I GOT A LUCID DREAM!!!

First, there was a long non-lucid, though.

I was driving and a friend of mine was next to me. He was on his phone and then he freaked out cause a girl had posted a picture of a guy kissing another guy. He kept saying "I thought he was straight, but maybe I have a chance with him!" Then, he insisted that we had to find her.

Which was okay since I saw her driving close to where we were. She was driving really fast, in a crazy, dangerous way. I couldn't follow her, so I made a turn and then we saw an ambulance and cops in front of our house. I stopped there cause we knew the people who lived there.

They were Will Schuester and Emma from Glee. In my dream, he was our teacher. When we got to the house, we found that she had lost their baby (apparently, she was pregnant). We told Will to stay away from the house for two days that we'd get it cleaned for him, there was blood everywhere. He thanked us.

I got with the Glee kids and I split them in some groups. We agreed we'd clean the house the next day.

I went home and talked to my cousin, we were all living in the same house. I had gone to the bathroom and then my very old grandma opened the door. I was pissed off that I couldn't do my business.

I talked to two of my cousins plus a friend of ours and we got ready to go and clean Mr. Schue's house. When we left, my ex was driving the car. There were some crazy guys messing with us and they said they'd rape me. I made her block their car, they lost control snd a huge accident happened.

We finally got to the house and I woke up.

Now the lucid one!

I had bought this huge machine, it was like a 90s toy. You could out songs in it and then dance to them. I knew that Lea Michele loved this toy, so I took it right in front of her building and waited.

She got home and saw me there with the thing. She freaked out and asked me if she could play. I said that sure, she could. She chose a song and danced (there was no music in my dream, though).

Then, she sat next to me and we got really close. I wanted to kiss her, but I remembered that must be lost of paparazzi around and hesitated. Lea sighed and said "it's hard being alive", and I'm sure she said alive, but meant famous. Go figure.

Anyway, here I was, sitting next to THE Lea Michele and she wanted to kiss ME. DREAM!!!

Me: Well, you do know this is a dream, right?
Lea: *unsure* Uh, duh, of course I do! *looking around, confused*
Me: We can do anything we want to, it's not real.
Lea: So... this is a dream...?
Me: Yes.
Lea: This isn't real...?
Me: No.

Aaand we kissed!

Now I feel bad that I didn't do any of the tasks, but... kissing Lea Michele is always a priority!

I also have two tiny fragments. I remember looking for a bathroom, my dad was helping me.

I also remember being on a bus.

9/2/2013, 10:00-7:10

I woke up twice. From 3:26 to 3:30 I was up, and drank some water. I also woke at 4:55 till 4:59, and also drank some water then. I did a mantra the second time: "I realize I'm dreaming when I'm dreaming." I had three dreams and a possible dream fragment:

Dream 1:
(10:00-3:26)

I moved into an apartment above the bagel shop in the town I live. It kind of looked like a hotel I went to once on vacation in Virginia. It was dark and a little dirty. Dad, Mom, and J were there. There was also music playing, too. I forgot the lyrics I heard.

Dream 2:
(3:30-4:55)

I was at N's house. We were playing a Halo game. It didn't seem like anything I've played before, so it probably was an imagined Halo 5 game. I don't remember what we did. After going to N's, I apparently visualized the track at school and started running there.

Dream 3:
(4:59-7:10)

I was in a giant city. The streets were vacant, though. I was being chased by the police and probably the military. I found many very awesome vehicles lying around the city. One was a "hover cycle", with a giant gun on the front! There was also a jeep, probably. I also eventually was able to hijack a tank from some guys, Mercenaries style! I remember skyscrapers around the area with the hover cycle and jeep, and residential suburb buildings around the place I hijacked the tank. The military and police were constantly shooting at me and following me, too.

Dream 4:
(probably 4:59-7:10)

I remember something about a water park.

