non-lucid

Ok, due to the fact that I decided to have cereal (I was hungry, don't hate) and called my girlfriend (she had a nightmare) before I wrote this, I remember significantly less >_<

medieval time era. I'm in a party of probably ten or so. It started out in a small village, but things took a turn for the worst when the first sword was swung. We had no choice but to head for the hills and run. I don't know if it was our fault or theirs, but our men were dying and I had to get them out of there. Once in the forest it's just a matter of covering our tracks and silently killing all stranglers who try to find us. Since the ratio was like two swordsmen to eight archers, this wasn't a problem. We came into a clearing, thinking we were safe, only to get ambushed by two dozen men. I escaped. All of my men were either captured as prisoners or slaughtered in the field.

I don't know whether to be happy because I escaped, or sad because I lost all my men :/

My alarm clock woke me up, I had totally forgotten about it. The first thing that I did after waking up is to turn it off, then I tried not to move and try to remember if I had any dreams. I just couldn't remember any. I tried for 10-15 minutes, then I said to myself "Oh well, I'll just go and take a shower". After these words I remembered that I was washing my hair in a dream and started to remember things before that and kept remembering things before until I've got to the beginning of the story. Actually I think that I had 2 dreams, they were similar, but I think they were 2 separate dreams, anyway, the first one started like this - it was some kind of a party, I would say that it was prom, because everything was beautiful and there were adults, it was definitely not a party at someone's house. I was running around looking for something or someone until I found this girl and I said to myself "wait, I know her, what is she doing here?". Her name is Valeria, she was my classmate a long time ago(year 6-8 I think), I haven't talked to her in a really long time in real life, so I was really surprised to see her. We talked a lot, I don't remember about what or for how long we were talking, but she said that she really misses me. It is really weird because we have never been close friends or just friends, classmates - that's it. Instantly after talking to her, I remember noticing another 2 people that I know, I run up to them, it was my another classmate Masha, we were classmates for a long time until I've moved in England and also her boyfriend from year above was there. And same with them, I didn't talk to them that much before, we've never been friends, so it is really weird that I had a dream about them now. Anyway, we talked and they said that they miss me and gave me a little present, it was a book, I don't remember anything about how this book looked or title, but I was really happy for some reason, I don't really read books, but I was truly happy. After that I hugged her boyfriend like he was my bro, like bro hug, that's it. Next part feels like another dream. Me and Zac(my brosif) are running somewhere in hurry, like we are late for something. Finally we got in some kind of building, that reminds me of school and it was prom again. We went inside, took our coats off and left them on coat hangers, but for some reason Zac took my coat and left it on another coat hanger, anyway, after that we went straight to a toilet, there was this dude sitting in the middle of the room on some kind of 1 meter high platform that was surrounded by urinals. Apparently Zac and this dude knew each other, but I don't think that I have ever met him before. Next part is when me and Zac are taking a piss a this dude sitting there is looking directly at my penis in a really weird way, I felt really uncomfortable and just wanted to finish my business really fast. The weird is that me and Zac had no shoes on, only socks and floor was covered in piss, so we grabbed towels to wipe our feet, after that we went to wash hands. Zac suddenly started to wash his face and hair, I looked at him and said "Fuck this!" and started to wash my hair too (this is the first part that I remembered in the morning when I woke up). While i was washing my hair some adult came in and said something about us being late on which Zac replied something like "No, we are not late!", so this adult said "oh, okay...". After that I was standing near this dude that was in a toilet in the first place, he was chewing on his own hair(he had long brown hair, not really long, but long enough to get it in his mouth). I said "Oh, my hair is too short to do this!". Straight after that a lot of random food appeared in this toilet, so I remember myself eating grapes. After that this adult asked us "Where is ..." and I don't really remember about whom he was asking us, but something tells me that he was asking about Zac's mum. He was staring outside through the window and became really upset. There was a little chat between them, that I don't remember. And after that I woke up. Maybe a dream would continue if not my alarm clock.

I don't remember at what time I was lucid, but I guess I was right from the start. I looked around. I saw that I was in some kind of city. I didn't like it I felt alone. I decided to run up to a nearby eighteen wheeler parked in front of me and ask about my dream guide, since that is one of my ultimate goals. I started to run, but it seemed like my legs wouldn't work! It was like I was running in slow motion. I tried to believe I could run, anything is possible in a lucid dream.

I finally made my way to the window of the large truck. A pudgy woman sat in the front. She looked down at me with a frown. I quickly asked her, "Do you know where I might find my dream guide?"

