    1. Lucid dream #31 -Erm... What?

      by , 03-01-2013 at 11:36 PM (Lucid Time!)
      I was with my mom. She tells me something about some guy building giant generators and doing things with the earth's gravity that periodically have fluctuations that may reverse gravity or make things fall sideways or in any unusual direction.
      So I was just sitting at the breakfast bar and gravity inverts as you would expect after what I was told. I fell onto the ceiling and then back onto the floor.
      I suddenly realized how outlandish this was that gravity was altered.
      BAM get lucid! This is a dream. For some reason I decide to do some flying, but I stink at flying.
      I step outside onto the front porch with the expectation that I will rocket into the air, but nothing happens.
      Then my mom says that she is going to the gym and starts putting duffel bags into her car.
      I lose lucidity and decide to go with her. I start packing too, then I wake up.

    2. I win!

      by , 03-01-2013 at 01:22 PM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      This dream is kind of mixed up. This first one was fairly long but my memory of it is misplaced. I hope to remember it later.

      I am at some family gathering. I talk to my dad about Christians being judgmental and am surprised that he agrees with me. I think this is were I got lucid. I remember not doing much just messing around with the dream. Was I trying to make fire in my hand? I remember being on fire.

      *memory gap*

      I am out in my car looking for something. As I am walking back inside some house my nephew S jumps out in front of me and wants me to play a game with him. I tell him maybe later.

      *memory gap*

      At some point I lay down to sleep. I am at a table with my sis and bro and their spouses. We are playing some sort of D&D game. We all have large white chips in front of us that signify something unknown. The game master is my younger sister and she is giving my brother a scenario. Responds with "I do declare that ...." I stop listening because I am sitting there somewhat introspective and realize I am dreaming. Next is my sister-in-law B's turn. But I skip her and stand up. I say, "I do declare that I am dreaming!" I jump up on the table and do pelvic thrusts. I shout "Oh yea bitches! Who's the winner now? I am, because I am dreaming and you're all not real." I briefly wonder if I am making a fool of myself but then I notice their reactions. They have none. They have become lifeless and motionless. The scene fades.

      I have a FA. Apparently I was sleeping next to my nephew M who was next to my brother and then his wife on the other end. My brother gets up. I am thinking about the lucid I just had. I remember there was another one before that one and I try to focus on that too. But then my Sis-in-law B says that she is pregnant. My mom comes in from the other room and says, "WHAT!?" B simply says again, "I am pregnant."

      I have many thoughts about this but mostly, "They are too old for that." My brother looks stressed and is just standing in the hallway looking at pictures on the wall. I realize the awkwardness or lying in a bed next to my pregnant sis-in-law. Then a ceiling fan above us falls apart and pieces hit the bed. We both get up. I walk behind B and she is waddling with a large stomach. She turns into a bathroom and I pause. I really need my Galaxy Player to enter my dream. I go back to the bed and look. I see M there still a sleep. I wake up.
    3. In the Dirt

      by , 03-01-2013 at 01:04 PM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      WBTB Mugwort
      MILD

      I got to sleep in the recliner and dream about my cats running around and jumping. Sputnik keeps jumping on top of the ledge about the front door, hanging there for a bit and then jumping down to the floor with a thud. I watch for a bit from the recliner and then I remember.

      I instantly get vibrations and see a bright white light then dark. The vibrations are week and intermittent. I wait unsure if I am in the dream or not. Then I remember I was already dreaming before. I get up and go outside. I sort of half open the door and half phase through. The door was forgotten.

      If feel a brief cold and then a smell like rain. I find that odd for a dream. I can see fine and the world seems solid but I feel like I need to stabilize. I think about liking the sidewalk again. This time I but my hands in some dirt and feel it. It looks more like potting soil. This is were things get ultra real.

      I hear some rock music with heavy drums. I look around and the neighborhood looks convincingly real. I seriously wonder if I was sleep walking/dreaming like I used to do as a child. I become really worried and self-conscious. I look across the street toward the direction of the music. It seems like it is the house directly across from me. I try to see who is over there but my vision gets blurry. Then the dream sort of folds in on itself and my awareness shifts to my physical body. I think about DEILD but it doesn't come right away so I think I better enter into my DJ.

    4. 1st Mar 2013 WILD - Some DC distracting me from goals

      by , 03-01-2013 at 08:15 AM (Scionox's Journal of Dreams)
      Seems like my recall of dialogue from dreams is not good, even from lucid ones.

