memorable

This was the first of two LDs from last night. My primary goal was to focus on vividness and I really think it helped. Great vividness on this one!

Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

Lucid #136: Neon

I'm walking along a road at night, going over a (mostly) false memory that I just had a shared dream with my son "E". I wonder whether I'm dreaming right now, too, and with a nose pinch reality check, I confirm that I am.

Immediately I remember my goal of trying to make the dream as vivid as possible before doing anything else. To my left is a strange, 20-foot high stack of flattened stones sandwiching layers of damp newspaper over and over. I run my fingers over the stone and the paper, noting the detail and the way that my hands look as they pass over them. As I listen, I hear the sound of people talking and celebrating, and I think it's coming from just over the other side of this stack.

By now the dream feels really vivid and I begin to climb the stack of rocks. To climb, I squelch my fingers into the soft layers of damp newspaper between the stones and work my way up. My body feels light, so the climb is natural and easy. I climb up to the top, stand on the top of the stack, and look out on a lively scene. It's like an old west town that's just drenched in neon lights. DCs dressed in western wear are walking happily back and forth between wooden buildings covered with neon signs. A young couple shares a laugh, and she leans her head against his shoulder as they walk across the dusty street to what looks like a bar.

The scene is so vivid that I become overwhelmed. I've got this huge grin and I feel like I'm crying with emotion. I wonder whether it's possible to cry in a dream, and laugh a little at the thought.

I jump down to the ground and walk slowly through the dusty street, enjoying the sight of the DCs passing by around me. At the end of the street is a building without any neon lights. It looks like a schoolhouse and I walk up to the door before turning around to look back toward the stack of stone. Behind the stack I see hills lining the horizon. The shape and height remind me of the Hollywood Hills. Dozens of green signs float over the hills, each with the name of a town or city and the city's population painted on it. I try to remember some of the names but it feels like they're changing. I let it go and turn back to the schoolhouse.

I'm in a classroom now that's filled with other parents watching their kids play. There's a fascinating array of toys like train sets that encircle the room, some kind of clunky robot that walks around, and lots of other cool stuff. I see my son "E" playing here as well, kind of jumping around watching the train go.

I glance back up at the other parents, then back down at the room -- and the kids and toys have vanished! Everyone is milling around and talking about what a great time the kids had. I tell them something to indicate that I'm dreaming and walk back out through the door.

The neon wild west town is gone now, and I step directly out onto a street that's busy with pedestrian traffic. Across the street I see an Olympic swimming pool built into what looks like a big basketball court. I think that I'll use it for the "Great Barrier Reef" Task of the Year.

I start toward the street. Two young women are talking as they walk past me. I notice that one of them is really cute, mid-20s, dark hair, and very short (maybe 5 feet tall!) I have an impulse to kiss her and as soon as I think this, she turns toward me, smiling. Her friend walk off without her, oblivious and now treating her like a stranger. At first I think this is cool but then I think better of spending my time kissing DCs. Need to focus!

I will the DC to stop crushing on me but something goes wrong with the dream control... and now she seems to actually hate me.

She bares her teeth angrily and walks toward me, her hands clenched into fists. I can tell that she clearly intends to kick my ass. I want no part of any of this and try to scurry across the street but she jogs after me, still looking like she wants to flatten me. I hurry away and kind of wave her off, saying, "Just leave me alone!" Then I turn completely away and ignore her, hoping that she'll disappear on her own. I make it across the street without being mauled, but as I'm getting close to the pool, the dream ends.

FINALLY A LUCID DREAM!!!

I was on this house and my ex was there. She was all over me and we started making out. I didn't want to, so I got her to cuddle. I heard my mum coming in, so I threw my invisibility cloak on my ex (...I had one, who knew?) and my mum was freaking out. She said that a woman that was living with us was looking for her daughter.

We started looking for the girl. My mum turns to me and says that the girl likes roller coasters. We look out of the window and there's a huge one just there. We're suddenly there and we see the girl. She's not on the roller coaster, she's going to jump. There was this huge platform in the sky and people coould jump down, wearing a parachute. We click on a button and we're also up there. We have to jump in pairs, so I hold my mum's hand and we jump.

While we're falling, I realise... IT'S A DREAM!!! But falling is so much fun that I keep going until I remember the competition. I know I need to either bake something or fly. Since I'm on the air already, I decide to fly. I start flying and suddenly everybody is flying around me, but they all look like Barbie dolls. I realise I'm losing the dream, so I focus on making them look like people. They turn into people, but they're flying as if they were swimming. I notice they're going much faster than I am, so I start doing the same.

I finally land on the floor and I'm suddenly back to the house where my ex was too. I look at her and tell her we broke up ages ago. I wake up.

LUCID DREAM YAY!!!

Dream 1

I am riding a huge motorbike in my dream down a very long road close to my house. I think to myself, 'Why am I riding a motorbike, I don't drive motorbikes especially big motorbikes like this. It must be a dream!' I don't fancy taking my hands off the handlebars to do a reality check I'm pretty sure its a lucid dream. My goal is to go to space but I think it looks like a hell lot of fun driving this thing. I decide to go faster, I pull the throttle and the speed increases, I can feel the weight of the bike as I'm driving, it was very heavy, when I turned a slight bit it felt like I was going to fall. I think 'This bike must be a Ducatti' I don't know whay I thought that as I know nothing about bikes. I carry on riding and I hear the sound of another bike behind me. I assume this is my friend as he has a bike. I think it would be quite fun to ride together and maybe have a race. I turn the bike sideways on the road so no cars can get past me. I wait to see who it was. It wasn't my friend. I lose awareness.

