non-lucid

I took a nap today with the intention of having a dream that hasn't repeated itself yet. These were the results. Very peculiar.



I was in some ghetto alleyway with several people. I thought of these people being dangerous because two of them were covered in this white powder that I thought was crack. (I was explaining to myself before the nap something about baby powder and then I dreamt of this) Anyways, I don't know what these people where up to the couldn't seem to form sentences and seemed rather unaware. The were circling around in curious patterns and then I thought “I gotta get outta here.” So I begin to walk away but one of the people start to follow me but I don't think anything of it, its almost like everything in the dream was hidden by appearance so that the person who was following me wasn't a stranger or danger. This person led me to this area where we stopped and then it was like I was watching a movie. There were to robots who were talking about there mechanical appearances and the usage of their appearance being rather useless. Like, this one robot had a spatula for an arm and said it didn't have any use for him and he didn't understand why it would be used by humans. After this segment I was walking down the always again because I felt like I needed to leave 'again' and then I ended up watching another movie sequence about someone winning a crown piece for their hair and how it was a great accomplishment for them to have been awarded this crown/hair piece. I was reminded of a dream I had in the past about running away and getting into trouble along the way. It was a specific dream I had about climbing latter’s and then falling down while running away from something. I think why I was reminded of this was because I wanted to get up and leave again and was inclined to but then was reminded of the hectic dreams I have when this does happen. The dream ended where I was in a theater watching a play but the stage props where bigger in size and in comparison to what the play was about so I was confused. I was then reminded of the Muppets. End.

Driving somewhere with C, realise we can hardy see in front of ourselves so I check if her lights are on. We cross a bridge, 3 lane traffic, can't pinpoint where dream was supposed to be. Lots of white figures are flying over us. At first I thought it was birds at 2nd looked they appeared to be planes and I was concerned we may get bombed.

Dream scene changes and I'm on a couch, with Candace in the middle of a swamp like area. There are animals, it feels dangerous but the only animal I really recall is a stag, although it was about the same size as a dog. 2 people were behind us and one threw a big bit of meat into the shallow water at our feet. The animals looked but wouldn't go for it. Behind the 2 men were talking about how this was a hierarchical act. After a while the stag looked at me then charged. I grabbed its antlersAnd pushed it away. It got submissive and bowed down. Then it went to the meat an offered ussome. Dreamscapechanges. Men behind us appeared Indian and we were offered some Indian food.

I'm leaving one store and going into another, and some guy is asking everyone in the store if we've seen some dude. I tell him no, but the guy just keeps looking at me. I asked him what he looked like, and he describes a black guy....and I got that "oh great, I know where all black people are all the time" thought in my head. I leave, head outside, and see a combination of old army friends and some college guys.

They say they're going to some club and they want me to go. I told them yeah, and went up to my room. I came back down, and realized that I had school the next day and I told them I couldn't go. They were all like "common". I realized they had plenty of room so I was thinking if I carpooled, didn't drink and slept on the way back, I would be fine.

I realize Desire isn't in her parking spot, and there is a really old Model T type car and MPs came up and said something about how dirty the parking lot was, and then some other chick in BDUs came with some other soldiers and told us some speech that said she knows we'll be able to clean it up because we're 120% better than what we were or something. It made sense, and we started cleaning up.

There was some open stair wells that had these devices that we could ride up and down between floors, and I did some parkour moves through some stuff, and ran into ST. (the first girl I ever asked out. She said she'd think about it, and it took her all the way to the next day to say "I'm sorry Wade, but no".) I started talking to her...gave her a hug, and was just catching up a bit, and I asked her if she had a boyfriend. She said no....so i tried working my magic, and she tells me about how she's been in terrible relationships. The girls around her even tried saying "hey girl, you should date him, he's a great guy". No dice. She just wasn't that into me. And the way she looked even better than she did way back then made it a bit worse.

I headed off trying to salvage what little pride I had left, and some lady had my shoes on a counter and told me my shoes stunk. I was trying to figure out how could that be because I wash them a lot.

