lucid

House with bushland out back, possibly holiday house. Eating breakfast with boys when I notice a lot of large emu chicks out the back. Make noise to call them and they all look at me. Note to myself that I must record this in dream journal. Semi-lucid, given my note to self, but in other respects non-lucid.

Had a fun time this morning. I woke up at about 5:30am, but couldn't get back to sleep until well after 7am. I had a DILD but I've forgotten some of it since I had a WILD after that.

I don't remember anything before this now, but I remember I became lucid because I was trying to read some words on a card, and they kept dancing around all crazy. So I started walking down a hallway, all happy that I'm lucid. Then the thought hit me that I wanted to go through a mirror and find those demons, to ask them the proverbial questions: where did you come from, why did you harass me, then why haven't you returned? .. you know, that old chestnut. There was a really pretty full length mirror on the wall, with a decorative white border. I remembered that I designated 4 knocks was the combination to get me to their "lair". I knocked 4 times, then went through. The glass was really stiff, but I got through. It seems like the glass gets stiffer and stiffer, each time I go through one. Anyway, as soon as I got through, There was a plastic film in the way, and just on the other side of the film I could see a football player in an orange uniform. He pulled me through the plastic and said "Oh good, you're here!" But when he pulled me through, he left me suspended in midair lol. He went down the hall and said "This way!" then disappeared around the corner. "Hey! HEY YOU!! How do I get down?!" No answer. I could pivot left and right, but I was stuck in the air. I finally managed out of sheer will to get unstuck and I plopped down on the floor. I followed the direction the football player went, but I suddenly became over aware of my glasses. (We JUST talked about this yesterday in irc, can you believe it!) I took them off to see if I could see clear or not in the dream without them, but it was a little blurry, so I left them on. As I reached the end of the hall, I could hear a voice singing opera. I realized I was backstage, behind a huge red velvet curtain. It looked alot like the met stage. I opened the curtains slightly and peeked on stage, where I could see a tenor rehearsing an aria with piano accompaniment. I "think" it was "La donna e mobile" from Rigoletto. At this point my glasses were really bugging me, so I took them off. When I did that, another pair appeared. I took off maybe 5 pairs of glasses before I woke up.

I woke up and went back to sleep a 2 more times I think. When I woke up the next time, I was really relaxed, perfect temperature, nice and quiet, and I felt like I was moments from going back to sleep again. I felt the vibrations again, but this time they were really mild. In fact I heard them more than I felt them. This is kinda hard to describe, but it seems like that every time my hearing started to go, the sound of the fan got really weird. And I was also kind of able to control it a bit. It was a little disturbing at first, and it felt like it was keeping me from getting to sleep. I just let it cycle over me several times, until finally I felt like I was transitioning into a dream. I was really focusing on staying relaxed, and not getting too excited about the fact that I was about to have my 2nd WILD ever. I had the sensation of moving across the bed, like something was pulling me. Such an interesting sensation. I waited for images to appear behind my eyelids so that I would be able to open my dream eyes. I started to see some letters, and math problems, or chemical formulas appear. I decided to risk it and I slowly opened my eyes. I knew I was in a dream already (it felt just like my first WILD), because right when I opened my eyes and saw my bedroom, my body was lifted into a sitting position by an unseen force. I got up and started for the bathroom mirror, and noticed a digital clock on the floor that I don't own irl. The numbers were all jumbled and kept changing. Before I went into the bathroom, I asked if anyone was there. No reply. I went to the bathroom mirror and looked at myself. Sure enough, I always look about 25 and totally babelicious. Sigh. Anyway, this time I thought to "set the combination" first. One knock for the HP dimension, 2 knocks for some kind of Vampire dimension, and 3 knocks for the demon's lair. I said it aloud with each one. (I messed up though because 3 knocks was supposed to be alien planet, and 4 knocks is for the demons, curse you cohesive flow!) Anyway, I knocked 3 times, and went through the mirror, which still felt a bit stiff, but I could get through regardless. I was spit out into this huge grocery store. It was beautiful, green and silver. It almost looked like a palace, except it had aisles of food products, and fancy eating area. I was SO MAD. I felt so deceived by my subconscious. So I walked around, looking for some DCs to beat up or something, I was mad and I wanted to take it out on someone lol. I walked past a table where some people were sitting, and I saw these hot twin guys. I thought "Twins TWINSSSS" they looked at me and smiled. I turned around and turned boy. When I turned back to the table, there was an even hotter guy leaning over it, talking to the twins. I played with that guy, then myself, got a bit bored then woke up.