I was on a train. The train stopped and I got on the roof of the train to climb a tree with some people I knew. One of them was Daz.
We were trying to find good trees which had easy access to higher points of the tree.
I found a good tree, to tried to get Daz to come and have a look.
I was now in the tree with a whole group of people. They were climbing it with me. I had a feeling of the tree not being special anymore, now that there was other people up here with me.
I was now face to face with one of the groups members, he looked pretty intimidating. I had a feeling that they were some kind of tree pirates and want to stamp their approval on all the good trees.
We had a bit of a fight to try and see who was going to claim the tree?

The pirate that I was fighting with, had now walked off into the kitchen area of my Auntie R+B's house. The man I was looking at was now a female, or at least acted like one. She came back with a syringe in her hand, and told me she had cancer or something.

I made my way into their main bedroom. I was on the bed and noticed a female naked, sticking her ass out at me, bent over. Her body looked amazing, but I never saw her face.
With no hesitation, I got my dick out and was sliding it in and out of her, it felt amazing.

This dream is the product of me being throughly stressed out after trying to cook something for my fiancée. Some grease splashed onto the eye of the stove and it caught on fire. It went out in a couple seconds, but it was enough to freak me out and cause a wicked stress headache. I laid down on the couch to rest when I fell asleep and had this crazy ass dream, and I don't cuss, so you know it's crazy.

I was standing in this empty town square. I looked around until I saw a single guy come running up to me out of nowhere. This low music started building up when I saw him, and got louder and louder the closer he got, and then when he reached me things went quiet and he shouted"DO THE HARLEM SHAKE!" Then the music kicked up and people swarmed into the square and started flopping their limbs around. The music played loudly and I was kinda just standing there, watching with my eyes opened up in surprise. A different guy came up to me and shouted in my face "Do it! Do the shake!!" He ran away without waiting to see if I would, then dropped down onto the ground and flopped around like a fish. The rest of the people followed suit until I was surrounded by a bunch of flopping humans. I watched for a while until a teenager near by shrieked like a banshee, as loud as he could "HARLEM SHAAAKE YAAAAAAA!!" Then I woke up.

I kind of just laid there, wondering what the hell had just happened, when I started laughing and had to write this down.

Date: 31st Aug

Pre bed: 200mg valerian, calcium&magnesium

Total sleep time: 7 1/2 hrs

Comments: The night started not so well, as our guest was leaving and traveling in the middle of the night. No, we are not vampires.

Early mini-ld fragment (+2hrs): I am in our family friends' building, it is dark at night and I am running from the thought of something like an alien that can't be beaten up. As I go up the stairs, the last floor keeps on changing. I become lucid but still involved with the dream, I try to figure a way out of the situation. Our family friends (she and him) also appear up there and there are some thoughts of realization? about them and talking. She then says something rude to me that I wonder how to post on DV.

I wake up, still holding the memory of the dream in my mind, at that time fully accessible, but I soon fall asleep. I am woken up by our guest's alarm and we all get up, I have a very hard time falling asleep later. I go into unmemorable sleep for hours.

Fragment: I am angry and break a coffee cup

Fragment: I think I was trying to hook to a dream since I recall doing some repetitive movements in the scene and then the dream fading and I briefly acknowledge this in bed.

Pre ld fragment: I am about the witness a heartbreaking family reunion scene

Pre ld dream: We are in the tram/bus and this woman gives us some brochures with specific info about a female criminal. Nobody knows what this is about just me and my friend. Later on, I am in our old place and want to discuss the stuff with possibly my mom. However, before I do that, a classmate of mine gets me alone in another room, insisting to know what's this all about. I tell him I have no idea and get out the room. I see that he has some spy sound amplifying equipment and I go to my room and look for a some paper to write to mom that he is listening to us. He is also lurking behind the door. I grab a notebook and try to hide it from him.

LD: I am on the street in front of our old home and as I look around, realize this is a dream. I decide I would try to speed fly down the street. I take off and fly at high speed, but the street is not quite straight and I initially have difficulty taking a turn and get off track, then do a bit of maneuvering slightly similar to turning while swimming and am fast flying on the street again. It feels great but the only problem now is I move faster than my expectations so it's a bit uncertain what's in front of me. The street changes to facilitate that and now all I can see is trees on both sides moving closer together and I aim to fly straight in the center of all this.

