lucid

11-10-11 Was a bit hyped, so did my best to cool down a bit while going to sleep, which meant not a lot of focus on goals. After the first couple of dreams I decided to go free running, though it didn't happen.

“Designing Games – City in the skies”

I am setting up a computer game, and I somehow have a sunny background on a road called Tendrupvej in the town I grew up in. The background to the game is blue for now, and the intention is for my friends to join up with in this game. The primary focus I have for now though is to turn it into 3D and make it into full screen.

The game is a simple mix between shooting above blocks away while avoiding the shots fired against you. The main difference to classical “shooting blocks away above you while the blocks are shooting at you” games is that the shots are fired from the side and the game itself is progressing to the right in a linear fashion. I keep resetting it to get my friends to join and get it all rolling.

Skip?

I am getting a mental image of a futuristic city in the light of sunset with quite a fair amount of clods in the background. Furthermore the buildings themselves are emitting quite the amount of light. I get the feeling that there are three main roads leading in and out of the city from and to the centre, in the shape of peace sign.



Pretty much like this, though without the river and the mentioned roads leading into the centre where the tall building stands and most of the building emiting more light. Otherwise pretty much exactly like this the natural light looking very much like this picture.

This image is presented just after having discussed setting up the game on the point of what to allow people access to and what not.

“A perceptual moment”

(Short dream with a lot of detail, not that interesting)

I am lying in my bed and there is a television in the upper left corner of my visual field. In this television there is a presenter wearing a tie. I pull the television towards the center of my vision wanting it to encompass my entire perceptual field. However the picture disappears and then something strange happens.

I get this really warm feeling in my entire body accompanied by some slight pressure. The feeling is really nice and I am thinking to myself that it is probably some effects of sleep paralysis. This feeling keeps intensifying up until the point when I feel like I can leave. So I sit up while noticing that I am leaving my physical body behind.

I am thinking to myself that this reminds me more of an AP (Though admittedly I have no experiential basis for thinking this) than a WILD and I have more confidence in my abilities than normal and I start crawling my way out of my body. To my surprise I am able to fully leave my body behind.

“Holy shit! I haven't ever done this!” I think to myself, at least not while being conscious about it being a dream. My dream body is really heavy and I have to sort of drag myself across the floor. I am in my room (obviously) and it is really dark. I notice that where the TV normally is there is a smoke alarm. Furthermore there is quite the amount of blue light intermingling with the natural darkness of the dream. Everything looks a bit off due to this.

I get over to my coffee table and it looks like it does in waking life, with loads of papers scattered on the surface of it. I try and use the table to stand, but as I am placing my hand on the table in order to use it as a support to get up, the weight of my hand makes the table warp downwards, inwards on itself. Meaning that my hand is causing the table to sort of stretch downwards in the centre warping all the papers and stuff lying there as well. As if the stuff is all of a sudden made of rubbery materials.

I manage to get up and I look out of the window. Down on the right hand side I can see a starry sky joining the horizon. The funny thing is that I am actually looking downwards on this and also the sky (or the other way around) is superimposed on a pattern. Basically think the windows logo but with triangles all pointing towards the centre and a bit more vibrant. Although the stars are out the lighting is fairly bright outside.

There is a dark curtain on the window with square holes in it. Like a mosquito net, though the holes are a bit bigger. I am trying to get out the window, but as I am making my way towards the window it seems like there is an infinity between myself and the curtain so it takes quite a lot longer than anticipated to get to the window. I find that a tad strange, but when I start thinking more about it I arrive at the window and climb through the glass and curtain, quite confident I can do this based on the fact that I have just crawled out of my own body and jump out.

I jump down and notice that I am not really flying and gravity seems strong enough. I notice that there is a building to my right and there is a roof over my head supported by some thin white columns, yet I am outside.

There is grass under my feet and the scenario is fairly different to how I normally perceive the outside of my flat in dreams starting inside. I look down on the grass and out over the lawn to see the flowers. There are quite a few and I notice that they have spherical heads in white and purple, though I also notice that the detail of these flowers are not good. Though upon closer inspection the level of detail increase.

The grass on the other hand is fairly rich in detail. I can see dirt between the straws indicating that it has been recently sewn. I kneel down and start running my arms through the grass and as I am doing this the density increase. The grass feels soft and chilly under my skin, but no way unpleasant, in fact it feels like it is somewhat sentient and reciprocating my gentle strokes (AWSOMENESS!).

I now look up to my right looking for the flowers, which again have taken on additional detail. Furthermore I can see the wind is making the flowerbed form into small waves, like ripples, and as I am seeing this I feel the wind on my skin (by the way think I am naked as I jump out, but decide not to care about it). The wind feels like a chill breeze on a warm day that could never be anything but pleasant.

