memorable

I had a Vivid Dream but not Lucid.
I took a Lucid Dream pill or I listened to some audio and I passed out in the dream.' (IT FELT REALLY LIKE I PASSED OUT)
I woke up and I was at some computer and it was giving me a Tutorial to Lucid dream It told me to reality check "right now" at that moment I was paying attention to everything else the tutorial didn't mention WILD or any ILD's I didn't reality check though.
_Apple Juice_
I heard If you drink apple juice your Vivid-ness gets better and you may have lucid dreams.
As long as it doesn't have sugar than I'm in for it. I think I'm getting closer to lucid dream

1. I had just appeared in my friend Patrick's house, and immediately I became Lucid. I looked around me and noticed that I was all alone, no body was home. It was extremely dark inside and no lights were on in the house. As usual, everything had a blue tint to it, but this time, everything appeared to be more electrified. I walked down the hallway and then into the living room. Still dead silent. I realized that I was just wasting time standing around, so I opened up the back door and walked out.
As I did so, I closed the door behind me. Patrick's backyard still looked the same, and he still had the same black gate. I opened up his gate and walked out. I noticed that it was daytime all of a sudden, and I started walking down the street. As I came to the end of his driveway I looked to the right and left of me on the street to see what everyone was doing. I saw a few ladies socializing, and a few kids playing. I decided that I was going to fly, and so I took off and flew into the air.
I was struggling a bit with my flying abilities at the moment, and then a thought came to me, "This is my dream, and I have complete Dream Control so I can fly like a pro right now". After I said this, my flying abilities became almost perfect. I continued gliding through the air with ease, and I was really enjoying myself. I flew down the street I was on, and as I came to the end of it, I saw a dude riding a bike. I landed next to him and talked to him. He had short black hair, and was wearing a white t-shirt with blue jeans. He told me about what he was selling, and I saw that he had a small white cardboard box in his hands.
He then opened up the box and showed me what was inside. Inside, he had 3 pairs of skateboard wheels. So, more specifically he had 3 groups of 2 wheels(hope that makes sense). Each pair was a different color: one was a light red, the other blue, and the last one was green. I got so involved in this conversation with this guy, and I lost my lucidity. I found myself just going along with the flow and not really paying attention anymore, so thats why I lost it. About 30 seconds after I lost lucidity, I woke up.

2. I had just walked into some sort of building with my friend Natalia and 2 other dudes. We walked into a certain room that was almost all white and inside of it there was a big truck, and I'm guessing it was for show. We all sat down at a table inside and started talking. I saw that Natalia was wearing a pink cowgirl shirt, and she looked really pretty. Somehow, we got on the subject of guys, and what kind of guys were Natalia's type.
Suddenly, she looked at me and described her kind of guy, "I like a guy thats skinny, but not too skinny, and one that dresses really good. He also has to be muscular." As she said the word "muscular" she punched me in my abs and smiled. I played along, "Yea that sums up a pretty good guy". After a few more minutes of talking, we got up and left the room we were in. We walked into a hallway, and this is were I basically lost the group of Natalia and the 2 other guys. I stood in the hallway for a second and saw that it had a gray carpet. The walls were still white, but they looked a little dirty.
I looked down the hallway to an extent, and saw a group of kids standing in a doorway. I walked down to it and saw my old friend Nick from 8th grade. I also saw my crush and my god, she looked perfect. She was wearing a blue denim jacket and skinny jeans. Her hair was in a ponytail and she had the right amount of bangs hanging down to where it fit her perfectly. I was so in awe that I wasn't really focusing on anything else. wow.
I started talking to my crush, and asked her what she was doing. While I did so, I noticed that my old friend Nick was looking at me in a weird way. I asked my crush if she had a boyfriend. She said, "Yea, we just broke up for 2 days a few days ago, and now we got back together." "Ah ok, thats cool. Hey do you mind if I talk to you about something in private later? Don't worry its not creepy, I just kinda wanna keep it secret." I asked her. She replied, "Yea thats fine. I'll talk to you in a little bit." With that I walked down the hallway to do something else.
Later on, I came back into the hallway(no idea what I was doing before this, totally forgot) and walked to a public seating area. Here, there were about 4 or 5 round tables that were green in color. Tall plants sat in 2 corners, and it came to me that this must be the lunch area. I sat down next to my crush as she was eating lunch, and we started talking. I remember asking her about her boyfriend, and talking about a lot of other stuff, but I don't remember really any of it.
After we finished talking, I left the table and walked somewhere. The dream then ended and I woke up realizing, "Crap, just missed the dream sign that I almost never miss."

