non-lucid

2:30AM

I have another dream about being in the military. Damn I need to catch those. Something about my going on about how cheap they are being...

3:37AM

I listened to my relaxation app without the ocean sounds. After an hour I had crazy vibes. This time was like no other. It literally felt like a cell phone was on vibration continuously but it was vibrating my entire head. My first thought was that is was my GP vibration alarm to start my WBTB. This triggered a non lucid FA where it wakes my wife. I try turning the alarm off but it won't stop. After a moment I wake up for real and am surprised that my GP is lying next to me and I have earbuds in. I'm not really sure if this was the vibes or just a crazy FA.

4:20AM

I have a nightmare where my wife and I have an infant baby girl. She is in our bed and I sleep walk and but her in a pile of laundry. Then I FA and can't find her. I panic and eventually find her face down in a swaddle under the clothes. She is fine and I cry because I am so thankful that I didn't cause her harm.

Yay first DJ entry.

Alright, so, first, me and TF2 Scout and TF2 Engineer were all planning to go to a bookstore. Then suddenly Engie stopped existing for a while and Scout and I were right outside the door of this weird empty building.
We went inside and found that it was a large warehouse type place that for some reason reminded me of a stereotypical grocery store. There was large pile of rubble right inside, on which the Demoman was standing. He was all like, "Meh." then floated up a few feet and disappeared.
Nothing happened for a moment, then the lighting turned pinkish red and giant pairs of bikini-clad, disembodied, glowing, jiggling boobs appeared and Scout and I started spaz dancing. Soon, Engie started existing again when all three of us appeared in the bookstore.
We browsed the aisles for a few minutes, then we were suddenly tiny and running across my bed with my sleeping self in the background. Scout and Engie faded away, leaving me to run on my own. Soon, I reached the edge of my bed. I stood on the edge and did a kamehameha and woke up.

Dream 1(fragment):

There was something about dragons and possibly i was talking to one.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was playing some Serious Sam-style game, the map looked kinda like green plains withg normal and lava rivers. There were various weapons and i had to fight through some place full of cargo containers later. Then there was multiplayer mode that supported bots, but they were pretty bad and were mostly repeating some phrases instead of shooting and also were getting stuck in terrain somehow.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was watching videos of various RTS games, there was one that looked like Starcraft 2 graphically but gameplay-wise it was different, maybe custom map. At one point player was just commanding small group of very powerful floating mechas and had to fight some powerful enemies and bosses.

Aight, so I wasn't going to post this but decided eh, why not...

First Frag

I was on an old wooden ship, like an old pirate ship. I was in some sort of water holding tank within the ship, attempting to keep my calm. The water was so blue, a gorgeous hue, but my fear of open water was causing the panic to rise more every second that ticked by. My boyfriend was on the deck with a rope, slowly trying to pull me up from the holding tank. He was reassuring me it was going to be okay, there's nothing in there. As I slowly rose from the water, I periodically closed my eyes, and all I could see was blue as if I was deep in the open ocean. My heart jumped into my throat, fear rose. My boyfriend kept smiling, and making jokes as he kept hoisting the rope up, pulling me to safety. Once I was a few feet from the edge of the dock, he looked passed me to the tank and calmly told me he was wrong, there was a bull shark in the tank as well. When I looked down I saw no shark, but a swirl of blood in the water, and droplets of blood coming from my leg, then a splash, and a shimmer of a tail fin before it disappeared back into the water. I was out, I was safe in his arms now. He was still smiling down at me, but I was so angry and frightened from being in the tank I couldn't muster a smile...

Second Frag

I was floating around. I was not part of the dream, I was just an observer, watching the dream happen. There were kids on a beach, floating in the water. It was cartoonish, but not quite an actual cartoon. The kids realized they had drifted from the beach their parents were at. My view changed from being right beside the kids, to seeing a map of them moving back a few beaches to where their parents were.

