non-lucid

Sparring

I meet up with an old friend from high school for the first time in a while. I pretend to do some Tae Kwon Do moves at him, and suddenly he counterattacks while saying some words that I recognize from the dojang. "Where did you get those words??" I ask incredulously. He must have taken up TKD! We continue sparring for a little while. I am reminded of something my instructor once said: "Think of sparring as a way of saying hi to your partner."

Confidence

Someone is supposedly fated to slay a terrible dragon. But the person is a staunch supporter of free will, and hence has trouble believing in something like fate. So ze is very unconfident about the prospect of fighting this dragon, which clearly hurts zir chances of succeeding. [I don't recall whether this person was me, or somebody else.]

I Quit (8:00)

I'm at a sports club, where we're doing our warm-up workout outside. The current exercise involves teams of three. We lock arms in a specific way, then take turns trying to lift the people on our left and right using our core muscles. I'm the last person in our group to do it, so I wasn't expecting it to be as hard as it is. I try it once--try it twice--and then give up. With hardly a goodbye, I walk back towards the locker room to change and go home.

On the way is a swimming pool, and I accidentally trip and fall into it. At the last moment I remember that my shoes are muddy, and I hook my legs over the side of the pool so I'm hanging upside down from the edge. That way, the water stays clean.

After I pull myself back out, the club's head instructor is standing on the other side of the pool, looking at me. He commends me for my civic responsibility in keeping the mud out of the water, and as a reward, he says he's willing to overlook my embarrassing decision to quit the club. "We're back together," he says, and it's clear he's enjoying the double entendre. This guy seems kind of like a sleaze-bag, and I don't think I want back into the club. I throw an apple core at him and go into the locker room.

Inside, there are some students practicing Apparition. It makes me sorry to realize I'll never get a chance to learn it, now. The trick has something to do with having complete faith that when you turn around, you'll be looking at the new location; I never quite got the hang of it. Oh well.

I look over towards the secret door, which I also never figured out how to open. Then I see there's some kind of locking mechanism in the upper right corner. It's moving around, which must mean someone is trying to come through the door. Probably the head instructor trying to talk to me again.

Indeed, it is him. As soon as the door opens, we start fighting. It's a mix of Tae Kwon Do sparring and a knife fight. We end up back outside, advancing and retreating and circling around one another. I'm rather proud of myself for being able to deflect all of his attacks.

I am joined by a team of fighters on roller blades. They are part of a resistance group that has an ongoing feud with the sports club. Sensing my opportunity to cut ties with this place, I go with them when they leave.

~ 6 am

I am in a parade. We were carrying some sort of banner. I think FF was right behind us. They had cosplayers, one in particular that has the long, blond hair of Naruto, but it's a flaming gay. They also had a banner, which reminded me of our banner. I asked the person beside me if it wasn't ours.

I was talking to someone about work or study. I think it was Joerome. He needs to rent a dorm in a nearby city if he wants to work or study in some place. I think Silay came to mind.

~ 7 pm: sleep
~ 10 pm: wakeup

Buying on a boat. There were two options, but in one boat, I was already eating rice before I even knew what I was doing, so I decided to buy food there.

I am some sort of demon. I killed off some people. Some innocent, some are not. There was a housewife. I think I killed her husband. I killed more people in a room. Their weapons just go through me. There's one burly kid who's very persistent. No matter how much I shoot him, he comes back and holds me back, trying to protect others from him. I told him I'll remember his bravery, though it is pointless. He has some sort of sharp things on his body to hold me back. It traps me somehow.

I was in a plaza in our hometown. I was talking to a sea man. He needs to go out early because of some punishment. Lateness or absense, I think. Or no uniform? The number 50. He gave me an airplane toy. I was holding the bamboo-framed kite-like airplane. I used it to jump and attempt to fly, but the plastic is right in front of me, and there's only a small hole that I can see through. I would loved to use it to travel the world. I sense mom is coming from the direction of our house.

Edit:

Upon going online, I saw news of a hideous massacre by ONE man that included "innocents." Even freakier is that the event happened around an hour after I woke up from my "killing spree" dream.

