    1. "The Coin Room" (Dec 13, 2010) My First Lucid Dream

      by , 05-01-2011 at 04:09 AM
      I was standing in a room looking at the wall. My first view was of the light of the day coming threw the window on to the curving white walls. I looked up and noticed that the window was about 50 feet up. The top of the window was arched . The wall was so high I could not see were or if it ended. The room was basically shaped like an upside down funnel. When looking up it seemed not to end and the circle was smaller the higher up the wall. I began to look around the room and don't remember too many details other than it was (I don't know the correct term) decorated in an Indian/Tibetan look and every thing was against the wall. I looked to the left and I seen an older bald man with facial hair, shirt less but dressed to match the room, sitting in a lotus position meditating. There was an alter behind him with burning incense candle holders. Not the exact words, but he told me "If you stay at the house too long your dream will turn into a nightmare. Leave before the wolfs come". While he spoke I was looking at the details of the stuff behind him. Noticing that the floor was metal looking and looked on the floor from the wall to myself and noticed the floor had engravings all over it. (I didn't remember the markings when I woke.) He was sitting were the head would be on a quarter. Then I looked at my hands and said "Hey, I'm dreaming" I felt my body change from being weightless to having weight. I got so excited about becoming lucid for the first time I started spinning around in circles. (Later I read that is a trick to prolonging a dream, so I felt so lucky that was my first instinct.) When the excitement wore off a bit, I decided I wanted to fly. ( I must say I regret not meditating during this dream for many reasons.) So I tried to jump and fly and failed. I then decided that even if I could fly in here were would I go any way. So I found the door behind me and tried to open it. It wouldn't open. I fought with it and tried forcing it open. I got so frustrated that I then lost my lucidness, weight, and body pulling myself threw the door and in to the air a couple feet. I floated down viewing an outside scene. There were trees, the grass was mowed and a car parked in front of me. J.R. then got out of the drivers side of the car. He waved at me to get me to come get in the car as he got in on the passengers side. I went and got in the car. My son Simon was sitting in the back behind me. We then drove to the house I knew we was going too. When we arrived we went into the kitchen and sat down with my grandma on my dad's side. I don't remember anything she said. I was too focused on the neat shelving system behind her. The best description I could think of was that it looked like a chess bored with no back to it and not as many rows of squares. It had different types of rocks and crystals in many colors and shapes. Then I noticed she had the huge crystal rocks (almost as big as a basket ball.) That I had found as a child with my friend kyle (but couldn't even keep one because his dad wanted them. His property. Jerk.). After seeing that I was done talking and had JR watch Simon as I unpacked our stuff. I was putting my stuff away in the bathroom when I heard someone knocking on the door. I walked out of the bathroom, past my sister and one of friends naked heading toward the bathroom. I walked down the hallway to the back door. It had windows so I could see who was out there. It was Reece (guy on youtube) He had his hood covering his hair and almost mistaken him for thomas (sisters x). Then I seen he didn't have blue eyes and his skin was lighter. I was happy to see him instead od thomas and wanted to kiss him. I then tried to let him in so I could. Another door I couldn't open but I didn't let myself get frustrated because its embarrassing for me. So I asked him to "go around to the front door". And he nodded a yes and walked toward the font. I then headed that way, successfully opening that door but he never came. I then remembered what the meditating man had said and felt that my dream was beginning to turn sour. I ran around the house packing my stuff and telling jr we had to leave. I went into the bathroom to get that stuff and couldn't find my face lotion. I then decided it wasn't important enough to stay and risk not leaving before the wolves arrived. We then left. The road seemed elevated because the ground was covered in fog. The dream continued for another scene before waking but I forgot the end while writing the beginning.

    2. Weird dream that made no sense

      by , 04-30-2011 at 09:47 PM
      So I was driving down a dirt road when we come to this gate where this guy says you have to pass 4 challenges to get to walmart. Never seen any of this stuff in my life. The first challenge was to to pay exactly $1.23 to get in, no more no less. So I did that. Then the next challenge, this weird doll thing through knives at me and I had to keep dodging until it was done. I actually got hit once and felt discomfort, but it went away quick. The next challenge I had to catch five crabs and shrimp and stay away what the guy called "falsegars" but they looked like eels, not gars. And the shrimp look like like long pink snakes. The crabs looked normal. The "shrimp" tasted like coconut cake. I then caught my told amount. Then for the next challenge I had to go into a gas station, eat only 1 bite of a protien bar and walk out the other door to go to walmart. I ate the one bite then I woke up. This dream made no sense to me.

