    1. 16/07/11 - Cockblocking T-rex and hostage situation

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Good morning! I just woke up from a bunch of fucked up dreams, but they were cool! Long and actioned packed. REM rebound from alcohol always delivers.

      03.15: Sleep

      12.30: Supermarket mayhem DILD
      I'm in a car with my mom and my little brother. My mom seems to be pissed about something and drives rather recklessly. She doesn't signal when she's changing lanes and complains about everything. We go down a long hill which leads into town. A stream goes under the road and on the left side, people are fishing, throwing the lure over the road into the pond on the other side. They catch trout and salmon.

      A police motorcycle pulls up next to us. It's got a wagon in which another policeman is sitting. They start signaling. "Oh shit, we're getting pulled over" I say. My mom slows down and goes into the right lane. They go infront of us and start waving their arms, doing some kind of sign language, telling my mom that was reckless driving and she has been warned. They take off and my mom is still pissed.

      "Do you hear that?" she asks me. There's something wrong with the engine of the car, it rattles and doesn't sound good at all. "Well I just bought new energizers, and they were broke!" she tells me. I figure it's some kind of spark plug device. "You need to go into the supermarket and buy new ones for me" she says and takes an exit. We stop infront of the local supermarket. "There's a cartridge in the back" she tells me and I get out of the car and head to the back. I open the trunk and look around. "There's no fucking cartridge here" I tell her. "Look closer god damnit!"

      I find it, it's a pink one. "Oh I found it, nevermind" I say and close the trunk. I head in through the store. Oh, they've redone the entire place, I don't recognise anything really. I try to find the section where they sell car parts, but all I see is boots and shoes. I wander around for a while before finding a small table in the middle of the shoe section on which I find a pink cartridge. "Mineral pills" it says. That's definitely not the one I was looking for.

      I pick up my phone and call my mom again and tell her they don't have it. I try to find my way out of the store, holding my stomach to prevent the cuts I've mysteriously gotten from bleeding. Perhaps I should go to the hospital, or do it myself. I remember my coworker Valdis saying he used to sew his own cuts. I grab a pack of bandaids and head for the cashier.

      I bring out my card and the guy in the cashier asks for my ID. I hand it to him and he exclaims: "What do we have here? Is this really you?" he says and says another guys name. He shows me the picture on the ID and I realise it's not mine. Oh shit that's right! I gave my friend Victor my real one, this is his friends. "Hey guard, come over here" he says and a security guard shows up. He explains it all. The guard takes a look at what I'm buying. "That's it? You can go then" he tells me. Sweet.

      I try to pay with the card, but that's not mine either and I don't know the code. Shit! The guy in the cashier seems to be pissed about the fact that I didn't get in trouble. I hand him a 100 crowns bill and hold out my hand for the change. "Here you go" he says and puts a bunch of coins in my hand. I count them. "So a pack of bandaids costs like 80 crowns? I ask him. I'm starting to get pissed off.

      He brings up two 20 crown bills, messes them up and throws them at me. "Here's your change" he says and I can tell he's pissed, but so am I. I throw the small change in his face as I'm walking away. "Fuck you." The guy gets up and attacks me. We throw a couple of punches, at first mine are all weak and I don't seem to be doing much damage. After a few seconds I start hitting him brutally with knees and elbows. I kick his legs and he falls to the ground. God damnit now I'm in trouble! And great, I have no ID.

      I realise I have to find my own ID before I get caught, or I'll be in big trouble. My friends Felix and Victor are outside on the parking lot. I start walking towards the entrance of the store. When I reach it a person is blocking the way, holding a woman by the throat with her back against him. He's pointing a gun at her head. I head back in. "Okaaaay..." I say and look around. There's people being held hostage all around us, and I spot Felix and Victor behind a fence. "Hey Victor! I need my ID" I tell him.

      The hostage takers seems to be Italian. "I will bring out my wallet, slowly" I tell them and do it super slowly. I hand him the ID of his friend. "Your ID is in the car man" he tells me. Fuck! I look around the store and wonder if the police will show up soon. All of a sudden we hear a huge crash, Felix throws himself to the ground. "What the hell was that?" he asks. I look out through a small window. A small plane has just crashed into the building. "It's your older brother" I tell him, knowing he's a pilot.

      The plane backs up on the parking lot. This time with full throttle, the plane smashes right into the building further away, creating a big hole. As the entire plane disappears into the building, the walls and roof starts collapsing. Shelves packed with chips comes crashing down, spraying chips everywhere. "Holy shit" I say before hell breaks loose.

      Everyone starts shooting at eachother. I see people from the military, shooting at eachother aswell as the captors. I have no idea who they are, and whose side they're all on. A girl picks up a huge chainsaw and cuts a few people in half. She runs around the store, going berserk. I figure if I just lie down, people will think I'm dead and leave me alone. I lie down between two food shelves and pretend to be dead. I almost fall asleep as I'm lying there, trying not to shake with fear.

      After a while I can hear people around me. I look up and on the shelf above me and a big guy in shorts is sitting there. All of a sudden a basketball shoots out from nowhere and he kicks it. I get up and move out of the way. A bunch of people are playing some insane version of basketball and they keep kicking the ball, or hitting it to eachother. The ball moves at an incredible speed and they seem to have super reflexes. I walk away into a corner, take a few boxes of toys and a blue teddy bear and put them infront of me, hiding.