Dream 2

There is this type of runway for people with hand gliders to take off on and fly over the jungle. I run off it with about twenty people and start flying all over the top of this jungle, enjoying myself thoroughly. I then land and I go to my family, they are sitting in an outside cafe around a table. I say to them "Watch me, on the hand glider, I will fly over the top of you!" I run off back to the runway and once again I go to take off with various people. Everyone started running and I wasn't, the person in front of me still hadn't strapped himself in and neither had I. I think I will be safe. We take off and the person in front, begins to strap himself in. Oh no, I start fumbling about trying to get hold of the straps but I couldn't get it round me at the speed I was going. I think I may possibly die. I start falling, then I realize I can fly. I begin to fly, I fly over the jungle then instead of flying over my family with the hand glider I do it with nothing. I can't remember if they were impressed or not.

I am then with my family at this other restaurant, across the street I see Walt from Breaking Bad standing by a wall. He starts talking to us. He then begins to tell us about a dream he recently had. In the dream my brother was an expert dream analyzer. My brother then tells him to repeat part of the dream, he does so and my brother announces he has 5 minutes to live. Then my sisters teddy bear flies across out of nowhere and lands on her. I say "everyone thinks this teddy bear isn't alive, it definitely is." My granddad agrees with me. Then Walt just drops dead on the spot. I have to get out of there I run.

I am in someones back garden, there is metal fencing surrounding me. Jessie from Breaking Bad has now come to save me, the cops are after me. We begin scaling over the fences and trying to escape. Then we see Walt, he is carrying a bag, he has grown hair like at the start of the recent Breaking Bad. What? How is he alive, I seen him die? I wake up.

I go toilet in real life and I go back to sleep... the dream continues.

I am in Mexico, the police are still after me. I see a McDonalds, its not like the ones we have in England. It was on a street corner and there was one table inside you had to sit outside. I had to hide in there I think. I walk up to the stand, I feel like I don't fit in and the police will instantly recognize its me if they see me. "One large Big Mac meal" I say. "Oh, and can I sit inside?" I ask.
"Of course" she replies. I collect my meal and go to sit at the only table. There is a young Mexican boy already sitting there. He looks about 12. "Mind if I sit here?" I ask.
"No, no" he says. He looks kind of happy I'm sitting here. He now has someone to talk to. I explain to him that the police are after me and that to never trust the police. I look up out the window and I see policemen searching the streets. Shit. I jump out my seat, get down in the building behind the window. One policemen is standing right at the entrance to the McDonalds and another is harassing a man and his son right outside the window. The son who is about 15 notices me and recognizes me. I put my finger on my lips to signal him to be quiet. I knew that was no use, he was going to snitch. "IN HERE!" I hear a shout. Little prick. I pull out my Desert Eagle. The first man storms in, I kill him. I take out two more. I can hear one inside the restaurant. He was standing by a doorway to the staff area. I take him down and pull out my phone. I open up SnapChat, I begin to video. I put the gun to his head and BANG! I think he's dead. Until on further inspection he isn't, I can see him squirming in pain "AY! HOW COME HES NOT DEAD!" I shout. I shoot him once again, then I put it to his temple and shoot again. "I NEED TO PUT HIM OUT HIS PAIN!" I wake up.

I write this section in my dream journal and go back to sleep... the dream continues.

I am in a shopping mall, I see an old man with a walking stick come in. He looks frail and weak. I notice he has a bob strapped to his arm, then I see him stand next to the boy earlier from McDonalds. NO. "RUUUUUNNN!" I shout to the boy. He begins to run a bit and the man blows himself up. It was only a small explosion only enough to kill himself and no one else. Then the police hear this and begin chasing us. I grab the boy and make him follow us. 3 police men chase after us. We are running up some stairs and they are catching up with us. I disarm one and tell them to get on the floor. The one I disarmed was a more experienced police officer. The other two had only just begun and were 'Level Ones' they lie on the floor begging for their life.

***

I had four dreams this night. I woke up at around 2:30AM - 2:50AM, then at 4:00AM (i planed to wake up, but drifted back to sleep) and finally at 5:30AM .

First dream

I was at my home(apartment), it was night. I was standing in hall, when suddenly I went to kitchen and looked out of window, I was confused how many moons there are , then I went to other side of house and saw a lot of moons there too, except one of them was like real one. Then somehow , I got one of the spots, and it was like small UFO, with rotating lamp on the side. I could see the beams shining, but it didn't illuminate the room. Also the room was totally normal , and I could see some items on the table. Then I showed the UFO to my dad, he seemed uninterested. So I put the UFO on the table.
Later my grandmother appeared at our house , and I told her to come with me. I went to kitchen's window, and showed how many moons there are. Then I led her to bedroom, and looked out of window(I could even see the water on the glass), but the view wasn't good. Then I ran to the living room and showed her the real moon and how many "fake moons" there are. Then I showed her the UFO I got.

Second Dream

The second one was just in the same environment as first. It was also night. I think there was something in the beginning and we were doing it with dad. I think we were experimenting something, as i remember we registered some numbers and tried again.But I can't remember exactly.

So later dad sit at computer again. And when I went to my living room, suddenly I saw the two villains from Pokemon(haven't watched it for like 6 years) on the balcony. I shouted for dad, and told him that there was someone on the balcony. He didn't seem to react at first, but then came. Then when I appeared on the balcony, the guy wasn't there anymore. Only the girl , but i didn't saw her face anymore. Then I started to try stop her, and saw Physics teacher walking on the path that leads to recyclers. I was concerned that she will see me. Then I pushed the girl on the ground.

(I think at this point I in dream realized that I'm dreaming (with my dream's mind,not real one), and tried to stay at it , but the dream faded. And I false awoken. Then the third dream started.)