I was walking down a hallway at my school with one of my friends that used to be my best friend and is a male and a girl I use to be good friends with two years ago. Both my friends were going to a class called "Brit Lit" while I was going to a class called "AP IV", so we said goodbye and we parted ways. When I got into my class the girl I was walking with before was there strangely enough and stood by her. The class was about dreams (still didn't get me lucid :/), although AP IV is supposed to be an english class. There was a memory gap in my dream or something, because next thing I can remember I was sitting on a bus with the same girl and we were talking. I remembering the girl joking to someone else one the bus how she had sex with me before, and at one point she also was on top of me. Apparently the bus was planning on going back to school I was at previously, and when the bus arrived at the school there were all these gunmen shooting people and causing chaos. So me and the girl ran off the bus and tried to escape the gun men, every time we thought we escaped them they would find us, so we would keep running. Eventually we found this shack that was safe from the gunmen, it was a small sized shack that was right next to a body of water. In order to make sure we were safe from the gunmen, the girl I was with would wait in the shack and keep a lookout, while I was hiding in the lake next to the shack. I remember while I was in the body of water, my clothes fell of and all my possessions started falling through the water and I swam after them. Right when I was about to grab my phone I woke up, but not back to reality, I woke up in the dream into another dream. In this dream I was with one of my best friends I have now and the same girl. I was trying to convince the girl and my friend that I was just in dream with the girl, but the girl wouldn't believe and either did my other friend. No matter how much I tried they wouldn't believe me, and they started to mock me too. I was very frustrated about this and not soon after I woke up, this time into reality.

Overall I liked the dream a lot because it was very elaborate but one thing that was strange about it was when I woke up from the dream, and I remembered the part of the dream where I was at the shack, thinking about it really creeped me out, it almost seemed like a horror movie.

Dream 1: Bomb
I forgot my whole dream. I just remember that There is a War going on. And something about Pocket and a Bomb in a Tiffen.

Dream 2: Video Print
I am in my painting classroom before lecture. This classroom was known in dream but in reality I havnt seen this class. With me I have my 3 friends. Kashif, Aini and one other guy. I am showing them a video. The other guy came to me and asked me to show that video to him also. And lecture was also started so I denied to show. He said "Please give me the printouts of that video I will watch it at home. and me any my friends start laughing on him."

Dream 3: Accident
My girl friend has an accident. It is about any Market.

Dream 4: Robot Spider
One robot spider attacked on me.

Dream 5: CNG
CNG of my car was finished and I was having problem. I was not able to convert my car from CNG to petrol. A police man asked me for lift.

Dream 6: Kidnapping
I am with my mother at a hospital. I came out for some breath. There is a woman looking to me. she comes to me and saying are you done with doctor? I said "Yes". She said come with me to the next corner. I am thinking that she want me to fuck her. But When I reached there She started pressing a handkerchief with full of chemicle. She is trying to kidnap me. But I got success in saving my self.

I had a non lucid where 2 girlfriends of mine who were lovers, adopted a baby. Either that or one of them got artificially inseminated, can't remember. Anyway, one of the girls bailed on the other, leaving her alone to raise the baby. So I moved in with her to help. I was basically the "dad" of the relationship, since I was the one working. Not meaning to sound sexist, that was just how the dream felt. Something looked wrong in the baby's eyes, so we took her to the doctor. He told us she had a brain tumor and they would have to operate. I felt like someone had torn out my stomach. I was raising this child as my own, so I felt like my life was over if she died. The tumor was right behind her eyes, so they were going to have to go in through her eyes somehow. I had a chair and table by the window, with a phone and little potted plant. I just sat there all day long, waiting to get updates on the surgery. I was too afraid to get up to take a shower, in fear of missing a call.

Woke up with a bad emotional hangover.

Achilles' Heel Repetition (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm with a group of females, and all I remember for this one is that we had to use random white shaped forms of material to make a spear or something.

The person we had to give it too at a parking lot told us that Achilles' Heel must be repeated for us to get the right answer.

I didn't know what he meant by that, but this blonde female who was part of my team comes in and gets a marker. She writes on the object and did something to get us the right answer.

Achilles' Heel, that must be repeated for us to get the right answer is confusing me.

I know it's a sign, and it's fairly new dream sign. I do feel kind of weak right now with this flu/cold I'm trying to get out of. But it could be the same person that I'm so afraid of in waking life that makes me so weak

I'm with my friend Kolby as we're in some giant waterpark that's based in the middle of an ocean. We believe this is beachweek and there are 100s of people in this place including life guards. I go down some slide that is more of a ramp into the clear water. I look down to the bottom to see an interesting coral reef and I start to think this is paradise. Kolby's brother (shawyn) walks by with his group of older college student friends and I nod my head to him. Suddenly, the lifeguards start grabbing kids and screaming at them to show I.D. that they are 21. Kolby and I exchange glances then run to what seems like a call of duty map. Now him and I believe we are just leaving school from a long day. It is crowded on this bridge, so I shove some underclassmen out of my way. Then I see a girl that I saw last night at a christmas party irl, so I walk behind her and whisper something provacative and vulgar into her ear and she gives me this look of desire as if she agrees to what I just said. Kolby yells that we're going to miss the bus (even though I don't ride the bus anymore). We are walking around a bus loop where there is a row of buses behind each other. As we pass the first one, Kolby says "dude that's your bus" and it starts to drive away. I sprint after it leaving kolby behind and start to bang on the door sort of like in Spiderman 1. My friend Will from school screams at the bus driver to stop and as the bus stops and the doors open, I see it's my bus driver from elementary school. I get on and sit down across from Will and another friend that I have recently converted to lucid dreaming named Luke. I start to explain to both of them what lucid dreaming is, but I never actually realize that it this was a dream so the dream continues. We round a corner and ramp into the air but hover safely to the ground soon after. That's when it ended.