      I stay there for a few minutes until the manager of the sport comes along. He looks at me while commenting on the match. I get up and head for the entrance once again. It's blocked off. I decide to just walk. I find a fat guy sitting at the fruit stands, clearly gone insane from all the chaos. He's talking to himself. I head on and arrive at the sodas. Two foreign guys appears with their arms full of six packs of soda. I accidentaly bump into one of them and he drops them all. It's Oranginas and energy drinks. I help him pick them up but the cardboard holding them together keeps breaking.

      I pick up an energy drink and taste it. It tastes amazing! I spin the weird can which is thicker at the top and try to find the brand. "Falcon," cool! I drink it all up. The foreign guy decides to push a metallic shelf on wheels instead and I help him out. We push the thing into another shelf, which starts a chain reaction. It's like dominoes. Bottles crash into other bottles, but none break. The whole thing stops moving after a while.


      I get lucid like that. I look around at the different sodas and coffee brands. This is great, tasting everything in here before buying it in the store! I recall this is my second time getting lucid tonight, sweet.

      12.30: Fishing for trout
      The ponds containing trout up on the hill before entering town, is where we're heading at. I'm with Monica, my brother Martin and my coworker Holger. We go up the hill and look into the waters. I see several big, white fish. "That's not it is it?" my brother asks me. I see two more fish further away and they've got red and blue stripes on their backs. "This is it" I say. We all need fishing gear though, and further down the road, I know people have left some.

      There's water everywhere for some reason, and we arrive at a wooden dock. Martin and Monica takes the two fishing lines someone's hidden. I spot a lure in the water and decide to take it. Holger starts swimming towards it but I grab the line and pull it in before he can reach it. "I'm going to use one, no matter what I say" and let the rest fight over the other two. We start walking back towards the ponds.


      12.30: Darn T-rex!
      I'm in another country on a vacation with Monica. We're sitting outside of a long hedge, watching the landscape. "It's so nice here, no one to see what we're doing" Monica says and starts taking off her clothes. She sits down ontop of me. I look over her shoulder up on the road going through some hills. I spot the silhouette of a dinosaur on the top. We start having sex and I figure the dinosaur won't trouble us anyways. A few seconds later I look over her shoulder again and watch as the dinosaur, a T-rex, comes down from the hill and screams at the cars. It starts running towards us.



      "Shit, babe we gotta run" I say and stand up. I grab Monica's hand and head through the thin wooden door in the hedge and close it shut. We sit down on a bench under some roof. The T-rex seems to be pissed, but I know it won't destroy the hedge to reach us. Monica, who has now turned into my brother Morgan, starts mumbling. "Shut up!" I whisper angrily. He won't shut up though and tries to talk. I grab his mouth. "He's going to kill us if you don't shut up" I tell him and release him. "You're mean" he tells me.

      All of a sudden the T-rex runs off to the right, and I know he'll find an entrance further down. "Okay let's go" I tell my brother and head for the old wooden houses just a few feet away. My brother goes into one of them and I the other just next to it. I climb a few ladders and reach the attic. A big gaping hole lets me see what's going on in the house my brother is in. I see the back of an enormous wild boar standing in the living room. Oh shit.


      12.30: Fragments
      *Got a fragment of me being lucid, and having sex with Monica. I tell her something sweet, like I would always pick her.

      12.30: Wake up

      Amount of sleep: 9 hours

      Supplements: Lots of alcohol


      That's it! Crazy dreams. I also have the vague memory of throwing around things with telekinesis, but I don't know if that's a previous memory or if I actually did it. I know I was lucid twice last night, but I can't really recall so I'll just count it as once.

      Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!
    2. Sleep Paralysis

      by , 07-16-2011 at 10:33 AM
      I could hear the familliar sound of sleep paralysis coming from a distance. Soon it was all over me and my breathing got slower. I waited to see what would happen and then I felt something grab my ankles.
      I was dragged out of my bed, and found myself standing right next to it.
      I looked down and saw myself sleeping (OBE). I poked myself and the body sat bolt upright in the bed. It was quite werid to look straight into the eyes of myself. Excited I said to my mirrorimage: Is this cool or what!? He quickly aswered, hell yeah! then the floor dissapeared underneath me and I fell. I saw shadows flying past me and then in the distance I could see a floor. It was as if I fell from the ceiling of a very very tall room. I smacked against the floor and stood up quickly. I was in a playroom filled with creepy toys such as clowns and rubber ducks. I was about 10 cm tall from what I could tell. I quickly looked down on my hands just to make sure I was dreaming, fingers where popping out everywhere, so I didn't bother counting them (RC). The first thought I had was that I needed to get out of here. I turned around and saw a door in my size. I ran for it and flung it open. I stepped out onto a large beach. The doorpost where standing all by itself in the sand. There was a sofa beside it and a small tree. In the tree there was a bird with a large beak looking curiously at me. ''What did you want to tell me?'' The voice came from a girl sitting in the sofa. (I must admit, I was pretty lost at this point ) She got up and walked towards me and then I woke up I was lucid throughout the dream but I think my subconscious got the better of me
    3. MY FIRST LUCID!!!!!!! OOOMG! Im literally crying im so happy!

