    1. Invulnerable Reaper, School, and Other Adventures

      by , 08-19-2014 at 03:28 PM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I was inside of some very large house. Inside of it, the interior was quite relaxing. The floor was made of wooden panels, and the walls were painted white. All around me there were fancy decorations. This house, or whatever it was, had many rooms as well, and the whole design of everything gave a very open feeling to whoever was in it. I started walking around casually, just doing my own thing. There were other people here as well, most of them adults, and they too were just walking around looking at things.
      I came to the dining table, which was in the middle of this vast home. It was a smooth creamy brown in color, and looked as though it could seat 18 people. 8 people on each side, and 1 person on each end. I kept on walking and soon found myself near the basement of this house(not sure what it was, but I'm assuming it was a basement). Suddenly the atmosphere around me got darker, and so did my vision in a sense. Everything got really quiet, but it was more of an uncomfortable, creepy, quiet. I crouched down and stopped to listen for a second. I couldn't hear anything, it was dead quiet.
      I turned a corner and looked down what I thought was an abandoned hallway, and as I did, I saw some guy that looked pretty evil. I took a second glance to see him better, and it was a Reaper. It had the hood on, the robes, and everything, except it looked as real as real could be. This reaper was just standing there, motionless, and didn't make a single noise. Next to him, there were alot of boxes filled with really cool stuff, or at least, what I thought was cool when I was in the dream. I saw things such as wire cutters, and there were alot of boxes like those. I remember reading off of one box in particular, the words "200x wire cutter".
      I kept my eyes on that box, and slowly dragged it towards me. The reaper spoke, "I'm going to have to kill you for that". He started moving slowly towards me, maybe moving at the speed of 1 inch per second. I looked around and saw another box that interested me, I don't remember what it was though. I took this box as well, and this made the Reaper mad. "Thank you, now I can walk at full speed". With this, he started walking really fast towards me. I grabbed the stuff I had just stolen and started fast walking away, I didn't want to start a scene.
      Suddenly, the Reaper shape-shifted into a random guy. He did this multiple times, and now I could not tell who he was. I quickly pulled out my phone, but as I did, I dropped it onto the floor. I picked it up and scrolled through my phone, looking for a certain application that would allow me to see who the Reaper had shape-shifted into. As I opened the app, it activated my phone's front camera. I aimed the camera behind me and the camera recognized the Reaper and made his entire body glow orange on the camera screen. I now knew who the Reaper was.
      I remember walking past the diner table and almost tripping. The Reaper continued fast walking towards me, but I could easily out run him if I wanted to. I don't remember anything else of this dream.

      2. I was somewhere outside, next to a warehouse with my friends. We were all inside of a small, compact red car, and my friend Trey was driving us. We parked next to this warehouse and Trey got out to do something. I got out of the passenger seat in the back, as I was sitting in the back left seat. Once I got out of the car, I decided that I wanted to drive, so I got in the driver seat. I remember putting my foot on the brake pedal just to get the feel of it, and both the brake pedal and the accelerator were extremely close to me.
      My legs were bent at more than a 45 degree angle and I felt really crowded and smushed, I ad barely any room to move. Only a minute after I got in the driver seat, my friend Trey came back and told me to get out. I got out and went back to my seat, but to my surprise, Trey wasn't driving this time, my other friend Patrick was. Patrick got in the driver seat and once we were all ready to go, he took a left into the parking lot directly to the left of us.
      After only a few seconds of driving into one of the parking lot rows, Patrick stopped. I was wondering why he had stopped, and I looked to our left and saw a middle-aged lady and her son and daughter. As the lady passed in front of our car to get to the right side of the parking lot row, patrick rolled down his window and said, "Hey look, it's Matthew's mom!". She was passing the driver window as he said this, and she gave us a weird look. We all watched her to see which car she got in. When she arrived next to her car, I saw Matthew Vasquez and thought, "Wow, Patrick was right, that was Matthew's mom". I watched as Matthew opened the passenger seat door and got in. His little sister got in the back seat.
      As Matthew's mom and everyone else got into the car Patrick said, "Dude guys, holy crap we're going to be late! It's going to take us 30 minutes to get there!". I'm not sure what he was talking about, but I'm assuming he meant 30 minutes until we would arrive at school. He started driving again, and I remember looking out the window and seeing the partly cloudy blue sky. It was bright outside, and I felt very relaxed.

      3. I was in SkyZone, an indoor trampoline place. I was on an orange trampoline, and there were 3 other orange trampolines around me. I remember the one I was jumping on was very narrow and small. The trampoline was about 10 feet in the air, I'm assuming supported by stilts or something. I started jumping and felt really uncomfortable because of the size of the trampoline, I thought I was going to fall off. There was an employee standing next to me on my right, and he kept telling me, "Don't worry about it. Just keep jumping, you're not going to fall". I didn't trust myself.
      I looked to my left, and standing on the ground was my dad, cheering me on. I decided that I had nothing to loose and I started jumping. At first, I didn't get much air because I was jumping on the side of the trampoline, where it doesn't produce as much lift, but eventually I moved to the middle of it and started gaining alot of air. I jumped like this for a minute or so. I found out that this trampoline that I was jumping on, was the beginning of an obstacle course.
      The employee next to me told me to move on towards the next obstacle. I found myself jumping towards a platform that was about 30 feet in the air, and I had to jump really high to land on it. The platform was really small, and it was yellow in color and was outlined in red. Another employee was waiting for me and cheering me on on top of the platform. I got another good look at it, and found out that it was slanted at about 45 degrees. How was I supposed to make this without falling. The employee on the platform yelled out to me, "Come on, you can do it! When you get up here, grab on to the two yellow handles".
      I finally got enough air and made a final big jump on the trampoline I was on. I lifted off into the air like a bird and found myself landing perfectly on the platform. I quickly grabbed onto the two yellow handles that I was supposed to. What the employee didn't tell me, was that when you landed on the platform, it starts to shake violently- and I mean violently. I struggled to hold on, it was like I was riding some sort of electric bull ride. I kept a tight grip however, and soon the platform stopped shaking as much as it did.
      The employee with me on the platform told me to climb up and jump into the slide next to me, which was still 30 feet in the air. I climbed on top of the platform and gained my balance. I thought about what I was going to do next, jumping into a slide seemed pretty intense, especially since the slide was shaking even more violently than the platform. It was even twirling around and doing 360's. I waited for the right moment, and then I jumped towards the slide. I fell in through the entrance of the slide, and started sliding down.
      I found myself tumbling and slamming into the walls of the slide, considering the fact that it was still twirling and such. Luckily, the slide walls were soft because the slide itself was inflated just like how jump houses are. I flipped over and rolled inside of the slide for a few more seconds, and finally I made it to the bottom and got out. I looked around and noticed that I had finished the obstacle course and was now on the ground, standing on a soft but firm black mat. I looked in front of me and saw my dad and greeted him.

      4. I was inside of a school. I was walking down a hallway, and everything seemed pretty normal. Students all around me walked to wherever they were going, and I did the same. I looked around me and saw yellows walls around inside this school, it felt very new. As I was walking to my class, I saw my old teacher from my freshman year, Mr. Molitoriss. He looked exactly the same as did 2 years ago, except for the fact that he had long hair now that reached his shoulders.
      As a group of students in front of me neared him, they greeted him. "Hey Mr. Molitoriss!", they said. He greeted them all back. Eventually I passed Mr Molitoriss, and as I did, I too greeted him, "Hey Mr. Molitoriss!". "I'm sorry, but I don't remember you", he told me(which is weird because we were really chill when I was in his class). This cut me deep inside, and I felt very embarrassed. I continued walking down that same hall to get to my class, it was the last class at the end of this hallway and was on the left. When I made it into class, I went to my seat and sat down.
      As I did so, I looked on my desk and saw a piece of manila paper that had been folded many times. The paper was about some project that we were starting in the class, and written on it were 3 names. One of the names on it was "Jenny". When I read that name I remember thinking to myself, "Wow, now I'll finally get to talk to her, it might be a little awkward though". I had wanted to talk to this girl before somewhere, but not sure why. One of the other names was "Brad", and as for the last name, I don't remember it. Each one of these names was written in a different color in crayola, and I remember that "Jenny" was written in red crayola.
      I continued reading the paper, and below those 3 names was the word "Lunch" written in a bright yellow orange crayon, and it was a little sloppy. Suddenly, the teacher came into our class, it was Mr. Molitoriss. I decided to forget what had happened back in the hallway, and view him as a new teacher and start fresh. He began talking about the project and basically elaborated and explained it in greater detail.
      Later on after class, I remember sitting on a bench against a wall in the main hallway, right next to the hallway where my class was. My mom was sitting next to me. Now, the atmosphere in this school seemed rather dark. It looked as though all of the lights were off in the school, but they weren't. Around me I could still see alot of students minding their own business, and going on their way to their classes. Right now everything was really busy.
      I looked far ahead in front of me and saw a system of stairs, set up in a spiral. Many students were ascending and descending through it. Out of no where, a whole group of choir students walked right in front of me. My mom got up and followed them, so I got up and followed them as well. They were all wearing dark green outfits that closely resembled graduation outfits in their style. As we followed them, they walked into a room not far from where we were sitting, and the room was very long in length. Inside, the floor was covered in a gray carpet, and on the left and right walls, lockers covered the entire surface.
      I told my mom that we really had no reason to be in here, and that we should leave right now. With that, we both left the room.

      5. I was banging some black chick, and started eating her out. She tasted kind of weird so I wanted to stop, but I kept going anyway. (fragment)

      6. I was in a big school cafeteria and the lights were off. It was almost completely empty inside except for me, my mom, and my dad, and a few other people. Me and my parents were sitting by a couple of vending machines. My mom got up and bought a few slim jims out of the machine and gave me some. She had bought four of them so she gave me 2. I opened the sticks up and started eating them. The taste was really vivid, and I remember feeling the juiciness of the Slim Jim's themselves when I bit into them.
      My dad had brought over another bigger piece of beef jerky, but it wasn't a stick. It was about an inch in width and about 6 inches in length. I asked my dad if I could look at it for a second, and he handed it to me. I looked at the beef jerky, it looked pretty normal. I turned it around and looked at the Nutrients section. I remember specifically checking out the sodium level in it, and it had 990 mg of sodium. This shocked me. 990 mg of sodium in this small of a stick of beef jerky? It didn't make sense.
      My mom got some kind of candy from the vending machines as well. I don't remember anything else after this.

      7. I was just chilling in my room, and my lights were off. I was only wearing my boxers and was making my bed. My bed was on my right wall as soon as you walk into my room(its usually in the middle of my room). As I was making my bed I heard my sister open my door behind me. I looked at her and saw that she had barely cracked open the door and she was staring at me. I got really mad and told her to go away and that she was really annoying.
      She asked why and started explaining about how she didn't do anything. I was so mad that I didn't even care, and just wanted her to go away. After she went away, I closed my door shut completely and laid down on my bed. I was still half naked, and I just continued chilling.

