Non-Lucid Dreams
In this dream I was a male member of a software development team. I remember I was a white man, tall and skinny and strong. I don't know what our application was supposed to do, but there was an email component. The developer of the email component was I think a subcontractor of a different company, and the lead of our project wanted to exclude him as much as possible. First scene was like a demo, and during the demo the email developer figured out how to make things visible in 3D and in color. the lead resented this even though these were crucial developments in our project but she did not like that this was him who figured it out. Second scene, we are in our work area and our lead is telling the email developer that he cannot come to another meeting. I say to the lead, "You cannot exclude a member of the team and remain a member of the team, especially not after what he has done!" I bodily lift the team lead up. She is a petite woman. I sit her on a desk, and jab a finger in her chest to make the point. Then I suddenly get the insight, "Hey, I guess that means you are not a member of this team. Out!" And I point to the door behind me. She says, "You can't do that. I am the boss." And I say, "Yes, I can. And no, you are not. He is." I just know without looking that our boss who is her boss and everyone else's is in the doorway behind me. Will he support her or me? I wonder. I never find out because I wake up instead. Side note: Even though this dream was non-lucid it had this powerful moment of insight, where I felt empowered. this dram is inconsistent in that I say that one can't exclude a team member, but I exclude her.

Last night's dream was a sad one for me. Took me a few moments after waking up to realize it didn't actually happen. I was hanging out in my old middle school for whatever reason. All of a sudden, I noticed my girlfriend outside of the door in the hallway, being insulted by some guy. Obviously angry, I stormed out there and beat the guy up, telling him to never disrespect her ever again. Afterwards, my girlfriend and I wandered off. As we passed by more people in the school, she decided to run ahead of me and hang out with them instead. So, naturally, I started feeling as if she was mad at me. I eventually asked her about this. "Are you mad at me about beating up that kid? I'm sorry." She shook her head and said it wasn't that. I asked what it was. At this point, I can't remember what we discussed, but I do remember it ending with us standing by a poolside, me begging her to forgive me about something, and her splashing me with water and running away. Woke up afterwards with a sad feeling, only to realize it was just a dream.
Have to be quick so I'll leave out the details. #1 I'm an extra in a play. Something about number coded items. I'm wearing some robe. My part is not speaking but I pretend to have a funny conversation with someone. #2 I am camping with RR and full into different campsites the they are disappointing because the look like putting a tent in a parking lot. #3 My back yard is flooded and water is coming up to the deck. I start looking at river rocks and find loose change. Dimes and quarters. Then a dollar on the deck. I think all this is really cool. #4 I am driving and see a horrible car crash. One car is on its top and burning. There is a child in it. Suddenly my car crashes but I'm ok. I try to call 911 but my cell doesn't work. I run to a house and use an old corded land line. I have a conversation with them and I am crying. I go back and show my wife where it all was but it looks like a strange basement. It was very emotional. #5 My son has to go to the doctor right away for something I'm concerned about in waking life. #6 We decide to trade our new car in for something else. The dealer asks me how much I own and I am amazed at how upside down we are.
A very common dream sign of mine is the mushroom. Whether it is growing in an unusual quantity or off the branches of trees like leaves, I must learn to recognize this oddity as a dream sign inside the dream. Last night I dreamed that I was walking on the side of a river, the place looks familiar but is a little different. I think I have visited this spot previously in another dream. It was looking at the various types of mushrooms growing there, all of them not really out of the ordinary. Then I come across a little patch of mushrooms growing out of the fork of a tree. They were the most vibrant shade of red I have ever seen and gave off a slight glow. Looking closer at them, I see that there are small crystals growing on the caps and are giving off a low, barely audible, humming sound. As I sat there looking at these mushrooms, I hear a growl beyond the tree line. Suddenly, a troll-like creature bursts from the undergrowth and starts charging towards me. I fall backwards, abruptly waking up with a dull ache in my head. Maybe they were the troll's special prize and I was encroaching upon his territory? I cannot make any sense out of it apart from that. What does this dream tell me? I don't think I will ever know, but that isn't too bad of a thing.
