#185 - Time unknown - DILD

I was going for WILD and I hit weak vibrations two separate times but I was disturbed by my wife the first time and lost concentration the second time.

I am in the yard at the old house in Luling, TX with my bro. There was something going on at the church but I can't remember now. Some man walks up talking to me. I suspect he is drunk so I smell his breath as he talks. He purposely talks heavy so that his breath is available for smelling. He has halitosis up no trace of alcohol. There is some conversation.

I go inside to look at something and close the door. There was a lot of panel glass on the exterior wall and door that should not be there. I turn around and really look at the old house. It has crappy siding but I remember brick. My brother is next to me again and I point and say, "That should be brick. I remember brick." Then gradually realize I am dreaming and remember that last time I wanted to burn the house down. I yell at my brother, "Quick! Light a match!" He instantly produces a lit match and it put it to the house. It goes out for a second but I concentrate on what a lit match looks like and it re-lights. I find a quart of motor oil and pour it on the fire. Then I think what I really need is gas. i look down and see a red plastic gas can. I pour the oil on it and the fire trails. I visualize the fire melting the plastic and watch. Jets of fire come spewing out and spread all over the house. The flames looks strange like some kind of fiery water.

Satisfied, I remember the TOTM. I feel like I am going to wake so I hurry. I look at my bro and quickly step into the fire. I feel the warm like an electric blanket is over me and I watch the fire spread from my legs up to my arms and hands. My brother is just standing there, looking at me dumbly. The dream fades but I don't wake up. I have some FA.
I am looking astronomical data. It feels like archived Kepler data. Someone says to look for some star system called "Xeno" "Xenous" Something like that. The dream morphs and at some point Justing Beiber is making out with me. I am outraged when I figure out what is going on and I call him all sorts of names. Britney Spears shows up talking to me like she knows me. I can smell her perfume. I find her attractive for the first time but I realize how much I don't like her and I sort of pity her. I think it is amazing that I am standing here in a Wal-Mart next to Britney and the Beibs. I become lucid but can't remember anything. I must have woke up or had another FA.

There was some dream about Nix and the feeling or lucidity when I woke up for the morning but I can't remember.

Dream recall from today's naps.

Nap #1(fragments):

I was doing something with a table, but flies were distracting me. Then later i was watching new yogscast video and they were apparently making video of some lame doom mod... which was also apparently made by me according to dream( ). The mod was pretty low quality and featured one tiny map with a bunch of various enemies, sprites of which looked like they were made in mspaint. It was some kind of arena with blue walls. They have somehow triggered enemies too quickly which made boss enemy appear, but exit opened by itself for some reason, so they just ended the level.
After watching i was going to nap. As i was falling asleep there were some weird voices then i felt some presence behind and some female voice. The dream started fading out, which made me realize that i am dreaming, i was about to get up from the bed but i could not stop it.

Nap #2(fragments):

There were news about an update for some game, we were discussing the good and bad sides of this update with SilentEternity. Then there was some farmland area in that game that i was exploring.
Later there was some kind of story about some artists and there was a task to hide inside one of their houses and spy on them, but nobody was doing it. Then it ended up with a weird music/song mix.

1 -st
We overslept to school, i was angry, we ran to school and I took my son into the classroom. I thought - strange...how can we oversleep? so i guess, that its a dream. there were a lot of doors and i desided to open them and look for Checker666 to ask him to demonstrate powers. First classroom was empty, when i entered to the second one i saw two guys. I asked - who of you is checker? One of them answered - its me! i said - demonstrate power! and he kicked his friend with the foot. I became to think how make this DC to fly or something else and awoke.
2-nd
I was in my room, realize that its a dream, went through the wall to other room and stood there, thinking what to do next. Alarm clock woke me up.

I became while driving down empty street at night. A coworker drove up next to me, she also had her sister in the car. I yelled out to them, where are you going? After I said that they ended up pulling over to this really nice house. I parked right behind them and got out of the car when they did.

We all greeted each other as we walked towards her door. I interupted them as they were talking to say, Can you take me Guru Padmasambhava?. I notice when I said this a pronouced his name with a strange accent. Her sister bowed to me and seemed to change form, while saying yes I can take you to him.

