non-lucid

I had a dream last night that really confused me and made me think alittle..im a senior in highschool now but In my dream I was older.. but not by much...probably just going to college. I was in a hotel room with this other girl. She was gorgeous with long blonde hair. I remember specifically that she was younger than me, but not by much. She swore to me that she wasn't "like that" (meaning she wasnt a lesbian) when I tried flirting with her. I don't know why we were together in a hotel room or why I was even there at all! But during my dream Im pretty sure I knee exactly why I was there and who she was... it probably wasn't an important detail and that's why I forgot.. but anyways it started storming and I'm not sure why the storm was so scary for me, in waking life Iove storms, but in the dream it frightened me.. but then the girl grabbed my hands and held me and promised that she'd keep me safe... the emotions I felt for her were so strong.. I felt nothing but love for her in that moment in my dream, then I remember myself saying to her "are you sure you aren't like that?" Ans she only smiled and held me even closer.. then I woke up. And now looking back on my dream I'm wondering how I can have such strong feelings for someone I've never even met.. does she exist? Is this dream something that's going to happen? Am I going to meet her in my near future? I feel such a connection with this girl in my dream its crazy.. I feel like I know her, but I've never met her.. and now I miss her and hope she's in my dream again!! This is the weirdest feeling I've ever had..

I took a nap earlier and I had a dream that was kinda like a continuation of my zombie apocalypse dream. The cast of True blood and I were in a jail cell drinking some beer when when some zombies found us and were reaching in to the cell to try to grab one of us. The old guy from earlier was taunting them and one of them grabbed him, pulled him close and took a bite out of his neck. The guy that shapeshifts into a dog (I forget his name) grabbed a metal strut and stabbed him in the head so he wouldn't become a zombie as we'd be trapped in the cell with him. all the commotion attracted more zombies but we just carried on chilling on the far side of the cell so we didn't share the old man's fate.

Total sleep time: 9 hrs

Dream quality and recall: I continue to be very sleepy, although recall today was a bit better.

WBTB, snooze and recall: Decided against WBTB (lazy), but set the final alarm for a bit earlier. I had what I thought was an interesting dream in the last 30 mins of sleep so kept on hitting the snooze button, and tried to go back there to continue with the story. That messed up my recall a bit, but I still enjoyed it.

Dream1: We are on the street and a friend of mine says something that irritates me. It hit her with a NG magazine. DCs around me stare at me with disapproval. They also think I am a man hitting a woman. A girl from India comes and I begin explaining myself to her.

She starts giving my friend some creepy advice and then continues to say that "you (not sure who she is addressing) should do some lucid meditation, as one learns by leaps and bounds"

"Red and cinnamon are after all two of many (40?) hues....of the penumbra"???

This dream was really cool, but bf was snoring so loudly, I just couldn't hold on to it for more info.

Dream2: A class meeting, girls only this time, all the usual classmates that are DS, but instead of realizing this is a dream I engage in nonsense conversations. One of the classmates is married to a guy that has to do with chicken production and I comment on some movies I have seem about that. Another female friend of mine has a a girlfriend and buys her some lemonade. I feel jealous.

Dream 3(snooze fragmented and mini-Ld):

I am flying over the street and try to avoid a dangerous individual. Other DCs start running very fast when they are close to him.

I am sitting on a table, looking at some food and want to rescue a burrito from ending up in the trash. This guy acts very agressively and does not allow me to get my burrito. I am forced to go with him. (Snooze)

He is dangerous and most likely has killed someone, and the police is after him. Despite all that, I feel some sympathy towards him and we are friends. He wants us to go to his apartment. I have some alarming thoughts of why am I going to his place, and what are we going to do there, but dismiss them. We reach the street where he lives. I suspect undercover cops have parked in front of the place. Doesn't he know that his apartment is the first place the cops will look for him? He sees the lights of his place are on, so we go back. (Snooze)

He decides to highjack a bus so that we can drive to my place. I really don't want us to go there. I am also worried that he is a reckless driver, so go to the back seat. (Snooze)

I am in the bus/car with him and am looking for my burrito, but it seems like I have changed clothes, have a different handbag and the burrito is gone. I take some time to look around, knowing that this is a dream. The story in my mind lasted pretty long and I find it really cool. I think about reporting this dream and contemplate about my feelings for this guy, I conclude I have the Stockholm syndrome...