      I 'wake up' on my bed in my room and take off headphones, i still hear binaural beats, confirming that i am dreaming. Dream was pretty unstable and it was hard to move, so i did stabilization by feeling the bed with my hands and also by rubbing hands. I recalled my goal to find a way to change location and i recalled that i wanted to try running through walls. I get up and try running into one, but dream fades out before i get to it.
      I am on the bed again, i know that i am still in the dream. As i get up i hear some loud, booming voice shouting something about nature, creating some sort of shock wave and thrusting me upwards, i suddenly feel wings once again and manage to stop my motion before hitting the ceiling and. I get back to the floor and shout some thing along the line "What was that about", the voice responds: "I AM ___ OF NATURE OF EARTH"(Can't recall the underscore'd word). I accidentally close eyes and dream destabilizes again.
      I am on the bed once again, this time with pillow somehow stuck on my front. I do some more stabilization and then get up, and as i walk i shout "Show yourself!", the owner of the voice from before appears in front of me in blue glow, but since i was walking pillow that stuck in front of me hits him and falls off. The owner of the voice appears to be midget of less than an half of my height. We greet each other and talk about something for a bit that i can't recall at all. Then i decide to attempt to run through wall again, but as i get close to the wall, some sort of forcefield slows me down. Midget starts running around the room while being completely invisible(I dunno how, but i 'felt' whenever he was nearby). I was trying to catch him, but as he becomes visible he's not a midget anymore and in fact he's somewhat taller than me, also he's wearing some sort of industrial working suit. He ignores me and starts connecting something to big speakers on the desk(I don't have speakers in the room IWL, i use headphones), and saying that it's something special. I accidentally close eyes again, but this time dream remains stable. I decide to reattempt my goal again, but as i run to the wall i get knocked to the bed from the side(possibly by ex-midget). Dream fades out.

    5. 02/26/13 Bullies

      by , 03-01-2013 at 12:48 AM (New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight)
      02/26/13

      Bullies
      I am in what looks like a western town, I am walking down a dusty road. I have no idea where I am or how I got to be here, but this doesn't seem odd to me. I just keep walking down the road until I hear a commotion around a corner. I follow the sound of the commotion and I find three men picking on one boy who looks like he is mentally disabled. I recognize the people from the Dark Tower series. The three men are Eldred Jonas, Clay Reynolds, and Roy Depape. The boy is Stanley Ruiz, aka Sheemie. Roy Depape and the others are all making fun of Sheemie, I think Roy might be considering shooting him.

      Branch A: I am thinking I should do something about the situation when I see there is another man there, and I recognize him as MoSh. MoSh says he doesn't like to see someone picking on someone who has limited mental capacity… then walks up to Sheemie and says he should go ahead and leave these three unfortunate men alone. Sheemie looks a bit confused but glad to leave, and he hurries off. Eldred Jonas picks up on the insult right away and gets pissed. His face turns red. He tells MoSh he had better take that back. MoSh says he would get into a battle of wits with Jonas, but he makes a point not to get into a fight with someone who is unarmed. Jonas has his gun out instantly and fires a bullet right at MoSh's feet, and he seems surprised when MoSh doesn't even flinch. MoSh takes the gunslinger challenge and pulls out a gun even faster than Jonas, shooting the gun right out of Eldred's hand. All three of them are stunned now. They are still staring at MoSh when the sheriff shows up with Sheemie. It looks like Sheemie thought there might be trouble and brought a cop. They arrive just in time to see Eldred Jonas picking his gun up off the ground, I notice he has a gun of his own out but seems uncertain. MoSh has concealed his own gun. The sheriff wants to know what is going on, and Eldred is the first person to respond. He says he was showing off his piece to their new friend (MoSh), nothing here that requires the law to intervene. The sheriff seems glad at the idea that nothing is really going on here. He tells Sheemie he knew there wasn't really anything serious going on. I notice Eldred Jonas wants to keep his ruined gun from being seen, he holsters it as if it was still useful. Apparently he doesn't want to admit he was outdrawn so easily.