She lead me into the house straight to kitchen. She said here is Guru padmasambhava. There was a mexican girl sitting in a chair with a green shirt on. I asked the girl are you padmasambhava and she responded yes. I thought maybe this is an emantion him or something. I got directly in the front of the girl saying nothing. Then she said aww your swollen and a tear came out of her eye. She reached out to give me a hug.

I might hate the school-week for dreaming, but Wednesdays are good, I get to sleep in..

First Lucid: There was no precursor to the lucid portion I was aware as the dream formed itself. The dream was forming in front of me and I did what I could to increase the vividness and overall clarity of it, rubbing my hands together and just willing more parts of it to form. Eventually it was stable enough so I decided to fly, it being the first on my three step task list. I jumped up into the air and began flying straight upwards, but I was going way to fast and I feared that I was going to go into space accidentally, again. So, I just went limp and allowed myself to fall back down and I landed back on my feet on the pavement of the parking lot I was previously in. I started walking, I had enough flying for now, and I came to a fence where there were a bunch of DCs, but no matter how much I tried to use telekinesis, it was just not working.. So, I kept trying and eventually the DCs got mad at me for interrupting their baseball game, as I was on a baseball field. And I talked to them and told them how it was my dream and I could be where I wanted. And after that my dream faded to black.

Second Lucid: This one did have a precursor. I was walking with my younger brother to school, an elementary school, which he was apparently attending. (But that makes no sense, as, my little brother is in high school.) Anyways, so I passed a van with a man who looked at me and my brother and told us to have a good day. I replied back to him, you too. (Side-note: he was definitely getting a blowjob from what appeared to be a prostitute, which me and my brother remarked about as we continued walking.) So, we continued on towards his elementary school, which it was the actual elementary school that both he and I went. When we reached the field of the elementary school I suddenly became lucid. My mind immediately darts to getting points, so I jump and start flying, hoping to accomplish my three step task list in this dream. This time I don't fly with high speed and just, more of, glide nicely over a fence and into the school. And now flying was down just had telekinesis and interacting with a DC. Again my telekinesis was not working at all. I was getting a bit angry but I decided that I needed to focus, so I stopped and focused and used my telekinesis to move a DCs hand and bend his fingers around (don't worry it didn't hurt him.) Now there was telekinesis all that was left was interacting with a DC. I walked over to a lovely DC and asked her if she cared for a dance, extending my hand. I drew her in close to me and we began to dance, I mean how could she refuse me.. haha. So, my dream faded away as we were dancing but only visually, I could still feel her hands and both her and myself dancing, so we continued to dance until that too faded away.

Date: 22 May

Total Sleep Time: 8 hrs

WBTB: 120 mg gingko

Dream quality and recall: dreams were vivid, but I was very sleepy today, I guess that has affected my recall. My prospective memory and concentration during the lucid were not at their best either.

Fragment1: the dream involved Xanos, no other memory

Dream2: A class meeting again. It is late at night and we are discussing with the girls where we are about to go. I feel like dancing so I am totally fine with any place they suggest. I notice that they have put on some weight. My dad is over-protective and follows me around. I arrange to secretly meet with my best school friend and take her to a concert. I will buy her the ticket. On what I think is the next day, we meet in the morning and take the subway. She has moved to my city, it seems.

Fragment3: We are eating some mix of bacon and cheese, tasted very realistic

Fragment4: the office is closed, my dad is looking for something

WBTB: Took gingko. Recalled dreams and did some dream incubation during which I have fallen asleep.

Dream5: I am watching some trees from above, and want to change their color. It feels a bit like I am observing using google map. Soon I am at the place of interest, in the middle of a lake. There is an old wood-made ship close to the also quite old and dusty quay. I have a game like attitude and want to rearrange the whole place. I succeed in making more space where I want to. Then I am in the water, swimming forward, but it is not very pleasant because this lake is a bit dirty. There is also a fish nearby, and I don’t like that.

Dream6: Instead of the normal section of a restaurant, I decide to follow a DC and go to another part. I am climbing some stairs to reach my destination, but the place is very hard to get to because the doors are smaller. I reach the third floor, where I talk to the waiter – a friend of mine. Three other DCs appear. One of them tells me that he has a Japanese geisha girlfriend and that they are in an open relationship, they are dating some other special girl. He shows me a brochure where all this is explained using some strange Japanese words. I think that he expects me to join their little arrangement, so I say no thanks.

