non-lucid

I was at a Chinese restaurant with my little brother. We ordered what we wanted, but the lady taking our order kept getting confused. Mike wanted noodles dipped in frosting, but the lady sent out chicken. My order (sesame chicken) was fine, but she kept screwing his up. It reminds me of a dream I had when I was a waiter, actually.

My dreams seemed to happen early in the morning today.

I was at a technology school. There were all these different floor to the school and I ended up getting stuck on the top floor. There were crowds of people in these hallways and these section of elevators that looked like space shuttles that launched into outer-space. It was dark and dim and there was a greenish sci-fy glow to everything. I knew somehow that I had to get to the bottom of this building that seemed like a school but had some sort of other use, it was really eerie. I somehow got to a less crowded part of this other floor that made me freakout a bit. I wanted out of the building and out of the situation where elevators where the only option to get out.

After this, I ended up in a different situation. I was with someone that looked like my cousin and close friend combined. Somehow this was both of them. We were going to see a movie but somehow there was a confusing situation where we got lost/didn't have any money/and we were just overwhelmed. It was really hot outside. So hot that this person with me who was bi-racial skin turned pinkish red from the heat. This was a reality check, but it wasn't an obvious one. we ended up finding my mom who picked us up and took us home after we had walked around a mall area with a movie theater for what seemed like hours getting nothing done and having absolutely no fun.

the next dream was where there was an event happening. It first started out that this event was run by the military and they were going to shoot missiles on our own country. I was flying around looking for answers to why this was happening. They launched the missiles and I saw the missile explode from a distance, but then it was like I was watching all this in a movie theater. the event turned around, we were celebrating culture. Most of it was very festive and involved people cos-playing as there favorite characters, mostly from japan culture. I was lost, both in my mind and in the situation. I was wondering about why I haven't been dreaming about family and if I have why didn't I stick with them for long (they also didn't appear to be family). After I was done thinking about this I spotted a DC schoolmate that I have no recollection of knowing in RL. She grabbed onto me and told me that she had to find someone else too. We got caught in this crowd/parade of people that were going a certain direction towards an event or something to that cause. I was still very disoriented. This girl held onto me for a very long time making sure I did not loose her. I was thinking about my relation to her. At this time I did not know who she was but she looked familiar. It was like my mind was putting people I have seen before faces together to create a unique DC. It was like we were being pulled by a tide of people passing by. While with this girl things started to turn into a memory, like when I was in elementary school. I lost the girl somehow and was alone on a school field trip with different schools. It was like a school field trip but other schools were involved too. You could tell this was true because every student from a different elementary school wore a certain colored shirt with the school logo on it. I was apparently one of the students, I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade. It was time to leave the field trip place which was like Peter Piper Pizza and a museum in one. It was hectic because people were still hungry after lunch, some people were upset because they didn't get buy anything, and others had already lined up to get on the buses. The dream ended where I was standing next to a counter that had food and beverages while I was looking at kids leaving which consisted of sitting in a chair in a row that was separated by each school and disappearing in thin air while sitting in this chair. Before the dream ended for good, I looked at this shelf that had soda on it. It was separated by flavors but it was all the same brand. The brand was called "Dad's soda" I thought it was a generic brand and thought about how it was different. I then woke up, slowly.

I've forgotten to write this couple past days, as I'm going to sleep a bit sporadically. I have barely mantained my recall streak, which now streches to 17 days. I have one long dream from the past picked to write here next, but as I am tired and want to get to bed asap, I'm going to share the short dream I had last night.

Toilet Paper
Date: January 17th, 2012
Lucid: No

I was hanging out with one of my former buddies. He isn't my buddy any more, in fact I hate him these days, but for some reason I was following him around as we walked all over the place. He had a bicycle and I walked along. We came to the center of my home village (it's a really small place, just a church, shop, bank and the post office). One of my former classmates from high school (which ended for me back in 2007) was walking away from the bus stop, as if he had been to school and just got back with the bus. There have been tons of dreams I've had where I've been back in high school despite it ending nearly five years ago. Again this made me think whether I missed the school. Then I remember thinking that it was supposed to be some holiday, but apparently it wasn't.