Notes: The dream was in fact fairly short, but I was somehow more present at every moment, meaning the detail and perceptions I encouraged makes the dream look like one of my longer ones.

“Brief beach adventure”

I am having quite a lot of mentations involving Carsten J. Some in particular strike out to me where also Ronnie is included.

We are on holiday and we are comparing beaches.

I am at this one beach and the water is looking rather milky, though it is very warm. The air is stupidly hot like 70 degrees Celsius, you wouldn't be able to be there and I somehow notice this, though I don't “notice” it. Around in the edges of the water there are brown volcanic stones, or cliff formations might be more accurate due to their size.

I am jumping around making an effort not to land on one of these stones as I understand them to be immensely hot and will burn me quite severely should I touch them.

Awake Non-lucid Lucid

I'm sitting on my bed in the dark. I get a text and pull out two phones, both the same. I look at them, why do I have two phones? I don't own two phones, and they're exactly the same. I push my finger through my palm.

I'm dreaming! It's a nice surprise. I get up, plugging my nose and breathing, because I like the weird feeling. I look about my room and then go through my door. It's dark, but I can clearly see an elephant in the hallway. It's a small elephant, to fit into my hallway, but it slowly moves into my bathroom.

Curious, I follow it. It stands in my bathroom, flicking its trunk about. I gaze at it for a while and try to get it to make noises, but it just kind of whines.

I remember that I've to try and find either nito89 (Ben) or Arch. I decide to try and find Ben because he'll be easier to visualise and find. I stand outside the door to my brothers room, picturing him in my head. I try and make him as real as possible, because I don't want him to be a DC.

I open the door, into a rather square, creamy room. The walls are cream and slightly dirty, and there's a cream carpet. To the side, there's a little bit of furniture, a sofa or something, but the rest of the room is unfurnished.

Ben's sitting on the floor, little packets and spliffs around him. He looks up at me and giggles, clearly high. I'm starting to lose lucidity, but I stand wondering what to do with him. I say something to him, but he looks as though he can't comprehend what I'm saying. A girl walks in and he becomes instantly interested in her, offering her some weed.


And then I lost lucidity and can't recall the rest.

Lucid
Non-Lucid

I had been awake most of the night, and it was around 5 in the morning or something. I tried to WILD. Im not sure whether my lucid dream was a WILD or a DILD. I think it was a WBTB DILD. Anyway....
I was in my room. At least, thats what i though. My eyes were stuck closed, and because i couldnt see, i RCd. I could breathe through my nose. Suprised, i checked again. Yes. I was lucid. Next next second or two, millions of colors from the scene that were once unsaturated in the dark came alive, and my "Dream Resolution" skyrocketed. I still could barely open my eyes, so i spent the next minute stabilizing the dream and increasing my vision.
As i got out of bed, i realized i was not in my room at all. Im not sure where i was, it was a very nice room. I saw a window, and I jumped though it, and it disappeared out of sight as i did. I landed on a patch of gravel. I felt it, but it wasnt painful. I was outside at a park near my old house. I felt the grass. I could feel the grass blades run between my fingers.
"This is cool" I said as I walked around, taking everything in.
I jumped out, and landed a hundred feet away, instinctively did a PK roll. Realizing i didnt need to, i took off in a great sprint. Then i jumped again, floating slowly back down near the street. I walked down, and summoned my friend to appear around the next corner. Then i did it again, but this time, the dream began to fade, and i woke up.

Was in a swimming pool waiting for Leo to show up. There was a girl swimming on the other side. I thought she liked me. I called Leo to ask when he was coming and he said he couldn't come. I said ok and began swimming. I could year the girls thoughts and it sounded like she liked me. I read a journal that was her mind. I talked to her and it turned out she like the guy swimming next to me. They both looked at me and I said this reminded me of a lucid dream. They looked confused. I told then a lucid is where you know your dreaming and its just as real as what's around us. They sad that was impossible. I told them to go to dreamviews.com to learn more. The dream turned into another dream that I don't remember.

Laying in bed I was preparing to enter a dream. I forgot my real body and just laid there. The ceiling was really close to my face. Were my eyes half open??? This must be some intense HI. I got to a point where I could go past the wall and see the side of it it was really cool. I kept examining the wall. It looked like a wall that I would see if I was on a strong dose of acid. It would turn rainbow colors and start spinning slowly. I heard music in the background. I started spinning. I found myself in a dream but unaware that I was dreaming. I was with kara in the yoga studio asking teachers on how to be a yoga instructed. They didn't know. We went to the counter and rain was back! We asked her when sue could reacts dns she said right away. Kara and I signed up for 3:30 class and I blacked out. I was walking with Lindsey in my old neighborhood. My dad kept calling me and I picked it up. I couldn't hear what he was saying so i hung up. We went to her apartment where I met her roommate. Lindsey's boyfriend came in and I said hello. I woke

Vesterguard's Dreams

non-lucid - Notes - lucid

10-10-11 Intentions were simple meeting up with people from the IOSDP (secretly targeting Katsuno, though he isn't the target till next Saturday =P).

