    1. 6/24-25/10 - Shooting Stars

      by , 06-27-2010 at 08:41 PM (Hidden's Dream Journal)
      I actually don't remember the non lucid part of this dream, but here's what I wrote down...

      We were refugees in a western city/town. We had horses, and my friend's horse almost died, but she fed it some essential equipment instead of letting it. Apparently we destroyed buildings...

      We went to a little gazebo.
      As a bunch of other people came in, I floated up and flew out the window. I came to a roof where there were tons of shooting stars. A bunch of couples were sitting on the roof either kissing or watching the stars. One of the guys (a rather ugly guy) got down from the roof. I followed him, but he got away. I thought about going to Shibuya again, but decided that I would do this first. A bunch of horses trotted by. I hid behind a tree to avoid getting trampled.
    2. Shibuya!

      by , 06-27-2010 at 08:31 PM (Hidden's Dream Journal)
      I have no clue what day this dream happened, but...

      I was walking down a hall when I did a random RC and became lucid. The dream was surprisingly clear. I remember thinking that it was like I was wearing contacts. I came to a room with a window and a closet. I decided that I should go to Shibuya, so I pictured it and opened the closet door. I was a bit shocked when it worked, although all the buildings were made of wood.

      I went through the door and ended up at an ice cream stand, where I stole a cup of vanilla and mint chocolate chip ice cream. The police hunted me down. There was one guy I was particularly scared of. I reminded myself that since this was a dream I could kick ass, but I kept freaking out and ran back through the door.

      I flew out the window and ended up at a stadium filled with people where they were holding my trial. I flew over the stadium, but then I started getting heavier and fell. They caught me, put me in a chair in solitary confinement, and gave me an experimental drug that was supposed to cure me of my disobedience. I felt weird,
      then I woke up.

    3. Zombies, skins, video games and rc helicopters. In a shopping mall.

      by , 06-27-2010 at 07:36 PM
      I don't remember the beginning of this dream - its probably the longest one I've had for a while. What I do remember though, are small fragments. It started while I was playing a video game. I thought that this game was rubish because I was driving a car in a city, and the road was made of sqares that moved down when I drove on them, so i kept crashing. After this, I remember watching a war in the city between two robot armies and then they jioned together to fight some other robots that appeared. The next thing I rememeber is being in a building with two or three people in a different city. The city was infested with zombies but i dont remember what we had to do in the building. Anyway I sent a scout helicopter (a mini rc one) to do something (cant remember what) but then a monster/zombie saw it and soon there were loads coming towards the building. I wasn't scared because I knew that we had enough machine guns to stop them. After that I remember going into a zombie infested shopping centre/mall, but the zombies didnt attack if we didnt disturb them. I went into a shop that sold antiques with lots of people inside, and met one of the twins from skins (I dont know which one). She said she lost her sister and naomi so I said i'd help her because it was better than just staying in the shop bored. Then someone shot their gun (i think it was me) and the zombies started to run towards the shop. I pulled down the meshes (things they pull down when they close the shop) but there was a gap where there was no mesh to pull down (the meshes were weird because they wernt flat, they were shaped like tall hill-like things, that are hard to explain). Everyone in the shop started shooting them so they didnt get in. After that we left the mall, then the next thing i remember is seeing lots of zombies escaping the mall, with lots of soldiers shooting them. I tries to help by shooting, but my pen (that was a gun in the dream) didnt workbecause it was a ball-point pen and the soldiers were angry at me because they thought i was have shot the because i was behind them and the zombies were directly in front of them. After that I remember being in an allyway with the twin from skins and then a bunch of bikers were there but I dont remember the rest. I then remember running out of a garden because a REALLY fat zombie (she was shaped like a ball) was chasig after us and was getting even more angry becuase we were using her trampoline to jump over the fence, and she didn't like that (or she didnt like us touching the netting around it). I then remember going back into the fat zombies house, and she had lost weight, and turned to normal. I then said sorry to her for the trampoline thing. I became lucid here and walked around her house, rubbing my hands trying to stay lucid. After that I came out of lucidity and did something else that I can't remember but it might have been something I wrote already because i'm not even sure if its in the right order :S.

    4. 06/27/10

      by , 06-27-2010 at 05:56 PM (Dreamscapes)
      I tried salvia for the first time yesterday and had some amazing experiences. I smoked a bowl three times in 20 minutes with my friend and left this dimension. I did it again a couple hours later. I had one super vivid dream that I can remember and a lot of others that were just patches.