These past couple of nights I have had dreams with depressing themes:
Death
Crime
Violence
Rape

Dream sign would have to be dead dogs... and a nearby town (the location of murders in my dreams)
I think I had a couple false awakenings, where I recount my dream and then wake up later without anything written in my dj

Haunting
My wife I drive to a fenced in building with white chat all around. I know it is a radio station and we know the guy doing the program. we go in but there are several people working in like a warehouse. I don't see our friend but there is a guy working on a dryer. He is vacuuming bobby pins out with a shopvac. Stop and look around to take in the surroundings.

I turn around and I am in this house. It is haunted. There are inflatable toys attacking me. I think that if this was dream I would probably bite it and eat it. So I pick up a ball that looks like a zombie head and bite it and thread it to pieces. It feels like taffy. I go to attack the others.

WBTB Timer Method
Voting first 20min timer
I am at work and we are voting. We have to take a test before we get our ballots. I look at mine. It says Chemistry. I try to read the first question but I can't focus to make sense of it. The new lady is done already. I feel like an idiot. I just can't focus to answer a question. Is this what ADD is?
My supervisor comes to help me but is just talking a bunch of gibberish. She puts a cheat sheet next to me. I don't want it. I just want her to go away. I wake up to the alarm, I lie still and get a few seconds SP then wide awake.

I almost had it there. Things I did wrong: I only was able to get 3hrs sleep before WBTB. I was tired and didn't do a proper WBTB. I only had a 6 hour window. If I am able to have more time, the timer method may work well.

[Sunday, October 21st, 2012]
I'm at a giant rodeo or an open area with a fence around it. There is manure everywhere you walk along the soft dirt. My Dad is with me, and so is Nathan.

Nathan splits up from me as I go to help my Dad with work. I follow him around the area, just to lend a helping hand, when he tells me: "There are shrooms growing all around the rodeo.", and he pointed at the ground at a mushroom. He bent down to pluck it and placed it in a bag. He went inside a building and I followed him as he cut it up and shoved a slice into his mouth.

"Hey Dad!" I was excited, "Did you know that mushrooms and humans have extremely similar DNA structures?"
I paused as he nodded... Apparently, I had already told Casey and Casey had told him.
"I hear some people talk about how experiencing higher human consciousness could be connected to mushrooms somehow."
He smiled and nodded again. I aplogized if I was annoying him, but he dismissed it.

He sat down in an odd chair that was built into the side of the wall, with a strange orange head-rest with a spiral painted on it. He leaned his head back and pressed a button and the headrest shoved his head forward, as if it were made to give him a concussion. He was leaning too far to his right and it didn't go off right, he tried it again and-
<memory fades>

I go outside and scan the ground for more shrooms. I would LOVE to do shrooms. I only see plucked stems and misleading tree stem stubs. I arrive at an open field area and find Nathan again. I tell him about the shrooms in the area and he's just as ecstatic as me! But his enthusiasm dies down and he starts to look around like a zombie. I look around and see only more stems...

It's almost time to go, but I find one on the ground, carefully hidden from view and I shout, "YES!"
I pluck it and plop it into my canvas bag.
Me and Nathan leave with my Dad.

<I wake up.>
(I'm open my eyes and I'm still excited! FINALLY SHROOMS! Then I realize slowly that I don't actually have shrooms and I calm back down to sleep again.)
<I go back to sleep.>

I'm in an office-looking building and I saw my Aunt and I noted in my head that she looked really pretty. My Dad and Nathan were still with me in the room, sitting down. I pick up a phone and decide to call my Mom. She picks up and says that she's at a hospital? and she saw the Caller-ID and that it said Triad, so she picked up. She sounds unusually happy and I don't think she is mad at me anymore for not talking to her for a few days. I talk to her for a bit and actually have a sensical conversation that I would remember clearly in waking life. (I didn't because I waited so long to write this down.) I say goodbye and hangup. My Dad, Nathan, and I leave.


