      Went to bed 12:00-12:30
      Goals: Detailed recall
      7:10
      I rem being at my grandmas house for like a family get together, we are towards the front of the house, there is a table immediately when you walk in, mary alice is sitting there serving food. When i realize how short the food line is and see my dad at the back of it i go get in line too. I get up there and there is like a pile of beans along with something else on my plate. I ask for equal part of beans and green beans, i notice nobody else is eating green beans. Dont rem much else.

      *Have a flash that i was trying to get credit for a class i failed to complete in the past, not in waking life, in the dream i failed to complete one. I had to retake a test, in the dream i hadnt studied for it or anything and was quite worried about it. I could take it from home and i had two study guides from the previous times i took the class, so i just hoped they would be enough. I rem looking at the guides in dream, they had little keywords equally spaced and bold on the page, in between them was my handwriting, sloppy, in pencil. I think near the end i was considering calling my old teacher about the test.

    2. Crazy games and colours!

      by , 08-05-2011 at 04:48 PM
      Im at home, im playing some crazy game with Josh. I know i am playing the game but i am playing as the character in the game and so is josh. i have some weird wristband on... Similar looking to the one Leela wears from Futureama. We are running around. jumping really far and blasting things with this wristband.

      Im not at sams house, for some reason somebodies face gets covered in bees, they are terrified and shouting for someone to stop it now. We all laugh, someone rolls up and we begin to smoke. We are watching TV, kate is to my left sitting next to me, sam is on the other sofa to my right and kirsty is with her.
      Kate turns to me and asks me what colour she should dye her hair next, purple or blue... I tell her "Erm, blue is good... How about both?" she smiles at me and says "yeaaaaah!" I think to myself.... "please dont dye it purple thats what i want to do" lol so im trying to convince her to dye it blue.

      Joe is here, he hasn't got green, he opens up sams grinder while shes in the toilet and scrapes out some of her THC... I see him and say "dude, stealing weed is one thing, but a persons THC is sacred!!!!" he laughs and continues... i say "seriously man that isn't cool!!".
      He skins up and smokes the THC joint quickly before sam gets back. I feel bad for not saying anything but they've just broken up so i dont want to cause more tension.

      Bailey wants to pick up some weed and gets on his phone, he gets up and tells us he'll be back soon.
      Kate goes to her room and comes back with some dyes... for some reason she Decides to Spread some out on her legs (she is wearing short shorts) to see how it will look. she decides to mix them together, as she mixes them they turn to brown which is what id expect but after a couple more rotations each colour seems to change to a different one... "thats really weird" i tell her... "isn't it?" she replies and looks right at me.

      Suddenly an overweight oriental man bursts through the door... I jump up about to attack him and everyones yells out to stop me... I look around at everyone and give them that "seriously!?" look. Somebody just says "its just a jogger" and he walks through the room, out the kitchen door into their garden and stand there. He is moaning that he is sweating alot and is trying to cool off.
      I sit back down and am a bit nervous about this guy.
    3. Bunny suit photo shoot

      by , 08-05-2011 at 02:56 PM (Taffy's Sweet Dreams)
      I was over my friend's house. I went inside to get ice pops. We were playing catch with a plastic deer, who's tail broke off. We went into the living room and played ps2. It was a modded console with a custom controller. We played some fighting game in Japanese with pretty much every character in the world. I chose Tsuna and Spanner from KHR. For some reason Tsuna was replaced with Mario. after that my mom came to pick me and my cousin up (when did she get there?). We went to a huge department store. We went through the back and walked up lots of stairs.

      At the top I realized I was alone. The room was painted gold with pillars and had a bright red carpet. There were a lot of girls in bunny suits. A blonde lady grabbed me by the arm and told me to get dressed. The costume (although embarrassing) was surprisingly comfortable. She made us practice for a photoshoot or something. It took hours. I even had to spike up my hair in a weird way. She made us smile in like fifty different ways and practice posing. After we were done some of the girls left the room and there were only two left and me. One of the girls got a text message telling her to turn on the TV in the room. We did and saw that the ones who left were already on a stage performing without us. The blonde lady set this whole thing up. We were pissed, and wanted our revenge.