I didn't accomplish the goal, but I did have my 2nd successful WILD, and still got to do alot of fun stuff. Still, I need a new list of goals. I'll still probably use the mirror, but I may not try so hard to force the outcome.

Woke up on 8/17/12
*Only remember fragments of some dreams
*Before the following dreams I had other lucid dreams. However, since I can’t remember the old ones I will only count the ones I remember into my total.
*My lucidity carried over from previous dreams, so I tried to remember to do reality checks in the following dreams.

Successful WILD
Successful reality checks

In no particular order:

1) The first thing I can remember is that I was in some plain area with fencing around it (The floor was probably just dirt). I remember being lucid in previous dreams so I attempted to hold on to my lucidity. I did a hand reality check and my hand seemed normal but because I was already lucid I tried to force something to happen. Soon my hands attached to each other and I had four fingers on the left side and three on the right. I don’t understand why I was so determined to perform a reality check when I was already lucid. I probably just wanted reassurance. I attempted flying first by jumping a few times, and I got higher and higher like I expected. Somehow, gravity was pulling me down and though I tried to fight it by jumping over and over I was unable to overcome it. It was as if there was a height limit and I wasn’t able to pass it. I was back to where I began my flying attempt and this time I tried to swing my arms up as hard as I possibly could. I did this a few times and went up higher than I expected, but after a brief moment of floating I could feel gravity pulling me down again. Once again I was back where I started and I began jumping again, but instead I turned a little to the left so that I was looking at the corner of the fence and I jumped forward bouncing myself over the fence and over a few small pieces of scenery that I cannot remember clearly. There was one obstacle that I believe was a wall. It looked green and I remember thinking that I wasn’t going to make it over, but I don’t remember what happened. The dream must have ended.

2) Like the previous dream, I was lucid from dreams that happened early in my sleep and tried to hold on to that lucidity. I was in some building with gray was walls, though the mood wasn’t at all scary or depressing. I was standing in the middle of what I can best describe as a doorway without a door in it. It was simply an opening into another room. The opening was about 10 feet wide and the walls were about half a foot to a foot thick. I looked down at my hands once again, trying to assure myself that I was lucid. I tried to concentrate on something being wrong with them and I think that eventually they did become odd in some way (I think I just keep looking and eventually I could see another finger on my left hand). The dream faded before I knew it.

3A) I was in my taekwondo class and people were practicing with nunchucks. I don’t remember many details besides the people who were there. When we were done my mom gave my friend a ride to our house. I went to the bathroom while he used our computer, but the view was of him at the computer.

*The following dream is somehow connected to the previous dream. It may be an alternate series of events starting from getting in the car.

3B) I am outside of a supermarket (I assume it is a Wal-Mart. This is explained in the dream notes in Section 3.1B). I get in my mom’s car and we are about to take someone home (Instead of being the friend from taekwondo he is a guy who used to go to my school). He gets out of the car and starts talking to his friends. While we are waiting he turns into a female dream character without me realizing it. I ask if she is coming and she waves us off. My mom begins driving and as the dream went on, I went from traveling in a car to pushing a shopping cart on foot. At one point, I push the shopping cart into a thin wooden board that was resting on a wire fence at a steep angle hoping to drive it over the wire fence by using the board (I don’t realize how odd my attempt is. The board was almost parallel to the fence). It doesn’t work, so I decided to back up to get more momentum. I run faster attempting to push the cart over the fence once again. It goes higher, but I am still unsuccessful. I leave the cart behind and easily climb over the fence. Behind it is a type of junkyard area with tan-colored dirt and a couple of tall huts made of some material of the same color (maybe even the same dirt) surrounding the area. The huts rest on a wall of dirt that surrounds the small area. I find it boring and proceed to different areas. As I explore I see elaborate playgrounds in different directions. One was in the distance in a wooded area. The playground was made of tall logs and had pointy roofs. I kept exploring and the biomes changed very quickly (in a way very similar to how biomes change in Minecraft. I’m in a grassy area one moment and ahead I would see a circular area of sand connecting to the beach; once I’m off the sand, there would suddenly be grass again. I eventually make it to some playground for a short period of time then start traveling again. For some reason, I’m looking for my school at one point. I reach it and the dream gets gray; it looks like it does on a cloudy afternoon. I go down one hallway and walk inside the office, though it looks nothing like the office in my school. I see two soda machines and two snack machines and I end up with wet paper towels in my hand which I try to stuff up the change compartment of the vending machines (This is explained in the dream notes in section 3.2B). A student next to me is doing the same and I make a comment about how I am surprised that he has also heard of the trick. I then say that I heard about it yesterday from a guy I knew. Behind us was a room with glass windows surrounding it. There were thin support beams in between the windows. My mom was sitting at a table in the room with two sodas.