      8. I was downstairs in what seemed like my house. I was with my friends Dylan and Trey, and an 8th grader that lives down the block from me was also with us. For some reason, my restroom downstairs was now located right next to the dining table and I was about to go inside. I looked at Jack and noticed that he had a can of blue spray in his hands. I thought nothing of this at the moment.
      Not a minute after I decided to ignore him, he came behind me and sprayed the blue spray on the back of my hair. I got really pissed and called him a mother F*****. I was really mad. Jack then when into the restroom next to us. I too went into the exact same restroom and Dylan followed me. It was really nice inside, and the floor was made of smooth tan tiles, and the walls matched them. On each side of the restroom, there was a shower. Each shower was about 6 yards in length and had a white shower curtain covering it.
      As I entered this restroom, I went to the sink and started brushing my teeth. As I was doing so I heard the sound of water running. I stopped and listened for a second and realized that Jack was taking a shower in the shower directly to the right of me. I found this a little weird, but kept brushing my teeth anyway. Suddenly my mouth started feeling extremely dry, and I was having trouble swallowing. The dream then ended and I woke up and found that I had been sleeping with my mouth open and that my mouth was painfully dry. It even hurt to swallow.

    2. Sex in my Room

      2300-0700

      1. I was in my room with a girl. She was pretty hot. I had hot sex with her for quite a while. It was pretty vivid. It was with someone who looked like L, but she had lighter skin.

      2. I remember being in my bed, masturbating. Pretty much a false awakening, where I didn't wake and instead just masturbated and went to sleep.

    3. Demon Baby is Born

      by , 08-19-2014 at 05:13 AM (Schmaven's Dream Journal of Randomness)
      Locked in a small, very dark room with my wife; I am assisting in her giving birth. All sorts of demonic shadows appear all over the wall. Ridiculous faces, ghosts, figures, and everything terrifying I can imagine appears in shadow form on the walls. Clouds of smoke and mist also briefly pass by out of no where. Just obscuring everything, and then gone a few seconds later. My wife and I suspect that she is giving birth to a demon baby. I am a little concerned about what the neighbors are thinking if they can see these shadows too.

      The baby is born, and already has fierce teeth, a crazy look on his face, and solid, black eyes. Growling, it tries to bite both of us. I grab the umbilical cord, and swing it off my wife from there, dodging his fangs as he flies past me. While trying to swing him in circles above our heads to buy some time, he kicks a wall, causing him to fly toward me and land on my right arm. Before he can sink his teeth into me, I grab him by the back of the head with my left hand, pull him off, then grab his body with my right and just squeeze. This causes the umbilical cord to disconnect from him, and is really gross. Black liquid squirts out of it, and I jump back, losing grip on the demon baby. I feel my stomach turn to knots as he jumps down to the floor.

      He runs around the room, free from my grasp, but still contained inside the room for now. Literally running really fast, while growling, and even jumping higher than I am tall, he chomps his teeth together like a dog, making loud biting noises. My wife and I skootch back on the bead some more as he jumps up next to it, biting the air, and looking at us. He seems to enjoy scaring us with his powerful jaws...

      The next jump, I catch him, and try to kill this demon with a knife. But due to some dark magic, any knife wound immediately heals itself. Struggling to hang onto this creature, I grab a small axe that is hanging on the wall and sever the menacing head from the red veiny body. The demon dissolves into sparks and dust, crumbling to small ashes and then vanishing back out of this world.

      I sit back down on the bed, enjoying the brief peacefulness of the aftermath.
    4. Graveyard Class Room (19.8.14)

      by , 08-19-2014 at 03:26 AM (CHiLLEN's Dream Journal)
      Dream - 7:40AM

      I'm on the basketball court at Range bank. I see the ball go over the small fence and decide to chase it down. I hurdle over the fence and start running at full pace. I see two DC's in the distance. I don't retrieve the ball and begin to make my way back to somewhere. The journey back is a strange one. I'm walking on a tight and narrow path, which is 2 - 3 meters off of the ground. I walk through an area which has grave stones.

      I reach where I was destined to go, which was a class room. I see people around me and a teacher at the front of class, next to a whiteboard. The location changes to where the grave stones were, but we're still continuing what we were doing. I see the DC from earlier when I was chasing the ball. I call him out and ask if that was him I saw. The teacher says it was.
      The convocation turns to spiritual and god. I take charge of the convocation and debate a few things, explaining something about out of body experiences. I was going to mention that I have had them before but never get around to it. Instead of talking, I'm explaining some things via text which is coming up on the whiteboard. I have a mind blank after a paragraph of writing and struggle to think about what to type next. I can see people getting angry due to waiting for me to finish writing. They're expressing their anger through a chat box which is under what I was writing.

      False Awakening: (MISSED)

      I'm recording my previous dream in a dream. I'm underneath the covers, trying to keep my eyes from seeing too much light as I may wake myself up too much to get back to sleep. I'm using my phone?? as a recorder. I play it back to myself and it definitely sounds like me. I expected it to not record too well, due to whispering into the device. At one point I move the device away from my house and down towards my hips. While still listening to my recording I can see myself on the screen, as if it was a video recording, not a voice recording. I waited for the moment where I moved the device away from my mouth to see if I could still be heard. I could still hear myself, except there was a few silent moments due to thinking of what to say next.

      Surprised I missed my chance, as I've been performing RC's upon awakening majority of the times.

    5. Red Room, Blue Room, Ugly Marilyn

      by , 08-19-2014 at 02:44 AM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      This lucid dream is a part of a study with University of Missouri St. Louis conducted by SleepingSYNAPSE.
      http://www.dreamviews.com/research/1...ticipants.html
      I had to the opportunity to visit the campus and examine a room (Red) in waking life and revisit it in a lucid dream to measure dream memory. I was unaware of the other room (Blue) as being apart of the study and I found that I had very little waking memory of it.

      SleepingSYNAPSE, I am including additional info that may not be in the packet as well as this more thorough account of the dreams. Yes, dreams. I actually had a hard WILD before the more successful but the first yielded undesirable outcomes. I didn't have the extra papers for two dreams so I recorded the better of the two. Still, I think you will be interested in reading both here.

      On a more personal note, thanks for meeting with me on a Saturday and for the good times we enjoyed afterward. I was hesitant meeting a stranger in a big city, but I feel I have gained a friend. You are a good person. Your hospitality was appreciated by my wife and I.

      Pre-bed Supplements: A shot of cherry flavored vodka in a small juice glass with Coke.
      Bedtime: 9PM
      WBTB time/length: 1:00AM / 3min
      WBTB Supplements: 8mg Galantamine, 400mg Choline, cold pre-made mug of peppermint tea/4 bags (menthol)



      #354 - WILD - 2:10AM


      I enjoy a smooth WILD but enter a very unstable world. I do my usual dash for the front door and make it outside. I feel I need to rush to get the task done so I move quickly. I decide to "Hulk Jump" in the general direction of my goal.

      When I visited the university in waking life, I took careful note of the building's exterior. There is a nice park there with a pond. I had decided beforehand to make that my landing site since it is a unique feature of the campus.

      I make a giant leap over some trees and land in Bug Lake at the university with a splash. There are no physical feelings here; just the sound. I have some dark void issues so I splash around with my arms to stabilize as I think of the interior of the building.

      I am now in a hallway, but it doesn't look like I recall. The walls are colored like some sort of abstract mural painting. Grass and sky? The dream crashes.

      DEILD - I have some floating sleep paralysis sensations for a full minute or two.

      I visualize and re-enter the hallways. I see something like an "under the sea painting" on the walls. There are way too many rooms and I feel lost. I really focus on finding the Red Room and eventually find a door that looks close enough. The dream is still really unstable as I enter the room. It's dark inside and I think to feel for a light switch but I know this almost never works.
      I feel like I am in the void again so I focus on seeing.

      When the lights come on, I see that I am in an empty and really tiny version of the room. I stretch my arms out and my hands touch adjacent walls. I wake up and think to DEILD but for some reason the dream felt really long so I decide to journal instead.


      #355 - DILD (In-dream-WILD) - 3:16AM

      After the first dream, I tried to WILD and again and thought I had done it but I later recall other things that happened first.

      There was something about being worried about alarm clocks. I was afraid of it getting too late to get lucid and having to wake up. I look at the clock and see that its about 4:4[?]... almost 5am (Wake up time). I have a really hard time making out the last digit. It gets blurry and morphs a little. I recognize what is happening here and lay back down to complete my WILD efforts.

      After a second and some SP sensations, I realize there is no need to still be laying here so I quickly get out of bed. I notice I am in my childhood home of Luling, TX. I find this annoying and try to imagine being at the university again. I look down as I walk and try to visualize some common tiling or an imagined version of what I think may have been the flooring at the university. I see some generic brown speckled tiling but I am still in the same house. I try to deny it, but I just can't make it change over. Time for plan B.

      I go to the front door and have to actually unlock the dead bolt to get the door open. I recall the conversation with SleepingSYNAPSE about the guy that had a semi-lucid dream where he locked his wallet in the house and thought to summon the keys but not the wallet. This felt equally dumb, but I let the thought go as I start down the sidewalk.

      At the end, there is a dark colored compact car running with headlights on. It's dark but when I get to the car, I see Jeremy B, from work sitting in the driver's seat. I recall how this scenario worked well for the Angel Falls Task Of The Year and get really excited. I look into the open window on the passenger side and Jeremy says something that I perceive to be really dorky but mildly funny (much like waking life). I think I may have found an intelligent and somewhat witty DC, but I am not sure what he said so I ask.
      He stares at me like I am the dumb one for a second then says, "Oh nevermind. Just get in."
      When I sit down in the passenger seat, I find myself teleported to the driver seat. Jeremy is now standing in the street peering in the open window on the driver side. Without a word he plugs his nose and jumps feet first into the blackness of the street as if it is deep water. Seeing him do this seems extremely cheesy and bizarre. I chuckle and say, "Well... Ooookay. Thanks."

      I drive to the end of the block and make a right. As I do, use expectation to believe that the part of the university I want is on the next block. That would be the direction of my old high school in waking life so this allows an easy connection in my mind. The building looms just ahead in the night. There are the scattered trees with Bug Lake to the right. I grip the steering wheel for the first time... or maybe I just pull back on it like airplane controls, but I will the car to fly to a window, second from the top story. I don't bother counting floors this just feels right and I know it's all what I want to believe anyway. It's the fourth floor in waking life.

      As I am about to crash through a large window, everything seems very much like something from a Harry Potter movie. A suit of armor spies me through a whimsical-style, barred window and runs out of the way. I phase the car more than crash and I see a Filch-look-a-like just outside of the room. Any other time this would have been freaking awesome as I have a "Patronus" goal in mind for the future, but at this moment I am very focused on the task. I dismiss the oddities without a second thought. Actually, I am more worried about the interior being too dark. The room has red carpet and looks vaguely medieval with gas wall sconces on either side of an open door giving very little light. However, the hallway that Filch was meandering down is brightly lit.

      As I phase out the driver side door of the car, I feel the entire thing dissolve. I have desire to look at the effect, but decide that I better not, just in case I ruin the effect. Plus, I feel I am much cooler this way. I feel like some grand wizard doing amazing things, but not being particularity impressed with himself. Mastery. I leave the room in search of the rooms.

      I spend what feels like a lot of time lost in a maze of hallways until I find the main room of the study. I really can't recall much here, but I thinking it was mostly garbage imagery anyway.

      Now, I am in a strong and fairly accurate representation of the main room. I see a red door on the left and a blue door and the right. There is a counter and a hood vent on the other side. As I grab the door knob to open the red door, I have a feeling of anticipation. I note how very vivid the dream is and I feel pleased.

