non-lucid

Backstory: So recently I've been really confused as to whether or not I want to play football again this year in high school, and I'm scared to confront friends and coaches about it. I have a tough academic schedule ahead of me, and I want to get a job.

So I went to school and I saw the football team practicing in the middle of the courtyard. (weird, I know.) I went up to a friend named Diego who also decided he wasn't doing it this year. So I was just asking him if I should and he didn't even respond to me. So I went up to watch the practice, and nobody said anything to me, until one guy told me to get over there and do some of the drills. I did. I enjoyed it. I began to walk away into the school and then woke up.

My subconscious is trying to make me play football and I don't like it! But I do...

My sleeping schedule was changed.
Went to bed...1AM
Woke Up...~5am
Ate breakfast,
Skated
WBTB...~12
Woke up ...2:30PM
worked on recall , wrote down fragments while I started on my dreams
=SUCCESS, I remembered a LOT more than I expected. Be patient with your mind.

The dreams? Well even though I'm very excited about what I did recall, everything that I rc are...fragments. The great part about them is that I know what order they came in.

M and myself were at a ski lodge/ restaurant- it was a very open environment, with friendly workers. We both took it all in , and then we were in a great mood so we began to laugh at the smallest things. The cashier sensed we were in a great mood, so he gave M brochures and recommended I apply to the job. I thought it was awesome but kept joking with M. Until M admitted that we did not live near the area. We got our sandwiches and ate. The breading was made out of apples, and after I took a bite out of it (wasn't bad) I looked around and saw a women, with sandwich with actual breading. I was disappointed M decided on this sub. I thought "wtf was she thinking...?" I told her and she said we can just come back later for the one I wanted. Problem was, I didn't know for sure what the woman had/ if I liked it anyway. We run through a teen hangout with old classmates of mine and I'm embarrassed. MG tells me we have to go so I suck it up. We get right past the lounge and we find an arcade where M enthusiastically offers me money to play. I decline. We're back and I see my old crush J, she's with her sister and I stop myself from approaching her, and tell myself to get over her. She steals a couple glances my way, so I get on the elevator and go to two floors , both deserted clothing/gift shops. The latter, I find a wig and run back to the elevator with it. When, I get back to the "main-dream floor" I find M and G and a random man, who is in our way with his suitcase. He asks where the wig is from, and says that he thought so , because I was a little too old for wigs. LOL This DC had attitude.M wanted to take me back to the sandwich shop, even though I declined. We went and I didn't try to read the menu! Tell*tale*sign* amiright? /skip ending fragment/ Bus I ran ,excited to get there first. M shouting 'i'm sitting w/ Vinny blahblah' driver says ok I will sit other people first. I was thinking 'ok. cool. w/e' while M was tripping balls. She screamed 'we need the 2nd seat!' then I covered up for her saying no it's fine. She then shut me up by saying that it was not ok. I did not want to make the situation any worse, so I said ok. The "weeded-freshman" looked at me like M was insane as they boarded.

I'm watching a YT video in which an old friend of mine, A, just talks . She has braids in her hair. And the first part, she acts as if she did not notice the braids until a few moments after the camera was rolling. It was a start-stop type of video , but I still found it humorous. Then M tells me G had a lucid dream! I think I was excited to read about it, but in the end I didn't (...) fuuuuuuuuuuu. But I am happy. It's semi-lucid.

Dead Bird? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm walking with my father, getting ready to go back to a random vehicle, but he can't move it because some spots on the ground had dead bird residue?

I'm not even sure on that.

Essay (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I only remember being in class trying to prepare to write an essay. I see Melissa at some point.

What I find weird is that after I woke up to record these dreams, I slept until around 1:19 PM starting from 6-7 AM.....and I didn't remember any dreams from that second sleep....ugh.

I have glimpses, but I don't know if they were works in progress.

Around 7:00

Snakes & Crickets
Non-Lucid



First thing I remember is being inside my house, I am on the stairs leading to the second floor and I notice that I have a cricket on my hand. I flick it off my hand, and it hits the ground with a huge thud, surprisingly. I walk back down the stairs and walk into the living room. On one of the chairs in the room is a box, I don't know what is in the box but I pick it up and put it on the ground. I get a knife to cut the tape off which has sealed it. When I do, a snake jumps out at me, I fall backwards avoiding the bite. I back away while the snake slithers towards me, it coils back before launching itself at me, but the cricket from before which has gotten immensely bigger, like a super cricket, dives in front of me and the snake and cricket engage in a battle. I watch it all unfold and distinctly remember seeing a pool of blood on the ground but I wake up while the two are engrossed in their battle.