-----

My memory fades in to where I'm back at our house (I don't recognize it in waking life.) My brothers are both there and we're all in the kitchen. I'm holding my canvas sack of shrooms (apparently there's lots of them now) and I reach into the freezer to pull out a Melon-Cucumber Gatorade. I open it up and drink a bit and am extremely happy to have it. I talk to Casey and Brent for a moment before heading back to a back room.

Casey is in the room with me and on the TV I hear someone say something like, "I'm alone in the room with this nasty chick-"
Another guy interupts him on the TV, "Please don't tell me you bumped uglies with her."

I repeated whatever was said (it was close to THIS, but it was actually funny. I wish I could remember...) and Casey laughed his ass off.

[Saturday, October 20th, 2012]
(This is my first true recall in a few days. I've been with Alex, super stressed off and on, getting stoned and drunk... So this was new and refreshing to recall a dream for once.)

I'm at an unfamiliar home, but I see my old friends, The Everette family. Caleb, Jonathan, Aaron, and their Mom. Isaiah and their Dad, I can't find. In this new home, I fumble through games and movies like I used to when I visited them. I talk for awhile with some of them, and go outside a few times. Suddenly, everyone is leaving. They aren't here anymore. Their Mom must have taken them to church or something-

My Mom pulls up, or something and my memory fades. The next thing I remember, I'm driving down a Phoenix road trying to figure out my way home. In the upper right corner of my vision, their is a Minimap like in WoW and Google Maps of the road. I'm going the wrong way, but it reroutes a way to turn after awhile I do turn. I make it back all the way to a Highway that leads to my home.

Sonic vs. Shadow + Chaos Control out of nowhere? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I believe I'm controlling Sonic the Hedgehog, like playing a video game. I'm preparing to go into some room, and I get strong feelings of fear and anticipation of what's to come. My gut feeling thinks I had a dream reset at least once, which probably added on to my perception of the outcome to do better than the last attempt.

I go inside the room, and it's structured like the stage before the final variants of the final boss in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle where Shadow and Sonic face each other off.

Out of a reflex, I mentally control sonic to do a Homing Attack at Shadow. It's hard to tell if Shadow is my enemy, because I'm getting thoughts that it was the Chaos creature in its Zero form.

I'll just assume it's Shadow. Shadow comes after Sonic, and I prompt Sonic to dodge to the left immediately and then dash to get some distance from Shadow. After a while, Sonic falls off the edge of the same violet type of surface mentioned above.

Then I realized we're at very high altitude in outer space, just like in the game. But while I think there's no hope of doing anything, except wait for another game reset because I probably had a lot of lives, something weird happens.

Sonic is able to use Chaos Control, and teleports himself back to the seemingly infinite path of the violet type surface.

I can't remember what happens after that.

Killing Thor-Like Gods and Someone Saves Me (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

It's kind of hard to recall all the details here....and I'm kind of shaken at the turn of events later on...

I'm killing DCs that looks like variants of Thor. I think I'm doing this to save somebody who's blonde that's wearing a female CEO outfit, the black skirt, white dress shirt underneath the black jacket, etc.

The Thor-like variants all have HP bars on top of their heads, and I'm able to kill them pretty easily. I can't recall if I'm in my dream body similar to waking life, or someone else completely. I believe I was wearing a Black tuxedo unbuttoned, with a white dress shirt underneath, and long black dress pants.

It takes maybe 2-3 hits to kill the assumed Thor Gods. The HP bar level of danger was set up like the usual Green being healthy, Yellow being Cautious, and Red meaning danger.

The environment I'm in seems to be at an open city. Me and the enemies are on a wide gray concrete surface separate from the empty roadways.

Even though the enemies were pretty easy, it seems my life points was decreasing as well, and I don't know why. I'm at 15 HP, but it still shows up as green, so it must be that I'm invincible despite the HP going down.

As I'm getting to the last enemy, I think someone tries to tell me something bad is going to happen. Since I had my back facing the majority of the environment when I killed the last enemy, I turned my back to find a laser-like beam was going to be fired at me.