Anyway I walked past my classmate and kind of felt badass for skipping school. My ex-buddy continued downhill away from the center of the village and I was following him despite not knowing where the hell we were going. He had said to me something before we continued, but I don't remember what it was.

All the sudden some guy with a powerful motorcycle sped past me, just avoiding hitting me. Then he leaned as close to the ground as possible and sliced the bicycle from beneath my ex-buddy. I just watched how the bicycle got smashed and wasn't worried about my ex-buddy - it was a very clean hit, and as it turned out, the guy did it on purpose. Such stunts wouldn't be possible in real life, obviously.

I didn't know the guy with the motorcycle. After making my ex-buddy fall off his bicycle he stopped and came to talk to us. I asked why he did that. Apparently my asshole ex-buddy had taken some of his money or something. Then I had the urge to compliment him for the nice skills he had with the motorcycle, but for some reason I didn't say anything. I guess I was a bit intimidated of him. He seemed a cool, if a bit simple guy.

All the sudden he had some toilet paper rolls in his hands. He throw three of them for me and seemed to gesture like they were the reward. For what? I hadn't done anything. Besides, some reward. Then again, you always need toilet paper. Meanwhile some people had gathered all over the place. Everybody was looking at me with my hands full of toilet paper. I asked if I should juggle with them jokingly, but nobody got the joke, instead I got a serious answer "no."

I accidentally dropped one of the rolls. I tried to look for it in the ground, but I guess the dream was a bit unclear as I didn't find it. I also felt silly for looking for some toilet paper, so I just let go.

Some time passed and something happened. People started moving on. I noticed my muscles being stiff and all and said that "all this standing made me stiff". I soon added "I guess it still beats just sitting down all day". There was some girls in the background. For some reason I seemed to care about what they thought about what I said and wondered about it.

That's about it. That's nothing special really, but just nice to have something more recent here once in a while.

[I]Relatively normal dreaming, I'd say.[/I]

[B]1.[/B]It's another Christmas/holiday party dream. Initially beginning in an old family room, the festivities gradually found themselves to be in more of a large hotel ballroom.

The main detail I recall is approaching a little cousin on "her level" and confronting her about why she feels she can get away with hitting and speaking hatefully to others. Our back-and-forth logical dispute quickly became the main point of attention within the party. It ended with her pinky promising not to pinch people again, "forever," and everyone in the room went nuts like it's midnight on New Years.

That's when I tried to make my way outside the french doors and to the restrooms. The hallway felt a bit like that of a high school.


[B]2.[/B] And as I was writing "her level," I remembered an earlier dream. I was at a friend's place and as I opened her front door, a cat came inside and ran through her living room and out her porch door. Her cat proceeded to follow and also escape outside. The scene consisted basically of me trying to recover her kitty. And then I was giving it a bath in an invented, very tiny space between her living room and porch. It ended with me in the bath myself.

Dream.Lucid.Comments/awake

Something about some talent show, I got a sudden urge to run through a dark forest at night. I had a flashlight with me. The forest contained a bears and wolfs, but I just ran past them, even jumped over one of the wolfs. Finally after running for 5 minutes, I arrived to a backyard. The backyard looked exactly like mine. Suddenly two wolves charged towards me, but I started kicking them, then I leaped over them. An afro-american man came to the scene with a chainsaw, but somehow he knew why I kicked his dogs. (The wolves were his dogs) He dropped the chainsaw and laughed, then I suddenly knew it was a dream. Well did a little stabilising, then I (for no reason) pushed him, he flew a little and laughed. He pushed me back I flew way more. I asked him how he did it. He started teaching me about using elements. (Possible DG?) After a while of teaching, my brother showed up and he started throwing logs at me. For the first time in LDs I super jumped. Managed to jump on my roof, but I fell down. Started losing the dream.

Well that was my first DJ entry. I will be posting more of my lucids and awesome dreams.

