memorable

I had a beautifully vivid lucid dream. 10/10. I wasn't even trying to have an LD last night (I went to bed at like 12:50 AM instead of 9 PM). The dream must've happened at like 7 AM, and it is the only one from last night. It was pretty long, my longest LD ever also. If you see a *, I have provided an explanation at the bottom.

NON-DREAM | DREAM | LUCID

I can't remember anything about the dream before I got lucid. I was under a wide and tall tunnel, almost like an overpass (but with no street on it). There were like six to seven people standing around me, and I had the feeling that they were my human family*. They told me that my faery family* was outside, out from under the tunnel/arch/overpass thing. I flew out of the tunnel to meet them, but first I flew overhead. Just outside of the tunnel was a parallel street, and down the street to my left, it turned into a sort of downtown city (like with large apartment buildings and things like that). The place in front of me was like a village square, with fountains, plants, and "cement tiles" on the ground (and they were sort of torn up with age). I can't really explain about the "tile" thing, but that is what they looked like. Apparently, there was also a very large swimming pool type-thing. When I flew over it, I dropped down into the water a few times (I'm not really that good at flying). Then I landed on the sidewalk parallel to the road. My faery family* was there, and my faery uncle (at least I think he was my uncle) was in a white buttoned up shirt and black tie and he looked sad. They all looked sad, and I got the feeling that his wife was hurt or killed. They were going to get in a black limo to go someplace (I guess the hospital), and I was about to go with them, but I didn't. I turned around and started walking down the sidewalk towards the downtown part. A short girl appeared to my right. She had blonde hair. I decided to walk with her. Then I told her that I was dreaming and that she wasn't real, that she was just in my dream. She just said, "Mmhmm" (yes). I grabbed her arm and asked her how she felt, knowing that she was just a DC and not real. She said that she liked it. I just started thinking that she was really dumb to think that. I pulled her arm and tried to stretch it. It stretched to like five feet and she just giggled. Her arm when back to where it was before and we continued walking. Then we met a non-famous, younger version of Raven-Symoné. Apparently she lived in one of the apartment buildings like on the second floor. I don't ever remember walking up the stairs, but when we got up to the balcony, I pulled them both aside and told them that I was dreaming and that I could give them anything that they wanted (because I'm just generous like that and I wanted to give non-real people something ). I tried to give the blond girl faery wings. I imagined that they were lavender, gossamer, and pointy, but they ended up really weird looking: they were dark burgundy, rounded, floppy, and looked like they were made of satin instead of flesh. I knew they were never going to work or flap, but she didn't seem to mind; she loved them. Raven got all giddy and hugged me. During the hug, she said she wanted a watch. I imagined one on her, and when we came out of the hug, she had a black watch on her left wrist. Then we went in her apartment. She had an older brother and a dad that lived there. When we first went in the door, we went down a hallway and into a small living room. The hallway continued in front of us, to where I supposed the bedrooms and bathroom were. Just to my left was a couch against the wall. Raven's brother was in the middle seat, and her dad was on the seat farthest from me. I sat next to the brother. To my right was a love seat which the blond girl took at seat at, and Raven sat in front of my on the coffee table. I told the brother and dad what I told the girls, and that when I woke up that they would all be gone and I would never see them again. The boys looked at me like "Are you kidding me?" I said that I was sorry they would cease to exist and that it really wasn't my fault. Then I almost woke up, but I pulled myself back into the dream. Raven was now next to the blond girl on the love seat. Behind that love seat was a window with the curtains pulled. I focused on the details on the curtain to stay in the dream and it worked. I then stood up and went to the corner that was to my front left, where there was a large flat screen TV. I touched it like a touch screen and moved things around on it. Raven's dad looked amazed and shocked at me, asking me how I did it. I told him since it was my dream that I could do whatever I wanted. I proceeded to a table to the dad's left, where a bottle of blue liquid was sitting. I picked it up and stretched the bottle like I did the girl's arm. It almost feels like silly putty when you stretch something. The dad's jaw dropped. For some reason, I took a drink of the blue liquid, then spit it in a nearby trashcan (because for some reason I thought that it was poison, like some type of cleaner. When I was spiting it out, I almost blacked out of the dream, like 3 times worse than before, but again I pulled myself back. I went back to the bottle and poured it. I made it pour up instead of down and Raven's dad was dumbfounded. I looked at Raven and told her that I wanted to see her in my next dream, to remember me(as an experiment to see if it would work; See here). She shook her head yes, and I woke up in SP. I lay there a few minutes, wanting to see if I could WILD, but I really wanted to just write that amazing dream in my dream journal. It was a good thing I did, too, because it was 8:30 AM.

* Okay, I have this thing where I want to shapeshift into this character that I made. She is half faery on her father's side and half human on her mother's side. That's why she has two families described the way I described them. The faery side of the family aren't little tiny faeries like Tinker Bell; they are human sized and have wings, described like how I wanted the blond girl's wings to look like.

I am so happy! This is like my seventh lucid dream, and I guess 7 is my lucky number! ;D

Scalpel's Sword

My friend and I were climbing a mountain. It was supposed to be like Mt LeConte, but it was a lot steeper and treacherous. There were more places to lose footing and fall off the side of the mountain and more things to have to navigate.

We made it to a section of the mountain designated as the top for those who could not continue. It was the true top of the mountain, but it wasn't the highest point. To get to the highest point, one would have to climb on man made structures, like an obstacle course.