Dream Notes:

General: The previous day, I performed more reality checks than I have ever done in one day. This contributed immensely to my lucidity and high level of awareness.

3.0B) I watched an episode of Wildest Police Videos the day before this dream. In one clip a man and his son were pulled over, but shot the cop and drove away. The police surrounded their car outside of a Wal-Mart and shot them. The scene in my dream was exactly the same as the scene in the clip (aside from the violence, cop cars, and guns of course).

3.1B) I volunteer at Habitat for Humanity. A guy I know there who is doing community service was getting a soda the day before this dream. He started talking to us about how he used to stuff paper towels up the change compartment to catch the change and take it out at the end of the day to see how much money would come out. This is what I was doing in the dream.

I haven't been lucid in so long and now I am.

I was in stressful situation where my family had left me for some event. I tried to ask them what happened but they said I had missed out because I had to buy a ticket to get into the pool. I forgot about them and said "well, I just I'll just go home." I felt depressed ad was going to find away when I realized I was barricaded in this area where the pool was and the parking lot. All the sudden I said wait "I'm dreaming!" and I said it so loud within myself that I launched up into the air. I flew and it felt thrilling, like I was on a roller coaster. I came to realized that I don't need to ask myself If I want to lucid dream that I needed to connect to the higher good to lucid dream. I then flew and noticed a young lady who looked a bit like an older Anne Frank with her hair up in a bun with a child who was sitting and reading a book at a park below me. She looked up from where she was sitting and smiled at me like she knew something was going to happen, I awoke with this tucked into my mind.

Guenhwyvar

[This dream happened on August 22nd, at around 10AM]
[So uh... the last DJ entry i posted was almost a month ago... Well i was feeling really down for a while now and my lucidity was going bad as well, but i hope to change it now ]
[Both this dream and the upcoming one were inspired by the Dark Elf Trilogy i'm reading currently]

I was just walking on the street really close to my old school, when for some unknown reason i became lucid. I realized that i didn't have stable and worthy lucid dream since a while, so i become pretty happy.

I didn't think much about what to do, for some reason i thought of Guenhwyvar almost as soon as i became lucid. [He is a spectral black panther in the books]. I didn't plan anything, but wanted him to appear. As soon as i turned a bit to my right side, there he was, standing in all his glory.

I didn't really have time to say anything to him or look at him more closely, because he just run off almost instantly, towards the lower end of the street. I immediately started running after him and catched up fast.
He suddenly stopped at a house, which's car entrance to the garden was open. I looked in there and noticed something between the shrubbery. It looked somewhat like a huge white dog-ish creature, but it was standing on two feet. It looked angry for some reason.

Before i could do or say anything, Guenhwyvar just jumped in there and attacked the dog like creature. I wanted to help him out, just in case, so i ran up to them and tried to fight the creature, but instead of fighting, i automatically started hugging the black panther.
I just hugged him near his neck and didn't really know why i did that, but it was an interesting feeling putting my head on his black fur.

Soon i was just staring at him while still hugging and then i got lost in the black, woke up.

[Well, haha, i have no idea why that hug was, other than that i got to like him in the books, but still... i didn't even control my actions when i hugged him]
[The dream was pretty short, but it was somewhat more stable now than the ones i had for weeks before]


----------------------------------------------------------------------


To Be Sacrificed

[This dream is from August 23rd, around 8:35AM]
[I find it pretty interesting how the books can influence even my lucid dreams... ]

I was being harassed by 4 old classmates, while i was sitting in my old school at a lesson. They were standing outside at the big windows and making fun of me. I got tired of this and just thought that maybe i'm dreaming and i can do something about it... so i walked through the wall and grabbed two of them by their necks and put them into the wall halfway. They got stuck in there while the others ran away.
I got more aware now, but not lucid yet.