      by , 07-16-2011 at 09:21 AM
      Non-lucid Partially Lucid Lucid
      This was not very vivid.
      It starts with me and my brother going on a big adventure that was in another dream before so it is the 2nd dream that I had like that. The main bit I remember is me and my bro hiding in a air vent or something while toxic gas went in the air and my dad was in the gas but survived. I then woke up but it was like 5am so I went back to sleep when suddenly A SCENE FORMED AROUND ME!!! It started off blurry then went in to view and I knew I was entering a dream to I really tried holding on to the image and it worked! Note: When I was holding on to the image I repeated a mantra in my head: I AM DREAMING. Just so I remembered. I was at this random street near a park but then I lost lucidity I went back home suddenly and looked out my window to see a mattress and a dead (?) guy. I was freaked out and went somewhere else. I saw a few people from my school and expected one of the boys to say "Hi" then he did and I was like "We are definitely dreaming." I went back home again and my cousin was there. I said "Did you know we are dreaming?" and she said "No we are not because if we are then my password would not work on this computer and it does." I was trying to convince her while we walked outside and suddenly there was these random card games with weird names like Moonshine and we had to play them all. (There was 3 games) We chose Moonshine but then some giant evil cards with faces came up to us! My cousin, Eleanor was screaming and running around but I just lied on the floor totally relaxed. The card did nothing to me. The next game of evil cards, I suggested she lay on the floor too because we camouflage! So, on the second round, we camouflaged into the ground and the cards did not get us. Same goes to the third round. The games were finished and then I remembered to do a reality check! It was so annoying because it did not work. (I try it later on in the dream and it doesn't work at any time.) I was then at an arcade and some random things happened so i went off. I then tried to turn myself invisible by clicking my fingers but it did not work. I tried to fly but again, it did not work. Some flying expert told me that if I press the "Up" arrow on any computer or something then I can fly! I tried it and it worked!!!!! I was only a meter or so off the ground though. After that, I went into a Mario game or something and tried to make friends with a bad guy.

      The end! I hope you enjoyed reading my first lucid!
      This is so exciting for me even though it was not fully lucid!

    4. A Medieval Lucid 7/15/11

      by , 07-15-2011 at 05:27 PM (Mancon's Wild and Crazy Adventures in the Dream World)
      I attempted a WILD at 3 last night, but I fell asleep Luckily, I still had a lucid!
      I was walking down a crowded dirt street towards a HUGE castle.

      I have been practicing All Day Awareness lately and decided to just stop and go through all my senses. I could hear people walking everywhere around. My body felt normal. Then I looked around and realized I was in a very unusual setting.

      I did a reality check and realized I was dreaming! It looked like I was in a medieval town, right on the outskirts of a HUGE castle. I saw someone nearby riding a horse. I ran towards it, jumped up and kicked the rider off. I hoped on the horse, and started to fly gallop.

      I headed straight towards the top of the castle and wanted to see the king. I went right through the window with colored glass shattering all around me. The king was sitting at his chair looking astonished.
      "How dare you enter my castle!"
      I willed him to calm down, and suddenly he looked confused and smiled at me.

      "I would like a high quality dragon, that I could fly whenever I wish." I told him.

      "And what will you give me?" he said

      "How about this?" I pulled out my cell phone in my pocket and handed it to him. "You can call anyone in the world in an instant."

      "This...is....magical. I will get your dragon right away."

      He handed me a small dragon statue in a glass bottle. The dragon was green, and he told me it could breath out ice.

      "Just break the bottle whenever you want the dragon to come alive." he told me.


      I grabbed my horse and flew to a mountain outside of the village. On the top of the mountain I broke the bottle. The dragon came to life and expanded to a great size. I climbed up his tail to his back. His scales felt rough, like bark. The dragon soared off the mountain into the sky. I told him to take me wherever he wanted.

      He dove straight down and an ocean was approaching fast. Right when we touched the water I slammed open my eyes in real life, and woke up .

    5. 07/15/11

      by , 07-15-2011 at 05:03 PM (Dreamscapes)
      Lucid. Was in some strange land with Kara. She took me there to show me her secret land. It was really beautiful and there were waves that would almost completely cover us but wouldn't. I realized that I could control the waves and that I was dreaming. Filled with excitement I would make the wave rise to the sky and back down. I did this for a while and really looked around at the amazing night sky. The clouds were blocking a light so I moved them with the flick of my hand to reveal the moon. It was super bright so I looked away. I had a funny idea so I started hitting the water with my finger like a wand. Every time I did a giant burst of water would shoot up and music would start. It was like the bellagio fountain and it went duh na na na NAaa nana nana and sounded really good. I was having a good time. My dog woke me up

    6. Car Rolling Backwards

      by , 07-15-2011 at 12:23 PM
      I was in a house similar but not the same as the one I grew up in. My brother had been smoking pot (not in real life did he ever, to my knowledge) and I was angry with him for not sharing with me. Then I woke up in a car similar to but not the same as my real car; I was lying down feet toward the front. I wondered why I'd been sleeping in the car; the dream was vivid had I had a sense all this was reality. Slowly, the car started rolling backwards. Oh oh... it's going to crash into something, but for some reason I couldn't do anything about it. As the car continued rolling backwards, I realized it must be a dream and woke up. I should mention that I'd been taking Xanax for insomnia after prostate surgery for about two weeks and had been tapering off. Last night was my first night without it.