3. I was inside of some pretty big house. The interior looked really fancy and white. The owner was throwing a party and me and my friends Patrick, Trey, and Dylan were all there. Inside, we stood over by a mirrored shelf and chilled. I looked around and saw that there were disco lights circling around the room. The lights were purple, pink, and blue in color. We continued standing there for a while, and then, out of no where came a guy that lives down the street from us: Devin D.
He came up to us and started talking to us. He told each us something personal, and gave us some advice. He tried to make fun of me, but I told him I didn't give a f*** about what he says and that I wasn't going to take crap from him. With this he left us, but in all he was talking to us for about 5 minutes. Earlier in this dream, I remember walking with some short guy in a top hat and a suit. I was with a group of people and he was basically giving us a tour and some other stuff. After that I left the tour and went with my friends.
After Devin left, I looked for the exit of this building. Once I found it(It was directly to my left), I walked out. When I walked out I have to admit, I ran into something that I wasn't expecting. I suddenly found myself in some kind of weird place out in the middle of no where. It wasn't a desert, but it looked like a rocky land with a completely crimson colored surface. The air was really foggy, and everything was pretty dark and shadowy. Up ahead in front of me, I saw a crimson colored Dragon standing on the edge of a cliff. He looked more real than any dragon I had ever seen before. He was huge and had sharp dragon scales all over his body. His head was more flat than most dragons, so he kind of looked like the black main dragon from the movie, "how to train your dragon".
But in all, he looked nothing like a cartoon. I looked into his eyes. They were a piercing yellow- orange in color and truly brought a bit of fear to me. My sister was next to me now, and she had some sort of staff that could shoot out small balls of energy. We were supposed to kill this dragon with it. I took the staff and shot the dragon in the back. Suddenly a health bar appeared above him. The shot did barely any damage, maybe a minuscule amount. The Dragon then turned around and was extremely mad. He slowly started approaching us, all the while I was rapidly firing the staff in my hands.
I continually shot energy balls into his open mouth and slowly, but gradually his health started diminishing. I was really surprised that he hadn't breathed fire onto us. We kept on backing up as he got closer to us, and continued shooting him. I remember getting this dragon's health more than halfway down, but I don't remember anything more.

4. I was with my friends, Dylan, Patrick, and Trey inside of my house. We were all standing in near the dining table. Me and Dylan had a small plastic package of food each. In my package, I had an ordinary meal comprised of some lunch meat, some crackers, and one dessert. In Dylan's package, he had all dessert, there was nothing else, just dessert. I remember having to put my food in the microwave to warm it up as the directions told me. I told Dylan when I was done, but he didn't have to put his in the microwave.
I went over and got another good look at Dylan's package. The container was all blue, but more of teal blue in all. Inside were 4 sections of desserts, the container was split in four. There were chocolate cookies, chocolate crackers, chocolate brownies, and something else. It all looked really good, so I offered Dylan to trade my good food for his dessert. He declined. We never really ate our food, and the dream ended soon after I made my trade offer.

5. I was riding on a bus, sitting in a seat that could hold 3 people. My old friend Nick, from 9th grade(a different nick than the one from the first dream) and some other guy was sitting in the seat with me. I was in the middle, Nick was on the right, and the other dude was on my left. We were just chilling when the guy sitting behind us, Patrick who is a senior, started talking to us about flip flops and slides. Suddenly, Patrick gave me a free pair of Nike Slides. They were black and had blue accents.
I slipped the slides on and thanked Patrick. He said no problem and we continued talking. In the middle of our conversation the guy sitting to my left said really loud to Nick, "Dude, do you ever wash your feet? I can smell your feet from over here and it smells gross." Nick made no comment. All of a sudden I started to smell that smell that belongs to dirty, nasty, smelly feet. It reminded me of an old,aged cheese. It smelt truly horrible, and I wanted to get out of the seat.
I looked down at Nicks feet, and he was wearing green flip flops and of course, he didn't have socks on. As I continued sitting there, all I could focus on was that horrid smell.

(Recall was a little lower today. It's because I recalled my dreams in a different order from usual. Going to get it back up tomorrow).

22:30 pre-bedtime, 1mg melatonin @ 22:00 for resetting bedtime, memory review, set intention for lucid dreaming in the night

22:52 bedtime (yay on schedule!)

(didn't need to consult notes for anything but time of the entries, <but used the one-sentence summaries post as a reminder>)

03:25

+ childhood neighbourhood: on a bicycle at the top of the park on F blvd, old bully MB is there but we're on good terms, I say "this is what you can do a on a bicycle!" and I ride to park-left, up over the curb, and gain speed and ride towards a place where the curb forms a jump and jump WAY up in the air, performing several (3?) back-fiips together with the bike, then steady upright slowly floating down to the ground spin the bike side-ways underneath me in a circle several times, and land on my feet with holding the bicycle up in the air by the seat stem in my right hand (ta da!).

Walking up towards A. blvd above where it meets F blvd past the park a group of girls is there and they're talking about something (networking?) which I disagree with, then they talk about wine, why not grow it here? I think you won't get much, and say "What'll you get, 100 cases? Well, we could sell it at the park for $3/bottle".

At the base of the hill where A and F blvds meet I go DO up in the sky and observe the scene of an accident up on the F hill towards S ave. There are 4 what appear to be motorcycles stopped with their riders, there was some accident there. Close up zooms in to one young Asian man trapped in his "pod" his internal organs are all failing due to the heat inside the pod, he says "No, don't try to save me, save the <ones who come after me>" (who aren't there yet?).

