lucid

I've been slacking off on my lucid dreaming lately, so to get back into the swing of things I've decided to actually start using this dream journal instead of letting it sit around collecting metaphorical dust.

My last two lucid dreams:

10/15/11
[Missing the Bus]
Upon coming out of the school and realizing that I have missed the bus, I become lucid and decide to take a little walk down Main Street to see what might come up. It is a beautiful, overcast, rainy afternoon with no one in sight-- just as I like it. I talk to myself to say lucid while I make note of the similarities and differences of Dream Main Street from Real Main Street. Enjoying the peaceful walk, I am a bit dismayed when fear seeps through me from the very air itself and I notice I creepy girl standing ahead of me in the empty street. She is chanting in a sing-song voice, "Twilight! Sunshine! Twilight! Sunshine!" She approaches me and stops a few inches away, still chanting. Clearly, she's psychotic.

I ignore the irrational fear and decide to have a bit of fun. "Hey, take it easy," I tell her soothingly, pulling her into an embrace. "It'll be alright." I see sanity return to her eyes,and I can't help myself: I press a gentle kiss to her lips. When she kisses me back, I push her against the wall of the store we're standing near, and we begin making out. After a few moments, however, she stops me. Apparently I have done something to anger her in the past, and she isn't yet ready to forgive me. In a rage, she nearly forces me to wake up.

*darkness, but I manage to bring the dream back*

It is sunny now, somewhat to my dismay, but despite the sudden scene change I am still lucid. Now I am walking with two companions along a grassy path, somewhere out in the country. The girl is still prevalent in my thoughts... I MUST find her again! Maybe if I hadn't been mooning over some non-existant person, I might have noticed the earth giant before he noticed us.

His huge leafy head slowly rises from the hill where he was sleeping, his mean eyes narrowed right at us. Oh, crap. "Run!" I shout, doing my best not to trip over the unstable ground.

Knowing I can't outrun him, I hide in some dense undergrowth and then sprint into the main forest as soon as the coast is clear.

After I take interest in some strange little paths that stretch through the woods, a narrator begins saying some stuff that I'm not really paying attention to. Once more, I'm having fun just exploring. Then I catch the narrator saying something along the lines of, "But little did she know, she was about to encounter the dreaded Mask People." Wait, what? Mask people? That's when I see them: little hairy creatures dressed in brown robes and creepy masks, each carrying a staff with some kind of animal skull on it. I freeze in my tracks, doing my best not to make any noise, because I have an innate understanding that the Mask People are blind.

I decide to mess with them. I let out a sudden bloodcurding scream, and a few of them are so startled that they fall to their butts on the forest floor. I laugh hysterically at my little prank, until they begin to get aggressive. "Wait, I'm not going to hurt you," I say. "I'm a friend." Somehow appeased, their leader gives me a skull like the ones on their staves. I follow them and eventually meet back up with my companions.

It isn't long before I find that girl again, in some dream city, but she keeps running away from me. As I am searching for her again, I pass by a huge church that has a big electronic sign in which my name is scrolling by in big yellow letters. Maybe she's in there. I open the door and immediately see that this is no ordinary church. A service is taking place in which everyone is wearing some kind of disturbing mask-- not like the mask people, whose masks looked like tikis, but intricate masqurade masks resembling demons and evil creatures. I notice that the preacher, who is not wearing a mask, closely resembles Pan from Pan's Labyrinth.

I'm intrigued, but I ignore all of this when I see the girl in a long procession on the staircase, headed to one of the lower rooms. I leap over the banister and stop her, holding on to her arm. Some of her sanity has left again; she is going off on a crazy rant that I am not really listening to because her eyes are changing color like a kaleidoscope. "Such beautiful eyes..." I think to myself.

*there is a lapse in time, but somewhere along the line the girl has officially started trying to kill me*

I run with my companions up the hill to some beautiful houses. But horror fills us--- we've arrived at HER house. Great.

I confront her again, but suddenly realize that my friends have guns and are going to shoot her. "NOOO!" I yell and pounce on her, knocking us both to the ground. I end up taking all the bullets, which wakes me up.

