HoC's Dream

I was in a futuristic city, it was very dark, but there was a lot of lights, and it was all a bit shiny. There was people who looked like they should be characters in the Halo franchise or something. They were dying, but it was unknown what was causing the deaths.
--I've forgotten a bit--
I was with some friends and the girl who's been in some of my other dreams, we were in the middle of a road in the same city, it looked like it had been raining, there was a floating oval shape made out of metal, it looked old, there was metal tentacle like things underneath it. I think it was killing people, but I'm not sure. I got it's attention and it turned around, on the front of it there were two giant holes that had a bright light coming from inside, and the tentacles were similar, but one of them looked like it had a camera on it. I said something to it and it became less hostile and said something to me in a female voice, but I can't remember what it said.

There's a fragment of me being on a bus with the girl from some other dreams. There was other people, nobody that I recognised though. It was too bright to see out of the windows.

There's another fragment of people saying happy birthday to me on facebook.

In another dream I had I was organising something to do with me meeting my friends and something about a party, but nobody showed up because people got things wrong, or they had other plans. For example, one of my friends got the wrong location, and ended up far away; And another friend somehow ended up camping.

The start of this dream is kind of a blur, but I remember being in school, and getting into trouble about something. The next thing I remember (although, I know things happened between them, but I just can't remember -__-) I'm walking down a pathway with my mother and sister. My mother is looking for a house where she needed to go because of that thing I got into trouble for at school (can't remember what it was :/). After a bit of walking, we saw the house around 200 m in front of us. (This was at night by the way).
We saw groups of people wearing dark clothes enter the house, and it seeemed like there was a party happening inside. I immediately felt a chill, like something was wrong with the house. My sister seemed to feel it too, but my mum kept on approaching the house. Me and my sister screamed for her to not go, and tried to keep her back, but she forced her way past us and ran to the house. We followed. My sister and I rushed to my mum, who was standing in front of a gate to the left of the main entrance. (This was within the actual front yard of the house). When I approached the door to see what was behind the gate, hands suddenly rushed from within the gate (i didnt see any other body part) and one of them grabbed me. I didn't know what was happening with my mum and sister, but the person holding my hand (i only saw his/her hand) said, as I tried to run away, "One by One, we'll get to you" or something like that in an evil tone.
The dream then fast forwards to me sitting in my parent's bedroom, with my mother and sister standing in front of me in dark robes, and shiny jewellery around their necks. I realised that my mother was wearing a necklace around her neck with the christian cross on it (we are not christian), and i felt an evil vibe from them. My sister was wearing somewhat revealing dark gothic clothes and also had shiny jewellery around her necks. I don't remember if she had a cross around her neck, though.

The dream (still continuing) then fast forwards to me, my younger sister (the same one from earlier in the dream - shes older than me but the younger of my two sisters), my mother and my eldest sister's fionce in an old car. My sisters fionce was driving the car. It was rainy and dark (at night). We drove (i didnt know to where) on and on, until my sisters fionce suddenly swerved to the right for an unknown reason, and drove off a cliff into a rocky floor below. We all got up safely and scared, and saw some builders working on building some stone pillars of some sort. Something I don't remember well happened, and then one of the builders said (referring to my sisters fionce) "Haha at least he won't be heere for long". The dream (still going on and continuing) then fast forwards to me sitting on a table and chair in front of the creepy house. This time its daylight, and I'm not afraid. I'm sitting at a table with a friend of mine. He smiles, and I wake up.

Shapeshifting Into Optimus Prime & An F22 Raptor. (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I slept inside a sleeping bag on top of a (deflated) air matress in the back of a truck, with a tarp over the top to keep rain out. Not comfortable at all, for those who know how truckbeds are grooved. Also was sharing the space with my dad, so there wasn't much room at all. This was incredibly painful every time I woke up at night as the mattress had leaked air and I felt the hard bed, but couldn't move or else wake him up. It was about 45 degrees overnight and very humid.


Maybe this is why I was so aware and everything was so vivid.

I was on a walkway made of cobblestone, with an outdoor walkway covering over it. To the right was a huge grass field as far as the eye could see -- covered in dew, bright green, and all the same size -- the legnth of mowed grass, but came to a point instead of obvious flat cuts. To the left were some two and three-story tall buildings, laid out like a school (jagged, blocky) but the building in the middle was a blue-grooved-alluminum-made warehouse three stories high with four windows at the top. There was a thick fog which made it nice and cool, very humid, and low visibility.