      Inside, the room is disappointingly very much empty, but it's at least the correct size this time. The first thing I note is that the shelves to the left are gone so this excludes several items. There is no digital painting in front of me. The desk and end table are gone. The walls are a pea green and this seems right. I recall a something sleepingSYNAPSE told me in waking life. When he dreams of his house he notices what things are missing or incorrect. I feel the same way about this room and begin copying what he said he did in his dreams. I point to the things mentioned and say stuff like, "That's wrong. This is gone. That's not right. This should be there."

      Something catches my eye. Where the large poster of the blond white woman should be, I see a very different one in it's place. It's really blurry and watery so I step closer to take a near-sighted examination of the picture. After a moment, it clears. The face is blurry but I see an African American man wearing a blue graduation gown, standing with his arm up in triumph. There is a mock diploma in his right hand and a huge grin on his face. I get the feeling this is some sort of lame university advertisement. There is some large black lettering on the bottom but I have already lost interest. Suddenly, I remember the last object to look for. CLOCK!

      I turn around and see it where is should be to the left of the door way, overlapping the trim. At first the numbers look Roman but as I get closer, still having some slight nearsightedness, the numbers look Arabic. I recall there is a time question on the sheet in waking life so I take note. The hour hand is on the 6 and the minute hand is one the 7. No, there is an 8 where the 7 should be. I will it to be a 7 but the number really wants to be an 8 and there is a type of tug-o-war with it seeming to morph into an 8 on its own as I struggle to keep it a 7. I decide this little detail probably doesn't matter since I recall the waking life time to be 6:15. I try to think what the time actually is here but I quickly realize that I can't even begin to think about how to read the clock so I just make note of the hand locations one last time and then step out of the room.

      Feeling somewhat accomplished and a little surprised that the dream is still going, I am ready for the Blue Room. When I step back into the Main Room, I notice there are a few changes. Mostly, there is now an extra blue door and instead of having a large pill-shaped covering, they are now entirely covered in blue construction paper. In fact, it all looks gift-wrapped. I start to go for the extra door but it feels wrong and there is some instability so I decide to go for the more correctly located door.

      When I open the Blue Room I am surprised to see a vast bedroom with blue walls and white trim. The style is sort of Victorian with 3 twin beds and a dark wood chest of drawers. There is a large mirror mounted on top with something like a wash basin. It seems like there was a dark colored rug on the floor but I may be be recalling that wrong at this point. I feel shocked and confused so I step back out into the main room not really noting anything there and then back in. The room is basically the same but there is a sense that the furniture has moved slightly.

      At this point I pretty much forget the University task as I feel this part of the dream has played itself out. Not really recalling any secondary goals, I start messing around with the dreamscape on impulse. I walk around the room and come to a very low light fixture about chest level with 3 or so unlit bulbs. I recall a scene from Oculus where Karen Gillian thinks she eats a light bulb while thinking it's an apple when it actually is an apple (Yes this movie is that weird). So, I decide to try eating a light bulb as I know I won't cut myself like she did (or thought she did) in the movie. I think to unscrew the bulb but decide that is too much work and I just pull. It resists a little put easily pops free. I put the entire fat end in my mouth and look in the mirror. My lips are distorted from the effort but I notice I look even more strange than that. My features resemble River Song from Doctor Who but with shorter hair and a melding of my waking life facial features and hers. I stare at this for a few seconds trying to will myself to look right but it's not working very well. I remember the light bulb and decide to chop down. I am surprise when I feel like I am biting into a plastic ball-pit ball. I spit it out and step away from the mirror.

      At this point, I think menthol starts having it's adverse (or desired as some see it) effect. It seems like a really good idea to reward myself for having put so much effort into this dream experiment. I recall how I did something similar for the Cretaceous Period Task Of The Month awhile back and start searching the beds for a female companion.


      Before I go on, I think I need to explain something. I visited SleepinSYNAPSE's father's restaurant in waking life while in St. Louis (Very nice place and awesome food!). In the men's restroom there were several posters of vintage female movie stars. The one that caught my attention the most is this classic image of Marylin Monroe's Breakfast In Bed.


      Solipsism-marilyn_monroe-naked.jpg

      Almost immediately, I find her in a sheet with one leg out. I don't think of her as MM but I'm not really concerned with the face. I know it's a dream and it's all not real. However, during the act, I do happen to take a look at the face and notice a very ugly version of MM. The hair was right but the face was very distorted. I pause for a second, unsure if I want to continue but I decide to just focus on other parts as I quickly finish up.

      I decide that this dream has gone on long enough and I should wake myself before I forget all the details. I fall into the void but don't wake right way. I realize what is happening and struggle to shift back to the physical. I have images of making dream notes on my Galaxy Player, but I know this is false. I hit SP but instead of struggling to move the dream body I am doing the opposite until I reenter the physical. The effect was like a reverse WILD or reverse OBE... Very strange.

    6. Messed up dreams

      by , 08-19-2014 at 02:09 AM (Just Another Dream Journal)
      In one, I found the body of a childhood friend hanged in a room of my parents house. He killed himself because he discovered that the world was going to end violently and painfully one day at 8:00. I spent the rest of that dream investigating what he had learned. It seems "witches" were to wake up within people and they'd emerge hungry. I went into the secret basement I often dream about. But it was a different one than usual. There were gears under the ground in this one. If I stopped the gears, I'd stop the madness. But just as I discovered them, they kicked on, and with it a furnace and the door was sealed behind me. I was trapped to slowly burn or starve to death. I thought my friend had the right idea and wondered how I could myself.

      I woke from that dream and had another with a similar theme. I don't remember it as vividly, other than silence descending on the world as I saw a wave of energy roll over the surface of land masses and kill everything in its path. It wasn't violent though. It was almost beautiful. It was a silence.
      But then the dream changed and I was in a plane, trying to blow out the back (where the propeller was lol) so I'd be sucked into the sky. Just as I finished disassembling everything, the plane landed and I quickly covered my tracks so I could try again on the way back home.
      At some point, 3 dogs were called by the owner (once on the ground somewhere) so I could take them with me. Being sucked out of the plane would somehow save us from something. I told the guy I wouldn't have time to go into the cargo hold to find them, but he said now-a-days he can just buy tickets for them and they could ride beside him (they were large dogs)

      At some other point, I wrote a letter to God. It was a group letter from a lot of different people. I don't remember what I wrote.

      What a bunch of weird dreams.

    7. (Nap Time) Inside of The Dream House and Dinner at Dylan's

      by , 08-18-2014 at 10:25 PM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I awoke out of my bed, my room was quite dark and there was a blue tint to everything. I got up and went to my closet to pick out a shirt to put on. As I was doing so, I looked back for a second and saw that my T.V. was on, and so was my old xbox. I thought nothing of it and continued to look for a shirt to put on. I found one and slipped it on. I think I remember putting on some shorts as well. After getting dressed, I left my room and looked at my parent's bedroom to see if they were asleep. They were, and as I looked at their doors I noticed that they were around 15 feet tall and had a purple outline around them.
      The entrance to their bedroom was huge, but I continued on my way. I made a quick glimpse into my sisters room just because, and saw that the extra door was there. I then went into the spare bedroom of my house and saw my sister playing on her laptop. I asked her, "Hey do you want to go see whats inside of that extra door?". She said no, and that it scared her, so I went by myself. I walked into her room, and it had the same atmosphere as mine; really dark but everything had a blue tint to it. I looked to the far right corner of her room and saw the door(In previous dreams, this door always acted as an extension to another part of my house that I had never been to, and it was huge).
      I opened the door and went inside. It was like a completely different house, and as usual, always gave off a creepy feeling. The lights were off in this entire other part of the house, so everything was really dark and had the same atmosphere as my room as well. I remember looking down into the downstairs section of this "extension" that no one in my family ever goes to. As I passed a corner, I saw my grandma. She rushed over to me and said, "What are you doing here? You need to get out of here right now", in a quiet but frantic voice.
      I didn't know what she meant by "here", I hardly even know what this place is. I don't remember the rest of the dream.

      2. I was with my dad near a freeway and I was driving some kind of weird car. The body of this car was a wooden platform with rounded edges. I was controlling it by remote I believe. As I was showing the "car" off to my dad, I crashed it into a wall and the car flipped but landed right side up. I continued driving, but this time I started driving in the direction of our house. It was night time outside, and the sky was clear.
      As I kept on driving, I saw a huge ramp ahead of me, and some guy was working on it. The ramp was pretty big, and had a steep incline. It was red, black, and white in color, and I could tell that It wasn't completely finished. I sped up and decided that I was going to go for the jump anyways. Just as I came up on it and was about to go up the ramp, the guy working on it took away the main ramp part and I ended up just crashing into the foundation of it.
      I "got out" of my car infuriated(even though I wasn't even inside of it in the first place) and ran after the guy that messed up my jump. He ran into his house which was right next to the ramp. I then proceeded to start running after a long-haired blonde dude nearby. He ran into his garage, and as he closed it I tried running in, but I couldn't. It was like there was an invisible wall blocking my path. I calmed down and looked around to see exactly where I was. I was on top of an apartment building. I walked down a small ramp walkway and got onto the ground.
      I walked around a corner and starting going down an alley. As I turned this corner, I saw a tall, lean sign. I jumped up into the air and held onto the top of it(no idea why I did this). After holding on for a few seconds, I let go and continued down the alley. It was still dark, and everything was really quiet. The alley I was walking through, led to some kind of gated, small, grassy park. Instantly as I entered the grounds of this park, a voice came out of no where saying, "Time to begin the baseball bat rivalry!", or something along those lines. I was really confused. What was going on?
      I looked over to my right and saw a few kids standing and shouting, "Yeah! Woooo!". I became very cautious, not knowing what to expect. Then, on my left, I saw a mexican dude holding a baseball bat approaching me. "I'm going to beat you to a pulp boy", he told me. This wasn't fair, I had nothing to defend myself. As this guy got closer to me, I kept a close eye on him, watching his every move. Once I passed a tree near me, I stopped and waited for this dude. He came at me and swung at my body. Right in the middle of his swing however, I grabbed his bat and turned the tide.
      I really didn't think I would be able to do this, and I was really happy that I did. I approached this guy and swung at him. I hit him, and I continued doing this until he was on the ground. Once I saw that he was unconscious, I continued walking, trying to find a way out of this park. I looked to my left and saw an old man approaching me, and he too was armed with a baseball bat. I was still a little worried, but at least it was an even match. Once he got close to me, he swung. I blocked his swing with my bat, and started hitting him rapidly. I remember hitting him in the gut, but it didn't phase him.
      Unfortunately, I had to hit this old man in the head, and I did so. I felt really guilty, but then I remembered, I didn't chose to be a part of this "game". I picked up the old man's baseball bat and waited on who ever was next. By dual-wielding two baseball bats, I knew that I was going to make it out and survive. Just then, Brad pitt started approaching me, along with some random old lady that had no weapon. I looked up into the sky for a second and noticed that it was already daytime. Brad Pitt had an extremely tall bottle of golden liquor in his hands, and I knew that he was going to hit me with it. I got cornered against a fence, and Brad Pitt got closer to me, he swung. I blocked his swing and when he swung again, I snatched the tall liquor bottle out of his hands.
      The crowd that appeared around me roared in excitement. I had just won the "game". My friend Dylan had showed up out of no where and congratulated me. I opened the huge bottle of liquor that I took from Brad Pitt and took a really big gulp out of it. My god, the liquor was extremely strong and I could feel it burning in my throat. It burned more than any liquor I had ever drank before. I fell to the ground, wondering why I was stupid enough to take that big of a gulp out of the bottle. As I was on the ground, everything started feeling really hazy, and my throat was still burning.
      After everything calmed down, I got up off the ground and stood up. I looked around and now this park was packed with people. People were walking to and fro everywhere. I looked in front of me, and in the park was a piano. I went up to it and started playing it. It functioned perfectly like a normal piano should. I played a short song, and while I was doing so a group of kids started to watch me. Suddenly, my sister came up next to me and told me that I was, "playing it too fast". I told her that she didn't know what she was talking about, she's never played the piano before.
      All of the kids that were watching me, now came up to the piano and started playing it. I decided I was going to let them have some fun so I gave them more space by leaving the piano. As I walked away, my sister followed me. I started looking around for my dad, knowing that he must be around here somewhere. I walked around the park back into the alley, except, now the alley was some sort of public walkway and it had a flight of stairs that led down into a subway station. I saw my dad walking towards these stairs and he saw me. He motioned to me that he saw us and we started walking towards him. I then woke up.