I slow down, pass through the trees and end up facing something like a lake in the middle of an unknown neighborhood. I briefly wonder whether this would count for summon for the competition. There are houses and buildings to the left. I fly over the lake, feeling as if I am running out of fuel and try to land near the houses/buildings. There is a tall wall that separates them from the lake and I am looking for the right spot. I barely make it to the top of the wall with flying near a house that I like. I take a moment to relax and think about my next steps. The place where I have landed is not part of the wall anymore, but is the top of some structure, as if I am sitting on a chimney. I also perceive this thought as the image of the shadow of me on top of this place, right in front of me. The idea that I get rid of my human shape and jump/float ahead comes to mind.

Before I do anything, I take a look around and see that now am standing on an old bridge where there are the remains of large elephant statues in Indian style as part of the structure. They are extremely beautiful, decorations carved in the stone. I look at another one in front of me and see a date 1995, try to memorize it and as I stare at it the 5 changes into 7. I feel it's not a very good idea to keep staring like this as this may destabilize the dream. I remember CL's tech of boosting dream vividness and want to do that and enhance stability as well. I turn around and now there is a small elephant statue in front of me, so I run fingers on its surface and pat the stone a few times.

Right behind the elephant statue is a street that leads to a small plaza with yet another magnificent statue that I am not sure of what but there is an element that looks like wings with bits of gold on the edges/wing waves. There are lots of kids on the street, I notice they are dark skinned, assume they are Indian. A little girl with short hair and present day clothes comes to me and I decide I will engage in a conversation with her and concentrate as much as possible on that and her features (as if rl). She looks at me smiling, one of the happiest DCs I have ever seen. There is something about that little girl which fills me with both joy and sadness and I ask her "Is this where souls live?", she says yes and goes on that I also live here with her and shows me a building (perhaps close to Italian city style) to my right. She says we live together on the first floor. I am not sure I like living on the first floor, but accept this at the moment as I am very curious to see where I live.

The dream ends and I find myself in bed, contemplating whether to try a DEILD but my nose itches plus I am not very sure I want to mess up this memory. Time to wake up...

Been a member for a thousand years and never did anything!! I'll try to be consistent with this from now on. For now, I'll copy/paste what I've relayed to Keitorin and work on getting entries written every morning.

In both sets of dreams I was and looked like myself, but view was almost always third-person, only a few times did I see things through my own form's eyes.

These dreams are from August 31st, 2013:

1. I killed somebody?? Yeah, I was in this house and trying to get away from some policeman for some reason, think I was framed for something (but then went and actually commited a crime lolol) so then I went into a neighboring house and found a little girl hiding inside this high, deep cabinet full of door after door. Apparently some guys were looking for her, I dunno who but I get an FBI impression. Then we're found though, and everything turns out ok except for the cringe I made when shown the policeman's helmet and asked if I knew anything :P So then it's somehow decided I'm gonna take care of the girl because her parents are nowhere to be found and we start coloring Little Mermaid coloring books with crayons.

2. And thennn I was in some kinda game, bit like DN (Dragon Nest). I had to get past this gated bridge with a wall along the water but couldn't without getting a thing from a quest the gatekeeper lady gives me. She told me a riddle so I could go and find it but I can't remember what it was. Then I guess I was like 'fuck that' because I hopped on some big boat and drove it right through the apparently very shitty wall and went on my way. Ain't nobody got time for your silly quests, lady.

3. AND THEN I was in some living room with other people getting ready for a Halloween party but everything was kinda like Christmas because there were lights everywhere, little jack-o-lantern strings and stuff, and presents were going to be exchanged. So in there, my old friend Lindzy calls me and she's with a bunch of other people who are getting ready to come over and she plays a message Mojo from The Wigglian Way podcast left for me, wishing me a happy Halloween and I was surprised and happy XD

Note: I'm not actually sure of the order of the last two, feels like 2 might've occured in the middle of one or something, it was very fragmented.