      Branch B: I am thinking I should do something about the situation. I tell the three of them they had best be leaving Sheemie alone. Eldred Jonas says it's none of my business and I'd best be moving along. Roy Depape seems to have a bit of a different opinion… he eyes me over a time or two and says maybe there is something I could do to distract him if I want the retard to live for one more day… the way he is eyeing me I know what he is thinking and the thought makes me a bit nauseous. But I don't want him to just shoot Sheemie before I can get to him so I pretend to be considering his proposition… until I get close enough. From the look on his face I think he is expecting to get lucky… instead he gets my knee in his groin, as hard as I can do it. Eldred Jonas has his gun in his hand almost instantly, but he isn't fast enough before I kick the gun right out of his hand using a martial arts move. I follow that with a kick to the gut, knocking the asshole flat on his ass. I tell Sheemie he might want to take this opportunity to leave… which he does. Clay Reynolds seems too stunned to do anything but stare, I think he is shocked at the idea of a woman fighting back like that. That doesn't keep me from knocking him on his ass. With the three of them all nursing injuries I tell them to leave Sheemie alone, or next time I might not be in such a good mood. I manage to make it around the corner before I wake up.
    6. 28th February 2013 - 4th Lucid

      Sleep – 11:15pm
      Wake ups – 3:40am
      Finial wake up – 6:30am

      Non-Lucid
      Lucid
      Not-Dream

      - I was driving a car around a car park. The car park was pretty much full and I couldn’t find anywhere to park. As I was driving down a lane the car stops responding to what I tell it to do. It then starts to control its self. It then started to spin around on the spot. I noticed that this shouldn’t be able to happen as there definitely wasn’t enough room to do this a second ago as the nearby cars were too close.

      I figured that this was a dream and too check it I did the nose pinch RC. As I expected I could breathe through it and I became completely lucid. I tried to get the car to stop moving but I woke up as I was trying. I looked over to my alarm clock and noticed that I should have been up about an hour ago. I rushed up and went to go make a quick breakfast. As I was running down the stairs I woke up again. (I thought to myself that I thought I just woke up. I did a quick RC and found out that this wasn’t a dream and that must have been a FA.)

      - I was in my kitchen getting myself ready to go out as I was going to run a shop my dad had bought. I could hear my brother and sister arguing about something upstairs.
    7. The Celebrity

      by , 02-28-2013 at 04:01 PM
      I wish that I'd asked this character what he represented rather than falling back so readily to fight or flight! My emotional control wasn't great in this LD but at least I guided myself toward a Task of the Year goal.

      Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

      Lucid #70: The Celebrity

      I WILD into a wooded campground. There's a crowd of excited DCs nearby, all waiting to meet this one guy who seems to be some kind of celebrity. The "celebrity" is an uncharismatic, mid-40s, somewhat ugly guy with a dark mustache. In spite of this, all of the women in the crowd are swooning and the men are excitedly pushing past one another for a chance to shake his hand.

      In between handshakes, the celebrity keeps doing these loud, visibly moist sneezes directly into his hand... just before using it to shake the hand of the next starstruck DC. I find the whole scene repulsive, so I decide to hurry past.

      As I pass by the crowd, the celebrity turns to me and offers me a handshake. I think that I'm supposed to be honored, but I have no interest in touching his sneeze-hand. I politely pat his shoulder and turn to leave, refusing the handshake.

      There's a murmur of surprise from the crowd, but I try to ignore them, thinking instead of the tasks that I have in mind. The celebrity charges toward me and thrusts his hand in my face, insistent that I pay my respects. No, thanks. I turn away again, but when I do, the celebrity disrespectfully slaps me on the butt! I'm unbelievably offended at being treated this way in my own dream. My first thought is to turn around and just wreck this dude.

      I decide that escape's the better move, though, so I Hulk-jump away. Somehow the celebrity grabs onto my leg as I go, though, and ends up flying with me. We land in another part of the campground and again he wordlessly extends his sneeze-hand toward me for a handshake. I try another jump, but he keeps hanging on.

      I'm really angry that he's interfering with my LD and I think of the Colosseum Task of the Year ('Have a "fight to the death" with a DC in the Colosseum.') Yes, I think that I've found just the DC for killing. "I'm taking you to the Colosseum," I tell him, and grab him by the throat. His expression never changes, but his neck, arms and torso start rapidly expanding as if he were packing on slabs of muscle right before my eyes. Within a few seconds, he's transformed into a hulking, dangerous-looking gladiator.