I was wearing black jeans and a turqoise plaid outer longsleeve shirt with a gray t-shirt under it. I had charcoal/white/turqoise Nike 6.0 shoes.

I unbuttoned my shirt and started running, holding the shirt by the buttons and spreading it out, as if flashing somebody. I ran faster and faster until finally I jumped and the wind caught the flaps of my jacket. I immediately gained altitude quickly and was about 70 feet up before I turned around and kept flying.

Dream skips

Now I was lucid. There was no sudden realization or feeling of excitement. It was like most of my lucids... it just happens. I was back at the same walkway with a friend I'll refer to as "Summer."

While I was lucid, I was unaware that the characters were not real people. One of the many different 'layers' of lucidity.

General Weaver and Tom & Hal Mason from Falling Skies were there on this walkway. They were discussing the alien base a few miles ahead.

We walked down this walkway and into the blue warehouse. On our way Weaver said "be careful, there's aliens out there." We went to the top floor and there was a locker room. Another person, whom I'll refer to as "Danielle" was there.

To every Danielle I know, you're all blonde, but this is not you. Lol.

She is about 115 pounds, 5'9 or 5'10, and has long blonde hair. She popped out from inside a locker behind some jackets, totally nude.


I looked to the right and Summer was totally nude as well. And so was I.

We knew it was a total maze to get to the third floor so we weren't too worried. We locked the door just in case, to give us enough time to put clothes on or hide.

I opened up the Garry's Mod Spawn Menu in my HUD (err... immediate vision) and spawned two elongated blast doors.







I pulled out my physgun and placed the doors across the windows to block the view and froze them in place.





EDIT: removed

Spoiler for Bigger Lulz' and more vulgar descriptions.. you've been warned.:

This cornucopia erupts tartar sauce and butter, nearly blinding me with the sting of vinegar and buffalo sauce. My fruit bat opens it mouth up wide in some sort of bizarre sex face and the lazers start to glow red out the ears and mouth before the head explodes.

In about twenty seconds this all happens and we go at it once again instantly.
After about twenty more seconds the same happens, except Ozzy Osbourne eats the head off this bat instead of it exploding.

[/spoiler]
Well, that was interesting.

Dream skips

I am in clothing again, still the same clothes. I fly down into the walkway and see a girl and her mother. I answered some sort of question the girl asked and the mother seemed happy I did.

"Mommy he can fly!" she said.

"Yeah that's nice honey. Come on now."


I started running toward the other end of the walkway. She looked, just to itch that curiousity of disbelief to see if I could actually do it. I started running fast and faster pulling my outer shirt open again. I jumped and WHOOSH. Wind caught my shirt and I flew up and forward. I turned around and the mother was incredibly impressed and smiling. I had a little trouble controlling it as it was directed by wind (only for schemata purposes) and for a couple seconds I was randomly moving due to random wind. I quickly fixed this issue.

I flew back down and landed upside on a walkway covering support pole just before she turned a corner. Just like Spider-Man does when he goes to kiss Mary-Jane.







She freaked out.
"NO DON'T KISS ME YOU FUCKIN' PERV!"
"No don't worry ma'am I won't!"
"GET AWAY!"

I climbed down and started running once more to takeoff... and started flying again. I flew up about 100 feet this time. It was incredibly humid and I flew at speeds of around 90mph. It was a perefect 65 degrees or so with humidity and wind when I flew as I was wearing two shirts and pants and shoes.

I hovered upright then went up a bit and looked out into the field. "WOW, IT'S SO VIVID!" I thought. "THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. WHAT A WONDERFUL DREAM."
*caps lock necessary

With all the intense excitement I never woke up. The dream never even faded, and I never even thought about it happening. The clarity just got better and better. I could see the dew on the grass from 100 feet up and all the blades with intense color without my glasses. The fog was still heavy but it made for great environment. I flew around, enjoying myself for a bit.






Not the same environment, but that's literally how I was flying -- although I had my shirt flipped out in my hands when I moved forward at great speeds. With hovering I just let it sit on me normally.

Dream skips

I am just off the end of my "runway" looking toward it. I shapeshift into Optimus Prime (that's right, bitches!)






You have absolutely NO idea how weird/epic it is when your body creates a nervous system for this 20-foot-tall (in the dream) mechanical transformers body made of metals and electricity and gears.

A radio signal came in through my new mech body.
"zchzchchzchzcchhhh.... Optimus... the evil boss is planning to attack."


"Autobots... Transform!" I said. I even had the Optimus voice.

I didn't turn into a semi-truck, and the autobots didn't necessarily fit either. I hovered up into the air then transformed into an F22 raptor, as did all my little autobots.