“You a Wizard or a Witch boy!?”

I am put in a situation where I have to choose my professional progression path in the field of magic. There are two ways to go. The first is the wizard way, which involves evocation magic and direct energy channelling. The other is the Witch way, which relies more on potions, rituals and props though it is equally as powerful.

I am with someone that may be my parents and they may have been ghosts. I remember the male, which I believe to be my dad looking at me looking like a zombie with bright red eyes. I am walking amongst some streets that have a winter/autumn feel to them, it is quite cold. I leap up onto one of the buildings, defying gravity a bit using wizardry powers.

I get a simultaneous narration on what it will be like if I choose one profession or the other. It goes even further to explain that even beneath the two main categories there are further specialisation. One of these paths is that you have to work under conditions quite harsh and this is examplified by me receiving a strong cold wind in my face and I understand this to be the standard working condition of this particular path.

My POV shifts so I am not myself any more, rather I am now my dad or the zombie/ghost version of my dad at least. He/I sit down and I basically tell him that the windy conditions aren't the right choice and that we should be patient and wait for the right path.

There is more to this dream before this part though I don't remember much of it.

Skip

The dream shifts to something else, though thematically there is still something about ghosts. In particular there is a guy who is creating a water slide attraction. He is a ghost himself and the nature of the water ride is that he takes people for a drive in a train underwater.

People who are in the train have their eyse at the surface level of the water so they can see for themselves what it is like to drive through water (!?). The dream might have awoken me slightly or at least increased my cortical tone, because I keep having these sensations of having various plants pulled over my eyes inside my eyelids, which is scary and very uncomfortable experience. (one of my biggest fears is having my eyes slashed by reeds).

There are two girls sitting down on a bench outside the lake where the water attraction is. They are eating sausages with a lot of ketchup and mustard while I am preparing an explanation on the water attraction. I go on to explain that the attraction has existed for about 3 years and it was tough in the beginning. The way it works has changed over time to the way it is now where the driver is underwater driving the train between two layers of ice.

“Balloon/Free(Jet?) flight instructor stylez!!”

I am on a patch of land that looks quite fertile and green. It is surrounded on both sides by water. it is daytime.

I am a flight instructor having radio contact with a number of people who are trying to learn either balloon or free(Jet?) flying or a combination of the two.

Out in the field there is a crucial point where you have to have taken off before. Otherwise you will get stuck in two trees with branches crossing each other over the flight path we have to take. There is another instructor on my team who complain about this, seeing as there isn't a lot of runway to take off from before reaching this spot.

I rationalise that by throwing people out in the deep end they will become better pilots later on, though he doesn't really agree with this. I back this up with a particular psychological theory. He says a word, which I hear as Lenin, which I explain that he is not entirely incorrect about this as I am referring to Russian psychologists. He then starts laughing and explains that this wasn't the word he said.

“Kaomea, Katsuno and an Airport”

I am walking through a street with a lot of people with various kinds of shops. Food, clothing and souvenir shops. The general feel is that the shops are put up for some kind of event and aren't there normally.

Skip

I am walking through an airport terminal with Pil. There is something weird about the situation so I shout out for him to wait for me while I do a reality check. I look at my hand and I don't notice anything particularly different, I pull my thumb into the palm of my hand while I am looking at the back to see if I can make an additional thumb grow.

I can't do this and I shout out “Bah I can't even make an additional thumb grow”, but I still keep looking at my hand and all of a sudden I see that half of it disappears so I only have 3 fingers left.. like a turtle hand.

I spend quite a lot of time trying to calm myself down as I have a suspicion that a lot of my lucids end because of over excitement. So I am standing there looking at the surroundings. The terminal has quite a modern feel to it. The floors and general look of the place is rather metallic though the designers have also found some room for plants. It is fairly bright outside.

I then start working on my goals, but obviously my memory is not playing ball with my intentions. I start walking into the terminal while I shout out “Pil!” intending on finding Pil. Pil comes around the corner, but then I remember that he wasn't the guy I was supposed to meat up with, so I shout out for “Kaomea” and she also appears from around a corner. She looks younger and paler than her picture (and compared to how she has looked before) and seem to have quite a naïve expression on her face. I don't really have anything to say to her. She is all dressed in black.

Then I recall that it was Katsuno who signed up to be the mark for dream invasion, though I am cognizant of the fact that it isn't until next weekend I still shout out “Katsuno”.

