Waterslide College (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember coming to visit some kind of dorm. They were having a party in there. I was with Sam and my friend Julia. Once we walked in, I saw the entrance to a waterslide on the other side of the room. Well it wasn't really an entrance, it was an exit.

There were a lot of people in here having fun. I remember seeing a weird creepy guy (the guy in the new Footloose that offered the main character a smoke), and he offered us some kind of yellow concoction. I remembered hearing a guy yell to him, "Hey! Be nice!"

The dean walked through the doorway. Everyone stopped and stared. As fast as they could, they ran through the waterslide exit, into which we found that there was a secret waterslide entrance that led out of the dorm. We took it, and it was pretty cool. Once we got out, we found out that this college was full of waterslides. You traveled by water, pretty much. We walked along the water path behind the people that had the party. There was a huge "hole" in the ground, but it was actually several waterslides joined together forming the outside of the hole, and a pool of water in the middle. On the outside of this hole was a lazy river all around. Pretty cool.

Somehow being here, I got lost from Sam and Julia. I panicked, not knowing what to do. I overheard a person of authority (probably a teacher) say that the water was getting rough in certain dorms. (Like where you saw the waterslide exit in the dorm)

I gasped. I had to find them, they didn't know.

I got out of the water and looked around. There were so many waterslides I couldn't find the right one that led to that specific dorm. So I ran on the street looking for that dorm. I finally found it. I ran around to the side of the building, and sure enough, the entrance for that waterslide's water was covering the hole, so you would just be swimming if you tried to slide down. I looked around for them. Sam and Julia were standing on the ledge right when you slide down. The ledge was about 3 feet below the asphalt that I was standing on.

I grabbed Samantha's arms and pulled her up, and we did the same for Julia.

Then the dream ended.

Island Fun (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember being on some kind of tropical island that was raised up from the ground. If I looked out towards the water, all I could see was water, no land in sight. But this tropical island was pretty big. It was populated.

I wanted to jump off of the island into the water, but I was kind of afraid to. So I took a running start. I jumped off and landed into the water from about 20 feet in the air. It was fun. I got scared for some reason, probably about the sea creatures. So I swam back to an island that was more closer to the ground, and climbed up on it. It was one of those very small circular islands like you see in cartoons. It wasn't made of sand though, the bottom of all of these islands were made of rock.

I climbed back up using smaller islands as "stepping stones". I eventually found my way back to the top. I remember that I made a friend there. He was a talking crab/lobster (Sebastian?) who had a little human qualities about him.

I decided to jump off again, this time grabbing my friend. He was the size of my hand. I ran towards the edge, and leaped off once more. Falling into the water, I started to swim back to the smaller island. But something weird had happened. The current around the smaller islands overlapped with the current from the sea, making a small waved wall about 2 feet high streaming continuous water. I tried to swim through it, but it kept pushing me back. I swam down the little wave wall looking for a smaller entrance, and sure enough there was a smaller one. I swam towards it. There was a palm tree right next to it, in which I could "boost" myself over the current wall. So I did, and made it! I made it back onto the small island. It was about dusk now. I realized by now that my friend was no longer in my hand. I thought about going to to find him in the water, but I was afraid I would get stuck. He was a crab, anyways.

Last night, I had a surprisingly vivid dream.

I was playing the "new" Zelda game on the Wii (I have no idea what it was called, but it's not a real game IWL). I was playing it on my TV in my room, though, so it should have logically been an N64 game (only console in my room; the Wii is in the living room), but it was a Wii game. It started out in the Shadow Temple, which reminded me a lot of the Shadow Temple in Wind Waker (wait... Wind Waker doesn't even have a Shadow Temple). I soon found out that Link could transform into a wolf, like in Twilight Princess. After hearing him scream upon returning to Hylian form, I decided I wouldn't transform unless absolutely necessary (there was no way to skip the transformation like in Majora's Mask).

I kept playing and soon found Zelda. She was unconscious. I brought her out of the temple, and she woke up. She had a bag of something that looked like pot (I think). She said it was actually cocaine and suggested putting it in coffee to make the coffee taste better. The only option for replying to her was to refuse. Then, a message popped up that said something about the Swedish not supporting the use of cocaine (as the game was apparently made by Mojang).

I somehow ended up back at the title screen. I turned off the game and decided to watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (even though I don't have Netflix on the TV in my room).

I don't remember much of my dreams from last night. However I was glad to see that I had had six lucid dreams that night. A personal record. I attribute this to reading all the information in this site and trying some new techniques dream spinning and hand rubbing. Before I went to sleep I had an idea. Being Christian I don't pay as much attention to prayer as I want to and I thought if I was to spend one dream just praying, paying attention to god even building a temple. That he would appreciate it and it would make me feel less guilty for not paying attention to him in my daily life. As i could do this every night. I kept this image in my head as I drifted off to sleep.If I want something enough it will happen

I remember waking up in my bed. The first thing I did was a R.C. I did this by making myself levitate. I remember I wanted the sun to come through the window and light up the room it was night and the darkness frightened me. as usual I knew the light switches wouldn't work. So instead I turned away from the window and told myself the sun would come up and brighten my room. this didn't work. I then looked into the mirror for once not afraid of it but rather more curious if I could notice any changes in appearance. My hair was a lighter brown. I then made myself merge through the window into my front yard.



When I arrived there I first rubbed my hands together. I then kept touching everything I could as I walked afraid to loose the dream. I enjoyed the sensations as usual. As soon as I was on the foot path I thought about a faster way to travel. traveling is often too slow. I then called to Duke my dog. He ran up to me happy as usual. I feel by calling someone I know I can trust really helps alot more then calling someone I dont trust or hardly know. I mounted him and told him to run. Duke ran down the streets. I remember being frustrated that it wasnt fast enough though I told him to go faster. didn't work The rest is in patches. I tried to tell myself we would arrive at a temple I made for god.