      We walked out of the building and around to the back of the stage. We walked on while the others were still dancing as if it were part of the show. I wish I could've seen that blonde lady's face when we started dancing like idiots in front of the whole crowd. After the number was done we all walked back inside. There was a chalkboard set up with sliders set to the words "performance: BAD." I knew it was our group of 3 who caused this. The three of us took our suits of and slammed them to the ground. I walked out the front door.

      It was the middle of a winter night outside the building. As I was walking I met up with an old man. He seemed very afraid of something. I walked with him for a while, telling him that I had no parents (lie, for some reason). He showed me his stamp and eraser collection. I don't know why but I was all shocked and amazed when he showed it to me.

      by , 08-05-2011 at 02:32 PM (Zelkova's Dream Jounral: Part Two)
      Before I start, I am thinking about changing the way I do my dream journal. I really sure put decent titles as the date is already recorded by the feature itself. I also thinking about going the color code thing also as it seem many users enjoy it.

      Today is not that day though, I want to quickly write these down before I forget about the little details.

      Fragment 1:

      I was somewhere and a guy told me when I get to a non-existing town on a game call Legends of Yore (real game: http://www.legendsofyore.com/ quite fun too) I should look for a purple sign that tell me where to go. It seem like this system was made by me. O_o. It a way to tell players where to go but making them aware that they are spoilers.

      Anyway once I go to the inn in the non-existing town which remind me of Varrock on runescape...Quite big for a town on LoY. I found a NPC. I was told he will give me 3 things.

      1. A robe that can't be gotten any other way. (The item exist, I saw it in the codes but it never was put in the game)
      2. A quest which is to make a weak armor get 100% exp/charge. The system don't exist on LoY but I was noted that you can do the quest twice for some reason.
      3. I honestly forgot...Money maybe?

      Dream 1:

      I dream that I was at school that I no longer go to in my underwear (not boxer...Plain white underwear) which is a common dream correct?

      What make this odd is that the dream characters were basically giving me the thumbs up for it. Some guy while I was walking down the stairs said something like "Nice snake" with a friendly/approval voice.

      I went outside in middle of the court yard. Our school is freaking huge and the court yard can be seen by like 90% of the school through windows. At this point I didn't care I was in my underwear but I still wanted to get dress and I somehow knew that there was something to wear in my bookbag that I magical just got on my back.

      I was going to ask my teacher if I can go to a restroom and get dress (dream logic...I have no clue what keeping me from getting dress on the spot but to be fair I honestly didn't think about that until I start writing this.) I didn't have a chance to speak as every classroom was in the court yard ready to get a lesson on something.

      There was a dead squirrel in the middle of the yard. No one pay any mind to it. The teacher was saying something about squirrels leaving themselves while open while having sex. lol wut...

      There was squirrels like freaking everywhere on the roof of our school. I pointed a few out by request of the teacher. She start explaining crap that I didn't listen to. At one point she said something like "killing a squirrel while they are having sex is like a human getting shot by a sniper" which then she said something like "who would want to do something like that?" which a kid quickly respond with "After you said that I kinda want to now" which my best friend said "I know right!"

      My dream was quite funny that night.

      The kid with the quick response was a big kid name John though he look like a stereotypical black giant that should be in jail which is like anti-John.

      Fragment 2:

      My friend hated me for making her join up some class with a name like "Science life study" or something like that but more dream-like. Her class of choice was like "life science study".

      Anyway this time I was wearing something in was sitting in class. My Japanese teacher was being a bitch though she didn't give us any work...It was like she was on her period or something...Just woke up on the wrong side of the bed kind of angry.

      The teacher walk up behind me and I notice something...This is a dream.

      [lucid]

      I wanted my dream character friend to laugh so I said "watch this" and pick up a book. I beat the hell out of the teacher by hitter her where her Adam apple would be then smacking her head a few times while I was still sitting down.

      She was flat on the floor and my friend was laughing and didn't seem to care about the teacher safety. Maybe because it was a dream or because the teacher was a bitch earlier...No clue on the reason.

      The teacher magical back up sitting on her chair. The friend stated something like "Do you have a tickle on your neck?" which the teacher response with a no. Seem like the teacher forgotten what I have done.

      I sadly woke up shortly as this fragment happened when I fell asleep after waking up from my main dream. Normally this wouldn't be an achievement for me but I have became lucid two nights in a row.