      3. I was at the bus ramp at my high school. I was walking with a girl and we were talking about something. I don't remember what we were talking about, or who she was, but only that I felt that she had "distracted" me and almost made me miss my bus. I started sprinting towards the front of the bus ramp, looking for my bus. I looked around for the bus number 4020, but I couldn't find it. My friend Patrick showed up next to me and told me what bus he was looking for. His bus number was bus 4976, which coincidentally, is the last 4 digits of his cell phone number in real life.
      Patrick yelled, "Yes, I see my bus!", and started running towards it and got on. I decided that, because I couldn't find my bus, and that Patrick lives literally 10 houses down from me, that I was going to get on his bus and take it home. When I got on, everything was rather dark, and I sat in the seat next to Patrick. To my surprise, my friend Dylan was already on the bus as well. The bus started moving and we rode it home. Once we got to our stop, we all got off. Dylan invited me and Patrick to come over to his house for dinner, and we accepted.
      Once we got inside of Dylan's house, we walked over to the dinner table, except for now, his dining room was where his kitchen usually is in real life. We all sat down at the dinner table and waited. The atmosphere inside of his house was really cozy, and everything was really nice as usual. Dylan's mom soon came to the table and placed in front of us a tray of dipping sauces. There were many different sauces, and my friend Dylan took a pumpkin pie dipping sauce. I thought that what he got looked good, so I took the last pumpkin pie dipping sauce.
      My friend Patrick voiced his refusal to me and told me to give him the pumpkin sauce. I told him no, and that I was going to keep it and I even think I told him to "suck a nut", a phrase that we use commonly in waking life. Dylan's mom then sat down to the chair directly to the right of me. Dylan sat to the left of me, and Patrick sat at the right end of the table. Across from me, there were 2 random guys that none of us really knew. They were just sitting down, taking part in this dinner and yet they were unknown to us.
      Dylan's mom then handed out the meal of the night. "I've got something really good for you boys tonight," she told us. She then placed down a few napkins in the middle of the table and told us to dig in. Dylan grabbed one big napkin, and so did Patrick and I. The two guys across from us didn't have any napkins, and they just sat there. I looked to my left and saw Dylan ripping off small pieces of his napkin and dipping them into his pumpkin sauce. I only thought it normal to do the same, and it didn't seem odd or anything, so I got my napkin and started dipping it into my sauce.
      As I was doing so, I remembered the two guys across from me that had no napkin to eat. I ripped my napkin in half and was going to give them some. As I ripped my napkin, I ripped it really badly and the rip ended up being uneven, so I ripped part of it again so I split the entire napkin in half just to be fair, and gave it to the 2 guys. They told me something like, "Yeah that's right, give us some of your napkin". I looked a bit closer at these 2 guys and noticed that they looked very odd. The way they were dressed looked like they just came from Chicago in the winter season. They were dressed in heavy jackets and had some weird hats on.
      I continued eating my napkin and started a conversation with Dylan's mom. When I first started talking to her, she called me johnny or some name close to it. She then realized that she had called me by the wrong name, and started calling me Brad(still not my name). How did she keep getting my name wrong? I then looked over to my left and there was a small sign that had the names on it that she would call me. The names would change, and whenever they did, Dylan's mom would start calling me whatever was on the sign. This happened about 2 more times, and one of the other names she called me was "Bradley". (BTW, Dylan's mom knows me really well in waking life, so no idea why this happened).
      We continued to talk about something else, and I remember that I was about to tell Dylan's mom that she was "really feisty", but then it occurred to me that Dylan's dad might take that as some sort of sexual comment, so I didn't say it.

    8. 00:00 Monday 2014-08-18 Home Run! 4 LDs: #50, 51, 52, 53

      23:18 pre-bedtime 3mg melatonin
      00:00 Monday 2014-08-18

      04:00 alarm, 2 x 4mg Galantamind, 1x 300mg Choline Bitartrate, 1x 300mg Alpha-GPC, 1 large rye cracker, 1 banana, immediately back to bed

      (no recall, just vague impressions, not even fragments)

      05:00 still awake

      05-06? very stimulated, familiar body buzzing feeling on G + Ch, difficult to get mind to stay at rest, "relieve tension," BTB

      fall asleep somewhere around late 05? or perhaps 06?

      06??

      + I'm lucid sitting on a bus, feel unstable, turn around to my right and see a guy sitting in the seat behind me smoking, I grab a strap that runs vertically along his body with my right hand and hold it firmly and say to him, "NO SMOKING ON THE BUS!!". I'd like to stabilize and get deeper into the dream but I can't take my right hand away (like if I did the dream would end) and I can't reach the right hand with my left. I lose visuals and I'm holding both hands on the bar on top of the seat in front of me. The bus starts pitching up and down violently like a ship in tall ocean waves, I feel the bus pitch down sharply and my body lifts up off the seat, still holding on to the bar in front of me, I wonder if the bus is going to start flying into space.

      Transition: I'm now a DO flying above behind and to the right of a bus that's driving on a road. The world is a flat-shaded cartoon world: a lot is white, and it's very blocky. The bus turns left at an intersection and them pulls over to a building and stops. I call out "Hey are there any cartoon girls in there?" I see a little guy get off the bus and head in to the building, I follow him and call to him "are you going to show me your cartoon <ahem>?"


      + In a house, in front of a mirror, I pick up an electric toothbrush and turn it on. The sensation in my hand gives me an idea and I place the fairly strongly vibrating toothbrush in a NSFW way in several different positions looking for the best sensation.

      + (I may have been walking through my kitchen at one point). I have a shirt with a large red food stain on it, I feel generally kind of nervous/edgy. I'm outside my kitchen (on a patio?) looking down at my shirt every once in a while, when my friend MR appears in my kitchen looks at me picks something up in his hand and says "Hey <my name> why aren't you eating these pancakes?" I'm thinking those pancakes were cooked some while ago and may not be very clean. He takes a bite and says "pancakes are great for digging out cavities!"

      + colleague JT is holding a joint press statement with the police, they've found his kidnapped son after a long search, he's calling for leniency on the kidnapper -- his wife is hot and busty I see her topless with her arms over her head, get lucid, and enjoy the view and perhaps think about leaning in for some contact for a few seconds before waking up.

      + I'm standing in a hallway (feels like a house) and am immediately lucid. At the lucidity I notice the walls change from uncolored to colored in a modern color scheme: muted warm colored rectangles, smoky translucent glass arranged in patterns. I turn to my left and walk ahead slightly, my attention drawn by incredible colors and patterns. On a (bed?) in a room there I see a pile of cube-shaped pillows (about 4-6 inches on a side) that have a mixture of many different colors in various patterns (mostly straight/triangular lines). I'm astonished at the vivid colors and look at the scene for a few moment to make sure I can remember it. I remember TOTM basic (I) (foreign word) and turn back to where I started expecting to find some people. Just ahead I see the hallway open into a large open area and DCs are mulling around there. I walk up to one and try to say "tell me a foreign word and what it means," but I can barely open my mouth and can barely make any sound. I try again with another DC and the sounds are severely muted like trying to talk under water, the DC just walks away, I try once more and the DC looks at me with a quizzical "say that again?" look, and I slow down and try to speak very clearly. I think it comes out better and the DC answers something like "fribblety-splat". I repeat it back to make sure I heard it correctly. Then I ask her what it means, and she answers "the kakashka is in the F. U." Despite the success I go on to ask a few more DCs in the area and now I can speak clearly and freely. I'm eyeing some DC girls as they walk by, like one, then pick another (long curly blonde hair),
      Spoiler for NSFW explicit:
      I wake up.

      08:15?
      awake, recalling dreams, trying to get BTB, jerks are playing loud music outside somewhere

      09:10 ? receive phone call, stand up answer it

      Back to bed. I'm quite awake. Should I just get up for the day? NO! I feel I have at least one more LD in me and I'm probably still on the fumes from the G. Boy, I'm awake. OK, if you want it, you have to work for it. You've worked for this, you know what to do, DO IT!

      So I do counting breathing up to about 50, that's not helping much, the counting is keeping me too aware. Do my classic sleep kung-fu: on every exhale, sink deeper into relaxation, let EVERYTHING go: mental, physical tension, on EVERY breath, let more and more go, let everything go! And in a short while .... I sleep!

      + I'm lucid in super crowded indoor space like a bookstore. I don't remember anything before this moment of lucidity. YES made it, 4th LD!, Start to to stabilize by rubbing my hands, hey, ... why not rub that cute girl's butt instead? I reach for her butt but she somehow knows what I'm doing and scoots off away from me really fast, I decide not to chase, I think it's pretty funny! Wow this is crowded, mostly young people, cute girls, push past them through a doorway and turn to the left. OK, NOW it's time for a girl! Wait...no, stabilize! I stop and rub my hands, and pound my chest with my fists a few times. At the pounding a DC who was sitting down next to me is startled, and gets down on the ground and scuttles/runs away like an insect. She was wearing a dark/black burka, like a muslim. I thought that was sort of funny/weird. Ah ha, I want to carry a bottle of water with me to stabilize! I think I'm holding a bottle of water and look down at my hands. WOW TRIPPY, my hands and parts of my arms to the wrist are not fully rendered yet by my brain, it looks like I'm wearing black translucent long gloves with bright lines circling all over and sparkles all over them, then I see the "paint" of my skin color creep quickly into my hands. Looks like a computer graphics effect! I'm now holding an empty bottle of water. I will for it to be filled with water. Wait a minute, no, Beer! Be filled with Beer! I see it fill with liquid. I upend the bottle to take a drink with my head back and my mouth open, and a few modest sized splashes of water (darn didn't get beer) hit my tongue and the roof of my mouth at the back of my mouth, the sensation is entirely realistic. I move the water bottle to my left hand. I remember my goal of chewing dream gum to stabilize and stay in the dream, I reach my right hand into my right pants pocket expecting to get some gum there, I feel a lot of coins and something like a wrapper, I bring my hand out and see some coins and an empty wrapper, ah well. I walk forwards (back the way I came) and people are still everywhere, I see a petite girl sitting in a chair
      Spoiler for NSFW explicit:
      I wake up. I'm quite pleased that I got in my 4th lucid in one night, I'm really happy about this. I'm in a hallway in a large area and I look up and see a big analog clock and see that it shows 11 o'clock, wow I've slept quite late! Then I get a dream transition feeling and think "Hey maybe I can DEILD back in!", but I feel more awake, now I'm in bed, really awake, and realize I just missed a FA/transition to non-lucid, ARGH!