I start walking out and jump up towards a sign to see if I can fly a bit, which I am not that successful with, though I don't really care. I continue walking out and there are a lot of plants intertwined with the industrial metallic look of the airport terminal.

At this point I ask Kaomea if she is actually Kaomea or just another DC, and she confess to being a dream character. I think I stop her before she runs off because I need to see her eyes. I have a suspicion that they are yellow, which could indicate that it is Mitzu playing up and they are, but I don't continue the conversation, also she doesn't really feel like Mitzu. Then I might have punched her in the face down an escalator.

I then find Katsuno who is a fairly tall Caucasian male with black hair, not really short, but not long either though it isn't spiked. He is dressed in clothes that would indicate that he is German, a tracksuit maybe(?) (think I primarily infer this because I know him to be German, rather than an objective attribute of his clothes).

Katsuno is talking to someone at the same time as he is walking, maybe another couple of walking with him. I Say “Katsuno”, but instead of responding to me he just keeps on talking to these other people. I get slightly annoyed with this and decide to not waste further energy getting his attention, but then he actually grabs me around the shoulders. I say “I am Dennis, we are dreaming together, this is the goal we are trying to achieve” he replies “yeah I know, I can't believe how vivid this is!”.

I am then walking outside and inside the terminal towards the exit there are some shops with yellow umbrellas over them, I believe they are 'Tuborg' umbrellas but I don't stop to check for sure. I continue walking outside.

Once outside I start thinking about the TOTM and recall that it has something to do about trick or treating. I want to do this at a private door, but I can't seem to find any amongst all the shops. So I look down one way of the street and expect there to be a private door behind me when I turn around. It doesn't really work, though I get the feeling that I won't have to walk far to find one.

Then my memory plays a trick on me and I recall that I have to do something with a shoe. So I walk up to one of the people at the shops and ask her to remove her shoe. She is wearing white priatey clothes and I kneel down to remove her shoe. However I think it might be difficult to get it off, but I mentally remind myself of not acting stupid putting barriers up for myself. So I end up getting off her shoe, it is a white shoe, and I put it on the muddy ground and then the shoe turns into 2D and I wake up, under the commentary of a narrator.

“FA”

Unsure if I have a FA, but I recall attempting to WILD by making a dream manifest around me. I am not sure though if this memory is from waking or sleeping condition though I suspect this to precede the lucid from the airport.

First lucid! I rubbed my hands to stabilize it, and did some RC's, all of which worked. I had read Naiya's MILD guide before I went to bed and tried it. I realized I was lucid when I was on some street, and I couldn't remember how I got there (little red flag going up...) All of a sudden I remember the Task of the Month for October: Go trick or treating and shape-shift into a mythical Greek god. Well, I tried to shape-shift into Aphrodite, didn't work (Maybe later) but I went trick or treating at the nearest house. My grandfather, in his pajamas, opened the door and said "Come back tonight." (It was morning) I walk down the street and meet a girl, I can't remember what she looked like, but she said her name was Naiya. (After I woke up I laughed my head off) We walk down the street some more and the scene turned into a country road surrounded by harvested corn fields. I decide to try to fly. It wasn't nearly as hard as I thought! I ran and jumped, got stuck a few yards up, then "swam" through the air until I got good enough to Superman fly. It wasn't very fast or high, but it was awesome! Then I woke up a little, rolled over, and forced my way back into it. Bad idea. A tornado was coming right at me. I almost tried to wake myself up, but then I was lucid again and was like "what the heck???" So I put my hands out and stop the tornado (with some effort). After everyting is fine and dandy again, I wake up.

It was very cool, and I rubbed my hands together a lot. It was pretty long though, which made me happy It was funny because this "Naiya" was next to me the whole time. I'm thinking it was because that was the last person I read/thought about.

so i went to take a nap and there was my bro in the restarant kitche and he started pushing me so hard hard i was alreadyy LD BUT still i couldnt move just lauhg ;D



then next dreams were so krazy idk i was .. omg never mind ;D

Dream Fragment
The only thing I remember is a very brief moment of lucidity. I was just offshore, in what looked like the familiar Harbor-Town, which had begun showing up in my dreams, after I began searching for the Dream Academy. The water was about waist deep, and I was looking to get out of it. Instead of flying, I wanted to try something different, so I held out my hand, and visualized a grappling hook and line firing out of the top of my wrist, like Batman from Batman Beyond. It flew up to the rooftop of a nearby building, and pulled myself up and out of the lake. I felt more like I was floating than was swinging from the line, but I eventually kind of 'wafted' my way up to the rooftop.

That's the last thing I remember.

[MILD/WBTB]
[Woke up after 6 1/2 hours of sleep (8pm-2.30am, stayed up on PC about 20 min, went back to bed, thought about LDing, meteor shower and my upcoming class reunion, did some "Am I dreaming" and looking at my hand and saying my mantras. Fell asleep shortly after 4am). Woke up immediately after getting ½ way to LD at 4.45am].