Having reached the true top, we looked up and saw what looked to be a net above us. A little bit passed us were rocks that were attached to the net. It looked dangerous to walk under.

My friend was really paranoid about the rocks falling, so I went first to show her that it would be OK.

Once we made it pass that, there was a wooden staircase that went both up and down. I remembered from another dream, maybe a year ago, that if you went down then you would come into a room with a screaming lady who was trapped and clawed things into the wall.

I'm trying to search for this dream in my DJ...but my DJ is becoming too big to easily search for things anymore. That is really annoying. >.> Anyways, I wish I could prove it, but I find it really cool now how some dreams are just coming together like a puzzle.

I continued to climb up the stairs. I came into a room I had to climb up awkwardly placed stairs, three feet apart, to press a button and open a box that had a hint for me.

Once I had done so, I read the hint. It read: Go into the bar. Tell the woman that you would like a Scalpel's Sword. Be ready to fight.

I found the bar. I looked at the woman, and whispered Scalpel's Sword. She knew exactly what I meant, and leaped up from the counter and we began fighting, I woke up though.

SHAPESHIFTING!!!

I WISH I remembered ALL of this dream.

I had VERY high lucidity in this dream, and VERY high clarity.

I was thinking about what I should do with this lucid dream, when I realized that I didn't have any lucid goals!

I didn't know what the Nightstalker Task was, I didn't know what the Task of the Month was, I didn't feel like going to the MDRC , so I had to decide something.

I decided on practicing shapeshifting.

I was standing in the grass, looking at my shadow.

I watched as my shadow became the shape of a lion or a tiger, and felt the transformation. It was wicked.

There was someone else there with me, but I forget who.

I remember running around as a lion/tiger, feeling how strange this felt.

Parasitic Invasion

I was in the store with my mother. I kept finding interesting pins on the ground, one said "It's all about the PLUR!" I liked the pin, and stuck it to my shirt.

I was heading back...When everything went silent. Background noise - GONE. Everyone around me - FROZEN.

It was like something out of The Happening.

I stood there for a moment, completely confused. I did a reality check but everything came back normal.

The lights flickered.

I slowly continued to walk until I found mom. She was not frozen like the other people.

I tried talking to her, and then the power went out. Everything was black.

When the lights came back on she was gone, and standing in front of me was a woman with worms coming out of her. She looked like Medusa, but all over.

I decided to GTFO at that point.

The dream skips, and now I am living in a hotel with a friend of mine. The parasitic worm invasion has spread and we are trying to keep it out. It's dark outside, and dark inside. The power has gone out, making visibility dim.

We hear creaking, warping noises coming from outside the room. We know that they are near us.

In the darkness I barely see the worm infested humans creeping towards us.

We decide it is time to go and set this HOTEL ON FIRE.

We quickly grab our things in the darkness and try to run past the masses of worms. We almost make it out, when I realize that I have to go back in to get my car keys.

I'm having trouble running quick enough. We put a bomb in the hotel so that it would explode at any minute. I'm worrying about my friend outside the hotel, hoping she is safe.

I grab my keys and dart out the door. I look back at the hotel...and instantly wish I hadn't.

The hotel...the entire freaking thing...was covered in GIANT worms. Worms that were boring through the walls and coming back out to get us.

I unlock my car door...But my friend has been seized by one of the worms!

I grab a (convenient) blowtorch and blast the worms away. We pile in the car, and the hotel EXPLODES and leaves behind a giant mushroom cloud.

We drive into the city, where nearly half of the population is infested. We decide to gather some healthy individuals so we can band together and fight them off.

We kill masses of parasitic worm people, until I lock eyes with a girl sitting on a small set of stairs with a few other people. She has curly red hair, and looks to be in her 20s.

She instantly gets up and rushes over to us. She attacks skillfully and we realize that she is the creator of the parasitic worm invasion. If we can kill her, this madness can end.

Once we finish her off, her skill shrivels and we find a key in her heart. It looks as if someone stabbed it into her. We wonder what the key unlocks.

Zukin or Zukin?

I'm at Joann Fabrics. I'm deciding whether I should cosplay Queen Zukin or Evil Zukin. Evil Zukin is cuter by miles, but I really like the story behind Queen Zukin. I have trouble deciding.

It'sMEE (Emma)'s Dream

The alarm goes off at 3:27am. I switch it off and drop my phone onto my bed, and drift back to sleep. As soon as my eyes close, I shoot straight back up. I have the feeling I should be somewhere, but I can't quite remember where. I remember my phone went off, because I wanted to try WILD, but I look about my bed and just can't find the phone. Then I remember where I'm supposed to be. I look at my hand, because that's where I wrote the name of the place; 'Chichen Itza' It says, but a little bit has rubbed off. When I look again, all of the writing is there, so I do the nose plug RC... Of course, I'm dreaming. I get out of bed, and I'm magically dressed, my pyjamas are neatly folded on my bed, which appears to have made it's self. I walk up to the door and visualise the Chichen Itza pyramid and tell myself it's on the other side of the door. I slowly open the door with my eyes closed. I can feel a breeze in my face, but it's a warm breeze. So I open my eyes. Yes, there it is, the old dark pyramid. I feel like climbing up it, but look at my hand again to remind me what I'm supposed to be doing. The doorway behind me has gone, but that doesn't really matter so I hardly notice and run up to the pyramid. The light is at the top, so I know someone is or has been here already just I can't see anyone. I hear voices on the other side so I run round there. I round the corner, expecting to see at least two people, because it sounded not like an argument but more of a discussion, but there had to be at least two people so I'm really surprised when I see that there's nobody there. I hear voices just around the corner again, so I dash around there. Now the voices have moved to the opposite side of the pyramid. The voices get louder and quieter and keep moving, but I never see who's talking. Eventually, they sound like they're at the top, so I practically cry out. The voices begin to laugh instead, and I'm sure they're laughing at me. I begin to climb to the top. When I'm there, I'm standing in the light, which is so bright Ican't see. The voices are gone now, so I just sit down for a while, waiting for them to come back. By now I'm so frustrated that I jump off the top. I find myself in bed. I do an RC and I'm awake, but the scary thing is is that the time is only 3:28am. I fall asleep and remember no more dreams that night.

