non-lucid

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps. Was really ultralow awareness on that MiniLD. Also that's quite alot of missed FAs...

Dream 1(fragments):

I woke up at home and there's something about some fight.

Dream 2(Fragments):

I was in ship at some sea, sailing kind of ship, there was a team and we were searching for something. At one point we have arrived onto an island made fully of sand.

Dream 3(fragments):

I wake up and get interrupted by family member who decided to watch some movie about witches in my room, he throws me some magazine. Then i wake up again and get interrupted by what i think is vivid HH with stuff leaving afterimages.

Dream 4(fragments):

I woke up, typed up dreams and there was some image hosting site that was asking for money while saying that it's 'free'.

Dream 5(fragments):

I am on some beach and i have to mark some position on water, as i swim somebody says that something is not right and i get the feeling that i am dreaming, i swim around and find some kind of window floating in midair that leads indoors, then dream fades out.

Dream 6(fragments):

I was watching some long gif, that was more like video, it even had sound! It was about some fraxy boss that somebody just finished. It was kinda humanoid but was made out of deforming polygons or something, one of his attacks was transformation into a huge scythe and striking through most of the screen. Then other attack pattern involved summoning smaller(but still pretty big) scythe and another scythe made of energy. The boss was pretty glitchy and had too many phases which were animated but didn't had any actual patterns, then there was last attack that spawned 4-5 small blue homing scythes and some glowy orb.

Dream 7(fragments):

I was playing some strategy game.

So, I play a LOT of Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Zombies. Last night I had a dream that my boyfriend, my cousins, his sister, and some Chinese chick were all in a house together, and we were hiding from some zombies, when the first zombie came out a big siren was heard, and I looked up and there were 5 red-ish moons super close to the earth, and some were smaller, and some were bigger, and they had huge craters in them. So my boyfriend and I ran to the house and locked ourselves up in a concrete and steel room, with small doors to get in, and with many locks on the doors, we stayed in there with everyone until the Chinese woman started to turn, so we ran out, she chased us to a pool, and she bit someone, the other woman who was bit tried to say she didn't get bit and was crying and trying to follow me, but her eyes started to change colors, and my boyfriend and I ran back home, my cousins were fast asleep in their rooms, and that's how I wanted it to stay. I didn't want them to see all of this. My bf and I went into the living room and tried to lock the doors, but they wouldn't lock for anything. We had many windows and glass doors. And it was daylight and this little zombie boy started running at my house, and i'm not sure what happened next. But little details in the dream was that when we heard the siren we were at a gas station buying candy, and we ran home. In the steel and concrete room there were lots of shelves and food and stuff. I wonder how that woman just turned when she was never bitten. Why were the moons red and super close, and why were there more than one? It was crazy.

Dream 1


I was starting either Alderly Edge or Altrincham school for Girls except it looked nothing like it actually does, and we had to get the tube/train there but I didn't know where I was going and my friends got on a tube to go to the entrance but I didnt go on because I thought they were wrong, I got very lost

I was then at Hartford High School had hurt my eye somehow temporarily blinding me but I could still see a bit but I pretended I couldnt so me and my 2 friends went in the lift instead of using the stairs to go to the top floor.

My eyes werent a problem anymore and it was the auditions for the school play which was just like Oklahoma but it wasn't, and the music for one of the dances was the music for a dance some of the junior girls are doing at my dance school so I was freestyling with a girl there whilst wearing massive dresses. There were 2 main parts going, I got one of them then it was between my friend Charlotte and a girl I met in London a few weeks ago called Mollie, Charlotte got it and I was trying to console Molly but she was really angry and screaming at me. There were 2 boys there who were short.

Dream 2

Sticking to the school theme I had now started a new school in India and was staying with a boy I knew in primary school who was indian and his family. I was doing my A-Levels and I wanted to take up a new AS so I was talking to the headteacher about what to do and he was trying to persuade me to do Religious Studies, but I thought it was a waste of time and nothing fit into my timetable anyway.

I needed a proper uniform as I wasn't really wearing it, and form looking a photos in their yearbook I realised they had blue shirts, red and blue ties and a maroon jumper - exactly the same as the high school I actually went to except It had different writing on the jumper. Some students had dark blue blazers and/or white shirts. They sent me a list of the uniform and how to buy it, I woke up before I could get my old stuff.