      Drug party:

      I started out playing super smash brothers on the wii. I was doing really bad at first because I could not figure out which way to hold the controller. I was my favorite character kirby. I tied for second place the first game. We played again and this time I was kicking their ass hardcore. I told them I finally remembered how to play. We went into their closet and their was all these different kinds of drugs. Most of them were X and they would make you super social. My friend Alex bought him and I a bag full of them and I just started eating a shitload. As we were going down the stairs he told me to only eat 3 and eat them with him now. I panicked a little in my head, but just went with it and ate three more (I probably ate like 10)
      We went down to a massive party and sat down at a large table. On the left there was a big group of my clubbing friends and on the right a big group of my london friends. I was really rolling and knocked over a table and farted. I started making fun of Alex and blaming it on him (we used to do that all the time, but without actually farting) It started to smell really bad so I left the table and went to go find a bathroom.
      I really wanted to change into a nicer shirt and went upstairs to change. As I went upstairs I noticed that it was filled with girls and guys with almost no clothes on. I randomly went into a room and asked a girl if she was down to get dirty. Everyone was watching me and I noticed the girl was someone that I knew. We started talking and asking how we were and I ended up leaving the room. I went into another room where a girl thought I was her boyfriend and started making out with me. We were making out on the bed when I saw her actual boyfriend see this and get pissed off. He stormed out of the room and I felt bad and told the girl I would be right back.
      I went to go find the boyfriend and found him sitting on a computer chair. He started charging up to me and said he should kick my ass. I told him it was a simple mistake and that he should go to her. He forgives me and goes to her. I walk over to the bathroom and take my shirt off and put on a striped black and white shirt with a hat. I don't like the hat and end up taking it off and leaving the bathroom. Alex is there and says we should go to school.
      I leave the party and we are on a bus. I feel so lazy and sluggish and Alex says its because I am coming down on the X. This girl next to me pulls out a big piece of the gum I had earlier and says I can have a bite. I hesitate, but take the gum and feel a lot better.
      We get to the school and I go to class. There is a big group project that we have to do, but the teacher says if we can find a small group of friends he would give us extra credit and the project would be much easier. I start looking around for people to join the project. I go to my friend Micheal's class and try to ask him. He tells me to be quite because he is in the middle of a lecture. I leave to the indoor basketball court and start looking for people there. I have a hard time finding people as the dream finally ends.

    5. Dannon's Journal of dreaming.

      by , 06-27-2010 at 05:53 PM
      This is a dream from last year:
      Flying Cats
      I am by a small tree in a meadow near the edge. I am sitting under the tree trying to figure out a rubik's cube but just when I am about to solve it all the colors are all messed up again. I notice a shadow fall on me so I turn around and look into the tree. There is an owl sitting on the branch looking at me. Then it swoops out of the tree and turns into half-cat in midair. As it lands it turns into all cat. The cat comes up and rubs against my legs and I pet it. It is purring. Then another owl jumps out of the tree and turns into a cat and comes over. Pretty soon there are about five owls jumping out of the tree turning into cats and jumping back, turning into owls and landing back in the tree. They keep doing this. As they land they roll around on their backs like happy cats when they get high on catnip. They are like little owl/cat griffins.

      Another dream from last year:

      The Story Time Cafe Presents: A Night In the Faerie Kingdom
      I am with Mieko one late full moon night in a park. I give her one of my magic potions. We share it actually. It is Datura and Mushroom tea I want to show her a little bit of my world, you know? Because she has never known anything out of the ordinary.