    5. [002]"Tin Star"

      by , 08-05-2011 at 01:56 PM
      NOTE: I haven't been on here in many months. I thought about getting back into LDing, so I will update my DJ every week or so. I had this dream right before I woke up. My recall is still pretty shot from the summer sleep schedule, so bear with the lack of detail.

      I, along with many others, am sitting on the gym floor of my elementary school. We are near the top left exit door, right beside the bleachers. It is very bright outside. The principal, P, is making us do some kind of obscure relay race. The rules appear to be as follows: One team member from one side will stand up and run the entirety of the course while flailing his or her arms, and sit down on the other side. Teams will alternate until a winner is chosen. I never thought to call into question the pointlessness of the relay, or that the "entirety of the course" was about four feet. My friend J is sitting beside me. P is constantly getting onto him for talking, but never anyone else. I tell P to leave J alone, to which he responds, "You don't even know anything about me!" I remember thinking, "I went to school here for ten years!", but I didn't say anything. I got the feeling that I was younger.

      Scenechange

      I am in my house with G, and we are the only ones there. It is dark outside, and the only lights on are over the dining room table, and in the office. I am fiddling with something that he brought while we talk. It is a 7 or 8 pointed star made from a bent canning jar lid. Throughout the dream I am always bending and flexing it. After we talk for a bit, he says he has to go. I open the fridge and offer him one of many little juice bottles I have. Each one is a different color and flavor. He declines, and I pick peach. I walk into the office, and he follows. He says he really has to go now, and leaves. I log onto Steam. Dream ends with me playing with the little metal star.

    6. earth and cars; robot girl; detergent; maid's complaints; TV show; the dead speak

      by , 08-05-2011 at 01:00 PM
      Good morning, everybody.

      Dream #1

      There was a view of outer space, as if part of some documentary. The view swept between a bright star and, probably, two planets which were very close to each other. As it did, a narrator spoke about how the earth was in danger and how people should work to save the environment. But everything the narrator said seemed wrong. She seemed to mistake all the problems and come up with really silly solutions.

      As the narrator began talking about the problems on Earth regarding our water supply, the view swept down to "Earth," one of the two close-together planets. The planet was dark from high up in space. It looked like it was mostly dark, barren land with only a few wisps of clouds floating over it.

      The narrator's comments again seemed to annoy me with being so off-track. The view now seemed to sweep under some wispy cloud, possibly near a small, sharp mountain. I understood that I was supposed to be watching a space ship taking off somewhere.

      I was now on earth, at some place like an air base, looking up into the sky. It may have been late afternoon. The sky was cool, pale, tinged with pink. I seemed to have just finished watching a space ship or an airplane launching into the sky. I now turned my gaze back toward the ground.

      I was with two other "people." One of them was actually a computer-graphics car, like the red car from the movie Cars. The other person, and even I myself, may also have been CG cars.

      We headed across a stretch of concrete, over to a pick-up truck, which was not CG and not alive. We (cars) were apparently going to ride this pick-up truck away from the base. As we headed over to the pick-up truck, we talked about the environment, as if continuing the narrator's speech. I think I disagreed with everything said, but I spoke and laughed as if I agreed.

      We all got in the truck. I got in the bed of the truck, which was covered by a little shell. I got in by swinging myself under a horizontal bar placed just unde the roof of the shell. I'm pretty sure at this point I was a car. Even in the back of the truck I was continuing my talk with the other two people about the environment.

      Dream #2

      I was in a cluttered living room with two other people. I may have been kneeling before a couch piled with papers and other stuff, possibly including some kind of sheer or lacy blanket.

      One of the people, who I never saw, was my friend. I'd come to this place with my friend to plan some kind of party. The house bellonged to the other person, a tall, kind of skinny man with olive-colored skin, longish, frizzy, black hair, and plastic-rimmed glasses.

      We were looking through piles of photos or headshots. We were trying to match something about the headshots with something about the attitude of the party, to decide how to make the party and who to invite.

      I ran across a kind of strange photo of a girl. She was maybe ten or eleven years old, and she had a kind of nerdly look. But something else about her made her look like a robot. It was like I could see that under her short skirt there was a bunch of gears and machinery.

      My friend (a woman?) saw that I found the photo a little strange. She snatched the photo out of my hands. Something about the girl was a secret, and the woman figured I was just about to ask what that secret was. The woman said, "This little girl was his (the man's) daughter."

