non-lucid

I had the same scene in my dream about 4 times. I was driving my car to a new job and approached the security gate, it was fenced off with regular metal fence. The car gates were very solid looking and made out of steel, but pained yellow of course. Every time the woman guard asked me for ID, car sticker, or something that I seemed to have forgotten to bring. Every time I apologised and had to turn around to go back to get whatever it was I needed. At least every time I checked my watch it seemed I had plenty of time to do so.

In a different dream I was in a cafeteria and I got a BELT sandwitch on a croissant and Chips. There was no room to sit down and eat so I ate as I walked down the hall. The chips were sour cream & onion flavored and tasted like I was really eating them. The same with the BELT sandwitch.

Fragment- I was on my parent's bed. I started doing all of these weird stretches. For some reason I was extremely flexible in the dream. I was able to bend backwards and touch my feet to the back of my head at one point.

Fragment (Recalled at school, so I added it later)- I was at some kind of boot camp, doing this exercise where I had to walk over all of these parallel logs imbedded about halfway into the ground. I can remember running along the tops of the logs.

I was on my way to school. I was with a grandparent who I think was walking a random dog with them. We walked up to the center of our town and they told me that it was 7:26 and I had to be at school by 7:30 when my school is two miles away!
I asked them to take some weird random thing I was carrying. I can't remember what It was. They started to walk away, and I started walking towards school. Something started to feel just-not-right about what was going on. I soon did an RC and became lucid. But the dream immediately ended.

This was a non-lucid dream I had the other night...


I am in a big room packed with people. It is like one of those spacious convention halls or something. The walls are a dark shade of blue, and the lighting is a bit dim and yellowish. I get the feeling that I'm in a mixer or social gathering or party or whatever. However, there aren't any food tables, waiters, or anything else for that matter. No music, no dancing, nothing. Just lots of people talking at the same time.

I just stand there, scanning people's faces, trying to think if I know any of them. I don't. I scan the room once again, and this time I notice something: everyone is cross-eyed. I don't know why I didn't notice this before, but as the realization dawns on me, I can't help but giggle at how silly everyone looks -- eyeballs pointing in different directions, and everyone's conversing with one another like nothing is wrong. I can't even tell what they are all talking about, there's too much murmuring.

Then a blonde woman from the corner of the room starts walking towards me. She pauses in front of me and whispers the word "Eyebrows." I don't know what in the world she means, but for some reason, I just nod approvingly, and then she walks away. Then a bald dude comes up to me, pauses, and whispers, "Toes." Once again I just nod approvingly and he walks away. Over the next few minutes, the pattern just keeps going. They all just whisper a body part, then walk away.

The dream starts to fade very slowly.

But then suddenly, out of nowhere, I see a cross-eyed Barney Stinson (wearing a suit, of course!) walking towards me. He stops in front of me, leans into my ear and whispers, "Earlobes."

I nod approvingly, like I did plenty of times before.

He stands back, smiles, and adjusts his tie.

Then I wake up from the dream.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Until now, I laugh at how silly my dream was.



True story.

So, this dream was quite strange. The setting was like a large home with mainly just hallways stretching for long distances (logical, though, within sight) with rooms on each side and paneled windows at the end of each. Multiple floors, probably 3-4. It was of a man and Elie Weisel (to be specific o.o) searching for ghosts with a method similar to Lucid Dreaming, but staying fully awake and having like a 'vision' in which you see the 'ghost.' Elie really wanted to see his mom one last time (At some point, the dream flashbacks into one of his 'memories' from childhood. Not much detail remembered, but it seems as if he was 5-7 years of age with an American-styled home (Backyard w/ swingset) from around the '50s. His mom was a young woman, somewhere from upper 20s to upper 30s. The memory was like a scene from a movie (Kid on swing, laughter;mom pushing;camera is smooth, like slow -> fast -> slow movement (Think Minecraft F8)) The pair is just walking down the halls during the daytime (fully-lit) and Elie has a 'vision' of his mom for a short moment, black and white, low quality, her calling out "Elie...! Elieeeee...!. (Think Fallout 3 'Hot Chick' guiding you to The Vault kind-of vision) He doesn't say anything to the other guy and is both amazed and terrified that this worked. He longs to see her, yet again, so, once the pair move up another floor, he (Maybe I do this part, IK I had control for a second or two) wishes the vision upon himself, and it works. The other guy is opening a room on the right side of the hallway only a few doors down (Second door I believe), and then Elie goes into total flip-the-fuck-out state of mind, as the vision is amazingly vivid. Full color, voice clear-as-a-bell. "Elie!" At this point, he gasps, I think/wish/controllibly-force a heart attack upon the man and to exit the dream, and I do. The exit went back to the hall and was a 3rd-person 'zoom out' from directly above with Elie's face staring blankly up, whole body shaking (heart attack worked? I feel bad now ). The camera moves out, spinning CCW, and I wake up.