Fragment7: I am in a car, and the waiter of another place we were in, is now John Malkovich. He comes in, bringing my favourite sandwiches. They are perfect.

Dream8 DILD: I am in an interesting looking town, but pay little attention to it at first. I am with four friends, one girl I clearly know, two DC friends in the background and another girl. The other girl is the girlfriend of a friend of mine, and she has come to meet me. At first, I don’t feel at ease with the two girls, even though they are friends, so I fly to the level of the first floor, and follow everybody as they are walking down the street, just above them. I think of why I am doing this and then fly back down. The new girl has brought me some presents – she hands me two notebooks, with school notes, chemistry and other stuff. Then another one with patriotic poems translated in a foreign language. Who would want to read something like that, I am thinking to myself.

At some point which I cannot remember, I become lucid. I feel I have spent a long time exploring around. The next more clear lucid memory is me, still in that city, which looks like a medieval city, feeling happy and going for some tasks (which I don’t remember at all). Then I look around and enjoy the place, the walls of the houses around are made from a dark stone with a hint of green. It feels like an Italian city during Middle Ages. It also reminds me of a number of other dreams I had. One more recent one was in a modern Italian city. The Colosseum should be somewhere to my right, I am thinking and desire to go to that place. At the same time, I try to engage a few DCs to help me on my quest. I look ahead and see DCs passing by, I try to stop them, but they are moving really fast, strong momentum, so I cannot stop them. (The second time this has happened). I look at a DC in front of me and notice how beautiful, elaborate and medieval/renaissance-like her clothes are. I get closer to a DC woman that is not moving, she is some kind of monk, and ask her for help/directions, but she is not helpful at all (interact with DC).

I continue and find another male DC, a peasant, he looks a bit blurry. I know that this dream has been going on for really long, so to avoid it ending I come up with the idea to stabilize the dream by kissing him. He is not really ugly, I find him rather unpleasant, but still, I kiss him. I realize that I am doing something objectionable to me, yet I keep doing it. The dream feels much more stable (stabilize dream), but then someone tells me that as a result of my behaviour, I have now two children and that man is my husband. This place is my home now. It all suddenly feels so realistic to me that I lose my lucidity. I begin to fret about those responsibilities and that I won’t be able to leave the place now. At the same time, I know that this city is special and that there are wormholes appearing every now and then, so I can use one of them to escape. I look at a live city map, which shows the location of the currently active wormhole.

I continue sleeping and have another dream that I cannot recall. I wake up and feel frustrated because I have no memory of the last few dreams. Then fragments start to emerge.

Comment: Although I managed to recover some of the memory of that lucid, it is upsetting that once again I am unable to remember a part of the experience. And yet, it is much better than not remembering anything at all.

Blame it on the menthol.

Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

Lucid #98: Menthol and Marriage

I'm watching my son E perform some kind of a play with other 3-year-olds. At one point he's supposed to pretend a wiffle ball bat is a magic wand, but of course he goes waving it around dangerously close to other kids' heads. I run over to intervene but another mother gets there first. "I'll take that," she says, plucking it out of his hands.

"Sorry! Thanks for grabbing that from him," I say, embarrassed that she got there first. The woman gives me an unfriendly "where were you?" look. This annoys me, but as the father of the kid who was going nuts with a wiffle ball bat, there's not much I can say. I look back over at the play and E, laughing merrily, leaps over a low stone wall and goes running off God-knows-where. I take off after him...

...and have a false awakening in complete darkness. I hear Wife stir in the darkness and she asks me why I'm awake. I tell her that "I had this crazy dream where [E] almost hit a bunch of other kids in the head with a wiffle ball bat." I move to settle back against the pillow and realize that it's way, way too dark in here. "I'm dreaming," I tell her.

"Mm-hmm," is her sleepy reply, and I hear her roll over.

"It's super dark in here," I say. "I can't even see you." She doesn't respond but she rolls over again, leaning her head against my shoulder and putting her hand on my chest. I'm feeling really frisky and I think about asking her whether she wants to "make out a little bit."