I was at Ted's house wandering around. He lived in a trailer, I believe, or some kind of large mobile home, which isn't the case in the real world. Kate, Hannah and Jordan were there. I went back to talk with them. I went up to the den, where Ted was sleeping, and pulled out my dream journal, or what was supposed to have been my dream journal. I started sketching a mans face, from the shoulders up. It was better than anything I could have actually done. Went to the back of the house where everyone was... and moved to the next dream.

Where I was playing LoL as Karthus and getting the shit farmed out of me by a teemo. You didn't spawn at your Nexus, there were no lanes, it was like a free roaming thing. And when you died, you just respawned in the same place. So I'd spawn, and teemo would poison the shit out of me, and slow me (I assume he had a mallet), and I'd die, and this happened over and over.

Then I woke up to call my girlfriend as an alarm, so she could get to work on time. I was gonna lie down and try a WILD, but I was feeling sick, so just rolled the dice and went back to sleep instead.

In the dream I have after waking up and returning to bed, I'm checking what I think is my email account, though I realize it is Alex's. I log out, get ready to log into my own, when I get a text. It's some guy claiming that I've been talking to his girlfriend. I'm about to text him and tell him that I have no idea who he is when I hear this sound from upstairs. It's two people having sex. I look up the steps at the room, and this guy walks out. At this point, I'll add that the home we were in had the feel of a really large silver metal mobile home. Anyway, I'm looking up the steps at this guy, who is kind of old, kind of balding, grey scraggly hair, grey beard, and I'm in this just really weird scenario and all of a sudden I'm lucid. I realize what is happening, and I don't freak out. For once in my life, I don't get overexcited, and I keep looking up the stairs and repeat to myself "this is a dream, you can do this, stabilize." Immediately as he walks down and starts talking, his voice starts to shift, as if the dream is in danger of falling apart. I don't allow this to happen. I focus on what he is saying, willing my mind to fill in the sensory data. I focus on the feel of the floor beneath my feet, and how my body is feeling at the time. I focus on the smell of the room. I focus on as many things happening around me as I can, and I force my mind to fill in sensory data for all of it, sensory data that makes sense. As he reaches the bottom of the stairs, he's asking me what we should do in this situation, and he seems somewhat hostile. I strike him on the top of the head. I feel the texture of his scalp, I feel the impact of my hand hitting it. This is fantastic. I tell him to take me upstairs. The dream is stabilizing. He starts to do so... and then my alarm goes off. It was a brief lucid because of my alarm, but the dream was actually stabilizing instead of falling apart, and I was incredibly excited, but I was controlling that excitement. That's the first time I've been able to hold a dream together without fear of it collapsing, and it happened by being hyperaware of my surroundings and forcing my mind to create tons of sensory data. Victory.


After waking up, I walked around some, then went back to sleep and had a non-lucid. I was driving to work; apparently I work at a whole foods here in montana, and apparently I have a car. I'm listening to some awesome version of "One For You, One For Me" by Bright Eyes, but it's a live version where mostly people who aren't Conor Oberst are siging, and he does like every other verse, while they constantly sing backup or lead. At this point I realize Bree is in the car, and I've been singing like an idiot the whole time. I apologize, but she says that it's fine. Something happens with the car, and we have to leave it. An Amish guy picks us up. We are going down the road in the back of his wagon, watching cars pass, he stops and pulls over to let some farmer with tons of sheep or cow or goats, can't remember which, and some weird hyper-real llama, the farmer and his animals being guarded by some kind of canadian mounted police, pass. We move on, his wagon almost flips over, but it's fine. Bree gets a call on her cell and he seems to get angry, so Bree hangs up, and she says something to him about apologizing and us "taking it slow..." and then we're at the Amish dude's house. Which is this incredible mansion built into the side of a mountain that is mostly just a massive cave formation with rooms built into it. This shit is really baller. Chris Tucker is there, turns out this Amish dude and Chris Tucker are good friends. He offers me an alcoholic beverage, which is like an orange or purple slushy with tons of alcohol in it, I take purple of course, and offer the orange one to Bree. Now Kyle is with us. He asks me for one, and tell him he'll have to ask the Amish dude. Then we hang out in the mansion for just a few more minutes... then I wake up. And here I am.