~Weird as FUCK~

[COLOR="#2e8b57"]- I was sitting on the water, already kinda knowing that it was a dream. I stood up and still rc'd. It failed, so this is definitely a dream. I tried hard to stand straight (drunkieh xD), the water was wobbling like jelly under my legs. Finally, I got tired of the jelly so I tried to fly. The first attempt failed. The second one was successful.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#483d8b"]- I was walking around in my home village, it was dark. I see A in the distance. We meet in front of the big house and we stop a metre away from eachother. There was this kind of mirror between us (which I think was neat, considering that we're pretty alike). It was glass, so we could both still see eachother. For some reason he ragequit and walked away.
I was like "meh" and suddenly it was daytime. I saw Ma and I asked her to come swimming with me. Apparently it was a warm summerday. She refused, saying she's too lazy. Oh well, I went alone. I was quite far already, when I heard her say in my head "Okay, okay, I'm coming". I don't really remember arriving at the river or even swimming. Or her coming :D[/COLOR]

So the first one is probably a semi lucid. Or it was a real lucid and my recall is just that bad.
Both dreams were longer than that, the lucid had a lot more stuff to it but I can't remember anything.

Ignore the typos. I'm on a mobile device and close to ragequitting as well.

[COLOR="#2e8b57"]lucids[/COLOR], [COLOR="#483d8b"]non-lucids[/COLOR]

So this one's odd, I start off in some kind of bathroom where you take a shower laying/sitting on a mattress that gets dried afterwards. So I dress and walk outside, and see what looks to be a halo reach map and I start somehow fighting 'Hitler' the spider and I run back to the bathroom.
This was a strange one.

I also had one about going to get very odd looking bearings for my skateboard at a shop I've never been to. I have a strangely high number of dreams about skateboards and specifically skateboard wheels. Guess I should put that down as a dreamsign.

I recalled two dreams, very vivid. The first one was what seemed a spring summer day, and I was skating outside of my friend Will's house with Ben & Teja. We stopped skating at took a break in front of Will's house with him when we suddenly heard a big explosion in the distance. It got really windy from where the sound came from. I calmly said; "Well guys, looks like they dropped a Nuke of sorts. Before we all die, what do you regret in life?" Will was up to speak. He said "I regret alot of things in life." I said "Well man, we always have to afterlife. I'm more than confident that there's one of sorts." right when he was about to talk, a huge white light came out of no where, blinding me and my friends, and I died. Death felt strange, and I said in black text "You died." And my vision zoomed out from a computer screen. I was at my schools library, under the sea? Strange, I thought, but instead of grass patches, the little hall ways were connected by a giant plastic tube. I went to the band room, and took a seat. My ex girlfriend, spotted me and greeted me with a hug. I was surprised, because I got the sensed a good chakra coming from her, a loving feeling. I felt Nostalgia of that feeling. She sad down next to me, leaned in, and kissed me. I remember that all to well, it was as if she really did kiss me. I woke up after the kiss, startled. And I felt off the entire rest of the day.

Fragment 1: My high school friends came to the house, which actually looked more like my uncle's house than my own. I suggested that they all go into the basement while I put on clean clothes. I offered pizza to my friends and family before I went upstairs to change. I hugged one of my friends, and I might have gone to a grocery store.