      Still holding him by the throat, I jump again. The celebrity looks like he weighs about 260 now, but fortunately I can move him easily when I jump. I have a gladius in my hand, but I hold back on using it until the time is right. My enemy is wearing some kind of armor now, and he's no longer looking for a handshake. I give my gladius some practice swings and mutter some threats that I can no longer remember. The celebrity doesn't respond.

      Now we crash down on a floor of sand. I think that this is it! I can see a low stone wall all around us but above that it's just darkness where the crowd should be. I will the scene to come into focus, but the darkness just descends heavier and heavier until
      the dream ends...

      Lost Lucid Dreams and Fragments
      I also had a number of longer lucid dreams last night that were mostly wiped from my memory! My guess is that these were very low-level lucids where I lost lucidity. I'm a bit distressed to know that I am capable of losing LDs like that. I'm pondering what I should do to address this.

      Lost Lucid #1 - I'm flying high over a huge canyon near sundown, aware that I'm dreaming and holding a pile of dog poo in my bare hands. I am in a hurry to get somewhere.
      Lost Lucid #2 - An old man is in my kitchen showing me how to make gold out of simple household ingredients (including mud.) I know that I'm dreaming, but I watch in fascination.

      Also, one lucid fragment:

      Lucid Fragment #1 - I'm looking at a DJ entry on DreamViews. It has a single comment with a very long first paragraph. I become lucid when I see that the comment is from "BadArtemis" rather than "NewArtemis". Quickly wake up.

    8. LUCIDITY, F**K YEAAAH !!! ... but c'mon, seriously ?

      by , 02-28-2013 at 03:57 PM
      I DID IT! Finally some real lucidity (DILD) !

      How can it be so random? I mean - I got the first one at about 6 am - (Non-lucid part) I was outside the block of flats where I used to live with my parents when I was a kid. I was actually just headed for the entrance, but I met 2 guys - they looked like some mafia types. The only thing I could think of was "pretending to be a werewolf" (wtf?! Too much Skyrim I guess). So I ran towards them, roaring. And what did they do? Started playing werewolves, too!! That was funny. Then they somehow disappeared. I proceeded towards a house ahead of me (It actually exists and even looks the same, so ok). Suddenly I heard my band mates talking somewhere above. I looked up and they were standing on a balcony, chatting about a chick that I know, but only actually met her once (she lives quite far away). They don't know her IRL, but I accepted it as logical anyway ( ). Then I went inside the house and upstairs to meet them. The guitarist said that my mother called and said she wants to meet us outside. So we went back out. Mom arrived by a car (the one she really owns IRL). Okay. But that person was somebody completely different, not my mom. She had black hair, she was tall and a bit over-weight (My mom is the exact opposite - short thin blonde). But yeah, sure, for some reason, it was my mom and I couldn't tell otherwise. The others acted as if it was right, too. And then someone else got out of the car - That chick I talked about earlier. The hell would she be doing there? Nah, no lucidity again. Anyway, we decided to go to the apartment where we used to live. So we all went inside the building, took the stairs... and as we reached the flat, there were about 30 more people with us, all headed inside with us. No idea who they were. But THAT was not what I was concerned with. 'Cos it sounds completely normal, right? What I WAS concerned with, though, was that the apartment normaly was on the 4th floor. AND NOW IT WAS ON THE 5TH ! Right under the roof! No way! This must be a dream! *pushes fingers through his palm*.. and it gave way ! Hah! Then I finaly noticed the other people aren't supposed to be there. I remembered to control myself - so I don't get too excited. I thought - let's make sure (of course I couldn't be sure whether that was a dream, with all the ordinary things happening around me ), so I levitated about 6 feet above the ground. I could see another guy in the crowd levitating, too. Really cool. I wanted to see a familiar face. I remember talking to the chick while taking the stairs, so I shouted "Hey, Annie!" (Her RL name). I though I could pull her up from the crowd. Too daring I guess, 'cos at that moment, it was over.

      The whole "lucid part" lasted about ...10 seconds? And as much as I tried to focus on the dream and be as calm as possible, I just saw a white screen appear and then it transformed into the wall in my room. I was awake.

      But, I remembered dutchraptor's DEILD guide I read yesterday, so even though I opened my eyes, I still felt my body taken over by paralysis. I gave it a shot. Well, more shots, probably.. . I was lying in my bed, motionless, for about 30 minutes. But probably due to my mind still going crazy about how I finally made it and also for being mad that I was kicked out so fast, I couldn't go back to sleep. So I thought "Screw it!", rolled to my side and just went to sleep. At least I got something, I thought.