      We walk around and we walk up to a large oak tree. There is a wooden door in the side of the oak tree with a brass knocker on it and a doornob and wrought iron hinges. "Watch this!" I say and I knock on the door. An old elf lady answers the door. She is about four feet tall and wearing a shawl.
      "Come in, come in!" She says. Mieko seems apprehensive so I smile at her as if to say "It's alright, come on." And we walk in down a spiral staircase. The old lady is very happy to have us there. The stairway opens into a large living room/kitchen. It is dimly lit. She introduces us to her husband who is an old hippie elf. He looks like he had a hard life smoking pot so he decided to retire, relax and smoke pot, you know the kind? He smiles at us but seems too stoned to talk.
      The wife offers us some cookies (elves make the best cookies) but I politely decline and I give Mieko a look as if to say "don't eat food from this world if you want to come back." The wife says that the cookies used to turn out better when they used wood to burn in the oven, but the park rangers made them switch to gas. I think that is funny that 1. the park rangers even know you guys are here, and 2. They could make you change from wood to gas.
      Together the husband and wife lead us back to the staircase which goes deeper into the ground. I can see that there is a whole world down there! Or a whole underground city village full of little houses like this. The husband says "Won't you go deeper?" I want to go but Mieko wants to go home and fold laundry.
      So we don't go. We climb back up the stairs and out the tree trunk and there we are next to the old oak tree again. The breeze blows the branch aside and a beam of moonlight lands on me and when it does, I see that really I am all alone burying a toad under the tree! It is kind of like in the first pirates of the Caribbean movie when the moon shines on the bad pirates you see who they really are: skeletons. But in this case I was really alone burying a toad, not with Mieko! I felt confused like I was having a Datura flashback.

      Anyway, that lasts for only a second and Mieko and I go into town to a place called "The Story Time Cafe". This is a place parents can bring their children at night with their sleeping bags and pillows and leave them there while the employees read the kids stories all night so the parents can go out. All the parents are going to this concert so we go also.

      At the concert I wander away from Mieko and run into the old hippie elf! He has some more hippie elf friends with them and they ask me to be in their band! They like the way I play music. I say "Well, I'll have to think about it. I don't think I can make it down underground for practice that often."
      "That's OK!" said the hippie elf. "We can come up here to practice, but we will have to play shows underground." "Alright!" I say.

      I run into Mieko again and I tell her about it but she says that I won't have time to be in a band because I have to mow the lawn everyday.

      Then I am on the stage at the Story Time Cafe telling this to the kids. It was all a story I was telling! I am sitting up in a sleeping bag on stage.

      THE BUZZING OF THE BEES TANTRA

      I am walking down a path in the woods with some people. I am excited and want to show them something even though I don't know what it is. Then it is just me and this girl I know walking down the path and hopping over fallen trees in the path. We arrive at this old shack or cabin. It is old and barely standing.

      I go inside, now it is just me and I'm naked. I go inside the cabin and the whole inside is one giant bee hive. All the walls are beehive. There is sun shining through the cracks in the slats illuminating lots of honey. The honey is dripping down the walls and from the ceiling I am eating it up! I am licking it and scooping it with my hands like a Pooh Bear. There are big happy honey bees flying in and out of the cabin.

      Presently the buzzing gets real loud. A loud droning coming from everywhere. My body starts buzzing as if my atoms are turning into energy (too much sugar?). I am vibrating blissfully. It is quite a sexy feeling. I am getting turned on. And then I hear the sound of drums. There is a drum circle somewhere nearby.

      I use my Xray vision to look through the walls and see that there are a bunch of tribal people wearing bee masks surrounding the hive and playing drums. I continue eating honey amongst the loud drone of bees and the primal beat of the drums.

      Made in the Shade

      I am in a hot city with Spanish moss hanging from the trees. It is somewhere in the South. I am driving a car and I am wondering how the heck I got all the way over here. It is dusk and there is a lot of bars and music and nightlife.
      Now I am walking by a river that goes through the city that is kind of underground, but open at the ceiling so I can still see the sky but there are pedestrian bridges going over the river. There are a lot of restaurants and bars outside so I don't know if I'm inside or outside. And drunk people celebrating joyfully. I can't tell if I'm in San Antonio or New Orleans.
      I go around the corner and there is an old black blues guitarist sitting on a stool smiling at me. He has a harmonica in a harness around his neck, a tambourine under one foot and a rattle sticking out of his shoe. He has a hat on and transparent sunglasses. He looks kind of like Jiminy cricket.
      He says to me: "Looks like you got it made in the shade!"
      Me: "Made in the shade?"
      Him: "And having fun in the sun>"
      Me: "Well, I feel like I'm too rattled to shake and too stoned to roll."
      Him: "Well I'm gonna give you a piece of advice, but I'm gonna let it out slow and lay it on you easy, so you can dig it. You got it made in the shade but you don't know it. You gotta be like rubber man."
      Me: "Rubber band?"
      Him: "You can be like a rubber band if that's your thing but don't stretch yourself too thin. Then you can bounce back."
      The whole time he is smiling so much and looking at me over his sunglasses that it is contagious and I start feeling real good.
      Him: "You see, everyone's got their dues they have to pay and you always pay yours on time, so I came here to spread a little sunshine for you so you can see your way."
      He kind of sings this last line while playing his guitar and then he goes into playing "I Feel Good" by James Brown. And he is stomping on that tambourine and stomping his other foot with the rattle and it is some good music! Then he starts blowing on that harmonica.
      Him (singing): "You're one of us now, so rise up singing. Spread your wings and fly!"
      Later Dan Akroyd and Bill Murray jump out from behind a wall and they are cops. "Freeze!" Yells Bill Murray and Dan Akroyd handcuffs me.
      "Hey! Aren't you Bill Murray?" I say. "Shhhh. Don't tell anyone" he replies and then he lets me go. It seems like they were only testing me to see if I would recognize them. We're all good friends and laughing.
      I woke up this morning feeling all good and singing "I Feel Good" all day as I drove for 8 hours. I just got back home and now I write this down.