    3. Let me wash up in the TIDE

      by , 04-30-2011 at 09:29 PM
      So, been a little distracted lately and haven't been focused on my dreams. I've been wanting to type up a very memorable dream I had about a year ago, so here it is.

      I was in the ocean swimming towards land with a bunch of killer whales and dolphins. I was sort of riding with one of the whales but on his belly-side. I don't remember hanging on to him but it was kind of like he had his own gravity (not a fat joke, mr. whale guide.) Anyway, he and all the rest of the animals were splashing in and out of the water working towards land. He kept getting higher and higher out of the water and coming down even harder each time, sinking. I can recall being in the water looking to my right to see a line of dolphins doing the same thing. And when we were in the air I could see a city getting closer and closer. So I lost the whale once, he landed in the water and I sunk away from him and got scared thinking there were going to be sharks. Sure enough, a massive hammerhead appeared but he wasn't attacking me, he was leading me back to the whale. And the whale had waited for me. Then we continued on. What I felt in the dream, trying to figure out why they were doing this, I noticed the waves that they were making were going to wipe out the city, and that THAT was their intention.

      When I woke up I started thinking about the song Aenima by Tool. Anyways, this was a non-lucid, but amazing.
    4. DEILD Explorations, Part 2: Seeing Hyu and Testing My Dream Senses

      by , 04-30-2011 at 09:13 PM (Krista's Dream Journal)
      Dream - Lucid

      *Continued from Part 1*

      I then heard music playing loudly. The singer was a male, though I don’t remember the words. I remember feeling someone else there with me. I thought to myself
      “How can I sleep with the music so loud?”
      Oh wait…I’m already asleep. Duh. The music then changed to a slower, lyricless song. It had a lot of sitar in it. I decided to enjoy and listen to the music. I felt myself falling, falling, falling, but not fast. It was a slow fall as I tumbled in space towards my dream.

      The music ended as I landed in my dreamscape. I had entered the dream with some guy. We were in some office-type room, each of us behind a computer. The guy started to talk about the music that had been playing. I examined my hands. Too many fingers, and some looked like toes. I started walking around the room trying to figure out what to do. I floated around, looking for empty walls to draw portals on.


      I then woke up again. I immediately DEILDed into another dream, feeling the same slow tumbling sensation as before.

      I was in a room similar to the one I had been in before, but the guy was gone. I decided to try to see Hyu. I repeated my portal process of writing his name on the wall with my finger, drawing a circle around it, and saying where I wanted to go. It looked the same as before; similar to oil rainbows. I colored the portal in with my hand and entered it.

      I then fell into darkness. I was in a pool of gooey stuff, it felt weird, but not gross. I then saw an opening into another room. I started going towards it. The room was colored dark blue with a poster of guitars on the wall above a desk. It was daytime outside, I could see it through the windows. At first, I wasn’t sure if I had ended up in the right place and hesitated, but changed my mind and went in.

      I entered the room, and turned the corner into another room. Sitting in a chair to my left was Hyu. He looked older than what I remembered.
      “Hyu!”, I said. He replied
      “Hey Krista, haven’t seen you in awhile.”
      I had this bizarre feeling that he was awake. It was like he was awake, but seeing me at the same time, even though I was asleep and dreaming. He then got up out of the chair. He had a backpack on his back. He was on his way to class. He started to go towards the front door.
      “Can I come with you?”, I asked as I followed him. He told me no, I couldn’t. He had some report to do or something. He walked out the front door. I said something to him about wanting to see Japan, and if I should do that next. I can’t remember his response. He was a distance away from me at this point.


      I then woke up again and DEILDed.

      I was looking up at trees silhouetting the night sky. I tried to fly upwards, but woke up.

      DEILDed again.

      This time, I saw a town close to mine in waking life. In the dream, it had been devastated by a tornado (not so in waking life). I remember seeing an older couple in front of a destroyed building. The woman was bawling, saying that the town should be taken off the map. I was semi-lucid at this point.

      I walked around in the rubble for a bit before I snapped into full lucidity. I phased through a wall to get outside. I then started to walk into a green field. For some reason, I threw my phone onto the ground. It shattered into many pieces. I decided to pick up one of the pieces, turn it into something yummy, and eat it. I picked a piece up. It felt like a light, powdery cake. I ate it. It tasted like powdered sugar.