+ I'm standing outside observing lovely golden California hills, standing on a long steep slope (right side facing down the hill), I see to the right the hills go way down to city/the bay. I think I really want to do some hang-gliding here, from here all the way down to the bay. I think that it would be good to try out the hang-glider on a short flight first to make sure it won't collapse on the long, high flight down the hills.

I'm indoors talking with some guy about an <antennae?> that will raise altitude, either he or I make a comment about the updraft winds that would be involved.
----------------

The MOTHER of all "wake can't get back to sleep"s at this point. Some SSILD variants.

05:10 can't sleep, get up to kitchen, sit with cat on lap and drink milk, read a bit from "Nine Princes in Amber" (zillionth reread).

06:15? try back to bed. Still can't sleep. Another hour goes by?

Should I get up again? No. Argh. Counting breaths. Too aware. Fast SSILD

Letting go. Yes, there's some drowsiness there but it's really remote. I just *KNOW* there are some LDs in me waiting to happen, just waiting for me to sleep. My strong intention setting at bedtime is probably keeping me up. Also, I went to bed earlier, in a very firm strict re-setting of my sleep schedule.

Let go on exhale, let go on exhale, total physical and mental relaxation, empty the head, LET GO on exhale....and at some point I fall asleep.

08:57

There were a lot of little scenes, very jumbled, took me quite a while to make sense of them during recall, didn't totally succeed.

+ I found the cat's laser pointer pen, it was by the sink in a <glass of water?>, I try the controls, I poke around and find the button that activates the laser. A bunch of weird stuff has grown around the head of the pen, sort of a ferny-forest of white plastic tendrils, I have to move them all out of the way so that the light beam can shine. I mov e down the hall to the room where the cat is (it's dark), I shine the beam, I see the beam shining through the air and hitting a chair, and the cat <bats at it?>

+ I drive my son S2 to wine store, and I remain in the car, and wonder if anyone will say anything about that, I see a little bit of the store inside the door I see containers on the walls. I watch S2 through the glass window being shown the wine by a clerk, they walk to the left side of the store at the edge of the window, I see the clerk take out a sommelier sampling cup-thing and pour two samples from what look like thermoses, I wonder if I can try the samples but I'm driving. <S2 is too young to be drinking, should he be sampling it?>

+ girlfriend montage:

My GF invites me over to her place on the phone, she wants me to arrive at 11:15pm, I say I can't do that because it's too late and my parents won't let me, I think she may think I'm a wuss for being controlled by my parents so much.

I'm with my GF, she's really mad at me, the way I speak to her, she gives several examples of phrases I've used which make her mad, she thinks I'm being impertinent and short with her, I disagree and ask her to give me a concrete case where I did this, and I give an explanation that I was <talking to a friend in some way that made sense that I used that phrase?>

I <follow her?> enter her room feeling bold about we can have some "action", I catch a glimpse of someone else <her sister?> in the room and immediately turn to leave back out to the hallway, I get a bit bolder and think "no I'm going to do this" and re-enter the room, <don't see anybody else there?>, see my GF then make for the door again to leave, I see her mother (darkish skinned middle-aged woman wearing glasses quietly sitting in a chair not paying me any attention), I walk past her without saying anything, I think, heck, it's my GF's mother, I should at least introduce myself, I go back to her, extend my hand to her saying "Hi, my name's <my name>" and wait for her hand, she offers it and I shake it, I notice that she's REALLY small, like midget-proportions about 2-3 feet fall max and think that this explains why my GF is so petite.

I can't remember my ex-wife's (false memory) name, and that bugs me. She had blonde hair and I recall taking her to my bed in my room.
-----------------------

+ I walk up to a "sleeping" girl lying down and bend down to kiss her, as I'm about to touch her lips her lips pucker up, her eyes are still closed, I get lucid at some point during the fairly long (10 seconds, yeah that's long for me when lucid, sigh) deep "snog", I'm thinking about trying to maintain focus and awareness but I wake up/transition (not sure which).

+ Walking into a party in a fairly dark room, some guys are mixing/distilling a drink flowing out of a tube into a (blue?) pot on the ground in front of them, a girl is standing against the wall and puking on the floor, something about little gummy candies (either in the puke or the drinks) and she was looking at them. I recalled after walking around a bit that I should gave goosed the busty but unattractive girl I saw when I first entered the party.

Heading up a spiral staircase don't want my friends to see me, they see me, I look into their bright blue eyes, one is a young JoDu, they say something to me but I quickly walk on past them (prelude to the party?)

+ closely contemplating a home-made electronic telephone. The handset is to the right of the phone body which is large and square (1 square foot) and is covered in some sort of plastic/cellophane. Inside underneath the cover and top of the phone body can see a glimpse of a circuit-board. The handset does not sit up right against the body of the phone, I reach in there and pull out a <sock? wool cap?> and it then fits better.

This lucid was particularly long, and I was quite caught up in the action, so parts of my memory are foggy--will do the best that I can!