    8. Leading Lady in a musical production

      by , 06-27-2010 at 05:24 PM
      I dreamed I was asked to be the leading lady of a Canadian production of TLM (The Little Mermaid) since the director wanted someone to be perfect for the role and the casting director was in my neighborhood and heard me singing Ariel's song "Part of Your World", but I wasn't even in my part anymore but 2 streets over delivering catologoues-so he was like Prince Eric trying to find me in the town. But he did find me. But I was worried about a couple of things:
      1) being kidnapped (they had hired body guards)
      2) what would people think of a leading lady coming out of the blue from nowhere?

      When I went to my first practice the people playing the mer-sisters, maids and princesses (all the same people) were jealous saying that since I didn't audition I shouldn't have gotten the part. So I showed them by singing "Part of Your World", then they realized that the casting person was correct.

      I was so astonished about the person was going to play Prince Eric in my dream was a boy I grew up with that I fainted. Because when I fainted when there was commotion around me, some tried to kidnapped me and locked me in a closet where I came too (sp?) and people were looking for me but I heard the boy who I grew up with voice so I shouted "Limmer" his dog's name so he could find me.


      So I could have some experience being in a rowboat with "Prince Eric" he and I went to a nearby pond and practice (well he practiced I should say since in that scene Ariel can't 'talk").

      Somehow my body guards were knocked out and both he (boy I grew up with, playing Prince Eric) and I were kidnapped

      Finally, a lucid dream!

      Started off with what seemed to be a nightmare, and was a tad shorter than I would have liked, but it ended quite interestingly enough .

      Warning: dream ended up being pretty graphic, so be warned.

      Started out with a few of my buddies sitting around talking about stuff that did not make any sense what-so-ever. We were all sitting in what looked like a run down hotel, door was wide open, as well as the windows. The windows reveals what looked like stairs going from the bottom of the hotel to the top, resembling metal stairs seen in NYC apartment buildings as a fire-escape. All of a sudden people break into the hotel, drawing automatic pistols, killing two of my friends. First thought was to run, and run as fast as I could. The remaining friend followed me out the door and we parted ways in separate directions.

      I first ran through the open door, and jumped off the balcony onto a close rooftop of another building nearby. The killers kept close tail of me, following my lead off the balcony onto the roof. I continued off the edge of the roof, and hopped down on to the ground. Killers, still following my lead, closing in on me. When I hit the ground, I feel as though I am paralyzed, unable to move. I was laying next to a small children's pool it looked like. Several of the killers go to raise their automatic weapons to my face and are about to pull the trigger. The friend I parted ways earlier at the beginning of the chase all of a sudden grabbed one of the killers behind the neck in a choke-hold and looked at me and said "intense dream so far eh?"

      I looked at a nearby sign by the pool I was laying next to and it proceeded to change every time I looked at it. I was dreaming! Now that I was awake I took a hold of the other killer's hand and ripped off his arm that had the gun in it. I then proceeded to transform painfully into a large timber wolf, as I do with nearly every LD. For some reason when I transformed in this dream, it hurt really bad. Usually the transformation in my dreams go by quite smoothly with little pain, however this was a different story. I felt my face painfully cracking and contorting outwards until it finally resembled a snout. Fur spread all over my body, and a feeling of intense goose-bumps covered my skin. My tail bone cracked and contorted as well. Sharp teeth sliced their way through my gums, at first with pain that mimicked shattering my teeth. Paws formed as each foot elongated, and my hands elongated and turned into paws as well.