At the last moment, the same blonde female in the CEO type of suit comes in, grabs me, throws me out of the way to the back of her. She takes the laser beam between her chest and stomach, and I open my arms, desperately trying to make sure I can catch her falling towards me with her back facing me.

I can't tell who it was, just that she was blonde.

Wow..just wow...you took the shot for me? And I can't even remember how you looked like?


I think I might add this to memorable, and hopefully consider drawing it in the future...if I can even remember to do so...

No You Stay Here (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The people didn't really tell me that in the dream literally (the title)...

I'm inside a random house, and I'm doing something on a laptop. After a while, the people in the house decide to leave to go somewhere, and I said that I'll come along as well.

My father declares to me that I have to stay here, and I get disappointed because whatever it was, I really wanted to go.

Math Exam Curve and Different Math Classroom? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Weird dream...

I'm sitting in a math classroom that seems to be a smaller sized college room, or a regular sized High School room. The teacher is a young Asian male, and he says there will be a curve for the exam.

Everyone starts doing that reaction where they start talking at low volumes, and then augments in excitement as they talk about about the curve being implemented. I can't blame them, since I was busy having my own mini-mental orgasm of there being a curve for the class.

I think the curve would be applied because the class average in this dream was horrible, like a 48 or something like that. The environment is kind of blurry in some areas, and I can't even recognize my teacher, but that's due to his bowl-shaped brown hair covering his eyes.

The dream shifts, and I'm trying to look for my Math Class, here's the part that bothers me the most.

After looking around in one of the hallways, expecting my classmates to be in this randomly generated classroom, I get this conception, like an unconscious reflex or something, that associates that this is the classroom that I usually go to. I ended up turning back to get out of the hallway.

As I'm getting close to the big main hallway, I look to the second to last or last room to my left, and noticed familiar faces from waking life inside. For some reason, those faces triggered me into believing this must be the classroom that I have to go in, and that the teacher probably had a room change or something.

I get disturbed by these types of dreams where my mind associates a random collection of people, tries to conform it to a plot of a basic endeavor like trying to find your class, and suddenly, it's like having false memories implanted based on feelings on previous experiences in life and in dreams.

It's a bloody Apophenia fest in this dream.

Oh, and the dream seemed like it was just developing, but my external alarm in waking life wakes me up...7 AM. Ugh. Life. Eeeew. Laundry....NOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Dream - Lucid

I was running through some area of the Magic Kingdom in Disney world with my friend, Leigh. It was evening, and there were lots of people around (obviously...I mean...it was Disney World). Leigh was running in front of me. She turned to the left and towards the entrance to a ride. I followed suit. I was really excited...I love Disney World, and haven't been since I was a little kid!

We ran into the entrance, and ran down lots of off-white stairs with many other people. I started to think about how we got there; apparently, Leigh had won two free tickets. Well I can live with that. But then, I started to wonder if I was dreaming, because this was so exciting and surreal. It felt kinda dream-like, though I honestly hoped it wasn't a dream because I was having so much fun. I tested by trying to stick my fingers through my palms. It failed, so I didn't try another RC; I figured I should just live in the moment and enjoy it, dream or not.

As I was RCing, we had gotten to the bottom of the all the staircases. We saw a closed gate at the bottom with I think a guy standing in front of it. There was a sign on the gate.

Then, I was laying in bed somewhere, writing letters to my friend, Aaron. I was suggesting that I liked him and wanted to be with him, but not going right out and saying it; I was using very poetic language. But at the same time, it's like I was watching it happen to someone else. It was me, but it wasn't me. I remember Aaron was in a bed too, though I don't think the same bed. If it was the same bed, he wasn't trying anything with me. I remember seeing a girl I went to high school with, Maegan, sitting on some stairs.

Then, I was waking up in a bed, very groggy, and Aaron was next to me, though there was a certain unspoken "distance" between us, like we were only friends and he respected it. My mom was there too, laying in her bed. She asked me what I dreamed about, and I told her, through mostly closed lips and gritted teeth (I felt like I couldn't open my mouth all the way for some reason)
"Disney World and sex." though I didn't mean to say "sex", but it came out that way since my lips were closed and my teeth were gritted. I knew Aaron had heard me, but it was too late to take it back now. I think I went back to sleep.