Gentlemen's Class My school had some kind of program for boys who didn't have dates for the prom. It was supposed to teach you how to act when you have a girlfriend and how to treat her. The class was taking place outside of an auto parts store in my town. The teacher (who was actually my current math teacher) told us that we all had to take off our jackets and lay them down so that our girlfriend could walk over them. (Real life notes. I've never been interested in getting a girlfriend. Really. Never. I had a crush on this one girl but the girl I liked moved away a few months ago and that was the end of it. I never had the guts to ask her out.) Anyways. I started talking with this younger boy with black curly hair. We talked about how this class was kind of pointless because most of the people here weren't even interested in getting into a romantic relationship. My friend's dad died. I was in my own neighborhood, talking with someone. We were walking down the center street of the subdivision while talking. I can't really remember what we were talking about. When we got to the end of the block, we found that one house had this huge party going there. When I came closer, I was explained that the party was actually a funeral for my friend's father. Now I can't remember the specifics of any of the dream characters here. The dream was very blurry. I can't remember who I was talking to on my way down the block, or which of my friends' fathers had died. I shied away from the party and started walking back down the path toward my house. Another faceless dream character came by my side. The three of us started talking about life and things. WILD experience. It was about 3:00 am when I did this. I can't remember the details of being in SP, or if I even was in SP. I just remember that I started thinking about school, and slowly a dream about school formed around me. I was walking down the hallways. I did a nose plug reality check, but I did it without really paying attention, and didn't become lucid. Dream characters to the rescue! Someone behind me reminded me to pay attention when I did my reality check. I did the nose plug again. I noticed this time that I could breathe. I continued down the hallway, but the dream was very blurry, and my lucidity was not very clear. Just like in the last dream, everyone was a faceless dream character. I can't even remember the specifics of the stabilization techniques that I employed. I slipped out of lucidity nonetheless and went to class. I woke up after the WILD experience about half an hour later in real time. I tried to WILD again while maintaining lucidity. It was unsuccessful.

Pre bed: Green tea Total sleep time: 9 hrs Dream quality and recall: went to bed very late, deep sleep tonight, and recall was hard. I have been trying to recall the whole first dream all day long but with little success. Fragment1 DILD: I am looking at a male person, concentrating on top of their head. I see a second more transparent double layer shining with color, I am so aware, lucid is an understatement. I get a great sense of understanding. There is a discussion and feelings of happiness from my side. I am also talking with PennyRoyal, he is one of my good buddies in the dream. It was very vivid, but I don't have much recall. My key impressions are positive feelings, knowledge and understanding. This was my first memorable REM or Non-REM? for the night. Fragment2: Me and somebody else are about to catch a small plane. We are in front of a very small airport, but we need to get to the other part of the airport, we are looking at a map of the area. brief natural wake, had the idea of writing down the previous dreams but was way too tired, thought I would remember it, so went back to sleep Fragment3: FA, I wake up in my bed, grab the tablet and start writing down the dream with Penny. My bf is near me, watching what I have typed, I stop writing, I wake up. WBTB: I wake up, this time jot down keywords, and spend 10 mins struggling to remember more of the dream. Reviewed tasks, but had the feeling this will be it for today. Dream4: We are in some place with my bf with a blond guy, resembling a former classmate. While he is a total stranger, but my bf doesn't mind him spending the evening with us. We talk for a long time, he is slightly arrogant. The guy decides it's time to leave so he jumps from a bridge. I watch him vanish in the air instead of falling in the water. Fragment5: Another attempt to remember the dream with Penny, but I am trying to recall during the dream itself. This time I see a water in front of me, it is a waterfall. I think the dream with Penny might have included Angel Falls, also get some feeling of happiness, yet cannot remember more even during the dream. Fragment6: A new thread started by Xanos Dream7: I am with my parents in a familiar place. I have the feeling this is the second dream in that place for today. We talk about something with my mom, and I decide to go to another room. I then go out. I feel much better now, by myself, on the street, there is a fence and obviously a zoo. A lot of people are there, I join them. I see a polar bear cub, and that people are actually going beyond the fence. I want to go to where the cub is so I also cross over and am inside the section with the animals. I look to the other side and see now a brown bear cub, it is on its back, drinking a bottle of coke. I am with a friend of mine and I tell her that the zoo keepers will think that we gave the drink to the bear and be angry with us. I try to take the bottle of coke away from the bear, but I am taking its food, it is stressed now. I am afraid of its mother, which is a much larger polar bear. We are sitting on a couch with some DCs, when the mother bear comes. I try to think of a plan to escape, without attracting her attention. I think at that point she transforms into a DC, conveys the message that she wants us to leave her territory, so I ask the DCs that we go. They get up, we are leaving, and the mother bear DC is grateful. Comments: It's been three days in a row that I have been dreaming animals, it is high time I begin to recognize this as a dream sign! Also, upon waking up don't forget to at least count fingers or do any RC, to take advantage of those FAs.