      After I was done changing, I looked at the man who stood under the control of my friend in form of a head lock. I sprinted and tackled the man by pouncing on to his chest. My friend, still holding the man down looked to me as though he knew what was about to happen. I decided to go ahead and finish off this nightmare with a bit of gore of my own, haha. Anyways, so I open my jaws up, and clench the killer's head in between my jaws. I proceeded to clench down as hard as I could onto the man's skull. After a few seconds, the man's skull gave in to the pressure, and I felt the cracking and breaking of it in between my jaws. That was then followed by warm blood filling up my mouth, and dripping down my throat. In a weird way, it actually sorta tasted good.


      My friend then decided to follow my lead, and he ended up changing into a wolf after letting go of the killer's head who was now unrecognizable as a human being. Regarding the other killer with one arm, I don't know where he went. After that my lucidity sort of drifted off, and I was being controlled by my dreams once again. The rest of the dream involved me and my friend running off into the woods as wolves, then I suddenly woke up!

    10. Childhood Nightmare

      by , 06-27-2010 at 04:58 PM
      This dream happened when I was a very young child and twice: in one nightmare I was walking home with my Mom from the GO train (train that goes into Toronto in in Ontario, Canada ) station ( I didn't see the train or the station it self I just know that what we were heading from ) over top of the highway "bridge" and its was peaceful until a car with headlights on comes onto the sidewalk (I mean literally) and starts chasing mom and me on the sidewalk (thats when I woke up)

      in the second dream same thing happened but we were closer to home this time on the 3rd main street in my town.

      it was very vivid that I can remember like it was yesterday

    11. Mall in my mind

      by , 06-27-2010 at 04:41 PM
      DJ 8 (27 June 2010) 0100

      Extremely long dream - do figure with Donna again.

      I’m with Donna at a super large mall. Too large to describe. I have never been to Mall of America, but this thing I was in would dwarf that I believe.

      We are forced to take rented trams that operate like segues for two, and we drive them (no one helps). Donna takes the controls in front and I hold onto her and help steer by leaning. We are weaving traffic in the mall and hit a cop car/tram. He laughs it off. Isn’t the first time he’s seen newbies not know how to operate a tram.

      All we’re trying to do is find a store to return a movie. Neither one of us has been here before, yet she swears that she knows where this store is in the mall. Neither one of us has a clue.

      So we go on and eventually broadside another cop. This one’s pissed at us and starts giving us the third degree. His isn’t just a tram, but a full mall car. Black and white (kind of looks like a skunk on wheels), has lights on top, but the lettering doesn’t say “POLICE”. It starts out with a “P” but the other letters and symbols don’t resemble anything that means police. So, I argue on a technicality that he can’t arrest is for hitting a cop car, because his car Isn’t specifically labeled as a cop car, and point out his lettering. A few bystanders, some rather important, excitedly agree with us, and he’s forced to let us go. The rest of the dream, he’s chasing us in revenge.

      We ditch the tram, and have to climb rickety shelving to reach the second floor. Donna has little problem traversing the shelving being lighter than myself. (I’m not large – but she’s fairly petite). She goes on, and I’m left behind trying to make my way up and through the shelving, At one point I am stuck and have to back out. There are tons of people around sitting on the shelving and I notice that some of it is starting to slip out of there holders (this is where the people sit, so they are going to fall about thirty feet down to the next floor).

      I yell at then to get off the shelving, to which I’m desperately clinging to, and they’re looking at me like I’m from another planet, but they get off. Once they’re off, I’m terrified because I know how high up I am and now I’m trying to make my way back to where I started. The shelving is starting to slip off its brackets. I look down and notice I’m, only about a foot off the floor, and realize how stupid I must have sounded. Embarrassed, I get to the second floor and search for Donna.

      I eventually find her in the store watching a movie, so a cuddle up next to her and finish watching. She’s very cold toward me because of how late I arrived, and didn’t care to hear about my adventures I getting there.

      At some point at the end of the show/movie we’re on the floor cuddled up and she’s playfully rolling up the hideaway bed with her foot as I’m somehow caught under it. I try to stop her from using her hands to roll it, but she wasn’t using her hands. She was using a foot. I felt like I was being trapped, but not harmed in any way. We both laughed about it after wards.