I can't think of a title for this one
Non-Lucid: We (meaning my whole family, no cousins though) are in some kind of futurisic building. Earlier in the dream something really odd and creepy was happening in the building, something out of a horror movie. Though that part of the dream still wasn't a nightmare, and there was also some game/puzzle related things that I remember only vaguely.

The room we're now is the size of a typical fast food joint. The walls are a blueish metal, some parts have a blue/purple light running up it in a tube. In the center of the room is a pit about 7-10 feet deep with a white mist on the bottom and a pink light illuminating the walls of the pit. Standing in the pit are three platforms at the same level of the floor we are standing on, supporting them were thin poles a foot in diameter at most. The floor is the same metal as the walls but instead of a blueish tint it is gray. At the far end of the room are two large windows that take up most of the far wall. There is also a door that leads out to a metal balcony or more likely a deck.

We, that is me, my mother, my grandfather, grandmother, my and on of my aunts, hop over the platforms to my dog who has fallen ill. While The "trying to fix my dog" part of the dream goes on for awhile and isn't worth writing about.

After the dog business is done we observe a severe storm outside. Thunder, cloud to ground lightning, the whole deal. A perfect replica of severe storm. I find myself thinking about what I would take my room if a fire started. I concluded that I would take my Iphone, kindle, my Grado Headphones, and a few other things that I can't seem to recall.

Right, so, my first entry- something wierd happened towards the end, but I'll come to that in a minute.

*****DREAM STARTS*****

I've walking across a flat desert with some old classmates from highschool, who I haven't seen for about 4 years. On the horizon we can see buildings- They're clearly very far away, but they still appear towering and huge, and look faintly futuristic. As we draw closer, I see that there is a power plant, and what appears to be a launch tower for some kind of space shuttle.
When we arrive, we're greeted by a very tall man, who takes us on a guided tour of the power plant. At one point, he picks the 3 of us up and sprints down a spiral staircase very fast, making us dizzy, and then puts us down and disappears. We're in a sealed room, and the staircase is gone. As far as I can remember, the walls were made of metal. I phone the tour guide, and explain that we're trapped, and he says that my friends and i will have to find some way of passing the time.
A door then opens up in the wall, and I walk out of it. I'm taken to the edge of a forest, and told that I have to do a 25 mile run through it. I protest that I wouldn't be able to manage even 1 mile, and they just tell me to follow the path.

When the race begins, I start running, but about 5 minutes in I get to a long stretch of path, with leaves littering the floor. It looks similar to THIS photograph. As I'm running along it, my vision seems to stretch, as if my FOV suddenly increased dramatically, everything seemed to stutter for a bit, and I was snapped back to the start again. Put simply, I'm having major connection issues (maybe I should turn my firewall off? )
This happens every time I reach that point.

***PAUSE***

Ok, this is the weird bit- I'm not entirely sure what happened here- was I in a partial DILD or what? Basically, after this point, I was aware that I was dreaming and started thinking of nothing but dream control. It still felt fragmented and dreamlike- it didn't match any of the descriptions of lucid dreams I've read, but at the same time, I WAS briefly aware that I was in a dream....

***RESUME***

the third time this happened, I realised that I was dreaming- I tried to grab on to the landscape, and kept telling myself that I'm dreaming. Everything then went completely dark- I had no body- and a sort of control panel appeared on my vision- like some kind of GUI. Bear in mind, at the time, as soon as I'd realized I'm in a dream, I had an urge to control EVERYTHING. It had a load of sliders for things like characters, landscapes, etc, and when I moved them things appeared in my dream. I used my usual approach of pressing things randomly until something works, and I managed to get two people running around in a room, but the 'graphics' were blocky and I was viewing everything from above. I then woke up, and tried to perform a reality check, but it was either a false awakening or I fell asleep again immediately, because I then woke up again. That time I was definitely fully awake and conscious, unfortunately

Another thing to note, is that just as I was waking up the first time, I could hear someone talking about driving trains, and how he has to wear a different jacket to drive different trains (I don't even know anymore.. my mind is clearly a very strange place)

*****DREAM ENDS*****

Right, so a few thoughts on this- firstly, I had the feeling that I was almost in a lucid dream at one stage, but it didn't actually feel lucid- Any thoughts or comments on that? Is that something anybody's experienced? Does it mean I'm on the right track or not?