Fragment 2: I was helping to roll up feathers, debris and grass clippings on a field with my friends. The field vaguely reminded me of Green Hill Zone from Sonic. After cleaning, I was holding a tub of fried chicken strips, and I let a buddy of mine take a piece. He chose a piece that was just a couple of coarse hairs attached to a skin flake. The hair and skin reminded me of my pig's, except pink and fried. My friend ate the fried skin and hair, unperturbed.

Fragment 3: I was driving around in my car. I was out on the road at 6:47AM, and the two closest gas stations were closed. I figured that one would open at about 7, so instead of just parking and waiting, I drove back and forth between the two, hoping that one of the gas stations would open before I ran out of gas. I paid for the gas with a credit card.

I often dream about work. The work dream falls into one of two categories; being late/missing work or doing work poorly.

My job involves putting patients to sleep, haha. Seriously, I am an anesthetist.

In my work dreams I either fail to show up for an operation or my patient awakens from anesthesia during surgery. The most traumatic is the dream where the patient awakens. When this happens the patient generally is running around the room and the entire operating room staff is staring at me like Im a horrible person.

In last night's dream, the surgeon asked how the patient was doing. I responded that the patient was fine while I was panicking to give the patient more drugs. The patient kept moving and wasn't staying asleep despite my efforts. Finally, the patient pulled the tube from his mouth (the one that entered his trachea and supported his breathing) and was talking to me. I was trying to talk louder than the patient so that nobody would hear while I frantically tried to resedate him.

In the end, I had to admit the patient was awake. When this happened I was hoping to be strong and deal with whatever punishment I had coming to me. Before anything else happened, I awoke.

First I had a non lucid about Pensive Patrick's bridge and the big bloated whale. I had to cross a bridge and there was a giant bloated whale/sea creature looking thing below me. It was bloated and red and gross. And whenever I tried to cross, it would jump up at me, trying to bite me or something. Finally, frustrated, the last time it jumped at me, I put my hands on it's head and said "You need to shrink down to something more manageable." With each jump, it became smaller and smaller, and more and more like a slightly larger and fluffier version of my black lab, Daisy. Finally it was just a playful dog, and I thought to myself "I can't believe I managed that. DOH I'm lucid!" I immediately went into a building that looked motel-ish. I tried to will it to look like Hogwarts. Sadly, I was blind in one eye, and my walking was all wonky. I remember shouting for more lucidity and vividness. Finally I blacked out completely, but was fully aware that I was still dreaming and still lucid. I could feel myself in my bed, but all balled up in a way that I never am in real life. So I started to slowly rock back and forth, carefully so that I wouldn't accidentally wake up, than I was back in the motel, in one of the rooms. There was a knock at the door and it was a young Snape and some other students. I think I had been calling for him. I kept trying to make the motel look more and more like Hogwarts. It finally did look like one of those outer corridors, but then Snape shrunk down to the size of a little toy. So I did my stretch technique with my hands, which stretched him back into roughly the size of my son lol. Then I woke up.

I had a pretty rough night actually, our ac messed up so I was hot and sweaty and tossing and turning alot. So I was happy even with just a brief lucid, and my efforts to stabilize. Plus I hadn't had a regular old DILD in a while.

Evil Dimension [Non-Lucid]

I was over at D's house with O, this guy JY I knew in 9th grade, and a few other random people. We had entered some other dimension that I don't remember very much about, except that it was... evil. DX There were hornets that would come after me and dig under my skin and start slithering around, and I could feel them in bulges on my skin. I don't... I don't even.... Uggggh.



Anyway, I told D that I couldn't stand being in the evil dimension anymore, so JY and I left. On the way out JY turned into N. We were in some airport-like area, but after walking out the exit we were in a mall. N started talking about getting something to eat, but I can't remember what. I woke up after that.

Black means non lucid
Orange means semi lucid
Blue means lucid
Red means dream characters talking
Purple means possible shared dreaming person
Green means notes

Got it? Great! Enjoy.

Dream #1 Tickling Fiesta.