      The man seemed to understand that I had caught on that the girl looked like a robot. The man, kind of as a confession, told me that the girl had been a robot. She had been like a daughter to him. But apparently she was no longer alive.

      Dream #3

      I was in some strange, small space with my brother and sister and my mom's ex-boyfriend, TV. The place was supposed to be like a store. It looked like a mix between a sidewalk newsstand and an unfinished basement. The counter and front shelf were really small. The shelf area and the back area, behind the counter were lit with a kind of yellowy, fluorescent light. But evertyhing else was dark.

      TV stood behind the counter. My brother and sister stood before it. They were both little kids again. I stood off to their left, in shadows. I may have been a little kid, too.

      The shelves were all lined with detergent. TV had told us that he was looking for detergent so he could do our laundry. But, he said, the detergent he usually used was all gone. There were a lot of different kinds, but most of them were so different, they wouldn't work at all. It was like they weren't even detergent.

      TV really seemed to wish he could find the old kind of detergent. We kids were all hoping that TV could do our laundry. My brother handed TV a few different types of detergent. But TV rejected them. One of the detergents looked like a drink pouch with a big, thick, orange cap. Most of the boxes of detergent were yellow and orange.

      I was starting to think our laundry would never get done. But finally my brother found an old-fashioned looking box of detergent. The box was plain and yellow, and it had small writing, in a kind of old-fashioned font, all over each of its sides. This detergent was apparently the generic version of the kind that had run out.

      My brother handed this box to TV. TV accepted it, possibly a little reluctantly. It was good enough. So he'd be able to do our laundry. But TV still seemed like he'd rather wait until he got the kind of detergent he actually liked.

      Dream #4

      I was living with my family. We had just gotten a maid.

      I had just come back from something like work. I was kind of excited to see how well the maid had cleaned the house. I may also have had a little bit of an arrogant feeling that the maid would say my room had been the cleanest to begin with.

      But my mom told me that the maid said I needed to clean my room better before she came to clean it. My mom said that the space under the bed had stuff under it, so she wasn't able to clean it.

      I seemed to be going up a stairwell to my bedroom. I was holding onto the straps of a backpack I was wearing. I slowly entered the room and looked under my bed. The carpet was really dusty. A crumpled pair of khaki slacks lay on the carpet.

      There was also a strange coffee cup which appeared to be either styrofoam or paper. But also seemed to be made of glass or ceramic. It had a white base, which faded up into a watercolory blue and green. There was a glass or ceramic flower with green petals and a pink center attached to its side.

      I could see how this stuff could have blocked the maid from cleaning under my bed. I was a little ashamed for not having realized I'd left this stuff here.

      Dream #5

      The opening credits for some TV show were playing. The TV show was about some kind of normal American town, where all the characters were really normal and plain, except that they all seemed to have some sort of magic power or another. Each person had a different magic power.

      The opening credits gave a screen shot to each of the main characters, giving the actors name, the character's name, and a short description of the character. Most of the characters have escaped my memory.

      There seemed to be one blonde woman who looked like an average young mom. She wore a green cardigan sweater with a cherry-tree-branch design on it in black and white. She also wore skinny, black slacks. During her screen shot, she was doing something like shifting a pile of clothes from one place to another.

      The final person also caught my attention. He was by far the gaudiest person in the town. He may have been gay. He worked at some department store, like the store in the British sitcom "Are You Being Served." He had feathery, platinum blonde hair and tan skin. He wore some kind of flowing white shirt and a black vest. He also seemed to be adorned with huge, cubic, shimmering crystals.

      As well as being gay, he may have been the most "out" about having magic powers. His screen shot showed him in his department store, throwing his arms up in the air in some dramatic, magic gesture.

      The show now began. There were two women and one man in a very stage-like setting. The space was supposed to be a beauty salon. But it was just a huge stage with a polished white floor. One the right side was some scenery like neon cut-outs of trees and vegetation. But this was supposed to be the real outdoors. The man stood out near this area, wearing a white terry cloth robe and sipping some kind of fruit drink.

      The two women were near the center of the stage, by two chairs like dentist chairs. These were for beauty salon customers.

      There was some kind of contest. Whoever won would get a free treatment at the beauty salon. One of the women was the worker at the beauty salon. The other woman went to the salon all the time.