Third Frag

I was in a house I dream of somewhat frequently. It's a plain house, white walls, beige carpets. There wasn't much going on. My boyfriend and I were walking around the house in search of something, but I don't recall what. As we walked around we found his dad sitting at a large wooden dining table. I had a feeling of being in trouble as his dad calmly ate his food. We walked away, heading for the door that led to the backyard..Once I crossed the threshold of the door the dream change. I was now at an indoor skating rink. We sat down on some bleachers with other spectators. There was a small hockey game going on. There was a young boy sitting with his mother beside me. My boyfriend poked me, and then to the kid. The kid asked if he could have some of my poutine with pulled pork on it, to which i glared, said "No, you had some already" and kept the delicious food to myself. I continued watching the hockey game.


I think that's about it for last night's dream..Can only recall these frags for now. Hoping tonight is more eventful!

I'm with and older cousin and her husband and children. We're in front of this gate that leads to this disneyland/college campus, but my cousin seems irritated that there is a women in a toll booth looking thing saying that it's not free anymore and that we have to pay to get in. So we start walking away, the toll booth lady gets distracted, and I see my cousin running into the gate opening so we all follow her in. then I walk off a little and the scene turns into like a costco store and I find the purple beach cruiser that my sister had as a child and I get on it and ride around a few aisles and I see a boy riding a blue version of the beach cruiser and we laugh because we both know we shouldn't be riding the bikes around the store, we decide we want to check out the other bikes for sell because we're more into bmx bikes. We get to the bike section but there's all these different acoustic guitars for sell there. We stand there confused wondering where the bikes are as an employees approaches us and tells us we can't ride bikes in the store so we ride away around some more aisle and find more bikes, they spread out one or two every aisle it's strange. And the bikes I find are ugly mountain/bmx bike hybrid looking things with 90's paint job on them. Then next thing I know me and the boy are getting ready to teleport or something, something big, and he tells me to sit in a chair and wait for the woman to come, when she comes she teleports the boy one body part at a time, next she does me, I sit in the chair and she sees my face and freaks out so I run off and she chases me and now we're running around this pool that is in the middle of nowhere, like a opening in a huge corn field, I threaten her that I'll jump in the water, so I do and I sink, then I get pulled to the shallow end by her and the boy, and now there's lots of other people there in the pool and out of the pool just watching the situation.

I was in a cave, a big circular cave with four support pillars. I was a guardsman (a soldier from the warhammer 40k universe) together with my squad. We were holding the only entrance to the cave against an incoming wave of tyranids (a kind of creature, again from the warhammer 40k universe). We were firing our laser rifles against them, but with no effect. So we started discussing what to do, and even though we did so for a long time the tyranids didn't reach us even though they were like 50 meters away.

We hatched a great idea. We started pouring the laser from our rifles into a bucket...yes, laser is apparently a liquid. (dream logic ftw!) Then we poured the liquid onto catapults and fired it against the tyranids, with great success! They still didn't move while we fired against them for some reason.

These dreams took place over the course of the last week.
Recall has fluctuated a lot.
L.K means the K-th dream on day L.

1.1
I am sitting in my high school AP Gov class, debating a book's usage of a Ben Franklin quote. I don't remember the quote itself. Maybe the exact quote was never actually in the dream, but only the concept that a Ben Franklin quote was just read aloud. I said that the usage couldn't have been what Franklin intended, since "America's founding was based on Athenian democracy." I asked the teacher, who was the one who actually taught my class in real life, "So is this story supposed to be post-present? Then why is the government fascist?" (In retrospect, none of this sounds anything like the AP Gov curriculum, nor does it sound like an even remotely intelligent discussion.) Friend AF was there too, but didn't say much.