Im in a huge hotel suite with a bunch of college chicks. There are all different mixtures of women in the hotel room. There is this one girl wearing a Jason Vorhees mask, walking up to the girls and making that whispering sound like in the Jason flicks. She wiggles her fingers as she does it, i guess to let them know she is about to tickle them. She tickles this blond girl while she was on her celphone talking to someone. The girl in the Jason mask tickles her like there is no tommorrow. The blond girl begs her to stop screaming and laughing at the same time. I get up laughing from the couch and head to the kitchen to look for something to eat. After i close the fridge, The girl with the Jason Vorhees mask starts approaching me, wriggling her fingers as she walks slowly towards me.

I tell her to chill as i am getting serious and start backing up in the corner. Other girls walk in egging her on even more yelling..
"DO IT, DO IT, TICKLE HIM, TICKLE HIM!"
The girl in the Jason mask tickles me all over until i wake up laughing in my bed.

Dream #2 Wow, how did you do that?

Im now in a basement at a table with a bunch of the college girls from my previous dream.
We are all sitting around playing cards listening to music, i believe Jimi Hendrix purple haze was playing in the background. One of the girls (Who kinda looks like Sandra Bullock) asked me if i can come outside with her for a min while she smokes her Cigarette. We sit outside on the porch, its night time. She says..
"I love a good smoke and staring up at the stars." Its so beautiful up there.
"Yes it is." Hey let me show you something. I take my finger, and draw up in the night skies. I draw a man and a woman holding hands running across the Skies.
"Wow that is Amazing!"
I then take my finger and draw two birds flying off in the distance.
"Wow, how did you do that?"
"Im an artist, and i like to express my creativity. She gives me a seducing look up and down while puffing her Cigarette and says..
"Mmmhmm i see."
We stare up into the night skies and the dream fades.

Dream #3 Stoned with chicks.

Im in a clouded room getting stoned with a bunch of chicks. (Don't smoke anymore in RL) They are dancing and laughing away all while some Reggaeton music is playing in the background. (Thats all i remember from that dream)

Final dream: Sweetest Taboo.





Im in a bedroom making out with this Carribean chick. That song Sweetest Taboo by Sade is playing in the background. The woman looked carmel complexion, had long sandy brown curly hair, big beautiful brown eyes and full lips. After we both finish satisfying eachother with foreplay and sex, we both roll over and lay there catching our breaths. We look over at eachother and start laughing. The dream fades and i wake up.

Notes: Im happy that i remembered all that i did. Though i could've remembered more. The 2nd dream, i clearly was somewhat lucid..but i won't mark this as a lucid dream. Overall can't complain, its always good getting a little action with the ladies.

Finally had me some brief lucidity! And I do mean brief. However, this is a good sign of things to come

(Fragment)

I'm on a boat of some description. It's fairly square, and has balconies like on a paddle steamer. I remember going inside and seeing a kitchen and a television. I think I got something to eat. My dad was there as well. [Fragment, 0.5 points]

Scene Change

I and my friend J are near a canal. On one side is a huge red brick wall, stretching horizontally for miles. On "our side" of the river are several two storied shops and houses. Several tall black Victorian lampposts and benches line the canal. The floor is a sandstone tile, and looks quite pleasing. There are two arched bridges going over the canal, with people crossing them.

For some reason I hold a pistol in my hand, and it soon becomes apparent why. Across the water I see a group of metro police (half life 2) about to cross the bridge nearest me. I fired into them, taking one down. They instantly drew their batons and began radioing for assistance. The people around us didn't seem to mind.

(Minor Transition)

Night falls, and the police are gone, presumably dead. Since no one's now around, we break into one of the stores. I find some ammunition and supplies. We then decide to leave before more enemies come.

(Minor Transition)

We're walking down a gravel country road in between large hedges, leading away from the city. We climb up on one hedge to find that it forms a huge 'block', if you will, of leaves that we stand on. This stretched up to a farm house, with a beat up pick up truck outside. We then notice the Brotherhood of Steel outcasts torching the area or stomping around menacingly, dressed in black and red power armour.

My friend says to me "What if I do this?" before firing a large energy weapon and laughing. It shoots a huge blue ball towards them and explodes, killing some.

Excrement hits the fan.