And the other thing is that I've clearly been spending too much time on the computer recently- lagging dreams, FOV and a GUI? Yeah, not normal

I've tagged this as non-lucid, since I'm fairly sure I wasn't actually in a lucid dream, but I'm still confused about that.

5-ish a.m. had to pee

Sat in an outside restaurant with three people I know (don't know who). I felt that it was somewhere abroad. We tried to order but didn't get any food for a long time. We switched tables, and we had ordered with another name than the name we used when we complained, which led to mix-ups. At our new table the ground sloped heavily, and together with the waiters we tried to fix it by putting things under the legs of the table. We soon gave up though, and switches tables again.
(---)
Later we were in a tower, where we were held prisoners by an unseen wizard. I tried too flee and the wizard soon appeared to chase me down. I ran faster than him though, but as soon as i looked away from him, he shapeshifted into different fastrunning creatures. Among other things he became a dog. He couldn't bite me though I somehow learned, and by feigning some i managed to run down a couple of stairs. He finally caught me though.
(---)
I remember trading movies with someone. VHS, but I vaguely remember finding something interesting.

after peeing and jotting down some dream notes, i tried to WILD, but felt uncomfortable. After about half an hour i moved from the bed to the couch. More comfy, but i had a hard time concentrating on WILDing, after I while I gave up and just tried to fall asleep.

9:08 a.m. on the sofa

Johanna and I was visiting a pig farm or something like that. The farmer showed us how to herd them into cages, feed them, and electronically elevate the cage up to the slaughter room. The floor on the cages had large holes so that the pigs had a hard time just keeping balance to keep them from jumping out of the roofless cage.

Johanna - Om jag var en gris skulle jag hoppat ur buren, skulle inte du?
Jag - Jag har ingen aning om hur jag skulle tänka om jag var en gris.

The Lazy River and Monster (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember being at some sort of beach resort. We came to a strip of small stores and houses that occupied the back side of the stores, well the other side. I was with Ken and her friend, Beth.

We walked down the little strip of stores looking for something to do. We found some sort of water carnival thing at the end of the strip. Once we got inside, it was suddenly nighttime. The inside of the building that hosted it looked like the inside of a space shuttle, only bigger. One man sat at a chair as we walked in. He had a control panel sitting on his left, our right. He greeted us and asked us to wait in line. Now that we looked, there was a pretty long line of about 20 kids our ages.

The man got up and told us that we could get in the water now. Not even changing, everyone walked down the steps into the cool water, and we followed everyone else. Once everyone was in the water, the man pressed a button on his control panel. Suddenly, a large wall lifted itself up in front of us, causing all of the water to be sucked out, including everyone else. We found ourselves floating down a deep stream of water, like a lazy river, only much faster. And I had the interpretation that we would get lost out at sea.

Looking on both sides of the water we were floating down, I saw some orange walls. I guess to keep the water and everyone else in. But I still didn't feel safe.

I lost hold of Ken and Beth along the way, so I swam along trying to find them. I bumped into random people trying to find my way, since it was dark. I accidentally grabbed onto the wrong person once. He looked familiar though.

I finally found Beth. I held on to her trying to keep balance. She laughed.

Somehow, the lazy river came back to the same entrance we left at. Everyone got out and left. I was the last to get out, and had trouble finding the exit.

Soon I found myself back with Beth and Ken. We went into some kind of Walmart or something. I Was walking past the microwave isle when a mean looking old lady hollered at me to bring her a drink from the fountain. I looked to my left. Sure enough there was a small fountain.

I grabbed a half full cup without thinking and filled it with some more water. I then looked inside and noticed a couple of strange orange pieces of something. I passed up the thought of taking them out, they were probably for taste or something. I then walked over to the lady and handed the drink to her. "Here you go, ma'am." I said. "Thanks." she said gruffly, and took it.