Soon i flew above the street and when i got to the same part where i became lucid yesterday [the dream above this one] i remembered that dream and became lucid again.

Now i was more aware of myself than yesterday and before doing anything, i instantly stabilized by rubbing my hands together. When rubbing them, i noticed that i have some heavy gloves on, but i didn't care about them too much. I turned around to check my environment.
There was an old stooped woman walking slowly away from me and when i looked at her back i got all dizzy, so i started stabilizing again.
When i was done, i decided to move on.
[I forgot a part here, all i know is that i went back to my school and did something there, so a bit of time skip here]

I came out of my old school at a backdoor, but the place where i got to was unknown to me. It was a small garden, with those huge white greek columns on all sides. There were creeper plants coming down from the walls on all sides. There was a little sidewalk on the left side of the small garden, it was made of red pavement stones.
I was standing on this sidewalk.

I started walking near the garden when i realized that on my left side, there was no wall anymore and it lead to some kind of street, but it didn't look like the streets in my town at all. I got curious so i turned that way and moved on, but then before i could leave the area, i heard voices from my right side and from behind me. [I became a little scared here].

I turned around and noticed a small altar at the right end of the sidewalk. Two female drow were standing next to it, fully naked and both held a dagger in their hands. The grip on the daggers looked like a spider, so i already knew they must be priestesses of Lolth, with sacrifice daggers.
Then i noticed another drow woman behind me, she was well dressed and her clothes made me think that she is an important person as they were all gold, black and red. She had a whip in her hand.

I didn't have too much time to think of the situation, because i soon heard the clothed drow say:
- Go and get her!
The naked ones reacted instantly, with respect in their voices:
- Yes, mistress.

They started walking towards me, with evil grins on their faces and grabbing the daggers more furiously now. One of them started walking faster, leaving the other one behind, but she didn't mind as i've seen and she just stopped to watch instead.

Spoiler for +18:

I couldn't help, but admire her naked body. It was the first time i've seen a naked drow in my dreams and it seemed pretty realistic. Her obsidian black body was mesmerizing in the sunlight. I also couldn't help but notice how she had some white hair at her private parts, it matched color perfectly with the hair on her head

Once she got close enough, i decided that it was enough of staring, i flew up into the air as i got a little scared now and i wanted to fly away from there... but then i had a thought, that i shouldn't fear them as they are just dream characters.
I turned back to her while still floating in the air and told her:
- I don't fear you!
Her evil grin still didn't disappear from her face when she said:
- Oh, i don't believe you.

Without much hestitating, the first thing that i thought of was a fireball, so i created one and immediately thrown it at her. It exploded as soon as it reached her, but she didn't seem too affected by it.
Her body had some burn marks and there were small embers on her body. Her hair was still on fire, but she just started laughing.

As i was staring at her, i woke up.

[Um... yeah, that was interesting I think i already know that i should try and get to know a drow girl from closer soon ]
[Oh well, anyway, i welcome these FR inspired dreams anytime ]

Lucid UFOs, sisters, and lazer tag. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Tonight I finnaly had a lucid dreaming again, and damn it felt good. I sadly had this dream pretty early on in the night, so I fell asleep after it was done. This means It's nowhere near as clear for me right now as I'm writing it, as it was right when I woke up. I have left out certain details, because I don't remember them. I also know I left out a part of the story, involving stealing candy from a store, because I just don't remember most of the details. This is why it's important to write your dreams down, IMMEDIATELY after waking up. It's really annoying for me, because I knew some of the parts I forgot about, was so fucking cool. Anyway, the parts I wrote down, was pretty damn awesome too. So enjoy!

I was at a mall with a friend, and we were talking about random stuff. At one point, we get into the topic of lucid dreaming. I remember to do my reality check, and I count 8 fingers. This was one of the weirdest reality checks I've had, since my hands looked totally normal, and the amount of fingers looked normal, yet there was 8.
I recounted, and recounted, and recounted. 5,5,6,6. It kept changing. I now knew I was lucid, so I decided to do something with it.
I Somehow thought that I had to fall asleep again, to lucid dream. Which was super weird. So I layed down in one of the shops, and started sleeping.