What ensues is a brief battle, in which we slaughter the outcasts. Farmers, women and older children come out of the house and offer to join us, all wielding weapons. I pick up a shotgun from near the truck, but for some reason it's fused with another like a weird first person glitch. I throw one away. It's a twin barrelled break action 410. We were attacked by a few more outcasts, prompting me to scout a path in a nearby hedge.

It leads to a field on a hill sloping down before me. The sun is just rising over the horizon. A farmer and a his son step out towards me. Not initially realising the lack of threat, I shoot, thankfully missing them. They're rather miffed, naturally. I then tell them why I'm on edge, panting "You weren't there!" like a grizzled war veteran. [Whole Dream, 1 point]

Scene Change

I'm now lucid. I seem to be looking at me from a weird angle, only seeing concrete on the floor. I seem to be not fully "in the dream" as I seem to be able to feel my physical body dragging me back. I slowly get pulled back and I wake up. [Became Lucid, 5 points] [Fragment, 0.5 points]

I think this is one of those dreams where you've had so many dreams in a row that once you fall asleep you easily recognize you're asleep and dreaming.
Now with pictures!

Non-Lucid Part:
I was with this slightly older, heavy-set guy. In the dream, we weren't together so much that he was like an older brother to me. He told me to come to the backyard with him because he had to show me something.
"It's in the woods, but you always played back there, Ash. So, it will be fine."
I gave him a suspicious look.
"Hey! What? Don't worry."
I followed him into the sparsely crowded woods behind my father's workshop until I started to lag behind him.
"Hurry up, Ashley!"
"Yeah, yeah..."
All of a sudden, he vanished. Far too quick for someone who was just a little farther ahead.
Then, the realization hits me.

Lucid Part:

It is about time I had one of these. Although, I don't think this is what I had in mind...
Pleased, I gaze up at the woods and all the light brown leaves covering the ground. I have no interest in following this guy. He probably doesn't exist anymore to begin with. I turn around, eager to get away from the entire area.
No. The entire dreamscape itself.
I run toward this hill area near my father's building and jump, flying in the air. Funny, how this thing called flight comes so easily to me, yet I only use it for "emergencies" in dreams. I fly forward, past the ugly blue house I call home and decide to dream spin to another dimension. Realizing the consquences if I do not think of a place to be in, I vaguely think of a moor. I don't know why. I think I was thinking about my ancestors, but I don't even know if Scotland and Ireland have moors. Or whatever they are called these days. I read too much old literature to know or care.
Amyways, I spun. If you can call it that. It was more of a graceful, kind of floaty spin. Almost like a pirouette.

I found myself in a...white mansion by the rocky, green tipped edges of a pale grey sea.

I know it was white, because it felt like it was a white. I walked past several windows covered with beautiful white curtains floating in the breeze.

I had a sudden urge to go through a wall at this point. I had heard someone mention in the DV forum how you shouldn't think about the wall itself, but rather the destination. I thought of the word moor again, but I knew I wouldn't get this. How can I see what I have never seen?
Alas, I could not pass the wall. However, the window seemed rather welcoming.
I gently touched the glass pane with my right hand, never using force. I felt the glass turn to a goo, then it gradually succumbed entirely. I gazed out and looked upon a helicopter, a ship, and several cargo trucks by a seemingly endless sea. Some of the men had guns, but I don't think they noticed me. I wonder if they were guards for the mansion's owner.
I looked around, but everything was blurry, to my immense dismay. However...
Oh, yeah. That clarity thing...
"Clarity now!"
I suddenly remembered to look at my hands. They and the scenery got clearer.
"Clarity now!"
Clearer.
I did this several times until the quality of my dream was so detailed and I could the lines in my hands so well, it felt uncomfortable.
"Aw, what the heck. HD-Vision now!"
Okay. Clearest dream ever. Probably even clearer than real life. However, the guards noticed me and started to shoot. I ran away from the window and walked down the hall.
"Bastards. You're lucky I don't use you for my diamond castle."
I notice a door slightly ajar. Peering through, I see a woman with greying hair tied in a long ponytail.
"This is a story about the young master. About a time long gone. About a doll that became his dearest companion."
I looked to the left and saw another room, but one filled with forgotten memories. Yet, also with a sort of unforgotten sadness. There wasn't any death or evil here, but there was a feeling of what might have been. Suddenly, I felt my vision go out--I came as close as you can to fainting in a dream.
I heard voices, traveling further and further back.
Where am I going? Am I traveling in time or is this just me going to a different dreamscape?
These thoughts raced through my head as the grey-haired spoke to another person--I can't recall who.
"I'm sending her back in time. Maybe she will be able to talk to and warn the young master."
"But, her body is right there."
The woman smirked.
"In body, yes. In spirit, however, she is crossing time itself."
I heard nothing else.