The dream sped forward. There was a neighborhood beside the strip of stores, and in the neighborhood were hotels and small houses. Somehow my friend Mike came along with me. We were walking down the road, checking the hotels. We had heard a story earlier about the woman in which I had given the drink to. She turned into some sort of monster from the orange things that were in her drink, however the police were unsure of this so they were going to check up on "her" later.

We decided to go see her to see if she was still untransformed. But if she was, we had to take action. We found the hotel she was staying in. We went up and found her room. Before we got any closer, Mike pulled out 3 knifes from the sheaths beside him. "Here, take one," He whispered. "For protection." I smiled at him. He put the two remaining knives in his left and right hand. He
nodded to me, and motioned me to get on top of the table beside her door. I did, and he followed, standing to my right on the table. Our backs were up against the wall, knives in hand. "Knock." he whispered.

I slowly knocked with a shaking hand. After a couple of seconds, we heard the doorknob turn. The door opened just a little. Then it opened a bit wider as if she was looking around. I caught a glimpse of her, but she hadn't seen me yet. She looked much more paler than before, and she looked way older than when I saw her in the store. Then she saw us, and retreated inside, and closed the door.
"Wait! Ma'am!" Mike yelled, jumping off the table. "We haven't come to hurt you. We just wanted to ask you a couple of questions."

Then the dream ended.

I managed to go to bed at 11:45pm, but I don't think I fell asleep until a little after midnight. Then I woke up around 3am, and had trouble getting to sleep (weird heart palpitations, not a racing heart, but it felt like it was doing somersaults in my chest.. not painful, but disturbing and annoying).

What followed next was a series of nonlucids and more importantly, false awakenings. I needed to wake up irl for work by 5am, so I kept dreaming that the alarm had woken us up, or that we slept in, that I suddenly owned a clock radio that kept coming on and Dean Martin was singing Christmas Carols. Finally I had a FA where I had gotten up before Danny (ALWAYS the other way around, and I questioned this), let out the dogs and started getting my food ready for my long work shift. I reached up for something behind the stove, and accidentally knocked a blue pot off it's hook. It fell partway behind the stove, so I'm struggling to get it and hang it back up... when I think to myself "I don't own this blue pot, where the hell did this thing come from?" I kinda stood there for a few seconds, holding the pot, a little confused, then boom! "Abandon this project, I'm dreaming! " I stood in the kitchen, kinda bouncing with excitement, trying to remember the basic TOTM. It hit me right away, "Perform Surgery!!" One issue with this task is if you want to go full on and transport to a hospital, it may take a bit of time and control, and I wasn't sure what time it was irl. The alarm could go off at any moment, so I wanted to waste no time whatsoever. So I went to the living room couch and tried to summon a patient. Nothing. I went to my son's room, hoping to find a patient sleeping in there. I found Chris asleep in there, but no way was I going to perform surgery on him. At no time did I loose lucidity, I even remembered that he was at my mom's irl, but no way am I gonna cut up my son in a dream. And you can cross Danny off that list as well. I went back to the kitchen, trying to figure out what I was going to do, when I glanced at the window and saw the reflection of a man behind me!! I whipped around and it was a tall, slender Hispanic man with a very pallid expression on his face. I asked him right away "Are you here for some surgery?" He said "Yeah." I said, "Well you're in luck, because I'm a wiz with knives," and I proceeded to the kitchen and grabbed my chef knife, fillet knife, and paring knife. I told him to lie on the couch and explain to me what was wrong. He said that a previous doctor had fixed a "kink" in his intestines with a bandaid, and put a little microchip in there as well. I guess to monitor the kink or something. He said the microchip was causing him extraordinary pain and wanted it removed. He laid down on the couch for a moment, then got up and said he was going to his car real quick because he brought his own anesthetic. I told him that's fine, I have some too just in case (I knew I didn't have any, so I was going to just put water in a little flask and will it to work as anesthesia). He came back and said he didn't bring it, so I went to the kitchen and got the water. I held it up and said "I will this water to act as an anesthetic." It didn't look any different, but I didn't care. I wasn't the one who was going to drink it! I gave it to the man and he took a swallow, but choked on it a little bit. Then he took his shirt off and laid back down. It looked like he was drifting off a bit, but he was kinda restless. So I starting rubbing his chest gently, speaking softly, "Sleep, sleeeeeeeeep..." Of course this action produced an erection and I took advantage of it a little bit. I'll skip those details. (I was hoping it would help him pass out!!) It didn't work, he was still conscious. He even asked me if after the surgery, maybe we go out to dinner sometime lol. I said suuuure, why not. He wasn't going completely out, and I was running out of time. So I said I need to start cutting anyway, but he'd be just fine. I held him down with one hand, took the little pairing knife with the other, cringed, and made an incision in his belly. He groaned in pain and tried to sit up, but I pushed him back down. There was no blood. But I could immediately see the loop of intestine with the bandaid. Turned out it was kinda good that he was still conscious, because he was able to talk me through it a bit, and didn't seem to be in pain anymore. (I guess my subC is too squeamish.) I pulled out the little loop of intestine, and noticed the little microchip, which looked more like a tiny stone, sandwiched between 2 of the baindaids. He said just to remove the chip and leave the bandaid, so I did. I was just about to push the intestine back in and sew him back up, when Danny coughed irl and woke me up. Still success! I can't believe I could cut the guy, especially while he was conscious! Surgery went well overall I'd say though.