11/18/11
[Alice in Terrorland]
I am with my mom and my brother to begin with, on a search for Alice Liddell, who is in some sort of trouble. We travel down a staircase into the basement of an old church where we come across a very formidable looking door. My mom tries to open it. "It's locked," she tells me.

Suddenly I "remember" that I have had this dream before. (It was a false memory; I've definitely never dreamed anything like this). "This is the Door Master's door. You need his key to open it. It should be in your pocket," I inform her. Just as she finds the key, the Door Master appears behind us. He is basically a giant key with eyes, arms and legs, who is very alarmed when he sees what we are about to do. "HURRY UP AND OPEN IT," I yell as the Door Master sprints toward us. We go through the door and slam it behind us so he can't follow.

Now we are in a long hallway with hundreds of different doors and passageways. I have been in this sort of place before; if we don't get proper directions, we'll be lost in here for ages. Shaking off my feelings of foreboding, I walk confidently onward, somehow aware of the general direction we should be traveling. After a while, I spot a familiar door. "What ever you do," I warn my companions (who are no longer my mom and brother; they are now an old friend of mine and a cat), "do NOT go through that door. I made that mistake last time." (Yet another false memory.)

All of a sudden, the Door Master is sprinting in front of us, going off to alert someone of our presence. "Wait!" I shout and begin to chase after him. "We need you to help us find Alice!!!" I follow him for a while, but then I spot Alice just as she darts through one of the doors. A strange woman stops us as we approach.

"You'll need to memorize this rhyme before you go any further," she tells us. "It will save your life." She then proceeds to recite a very ominous poem, which I have unfortunately forgotten. Something about "A terrible place called Wonderland." My friend memorizes it quickly, so we enter the house of Alice Liddell.

Her parents are standing in the kitchen when we walk in. "She's in her bedroom," Mrs. Liddell informs us, pointing to the far end of the house. As we head that way, I notice Alice's older sister. She is a tall, beautiful young woman with pale skin and reddish-blond hair, wearing an old-fashioned dress. She smiles at me when we pass.

Just when we reach Alice's bedroom, I "remember" that her sister is insane. Whirling around, I manage to throw up my arm right as she stabs a knife at me. The blade sinks painfully into my arm. Suddenly in a sort of berserker mode, I grab the knife and psychotically stab it into her stomach again and again and again until she falls to the floor, dead. Then, I plunge the knife into her back "for good measure," before taking it and following my friends into the bedroom.

Alice, an 8 or 9 year old girl with black hair and sullen looking eyes, is sitting on her bed, waiting for us. "You're not my friends anymore," she says in the creepy, monotonous voice of someone who is possessed. "You're not my friend and you're not my friend and you're not my friend," she points at each of us as she speaks. That creature has taken her soul, I realize, preparing for the worst. "But you know who IS my friend? HE is!!!!" The closet door bursts open------------

Just as my alarm goes off and wakes me up.

I had just gone back to sleep after waking up to early in the morning, so I guess that helped. Suddenly, I realize that I’m dreaming and I push my finger throw my palm without meeting any resistance.
I remember thinking “cool, now I can do whatever I want” and I start to fly. It was not as I’d imagined it to be. I could feel the wind blowing in my face and all that. I didn’t think it would be so realistic.

After a while I got tired of flying and decided to try something else. Unfortunately I got so stressed trying to come up with something else to do that I woke up. The dream lasted about ten minutes.

Not the most epic dream, but I’m glad to have experienced my first lucid. Hopefully I won’t wake up so rapidly next time.