      I then decided to test my other senses. I looked all around me, taking everything in. I saw many green trees, and some horses fenced in a barbed wire pen in the distance. I tried to smell, but for some reason, I couldn’t smell anything.

      I then decided I wanted to ride a horse, since it’s so hard for me to do so in waking life because I’m extremely allergic. I walked up to the pen. My friends Courtney and Caitlin were there. I decided that since I was dreaming, I could phase through or climb the barbed wire pen. I started trying to climb it, but it felt very uncomfortable. Well duh, it’s barbed wire…it’s not gonna feel good. As I tried to climb down, I noticed I was stuck. I looked down at my feet. There was a screw that had gone through the bottom of my pinky toe, rendering me stuck, though there was no blood. My first instinct was to panic; that stuff grosses me out to no end in waking life. I then decided I needed to calm down and figure out how to get unstuck. I made a comment about it to Courtney, saying I was stuck on a screw.

      I then made the decision to yank the toe free. I had to face my fear. Without looking, I yanked my toe free of the screw. It hurt a little. I looked down at my foot. Still no blood, but I could see where the skin was broken and torn. I imagined a bandage on my toe. Courtney commented on how cute the bandage was, and that she never had cute bandaids. I looked down and there were Hello Kitty bandaids on my big and second toe, but not the pinky toe. I tried again, and a bandaid appeared on my pinky toe.


      Then, I woke up again. I was going to DEILD again, but was afraid I’d never remember all this if I DEILDed too many times in a row. O_O

    5. DEILD Explorations, Part 1: Shooting For a Resolution

      by , 04-30-2011 at 09:07 PM (Krista's Dream Journal)
      Dream - Lucid

      I remember being outside with some group. It looked like it was around dusk. I looked up at the sky, and the dark clouds were making spirals. I knew that this was not a good sign. I then saw a tornado come out of the middle of one of the spirals. I then saw a flash of a television screen. The TV said that we were under a "Huebert Warning", meaning that the potential for bad weather was very high. It was called something else, too, something that started with a Y, but I can't remember what the name was.

      I then remember seeing a man in camo, a soldier I believe, stuck inside of one of those shovel-scoop construction machines (the actual name of this machine evades me right now). The shovel kept closing in on him over and over; it was out of control. He looked like he was in a lot of pain. I then remember seeing many people trying to help him get out of there. They finally rescued him.

      I then remember being at McDonald's with my mom. She was trying to order this chicken salad wrap, but without the wrap, because she can't eat gluten. The lady behind the counter seemed annoyed and just generally upset about being at work. She kept misunderstanding my mom, who kept trying to order. I remember seeing the chicken salad spread all over this chunk of wheat bread. The lady finally really understood what my mom was saying. Then, my mom tried to ask for celery and carrots, and the lady said that they didn't have them, or something. I butt in at this point, because I saw some sitting on the counter. I said
      "She wants those, the celery and carrots."
      My mom then ordered a fruit bowl instead.


      ~

      I was at the coffee shop I work at, but it looked much different. Everything seemed spacier. We weren't getting a lot of business. I then remember hearing that there was a tornado warning, and people started to go to the back. I was directing them as they went. I then saw them pass the back room, and go outside, where it was nighttime and raining. Outside was the shore of a lake. Beside the lake was a tree shadowing some green grass. Everyone went to sit outside by the shore. I thought that was kind of silly, since, oh I don't know, THERE'S A TORNADO WARNING?

      Then, I turned to go back to talk to my boss, who was in the office (which was MUCH bigger than in waking life). She was sitting at the computer. She saw me enter, and said something about how we weren't going to the back yet, because the radar wasn't showing anything bad yet. I told her
      "I know, everyone went outside."
      She then got up and hugged me, spinning me in circles. I closed my eyes, enjoying every second. I felt so loved at that moment, like she was a mother to me almost. She started to crouch down closer to the ground as she was spinning me, and I felt like I was 4 years old again, being held in the arms of my mother. It was such a warm, loving feeling.

      Then, I remember some guy coming from behind me to ask about a sandwich. It sounded like Chris, my ex, so I kind of snapped at him. I turned around, and it wasn't Chris. It was some shorter bald dude. I quickly apologized for the misunderstanding. I told him I had thought he was someone else. I went behind the counter to find his sandwich, he had said something about a "Panera salad". Weird.