We flew over at incredibly fast speeds forward -- as if I took off from my "runway" and never turned. It was foggy, and we flew above it. I originally had a cockpit view, but I got rid of the cockpit and had just the HUD -- elevation, wingspan, reticle, etc.






Not the same environment, but like this.

We reached a huge asian looking base on a floating island and a ton of aircraft came out. The next ten minutes was epic dogfights with my new mechanical F22 Raptor nervous system (movement and senses.)

I'm really liking this shapeshifting thing. And flying. And not even for animal forms... but mechanical.



Musical Entry to come on this dream soon... It's dubstep, in Optimus Prime form!

Let me preface this by saying I *think* it was a lucid dream. I recall knowing I was dreaming, but didn't even think about attempting to manipulate the dream. Either way, it was very vivid. I also took 200 mg of B6 prior to bed (11:30 or so) and had this dream after a failed WILD between 5:00 and 7:30 AM. Lastly, I'm not entirely sure on the continuity of the dream (what took place when) as all I could remember are fragments from different scenes.

In my dream, I found myself in an area that was a mix of suburbia and country. In this area was a club, which hosted the first scene.
I walk into the lower portion of the club. It's dimly lit, but I see an island counter-top and 2 medium-sized, old-school refrigerators. I open one fridge and take some food out. The fridge has a few things in it, mostly sweets, including one candy that looks like it might be mint Reese's. A child is there and asks me what there is to eat. I open the fridge back up to see that the food I took has been replaced. I also open a pantry door to see that it's also moderately stocked and notice a pack of Red Vines. I tell her that it's mostly just candy.

I walk upstairs to the main portion of the club. There are people dancing to typical club music, but I walk past them to where 2 couples are sitting and talking. I don't remember what they said, but I recall the girl closest to me had shoulder-length, red, almost pink hair.

I walk outside to see an older lady (probably in her 50-60s) with gray hair. She may have been carrying groceries. I know she is the woman in charge of the city/area I'm in. So I stop her and ask her a few things. First, I ask if I am dreaming. She laughs and assures me that I am. Because she knows the area, she tells me that there are places here that I shouldn't go. She says that a long walk from the main area are the "Walls of " something (Absolution, I believe). She says that I shouldn't go over them as terrible things would happen to me outside.

I continued on my way, down a street with short buildings lining it. There is a street to the left with a blue vault door at the end of it. The door takes up the entire face of the building. The vault has a faint golden light coming from inside it. There are police or someone guarding it and people gather at the intersection of my street and the vault street to watch. I know that this vault is one of the places I should not go, so I continue walking. I also think about how it feels like I have stayed there a long time.

In the last scene, I come up an open elevator to a deck overlooking a lake. It looks similar to one I have at my house, but I remember thinking, "Close, but it's just a little off." I looked over the railing of the deck to the water to see a man (probably in his mid 50s) swimming with his granddaughter. I looked out across the lake and heard the voice of the lady in charge in my head say. She said she didn't think they would ever need a weapons cache (maybe also a food bank), but "painters who were given a word instead painted a volleyball court." I believe that meant that some lucid dreamers with control or creators (painters) were meant only to change (paint) a small portion of the area, but instead changed a large portion of the area. After this, I turned and walked up the stairs behind me. At the top of the stairs were several boxes resembling drink coolers. This was the weapons cache. I opened up one of the coolers and took out a spacey-looking laser pistol.
Then I woke up.

Thebeastofold's Dream


Tour of City, Monty Python reunion?