Pop Quiz
I am in my car and driving down the street that leads to my house. The street has recently been widened, but in the dream it was just a 2 lane road curving through the desert. I come to a place on the road where they are doing some road construction. It looks more like road destruction. The road is really torn up. I follow the detour for a ways and I see the entire road has been torn out, the rest of it is made up of a series of dirt tracks and detours. In the middle of all of these dirt tracks I find the place I am heading. It's a school. I go inside and sit at a desk. It turns out there is a test today that I forgot to study for. Damn… what am I going to do now? It turns out we can use resources, like books and stuff. I have my laptop. I open the computer, which is where my notes are. I am taking the test with the aid of my laptop when it starts raining… inside the classroom! The electronics in the room are all sparking and smoking. I hide my laptop under the desk where it won't get wet. But damn… this means I can't use the computer for the test… I'll flunk for sure. I continue trying to write on wet paper.

Bandits in the Trees
I am in a game of Oblivion, exploring through a forest with thick foliage. I am in sneak mode, making sure no one can see me. I know no one can see me, it's as if I can see the eye icon in my mind… and I see that it is faint, indicating that I am not being seen by anyone. I sneak through the foliage until I spot a couple of bandits in a clearing beside a tent. They are sorting through a couple bags of what I know are stolen goods. I take aim with my bow and an arrow, and I get sneak attack bonus damage on the first of the bandits. Of course now they both attack me. One of them attacks with a bow and arrow, the other comes at me with a sword. I use my shield to block an arrow coming my way and attack the bandit coming at me with a sword. After a short fight I win at which point I throw a few fireballs at the archer, who is still attacking me. Soon he is toast. I collect the loot off of the fallen bandits and search the camp for more loot. I find some gold and other assorted loot. I then continue sneaking through the trees until I find a ladder going up a large tree very close by. I start climbing the ladder into the upper branches of the tree. Someone is calling to me from down below. I look down, and there is a man down there calling to me that I am crazy to be climbing this tree. He says I am a sitting duck up there if one of the bandits spots me. I ignore the warning and continue. I swing along horizontal ladder rungs that are running under one of the horizontal branches, then climb more when that branch turns up. I enter a tree house at the top of that branch, and it is quite a tree house. I start searching through the place, and taking whatever I decide is useful or of value. It is the bandit's hideout, after all, it's ok to be stealing from bandits.

WILD again!

I lift my dream body up, roll down from my bed. I turn into Re-l from Ergo Proxy, but from then I dont remember what I (did) at all....I try to find Vincent.(to exlpore the world of Ergo Proxy)

I am at the backyard checking from my mom(?) if I turned into Re-l. I say

"hey mom did I transform?"
"no.."
I do my tranformstion jutsu again.
"oh! you have transformed!"
"have I? do you see the blue eye shadow around my eyes? "
"yea you have something blue"

I can feel I'm wearing Re-l's white coat and gloves.
my voice was still mine and do voice transformation jutsu. lol my voice is Re-l's/

"Vincent! Vincent! Vincent!"

I go to the parking lot and find Re-l's car. it looks similar to one in Ergo Proxy;it has wheels...and it looks a lot like 1900s British car. it was black. anyway I get in and imagine Iggy coming in. He comes in and we go to find Vincent.

Idk why but I am out of car. I recall the changing scene in dream method in DV; falling back, so I try it, but it doesnt work then I recall other method which is back-flip but this doesnt work either. so I imagine a portal over the field. I find some kind of water? filled puddles. I jump into the puddle and I sink. then I float up. I'm all wet. even my hair. but with my lucid power, I dry it.

I dont know what happens here.

I go to a top of building and I find Vincent and Pino. they were having dinner. I remember Pino's face but I did not see Vince's face. I sit together and laugh for no reason ....I think the whole situation is kinda funny. lol then I wake up

I probably could remember my whole dream, but I'm too tired to try.

On the other hand, it was really fucked up and I woke up gasping (you could say..)

I was being chased by a creature that looked very much like "Bigfoot". We were in a jungle, and I knew there were other bigfoots around too. As I was running, I noticed that I could push the trees down as I ran. This helped me get where(ever) I was going to a lot faster. I had just lost one bigfoot and then one appeared not far in front of me. I tried to hide but he saw me and started running at me.

Instantly, I was fed up and out of options. I knew I was dreaming at this point and I didn't think about what I should do. Instead, my fear and anger took over and started growling. I raised my arms above my head and I grew about triple the size of the beastly foot man. Suddenly I was on top of him, choking him, hold him down.