Dream 3 ish

Im not sure whether this was at the Indian boys house or not, but I was a boy staying with someone in a 4 storey town house, and we were making glass stuff on the boys sisters bed and we got loads of glass shards in it, but we lied and said we were doing something else and we thought they hadn't found out and believed us. We were doing loads of other stupid things and finally got caught out and had to admit about the glass

Dream 4

I was in a park of somesort which looked like my front garden, and there were some boys from one of the schools there on a weird plastic sledge thing adn they were going up some ramps.
A girl was then encouracged by her dad to go on it over a lake, but stop half way turn round and come back which is impossible but at the time perfectly possible, I told her to put some vaseline on it to make it slipperyer

8/30/2013, 10:20-6:59

I meditated twice before going to sleep. I wrote down some stuff that happened in my day journal. I did a mantra before falling asleep in bed, "I remember my dreams." Last, I also woke up at 3:55, and stayed up for 3 minutes till 3:58.I ended up with two pretty vivid dreams and one dream fragment.

Dream 1:

There was a pizza world and a color world floating through space. The color world had red, blue, green, and yellow "yarn" sown onto it. There was also a basement somewhere else in space (the basement of the universe? ). The controllers of these two worlds, and a few of their associates, were in this basement. It seemed as though the pizza world leader had the color world leader in chains attached to the ceiling. There was a single light bulb that kept swinging and was the only light source in the basement (might have been earthquakes or basement shaking?).

The pizza world leader was interrogating the color world leader like a lawyer, with
his hands behind his back, palm in palm. Every time the color world leader answered a question wrong, water was spilled on his face and the pizza world grew bigger. The pizza world leader was torturing the color world leader. This went on for a while until the pizza world took over the color world. The dream eventually ends with a bunch of pizza on the "camera".

Dream 2:

I remember going on a quad ride with my family. We used the two quads, and managed to fit four people on them. We went up into the woods, on some path. There were a few ditches and mountains and stuff. Eventually the path we were on ended, and we started heading back. I then fell off one of the quads, probably my brother, J's. I was then going to go on Dad's because J kept going and didn't stop for me. I was fine with that because J drives like a madman. Mom got off Dad's quad and said she'd walk.

We kept going till we found J's quad trapped in a ditch. He tried to get out of it backwards, but flipped the quad over as we passed! The dream ends there.

Dream 3:

I remember looking at a Caucasian blonde girl. She had a cute skirt on, and her shirt might have been white (possibly Catholic school uniform?). She had no panties on, and was lifting her skirt up. I almost got to see her vagina, then the dream ends .

non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

(...) I meet a girl who is struggling with cancer. She is a concerned that she is getting too thin no matter what she eats. I try to help her recover her self-esteem. Somehow I feel she is redirecting her anger and frustration with being sick, to how she looks. I tell her it's normal to loose weight due to the treatments and the consequent lack of appetite. I tell her about my friend who died of cancer and the things she went through. Not so cheerful, I know, but then I offer to help her with her diet to see if she can get back to the weight where she feels comfortable. She actually gets a bit too fat, but still her frustration continues. One day, I'm taking her to my beach house to relax, but people are being evacuated from the beach because the ocean is a bit rough and also there is a giant shark close to the shore. She decides is the perfect opportunitty to put an end to her life by jumping from my balcony to the ocean. The waves reach the balcony and we risk being dragged by the next wave coming, the shark is just below, but I decide going after her and bringing her in. She calms down and apparently all goes well from then on.
This beach house is amazing, like a glass cube, but not so much privacy unless I keep the curtains close. But on the next day after the storm, I enjoy the radiant sun with all my curtains open and forget about it. Decide to do some workout fully naked. Bad mistake. After a while I realize there's some 2 or 3 guys watching me from a nearby location and having the time of their lives. I feel so embarassed, I grab the first piece of clothing I see around and run away. It is my pijama and when I notice, I'm on the elevator to the outside. Not a well thought decision. I find myself in the middle of a crowd in my pijama.
Then I wake up, but I feel I am lingering between sleep and awakefulness and attempt to WILD. I have the strangest experience, because I start seeing people, I realize, I'm back in the dream, but I am also moving my body on the bed but unlike other times in which this is enough to stop the dreaming, this time I could continue consciously dreaming with my eyes closed, while I was fully awake and moving my body. This has started to happen since I was able to have what it feels like REM during sitting meditation. Somehow it's like I turned on the ability to REM and dream while awake. Or maybe it's called hallucination

August 30 2013 - Dream Fragment #1 I remember my parents driving me into this small mall/plaza area where there were quite a few stores. A bunch of things happened that I can't seem to remember and then I remember being in a very shallow sea, maybe 2 ft deep and stretching out for as long as I could see, with some black-brown trees far, far in the horizon. I was struggling to run through this water and I eventually just swam. It was barely deep enough, but I bent my arms enough to do it. I remember getting to a waterfall and then realizing I have powers and flying up it.