We instead arrived at Mc donalds. I remember being afraid it would also be a church. it wasn't. Here I met a men who said he was travelling from another dream making me think if it was possible that someone from another dream across the world could merge with yours you would never know. He said he knew some sports guy I was curious if I could recover buried information in our brains in our dreams that I wouldn't usually use. I asked who it was and forgot what he said so didn't get to test the theory. I also compared two fingers of a women's hand to see if I was dreaming. I tried to make a temple for god by dream spinning. first I got different scenarios an island theming aladin and a temple. not being happy I kept spinning going through each scenario till I woke up. I was disapointed then I remembered to do an R.C check levitating again. my new favourite R.C check. I use to just observe things out of the ordinary 3 times and if there where 3 things out of ordinary id know it was a dream. Its harder then it seems. Or even harder once you question if you are dreaming tell yourself it is a dream as if you were awake you wouldnt question if you were dreaming.



I tried to get a temple and got one it was boring. a lady came up asked for a dangerous potion to kill someone. I agreed gave it to her it was red. she fought some ppl and killed them. the ppl she killed was actually herself. I saw a car wreck infront of my house. I was afraid it would follow me. it did. fear made it happen

remembering I was dreaming I ran towards it and faced my fear it turned into an puppy that had died that I had missed and all had forgetten about her. facing fear made the car go away I used all these powers and thought I am a god. seeing god I quickly changed it to I am a sorcceress as I dont beleive anyone should pretend to be god even in there dreams. and was afraid of what god would think. Finally tired of taking time for god I felt aroused.

Spoiler for adult material = rape:

I layed on the ground and imagined myself sinking into it as I thought about a Demon underground ready to rape me. As I sunk I experienced some panic that I was sinking too slowly or not at all and that something bad would happen on the surface. I managed to relax. I often experience fear in my dreams. fear makes bad things happen.relaxing helps make what i want to happen Finally I sunk into the ground and used my thoughts to make a demon grab me to rape me. as I was being moved towards him I told myself what the demon would do to me and angled myself towards his penis. the demon penetrated me and I usually in a rape scenario do nothing and let it take control. this time I found myself arching back and fucking it. The demon was surprised. it came quickly then there was some unusual dream about it being embarrased of the thickness of its sperm and many men had the same problem. one guy even suggested thick sperm meant the woman had no control over the men and was to do anything they said. I had several false awakeings and did several R.C. checks. I wanted to be raped again and imagined a blue giant.

I was handed a giants head. It was a bit gross I had to throw it into the water to make the giant emerge it was blue and stone like. The giant told me in order to have sex i was to attatch butterflies to my head walk out into the open where they will be eaten by catepilliars then eating my face. I saw several examples and was afraid and felt trapped. I tricked the giant by agreeing with him. then fled to a ship dodging the giant in the sea. My goal to reach the southern sea where I would be able to teleport as someone could cast a spell to help me there. I ran into an oil rig and the giant was saddened and cleaned the mess. I teleported to another oil rig. I was able to teleport when I usually can not because I imagined a scenario where someone helped me with magic making it possible

I dreamed I was to take care of some children. I put on black stockings as that would make children easier to control. When I arrived I had to clean this whole yard and put away this mail. I told my dad I did everything else he could clean the bucket. I felt guilty about that. I was proud of my accomplishments. I went to grandmas and had earned a big feast of I think nachos.

I dreamt of an old best friend. who I'm no longer friends with. There was a dress I was to wear for an important event. I was to rest. I woke to my friend who said she was raped by a guy. I was angry as I had been abused before. We tried to confront the guy. The dream got confusing a higher power a women didn't believe her. It turned out my friend had gone to the pub. We were accused of making males rape us. Some guys chased us at one point and I felt like I was making them rape us. I apologised to many women. And at some point someone wanted to pick a dress and I rushed and picked it first choosing it over my original choice. It was green and suited me.

I woke up for real several times during the night but found it easy to go back into a dream. I remember when I was 16 I had a recurring nightmare where I was paralyzed and my heart beat hard against my chest. I learnt to make this experience lead to a lucid dream by falling through the depths into a black void where I would make myself fall faster and faster untill I was in a dream. Quite frightening at first but it soon become enjoyable.

(this was a very cinnamic dream, it was 3rd person at times and had a story similar to an adventure movie) I see my self in a dark blood red stone cavern, I flip a switch on the wall of it. I then run as fast as I can into a large open space where there is lave mixed with spots of obsidian and large chunks of rapidly melting and reforming cloudy white ice. I view myself jump across the ice being careful not to slip in the lava however I do move with a sort of urgency. I make a final jump and land on an obsidian and red stone island in the center, with a swift step I run over to a chest and pull out a small bit of mine track. As soon as I pick this up I drop it on the ground and it begins growing into a long track, I look around for mine cart but don't see one, I do however see a larger chest and after a look inside I have acquired my transportation. I lift the heavy cast iron cart and put it on the track and as I do this fireballs are hurdled towards me from above by a flaming semi spherical flying creature. (as this happens my view also switches to first person) I push the cart off and begin going down a diagonal pathway in the ground. The creature comes after my and in a swift pass by it injures me with its heat, I hear a deep voice say loudly "DO YOU THINK YOU CAN ESCAPE BLZE?" in response I begin throwing snow balls at the fiery beast, then it throws a single fireball and I return a single snowball. This repeats about 3 times before it crates a lightning bolt out of thin air, it uses it as a sward like weapon and I feel the high voltage surge through me down my legs and arm, I grasp when it gets to my hand and I form my own bolt. I swing at "Blaze" and repay the damage it has caused to me. It hits me agin and I use the electricity in my hand to strengthen the weapon, needless to say this time I more than repay the damage, however it gains a higher strength weapon with a golden handle. It impacts me one last time as we hurtle down the diagonal shaft. (I slowly awaken and after a short moment of though recall this adventure, I just wish it had an end!)

