
    9. Unsatisfactory Lucid Meteor - Chicken-Kicker

      by , 06-06-2014 at 03:15 PM
      I can't quite remember a prior dream, except one snippet:

      I was in a forest, and on one side of the way stood small children in a row, all in white night-gown-like dress, and Jesus, similarly dressed and with pale halo, was walking past them and giving some sort of special blessing. I believe there were other religious leaders there as well, doing different blessings. It was a pretty picture. Like a Catholic devotional painting.

      Anyway - next dream - I was taking care of a store, while the owner wasn't there, and a friend of his turned up - a woman, seemingly under some sort of stress, and she asked me if I would let her in - the shop-owner would have promised her, she could store her stuff in the back.
      What she brought in was hilarious - a kicker-table with huge chickens as players and a washing machine on a leash - rolling in on its own.

      Later I was on the laptop with her - looking for night-clubs to go out to. We came upon a youtube video with recommendations, and suddenly I was in the video. That managed to make me lucid - and like usual - first I flew about a bit and enjoyed that. Then I came down and summoned a meteor for the TOTM. Optics were great this time - no problems whatsoever.

      Something of the size of a football came down from the sky, really fast, and I was pretty pleased with myself - looking forward to major catastrophic events with flood wave and earth crust igniting and whatnot.
      Nope - the thing bounced off the ground several times, and when I followed it - it was a simple harmless football.
      Damn.

      I was looking down at this model of the start of a maze. There was this figure of some sort there, and I thought "I should try to go into that maze myself"... concentrated a bit and boom, I was lucid, in this small room. I examined my hands and was excited by how detailed they were, I could see all the lines in my palms. I then had a look around and left this small room into a larger one. I think it was like a video game, with various monster types coming at me. Shortly they changed slightly to look more like people in costumes, and I had a sword that was like a wide cardboard tube. One was very close by this time so I stuck my tube sword into it, with little effect. I then held up my hand going for some fire-like ability or something, but nothing happened. There were several all around me at this point, so I shouted "ok, I give up" and they stopped, pulled off their masks and showed that it was just people. The dream ended shortly after.

    11. The Bag Lady

      by , 06-06-2014 at 05:51 AM
      This lucid is from the morning of 5/19/2014. (I think so at least. I'm embarrassed to say that my records got spotty right here.)

      Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

      Lucid #211: The Bag Lady

      I’m high up on a hotel walkway that encircles an atrium. The room’s huge and bustles with people. I see a group of familiar people from my life seated in plush, comfy-looking chairs and realize that I’m dreaming.

      I walk up to “Cyclone”, a friend from high school that I occasionally catch up with. I try to explain to him that I’m having a lucid dream. He’s trying to respond but I’m confused and unable to understand what he’s trying to say. As I grow frustrated by this,
      the dream fades into a false awakening.

      I get up from what I believe is a hotel room and walk out to the street. I’m someplace that looks like New York City and it’s early morning. I walk out onto a brick-lined path toward another building. Maybe 30 feet away, there’s a bad lady standing near a little planter that looks like it contains a vegetable garden.

      She seems to notice me and comes staggering over. I hope she won’t approach and try to scurry cowardly away. As I do this, she lets out a blood-curdling scream and starts flying after me. I feel a combination of embarrassment at my wimpy reaction and outright fear that I’m about to get mauled on the street. Her hand grabs my shoulder and I think that come on, this has got to be a dream. What a relief that
      it is in fact a dream!

      The bag lady screams in my face and grabs at my chest and shoulders with clawlike fingers. I’m not feeling very calm at this point, but I try to calm her down by saying “Shhhhh…” and raising my hands in as nonconfrontational a gesture as I can manage.

      She seems to settle down and I notice she looks a fairly normal person now. She’s in her late 30s, wearing a hood and shawl. Kind of cute-ish, even. Her teeth are still bared but now she just looks like she’s upset rather than truly demonic. For some reason I start kissing her, and she seems to calm down completely.