It started out I was giving an old high school friend a tour of my city, onyl my city was completely under construction, as if it was just beng built, we walked down the main highway through town and i noticed my bank had moved and was only half completed, then we cam to a square of a sort between buildings and a lady walked up to my friend and said something to him, i didnt hear what, then she walked away, he turned to me and siad "she was pimping!" um..ok..i said back, we kept walking and my friend walked around a corner ahead of me and when i came around the corner, he was gone and my dog was sitting there waiting for me like she doe when i come home from worke very day...as i got closer to her she took off and rtan into a huge multilevel hotel that wasnt there a few seconds earlier, i ran to try to catch her before she ran inside and i noticed there was a huge tour bus that was painted with an image of our beacon all over it..it looked like a giant bus shaped beacon! and on the side in 3d letters it said "chichen-itza" and had a picture of chichen-ita next to the words, i became semi lucid at that time, i had a strong feeling i needed to be on that bus, but i had to find my dog first, so i walked around the bus and looked at the fornt of the hotel and say my dog run inside..i ran after her, and wheni got in the place was packed with all kinds of celebs...i ran down a hallway to the left and sw my dog go into a room on the left, i started walking in after her and i saw all the members of monty python in the middle of this hugfe open ballrooom type place rehearsing some strange hopping and silly walk dance..they all looked like they do in recent years, so i fugured it was a reunion...so i started whispering to get my dogs attention and she ran back outof the room and under a long table that was along the wall, she ducked into another room and when i ran after her, Ben Affleck was having some sort of dinner party...he saw me, got angry and shoved me through a swing door behind him and to the right..it was a kitchen..he got right in my face and said "matt put you up to this didnt he?!?!" i'll do you 5 better!" allof a sudden i was in a large sauite laying on the bed, and my dog was stretched out on the end of the huge bed..maybe double king sized? i had a feeling he had payed me very well and had given me this room free..so i got up to crqank down the AC, and when i got close to the door i heard voices outside the door discussing something excitedly, but i couldnt make out the words.....i went to open the door to hear better and i noticed a big pit under the door filled with 4 packs of sharmin toilet paper......i looke dover my shoulder and Cote Depablo (she plays Agent Ziva David on NCIS) was in the bed, with the covers up under her arms...she said, i would not open that door if i was you......i looked back at the door, and the voices stopped, and i woke up...

Alpha502's dream

I was inside a small wooden shelter with a few other people, like the kinds they have at campgrounds. There were a few other people there, my brother, and someone I haven't seen before. We all started walking up the path that went up a hill,and somebody said something about lightning.
At the top, there was something that had to do with pokemon cards, and I got mad because I didn't want pokemon cards. An alarm went off, and someone said there was a lightning storm coming. We all jumped onto the ground, and the lightning hit a tree nearby.

-lapse in memory-

I don't remember any details about this dream, except for being inside of a pyramid-shaped room. The only other thing in the room was an alien from Aliens .vs. predator.

I woke up, but it was still early in the morning so I went back to sleep... or I tried to anyways.

(non dream)I was thinking of plans for a minecraft base, and continued doing that for a while.
A few minutes later, the plans I had pictured in my mind started to form a dream scene.
Somebody did something he wasn't supposed to, and was arguing with a warden.
Warden- "You killed _______!" (don't remember who)
Prisoner- "That was the spiders!"
Warden- "No, you used a poisonous knife!"

The warden left the room and locked him in a balcony-thing, with spiders in the fence below.
A glowing yellow symbol formed above him, and an eagle fell through.

My brother woke me up, and that ended the dream.

Alien

Lately, the only fragments i remember are of impossible proportions. That's why i don't write these dreams down. When i wake up from this shit, i only remember something impossible and unexplainable happens. Somethings that aren't in the dictionairy. No point in writing it down.
It's like the shit is so complex as soon as i wake up i can't remember it because my mind would go overload.
Anyway this morning i remembered some vibes of the dream.

I am an alien in my dream. And i'm finding out things about humans. And i do impossible shit. I remember in this dream that i cut myself in slices. And becoming all those slices of myself or something weird. I feel like i'm doing shit that only salvia can do to you in these dreams.

Paragliding

... I'm walking in a forested area. It's dark and the moon shines dimly. I'm on a field trip or something. 60 or so people are walking in front of me. In pairs or families. Including my girl neighbour and her family. I'm with my parents. Everybody was wearing orange raincoats or something.

The whole area had a magical vibe to it. I think i recall candles are lit everywhere we walk.

We are at the top of a really high tower. Way above the clouds. Everybody jumped out of the tower with their paragliding things. Red . My parents go together before me. And i'm the very last to jump.

"Great! Everybody got instructions on how to use this thing and i'm just left here to handle it myself"
"How does this work?" I look and i find a button. Ah! That must be it. I jump!
As soon as i jumped i already pushed the button. The red paragliding thing comes out.
I'm gliding. So fast, this feels so good. I leaned too much down and i rocketed. I ask my parents how do u steer this thing. And my dad says ; "Just act like ur fucking!"
Oh yeah ofcourse! I lean backwards and steering is easy. I let myself feel the adrenaline and wind in my face. It feels so good. I understood now why you really need to do this first in order to know how it feels. It's just unexplainable if u haven't done it. Mid-air i'm keeping my eyes closed for some reason. Kinda scared i guess. I knew i was about to hit the grass. And i land. Blissfully.
Boy, that was fucking great!
Then my dad says our neighbour-girl said she didn't like it and said it was boring. I'm pissed! Boring?? wtf's wrong with the girl. I can't allow that.
I take my bow and arrow and i shoot towards her. Steady. Aim. Fire! I turn into the projectile arrow and i shoot myself into the sky. Flew a bunch of feet. My pointed head hitting the ground. And i wake up.