Earlier in the dream I can't remember why or where, but these lizard people were attacking us and trying to get us killed.

Anyways, I the first part I can remember was when I was in Wal-mart and was looking at printer cords for a printer I have when this guy walks up and asks me if I know where I can find a cord for his printer. I gave him mine and said there are more in the laptop section (we were in the photo section) and I requested that he bring another one back to replace it while I look around. Just about then, my brother and the other kid came running up and said that we had to go NOW! Then, about that time a lizard man with a helmet and sword ran out and was on one side of our isle.

Now earlier in the dream I had seen these things and learned two things; they are the toughest warriors of their kind (the urgasts or something) and they are led by a mafia dressed man who is very dangerous and wants us killed for some reason (some prophecy and storyline are missing because all I can remember starts at wal-mart). We fled and ran away from him until another one appeared and we split up. They both went after me and I tried to find my friends to help me out. When I found them, they were hiding in a small area in the corner of the store I ran up to them and then the lizard men split up where one went after them and one went after me. All I had to fight with was a blue razor blade knife I use for construction. I was standing there and my friends were leaned against with the lizard in front of them while I had one watching me. I swung at one and cut a huge gash in its back but then it started to slowly heal back. My friend said "That is why I can't kill them, I have to chop them in half and they are too fast to kill." Then, the power went out -_-, and just at that moment I flipped on the light switch and yelled "We have to get out of here!" I ran and both my friends stayed their and both of the lizard men chased me. I ran with no light through the store and I saw the entrance and ran towards it. I turned around to see how close my pursuers were and saw the lizard man with in reaching distance of me. I panicked and swung at him but he blocked it. We then began fighting and he cut me twice in the leg and arm. I had this feeling I was about to die when he raised his sword and was about to finish me. I then saw an opening and swung my knife at his head and sliced it all the way through his neck. He paused for a second and then he fell and his head rolled off. My new friend and my brother came up about that time and said they were relieved I was okay. The other lizard guy came up and after some fighting, my friend cut him in half with his sword.

We were about to walk out of Wal-mart until we saw outside in the parking lot their leader coming out of a car and an army of lizard men with him. My friend and my brother then ran and the friend said I know a way out and ran towards the Wal-mart employee bathroom. I saw them run that direction and then looked outside and saw the lizard men getting closer with their mafia leader in front. I ran the direction my friends went and got in the bathroom and locked the door. It was a single person bathroom and had one toilet and no sink. Where could my friends have gone? I opened the toilet and saw the water running and thought maybe they went in their (stupid idea). I opened the seat and tank on the back and still couldn't find a way out... As I heard the lizard men getting closer, I saw a gap in the wall and light coming out of it. I pried the wall off and it was made of cardboard. I went in and saw a hallway behind it. I closed it behind me but knew it wouldn't help... I ran down the hallway which was made of wood planks and was lit up by flame torches. I then met up with my friend and brother who said they were relieved they thought I was captured. We heard something break and heard the lizard people were in the hall ways. I ran ahead of them and had a feeling of deja vu although I had never been there before in any dream that I can remember. I started knowing exactly where every hidden passage was and every door. I ran ahead and then waited on my friend and brother to catch up.

There was a door to my right and a wall that looked solid then my friend came up and pushed the wall and it slid open. They were way ahead of me and started to lose me. I was getting lost in the hallways that now appeared to look like a cave or mine kind of, with high ceilings and wooden reinforced walls on the walls. I then was confronted by two lizard men, how did they catch up so fast? I started fighting them and slicing at them but they didn't have helmets and they were not regenerating and were a lot weaker. I killed one of them and ran with the other one chasing me. I knew I was catching up to my friends when I heard them up ahead struggling with something. I caught up and they were fighting the tougher lizards with helmets. Then my friend said "I'll go on ahead, I know a way we can finish them all off once and for all, good luck! I started fighting beside my brother against the two tough lizards and the other one that had been following me. I grabbed a sword and killed the weaker lizard. Then things took a turn for the worst when my brother was badly wounded. The lizards ganged up on him and I stabbed one in the back and they turned around and started fighting me. I killed one and then the other and my brother was on his knees with blood stained clothes. We knew he wasn't going to make it. He looked up at me and said it was over I assured him it wasn't and told him I would finish them all. I walked over to him and stabbed him to speed up the process instead of him bleeding out on the ground waiting on the lizard men to get him.