I wake up

Dream 1(fragment):

I was exploring some city.

Dream 2(fragment):

I was in some mansion-like place and was searching for something, some rooms were using pink color excessively.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing some fighting game, there was rainbow golem character i wanted to get but to get it i needed to activate and protect some color golems. I activated one and it was pretty powerful, dealing with all kinds of enemies easily but one last enemy managed to destroy him right before getting destroyed. I was disappointed and wanted to restart the game but for some reason restart option was missing. Soon i found a way to restart it using some external hardware.

Dream 4(fragments):

I was watching MC UHC game. The map was very small and only four people were playing, also it was premade and there were some kind of stone bunkers some players started in.

Red = Dream
Blue = Lucid

So, my second night of dream recall, I'm feeling good, although I was unable to go to sleep when I tried 'meditating' and telling myself I would lucid dream.

Setting: Supermarket

I'm standing in a supermarket, looking toward a big pile of soft drinks, two teenagers run past saying something along the lines of 'take all you can? Sweet'. They grab two large bottles each. I walk over there, we're another person says something and grabs one. (At this point I realised they were referring to the soft drink being 'free'). I look for the 'sign' saying they are free, but can't find it.

Dream 2:
Setting: Building

I'm in the army, talking to someone who appears to be a friend, we both have a bottle of Cola (can't remember what brand or type of cola, it was just dark). We randomly transition to running in the mud (outside, daytime, raining), we stop and sit in some benches, I go to take a drink of my cola, and we friend freaks, trying to stop me pointing at the 'commander'. So we hide our soft drinks in our shirt, and get up and run. As we turn (we seem to be running through a maze of venches), my friend nicks the bench with his leg, and drops the cola. The commander sees, and the dream ends.

Legend: Dream , Semi-Lucid , Lucid , Side notes.

Watermelons:
Time: logged at about 10:30 AM, around 9-10 hours after falling asleep

Dream Summary: I'm in a metallic hallway, i'm on a space ship. I'm a space marine from the movie "Aliens" and well, we're defending against aliens. We start fighting them off, but they keep coming and my squad starts to back off, i tell them something and they get back in the fight and we win.

The dream scene then changes to a farm, we're on a gravel road, we have a UTV beside us with some gear, my squad is still here with me. We're still on the look out for aliens but it would be no use because our weapons are gone. Anyway,i see a watermelon patch in front of us so i decide to go get one, my squad decides to go get some as well but they start walking the other way. I come back with a watermelon and eat a slice, my squad is gone and probably never coming back.

If i remember correctly, a man comes to assist me and gives me some information on the surrounding area. The only thing i remember after this is i made my way to this rich mans house, he sells furniture. There are people all around his house trying to bid on the furniture he is selling outside. I'm looking around inside his house. The people dress like they are high ranking officials from the middle ages. This guys house also looks somewhat odd and not like i've seen before. The next thing i remember from this is i'm crawling through a tunnel and to a trapdoor under the place on the gravel road i was originally. I think i had a gun in my hand as i climb through, i'm hiding from the rich furniture person. I remember that my goal at the time was to make a watermelon farm and sell them at the local market to earn money.

The next thing i remember is i'm on the UTV waging a war against the people of the town or something like that. And the last thing i remember, i'm landing on a battleship.

My thoughts: I didn't remember much since i logged it so late after i woke up. As a result, a decent amount is missing.

I just got back from our annual house boating/kayaking/camping trip on Lake Powell. I had really wanted a lucid dream while I was out, but we played really hard, and I slept very hard. We were up by 4:30 every morning, which also doesn't help in having LDs since most of my LDs occur after that time when I have a chance to sleep in a bit. I had a few dream fragments. One was about one of my friends from the trip. Two were about Tom DeLonge (apparently I can't get him out of my head). I'm pretty sure others dreams involved kayaking or hiking, but I didn't write any of them down, so they have pretty much all faded.

