lucid

So last night i had a dream i was a lucid master. i spawned in this area i remember being very rocky and the sky was dimmed. i remember what someone told me on this site to mantra in my head "i will have a long lucid dream" and i did and fortunantally it worked. so i remember wanting to do a rasengan so i put my palm out focused hard. and then it happened i was walking around with it and smashed it into things. i cant really recall much but i remember trying to chidori. id get really short burst of lightning so instead i tryed a "Raikiri" the louder i yelled this the more powerful the strike was. when i yelled it a giant amount of lightning came around me and shot out as if a short ranged explosive attack. so then i used raikiri to focus into my palm by not yelling it and i did a chidori! i was happy so i started running. i saw this piece of yellowish glass and i used my chidori on it. a straight hole went through it and i cheered knowing i was lucid. sooner or later n the dream i ended up in this brown village city kind of thing except it looked like the sand village from naruto. people were in there i remember calling a girl hot and her telling me i already did once so then i was talking to this girl because we ended up somewhere and i remember closing my eyes and i woke up! i was sad but quickly tried to sleep again and i did. i could see reality on the bottom half of my vision and the dream in the next and then sooner or later it went back into the dream. this time when i went it i wasnt lucid at first and then i said. "this is a dream" so i walked around to find a dream character and i told him this was a dream and he said "no way!" i continued on and i found my friend devyn he was in a really black robe with red eyes and a coat. i think we challenged eachother to a duel i remember us both going back and he spreaded apart his coat and it expanded like 30x covering almost all the land in the battle field. He started charging at me and also not to mention he had a puppet in front of him like kankuro in naruto. i charged up my rasengan and ran towards him before he could wrap me in the coat i rasenganed his puppet. using this in another lucid dream i had i learned to use it or become comfortable with it. his puppet flew backwards along with him but he was still standing coming at me at a faster rate this time. i knew i couldent run because the coat was just to long so i stood there while he was charging at me and yelled "RAIKIRI!" lighting shot out everywhere hitting him the coat the puppet. after that i ethier cant recall anything or woke up. But that was one awesome lucid

I Am Speed [DILD]

This was a very long dream. I remember vaguely playing this game before this happened, but not much of the content. I was playing some new Pokémon ROM based on Red and Blue that I was apparently making, and was amazed at how good it was. (Even in the dream, I didn't actually remember making it.) I was showing D how crazy it was, but I only remember that from hearing it in the background; the screen took up my entire vision. I was in a Cinnabar Island-like area, and I laughed that at one point the whole map went from black and white to color, then back again almost instantly. I went inside the Pokémon center and the scene totally changed. It was some big panoramic view of a bar scene, with the healing station up in the front with an animated background playing behind it. I can't remember much of what happened there at the bar, but I got sucked into it and started experiencing it in first-person perspective. I met this girl there who I've known since elementary school, and I've been calling her M but for the sake of not mixing her up with my more current friend, I'll stick to ML from now on. I think she said something about some people being injected with some drug or virus, but they may have been inserted later by my false awakening.... Anyway, this dream was REALLY long, even from this point on, it had to have been at least another 20 or 30 minutes. Unfortunately a lot of my memory of this point is lost, but I'm pretty sure I became at least somewhat lucid somewhere in here.

I don't remember the realization, but I do remember the clarity of thought, knowing I had control, and remembering that it was lucid in my false awakening. For most of the dream, ML and I were trying to get away from this guy I used to hang out with named JB, who had been chasing us ever since the bar. He ended up following us around some huge building which I don't recognize as anywhere real, but it contained all types of strange rooms and structures. We were flying to get away from him, and my memory starts coming back in when we were in a movie theater room. We were just trying to watch the movie, but we sensed that he was there again, and ML slowly whispered to me to fly backwards into him. I did that and it totally caught him off guard, and then we both zoomed off. My memory gets a little hazy for a second, but then I'm standing a hallway somewhere in the building. I started flying forward again, and this time I started thinking to myself that "I am the fastest I could ever be, no one is faster than I am." My speed started increasing faster and faster and faster, and everything in my vision was moving so quickly that it looked like it was just bouncing all around my line of sight. Then finally, reality broke. My perception of my speed passed some kind of barrier, and it was no longer that I was feeling how fast I was going as much as it was that I just was speed... like there was no "normal" speed to compare it to. Very hard to describe. I was hit with the sudden feeling that the entire building map was open to me simultaneously, like I could see around all walls at once. I was still moving, so I was just warping all around the building. I was moving so quickly that my environment was just flashing and warping from one scene to the next. I felt like I was bursting with power but also pushing myself out of control, and then it suddenly faded. I guess I made it too unstable.