      Lucid 5 (WILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      It was night-time, I'm in my room staring out the window, I felt something come up from behind me. I phased through the window/wall and then landed outside in my backyard, facing my bedroom window. I wasn't wearing shoes, I could feel the grass under my feet. The window was bigger than normal. I started to lose clarity and stated rubbing my hands but everything was still going blurry. Oh right- I looked at my hands while running them, then dream began stabilising again.
      I flew up over the roof and phased down from it, back into my room. I was sloowly losing clarity. I wanted to ground my senses, and having read Hyu's dream journals, I materialised an ipod from my pockets and put my headphones on. I said out loud "play". It started playing some Senses Fail.
      I teleported into my kitchen and grabber a pear out of a box, I didn't even reach fully into the box. Taking a bite of the pear, it was sweet. I started walking back towards the bathroom and expected my dg to be there. It didn't work. I closed and reopened the door, attempting to make my DG appear again. Nada.
      I walked back into my room and noticed that my ipod had stopped playing. I lightly layed a finger on it and said "Beast" (an artist). Music started playing, but it wasn't BEAST (maybe it's cause i've only recently started listening to their songs). My girlfriend called and I lost alot of lucidity. She asked me about my day of school.
      "What?"
      "How was your day at school?"
      "I wasn't at school.."

      Then I was somehow talking to my friend John about a new Eminem song and how it felt like it related to his father.
      I looked up at my stereo system, but in it's place was a fanXvending machine.
      I thought "Why don't I put some water in there.."

    8. July 15, 2011

      by , 07-15-2011 at 09:40 AM (Zelkova's Dream Jounral: Part Two)
      Notes:
      *I took a nap around 4:00 PM woke up once having a small recall of a dream but couldn't remember (may be too lazy and decided to go back to sleep) then woke up again around 1:00 AM with dream 1. Dream 2 follow shortly after within a hour or two.
      *After the first dream I turn on my computer and open notepad to take notes
      *Dream 2 may be a day dream and a dream combo as I was thinking about my last dream before falling asleep. It seem the time wouldn't be long enough to have a dream...

      Dream 1: [Not Lucid though I believe I effected it somehow]

      I wanted to watch a movie call Groundhog Day which is about a guy who repeat the same day of his life. I never seen any clips or anything though. I don't even know what the main character look like. (Learn about it from an epic Supernatural episode.)

      I dream of the "main character" walking around doing the movie. He look like a guy who should be in church 27/7 wearing a blue suit/red tie with brown church comb hair.

      I don't recall much of the start but a black kid (his friend?) was on a stake board riding down an area that is near my house on the building porch (it a huge building...kinda like a mini mega mall) He said something like "Did you know _______ can effect time" or something like that. The blank was the words Bermuda Triangle and noise mixed together. Bermuda noise sound about right. The main character gave a odd reply like "I must change time" or something that confuse the black kid.

      There was a SUPER FREAKING BIG tornado. This bad boy is like 100 times bigger then any 2012 or fake tornado that you may have seen. This was assume to be like a state or so away.

      There was a building gate thing closing everyone off in a open area. I have no clue what stopping people from going around but hey, it a dream/movie...Logic don't exist. The main character needed to get to the other side of the building but the wind is too strong. He and a few other people start holding hands and start helping each other to the other side. They added more people to the hand holding group and the main character started to say "no homo". Him and a DC or two started to say that every 5 secs while walking.

      My dream decided to tell a movie-like joke as a black guy walk by and one of the DC (also black and was the first to hold the main character hand) said "I think he might be homo".

      Anyway we got to the other side but the guards + wind pretty much made everyone give up hope.

      You know how when you want a character to do something in a movie you would wish it very hard and may even shout it out loud? "LOOK BEHIND YOU!" for example?

      Anyway a character I made up which I dubbed "The Assassin" is pretty much like Mask wearing Ichigo from Bleach. A few changes but wearing a black outfit and a pure white mask with black hair coming from the mask. He is a demon I thought up which was inspire greatly by Ichigo. He use a dagger which wasn't seen here. The main reason why he was created was simply to be a demon that I could transform into with a special power that I can use within dreams.

      I was still not lucid but I was somehow able to suggest this and the main character transform into the assassin. Everyone around him was shocked. The assassin power was being able to break down matter at will. Beside that he just very kickass.

      He punch one of the guard and push the other. He destroy the gate and destroy the 2nd gate. The guards was after him which at this point feel like it was me. (Still not lucid >.>) We were like on the top of the great wall of China kind of thing where you can only drive a car on.

      Anyway I try to destroy part of the back of the school bus that was there but was unable to at this point. It was raining and yet no wind...None at all beside the small amount needed to push the rain at an angel.

      I took the bus by opening the main doors and took off. The bus was somehow our run the guard on top of the fixed wall-of-china path.

      After a while I just hold down the gas not caring to control the bus at the path was fixed. The path was like a story high. I saw that the path ended to ground level and have a feeling the guard knew so. At this point I felt the need to run as far and as fast as I can. I step on the gas to have the bus crashing down. It was ok but I felt the bus was useless now.