The next part is disturbing, so I'm going to stop there. Really don't want to think about it anymore.

Side notes: I think I've been more aware throughout my day. I really feel a change in the energy of my dreams. I just feel like I'm becoming more in tune to my dreams, because sometimes (most recently) I feel like I'm playing a role. It's kind of like I know that I'm dreaming, but I'm playing along with the script. I can't say that I've been "lucid" though. I was lucid in the last dream for a moment to know that I could control it, but then I began playing along again.

The things I've been doing differently are listening to binaural beats (gamma and beta) for a while during the day, and my choline intake has increased.

So, I'm very excited for a break from school and looking forward to my dreams over the next month.

It's about time I started a dream journal on here, my LDing has fascinated me since joining DV, I didn't know how cool it could be.. ok so last night, and this wasn't the worlds greatest dream, like I say, i want to start a DJ for my own reading and records as well as sharing them with you. I was in an airport line, it was very light and futuristic, I don't know why it was futuristic it just felt that way, it was strange. I got up to the front desk and the guy was talking to me, I thought .. .wait a minute . .this is a dream so I pinch my nose and I was right. I was asking the guy what he was doing here and he just spoke giberish to me, it was funny, anyway next to me this arogant dude pushed to the front and started yelling, the guy he just nudged out of the way toppled to the ground, so me knowing it is all a dream walked up to this guy and said something like, hey watch this, I whipped my arm the the right as if i was shooting something out if it, that was the intention lol, nothing happened and he got mad at me, I did it a second time and the huge windows smashed, I then picked him up like he was nothing and (this is funny too) bent him in two and rammed his head up his arse .. lol .. the head up the arse wasn't intended on my part and I lost lucidity somewhere after that. I found it funny. I had another non LD dream which was strange, I was stood high up a huge hill, looking down on the town below me, I was just thinking to myself, this is so beautiful, I felt at peace, everything was clean, it felt like spring or summer, it wasn't cold, but the most amazing part was the sky, it was just mind blowing how amazing it looked, but all I could think about was, "take it all in, this will spark a lucid dream sometime" .. you can imagine how silly I felt when I woke up .. .thanks for reading.

I am in a car and I immediately know that I have been kidnapped. We go inside of a Corporate building and it is very futuristic.I am sent upstairs to where a man and a woman are talking. They tell me to follow them into a room but I sneak away. I then wake up in my bed, but I still realize that I'm dreaming so I start to run something behind me. I then start shouting clarity x 1000 and everything gets more sharp. I am then transported back into the building. I am behind a locker and I'm listening to the boss of the company talking to what appears to be a janitor but he is whispering so I know something bigger is going on. They start heading my way and I tell myself to become invisible. I can still see me, but I trusted that I was invisible. The boss looks my way then turn back, so I'm hit with relief then he turns my way again and yells at someone to stop me.I curse and start running which usually gets me flying. As I get up into the air the guard grabs my leg and throws me back. I wake up.

I had no access to the internet for about three weeks, but I did record quite a few dreams. However, my handwriting isn't exactly what you'd call 'legible' when I write as soon as I wake up, and some things I wrote are just notes that make no sense to me now. So, here it is, word for word from what I have written down, and I'll add anything else I remember in parenthases.

~Voldmort says, "Don't fall asleep or I kill Ginny."

~I show someone my (drum? trom...bone? I can't read it) because I can't for the life of me remember who Bob Marley is.

~The Confederates come back and want to use our house to rest. (I remember being disappointed that Jasper Hale wasn't there, and briefly thinking that there was an amendment that said soilders couldn't stay in our house.)

~I get a pug, and have a German Shepard.

~In church, we get an assignment to be a computer. I work with J.R.

~Supposed to be getting married... can't do it.

~In the trashy back-alley part of a city I find my Chinese friend yay.

~What a dashing young lad: Mama's friend in a hooded cloak.

~Teacher says something about taking Jasper and Emmett home. We have to butter a biscuit to leave; even though mine isn't in complete sentences I can go.