1.2
Kinda related to dream 1.1. Was it the last day of classes for that year? My classmates and I had been sent off to buy party food at the local market. (The one where we'd occasionally buy lunch.) I was supposed to get frozen deserts: ice cream and popsicles. The popsicle flavors were unusual: lime, coconut, oreo (what the heck?). I was buying vanilla ones, as directed. (They seemed like creamsicles really.) It seemed like I'd been sent on the trip by my AP Gov teacher, but also by my math teacher. But it seemed like only one was doing anything like throwing a celebration in class. It was either/or, but my dreamstate was logically foggy enough to tolerate the potential contradiction there.

2.1
A dream on a beach. Grey sky, 30 degree sloping sand. I am with my dog, but a big black and white dog (a Border Collie, maybe?) is chasing us. (It looks very similar to a black and white dog I painted as a kid, though I didn't realize this until I woke up.) I have to push the dog out of the way; my palm redirects his snout away from my smaller dog. Oddly enough, when I looked back over at my dog, her snout looked shorter, and was a bit upturned. She looks vaguely princess-y, which doesn't suit her at all.

2.2
Another dream, in a watery world with lots of greenery. There is a big lake full of 20-foot diameter lily pads, and a bunch of stilt houses. In the distance there are mustard-yellow sand dunes and palm trees. I recall very little of what happened. It sort of seemed like part of a movie I was watching, and sort of like a video game. I eventually seemed to fight some boss battle against a creature resembling the Omega Pirate from Metroid Prime.

2.3
Another dream. Vaguely Harry Potter-like. (Similarities with the Gringots transportation system, the Ministry of Magic's toilet entrance, and Hermione Granger.) Me, Emma Watson, and some other random people enter a public bathroom in the subway station. The florescent lights are out, save for one, so it's pretty dark. The walls are made of cinder blocks and concrete. We all step into the wheelchair-accessible stall, where there's an fancy old-fashioned steel-cage elevator. We all get in. Emma Watson presses a button to take us all back to "the apartment." (Do we live together?) The elevator goes up, slides along the high ceiling, through a ventilation shaft whose opening is oriented perpendicular to the ground. The elevator exits the ventalation system. We turn right, and right again, and hover above an empty stall in a different subway station bathroom. The elevator plunges through the floor, and drops me and Emma Watson off in a stairwell.

The stairwell resembles the one in Eddy Morra's chinatown apartment (from the movie Limitless). The main difference is the stairs go up the opposite direction; the torque of the stairs is downwards in the movie, but upwards in my dream. Additionally, there's a large window situated to the right of the stair steps we've been dropped off at. Outside the window is a street, and across the street is some random inner-city shops, grey sky, trees with waxy circular leaves and light-grey bark. I am about to open the front door, but I hear shouting and furniture banging around. I knock on the door. A bullet whizzes past me, from through the door. I move to the right side of the door, back near the window. I jiggle the door handle, so that whoever is doing the shooting will think I'm still there, and will waste bullets. He shoots so many holes through the door that one could easily push a big chunk of the wood from the door right through. I wait silently. The shooter approaches the door, and pushes a big portion of the door's wood through. Just what I thought would happen.

The shooter sticks his head out. It's Tracy Morgan. (Lolwut?) He sees us and tries to shoot. I push Emma Watson out of the way, and move in front of the door. He'll have to turn his gun, a silver six-shooter, about 90 degrees in order to shoot me. But I won't let that happen. I grab his hand with my right hand, and the muzzle of his gun with my left. His wrist strength against two arms? No way. I turn the gun on him, and blast his brains out. Geez.

Anyway, I open the door, and walk in. The place is poorly lit, but there's light creeping in from the dusty horizontal blinds on the windows. My parents are inside; my Mom is at the narrow end of a ceramic table with tiles embedded in it, and my Dad is sitting in the middle of the long side, with his chair turned to face the TV. They seem unaware of the whole Tracy Morgan incident that just took place. They tell me they're about to watch a movie, and ask if I'd like to join them. I ask what they'll watch. I begin reading the decription on the DVD envelope. It's not that great-sounding. I hesitate, and ask if we can watch the movie from dream 2.3. (I didn't ask verbally though. It seemed more like telepathy.) My Dad points out that Natalie Portman is in this movie. I decide to watch it. I sit on the light-beige carpeted floor, leaving against an unoccupied grey couch behind me. In the movie, Natalie Portman has shoulder-length lavender colored hair, but I hardly found it unusual, (nor should I, necessarily) since "it's just a movie."