It's so frustrating when I explain what lucid dreaming is to a dream figure and I don't actually do a reality check to start the lucid dream.

I'm back home with the family. I'm just outside the home property where I used to live. The day is barely about to begin. There is nothing down this street. Just like my other dreams, this area was always the place where it felt alone. I wandered around this area until I found something to entertain me. There was nothing much I could find but, there was a car that drove past me. I never followed any vehicles down this street but maybe this car could lead me somewhere more exciting.

I followed the car and before I know it, the scenario of the neighborhood changed! The buildings around me turned in to skyscrapers and all the areas began to stretch out! I followed a crowd before me. It was a crowd of friends who held guns to fight against an army of people. These enemies we were fighting were not very strong. They often hid behind walls and on tall structures above us. Me and my allies walked through them and shot every man we saw. It had a Call of Duty feel to it. There were times where I almost got shot but I did my best to dodge, duck and roll to avoid the bullets.

We reached the corner of the enemies' territory and found a civilian resting place. Me and my team walked inside and observed the building. At first, I had no idea what is was but something told me the entire area we were in, was about to be blown to destruction. There was a rare chance for us to live. I told the rest of my teams to hurry up and prepare for an escape on what we believed to be a plane but was actually just the inside of a building. I walked around and found an area where I wanted to sit. I saw a few people here and all I can tell from remembering, they didn't looked so confident. Before I could do anything else, I woke up.

I'm with M and I don't know how I got here, or where here exactly is, but it's getting hot and steamy. "I didn't know she liked me like that", is just running through my mind during this sexual encounter. We're both clothed at the moment, but we're also in bed. I'm slightly on top of her in a pushup position, and she's playing with my dick through my pants. Between grunts of ecstasy, we both have miniature staring contests. This girl is intoxicating. We're just taking everything about each other in. Some girls tend to get intimidated when I stare directly into their eyes, but she welcomed it.

Then her phone rings. Damnit, she picked it up...I move to the side of the bed. It's D on the other line. Something happens....either I leave, or I have to go or something.

I'm in the store with J and D, and I have no idea what we're doing, but later, he tells me that the other D said I had to sign some paper saying I need to be laid off. I told him that I wasn't even on the books for working there, and I don't even hang out with him anymore. I also remember talking behind his back to J when he stepped out for a second.

Weird 20 second LD where I apparantly was too lazy to focus enough which resulted in me half LDing/half non-LDing. Found myself in my mom's living room, feeling really dizzy and kept floating in mid-air, went into the kitchen:

>Mom told me to stop LDing
>Woke up, still being all numb in the body.

I'm excited today! Had three vivid dreams, and was annoyingly close to becoming lucid!
Oh well, here they are

Tourist in Asia

This took place in your typical tourist-y waterpark, there weren't many waterslides etc, but those that were there were in chipped white paint. Everything had a very cheap aura too it. There was also plenty of food stands, and loads of people (White) eating there.

I remember quite clearly I was on the hunt for firecrackers, as I was almost certain this country, which I don't remember, allowed them. I noticed, down a long straight walk made of white stone, that there was a tent with a large sign saying: "Fireworks". I was overly excited of course, but as I walked closer I noticed that there wasn't much more than a box and three Asian people below the tent roof. They did however point out to me, "If you want to see all our goods, go to the tent across the river.". Turns out there was a small, eh, river, next to the path which I could just jump over. The other tent was just the same, except with two boxes.

So, I got bored with that, and found a small, somewhat creepy, stair/door leading down to a cellar. The cellar though, was anything but creepy, but instead turned out to be a big room, filled with display cases showing off everything from lighters to actual diamonds. Every case was made of very polished mahogny, and it was proper fun to inspect every case. The store was also manned by European girls, something I found odd.


Reckless driving

This time I was in the car, with three of my friends. One of my friends, who has a driving license, drove quite well on some random highway and I was making fun of his car for being a Toyota.