I woke up in a hybrid mix of my dads new house, my dads old house, and another house that doesn't exist. I was sleeping in kind of a treehouse, inside my own house. So there was a tree, branching in through a window in my hous, where I made a treehouse on that branch. It's pretty weird, but it looked cozy as fuck. Anyway, I count my fingers again,
and yep, there is still 6. At the point of counting my fingers, I had been dreaming a bit, and fucked around in the house. I wasn't lucid at the time, but I remember doing normal dreaming stuff.
When I found out I was lucid, everything started to fade. I then quickly spun around, because I knew I was going to wake up. I kept spinning and spinning, until It was all dark. I then opened my eyes, and saw where I was.
I was at my fathers summerhouse, with my smallest little sister, and my oldes little sister. I talked with them, and told them it was a lucid dreamin, so they could do whatever they want. I remember them trying to fly, but not really getting the hang of it. They started climbimg trees, and running super fast, and other fun dream stuff.
I started flying around, and just generally looking around the dream scenerie. I took it kind of slow, since I didn't want to wake up fast. I started wandering around, and at one point, I remember feeling really cold. The weather was dark grey, and very windy. I spawned 2 jackets, and gave them to my sisters. I then spawned another one for myself.
I started wandering off, just to see how far I could go in this dream. I had allready explored the "dream garden", which was cool as fuck. but I wanted to see what else was around, and maby what would happen if I reached "The end of the dream". At one point, I saw my fathers driveway to his old house, which was apparently connected to the summer house area (it obviously) isn't in real life)
I met Katrine, who is my bigger sister, and started talking to her. For a moment I got worried about my other sister, but since I knew it was a dream, I knew they where ok. I told her I was dreaming, and that she was kind of dreaming too, because she was in my dream. She naturally didn't believe me, so I wanted to do something that was going to proove it.
At that moment, a giant sphere appeared. It looked absolutely fucking amazing. It was a UFO, shaped like a ball. It kind of looked like the moon, but with all kinds of tech stuff on it. It was about 40x40metress, and it was floating right infront of us. She got her camera up, and started taking pictures. It slowly moved over us, and away from us. I can honestly say it was one of the coolest things I've 'made' in a lucid dream.
Since she now knew I wasn't fucking around, she asked me what to do now. I told her she could do whatever she wants, but she won't remember it once I wake up. Mindfuck moment right there.. Deep. I asked if she wanted to play lazer tag, and so we did. My lucidity expired in the middle of my game of lazer tag, and I just dreamed on about us playing lazer tag, just without control.

Had on 8/22/12

For about 10 minutes I feel the start of the WILD coming on. I fight it a little, but then let it wash over me. When I realize I am now in the dream I try to stabilize the dream by engaging all 5 senses. I am able to use all the senses, but sound.

When I make it to the door of the room I do the slandered nose pinch RC just to make sure. When I exit out into the kitchen I walk to the stove where some potatoes are cooking like baked potatoes. I reach into the pot a pull a little off and stuff it into my mouth for taste.

I then walk to the front door. When I exit the house I try to think about something to do. The only thing that I can think of is trying to pass my hand through something again. (As the last time I did this with my finger through my hand it made me ill in the dream. and I have wanted to try it with a solid object since.) I walk to one of the pillars holding up the overhang on the porch and try to pass my whole hand through it. I tell myself this should be easy as the pillar does not really exist. I am able to pass my hand through it, but I get poked by a splinter or something which hurts. After this I pull my hand back out and start to think about what to do next when I lose the dream and wake.

around 7 to 8 a.m.:

I felt like I was pulled through my toes while I'm lying down. I see a lot of glitters. Sparkling. Not bright but distracting. I thought "Finally, I'm aware as I am about to fall asleep!" The feeling of dragging stopped. I smiled. I knew i'm in a dream now. I "woke up" in a strange place. My feet is hanging from the knees down on a cabinet. The rest of my body is "lying" on thin air. I said this is a dream, so I should be able to go through the wall. I pushed "up" with my face, but got stuck. I can't go through the wall. Starting to lose awareness. Told myself I'm aware while I'm dreaming. Not very helpful.

"Blacked out" due to lights, i.e. moving sun. Still got glimpses of light and images. Tried to morph my hands. The most it did was glow white and more fingers. Tentacly. Losing awareness. Decided to just observe. Still no good. Glow. I asked Master Zombie to appear and teach me. I saw the Isetann grocery where I did that test yesterday. Fell asleep.

Dream: Dorm. Travel. Orange. Glow.

Okay, let's see how much of this I can still remember... I haven't really had the chance to type up this entry until now.