~Someone does ballet in the middle of the road.

~The bus driver says it sounds like a ninja food fight. (???)

And then two dreams that I wrote in more detail: ~Playing a Tarzan game. Aliens come into it eventually, and that morphs it into a whole new game. When I stop playing, I'm in an unfamiliar house. Out one door, there are a bunch of dogs, so I go out to pet them. They start trying to come into the house. I shut the door and see that a waddly little bulldog got in, so I decide to take him to the pet store. Don't remember how I got there, but somewhere along the line I became lucid. The dog wanted to eat a candle so I started picking ones off a shelf and seeing if he liked them. As I held out a brown one swirled with red and green (cinnamon candy, I think it was called), my mom walked up and asked what I was doing. (just realized I changed tenses there... oh well.)
"It's a dream, so he's eating candles," I told her.
"What?"
"This is a dream."
She starts freaking out. "Wha... Thi... Are you serious!?"
"Yeah. Calm down. Control your breathing and touch the stuff on the shelves."
She makes an effort to stop hyperventilating and runs her hand across a shelf filled with bottles of shampoo. "It feels so real," she says in amazement, taking one bottle and holding to her ear like a phone. A loud voice starts coming from it.
I smile. Suddenly a bell rings at the counter so I go up to see what the person wants. He's a vampire. I can't remember what he asked for, but regardless, he just yanked me over the counter and bit my neck. I only felt little pinpricks of pain, and when he let me go I just lost lucidity and followed him out of the store. () I ended up walking down and road and seeing kids play under a little bridge.

~In school, a zombie apocalypse is in progress. I'm roaming around with a group of random people. The hallways are spattered with blood, and every so often a few zombies will come around a corner. The people I'm with bash them with blunt objects. As we pass the doors leading to the second floor, a white and tan Siberian Husky rockets past us and skids to a stop in front of the stairs, sniffs the air, and barks loudly. A man in a trenchcoat and fedora walks up and pats the dog on the head.
"Dog knows where it's safe," he says to us, already heading up the stairs. We follow them to a small, dark, round room that's empty apart from a few music stands and an armchair. Several minutes pass peacefully, then I realize that no zombie situation can ever be peaceful for long. Just as I'm about to suggest moving to a different area, the husky starts barking. Everyone in the room rushes to look down the stairs, where a large group of zombies is slowly making its way up to us. We all grab music stands and prepare to fight.
I wake up, a little relieved to not have to see how that ends.

Over black, I started to see a shape take form, it looked like a chromosome, changing from pink, to blue, to green and back to pink, aswell as shaking and shivering across my eyelids. I reached out with my dream arm (note, It was all dark besides the chromosome) and grabbed onto it. It disappeared.

Immediately after, I felt all my limbs start to flail, as if I was falling down an infinitely dark, bottomless cavern. Tumbling down the rabbit hole. I started thinking "Okay, the dream is about to start, I have to remember to focus. Im dreaming... Im dreaming.."

I was suddenly inside an unfamiliar kitchen, talking to two men, unsure who they were. I realised I was dreaming and told myself to stabilise the dream via activating senses. I knelt down and started to touch the lino floor. I remember saying "Wow. It feels so real!" There was some water on the floor too, I rubbed that in so it spread across the floor. Amazing, haha.

The dream clarity increased 10-fold. Feeling stable enough, I stood up and began to walk out.

Two women from my work came through the door at the end of the kitchen. I said "For fucksakes. Its a weekend, this is my dream and I dont want you here!" and walked past them. I turned around straight away, they had disappeared (Hahahah) Upon opening the door, I was on a beach at some beachside restaurant. There were about 7-8 people outside, sitting at tables. The sky was slightly grey and the ocean somewhat choppy and violent. It was here that I decided to try flying.

I stepped up on a table and told myself I was going to fly. I jumped. I noticed that I was the air for a ever-so-slightly longer time than I normally would have been, other than that, I just landed on the ground.