After the movie ends, I get up and go to the fridge. There are shrunken heads inside, in glass jars. They're marinading in something. I freak out, and wake up.

3.1
I go to a shop with beige walls, with depth about 100 feet, and width about 20 feet. The far end of the otherwise barren room has a sloped refrigerating shelf, (kinda like the place in Starbucks where bottled drinks are, but much steeper angle and many more levels). The shelf is taller than I am. There are lots of elixirs and nootropic beverages on the shelf. I pick out a JustChill which has a greenish color in place of the customary blue. I also buy a second drink, whose details I don't remember or maybe never dreamed up.

I head to my Dad's office, which seems to be in the Physics research building on campus. Huh. His office is long but not deep. About 30 feet wide, 7 feet deep. There are two windows, each with has black horizontal metal window shades. A yellowish light radiates from from the ceiling, onto beige walls and a chevron-shaped desk, made of glued together bits of recycled-wood. It's nestled into into the corner. I tell him "these drinks are great for focus," and that "they even have blueberry flavor," although that isn't the flavor I bought. He thanks me for telling him, but declines to try one.

4.1
I am in a girl's dorm room. The room has royal blue walls, and a 2 foot wide square window, across from the door. Between the door and the window is a desk of opaque tempered glass, like the one in my room. I'm sitting sideways in her swivel chair. Outside the window is the top of a tree, and the pale grey sky.

The girl has red hair, green eyes, a blue sweater, and a pink skirt. God she's cute. The rest is R-rated.

5.1
At an odd sort of apartment, where the wooden stairs come up to a wall, without there being a platform to stand on before getting to the wall. It kinda resembles Friend NH's place. Running parallel with the stairs' horizontal component is a hallway, with yellow wood floors, and white walls. Friend MZ has let me in, and I ask why he hadn't collected rent the money I send him a while ago. He gives an unintelligible answer, and I ask if it needs to be a paper check. He says no, and as he does so, he turns into Friend LM, but with an egg-shaped head. What the heck? He directs me to go down the hallway. He opens a white door full of glass windows. I see Friend MP inside the sun room, which has olive-colored shades covering the windows, and light creeping in through the edges. He raises a drink in greeting.

My alarm goes off, I wake up.

6.1
More border collies. A recurring dream? The context seemed a bit different. All I remember is that black and white dog from dream 2.1.

1.

Length: ~1 hour
Type: Non-lucid


I was riding a boat with a whole ton of people. I can't remember whether they were in my family or not. But I knew that my Aunt Susan, my brother, and my cousin were there with me. So I sort of guessed we were in the same family. We were going to ride boats, and I started to say "I call the front seat". Because everyone knows its the best on a small boat. Surprisingly, no one argued. We got down and I got in a boat with... my cousin, my aunt, and my brother.

We rode out first and started doing some loops around a island just offshore waiting for the others. Then they came out. It was like 7 boats packed to the teeth with people. My aunt said "Wow, that many of us...". My aunt then got out and said "Well, you don't have to worry about me, I'm walkin'"
That did seem like her, always wanting to walk instead of being transported by other means, but it was strange, because I didn't even know you could walk this path.

Now that's strange in waking life because I had knowledge of a path I'd never taken in waking life, but I knew about it in a dream.
I feel like I'm learning new things about dreaming every night.

Anyways, she hopped out and I took the controls, then I blasted away and the others followed me.

Then, I woke up.

Length: ~20 minutes
Type: Non-lucid

I opened a shop selling souvenir pictures from my trip to Alaska. I was at home flipping through channels on my favorite red couch (favorite couches never chance, even in dreams). Then my brother walked up to me and offered me some money for the shop. I hesitated, then sold him it.