      I recall the bus crushing toy trains on the way down...A school tour of some kind of train thing? That would explain the toy train, school bus and great-wall-of-china...

      Anyway the area was surrounded with a building (derp, didn't even think about entering it...Still not lucid.) and some kind of cheap blue wall that you may find on mid-size pools.

      I went into a building/cave like area to the right and it seem to be like a sewer full of watery shit. I didn't mind...Only went up to my knees. There was a window to my right...I look out and to my left to see there was a wall of ground/mud...No way I am trying to go up that. I look at my choices. There was a waterfall of shit that I not going to go through...and looking outside of the window to see if I can go around the wall of dirt I saw it was pretty much a ditch.

      I woke up.

      Dream 2: [Lucid though as noted before this could be a day dream combo]

      I reran the dream again starting where I was the assassin. I took the bus and knowing that I have dream control I fixed the pathway. I went and there was a blue tube on the other side. The bus was somehow able to fit and after a while of going in and out of tubes (one of which had water making my pants and mid area wet) it finally ended in a forest...Well more like a plain area with a few skinny trees.

      There was a platform about up to my neck. I decided to jump super high but was only able to barely make it to the top of the platform. Seem like my dream control is being a dick. I walk to see a highway. At this point the tornado and pretty much everything else was out of my mind...I just wanted to see if I could have found a way out. (Like I said...This could be a deep day dream)

      I saw a guy looking at a poster on a wall...He was wearing a bookbag where a snail came out and started to wave at me. I walk over to the snail and it told me something I forgot. (Adventure Time anyone? http://adventuretimewithfinnandjake....com/wiki/Snail)

      Only thing I remember is G35S/G35s/G35

      Which when typing into Google only show me a car...So yea...No clue on what my subconscious is trying to tell me.

      This is one of the few times where I repeated a dream and the FIRST time I ever done it at will...Somewhat.

      QUESTION: Is is possible to have complete dream control when not lucid? I believe I did this though dream control somewhat fail me when it come to destroying the back of the bus.

      Whooooo, another MILD attempt last night. I woke up around 630 AM, stayed up 10 minutes, and the result was a sort of lucid dream about an hour later. The 10 minute thing seems to be working pretty well, but I may need to stay up a little longer or be a bit more active during the 10 minutes, because I still feel like I'm falling asleep almost instantly when I lie down again.

      Then, this morning when I got out of bed, at first I didn't remember that many dreams, but I got into a strange half-sleepy mode where I could suddenly remember a LOT of dreams from last night. This happens to me sometimes at night when I'm falling asleep, I'll suddenly start remembering a bunch of old dreams in a chain. Anyways, here they all are!

      I began the dream in a sort of grocery store. After a few moments, I was (partially) lucid; I think I did a nose-plug RC. I tried to stabilize everything and get into a clear mindset. I remembered one idea I had to help me focus and become fully conscious: remembering some things I'm doing in the coming week IRL. I only managed to recall two of them before losing attention, and I don't remember exactly what they were. I also switched to thinking in French for a while.

      A friend of mine appeared to my left, and showed me a table with a whole bunch of food and stuff, inviting me to dig in. I started with a weird sort of bar of hard candy, but it tasted very strange so I spit it out. I think I had a slice of pizza and just generally pigged out because I knew it didn't matter and it's always interesting to see how things will taste in a dream.

      After this, my recall of the dream is blurry for a while, I remember an Asian girl, a large lake that I considered swimming in but eventually decided not to, and some alternation between day and night. Eventually I ended up in a sort of motel room. The dream got pretty strange from there, so I'll pass on writing up the rest.

      This whole dream occurred in some kind of large underground mall/subway station. In the dream, I would repeatedly have to run and jump really fast to get from one side of the station to another. There was an elevator on both ends of the mall that I would go into. I would sprint, slide along rails and doing a whole bunch of acrobatic stuff I probably couldn't pull off in real life.

      It was all pretty fun, but I was also scared because I was being chased (by police and other characters), so basically running for my life. Sometimes there was this sort of witch/hag dressed all in black after me. She would occasionally catch up with me and grab me. She had a kind of magical touch and whenever I came into contact with her it was like I was being electrocuted -- I could barely move and it was quite painful. Thankfully, I would get rescued by a mysterious woman who would fight off the hag whenever this happened, buying just enough time for me to run to the escape elevator, which took me back to the start.


      Once, while in the elevator I saw a tiny inscription near the buttons, that said something about how this "game" worked: every 3 rounds there would be a more difficult, advanced round (which is where the hag usually showed up). Apparently after 3 advanced rounds it would all be finished. On the last run that I remember, near the start I was approached by a well-dressed Asian man. He apparently worked for the evil corporation that was after me, but had decided to betray them. He led me into a secret area of the mall, and I don't remember what he showed me there.

      Date: July 13th, 2011
      Length: 3 minutes


      I was in a city, though at times I was semi-aware of it all being part of a video game. I knew there was some sort of fixed plot I was to follow, somehow related to the movie the Sorcerer's Apprentice (which I haven't seen but whose title I saw the other day). There was a weird tension to the dream, so for a while I was intentionally just walking around doing nothing, kind of afraid of actually starting the plot. I rode on a bus for a while and just looked around, surprised that the city was so big (ie, that the game had such a vast area to explore).