August 27th, 2013: first known flying dream

I flew! :D Sorta. idk I was on an airship, like a Treasure Planet two-mast deal, except I was at the very front and couldn't see the ship and was moving my body and arms in a way that controlled the flight?? It was weird, but then a bit later I was down near the ground and flying all by myself, but I was getting tired and having a hard time keeping myself up so I was slowly descending while trying to 'jump' higher XD In the end I grabbed onto this telephone pole thingy and slid down it to the ground and that is the first time in memory that I've ever flown! :P

I want to thank my mother for this lucid dream. If not for her rambling to me while I was sleeping I would not have done a successful WILD. Her real time voice brought me just enough out of my dream to have a truly awesome experience.

I wasn't really dreaming anything before I herd my mothers voice in the back of my head, talking about who knows what. I herd it, but I wasn't listening to what she was saying when I found myself in a WILD state, except I was coming from a dream where I was dreaming of nothing. Let me emphasize here: I was waking up from her talking, found my mother was in my apartment, then started to go back into the dream before I was fully awake then found myself in a WILD. I decided to put myself somewhere, and found my vision looking down on a blank world. I realized that this world was mine for the editing and started using incredible lucid control to make entire forests and oceans appear out of thin air, then started populating my world with a variety of creatures of my own making. This world was my canvas, and my limitless mind the brush. I was thoroughly enjoying myself, waving my arms like a conductor as things appeared out of thin air on my very own world when I was woken up completely. My brain latched onto the dream as hard as it could before the mental cord snapped and I was opening my eyes to my apartment and a rather annoyed feeling, while my mother was going on and on condescendingly about how I needed to get my sleeping condition under control. The only thought going through my head was how the heck had she gotten into my apartment.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was walking on some street and some random dog tried to bite me in the arm, but as it tried it was unable to bite through my skin. I said something along the line "Not you", got the arm out of dog's jaws and continued walking further.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was going through some wooden place and then there was some open area, there was a wall with a barricaded hatch. I tore the barricade apart and opened it. I am looking through and there's a railway with some military people, trees and some tall buildings. More buildings appear as i look around and i realize that i am dreaming.
Suddenly i am back at home, at the kitchen, i talk to family DCs that are here and ask some dream control stuff, then i go into another room with a window and start shifting into quadruped stance, but dream fades out shortly.

Dream 3(fragments):

I am watching some pokemon anime and there was something about turning humans into pokemons and there was some black colored pokemon that was related to that, then i realized that i am watching episode not from the beginning and set it to beginning, but then i also realized that i am dreaming and that i would not be able to finish watching it... Then dream faded out.

I tried to DEILD but lost awareness.

Dream 4:

I am in some game and i am going through level that looks like something from Doom, green walls with pipes. Somebody says something about training course and i enter the passage and get to blow up some barrels using some weapon. Then there's another passage and light turns on as voice explains something about night vision, which i turn on. At this point i realize that it's dream, go out of the area back to the start and turn off night vision. As i return i try to expect that there should be flying course, and i find another passage which leads to the open area. The area is L-shaped and filled with lava at the bottom, walls are green and there are some brown metallic platforms. I take off and fly with my wings, and also feel my body changing shape slowly a bit. I also notice that my wings are black colored. I fly around some more and manage grab into walls to quickly change direction. Shortly i notice that i am slowly becoming slightly bigger as well.
Then some DC appears and says that "She shouldn't have left the cage open", i ask which cage and he answers "Your cage" and then adds that "It would be better for you to be in it", before i can do anything dream fades.

This dream is a very long one, but the first 3/4s of it is just the same basic thing happening. This whole dream my person is played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, for some odd reason that escapes me.