I now heard lizard men everywhere. I don't know how they could've gotten ahead of us but they did. As I ran through hallways and jumped and dodged lizard men while trying to catchup to my friend I noticed the hallways were getting bigger and they became rocky slopes like in a cave. I then I got to this big room where there were barrels along the wall and two big tables towards the middle of the room and there was a female lizard warrior with a red aura coming off of her shoulders. She was fully armored except for her head and had an evil smile while looking at me. She taunted me saying I was too late and that the end of the world was going to happen soon and they will take over. I drew my sword and attacked her but she was super fast and very strong. While we were fighting I could hear my friend in a room above us that you could get to by climbing a wall with a net nailed to it. He kept saying, "Come on, come on, I've almost got it!" I still fighting the lizard warrior when she knocked my sword away from me and laughed saying, "You don't stand a chance weakling" I ran past her jumped off of a table and grabbed the net and started climbing. She laughed again saying, "Now what are you trying to do?" She climbed the wall next to me and got right at the top and had a glass jar with some animals in it. She said "Here, have some of my special creatures I made just for you. Their were some panthers, some (other dangerous animal but I forgot what it was), and a rattlesnake! Most of the animals fell out of the jar and hit the floor and were really small but the rattlesnake was on the top of the wall about five feet away and was also really small. It started to come near me really slowly. I climbed the top and ran toward the room that my friend was in. The lizard warrior was in the other room and started to hiss and said, "Wrong jar, lets try this one with much bigger creatures". I ignored all of it and ran up to my friend who was pulling on a lever on the wall.

The room looked like a bedroom and above a table next to a bookcase on the other side of the room, was a lever that extended out of the wall and moved up and down. I pulled it down with him but it wasn't working. Then I heard more animals like tigers and elephants and lions. I said we have to hurry!!! He said, "I know I think it's broken or something, I've been pulling it down and it won't work!!!" Then I saw the lizard warrior come in the room. I pulled the lever out away from the wall and then pulled it down and it made a loud thud. The lizard warrior hissed "NOOOO!" I jumped onto the bed and so did my friend and the room started shaking. The lizard warrior suddenly exploded into dust and the cave felt like it was collapsing. I know we made it out, but I know the dream didn't last much longer...

The alarm goes off at 3:27am. I switch it off and drop my phone onto my bed, and drift back to sleep. As soon as my eyes close, I shoot straight back up. I have the feeling I should be somewhere, but I can't quite remember where. I remember my phone went off, because I wanted to try WILD, but I look about my bed and just can't find the phone. Then I remember where I'm supposed to be. I look at my hand, because that's where I wrote the name of the place; 'Chichen Itza' It says, but a little bit has rubbed off.

Non-dream Dream Lucid Nightmare Out of Body Experience Fragments False awakening Early awakening

Date: 2011-07-24
Technique: WILD/DILD.

I tryed out the WILD technique again, but again my mind fell asleep and I had to use the DILD-technique to become lucid.

I'm in the elevator of my buildning (in Frölunda). Carrying something big and white. I get out of the elevator. I feel funny. I leave the item I'm carrying and walk right back into the elevator to look at the buttons, to do a reality check. The buttons are not in their right places and now Im lucid, I wake up...?
I'm in my bed. Eyes closed. I believe I'm awake. Suddenly I begin to float, upward toward the ceiling (I'm lucid again). I start to imagen myself climping a rope and then I begin to float faster. I open my eyes when I realize THIS IS MY FIRST OBE!! My room I dark, just like when I fell asleep, but its still possible to see the whole room. I stop about 30cm under the ceiling. I get a little freaked out...

I wake up.

The dream started some time in the past, showing a time where certain people were actually dragons. They were humanoid but had dragon-like appearances and could transform into a true dragon form at will.

This section was set up like a prologue of a book, and was set near a the base and inside of a cave system. The cave itself was very rugged, and rocks jutted out at various points of the exterior going up to a flat top, that connected to a winding pathway inside that had lava on either side. Most of the dragons were gathered near the base of this cave system, preparing for a huge battle. I was one of them, and I was excited to be about to join the battle. Without them saying anything, I knew we were going to go up against an army of regular people who were ordered to slay all the dragons by their evil king. (I watch a lot of fantasy).

Before I could join them, however, my mom and someone else, who was either a close friend or my dream brother, who were both normal people, told me not to go. I was disappointing, but I listened, and didn't enter the cave system with the other dragons.

It turned out to be a good thing, because when I looked in the caves after time had past, there were no dragons alive anymore. They had been killed by the humans.

The dream skipped later in time at that point, where the king had issued a law that anyone who protected dragons could be arrested, and for all dragons to be killed. I was one of the only surviving dragons left alive, and had been hiding my identity along with my mom and (i think) brother, who were both normal. My life had been a struggle to prevent people from knowing the truth about me, which has starting to get harder and harder, as my powers grew.

The first thing that had started to develop was snake-like eyes. They could be controlled, and made to look like human eyes, but as a grew more dragon-like this was getting harder. My family had house hopped for a few months, avoiding procedural searches for dragons in each town or city. Unfortunately, one time, we were to late in moving, and a guard had come to check if we were dragons. My mom got checked just fine, and my brother was getting checked just fine, but while they were checking him, my powers started to grow, partly due to nervousness, and partly because they were bubbling under the surface wanting to be used for some time.

Unlike normal dragons you see in fantasy, my kind of dragons, had powers in human form and dragon form that were unlike simple flying and fire breath. I could control the wind, had psychic powers, and more that I can't remember. (I'm going to try to use various methods to get back into this universe and find out what else I could do, it was so awesome).