I then remember waking with Aaron again, extremely groggy, and getting up to use the bathroom. I slipped big empty M&M bags on my feet, or maybe it was already unwrapped wrapping paper. At any rate, I was shuffling to the bathroom with them on my feet.

I then was sitting on the stairs on the back patio area at my house, and the letter writing thing was still going on. I then felt like it was me but wasn't me falling in love with Aaron. I saw him from the viewpoint of myself sitting on the stairs next to him, watching him play the acoustic guitar. Most of the focus was on his hands strumming the strings. I thought something along the lines of
Sometimes, you find love when you least expect it.

October 20, 2012
9:16-5:11

I was in a field somewhere with a hill. The place actually looked like a stretched out version of my upstate property. There was a two-story house at the top of the hill. A forest was at the bottom of the hill, and along the sides. Many people from my school were there.

We had to survive wolves; many, many wolves. They constantly attacked us. I was bitten by one and I fell. I was getting dragged away by one down the hill, but someone got me back from the wolf.

I don't really remember much else. This dream was one that occurred the sleep period before my second LD.

October 21, 2012
3:30-6:00

I was in my neighborhood I was very popular and I hung out and talked to many people. I was much more involved in the clubs I'm in and I was invited to many events and things.

I also invited one of my friends N. over to my house, but I didn't really talk or do much with him. I was too busy talking to my family and texting my my other friends. When he wanted to leave, he had a very worried look on his face, like he was lying or something.

I was in my room, and the moonlight was shining into my window. I was listening to KRS-One talk about religion. A lot of it didn't make any sense, and J walked in and asked me about it. I told him I listened to it, but I wouldn't let it have any affect over me.

I'm in some casino, and there are various wheel of fortune winners, and I was trying to convince them they should all get together, and use their money to make more money. I really want to say there was a girl involved that I was flirting with a bit. They declined, and I walked over to a dance floor and waited for them to play something decent. There were people out there battling, and they were c-walking. Their skill level didn't seem all that great, so I was going to slide out there before a friend of mine got completely served.

I slid out there, and started working it, and just like that, the song switched up, and it was one of those 'know the dance' types. It two people facing each other with a person behind each one. They would do some moves and slap each others hands several times and eventually slap the hands of the person behind them. It was kinda cool...but not my thing.

I remember something about being in a basement....watching tv, but the cable cord wasn't plugged in.

There was some other thing going on, and they put me on the spot so I went out there. People were lined up, and my goal was to imitate/out do the style that the person on the other side was doing. It started off with some hip-hop moves, and it was super easy. Then it moved to Spanish music. The first thing was salsa, and I wasn't that great at it, and then it switched up to the samba. I nailed it, and some DC was like "wow he learned that in three steps". When the music stopped playing I shook everyone's hands/gave them a hug.

I was walking off when I noticed I had these powers....well everyone really. I could say "tiny" and shrink down to a few inches in height, and saying "regular" turned me back. I kept doing it back and fourth so I could Jump up, and land on tables that would have normally broken in two. I had some test to do, and it involved sparring with a guy while a laser grid moved around us. Eventually the other guy gave up, but my shrink skills helped me last longer.

Once that was done, someone started yelling "fight'! I saw some guy get thrown through double doors into our area, into a vending machine that was next to a water cooler. This girl was owning him. She grabbed him and stuffed him inside the water bottle and stuffed it inside the machine....pree sure that guy died.

I ran into the next room and said "guy's you gotta stop this chick outside, or she'll lose control". They ignored me, and I ran back out side, only to watch him (she was some black guy now) owning people in the crowd. Most of the people were just afraid of him after seeing what he did, and never really tried to fight him. He was knocking them out of the way like a football player. I noticed one problem though. He was really slow.