      Eventually, I ended up in a dark, creepy bathroom. The stalls were filled with junk, and in one of them I found a really strange pencil. It was somewhat pink and decorated, and it was apparently a wand of great power. I remember taking it, but nothing after that.



      And some fragments:

      - I was at home, juggling a soccer ball in the back yard. I accidentally kicked it too hard though and it went over the fence. I was about to go get the ball, but the dream ended.

      - I was looking on facebook, and I was surprised to see that an old friend was participating in a competition that I'm entering.

      - A strange dream where I was exploring what was supposed to be a college campus, but it really just seemed to be some place in the mountains. I think I had a few moments of lucidity, then the rest of the dream just got blurry and weird.

      - I was "in" a game similar to minecraft. In front of me was a long bridge, and at the end of the bridge was a giant red sort of laser beam. My friends told me that it was a portal to hell, and that I should just jump into it. When I did, I died and all my stuff dropped down far below. I respawned and tried to go get my stuff, but down where it had fallen was a whole bunch of lava and only a few stepping stones and water. I managed to get down there but struggled to escape and I think I died a few more times.

      - A dream where I ended up back at several old places where I supposedly used to live (they were somewhat similar, but none of them actually exist): one was a tiny place with two beds, with another room down the hall for doing things besides sleeping. There was also a depressing 1-room lodge.

      Dream Lucid Me DC

      Dream 1: I was on my school yard with some big guy. I was lucid. I'm not sure about, but I might have entered the dream through a portal. The man said that he was waiting for her daughter to get something to him from the school. He told me he was a god. I saw a girl come out of the building and give the man something. Then the man was holding a metal rod. There were other children around me. The man told me that he had a house in the moon and that he could teleport us there with this metal rod. I pointed at the moon and shouted "To the moon!" The rod started glowing white. He swinged it in front of us and we teleported. It was dark, so I couldn't see anything. Then we teleported back. I had lost lucidity and woke soon after.

      Dream 2: I was in some school. Me and some other students were removing books from an bookshelf in order to get to the other side. Then we left and started to play ice hockey. We won the match, but then a female teacher came in followed by a crowd of zombified children. (Apparently some children had been disappearing from the school. And here they were. One of the zombified girls started talking to one non-zombified boy. "Help me.. I'm dying." she said. The boy promised to help, but told the girl to act brainwashed until he could come up with a plan. We went on to a balcony right above the playing area. The boy who talked to the girl was short, so I lifted him so he could see the zombified kids playing ice hockey. We talked a bit about how we could help them. Then the short boy fell over the safety rail. I grabbed his arm and the two other boys with us grabbed me and we pulled him back. Then our principle gave us a speech. No idea what he said. The school flooded (It was build on a small island.) And only me and some other boy got away. We went to our house. (We were adults now.) There was some poster on the wall showing two safe places around here. The other one was this house. My friend told me to look outside the window behind me. There was a military truck there and soldiers came out from it. Then I saw some more soldiers standing near a gas station on the other side of the house and told him to look at it. It took me a while to get him to look at the right way, but when he did, he became worried. He told me we were leaving. I realized that those soldiers were the once zombified kids, as well as the rest of the school, now all brainwashed by the teacher. We took our bikes (He might had had a motorcycle.) and started going away. (Something may have happened before this, but it was probably just shooting some guards.) I saw a sign that had the same poster attached to it as the one I saw in the house. We started going to the safe place. On the way one kid from my real school joined us. The road finally kinda ended inside a building. (One wall was gone and the road went in from there.) We got to the corner of the room where there was one lone computer. I thought he was going to get some information from it, which I thought was a stupid idea, because there were two brainwashed girls getting closer. Instead my friend lifted the computer and threw it through one of the windows and jumped down. I followed him and the boy from my school came last. There was a small edge on the wall and we hided under it. The girls looked outside the window, but didn't see us, even though really they would have. I looked around to make sure no one else was coming this way. I crossed my eyes and started seeing the world differently. Although the only difference was that the world seemed more dark and I could see the ground go up and down on one spot. I thought it was some guard travelling underground. I waited till the girls went away and shot to the ground. My friend asked me what the hell did I think I was doing. I told him about the guard and shot again. He told me to not waste any ammo. I pushed my hand underground to the spot where I thought I saw the guard. My hand touched some smooth and round. A lot like a human skull. I pulled my hand away as I didn't want to see what it was. We saw the ocean not far from there. The boy from my school started trying to wake himself up. I heard a voice saying something like "And then he tried to wake himself up by closing and opening his eyes rapidly." I tried it too. Didn't work. We jumped into the sea, my friend first, me second and the boy last. We stayed underwater to avoid the guards. I started wondering how I could hold my breath so long. (Nope, no lucidity here.) Then I tried to wake myself up again and it worked.