String of Lucid Dreams - 12-13-14 (WILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had just changed from my school to my friend's school, though the dream actually took place at my school. I was getting accustomed to a new group of friends, and Hamish convinced me to leave during recess and go out of the school.

We climbed through a fence, and started walking down the street when Hamish said 'Shit! That's the principal's car!' We started running back towards the school as fast as we could. I got back in the gate and walked back up to the group. I asked Dunstan what he'd done, his hand was swolen, he said he'd broken his knuckle. We were standing in a circle beside a tree close to the fence line.

I asked fOrceez where his group sits, but I don't think I was ever shown.

--------------

I wake up and want to write in my DJ. I roll over and open it, take out my pen and go to write the date. What the, it's not the 31st, it's the 12th. I started writing when I noticed -wait, I'm in my bed. I was sleeping at fOrceez tonight. I looked up at my clock, it read 8 : 0~. I did a nose RC, aweosme! I sat up and rubbed my hands and the sheets on my bet, but when I got up my entire body felt top heavy again. I struggled against it and got up and out my door. I opened the door into my hallway, though it was a different version. Everything was poorly lit, with a green tinge. It was hot, and muggy. I felt as though I was in a chinese seafood market. WHOA. My head tilted to the side very quickly, I stumbled, fell down and woke up.

I layed in my bed and did visualisations as I fell back to sleep. I ended up without a dream around me, floating in the void. For the first time ever I imagined a dream scene, I believe it was a beach, in which I was able to simply step into. I remember doing the nose RC in the dream. Yes! I'm lucid! WHOA-

I wake up in a false awakening, in a room with fOrceez, his little brother and two of his brother's friends. We were all in the same room, there was a bed on each side of the room and then 3 mattresses in the middle. I got up and walked down the hallway and accidentally walked into fOrceez parents room, crap! I ran back to the room we were sleeping in and tripped and fell in through the doorway and woke everyone up. Some kid tried to elbow me in the balls, and I pushed him away.
I told fOrceez, "Dude, I just had a DILD and then a WILD!" I got excited and noticed the dream fading. I'm dreaming, shit! No! Don't collapse!

I woke up and stayed still and let my mind wonder. I started visualising. I was atop a cliff, looking over the edge and out at the stars. I look back over the edge and jump down. I free fall, feeling the air rush against my skin. I fall about half way down before I start to catch myself, and begin to float away.

This dream then faded into a non-lucid about being in a bird-zoo at night, I was being instructed by someone to use two axes - one in each hand- to kill as many birds as possible. I was just swinging wildly at birds and they'd disappear in a puff of feathers.

This night made me so proud, I was just so incredibly happy with it.

Dream

I was walking home from school and see some of my friends I say "Hey" and he says "Sup" then I see a 2 girls from school one I just grab and hold. Which is wierd because I don't think she's attractive but by this point I'm not Lucid. Then my mate pops out of a car (another dream sign) that he can't drive. He was waering a jacket that looked like someone had painted on it.

Then some guy I saw from before was getting rude to me (like he used to in real life) he was saying some stuff that I didin't like he knows a lot of guys so I just walked off.

Then I was thinking as I walked down my street "Why am I coming from school if it's Saturday?" Now I'm Lucid, now I'm in buisiness. So the first thing I was look up and the sky was so clear it was unbelievable. The first thing I did was go back and find that boy and fight him. With Bo Staffs he had a friend there who is also my friend but he was just backing the other guy so I fought both of them.

I shot a red chidori (like a hadouken) from my hand and hit the other guy (I need to improve my LD control) then I start parrying and striking, it was really cool. It was like when Neo pulled out the post and fought all the Smiths in Matrix Reloaded. Anyway I keep fighting and the dream fades.

I was napping earlier today and I felt the heavy feeling of SP coming on, so I waited patiently and tried imagining dreams in my head. I heard someone banging pots and pans together very loudly, so I tried to ignore it. It got louder. I shouted shut up in my head, and it stopped. Only to be replaced with one hundred people talking loudly at the same time. After this went on, I said be quiet again, and a little girl's voice was singled out. I didn't understand what she said, but it echoed when she finished. I thought about how creepy that was, and then heard static. It was creepy sounding static, like dead air on a radio. Eventually everything stopped and I felt a lead blanket cover me up, pushing me into the bed. I woke up anyway.