A friend showed me a strategy game. First thing I noticed in the menu was a grid in which the missions were listed. He chose a mission and was asked to take a credit. He chose some sum of money. I asked him about this and he replied: "I wouldn`t survive the level without the money."
At the display I saw a single man hanging on a rope which was tied to a helicopter. The view was centred around him and it could be rotated. Now you had to place other objects around him while flying through a hostile city.

[COLOR="royalblue"]Non-Aware (Dream)[/COLOR] - [COLOR="blue"]Partially Aware (Lucid Dream)[/COLOR] - [COLOR="navy"]Fully Aware and Vivid (Astral Projection(OOBE)[/COLOR]

This night I went to bed later than what is ideal for me to become aware of my dreams. I was in bed 00:00 and I did the Monroe procedure and I did actually hear a ringing in my ears this time, but it was too high pitch so I knew that I wasn't going to be able to WILD. I might start experiment with WBTB:s just to find out with the help of the tones, when my best time to WILD is.

[COLOR="royalblue"]This night I went to bed late because I had played League of Legends, and all my dreams were about that game as well. Even as I fell asleep my dream flashes were about enemies life getting red and me using my abilities.
When I started dreaming vivid I was the Caitlyn character and I was fragging like a boss. I was slaying 11 enemies in a row. The dream was surprisingly vivid and felt very much like the original game, so I couldn't tell the difference and never got lucid. I had two dreams where I was playing LoL.

Then in the late morning I had a Harry Potter dream, I think I was Harry Potter... :roll:
I was talking to Hermione (YEEEEEEEEAH) :D But then she told me that Dumbledore looked for me. So I went through Hogwarts, but it didn't look like Hogwarts at all... And then I climbed some long rope down into darkness and I think it was a cellar. Then I heard a loud voice saying "We are going to test you fears". I wondered what would happen, it was completely dark and I wanted to grab my wand (lol grab my wand), and shout Lumos, but as soon as I thought that thought an older woman said "Leave it you wont need it". Then I saw another student next to me and he looked scared as h*ll too. Then the older woman said "In this lesson we are going to watch Avatar. I was like o. O
Then she showed a movie of a white man doing random things and then he dressed up as a black man to show us how our emotions changed to hate. (I am not a racist Wtf!)

I also have some fragments of me driving a car with my friend, and we see some nice girls on the sidewalk and I convince my friend o stop and talk to them. We did and I met some girl that was interested in me. I think she looked exactly as the girl I almost had sex with in my last lucid dream entry. LOL! Recurring dreams...[/COLOR]

I was either traveling to China with my father, or already in China. I was in a store looking for a suitcase with a few dudes, then they were replaced by my crush, Jade. One of the suitcases had some glass compartments, and I thought, “they’d be perfect for storing food, even ice cream!”

I saw that my dad had tried to call me on my phone, but my phone didn’t have service anymore. I asked to borrow Jade’s phone, and when I started pressing buttons, the phone was beeping. Jade grabbed the phone from me, hurriedly putting the phone on silent so we wouldn’t be heard. I urged her to hurry up, as people started to gather in the room we were in; they made me uneasy. Some of those people were missing limbs, or were smeared with blood.