False Awakening - I woke up and tried sooo hard to get all of this dream typed up. N and D were both there and they wouldn't shut the fuck up. I kept telling them "Seriously guys, this dream was so amazing, please just let me type it." They would agree for half a second and then continue trying to distract me with stuff, and N wouldn't stop talking about how whenever he sings the lyrics to "Brown Eyed Girl" he gets it wrong and says either "blonde eyed" or "green eyed". (I can't remember which he said, I think it was the former, though.) D kept trying to hand me some keyboard, which I claimed was "memory foam" and told him to go put it in my parents' bedroom. Of course, if I'd looked around for even a second I would have realized that the environment I was in looked NOTHING like my house, and was in fact actually more similar to the building from the dream, but... oh well. When I finally woke up so much memory of the dream had escaped me. But I least I got what I did.

Two lucid dreams in one night! It was awesome! First one was a false awakening, and the second was a false awakening WILD. (DEILD?)

When I successfully succeeded in the WILD, though, it was really dark. I said very loudly "STABILIZE NOW," but nothing really happened. Everything was all wibbly-wobbly. Since it was dark, I decided to make it light, so I said "LIGHT NOW." A bright light showed up, out of my mouth I think, and my vision went black. I tried to think of what to do, so I tried to do the spin-teleport to the meadow, but I ended up just waking up.

4/17/12
I had my recurring dream. This time, I was in some sort of old school or hotel with some friends from high school, and under a staircase we found a collection of old pianos. We were playing them, but I also remember feeling like we didn't have much time, and I think everyone was evacuating for a fire.

4/18/12
I was really mad about something and I was throwing shit, and my mom was like, "Are you mad because of ****" (I'll keep him anonymous) and I was like, "YES HAVEN'T YOU BEEN LISTENING?!?!?!"

4/19/12
The only part I remember from this dream is when I became lucid. I think I just somehow realized I was dreaming. I was in my kitchen, and my family was with me, and all of a sudden I realized it was a dream, so I said "I'm lucid dreaming" and I just kept repeating it so that I wouldn't lose the dream. And I remember laughing cuz I was so happy that for no reason at all I just realized it. But I think I drifted back off into the dream because I don't remember anything else.

There was going to be some sort of party at my friend Jesse's house, but I couldn't find my car, so I asked my other friend DJ to drive me there.

In the Anime Club room, my ex-girlfriend was there, but she was deaf. She started singing, but would pause every now and then as if she were trying to remember how to hit certain notes. It sounded pretty good, but wasn't the best thing ever. Class started so I wasn't able to give her advice.

I had a false awakening. I walked into my living room and started looking for a sticky note to write my DJ entry on, but then I remembered to do my reality check. Lo and behold, I was dreaming. It was dark, so I couldn't look at my hands to stabilize myself, and when I tried to speak, I woke up. I could hear my sister being reeeeeeally loud in the other room so I probably couldn't stabilize because of that.

Dream #1 This little thing of ours.

Im in a room (possibly one of my dream homes i built) talking to Natalia about our status.
So we just gonna keep yelling at eachother for nothing?
"Nobody told you to do it, you did it YOURSELF"!
Forget it, just forget it. (obviously she is upset about what i do not know)
Where are we right now hm? HM?
"What are you talking about"?
I mean where do we stand? This little thing of ours?
"I am who you want me to be".
What i mean is how long we gonna keep doin this huh!? I mean its like we fight then we make up. What the fuck Natalia? I mean if something is bothering you just come right out and say it!
"KISS MY ASS"!
(She walks away from me) Alright fine, be that way then.

Dream #2 She got herself a shotgun.




Me and Natalia are driving down a highway in a marron coloured corvette. And that song shotgun is playing on the radio. She has a new shotgun she named it lola. She is dancing nodding her head to the music in her dark shades, and tapping the steering wheel.
"I love this song". Always puts me in the mood to go shoot some shit up!
Lmao. Whats with you and your love for guns Natalia hm? I always wondered that.
"What can i say? Some girls love sugar and spice and everything nice, uh uh, not this girl."
She likes a feel of the cold steel gripped between her palms, and the smell of gun powder always gets me wet".
I see. (my mind drifts a bit here) We pull up to a apartment complex.

So this is the place?
"Mmhm. You got your pistol"?
Yea. You got lola?
"Oh yea, lets go take em out".

The mansion.

Its evening time, and the location seems to be somewhere by Miami somewhere. We walk up to this big mansion, and walk to the side of the house. Ducked down low, we creep thru the back of this mansion. We go seperate ways, and peek thru windows. There are a few men in suits joking in the house about something. I tap on the glass 4 times and duck, then run around the side of this mansion. A guy runs out to check to see whats going on. I notice Natalia creeps up behind the man and cracks his neck. (My memory gets foggy here) and the dream fades.

Dream #3 trying to find Sinoblak again.