      The man began to mock the contest a little. He said, "Well, what happens if I win and I get to go to the beauty salon? What do you do to me?"

      The man was suddenly in one of the chairs, naked. As if he were asking if this would happen, his body was suddenly slathered in a bunch of white, painty material. The man was wiggling back and forth, making throaty "Agh!" sounds, as if he were digusted, but also acting like he loved whatever it was he was going through. He asked, "Is this what you would do to me if I won the contest."

      The customer woman now stood where the man had previously stood, by the neon paper vegetation. The man asked, "Is this what you do to her when she comes here?"

      The customer woman was really pretty. She was blonde, heavily made up and dressed in the style of a 1990s business woman, with a red dress exposing a V of chest. But now she was naked. She walked to the chair to the man's right. She got in the chair upside down and facing in toward the chair, so that her really nice rear end just kind of stuck way up in the air.

      I was hoping that the worker woman (red-haired, pale-skinned, with glasses, done up partly like a 1990s business woman and partly like Diane Keaton in the movie Manhattan) would start rubbing the naked customer woman down with whatever kind of white gunk the man seemed to be coated in. It felt like it would easily turn into some kind of erotic lesbian scene, which I would love.

      Dream #6

      I was in a morgue, which looked a bit more like some kind of crafts workshop, or theatre's backstage construction area. The place was full of tables and equipment, most of which seemed suited to a factory. There was a mortician somewhere for a little while. But after a while, he was gone.

      I stood surrounded by a few work tables, like for cloth cutting or some other kind of craft. Across the way from me, though, a line of bodies were laid out on tables. The tables were all low, maybe knee-height. They all looked like work tables, and they were all separated from each other by kind of bulky pieces of equipment or machinery.

      I saw four or five bodies in the line. Two bodies to my right were of men wearing soccer outfits, as if they had been soccer fans or soccer players. One of the men wore a green uniform. The other wore a yellow one. Both men were short, a little stout, and Latino. They had slightly cut up faces.

      A woman's body was just off to my left. She was white, middle-aged, pale skinned, a little overweight. She had shoulder-length, red-brown-dyed hair. She lay on her back and seemed to be frozen in the position of taking a picture with her phone, which she held with both hands.

      Something like narration ran through my head about how every person dies frozen in the position of whatever they were doing the instant they died. The woman now turned her head toward me and said, "Yes. That's true."

      I was surprised that this dead woman had just spoken to me. But the narration said, "The dead can come alive to speak to the living when they have questions."

      The woman was struggling to sit up, but she seemed more like she was sliding off the table. But, still, she was cheerfully confirming what the narrator had just said. She told me she could stay alive long enough to answer my questions.

      I felt like it was really important to ask good questions and to focus on what was being told to me, because you don't get to talk to dead people every day.
    7. TotM, Portal Attempts, metal transformations

      by , 08-05-2011 at 12:12 PM
      05-08-11 I am in holland again, I am outside and I am sleeping, though I am partially awake. There is chatter in the background and I believe they wouldn't actually wake me up, due to me having specified having an interest in dreams and sleep.

      I keep waking up and looking out down towards the garage. At one point Ant comes over, I hear him before I see him and he intends on waking me up in a rather funny, but unpleasant matter. He intends to pour a glass of pickled cucumber over my face.

      As he approaches I look up and laugh a bit, he doesn't seem to want to stop so I look at him, still smiling and start making some physically impossible move and tell him to lay off or “there will be violence”.

      He lays off and we decide to head out. We head towards a supermarket at first and I am quickly left behind. I think about Ida who is standing a bit ahead and I think it is fair enough she doesn't want me anyways, I have little interest in her anyways. However it does spark a hint of emotional discomfort though no way near as much as usual.

      As I am climbing over the wall I look down and I see a blue beetle that is best described as a mixture of a lady bug and a LEGO Duplo piece, with legs. I hear Ruth shouting to the others “He is coming I have just seen him jump”.

      I notice how gracefully I jump both down the wall and past a couple of people over a pool of water. I notice my dream sign that I am capable of parcour. I become lucid.

      I start looking around and fly a bit. I am in a city that seems like a crossover between Århus and Amsterdam. The rest of the crew is in a warehouse on the top floor and when I see them I start flying up towards them.