Dream:
It's at night and I'm at my class reunion. I'm talking to my friends for a little while. Then I'm in adjacent room with big wall full of windows. Suddenly I see a huge bolide streaking through the skies from right to left. It's beautiful. I see some hills on the left and I know if I don't get higher, I will loose this meteorite behind the hill. Suddenly I feel as I was on a see-saw. I'm slowly lifting in the air without any effort and slowly coming back to ground. I do this couple of times. Then instead of coming back down, I keep going higher. Feels good but I'm surprised and I look up asking myself "wow, how high is this ceiling?". "I'm dreaming". My hand comes into view and looks almost normal, except mi middle finger is little longer than it should be. I realize that from this point it could go either way - turn lucid or continuing with regular dream. So I start willing my finger to stretch longer while repeating to myself "I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming." I'm still high all the way to the ceiling.
I get scared of the dark and wake myself up. Man, I wish I wasn't such a scaredy-cat.

These were all posted on my Livejournal, and I'm posting them in the reverse order than I had them in.

Origin of Stats

Which brings us to the dream about why Stats is called Stats now. Basically, I had this dream last night. Megan Merrill, of all people, was driving me around this new town (where all my OLD friends lived! how fun...) that had this great, enclosed stone architecture. There were coffee shops and used book stores and this fountain in the middle of town. It was pretty cold because we were in the mountains. I had started going to school there, so mom came up to visit. Guess who else went to school there! Stats, of course! Anyway, I went hiking with Stats and mom, and it was fun... then Stats and I went back down to class. My mom called me when we got there and said she was a little lost. I asked if Stats and I should help her, but she said she was fine, just that she'd be late for dinner or something. Anyway. So Stats and I talked about how ze was sick? Whatever it was, ze was having a hard time at school. I recommended ze go to the doctor, but Stats didn't want to miss school. I said ze could get medication and not miss school. Then ze did something adorable. Stats looked around the room and was like, "Hey, everybody? If you could miss a day of school with medication and a doctor's note, would you? Raise your hand if you'd still come to school." A few people did (Specs was in the back row and raised her hand) but when Stats readjusted her question to two days, no one did. Ze looked at me all proud. It was the cutest thing ever! It was like ze was trying to prove a point and had just cited zir sources. I even told zir how adorable it was. So... now I'm calling zir Stats.

Rodney Fragment

Last night, I dreamed that I was an assistant to Rodney McKay. I kept screwing up his drink orders and everything he wanted. I think that's typical. Rodney in the dream was just like Atlantis Rodney. I woke up grinning.

Ron Fragment

I dreamed I was in love with Ron Weasley. Weird, because I've liked Rupert since sixth grade, but never Ron. Anyway, he was tall and I was hugging onto him. I don't think he liked me back, and it broke my heart. There were aliens! (What a surprise.) There were to kinds of ships, the usual small rockets and some big black balloon looking things. I remember thinking the balloons must be "ours" for some reason. The dream was hard to follow even when I was asleep.

Movie Premiere

I dreamed that Slynk and I went to a movie premiere. We had played some part in the making of it. The theatre was this huge building, vertical. He, mom and I kept climbing all the way to the top. It was late. It might have been a showing at dawn or something. When were just about to the top of the building, Slynk sits at this patio table and starts texting. He tells me he's meeting this other girl here, and he's in love with her. I say, I guess that means we're through and he nodded. It was pretty depressing.

Office Drama - Partial Lucid!

Slynk, Sid and I all worked in the same building. It was big and covered in glass. All the outer walls were glass. It was very modern. I kept running around doing work. I'm not sure what my job was, but I worked with Sid a lot, and not with Slynk. Eventually, I told Sid off because I think he was hitting on me. Slynk showed up, and I went lucid for a minute. I looked down at my hands and did a reality check. I tried sticking my finger through my hand. I could tell I was waking up, so I didn't want to look too hard at my hands. I did another RC, this time holding my nose. I could breathe, so I had confirmation. I felt like I was waking up, and as I looked at my hands, the dream shifted. I lost lucidity. I was in Sid's office again. Now it was night. We had a conversation that I don't remember at all, but he started telling me he loved me. I said, "No. Slynk," like I was trying to turn him into Slynk. I kept saying it, and eventually Sid grabbed my arm. He pulled me for a while, really hard. It started to hurt! Then I woke up. My arm was around Slynk in bed, we'd fallen asleep that way, so that was why I felt like he was pulling my arm. It was a nice way to wake up!

Barack Obama super fragment?

Last night I dreamed of Barack Obama. We were in the past and he owned a railroad company.