      This must have triggered something in my brain, because at that moment, I did a reality check. I counted 6 or 7 fingers, with some being very short and stubby. It's a dream! I started trying to think of what I should do. I almost just took off to fly, but thought better of it, knowing that I had a goal preset before I went to bed, though I couldn't remember what it was. At first, I just started to explore, walking around a bit. Then, I remembered my goal: To resolve something with one of my exes.

      I was still behind the counter, and I floated up to where a blank wall was. At that moment, inside the dream, I had an idea to improve the functionality of my portals. I started to write my ex's name on the wall with my finger. As I wrote it, it showed up in the oily rainbows that have occurred with some of my other portals. I then drew a circle around his name with my finger, and calmly said "I want to see A". I started to color the circle in with my hand, and then it was an oily rainbow circle. I jumped through into blackness. I was afraid I might wake up, but tried to shove that fear aside.

      I was then standing in a room somewhere. My ex was right there in front of me, sitting at a computer desk, doing something on the computer. I got his attention by saying his name. He turned to look at me. I rubbed my hands together so I wouldn't lose the dream.

      "Hey Krista," he said "what's up?"
      I sat down in front of him and said
      "A, I have to ask you something. Why didn't we work?"
      He looked at me for a minute, then disappeared. I was then holding a phone, and he was on the other line. I tried to get him to reappear, but gave up and just talked to him on the phone as I got up and walked down a concrete path. He started telling me about how he had another girlfriend now. I then told him
      "I'm just not affectionate, A. And you are."
      He said
      "What do you mean?"
      I started to explain that I'm not a touchy-feely person, and then got no response.
      "A? A??" I said into the phone. Nothing but silence followed.


      I felt the dream ending. I woke up, and stayed completely still so I could DEILD.

    6. Lucid Dream #37

      by , 04-30-2011 at 06:06 PM (Warbenifit156's Lucid Dreaming Adventures)
      Lucidity: 7/10
      Vividness: 8/10
      Length: ~7 Min.

      Me and some guy were standing on a sidewalk. We were both armed with rifles. There was a gate near us so we walked up to it. Then started shooting at people that were next to the gate. There was a gun that he had that let him create barriers so I grabbed it from him and covered him. Some guy popped out just like I expected one would. So I shot the barrier directly at him and he was cut in two. But then someone else jumped out when I wasn't so tense. Going after my partner which easily took that guy down. I gave my partner a weapon of mine and grabbed another. When we were both ready to move on we proceeded through the gate. There was a large open field with some trees here and there. There were many ninjas there such as Sakura who was riding some sort of floating thing upside down. They were heading toward a very large park. So I concentrated my chakra to my feet and ran across water just to try it out. Then I applied more chakra to my feet and flew very high. I could see everything from up there. The park was a battlefield. There was a huge explosion every once and a while. I swooped around and landed near the action. I killed an enemy troop and wielded his weapon. It was a fully automatic rifle. I ran in a hurry across water and wasn't doing as good as last time because I wasn't concentrating on keeping myself up. I made it into the building and started to shoot people left and right. After that battle I wasn't lucid anymore.

      Lucid #11 (wbtb1) in my room (WBTB)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      [/COLOR]I wake up At 11:30. I go to the bathroom, because of a stupid pimple. After 10 minutes i go back to bed. I do some breathing meditation and am going to try wbtb. After 40 minutes i turn on my right side and wait to get asleep. At some point i feel like someone is lifting my bed in the air and is slowly rotating it towards tha back wall. I felt my body crawling and my head hitting the wall.I am in a dream and lucid. I know it even though everything is still black. I open my eyes. I am in my room in the exact same posture. I sit up and hold on to my bed. The room seems pretty empty. There is only the wardrobe which is more wide and doesn't touch the ground. It's like it's hanging from the ceiling. The room is really bright. I feel dizzy and thing get blurred out and cleared again and again. They finally clear up for a while. There are many objects on the bed. I think of touching them to stabilize the dream. I reach for something that looks like my keys. I grab them and as i bring them close to me suddenly i can't pull them closer. So i keep staring at them, not sure what to think of. I slowly realise that what i am looking at is not my keys but the head of a person in a poster i have in front of my bed and i am... awake with my eyes open wide! There was no dream-fading-away part and i don't remember opening my (physical) eyes! It was a really strange experience but also interesting. First Wbtb.

      Any ideas on what that could be? Anyone with similar experiences?
    8. Shower Time Wake Up Call

      by , 04-30-2011 at 04:23 PM
      Regular Dream Lucid Dream
      R and I a visiting a friend of mine C's apartment but he isn't home. We ride together in an SUV, he's driving. It's nighttime on the highway. We are having an argument and in the heat of the moment he misses a turn and goes through a guard rail. We slide through a muddy field. I am freaking out but I'm not terrified. I get out of the car and tell R that I'm going to find my way.