I did a wild at 5:30 am. Im now in my current home looking in the mirror. I reach in my pocket to grab my hawk coin totem. I rub it, I build my awareness with it. Where am i right now? What did i just do a hour ago? I was asleep a hour ago. I GOT TO FIND SINOBLAK!!!
I dive thru the mirror. I end up at some empty apartment. Was Sino here? I look around the apartment trying to find clues. I pick up books, and pieces of paper with notes written on them. I grow a bit impatient and set out to look for her. I exit the apartment, im not in America anymore, this place feels different yet somehow familar.

I walk slowly down this empty street late at night. I notice a stray german sherpard wandering the streets as well. I whistle to him he walks up to me. Hey there boy, can you help me find a friend? I go back to the aparatment to find a bunch of cars there blocking the entrance. There are men standing around talking about something. I am now spotted by two of the men. "Hey you"! What the hell do you think your doing here!

Not feeling like fighting or do i? hehehe The men run up to me, one the men swings at me i duck and jab at him in the face. Not wanting to use any special ability here, as i wanted to increase the intensity of the dream more. Another guy runs up to me and i counter his punches and crack his arm and headbutt him in the face. After they are laid out, I say now gotta finish finding Sinoblak. I walk thru doors opening doors searching for her. I look thru stores, food places, i go thru malls searching for her even calling for her.

Finally i fall backwards and have a false awakening.

Dream #4 Reading thru my files and records.

Im in my 2nd home in my living room on the couch looking thru my files and records searching for something.
(my doorbell rings) I go answer the door its a Asian dude asking me something about helping him find his sister cause she may be in danger. I tell him hang on give me a min.
I put my files up in my room and arm myself with a pistol and head out the door.

Dream #5 Not in my house.

Me and this one black dude was talking about whos better on the court. Im playing him in basketball and just remember yelling out something like. "Yea thats what im talking about"! Not in my house! And i wake up.

Final dream Time is running out.

Running thru this house shooting at these men chasing me in suits. Im evading their bullets, and exit thru doors. I stare at my watch using my mental strength to slow down time. I dive thru this nearby mirror and up in a huge house. I hear a piano being played. I walk over to see this little girl playing this piano. She has very fair complexion, looks like she is 8 or 9 and has dark black hair and blue eyes. I ask her how did she learn to play piano.

"Oh my friend taught me".
Wow, she must be really good then. Listen can you help me find a friend? I show her a pic of Sinoblak?
"Mmm i think shes out right now but she should be back soon". Have a seat.
I sit on the couch listening to this child prodigy playing the piano. That music is so calm i say. I fall asleep.

False awakening.

Im in my bed and look around everything looks normal and feels normal but is it?
I reach underneath m,y pillow to grab my totem and start reality checking.
I knew it..SINO IM COMING!!! I dive thru the mirror and end up at some casino.
I look around trying to search for Sinoblak. I walk around glancing at poker tables, slot machines, all while rubbing my hawk coin totem. I see a woman waiting by a bar, she looks like Sinoblak. I see her brunette hair as she flicks it drinking her drink, she is wearing a bergund dress and looks very elegant this evening. I walk over to her, I hear music in the distance, NO, NO, NO!!!! Not my beethoven alarm! The dream fades and i wake up.

Notes: Im making real progress here. I can do a hell of a lot better then this though. I will find her! Im overall slightly dissapointed with myself, for my lack of focus in this dream. Clearly i have gotten thrown off quite a few times here. Well, tonight is another night so we see how it goes again.

I slept for maybe about two or three hours? And the entire time, I kept waking up. I was being "possessed" by something in my dream as I was trying to dream? And I was letting it possess me so I was helping out with a spell. But I kept saying the wrong spell, waking up, and restarting. I woke up probably around 20-40 times. I think the spell was to actually keep me dreaming, rather than letting me be possessed. But they could be interpreted as the same thing. That's all. Oh, and I started taking new uh... supplements and if I have weird dreams again tonight then it's probably because of them.

Night of the 17th:
Fragment 1 - Me and hubs are at the dollar store for some reason. I deiced to buy a few platters and something else. When the lady rings me up it come to 1.24. I guess the lady asumes i dont have any change and thinks i am going to give her 2.00 but i tell her i have the .24. I end up giving her .25 and telling her to keep the penny. She looks as me funny and i tell her to giving it to someone who neds it next or to throw it on the ground and make it a luucky penny for someone else. When i get to the car i see a bag of stuff hubs bought. He tells me it is presents for my bday.

Dream 1 - I am walking around a house at night with some girl. She has a camra which is also a xray type of thing letting us see through the walls. Every thing about this dream feels like a nighmare but it is not too scarry for me. We use the camra to look into the house we are by and see a pool of blood with a trail going into one of the other rooms. I tell her that is enough and not to follow it. We walk around the house when the feeling something is after us hits. If we do not get under cover we are going to be attacked. We try to get into the house but it is locked.