Third Dream

Then I appeared on the path with my grandmother,(I think sister was there too).

So we walked and then we saw 3 old women. So one of them was Physics teacher, and two random women. We greeted and continued to walk. I think later we met physics teacher again.

Fourth dream

So the fourth dream was the most vivid.
So I don't know how we got there, but I was at the house which was located at the "Old lake". Only it was different because the house was on the hill in end of path. And there was no lake. The house was wooden, and the door was under a balcony, and I think there was an old wooden swing chair next to door.
There was grass around the house and trees where they should be. So the weird thing was that , entering the house , I saw myself in 3rd person as a character like in MySims,but smaller and more blocky. Also my sister was there , I knew that the character was my sister. I saw kitchen like room where we sat. Then when we went out of house , we turned normal. So later I saw my sister on her bike riding down hill, and it was normal, just like when we ride from the lake. Then I think we got back to home couple times.
But then, me and my sister went out and she started to ride down the hill. She told me to ride too , but I took some kind of vehicle but didn't get far.
So I went somewhere by feet. I went through many places I know, but sometimes it was different. I think I went to the left when I got to the crossroad. So there was a mix of the "museum" place and something else. Then I (I think I walked some more) appeared at some strange place (it was urban). I wanted to go home, but couldn't find how. Then I went in some strange building, it was pretty empty. So there was an mid-aged woman who sat at table. I came to her greeted , and asked if she can help me ( she didn't seem too nice). So she asked what is it. I told that I am lost and I need help. But suddenly a muscular man appeared , and said that he couldn't do it(???) . So the woman started to yell at him. So I thought it would be better idea to go away.
So I somehow appeared at a place(I think I went through there when I was going to the strange place), there was a path, and house and there were some people, I think some were kids or teens. So I went to a point , where a big map appeared like in game. So I saw myself walk through places(I could see the names, but I didn't read them) So I searched for my town. And then i went on a region where my town name appeared. (There were some other, and I saw a big palace next to our region also a school like building.) So I kinda appeared the bottom of the path to my house. So I went up the hill and entered the house. I turned into MySims character again. And saw my sister at home. I played with chat commands and emoticons. So I think it ended here.

The MySims and map part was surprising , especially that i could read in dream

The entire dream takes place in a two story house where my fiancée and I live, but not in real life. If this place exists in real life, I want to know about it because it is awesome.

The first part of the dream was concentrated on trying to prove that some people who had come into my house were trying to steal from and harm me. It lasted a while and ultimately resulted in them leaving because I had proven their intentions. I can't remember specifics, only bits of memory.

The second part of the dream started where I was sitting in a chair on the bottom floor, when a cat walked up to me and rubbed against my leg. I stared at it and thought "Wait, I don't have a cat yet?" Then I noticed another cat, and another until there were dozens. I walked into the living room and found they had opened and small window on the wall next to the floor, like those you have in you're basement, and they had also managed to open the screen. They kept pouring in and I knew that they had been the cats living under my house. I managed to round them all up and herd them back outside through the small window, then I closed it and the screen. I walked into the other room when suddenly a lioness walked up to me and started rubbing against me also. I was shocked, what was a lion doing in a rural area. Then after a while of trying to get her to leave, which she refused to do, another lion came up to me. I could tell he was young because his mane was just now starting to grow in, but he had jaguar spots. I assumed he was a lion, jaguar hybrid. All they wanted to do was play with me, and on my way to my mothers room (both my mother and brother lived with me at this point), a black panther showed up and joined the happy, playful, other big cats. I got to my mothers room and woke her up. She asked what were these big cats doing here and I told her they had just showed up. She got up and left her room, then I lead them into the room, ran out fast, and closed the door. My brother was awake and asking what was going on so I told him. He got excited and went into the room to play with them. I warned him that just because they were tame doesn't mean they won't go into hunter mode and try to eat him if he made the wrong move. He ignored me and continued on. I grabbed my phone while my mother explained to me that when lots of cats live under your house it means you have a snake din under your house too, and she knew people that had lots of cats show up only to have snakes pour out of the crevices moments later. I blocked up the widow again and started looking everywhere for the number to animal control. The lions had destroyed my moms room by that time and we re herded them into the down stairs bathroom. My mom said they would just destroy that too but I had to put them somewhere. My brother had stopped playing with them and they were in the bathroom alone. I continued looking for a number everywhere then finally tried the Internet. I found a number after a long, annoying, search and called them. A lady answered and I told her that three Jungle cats had made their way into my house and she told me that someone was on the way. My dad came over and my mom went outside to join him. They were talking about something and I ended up in the backseat while my dad drove my mother and I away. After he rounded the corner I freaked out and said I had to be there when animal control got there or they would leave. My dad argued but finally agreed to turn around. I suddenly got a very bad feeling and became afraid for my life. My dad was driving really fast and recklessly. I told them my fears and he just wondered why I thought that. He missed my road and we started driving in an area I didn't recognize. Suddenly, the realization dawned on me that I was dreaming. I became very relieved and decided I would do a WILD. I succeeded and found I had no patience for a crazy drive around the block so I made the road to my house appear and my dad took it. Upon arrival to my house I lost the WILD and went fully back into the dream, but stayed lucid. I went inside and found the animal control dead in my moms room. My brother said the two lions had bi-polar disorder and went crazy. I saw them and grabbed a piece of meat, then I threw it in the bathroom and re trapped them. They started clawing madly at the door while I called animal control again. They sent another person my way when we all started working on barricading the door with our bodies before it got broken out. They had busted it up to be pretty thin, but we managed to keep it closed, mostly from my lucid influence, when animal control finally arrived. I told him what had happened and he brought in a net gun. We opened the door and he shot a net at them that had special properties to put whatever was inside it to sleep. He asked where they came from and I said most likely someone in the area had raised them without the authorities knowledge. I asked him to check under my house for snakes as well and we followed him down there. We went under the porch and he started pulling up the paneling one by one and found there were no snakes. Instead there was hundreds of rats. They got angry when a flashlight was shone on them and we left. I got stuck under the boards of my porch when my claustrophobia came over me. I started panicking so I teleported myself by lucid means to the other side of the porch and found everyone else had gotten stuck too. Knowing they couldn't do what I had just done, I helped pull them out one by one. Animal control left after that and when I went back inside I found that he had forgotten the big cats passed out on my floor, and they were starting to wake up. I called them and told them they had to come back. I was waiting for them to return when I started thinking about another dream I had had in the past and decided I wanted to know what had happened to it while I was gone. I transported my vision to look at a place I had lived in another dream. I found that it had been bought by a guy with a motor cycle and that made me unhappy. I really liked that place and hated how that dream had ended up, with me having to leave and sell the house. I saw him motor away and found that he had put up a circular motorcycle ramp in the backyard. I was glad that he had kept the tree swing and playground structures though. I was discussing the place with my mom when I woke up.