"We have nothing like that here," she said. "Come back with a couple hundred dollars and maybe you can apply to this school here." she pointed in front of me at a school not too far away. It looked like a large private school.

I sighed and walked away. Moving on, I decided to explore. I looked into a nearby forest. I walked down the slope, trying not to trip on any rocks or limbs. Then the thought came to me that I should stabilize. I remember Mzzkc's method of stabilizing, taking a bite out of a tree. I didn't take a bite out of it, I just picked a small limb off of a tree and tried to take a bite out of that. It felt really weird in my mouth, like it wasn't supposed to belong there.

It only raised my vividness just a tad. I continued on. I found a small shack, well it wasn't really a shack. It was just an awning with people under it watching a TV. There were four guys. One I recognized, my youth leader. Only he was skinnier, and was growing out this long gotee looking thing. I watched what they were watching. It looked like some kind of show that was supposed to embarrass the people on it. The first person was a girl who was supposed to sing a song, a Taylor Swift song actually. She sang horrible. Next there was a girl that was supposed to dance a weird dance blindfolded.

The dream ended shortly after.

Working in the Mall
I remember walking around a mall, looking for something to do. I eventually found some kind of little restaurant with pool tables and such. I found a waiter who looked just like Gibby off of iCarly. He told me about a waiter job he had to do in Chicago that got him embarrassed. I don't remember the story though. He was telling me this while leaning over a counter.

The Lesson
I was at my mom's house with a couple of guys I knew and one of my friends. I'm not sure what we did, but we did something bad. That resulted in my dad teaching us all a lesson. I was supposed to drive a car or something. I got in the car, ready to drive it. I started it and was going. Once again, I forgot where the breaks and gas pedal were. I found them.

As I was going, I was trying to remove the stuff on the dashboard so I could actually see. I heard my dad in the back go, "Good. Good." I swerved to get into the right lane, while almost hitting a couple of cars. Instead of the breaks, I hit the gas, and I sped up a tree on the side of the road. The car fell back down on its side. I got out of the car and said I was okay. It scared me to death though.

Then my dad had to drive us home, showing us all the obstacles that he could easily maneuver or something.

My friends and I are walking through a college skyscraper. We're trying to find the pool for some reason. We get to the roof and there is a person who says something to us and then his hair turns into wings and he flies away. It switches to more of a movie about two brothers, seems like a comedy. Their father makes them go to the same roof, and they grab a rope hanging from a helicopter. The helicopter starts to fly off so they're left hanging by the rope, flying through the air. I was thinking "Man, that's so unrealistic. There's no way they'd be able to hold on to that." The rope breaks and one of the brothers starts to fall, but the other one tries to catch him. He starts swinging back and forth, trying to catch his (ridiculously long) ponytail.

There's this cute girl that I did my interview with when I applied at WalMart. In the dream, we started dating but she got upset because she found furry stuff on the internet via my computer (Which is funny, because she's a furry.) All I remember is just trying to find her so we could talk it out.

It's the end of the world, and my people are slowly starting to die off. The planet has been swept by a disease that seems incurable. We've tried every medicine that we could think of, even creating new ones in our labs. The only survivors are members of my family.

But there was one thing that we didn't try.

I don't remember how I found her, but I was amazed at what I saw. A tree in the middle of the forest, with her bark wrapped around a person as they slept. No, not sleeping. In a sort of meditative state, maybe? I just stood there and stared at her, and she spoke to me. I felt an unexplainable bond with this tree, like she was a daughter to me. She told me that the person had been inflicted with the disease and that they came to her for help. She wrapped her bark around them and helped them, curing them of the disease.

I went to my family, telling them of my discovery. My grandmother was very interested in the tree, as well as some other members of my family that I didn't really know that well. My daughter, however, was getting upset with how much time I spent with the tree.

Skip forward a bit; my daughter caught the disease. I told her to go to the tree to cure herself, but she wouldn't listen. I continued to beg her, but one day, she was gone.

Help me, father.

I'm in a space station. A voice echoes through my head and I run as fast as I can, trying to keep myself from crying so that I can see.

Help me.

I'm running through the aisles of what looks like a supermarket, looking for my daughter. Suddenly, I realize that the voice in my head isn't my daughter's. It's the tree's. I continue to run, looking for my daughter. She comes first. I didn't want her to think that I loved the tree more.

I find my daughter leaning against the ends of one of the aisles, maybe crying. She's sick. Really sick. I hug her and tell her that I love her, and that everything will be okay.