Accidentally fallen asleep while recalling, so eh. Dream 1(fragment): I was browsing dreamviews and there was some sort of discussion Dream 2(fragments): I was playing some video game(I think FPS) and i recall some blue-ish level
I lived in a tribal area with a large family. I know that we lived at the foot of a huge mountain, and that we might have lived in tan-colored tents. Something was threatening us, I think it was a guy that wasn't human (dark hair, I think). My job was to go up the mountain and stop him, although I can't remember what he was doing wrong. I remember climbing up a snowy mountainside with my servant. It was very steep, and tough to not slide. I remember catching bugs and finding plants to eat. I was constantly worried that we would starve or not be able to find shelter. We came upon an abandoned house on the mountain, had been white but was now green with mold and moss. It had a very creepy air so we kept on moving. The mountain had this spiral 'stairway' that was constantly moving. My servant and I had reached the stairway and were staring at it as it descended below us to a point that we couldn't see. There was a digital clock with red letters above the stairway that I think said 4:20. It told us how long it'd take for us to make it to the top of the mountain if we started now. We decided to wait for a while, because we wouldn't have to walk as far if we waited until the mountain had descended a little. We used materials that we found to make a shelter, and at this point others joined us. I remember seeing a big sheet of metal that I think we used as a roof. At one point we went and checked the clock again, but decided to wait when we saw that it still had two hours left. Fragment: There was a radio or old TV that someone got very angry over and accused another person of stealing. I remember seeing someone carrying an armload of supplies. I was very busy. We finally did come back down the mountain. I remember running on my hands like some animals, but going really fast. I remember seeing a tree that was growing like a huge corkscrew, but was like Jack and the Beanstalk because it was still growing. My dad met me at the bottom of the mountain. At this point I felt like I had been chasing someone, and that they had escape up the spiral tree.
Sunday 5/19/13 Last night bed 11:30pm - 5:50am Had some dreams before. I think related to Burned Notice Marathon I was watching IWL. Got up to potty after 4am. Woke up from a long and detailed non-lucid and DILD at 5:50 am. Non-lucid DR: I'm sleeping in my room in NZ. I can hear through the wall some girls talking shit about me. Taunting me. I know they don't live there. As I ley there, I can see my balcony through the courtains. It's dark outside. We have a common balcony with the neighbour, but it's separated by a wall. Now I see some movement at the separator. At that moment, I can feel her on my back and hear her. I ask her how she got there and try to squirm away. The touch on my back is uncomfortable. Later on I walk over to the neighbor. Now it's not an apartment anymore, but a huge, 2 story house. Very bright, lots of light, white walls. I want to talk to the lady, but we are expecting intruders. She arms the alarm so we can hear them come. I look for weapons and decide on some fireplace tools. I'm tryin to secure the sliding door. I look outside, and there is a guy charging up the hill towards us. But a goat that's grazing there attacks him. He runs away. Then the girls are coming up the stairs and I stand at the top waiting for them. As soon as I see the first one, I start dropping chairs at them. A little boy is there and I'm sending him away from danger, but he wants to help. DILD: Now I'm someplace else. Looks like a tiny factory control room. I'm telling someone that if I can do something, I will get lucid. I start to lift off and I get lucid. I immediatelly turn left on the metal corridor and walk out the door. I stand on top of the exterior metal stairway, that goes on the side of a huge, barn shaped metal building. I grip the metal rail and note how cold and smooth it is. I exlaim 'how beautiful". Lady next to me asks "really?". I keep touching the rail and I lean over to touch the wall to stabilize, but i don't want to think about it too much. To my left are some sheep in a pen, all huddled together. Grass is nice and green and I'm thinking I'm in Australia or New Zealand. I ask "where is the ocean?" and look in the direction behind the building. There it is. Dark blue waves breaking on the beach. I walk down the long stairs. I keep walking and Halle Berry walks by pushing a stroller. There are three guys that look like they are down on their luck. I ask them "was that hally berry?" and one of them says "nope, it was [?]