This lucid dream actually made me very happy after I woke up. I found I managed to do these lucid things with little to no difficultly for the first time hurray for progress.

LD induction attempt:

MILD, then WBTB/WILD

Thursday, August 22 3:30 am

I am part of an IRC class on lucid dreaming. I can't remember exactly what we were discussing though. I'm trying to show everyone in the class something that I feel is super important, though in my dream I don't really know WHY it is important. I just know it is a perfect example for our lucid dreaming discussion. While at the IRC, I am also at a LD forum (not DreamViews, some other forum I've never seen before), and there is a member who's name isn't right. There is a letter that doesn't match any letter at all in the alphabet! I realllly want to share this with the class, but just as I am about to submit a screenshot, I lose my internet connection. This seriously irritates me, because I feel like I HAVE to send this in, it is SUPER important to me, and I am frantic trying to refresh the chat and get it to connect again. Why I'm doing this, I don't know because I lost my connection, meaning I *should* wait for it to come back, instead of trying to refresh the webpage. But, I keep trying until my alarm finally wakes me up.


A note I want to make on this dream. I feel I was really close to lucidity for two reasons. One, I noticed something odd about that user name, and though I didn't understand why, I felt it of VITAL importance to share with the rest of the LD class. Had I managed to reconnect, I wonder if I wouldn't have told them it was an example of a dream sign....TWO, I kept trying to get my laptop to refresh the webpage. I lost the internet connection, therefore I should have just waited for it to come back, refreshing the page would do no good--yet I did it anyway. I wonder if some small part of me understood that it would eventually work if I kept trying, because of the odd way electronics behave in dreams. THEN there's the sheer frantic nature, the NEED to reconnect and show what I discovered to the LD class. It was such a strong feeling, I felt it even upon waking

August 23 2013 - Dream Fragment #1 - I was in a large mansion with my family and I remember walking out and seeing people that were neighbors. I walked out and remember something happening and then them trying to kill me. I walked outside and saw a file cabinet that said a room used to be inside that had pictures of dead bodies and I got kind of freaked out.

Dream Fragment #2 - I see Army members playing cards at a table, and they say that people inside are playing Dungeons and Dragons. I look in and they all look older than I am, so I ask if there is an age limit. They say that I have to be “considerably older”. I remember seeing one guy that apparently wasn’t in the army but had a Call of Duty MLG series shirt on.

Dream Fragment #3 - The house at the start of the dream burned down but yet everyone survived. There was also some kind of monster there. I remember a flashback to me in this chaotic, multidimensional complex with five different directions of gravitational pull. Each room held a Pokemon (weird, I haven’t played it or watched the anime for like a year now :p).

Dream Fragment #4 (This came chronologically before Dream Fragment #1) - My dad and I are shopping at a department store somewhere within 100 miles of my house (can’t remember the town name) for cat treats. They say that are are anti-something to do with electricity, so your cat doesn’t shock everybody it meets (I guess in dreams cats have interesting superpowers ) but another couple grabs it out of my hands and they buy it. We then travel on the road to the house that burned down.

June 02 2013 - Dream Fragment #1 - I am on stage in front of a huge auditorium more or less directing a concert type thing but from the back. The section I am directing consists of percussion instruments that sort of look like this: bit.ly/13xI5AN. They make cymbal crash noises when hit together. They sound pretty good with the song. I see an old man walk up on stage and start to yell. I said that I am directing and he screams that they’re not cymbals but cymbal covers and that they sound terrible. I feel hurt. I walk backstage and still the man continues to berate me. I run out of there and get in a car to drive away. I can’t remember the rest but there is something about my friend and something else about Nyan Cat. I wake up at an unknown time and perform a RC. I am not in the dream world.

May 29 2013 - Dream Fragment/Full Dream (It was long) #1 - I dreamed about going with the people in my math class to a U2 concert somewhere in Boston/New York, and we went in. We got tickets and I saw a candy dispensing machine, and went to get some, but on the way saw a machine making popcorn, and grabbed a handful. I felt guilty and needed to pay for it, but for some reason it was free. I took too long and missed one showing, but there were more. There was an attached hotel with stone walls and more or less primitive beds, and each band showing there had a room for people. I was looking for my room, and couldn’t find it. My mom was staying in the Bon Jovi one, and showed me mine. I felt very unsettled there and decided to watch some TV before turning off the lights. I fell asleep and woke up, and did a RC. I had woken up.