      Fragment: Reading someones DJ where he/she met three characters. I only remember one called "Princess Twilight."
    11. Getting Closer to Chicen Itza

      by , 07-15-2011 at 02:47 AM (Ww dj)
      A hand RC and lucid. In a room, standing on flowing cloud like goo. Stabilize. Walk out of the room, trying to expect Chicen Itza. There is a long corridor of stairs surrounded by walls of goo. Walk up the stairs and turn the corner. There are many geysers of goo blocking my vision. They subside and reveal a scene that resembles the pyramid. It is a pyramid with stairs, but not Chicen Itza. There are many people here, like a village, and consider asking around for dreamers, but its not the right location. There is a woman at the top of the stairs with a baby. It feels like a ritual is going on with the child. The mood is spooky, like a sacrifice. When I climb the stairs, the woman and child have been replaced by a body, laying inside a funeral pyre. Decide to keep looking for Chicen Itza. May have waked or lost lucidity. Had several non-lucids after this before writing it down, so the recall is not completely fresh.

    12. Too Nice and Distracted

      by , 07-15-2011 at 02:15 AM (Zukin's Dream Journal! <3)
      I was at SD's house. We were hanging out and he was having a party. He showed me a cool website that was a lot like grooveshark, except one would reserve certain songs for certain says. The front page had a calendar of the week with songs lined up on it.

      "Do you hear that...?" He whispered.

      "No...I don't hear anything..." I responded.

      "Shh...Sounds very low, very bassy..." He added.

      I didn't hear anything. We went to the bouncy house in front of his house and I finally heard what he was talking about. Somebody was playing their guitar outside!

      He came inside the bouncy house and started rocking out. I tripped and accidentally bounced into the netting on the backside of the bouncy house...And when I did, I had a strange vision. It was like for a moment I had poked my head into someone else's dream.

      There was something strange about what lay past the white netting of the bouncy house. Very strange and curious. I pushed myself into the netting. It was like trying to walk through elastic saran wrap.

      I began to see that I was traveling through a psychedelic tunnel. On the sides of the tunnel were sometimes snippets of scenes and people as if they were on film, acting out their lives as if everything was normal.


      I saw a scene of a guy I knew, he was sitting in a locker room alone. I pushed my way into the scene, until I was standing there with him.

      "Woah, woah, woah, shorty!" He said as he realized that I was standing there.

      "What's up?"

      "You look like...A shiny, glossy, metallic person from another dimension!" He exclaimed.

      I looked down at myself and chuckled. Indeed, I looked exactly that!


      I sort of looked like that guy above, but more gray metallic.

      "So, what are you doing?" I asked.

      "Waiting here for my parents to come. We're supposed to do some weird family photo together. It's their dream or something to have a photo together since we are always apart," He responded.

      Dream...Hmmm, I should do a reality check, I thought.

      I did a reality check and found that I had five fingers and a thumb. I dismissed it at first, then did a double take. I couldn't believe that I was dreaming!!! Everything seemed so real.

      "We're dreaming!" I told him, "Do a reality check!"

      He looked puzzled for a moment before I explained that he had to see if he had the correct amount of fingers.

      I wanted to stabilize before I went out to try and do the Nightstalker Tasks. I walked around the locker room and went into the girl's bathroom. The entire scene was very yellow and green. It was kind of creepy. I was trying to read the words that were written on some of the bathroom stalls. All of them sounded rather despairing and unfortunate. It was hard to make out the words because of the nature of the dream. One of the sentences said something like, "All there is left is false hope."

      Once I decided I was stabilized enough, I left the bathroom to try and find a graveyard.

      "Wait! Wait! Don't leave without me!" He yelled. I had completely forgotten about him! I decided that if he has never lucid dreamed before, then I should take him flying.

      We left the locker room and went into the main school hall ways. The halls were flooded with students. We easily navigated our way out.

      As soon as I got out of the door I looked to the sky. Perfect blue skies in hyper clarity.

      I told him to grab my hand and I launched off into the air. He seemed absolutely delighted. I let go so he could fly on his own. We landed back on the sidewalk.

      He tried to launch off on his own, but stumbled.

      "How do you get back up in the air?" He asked.

      "Anyway you want," I replied, "you can flap you arms, pretend to swim, whatever. Don't try, just do."

      He got the hang of it immediately.

      "You're a natural!" I shouted out to him.

      Even though I feel like I got completely distracted from what I was supposed to do, this was honestly one of the best flying experiences I have had. Everything was in HYPER clarity, and I could feel the wind rushing against me as we flew, and I could feel the height that we were at, it was just awesome.

      We landed back down on the grass so he could bring some more friends up there with him, but I woke up.

    13. Lucid with no dream control

      by , 07-15-2011 at 02:09 AM (Clarity Filtering)
      As I said before I dream a lot about work. yesterday while at work I set my timer to go off every thirty minutes to do an RC.

      This evening I went for a short nap and it started with me leaving work with flowers in my hands. The flowers were invisible. I then proceeded to raise them above my head while exiting the building, by the time I completely left, the flowers were (or I was imagining they were) making a swirling galaxy shape a few feet above my head while I moved my arms to make them move in that way. once I was outside I launched the flowers as hard as I could into the evening sky. They were still invisible. BTW the reflection in the windows of the doors leading out cast small white spheres which at first glance seemed like stars in the sky.