I was at home, in the living room. The keyboard was there, right where it used to be (it's been in my room for ages now, though). For the purpose of having more space for the crowd of people, I'm assuming, the one couch not facing the TV was missing, and the room was slightly bigger.

There was this rope hanging from the ceiling, and I guess the part about people pulling it was fairly important, but I can't remember much of that now.

What I do remember is Andrea, a girl I sort of work with over the summer, running up the stairs and saying to me, "I thought you were going to be tighter."

As with many a strange thing a DC has said, I understood her meaning perfectly, despite her rather odd choice of words. She was referring to me resolving to be stricter with my reward system for LDing.

Apparently, she wasn't referring exclusively to my reward system, but also LDing techniques in general, as I replied, "I am; I write down my dreams every morning."

There's a small gap here that I can't quite remember now, but I do remember seeing my friend Giana shortly afterwards. I looked down at my hand as an RC, took note of the extra finger, then told her I'd be right back because I had to go to the bathroom. Clearly, my subconscious still had control over dream-me.

I went into the bathroom and closed the door. I'd heard that touch was a sense that was often overlooked in dreams, so I decided to pay attention to how things felt - the door handle, the floor (I had bare feet), the light switch, even my jeans as I pulled them down; they all felt just as they would IWL, and the door handle and floor even felt somewhat cold.

I got so carried away with paying attention to tactile sensations that I unintentionally closed my eyes so I could focus more on this sense. Almost as soon as I did, I realized my mistake, and sort of freaked out a little, as my previous experiences with closing my eyes had almost always resulted in me waking up.

Well, I didn't exactly wake up right away. The dream abruptly changed to a weird post on some forum that doesn't exist... and THEN I woke up.

5-12-12

Me and this girl must fight each other in this video game on the computer. Whoever loses must flush themselves with these dimensional urinals that will transport people to who knows where, The game involves flying around in this cave or volcano filled with lava so not only must you dodge the lava you got to kill your opponent. I lose the first round. My attacks did barely any damage to my opponent and she dominates me. I then ask the guy that made us do this if the first round counts as a real loss because the game has five rounds in it. The guy says to play all five rounds. My opponent is supposed to be a rookie but she is very good.

My shoots do little damage to her and hers kills me quickly. I lose all five rounds. I was told these dimensional urinals also gives people a random deformity. I sit in the urinal and I flush. All of a sudden I feel a quick rush of speed and everything seems to just be going fast. I feel very dizzy but when I finally got myself together I see I am inside a room in a house. I see a mirror and decide to look at it to see what my deformity will be. Nothing has changed except I have more fat in my cheeks. I leave the room and see a fat man watching T.V, I pay him no mind. I ask the man "How do I manifest things?" I don't remember his reply but I don't think it was helpful.

I go and get some juice from the fridge. I then go into the hallway so he won't see me. I become partially lucid and I try to ground msyself. I tell myself "Take it slowly..." I rub the wall and try to feel it but I don't go it long enough. I then reach for a pill in my pocket to cure the deformity. I get a tiny little pill. I then look for that Juice I got earlier so I can take it. It wasn't there at first but when I looked away and looked back it appeared. I took the pill but not the juice. I then feel something huge in my mouth like I just got a giant tooth. I try to spit it out but then a dream shift occurs.

I am in my parents home now. I am trying to sleep but this little girl keeps taking the sheets away from me. I am sleeping on the couch. I get angry. I try to ask her nicely to stop but she gives me a weird look. I speak to a DC that resembles a friend from school. Based on the conversation I believe he was talking about my last 'dream' I just had and how it could not have been a dream but just me sleep walking. I for some reason say "I didn't hear a meow"

I was sort of depressed that I could not recall any dreams from the night before. I woke up about 6:20 judging how no-one was awake, and I never heard the alarm. 10 minutes pass, then the 6:30 alarm goes off, wakes my brother up(As you can likely guess, we share a room), it causes a lot of noise.. I decided it would be a good morning to try a WILD. I laid down for a few minutes(felt like 20-30) then felt really relaxed. I start saying "I WILL have a lucid, I WILL have a lucid." After about two minutes sleep paralysis hit, and I thought of my living room, said to myself "stabilize lucidity", and the lucid dream starts.