. I don't remember the name, but he repeated it a few times. Guys are sitting underneath a tarp. Like a big tent, but it has only the roof. Behind them is a gift shop full of slovak hockey shirts and other slovak mamorabilia. I hear Olympic anthem played in the distance, in the large building. I ask the shopkeeper "olympic games?" I keep walking (decided to walk and not fly) on the dirt and patchy grass road. I end up in some town. I think it's NZ, but only because of the layout and I can orient myself. But houses are completely different. Almost alien like. Small, crammed next to each other, no space between them. Lots of people on the street. They seem to be shorter in average. I look to my left and I see a synagogue. It's dark and ominous. Behing it is a humongous memorial statue. It scares me, it's so huge. I look up and it goes high to the sky. I remember that I rarely look ap to the skies in LDs. So I look up, expecting to see something enexpected, something cool. But all there is are some white clouds on otherwise clear skies. I start walking to the right. I keep saying "my guide, if you are present, I'm asking for your help. Only entities with my or above my level of development may be here". (Interesting, that I remembered to call my guide and to remember the phrase of protection from WL) (I decided it's time to meet my guide. Not the dream guide, but the spirit guide. What I forgot, was that you don't call him directly. I should have just have a thought "it would be nice to have help with... But I didn't really needed help. I want to ask for help in learning to navigate in the astral, so I remember that for next time) As I'm walking, I feel something big coming from ahead, but I can't see because of the bend in the road. But the small man with beards start closing their small wooden doors. I try to walk into one for protection, but too late. The door is shut. I make a step back to another door, which I feel is closing too. But as I turn and walk up the 3 small cement steps, I see that it's opened. There is a string from door to the wall. I guess a pull-string for closing the door. Now the owner is there. Small guy. Can't see his face clearly, but when he walks inside through second door, I see something grey on side of his face. I thought its a beard, but it looks more like some desease. I sit down right behind the door, in a small and narrow ante-room. The guys goes inside the house. The doors are all wooden, arched at the top. Suddenly I'm inside. It looks guite modern. I sit on a chair in front of a coffee table. The guy is opposite to me. He eats chinese takeout. What he doesn't finishes, he pushes over to my plate, even when I protest. I try to speak chinese to him and I'm not sure if he understands me. But after dinner he speaks to me in my language, but I have no idea which one is it. Feels like it was some kind of a test, since he first didn't speak to me and pretended not to speak my language. I tried for a DEILD, but nothing happened. Didn't really wanna get up to write this down, but I'm glad I did. Everything was very clear, not foggy at all. Afternoon nap WILD I'm coming in and out of sleep. I'm seeing this very, very colorful ice rink. Yellows and reds and whites. Or maybe it's a basketball court, like Lakers. it's coming closer to me and I say "I am there". I was almost lucid even before I said it, but lost it all as soon as I approached.

Dream recall from today's naps, got lucid at the end of REM again i think. Dream 1(fragment): I recall some indoor place and some talk. Dream 2(fragment): I wake up in my bed(the room looked almost exactly the same as in waking life), get up and walk around the room(Forgot to reality check ), then i wake up again, and i spontaneously realize that i am dreaming, but i wake up again, this time properly.

1:30am Fragment: Victorian Loose Woman Getting Drunk Disclaimer: Both the drinking and the promiscuity is completely out of character for me, but I was not myself, so ... I was not my self. This was set in the Victorian era. I had the sense that I was a fairly loose woman who had been with many men. in this scene I was in some sort of formal room with two finely dressed gentlemen. We had known each other before, but had lost track of one another, but had recently become reacquainted. One of the gentlemen was pouring vast quantities of alcohol from a bottle into my mouth, and I was drinking it up eagerly. I knew that I was going to have sex with both of them soon after, and I was becoming very aroused in anticipation. Failed WBTB attempt: 2:15am WBTB intension - plan for next lucid dream: I will go back to sleep in a few minutes. I will remember to realize that I am dreaming. Is this a dream. When I become lucid, I will reality check and focus on my hands to stabilize, then I will get chocolate from my pocket and eat it. I will then turn around, find a door, know the Taj Mahal is on the other side, open the door, and then I will fly to the Taj Mahal or through it and out of it if I find myself in it when I step through the door. Result: No lucid, just the following fragment. Another fragment: work database related 6:30am I remember dreaming of a sample database. Also some questioning by my boss of how much it would cost DBAs to check who used the system when, and DBAS responded that it depends on whether the most competent DBA is given the task or the most incompetent that the price will be different. Second failed WBTB This time all I did was write down the above fragment, and go to bathroom,and will try to WILD in a moment. Result: Couldn't fall asleep for a while but when I did, all I got was the following fragment. Fragment: if delete something, would help dream? ok this fragment was either confusing computer and mind or using computer as analogy for mind. It suggested that if only I could delete something (don't remember what), is would help with my dreaming effort somehow.