A sudden swap of setting, and my other friend, without a driving license was driving. We were now at a country road shaped like an L laying down. We drove to the end of the L and came to a dead end. My friend now had to turn around, which he did very recklessly and ended up bumping both the big wall which made the dead-end, as well as other cars that were parked nearby.

He drove back, and in the middle of the long part of the L, there was a path up to a mansion, with a large parking lot, which we apparently were heading to. The road to it was small, and he turned in to it, again, very sharply. Once in the parking lot, he hit *a lot* of cars, making several alarms go off.


The strange elevator

This time I was in Amsterdam, at a supermarket. I went to inspect a few stores, but found nothing of interest. I then sat down at this small table waiting for what I think was a psychiatrist, to let me in. Her office had a weird elevator leading to the room, and nobody could enter if anyone else was already in her room. So, I sat down still, now apparently with a few of my classmates, even one I never talk to. I was drinking a softdrink, and they had some sort of soda. I remember that I wanted to go up to her room very much, except that people kept going in ahead of me.

Once my turn actually came, after weird talks with the classmates and one girl I coulnd't remember, I went into the elevator door, which looked something like a blue empty space, with small purple particles floating downwards, almost like rain. I stepped in, stayed still, and everything got black. I was all of a sudden, inside a very large room, which looked like an elevator shaft without any details. It was the same blue space and particles all over the walls, and I could feel myself floating upwards without doing anything.

This also lead to one of the coolest feelings I've ever had in a dream, I had the ability to spin in the air! It doesn't sound like much when I write it down here, but damn, it felt absolutely amazing.

I was, annoyingly quickly, 'teleported' to the room of the psychiatrist. I really can't recall what we talked about, but I remember accidentally quitting out of the room, and felt very sad about it.


Short, but sweet

This is the last dream I had this night.

I woke up in my room, everything was dark. I remember thinking it was really odd, since the clock wasn't that early, nor late. I also walked up from my bed for some reason, and walked in to the center of my room.

I then proceeded to do a RC, by pushing my finger through my hand. Unfortunately I don't think I was focused enough, and I didn't look at my hand while doing it, so I just assumed it was reality, then I went back to bed.

I am driving car along some long city road, under bridges and surrounded by buildings. On the left side there are several short ares with cemeteries behind old fences. When I am passing one, it seems like there is a skeleton rising up from one of the graves. I turn my car around and drive back to have a look. But its somewhat damaged when I come back.

Then I am part of some tourist group or something, and there is a big model of some famous building on a side of a large square. Next to the model is another building, from which, if I go to upper floors, I can see inside the model. I try but the group is rushing me.

Then I am sitting in a car in front of George grand dad's house. George is also in his car and we chat about what we are going to do. I know that he is in Zasada for a short time as he came to visit from Australia. He is kind of pissed off about something. I think there is another friend there with me... maybe Martin. George then decided that he doesnt go out anymore, that he has some other pans. I am a little bit pissed off with him for changing his plans so quickly. Then I spot a tree with large pears on it. They are enormous. I use some apples from the ground to shoot down the pears. I am focusing on a specific big one. George is trying to shoot some down too. I manage to get two or so down.

I am waking up....

I was at a brightly lit indoor hot spring. The place had a warm golden yellow color to it and the water was flowing into what looked like a lazy river like setup. The hottest area of the spring had magical properties and was in a pool that was connected to the main river. It had the power to turn people into pokémon and evolve natural pokémon. Me and a pokémon ,that I can’t seem to remember what he was (a psyduck I think), decided to swim into the magic area. When I got into the pool area, the water seemed to drag me under. As I was stuck underwater I could feel myself changing. Thick dark blue started to grow on my back while tan fur grew on my stomach and limbs. I could tell that my legs were getting shorter by a fair amount and my arms shrank some too there was no pain, just a strange pulling sensation. My face lengthened into a muzzle and my ears turned cat-like and moved up my head a little. I had turned into a quilava. The entire transformation didn’t really take much time, only about ten seconds or so. My head burst out of the water and as I took a breath, I could feel a tingling along the top of my head. I looked down and saw a very blurry reflection but it was enough for me to see that the top of my head was on fire. It didn't bother me much since I knew that quilava’s have spots that light on fire located on their head and along their lower back. What intrigued me was that my fur seemed to have shed most of the water. I looked over at the other pokémon and noticed that he had evolved. We looked at each other and smiled. I felt happy. I stood on my hind legs looking around and just taking in the new sensations; the fur on my lower half swirling in the water, listening to the sounds of the spring and of all the other people and pokémon with my enhanced hearing, seeing the place with crystal clear vision. This didn't last though, I woke up merely seconds after taking all that in.