I began in a laboratory with a another person who is operating a digital microscope, we view a small area of a human skull on a monitor, the surface of it has small chipped places in the shape of a tiny smiley face. The person (who I realize is wearing a lab-coat like I) explains that what we see is a type of pre-historic tattoo. (the dream begins to fade and I slowly wake)

Alright I have a TON of notes for this one, because several important things happened to me in the course of about 10 minutes. For time's sake, and the sake of recollection, I'll go straight into describing the dream.

I was dreaming about being in our backyard, and looking at what damage the drought as caused some of the plants. I noticed that one of my bushes had spontaneously grown tomatoes in the center, though it was not a tomato vine. I poked at one. Then I noticed one of the citrus trees looked dry as usual, and the ground surrounding it also dry. But it was mysteriously missing it's little decorative brick border. Also, it was too close to the fence all of the sudden. I looked at the place it should have been, and there was an entirely different plant (like a basket topiary), in its place with the brick border. I thought, "This isn't right, OH I'm dreaming!!" This next moment is extremely important.: Right after becoming lucid, and for the few seconds before remembering that I want to complete a TOTM, I became very aware of the fact that I had only fallen asleep a minute before. And while the transition was by no means perfectly seamless, as there were a few moments where I couldn't account for the time exactly, and I had blacked out a little. I'll explain in a bit why I know how much time had elapsed, and why this is important. Anyway, moving on. I remembered the advanced task of the month almost immediately, as the thought of completing the basic task flashed through my mind. However, I knew I didn't have much time (you'll see why in a minute), and the fact that I was in the garden was going to make it hard to find a pen and paper. So in a panic, I willed something, anything to write with, to appear. A Bic, black ink pen appeared on the ground. YESSSSS I thought. I grabbed it, and not even bothering to look for paper, I tried to write something on my arm. I was able to scratch my arm a little, which hurt, but the ink wouldn't come out or show up on my arm. I wishfully looked at a table on the back porch, and I saw a pice of ripped manilla paper that Chris usually likes to doodle on. Double YESS! I ran and grabbed it, and quickly scribbled on it, and it worked. So I tried to think of something to write from my waking life, and the first thing that popped into my head was "Last night, I cooked chicken for dinner." I even recollected quite clearly the actual dish, as it was something I had never made before. I wanted the sentence to be simple though, and started to write, "Last night, I.." Then I got distracted by some scribbling that was on the top of the paper already. I don't remember what it said, but when I looked back to the sentence I was writing, it was all gibberish. I scratched it out and tried it again, just under my first attempt. Exact thing happened again haha! So this time, I made myself focus on the task. I mean, we're talking pain in the brain, making myself focus on writing this tiny little sentence without getting distracted. I finally got it all written out, and I remember being ecstatic that I completed both tasks within the first week of the month.

Then Danny's snot rocket ritual (in real life) woke me up momentarily. I fell back to sleep, and again lost a little consciousness, and reappeared in the garden. I became instantly lucid again, because all the plants were jacked up in the same way. And this time Jason (RareCola) was there. This is also important for 2 reasons which I'll get to later. I was so excited to see him and show him the "journal". In this second lucid, it actually had grown from a simple piece of ripped paper, to a big book that looked like something that would be on Harry Potter's bookshelf. I opened it to the first page, and there was my waking life entry! Although, it now said "Lst nghnit, I cked CHKN fr dnnr," though imagine that with some Ns and Rs backwards. I explained to Jason that this happens apparently if you look away, then back again, at my journal. Then I turned some pages and there were drawings that Chris had made of bears, and dogs, and other animals. Same magic. If I looked at a bear, then turned the book around, then looked at the bear again, it changed. It looked all poofy, like it got its tail stuck in an electrical outlet. Same thing for each animal drawing, and I showed each one to Jason, who found it remarkable.

At this point in time I think my lucidity became a bit hazy, but then I got it back, or I woke up briefly then fell back to sleep and got lucid again. Which one I can't recall, but I DO recall being lucid again, and going inside the house, being so proud of my TOTM accomplishments. I decided it was time to celebrate, since I couldn't really think of anything else to do. So I summoned a DC and we got it on. I actually awoke from that final lucid, because my DC and I heard a soft buzzing noise. I told him, "Oh that's just Danny in real life, brushing his teeth with the electric toothbrush." Then I woke to the sound of the electric toothbrush.

Now, how did I know exactly how much time had passed in these lucid dreams, and furthermore, how did I know that I had little time before the dream would end? First, we set our alarm this morning for 6:30am. And Danny ALWAYS gets up first (because his bathroom ritual takes about 10 minutes, whereas mine takes 5 or less). At any rate, it's always the same ritual: 1. Peepee for 2 minutes (I swear he has a horse bladder), 2. Snotrockets in the sink (3 minutes), 3. Wash face and comb hair (3 minutes), and 4. Electric toothbrush (2 minutes). Then the bathroom door opens and it's time for me to get up. So, when I first became lucid, I knew it had to be between 6:30 and 6:40, because after the alarm went off and Danny went into the bathroom, I tried to sleep in for those 10 minutes, and I felt some mild vibrations. When Danny's snotrockets woke me up after the first dream, and I went right into the next lucid dream, I know I had maybe 5 minutes left (hair, face, and toothbrush).

Next, why was RareCola's presence so important? First of all, the advanced task was his idea. And it's particularly noteworthy that he just realized in real life, that I don't actually keep a written dream journal (only online). Also, the night before this lucid sequence, Jason and I were talking about the subtle differences between a DEILD chain, and simply having multiple DILDs. I realized that I was really having the latter, because I couldn't honestly recall a single instance where I truly went from conscious wakeful awareness, to a lucid dream, without skipping a beat. There has always been a few moments of time, and fuzziness, and unconsciousness that I couldn't account for. So when I became lucid in that very first DILD, I couldn't help but think of our conversation, and I made that attempt to bring, into this DILD, the analysis of how I became lucid, and of how long it took (which I knew because of Danny's ritual), and of how I could really concretely admit that there was a moment of loss of awareness between those vibrations, and being in the garden and not lucid, then lucid moments later (holy run on sentence batman!).