      I asked, "am I dreaming?" but it was only a reflex due to my previous day's routine. I asked myself what I wanted and almost immediately sent out a request to meet a dream guide or spirit guide but nothing happened. I was walking and a woman and her son walked by and small dandelion seeds landed on his face and then large dandelion seeds landed on me. I wanted something interesting to happen so I tried leaping twice and nothing. then at the corner where stairs led down about eight of them I tried again and failed and almost fell. was at the traffic corner and traffic was moving on red lights and stopping on green. Saw large building from my hometown. Feeling frustrated from having no direction and ability to change my surroundings I entered a Mc D's to ask for an ice cream and try not to pay for it. went to the cashier, A dark-skinned man in plain clothes made eye contact and walked away. and that was that.

      It most likely is in the tutorials about what to try to develop DC but I am more interested in a guide. Maybe he was it but if there's anyone who has experience with this let me know.
    14. A non lucid lucid dream?..

      by , 07-14-2011 at 07:16 PM
      So I was having this dream, where we were helping this guy (who seemed an AWFUL LOT LIKE A VAMPIRE) collect these special drinks so that he could suicide (maybe he was a vampire) because he was like, tired of his life or whatever. Anyway we got all of them, and were going to help him with his last thing he had to do, when I found out it was a trick. I don't really know what he was planning to do, but it was EVIL. So anyway we steal this shotglass or whatever from him, because it was magic or something. Then we're like, sent into a dream where we have to find it again, because we lost it. So me and this girl (I dont remember where she came from) were in a dream, the dream was like some kind of really nice resteraunt that had a stage for live performances. So me and her know we're in a dream, and we're looking around. We try changing the dream so that it'll be easier to find, but can't. So we just look around, right when I find it the girl I was looking with turned into the vampire guy (D:!) and some other people in the resteraunt turn into villains from batman. So i'm like "Then I'll just be batman" so I sorta turn into batman, and start using my grappling hook to swing around and escape the bad guys. Theeen I woke up.

      But it's weird, because I didn't realize I was dreaming, when I had the dream in my dream.. So like, I was lucid, but didn't know it?..

    15. Stealing a flute and turning King Arthur into smithereens

      Stealing a flute and turning King Arthur into smithereens. (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Well, it has been over a month I did not write down dreams. I have been horribly busy and did not focus as much (this proves my delay in getting these ToTM done.)

      This will change soon in the upcoming weeks, but let's go for the dream!

      I was in a big room with a lot of people. I was giving a energy healing to a lady. I did not recognize the place where I was in, as it was a different place where I use to give my energy healings, so I realized I was dreaming. I checked my hands to make sure, the hands looked OK but I still knew I was dreaming. I finished the energy healing, just in case it was an astral being in need of a healing rather that just a Dream Character. When I was done, I took flight and flew through the window.

      It was sunny and I was not in San Diego, but in a different country. I was going to project, but I recalled that I still did not get my ToTM done, so I went for it.

      I started to look for a musical instrument. As I was walking, I saw sticks on the floor. I focused I could play them as if they were flutes, but I felt that it could be a poorly done ToTM, as I needed to find an actual instrument.

      I saw a building that was my hight school. I decided to find the music room, I was sure I could find some instruments there. I was flying towards my school and felt that I could wake up, I did not feel anchored to the dream at all. The school was crowded, so I wanted to do it fast.

      I entered the school and found a lot of random people. I was going to the second floor, hoping I would both remember where the class was
      (it has been 10 years since I was no there) As I was going to the second floor, I saw a kid with a flute. Perfect!!! I took the flute from his hands. While he started to complain, I played it. It sounded exactly like a poorly played flute. I gave the flute back to the DC and left school.

      I knew it was time to go to Where the Wild Things Are. I was not exited at all about this task, but I needed to get it done to not break my eleven month streak.

      I entered a building and saw some dream characters. I had no idea how to get to this place, so I asked for assistance. A dream character told me that if I entered "over there" I could get to it. He was pointing at a small wine refrigerator. I shrunk my self and started to walk inside the refrigerator, but I could not go further the wall. I complain it was not working. I was advised to push the wall so it could move.

      I started to walk by the wall and I started to push it. After a few moments, it started to move until I saw a hole. I went to a room that was all brown. It was like a big maze. I figured if I flew through the maze, I would get to Where the Wild Thing are. I saw a portal at the end of the maze and felt a little bothered, as I could have opened one from the very beginning. I walk through it and I appeared in a place where there was a big black ape with a ring on its nose. I did not read this book so I had no idea what to do, their names or whatever.

      I asked the Ape to be escorted to my palace. The Ape told me, "Your palace?" I agreed. The Ape was confused and I told him, "I am supposed to become your king." The Ape told me that I had to kill the actual king. I told him that was not an issue.

      We arrived to the palace and I saw... King Arthur from the Merlin movie (WTF) He was in his kid's form, and he had his crown next to him, because his head was too small.







      Merlin was not around, which I was happy, as fighting a Magician would be more of an issue. I opened my hand and created a blast. A purple ball with small lighting appeared and launched towards Arthur's. He disintegrated, including the Crown and the Throne. I told the Ape, "So, am I king, right?" He said yes, I was. A few weird monsters appeared from no where and said, "Hail the king!" I figured I succeeded the ToTM and I decided to get out of there.

      I started to fly away from this place when suddenly, I woke up.