Being still very lucid at this point, I reassured myself - "No. This is a dream. MY dream. Anything is possible."
I relaxed and stared at the distant mountain, put my hands at my side and started to focus on flying.

Here, I noticed all the people around me had stopped talking and were all staring at me, silently.

I relaxed even further, realised I had now obtained all the power and began to rise. The more I rose, the faster I got. Until within about 10 seconds, I was in the upper atmosphere, with ever increasing height and speed. I was laughing with joy at this point. I looked forwards, the Moon, growing closer and closer. I noticed I couldnt control my speed, so I put my fist out, flew straight into the Moon, blowing it up.

Ecstatic, I lost control and the dream faded.

SO damn excited to do this again tomorrow morning!

I realise now I have to keep reminding myself I am dreaming. And also to engage my senses much more, so I can appreciate the dream environment more. (I think everything seemed grey and boring because I was more focused on touch?)

maybe the nighttime cold medicine put me to sleep very deeply. I could do WILD in first dream!! I've never done this..


--------------------WILD in the first dream---------------------

I lift my dream body up and crawl on the floor. when I look up, I am in the room where I had lived before I moved.
With the feeling of spooky atmosphere in the room(the scene was dark-blue), I am afraid of a ghost that's gonna come out at anytime...
But I know this is a dream so I just ignored and jump down the stairs then open the door, but I'm still scared.
I fly away over the town. It is covered with thick sheet of snow. the sky is all white-out, slightly snowing. I can't even see the background; it's smoggy.

I unconsciously think of meeting O'Donnell from Yellowcard rock band. I land in front of a house and see a man coming out.
I recognized him as O'Donnell. I don't see his face exactly, but I grasp his shoulders saying
"Are you O'Donnell? hey! you're dreaming right now!"
and suddenly ignoring test comes into my head. so I turn back and walk slowly, really trying to ignore him.
but I can still hear his footsteps. then I try to ignore it too, but I still feel that he's there. I get shocked with amusement.
(now that I think of it O'Donnell may have been an entity.)
"OH MY GOD!!! we are having shared dream??! O'Donnell you are real!!!"

I don't recall at this moment. We walk together in freezing weather to somewhere, looking for other members, and I am holding some kind of paper pockets.
Inside the pockets, there are sheets with amount of dollar written on it. near me Ryan Key says to me, or I recognize it as 'drugs for having deep sleep'.
I remember the nighttime medicine I took last night and I think (thought) that I consumed drugs. I was kinda scary but here I am, in dream.
the costs were over thousands of dollar.

I remember exactly that this dream was the most vivid dream I ever had. I could feel the cold weather, thick clothes I'm wearing, footsteps, just everything.

I recognize that Yellowcard members are shared dream members, and Ryan Key and I are conducting this experiment.

So Key, O'Donnell, and I are in an auditorium. The auditorium looks a lot like my high school's...
Then we find Sean Mackin in the seats. We greet him and I sit beside him. I say to him "Sean, you're dreaming right now! do RC! this is a dream!"
There is a middle-aged woman doing some kind of lecture on the stage. She didnt have face; or I dont remember her face ...I'm sure that it isn't human's face, but she is human.

We are very frustrated that we have to get out of here, but the woman wants to keep us in the auditorium. My heart beat is getting fast. I am a bit surprised that I can even feel hearbeat in dream. It was so real.
Key and I had a chance to stand out to claim that we are shared dream members, but the woman keep denying it. I think Key finally say to her that we have to get out, and she is convinced.

We finally stand up and get ready to get out of the auditorium. When I get to the exit door, the woman is standing there. I am kinda mad to her because she tried to lock us up here. so I say to her
"You don't even know what dream is."
then she says,
"Of course I know. It's the Internet you see over there."
She points to the outside where there's some kind of group of people having fun in the snow.
I think, dafuq, woman? sheesh, you're stupid. I ignore and walk outside with members.
(of course I didnt feel anything weird when she said that. but when I woke up after, it was very weird that she can answer like that. Dream is the Internet... )

I feel the freezing wind slapping on my face. I walk over to the group of people, and at this exact moment, I wake up.