      10:20 now really awake

    9. Lisbeth, Weird Creatures, and other Adventures

      by , 08-18-2014 at 02:02 PM (One Up Seeker)
      Today, I got up 3 hours early, so I missed out on a big chunk of my REM sleep so I don't have as many dreams to record today.


      1. I was outside of my house, but in my driveway. There was a blanket laying on the ground, so I picked it up and looked at it. It was black, and it had detailed lettering all on the inside of it. Suddenly I felt an unusual presence behind me, like that of a ghost or some sort. Quickly I got under the black blanket and hid myself. I looked over to my back door and could see a blurry figure standing there.
      My fear grew as I lied on the ground. The blanket didn't fully cover me up, and I could tell that the ghost could see me(not usually scared of ghosts). I continued to try my best to fully cover myself under it, and this time, when I did, I saw something unusual. As I looked under the blanket at the lettering inside, the blanket began to tell me a story. This story was shown to me as some type of movie. In the movie, there was a man that was venturing across a vast desert, and it was specified to me that he was on a journey to get some kind of spiritual weapon.
      The movie ended and as it did I inspected the writing on the inside of the blanket a little closer. I started to read the blanket and for some reason it terrified me. The blanket talked about god(im not religious, no offense to anyone else though) and how he was going to destroy all of those that opposed him. Some time later, I got up out of the blanket. I walked down to the front of my driveway and saw 3 of my close friends; Patrick, Dylan, and Trey.
      "What are you guys doing?", I asked. They all replied, "Dude we're just chilling". I was pretty bored at the moment, so I didn't want to chill, besides, "chilling" to them was just sitting in a chair all day long doing nothing. They continued doing this, so I walked around some more. As I walked to the complete end of my driveway, I saw that I was not at my house. The house had changed, and now I was walking on the driveway of my friend Patrick's house.
      It didn't phase me that I had just transported, so I just kept walking around. I looked up at the sky and it was a soft, ocean blue. The texture of the clouds stood out to me and looked really smooth and swirly. I looked back at the ground and on the driveway I saw 3 blue arrows pointing to the end of the driveway. I was wondering about who put them there, and then I "remembered" that Patrick's dad had painted those arrows on. There was one arrow on each side of the driveway, and one arrow in the middle. I remember walking back up the driveway again and stopping at the edge of Patrick's house. Something had caught my attention, but I don't remember what it was.

      2. I was in some sort of weird dimension/video game, not sure what it was. The graphics in this place were like that out of a video game. I was with my friend Dylan, and we were in a cave that had an all brown interior. "Dylan, what is this place?", I asked. "Don't worry dude, I know what I'm doing, just follow my lead", he replied. I looked and noticed that Dylan had some kind of staff in his hand, it was a dull golden color and it had a ball of blue energy at the top of it. Dylan handed me the staff and we continued walking.
      As we did so, and turned a corner, I was confronted by some 7 foot tall beast creature. I can't describe it because I have never seen anything like it before. It kind of resembled a gorilla, body wise, but looked nothing of the sort in the face. Its body was white and transparent as though it were a ghost. It was wearing transparent armor as well. Then it came to me, Dylan had said that these things were some type of spirit warriors, but the evil ones.
      I shot this creature with my staff, and it died. I looked behind me and Dylan was gone. I turned around and walked back to where we first started and looked for him. The entire cave was giving off a really creepy vibe. Everything inside of this cave was covered in a thick layer of dirt. I came to the area where the dream began, but no one was there. My only choice now was to turn around a continue on, and that's what I did.
      Immediately as I turned around, I was encountered by another one of those spirit warrior creatures. I shot him with my staff, but it didn't phase him. "This isn't good", I thought to myself. Then, I heard Dylan again, he was telling me to shoot it again. I shot the creature again, but it did nothing. Dylan then told me that I needed to get away from the creature right now, because he couldn't be killed(BTW I could only hear Dylan's voice, it was like he was talking to me through my mind). I ran away from this creature, only focused on trying to get away from it now.
      I ran deeper into the cave, and all of a sudden my environment changed. Now I found myself in some sort of room. The walls were yellow and green, and I was with my friends again, along with a few other people I knew from school. The atmosphere of this place was that of an indoor fun house filled with inflatable slides and things as such. I talked to my friends and asked them what was going on. "Dude Adidas is about to release 3 pairs of their new shoes", Dylan told me. Patrick and Trey, who were right next to him, agreed.
      Suddenly, 3 green containers emerged out of a wall behind my friends. We all went up to them. These were the boxes that Adidas was giving away. My friends got 2 boxes, and I grabbed the one in the middle. The boxes had a 3 toed paw on the top of it that was also green, along with a timer that showed how long one had to wait until the box could be opened. My friends tried opening their boxes now, and they tried pulling apart the box completely, but the box wouldn't open. It was like it was indestructible, and tamper evident.
      As my friends continued trying to rip the box open, I looked at their timer and saw that it had increased the time that they needed to wait until it was going to open. Seeing this, I decided to leave my box alone and let the timer run out on its own. I went over to it and picked it up to move it somewhere else, but when I did, the timer reset itself. I didn't move it anymore and just let it sit on the ground. I continued waiting, but after another minute, the box started glitching and the timer would keep resetting itself every second. I got up and left the box in disgust.
      I saw that my friends had done the same, and they were now talking to everyone else in the room. I went to where they were and saw that they were talking to my other friends, Brittany and Lisbeth from school. As I took part in the conversation, Brittany was telling us that Lisbeth was her real sister. It surprised me because I had never known that before. The two girls left to go do something real quick, and while they did, Patrick came up to me. "Dude she's pretty cute", he said. "Which one?", I asked. "Lisbeth, man, I think I'm going to go out with her", he told me.
      This created a conflict inside of me, because I too had liked Lisbeth and was going to ask her out, but I didn't want to ruin my friendship with Patrick or anything, so I decided to stay low for now. I remember looking at Lisbeth, and she was wearing a bright green track jacket. She looked beautiful, but hey, she always does.

      3. I was upstairs in my room, just chilling on my laptop. My room was huge now, and besides my bed, it was completely empty. Also, my bed was now in the bottom right corner of my room, and it too was a lot bigger in size;it seemed like it became king size. As I continued chilling, my mom walked into my room and asked if I wanted to go to some food restaurant to get something to eat(I don't remember what it was called). I said yes and started getting ready.
      I turned off my laptop and put on my shoes. "Mom and Dad don't usually eat out this late, thats pretty odd" I thought to myself. I looked at my digital clock and it read 9:00 p.m. I turned off my light and left my room. As I left my room, I passed the spare bedroom which my sister was in(she likes playing her video games in that room). I saw that the light was on, and I assumed that she was staying here and wasn't coming with us. I remember thinking about how she might get scared, being alone in the house this late at night.
      My parents were downstairs waiting for me. As I walked down my hallway to get to my stairs I felt a feeling of fear. Something was creeping me out. I don't know what it was, and I didn't really care to know either. I walked down the stairs and met up with my parents in the kitchen. My dad was really mad because earlier he hadn't got to eat any dinner, so he was really hungry and wanted to get to that restaurant fast. I remember the first part of the name of the restaurant we were going to, it was "Bacon".
      I don't remember actually going to this restaurant, but I do remember coming back afterwards and looking in my pantry for more food. In dreams, whenever I look inside of my pantry or fridge, I always see weird food that I've never seen before. This time, I saw some more weird food, along with expired things, but I don't remember what they were.

      4. I remember being in my house or somewhere like it, and I was aware. I was semi-lucid, but I kept getting distracted by the dream. My awareness kept coming to me on and off. I don't remember anything more except for that when I woke up, I really felt like something cool had happened.

    10. Spirited House, Surprising Daryl, Mind Reader, Daryl's Birthday, Hide And Scare (18.8.14)

      by , 08-18-2014 at 02:54 AM (CHiLLEN's Dream Journal)
      Dream 1 - 2:10AM

      I can see towards a house. It's located near my estate over the old train lines rump. As I'm observing the house I can hear a man talking to an interviewer. He's telling the interviewer about everything I'm looking at. He house seems to be a spiritual house from what the man is saying. He's talking about meditation. I see a door which has a webbing design going across it.

      I see the house from a distance again and the man explains about the Winter Olympics coming here, or had recently been. I think I see the house with snow around it.

      Dream 2 - 6:40AM

      I'm at my house and I see my brother and someone else. They're talking to Daryl and his Mum on Skype via the computer, which is in the rumpus room. I don't seem to want to chat to Daryl, but I walk up to the screen anyways. I'm shirtless and Daryl spots me, and tells me I'm looking leaner then the last time he saw me.

      I make the journey over towards Daryl's house. He doesn't know I'm coming over as it's a bit of a surprise. I'm standing in front of his house and it feels as if I've been here before (in a previous dream). The funny looking boat in the drive way even looks the same if not similar. As I'm walking towards the door I see Daryl's Mum. I greet her and tell her she's lost weight. Her face was a lot thinner and sunken in a tad. She says yes, and puts her head down as if she is thin for the wrong reasons. I have a strong feeling she is unwell and maybe been diagnosed with cancer. I feel bad for telling her she lost weight, just in case that was the reason behind the weight loss. I look across the road and see that 2 men are walking their dogs. One of the guys says to the other, something about the way he walks (dog walks in between his legs), is the reason he finds it difficult. The mans dog which walks it strangely, starts to urinate. It looks as if the man is holding the back legs up, making it do a hand stand while in mid stream. The dogs penis looks massive from the distance. The other man walks in the opposite direction, back over the fence into the grassy area. Daryl comes to the door and we greet each other. A dog comes to the front door. It's looks like a grey hound. Daryl's Mum is holding their dog, which looks like a black Labrador. Jane puts her dogs paw towards the other dog so it can sniff her dog.

      Within no time, the Labrador is laying it's head on the grey hound, as if they're best mates.

      Dream 3

      I'm walking across the road near the ice cream shop, when I can read a mans intentions from the distance. He's intentions were to act as if he is a homeless bum, and to attack me. I can see 2 dogs at the end of the lights where the man is. As I'm walking across the road, I walk at a 10 o'clock angle to try and stay away from the man. He does the same and walks in my direction. (Feels like I have been here before and done a similar thing) I begin to make a run for it and head towards an undercover car park. I see a man inside a little booth and hope he's able to help me, but he locks himself in and doesn't intervene. I throw my wallet down on the ground. Moments later I turn around and punch the man chasing me in the face. It's a good hit, and drops him on his arse. I start to think about the damage I would have done to his eye. I eventually make my way back to towards the wallet. In the process of walking there, I see a picture of a achievement unlock for missing item not acclaimed. It says that I failed to complete finding my wallet, and that it had been taken by the man chasing me. Another picture comes up showing the amount which was left in my wallet. There was around $1000 in it. I can see similar threads to Kayley's, when looking for wallet?

      Dream 4

      I'm sitting on the ground and Daryl is showing me pictures of his friends son and daughter. The kids look a little odd looking. Daryl seems to favor the son. The photo of the son was of him standing close to the camera, whereas the daughter was amongst other people sitting on a couch.I can see a picture of Daryl receiving a birthday cake off of his friends in Yeppoon. They got him a ice cream cake.