      Later we’re sleeping on a rather large bed (king size I suppose) with her two sons (from a previous marriage). We’re all trying to find room to do this and decide to stay in opposing corners of the bed. Then we start invading each others territory – the bed is shrinking. It was not a good situation, nor a very happy one. (This didn’t correlate with any other part of the dream)

      I remember running onto a miniature golf park, but with a sprinkler system. Somehow the first time I avoid getting wet. But the second time, when we’re trying to escape the mall (I’m not sure where that came in) I run unto the golf park (it’s huge – and black) I start tripping the sprinklers like little pop-up land mines. They start poking up through the ground wherever I am and start getting soaked. I fell down at one point and damn near had a sprinkler catch me in the ass – not pleasant. Once I get to a safe spot an old college friend (Ranger – nickname) came up to me and we started laughing about the whole golf scenario.

      While we are exiting the mall, when we get through the shelving between floors on the way down, there was this water park like atmosphere. I took a raft from the edge and threw it out into the water. I was pissed off that nobody would believe our story in the mall. Some lady had wanted to use the raft (I didn’t realize this at first). She didn’t take any offense to it – just waited for it come back.

      In the dream, as I was escaping to get out of the mall there were these goofy stairs that had rotating cylinders on all the steps sometimes turning in one direction (down the strairs, or up the stairs, and sometimes in opposite directions so you didn’t know what step to put your foot on. I just jumped over the whole damn stairway (there were only 4 or 5 steps). I guess I should have realized I was dreaming at this point.

      Hell it never occurred to me to become aware during any part of this dream, and it was a rather long one with all sorts of cues. I feel like an idiot not being aware, but glad I was able to remember so much of it.

      Anyone want to throw out why I'm suddenly dreaming so much with my ex-wife in the picture. I mean come on 6 out of 8. I was kind of kidding with the whole use Donna as a dream sign thing, but now that I'm keeping track of my dreams I'm beginning to wonder.

    12. Housing project

      by , 06-27-2010 at 04:36 PM
      (25 June 2010)
      I remember nothing!!!!

      DJ 7 (26 June 2010) Kind of a longish dream, more detail.

      Housing project - Donna

      Vivid dream about being in a subdivision that is newly being developed. Our house finished; although, the landscaping is simple dirt. There’s an oscillating sprinkler in the yard that has an unusual pattern is watering the grass. It bothers me, but at the same time I remember being mesmerized by it waiting for the pattern to repeat itself. I watch it for about 4 cycles then continue the conversation with our neighbors.

      The landscape to our house has a very steep incline, and a rather long one too, with loose dirt. Donna asks that I come in and help her with the furniture. So, I bound up the landscape without any trouble whatsoever. This shouldn’t be for physical gravitation going up the slope should have made it extremely difficult. I gave it a passing thought in my dream as I’m trying to figure what Donna wanted done with the furniture.

      I get in the house, and the furniture is in a pieces on the floor. It’s the put together type of furniture, but normal press-board check ass stuff. It’s real hardwood. But, why it would have to be assembled is troubling.

      I start looking at the pieces and think how the project is going to be daunting because of the weight of real wood and the number of pieces. I look at Donna, I look at the instruction and then back to what should have been the pieces. They are now assembled into a rather elaborate china hutch, but the molding/trim to the base of the cabinet is missing and looks to need a rather difficult miter cut.

      I look at the pieces that they provide for base and realize there is now extra for mistake. So I look at he instructions to see what lengths and angles they recommend and then start to go set up a miter saw, but as I look down, the pieces are now cut.

      At no point in this dream did I say, “Hey stupid, you’re dreaming”. I wasn’t even aware, like in the previous dreams, other than the going up the landscape thingy, but I was in hurry to get somewhere, so paid it no attention.

      That was a frustrating dream. Vivid – but frustrating, because it now appears that there were so many opportunities to at least sense awareness. Somebody please help me……

      Badass (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was too awake to get back to sleep when I tried to WILD earlier, but I fell asleep eventually (I just don't remember when) and had a DILD. The one's awesome.

      I was in some sort of class. It had just ended and everybody was leaving, but I was really slow at putting my stuff in my bag and got locked in. I wondered how else I could get out of there and became lucid. I walked up to a big globe of the Earth, and spun it round looking for a place to go. I had the overwhelming urge to go to the centre of the Earth. so I located the large hadron collider in Switzerland- for some reason it was labelled on the globe. I then blanked out the rest of the classroom and concentrated on the globe, imagining I was looking at the Earth from space. I then "fell" all the way down to Switzerland, into a hole in the ground which was the collider. I'm not sure why I reckoned this was the best point of entry to the Earth's core!
      The entrance looked something like this, going vertically downwards.