Finally, I find it truly remarkable, that a DC and I both heard Danny's electric toothbrush, and I had the true, acceptance of what this was. I was in a dream, and my body was in bed, and my sleeping ears were gradually picking up more and more of the sound of his toothbrush in the bathroom. I felt like I existed simultaneously on two planes, if only for a few seconds.

I managed to stuff a shit ton of activities in just 10 minutes!

Last night I had a bazaar dream, one that I had before a few months back, only this time I was able to take some action against the horrific events (I'm not sure if this falls under "lucid dreaming" or not, so I'm posting my dream here). The dream scares me and I want to know what it means.

It starts off with me driving through a suburban neighborhood, on my way to visit my father for a "family-get-together". It's all viewed in a first person perspective as I park in front of my "father's" house, which looks more like my mother's house (father and mother are divorced, lived with my mother for 4 years or more before getting kicked out and living with my father). A family-get-together might seem innocent enough, but this "get-together" didn't have much family in it. It consisted of my father, and 2-3 other characters that I've never seen before. Aside from "family", my old childhood friend (who lived next door to me when I lived in my mother's house) was there too. Apparently she was "invited" and came along to see me.

The interior of the house looks the same as it does in reality, only the guest bedroom seemed to be some kind of closed off cavern. This cavern was like a ceremonial trial of some kind that consisted of 3 bridges, crossing over what looked like a bottomless pit. These three bridges lead to 3 different loins head statues, and inside each lions head were either (from left to right) 2 vials of green liquid, a book and figurine of some kind of god-creature, and 2 vials of red liquid. It was never explained to me, nor do I know what the purpose of this "trial" is. All I know is there was an old hag who looked almost like a witch who instructed me to take this trial. She wasn't visually related to anyone in my real family, but I seemed to treat he like a family member that I knew, just never seen much of.

Apparently when I arrived, my childhood friend had already taken said trial, and I was told by this witch that I had to take it as well. My "father" in this dream kept to himself and seemed to have this look of disgust toward me, like he wanted nothing to do with me, or just looked at me like just another person he didn't know or care to know. He never explained anything to me and was often seen cooking and cutting up meats like a butcher. So when I was instructed to take this trial I didn't bother asking my father for any help or advice (Normally in the real world when I was faced with a situation that I wasn't sure about I would ask for his advice/approval/help) and went along with it.

The process of the trail was odd:
1.) Choose from either the 1st or 3rd bridges to cross.
2.) Once crossed, choose 1 of the 2 vials
3.) Once a vial was chosen, the 1st and 3rd bridges would fall into the pit. You had a split second to grab onto the narrow walkway on the wall mounted with the lions heads.
4.) From there you must shimmy to the 2nd bridge and write down 10 truths about yourself in the book inside the 2nd lions head.
5.) Once the truths are written, tear out the page and offer it to the god-creature's figurine while lying about all 10 truths (example: "I can not tell a lie" being a truth, you must say something like "I can't help but speak only lies").
6.) If you did this incorrectly, the bridge would fall. If you did it correctly, the page would burn and you'd have to drink the vial you choose.

Depending which vial you choose it was either beneficial or poison. My first time in this dream I picked the 2nd green vial and it turned out to be poison. From there, I was dragged back to the house, and a horrific ritual of some kind was performed on me where I was slaughtered and roasted alive like some kind of pig (equivilant to the traditional cooking of a whole pig at large Cuban and Puerto Rican family-get-together's, my family in reality being of Puerto Rican decent). Knowing this I chose the 1st vial this time and drank it. It wasn't poison, though it made me very sick, and when I came back from the "trail" I remember puking all over the floor and could barely walk, my friend at my side trying to help make me feel better. My father could care less.

Shortly after I recovered, my friend took a turn for the worse and started feeling faint. She was later taken to my old room and was resting in what looked like my mother's bed from the master bedroom. My dad was at her side, looking like he was taking care of her. I asked him if she would be okay, and if there was anything I could do to help. He just shook his head and grumbled words at me like "everything's fine" and "It'll be done soon". I didn't understand any of it, and the more I asked and demanded to know what was going on, the less and less pleased he seemed with me.

I stared exploring the rest of the house for a while and I eventually came across what looked like a slaughterhouse built in the backyard that connected directly to the back door of the house. This is where I witnessed other people getting slaughtered alive in the most disturbing and disgusting ways. I heard their screams and saw them gutted, filleted and lobotomized by my father and 2 other butchers. I was freaking out at the horrific sight and my father caught a glimpse of me. I quickly ran back inside the house and tried to get my friend from the bed, but the witch was already their cutting slivers of flesh and meat from her arms. She was accompanied by another, larger looking butcher and I demanded that they stop and explain themselves. The witch just looked at me with a crooked grin and said "The ritual must be completed!". Just then I was suddenly blind folded from behind, but I quickly fought my way out of being restrained and ran for the front door.

Once I made it outside I was relieved to see that there were people outside. Witnesses in case father should try anything. He was shocked to see them there, and didn't want to do anything while so many people were watching. He just looked at me as I got in my car and asked, "where are you going?" I told him that I was going back to my mother's place and was calling to let her know that I was on my way (I would notify people in reality to let them know where I was or where I was headed, that way in the event that something should happen or if I don't show after a period of time, they'll know something was wrong and start looking for me). When my father heard this, he nodded with a look of anger on his face and said, "That's a nice little car you have, son..." and stormed back into the house. I didn't know what he meant by that, but when I got in the car and looked off to the side of the house, I saw a rather large, black pickup truck with 40 inch wheels and my stomach sank.

At that point I didn't care, I started the car and put it in reverse, but I started noticing something strange. Everything felt slow and slugish, like everything I was doing was happening in slow-motion, but everything around me was continuing at regular speed. It felt like my body's responsiveness was slugish and I came to the conclusion that it was a side-effect of the vial I drank. But I didn't care, I wanted to get away as fast as I could. I started driving through roads, most unfamiliar to me. As I drove I was convinced that this was the right way to go home. Suddenly I received a text message on my phone saying "You can't escape" (I didn't read it with my eyes as I just took a glance and correctly assumed that's what it said). Shortly after reading the message, the road started changing. It started breaking up into sections that looked equivalent to the roads of "candy land" or "the wizard of Oz" and turned every which way. I started freaking out as a new, surreal world started forming around me, and I wasn't sure whether I was hallucinating or not, and when I looked in the rear view mirror I saw the black truck tailing me. I tried accelerating to get away, and for a while I was able to put some distance between us, but I started to black out and woke up from my dream.