      I hear another scream from nearby and I see a second dangerous-looking bag lady quickly approaching. Time to go. I make for the building entrance, a simple looking glass door into what looks like a darkened school hallway.

      As I make my way down the hallway, nobody follow. That’s a relieft. I emerge from the hallway into what looks like ground floor fo the hotel atrium I’d been in before. I wonder if I can make my way back up, but
      the dream ends before I can find out.

    12. Low Altitude Superman

      by , 06-06-2014 at 05:33 AM
      This lucid is from the morning of 5/16/2014.

      Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

      Lucid #210: Low Altitude Superman

      I’m standing in a slow-moving line at a bank. The guy in front of me is getting agitated and he starts screaming at the teller to “Hurry it up!” He gesticulates wildly and shrieks “Goddamn!” I start getting a little stressed, thinking this could turn into a situation. I vaguely hope that it’s all a dream and lucky me, it is!

      The angry man seems to calm down and I wander outside through a set of automatic doors. It’s nighttime and I’m in standing in a covered, circular entrance driveway like you might find in front of some hospitals and hotels.

      I boast to the nearby DCs that “this is a lucid dream” and then start flying. I hover about two feet off of the ground, barely moving. I punch my fist forward Superman-style, hoping that this will somehow cause something awesome to happen because these DCs don’t seem especially impressed.

      My speed starts really picking up and soon I’m rocketing around the circular drive at knee height. This tends to freak the DCs out as I get close. I zoom around, faster and faster, seeing how far I can push my speed. I have a great time with this until
      the dream ends.

    13. Blue Pool // Circus // Don't Tell My Mom // Rest Stop // Dog Fight

      by , 06-06-2014 at 02:48 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      June 05, 2014




      Whoa, 6 Dreams (well, some Dreams and some Fragments) remembered!

      Blue Pool

      I was with Zukin and some people who claimed to be high-level Dreamers, and we were sitting on a sofa, talking about Lucid Dreaming (funny that we were talking about it but I didn't realize I was dreaming). Then we all moved to a room that was a pool. The whole room was a giant pool with a walkway down the middle. The tiles in the pool were mostly deep blue with some red ones. There were signs being made (like actual signs. Road signs.) somewhere in the room. They were popping out of a conveyor on the other side of the wall.

      I think I might have realized I was dreaming, but I woke up immediately. If I did realize, it didn't last long.




      Circus!

      I was a kid again in this dream. Maybe 10-14 years old. My dad and brothers were going to a circus. We walked into the lobby of the building it was in (it was on some upper floor of a large building). There were three other children there, with their guardian (I wasn't sure if it was their parent or not) in the lobby.

      We got into the elevator, the walls of which were lined with that yellow foamy insulator you find in crawl spaces and whatnot.

      We got out of the elevator and then sat down in this little play corner that was actually the seats for the audience. You were supposed to climb up to any seat we wanted. It's a bit hard to describe, but think of side-scrolling video games where there are ledges you have to jump up to and whatnot. So I'm trying to get up to the perfect seat, but I can't reach it.



      Then there were two fractions of dreams: One about playing my music over speakers, and another about sleeping downstairs in my laundry room. I was only wearing underwear (no bra) because it was really hot, and my dad came in and got all embarrassed. But I was still half asleep and still tired so I threw on a shirt and went to sleep in the car, since we were going somewhere that day. My mom was already sleeping in the back, so I just curled up in the passenger seat.




      Just Don't Tell my Mom, Okay?

      I was a student in a classroom, high school, I think. We were in the middle of class, and two punks had barged in; They were pushing my classmates around, badmouthing everyone, and extorting money from them and being general jerks. Eventually I got fed up with it and yelled at them from across the room, "You two need to GET. OUT."