      I thought I was still awake and that I should just get up, when I was still lying on my bed after quite a while. It was light outside, anyway. Who cares if the bedroom looked nothing like my real one and that there was my GF (okay) and my former classmate from elementary school, who was now supposed to live here with us (o... eh..? okay...?? NO! Not okay! ). Or so the GOD DAMN ANOTHER DREAM I WAS IN IMPLIED!

      But my dream self's dumb side was in full control again. My GF then said "There are some people in the hallway, lying on the floor, asleep". I thought "What? Oh yeah, it's probably that crowd of people that tagged along with us, with the levitating guy, my bandmates, Annie, etc. I remember them coming with us, so we probably threw a party or something (Are you kidding me? This is not that appartment and those people were dream characters! Oh boy... ). And then I said - What is John doing here? (That E. school classmate). My GF said: "He lives here with us, don't you remember?" (Oh yeah, of course I remember, since you said so ). So I got up and went to check the people in the hallway. I opened the door and there were a couple people lying right behind them. Or .. well. Human-sized wooden dolls, to be more accurate. And they were lying in wardrobes. Like - you know - when an illusionist is trying to slice someone in half and the people always hide inside those boxes, so you can only see their head and feet. But this actually looked like a wooden wardrobe. Sooo... I asked the first guy ... doll... what he's doing there. The wooden doll with red/blue hat looked at me and said: "Don't you see? I am STAN MARSH!" ....
      YES! Of course, you are a wooden doll of Stan Marsh, the guy from South Park, you are lying on my floor in a wardrobe! Nice to meet you!!
      Then I stepped over him and a couple more people that were lying on the floor (in ... wardrobes... ). The hallway was at least three times the size of the real one. And you know what? There was a bench. A friggin' bench in the middle of the room. THAT was the one single thing that made me LUCID ! I climbed up the bench, and as I stood on it, I thought "I made it again! This time, I'm not going to be disposed of THAT easily!"
      And I swear I could "hear the dream think": "Oh, you think so?". In a second, it started happening again, everything fading into white. "No, no", I said. I focused on the ground. I even started SPINNING around like an idiot!
      Bah. It got me again. Just you wait the next time!

      LET ME HAVE MY FUN, DAMMIT !!

      Last night 2/26/13 Tuesday bed time 12:45am - 9am

      DR 7am
      I'm in a house in the canyon. I'm sleeping over with some other people. Trying to pick bedroom to sleep in. I think the rooms are haunted so I take my blankets to the sofa.

      Nap 12:15 - 2:30

      I knew it's gonna be good, because body started to relax in just a few minutes. Couldn't decide if to go for OBE or WILD, so kept mixing up the mantras. Did protection, tried to wiggle astral body. Finally fell asleep. Woke up to something later and got into a WILD.

      When WILD faded away, I thought to myself "wait a minute, I'm still lucid. I refuse to just lose lucidity. Have to get into another LD. I did this about 4 time.

      Details have faded away, because last attempt to retain lucidity failed and I fell into a long non-lucid.

      LDs
      - As I'm floating through a arched corridor with some wires and lights on the wall, I decide to eat a lightbulb, because I remembered how others ate some. So I smash it in my hand and start eating. I was wondering how it will taste like. It didn't taste like anything, but slightly on the nasty side. Was crunchy as expected. It stuck to my fingers as if it was melted sugar. My finger hurt as I was biting the hardened sugar bulb off of it and I was worried that I may accidentally bite my finger off.

      - I float into a small grocery store. Stop by candy isle and decide to eat something else. I pick a small yellow baggy of gummy candy. Turn it around and start reading the ingredients. I don't like gummies from apple juice.
      These are the ingredience:

      Hef! Hef! Hefner Industries!

      I was laughing my head off in the store. I gave some of the candy to someone else.

      - I remember other exits, each one totally different than the other. When WILDing, I made a plan to stay in my room and explore. I remember one LD I'm in my room, looking around, thinking "ok, I explored, now lets get out of here"

      Non-lucid
      I'm in a van. Bunch of other people. We are stopped somewhere. Someone offended someones sister so bunch of angry girls come to car and try opening the doors. We try to shut them.

      Then I'm walking on a promenade by a huge lake in Mexico. I see hotdogs float by, nicely arranged. I wonder what the hell? Then I see a person grilling hot dogs, saying "finally they delivered the hot dogs". He ment the onse that floated to him.