I tried looking for answers online to see if there was any meaning to this, but couldn't find anything specific... I'm still looking for answers...

Okay, keep in mind that I am 16. And that lately in order to become aware, in my dreams I would just KNOW that I'm dreaming without a reality check, and sometimes don't even use a reality check. (which I know, is bad.)

So, it started out as me being in school one day. My friend that I kinda avoid hanging out with sometimes asked me to hang out with him, and I kind of avoided it. I rescheduled anyways. Then I went into my classroom that I was supposed to go into. It was my CAD classroom (which is a 3d computer design class). Then my teacher showed us a new seating chart, and I went to sit in my seat. Moments after I got there I appeared in this courtyard at my school that wasn't my actual courtyard.

This is where it starts getting weird...
I was in a dream scene that I had been in previously that night for an entirely different dream. I believe it may have been in a dream of mine last night too.
So i hear people chanting something about dreaming, and then I quietly chant that "I will have a lucid dream tonight" I kept chanting it to myself and I only did a small reality check to ask if I was dreaming. I didn't catch myself one bit.


Later on into that dream, I felt as if I woke up in waking life, and then rolled over in my bed and the scene changed again into a water world that was portrayed as a video game world in my head. I WAS the character in the game though, and I WAS actually scared of the feeling of drowning. At one point, I came into realization that I messed up in my last dream. That I didn't do a reality check. Then I was telling myself I have got to start looking at my hands more and really focusing in on that stuff, no matter what. I didn't do one reality check I believe.
I carried on just thinking that.

And then, I felt as if I kind of woke up. I felt myself roll over in my bed, keeping my eyes closed, and affirming myself that I would become aware. I continually did that. Then I felt some shaking, and I heard another bed shaking inside my house, and I feared something might be happening to my mom, and then I was focusing in on that. I felt my cat lift it's head up and jump off my bed. Then I rolled over, opened my eyes, and was in my room and all the shaking stopped. My door was closed [so a cat couldn't have been in my room].

What was this for me? Was it vibrations and those vibration noises? Because like I said, I felt my cat jump off my bed. Could that have been my dream guide as I was entering into the dream? I didn't feel any sort of sleep paralysis, because and I was able to just roll over twice and open my eyes within those few seconds.
I sort of thought that this sensation was awesome though. I thought it was exhilarating once I woke up. I simply loved it. I thought it was a great dream, even though I only reached layer 0 minor in the layers a lucid dream.

This place will be where I post some of the dreams I remember,and hopefully will be able to start posting about my future Lucid dreams.

Dream - Lucid

I was about to race Austin underwater, though we were on two separate courses, though they were both underwater. I remember seeing his face, and he looked so much younger, like a 12 -year-old version of himself. He was smiling and his face looked bright and full of life.

I knew right off I couldn't beat him. He was well known for his great swimming skills. I decided to try anyway.

The course started out on land, but only briefly. It was in a cave that had a part of it submersed in water. I stood right where the cave lightly sloped into the underwater portion on a white line that had been drawn to designate the start. I stood prepped like I was about to run a race, with one foot behind me in an almost kneeling positing with both my hands on the ground. I got the signal to start, though I can't remember what that was. I went straight into the water and swam hard through the underwater cave. There was no chance to breathe anywhere, for it was, well, an underwater cave, but that didn't seem to be an issue. I was surrounded by underwater plants, anenomes, and gray rock. I swam into another part of the cave on my right.

I was in the dining room at my family's house with Lily and Marshall from How I Met Your Mother (this is what happens when I fall asleep watching Netflix). They were doing something on my laptop, some kind of game, and I kept pushing a button repeatedly, trying to fill up some bar to win. Every time I'd get close, they'd shut me down. I then remember sticking a pin or a needle inside part of the computer to push some small button (think the 'reset' button on some electronics where you have to stick the head of a pen inside a small hole to push it). I kept doing that really fast and had a couple more to go when, I again got shut down.

~

I was supposed to meet Jake at a restaurant. He suggested a local hookah bar that I used to frequent in waking life, but I haven't been to in a couple of years. I was surprised he suggested it, but I agreed to go. I got there first and waited on Jake for awhile. I ordered my food and it got there before he did. Finally, he got there and sat down at the table diagonally across from me, to my left. I feel like there were a couple of other people there too. We were sitting outside in the porch area of the bar.

Then, Jake looks at me blankly and says
"I had sex with you because you're an emotion."
This really pissed me off. I was infuriated. I was so mad, my vision started to blur as I looked under the table for my black flip-flops. As I was slipping them on and standing up, I said, angrily,
"Well I hope you want to pay for dinner then!"

And with that, I stormed off. Jake went after me. We started really getting into it. I vaguely remember us having plastic yellow baseball bats and hitting one another with them (I own one of these in waking life). The restaurant briefly looked like my family's house as we fought through it. During the fight, I felt like he had the upper hand, like he was winning; I felt inadequate.

We sat back down at the table and the waitress said something to us, though I can't quite remember what exactly, but it was something about us fighting. We were still angry at this point, and I still felt strangely low, like he was going to break it off with me or something, I'm not sure. It was not a good feeling though.

Then, I remember driving on the interstate, waiting for my exit to get there. I was driving back from Nashville. I then suddenly remembered I had no idea which exit to take, and I had forgotten to set up my GPS. I quickly, while driving, grabbed it out of my glove compartment, hooked it up and turned it on. The exit was coming up soon, though it was at an odd place on the GPS map. I knew it was a spirally ramp that I was looking for. The GPS then showed me driving inside a spiral, heading towards the center.