      One of them got all bashful and apologized, getting ready to leave, but the other (the taller one) just stood in the door way with his arms crossed over his chest, glaring down his nose at me. I planted my feet and glared right back (I am short, so this must have been hilarious to watch), until he averted his gaze and then left, grumbling.

      About an hour later, another punk came to my classroom, and yelled, "Which Bitch is that told my boys to leave?!" Like an idiot, I stood up and said, "It was me." The guy looked like a Gangster Pimp.

      He took me out in the hall and I felt like he was gong to beat me, so I started to run away. I felt like a rabbit being chased by a wolf, and it felt hopeless. It felt like no matter where I ran, he would find me, and then beat me, rape me, verbally abuse me, who knows what.

      I eventually got to a door leading out of the building. It opened to a slope, exactly like the one Zukin and I slid down on our butts in Austria. It was steep and the soil was dry, and there were trees scattered sparsely. I slid down the slope, using the trees as check-points of a sort to control my path downward. I got to the bottom and looked up to see if he was following. He was inside still, I could see him glaring down at me from inside the door. It had started to rain, so I assumed that he wouldn't come out in order to keep his clothes clean (Or rather, his voice was in my head saying "The only reason I'm not going and getting you out there is to keep my clothes dry, bitch."). I started running to my left, and turned when the building made a corner. Around the corner was another door into the building. I figured I would go in and try to get a teacher. As I ran toward the door, to my right I heard a voice say, "You don't have to run. You have the power to manipulate him." I turned to see a man floating in the air. It looked like he was sitting in an invisible throne in the air. He had on clothes that appeared kinda jester-like. But more ragged. Colorful patches everywhere, a funny hat. His hair was long, for a guy, and messy. He has a sing-songy voice.

      I ignored what he said because the Gangster Pimp was going to kill me if I didn't keep running. I keep running, and I almost reach the door, but the Gangster Pimp comes out of a door a little further down and starts running after me. It's still raining, but we're under an awning now. I'm no longer safe, in the rain.

      I try to reach the door but he catches me just before I get there and corners me. "I'll teach you to mess with my boys!" He threatened, cracking his knuckles.
      "I didn't touch them! All I did was make them leave!"
      He hit me on the left side of my face. "Shut up, bitch! I'm a pimp and I protect my boys!"
      I didn't know what else to do, so I started begging and apologizing. "I'm sorry, okay? I won't do it again! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Just don't hit me again...!"
      And then out of the corner of my eye, I saw one of my old high school teachers coming outside. "Help! Help, Hafer! Mr. Hafer! This guy...!" But he didn't hear me at all, or else ignored me (which he wouldn't do; he was one of the best teachers I had in high school). He walked back inside, and I felt so alone.

      The Gangster Pimp raised his hand like he was going to hit me again, and I yelled, "You would hit a girl like that?!"
      Suddenly he got all sheepish. "D-don't say it like that!" He stammered.
      Suddenly I was scolding him. "And this is a new piercing. Do you know how much it hurts to get hit over a new piercing?!"
      "I'm sorry..."
      "And besides you should be in class!"
      "Yes Ma'am..."
      "Before that, go apologize to my classmates for disrupting our learning!"
      "Don't tell my mom about this, okay...?"
      We walk back to the tree-slope door for some reason, instead of taking the door right next to us. We wait under the overhang until the rain clears, to keep his clothes clean. Once it was clear, we start walking, and to my left, still where he had been before, was the jester-man, who had much the same feeling as The Face at the end of one of my previous dreams. He smiled (though it was more of a smirk) and said, "Told you." Then he vanished. I noticed then that the rain hadn't been falling on him; there was a circle of dry pavement around where he'd been.

      After getting back to my class, like right after the Gangster Pimp leaves, I got a text from him asking if I wanted to go to a rap concert with him. I don't know how he got my number.

      Then I either woke up or faded into the next dream...