I can remember a small segment of one of the dreams I had last night. It took place at my dads old house. I had a penguin balloon that I was showing off to everybody some people I knew others I did not. I told someone I was calling it pengin and i said its spelled the same just without the u. Their reply was that penguin was spelled pengeine and i was wrong for using the u. I didn't question the persons spelling and assumed I was wrong. Eventually I handed it off to someone else who just let it go. I was worried I was going to lose it but it got stuck in a tree. Someone else got it down from the tree for me. That's all I remember from that dream.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I started to remember more dreams as I was typing the first 3.

Dream 1:

I'm inside some area where there are several mini-water thanks. The whole setting has a brown color to it with shades of black etc. I think the floor had a little water on it.

There were these guards that looked similar to the ones you see in MGS2 when you get to the part where you're in Arsenal Gear.



I think I'm spectating what's happening or playing as the person. I try to shoot some guards, and I think a few die from the bullets, but then it gets harder to shoot them.

I tried going for head shots on them, but somehow the bullets didn't work, probably because they had those helmets, but it should've worked either way because in the actual game their armor wasn't an issue at all.

There were a few times where the guards would alert that there's an intruder, and I would shoot a few of them before they made a final report to HQ. Then one guard manages to succeed to call more backup.

I can't remember what else I was doing in the dream.

Dream 2:

I'm inside of a store and I'm running inside and then I as I'm running, I do a dive shot to the floor because I'm hiding from some random DC eating a piece of cheddar cheese or something (the thing they were eating looked dark yellow/ light orange).

Then I think I go back outside and head for a vehicle to go into, the whole setting was set at night.

All I remember for that one.

Dream 3:

I'm playing Resident Evil 4 again, and I'm still not sure if I was playing as Ada Wong(she wears a long red dress) or actually am her. I do know that I was playing Separate Ways though.



I started out in the village and normally you start out near the church where you're trying to help Leon not get over killed by the zombies coming inside the house he's locked himself in.

I run a little bit near to the right to a location where all zombies would come in one at a time (I think it's an actual method called the Spartan method or something that you could use as Leon so you won't get raped by zombies), and I see the chainsaw guy come a bit too early. He comes after me and I try shooting him with the Chicago Typewriter, which should've killed him easily, but he just keeps coming after me.





(Never in my mind did I think that if I shot him in the knee instead, I could've done a fan kick and do more damage than the shit damage the Chicago Typewriter was unleashing in this dream).

He gets close to me and he starts cutting Ada Wong's head off slowly with his axe, of course Ada is trying to resist, and I even get to shoot the guy one more time before he chops all of her head off.

I didn't see a game over though, it just restarted by itself. I'm back in the village and I decided to run like hell to the entrance to get to the village, and then turn around and just started to shoot all of the zombies. The Chainsaw guy (Dr. Salvador) is running incredibly fast compared to the actual game.

He's just running like a retard towards me, and he's not even holding the chainsaw right, he's holding it like a sword I think when he's running (if he kept it up, he'd probably cut himself off).

I aim the gun at him, but I can't remember what happened next.

Ada Wong...lady in red....the signs are getting more obvious now for me.

Dream 4:

I'm inside a house and the house across from me is having their music on really loud. Some DC said they were playing Muslim music.

Dream 5:

I see Toguro at 85% of his power (in the English dub of Yu Yu Hakusho) and Sensui in his Sacred Energy Armor. The dream was a bit random, it involved helping Sensui kill Toguro, and then he would be facing me I think.



Toguro was about to shoot someone, probably me, I don't know, but Sensui is right behind him.

I don't know what else happened but Sensui was talking to me about a group of people called "Naturalist" or something like that?

Dream 6:

I'm Snake again from MGS2 in his outfit when he used the alias Pliskin. I think I'm from the tanker level, the first level I believe, and I had to shoot some guards from above. Then someone tells me that those guards need to stay alive.



So I had to dash towards the guards that fell onto ground level who were above and inject some kind of reviving aid to wake them up before they died. I had to inject them quick because in my mind there was a timer somewhere on the syringe I was using, so the injections weren't really accurate, I even saw a small black hole when I took the syringe out of one guard.



I immediately go to the far right end of the ship and hide in a cardboard box, but then it turns into a towel, so I quickly had to move my body to cover my whole body. Then I saw a towel to the left of me and covered myself even more.