Without my even realizing how stupid it was, I started to test these powers, and made a burst of wind blow over a nearby patch of grass. I could feel the wind from behind me blow over to the grass and make the grass bend and quiver. The wind also made the grass pulse with varying levels of light and shadow from moving up and down. As the wind subsided the guard noticed me doing it, and grew suspicious.

He said he said he would have to do a full body search, (like in airport security), and I knew if I let him he would probably realize I was a dragon. Now not sure what to do I looked at my mom, who seemed to say to try and fake it. I looked at the guard and realized, all I needed to do was stare at this man, and his mind would be mine to destroy. I didn't need to let this man search me, I could kill him in my sleep if I wanted to (pun intended). A this point the dream ended while I was deciding weather or not to kill him.

When I woke up, I used A LD induction technique I read about, and modified it to fit for the purpose of entering the dream and becoming lucid in it. Not MILD actually, it was in the thread of "Silverbullet's possible key to lucid dreaming". Silverbullet showed four youtube videos that really helped. Everyone should watch them.

While I did not become lucid, I did re-enter the dream. WOOT! The dream had skipped later though, and it was me, my mom, and my brother buying supplies at a town that stood before a huge pine woods with scattered mountains. We had realized that living in towns and cities would not be possible anymore, and we were heading to a remote location to perfect my skills so I could defend myself.

After we had gotten the supplies we found an empty area outside the city, where I transformed into my dragon form, and they put the goods in a sort of saddle bag, got on my back, and we took of scouting for a spot to train. We found a spot in the mountains away from people and the chance of forest fires, and got to training.

Sadly, I woke up at this point and never got to experience the training. But i'm hopeful that i'll visit this universe again someday. I have so many questions like: what's the name of the land, what powers do I have as a dragon, do I ever defeat the evil king, do I meet other dragons, do dragons ever walk in this universe normally again.

Now I sound like it's a bad movie or something. But I do want to get back to this universe again, if only to experience being a dragon again.

Non-Dream/Lucid/Non-Lucid/Dream counter

DREAM 1: We bought a new house. I was staying in my room, watching TV. The TV was the same mark as our old one, but it was like 18/19 inch looking and had some serious issues. It activated me the teletext when I tried to move to another channel. I was trying to exit the teletext, but it made my screen black.
I got pissed of by that stupid TV and went to the living room. Suddenly my living room turned to my old house's living room (actual house in reality) and as I went forwards, I saw my mom waving her hand and leaving the house.
Right after she left, the power went out. I was afraid that I will stay like an idiot in dark, doing nothing but watching the walls (walls...are pretty much a good show ), but then I remembered I have a power generator, so I bring it here to my computer and turned it on.
I was then talking to a friend on Skype and after much talking he left a bit. He said he'll return. I was a little...both bored and scared at the same time.
I went to the internet to see my old NSMB Wii works. I saw that on the desert one, you had to make a weird bug to actually pass it . Anyways, I got really bored and very frustrated with the power out. I tried to call my mom and my friend to come back, but no one answered. I was so bored that I started putting the monitor in my face, watching the window (the sky had red clouds ) and weird stuff.
The power finally went in and I sit down on the bed. While literary watching the ceiling, I was thinking about a Mario level and it appeared on the ceiling. It had gray grounds and ceilings, water below, a lot of Sonic like enemies and graphics. It was amazing, but I knew it was an optical illusion and if I look away and turn back, I will not see it anymore, so I tried to look at it as much as I could, so I can remember it.
A voice was talking with me and asking me "Did you though of a new Mario level?". He also said to be careful, not to use very much the use of hallucinogens, or I will get often weird hallucinations.
I looked at the bathroom and I saw a fat woman...I tried to look away, but when I looked back they were 2 of them!! I somehow made them disappear with my mind and another one just jumped out of some baby clothes.
DREAM 2: I was in my school (again ) talking with my peers. Suddenly Miki came at me and stole my jeans (HOMO!! HE'S A HOMO!!!). He put his hands in my pockets to see what I have there. I had my keys, my phone and my money there, so I was very angry at him. After much useless tug 'o' war match for my jeans, he gave up and ran away.
Right when I started cursing him the school's counselor came in and was like WTF! She punished me with cleaning all the books of the library...
One of my friends came in and asked me why I was punished and all. *sighs*

It pretty much seems like there's no justice even in my dreams.

I do not recall how I got there, and I don't really have any great specifics about my surroundings other than it seemed like i was at a waterpark, around some apartments.... I am me myself in this day and age, my fiance is there, im taking care of my son, my mom is also there. We are doin basic things you would do at a waterpark, but then things get kind of wierd... I am down at the "river" only the river is on this huge red waterslide, and we r all carrying around intertubes like we would be floating on a river but also riding them down a waterslide. My son (3 yrs old) and fiance are off doing their own thing as well as my mother... there are now 2 ppl there in addition to my mother, son, and fiance, and a BUNCH of people i donot know, my mom's ex boyfriend and his new girlfriend whom was his ex which is the mother of his new child gunner who is also there, and for some reason I am trying to "save" Gunner (who is 6 months old) from his mother and father (im anxious, sad, scared, and angry) I am reaching down and frantically trying to take him out of his carseat.... I wake... when i fall back asleep, my surroundings are the same, only now my exboyfriend (whom i havent seen in 5 years) is there with me, we are just hanging out as friends talking and laughing, we go and slide/float down this river waterslide and as we r i see my mother, my fiance and son and i wave, i am very happy... then my son wakes me

DELETED

NON DREAM DREAM LUCID

Unfortunately, my recollection of this dream is very vague, and a lot of details have been forgotten. Grr. Anyways, I pretty much only remember the lucid part. Which isn't that bad.