      Now I'm at the apartment. I let myself in. I am feeling filthy so I'd like to take a shower. I go to check out
      his shower and it's an awesome huge red brick room that is dark but not too dark with a toilet stall in one corner and a giant wall dedicated to a shower. The door to the room doesn't lock. I hear sounds in the other room so I go out there and see my friend R with a cute little blonde girl about 22 or so. They are sitting on a couch in the middle of the room. They are playing with a small magnet puzzle toy. I ask them what is that all about but they don't hear me. I try to look again but I see that R is getting his mack on pretty hard so I just back off. C comes home and tells me that my wife is going to call me in a few minutes and that she may be angry. I ask him if I can take a shower. He says sure.

      I go back in the bathroom, get naked, notice a couple of different piles of clothes on the floor and put mine in separate pile. Find a green towel folded on a shelf and go to turn on the water. I'm bathing and the door to the room is behind me. The water is warm. There is a knock on the door, I say, come it but I'm naked in the shower. I hear the door open but don't look. I look at myself in the mirror and I can see that my hair is long and wet. That's when I realize. I have a shaved head right not, not long and wet hair. I look out the window and see a large tower, I also know that I'm in the middle of nowhere, not a city. I take a dream breath to secure the lucidity and it's confirmed that I'm dreaming.

      I say, who is here? And the blonde that's with rusty says, just me. I put on my boxers and turn around. She is sitting on a brick window sill and is completely naked. I walk over to her and get right up in her face. She smiles but backs off a little bit. I say, excuse me, do you mind if I sit next to you.
      She says, no, that's fine
      I ask why she's naked and she tells me that she didn't want me to feel self conscious.
      I ask if she wants me to take my boxers off and she tells me how about I just let the little guy out. She reaches in and starts playing with me. I'm staring at her breasts as she plays with me. She says, I bet you like this, and I bet you really like when I use both hand and play with the head.
      I get a huge rush of pleasure and wake up.

    9. Apparently my subconscious likes him too...

      by , 04-30-2011 at 08:27 AM
      Finally a positive DJ entry from me.

      So recently I've been getting into online dating. Just a few meet-ups more than dates w/ guys, not much to say successfully in that department BUT a few weeks ago I decided to join one of the large ones with all those compatibility questions so it seems like I'm getting more SERIOUS. My first match on that service messaged me and it's not been a few weeks of constant texting. I'm meeting him tomorrow, and the dream I had last night relates to that.

      In my dream, it starts out with me in my roommates at my apartment at night. I get a call from this match saying he's outside. I know that in the real world I'm supposed to meet him at the restaurant, which confuses me why he's here and knows where I live but I blissfully head outside to meet him anyways. He's in the parking lot walking towards my building and smiles when he sees me. Suddenly there's all these friends of mine surrounding us. I suddenly hear a plan in my head that all of these friends of mine and this match are all going out to a mall together.

      We get to the mall and it's mostly empty. Apparently we're there pretty late but nobody's closing the stores. Most of the mall store-wise is empty too, there's empty stores, and big blocked off stores that say things like "coming soon" and such, but there is a pawn shop store so we all go in there and take a look around. Inside the pawn shop, there's a few people in my life I recognize, including a past crush. My heart sank seeing him, but in a sinking way of "oh geez he's seeing me with another guy, idk how I feel about that." I tell my match about him and tell him to move away and ignore him, and he was successfully ignored. We get up to the register and check out some trinkets that I can't remember now what they were. I'm now realizing my body language with this guy: super duper close. I have one arm around his back and the other against his chest in a "you just saved me, my hero!" kind of pose, and it feels AWESOME. I look around and people notice the attraction between us. The guy behind the counter even winks at us.

      We all then head for a food court, where there's a lot more people and a ton of long rectangular chairs. The match guy and me head for a buffet and grab out food, realizing all of my friends have gone elsewhere to get food. There's an open almost empty section of tables we sit in waiting for the rest of my friends to join us but they never show up. Match guy and I are on our own.

      After this it's more like a montage of us roaming around a mostly empty mall, all smiley and happy and the whole timing in general just slows down. Like I'm completely happy and whole and just enjoying his company. So yeah, before this dream I knew this guy is super awesome, but now that I've had a dream with him and how I feel, I guess I can say that my subconscious likes him too.