Now that I'm back I have got to work at doing the Task of the Month.

Yes I had 2 almost identical dreams

1. [non-lucid]
I visited a friend at their house, upon opening the door I was greeted by a 12 year old version of my friend, she was missin a tooth and wore a black shirt, I struggled to enter a little and everything was a shade of blue, for some reason there was a pizza on the kitchen table for me, so I ate it alone and she went off somewhere...I left the crusts. The dream skipped, We are now in her bedroom, she was sat on a chair slighhtly to the left, theres a really old tv to the left on drawers and a bed to the right with really ugly sheets, I decided to fall face first onto the bed...it was comfy. The dream ends

2. [non-lucid]
I visited a friend at their house, upon opening the door I was greeted by my friend, I think she was wearing a blue or green shirt, I could'nt enter that door so we went round to the back door, very strange door was like an escape hatch, was white. I watched as she unscrewed the hatch and took the panel off, I then drove inside into quite a big room which had a few stalls against the walls and a table at the far side of the room in the kitchen area.

Random fragments:
I looked at my hand, I was missing a finger. Not sure if i became lucid because i seem to remember gettin excted and waking up.

Im not sure what the order of these dreams was or whether they were both WBTB or which one wasn't.

Dream 1: I was sitting at the kitchen table. I was holding two carved wood handheld mirrors. There was some sort of demon invasion. I thought my parents were demons and expected their reflections to be scary, but when I saw my day's reflection he looked normal.


Mom said that some woman (mentioned in the news?) was suspect to the demons because she had been promiscuous. I told my mom to stop acting like we're living in the dark ages, and she said to my dad, "See, she's one of them." Or something to that effect.


Dream 2: My sister and I were driving somewhere with one of my parrots. It is nighttime. We were going to some lecture, and on the way to the building C got scared and flew away, but I found her near a trash can and picked her up.

C and I sat in a classroom apart from the large lecture hall where we were supposed to be because I was afraid to lose C. Or rather, that someone would hurt her.

9/6/13

I am at work but it is jll or it is meant to be, there are a lot of differences.
I recall being outside at on stage, I’m told that there are some shops nearby, I found one before but it was Aldi, I was in there looking for something but everything was a mess.

Later in the dream I am told here are other shops nearby, I am in a car park and decide to go and have a look. I am a real estate agent just like I am in real life now. I go hunting for shops and fid a large ramp , the weather in my dream is over cast.

I run up the ramp and notice a sign that says Coles. I preform a RC but the writing remains the same. I enter the shops as I am looking for something In particular. I am told that friend of mine is waiting for me.

Dream 2.
I awoke from dream one a then enter dream 2, sane theme. In this dream I am still told a friend is waiting for me. I have headed back to work, there I receive an award for working hard, he award is tickets to a baseball game, conscious of the fact that we do not have baseball as such in Australia I however go along with it. I am told I can take some friends so I pull out my mobile and call my friend who I waiting for me. It is Michael Leong or it is meant to be. I invite him and he agrees to come.

Dream 3.
Waking again and falling back asleep I am now at mums place however I am still living there. I am cleaning and packing for a long trip that I will be taking. My phone rings and I is my friend asking where I am, it’s now 3 pm and my friend tells me the game has been on for four hours. Something does not feel right about this and I am trying to do the math In my head but I’m finding it very difficult I manage to get the start timeout of my friend as 9 am still the times do not feel right but the times do not change therefore I assume that I am not dreaming. The math was a struggle. I am now rushing to get ready to see the game and my friend.
Dream 4

Re-entering the same them I am now still at mums but the area ha change dramatically. I am now playing some type of game that will allow me to leave and see my friend. I end up winning the game. I do recall that this area of the dream was very dark.