Thursday, August 29 8:00 am WBTB Induction attempt *fell asleep too soon *


Interesting dream fragment where my mother is driving us somewhere, and the song 'lights' starts to play on the radio. (The song by Journey, not the one by Ellie Goulding). When the song is finished, I start to complain about how there is no difference between that song when it first came out, and now. I complain that there needs to be a new rendition that is different because the song is so boring (which I don't REALLY feel, so why I would say that in my dreams, I have no freaking clue, LOL). All I can remember really, is my mother and I arguing about this, as she tells me that the song is a good song and should stay the way it is, not be changed. Wish I could remember more, as this was a rather funny conversation

In an unknown gym, open garage front with elevated ring in centre. Sparring Carlos Condit, am a big fan and am super wrapped to be able to spar with the dude. I say im pretty novice but he says im a good novice. Both tagging eachother having fun, using the ropes to my advantage, slipping and throwing punches. (We are just boxing) He's wearing red shorts, im wearing red head gear, a track jackets and shorts. Dad jumps in and films it. We discus various aspects of martial arts, standing striking and jiu jitsu.

Fragments: Dont get to spar Condit, both drive off.

Fragment:

-I zoom into a scene and see a flying character, and am able to make out that she’s carrying another female character. Apparently it’s a scene in ‘the new episode’. After watching it, I feel like I had already seen it before.

-Someone asking me if I’ve ‘seen the new episode (yet)’
- Someone calling the flying girls ‘old people’
-Think I remember seeing Greek columns in the scenery.

Possible inspiration: Me telling Pillywiggin that I need to watch the new episode of Free!.

Fragments:

-A community living off limited resources

-Image in my head of three Inazuma Eleven characters standing next to each other, maybe performing a hissatsu technique together.
- The phrase ‘Running away from the ball’.

Fragments:

1) Like three people transform into one thing into another and back? ‘I’ was talking on the phone to a man, but when I went to see him in person, it was a small black woman, and I called her out on it.

2) Me, Rane and her ex chilling in a bed, it was kind of awkward.

3) Looking at books in a library with a boy, there are some manga as well. I casually steal one so he can’t see, because I know he won’t like me doing it. In another section, I notice that someone didn’t sort a few manga right, one of them is a Bleach volume.

Notes:

I had four dreams yesterday but they were mostly fragments/confusing.

Immorality is definitely going back on my list as a dream sign. n_n

I think deja vu is making a comeback in my dreams again as well.

Last night was weird. Went to bed early and stop using my lap two hours before. Had three dreams, all in different time sections. But it seems that all three were about traveling. After waking up I recall two of them, but then I forgot. I was completely blind, the more I try to recall them I couldn't. Then I put my mind on getting ready for work and just like that I remembered the two dreams.... plus another one I had but didn't remember when i recall the first time.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was playing some video game and there was something about dragons, then i talked to MC and game turned to be more like spiral knights.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was at some place with trenches and wooden barricades.

I was looking for a spot to build kinda like in mc and when my fried bryan and i finally found a spot we took it and started to clear off the trees. as soon as we where almost done with that my friend grant comes over and says (he does not like you here" i knew he was talking about a spirit because he is always trying to astral project and i figued he had just been communicated with the spirits near by so my friend grant told me to leave and i did so asap to avoid the wrath of a spirit. I remember just of feeling of shear terror. so my friend bryan and i moved on as quickly as possible.

Pre bed: 200mg valerian

Total sleep time: 5 1/2hrs, external factors, very tired

Early fragment: many iPhones

Early fragment: I am talking to someone about how I'm about to ld

Woken up, WBTB, insomnia

Fragment: some sort of toy head that is spinning in the water

LD fragment: I am in our old place and see lots of people on the stairs, including an older lady who passed away years ago. After seeing her, it dawns on me that it's a dream. I make a sound to acknowledge the fact that I recognize her as a dream sign (also for the first time!). Not sure if I said something or not to her or others there, but I head down the stairs and exit the building. I think about visiting my friend but this time decide to go to his work since it's really close.