As we are banging on the door trying to get it to open a midget comes running around the cornr of the house screaming in terror about something. I tell him we are scared as well but if we stick together we will be fine. At first i tell them we need to find somewhere to hide, but there is nowhere to do it. So i then deiced to use the house as a kind of wall and put the midget in the corrner of the house followed by the girl then me first so i can fight off what ever is coming. After about a minuet waiting in fear i deiced this might not be a good idea after all and tell them to follow me. We run towards some other housed that i can now see. When we get to the house it is now daylight and the ameatit threat of what ever is after us is gone. I ask the people of the house if we can stay there and hid out with them, but they say they have too many other children to proect. I decied since it is day light to run since i see a forest and mountains in the background. A woman warns me to stay away from the freeway otherwise the beast will bpick up our scent and be one us quick. With that in mind we start running again.

About a mile down the road i stop and say screw this part of the dream and turn to the two dc i have in tow and ask them if they want to go flying. They say yes so i put the girl on my back and hold onto the midget. We all tak off into the air. Once above the clouds i am starting to get board with the dream and deiced to try to full fill my secend step task and fly into outer space, but i do not brake orbit before the dream fades and i wake.

Night of the 18:
Dream - I am trying to remember the fragment before this dream, so the dream starts off showing me hubs, but all the people are asian looking (we are not in rl) i make my way into some bathroom. While looking into the mirror i see a girls face behind me, but when i turn noone is there. I start to get mad then get pissed saying i know you are there and just because you refuse to show your self i will not be afraid of you. This time i turn around and the girl is there. She says something about needed help because some beast or something is after her. I grab her and run out of the bathroom. When i get to what i am guessing is the living room i try to get the dcs there to help me protect this girl. They just all sit/stand around looking at me like i am crazy. I give up and go outside. When i get out side this bid green lizard like thing attacks us (no not godzilla, more like a moss covered camono dragon ) I disspach tfhe monster with no problem. Now the people in the house and other out and about run up to me and say the beast i killed was a guardian or something and the girl is the evil on and the only way to kill her is to use the guardians blood since it is like acid. Do i pool up some of the blood and put the girl into it which is now like a small doll.

I don't know what happened before I became lucid. I'm in an airport shopping center. I look around for DCs in the area to interact with. I find speaking and interacting with them to be the most interesting part of lucid dreams. There is a man walking in front of me. I ask him for his name. I don't remember his response but I know it was completely unintelligent jargon....So I look around some more and find a young guy looking through a shelf of DVDs. He has a baseball cap on and long blonde hair tied up in a ponytail in the back. He's wearing a dark gray shirt and I notice his left arm has tattoos running down it in a sleeve. He tells me his name is David Pendragon. His last name I'm a little unsure of. "Pendragon" is what it sounds like though....or Bandwagon..something like that. He is unusually attractive and I tell him that. I also let him know that his looks would probably intimidate me in real life. The dream stability is horrible - continually fading in and out. We pass a speaker display with colorful strobe lights placed decoratively around. It's playing music with heavy bass and I can distinctly feel the vibrations from it. Everything become crystal clear for a brief second before the dream ends.

I had several dreams last night. I went to bed right around 11:45 PM after completing an assignment for history class and woke up several times, only to fall right back asleep.

Ashur - Spartacus

I was Ashur from Spartacus and I was convicted of a crime. I got into a car with someone and they drove me to a jail house. After we arrived, my perspective switched to third-person and I watched as Ashur got out of the passenger side of the car (which was oddly on the left side in this dream). There was a guy standing by the entrance and he said "I'm sorry, my friend. But this is a jail for criminals." Ashur responded with something like "I understand. However, rules are rules." Then my perspective switched back to Ashur's and I was now standing in a jail cell.

I was holding a piece of brown paper, rectangular in shape, which had statistics on it for the real me. It was clear and easy to read. It had info on my real age, date of birth, height, weight, and some other info I don't remember.

Black-Out

Back to sleep. I dreamt I was in a large room in a building with other people. I opened the window and flew out of it. I flew to the roof of another building and looked around. Then I flew down and landed on the ground. There were buildings all around me. There was a room close to me that I knew belonged to me. I went inside of it to check it out. It looked like a dorm room, lol... It's like I can't have a decent dream without it involving a school or a dorm room. This room had a bed, shelves, and electronics such as a flat screen TV, DVD player, etc. And there were at least two digital cameras in there.

Then I went back outside and saw people walking around. I ran into a girl I knew in this dream but I don't remember her name. Then I looked up at the sky and saw extremely large holographic images of people and they were doing something. I was so shocked, I ran into my room, scrambled to find both digital cameras, ran back outside, and tossed one to this girl who I guess was a friend of mine. Then we began recording the moving images in the sky.