Well, last night I was as close as I have come to completing my major dream goal, and yet, it still didn't quite happen which now that I think about it kind of just makes me mad, because I was SOOOOO close and yet it still didn't happen...

Anyways, the first thing I remember is that I was at this old walled city, somewhere in Italy I believe. Anyways, in this city, two futuristic armies composed of robots were duking it out for control of the city. It was kind of like a video game, because each robot had a little health bar above its head and stuff like that. Anyways, sometime during my explorations of the city, the alarm woke me up. As soon as this happened, I was able to recall the dream and instantly go right back into it.

When I first got back in, I was a little drowsy, thinking myself to still be asleep. I then realized however that I was back in this city and became lucid. This time, I remembered to stabalize the dream, which is a good step in the right direction. I just told myself over and over that I was in a dream and it was going to stay stable and I would stay lucid so I could work on my dream goals. I then decided to accomplish my major one. (I also contemplated the group project goal as well, but just couldn't help myself. :-/ Anyways, I just began telling myself that as I explored the city, I would find who I was looking for. As soon as I had said this, a little arrow just popped up in the center of the city, floating above a building. I thought that this myst be leading me to them so I followed it. As I made it to the building, the arrow started bouncing up and down as if to say "Your destination is ahead" I entered the building however, to find no one in it. I went into the basement, where there was a kitchen.

I then remember turning around and seeing a shadow coming around the corner. I looked closer, and then they came around the corner and it was none other than who I had been wanting to meet this whole time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In the dream, I was literally speechless and just kind of stood there in shock. They they came over and we were just about to greet eachother and then a bunch of the robots suddenly came in and stormed the building where we were. They instantly came in and violently separated us from each other. I was so furious that I woke myself up, trying to kill the robots so I could get back. Man I was so mad!!!!! Here I was about to finally achive a HUGE goal of mine and these damn robots come in and ruin it!!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRR!!!!!!

After waking up from that, I just went back to sleep because I was so angry. I do wonder though... did the robots storm the building because I was so excited t was finally happening, and I almost didn't believe it myself? I just need to be really confident next time so that doesnt happen again. Either way though I AM going to achive this goal soon. I also am going to try and meet some people from the shared dreaming project tonight as well.

See ya

07/01/2012 - 7/08/2012 Fragments

I was on a fairly large boat inside some sort of pull or sink in a bathroom either the bathroom was large or the boat was small. The boat started sinking and when I made it outside it sunk impossibly fast I fell into the water and floated for a bit then tthe boat sudenly came back out of the water completely fine when me and the dc passangers were back inside the flight attendants that worked on the boat were apologizing for the stuff in my mini bar bing on one side since the ship rolled.

Lucid Fragment

I was sitting with people on some place I can´t remember my surrondings but at one point I looked down and realized I was dreaming smilling I looked back up to my group of people and said "Im in a dream aren´t I?" with a bild smile on my face. The dcs nodded somewhat uninterestingly as the dream faded away.

Lucid/Non-Lucid
I was walking towards a warehouse in wich I knew awaited the devil in the form of a kid with dark looking eyes that seemed negative. There was snow on the ground outside of the grey wharehouse witch seemed to be in the midst of an industrial area of some unknown city there were more people around then there should usually be dressed in casual cold wheather cloths. I go into the wharehouse wich is completely hollow and well lit and see him in the center of it with black trench coat and menacing face. I rush him and he starts to alter my relaity suddenly im in another place full of trees and stuff I know it´s a trick but I can´t seem to over come it. Something happens and I end up outside again this time there are some causal dc´s that are willing to help me out and they accompany me when we get in the ware house I warn them about the illusion trick. We all rush him and he does it again for a minute I sea the wooods but I fight it and tell my group to not pay it any mind the illusions breaks away and I grab him I feel victory and the dream fades.

Non-Lucid

I was at the beach with some of my family from Colombia (wich is strange since they dont live near the ocean.) There is a black cable that is as thick as two powerlines going from some unknown place into the ocean like this they creat huge waves for people it seemed to have gone wrong an dmake a huge tsunami wave that I promptly tried to get away from it bare splacehed me but wasnt that bad I went back andwatched as people kept going in the water and come out later with injurieds the rest fades and I wake up.

02-26-2011 -- That was kind of grim. Started out kind of light, turned into one of my darkest, grimmest dreams ever. This one may not be pleasant. Almost all sweetness and light, but the last few parts are ultra-violent.

I'm driving down the road, trying to go to Disneyland, and it is late a night. I'm pretty much driving all right until I make a wrong turn and almost get my car trapped, so I get out of the car and start walking. I am near Harbor, and I should only have to walk a block or two to reach Harbor Blvd and be able to turn toward Disney.

I find myself visiting with a marmalade cat that is mine, and talking with it and visiting with it. I pass a young woman who is moaning about how she has no money and and no food, and will probably die in the cold of the night, and I walk past her, but then start to feel bad for her and come back and give her a little money to help her out. Then I hug her close to show her people still care, and move on.

I'm walking through a sort of crowd, and there are also dozens of cats around, and all are walking the opposite direction I am, except my cat, which is walking along side of me, not going with the crowd.

Soon I somehow find myself working a late night shift at a gas station / convenience store. [A type of work I have never done.] A couple of customers come in and make cash purchases, and I handle their transactions easily. Then one guy comes in with his rich family, and he wants gas on two pumps. He asks for $90 on one pump, and $100 on the other. He hands me a credit card, and it is the first credit card I have been given for payment.

I run it through the machine, and it is very hard to slide, and very tight. A counter next to the machine lights up and shows a map of the internet signal as it is routed to the credit card approval place. A couple of times it goes down a bad path where the signal is lost, and I can see it start a new route from where things went bad, until it manages to connect. Very interesting to watch.

The card comes back declined, and as I look at it, I spot that it is actually broken, and has a corner of the card taped in place. It was the tape that caused the thing to stick, and I know it isn't going to work. I explain to the customer that his card is broken, but notice that in the stuff he gave me, there is another card, so ask him if he wants me to use that one. He says he does.