I am on the street now, but feel that the dream is starting to destabilize, so take a moment to fix that. I remember the behave as if real life, but can't figure out how to apply this at the moment. Instead, I turn back to where the fence is and start touching the stone, feeling the surface. It doesn't do the trick and I feel I have very little time left so I just observe whatever is in front of me as I see and feel the dream as if made of liquid energy (same image but like underwater) being gently sucked in an unknown direction until it turns to a light feeling in my head and I find myself in bed..

DEILD: I remain still and fall asleep more from being tired than from trying to DEILD. Yet, I end up in an ld that I unfortunately no longer can recall. Not very nice but it happens.

LD: After the previous dream fades, I find myself in darkness, but it's actually a room. It takes a while but then I can see just a bit better to orientate myself, confirm by the feel of it that this is a dream and that I am in our place. I am slightly amazed since I don't get many lds here. I go to the living room and decide I will phase out the window and press myself against it. However, it feels way too solid, I know I can do it and refuse to believe it's not working so push myself forward. Nothing. I become confused, thinking I may actually be sleepwalking around the house. I decide to go out the good old fashioned way - through the door. I am thinking about doing a quick review of the dreams so that I don't forget. A guy appears in front of me, sitting on the couch. He is quite a good mirror of my thoughts and emotions. Initially, he looks menacing, but as I contemplate what to do here and have a moment of sexy thoughts, he immediately becomes more appealing, making gestures with his hands "come here". Then I tell myself to calm down, inhale exhale metaphorically, sit and relax and he stares at me neutrally.

I am thinking something about the previous dream and wonder if I have performed some tricks to enhance this dream's stability. I wonder if I tried to go to bed in the dream as a way to change the scene and since I feel kind of stuck here, I decide that I will try to do that now. As I go to sleep, the guy lies behind me, pretending he is falling asleep too. I fidget way too much, also get a few moments of are my eyes open or closed, and don't try to open them, until I finally succeed to move my physical leg and wake up.

I woke up but couldn't takes notes on time as I involuntarily fell asleep again.

I was walking around in a city with a girl (that I know IRL), we were friends and had decided to go exploring. But it eventually became more of an adventure date.

I remember us walking across this huge dark concrete bridge, seeing skyscrapers in the distance.

We passed by a small trapdoor that read "XS (as in extra small) storage". The girl shuddered and explained she once had to hide in one of these that was on a train. She had done that since she didn't had a ticket, she said it was horribly crammed and one of her worst experiences ever.

We walked across the bridge and ended up walking past an old abandoned mining complex. We decided to explore it, even though we knew it was illegal, and climbed across the fence that surrounded it. The place were painter mostly in grey, and with large 2-3 storage buildings. I remember the terrain was that of a desert.

But when I entered there I ran into Nale, from the linear guild! It is a fictional character from a online comic called "order of the stick". We talked about something, and it ended with him attacking and killing me while I was trying to protect the girl.

But then I loaded a previous save and returned to the point when I just met Nale! For some reason I saw the world with an UI like Dragon age 2! (probably because I was playing the game the entire other day :p) Like in DA 2 I got several choices of what to do, and I managed to choose the one that allowed me to talk my way through the situation. I don't remember what I said, but he replied "well played!" and summoned me to follow him into the building. He then called for Thog, another member of the linear guild, and he came. He was grumpy and complaining and pushed past all of us.

08-29-2013 -- [Short dream with not too much to it, that turned out to be quite detailed and long.] Something about cats, other animals, and possibly digging holes in the back yard at the Hickory house. Something else about BC being around. Then I find myself in a classroom setting. It feels very like a high school class, though the teacher is Julie Davey. No idea what the subject is. I've just finished a test of some sort, and it seemed somewhat quick and simple. I seem to be spending the time afterward brainstorming some fiction writing or something, perhaps a Victor story, when Julie comes by for my test, surprised I am done so quickly.

I explain I think I did quite well, and she agrees, knowing how I always seem to test pretty well, and I start rummaging through my things until I come across the newspaper clipping we were supposed to be reviewing after the test. Glancing at the picture, wondering what it is about, I see almost a full-size model of a rocket, made out of huge balloons, and am thinking how I've made a similar ship out of a 160 and a bee body many times.

Julie looks at the clock, and it is just a couple of minutes before 5:30, so she tells us to start gathering our things, and get back to a more usual seating arrangement than the random groupings we'd been in. I end up sitting next to a cute blonde, waiting for the last couple of minutes to end, and we somehow seem to be talking about how about half the class had left at 1:30. Perhaps it was an optional class or something.