After this, I can't recall what happened, but I do know that I eventually got it back and he was madder than hell at me. Which isn't that weird in waking life.

All that stuff gives me and excuse to not have done a reality check. No dream sign, realism (I was even thinking of setting up that "shop" in real life at Eugene's Saturday market!).

Anyways... go along now.

i had to put together some christmas-themed gift bags for my classmates. i was walking to the dollar store, which i understood was in downtown toronto although the area seemed more suburban. it was sunny outside and obviously not winter. i entered the dollar store, which was more like a warehouse. i wandered around for a long time looking for gifts. i purchased some small things. i had to be careful because i didn't have much money. one area contained some creepy old dollhouse furniture. i left this area and found out that my boyfriend was here. we looked at stuff together. i found a pair of fleece pants with airbrushed bears, owls and eagles on them and i thought they were amazing, but the tag said 'size 46' and i didn't know if anyone in my class was that large.

there was a 'computer room' in the warehouse and i wanted to use my computer for some reason. i tried to turn it on but the screen was blank. a tall guy was laughing at me.

i decided to leave, so i walked a block over to the other dollar store. i hadn't gone inside when i realized that i didn't tell my boyfriend that i left. i sat down on an outdoor bench outside of a bar and tried to get wifi on my phone. i sent him a message but i wasn't sure if it went through.

then i saw a bus and i got on it for some reason. the bus took me back home in about a minute (it would be at least an hour in real life!) and i felt really bad that i had left my boyfriend in toronto.

playing Superhero Card Game with Aliens
Playing weird card game with aliens as players and superhero cards. Had to correct the aliens on the value of earth superheroes (they had underestimated them by far). So once we corrected the value of our superheroes, some superhero that had before been completely beaten by the alien superhero in the card game, now won easily.

Theft or Gift
My older son saw that the daughter of the proprietor of a store was pining for a magazine. So he reached into the cash register and used money from there to "pay" for the magazine, which he gave to this girl. Then we talked about whether this is stealing: it was not his money, but he did not take the magazine, the girl is the daughter of the store owner, and my son ment well. I said that he would need to return the magazine to where it was because it was not bought with his money, and this he could not decide what happened with it.

Meeting a DV member and family face to face
I dreamed about meeting a member of DreamViews face to face. I do not know who she was, which user name, but she was a young woman. She had a very weird large family whom I got to meet too because we met at her home. I brought my sons with me. We sat on her porch, but then moved inside. I had a sense of interacting with various weird family members. I had brought my son's school photos with me, and one of the women in her family wanted to see them, but I could not find the actual photos in the lavish gift bundle that I had gotten with the photos. At some point in the dream the young woman I was meeting pointed out to me that my eyeglasses cleaner had fallen out of my purse, broken, and now the liquid was spreading over the hardwood floor. I felt bed about that. As my sons and I were leaving one of her older female relatives kept insisting on kissing my younger son repeatedly - I was annoyed about that. My younger son who is in reality four seemed much younger than he is, and I was carrying him out of some reason. The other DV member and I said that we looked forward to interacting on DV.

Religion Test
Some men talking to me and my family about religion. One of them said that he would want to test my faith by asking questions to see whether I believe them. The first question was actually two questions combined, something like "Do you believe in one God who is separate from all creation?" And I said that while I believe in one God, but he is deeply interconnected with his creation as the Holy Spirit. The man did not like this answer - he wanted faith on his definitions.

My memory of the dream is rather shaky, but here it goes: I was a dwarf living in a dwarf fortress, although everything seemed to be rather manmade. There were a lot of tunnels we used for transportation that were, for whatever reason, filled with water. Strangely enough, I was a wizard.