      And if I have any more dreams about this guy I'll post em, but I don't want this to be a gossip journal all about this one guy and updates on him and me and all that jazz. I'm just focusing on the dreams if I have any more.

    10. The Beaten

      by , 04-30-2011 at 04:04 AM (Alone With my Mind)
      NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
      This dream is somewhat influenced by the books The Hunger Games and A Wrinkle in Time.

      As the last few of us band together, there are only three thoughts in our mind. Survive. Kill. Run. Everyone is losing the last bit of their wit as these three thoughts are being juggled in our minds. We must survive. Those not part of our group must be killed. Those rebelling within our group must be killed. Those who go insane must be killed. Most importantly, those who are poisoned by The Beaten must be killed. Fast. The Beaten is an airborne poison that targets the weak, curious, and unstable. As soon as it gets into an animal's or a person's bloodstream, it doesn't take much more to spread the poison into those who are strong-willed, solid, and smart. A small bite or scratch turns your eyes blood-red in a second, your mind distorts, leaving most of it in a disturbed mess of insanity. And the poisoned have their skin the strength of leather, bones like steel, adrenaline pumping. We must run.

      I bump into Gloria by accident. She says, her words edged with steel, "What's the matter with you?!" Taken aback by her anger, something she rarely shows, I reply, "Sorry. Try not to lose your temper, The Beaten feeds off of extreme emotion you know." The anger drains from her face. We continue to walk up the stairs, entering the house. Nearly everyone searches around for supplies of something, with no luck, except for some old furniture and the drywall may be used for kindle at the night. I walk back out, the bright sun stinging my eyes, for the house was very dark. Broxtan follows me out, weary and obviously saddened. "I immediately take a few steps back, because if The Beaten catches him, I won't have enough time to run. "What's up?" I ask. "Nothing. It's just that I'm so pissed we're stuck here. Why did we have to be put here?!"

      He sinks his head into his hands. He shudders a bit, possibly because of tears flowing to eyes, but then he looks up. I stare at him, as red floods the whites of his eyes, his mouth twitching into a smirk. Without thinking, I smash my fist into his nose as I duck and run into the yard in front of me. I stop, because I notice I have a few friends running from the side yard to help me. I command the two of them to surround him, but Broxton swipes at one's chest, cutting his shirt, causing him to twirl to the floor. My other friend, Jung, kneels down to help him up, but The Beaten causes the injured boy to convulse, making Jung drop him and run backwards a bit. The deep red that fills Broxtan's eyes fade out a bit, and he whispers, "Push me. Push me down." Confused, I respond with a "Wha-" He repeats, "Push me down. The Beaten will leave after a full body impact." The crimson floods into his eyes again. I swiftly rush him, dodge his punch, and I use the momentum of the dodge to slam both my hands into his shoulders, sending him flying to the ground. "Thank you," he mutters just before his back hits the dirt with a thud.

      The Beaten quickly overtakes the injured boy on the ground, and I scream for Jung to tackle him. He scrambles from behind a tree and smashes his shoulders into the enemy's chest. As the remainder of my group file out of the abandoned house, I hear an announcement. "In the mansion in the mountains, a little memoir of those tributes whose lives you've taken have been placed there. I suggest you check it out, unless your afraid, of I don't know, a trap." Worry flashes through our eyes, much like the redness takes those by the beaten. The dream skips, and I'm walking up a hill toward the covered balcony of the aforementioned mansion. I notice a small jewelry box-type thing with pictures tied to one of it's corners. I flip through some of the pictures, seeing the faces of those who were killed. I quickly leave as the pictures sober me into my hidden sadness, as the trap could be those same pictures, maybe even what lied in the jewelry box contained the poison of The Beaten. I walk downstairs and toward the grassy trails to the bottom of the mountain. I hear footsteps behind me, and a long pause. Possibly to look at the photos. I hear footsteps once more, speedier. They soon break into a run, and I find myself running too. But their running is faster. I trip down the trail, and I get caught from behind. With a knife.