There are more, but I'll post them separately since they're pretty epic.

non-lucid - Notes - lucid

Following dreams occured between 30th Sep - 05th of Oct. I have written up some of the recordings I had lying around. Amazing what this device can do for recall, I get taken back to the dreams while listening, though on the flip side it makes me lazy in writing them up and sharing them.

Date unknown:

“Freaking Lifts!!!... Where is the toilet?”

I am at a concert with Belá Fleck and the Flecktones and I leave this because I have to go to the toilet before heading back to bed? I am walking back into the concert hall and the encore has just finished and I am hoping that I can get out before all the people start leaving.

Everything goes wrong, the first toilet is taken so I go to take the lift to go upstairs, which I can't due to there being a girl in it who goes up. I end up taking the stairs. I come upstairs and press the lift button again and find out that the toilet is taken again so now I go back into the lift.

Here the girl apologise to me for leaving me downstairs before. I then take the lift down and realise I wasn't supposed to go down so I drive up again. I am starting to get angry at this point and I vent my frustration on the lift by punching the mirrored walls, which crack. I am a bit embarassed by this as well as not willing to pay for it so I quickly walk out when I get upstairs.

There is a staircase going up to the second floor and it is possible to see in between the steps of this staircase. I am trying to do some exercise by pulling myself up, but only with one arm which makes the endeavour difficult.

I am talking to Shang in my flat, she is talking about some Ida girl, which I believe to refer to Natasja of my study. The setting is rather dark lit by artificial lighting. Shang is questioning why Ida/Nat doesn't find any of the men that are really elegant guys boyfriend material.

Aurelie is in fact talking about Nat in an odd way. She describes her as sort of a puppet, meaning that all her emotional ties are with a guy back home far away from the current study environment she is in at the moment. I am disappointed in Aurelie that she doesn't consider me a valid boyfriend candidate for Nat.

Notes: Has been quite some time since I had this dream and there is some character confusion between Aurelie and Shang, though Shang definitely is the one I consider girlfriend material and is faffing around with the lights.

I then proceed to talk to Shang and tell her that it sounds pretty much like the situation she used to be in. Shang then goes on to explain that a friend of hers found something in the book (a diary of sorts?) and that she was afraid that it would be discovered and taken the wrong way.

At this point I stop to think that seeing as she no longer has a boyfriend it might be a good time to make a move. I am looking at her as she is trying to switch on the lights in the bathroom and the hallway in between. The lights doesn't seem to be working and she hasn't realised that I am standing there observing her, wearing a towel wrapped around my waist. I find her rather cute as she can't quite figure out what is going wrong.

Something about Shang's lenses and an inability to see.

I am on the internet looking at something that has the interface of the IOSDP forum threads, but it is actually a research project on photo recognition of the self, which reminds me that I want to do research myself.

“Mitzu, tell me how to do portals.. no.. not today.. okay then”

I am having a series of false awakenings somewhere in the region of 4-5. Teri McB came down to me and talked to me about Lucid Dreaming. She just had her second. Just after this I have a FA.

The reality check fails and I look at some plates standing around on the sofa and other where. I try and move them telekinetically and they sort of just slightly vibrate. I manage to get hold of a fork though that I pull towards me and throw it into a window, which creates a little dent and shard. I then go and punch the window, nothing happens the first time then on the second the window blows outwards.

There is a bit of wind and then I go and call Teri asking if she wants to come along and join in on this lucid. I go into the window and shout out “why is it so cold?” which makes the cold disappear.

I jump out of the window, not really flying my control is shit but then again it is the first lucid I have had in quite some time. There is really a lack of control going on. I walk around touching up my flat and try biting off bits of my plants, which are way bigger than they normally are. I remember a distinct bitter taste of a “paradise tree” and think you aren't supposed to eat these even in dreams (unsure about the translation).

When down on the ground I call out for Mitzu. I expect her to be behind me. When she comes around I see she is wearing this grey night gown and looks older than she has done before.

I say “Right, Portals!? Tell me, what is going on?” She is reluctant to tell me she doesn't want to teach me at this point in time because there is so much other positive stuff going on in my dreams at this point in time. Bad timing.

I think I might have primed this myself thinking it beforehand not really going in with an open mind regarding what answer I would get. I know what she is referring to though.

FA: I wake up and start talking into my dicta phone.

Notes: I suspect that me transferring to using the dicta phone is actually having an effect on my dreams. I seem to have loads of FAs since starting using it. Potentially this could be due to activations of a brain networks, associated with linguistic performance and speech mediated consciousness, leading to increased cerebral activation.

Skip

Looking at this television show about a guy in the 80es trying to prove lucid dreaming (Called Gray/Grey/Graham?) and he is talking into a dicta phone exactly like mine. But it is an older model. This theory or prove is hidden, the media doesn't want to show it. The media interpret that it is just a guy having done something strange with a bible, and his dream reports are narratives of Jesus leaving a coliseum.