First lucid:
I was standing in my living room. It was so clear and vivid that I couldn't believe it. I thought to myself how I was lying in bed just a moment ago, and now here I am in a new place. A new world surrounding me. I walked into my parents' room, there I saw a light bulb in a socket on the wall which didn't belong there. I unscrewed it, then held it in my hand trying to light it up as it was in its socket a second ago. I failed..I then went around the corner to see my dad playing Zynga's Frontierville (a game which he has never played before), he asks me how to obtain a whip then I lose interest. I go back to the living room, close my eyes for a second to change scenery, and woke up.

Seems to be a mix of layer two and layer three lucid dream since I got pretty distracted by what my dad was doing. I wonder if I woke up due to my dream time being over, excitement, lack of goals, or because of my waking environment. Like I said, me and my brother share a room, and since he was already awake, he started making noise. He also had the light on right above me which may have prevented a deep sleep.
I fell back asleep after like 45 minutes. Not sure just what this dream started with..

Second lucid-A mansion, with prisoners:
I appear to be in a lab with like 4-5 scientists around me. I am a guinea pig for a new piece of technology that would allow you to enter into lucid dreams at will from a waking state. Sort of like doing a WILD, but with technology, making it more akin to EILD. I get this chip that you hold in your hand, it supposedly makes you lucid. So I go into what looks/feels like a tanning bed, hold the chip in my hands and fall asleep quick.
I "wake up" in this huge mansion of sorts. I seem to know in the back of my mind it is a dream, but I lose focus on that and get involved with the story instead. I moderate a minecraft server, and it seems a bunch of my friends from the server are in a prison, apparently being kept there by another player and antagonist on the server called EnderMilk. After some effort, I find him, but try to keep my distance. I phase through a wall to see the prisoners, and they look so helpless. I try to find a way to help them. I go back inside the mansion through a window, but the dream destabilizes and I wake up for real.

Well, two lucid dreams, even if they were kinda short-lived it is a start!

After looking back on these experiences, it seems the second dream was more of a mix of layer zero and layer two just barely. This is one of those experiences where people think they dream of being lucid rather than actually being lucid.

my son slept in the corner of some room. Before me was a table and there were strange electrical wires on it. They were mooving like they were snakes. I understood that it was a dream and count fingers - six. Then i began to loose awareness, pull one of the wires and woke up.

08-23-2012 -- [All right, the title of this one is because I had a nice lucid dream this morning which I enjoyed, and would not mind repeating ... unlike the nasty, miserable, soul-crushing lucid dream I had a few days ago. (I will get that one posted eventually.) That one actually chased me away from posting dreams for a few days, it made me so miserable. Still have been dreaming, and writing them down, just haven't had the 'psychic' energy to post them for a few days.]

I am in school, sitting in a class that just ended. Everybody is gathering their stuff together, and I glance at the desk next to me, where somebody was just sitting. I think they've got graffiti all over it, but as I reach for a rag to try and force it off, it just blows away. Covered in dust. And I realize I dust this desk quite often, and somehow it is always covered in dust again.

I turn to tell Mrs. Walton [high school English teacher] but she's gone. I'm amazed how quickly she got out of there. There is a custodian who has come in to clean the room, but no teacher. As I am pondering this, Mrs. Walton comes back in, and I mention the dust, but she doesn't much care. I finish gathering my books, and walk out of the classroom.

I glance at the quad and admire the volcano (well, it is kind of a cross between a tropical volcano and Big Thunder-style rock work) and think to myself "That really looks nice ... wait a minute, that's not supposed to ... I'm dreaming!" No reality check, no questioning. I know that doesn't belong, so I am dreaming.

I can remember my plans for the next lucid dream I have, quite plainly. I have to find S. and have a good time. I start to wonder where I might find her at. I don't know her class schedule ... heck, this is a dream, I don't even know my own class schedule. I don't want to chase all around the campus looking for her. I sit down at a picnic table to think about it.

There is a slim, fairly attractive blonde approaching me, and she wants to talk to me, and she seems to be really friendly. I tell her I have to find S., and she says something like "Isn't she gay?" I pull her against me for a kiss, and within a couple of seconds she is all over me, grinding against me, completely mine. I gently push her back and tell her "S." "Whatever you say," she moans. "I'll try and help you draw her in!" I gently wipe the drool that is starting to run down her chin from how into me she is, after that kiss. [Lucid dream power, she can't resist me. And AFAIK, S. is not, and never has been gay.]