Dream Fragment #2 - I remember something about running, and then something about dying. I also remembered being right outside the math wing at the high school. I snapped awake and sat up in bed very fast. Did an RC, was awake. I then attempted to DEILD.

Dream Fragment #3 Something about a hatchet, and I have a false awakening. I see something about school (even though it wasn’t lucid, the DEILD did something), and wake up. I am awake.

May 28 2013 - Dream Fragment #1 - Cruise ship. Something about 450 million dollars. I have some kind of action sequence and awaken. I do an RC and I am properly awake.

Dream Fragment #2 - I am talking with my friends about games. One of my friends and another kid, presumably my best friend, are playing a small co-op puzzle game, and a kid I know and I are talking. (Very realistic) We seem to go to a video rental store, (not unlike a Blockbuster in terms of shape) and rent some video games. I then immediately wake up, and perform an RC. I am in another dream.

Dream Fragment #3 - Small bubbles are floating around; I can see small knick-knacks in them. The seem very far away, and I can’t reach them. I see one with some platonic solid in it, and will it to come to me, but I wake up for real.

Dream Fragment #4 - I am at a restaurant. (It feels very high up and on a wing of some kind) I see a table adjacent to me, but all the people at it are vampires. I don’t know why, but then I realize the person I am sitting with is a vampire. I do an RC, but then realize I am actually a vampire, too. I wake up for real and it is time to get up.

(Before I write my DJ, I want to say that I've never been to China :-) )

When I came to myself, I was in a strange place looks like a farm. There were full bunch of hay on the floor, and when I try to absorb in the circumstance, there was information about present.
It was a program in universtiy to visit China and seeing inside.
(It seems like I and my brain didn't have enough imagination to make concrete reason why I'm in the country I've never expected and the program I've never do.
Maybe there is a traffic error in my brainhttp://www.dreamviews.com/images/smilies/grin.gif)

As time goes by, there were more informations of that place.(flowing into my mind, I suppose)
We're staying in some kind of hotel now, but there was not much time to unpack our luggages so we just put them in the hotel room.
(The thing is, when my mind reached to the word 'hotel room', I could see images of that room, still it looks like a hostel I saw in the picture of my friend.
But I accepted it is 'a hotel'.
There was a room and a double deck bed. Like this.

( W i n d o w )
(wall luggages bed )
( )
( My view )

In a short while of seeing the image, I thought, 'oh, it's so narrow. the only space left is between luggages and bed.'

And I knew that it is sth like a place for cats. Like a cafe for cats and their owners.
We(I and my friends) entered inside, then there were crows flying over us so we need to bow our head and went through the place.
Before we left the place, I saw cats and kittens rolling on the hay with closed eyes.
Also I saw one of their owners rolling with their cats.

--------------------------my god I can't believe It took so much time writing DJ with computer and english! I've been drawing and scribbling few keywords about dream so I didn't know it took so long to write full version! It's amazing how all of you in DV write DJ(most of them will be longer than mine!) without volatilization!----------------------------------

We took cars by 3 people in one car, and moved to our hotel.
When we got out the car, suddenly, there was a luggage next to my seat. I knew it's mine right after I get out the car.
We tried to buy sth to eat, so I pull my wallet, then I realized, it was in the luggage. So I searched for it. Cars look so simple and similar with each other so It took long time(or I felt it was a long time.) but I failed to find it and I just drag few euros(I think this was my dream sign. In China, with euros, why on earth I didn't realize????) and followed my friends.
We entered the store to buy some food or drinks. However, I found sth and I felt I really need to buy that one, so I took all my euros to buy that thing.
(As you can imagine, I can't remember what it was.http://www.dreamviews.com/images/smilies/eek2.gif)
After few hour? maybe jsut before I woke up, I realized the wallet is in my bag I've been carrying in whole dream.

Dream 1

I am sitting outside a building on some gravel floor, there is a girl sitting cross legged and we are talking. She telling me about wearing high heels, she says "Having 2 and a half inch heels are ok, its just anything after that may damage your heel." I begin to tell her about lucid dreaming, we both have a piece of paper and we draw a picture on it and then leave.

I am then in my house, I realize I was talking about lucid dreaming and become lucid. I immediately remember my goal to go to space, I think this is my 6th lucid attempt of getting to space now. I decide to try to fly to space, I jump through my window and try the swimming technique to steady myself before I fly upwards into space, however I just seem to float downwards to the ground and was struggling with my control over flying. For some reason I completely forgot to stabilize the dream. I think, 'Okay, if flying isn't working out for me right now, I'll lie on my bed and fully expect to float upwards out of my roof and end up in space'. So I then get onto my bed. I lie down, look up at the roof and expect to float upwards out of my roof into space. I feel my body detach itself from the body lying on the bed, I can feel my back curve inwards, my arms are sprawled out sidewards. I feel I have no control over this posture, I just know this is how its got to be if I want to float up into space. Then vibrations start to flood my whole body, they weren't strong vibrations but neither were the weak vibrations, they were somewhere in the middle. I let the vibrations happen and I watched myself float closer to my ceiling, by the time I was a finger length away from the ceiling, I decide I have had enough, I don't feel the need to get to space anymore, I was content with this experience, I want to recall it so I decide to wake.

But I'm then at the front of a queue to order food, the waiter asks me what I want "Can I have an iced bun, and a cheese bun. Actually no wait, swap the cheese for a cream bun" I say. The waiter goes to the cash till and looks up and says "lucid dreaming". I think 'You ain't catching me out, I'll do a reality check in case' I do the nose plug. I can breathe. But then he comes back and says something else. I forget everything was a dream and continue to collect my order.