I find the tree. She is in the space station, replanted here. She doesn't seem to mind, but then why was she calling for help?

No, she didn't need help. She was leading me to my daughter.

I convince my daughter to let the tree help her. She refuses to let the tree wrap the bark around her, but she just sleeps while leaning against her. I think it works. I think she's been cured.

(This dream, although there was a dream between it and when I woke up, and although I'm posting this about an hour after I woke up, still hurts my heart. I won't be forgetting this feeling anytime soon. Is this the feeling of fear a father gets when he thinks he's going to lose his daughter? If so, I pray for all of the fathers out there who have felt this way.)

My friends and I are playing a racing game, something about fire and how someone was drinking alcohol so they exploded or something.

I had a dream about work, where there were 2 machines in the shop. Someone was telling me about a problem one was having. In the process, I bumped the machine causing an error that I didn't have time to fix because my shift was over. So I went to our locker area. It seemed like people from all 3 shifts were just working on day shift with me, it was so crowded. I had to wait my turn to get to my locker. Finally when I could look for my locker, I notice it is missing. As I start to question where could it be? My coworker Drew says he is keeping it safe. So I trust him and don't worry about it.

I went back to sleep, and just had fragments now. A rancher was showing me that he was keeping cows in the swampy areas. One cow per fenced in area, where the area was smaller than usual but enough to supply food for the cow. When I awoke this time I could hear the song, The Thing that Should Not Be by Metallica playing inside my head. Sure my alarm was going off and I was hitting snooze, but I have the radio station set to 103.5 fm, which only plays christian music.

I had this dream yesterday, but didn't upload it until now.

I was in a wide open field. There was a guy there wearing these fake brown wings on his arms. I looked at them very closely, thinking I might want to replicate them in my next lucid. *But that thought quickly left my mind, and he decided he was going to teach us how to fly with them he gave us a run-through of how to use them, and then brought us to a place to use them. It was a small pool in someone's backyard. We were to swim across the pool and grab a backpack on the other side, then jump up and we would fly if we were fast enough. No one was, so no one flew

Then just as I was going to give up, I realized how dumb swimming before taking off was. I asked if I could try it just by running and jumping, but before I could try, I appeared inside a castle. The castle was huge and very clean. It was all white with some pastel colors as accents. Madoka from Madoka Magica was there. She wanted to try flying, so we let her, and she succeeds.

My wife and I were looking out our back window at a large grassy field. The weather looked nice and we noticed a strange man off in the distance. He was a large, older man, looking happy and was trying to skip through very dense grass. It began raining and soon the water was flooding the field. The man was soon swimming through a rough, open expanse of choppy water. We started laughing at how crazy this all was.

A boat approached and we noticed several people on board. One of them was Anthony Bourdain. From that point the dream turned into an episode of No Reservations, doing a special from the Amazon river. They were all drinking and spewing forth the pseudo-philosophical dribble that they normally fill each episode with. The beverages they were drinking were laced with some sort of hallucinogenic, Bourdain relishing every sip.

I remember i was in some kind of a party when someone hands me a key to a room i slowly walked towards the door there was a square with 3 lines on it. Inside of the room was pretty huge with over 30 beds on one bed there was this naked girl waiting for me. I started walking towards her seeing the dream fade i started licking her private parts . And then poof! everything gone.

I think it was going to be fun i just need to control it better

I Dreamt i was working in a big warehouse. My old friend jonny had been to my car for some reason cant remember why. when he came back i saw my camera bag around his shoulder.
"Is that my camera?" i said to him. He replied very sheepishly but honestly "yeah, it is" i started following him pressing him with more questions quite sternly. "What else have you taken" "Give it back"

*Scene missing*

It must have been the end of my shift at this point as i was walking outside to my car.
It was very dark.
I looked at my car and noticed jonny had left the passenger door open (Idiot! ) so i looked inside and surprise surprise, the footwells were pooled up with water.
I remember trying to scoop the water out with the floor mats. The driver side floor mat was espesially muddy. I remember Forcing little mud cylnders out of the holes in the floormat, it was also ripped in the middle, bloody jonny.

When i raised my head out the footwell from cleaning them the dreram scene had changed amazingly.
Suddenly instead of being in a dark car park late at night i was in some kind of desert watching a football match from my car.
One of the people playing was jonny, But he was an old man. When i looked at his face i was having strange flash back like moments of his young face and now his old face.
Shortly after the dream ended.

I am trapped in the Antarctic, the lower half of my body encased in a block of ice. Somehow I enlist the help of two penguins to help peck the ice until I am free. Eventually, I get my entire body out and continue my mission.