FA: Look at my hands and have a short little lucid where I walk around trying to stabilise the dream.

“Skelly Closets”

I have an actual skeleton lying in my kitchen closet and all the bones are cleaned out. I have to go and show them to one of my really old friends, I for some reason crave his approval.

I run outside and it is really rather windy and wet outside. People are dressed up going to a Halloween party or the like, my mate also is dressed up.

I end up grabbing the skull and just wearing it over my neck like a necklace. I am walking down the street. Something about a programme in which Ryan Reynolds is discussing stupid superhero moves or similar.
…..........

“Spliffs and trains”

I am in a train with Mark and Drew. We are talking about various things, Mark in particular is quite chatty and he has something important he wants to tell me though I recall not what it was. Drew is looking around to see if he should pull out the spliff and light it up, but he decides not to.

The train looks rather luxurious with blue coloured and wooden seatings. Looks like an old school dining wagon, but with more modern seating arrangements without the tables and such, but really high quality.

At one point we drive past another train and I am surprised to find that this train is actually driving in the same direction as us and we are overtaking it.

Upon leaving the train I realise I have left some of my baggage so I run back into the train looking through all the cupboards multiple times to see if I can find it. Thomas M is there as well looking for his baggage and ends up finding his suitcase in a cupboard where I also find, what I believe to be my baggage though I am not entirely sure it is actually mine.

We get outside on the station and everyone is gone. I am unsure of where to go.

“Piquant Talk Show”

There is a TV show. It reminds me of your average talk show with a host sat behind a desk and guests appearing from the left hand side of the screen.

The host presents his next guest which is Hermione, or at least it is supposed to be her, but it is actually a girl from my study. While normally you would see the cameras zoom out and film the guest entering the studio this doesn't happen though it is supposed to. Due to technical difficultise what you see is the face of the host and the rest of the screen turns into bright multi coloured non-specific patterns.

When sat there they start joking around about what they did on the set. The host is rather geeky looking and they had a joke running about this. They stand up and she “kisses” him on the forehead without actually touching his skin. Instead of an actual kiss to the forehead she just blows some wind in his face.

The host proclaim that this was how he felt like in school, which they apparently attended together, where he was also quite the geek. They then stand up again but this time rather passionately licks his face and grabs his crouch while doing all sorts of things.

When they zoom out again, after the kiss which lasts for quite some time, they then zoom into his crouch area again and it is clearly visible that the man has quite the boner going for himself. Then he pulls out his cock and she starts massaging it.

After this she bends over on his chair asking to be pleased. He removes her dress and find that underneath she is wearing this fishnet type clothing. She asks to be licked and he tries doing this while she is still wearing the net, but gives up and removes it.

He then starts pounding her from behind and the camera goes underneath them to show some revealing footage of him wearing a condom, the action and the moistness of her vagina. It turns to slow motion.

I had my very first lucid dream FINALLY. I've had lucid dreams before, but before I joined DV, I was DOING IT ALL WRONG lol. So, I consider this to be my first lucid dream. Before, when I would become lucid, I did nothing with it. For some reason it never crossed my mind, except to wake myself up out of nightmares. But when I would become lucid in a pleasant dream, I wouldn't focus on it, so I'd either slip out of lucidity or wake up. This time, though, I relished in it.

~>>*<<~
I'm seeing things from a 3rd person bird's eye view. The scene is a vast rural area with very tall green grass (about 3 feet). The field is split down the middle by a dirt path. On one side of the path, my mother (who is Chinese in the dream -- I'm not Chinese) is kneeling down doing some yard work (shelling peas or weeding or something).

On the other side of the path, there's a search party tirelessly searching for a young boy who's run away. Suddenly I can barely see a little boy scurrying incredibly fast through the side of the field where my mom is. She spots him, but says nothing to the search party. After they eventually pack up and head off, she goes and finds the boy. Nothing is said between the two of them, but an understanding is reached. She raises the boy until he's about 12 yrs old or so. ~>>>

Now, the view has switched to first person, the boy has become me and I'm an adult. I'm in front of our house, but it's a FANTASTIC house. It's beautiful and it's obvious that we now have a lot of money and are living comfortably. The house is in a quiet neighborhood. It's brown/tan, L-shaped with stone columns on various corners of the house. The driveway is large and open with a stone garden in the middle. There's a car that looks like a Cadillac CTS parked in front. This all starts to tip me off that it's a dream, but I haven't become lucid yet.

I walk around back and am still marveling at the house and it hits me.