The majority of the the beginning of this dream my character is traveling from her home to another home that I think is a place she plans on vacationing. Her ex husband came along as well and this journey to the vacation home is just a bunch of walking along abandoned roads and talking about random things. When the vacation home is finally reached everyone goes to their prospective rooms and winds down. Mainly I was just walking around the house listening to people talk, and it was when I was sitting on the bottom bunk next to my dream ex husband when I realized I was dreaming, because I am not, in fact, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and I do not have an ex husband in real life. Upon realizing this I went lucid. I got up and started staring out the front wall of the house, which was made of glass. I was watching a bunch of creatures walking around and playing with each other in the front yard when I decided I wanted to create something. I was concentrating, trying to make a creature of my own to play with the other creatures, and I succeeded. Unfortunately the thing I made was more of a giant monster then a friendly creature. It was taller then the house, its hind legs were dog legs, it had long, skinny arms with clawed hands, its head was also canine with sharp fangs, and a skinny neck and body. It walked upright, but it was sort of hunched over, and it was fur-less, with pale white, purple spotted skin. I was watching it run around the yard when I somehow got it into my head that I needed to confront it. I went out into the back yard, telling myself that I was crazy, when the monster rounded the corner and started chasing me. I ran away from it to the far corner of the yard, which was fenced with a wooden fence, when I realized this thing would kill me, so I lucidly made myself impervious to damage. Just in time too, because it grabbed me and started lifting me to its mouth. I stuck my hands out and pressed them against its face, then lucidly gave myself the power to burn whatever I touched. Its face started to sizzle and it dropped me. I came to a sudden stop in mid air before hitting the ground, which was one of the perks of me being un-damageable, then got on my feet and started running from it again. I would also like to mention that my running was fa-nominal; I finally got past my mental barrier of not being fully able to do super human things in my lucid dreams without a mental strain and constant concentration. I ran like the wind when usually my running is very slow, like I'm running under water. Anyway, It chased me around, grabbing me, then when it failed to eat me it would drop me. This happened for the rest of the dream until I finally woke up.

All I wanna say is, Julia Louis-Dreyfus.... Really brain, really??

This is a lucid dream I had yesterday morning. The majority was not lucid, it only went lucid near the end but it was at a pretty good point.

The beginning of the dream I found myself living in a world where everything was still in it's natural state. There were no buildings or roads, the earth felt new. I was living in an ancient forest, and one day while exploring I found the edge of the forest and saw that a family had built a small home. I started to get to know them and eventually they considered me a family friend. I decided to live more in the open and built my living area on the edge of the forest where I could see my new friends. I mainly walked around the families property, watching them farm, when I herd news about something huge being built. I went over and saw that a enormous dam had just been constructed, making the river back up to form a lake, and leaving the land on the other side a huge, bare, hole with equipment in it. I just stared at this with awe, but at the same time I was deeply saddened. I picked my way through the hole, feeling unhappy about what they were doing to nature, when a girl about my age (she was played by my ex friend I stopped being friends with in 2011) asked what I was doing and I told her. She went back home and I followed her, intrigued about there being more people setting near by. I found she lived in a community, but a different kind of community. Each person lived in wall-less square sections that were defined by a black line on the ground showing their living space, but they did have a door that worked, even though it wasn't connected to a wall. There was also some kind of force field that when you tried to look into your neighbors living area it blurred your vision not allowing you to see them. I was standing in the girls living area, talking to her, when I realized that I was dreaming, because nothing like this could ever exist in real life. While talking to her I noticed she looked very depressed and I wondered why. At this time I herd some commotion outside and went to go see. I saw that an asphalt road ran between the two rows of living areas and a bunch of kids from them were out in the road talking about starting a race. They were going to start from this end, run to the other end and then back again. I asked if I could join in and they said they didn't mind. At this point, I didn't feel like running, and to make it more interesting I made mario kart vehicles appear by lucid means. The remainder of the dream was us all racing up and down the road while I used some lucid influence to keep myself from wrecking, and to make it even more interesting by making things like ramps appear. I woke up after we had raced a couple times.

After waking up I talked to my fiancée for a bit then tried to do a WBTB but failed as I couldn't go back to sleep. I almost did it though; I started getting some blurred, dream like visions playing before my eyes but just couldn't seem to fall asleep and gave up.

Morning of September 1, 2013. Sunday.