I am in a futuristic society, and am experiencing this dream via observation (I have no body). A traitor is being drawn out of hiding by his friend, a high-ranking politician. They are sitting in a living room, having a chat, when the politician friend pulls a surprise interrogation. The traitor is caught of guard and does not know how to respond. The politician is very friendly, and suggests that even if the friend confesses, he can use his influence to get him out of trouble. It seems that the traitor has been teaching a young kid how to LD, and the dream seems to compare this to watching stars--very innocent with a bit of wonder. They have been having 33 minute long lucid dreams together.

Transition to a fellow walking down the street (may have been LouaiB, though I am not entirely sure about this). It is night, and then neighborhood scene is very peaceful and lovely. Suddenly, this man stops and says, "This is a dream!" He then realizes he has had six lucid dreams that night, and he's very put out about this, as he feels he has "stayed awake most of the night lucid dreaming"

The next moment I am aware, I am in darkness, surrounded by a myriad of loud voices coming from all different directions. "Stop!" I finally shout. "I know this is a dream!" Everyone stops shouting, except for one small voice. Hanging there in space, I decide to focus on this one voice, and use it to help me rebuild the dream from out of darkness. Slowly, listening to the voice, I find myself lying in bed (but still in total blackness). I then begin to feel my body sliding backward, and off the back edge of the bed, as though the whole thing had been tipped upwards. I realize that this is just dream sensation (similar to a WILD) and decide to help the dream by slipping backward off of the bed. I fall through darkness.

As I am falling, Al Bundy's head (from Married with Children) appears in front of me, laughing:

I continue falling, wondering what in the hell incubated this dream and realize I am in some sort of air duct. Looking up, I see some falling object, breaking the laws of gravity as they fall faster than I do: pillows! I get really excited about this, and start punching pillows. I feel my excitement begin to rise, however, and try to calm down a bit so that I don't wake up. I finally end my fall by landing in a huge pile of pillows.

I find that by directing my awareness to the pillows, I can make them explode into clouds of feathers. I do this several times, before trying to channel energy into a pillow for the same effect. This doesn't work (although the pillow does heat up) in part, I think, because I am thinking too much about it. I don't care enough to keep trying though, and toss the pillow away.

I exit the pillow room through a metal hallway. Off to the right is a small room, with my dream guide (!) sleeping in a chair. His feet are up and he has a snooze bubble expanding and contracting from his nostril. While this may have been a false memory (as I have no memories of ever having met a dream guide), I think it was actually part of the dream that I had forgotten from earlier. I decide not to wake him up, as we had already had some kind of interaction earlier in the dream.

I walk up three short steps, and enter into a large make-up room (with mirrors like you would see in an actress's make-up room). There are mirrors all around, but this make-up room has no walls, and it is not possible to explain what is around the make-up room--it is just nothing at all. I see a woman on the other side of one these big mirrors and tables, and decide to see if she is good looking. As I move to get a better look, I realize it is my sister I say hi to her, and she replies, "Good, you're up."

"Nope," I say, moving past her, "Still dreaming." I make a note that the dream is trying to send me false awakenings. I manage to see my own reflection in the mirror: I am wearing a grody white nightgown, my hair looks unwashed, and my eyes are bloodshot. Basically look like I've fallen off the wagon.

I exit this area into a smaller living room, where I see some people from waking life that I know. They are all prepared to go to a wedding, and are dressed very nicely. At this point, I receive a false memory about needing to be awake for a wedding, but I am not fooled. Two of the people are an old crush and her husband. I take this opportunity to tell old crush how beautiful she looks. The husband tries to shake my hand, but he is super tall in dream, which pulls my arm way up into the air. I pull his arm down and shrink him a bit I then pat the third person, a kid playing with a dog, on the back. The kid tells me to wait until he is done petting the dog. The dog is groaning and basically enjoying being pet. As I am watching the dog, the dream begins to destabilize. I stop for a moment to feel whether or not this is real instability, or made up instability, but it is real and I wake up.

All in all, I slept an entire sleep cycle, and estimate I was lucid for approximately 25-30 minutes. Probably one of the most novel adventures ever, especially falling through the air duct. I am constantly amazed at the creative power of the dreaming mind.