Dream 1

I with my mum and I was waiting to play some game with her, she was pretending to be asleep and I had waited for an hour. She wakes up and says she dosen't want to play anymore. I am angry after waiting all this time.

Then I'm on my phone having a conversation with someone on twitter about this tv program and school, she was from a school called 'Aston'.

Dream 2

I am back in Italy once again, it is the last day and there is an awards celebration happening later. I am in my room which I am sharing with about 10 people. One girl asked me to take a photo of her with her camera. She stood on her bed and posed. I took a number of photos.

I am then at the place, there is a stage and I am backstage and outside there is a whole lot of tables everywhere for friends to sit together on. The two girls from my room are there.The presenter then says "And for this years hottest girls goes to..." I forgot what there name was. They were very embarrassed and didn't want to walk out on the stage but in the end did so.

I am then walking to the toilet and one of my teachers stop me, it is night time and they ask "Why are you wearing sunglasses?" I realise I am and its even darker with them on, so I take them off. She then started telling me about how one of her friend has a limp. I tell her that someone I know has got one too, she says "Oh yes! I know him! That's not good." The conversation ends and I think 'Shall I walk off or does she still want to talk to me?' I awkwardly walk off to the toilet.

I am in a cramped toilet and there is me and one guy in there who looks really ill, like he's going to be sick. Hes pacing back and forth between the sink, rubbing his forehead, sweating. I notice his glasses are on the floor. I don't ask him what's wrong because I thought he was just drunk. Then he leans over a sink, I assume he's going to be sick. But as he makes the sick noise, sweat pours from his back. WOAH WTF?! I think how strange this is. I then ask "Are you ok?" he dosen't answer, he looks embarrassed like he gets asked this question all the time. I drop the question. Instead I pick up his glasses off the floor and hand them too him. I walk off.

Dream 3

I was in a room downstairs, both of my doors were fully open. I hear a scream from my sister outside and a laugh from my brother. I turn round and see a squirrel running at me. It runs up and jumps off the floor, pushes off my head and onto the lights. It felt like I was punched in the head. It then jumped off the lights and grabbed onto my ass. It pulled me onto the floor, I fall over lying on my back with this squirrel next to me. It shoves its claws up my ass! I am in so much pain, I was being violated! It then started biting my hand, then pain was too much. I try headbutting the squirrel but it was not working. "JAMIE! JAMIE GET IT OFF NOW!" I scream to my brother. He was just standing over me laughing. The squirrel finally gets off and runs off. I cannot believe it.

I am then outside my infant school, for some reason everyone is driving there cars into walls and flying out the windscreen just for fun. This isn't fun I think, you could die doing that. I then start telling people about my squirrel story and everyone wants to see it. I tell them its at my friends house up the road. Everyone runs up and we see smoke smoldering out of a house. I notice the house is on fire, nobody is in. I am going to have to go in and put it out. Me and one friend run in and try and find the fire, we run upstairs and we here police sirens. They think I have caused the fire. Soon I see lasers pointing at me from snipers, I have to jump. I jump out the window from two stories, the dream ends!

Last night I had a non lucid dream. All throughout the dream I would check in with the thread I'm currently keeping up with right now in real life, but I wouldn't do it with a computer. When I wanted to check it I would simply think that I wanted to, then it would pop up floating in front of me. The main part of the dream was very dark and twisted. There was this huge pit with a landscape in it and in the pit would be a family of 5, a father, mother, and their kids. It was like a sick game, you were up against another person and the object would be to find and capture these people individually with your mind as they ran around hiding, and if you didn't find them first then your opponent would kill them. I remember I was doing this for a good cause of some sort, like I knew the family or something. Anyway, I played a couple times, and while I didn't save everyone every time, I did manage to end up saving the teenage daughter for good. After doing that I walked around a building from room to room until I found Nickelback. Who knows why he was there, but he seemed happy to see me because I was the one who saved the teenage girl and he liked her. Then he told me about how he was trying to do some kind of thing where you shoot off straight up into the sky. After he got done telling me this, the girl popped up beside me and started telling him off, saying he was a stupid, insignificant, person and his music was crap. He became saddened and didn't say another word, and I felt bad for him. The dream faded after that and I kept sleeping for a little bit more, without dreaming, until I woke up.

I wasn't going to type this one down because it doesn't really mean anything to me, its memorable, but I don't feel like it's significant. I came to the conclusion that I may as well. It is a dream after all and this is my dream journal, where I record my dreams.

This dream is split up into three parts; a part before that focuses on my two new dream brothers, a middle intermission sort of thing where I become lucid and teach some hobo-looking guy how to become lucid as well (and fly of course), and a third part with all the psuedo-Norse mythology woven in.

The first part I don't remember too well. My mother had given birth to two baby boys, that were apparently fist-sized and swimming in a coffee concoction with marshmallows (I tasted a cup of it without a baby in it; it was actually pretty good and tasted like hot chocolate with a bit of coffee, but I had no idea what a baby was doing in it; I think it may have been some sort of life support because they were so tiny?) Most of the time in this part of the dream I just talked with my family, including the brothers (yes, they could talk). At some point the dream abruptly switched to a zombie apocalypse game similar to a TF2 server I play on. Since there were no classes in reality, the best way to survive was to hide, so I hid alone behind my mom's bed (I should mention that most of the house was different, but my mom's room and a nearby hallway were the same as in reality). No zombies ever drew near, and eventually time ran out and I won. Most of my family (including aunts, uncles, etc) had become zombified, leaving only my immediate family alive (sans the brothers, they vanished at this point): me, my sister, and my mother. My memory of the dream is shaky from here, but I believe we play again. This time, there are classes from TF2, so I switch to engineer and build a sentry in my mom's hallway. I put a dispenser behind me, and two teleporters in front of the sentry (in-game they stop a variant of the demoman class called a demoknight from charging due to the small height change). I wish that I had more support and turn around to see that there are two more sentry guns placed behind me from two friendly engineers; I later realize this is impossible because the max limit is two engineers, but I paid no attention to it. The dream is fuzzy from here.