Then, all of a sudden, the lights went out. It was pitch black! The moment everything went dark, this girl who I thought was my friend grabbed my right arm and kept trying to pull me towards her. Even though I could barely see her, it was as if she became a totally different person. I kept telling her to let me go because I wanted to keep filming this extraordinary event.

Walking

Back to sleep. I'm walking down a hallway and I realize that I am dreaming after taking three steps--I become lucid. But I feel all dizzy and tired so I said "Whatever. It doesn't matter" and kept on walking. There were other people walking down this hallway as well. This dream didn't last five minutes.

"Oh, H-Hello."

Back to sleep. I came out of a building and noticed that there was a long line of people waiting to enter the door I just came out of. I have no idea what I was doing in there but I came out feeling pretty good and full of energy. As I walked out, I noticed that a pretty girl with dirty blonde hair (shoulder length) and freckles was about to enter the door. To be more specific, I think at least two people entered that door immediately as I was coming out but I only remember seeing this girl in great detail.

As I walked by her, I whistled at her and slapped her on the ass with my left hand and kept on walking. She stopped and calmly turned around to see who did it. I stopped and turned to face her. I was expecting her to let me have it but instead, she timidly said "oh, h-hello" with a blank facial expression. I was shocked at her response and she did it in such a cute manner, I think I fell heads over heels for her, lol.

When she said "oh," it was more like she meant "oh, I didn't know it was you." I felt like an important figure, not like a cop, but more like a judge or a mayor of a city. It was a funny sensation. Then she turned around and walked into the building. All of the other people who were waiting behind her paid us no mind and just waited quietly until she went inside.

Right after she walked inside, I said "wait!" because I wanted to ask her if she had a boyfriend, lol!

And there's my two cents.

I didn't nap yesterday, and I took Benedryl before bed to ensure I slept. I also tried a couple of new things. I told myself several times during the day, "I am the dreamer, I have control of my dreams." as DreamProfesser had suggested. I also added a new line to my "nightly plan" that I'm working on. The first line read "I will be lucid tonight. When I am lucid I will..." and then went on to my plans to try to meet up with K this time and ask him some of the questions I've been wanting to ask. It all sort of worked, I was lucid twice! But, they were the short early dreams that never last more than a moment anyways. By the time the longer dreams came around, I was already exhausted from being lucid during the early ones, and I had no success, lol.

Dream One: I'm floating in the air above some Victorian style houses. It's night time, and snowing. I am repeating to myself, "I am the dreamer, I have control of my dreams. I will be lucid tonight." then I realize, wait a minute... is this a dream?! And it was I have enough time to right myself as I was floating on my back, and look around to really admire the scenery. I notice the houses have elongated windows that are glowing yellow, but the light is steady like a light bulb not flickering like a candle which is what I'd have expected in a Victorian house. Then I wake up because my daughter's having a nightmare and crying out in her sleep.

Dream Two (Fragment): I'm not sure about much with this one. all I can remember of it was stopping in the dream and saying, "This is a dream!" then I woke up instantly. First time getting lucid has actually woken me up, lol. I was so sleepy I rolled over to try and DEILD and ended up forgetting pretty much everything about the dream :/ lol