I just thought it was neat to see the hallucinations change as my thoughts did. It was almost like they changed with my mood.

Okay so I had a lot of dreams and they were crazy.


- It was N's birthday so I drew him a picture and printed it on a bright blue t-shirt. The picture was weird and had like a hamburger and a dress on it and a bunch of other stuff. I took a picture of the shirt and sent it to him, then I realized I hadn't shown him the picture that was on the shirt yet, so I was like "oh I'll upload that now". He was collecting pictures of people's b-day presents for him and posting them on some forum, there were a lot. Later I was at the mall and thinking I should get a better shirt for the picture, and there was someone else there telling me I should.


- I was talking to N on facebook and he had posted a slightly annoyed status, and I posted a comment and added '<33' at the end even though it didn't fit at all. I was hoping it wouldn't annoy him but I was the 4th comment and all the others had hearts at the end too. When it posted though, facebook changed the <33 to a symbol of a heart with another half-heart attached lol, like this:

- Some evil guy had kidnapped N and me and a bunch of people and was trying to kill us. We were in this huge dark room and there was this big screen at the end that was like a portal we had to get to in order to escape. There were lots of obstacles and dangerous/painful things on the way to the portal.

At one point we were crawling on our hands and knees across chunks of metal on a slight hill, and a girl who was also there said a word I didn't understand. I asked her what it meant and she told me it meant crawling, and was like "it hurts if you do it too long". There were other words like that too, like the other people we were with were using a bunch of slang terms I'd never heard and they'd have to explain.

Then I was able to pause the whole scenario and draw new outfits for N and myself and then we would get them when we went back in. So I drew us these weird kinda futuristic outfits, and then decided we needed flying bikes, so I gave myself a lime green one and him a hot pink one.

Then it went back and we were in the room again with our new outfits and bikes. N was flying way up at the very top of the room which was really tall. I was really close to the portal, so I leapt for it, and right as I was about to touch it, it suddenly went all white, then had white bars across it, then shut off, and a booming voice declared, "PORTAL DISABLED".

The screen was on the side of a rocky cliff, and everyone looked up to the top of the cliff to see this horrible blueish sea creature/demon thing with a human face and head. The evil guy, who we couldn't see, was telling us that this monster was going to send us all through 8 challenges to be able to escape. I looked right into its eyes, and its eyes bulged way out and it shrieked loudly, and I saw this vision of how we all might die. I snapped back and realized it hadn't been real, then told N, who was beside me again, that I'd just had a dream about what was going to happen to us.

I don't know if we did the challenges or not, because the next thing I knew, it was all over and I was talking with N [again?] in a very peaceful nice field next to a pond. It was like watching a movie at this point; I saw both of us from a third person POV, though not very clearly, and I knew everything had finished somewhat happily and it was like a nice ending scene. My hair was in a bun with a weird round clip/tie and he had some sort of nickname for me.

Also sometime after it was over, I told him I had added the bikes at the last minute, and he said something along the lines of "hmm yeah I could tell, you should really stick to a theme" lol.


- Then I had a false awakening and "woke up" on the couch in my cousins' house, where I was actually sleeping. I thought 'wow that dream was really intense, I should ask if he had the same one'. [I did ask later, he didn't remember his dreams.] But then there was this thing where I thought maybe he was actually one of my cousins and that freaked me out lol.

Then my aunt was talking about how she could lucid dream, and I was like "me too!" I started trying to WILD, still in the dream, and managed to get partly into another dream a couple times, but kept getting 'woken up' by my cousins (not sure if I was actually waking up irl but I don't think I was). Finally I made it into a dream within the dream and was lucid in the new one.

I was at a shopping centre in my city near a movie theatre, and my aunt was there as well in her pyjamas, and it was just sort of accepted that we could and were sharing dreams. She ran off, and I walked around the corner, touching walls and stuff and inspecting them and doing RCs.

Then I thought of what I read in the School of Out of Body Travel book, about how it was guaranteed that whenever you stared at something very closely for a long time in a dream, it would start to warp and change. I stared at my finger closely for a while but nothing happened, so I started to wonder if I was really dreaming for a moment, but another nose RC confirmed that I was. Then I saw N was there [again :| get out of my head dude lol] so I gave him a hug.


- I then "woke up" back into the FA at my cousins' house, and they asked about the dream I'd just had, so I told them what happened. My mom then said she was making pancakes [she actually kinda woke me up irl to say we were having waffles lol so it got incorporated] and asked if I wanted strawberry, blueberry or both. There was a plastic cup on the table with a few halved strawberries and three fresh blueberries. I ate a large blueberry and it was really good.