1. I had just walked inside of Kroger, a grocery store a few blocks down from my house. As I walked in, I went towards the very right side of the store and started browsing. The store was well lit in some areas, while it was rather dim in others, and in other areas the lights were completely off. I continued down the aisle I was on, and I happened to look far ahead in front of me. Way ahead of me, there was a giant gray sphere. The entire sphere was gray, but it was also glowing purple and the purple glow deepened and appeared more visible the closer it got to the center.
I remembered that this sphere was some kind of "final boss" at the end of a video game that my friends had played at one point. I walked up to the sphere and yelled jokingly at it, "I'm ready to fight you!". It replied in an extremely deep voice, "Good. Do you have all the pieces of the staff and [some other object]?". I told the sphere that I had everything that I had to have in order to fight him. He then proceeded to tell me to give him those objects. I then told him, "Hahaha, just kidding. I have none of the stuff that you want, not yet at least!". He seemed rather annoyed, and so I continued on my way walking.
Suddenly, I heard a crash behind me. I turned around to look and see what all the noise was, and I saw that the entrance of this store was practically demolished. Stuff had fallen everywhere and it looked like somebody did it on purpose. Just then, I saw an armored guy jump about 10 feet into the air, and he was looking at me. His armor was read, and he also had a red helmet. On his armor there were also alot of orange and yellow accents. In both of his hands, he held a long but thin modern silver Katana. Honestly, I thought this guy looked pretty sick, but that changed after I noticed that he was coming towards me really fast.
As I watched him land, I saw him start to sprint towards me. Wasting no time, I started running down the next aisle. I knew that this armored guy couldn't fully jump over each aisle, because each one was really high. This confused the knight and he ended up having to run around each aisle as I did. I knew I wouldn't be able to keep this up forever, so as soon as I got enough distance between myself and the knight, I jumped with all my strength and started climbing towards the top of an aisle shelf. I struggled a little bit, but eventually made it to the top. I remember climbing past all these different types of 12 pack soda boxes. One box was pink, the other blue and black, etc.
Just as I made it to the top however, the entire aisle shelf collapsed and I started falling with it to the ground. All of the sodas on this shelf fell and everything was now really messed up. As I landed on my stomach, on the ground, I quickly got up and started running again. Now the knight was on my tail. I jumped onto the shelf of another aisle, and this time the knight jumped with me. We both got to the top of the aisle, and now there was no where to run.
I stood up and faced the knight. We both stood for a moment, just looking at each other. The knight then took off his helmet, and I noticed that he resembled some type of Japanese warrior guy. He dropped his swords, at this point, I knew that we were about to fight hand-hand combat. Suddenly, the knight grabbed me by my shoulder and started throwing punches to my face and body. I remained focus and got my hands free. I grabbed the knight by his face and for a second I just held his face, not knowing what to do. It then came to me that this guy was going to kill me, so I better do something fast. I then got my thumb and stabbed it into the bottom part of the knights eye, I didn't want to gauge his eyes out, only cause some major pain.
As I did so, the knight let out a scream. I started to move my thumb around inside of his eye and cause more damage. The knight fell to his knees in pain. Somehow, this was killing him. To make sure he was dying, I grabbed one of his Katanas and thrusted it into his side. This time he didn't scream, only tears started rolling down from his working eye. I got on one knee down in front of him, and he started to talk to me. "Don't let anyone tell you what you can and can't do. It is your life, and you are the leader of it. I was weak and gave into my oppressors. They took control of me and sent me to kill you" he said(There was ALOT more to this conversation, and it all dealt with his life philosophy, but I don't remember the rest of it). I looked at him in his eyes and looked at the damage I had caused. His right eye was red and bloody, and the area below his eye was the same. Suddenly the knight fell to the ground and was now dead.
With this I got up and got off of the aisle shelf. I started walking casually again, and kept looking around the store. As I passed one aisle, I saw what looked like a portal. Out of no where a voice spoke to me, "This is the second phase of all water on Earth. When this phase begins, all water will turn into blood and the Earth will turn into hell". (WTF, I'm not even a religious person so no idea why this happened). I then realized that I wasn't looking into a portal, but a "window" into the future, that was showing me what was to come. This really scared me, and I didn't know how to deal with it. Could I stop it? I had many questions that had no answer, and this brought me a deep fear.
I looked into this "window" of the future and saw a large body of water, and there was no land. The water was all red, but more of a cherry kooliad red. All spread out in the ocean, were small particles of red matter. It looked like there were tons of small red spheres. The red of these spheres was much more deeper than the color of the ocean. I stopped looking at this "window" and continued on throughout the store. As I did so, I came to a section of the store where it was really dark. The lights were off, but no one really cared.
I remember that someone had given me 10 dollars earlier, and I wanted to spend it. I passed near the bakery section, and it was huge. The entire bakery section was filled with all kinds of cookies and other desserts, the selection was really big. It was like nothing I had ever seen before. I then put my focus onto a room to the left of me. I couldn't tell what it was. I walked up to this room and read a piece of paper on the wall that was titled "Swimming". "5$ for 10 minutes. 10$ for 30 minutes." I thought why not, because I hadn't swam in forever.
As I was reading this paper, I noticed that two cookies had appeared in my hands, and I started to eat them. They were really soft and their dough was nice and chewy. One cookie was a combination of two cookies put together and had a layer of whip cream in the middle, and the cookies were yellow. The other cookie was blue, but there wasn't really anything special about it. I continued reading down the paper about swimming, reading the finer details, and as I did, a young black child came up to the lady standing next to the pool door and started asking her about watermelon(I swear I'm not racist lol).
She started talking about watermelon cookies, and that she wanted some. While she was doing so, I found myself eating an oddly shaped watermelon. This watermelon looked like a long sausage. I took the outer layer of it off and exposed the inside of the melon. It was still red, and it looked ok so I took a bite out of it. It tasted like a watermelon cookie, and I think after the first few bites I dropped it on the ground. After this I payed the lady in charge 10 dollars so I could go inside of the big room and swim for 30 minutes. She took the money and told me to wait for a few minutes while the other kids finished their session.
While I was waiting, I looked through a window, which had just appeared, and saw alot of kids playing around inside. There were 3 pools inside, one was shallow for little kids, one was a Jacuzzi type pool, and the other was a big pool for the big kids. After waiting for about 5 minutes, the lady let me inside. When I got inside I went to the far end of the room and went to the shallow pool to get ready. I sat down and put my glasses in my glass case. I accidentally dropped my lens cleaner wipe into the pool. I picked it up immediately and as I did so, I heard a deep voice say to me, "Yes, put the wipe back in the case." It was a very different voice from any that I had heard previously.
Oddly enough, the wipe was super dry when I took it out of the pool. It was like it had no moisture in it at all. I put it back in my case and put my glasses in along with it. I started to close my case but I realized that I didn't put my glasses in all the way, so I had to fix them and then close the case again. After this I was ready to swim. I waited for some more kids to leave because it was a little crowded. One kid came up from behind me and ran his fingers through my hair. He was wearing red swimming trunks, and kept doing this for a few seconds. He then continued walking and left the pool area.
I don't remember swimming, and I think the dream ended soon after the kid left.