As the guards were waking up, some lady who looks like a girl I knew in my AP Government class, let's call her "Dian" I think she was doing some kind of fancy dance flinging her wrists smoothly in front of them, and as they were recovering, they're wondering what the hell is going on.

Dream 7:

My father is saying that I should get familiar with the terms my friends are using and says "Boatski." I knew something was wrong here and asked him, "Don't you mean Broski?" And then he has that expression that said "Ooooh" and laughs in embarrassment.

He leaves, and I see a Blackberry Phone with some small yellow objects attached with clear tape on the bottom. (I guess he was trying to make a Boat out of a Blackberry?)

I remember this dream better that usual, probably because I woke up right after it and remembered to take the time and go trough it. Other things happened before this, but they are too hazy to gather in a text. I didn't notice it was a dream at any point, but I didn't think it was real either. A movie perhaps, that I was immersed in.


I was walking on a curved ridge with water on both sides, an ocean on the right, I believe, and a lake on the left. There was a temple, or a shrine but a large one, on the left side of the ridge, halfway in water.

It was a rather beautiful old building with white marble pillars and I stopped to have a look. It was dark and I didn't see far towards the lake, the water was still. After looking around I heard a voice proclaim that the temple was devoted to an ancient, powerful creature, and on the table in the middle of the temple, large scratch marks appeared.

Behind me, there was a large dragon-like creature, a large lizard with wings and bone spikes in it's tale. (These kinds of things happen in movies, no reason to be afraid.) I had a sword, or maybe a dagger is more like it, and I faced the creature, standing on the ridge a bit farther from the temple.

It approached and tried to swing its tail at me. I tried to cut it while backing away, teleporting a bit further on the ridge. I didn't even touch it, and it came flying over the water. It came toward me and for some reason, crashed to the ground, causing me to fall next to it.

I was a bit disappointed I couldn't beat the lizard. A swarm of daggers appeared flying, sent by my friends and protectors, leaving behind a golden glow in the air, took a dive into the sea and finally hit the lizard trough its back.

The lizard complained that they shredded some organ. I felt a bit sorry and woke up, the alarm was ringing.

Dream 1
I was back at my old highschool. I was looking around and noticing all of the attractive new students. I was then talking to some the girls I used to go to school with and I noticed that they kept eyeing me. Later there was an assembly and I stood up and waved at people behind me in the crowd. I accidentally created a wave in the crowd, then everybody got excited.


Dream 2
I was driving a RV around some back water country area and I was drifting it around a downhill winding dirt road. At the bottom a guy with a rifle was pointing it at me. I tried to grab the barrel but he kept pointing it at me. I eventually broke the barrel off. I went inside to the building and there were two chicks inside chilling on two separate beds. I got some hand action and then I woke up.

||Clarity and recall does seem to increase with the increase of time between food eaten and bed time. I am going to continue to increase the amount of time in between and also decrease food intake and quality||

I just wanted to sleep...been dozing off all day. Last night was the first night in a long time I remember not randomly waking up.

I remember something about trying to get a device fixed in an office, and because I didn't file the report, it obviously got worse. There was something else about Rocco Botte and zombies. The part I do remember however....

Involved me at some bar. I was sitting at a table with AM, and I was trying my hardest to hook up. From the looks of the table, she's had like five rum and cokes, and there's no telling where I'm at, but I have a feeling the place is going to be closed soon. I went in for a kiss on the cheek, and got denied. "Oh no, I just saw you as a friend", she explains after pushing me away. I got up and headed towards the door. I needed some food because I don't know how drunk I thought I was. This one guy had pizza on his table, but all of it had been half eaten. I head outside, and it's daytime.

Not only that, the cannon goes off, and I have to salute the flag because it's going down. I see some people in airforce uniforms walk off while the flag is still being lowered and I'm just shocked. There a group of people who also start walking before the song ends. WTF is up with these people? Anyways, I need a pencil and there are a bunch on this stair case. Some woman starts talking to me and ask me about myself and what not. I tell her that I'll be getting out of the Army in a few days, and getting into school. We go back and fourth about my choices as far as my curriculum is concerned. I don't know if she's just hating on the fact that I'm trying to better myself, or just happens to be a negative person.