~>><<~ I'M DREAMING! I'm already pretty certain I'm dreaming, but to be sure, I do the nose pinch RC. I can breathe through my fingers and I start getting really excited. Everything starts to kind of shake (like in Inception) and I start worrying that I'm going to excite myself right out of the dream. So I try to calm myself down and I spin around looking at the house and the sky and things stabilize. It's not a particularly sunny day. The ground is wet from an earlier shower, and I can smell the rain. My first thought, "I'm going to try to fly!" Totally failed. I tried just using my chi to float upwards and take off. I sort of felt some liftoff, but not really. So I figured maybe if I lay face down on the ground and attempt to take off from there, I'd get something. I did manage to hover a few inches off the ground, but no flight.

A voice from a police scanner (that I never saw) announced that there was some sort of (?)robbery(?) in progress, and I contemplated going there to "hero up" but decided against it since I hadn't even learned to fly yet. A billiard scorer type apparatus (somewhat like a huge one-row abacus) appeared and I decided that I would set the score to zero and move a marker towards the house for every bad guy I thwart. I think I started to lose lucidity a little at this point, but I'm not sure. Then...

~>><<~ My wife woke me up because she thought our dog was outside getting attacked by something. Totally borked out of my first lucid dream. Ah well. I know there will be plenty more. Next time, i WILL fly though! I'm going to study flight tutorials and I'm going to be ready.

DreamSt8

Okay, here's my second lucid dream. I think it's the most amazing lucid dream I've ever had, but you know, I'm also pretty new. Enjoy.
By the way: It's 9/10-11. 9, 10, 11. That's funny!

Walking on the water:

Okay, this dream is really amazing. I controlled a lot of things, and I did one of my goals, which actually was the task of september. Okay..

Me and my dad were walking with my dog. It was night, and dark. I looked up at the stars, they were very brights. We passed a lamppost, and my dad said "I'm going to hold a party right here!". I thoughts it was weird, because I couldn't see a house. I did the nose-pinch RC (again ) and became lucid. I remembered the other dream, and wouldn't use more time at flying. Not for tonight. I was pretty calm, and I told my dad it was a dream. He wouldn't believe me. I looked at a house. "Okay, I wanna try to walk on the water.. But where is water?" I asked myself. "Oh, I can create a beach!"! I looked at a house. "The next time I'm turning around, there is a beach!" I said, and turned around. Yes, there was a beach. But the sun wasn't shining in there, and there was a lot of wind. Now my dad believed me, and we walked over to the beach. When we all were over, I looked back, but the road was gone. The wind blowed in my hair, and it was a little bit cold. I walked down to the water.. The water almost danced, and the wind was really annoying. Suddently it stopped moving, but the wind wasn't gone. But the water was calm. "Okay" I tried to walk on the water. The water was a little bit cold. My food walked thought the water, and I tried again. And again. And again. I became frustrated. I couldn't fly, and now I can't walk on the water! Then, my dad said "Think about, that Jesus did it.". I thought about it, and tried one more time. Amazing! I walked on the water! it was like a wet stone or something. It didn't liked it, it wasn't comfortable, but it was really amazing. then I woke up. Happy.

First of all, it amazing last night. There was a meteor shower. I just lay in the forrest, and looked up at the sky. It was so incredibly beautyful, you can't imagine!

Oh, but I had also had an amazing night! I had 2 lucid dreams, and they were both the longest and most amazing LDs I've ever had. Especially the second. But I'll start with number one, and then I think I'll write the other one in a new entry.

A Dream Within A Dream:

Okay, I had a dream within a dream. And a false awakening. In the first dream, wich I am in only a few secunds, I'm not lucid at all. Only in the dream, I dream in the dream. I know, it's confusing.

I felt alseep in my bed in the dream.
My family and I "woke" up in a dream. In the kitchen. The sun was shining, and the weather was perfect! Suddently, it hitted me, that it was weird, that we all were in the kitchen. I did the nose-pinch reality check, and became lucid! "YAY YAY YAY YAY!" I thought, but began to calm down, because I wouldn't wake up already. "It's a dream!" I told my family, and they got lucid too. I ran outsite on the grass, I was too busy with myself, so I can't remember what my family did. I wanted to fly, because it's one of my biggest goals. I jumped. Nothing happened. I really tried to think that I could fly, but it was almost too unrealistic for me. "Okay, what do I do?" I asked myself, and it hitted me, that I just could create some wings! I focused on the wings, and that I'll get them. After a while, I looked into the window. I saw some big, beautyful, white angle wings!

[CENTER][/CENTER]

I began to move them. What a vividness! I could feel the sun shining on them, I could feel the muscles in them and the wind agains them, when I tried to fly. It helped a little bit, and I could fly about 2 meters up, but I kept falling down. "I have to try this another time I thought, and gave up. I ran into the house, and talked to my family. And then.... everything turned black.