From what I recall, the plot of the dream goes like this: I'm trying to get through a tunnel, but some construction workers stop me because it's filled with water. I wait until it's ready and go through, and I end up in a place resembling a playground on a giant plate. I climb to the top to where the mayor of the fortress is, and from there I begin practicing magic (essentially I looked for a random critter on the plate and blasted it with a tornado of fire when I saw it). I did this for a while before I went back through the tunnel to my home (which appeared to be the ONLY thing underground). It was connected to several other rooms, sort of like a hotel. A loudspeaker went off and told everyone that a tournament was being held, so I got ready to fight and went to the arena, but I woke up before I could enter.

My magic abilities were similar to using a staff in Cubeworld, and the creatures resembled creatures from Cubeworld. There was also the odd mention of an absurdly expensive "green marmalade" that could be used to tame a "brown forest healer" but I only remember hearing about the green marmalade in fragments (except for a bit where it was announced just outside the arena) and I only saw the forest healers in a fragment once (they resembled the Black Mage from FF1, except their clothes were brown).

Dream recall from today's nap.

There was something about dragons.

1. [non-lucid]
I'm walking a child home from his school, he has a white bag with something that looks like sticks of liquorish, he was told he was not allowed to eat them.
As we were walking home he decided to go ahead and eat 1, this annoyed me so I tried to ram him a few times (with my wheelchair) to punish him but it didn't do anything, randomly a woman appeared and slapped him, this seemed to do the trick, we carried on walking home.

2. [non-lucid]
I for some reason end up on a dock unable to get off it because the only way off is via a ladder...I cant use a ladder due to being in a wheelchair so that is quite a problem right there, someone approaches me and its Vinnie (A dick from my old College), he laughed and said something then climbed the ladder.

fragments:
I'm in some sort of game where I am speeding through moving platforms and dodging obstacles
Attacking and killing big n scary monsters in an indoor pool thingy.

Notable Items & People:
Ladder, Pool, Vinnie, Dock, Liquorish Sticks, White bag, Child

Today i dreamt i was giving a walk with my brother and my mom.
My brother asked me if I could borrow him my phone, i did borrow.
I could listen what my brother was thinking: "Should i do it now? is it the right time now?
well i'll do it" he phoned his girlfriend and decided to tell her why he didn't tell her anything
about he being "dissapeared" from their house 2 days ago. His girlfriend monologue:
"What happened to you?"
"Why you didn't tell me anything?"
"I was worried you know?" <- almost crying
**WEIRD PART**
"I wanted you to come home, i want your love" <- crying
"I want your friendship" <- crying
"I want the music" <- crying
My mom tried to talk to her but it was useless, she just continued with this nonsense monologue...
"I want the football" <- crying
And i whispered to myself
"I want a lucid dream"


Technique used for this dream: MILD
Sleep time: 6 hours

NEW FORMAT:

Awake

I find myself in Hawaii for some unknown reason. I'm walking down the sidewalk on a beautiful evening. Suddenly, I start to become really tired for some reason and begin drifting in and out of "sleep" as I walk along. Some people take notice and walk with me and keep me awake. We stop by a ledge and see another one of the islands of Hawaii. There is a battle taking place. I can see explosions and whatnot on the island. Someone explains to me that the Hawaiians and some sort of rebel force are having a war in the state. We now see two rebel tanks coming down the road and we jump for cover. The two tanks pass, and we move along.

Some fragments of the dream in between scenes are forgotten, but I now find myself in the passenger seat of a van on the highway. We're still in Hawaii and the red evening sky is still present as well. As we get on the highway I see the speed limit sign reads 75 MPH. That is faster than normal where I live(usually 65, then 70 on the turnpike). We speed up to pace and move towards a tunnel. We see cars driving crazily on the road, as if they're trying to get away from something. We now swerve out of the way of three SUVs moving the wrong way. Shortly we enter the tunnel which has no lighting in it. The driver turns on his lights and we come to a three way intersection, seeing it last second. The driver spins the steering wheel but can't make the turn, smashing us into the wall. We get out, lucky to be even unharmed. Then a group of armed cars stop just down the tunnel. Armed soldiers come out and begin to open fire, but that is all I remember before awakening.