First online entry.

I had a very long dream, probably in the 30-45 minutes before I woke up, about a zombie-like illness that originated from Antarctic chickens. (Well, a facility that was doing lab testing on chickens in the Antarctic). I remember being bunkered down at my post. If memory serves - it may not - I was at the base of a frozen, craggy mountain to my Southeast. Across the frozen expanse to my North was another mountain, much farther away. I may have felt responsible for the tragedy. Directly or indirectly. I don't really remember that for certain, but I do remember a feeling of dread, incompleteness, moral or emotional sickness. Quiet personal turmoil. Not that the idea of zombie apocalypse wouldn't haunt me, but it was more than that. Very psychological and very dark.

Towards the closing moments of the dream, there was a fragment involving my mother and I trying to contain the infestation/sickness. Mom was putting a disease-ridden chicken back into a coop after it had escaped. Wherever we were wasn't frozen, it was grassy, but sparsely and still cold - like a tundra. Mom was trying to maintain that trademark care-free zest of hers', and seeing her trying to maintain composure at the brink, or the midst of an apocalypse only troubled me further.

I was happy to wake up from this one. And happy that I was able to shrug it off, but oh shit did I have a sour taste in my mouth that morning. Figuratively.

Circumstance:
5.5 hours of sleep
Krill oil, 1 capsule
Chamomile tea (strong)
Watched Conspiracy Theory with Jessie Ventura right before bed, the Plum Island Animal Disease Research Facility episode - was the source of inspiration for the dream, beyond a doubt.

I was leaving a convenience store with a drink, and I got into a truck with a few old friends. I was in the back (extended cab) with another guy, and there were two in the front seats also. As we pulled out of the parking lot, I saw that the 'road' ahead of us was not much of a road at all, but a mountainside with sheer drop-offs into water and extremely rocky terrain. My friend Joe, who was driving, decided to take us straight down into the worst of it.. prompting us all to grab on tightly to the handholds on the ceiling of the truck. What ensued was a crazy ride that had us all yelling and cussing- partly from excitement and partly from fear.

Then, rather suddenly, I was sitting in the truck- alone- out back behind my house. My close friends Luke and Jake (who are brothers) were outside, and a train was coming through my backyard. Now, there are train tracks very close to my house, but this was a separate set that was coming right through where the swimming pool should have been. They both pointed it out to me and asked "Isn't that odd?" At first, I rationalized it in the dream and told them that the railroad had recently added those tracks.. Then I realized that NONE of the old pool stuff was there, the deck, etc, like it was back to the way it was before the pool even went in. The thought occurred to me that "surely they weren't able to make it look like that stuff had never been here.. and so quickly.." That's when it hit me.. lucid!

I didn't even do my normal immediate RC, I just told them all that I was dreaming. I started to summon myself a flying mount (thanks to my cool experience with one in my last lucid). I spent a good bit of time experimenting with different mounts, and practiced resizing them (and resizing myself some too) to make them fit. I summoned a small dog, then made him big enough for me to ride. I also tried summoning a zebra, but it kept having a dog's head. I was having a hard time envisioning a zebra head, then I looked to the ground and saw little zebra-head plants everywhere (lol), which allowed me to shape the head properly.

During this time I also remembered to try eye drops, so I fished some out of my pocket (I always carry eye drops in my pocket anyway, so this was no dream magic or anything) and put them in. I didn't notice any immediate effect, but after a few minutes, the dream world did become much clearer and more vivid. I think this was probably all in my expectation. I have lamented the fact before that it takes eye drops a few minutes to actually clear my eyes in real life, so that's no doubt why it took awhile in the dream (I was acting on KingYoshi's suggestion to try eye drops in his dream control class).

Anyway, I finally crafted myself a gryphon (of sorts) to fly on, and I headed out to find the Dream World Academy (for real this time, not just get close to it like I have done twice before). I reached the canyon in which the Academy lay rather quickly, but as I got close, I felt myself being pulled down- as if I were having trouble maintaining my flight. I have had some issues with flying in my last couple of lucids (which is unusual for me), and I feared I was having trouble again. However, I looked back and noticed that there was actually *something* hanging onto my foot and pulling me down. I couldn't get a good look at it (I was riding a gryphon after all), but I kicked it loose and suddenly was flying smoothly again.