Before I can unleash this suave line on her, she exclaims, "God, your breath!" and rolls away in horror. As she says that, I notice that the inside of my mouth feels nasty and vaguely thick, like my pre-bed dental care has totally worn off.

My confidence is a bit punctured, but I respond, "This is a dream. I can't possibly have bad breath in a dream."

"Okay, if you're sure," she says.

I move toward where her voice is coming from and try to kiss her. I wind up just finding her feet, which start flailing around when I touch them. "Why are you facing the wrong way now?" I ask, confused and a little exasperated.

"I don't know!" she responds. Holding on to an ankle, I very clumsily sort of turn her around. Since it's dark, I can just imagine that she's now facing the right way. As I do, the light in the scene increases ever so slightly until I can see her. I've managed to put my "death breath" from earlier out of my mind, so we kiss.

As they say, "one things leads to another", and the dream ends with roughly 4 minutes of very vivid LD sex before I wake up. Describing this part in detail would be a little too personal and graphic, but even after having a fair number of lucid dreams, the realism and detail of LDs still amazes me.

Last night I kept having dreams that occurred in the same area, but different places around the area. I ended up getting lucid three times!
Lucid Non-Lucid

This is just a fragment of a dream. I was in my house. I became lucid, and RCed. I decided to go outside and fly around. I jumped off the deck, put my arms out, and imagined floating. I ended up gliding a bit, and then landing face-first on the ground. I got up, and tried to fly again, and this time I floated a bit.

I was in a large hotel which looked like a mansion with my entire school I went to last year. My friend and I went in the pool, but then this dark cloud appeared right over it in the corner. It formed into a tornado, so my friend and I ran inside to go hide. Another friend was in there, and he told us to come lie down by him. Then, the tornado came in, and a huge part of the building fell right where we were thinking about sitting before. After, everyone in the school got up, but then we all had swords, and everyone was trying to stab eachother. I stabbed a bunch of people, and then my little sister came up to me, swinging a mini-sword at my face. I grabbed her hand and told her to leave. After that, it was night, and I couldn't find my room at all. Every room I went into was wrong, and I kept going into the same rooms. Eventually, my teacher told me to sleep in this one room which was really big and dark. So I walked in, and the lights were by the door, so I had to walk to my bed in the dark. Then, this slenderman thing came up, and started following me. I woke up.

I went back to sleep, and ended up in the same room, non-lucid. This time, I was sitting on the counter by the stove with my computer, but it was daytime, and there was a large window in the room. I became aware that I was dreaming. I thought 'Oh crap, this is where I was before. I'm getting out of here. I grabbed my computer and jumped and smashed through the window. Luckily, there was a massive lake, so I landed in the lake instead of on the ground. I swam to the surface, but then I woke up.

I fell back asleep again, and ended up right outside in the front yard of the mansion. I could tell I was dreaming, so I thought of tasks for Checker's competition. I saw a really nice car, and I tried to teleport myself into the drivers seat, but whatever I was trying didn't work. Eventually, I ran up to the car, and tried to get in it, but the person inside drove away. Then, I ran down towards the lake I had jumped into before. There was a huge cliff in front of me (going down). I was going to try and fly into the lake, but then I decided not to. I saw some cheetahs (again?!? They were in an earlier LD), and decided to try transformation for on task. I got down on all four, and ran towards them. I could feel the transformation, but my clothing was still on. I reached them and woke up.

Then, I fell asleep and was back in the mansion, but in a different room. My dad and sisters were there. I became aware I was dreaming, and RCed. I went up to my dad and said, "Dad, you're dreaming! Here, plug your nose!" Then, I demonstrated flying to him. I jumped up and hovered a bit. Then I landed on the ground and looked at him. The scene went blurry for a second, then unblurry. I decided to stabilize, and rubbed the couch a bit. Then I showed him flying/floating again, and I woke up.

This is the last one I remember. I was in the mansion, and my friend and I had to stay the night. We went into the basement, and found a cookie factory! We crawled up into the machinery to sleep, but there were a bunch of other kids. Then, we got plastic containers full of cookies from the machine, and a worker said we could have as much as we want.