I dreamt that i was at a farm and there were some very ornate wooden chicken hutches. I walked over to get a closer look, when suddenly i realised i was surrounded by hundreds of tiny little chickens, each no bigger than a piece of popcorn. I noticed that i had already been standing on them and i became very distressed. It seemed like they were magnetised to my feet and masses of these tiny little fluffballs crowded around me. As i tried to walk away i kept standing on more and more of them and they made this horrible crunching noise every time i took a step. i felt really bad!
Lot of recall today. Dream 1: I was browsing dreamviews and there was something about some kind of spirits, and about how to contact the spirit of oneself and use it. Then i was teaming up with the spirit and exploring various 'Spiritual Locations', which included some locations in forest park and near my home. There were alot of pigeons in locations. Then i was looking at melanieb's house(Haven't seen IWL) and somebody was explaining that she has problem with some stuff in life, and that that causes the problems to her spirit as well. I was seeing her as well but she looked more like her forum avatar, but sad. Then i was visiting some kind of spirit school, which looked rather cartoon-ish and rather empty. There was an explanation that it is possible to train the spirit here and gain some powers from that, but it's also possible to lose it completely. There were special backpacks to pick and they all had different properties. Someone also told me that melanieb will be fine. Then later i was on some kind of hill with pillars, hiding behind pillars and spying on somebody. Dream 2(fragments): I was playing someone's creations in Fraxy, it was semi-3D and there was some kind of double boss that looked like chains of some kind. Then there was another boss that was very quick. Later i decided to make a stage for those. Dream 3(fragments): The global cataclysm of some kind was announced and i was doing some research on that. Then i was on some kind of robot making facility and there was also something about robots. I was talking to someone about buying planets and there was response at some point "Buying a planet and living there will not be worth it". And later i exited the building and the landscape was like different planet, it was mostly grey and there were random small junkyards around. Dream 4: I was playing some RPG game with SilentEternity, we had a bit of problems with connection due to the fact that to run the game we needed to launch it through some MMX site. Then when we finally successfully ran the game, we started in a forest. There were various enemies that we had to fight and continued exploring further. At some points game was switching to 2D and was turning into platformer. Soon we have found a portal. After getting through portal, we found ourselves in an huge open area and there were a few vehicles we could use. At first i selected some quick vehicle(can't recall exactly what) and was exploring the map. Apparently our mission was to take out a few enemy bases. A couple of bases were to the north from the vehicle depot on a small hill and another base was to the east, behind a mountain, but there was a road leading there in the south part of the area. Enemies were using various vehicles, i recall WW2 tanks, some more modern tanks, M60 tank and some weird futuristic tank. Eventually my quick vehicle got shot down and i had to return to vehicle depot to get another one. My choice was a tank that looked like M1A1, but upgraded with various weapons and stuff. Can't recall what SilentEternity was using but i recall he was using a vehicle only half of time. After some time we took out the northern and the eastern bases, my tank was quite damaged but overall still enough health to continue. The only area that we haven't touched was area at the west, and for a reason. We were separated from that area by lake, and the only way was through the bridge, that looked like really broken train. We started crossing but it was a bit problematic to get tank through there, i was not even sure how i did it but i had to enter/exit vehicle alot of times. SilentEternity couldn't get his vehicle through so he was helping on-foot. We were almost near the end of the "bridge", but then game started lagging horribly. I asked about that on dreamviews chat and somebody said that i should decrease network focus on dreamviews. I looked at dreamviews and my "network focus" slider was at 75%-ish, i decrease it to 15% or so and the game stopped lagging. Back in the game, we finally crossed the "bridge" and there was a bunch of enemies already waiting for us. After a bit of combat my tank was pretty low on health, but i was still trying to destroy the enemies. Then a boss enemy tank appeared, stronger than the others. We continued the battle, i was using terrain and alot of homing missiles to minimize damage taken, but soon my tank was extremely low on health anyway. I started moving into the lake while dodging enemy projectiles and using homing missiles, soon i was completely underwater. I was surprised to discover that my tank can actually move faster underwater and can use a turbo boost, tank's health was on like 1% though. Dodging enemy fire was easy now though and i was about to exit the lake near the center of the map, but suddenly game glitched out. We talked on skype with SilentEternity about what happened, apparently the site that was managing the connection was down. Shortly we were back in the game, but i started back at the vehicle depot because apparently enemy managed to shot down my tank while i was not in game. I was disappointed so we decided that next time we will not use that site and instead use some other site. Also we reviewed the logs and it was nice to know that the boss was destroyed.