---------

I couldnt go back to sleep for 10 minutes. I checked time; it was exactly 3 am.

11/30/2011
I was hanging out with John and A. We left our backpacks on the ground by the car, and we left the girl/princess in the car. We climb up this stair thing. At the top we're joking and talking. Then we realize someone might steal our stuff. We rush back down. Our backpacks are still there, with most of our stuff still in them (mine had stuff in different places than I left it), but the princess is gone. We are worried that she will be raped.

I try to make a potion to find the princess. I mix nerds (the candy), chocolate, and maybe something else in water. I got the chocolate from A, because I only have a whopper, which hasn't got a lot of chocolate in it. A gave me two mint-covered chocolate balls. I put one of each in the mix and stir, waiting for it to dissolve. It's taking its time. I split one of the chocolate candies in half so it'll melt faster. I don't think it's working quite right. I show it to the potions master and ask him about it. He says the chocolate I used wasn't pure enough. He helps me get something working.

I'm at the place the princess was taken. I pretend to be her... owner? to get into where she is. I know the real 'owner' will come along soon, though. I tell the princess to make me a sandwich. I put mustard on it myself. When the real guy comes along, I'm prepared. He's dressed in red, and his hair and beard are dark. We exchange a few words, then I throw the sandwich at him. It explodes, due the explosive runes I wrote on it with the mustard. I know I'm dreaming, so I can use interesting powers. I turn into a dragon (sort of) and bite his head off.

I'm back to my normal self. For some reason, I'm sticking to the wall in a corner, sort of spider-man style and closer to the ceiling than the floor. I think I tried to turn myself into the wall, to hide, when I was scared of that guy, but I ended up sticking to the wall instead.

Some guys (three of them) walk through a door, into this room. I think they are dungeons & dragons nerds. There are polyhedral dice on the floor. I use telekinesis to make the dice come to my hand, one at a time, throwing them at the skinny blond guy as I get them. One time, instead of using telekinesis, I moved my hand into a position so that it looked like I was holding the far away die because of an optical illusion, and then willed the die to be close rather than far.

I tell the blond guy that I am dreaming. I tell him that he is dreaming, too, but that's about when I wake up, so I don't get to see how he reacts.

11/28/2011
I'm at a university, attending a lecture. My parents come. I visit home. I'm packing, almost ready to leave, but my hair is messy. It's 5 pm. We have to leave now, no time for anything else. I throw on a hat.

I'm at a university lecture. Someone (the lecturer?) is wanted. He's an old friend of the family. This makes things awkward.

I realize I'm dreaming, but it's only a few seconds before I wake up. I don't RC, though, so who knows if I actually woke up.

11/27/2011
I decided to make a WILD attempt after waking up. I kept drifting in and out of sleep paralysis and wakefulness. It was very frustrating. I used the nose plug RC as well as looking at surroundings. The one time the RC indicated dreaming, it didn't last long, and I couldn't do much of anything. I saw a woman's head and almost found a hat. By the time I finally fell asleep for more than a minute or two, I'd lost awareness.

I'm at Taco Bell. The employee is giving me crap about having spilled ketchup all over the table last time I was there. He tells me to do some cleaning now. I grudgingly comply. I'm very frustrated when I drop half my burrito. He's going to yell at me if I don't clean it up.

I'm with a group of people, mostly females, as well as a guy I went to school with and was sometimes friends with named Kenny. For some reason, I have a date with Kenny, and I have to wear a dress. Ewww on both counts. We're all riding in a van to the place where I'll have the date. I'm wearing the stupid dress. The seating is weird. The girls have some sort or experiment of project they're working on. We arrive. I'm supposed to dance? Grr...

Now we're all in a video game, fighting people with guns. I lead the retreat to a more defensible position. It's one of those old 2D sidescroller type games, and I can actually dodge the bullets/laser beams.