As I have won I am shown a story of my friend holding seats foeme.my friend is now one of the characters from the big bang theory, heist tempting to stop others from sitting in my seat by using chop sticks, and his feet, others are arguing with him, I believe Daniel and Belinda.
The theme shifts and I a m now in a car or watching someone trying to park. We are guiding him where to park and advise heading to the ?4th? lvel, finding a park there he parks. In this area I had been setting up a suit for him to wear. I dress him but warn him one of the shirt I gave him buttons some loose if you make large movements so I advise how to check it. I also recall joinin the pants and the theme was that I was in a rush and that this should have been done before. My friend leaves to a fancy night club after I do up his tie and make him look responsible.

I am in a office building. The ground is carpetd a dark grey with gentle pattern. I do not recall a great deal of the dream other than the fact that someone in front of me falls down. The dreams is dark and becomes slightly shadowed. It is a man, he is slightly over weight wearing a business shirt and I think jeans. I rush forward and check his pulse, none. Quickly I put him in the recovery position and check his air way, clear. Putting him back on his back he is not breathing, I start cpr. I continue this for some time, someone has called for help, I keep pushing forward with the cpr but there is no response.
Soon help arrives and the man is picked up by the ambos. I am angry and frustrated that there was no response. The man is taken down an elevator from the sixth floor, as soon as he reaches the first floor his pule starts back up.

! A relieved and for some reason that I do not recall I have to head down the lift as well. As I travel own I hit the first floor and there is a pulse of energy that waves through us and then passes. The lift is light enough with walls that are made out of glass, I a in the lift with another man, he seems to be a guide of mine but is here to watch and see what happens. Nothing more. I awake before I hit the ground floor.

Nb. The dream was more than a dream, I w testing out skills, one that I spoke to Lisa about a few days ago so it was interesting to see the skills be used in the correct manor and that I was able to recall them.

It was a zombie apocalypse situation and the entire dream took place mostly either in the early morning are afternoon. Either way It was extremely cloudy and gloomy. I don't remember many details except for that our survivor's hideout was a big, square building with metal 'pull' doors. I remember laughing at the simple genius of it as the zombies were to dumb to stop and pull on a door. Instead they just pressed up against it and banged on it. Although there was talk of more survivors the only people I actually saw were my older brother and an old guy with a white beard. He was a pretty grumpy guy and he would shout commands even when I'd told him repeatedly to be quite as his noise would attract more of the zombombos. One thing that was strange that I probably should have picked up on was how much like a video game it was. I fired a shotgun but experienced no recoil, and every time I ran towards an entrance everything would freeze for a moment then I'd appear inside the building without actually having to walk through a door. Having attracted the mass undead hordes with his shouting the old guy and my brother began to prepare to pack and leave the hideout while I gathered supplies. The last thing I remember was being told that there was not enough room on board for my computer. This saddened me so I uploaded all of my music to an Ipod I'd found in the hideout but as I stepped outside there were zombies running towards us in all directions so I abandoned the Ipod and my computer and hopped on the back of one of the trucks.

I had a dream that I was walking around completely fine like I was myself, but then I looked into a mirror and I come to find out I was somebody else. Although I was someone else I was happier being that person than myself. I still sounded like myself and everything just the appearance was different. I also don't know who that person is.

Length: ~1 hour
Type: Non-lucid

My memory is foggy on this one, so bear with me.
I started off looking at Saturn with a couple moons in the sky. I was on the surface of some jungley planet. I was looking up, then a fireball flied past me. I heard someone say "I should make that part of the game" I was confused.
(memory blindness)
I went to 3rd person and I realized I was playing Spore! I was traveling along with some other weird creature.
(memory blindness)
My mind sort of replayed the first half of me looking at Saturn.
(memory blindness)
I woke up with a crink in my neck. I then realized I had that exact same pain in the dream.

Notes: I had drank apple juice (due to many people saying that helped dream recall) before bed.

Length: ~5 min
Type: Non-lucid

I was eating breakfast (Banana nut muffin with two eggs) when I looked out the window and realized it was snowing. I told my brother. My mom then got mad at him for reasons I will not disclose. I went outside with my brother and we went sledding. He was suited up in a coat and everything, and I just had a dinky T-shirt on. He pointed that out and I said that it was too much trouble to suit up. I threw myself onto the snow, then once I touched it I woke up.

After waking up, I realized it was summer.