      I shot down the hole head first, and I was quickly at the bottom of the artificial shaft. I broke through the rock at the bottom and was immediately falling through the mantle. I wasn't swimming through magma, there was a passageway continually opening up in front of me, allowing me to descend without... melting or something! I saw the wall of the core up ahead of me. It was solid metal, but luckily the passage continued right through it. Finally I got to the centre. Right at the centre of the Earth was simply a space. It was a spherical room with a brown inner wall, about 3m in diameter. It was chaotic in there. There were loud noises coming from all around me, it was like being in the loudest part of a steelworks. There was the roar of furnaces, and the clank and scrape of metal banging away constantly. It was also hot as hell. I decided to keep going downwards- not like that means anything now, but I continued in the direction I had been going. I aimed to come out at the South Pole and attempt the basic task of the month, build a snowman. (North would have been better, then I could try the advanced as well)

      When I emerged above the ground, I saw not snow, but a temperate, semi-tropical climate. I was on the edge of a city, apparently nowhere near Antarctica. I saw two girls I know, and asked them where I was. They wouldn't give me a straight answer, so we started walking into town a bit. The city was full of skyscrapers and had busy roads. Whilst walking down a hill, I jumped up on a wall, then dropped down from rooftop to rooftop as the road went down. We came to a car park outside a white building. There was another car park beside it, with lots of limosines in it. There was also a big, long, gray capsule, which looked like it could be a fully-sealed limosine car wash. One of the girls explained that it was a robotic chamber, into which old cars were placed, and repaired. Apparently the capsule would fill with a special gas which repaired machinery. I took a running leap and landed on the most heavily guarded area of the car park, right beside the machine. An alarm went off, and security guards started advancing on me. My friend Pete was suddenly by my side, carrying a suitcase. "We've got to get out of here!" he said. Just to rock the boat a bit more, I went inside the machine through one of the sides, which had been left open. Pete followed. The door slammed shut with a "zzzip" noise, and vacuum sealed itself with a hiss. All of a sudden it started to move. We had been hitched up to a big rig and were being towed along a busy street at high speed. Samuel L. Jackson was driving.
      I fucking love that man. However, he was not friendly in this scenario! I somehow knew that he was taking us to his boss, but also wanted us dead. Gas started hissing out of vents along the floor of the machine. I tried to bash open the door as I had done a large window in a previous dream, and gave it a whack with my right elbow. Nothing happened. I took it up a notch and used my shoulder. The door opened a tiny crack, but it was immediately sucked closed, as there was a vacuum inside. By now Pete was struggling for air... bloody chain smoker! I though about burning my way out, and held out both my hands as balls of fire formed above them. I couldnt get them to be at all intense, so I decided that was a waste of time. Time for another tactic. I took a step back, concentrated on my right hand, and blasted a concussive force out of my palm which blew the door off. The gas was sucked outside and fresh air came in.

      The big rig skidded to a halt and Samuel L. Jackson got out. By now me and Pete had entered a juice bar on the other side of the street. I ordered an "orange one". But as I was about to lift it, the huge hand of Samuel L. Jackson came out of nowhere. He lifted it to his lips and drained it in one gulp. This was a gigantic version of the man himself. He was about 10 feet tall, and built like a brick shithouse. He was wearing the same suit and had the same hairstyle as he had in "Pulp Fiction."



      He looked past me to Pete, who was on my left at the bar. "What's in the case, man?" He asked threateningly.
      "Red-hot heroin," replied Pete without a moment's hesitation.
      "Mothafucka." Said SLJ in a conclusive manner. We got off our seats and ran outside, past Bruce Willis, as the character of John McLane from "Die Hard". He was advancing on SLJ. There were now many more people in the street, following John McLane. Just about every movie badass you could think of was there to back us up. The ones I remember are Riddick (Vin Diesel), Blade (Wesley Snipes), Chev Chelios (Jason Statham), and Rambo (Sylvester Stallone). There were plenty more who I can't remember. Nicolas Cage was there, as a character I didn't recognise, looking distinctly less badass than the rest of them.
      I think I must have become semi-lucid here, because I ran away rather than watch this ultimate showdown (of ultimate destiny lol). I ended up at a party, and had a romantic evening with a girl my brain invented for me!

      Generations (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Noted this badboy down when I woke up in the middle of the night. I probably would've forgotten it otherwise.