Class is soon over, and I find myself approaching Dale's house. I almost seem to be floating over the Nabisco plant to reach his driveway. (Considering later in the dream I am lucid and do some flying, perhaps I was flying here, as well.) I am driving a car, but as I approach their driveway, I remember something about them repaving it, and I walk up carrying my motorcycle, trying to get it on the strip of grass next to the paved driveway, where all their cars are parked, right now. (In real life, that strip of grass is at most a foot and a half wide.)

I find myself passing three animals that seem to look a lot like wolves, and I am a little worried, but not much. Then they shift and sit up, then start to hop off, and I realize they aren't wolves, but kangaroos, and wonder what the heck they are doing in Buena Park? Somehow I seem to be soaked, so I am taking off my pants and shirt and dropping them on the cycle, and wrapping myself in a big gray towel. About that time, Kevin wanders out of the house, says a couple of sentences of what seems to be gibberish, and then climbs in a car and drives off, which worries me. (He's not allowed to drive.)

I open the door to the house and walk in, only thinking about what I might walk into to barging into somebody else's house without knocking after I get inside, so I kind of bashfully knock on the wall. Fred and Betty are in the living room, and they don't seem to have minded my walking right in. I spot odd movement on the floor, and find myself looking at an odd white and pink puppy that seems to be a cross between a bijon and a poodle, though the coloring looks like some of the white and pink snakes I saw pictures of on the internet a few months ago. Soon I see two more wiggling out from under the blank. I ask Betty "You got new dogs?", kind of surprised. She tells me they don't know if they will keep them.

I have brought a cheap pizza with me, and open the refrigerator to put it in there, and see they have maybe 3/4 of a huge 26 inch party pizza from Ciro's sitting in there, pepperoni and sausage. Wish I'd known ... I wouldn't have bothered with the lousy one I got. I'm thinking I have to see if I can snag a couple of slices. Meanwhile, I am trying to find Dale, so I walk a few feet down the corridor to his room, but when I glance inside, he has a couple of girls in there, with him. [Not doing anything wrong ... this isn't that kind of dream.] I'm thinking about razzing him about it, until I realize I am still walking around wrapped in a towel, and decide I had better get some clothes on. It seems today is a big ball game of some sort, and they have a lot of people over to see it.

I walk outside, wanting to get my clothes, but somehow the area has changed a little, and I have to climb a fence (like we were going to visit Bertha) to get back to where my motorcycle is parked, I finally find it, and grab my blue shirt and start putting it on, just to discover I am putting it on over the top of another one. Somehow a shirt and pants just appeared on my body, and I realize I am dreaming. I try to hop the fence back to Dale's, but somehow I seem to be being pulled in the opposite direction. So I leap up and try to fly, and manage the flying, but am getting sucked at high speed toward what was the Nabisco plant. I go crashing through a wall, and find myself standing in a room surrounded by people.

It seems I have somehow been kind of summoned, as I am now surrounded by lots of people, and they have called me to be a candidate, as they try to figure who they want as their candidate for president. There are a bunch of other candidates as well, and they are talking to people, making speeches, and all of them are holding on to their wives. Every one. I look around and see an attractive blonde (she kind of looks like Reese Witherspoon) watching everything, and I grab her and pull her to me, just kind of joking around. She turns to tell me off, and our eyes meet, and wow! It's like we suddenly know everything about each other. Her head kind of tilts to the side as she studies me, and a small grin starts to form on her face before I lean in and give her a gentle kiss, then wrap my arm around her shoulder. We're now a couple, and very happy to have found each other.

But she is working here, and has things to do, so I have to let her go for a time. The others and I are writing speeches and songs or something, and I am singing a little ditty I've been working on. It's not fabulous, but it's not too bad, either. But one of the others makes a really nasty comment about it. I turn to him, ready to rip into his song, but I don't really want to run that kind of a campaign, so I have to settle for simply telling him his needs some work, too. Besides, I don't really have all that much interest in singing some kind of political song. Instead, I decide I want to sing to my new love, and am trying to remember the words to a song I wrote about 18 years ago called Love with Me. In waking life I can remember it fine, but in the dream, it was a struggle. Meanwhile, I have no voice, so I am not going to be able to sing well, but I hope the words (and the fact that I wrote it) will still have meaning to her.

Dale is here, as well, and we are wandering around the convention, and for some reason I am carrying a fire hose with me, though it isn't spraying. We're just approaching a stadium, and preparing to look for seats, and I am wondering just how much length this hose has, as I've dragged it a pretty far distance by this time. My new girlfriend shows up, and I drape my arm around her shoulder, lean my head against her, and just relax in the wonderful feeling of having her there next to me.