2. I was inside of my house and it was daytime. My dad had left a the house a while ago and now I was alone. I was walking downstairs to get something when I started hearing banging on my front door. I looked through the window to see who it was, and I saw two men and realized they were trying to break in. One man had long black curly hair. His partner had short hair. I hid from these men in the living room, which was the first room on the left once you walk in. My dads recliner was in the corner and so I hid behind it to where the burglars couldn't see me.
I looked up for a moment, just to see if they were making progress with breaking in, and they saw me. The long curly haired guy made eye contact with me and looked really furious. I got really frightened and got out my phone to call 911. As I did, I looked out the window again and saw my dads truck pull up into the driveway. I put down my phone because there was no need to call 911 now. My dad came in through the back door and the burglars were still trying to break in through the front door. My dad came over into the foyer right in front of the front door and I told him what was going on.
Immediately my dad pulled out his handgun and told me to wait here. He opened the front door and shot the guy on the left first. The long curly haired guy tried to hit him with a white pipe, but my dad blocked him and shot him in the head. He walked back inside and closed the door. I went with my dad to the diner table and we sat down and chilled. My sister was already at the dinner table before we got there. She saw what had happened. Out of no where, I saw what appeared to be an officer walking towards us from our china room. I told my sister, "I bet you thats a cop officer who's here to congratulate dad and make a news story out of this."
However, as this person got closer to us, I realized that it was my old ROTC instructor from sophomore year, Sgt. Twine. "My god", I thought to myself, "He's going to try to get me to join ROTC again isn't he?". Once he got up to our table he started talking to my dad about how I should join ROTC again. He was dressed in some kind of uniform, but it wasn't the air force uniform. Sgt. Twine then asked my dad if he could talk to me in the living room about it. My dad let him, and with that I went with Sgt. Twine over to the living room to talk. The lights were off in the living room and it was pretty dark.
As I already predicted, he started to talk to me about joining ROTC again and how it would look good for when I went to college. I told him that I didn't want to go back to ROTC( I hated it, and I never want to go back). He kept trying to persuade me. The next thing I remember, I'm in the car with my dad and we are giving Sgt. Twine a ride to the airport. During this ride, He gave me a silver badge of the rank Sergeant Major. It looked really nice, and Twine also offered me something else if I joined back, I think it was a barrette which was red in color. I continued telling Sgt. Twine that I didn't want these things, and that I didn't want to join ROTC back.
Once we got to the airport, we dropped Sgt. Twine off. He got out of the car and walked into the airport, but he had forgotten the silver rank and barrette in the car, and I sure as hell was not going to take them. A minute later he came back and I gave him the rank and the hat back. After that he walked into the airport and I didn't seem him again.

3. I was inside of my house again and it was daytime outside. My friends Dylan, Patrick, and Trey were all over and we were talking in the foyer right next to the front door. I was telling them about the party I was going to have and how they were all invited to come. We talked about this for a few minutes, and I continued on to tell them that the party was later today. Suddenly the door bell rang. I looked out the window and saw what looked like my friend Thomas' mom. However, when I opened up the door, my friend Tara was there.
As I looked outside, I noticed that it was now completely dark outside, and it was nigh time. "Hey I'm here for the party", she told me(WTF I just now only told my friends, how does she know about it?). "Sorry Tara, but right now I'm having a private party with just my friends, but you can come back later for the public party. It'll be a few hours from now and you can come then." She said ok, and with that I walked outside with her and I talked to her for a little bit. I started feeling extremely attracted to her, and I even thought about asking her for some "Birthday sex".
I continued on to tell Tara that I had a dream about Sgt. Twine(Wow, telling a DC in a current dream about a previous dream I just had lol), and I told her that I was never going back to ROTC ever again. She told me that Sgt. Twine wasn't so bad and that she was staying in ROTC. Out of no where an orange hatchback pulled up in front of my driveway/sidewalk. I remember telling Tara to run because I had no idea who these guys were and I thought they were going to try to kidnap us. I ran back to my front door and was about to run in and lock it. I looked back and saw that Tara wasn't coming. "Jaron, Its okay, I know these guys. They're my friends", she told me.
I came back outside a little embarrassed and said , "oh okay, my bad". The orange car in front of us was full of black dudes, and there were only black dudes in it. I'm not racist, I just thought maybe they wanted some trouble and I wasn't going to try fighting 4 black dudes. Tara then got in the car with them and she told me that she'd be back in few hours. With that, they drove off. I continued standing outside in front of my door, just watching cars pass peacefully. As I was standing there, I heard a weird noise. I stopped and listened and it sounded like the wind(When I woke up I realized that it was my fan in waking life and it sounded the exact same). I thought nothing of it and continued chilling.
I remember a van passing by with its headlights on, and for some reason when it passed me I started thinking about god and how I was doing wrong and stuff like that(Once again, I'm agnostic. This must be my unconscious feelings for Christianity or something, not sure though). I looked around and the atmosphere was rather dull at the moment. Everything was quiet except for the wind that I heard, and I was the only person outside. As I continued chilling outside I remember feeling the humidity on my skin, I hate humidity so I was really annoyed by it.