Total sleep time: 7 hrs WBTB: 1/2 cup matcha tea, almost out of it Fragment1: A former classmate and something strange about his shoes Natural wake, decide to use it as WBTB, drink some tea, total duration (7mins), was nicely tired and almost falling asleep but then it became too noisy outside, and also got a text message, so inappropriate for Saturday morning...insomnia for like an hour followed. Dream2: In a familiar town, I am on the tram, the door is open, and I see an unpleasant ex-neighbor. She is running after the tram, trying to get on it, she also holds a cup of coffee. I try to help her, taking the coffee so she runs easier, but it spills. She gets angry and spills the rest of the coffee on me, decides not to get on the tram. There is another tram in front of us, facing the opposite direction. I look back inside, and examine myself, I wonder if I should change my clothes, but decide against it. People around are looking at me but with understanding, I was trying to help after all. Dream3: I am in my room, I have something like a small terrarium with mice inside. It also had a lid, and the lid is gone now, a few mini mice jump out of there. I try to catch them and eventually succeed. I am slightly worried about catching a disease from the mice, so decide to wash them first, then put them back in this thing. It changes to a real terrarium and the mice are now guinea pigs. I think about feeding them, what do they eat, do I need to clean anything after them, ect. I look at a desk which on the wrong place, and see something like a bigger guinea pig, a bit more like a grey rabbit now. It seems that have escaped once again...I also notice a grey stuffed elephant and wonder where it came from, I come up with some fake memory that it is from my bf. Fragment4: A very realistic FA, I am in our corridor, I hear the sound of running water, go to the bathroom and see the water is on. I become very concerned that I have forgotten it, water running all night long. ( This felt so real, and I was so sleepy, I am slightly questioning whether this happened irl, but most likely not because I didn't hear it during WBTB, crazy!) Fragment5&6: FAx2, I wake up in the dream, go the restroom to pee. Looking a slightly different but very realistic each time, I wake up in my real bed. Then again. (Note for competition, while this is the whole dream, because it is short, I put it as fragment) Comment: That was a bit strange, but also cool, I don't get many FAs. The tea is to blame, my bladder really was full. Fragment7: The principal is cleaning up some of his things. I also participate, I see an old barbecue part that I want to throw away and some jars full of pickles, and one with minced meat that looked terrible. Fragment8: My grandma is wearing a strange outfit, trying to gather things from trees. She tells me that my aunt wants to come by and sunbathe with us. I had other plans, but whatever. Fragment9: A friend of mine and me are discussing clothes, he proposes that I go to a certain store, I have already been there, found nothing of interest. Fragment10: I am finishing a cup of chocolate and look at the bottom. There is a chunk of cookie dough there, I wonder for a bit about it. Goal for the rest of the day: I must DO ten RCs today, plus ADA (at least!)

Well, it started out fairly normal, but I can't remember that part very well. I remember being tweeted by someone important, but it was like a pin, and not even on my phone xD But eventually, my family and I were going to this restaurant. When we were walking in, everyone was staring at us and making rude comments about me. My family seemed totally oblivious to this fact, and continued on. We got to a table, and there was only enough chairs for three people, and I didn't have one. Everyone was still making fun of me, so I ran out of the restaurant crying, and went into the car. I was sitting there for a while crying before my dad came out. I had my window open, and he was talking to me. Meanwhile, I was looking at posters on the wall in front of the car. There was some weird comic strip that was creepy and demonic, it scared me, but I told myself it wasn't real, and continued looking at it. then there was a picture of a bunch of dead people behind a curtain, and on a picture next to it, there was no one there, and under both pictures it said "Was this HI?" I don't know why, but that kinda scared me, too. So, once again I told myself it wasn't real, and it changed. This time, it had a picture of a man wearing a light greenish-brown trench coat, and said "Have you seen this man?" and went on to say how he was a serial killer. I looked over at my dad, and the man was walking up behind him, I yelled "Dad" trying to make him turn around, but not in time. The man came up behind him and stabbed him in the back, and left, so i was in the car, with my dad dead, leaning against it. I was horrified, and told myself that it wasn't real. I could have undid that, and had my dad back alive, but I couldn't shake the feeling of shock and horror that I was feeling so I kept saying to myself "I have to wake up. I have to wake up." eventually I saw my room, but I knew it was a false awakening (idk how i knew, I just always seem to know xD) So, I closed my eyes as if i were trying to go back to sleep, and when everything went black, i woke up for real. and once again this was one of those dreams that I've had before (minus the random part at the beginning) ...whatever goes on in my head, I don't know.