      Daryl is standing at a fridge. He's holding up the box which has the cake in it. I catch a glimpse of the brand on the box which doesn't look familiar. Daryl offers me some but I decline. I do eventually try a little just to get the taste. Daryl raves about how good it tastes but i don't seem to rate it as highly as he does. It's good but nothing special. As they're sitting down, his Mum explains that it would be much better if it had some kind of fruit in it, as well as other stuff. I debate what would be good for the cake and show them a cooking article, which looks to be on a kindle looking device. Daryl unfolds his, now looking like paper.

      Dream 5

      I'm in a bedroom with my brother. He tells me to hide, because a women in red is coming into the room and he wants to play a prank on them. I hide under the bed which doesn't have a mattress on it. The only thing that's making me less visible is the wooden slats connected to the bed. I worry that I'll be seen. The old women walks into the room and we both lock eyes. I'm sure I've been caught hiding but she doesn't see me. As she walks up a few steps to exit the bedroom my brother hits the button which plays a scary sound, hoping to scare the shit out of the people entering. Another victim walks into the bedroom, and this time it's a young black women. She reminds me of my brothers old girlfriend, except she was white. The black women seems very energetic and is acting all excited. She looks to be stealing stuff off the bed and I realize I left my phone on bed. She doesn't grab the phone. She starts dancing and singing, while eating some kind of treat on the bed. It was inside a box. As she leaves my brother hits the button and scares her. A man walks into the room for a moment then leaves. I don't get to see him, but I heard that he threatened to kill whoever scared him. The door that they all exited out of was my dad's bedroom door.

      We're in the kitchen. This time Josh is with us. We tell him what we had been up too and I found it hilarious. My brother didn't seem to think it was as funny as I thought. I notice I have an erection and not wearing any pants, just underwear. I see Dale Thomas (AFL Player) in a scene, he's talking about how he wired up the connections for the clubs internet. I can now see another AFL Player kick the ball up into the air next to a goal post. I think they're looking to shorten the posts. Dale notices the player is kicking wrong and he helps him kick correctly.

      Dream Fragments:

      I'm in my house and I fart a little too hard and at the wrong time. To sum it up, I shat my pants. I can feel the warmth of the poo sitting in my pants and feel it running down towards my feet. I rush myself toward the toilet, looking like a person who just shat themselves. Lol.

      Side Notes:

      Swapped mattresses. Felt a little soft. Got to sleep quicker then usual. Woke up around 5AM and struggled to get to sleep for an hour.
    11. Giant Stingray in the Black Jellyfish Sea

      by , 08-17-2014 at 11:12 PM (One Up Seeker)
      So, I haven't recorded these dreams all day so that means my recall will be a little off today guys.

      1. I was in some huge ocean, and it was crystal clear, but at the same time had an electric blue/teal glow to it. I was scuba diving with a friend. As we were swimming, I saw a massive stingray start swimming towards us. This stingray was gray and had a "wing" span equal to the length of 3 football fields. Me and my friend now started swimming towards it. Once we got right in front of it, we got on top of it.
      We stood on top of one of its wings, and my friend started creating a huge air bubble. He somehow got a giant air bubble to form on the stingray's wing and got it to stick to it so it wouldn't float off. At first, it was mainly a giant bubble filled with water, but my friend somehow got all of the water inside of it to be sucked out. Once he did that, we got inside and took a brake. I breathed in the fresh air inside of it, it was just like regular air.
      By the way, the entire time I was in this massive ocean, there were jellyfish everywhere. This ocean was filled with jellyfish, and there was 1 jellyfish for every square foot. These jellyfish were all deep black in color, and were just floating around. I remember me and my friend trying not to touch them, and I didn't know much about them or what they could do.
      Later on, the dream restarted itself, I now found myself swimming in the same ocean, but this time my sister was swimming with me. I looked around, and the jellyfish were still everywhere and they still looked the same. I looked ahead and saw the Stingray approaching us, I told my sister what we were going to do and that we were going to get on top of it a create an air bubble. Once the Stingray got right on us, we got on one of its wings and I started to create an air bubble. I created a water bubble and then proceeded to suck all of the water out. Me and my sister then got inside of the air bubble and we rode the stingray back to shore because we were really far out.
      Once we got to the shore, I remember going on top of a huge wall that was about 50 meters high. I walked into a room on top of this wall(It was pretty wide) and when I went inside, it was my living room. The living room of my house was on top of a wall. Inside, my dad was on facebook. His cousin Karen had just started an argument with him, and I remember her comment saying something like, "You are a no good, worthless, deviant child", and this was aimed at my dad. My dad got pissed and started ranting about her and how disrespectful she was.
      I remember going into my laundry room and throwing away some trash(our trashcan is in there). When I did, and I opened the lid by pressing down on the panel with foot, I looked inside and saw alot of paper towels that had alot of tiny holes in it, as if someone punched alot of holes in it(like with notebook paper). My awareness started kicking in at this point, but it kept going off and on. I remember thinking about this and how I wanted to stay fully aware. I was aware at this point, but I wasn't sure if it was a dream or not.
      I walked back outside of my living room and went to the edge of the wall and looked over. Now there was a huge city where the ocean used to be, and it looked like a city from tron, but it had the graphics of a video game. The entire city looked "electronic" in a sense. As I looked at a skyscraper right in front of me, I thought about my friend Lane. I "remembered" that he told me that he had stored all of his "music files" into every room inside of that building.
      I thought about all of the music I had, and I knew that it would only fill up one section of the skyscraper. As I thought about this, one entire section of the skyscraper turned neon red(I'm assuming this was supposed to represent the music files being inside of that section of the building). My mom came outside and she wanted me to come back inside. I explained to her what I was doing and about the music files and stuff.

      2. I was in my old middle school, Vogel, and was walking down the hallway where my old classes were. I was supposed to go to room 326 to take my test. As I walked down the hallway, I noticed that the hallways looked the same as they did years ago. I continued walking and eventually came to the last hallway where my old classes were. The main hallway was rather crowded, it was filled with the belongings of all of the other students taking tests.
      Apparently, I had made it just in time, because the tests were about to begin, but I hadn't really found my class yet. I saw my old teacher Mrs. Williams who was my science teacher in 6th grade. As I came up to her, I asked her where my class was. Just as I did so, the announcement speaker came on and told people where they needed to go according to their last names. "Last names that start with A-G, room 326", the lady said. I remember continuing to look for my class. I'm not sure if I found it.

      3. I was inside of some store, and I was the only one in it. Nobody else was inside, not even a store manager or employee or anything. The only thing in this store was two racks with many types of jackets on them. When I looked at them I "realized" that all of the jackets on each rack, were my old jackets from when I was a kid. I tried some of them on, and many of them I could no longer fit it.
      I looked outside and was astonished. A massive thunderstorm was going on right now, it was so bad. The wind outside was insanely strong, and it was raining down extremely heavy. The clouds were really dark as well. I opened the door for a second to see how bad it was, and outside it felt like some kind of Arctic wind. It was so cold outside. I closed the door and knew that I was going to need to put on a heavy jacket if I was going to go outside.
      I looked at the 2 racks again and tried on some more jackets. I remember putting on a really thin, small jacket. It was white and navy blue with horizontal stripes and it had 2 giant holes right where each arm pit was. I was going to wear it, but then I saw the arm pit holes. I then went over too the 2nd rack and picked out a heavy, green, winter jacket. I put it on, and prepared to go outside. I knew as soon as I went outside, the wind would mess up my hair, but I had no choice.
      I opened the door and walked outside. It was still really cold and windy. I ran to another building not far from the one I was in. Once I got inside, I looked around. The interior of this building was all black, the walls, the floors, everything that had to do with the foundation of the building. I saw my friend Matt from 9th grade and we talked. He had a bowlcut and I thought it looked unusual on him. I remember sitting on the ground next to a row of chairs and eating some food. The old lady that was in charge of this building got mad at me and told me to clean up my mess. I told her that the crumbs that were on the floor around me weren't mine.
      I hid my trash in an empty bag of chips on the ground in front of me and got up and walked off. I never threw away my trash.

      4. This dream was more like one of those movie dreams where you just spectate the entire thing. Here goes:
      A man and his wife lived in a one story house in a neighborhood. The wife was inside of the house, and walked in the room where her daughter was sleeping. I think her daughter was only about 3 or 4 years old. She picked her up and cradled her in her arms. The wife had red hair and talked as if she were talking to a camera man in a documentary.
      I remember as she talked, her hair instantly turned black and got longer. Her hair was still curly though. She talked to the "camera man" and said that she was trying to contain her hair, but that it was really hard. She kept trying to get the point across that she was really trying. After this, the wife walked outside with her husband. I came into the dream and became the wife. As I walked outside, I walked on the rocky concrete road and it hurt my feet. I looked down and saw that I was barefooted. The rocks I had just walked on really hurt my feet.
      I turned around to go back inside and as I did, I looked to my right and saw a small dog sprinting towards me. It was really small, and had brown hair with gray accents in it. I thought about making a run for the door to get inside, but I knew I was too late and I would have to face this dog. I ran to get a little closer to the house and the dog met up with me about 7 feet from the door. At this point, when the dog was only about a yard away from me, it turned into a small squirrel like/ fat guinea pig creature. It could still run fast though.
      Once it got close enough to me, it jumped onto my right arm and started running up to my shoulder. I knew that once it got up to my shoulder, it was going to bite me in the neck. Just as it got near my shoulder, I grabbed its entire body and choked it inside of my hand. The husband of this woman that I became, was just standing on the side of the road next to their house, just gazing off into the distance.

      5. I was in a really big, advanced city. There were skyscrapers all around, and there were so many buildings that on the streets, it seemed like it was always overcast. I was with my family and we had just walked into a "Luxury" McDonalds and we starting telling the lady what we wanted. I ordered alot of stuff, including mac and cheese. Everything I ordered, they had available. Once they took our orders we went to go sit down at a booth.
      We started walking towards one booth, but then a black couple sat down in it. We approached another booth and another group of black people sat down in it(BTW I'm not racist, just trying to specific.) We continued on and sat down at a booth near them. There were alot of booth seats, and each one could hold about 6 people. Each booth seat was set up extremely close to another one next to it.
      In the booth me and my family sat in, we sat right next to a black woman in a dress, and her child. Her child was half asleep sitting down across from her. I remember at the counter when I finished telling the lady what I wanted, she gave me 1 fry, I'm guessing to serve either as a preview of what I was about to get, or as an appetizer, I'm not sure. Anyways, I brought this one fry with me to the booth. The black lady with her son noticed it and said, "Hey, isn't that my fry? Give it to me". "No, this is my fry. The lady at the counter just gave it to me", I told her.
      I then picked up the fry and took a bite out of it. It tasted like a raw potato skin, and thats exactly what it looked like. It was really greasy and was partially green and almost fully black. It was as thin as the skin of a potato as well. After I took this bite out of it the lady in the dress with her son asked me, "Well, can I have it?". I gave the rest of the "fry" to her and she gave it to her son. Her son woke up, and after looking at it, he decided that he didn't want it. The lady took the fry and kept it next to her.
      After that, I waited a few more minutes and eventually my dad was about to leave because we waited so long. Finally, the lady that took our order came over to us with all of our food on a tray. She gave me something that was supposed to be my mac and cheese, but all it really was, was a thing of medium fries with small blocks of cheese attached to the fries. I noticed that it wasn't mac and cheese, but I started eating it anyway. It tasted pretty good.