Almost immediately the forest canopy on the canyon floor (which had harbored the academy before) disappeared and the Academy was in full view! The architecture did not appear to be normal human construction. I was directly over the 'castle,' and was unable to see how tall it was or how the sides looked. It had 6 sides, but was not a regular hexagon. Instead, it was shaped like a triangle except that the 3 'points' of the triangle were actually straight lines, as if the 'points' had been flattened out. There were towers at each of these points, and the walls of the Academy were wide enough for several people to walk abreast freely between the towers.

The top of the Academy inside the walls was covered in a giant pool of sparkling blue water. I couldn't tell how deep the water was, but it covered the entire area inside the triangular walls. There were octagonal platforms scattered throughout the water, connected by a network of small footpaths. These platforms were COVERED with people, conversing with each other in some alien tongue (I say alien because it did not sound like any human language that I have ever heard), and generally busying about, conducting their work. The 'people' were also alien-looking.. light-blue skinned with intense and brightly colored eyes. Several seemed alarmed at my descent onto the Castle-top, and began speaking loudly and excitedly at me in that strange language. With their intense eyes and crazy words, they were a bit intimidating.

Finally, I noticed a large floor lift near one of the corner towers (it had a weird, angular shape. sort of octagonal but not exactly). I hopped on it, and it lowered me down into the bowels of the Academy. I walked off the lift, through a short sloping hallway with a semi-arched ceiling into what appeared to be some type of "control room," though I can't really say what the room was for. It was here that I finally saw humans, including a woman who appeared to be 'Mariel,' whom I had encountered on my previous search for the Academy.

At this point, I got so into the dream and what was around me that I began to lose lucidity. I felt woozy and laid down on a bench along the wall. Mariel began to stroke my back and reassure me that everything was OK. I lost all lucidity at this point, then quickly remembered myself and closed my eyes, relaxed, and opened them expecting to find myself in the same room. I did, but all the people there had changed from DCs that I had not recognized into people very familiar to me. Then.. WAAH WAHH WAAHH, my alarm went off and woke me up! d'oh!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

After waking, I used the bathroom and went back to bed (the alarm was an early one that I intentionally set a few hours before I actually have to get up). I went back to sleep with the intention/expectation of having another lucid dream..

I found myself riding in a car with some younger kids that I didn't know. I got out my cell phone and one of them warned me about a new law that made it illegal to text in a car, even if you weren't driving. I said that was complete BS, but they insisted it was true. I am an attorney, so I asked them where they heard that and exactly what the law said. They handed me a flier, and I was reading it as I got out of the car and walked with them to a swimming pool where a party was going on.

I was looking around at the people at the party, and I noticed that Miley Cyrus was one of them.. I thought to myself.. "I don't know Miley Cyrus.. this is a dream!"

I was already at the pool, so I decided to try some crazy dives using my dream powers. I lept WAY up in the air and did at least 3 somersaults, planning on squeezing in at least 5 before splashdown.. Problem is.. I closed my eyes during the jump and the spinning motion caused me to lose the dream AND my lucidity. This seems strange now since dream spinning has worked to PROLONG LDs for me in the past, but that is what happened.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Next thing I knew, I was in a new (non-lucid) dream walking down some stairs, but I was holding the same pamphlet about the cell phone law that I was given earlier. I thought 'I was just having a lucid dream a few minutes ago, I wonder if I am dreaming now..' but that didn't stick and I kept walking- remaining in a non-lucid dream.

My phone rang, and the name said Andy Bargo.. I thought 'I don't know an Andy Bargo.. Oh, it must be one of the kids I met earlier in the car." I answered, and it was a different person- an older man that I knew was having some medical issues. He told me a story about insurance companies dicking him around, and asked if we had grounds to sue them. I was thinking that his story seemed pretty ridiculous, and then I remembered (for the second time) that I had been having an LD just a few minutes ago. This time, it DID hit me that I must be in another dream.

I told him he was crazy and I was dreaming, hung up the phone, and starting a convo with the nearest DC about how I was dreaming. He said that was cool, but seemed uninterested. I looked out and saw a pink and purple bicycle laying on it's side on the grass and levitated it. I asked him "Is that bike levitating for you?" He said "No, it's just sitting on the grass..." I started to run some other similar tests to see how he would react to my dream control, but alas, I woke up.

All in all, interesting night. First time I can remember that I had 3 distinct LDs in one night, although the 2nd two were much shorter than the first. I'm glad I finally found the Academy, but I definitely still have some work to do with stabilizing and allowing myself to get into the dream (i.e. play a role and use passive control) without losing lucidity. I can see how people chain LDs from this experience, as my memory of an earlier LD was instrumental in causing me to become lucid again.