I'm standing outside my house, when I realize something is strange. I don't remember exactly what it was that I noticed, but whatever it was caused me to perform a reality check. I remember being extremely shocked to discover I was actually dreaming, and I had performed another reality check. Sure enough, I became lucid.

Immediately, I went to go find Arthur from Inception, again. Man, I really am obsessed. I have a GIANT list in real life with everything I want to try and achieve in lucid dreams. One of the things on said list is to hang out with the entire crew from Inception. Anyways, I run inside my house. I remembered reading a post on DV in real life about someone using the phone to call the operator and order stuff/talk to people. I picked up the house phone and dialed '0' for the operator. It was a woman that answered, and the conversation went something like this.

Operator: Hello?
Me: Hi, I'd like my call to be connected to Arthur...Smith. (I don't know what Arthur's last name is.)
Operator: What are you talking about? There's no such thing as Arthur Smith.
Me: ...right. Thanks anyways.

Frustrated, I hang up the phone. There is one part I remember where my dad, his friend, and my dad's boss all walk through the kitchen. The thing is, I know my dad's boss is a man in real life though I've never him. But in my dream, he was a woman. Whatever.

Anyways, so, I still at least want to hang out with someone from Inception. I walk into my bedroom and find my cellphone, which I proceed to pick up and call the operator once more. Again, it's a woman on the phone, but she sounds younger and her voice is more high-pitched. The next conversation went pretty much like this...

Operator: Operator.
Me: Hi, could you connect my call to...Frederick Eames? (Once more, I have no clue what Eames' first name is, because the movie never tells you, but Freddie Eames seems to work, right?)
Operator: Sorry, ma'am, he died. Murdered by a group of angry women.
Me: ...I'm sorry, he's dead?
Operator: Yes. Sorry.
Me: Oh, that's okay...
Operator: Can I ask you something?
Me: Yeah, sure.
Operator: How many women did he cheat on?
Me: Too many to count.

So, I wasn't really expecting that answer. I hang up, now even more frustrated. Making people appear with mind power never works for me, but apparently, neither was trying to call them and invite them over.

But suddenly, my phone rings. The number on the screen is just a random jumble of numbers, but I answer it anyways. And the next conversation is sort of like this:

Me: Hello?
Voice: Hi.
Me: ...Eames? (yes, I recognize the voice as our dear Eames. How he got my cell number, I'll never know. xD)
Eames: Yes.
Me: Umm...what's up?
Eames: I...I...SHE LEFT ME! I can't believe it! Right at the altar! (At this point, he's blubbering like a baby. I can't really make out what he's saying from that point on because his voice is really quiet.)
Me: There, there... (I say this in a very awkward fashion, as even though I was only dreaming, it was still weird for me. )
Eames: *continues crying and mumbling incoherently*
Me: Well, speak up!
Eames: *still talking incoherently*
Me: ...are you coming over, then?
Eames: I guess.

I pull the phone away from my ear and look out my bedroom window to see a car pulling up in front of my house. I put the phone by me ear again.

Me: Is that you now?
Eames: What? No.
Me: Oh...

I hang up the phone. Turns out, the SUV belongs to some random lady, who is also British. She gets out of her car and walks...right through the wall and into my room. She says, "were you just talking to my brother?" I reply, "Oh, is Eames your brother?" She looks very annoyed and says, "Yes, and he's a pig. Probably just sitting in his kitchen, stuffing his face with any food he can get his hands on."

I wake up. I know there was so much more to that dream, but I can't remember it all. Aww man. I bet it was a hilarious dream, based on those strange phone conversations I had. I'll try for another lucid dream tonight. Hopefully I'll remember more!

The door bell - multiple false awakenings
This is one of my first anchored lucid dreams and false awakenings. Happened for about 6 years ago. I wrote it down

1. I wake up, the door bell rings, I rush out of my bed to open the door. I open the door, no one is outside.

2. I wake up, the door bell rings, I rush out of my bed to open the door. I open the door, there stands a someone I dont know.

3. I wake up, the door bell rings, I rush out of my bed to open the door. I open the door, there stands two girls.

4. I wake up, the door bell rings, I rush out of my bed to open the door. I stop outside the bathroom, for some reason. My jaws is pressing together and I cant control it. They are pressing together so hard that my teeth break. It feels really strange, very numb but I can feel them break.

5. I wake up, the door bell rings, I rush out of my bed to open the door. I stop outside the bathroom, for some reason. My jaws is pressing together and I cant control it. The are pressing together so hard that my teeth break. Now I get it, this is not for real. I most be sleepning. I decide to try to make my to closest friends appear outside the ringing door. I imagen them standing there. I look into the peek hole. Its not them outside, its some random people. I try again to imagen my friends. I peek and say to myself "what the fuck, hahah!" on the other side of the door stands an amish family dressed in old black clothes. A man, a women and their many kids. I open the door.

6. I wake up. Im still lucid from the last FA. Now before I go thru the kitchen to get to the door I imagen my friends in the kitchen before I enter. It did not work. Instead there is a lot of random people and the room seems bigger. I faint.