This was recent (last night - seemingly night-long and into the morning), and, like a lot of my dreams, had so many scenes and details, it would likely fill at least twenty pages, so the best thing to do is describe some of the basics and the more “intimate” or more “dominant” scenes.

I somehow end up on an alternate Earth. This alternate Earth is not of the “twin planet” or “shadow planet” variety of past dreams (always in orbit on the opposite side of the sun according to some theories), but in a different dimension of which everything keeps going into an infinite number of other dimensions with endless other “Earths” with the idea that all of space (in “this” universe) is connected to other universes in wave constructs and is represented in theory by a mirror held up to another mirror - which supposedly shows infinity, where each image is duplicated back on itself - yet each alternate Earth in its own part of the infinite wave rather than being only an otherwise identical reflection. Much is the same (language, countries, and mainstream business seems the same), except that the society is fairly different in some ways, such as being more tribal and hunter-oriented (at least in some regions) with older types of weapons, which actually is quite anachronistic considering the higher (more advanced than in real life) technology I see later in my dream, although I guess it is all normal to them in overall orientation. Still, the mentality at times seems rather “primitive” in terms of a more “shallow”/fearful view of strangers and I do not think there are automobiles or certain other inventions. Also, certain types of food, plants, and so on, are quite different.

This almost seems like a very long “life review”, as many scenes relate to my early childhood and young adult years as well as more recent.

The first parts are about my first arriving on the alternate Earth. A couple people help me by keeping me safe from otherwise friendly hunting groups who may be dangerously afraid of my presence and attack me or keep me prisoner. They actually seem almost like cavemen in furs and “primitive” jewelry but with hunting gear from the 1920s. A lady nearly eighty years old seems to give me the most information on my new “home” and where to go before preparing to meet the members of this alternate society. There is some sort of fungus they collect which is used as the “cheese” of this world and collected mostly from the ground near certain forests. At one point, it looks like popcorn lying about on the ground everywhere. Even so, the older lady rudely claims that cheese is just a myth (even though it is visible everywhere - although it is possible she means real cheese which the inhabitants of this world forgot how to make, so it eventually became only legend).

A couple of smaller “monkeys”, but which are also supposedly adult humans (just from a different “tribe”), walk by me with spears (with no threat implied) - seeming just a little more human than monkey, but are only about three feet tall. They openly urinate in close proximity and I become annoyed. This reminded me of a real life period back in school where we had small monkeys in a large cage. They often came close to the students to dig into their shirt pockets.

I cross a truncated bridge nearly to the end, by hanging with my hands (even fingertips) - yet somehow moving along without falling. This is across from another similar (but newer?) structure. My wife is there (although likely the alternate Earth’s “version”) watching from near the bay. I finally get too tired to go on much farther, which does not matter as I have reached the end of the structure anyway. I land on a concrete platform - which is much closer than first thought so that I seemingly only fall about a foot - that serves as some sort of pylon. An elephant walks around on it and for a short time I am concerned I will be stepped on. This goes back to my early childhood in real life where my parents took me to see a trainer with an elephant in the parking lot of a store a few times (photos were taken) but which I was afraid at first and yelling for my parents to close the windows of the car. Also, I only recently caught the play on elephant’s trunk and the word “truncated”, as the elephant was on the last section of the bridge-like structure.

There also seems to be a slight connection to the Echo and the Bunnymen song “Silver”, relating to lines such as “My planet sweet on a silver salver”, “You’re living proof at my fingertips”, “Food for survival thought, mapped out the place where I planned to stay, all the way, well behaved, just in case it slips away…” and I am vaguely aware of its “distant” music at times.

We (again, my “alternate” wife?) and I meet a president-like character. It is revealed that he needs someone who can speak Russian, so I take the role after my wife advises him. He first needs to know the word for “goodbye” for some reason, which is “dasvidaniya”. I also tell him several other words and phrases which he repeats, such as “thank you” (spasibo, but said as “spasiba” as with many spellings ending in “o”), “horosho”, etc. Eventually, he already seems fluent in Russian and turns around to say “Chto (shto) vy znaete o Rossi” (“What do you know about Russia?”) and I suddenly “get” that I am Henry Spencer from “Eraserhead” so I answer by saying “Oh, I don’t know much of anything” which he responds with “Chto delat?” (“What is to be done?”)