4. I was outside in my driveway, but it looked alot different than my driveway from waking life. It was the afternoon and the sun was going down, but the sun had only just started to set so it was still daytime. I was with alot of my friends, some of which were, Dylan, Patrick, Trey, and some other guys I had known from school. We were all just chilling. I noticed a line of small penny boards on the right side of my driveway. I went over to them and there must have been at least 10 boards.
One penny board was red, and it was the size of a shoe, and it had the same shape of a shoe except for the fact that it had a flat top surface so you could ride it. On the board was the word "Adidas" in white. I remember thinking, "I never knew Adidas made penny boards". I picked up the board and checked it out for a second. I noticed that its wheels were really close to the board all together, and it didn't look right. It looked like the "low rider" of all skateboards, and I knew I wouldn't be able to maneuver as well with it.
Next to this board was another penny board with the name "Burton" written on it, and remember thinking to myself again, "What? I thought they only made snowboards". But since I saw right in front of me, a penny board with the Burton brand name on it, I figured I was mistaken. I asked my friends which one I should ride, and they all said the Adida's board. I picked up the board and carried it to an open spot in the driveway. After that, I put it down and took off. My friend Dylan started riding with me, but of course on another board. We rode around in the middle of the street for a few minutes, and I think once or twice we had to get out of the way because a car was driving by.

5. I was on a beach, and the sun seemed like it was setting. The sky was slowly starting to get darker and it was a pretty clear sky. I turned around and saw Tara standing front of me, in a bikini. Now my animal insticts really started kicking in and I wanted to lay her down right there on the beach and fuck her. Fortunately, I contained myself and walked up to her. I pulled out my phone for a second and as I turned it on I saw a picture of Tara on my screen, and my phone was telling me that she was now going by some other name. It was telling me that she had changed her name to "Sam [something]", I don't remember the last name but I know it was a long and complicated last name.
Tara went into the water and started to swim. I looked down at the sand and saw a random paper airplane just sitting next to the water. I picked it up and an icon popped up in the space above the plane and it said, "Woah Plane". I's guessing that was the name of the plane. As I held it in my hands, and started to aim somewhere to throw it, I saw a set of two lines appear where the sand and the water met. Now I could clearly see this trail where I was supposed to throw this plane. I didn't want to throw it to the right of me, so I turned to my left side and inspected the area to make sure no one was in the way. A little ways down I could see a man in dark red swimming trunks and he was setting up his orange towel on the ground so he could lay on it.
I decided that I didn't want to interfere with him, so I didn't throw the plane his way either. I turned behind me and threw it that way. As I turned back around, I saw that Tara had disappeared. I was about to go swim, but as I put my foot in the water I felt a really strong undercurrent and decided not to go in(No idea how there was that strong of an undercurrent in 1 inch deep water). I remember walking away from the beach and going near some amusement park area. I was with some black dude who was my "friend" even though I didn't even know him.
As we walked near a ride, I got my comb out and combed my hair because I remembered that the kid from the inside swimming pool inside of the grocery store(the earlier dream) had messed it up. After I fixed my hair I put my comb back in my pocket and continued walking with my friend. I looked at a fence in front of us, and saw how old it looked. It was a faded brown and looked like it was about to fall apart. I don't remember the rest of this dream.

6. I was watching T.V. and on the channel I was on, I was watching an empty boxing ring. I heard a male announcer say, "The woman that has it all, here she is!". Suddenly a thick tan woman appeared in the boxing ring and started rolling around on the ground. After doing that for about a minute, she got up and started dancing and doing poses. I looked at her crotch and saw that she had a vagina, but right below her vagina she had a penis.
I thought this was so gross, how could anyone like her? A girl with a penis? Ugh. She continued doing poses and I noticed alot of other weird things about her. Slowly as she was dancing, she started gaining alot of weight. I looked below her crotch area again, and this time, she had a series of brown greasy tentacles just hanging and swinging around, but her two genitals were still there. Another lady came into the ring and held up her tentacles for everyone to see. The crowd roared in approval and I could tell that everyone was in love with this "lady", but moreover, thing. The entire crowd thought that she was unbelievably sexy and everyone wanted her.