      I respawn shortly before my death, outside the mansion. After I check the photos again, I quickly walk out of the mansion, noticing Jenny pass by me in as I leave. I ignore her, because she isn't a threat and her emotions aren't as provoke-able as most. I thought wrong. Running again, I try to evade her, but end up dying more brutally, by the hands of a rock to the skull. I focus my respawn back in time, to the point right before I entered the mansion. Instead of immediately checking the box, I waited for Jenny to come by, and warned her not to check the box. She ignored me, and checked it anyways. The Beaten got to her again, but this time I was braced. She leaped in front of me, and I countered with a shove and run. I sprinted down the hill as fast as I could, getting underneath the high ledge where the mansion is. I looked back, and she was catching up to me. Two of my friends ran by, and they were already trying to shove her down. But she juked both of them, thankfully the distraction gave me the advantage of running back up the hill. She jumped toward my back, hoping to knock me down, but I turned again, nearly out of breath as I ran right back down the hill. I heard her slow her pace, and so did I. Soon the only footsteps that I heard were mine. This is good news! I thought. Once more, I was wrong. She was looking down on me from the cliff again, unseen by me. Until I looked up, and by then my face was already crushed by the heel of her boot.

      I'm trying to improve my writing BTW. Any good? I think I stretched out the dream a bit, it's much shorter than it seems.

    11. Just another day in Nazi America.

      by , 04-30-2011 at 02:50 AM
      This was probably the most vivid dream I've had in a while, and it was quite strange.

      It started out with me going back in time to sometime like 1917, though political climate was like the 40's, and technology was 80's era. We entered this place in a random Minecrafty mountain. Here we had a TV set up to google maps. Some random people appear and we had no choice but to tell them we were from the future due to the look of the TV. We open up an area that has a bunch of highways and bridges. I then said something like, "I was trying to do something, but I jacked it up."

      I then exit the hole in the mountain and try to hang up a poster that has a swastika and a soldier. It read "Nazis lose war!" In the dream I was doing it for the lulz, since I was in Nazi America. Things then go weird as I fly sideways off the mountain, knocking down a bunch of hanging banners with the classic red and white circle from minecraft trees. These did not have the swastika, but had what appeared to be something like the stairs from the original Mario.

      I then appeared at our local church, people were defying the laws of physics to shake hands. I think I was saying something reasonable, but I do not remember this part much.

      Once again I teleport to another place. This time it was to our schools's cafeteria. There was a semicircle of people with a large, old camera looking device, I among them. With this, we were playing Minecraft. I then probably said something like "I'm from the future," because I remember right after that missing fragment I say "Because I'm wireless!" (Remember, this is like the 40's.) No one cared, so I tried to show a friend of mine that I was from the future by stopping time. He didn't care either. After this, I think we get chewed out by someone, badly. You'll see why I think this later.

      We then were walking down a road to a large white house, our living quarters. A few people look younger (due to the earlier time period), but not many. The reason why I think we were badly chewed out because I spawned a pistol, likely in case we were attacked by the person, who I remembered him as looking like one of our coaches at our school. I believe he was a part of the Nazi regime, which is why no one liked him, and part of the reason I spawned a pistol. I had to spawn the filled clips separately, for whatever reason.

      Here, I see him walking down on the ground next to the compound. Here, it gets a little fuzzy. I think I ignored him and jumped into the nearby ocean. The scene here looked quite nice now that I think about it. The view panned by this lady swinging from a giant electromagnet, probably telling me to go to the man I go to next.

      The dream then panned across the large lake (yes, it was a large lake now that I think about it) to this man next to a limo. I wish I could remember the name, but I do not. It was someone with the last name starting with W. The view stayed there for a while until this man with a green crescent moon as a head got all in my face and said something like "He will do what you want him to do if you see his train." We then appeared in a forest with a train going through it.

      The rest kinda cuts off here, but there was more. I believe I talk to myself about what I did and how the man with the last name starting with a W was the head of the Department of Safety in Nazi America and how he passed a bunch of new laws stopping people from having to do something. Probably stopping people from getting chewed out. I think the dream ends with me back in the church, reflecting on something.

      Overall, this was a pretty memorable dream due to it's awesomeness.
    12. First Lucid (7 Years Old, Dream Chain)

      by , 04-30-2011 at 02:20 AM (Chronicles of Ethos)
      General text non-lucid awake lucid

      I decided to go ahead and put my first lucid dream into my dream journal. I also added the dreams that led up to this lucid. These dreams happened over 3 days when I was 7 years old.

      In the first dream I had, I was standing out on my school's playground. The sky started to turn red. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky. I remember there being a large cloud over us, and I think it was skull shaped. There was a sense dread and impending doom. Everyone was looking up at the sky horrified. (They looked kind of funny staring at the sky with their jaws dropped actually. ) I went back inside the school and I walked up to the library on the 3rd floor. There was another kid there staring out the window with a book. I asked, "Why is the sky red?" He responded dramatically, "The world coming to an end!"