As we're about to walk off, the scene has turned to a gas station, and some guy has just pulled up in a truck and is shooting off his mouth, insulting people. He's horribly mean to this little kid, and he thinks he is cool because he is being horribly mean in really great voice mimics. Because he sounds like several actors, it is cool that he is cursing at this poor kid.

I don't like the guy, but I come face to face with him while climbing in my car. He has the most brilliant, bright blue eyes I have ever seen, and as I open the door I am thinking "no way is that guy human. He's an alien or something." I've climbed into the back seat of my car instead of the front, and somebody starts driving it away. I look up at the sun roof, and the guy with the blue eyes is trying to crawl through it, and I am starting to fight him off.

I still know I am dreaming, and taking care of this guy is going to be easy, but since I wake up about this time, got nowhere further. Fun little dream, though.

Apparently I got lucid last night but all I wrote down was this:

Lucid in old burned down basement. Keep having to lick walls to stay lucid. Trying to solve why it's burned down. Have a FA, mess around with powers and focus.

Too bad I don't remember the dream nor writing that down. It doesn't sound too awesome though

This dream once again occurred this morning, 23 August 2012. It contained some brief moments of lucidity, and was interruped when I woke up around 6 am.

We begin in a university classroom, which for some reason looks very much like a classroom in a high school or elementary school. I'm sitting in for a social studies class, on the political history of the United States or something, and in contrast to my regular courses I don't find this interesting - I find it VERY interesting. Most of my friends in my program have already left. The teacher continues an explanation. By 11 am (or is it 1 pm?), I'll be beginning my first day in Physics class. My phone rings.

The person hanging out outside appears to be me, but I can't really identify with this person, so maybe it's my alter-ego. For sanity purposes, I'll refer to this individual in the first person.

I'm doing an extreme sports stunt on a bike, not a skateboard. The scene shifts toward somewhere else. Suddenly, the police catch us, and we're denied permission to enter my next class.

I don't want to go with the cops, I think. Yet my phone prompts me to, and I enter the principal's office.

Somewhere along the line, I'm walking in a hallway on campus in what seems to be a big environment building. I suddenly realize that I'm dreaming, and begin to look around at the walls, the windows, and the students.

I drift in and out of consciousness, of sleep. The waking-life version of myself seems to be paralyzed, so I drift back into sleep, with much effort. The scene changes.

I'm in the principal's office, and a thought drifts into my mind. I think of writing these things down, to publish certain things on Twitter when I wake up, with codes B, C, and D. The D code refers to detention, while the B code is something later on in the alphabet. The D code says to the teacher:

"Am I in detention, or am I free to go?"

This is something that I picked up from a video showing how to deal with the police. Rule number one is be calm and don't be crass.

I'm given a list of options, from life in prison to one day free to whatever else. The best option, they say, is Baptism.

The official looks rather puzzled and pauses for a moment, but after a while says that I'm free to go. I remember the buildings on campus, but I never make it to my physics class.

At home, it seems that my dad has lesions on his neck, which look like cancerous lips protrouding from the base of the chin. We go to the doctor, and then suddenly I'm in this waiting room.

I remember a TV commercial about healthcare options. Even though I know trhat I'm lucid, I think it would be wrong to change the scenery while I'm walking through that hallway again. So I walk up to the reporter at the receptionist desk:

"Hi, I'm looking for healthcare options for my dad".

The reporter, who seems to be African-Canadian, shakes his head.

Flashback - in a dark cave dismantling something to the next level.

The doctor finds that the lesions are cancerous, but traditional chemotherapy would have done more harm than good. A new emerging field in medicine, nutshot oncology, has proven that these lesions are treatable by other methods.

Have a nice glass of glastnost!

Jail or Baptism?

On YouTube, the number of likes are hidden, but it's wavering around 50%. A certain scene is depicted, and the likes rise above the half-point mark when we win, and fall below when we lose. It shifts in a gyroscopic circular manner, like the Moon around the Earth around the Sun, and then the Moon will be flung away, pulling Earth-Moon out of its orbit.

"But the Moon has been around for four billion years!"

In high school, I send some people an email with facial icons for each of their respective profiles. For some reason, the guys' images are larger. I tell him not to skip class.

In social studies class we talk about "nutshot porn". That's gross.

As I walk outside my residence room in the morning, it's chilly. Yet, for whatever reason, my sweater is wet and damp.

I wake up early to go swimming.