    12. 8/17/14 | Parking Lot Lucid

      by , 08-17-2014 at 02:45 PM
      In my previous dream I had just gotten shot in the head, I told the person to do it. I laid still afterwards and waited for the whooshing to start. I visualized myself in a parking lot and that is where I ended up.
      I felt everything around me, stabilized and looked at the fine hairs on my arm. It was raining a little bit I think and was a little windy. I had a really weird feeling in my legs, kind of tingly. I tried to summon somebody but they looked really weird. Like half of the normal face then half the face of Arya Stark from GoT. So I tried somebody else to summon and they had their head on a horse. The horse chased after me and kept nudging me and woke me up.



      I laid on my right side and waited for the noises, like the whooshing and tinnitus kind of things. Then I focus on them and make them louder, and then I visualized myself in to the dream and it worked. Was after around 8 hours of sleep and I had a dream right before it.
      I feel like I can enter into this phase really easily now after some sleep, going to keep working on it.

    13. 00:00 Sunday 2014-08-17 fragmented early morning, better late morning, successful back to sleep

      by , 08-17-2014 at 08:25 AM
      tired all day, 100mg b6, 2mg melatonin, 1 scoop UYM muscle-builder, noticed no effects
      B6 for better memory/recall, didn't notice any difference. Muscle-builder addiitonally for night-time energy since was quite hungry at bed-time. Woke up with a bit of a sort of stuffy head feeling.

      00:00 Sunday 2014-08-17

      (early morning recall, frustrating, almost nothing but fragments and I *know* there was a lot more there, nothing other than first impressions would come in at all despite diligent effort)

      06:30

      +(f) I've come up with a guaranteed way to make money, it's so simple I can't believe everybody doesn't do it, based on real estate

      +(f) I'm at a table tasting two different Chardonnays, I can't tell the difference, I hear a wine-snob type says one of the wines isn't ready, the other one has "hints of Acacia."

      +(f) I'm surfing on water apologizing for the complexity of something I've prepared

      +(f) gathering the opinion of colleagues on some work I've done, I'm describing it a bit

      + in a garage full of toys I inspect a bicycle that's just come out of the washing machine and is dripping wet, I look at its small transparent seat, I'm sitting on a child's bike the handle bars are loose and not aligned with the front wheel, an Indian father is looking at a 1-foot tall robot toy and talking on a cell phone talking to his kid(s) saying "they're willing to trade, but there's no guarantees"

      (late morning, got back to sleep, yay)

      09:15

      + (near lucid) flying through a series of glass-windowed walls, a new wall appears before me every time I fly through the next one, I can't break the cycle with expectation, I think this is ridiculous I've never had this issue before when flying, I see a city scape in the distance with night-time city lights, the tinted walls of windows has controllable-polarizing where the level of darkness is controllable. I fly out the first time through the glass expecting to pass through easily but get a bit stuck. Second wall I encounter I choose a section that is open with a screen that is not connected on the right side, expecting to pass through easily but I hit the screen and need to push it aside slightly. Looking ahead I see each glass wall fading in to appear farther in front of me just before I fly through one more.

      (This was noteworthy in that my dreams usually do not troll me so obviously, putting me into an unescapable loop like that, that may be the first time I recall it happening.)

      + In my home living room, I'm looking in to the top freezer section of our fridge, I see some ice cream bars there I try to pick one up but it's quite soft, I see several more and realize they're all soft, I look at the freezer box and notice it can't close properly there is a lot of ice/debris in the way so I try to clear out the door area and around the side so that it will close. I step back and look at it and realize part of the front door and side wall are entirely missing, that's why the ice cream is soft, I tell my wife the freezer is broken, (I think someone in particular [a woman] has done this).

      I then see my son S2 at a cute young age and lie with my back on the floor and put him on top of my bent knees (on his stomach) and play motorcycle with him several times, raising my legs and flipping him head over heels onto my chest. I realize I didn't do the whole game properly and so repeat it. I want to experience this time with him at this age for a long time, I think it's really important to value this time with young children. When finished, I reach over to S1 lying near me on the floor (present age) and pull him to me by his hand but nothing then happens. I'm still lying on my back and an older unrelated girl (JG I think) wearing PJs lies on my legs which are still in motorcycle-game-position and wants to play too, I feel her heavier weight, feel her body a bit through the PJs on my leg, and think we should stop before someone sees.

      I'm walking through some outdoor small area around tables looking for my young-age S2 again, I think about summoning him, it doesn't work, there are other small kids running around and a parent watching over them.

      + abstract/weird "dream-like" huge amusement area/slide, riding balloon falling on cartoon spikes. This slide/area is in the distance, then it's in front of me, I look down the white slide to see various rides/attractions on it including a water-spraying game in the distance.

      + I receive a memo / email at work, I read it but am a bit confused about its meaning. At first I think an "MP" (VP probably) wants to meet with me to commend me on my excellent work and offer me a continuation of my contract or maybe a permanent position. Then reading it again I think it says he's meeting with underperforming empoyees to diagnose the problem. I'm in a meeting room but it's filled with empty-headed marketing types, it's not my meeting. I'm walking around and am carrying two bottles filled with lucid dreaming supplement capsules, I take some capsules and a bunch of them spill on the carpet, I'm trying to pick them up but they keep spilling (DREAM SIGN!), I want to put them into a drawer so they're not seen, I don't want them to think I'm a drug addict, they won't understand about LD supplements. One of the bottles has written around the rim next to the cap "National Steroids", so I know they'll think I'm a druggie. (Something about coins?) I'm looking for the meeting I enter a room and see people in elegant black evening wear it's a celebration of the company's success, there's a beautiful marketing woman in black sleeveless evening dress, she lifts her arm and I see a glistening spot on her armipt and think this is a patch of deodorant.

      I walk to the end of this narrow room turn the corner and head right back the same way I just came in the new room which is also narrow it has hair-dressers cooing over an infant, I think the meeting room is off to the left at the end of this room.

      +(f) leaving a diner I get a splinter in my bare foot, I try scaping it off on something, I must have left my sandals in the diner.

    14. Fedoras and Flatulence

      Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

      Lucid #231: Fedoras and Flatulence

      I wake up feeling disappointed that I didn’t manage to have a lucid dream. Well, too late for that -- Wife and the kids are up and getting ready and my folks are here too. I feel grumpy and sorry for myself, but I get started with the day. Lots of mundane stuff happens and eventually we all wind up sitting at a cafeteria table across from a pedestal.

      The pedestal fascinates me. It has the vague outline of a statue on it, which will fade from looking fully physical to almost completely invisible. It’s a statue of Artemis, and I know that nobody can see it but me because I’m the only lucid dreamer in this whole place. As I’m staring at this statue, a brown-haired woman in her early 20s sits down in the chair next to me, a little closer than appropriate. She touches me on the shoulder flirtatiously and leans in. “Hi! What are we looking at?”

      I feel uneasy about how close she’s getting but also attracted and flattered. I feel like I don’t know how much information I should reveal about being a lucid dreamer, so my answer is guarded: “That’s supposed to be a statue there.”

      “Well, what do you see?” she asks.

      The truth: “It’s a statue of Artemis. I can see it because I’m a lucid dreamer.”

      “That’s amazing!” she says. She makes a few more comments about lucid dreaming and then stands up. Her inner thigh brushes my left hand as she gets up and I again get that mix of attraction and discomfort. She smiles. “You should call me if you ever want to talk to me about it.”

      I think that I’d have no way to call her because I don’t have her phone number. I’m about to ask her what it is but stop when I realize how bad that would sound. This all feels strange to me now. I look to my right and my family isn’t here with me. It’s just me. I take the nose pinch reality check and I blow right through, becoming semi-lucid but just not completely convinced. .This feels so real, am I sure? I hit a second nose pinch and
      now I’m fully lucid.

      I get up from the table and move into an adjacent room, remembering my intent to summon Dreamer. My go-to method has been transforming an existing DC into her, so I look around at the few dream characters wandering this scene and confidently grab the nearest one. It’s a short, pudgy Asian male, overall a really abysmal candidate for this transform into Dreamer. I want to be confident though so I go right ahead with trying to transform this dude.

      I press my hands along his scalp, spreading Dreamer’s purple hair color along his scalp. He’s smiling and kind of chuckling at this, seeming to find it funny. The purple is coming out but whatever paint is coming out of my hands feels really clump and uneven. The guy’s scalp is kind of sweaty, too, and the purple paint even starts running down his face. His hair isn’t even half purpled before I get frustrated after a long time trying. Okay, maybe he looks too different, try changing the face. I start mashing on his face with my hands, trying to change his look into Dreamer. He seems to be getting kind of pissed at me for this and the whole thing just becomes awkward.

      Okay, move on. I leave and walk into another room with a strange, gently wavy floor. I try the behind-the-back summon, narrating that “I feel Dreamer’s hand over here,” but I feel this doubt like I’m not doing things properly. I call out “[Dreamer]!” (using her real name) and vaguely hear a response, and I decide that she must be up ahead in some nearby room. I decide to use my old trick of demanding that the dream show me the way, and now when I call for Dreamer, a doorway glows with bright yellow light.

      I continue moving through another series of 3-4 doors this way, demanding to be shown the way and the dream complying. I wind up in a large, cavernous room filled with DCs. There is a group of nuns near one side of the room that are dressed in unusual red habits. A large number of adults wander the room (more women than men) and close to the center of the room there’s a shallow pit where a large group of children are playing together. I ask the dream to show me where Dreamer is, but the glow effect always seems to be slightly out of view, frustrating me. I demand out loud that “Everybody point to where [Dreamer] is in this room.”

      Every character in the scene turns toward a young, blond girl that’s playing in the pit. She’s about 6, her hair much shorter and lighter than I would have imagined, but I feel like this is her. I walk up to the child, who looks up at me with a goofy, slightly crooked-toothed smile. I place my hands on the sides of her head and say, “This is you, you’re [Dreamer].” As I say this, she grows to full height and now she looks completely like herself, apart from the fact that she has the little girl’s short, blond hair.

      “Thank you for finding me!” she says. Dreamer puts her arms around my neck and we briefly hug. Almost immediately, all of the DCs in the room move toward, all of them smiling at her, greeting her, and wanting to interact with her. Some of them congratulate her. I stand by a few feet to the side, interested and amused. As each of the DCs greet her in turn, at one point a man comes up with a tiny fedora and placed it onto her head as if he’s crowning her.

      The happy throng of DCs congregate around Dreamer as they all walk toward one of the room’s exits. I feel sad to see her leave the dream scene so early but all of this feels very natural to me, so I don’t resist it.

      Once I find myself alone, I walk through another exit into an office scene with lots of people working at desks. It looks like we’re high up in a skyscraper. I make some mischief in here with telekinesis, throwing a plastic sign, tossing a desk, picking up one poor guy who’s just trying to get his work done. The office workers start seeming uncomfortable with my presence, so I look for an exit.

      Off to the side is a platform with a waiting helicopter, so I climb aboard. Another DC tries to get on with us, and there’s a brief argument about who should get to come aboard. The pilot says (referring to me) “He can do whatever he wants,” and we take off. We fly over the city for a good while and I spy a few buildings that look reminiscent from spots in Breaking Bad. Eventually the helicopter hovers over a forest clearing near a building and I jump out. The helicopter flies off and I’m alone again.