Notably, my father never appears in this segment, my real one or otherwise.

In the intermission, i'm at a park; it was sort of like an area of New York I had seen, it may have been Central Park. I notice something is amiss and I become lucid. The vast majority of the people walking around also seem to wake up as if they had become lucid in their own dreams, and they collectively fly away together. A man is left behind that looks sort of like a hobo, who looks pretty grim. I ask him what is wrong, and he says he doesn't know how to control his dreams. I go over the basics for him and then I goof around with flying (which I have not done for several months due to a lack of LDs; fortunately for me, they have begun returning and i'm getting one every few days now).

At some point during the intermission (not sure when but it was before I came lucid), i'm standing in a classroom. A very pretty girl asks me where I live, and I respond (for whatever reason she says that it isn't a real town even though she asked me if I lived there by name, and I say that it is). She then tells me where she lives tells me that she likes me (lelz) and that she would like to meet me at her house. Since it was pretty hard to refuse, I said "all right". She then vanishes before my eyes. The dream gets fuzzy from there on out, but I remember being annoyed that she simply vanished and that for as long as I can remember in that part, I stayed in the classroom.

After this, I lost lucidity.

The third part is a continuation of the first part. My family (this time with a father, though not my real father) has moved into a new house. It's several years into the future; my sister is only at the house for a small time as she has to go to New York for school, and the brothers are now around four years old and walking (and capable of advanced speech; this doesn't surprise me even now, as they could talk while they were swimming in coffee). I begin to feel jealous of my brothers, now that I am not an only child (this is false, I was never an only child; I conveniently forgot my sister here). I walk around our new house, exploring (it looked miles better than the old one) and chatting with my family. Eventually, I got annoyed and went outdoors. There are a couple of farm buildings around our house (but no barn). I approached one and discovered that we now owned some sort of chimera-like creature, a horse with a giant chicken head. It's behavior was a lot like a dog, though it also acted like a cat in that it wasn't very noisy. For whatever reason, I decided that it was a good time to fly away, so I flew up and over the trees surrounding my house. I was flying horizontally with my belly facing up and my back towards the canopy. Occasionally, I would see a massive tree that looked something like a deciduous redwood. I had to dodge one once, as it was in my way. They got more and more abundant the further I went, and eventually the canopy of one of the smaller trees below me rose up enough to stop me in my tracks and entangle me. I struggled to get free. After a while, I managed to get out, and I promptly flew back the way I came, this time actually looking where I was going (in other words, I flew with my belly facing the canopy and looking forward rather than my belly facing the sky and looking up).

After some time, I reached my house again. I was very fed up with how everything was going, so I decided to leave (somehow) by "exiting out of the server" as if it were a game. I magically opened up a menu, but in place of what I expected to be "exit", it instead said "ascend". I clicked on ascend (somehow), and out of nowhere some sort of a valkyrie appeared, said some things I don't recall, and caused a kind of magic spring to appear at my feet.

A few things to note about the spring; it wasn't in the ground at all, it was on the surface surrounded by these crystal walls that shimmered various cool colors (primarily purple, pink, cyan, and blue in that order of rarity). Some of the rocks lying on the ground near the spring also became the same kind of crystal, but it was merely a pale, transparent gray. Dipping it in the water caused it to glow like the crystal walls for a moment before fading back to gray. The walls themselves had some sort of a pattern on it; there were waves (or was it a pattern of double helixes?) etched into the crystal, but in the center of each wave was a circle. The water itself, as I said, caused the crystal to grow. However, the water tasted excellent! It was just cold enough, with a very faint sweetness, and you could almost taste pure power in it. I sensed that it had healing properties as well.

I went back inside. The brothers, my sister (she was back somehow), and my mother had no idea what it was, and my whole immediate family was standing on the second floor looking out a window at it. I said something about it, (I think I said something incredibly out of character, along the lines of "So what, i'm barely old enough to summon it..."; when I said this, the number 3102 flashed in my vision briefly) and my "father" reacted. He said something along the lines of "You summoned that, boy? You shouldn't have done that! Not with all these omens, anyway..." He got angry, and (switching back to video game elements) I said that I could just reload from my last save to before I summoned it. He questioned me further and I told him that it was from some time before I summoned it but after I went outside, and he told me to reload the save. I did.

I was back outside, in a second stable (the first one from before contained the chicken horse; this was a different one). There were, for whatever reason, female rumps sticking out of the walls. My sister was nearby and called me a pervert. I shrugged it off and left the stable.

The dream gets fuzzy from here, but I made sure not to click the "ascend" button again. After some time, the valkyrie came again and took me away.

Next thing I know, i'm in a very small sort of mausoleum. It's floating off the ground, and it's made of a transparent gray glass, and it's lined with some sort of gold-colored material. Outside, I can see thousands and thousands of excited people crowded in some large circular walled-in area; it's a very grand looking place, made of stone and decorated with the same gold material as in the mausoleum. I can detect that you can only see through the glass from the inside; the people on the outside cannot see me or anything else in here. I stop looking outside and look ahead. In front of me is a very old yet powerful looking man, and behind him is a stone coffin. Next to me is the valkyrie; for the first time, I can get a good look at her. She's half my size, so I assume she's a dwarf; she looks kind of like She-Ra, but with slightly darker skin, and she also has angel wings. The old, powerful man explains to me that he is Odin and that I am his heir, and that I am next in line to take his place as a god. He then explains my job (quickly) and that the valkyrie was my servant. He wishes me luck and enters the coffin. For a moment, my vision shifts out of myself and I can see the mausoleum from the side; once Odin enters the coffin, his robe-like clothes pop on to me, and my vision promptly switches back to my eyes. The coffin vanishes, and the mausoleum rockets up and eventually shatters.