Eventually he came after me, and I didn't back down. I used my shrinking skills to dodge his punches and went back to regular size when I was behind him due to his effort of swings. I got punched one time while blocking with my arms crossed, and it sent me into the air, and things seemed to slow down. I landed on my feet, and decided to try one last ditch effort to take this guy out.

He rushed at me, swinging with all his might, and I yelled "tiny", shrunk down, yelled "regular" and turned around. I laughed at the fact this guy still was using the same basic moves. He swung at me one more time, and as soon as he did, I yelled "big". I gained about three feet, and a a lot of muscle mass. I caught his fist, pushed it down by his side, and grabbed his ankle and tossed him back and fourth like a rag doll. Each slam had concrete flying up from the ground. When I was done he got up again, and I jumped up, got him in a scissors leg lock in mid air, and barrel rolled. It was something like a side-waysfrankensteiner. During the roll, everything went into super slow motion, and I could see the guy throwing up on my legs while spinning. It looked grossly amazing.

I drove to a gathering in the woods, there where many people, but we found a nice place to lay down our blankeds. we walked around and after some time, more and more people came, and as i walked back to our "camping site" is saw, that they sat down there sound system in our place, i had to finde our blankeds again, a guy helped my, to pull up some stuff from the audio system, so thet i could pull some t-shurts out. i made a joke, that i spare myself the ironing of the clothing by doing so.

I had a house and some people where there, we made a party and i sad, that we just use one part of the house (i think it was the garden) but the sturted to shift furniture inside the house around, and as i saw it, it made it clear that they could not party inhere, and i realised that it will be difficult to arrange the stuff in the way it was, because it was messy before... and there where a lot of antidepressents around.

So after the scene with the college kids being eaten, I woke up but i managed to fall asleep again and have another dream.

The first or should i say third dream started out with the camera moving down into the basement of the mansion. The camera zoomed up to the wall in which i had first died in and suddenly out of the flesh stuck to the wall a small creature came out. For some reason i knew that creature was actually me. Somehow i had mutated with the monster or whatever it was that was causing all this and was able to create my own body and escape. My appearance resembled that of the licker from resident evil except i was smaller, didnt have a brain head, and i sure as hell didnt have a long tongue. The dream switched to me crawling on the floor at night in this unknown city. I remember crawling towards this guy that was alone walking the side walk and when i went in for the kill, I swallowed him whole. I recall fragments of me just sneaking up on random unsuspecting victims and eating them. The entire dream was shot in third person but at one point it switched to first person in which i could see what me or the creature saw. Not only did i have night vision (Everything was lit up and looked purple) but every human i saw lit up with a red aura. After that scene I found myself in a festival or carnival. I was crawling on the wall and started hanging around this dark area where people would pass by sometimes and id move in for the kill. This little kid with his mother walked by and somehow he could see me. He started pointing at me and trying to get his mothers attention. "Mom look, look!" he would say but the mom didnt pay any attention. For some reason at this point i was able to talk and i kept telling him "Shhhh, stop get away!". He kept yanking his mom to look so i got mad and ran off. My dream switched immediately when i started to take off, to the front of this beverage stand. In this sequence i was taller and standing up straight but i still felt like i was the creature. I had on a hood that made me feel like the guy from prototype as well. There was a person on a stage in front of me and the stand talking to a huge crowd. I had my hand over my face while looking up at him cause i didnt want anyone to see me. A few seconds go by and this black kid bumps into me. He looks right at me and to my surprise he didnt think i looked out of the ordinary at all. I figured i must look like a normal person now. I asked him if he had a problem and he said "What are you gona do if i do?" in an instigating kind of way. Almost instinctively i threw a punch at his face but he caught it. I felt like a weak person and all he did was look at me and smile. I smiled back after a few seconds of being surprised and i threw another punch this time with my left landing it dead center on his cheeks. After the punch i woke up.

Two objects, a small metal egg and a brass ring. One could only be broken by a fall of 30 feet, if dropped by a divine entity, the other never broke. They made a death acceptable, redeemed or fixed, somehow, and I discusses it with someone. Trees, buildings, dreamscapes.