Four lucids in one night

Dream recall from today's naps and yay for 100th lucid!
And yay for successful full transformation, even if it lasted only for seconds and form was unplanned.
My dream recall on talk with DCs is still not good, hmmm.
Still need to work on dream control.

Dream 1:

I wake up at home and look at hands , i can't straighten fingers no matter what i do and they are angled weirdly, which means i am dreaming. I look around and room is different, it looks somewhat like it was ages ago, and my bed is the old bed. Family is in the room as well. I walk up towards balcony door but for some reason i decide not to leave. I recall a few goals and attempt summoning and transformation a few times but it does not works well. Then i talk to family DCs about something while walking around the room, but can't recall what. I noticed pants changed color from time to time and one time i looked i had alot of pants on me for some reason. Dream fades out.
I am in the bed and mom tries to wake me up for whatever reason, i get annoyed a bit and get up, then look at hands i still can't straighten fingers, so i am still dreaming. I walk a bit and then i have got a completely random thought about dinosaurs. I see room door opening and i decide to try summoning one, no result. I walk out of the room into the corridor and decide to try transformation, i pretend to be rawr'ing and i notice some mirrors in the corridor. I look into them and i am apparently some humanoid dinosaur-looking creature, at the time i see it i feel some sort of change, and my legs felt different(I think my awareness was low again or something so i didn't felt the transformation entirely). Also my rawr pretending sounded more 'actual'. For some reason i decide to walk back into the room and on the way i become back normal. I notice dream destabilizing and i rub hands, dream becomes more stable. I walk towards balcony door this time intending to go outside, but shortly dream destabilizes again and then fades out.
I lay still with closed eyes intending to DEILD and shortly i feel someone touching me.
Dream 2:
I wake up and notice that mom was trying to wake me up again, i ignore and check hands, they are still weird, also i look around and notice that i am in my room from previous dream, i get up and try to summon some things again, but it does not works. I say something to mom DC and go towards balcony door again. I suddenly remember about expectations(Finally my dream self remembered that properly...) and decide to try summoning again, but the dream fades out.

In the school yard, it's break time so the yard is crowded. I realize I'm dreaming 'cause I've just back to sleep. I find Tùng Anh in front of my classroom (he was my crush 4 years ago but now we're good friends, and I always meet him when lucid). I want a shared dream with him so I use Ignore test to make sure he isn't just a DC (like in the previous lucid dream I thought he was real).
And as I turn back he is still there.
I said to him "Wake up! You're dreaming!", he gives me a look seems to mean "I know!". I kiss his lips, he doesn't kiss me back but smiles to me. We hold each other's hand and start floating up. We fly around. Our friends down there, they look up to us and shocked "OMG THEY'RE FLYING!!". I'm a bit surprised "Why are they so fightened?". When we reach the ground I see our French teacher (At Junior High) hurry out of the classroom. I tell T.A "She isn't real, I'll show you". She look at us for a second and back to the classroom. When we have lost sight of her, I take him into the room. No one's there.
As we back to the yard, we saw a group of boys. One of them has blue hair (IRL his hair is black like all of us). I reach another boy and use magic to change his hair to rainbow color. Then I give him a mirror. He doesn't like it.
I wake up, but it's just a false awakening. I run downstairs, my mom is about to go. I try to recall the previous dream, and back to the dream scene with T.A.
We see our French teacher again. As we fly up she pull out a gun and shoots us . Luckily no one hurt .
We're still in the sky. I look at him, he seems upset. I ask him why, he said "This is boring. We don't have anything else to do?". I show him the whole city beneath us, he says "No". I change the dream scence to a beautiful, romantic night sky, he shake his head. I take him to the ocean. There's a huge iceberg. I say "We can build a city and put the residents in it". He agree (but still seems hesitate, I don't know why). We start carving the ice.
While working and talking to T.A, I have a change to look at him more carefully. He wears jeans and yellow shirt, and very detailed appearance...
Wake up. Write in DJ. Go to dreamviews.
Note: So... I'll start building a city on ice. I suck at drawing, design, architect... But who knows?