I don't know what is with this card, but it has no number, no bar code, no magnetic stripe, and I can find no way to run it through the machine. I tell the guy I can't use this card, either, and he becomes very insulting. I try to explain that one of the cards he handed me is physically broken, and the other has no data allowing it to be processed, but he starts telling me that I am an idiot and a jerk, and he is going to get me fired over this.

While his family started out as a small family of four, it has now grown to be something like 20 people, including a bunch of kids. The kids are starting to steal candy and things, and as I confront them and try to make them stop, one of the adults attacks me with a large knife. I take the knife away from him, and go back to speaking with the kids, but an adult near the register opens it, steals the money from inside, and starts to hand it out to all the kids.

I run back toward the register, and they all begin to run out into the parking lot, which is now packed with tons of people. I follow them to a large bus, and the driver shuts the door in my face, and starts to pull out. I have had it, and I snap. I leap five or six feet into the air and grab the door handle and open the door back up, then let myself into the bus. I pull out the large knife I took from the guy who tried to use it on me, and it slowly stretches into a sword as I walk through the bus and kill every man, woman and child with a few strokes, usually putting one or two deep slices in each one, though one guy I aim just right, and take his entire head off.

I'm thinking about going through their pockets and getting my money back, but I don't see myself actually doing it in the dream. I get off the bus and head back to the gas station, while the guy who started the whole mess climbs on the bus and starts screaming as he finds what I have done. I approach the gas station, where I find the next shift has come in. I ask him how the balance was, and he tells me I was about $50 off, which is a lot less than expected, so I guess I did take the money back, and somehow put it back, even though I only just walked back in.

I decide it is time for me to go, and I can see the trouble-maker and a few of his friends in front of the building, so I choose to exit through a window leading onto the hill behind the station. The trouble-makers come running around screaming for my blood, but I fly into the air to avoid them. They are trying to fly as well, and are soon getting it. They are getting closer and closer, and the dream in quickly changing into one of those nightmare chase dreams where you have powers, but so do the enemies.

I can see this going on and on, and don't want to deal with such a long, miserable process, and decide I have to end things decisively. I think up a nuclear bomb and cause it to appear in my hands, then throw it on the ground. For about two seconds, nothing happens, then there is a flash of light, the hint of a sound, and a wave of heat, and then everything goes gray. I can feel it as just this odd, painless feeling as my body is dissolved into its component atoms, and they go drifting apart. Then I wake up.

[I'm sorry, I have no idea where this came from. All I can say is I am reasonably certain I am not anywhere near being ready to hack up a bus full of people in real life, or blow up myself and others with a nuke. But it was a pretty grizzly dream.]

I was in a restaurant and Katlynne was there too. I think it was a school field trip it stop. Katlynne was flirting, getting to know a guy. The guy had brown skin, was athletic, and generally a cool guy. I guess it was cuz I was jealous, but he made a joke that crossed the line and I told him to leave and never come back to our school or area. For some reason, he left and he picked up that I didn't want him around Katlynne. She was obviously upset that I made him leave.

We and the rest of the class got on the bus that was taking us home. We all lived in a rural area, apparently. On the bus Katlynne was still clearly upset, so I told her that I would tell the guy he can walk freely and be with her. Apparently, Katlynne liked to have this guy get off the bus with her and have sex with him right as they got home. She replied telling me something along the lines of 'you better get him back'. We were no longer on good terms with eachother. It seemed that if I could restore what I undid, then Katlynne and my friendship would begin to heal. I asked her if she wanted me to tell the guy to go to her house if I saw him.'yes,' she said, still upset with me.

We arrived at Katlynne's house. She got off, didn't say anything to me. The bus backed up a bit and the guy got on. As he passed me I told him that he was free to roam about our area and come back to school. He was cool with, though he looked like he was dealing some feelings of rejection. At this point, I felt legitly bad for him. I wanted him to feel comfortable in our area again. I also told him that Katlynne wanted him to go to her house. He said something like,' oh seriously?' I confirmed it, and he got off the bus and toke a short walk to Katlynne's house. On account that the bus hadn't left at the point.

Blue Haired Lady and Four-Ink Pen (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I don't know the order of these dreams to be honest with you, but I'll put this one first because it's not only a bloody tease, it's hilarious (at least when I looked back to it again)

Wow, I'm lucky to remember this much, probably because of that "one" moment that makes me want to remember as much as possible.

I'm inside a very dark area, and the whole dream itself is reminiscent to Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory.

My mission was hard to follow, and I believe there was an optional side mission I could do by getting $5,200 somewhere in the area I'm going to sneak in. I know this because some person in the darkness wearing some kind of jacket with large collar sides told me. It looked as if they had glasses on, but it was too tedious to confirm in the dark.

The only difference in this dream is that the Noise Meter that is usually apparent in the game's HUD is gone, which means the only thing I have to worry about now it keeping myself in the dark. Things start out where I'm inside of a room that's not really full of lights at all.

It seems to have a style of Japanese flooring you'd see from a mini-temple, and the atmosphere of a work office. Even though there isn't a Noise/sound meter to be conscious of, I think made sure I walked silently.

(The bar above "SC Pistol" with the square in the near middle is the noise meter in Chaos Theory)

It's obvious that the person in this dream I'm looking at most of the time is Sam Fisher, but I feel as if I'm taking control over his body.

I walk silently to peek at what's in the other room that's to the right of me, and the way in is opened completely. I see a man sitting down at his desk working on something, and he's wearing a white dress shirt, with the sleeves folded up all the way to his elbows.

He has black pants as well, and when I was trying to sneak past him, I accidentally stepped into the light, raising my light meter to the near maximum level.

I panicked a little and quickly tried to find some dark areas to hide in. Someone quickly asks, "Who's that?" and I start running even faster to the dark source. It was some random DC wearing a dark blue dress shirt and dark dress pants, and I think this automatically raises the alarm system in the building. The music where you're found out in Chaos Theory is playing as well.