      Looking for a place to sit inside the restaurant, then picking a table nicely decorated with small round vases with red flowers. I'm kinda not happy, I would rather try some authentic mexican food than food from turist trap restaurant.

      Walking through customs with lots of other people. The oficer is telling me that dollar is in the crapper, with 1 peso eqaling 1 dollar.

      Good feeling from the whole thing, had bunch of fun with exits. Gotta love them.

      Swimming Pool (7:15) (LUCID)

      The play I'm watching turns out to be rather experimental. First they pretend like the play was over, then they keep going. Then they even turn on the house lights and go offstage, but somehow I know that the play's not actually over yet. I wonder how they're going to catch everyone's attention again to continue the show.

      Later, walking down a hallway, I realize that I'm dreaming. Time to go on an adventure! I'm carrying a backpack, which would be an annoyance to deal with, so I get in an elevator to take it back to my room first. But then I realize that that's stupid. I'll make it disappear instead. Setting it against the wall of the elevator, I focus on it. How to make it disappear? I imagine being able to see the corner of the elevator through the backpack--just a wireframe. Then fill it in with some colors . . . the dream doesn't feel stable . . . it was a bit dangerous to try to control things this directly . . . but just a bit more . . .

      Suddenly, the backpack disappears! Immediately, the dream feels twice as vivid, twice as stable. Success! Now I go straight to the floor of interest, instead of going back to my room first. After getting out of the elevator, I start taking off my clothes. Then I pause to do a reality check: I wouldn't want to be doing this in real life. Although, now I think on it, why would I want to do it in a dream, either? It's kind of taking a lot of time to remove every blasted item of clothing. Well, whatever. As I continue, I think about what I want to do with this dream. I remember one of my dream goals: "swim beneath the ocean."

      Later, I look through a window. Gravity and architecture aren't quite behaving properly; the exterior of the building slants diagonally away from the window, ending many stories below in a pool at ground level. I dive out the window and splash into the pool. Darkness and confusion reign for a few moments as a bodiless voice narrates something about symbolic significance of water, representing protection from the danger of the outside world. Moments later, I break the surface and see undulating hills of water all around, like small ocean swells. The narrator then says, "You know what else represents protection?" and suddenly a girl floats into view and up to my side. She's not wearing anything.

      Obviously, the expectation is that I'll take this chance to have sex. "Squirt me," she says with an encouraging smile. I give her a wry look and reply, "No." I'm not interested in doing that right now, although I do "squirt" off to the side just to acknowledge the temptation, or something. We pick a direction and start swimming that way. On a whim, I decide to go in for some manual stimulation and reach between her legs. She doesn't react, though. "That doesn't do anything for you?" I ask after a few moments. She shakes her head and replies, "Like I said, I'm trying to quit." Soon, I wake up.

      Personal Tutoring (8:20) (LUCID)

      Alone, I'm exploring a castle. After a while, I realize that walking is taking too long, so I take out my bike and start riding around instead. But even that gets boring, and I start wondering what else I could be doing. Just like that, I remember my dream goal about swimming in the ocean, and I realize that I'm dreaming.

      Moments later, I find myself again underneath the water in a swimming pool. Dumbledore is tutoring me in dream control. Rather than trying to force myself to the surface, he says, I should trust the dream to buoy me. This strikes me as real wisdom. I hold myself in cannonball position and focus on the sensation of being lifted and turned by the water. Soon, I wake up.

      Christian String Quartet (9:00)

      I'm sitting in a public area when suddenly I hear an acoustic guitar behind me. Cool, live music! When the string quartet starts playing a song, I'm not sure exactly what it's about at first, but I suspect (slightly uncomfortably) that it's Christian rock.

    13. #49 Flying Fast & #50

      by , 02-27-2013 at 06:58 PM (* The Sandman's Dream Journal o/***)
      Flying Fast

      I was driving down the highway with my friend M. We came to a 3-way ramp. The middle ramp was for cars coming towards us, and the other two were ramps for cars going our way.

      There were tiny, automatically driven cars coming down the middle ramp. We were lost, so I told M that we should write a note for one of the little cars to find out which we we were supposed to go.

      Then I was heading towards a tunnel. A very long truck loaded with boxes that filled his side of the tunnel completely was coming out. I was going in and it was really cramped. As I headed in, I was suddenly holding onto a car that was flying extremely fast, and I realized I was dreaming.