      I was walking around a mansion, which my family apparently owned. We had a kind of underground basement/crypt which was very ornate- full of white marble. However it had fallen into disrepair, and somebody had broken in and ransacked the place. The corpse of my grandmother (not my real granny) was left out in the middle of the floor, and the small above-ground windows near the roof of the crypt were broken. There was a load of rubbish covering the body, including a set of roller-blades, which I wanted to try out but was afraid to go near.



      I was working in an office building nearby, I think for the government or something. I had recieved intelligence that "The Master" (from Doctor Who) was in the building, plotting something evil. I knew he must be in disguise as one of my co-workers. I had a suspicion that his plan involved ressurecting someone from the crypt to be his slave, or trying to start a war. Either way, I knew (somehow) that he had a time limit. He would have to do it by the end of the working day, or not do it at all. It was nearly time to go home, and people were talking about leaving. I tried my best to stall people from leaving by talking to them and spraying sluper glue around all the exits from some sort of spray can. (very useful!) I then got talking to a girl in the kitchen. She showed me how to make a pair of rings to be worn on the two little fingers.
      I should have become lucid here because my hands looked retarded as hell, but I thought nothing of it. She made herself a pair as well. Once she put them on, she turned into The Master, and started laughing maniacally. Then she ran off.



      I went into the "Intel Room", which was dark and full of fancy computers. A guy working at a terminal informed me that there was an indication that nuclear war between the USA and China was close. Apparently a Chinese nuclear submarine was parked right outside our building and was shining lights inside in a suspicious manner. This was enough for the USA to retailate by doing the exact same thing. (Apparently this office I was in was US government) There were doomsday alarms going off. They sounded like a standard alarm, but a woman running past screamed, "It's the doomsday alarm, we're doomed!"

      The guy at the computer terminal had an idea. He would contact the people on the submarine outside to see what their intentions were. I looked down on the submarine outside while he tried to get through. He was asking for a specific man, who he thought might be on board. I asked him how he knew this guy would be there, but he didn't answer. A while later the man he was looking for came on, and they had a short exchange in Chinese. It turned out that the submarine was merely a tourist attraction, and nothing to worry about.

      I went home, pleased that nothing had gone wrong. When I arrived back at the mansion, something was clearly amiss. There was silence in the house, apart from one woman walking slowly around the downstairs. I "recognised" her as my Aunt, whose name began with M, but I can't remember it now. The Master had brought her back from the dead and was now trying to take control of her. Luckily, she was too strong for him, and he wasn't able to make her his slave.

      After this, I never heard of The Master again, and me and my family got to work repairing the crypt. The corpse of my grandmother was taken out, then lowered through the roof into the right place. The windows magically repaired themselves in front of my eyes.

      Wand Battle (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was walking around a room in a tower block with a load of the characters from Harry Potter. Turned out I was a wizard too. Snape was walking around looking very smug- I can only assume that it was because of his new breast implants. There was another Hogwarts teacher creeping about who looked pure evil. I must have just invented him, because he's not in the real HP. He was very short, with a hunchback, a pale face with big yellow eyes, and sharp teeth. He wore an elaborate robe and lots of jewellery. He started telling me off for my earring, and to fool him, I pretended to be just scratching my face with it, rather than putting it in my ear. As he turned away, I booted him in the ass.

      This turned me lucid for some reason! It was night outside, and out of the clouds came Draco Malfoy and a bunch of death eaters. They were on broomsticks, and flew around outside the largest window making threatening gestures. Everybody inside was scared. I stood up on a desk beside the window. "Never fear!" I said. "This is a dream! And I'm a fucking wizard!" I turned sideways to the window, and elbowed it with my right arm. It shattered, and glass blasted outwards. I got out my wand, and realised I didn't know any spells. I decided to make up my own. I pointed it at a death eater and shouted "Boom Headshot!" His head exploded and he plummeted from the sky. I used the "boom headshot" spell on about five more, but it felt a bit like overkill; too easy. I jumped out of the window (which took some psyching up) and immediately started to fall. I concentrated on slowing my descent until I stopped about 20m below the window. There were still death eaters above me swooping about on broomsticks. This gave me an idea. I put my wand between my legs, and it extended to form a broomstick. I zoomed back up to the window's height to resume the battle. Unfortunately when I got there the scene had completely changed. Everyone had gone, and the window wasn't broken. I could see into several rooms, where people were working on computers. I lost lucidity somewhere around here, and I can't remember what I did next. I might have woken up, not sure.