I can even feel that soldiers are going to come in as well. Since the people in the room where I'm found out are unarmed and innocent citizens, I just take the initiative to dash out of the room to a darker and wider space.

The next room is a simple hallway, and I run to the right, and see there's two doors. One involves lock-picking it, and the other seems is most likely unlocked. I attempt in pick-locking the fancy looking one first, but I had a feeling something bad was going to happen.

I quickly braced on the wall to the right of me, and there's a line of armed soldiers who look like Tengu troops from Metal Gear Solid 2 running past me. My foot was at least 1 inch away from them stepping on my feet, and I froze in fear. All of them didn't even know I was there....

I watch them go to the door I came into, and then turned back to get ready to lock-pick the door again.

What a flawed security they have! Soldiers with machine guys and metal armor....what a bunch of cannon fodder...

I get the lock-picks, and when I start lock-picking an interface comes up. It shows a see-through version of the door knob, and I see this in the night vision goggles (I find it weird I only use the goggles for this and not while sneaking in the dark...).

I get the feel of the lock, listening for any rapid clicking, and managed to get one part finished. I feel around some more with the lock-picks, and finally get the final part. I twist them together and the door opens. I believe there's a door to the right of the new hallway I'm in, and I go inside, and find that I'm floating on water.....

I go underwater without trying to hold my breath before, and I to my left, I see a portrait of a King with a Crown. The portrait is probably as long as my dream body, and it seems to be covered with some random broken objects. I take them out one by one, and then noticed something sparking on the portrait.

The crown on the King's head is actually real, and after struggling a bit to move it around, I take it out. Something tells me that this crown is $5,000 or more, so I guess by luck, I finished the optional mission that I mentioned above.

The dream shifts, and I honestly don't know what I would do after getting the crown.

It seems I'm back at the same starting point as before, so I guess this must be a dream reset or something.

I crouch down and walk silently towards two people talking casually. I tune in on what they're saying, but I'm also paying attention on whether or not they're going to close in on my location obliviously. They start coming in the room I'm in, and I decided to crease again a wall that I know they wouldn't bother to get too close to.

These are unarmed people, so I had to make sure I was very careful in what I was going to do to them, avoid any kind of lethal damage. I think one person was bald, looked like he was in his mid or late 20s, had a dress shirt and dress pants, but I couldn't pick out the colors.

While I'm staying still, I look at the guy that's like 10 inches away from coming in contact, and I see he's looking down on me.

I'm shocked at first, but seems he's just taking a quick glance at the floor and back to the person he's talking to that's behind me on the left. After they move around a bit, I finally find an opportunity to escape with ease. I go to a room where I have to go up a mini ramp (or stairs, I'm not sure) to get to the higher level, and as soon as I reach the top section...

A blue haired lady comes out of nowhere through a door. She's casually walking while her eyes are closed, and it doesn't seem she know I'm in this area because I dashed to the side of the wall, just barely though. I watched her as she goes down the ramp, and it looks like she's the type of woman with an attitude, I'm not sure why, but from her visage alone she looks like she's feeling cranky or something.

She's wearing a small blue jacket that extends until it reaches her waistline, and has a white dress shirt underneath it as well. She's wearing a blue skirt that goes all the way down and stops a few inches above her knees. The closest figure I'd say she looks like is Misato Katsuragi.

For some reason, as I'm watching her get closer to the door I came through, I wanted to aim my gun at her. A voice warms me that I shouldn't try to hurt her, and I quickly put the machine gun back.

I ignore her and continue going my way, and then I hear her footsteps getting closer and closer. I stay still, and she comes up right in front of me. I look at her lips covered with light red lipstick. I zoom in more on her lips, and she slowly opens her mouth in a lewd manner.

I'm tensed up, and she advances towards me....closer...closer...she tells me,

"You have something I want, and I want it now."

I wonder if she's into S&M.

She puts one of her hands into my pocket, and ruffles around a bit. She takes out a four-ink pen, puts her hand closer to me, and clicks in one of the ink slots for the pen in front of me.

Wait.....wait....you said all those things in a perverted tone, and that's what you want?


I honestly didn't know how to respond to this....

whole dream turned to complete nonsense to me by this point. There's some narration that the same woman that wanted my four-ink pen inside of the stealth camo-suit I was wearing had some slight mental deficiency....not too sure on that though.

That was a complete tease...I can't even recover from that...

Alyzarin's Voice (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

All I remember is talking to Alyzarin, but not really seeing her. I noticed her voice suddenly pitches. The environment and everything else was blurry.

Burning Babies into Diamonds (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember stuffing babies inside of an oven, don't ask me why. While I'm shutting the oven cover, or whatever you call it...it changes into some kind of frosty fridge container. Apparently, the babies would be converted into coal from the heat, until they converted into diamonds.

Once the diamonds were created, the cold version turns on to preserve the diamond I guess. I start scooping out the diamond, but it really looks like glass to me.

Yeah, I'm not going to go far into details on this, just cruel randomness.

Around the World (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

All I remember is going to random places in the world, going to school, and then seeing people trying to go to different colleges.

The area where everyone was at looked like half of an Aztec temple. The sky is beautiful, and even though I can't remember the sensations of the wind, I'm sure it's perfect weather in this dream environment.

I noticed one female who sounds British stepped up in the middle to talk about something. She was wearing a skirt, and a small brown jacket that only extended to her elbows. I think she wore a white shirt with some fancy decorations on it, but I was looking at things far away.

There's another dream shift where I'm standing near a table, and someone is asking me a question, though I can't remember what it was exactly, but I do know that I had feelings of fear is I didn't respond correctly.

My response was related to how moving to another area would be reasonable. And as I'm explaining why, a mental image of a map shows up, and then an airplane ticker with white dotted trails showing it's path becomes apparent.

It seems the plane is moving to Madagascar, but I don't know for what purpose.

There's also another dream shift, probably before all that I mentioned in this dream title itself, but it's just mostly running and following people.