      I was going so fast, I could feel my stomach pulling at least an extra g. I started talking to someone that it felt like I must be going 300 miles per hour.

      Then I started singing Maybe I'm Amazed by Paul McCartney. I know my voice isn't that great, but I thought it sounded pretty good, and I was a little surprised at my power. I belted out a couple stanzas really enjoying the speed and the song.


      Then I was with my fgf, having lost lucidity.
      Spoiler for Sexy Time:


      I then woke up and went to the bathroom. I went back to bed and

      #50
      was lucid again. I saw a blonde and decided to get my hummer with her instead. I got it, but I couldn't feel it that well.


      That's all I remember of this dream. I'm not even really sure there was any more to it.

    14. Vibrations and Lucid Fragments

      by , 02-27-2013 at 04:42 PM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      I took 100mg caffeine. There was little to no insomnia. At some point I got vibrations but was unsure if it was the real deal because it was intermittent and weak. I thought I was able to move my arms so I waited for the dream to form. Usually movement is false during vibrations and I should have caught that. I think I remember getting out of bed at some point but I am not sure. I dont remember anything after that so I assume I fell non lucid.

      Earlier in the night during my WBTB alarm I was recalling my dream but fell alseep during. I became aware when I realized that I was entering in my DJ during a FA. Unfortunately when I became lucid the dream faded to weak HI. I probably could have DEILD but I then remembered that I was trying to WBTB and I looked at the clock. 20min had passed.

    15. First Lucid dream this year

      by , 02-27-2013 at 11:34 AM
      Finally I got a lucid dream!

      Bedtime: 01:30
      First wakeup: 08 : ??
      - wrote up the fragment and wrote "/I'm dreaming" and "/Thanks for dreamrecall" (but in my language) -
      Final wakeup: 09:50, right after the lucid dream.
      Supplements: none

      Elevator and street (Lucid dream)
      Me and my friend Mattias was in some kind of building. Not sure why we were there, but there was massive of people that followed us. We started to run and came into an elevator.
      I quickly pressed in a code [4-1-1-1] as I remember that would get us up to the top of the building rapidly fast. But it didn't work, instead it became only a number 1, which made the elevator to go down.

      When the elevator just had stopped, I told my friend to wait as I wanna see if this is a dream. So I ran towards the elevator door that was made of wood, and jumped with my head first. I went through the door and appeared on a street.

      I had no idea what I would do now. Somehow I just chosed to drive MC in the traffic.
      BUT, the weird thing was that I felt my legs in the bed, it was like pointing down in a 45 degree angle. It felt quite great to swing to right and left, except for the feelings in the legs.

      I started to wonder if I really are lucid dreaming or just day dreaming. I tried to listen and focus on the sounds, and I started to hear bus and other sounds you may hear in a traffic. The sounds felt very real and that made me more sure that I wasn't awake, that I really did lucid dream.

      I then stopped and thought of try to fly, as I remember that's a goal I have. But I had hard to stand straight up because of the feelings in the legs.

      I then started to wonder if I am breathing, that what if my body just stops breath. So I tried to breath but I didn't feel any air. I got worried and thought I might just try wake up.
      I tried to open the eyes, but it simply didn't work. I tried to roll aside, but that didn't work.
      Started to get panic and I shouted "HELP!", but only a small sound came out. But some seconds later I woke up.

      I also noticed I woke up on the other side of bed than in the dream I thought I were. I always sleep the 'correct' way in my bed. But in my dream I had my head where I have my feets, and my feets where I have my head.


      That's it.



      The black cat with puke/vomit (dream)
      There was a black cat outside my apartment (the cat seemed to be mine and I had to forget to take in the cat). The cat had vomit/puke on him, spots here and there.
      I took him in to my house (to my room that looks like my real room that I'm in right now).
      He wanted to go outside, so he tried to escape through my airing gap near the window. But he didn't fit through and I catched him. I was going to clean him but wasn't sure what other than water I would use.

      And there dream recall ended.


      Malin and her friend (fragment)
      Me, my gf Malin and her friend Josefin was in my gf's livingroom watching some kind of movie. My gf had fixed her gelé nails as she said she would do. They were blue. But they wasn't that long, and it looked just like she had put on nail polish.




      That's all I recalled today.