      Rest Stop of Creepy

      I was on a car trip with my Dad, Erik, Bob, WW (my grandpa) and my uncle Nick. I don't know why my mom wasn't there. We were driving in some place with mountains and open prairie/almost desert. We stopped at a rest stop to get some things and while we were browsing, this weird man enters the store, and asks random people if he can buy them random junk from the store. He asked me if he could buy me some canned peaches and I said no. I kept saying no but he kept asking about other things he could buy me. Eventually I got him to go away, and picked up a chocolate milk, bringing it to my dad to pay for while I went to the bathroom.

      When I got out, I tried to find my family but they had left without me. I knew where we were going, so I figured I would just walk to catch up with them. I texted them to wait for me somewhere up the road, and turned out to the road. I went left (I get the feeling I was going west... but I'm directionally challenged so I don't know if that is true).

      I passed a couple buildings on a hill to my left. At some point I met a woman who handed me a box of water bottles and some paper cups, telling me to "keep strong." I was starting to panic because the sun was setting and I could hear some animals off in the distance. I had gotten out of the woodsy hills and was now in an open, relatively flat, prairie area. There were huge, majestic mountains to my right. It looked a little like the Tetons look from the road. I got to another hilly area and checked my phone to see if anyone had responded to my texts. Then I rounded a corner and found the van sitting at a lookout with a door open, waiting for me to jump in. I was pissed at them all and didn't speak to any of them for the rest of the ride.



      Dog Fights

      I was at Oma and Grandpa's house (in the living room with big windows), talking to my grandpa about his past. My family and some dogs I didn't know were playing outside in the back yard.

      Through the windows, I saw a pack of three foxes, larger than any normal fox, circle the group, as if hunting. I tried to warn my family, but they couldn't hear me from inside. Then, one of the foxes jumped at Erik, but he ducked just in time and didn't get hurt. Everyone starts yelling and the foxes run away. They were literally hopping/jumping as high as the trees, like Virginia (John Carter) in the movie. (Um, just sort of ignore that music in that video... There was loud music playing when I found the video. And then it lead to a hilarious moment when Zukin turned off her music and we both heard the music in this video for the first time)

      But after a few minutes, they come back with two large wolves. Then, all hell broke loose.
      There were suddenly a bunch of neighborhood dogs of all kinds, and the wolves and foxes were fighting the dogs. The dogs eventually fought off the wolves and foxes, but two of them were badly wounded. Their owners were there, and one of the really badly wounded ones, a newfie, was leaning on its owner and dying. It was really sad...

      Apparently, my grandpa had completely missed the whole thing. He's a bit deaf, so he hadn't heard any of the mayhem.

      Then I woke up.

      The morning of June 1st I had another lucid dream. I'll describe the start of it, but as most of my lucid dreams in the past (haven't had that many) I find I will go with the intent of exploring the dream world but lucidity will slip back into a normal dream consciousness...

      I became lucid in a dark, cloudy empty space - I don't remember there being a ground. Looking up I saw that there were several floating islands high above me, so wanted to go explore. I had spiderman-like webbing abilities, so shot some webs up into nothing that quickly pulled me upwards. Arriving at one of the islands I found a large, castle-like building that I entered to explore. About this time I was no longer lucid and it turned more into a regular dream.

      I joined this site on May 30th, so had read a fair amount about lucid dreaming and had it firmly on my mind. I wanted to have one that night, but alas, had none. The morning was a slow one, so I was able to go back to sleep several times with the intent of slipping into a lucid dream and: success!

      I slowly got out of bed, but realized as I did that I was leaving my physical body behind - I was dreaming! I moved to the door and thought, "There could be anything through this door, it doesn't need to be in my house" and went to explore. I opened the door to a wide hotel-style hallway with an older-style blue carpet with a diamond pattern. I walked to a T section, turned left and continued a little ways until I came to a more open area, with a steep stairway leading up on the far side of the room. Unfortunately, that was where the dream ended.