7. I wake up. Im still lucid. Trying to imagen my friends in the kitchen again. This time my mother is in the kitchen instead. I faint in slow motion.

The teeth thing, later became my main way to get lucid (I dont use it anymore). The good thing was that I was able to know that I was dreaming but it was a really strange and unnecessary way to do it


The door bell 2 - multiple false awakenings
Before this False awakenings Ive told my brother that he cant invite people over this weekend caus we already had to much parties at our place.

I wake up, the door bell rings. I am closing my window 'caus it full of ice and its very cold outside. Outside the door is people who wants to party.
The same thing happens about 2 more times until my teeth break again and I get lucid. This is the first time I ever try to fly. It took about 4 more false awakenings to learn. In the last one I fly inside my apartment towards the door.

Cant remember more.

Non-dream Dream Lucid Nightmare Fragments False awakening Early awakening

I got inspired by the movie Inception and decide to try out a cool thing. I'm pretty tired and are going to take an afternoon nap. I put a white dice into my left pocket and tell myself to fall asleep, and have a lucid dream. I lay down on my bed and fall asleep really fast.

I'm in a park somewhere, sitting on the bench of a picnick table. I reach down into my pocket where i putted the dice, my test totem. I feel it with my fingers and pick it up. I look at it. Nothing seems to be out of its order. I roll it a few times to see if something odd happens. Nothing happens, its just like rolling a dice in real life. I roll it some more, until I leave it on the table. Im lucid, really achored to the dream and I feel like doing something cool, try out new things. If I can pick up a dice from my pocket i should be able to pick up anyting so I imagen a Uzi in my pocket, planning to do some damage. Again I reach into my pocket. This time I pick an Uzi up. Before me I see a gang of criminals dressed in black coming out of a black car with black tinted windows. I point the Uzi at them and pull the trigger, spraying them with bullets until they all are dead. I say "it would be cool if some cops came by now" and I imagen some cops coming to arrest me.
On the same road the criminals was comes now a cop car with flashing blue lights. Five cops comes out. I start to shot them too. Now everyone is dead and im the evil super villain who killed them. Mohaha!

I wake up.

I. Fragment – Campus Pole Jumping

Early in the night I dreamt something about walking around my campus with S.A and somebody else. I had invented a game where I would locate places where there were traffic poles close together and jump from one to the other.

II. I Don’t Even Know What to Call This One…

I believe the premise of the dream is that the world is ending. Once you get onto a main road you are blasted by gusts of wind, sandstorms, and giant mobs. Cars, busses, and pedestrians battle their way through the chaos. The dream takes place in Wilmington, I can tell because at the end I am trying to get to the beach. Mankind, or at least the entire Wilmington population, is reacting to the world’s end by having a constant party. Almost everywhere I go in the dream I encounter large crowds of belligerents.

The first thing I remember in the dream is being at somebody else’s house. Something very odd is happening with a rather futuristic looking stereo. All of a sudden S.R shows up. When I see her I have something bulky in my hands, maybe a guitar, so I do not give her a proper hug. She tells me that I look sexy?

I’m not sure exactly where this happens in the dream but I’ll put it here. We are standing on a pier that drops at least 30 feet into the ocean. I look up and see K.S driving a large blue pickup truck with stripes on it, laughing, directly at me and gaining speed. As it’s about to hit me I leap up onto the hood, which K.S says is the “right thing to do.” However, instead of stopping he speeds right through the railing at the edge of the pier and plunges into the ocean. I end up sitting on the bottom and narrowly avoid being crushed by the truck’s body. A few moments later I have to dodge a tire as well. I start to swim for the surface, taking long even strokes to try and conserve my energy. I can breathe underwater so this is unnecessary but this doesn’t quite register to me. I reach the surface and somehow K.S and I end up back on the pier. We are talking about what just happened and S.R cuddles me as I lie down on the wooden planks. She has been in the water too for some reason, her hair is wet.

There’s another scene that I can’t place on a timeline or even remember that well. We are standing on some flimsy wooden structure looking at a torrent of water below. Some prank is being pulled on somebody and there’s a humorous tone but I suddenly see a figure with a ghost-like presence. It is a black woman dressed in colonial period clothing with a large basket looking very grim. I turn and walk away from the place saying “I don’t like it here. This is a bad place.” Whoever is with me asks what I mean and I say “It’s a bad place in history.” (Moving to the South to go to college, this is a vibe I get from a lot of places.)

A short while later I am indoors somewhere and on a large television screen watching a replay of some other person going through the same thing I did. Apparently all these are filmed for a show. The person I’m watching, though, isn’t so lucky. He is tagged head on by the truck and both of them go careening over the side.

S.R and I walk around outside for a time observing the ubiquitous ongoing partying and eventually we get back to my house. However it’s not the same at all. It is very large and furnished nicely inside. I believe there may be an extra floor to the house as well. As I climb the stairs to my room there are people standing in the hallway, evidently guarding my door. By the time I open my door I am curious and somewhat worried as to what’s going on inside.

I find two people on my bed. One of them is P.S, the other is a dude who I believe I know but can’t remember now. I am silent for a moment, then point at P.S and exclaim “Okay…that is fucked up.” I start making a whole bunch of quips at them, all of which revolve around the fact that I want them out, immediately. For some reason they just sit there for awhile (P.S at one point says “I’m shy about this kind of stuff” “No you’re obviously not!” I answer). Finally they leave and from downstairs I hear S.B say “Were you doing something messed up?” A.L (her boyfriend) yells “No she wasn’t!” in some kind of denial. I shout down the stairs that she indeed was and I’ve just witnessed it. However I finally have my room to myself with S.R now so I retire there.