I reach a lake area abundant in cliffs and retrieve my hang-gliding equipment from my backpack. With the equipment in place, I prepare myself for a powerful gust of wind to lift me. I begin running, and at just the right time I jump, taking flight. I soar several metres above the ground, and the incredible winds keep me in the air for what seems to be a miraculous amount of time. I glide to the cliffs and stop to look at my surroundings, only to take off immediately after towards and across the small lake. As I am gliding, I notice two women on the ground. I manoeuvre my way towards them and stop right at their side.

The women are dressed in short brown dresses, and I wonder how it is that they are able to handle the cold (I am quickly reminded of a man who was able to increase his body temperature through meditation, and think that the women must do the same). They tell me they are part of a tribe that is currently situated across the hills, and they were sent to investigate the large flying animal they saw above the lake. Relieved that what they thought to be some kind of monster is only me, they invite me to their tribe to eat with them.

Some more Katie fragments, and some mom fragments.

Side Notes: I didn't sleep well last night, so my recall is spotty at best. I think the reason I'm dreamign about Katie so much lately is because I'm constantly paranoid about her throwing me under the bus. She does that, especially if she gets in trouble for something. The first, and only thing she knows how to do when she gets yelled at, is to reach into her mind for the first person she can blow the whistle on, regardless if what she says is true or not. Rather than own up to her own mistakes, she tries to dilute the guilt by incriminating others. WHAT A SWELL GAL!!!

The dreams about my mother lately are all arguments. We almost never bicker about crap, and the dream arguments usually lead to lucidity. I'm guessing this is my subconscious being desperate to get lucid again. /therapy

• Noelle and i are at a movie theater. We had just finished watching one movie and another is about to start. This one stars NPH and another actor I like, but ends up being really bad.
• a book of drawings
• a bunch of people dancing to that "ah skeet skeet" song in a line dance format

• Adam, Diana, and Joel al come to visit me at the same time, which is unfortunate becuase they do not get along.
• I am practicing dancing on a stripper pole.
• Being chased by a wolf.
• Books set in a Victorian era.

I was on a fancy train that had several rooms, kind of like the train in Harry Potter, but bigger, since the rooms had beds. There was a girl on the train who I knew was evil (despite the fact that she was only about 6). I knew I had to get off the train somehow. I tried to trick the girl into thinking an M&M was a bomb, and left it on a window. Then I appeared outside the train, hanging off the top, and the train was inside a tunnel. Then the dream skips a bit and I'm in the room I started in again, hiding behind the bed from the girl. Then the bed disappears and there was a puzzle on the ground. A bunch of other people were now in the room, putting pencils and pens into the puzzle, as if they were peices.

Normal Dream
Lucid Dream

Night 28

First time I had 3 LD's in one night, they were all incredibly short though, but I'm not complaining .

I. School is just letting out and I am walking down the hallway, it is very packed, and I turn around because I think I forgot something of mine. As I am walking back the vice-principle stops me and starts yelling at me for punching a locker and denting it. I did not hit a locker so I was upset when he was all in my face, I start arguing with him, and I remember showing him my knuckles and like "See, my hands are not even sore or red, I did not do it.". At this point, I think he knows he was wrong because he stops arguing and kinda like puts his head down in shame. I let out an aggravated sigh and walk past him. It was right here where I just stopped and was like, "Wait a minute, what am I doing? This is a dream.", and I do a RC and it works. I turned back around and seen a girl I knew from school and I walk up to her and say hi, but the dream start to fade already, and I was rubbing my hands together but the dream ended.

II. I was at a birthday party, it was at my house, and I remember walking around to my back deck where all the kids were playing at. The adults were there just talking, and somehow I just told myself that I was dreaming, I did a RC and it worked again. As soon as I become lucid, the dream starts to fade again, so I rub my hands but I wake up anyway.

III. This is a DEILD from the last LD. So I woke up, and laid completely still and tried to fall back to sleep into the dream. Next thing I know, I am right back on the deck with everyone, and I instantly know that I am dreaming. The dream was not fading this time so I was happy, so I walk out into my lawn and look up at the sky, I noticed it was night this time around while the previous dream was in the day. I was looking at the moon and I wanted to fly, I jump up in to the air and see myself flying, it worked! I started going into the air, but from the general excitement and relief that it was working, the dream started to fade. There was nothing I could do, next thing I know the dream was over.

IV. Some dream about an amusement park and some airport runway. I hardly remember it.