All I know is that I was in some kind of hotel and that I was in an elevator, and then for some reason it suddenly dropped down and I realized this kind of danger is unrealistic so I RC'd and became lucid. I tried to "zone" out of the elevator but to no avail, for some reason I didn't have much control, it was much like my visualization attempt fails. Even though the elevator just went up some 30 or 40 meters the drop took about a minute or so after which I at least got the elevator to slow down, but I wasn't really any much lower than before (when I turned around I could see out through a glas wall).

After that I already woke up because I was freezing as hell in my tent...

i dreamed that i was in this movie theater were the seats faced away from the screen and towards the audiencve. i started hearing this basseyloud vibtattion through my head an realized shit this must be a dreame. i staid chill mostly and enhoyed it.. my ahnds were invisible and i rubed them together trying to envision them as appearing they slowly did.


then i jumped on some stairts to an imaginary rail but i said im dreaming and bam there it was it was so scoooooll

Its been at least a month since I last logged in. I've been busy taking care of my husband Adam. Its been 3 months since his stroke, and he is healing in every way! Starting from the spirit and working down to his toes!!

9 days ago Adam was baptized right here in the campground where we live, just outside our door. it was 2 days after that, that I had the dream I will remember til my last breath.

I was driving my car, me and Adam were going to the bank. I parked outside our bank and we both got out. Outside the entrance to the bank were 4 street musicians, each playing an instrument (I think 2 were stringed, 2 were flutes). They looked well dressed and normal, like you would see performing on a street corner,except these men all had red skin. Adam ignored them and walked straight into the bank (he would never in real life ignore a musician, because he is one). But it was like he didn't even register that they were there. I walked up to them, stood close to them. Up close I could see that their red skin was covered in rolls of wrinkles, boils, and blisters. I knew what they were, but I wasn't afraid. The one closest to me leaned forward, still playing the stringed instrument he was holding, and began to speak to me. Deafness washed over me. I didn't hear the music or what it said to me. This was a band of demons, expelled out of Adam when he was baptised. I calmly but firmly said "Get back - Jesus has him."

Instantly it was pushed back from me, and I was 30+ feet from the entrance of the bank with an angel on each side of me. I was surrounded by their light and I could hear the lights warmth (I know that sounds weird, hearing warmth, but I cant describe it any other way). I wanted to be with Adam,so I was instantly in the bank. No walking required. The inside was simply a white room. People were walking around, some with their head down, some talking to their self, others interacting. Very few were talking to other people. Some people were in line, some were at the front of the line. I found Adam in line and joined him,and from there, he wrapped his arm around me and we talked about what we needed to do while we were in town.

The white room I think, represented people who love God. Some of them were quiet and not talking to others, instead keeping counsel with their own self, refusing to let go of the self....walking head down,ashamed to be known for their love for God. Others in line were waiting for direction, listening and following in obedience, living in tune with God, they knew their old self was dead. It was sad to see how many Christians were wandering with their head down, hiding, hoping not to be seen.

This was the most powerful dream I've ever had. It was lucid, and at the same time simple and clear. I'll never forget coming face to face with the demon that once inhabited my husband. it wanted him back....it spoke to me because Adam wouldn't acknowledge it - which is because Adam COULDN'T see it after he was baptized. I know when the deafness washed over me,it was pleading with me -- so it could get Adam to make him fall, make him doubt....

WE'VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU, SATAN.... YOU CAN'T HAVE HIM OR ME ANYMORE!!!! God's building Adam up from scratch since his stroke, and building me up as well - and what ever comes of it will be for Gods glory,so BACK UP!!!!!

1st Dream(Non-Lucid):

I get out of a bus and take a look around. Wating at the bus station stands someone i immediately recognize but his name will just not come back to me. Anyways i knew that he was from a camp i attended a year ago. I approach him with: "Hey, i know you!!" but since i didnt recall his name i knew nothing i could talk about with him. We stood there in awkward silence til a second bus arrived and he got in.