The stocky president-like character and I are having another conversation later on. I ask if he is familiar with Russia and if Russia is bigger (making motions with my hands moving out to indicate being of a larger size). Oddly, this seems after the previous scene of the potential of becoming an interpreter (Russian) for this character or is just asynchronous as many dreams are, relative to some sort of “rotational practice” before a later “version” of the same dream (anyway, relating to the alternate Earth of which is thus far very much like “my” Earth historically). At any rate, I ask him about past conflicts and everything is going normally in historical discussion. However, when I mention “Europe”, he looks at me oddly and decides that I am making a clever joke when I talk about the war. He says that that is why he likes me, because I am amusing and have a good sense of humor. I have no idea what he means. I determine that either Europe does not exist on this alternate Earth, that “Europe” means something else in this alternate form of English, I am somehow actually in Western Europe without having known it to this point, or that particular conflicts never occurred (with a strong emphasis on this last idea relative to the smile he has, seeming to indicate Western Europe is the main force of diplomatic relations through all of history in this alternate world).

A later scene involves this alternate Earth being in trouble because of my presence and causing alterations in electromagnetic fields and gravity itself. I see all these changes on a large monitor, along with smaller monitors, similar to a train station - setup via satellite feed. The bottom of the Earth is warping and becoming black at times - there are silver grid lines related to latitude and longitude which also darken and twist even though they are otherwise “imaginary lines”. The alternate Earth, in its twisting, actually seems fluid at times as it almost seems to twist and warp downwards in implied spiral patterns - or maybe it is only the monitor’s satellite feed distortion showing this effect. As I stand there, I can feel the Earth stop and start again. Darkness falls, but then it is daylight again. People are concerned, but we do not seem to be in immediate danger even though the bottom of the planet looks completely destroyed - but it just “warps back” with no significant casualties yet.

A supposed “solution” is to send me away as soon as possible back to my own dimension/universe via a rocket or some such (actually - an alien spacecraft that had landed or crashed years prior to my arrival). However, I am fully aware that the plan is not feasible but follow the president-like figure anyway (who reminds me more and more of Hoyt Axton as he looked in the last days of his life). We go to a far more futuristic building, with a series of automatic doors (reminding me a bit of the opening of the “Get Smart” TV series, but more realistic and silver-oriented, with “smoother technology”). We come to the end of a hall where an alien had been kept for many years. The alien prisoner is like a cross between human and squid, about five feet tall. I wave at him and for the first time in captivity, he seems to relax and waves back with his “fingers” which are small tentacles. He says “Fahkwa”, “Farkwa” or “Farqua” - which seems to indicate his name, his present health status, or perhaps where he is from. This is the one time before in the alternate Earth’s history that a “visitor from elsewhere” other than me was present. However, the creature is not from “my” universe. The other people are glad that I have established communication with him even though he had been kept prisoner all that time. Maybe now, they will work to get him home as well.

Eventually, I understand that the way to save this alternate universe (and stabilize it) is to simply wake up - and so I do.

This dream, as well as seemingly being a very long “life review” type (yet with no precise theme or meaning), also seemed to be a large and near-perfect integrated combination of a number of movies, including: “The Stranger” (1973 TV pilot), “The Philadelphia Experiment” (1984), “Prince of Darkness” (1987), “The Lake” (1998 TV), “The Astronaut’s Wife” (1999), “Another Earth” (2011), and “Area 51” (2013).

It also brings to mind (on a much lower scale) “Melancholia”, although far more like “When Worlds Collide” (1951) than the twin planet/twin dimension themes.

When I was only a kid. Maybe seven or eight years old. I had a strange dream about leaving my grandmothers house in the middle of the night and walking into an alley way behind her home. There, beneath the street light was a man, waiting for me. I didn't know what think of him. He was wearing a black old fashioned suit and seemed kind of intimidating.