I am returning from a business trip. I have been away for quite some time, and am ready to be intimate with my wife. She is on the phone with her sister, and the door is shut. She finally emerges, and I tell her I would like to have a talk. We go into the bedroom together.

My wife then makes an odd comment. "Men are really just a pile of sex cells, so I think you just need a good fuck."

In dream, this actually sounds kind of good, and we start getting into bed (the bedroom, of course, is not our bedroom, and my wife doesn't even look like herself--but why should that seem weird at all? ). But then I realize, no, I would like to just talk and spend time with my wife. For some reason now I open up the drawer next to the bed, and find a pistol in the drawer. We do not own a pistol, and so I demand to know why there is a gun in the house.

My wife gets defensive. "You were gone for so long!" she says. "I needed some way to protect myself!"

My dream thinking then comes to this conclusion: some man has purchased this gun for my wife, and she has been having an affair. "Who bought you this gun?" I shout.

I then glance at the sliding glass door, and see a man standing there, and it hits me: this is her lover, looking in on us. I am really pissed, and jump up to confront him. At this point, a mob forms outside. The neighbors begin chasing this guy, and he runs off. One of them, an older man, beckons to me through the glass, and I think, Alright, let's get this motherfucker! A group of the neighbors drag my wife out of the house but I am running after her lover now.

While I am running, I notice that some of the neighbors are people I know from high school. Am I dreaming? I wonder, as people from high school are a dreamsign for me, but the dream plot is so demanding and fast-paced that I quickly forget about state checking and continue pursuit.

The neighbors have now cornered the man near a dumpster (and I think he may have even been in the dumpster). My first thought now is of the pistol--where is that gun, so I can shoot this asshole? I realize that I left it back at the house, though. Turns out there is now a baseball bat in my hand. It's long and black and purple, and looks like a nerf bat. It's heavy and solid, though, and I think that I could easily kill someone with it. I heft it and prepare to hit my wife's lover, who is on the ground in front of me.

Then I suddenly realize I don't need to do this. There isn't any good reason to kill this man. I back off, and feel a bit better. We then become friends in the dream (though my memory is a little fuzzy here). Once I've decided to not act in violence, the crowd begins to disperse. Soon I am by myself, walking back through the neigborhood. At this point it strikes me--oh yeah, I wanted to test reality. And of course, I am dreaming.

I am a little annoyed, because I realize I've spent a good bit of dream time on "dream drama," and not doing things that are constructive or fun. It's nighttime, and I decide to fly through the neighborhood a bit. I lift off of the ground easily, but begin to have some hangups. I instinctively revert to the swim method, but when it doesn't immediately succeed, I just hang there in midair, remember that I'm not doing the swim schema anymore, and reassert my intention of flight. I begin to fly normally, without dream body movement.

I then realize I am slowing down, but I think to myself, no, I'm flying fast, and then I am flying fast. The wind is whipping past my face and it feels really wonderful. All around me though, the dream is beginning to get blurry, and the darkness is increasing.

In the past, I have associated dream darkness with waking up, and so assume the dream is ending (as it had gone on for quite a bit already). However, I still attempt some stability techniques. I shout, "Increase lucidity!" and some sharpness and clarity does return momentarily, but then begins to fade again. At this point, the dream scene is retreating away from me at top speed, and I am stuck in some kind of dark tunnel vision. My thought at this moment (unfortunately) is "I've got to try to get back to the dream scene" and I leap forward with all I've got.


I slam into the bedside table at my old apartment complex, breaking the lamp in the process. Glass is everywhere and I assume that I have broken REM atonia and moved in my sleep (which is unfortunately something I tend to do). As I am cleaning up the glass, I hear my wife cooking in the next room, as well as Frank Sinatra singing from the stereo. I then receive a false memory of Frank singing all night. I wake up shortly after.

Side notes: The "Loony Tunes Retreating Dream Scene" is something that has happened before, and something I plan to recognize as a false awakening the next time it occurs.

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.

8/19/2014

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.

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.

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.

Dream Fragments:

Spoiler for Mature Content :

I'm watching the a porn star getting fucked by her ex boyfriend War Machine. I could see a close up of her face. Another man is now having sex with her. Both men had large penises.

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.

#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.



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.

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.

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.

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:

and plan an encounter that calls for her to sit down. I look and see a counter with chairs that might work and I maneuver her there and sit her down and turn to face her. I pull my pants down (with some difficulty) and reach for her head, she's pulled away some, I do a jedi mind trick ("it's my dream you have to do what I want to") and she leans forwards, and right before the magical moment

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:

and tell her to "show me your tits." I'm prepared to jedi mind trick her but she complies and starts taking off her top. I'm standing there watching and taking a drink from the water. I think this is taking too long. She gets her top off and I see her skin she's wearing a bra. I get quite excited, she starts taking off the bra and I

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

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.