      I remember that I have a lucid dare from Dreamer that requires me to perform a Super Advanced Fart (one which is “very long, loud, and powerful”). At first I feel like this will be impossible. My body isn’t giving me “the signal” that anything can be conjured up. I know that this is a dream, though, so I convince myself that a bubble of pressure is forming in my stomach. Once that’s there, a good push sends me into a full eruption. The emerging fart is ultra loud and super powerful, lifting me gently into the air. It feels like there’s a hand or a platform under my butt lifting me upward. I wobble around unsteadily in the air, leaning left and right and bobbing a bit. It feels like I have a jet pack on.

      I’d hoped to have enough propulsion to reach lower earth orbit, but I never get more than 15-20 feet off the ground. As the “event” ends, I settle back down to the ground. Dare achieved!

      I’ve still got some dream left, so I decide to find Dreamer again. I ask the dream to show me where she is, and a door glows on a nearby building. I head for the door but before I reach it,
      I have a false awakening at the foot of a bed. Wife is lying on the bed, completely unclothed, writing on a notepad. I feel extreme sexual attraction and I curl up next to her. The moment that I kiss her neck, though, her clothes reappear. Then she shows me that she’s making a list of personality quirks that makes her good at Jeopardy questions. I’m still trying to figure out how to turn things frisky when my dad walks by on the way to the kitchen. The mood is officially ruined, so I get up for the day before waking up for real.
    15. I Finally Found Her, and other Adventures

      by , 08-16-2014 at 07:49 PM (One Up Seeker)
      1.
      I was in some sort of public theater that had a white interior. The floor was made of white tiles as well. I was walking outside with my mom, dad, and my sister and as we were walking down a hallway of the theater in order to get out, my sister told us that she felt sick. Right after she said that she threw up a little bit. We scolded her and told her to go back and clean it up.
      An officer that was guarding the theater saw this incident and enforced, "Yea you better clean that up or else I'll have to write you a ticket if you don't." I remember my sister acknowledging this and then going back to clean it up. My dad was really upset about this and kept on telling her to clean it up. When she threw up, the only thing I saw come out of her mouth was a type of white, thick spit, and it was only a little puddle the size of one's palm.
      Me and my dad walked out of the theater place and I kind of wandered off and walked around the parking lot. I saw a group of my friends around the middle of the parking lot just chilling, so I met up with them. One guy that was there was a guy I knew from ROTC, he had a twin brother so I had no idea which brother he was, or what his name was. Him and my friends were playing with silly string and just spraying it around. All of my friends were partially covered in the silly string, which was a dark neon pink in color. I asked the twin if I could have some of the silly string, and he told me, "Nah dude get your own, there's some over there". He said this in a really grumpy way.
      I turned around, and only about 20 feet away from me was a can of silly string, and it was pink. I picked it up and as I did the twin told me I was going to go into "Zombie mode". Instantly as I picked it up and held it in my hands, a transparent film of dark neon pink covered my entire field of vision. I found out that whenever I jumped into the air, I would jump pretty high and it would be in slow motion.
      I went around my friends in this, "Zombie mode", and sprayed them all. I even ran around them just spraying the silly string into the air. I remember feeling it about to run out, so I ran up to a pole and started to climb up it. The climb was really easy considering that I was in slow motion. I continued climbing, but I couldn't make it to the very top. I made it really close to the top though, and when I did I looked down and ahead of me and saw my friend Brittany and I got her attention and tried to scare her.
      She saw me and I saw that I startled her. I came down from the pole and put down the silly string. Now, I was no longer in, "Zombie mode". I looked around the parking lot, and at myself. I noticed that I was shirtless and that my abs were showing. I looked across from myself and about 30 feet to my side there was a buff guy that was also shirtless and he was walking with his family to his car. He had slightly better abs than I did mainly because he looked like a teen body builder.
      "He's my only competition", I thought. With this I started walking back inside to the theater. My dad met me at the entrance of the theater and we both walked into the doorway of another room directly to my left. It was the closest room to the exit. Inside of this room, there were multiple computers everywhere. The computers were put inside of tan bathroom stalls. In each stall, there was supposed to be a toilet seat as well, so I'm assuming that one could use the computer while they were doing their business.
      I approached the first stall and my dad told me, "That's the one I usually go into". I looked inside of it and noticed that this stall was really small and also really packed. It was missing a toilet and it had a huge computer inside. I left this stall and looked around for others. As I did so, I noticed that there were no other stalls only computers. As I continued walking, I was confronted by a girl. She was rather short and had black hair. She started flirting with me as I looked for a computer to get on. I asked her, "Whats the best computer you guys have in here?".
      Right as I asked that, some other girls brought in a huge computer and put it on the desk next to me. They told me that this was a new computer and that it was the, "Super/Mother computer". Exactly what I wanted. Another girl came up to me to see if I needed any help. I recognized her, it was the girl I had a crush on. I was still shirtless inside of this room and all of the girls kept trying to feel my abs and flirt with me.
      I had my sights on one girl in specific though, my crush. She looked beautiful and she looked pretty much the same in real life except for the fact that she was alot more tan than in waking life. All of the other girls in the room left, and now it was just me and her. For some reason I brought up the buff guy I had seen in the parking lot to start a conversation with her. "Did you see that buff guy in the parking lot?", I asked. "Yep", she replied. "Yea he was pretty buff and he had really good abs" I said( I have no idea why I talked about him and made him look better like WTF).
      Right after this it came to me that I was talking to my crush, and I became Lucid. The first thing that came to my mind that I wanted to do, was dilate time. "Wait right here and don't move", I told her in a nice way. I walked down an aisle next to me and tried dilating time using Hukif's method. I closed one eye and starting counting up from 1. I looked around as I did so and I noticed things were starting to get swirly. I eventually made it around the aisle and I stopped counting at 20. I had rushed the entire method, so I had a feeling it wasn't going to work.
      I came back to my crush and she jumped into my arms. I held onto her and decided I was going to carry her around in my arms. For some reason I had difficulty lifting my feet up and walking, but it wasn't because she was heavy. I thought about altering the way I walked to where I could just float through the air, but it didn't work. I carried my crush over to a corner and we started kissing. I'm not going to lie, it felt pretty magical. Somehow, my crush instantly became naked. I looked out the window in front of us and saw a screen. It was the screen of a phone. It was a conversation between a couple. Here's what I remember of it:
      Guy: I'm going to eat you out.
      Girl: Why? You should do something else.
      Guy: I want to lick your pussy (wtf, really random)
      Girl: Red!(<<no idea what thats supposed to mean) I want you to do something else( another sexual act).
      I was reading all of this while I was fore playing with my crush. I placed my crush on the ledge of the window, and started eating her out(I dont know why, but this is always what I do first to a girl in dreams. Maybe its a fetish?). I was really enjoying myself and so was my crush. I had the feeling that that conversation that I saw was supposed to represent her, and that she didn't want me to eat her out. I didn't want to make her do anything she didn't want to either.

      All of a sudden, I started feeling myself about to wake up. I'm pretty sure it was because I focused on myself too much at that moment. I woke up feeling happy and refreshed.

      2. I was inside of my room, in bed. I have a feeling that this dream was a WILD/FA because this was the first dream of my naptime today.
      I was lying in my bed and the lights were off. I could feel that my eyes were still closed, but I could see through my closed eyelids. I could see my entire room. Immediately after I noticed this, my mom opened my door and checked to see if I was asleep. Seeing that I was, she closed the door. Seconds later she opened the door again and looked inside, and then closed it again. She did this about 5 times, I guess that they either: couldn't tell that I was asleep, or they wanted to wake me up. My sister was right behind my mom as well while this happened.
      After the 5th time of coming into my room and then leaving, my mom finally came inside for sure and turned on my lights. (wth, this would've pissed me off in waking life). I didn't move and decided I was just going to stay still. "Mom, I can see through my eye-lids while my eyes are closed", I told her. "No, your eyes aren't even closed", she replied. I knew that my eyes were closed, but I didn't try arguing with her.
      My mom told me that I needed to get up because we were going somewhere, I don't remember what she said though.

      3. I was inside of someones house, it looked like my grandpa's house. A party was going on, and I was just sitting in the middle of the floor listening to music( lol, no idea why). All of a sudden, everyone came into the living room where I was sitting down, and they sat down too. A group a black dudes sat right behind me, but I stayed chill. Some lady came to the front of the living room and announced that the "Rewards ceremony" was starting.
      I put my music in, and as I did so I noticed that I had put in a phone charger plug into both of my ears. I could still hear music, so it didn't bother me and I didn't really care that I was listening to a charger plug. I was starting to fall asleep while I listened to my music when out of the blue, a black guy with dreads behind me pushed me on the shoulder. He was wearing sunglasses and his dreads reached down to the end of his neck.
      I took out my music and he told me that the Announcer lady had just called my name for a reward, but I was too late and didn't respond so she gave the reward to someone else. The black guy me was no really mad at me for not getting the reward. The lady kept giving out rewards and gave out about 15 or so of them. After the ceremony ended and she finished giving out rewards, everyone in the living room stood up and started drinking. I stood up as well and just chilled.
      Some lady, who I'm guessing was in charge of the party, came up to me and told me that I couldn't drink if I wasn't 18 years old. I told her that I was and she said, "Okay". She started walking away, but I walked with her to convince her better that I was 18. I told her that I had failed kindergarten 4 times and that's what held me back. Once I felt that she was convinced I left her side. I think I looked around for something to drink, but I'm not sure.

      4. I was downstairs in the living room of my own house, and I was talking to my dad and my sister. My dad was telling me some kind of story about our house and about 2 weird kind of birds that used to live in the kitchen. I mentioned something about it being the dreamworld, don't remember exactly what I said though. After he told me and my sister the story, I opened the front door of our house and walked out.
      I started walking towards the back door with an ambition to see whatever my dad was talking about. It was overcast outside and really dark as though it were about to rain. As I went through my gate and opened up my back door and walked inside, I saw some weird things. I saw two large bowls filled with some unknown mushy half-solid food. In between those two bowls I saw a really small green bowl with grayish-green mushy stuff inside of it.
      It was really dark inside my kitchen, and the only light inside was the light that was coming from outside, which wasn't much. I got really scared and ran out the back door and ran back in through my front door.

      5. I was with my friends Dylan and Patrick and we were walking in some kind of tunnel. The tunnel had air holes all around it, so not only could we breathe well, but we could also look outside and see what was around us. We continued walking through it, and it was really long. We finally made it to the end of the tunnel and saw an exit to get out of it. I looked down and out through the exit and saw 2 vans with some random mexican dudes just waiting next to them.
      I got a bad feeling about leaving the tunnel when I saw them, I felt like they were either going to harm us, or kidnap us. I told my friends that we shouldn't leave the tunnel. The next thing I remember, my grandpa is in the tunnel with us and we walk out of the exit. Suddenly the dream scene changed and now I was in my kitchen. All of the lights were off and me, my dad, and my grandpa were all talking about the dream I had with grandpa in it. Grandpa was telling my dad what happened in the dream and it was all based off of what I told him.
      I remember telling my grandpa about the dream inside of the dream. He continued telling my dad about the dream.

      6. I was inside some kind of huge arena, maybe a video game map? I looked up at the sky and saw that it was a dark orange and of course the sky was overcast. I was with someone, I think it was my sister, and we were trying to survive. We came to the cliff of this video game map and saw something that looked like half of a tennis court/basketball court that was completely rusted.
      I knew that I was supposed to launch something/shoot a cannon on this court. There were many of these courts across the map, and this one was the only one that was cut in half. I remember encountering many enemies across the map, but I don't remember any more of this journey.