Dream Three: This one makes absolutely no sense, even to me and I dreamed it! It starts out I'm getting out of a broken down suv, I'm in a snowy area. There are zombies coming up this snowy hill, and I panic because my ride is broken. Then I turn to my right and see a giant door in the mountain, like Moria(?) in Lord of the Rings. There's a woman signaling me to come inside and hurry, before the zombies can get me! I make it inside. I find out this room is some sort of zombie survival test. We have to do something to prepare ourselves to move onto the next level. I don't remember what we do, but I remember this room looks like a living room. The zombies are busting down the door, so we move on to the next level. The next level looks like a kitchen! I'm about to close the door between levels when the "zombies" break through and they're not zombies at all! They're little kids, like preschool/kindergarten sized kids. I decide we can't run from them, we have to take care of them. The girl tells me that I can't take care of them, it's a test. I have to act like they're zombies, and ignore them while we fortify ourselves. I ignore her and try to tell the kids to do something. It soon becomes apparent that the kids are little hellions! They bite me and bad mouth me, and I finally give up. I move on to the next level shutting the door behind me. This kitchen level has candy sitting on the shelf, and I'm hungry, so I grab a piece. My brother is suddenly there, and he steals the bag of candy from me. That's cool, I got a piece so I don't need the whole bag. I ask him about his girl friend, and he tells me he doesn't know, he doesn't love her anymore. I'm in complete shock because they make such a great couple and I would love to have her as a sister, ha ha. Then I walk to the table and there's a baby basket on the table. The kind like they show moses floating down the river in on the history channel when they do those bible history shows. It's light brown, and lines with a white liner, but it's filled with blood! Gross! My brother morphs into his girlfriend (hows that not make me lucid? lol) and she/he sniffs the basket of blood and tell me to smell it! I'm like, "no thanks!" But it ends up getting bumped and some of the blood spills on the table and we have to clean it up. Then we notice there's a window between the kitchen level and living room level, and the "zombies" (kids) are crawling through it! We run to the next level. But instead of ending up in the next level, I'm in a commercial for some gold colored minivan. There are windows all around with leafy golden vines etched in them, and this gold minivan is sitting on one of those spinning car platforms. There's a beautiful middle aged woman talking about the car. She's down dark skin, and she's standing in front of this golden light that makes it look like she is glowing gold. The light makes her black hair look like it's made of gold on the tips. She looked like someone had softly dusted her outline with gold. I'm not sure how to describe how awesome she looked, just that I was standing there in a awe for a bit just admiring this effect the light was creating. Then this portly white man walks up with all this ugly gaudy jewelry and purple robes like he was some sort of rich guy. He starts saying he hates the mini van, but he wants this glass and the doors. He severely annoys me, so I leave and find myself in a cubicle sort of area. That's weird, and boring. I leave that room, and I'm back in the Zombie Kitchen. Or rather in a hallway that didn't exist before, looking INTO the kitchen. There's also a small room to the side where the "zombie" children are in a class now, learning like normal preschool/kindergarteners would be. The teachers holding up a book, it all looks so normal now. Then everything flashes, and it's like I'm watching tv. The screen zooms out, and there are creepily life like Skylanders on top of a water fall with some humans. The narrator is saying they're the last hope against the zombie invasion. Then the dream cuts to a parking lot. My mom, Grandma, son and I are all about to get in the car.. only instead of a car it's my mom's tiny truck. There's only 3 seats. Someone has to ride in the back, and it's going to be me because Grandma's too old to climb up there, my son's too young, and my mom has to drive because I can't drive a stick shift. I'm scared mom will wreck and I'll get crushed. I wake up, thankfully, lol.

Dream Four: This one still has me feeling a creeper, lol. It starts off with my mom and grandma and I looking for a hotel. We end up going on a toll road, but the toll booths are closed. I feel like I'm going to get a ticket because I didn't stop, but the booths were closed so I don't. We find the hotel, and it's green, but there is a prettier rainbow colored one I'd almost rather go to, but our reservations are for the green one. Inside the hotel though, it's my husband, my two kids and me, as well as some other random little boy. Then my uncle and his wife and their two sons are there too. I'm watching the little kids play in the hall way, but then they start jumping and running and screaming and I tell them that if they don't quiet down they will kick us out of the hotel. The kids whine about this, but stop. Then I get a phone call in our room. I answer it, and it's the front desk man telling me that he has to report on all guests who stay in his hotel. I'm like, "Ok? it's just us and our kids, and we've done nothing wrong?" Then he tells me that one of my four kids is wanted by the government and they are on their way to pick him up because of his report. I hang up and I'm flipping out, apparently I don't realize I only have 2 kids, ha ha. It turns out, my fourth kid is a teenager?! and we've taken him in because he had no where else to go, but he's wanted on hacking charges. I walk out into the hallway where my husband is talking to a man in military uniform and our "son" is standing there with him. I ask the military man if we can't just pay for the damages he caused, and the military man says no, that he will have to work off his debt. I try pulling the, "but he's just a minor!" card, but then the kid tells me he turned 18 the month before. I'm mad, and I stomp my foot and tell the man he is not taking one of my kids away! Then I hug my "son" and tell him I am so, so, so sorry that we choose this hotel to stay at. That if I had known this would happen I would have never come there. He seems really apathetic, and it feels pretty awkward because my "son" is taller than me, so I just walk out of the hall and leave it to my husband to handle. I'm a mess, blubbering like a baby, lol. I walk outside, but feel like I'm doing no good and restless. I walk back inside and fuss at the desk man (who funny enough looks like George Lopez). "My son's getting taken away because of you! By a man in the military no less! What if they send him to war? What if he dies because you turned him in?! I am never staying in your crappy hotel again!" I walk back inside, and my aunt is talking loudly to someone about how she "didn't know we'd taken in a criminal, and if she had she'd have never come on this trip with us! How dangerous! Her kids could have been killed!" I snap and tell her that he isn't a murdered, he just got mixed up in some hacking crap a few years back and he didn't realize he was doing any wrong until the wrong was done. Then I equate it to downloading illegally or something. Then a cousin from a different side of the family starts telling me that no one is buying my sad mother act, that everyone knows I'm secretly in love with that guy and that's the reason we took him in and acted like he was our kid. Then I'm still bawling and go outside again, but this time so does our "son". I try to get my space by walking away behind the building but he follows me. He tells me quickly behind the building that he knows I didn't mean to get him caught and that everything's going to be ok, to just not worry, but I'm really upset. I realize I'm mostly feeling guilty because if I had chosen to stay at the rainbow hotel this would have never happened. I walk back around to the front of the building remembering what my cousin had just accused me of, and not wanting to be in a position that might make that look true. My husband pulls up in a white car and tells us we need to go home to get the kids things so he can take them with him to the military. Then my husband starts telling me in the car that the military has found several of the "kids" teeth, and they were dated and he's a lot older than he's trying to play off. He says the kid is almost 26, making him older than me, and that they've also found some of his bones as well as bones of missing persons (basically, dream logic translated this to implying that when he'd break a bone or something he'd cut someone else's limb off and replaces his own with it because it'd heal faster that way?) I tell my husband there's no way he'd do that, he may have gotten mixed in with a bad crowd, but he wasn't a bad person. My husband accuses me of being too gullible. I turn and look back at the "son" who tells me not to worry about it, everything will work out but doesn't say anything about those accusations. We get out of the car, and we're at a house with a pool! We have to climb through the pool to get into the house though (weird! lol) and I turn to the guy who's been deceiving us this whole time, and I tell him to make sure he survives, and not to forget he was supposed to go to college, get a good job, and build a mcmansion (yes, I called it McMansion, lmao) for the whole family to live in. He smiles and says Yeah. Then my real kids wake me up! I look back at the dream and feel pretty gross, lol.