But, when I shut the door again there are 2 more people in the room and they refuse to leave no matter what I say. I’m being somewhat nice about it but I’m still becoming irritated. I finally abandon the situation and go downstairs to talk to my roommates. On the way back down the stairs I see P.S standing there, and without stopping I quickly mutter "That'sfuckedup" again and keep going by.

I get to the kitchen, which has large windows that are letting in lots of sunlight and nice cabinets with a granite countertop in the middle of the kitchen floor. A.L tells me that they’ve just won a bunch of games of beer pong, and as he does this his face undergoes noticeable, strange distortions and briefly changes color. He's upset about many things, I know, and I can certainly relate. However, at this point I become very obnoxious. “WOW!” I yell, annoyingly sarcastic and contemptuous, “These guys just won! They threw a ball in a cup and drank a whole lot of BEER! They DRANK A LOT!!!” S.B motions to me and tells me to quiet down and I say “It’s okay S.B, we’re DREAMING!” (This is the weird part, I hadn’t been aware that I knew that. I had no moment of realization, no slamming into my head, all of a sudden I just knew it. The dream was amazingly vivid throughout in either case.) S.B says “ohhh” and suddenly he looks extremely solemn. I look over at A.L to see if he is reacting the same way but I wake up.

I fall back into the same dream not too long after.

It is now night time, I am in my backyard with my dad. I've lost lucidity. My mom has uncharacteristically joined the ongoing party. S.B and R.M are tripping acid. S.R is gone. My dad is sitting and looking very unhappy. I finally approach him and ask him if he wants to go to the beach. At first he declines but then decides he might as well join. I go into the house and start making preparations. S.B asks if he and R.M can go. I am reluctant because my dad is with me and they’re tripping, but I accept anyway (I know how much fun tripping on the beach is.)

As we are leaving there is a conversation going on about some movie poster that is hanging on the wall at the bottom of the stairs. The movie it advertises does not exist, nor do any of the people in it. However, B.R is giving a rather detailed and lengthy explanation of that group, apparently it’s a famous group that makes a lot of movies together. I wish I could remember anything he said because the ideas seemed good, I just didn’t realize until I woke up that it was all unconsciously made up by me.

When the whole crowd is ready it is again daytime. This part is difficult to explain. We will have to take a golf cart to the beach and we will also need a tail gunner. There is a large elderly mob on the street that apparently will swallow us up if we try to drive anywhere unguarded. I take charge of the situation. “You two,” I say to our two psychonauts, “get in the back and don’t say a fucking word.” They get in a little compartment in the back of the cart. “M.C.C,” I say to her, who is suddenly now with us, “make yourself comfortable.” She takes the front passenger seat. I am driving the cart, however I am sitting behind her as I do this. The seating position ends up making no sense. The tail gunner, who I have to assume is my dad, somehow ends up behind the backseat. Oh well.

We have it timed out that he will start firing as soon as I hit the gas and leave the driveway. I see the group in the street, they are marching in formation wearing purple robes. I finally peel out and start driving as fast as the cart will go (which is not very fast) and dad starts mowing all the people behind us down. However, this is not the only mob of people nor the only obstacle to be encountered.

We come to the intersection of the busy road and see the ridiculous, anarchistic scene described at the beginning of this entry. I am trying to take a right turn but there are so many cars and people coming that we must sit there for quite awhile before I speed out into the road. Every once in awhile we are blasted by sand and wind and I must constantly dodge cars and people in the golf cart.

The last thing I remember before I wake up is that I have found a straight, paved strip of pavement down the middle of the street. I stick to that and speed forward. On my left there are huge busses passing by with passengers that I intuitively know have come from the beach. There are various warnings running in electronic letters across the bodies of the busses. They say to turn back now and avoid the suffering that I am sure to encounter. I wake up, wishing we could have made it to the beach and seen whatever was going on there.

If you've read this entire thing, which I don't see why you would, you've just seen the most recall I've ever had from a single dream.

So here I am in my dream, and at first it's just a normal dream. I'm walking down my road, and then I turn the corner, and there's this HUGE PIECE OF CHEESE. I'm just staring at this piece of cheese, and my first thought isn't 'Oh, I'm dreaming', it's 'How am I going to get through?' because the cheese is so large, it's just sitting there blocking the road. As I'm wondering up to it, that's when it hits me- I'm dreaming. I pinch my nose and, of course, I can breathe through it. Then I think about trying to get past this cheese, and when I look at it again, it isn't a giant slice of edam anymore. It's swiss cheese. I jump into a hole, and I'm about two thirds the way into the cheese when I begin to wonder what I'm doing crawling through the holes in a giant piece of cheese. I sit down, and pinch my nose again, making sure for definate that I'm asleep. I shove my hand into my pocket, which a second ago was empty, and grab a shovel. Normally a shovel wouldn't fit into my pocket, but today it does, and I dig my wa out of this giant swiss cheese. The top is high up, about thirty metres tall, yellow and shiny. I jump off and land perfectly on my feet. Looking around, I see I'm not in my street anymore, and it's dark now. When I turn around the cheese is gone, and instead, there's a huge tall building. There are lights on at the top and the door is locked. I'm about to run through the wall, when I wake up. I just wonder why I dreamt about cheese.