The valkyrie and I are both floating high above. Since i'm now a god, I decide to exit the arena-like place and fly around the city a little. It's quite spectacular with the gold decorations and the stone (I like stone ), though I still have no idea what it is (it matches up to a Christian heaven more than Asgard). Shortly, the assistant valkyrie mentions that I have duties to attend to (unsurprisingly) so I ask what they are. She says that I have to create more of those magic pools I had seen earlier. Since I was new to the job, the valkyrie would help me with this one. She showed me that I had a way of calling upon a radar to see where I was needed (I explain it at the end of the page), and she showed me a rather danger-free area where a pool was needed. She poked the spot on the radar where the pool was needed and we both teleported there.

I appeared on the ground in a small town that looked similar to one in Skyrim in Whiterun hold. This was fitting, as the word "Skyrim" appeared in white letters in the middle of my vision, and faded out soon. The valkyrie began walking in some direction, and I followed her; we eventually found a sort of hay-filled indoors area where a person was sitting. The valkyrie showed me the incantation required to summon the pool, and soon enough a magic pool very similar to the one created for me when I hit "ascend" appeared. Something was amiss, though, and soon the valkyrie noticed several tiny blue imps with pitchforks flying around in the sky. The dream was fuzzy here, but I seem to remember a second valkyrie appearing to deal with the imps and both me and the assistant valkyrie heading back to the city.

People in the city were starting to riot; the blue imps were here, too. Here and there were a couple of valkyries fending them off, but even though they killed plenty they seemed to keep coming. The assistant valkyrie told me that in order to stop them, I had to create more of the pools, which would somehow help the valkyries fend off the imps. Unfortunately for me, the assistant had to stay and fight or else the city would be overrun by the imps, so I had to summon the next pool alone. Worst of all, the pool was required in the red region, and the valkyrie mentioned that most valkyries that went there did not return, and that I had to be very careful; it was probably best, then, that she stayed or else she would be slain.

When I poked the place where I was needed, it took me to a sort of overhead look at some sort of organic place. Two people were talking in the background, and saying that it was a wretched place and it was a miracle that people survived there at all. They mentioned one small town which was apparently major, and said that it was conquered by some sludge thing.

Eventually, I found myself in some sort of a fleshy tube. The path ahead was filled with all manner of nasty monsters. My view zoomed out so I had a third person view of myself, though as a consequence I lost control of myself. The Valkyries were right; I was having a tough time killing the monsters here (I even encountered one of the sludges that singlehandedly wiped out a town, as the two voices mentioned that gave me a hell of a time), and I was a god. The dream fades as I fight in the horrifying place, and I wake up.



A few notes on this dream: from what I can tell, the valkyrie is based off of the one from Nethack. It's especially probable, considering that the first time I seriously played the game and for a good while after that, I was a dwarf valkyrie. The strange thing, though, is that dwarven valkyries are always lawful, and lawful valkyries (whether dwarf or human) worship Tyr. Only neutral valkyries (which as I said cannot be a dwarf and must be a human) are capable of worshiping Odin. The dwarven valkyrie also could not have been wearing a Helm of Opposite Alignment, as that would make her chaotic rather than neutral and she would thus worship Loki instead. This indicates that, in order for her to become neutral by in-game standards, she would have to pray at a neutral altar with negative alignment as a lawful valkyrie, which would cause her to lose luck (meaning she would probably no longer be able to pray) and would change her alignment to neutral. What surprises me is that this valkyrie is probably the one most loyal to Odin, despite the fact that it would take a long time to get to good standing with Odin compared to a human valkyrie that started out worshiping Odin.

The position of Odin in this dream world is probably in name only. From what I theorize, the original Odin in this world is actually long-dead, unless the dream world is incredibly young. The various Odins are not immortal like you would expect a god to be, and age just like a human and can die of old age (though they probably are immune to disease and whatnot since they ARE gods). Thus, when they get old, they choose the next suitable person; this happens to be their heir, if there is one. Thus, the old Odin dies, and the heir takes up the throne and becomes a new Odin. Sort of like the Dread Pirate Roberts from The Princess Bride.

Of slight note is that I, as Odin, did not use Gungnir. I had a whip of some kind. Granted, when I ended up in combat, the dream started falling apart.

Apparently, hitting the Ascend button changed the timeline. In the button where I got the magic pool, someone else must have become Odin, and the valkyrie showed them what they needed to do to create the pool; since the valkyrie created the pool for me the first time it was required when I was Odin, this would explain why the valkyrie created the pool for me when I hit Ascend, since I became Odin in the second timeline at roughly the same time as I got the magic pool in the first timeline.

Allow me to explain the radar: it was shaped like a semicircle and split into five parts. The leftmost part was red, the part above that was some kind of greenish red (isn't that an impossible color?), and the remaining three points were green. I believe the green areas indicated areas of low danger where pools were needed. Since an area in the red zone took me to the horrifying place, I can only assume that the red areas are the dangerous areas. The greenish-red area must lead to an area of slightly more danger than the completely green areas (it wasn't THAT reddish) but I never went there so I could not tell. There was also a button centered on the bottom that took me back to the city with the gold gilding.




Holy crépes that was long. Haven't had a dream that long in a while. My recall must be improving.