At first I was dreaming about something else before I became lucid. It was something about being a soldier like in call of duty. But then I had a false awakening. I 'woke' up in my room. It was nighttime. I sorta remembered the previous events of the last dream within the dream. When I 'woke up' I did not get out of bed immediately. I opened my eyes and I saw my alarm clock and dresser was on the other side of my room. The alarm clock was on top of my dresser. Of course since it was so dark I only saw a shadow of the dresser but still. At first I thought somebody moved my alarm clock but then I realized I was dreaming "wait this isn't right my alarm clock was next to my bed!" That was when I became lucid. I did the nose plug RC and sure enough it confirmed my suspicions. My dream body felt a little vibrations for a moment but then it stopped. It felt weird to breath through my nose even when it was closed. I opened my door into the hallway. My cousins were waiting right outside my door. (I am also living with my 3 cousins atm as well and the house was an almost perfect replica of my real life one). Cousin 1 was 8 yrs old cousin 2 was 5 and cousin 3 was 29.(Don't want to put their names on the internet so just remember them as cousin 1,2 ,3).
We went downstairs. As we went downstairs I asked cousin 1 if she would take me to my subconsciousness. She says "No" I persisted no further. We are downstairs now and cousin 3 opens the front door for some reason. I then decide to try and summon one of my real life friends. I go outside the front door. I yell my friends name and turn around. He wasn't behind me so I gave up on that. I then went back inside and I see a strange DC I have never met before. (Since the first 3 characters in my dreams I know from real life I thought this was very strange). This mysterious dream character was sitting on the couch. Cousin 1 was also sitting on the couch. I asked the strange DC who she was. She did not say a word. I then ignore her. Cousin 1 was playing on her Nintendo ds. Heres the thing though. Her DS in real life is pink however in the dream it was black. I realized this and pointed it out. She says "Thank you" in such a exasperated voice. As if she wanted that color in the first place. The mysterious DC looked like she was in her mid 30s. She had long curly blond hair. I then decide to ask something like "Has anyone thought about your future" I don't remember exactly what they said. I then said "You guys are parts of my imagination" they didn't take me seriously and they laughed it off. After I told cousin 1 about how her ds is supposed to be pink I seemed to have convinced her that she really was a DC. She started to worry what would happen if I "leave" I then started to explain to her about what would happen. I don't remember what I said but as I was explaining this to her I suddenly found myself in waking life back in my normal bed.

I was lucid upon entering this dream. I was floating--clarity was low. I thought I would have trouble going above a certain height as I always do, so I tried to just float up and not think about it too much. I was floating up into a starry sky.

I floated up for a little bit, but then I remembered a response to someones comment regarding semi-lucidity. I had advised him/her that I thought he would have success in going through a wall or ceiling while lucid, and that he should try it. I immediately put my face through a wall in my dream. Half my face went through a wall and I saw a guy with long, braided hair with a gun. He was holding up a guy at a convenience store. In my dream he was a terrorist.

I was then in an old condo where I used to live with my mother. I now wasn't sure if I was dreaming or not. Instead of doing a reality check because I never think to do one, I slowly tried to put my head through a wall. I didn't want to do it fast in case I was awake, lest it hurt.

The funny thing is, I wasn't successful in putting my head through the wall. Then I thought it was weird because I did believe I was dreaming.

I was very tired, and I believe the best lucids come when you go to sleep on time. That is true for me in any case.

I was with a friend B.L. We were on a train track. He was basically lying down face first, but not relaxing. He had a rock in his hand, and the rock was on one of the rails. It powered him like a train. He slid along the rail holding onto the rock.

I was holding on to him, but I was falling off. I tried to get him to go some way different as I was about to fall off, but he wouldn't. I got upset and pushed myself off this non-existent train car.

He then threw the rock at me in disgust and walked away. I took the rock and threw it right behind him so it would bounce and hit him, which it did, sticking to his butt.

My friend got mad. I explained I only threw it so it would barely hit him and let him know he didn't have to throw the rock at me.

Then I saw some railroad workers. I didn't really want them to see me. I also saw some trains go by. The first locomotive was normal, then I saw some plastic ones. They had advertising on them like a car wrap.

I was annoyed at how "they" are making everything so cheap today including locomotives.