I arose from the floor, slightly dazed, and not noticing the boy in a white seat faced away from me. I walked, or rather stumbled, into the other room. I looked around and didn't feel sadness, but a potential for it. I gazed over and saw a hideous doll with orange hair-no, it wasn't Chucky. I was a bit frightened, but gulped down my fear and walked over to the doll. Gently picking him up, I realized that the doll was alive. He looked at me and then looked around. I smiled at him and, as gently as I could, said,"Sweetie, I'm looking for your owner..."
I was startled to see that he had changed from a hideous doll to a cute one. I am guessing that no one except his owner treated him with kindness because of all this.
"I...I've traveled from very far away, yet not so far."
He looked interested and I gazed past the canopy bed behind us. Past all of the things that crowded the room. Past everything and anything.
"From a dream long gone. Or perhaps from a dream just beginning. Who knows what real life truly is."
I look back at him, and I see that he is intrigued.
"I'm not from this world. But, I assure you, I will help your friend. Regardless of what happened and how little I know."
He looked towards the other room and his gaze stayed there.
"He's over there?"
The doll nodded and I gently put him back in his little white rocking chair. I thank him and walk out.
I walk towards the round, white table and take a seat. Finally, I notice the orange-haired boy. The grey-haired woman is there as well, except her hair is a mousy brown.
"What are you doing here,"the boy asked. He is well aware I am not from the area or even that time.
"I'm from...Well, that isn't important. I think that woman wanted me to save you."
I pointed to the woman who now sat across from me at that white table and she nods.
"Yes, master. Something happens to you, and I sent this young woman to help save you."
Would you like to know why he needed saving?
Me, too.
Because, unfortunately, I was woken up!

I became lucid from the start of the dream (Lucid - 5 Points) but I RC'd anyway just to make sure (RC - 2 Points). My first thought was to fly for some reason. I launched myself into the air and had the same problem as felicity, I floated slowly back down and hovered above the ground. I worked out that this was still flying and flew around for a bit (Flying - 4 Points). Then I lost lucidity and I ended up talking to some water and meeting a princess. The the dream ended. (Full dream - 1 Point)

I was on some kind of pirate ship and we were alerted to monsters nearby, but we couldn't see them. We were all given small communication devices and then sent down into the bowels of the ship. We found that there was a small hole where the monsters or in and took some of our supplies. We got rid of them an boarded up the whole just in time for the end of the dream. (Full dream - 1 Point)

I was making myself some toast and my toaster was acting strangely. Unfortunately I took no notice and happily munched through my toast in bed ^_^ then my cat came in and pulled the covers off of me, she wanted to go outside even though it was late at night. I was like -_- finnee but then when we got outside it was daylight and for some reason I decided o go exploring. I found a new geocache with some co-ordinates in it and I got really excited as I ran back home to see where the co-ords lead. Then I remembered that it was a Tuesday an I still had to go to college then the dream ended. (Full dream - 1 Point)

I was on my paper round and I couldn't quite make out one of the names on the papers. I asked a passerby and he had no clue either. Then his whole family came out and wished him happy birthday. I brought a card out of nowhere and have it to him before heading on my way. The dream ended shortly after with me still not having a clue who the paper was for. (Full dream - 1 Point)

I also had a false awakening

Lucid - 5 Points
RC - 2 Points
Flying - 4 Points
Full dream x4 - 4 points

TOTAL = 15 Points