So, last night I had the most successful number of dream recalls in a long time.
Dream 1
This dream began in a cafe that I frequent quite regulary at University. Instead of looking out onto University buildings, it had an aspect that encompassed a futuristic city skyline. (I have had to research blade runner). It was my birthday but I vaugley sensed that something was wrong. I began to cry, upon which I ran into the stairwell followed by my friends. Suddenly I noticed that the lobby was huge, and a cross between a skyscraper lobby and the architecture of Epcot!!?! My mother was seen walking with someone from school, who I assumed had become her new daughter and then cried some more.Dream 2
The second dream of last night was even more bizarre. I arrived back at what looked like my High school campus on a coach, presumably having been on a trip. The theatre or opera springs to mind but goodness knows why. I left my luggage on the coach and went to my University room (which looked nothing like it actually does). Alarm bells rang briefly as I wondered why it looked so strange-coming lucidity that I easily quashed when I believed that the student knocking at my door would take me back to the coach to get my luggage. I was anxious that the luggage would get driven off with. But the unknown third year boy reassured me that he ran the trip so would help get my luggage back if we missed the coach.Again, the architecture was somewhat futuristic but there was a lot of dark wood.Dream 3
The third dream was more complex. I had accompanied a couple that I know well to London. ( I have been there recently) We booked into a travelodge, the female of the couple wouldnt let me take the single bed and made me sleep in the double with her boyfriend, watching us sleep all night. All perfectly innocent, just odd! We made it to the cafe bar downstairs in the hotel lobby where a number of people,including some I had just seen from afar in a pub the night before the dream, were having a meal. We played with Guinea Pigs, me all the time worrying that we would get thrown out for having animals. We did eventually, by a woman with dark,curly hair and apron as we broke a glass by accident. The couple and I mad eour way back upstairs in a lift and the by stairs. They ran ahead whilst I tripped and fell up the stairs throwing my luggage (which was the same as the previous dream and appeared from nowhere) everywhere. I feel asleep on the stairs, dreamed in the sleep in a hazy brown fog and woke up. I proceeded to climb the stairs to look for our room 4004. The male in the couple was some way ahead but he did not stop to get me. The corridors were oak pannelled and there were suddenly almost disney-like guides everywhere,wearing deer stalkers. I walked under the space-shuttle simulator..(I saw pictures of Discovery before bed.) and suddenly felt concious. I felt I should ask for help, and this ginger haired man appeared, fairly tall,wearing a red,tour guiding t-shirt. He showed me the way to go and led me down a corridor. The corridor became sandy, I could feel the sand beneath my feet. Looking to my right, I noticed that I was on Blackpool beach. I questioned how this could be. The tour guide decided to confide in me that his father was an alcoholic and taht he was here to help me. I questioned him, I asked, 'Why is the path suddenly a beach?We were in a corridor?' (Or words to that effect) His reply was quite inspirational: 'Just because you are on a path, it does not mean it is the right one'. We walked further down the beach, past a lot of people all in pairs, he pointed a large, white and lime green 50's style condo/house/mansion. I got images of the interior and then I woke up.

So what have I learnt? My dreams last night were obviously characterised by anxiety but I put this down to the fact that I have a bad cold and Uni stress. What is interesting to me is A) the number of men in my dream. B) The lucidity I gained a little after falling asleep in a dream and the ginger haired man. That part of my dream was particulary lucid.

Key dream themes: Anxiety,luggage ( lost,unpacked and left),Oak.

I would appreciate your thoughts,have you ever questioned a dream character?Did you believe them to be guides or just a standard part of a dream?