I got moving again because by chance i was on my way to a camp simular to the one i have been to a year ago. When i arrived a couple of people were already there and i proceeded to tell them what i just expirienced. I then went to the bathroom ad at some point noticed that my front tooth was kind of loose. I pressed a little against it and in horror i felt how it crunched and i held a piece of my tooth in my hand. A look in the mirror showed me my bloodstained mouth and a part of the tooth that was still in there.
I ran out in panic searching for a dentist of some kind but after some time running through the building i remembered that this camp was located in a dentists office. So i went to the second floor and really found a dentist whom i explained what situation i was in. He told me to clean my mouth like they always do and what i spit into the sink apart from some water were more, smaller parts of some teeth that came loose.

2nd Dream(Lucid):

i was at a friends and it was getting late but i knew my parents were out so they couldnt complain. But suddenly i saw my house and my parents unlocking the front door. I was following them in a ghost like state up to my room and inside. At this point i declared this a dream and started to recall the tasks from the competition. First thing that came to my mind was moving through a solid object so i walked straight through the door to my room which my mother had closed. She said something to me what i dont remember but i continued to think of tasks. Since interacting with a DC was one of them i imagened there was one of my buddys at the door so i rushed down and opened the door. When i saw noone there the dream started to fade away but a second later someone called me from the side. A friend i had a long time ago stood there and i was a little bit disappointed i coudnt summon the guy i initially thought of. When i looked at the guy again a turtle was in his place. I didnt really care and said something along: "Lets be awesome" patted the turtle its back and started running. i was worried that the turtle might not keep ut but it was right next to me and said its fine. As i ran down the street in front of my house at some point the obvious came to my mind and i pinched my nose to perform a RC. Obviously it was a dream and i was able to breath. I contiued running and saw a pool in a garden. and as soon of element manipulation the pool started to freeze. I let it be and went into a small sideway. i decided to try eating something and imagened some bacon in my pocket. It took one or two seconds until i felt a soft package apart from my cell phone i tock the package out and found some bacon(raw but still). when i finished eating i eventually woke up.

Lucid #97: Just a Misunderstanding

I'm walking down a dark, endless hallway. All I can make out in this darkness is that the left side of the hall is set up with this endless series of art tables down its length. I'm moving slowly, afraid that I'll run into something unexpected.

A woman jumps out at me from the darkness, teeth bared, and a raised knife clenched in her fist. I jump back, terrified, and try to gather my wits to fight or run. The woman's demeanor suddenly softens and she throws the knife onto a nearby table where it lands with a clatter. I look at it, and the knife is even more frightening-looking than I'd thought at first -- it's the shape and size of a short sword!

She smiles at me, promising that "This is just a misunderstanding." She walks past me and I see that she's wearing very revealing lingerie. She looks amazing and as she brushes past, my hand grazes the skin of her torso. My feeble mind offers no resistance. I bet it was just a misunderstanding... She grips the fingers of my right hand in hers, leading me behind her down the hall.

I'm very excited about what's going to happen next. But something just doesn't feel right, and I suddenly remember that I'm married. As soon as I start thinking about Wife, I feel weak, rotten, and guilty following this scantily-clad stranger down a dark hall. I yank my fingers out of her grip, and she just keeps walking, disappearing into the darkness ahead. What the hell was I thinking? How could I be so stupid? And it hits me that this has to be a dream. I immediately feel grateful and relieved to have figured this out.

I'm someplace different now. Some kind of wood-panelled attic. It's dark and the picture looks a little grainy, almost like I'm viewing everything through night vision. There's a little toy fan on a railing nearby and I take it, turning it on. It's the kind with soft foam blades that are safe for kids. The fan blows a pleasant breeze in my face and I can will it to move faster or slower as I see fit. My hair starts blowing crazily around as I increase the wind speed.

I'm worried about overall stability in this scene, so I let the little foam fan blades buzz against my arm as they spin round and round. Then I run the little fan blades against the skin of my right cheek for a bit, surprised at how realistic this feels.

I play with the fan for a while as I hunt around the attic for some kind of interesting scenery or exit. There's a metal grating in the floor and a soft, white light is pouring out of it into the attic. The grating is slammed shut but I know that I can phase through it. I beging working up my will for a phase, thinking There's nothing there. Nothing at all. Before I can try the phase, though, the grating swings silently open. Well, that was easy.

I move toward the light, stepping into it and... wake up, seeing that the light and grating was really just my eyes seeing a light outside our hotel room filtering through the blinds.