After failing my WILD and getting some tips from Forceez, I tried to get some sleep. I had one dream, vivid and long too.

Detention
Non-Lucid: It's night in my high school. I'm going to my locker and realize I'm shirtless. I see some article of clothing lying in front of my locker, obviously must be my shirt. I pick it up, play around with it, they are red gym shorts. Time rewinds, I'm walking to my locker again. My brother is there, along with a bag of dirty clothes and a bag of dirty towels. (these are here because our washing machine is currently broken in real life) I pick up the bag of dirty towels but we're stopped by a bald man, he's taking us to a classroom that has a TV in it. We sit down, there's another person in the room but I down give them any thought. I ask him why he brought us here. He says he is on the police force, and that he is holding us here to show us what our crimes are doing (even though I haven't committed any of these crimes). The video plays, and I take the role of one of the people in the TV.
It's night, I'm manning a gun on some sort of armored car. I think we are in Mexico, most likely tracking down drug cartels. The car in front of the one I'm in shoots into the windows of the buildings we are driving next to. Blood splats onto the windows. This continues for a short time until I find myself somewhere unknown.
I'm no longer in the video, I'm in an abandoned house. I walk outside. (This area seems to be reoccurring, either that or I've visited this area in this one dream more than once and forgot) There's no grass here, in front of me is a pit (man made, more like a moat) beyond this is the town I know. A voice speaks to me, of a girl I know, she says "Truman can see it every time, crazy right?". I instantly know what she's talking about. On the far right of the pit is a barely visible staircase hidden by a bush and half buried. I run up it.
I'm now behind a shed the shed has an opening in the back large enough to squeeze through. I do just that. I'm no in a little undeveloped area.
Teleport again, I am in a shop. I realize I have to get back to that classroom or the officer is going to be pissed. I run out, it's raining, as I'm crossing the street (four way intersection) every single car stops. The rain stops falling too, and instead just floats where it was. I'm now running in slow motion, this is extremely frustrating for dream me. In front of me I see a Russian/gypsy woman crossing in front of me. She is speaking in gibberish and seems to be cussing at me (that was actually pretty creepy for me).
Teleport again, I'm at the school. It's daytime now, but I don't care, I need to get to that classroom. But my friends will stop me, I have to avoid them. I go behind a large dumpster (that isn't there in real life) and as I'm about to make a run for is, two friends of mine (we'll call them John and Rachel) suddenly pop up in front of me. "HEYY JENOS! WHAT UP?!" they're smiling like the actors from the Truman Show. I shout at the top of my lungs "Get out of my way, I need to get inside!!" I run inside. The dream ends here and enters into another one.

I was playing a game (it looked like Torn) and my energy and morale was depleted. I ate some kind of mushroom and to my surprise it replenished everything. I used half of my energy on getting some material. Then I decided to explore the world.

I was standing on an asphalt road. To my right I saw a shallow river and in front of me was a bridge that hung right above my head, across the river. I moved like it was google streetview. I had a few options and if I wanted to move, I rapidly went a little farther.
I went under the bridge and I saw a lot of stuff laying around. Mostly junk. I picked up an old couch and some car parts. I then had the choice to go to a castle or to follow a bright and pretty road. I chose the road but it wouldn't let me and I wound up in the castle anyway.

I saw Phoebe and Piper (Charmed) vanquishing a demon with a top hat. They took his hat off before he disappeared and wondered if the hat would disappear too. It didn't so they were relieved.
I could see a different demon. It didn't feel like he was evil but he looked a bit like Voldemort. He was worried because that other demon stole his hat and was planning to do something with it.
The charmed ones gave him the top hat in return for some behavior he had to change.

I was on a meadow with many people standing around. The sunlight was orange and made everything look pretty.
I was sitting behind a desk with my laptop on it. A guy with orange hair (I'm sure it wasn't the reflection of the sunlight) on the sides of his head. He was bald on top of his head. He was skinny and seemed friendly.
He asked me if he could do some programming on my laptop. I agreed and opened notepad. First he told me what to type. I wasn't sure if I did it right but he said "well done!" and smiled so I guessed how to do it correctly.