I'm a wizard. There's this girl and her older sister with me that I'm hanging out with. I'm in my old house (Ledbetter,) looking through my irl sister's old closet. I find things like old gameboy games that don't exist and stuff. The girl and her sister are arguing about magic and the little sister is complaining about how much of a bitch her older sister is, with her "gaming job" and stuff.

The older sister and I could do/understand magic, but not the little sister, so we just kinda ignored her. We were looking for something specific, I think, and watching out for something. We decide to finally go to sleep and we lay down. It's very cramped. I close my eyes and hear the younger sister say "It's funny that we're going to sleep in a normal person way, but the dirt is changing into ____"

I realize we must be WILDing, so I try to transition to the meadow. I wake up.

I'm not sure if this counts as lucid. I realized I was transitioning to a dream, but I'm not sure if I realized I was in one at the time. I only realized that as I was in the middle of the transition. and decided to just try to transition all the way to the meadow instead of just back into the old dream (for some reason... -sigh-)

So, a little background. I was attempting to have a Lucid Dream to meet Tom Selleck, inspired by the Task of The Month thread. I would normally attempt to see Isaac Asimov (I'm a big fan) but as he is dead and I only ever saw a few pictures of him, I decided that Tom Selleck would fit as I spent a lot of time as a child watching Magnum P.I. and I still think he's awesome!


The first thing I remember is being in my home, though it was a little different as there were shelves all over the place, and they were filled with items like suntan lotion, beach balls, flip-flops, and the whole place smelled like coconut oil and rubber. I said to myself, "I must be in Hawaii!" and as I said this I turned around to find myself facing the beach. I was close to the waterline, perhaps ten feet from where the small waves were gently rolling up on the sand. Around me were a number of people, all busy moving umbrellas and lighting equipment and some cases that contained equipment of some kind.

Immediately I thought , "Ooh! I'm going to meet Tom Selleck! I wonder where he is?" I saw a tiki bar to my left and I headed in that direction, knowing it might be a good place to find him. On the way there I realized I was very thirsty, and I couldn't wait to get to the bar. A large equipment case was near me, placed halfway in the water, and there was a Ginger Ale on top. I saw a guy who I thought I recognized nearby and I asked him, "Do you mind if I have some of your drink?" He turned around and I was disappointed to find that it was Stephen Spielberg. He looked bothered that I had asked to have some of his drink but he just said, "Yeah, go ahead."

I didn't hesitate to pop the tab on the can and drank a third of the beverage in no time. I placed it back down and said, "Here. I only drank a third of it." He grumbled but didn't say anything about it. He instead approached me directly and said, "We need you on set right over there." He pointed to a nearby spot in the water where the crew was setting up props, and I realized I was an actress. I looked down and decided that I wanted to be wearing a grass skirt, and by the time I saw my lower half the skirt was there.

Despite Stephen Spielberg's lackluster attitude I was excited, and I asked, "Is Tom Selleck around here? I really want to meet him." The director replied, "He's not here today." and walked off, leaving me standing in the waves. I was sad, and my disappointment ended any chance of lucidity I had.

I walked back to the hotel and went to my room, a large space with big windows and white curtains and sheets. The bed was large and soft, and I sat down on it. The walls were brown, and normally I wouldn't pick that color for walls but it looked nice. TV didn't interest me so I went downstairs to the bar. I was going to order a drink but I realized I needed to use the bathroom and went off to the side of the bar and back into the stockroom, where a toilet was located and surrounded by clutter. I had to pull it out from the clutter to even be able to sit on it.

Apparently tropical drinks weren't agreeing with me that day and I had a fairly soft *poop* that I wanted to get rid of before anyone saw me. I thought I was reaching for the toilet paper but instead I was using paper towels, which were effective in cleaning my butt yet also effective at spreading the mess. I got some on my shirt at one point and I clickly removed that.

When I finally cleaned myself up I went back out to the bar and PhilosopherStoned was tending bar. He had a large scar on his head and was wiping down glasses with a rag. He just gave me a smug look and I walked on past.

I stepped from the bar to an office building, or school (not sure which) that was located in the city of Westlake Hills, on the west side of Austin. The office(?) was managed by a large black woman in a blue uniform, and she was chewing gum.

And then my dream ended.

I was in an arcade somewhere and there was a DDR game, but you could use these buttons instead. I just played the (3 second long) demo and watched some kids play a horseracing game, and walked out, appearing on a deck. There was a microphone hanging from the ceiling. I was in an argument with a guy over something that happened in the arcade, but that made me do a RC and become lucid. I said "no, you're the one who's wrong... because I'm lucid and you're part of my dream. Good bye!" I leapt up and started to fly, but my vision got blurry and I woke up.

I don't think I've ever felt the transition from a lucid to waking up before. I usually lose lucidity before that happens.