      I woke up shortly after that. I thought this dream was kind of weird and creepy, but I didn't pay much attention to it until the next day.

      In the second dream, it was a continuation from the last dream, but it took place on the day after the sky turned red. The sky was still red this day with the large cloud in the sky. I started my dream in front of my school. I didn't see anyone around the school or on the playground, so I went inside thinking that I was late. I entered a hallway, but it was dark, empty, and a mess inside. There was still no one in sight, no noise, and no sign of life. Desks and chairs were knocked over in the hallway, there was rubble on the floor, the wall was half destroyed, and the floor was cracked. At this point I was really starting to feal fear because I felt like the last guy in the world, I was scared of whatever destroyed everything, and I remembered the kid from the last dream saying that the world was coming to an end. Despite my fear, I continued down the hallway to find my classroom.

      My dream ended and I woke up right before I would have entered my classroom. This dream felt more realistic than the last one and it was scarier for me. I even watched the sky half of the day wondering if it would turn red.

      The third and final dream continued right about where the last one left off. It started with me sitting in the dark room at my desk. There was still no living thing in sight. I again started to wonder where everyone was for a few seconds. As I was thinking about this, the lights flashed on and all my classmates and my teacher seemed to flash into view with the light. They just walked around the room and worked on a project as if they had been there the whole time. I got up from my desk and asked my teacher, "Where did everyone go?" Everyone just turned and glared at me with angry expressions on there face. As they focused on me, their eyes started to glow red. In my mind all I could think was they wanted to chase me and kill me. And of course, they started to chase me out the door.

      I ran back out into the hallway and then out to the playground. As I ran up the hill on the playground, I stared up at the sky and noticed it was still red and had the large cloud. I remembered this from the past 2 dreams and said to myself, "Wait! I'm dreaming!" I stopped at the top of the hill and turned to face the mob. I wanted to wake myself up before the mob could get to the top of the hill. Without giving it much thought, I started screaming, "Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" As I said this, pictured my real body hidden behind the red sky until I could feel it. I then tried to kick my legs and lift my arms. This required a lot of effort though. As I tried to lift my arms and legs, it felt like someone was pulling them back down. When the mob was about half way up the hill, the dream faded away.


      My eyes opened and I was punching and kicking the air with ease. I was sweating and my heart was racing, but I knew I was now sitting safely in bed. I soon got really excited after that because I never had a dream where I knew I was dreaming before. As I started to get more dreams like this, I called them "super dreams" because it felt like a different side of me took over and played as a super hero. They were mostly triggered by nightmares, and this new part of me was like a self defense mechanism against nightmares. It wasn't until I was 13 that I learned there was a name for these dreams and they didn't have to be related to nightmares.

      My Thoughts on these Dreams

      Aside from the apocalypse aspect of it, that was awesome! A couple "super dreams" later, and I learned that I didn't have to run from nightmares. I could fight them! Always felt awesome. This is one of my favorite dream chains even though it was a continuous nightmare.

      I think the reason why whenever I try to wake myself up and something pulls me down is because of sleep paralysis. Sleep paralysis isn't my best friend when trying to get away from a mob.

    13. UFO Lands/8 foot tall beings knocks on door...

      by , 04-30-2011 at 01:22 AM
      The dream is on the night of April 28th,2011

      I happen to look out the window and i see a triangular UFO craft in the sky... I think in my head okay that would be creepy if it landed. Soon my thought came true and the UFO landed just down my driveway as i look out the window with amazement and shock all my emotions are running throw my head right now. As I'm watching this triangular UFO land i point at it! one of the biggest mistakes ever, for some reason when i pointed out to the craft a green lazer shoots outa my left pointer finger toward the craft. It soon dawned on me either the aliens are giving me special powers or this aint real, but my mind couldn't make a decision cuz it felt so real. I freak out and i go running and go to grab my sister. "OMG your not going to believe this theirs a UFO that landed on our driveway". Next thing i know is she starts freaking out and we both go running toward the window and we see an 8 foot tall all blacked out shadow figure coming to the door. (Real life i would call that "The Unknown"). The being knocks on the front door, and i freak and go hide somewhere in my house , after that it takes off and disappears. Later on in the dream my main goal was too report what had happen either online or to the police but then i soon wake up with excitement because it was such a detailed dream. Sadly this dream was just detail it was not lucid what so ever but i think this is one more step to getting lucid!