When I walked up to him he made me an offer, I could be an ordinary little girl, or I could walk with him into the darkness and see things and do things no one else could. It was that exact moment I believe I became lucid. I was suddenly aware of my surroundings in a way I had never been before. Everything seemed so surreal and I knew that I was dreaming. But I had a very serious choice to make.

The man held his hand out to me and I felt it was the wrong choice. I became afraid and ran away. As I looked back, I saw the man hang his head and walk away into the darkness.

Suddenly I wasn't so sure it had been the right choice.
To this day I regret that choice. I have been trying hard to get back to lucidity ever since. With very little luck. Nothing but a struggle. I'd like to apologize to him, in the future.

This is one of my longer and more interesting dreams and my recall is waning by the second. Let's do this!

This dream was either very long or was an extension of the previous dream (basically a DEILD without the lucidity). I don't remember the first parts, save for that my sister was involved and there was a show that I wanted to watch after school. Now to the parts I remember:

I was sitting in English class. There was some trip you could go on that day. I'm not one for doing after school things, so I refused. Besides, I had a show to watch. I said goodbye to my teacher and went to do whatever I had to do next. The school was not like my real one. After I was done with that, I had to hurry back to my English teacher's room, for whatever reason. The buses were leaving soon! I kept asking people how to get to her room, but the school was a bleeding labyrinth! I finally came across one of my friends and asked him, "What's the fastest way to Mrs. Callahan's (my teacher) room?" He replied, "Well, you can go straight through... (this part eludes me) or you can go through Bavaria at either end of the school." In this dream, there were two regions we referred to as "Bavaria" at either end of the school. These places were locker/shower rooms bathed in piss where freaky German dudes hung out (no offense to German people). For whatever reason, I decided this was my only option. I moved as quickly as possibe through the piss-covered rooms, trying hard to avoid slipping and being caught by a German kid. I tried to used walls to retain my balance, but every surface was covered in piss! I was almost free, but the Germans came after me. As I was about to exit Bavaria, some girls screamed as they saw me (the area looked like a store) and some German tried to grab me. I suddenly became invisible to them and everything became grayscale and there were words at the bottom of my vision. This is where the dream ends.

Again, I apologize to any offended Germans!


*The fear of missing the bus is a common element in my dreams, but this is the first time it's happened in a while, possibly because school starts on Thursday.

I was in a hotel lobby of sorts. The walls were shiny, black face brick. Like onyx. There were also chandeliers (gold) hanging from the ceiling. There was also a reception with a few faceless individuals standing around it going about their business. (I didn't actually take the time to pay attention to these people) I looked on the floor near my foot and there was a board. It was shaped like a ripstick except without the wheels. I stood on top of it and it began to move slightly. I wanted to move forward but had no idea how. It was then that I realised that I was dreaming.
I 'willed' the board to move forward by imagining what that would feel like. The shift in gravity, the adjustments to my balance and the subtle breeze that accompanies a fast acceleration. I sped about around the corridors of the lobby until I hopped off and changed my surroundings. I made the walls join with the floors to form a ramp so that I could carve along the walls and down again. The last thing I remember doing was forming a deep tunnel, like pit and free falling with the board into it.

Last night i was with this girl that i have never seen before and we went on a watercraft of some sort that doesnt exist but as i rode on the back and she drove she said are you ready to go down and i said yes not knowin what she was talking about. Not even a second later she drove us underwater and i saw a glimpse of this magestic city so clearly then suddenly she went back up to the pale skies that lie above the water.She then dove down again and the city was full of color but at we passed through more water we fell through air on to land and i found out that the city had some kind of force field that held the water back past a certain point, this was the reason my mind made up to convince me that it was possible and that i wasnt breathing underwater. At another point i was back in highschool and the ultimate frisbee team was having tryouts and i decided to see if i still had what it took to become a member on the team and when it came time for me to throw my coach said do you still have a good arm and i said you tell me and i completely messed up a long distance backhand throw.