I backed away from my laptop and let him do the rest. At the end he made a mistake. I could see he misspelled a word. A woman next to him told him. He didn't really like the way she said it (neither did I) so he was stubborn and tried to look for mistakes himself. He used speed reading sofware to read it.
I asked: "wow, you speed read too?". It was an attempt to make him notice we had something in common. He said yes and simply continued. I started to really like him and got so excited it woke me up.

I wouldn't call it much of a nightmare, but it wasn't the nicest setting. I was at an old school, but I've never gone to this school, all I know is that my friends are there. Friends from a longer time ago, like middle school, there isn't much going on. I wander the halls, seeing people I know. Not talking to them, and not being talked too. The greatest memory/high point of this dream is I was standing in a hall way. Looking down, I was at a door, much like an office in the main office itself. The hall leading to the reception desk maybe, and to my right an open door. That's about all I can remember. But it is a fragment, for I've had several other dreams like this, all in different settings, but I have no idea what they mean.

I wake up; my mom comes rushing in the room packing stuff into a suitcase. I ask her why she is packing stuff up. She tells me that the Africans are taking over. I don't freeze with fear, I start packing all of my stuff into a bag pack. I look through the window and see the Africans closing in on us. I then begin to rush towards the door. While rushing towards the door I realize that I don't have my iPod. I run back to pick it up. While running out of the door I see some large Africans walking up the stairs holding boxes. I scan the area to find my brother and notice slowly walking down the stairs on the other side of the building. We meet up in the parking lot. While in the parking lot we run and end up at my grandma’s house miles and miles away from my house. All of my family is in my grandma's. It kind of feels like a party. I ask my grandma where T and B went. She says they are in my room. They both run out like party animals and I get energized and forget my house has been taken over. Then I began to mock T because he’s wearing summer clothes in winter. He tries to defend himself from the mocking but just gives up. Somehow my mother, brother, and I manage to make it back to my house. I see Africans rambling and moving stuff around in my room. Then I go up the stairs and burst through the door. When I enter I go on a crazy rampage eventually making the Africans retreat.

* The dream started out where I was in a grocery store shopping for random food objects. I didn't realize it but someone was following me. I then ended up in the baby section/family section of the store explaining two different situations to myself. The first situation was where I was standing near this shelf that had coats and other stuff like toys. I really don't know what made this moment tick but somehow my cousin Julian and Gabriel were in involved and so was my aunt. The boys were standing and pointing at the shelves and commuting about something, the toys. Then, after this happened I was helping a young boy who I thought was one of my cousins put a coat on. The coat had transformers or something boyish on it that suited a 5-year-old boy. The second part was when I realized something different from my family being there with me. there was a lady holding a toddler girl that looked about 18 months old or a year and a half old that she then handed to me. It was like this had just happened, but I was in a different situation from the one earlier. The lady told me we had to get ready and leave, but I did not know where. There was a see-through closet that had glass doors like in the frozen food section at a grocery store that had baby stuff like diapers and other necessities like clothes but there wasn't any food. I picked up this pouch while holding the baby that had a sippy cup In and then swung it over my shoulder or something as if It where a purse.


Then everything changed to a different setting. I was hiking on a dirt rode, I didn't know where I was going but somehow I knew I was going to get there. This dirt rode didn't have an end, but then I saw a man with some animals walking up towards me. He asked me if I needed help, It was like I couldn't come up with an answer but I knew that this man couldn't help me with what I needed. Something happened to where I had a gut felling and then right before my eyes it was like time was passing. I ended up getting to a random place by nightfall where people where going to help me with what I wanted. This place was a lodge or motel. I went into this room after this lady in a old Time bonnet and dress told me to make myself at home at the front desk. I walked into this room that was mine to stay in. I looked around for a little bit and then started looking at the tv setting where I found some items that where similar to items I had in waking life but they were different. One of the items was a combination of a madeline item, it was like a book and a dvd in one or something. The dream ended where I was looking back at a dream I had before, it was like I was looking in the past of my dreams.