Just imagine the blood is a darker shade, closer to purple.

Suddenly all of the merchandise in the room was gone, and there was just a circle of chairs. One man sat in a chair and started sharing a zombie story. Jade got excited and wanted to join.

“Jade, don’t, we have to go.”

“Caenis, you have to do what I say!” Good to know she's demanding even in my dreams. Jade sat down next to the man sharing the story, and quickly began sharing her own zombie story.

I watched the crowd of bloodied and dazed people grow. Anxious, I abandoned Jade, making my way to the front of the store. The front of the store was dark, most of the lights had gone out. There weren’t any more humans, crowds of zombies passed me by. I peered in a room where a human corpse was sitting in a chair, with a severed zombie head on top of his. His head was crushed beneath the zombie head.

I found the exit and wandered the streets. Zombies and humans ran chaotically through the city. Zombie blood sprayed my right cheek. I wiped it off and decided that I wouldn’t turn into a zombie from coming in contact with the blood. I observed a few zombies get struck by lightning, and thought it fitting that even nature was trying to retaliate against the zombies.

I found a nice couple to travel with, and we walked to a Georgian city. We stopped in front of a large, elevated building. I looked up and muttered “No….” It was a train station. Though there were no zombies on the streets of Georgia, I knew zombies would pour out of that train station. People and zombies alike streamed out of the train station, and lightning struck the building causing an explosion.

My hand was torn or bitten off. Determined to not become a zombie, the couple and I suddenly appeared in a room. They amputated part of my arm in hopes that the zombie infection would not spread. “Cauterize the wound” the woman declared while stretching and cutting my skin. My skin was peach-colored and transparent.

Awareness - 9 / 10
Control - 9 10

Although I did become lucid in this dream, I am not counting it because I kept slipping in and out of lucidity, and was never quite fully in it.

Anyways, the first thing I remember is that I was walking down main street. I had apparently just won some big grand prix thing and was headed to the celebration. I went up to the stage and accepted my prize. Then, instead of dunping Gatorade on me, everyone threw mustard and ketchup on me instead. It was kind of wierd but I didn't mind. Then I started walking back and then one of the people from my pit crew came over and the dream faded a little bit. I wondered what was going on and then he said that we were in a dream. I asked him how this was possible, and all he said was, 'go see for yourself'. I went over and asked someone else and they started talking with a baby'like voice I couldn't understand. I was now convinced we were in a dream and was lucid, but only for a couple of seconds, not enough to work on dream goals or anything.

Then the dream shifted and I was now out in the forest at night. I was with some random chick who I was apparently in love with or something and for some reason we were just sitting out here. I then became lucid for a couple of seconds (idk how though). Anyways, I then went on and tol her how since this was actually a dream, I was in love with someone else and basically dumped her. Then things got really wierd. She suddenly turned into a vampire and came to try and bite me. I said ("Back off bitch! *pardon the language* I'm in love with someone else and you are just going to have to deal with it!") Then she just randomly dissappeared and I was left there in the rain. I also lost the lucidity I had.

From this point the dream got pretty personal for me, so I don't really want to go into detail. I will just say that I was REALLY REALLY REALLY close to finally meeting someone from my dream goals. I saw them in the dream and became lucid again. I was so excited! They were about to walk by me and I was going to talk to them, but then I woke up. Aaahhhh so close!!!!!

By the way, sorry I always leave yo uon these cliffhanger endings whenever I come close to this dream goal, it's just really personal for me. But I guess we all have something. lol. That was a very good dream though, at the end anyways.

I was at my school and our football team was having a fundraiser. We were to sell tickets for $10, and the tickets would let you get some ice cream and watch 99 bodies get dissected. I managed to sell some kid a ticket because he wanted some ice cream. He asked for cookie dough, but all we had was vanilla. I went to a mall near the beach, and saw a picture of a thing called "the eye of the phoenix." (it was this little green monster.) As soon as I saw its picture, it started following me around, and I began having bad luck. I tried to leave the mall, but it started raining, and a tornado came and killed some people on the street. I closed the door, and my cousin Matt told me how to get rid of the eye of the phoenix. I got rid of it, but I don't remember how. I started watching some movies, and the main character looked like Master Chief from Halo, but he had a nametag that said Captain Nautilus.