      On the way up there I decide to try out some spider man stuff instead and I procede to crawling up the wall. Close up the wall is mostly redish with a lot of black to gray texture in it. The way I am stuck to the wall is remarkable in the way that I don't seem stuck as such, but it feels like my hands and feet are magnetically attached to the wall.

      I start thinking if there is somethng I am supposed to do. I have decided to give the confidence issues a bit of a rest and decide to go playful. What is the TotM. Get a DC to sing and go to the chocolate factory, right.

      I let go and drop to street level. I burst out in song in order to get the rest of the many DCs on the street to join me. I think I am going with “Dangerzone” off top gun, but no one seems to join in except a guy from behind me across the street and he just shouts Danger!

      That won't hold up and I get a bit annoyed.

      I ask to ladies walking by if they want to sing for me, but they refuse.

      I think at this point the dream starts to fade and I command it to come back verbally. Things go blank and as the dream comes back it feels like I have one eye open in waking life and one in the dream world. I have felt like this before though and this time I decide to just ignore it.

      I command the dream to stabilize and between that and ignoring the open eye syndrome (Coined!). I get the dream back on track. I run into a tanned guy wearing a yellow sports T-shirt with a sports bag over his shoulder.

      I ask him to sing for me, but he only looks at me briefly before he turns sround, take on an arrogant attitude and tells me that he won't. Now I am getting angry so I grab hold of him place my hands on both sides of his face and looks him in the eyes. I briefly think of vampire compulsion, glamour or whatever you want to call it and start talking to him.

      He stares blankly at me.

      “God damn, this is my dream and I am sick and tired of getting refused”
      He reples with an astounding empty stare.
      “Now you will sing to me!”
      He starts singing “Happy birthday to you...”
      “Yeah yeah that will do” It is boring and not my birthday, but task accomplished.
      “Why do you need me to sing for you?” he asks
      “Don't worry about it, you have done your part thank you”
      “You keep information tight, don't you”
      “As I said, this is a dream, so once you have been integrated with my consciousness again you will understand”

      Now to the chocolate factory. I immediately think about doors. I have to find a door and expect the chocolate factory to be on the other side. It is getting darker, but I find a door inside a building and try and will the chocolate factory on the other side.

      When I open the door I expect a portal to be there, though I only find a white canvas. I try it out and try and walk through it. It is difficult in particular my head doesn't really seem to be willing to. After a couple of minutes of faffing around inside a door that isn't a door the dream starts fading.

      I pull the move I tried out before and when I come back in the dream again things have changed slightly. The scenery is darker and I am not sure what is going on. I am pretty sure I am dreaming, but I am uncertain so I pull a hand RC. Sure enough.

      I was trying to open a portal to the chocolate factory, right onwards. I spot something that looks like a hotel up the road. I walk to it and prepare for the door to be a portal.

      Now unfortunately the front door is made of glass, so it will be difficult imagining anything but the hotel I can see through the glass door. So I decide to walk through it and find another door I can try with.

      As I open it there is no portal behind it, but a small passage way and a mirror at the end.

      A mirror, that is interesting. That could be used as a portal, but first I observe my self reflection flicker in the mirror. It isn't like anything is missing, but my reflection is there one moment and gone the next flicking on and off.

      I decide to hop through it and having learned from the first experience I go through head first. I manage to get my entire body fully through and then I just hover there. I start falling a bit and I figure that will work, never done portals before I don't know what to expect.

      I keep falling and eventually looking up I see a door, I reach up for the handle and try and pull myself through, however I wake up just as I get the door open.



      I am with some superhero crew. We are gathering some black obsidian bars, that are to be transformed into a single adamantium bar. I proclaim to someone that it is stupid to try and do that since adamantium can't be altered. I wonder if Stark can do it seeing as it is him collecting.

      Notes: Third night in a row with a lucid. The technique of awakening from a night of dreaming, trying to recollect them and then go back to sleep seems to work wonders. Though I didn't have many dreams to recollect this morning the Obsidian/adamantium dream was fresher in my mind, but I have spent much time with my niece while writing down the dream, so memories have faded a bit.
    8. meeting friend and holiday

      by , 08-05-2011 at 11:08 AM
      Last night I dreamed that I was meeting up with a guy from school (not in a date way) who I hardly know. I think my friend came with my as we would have more to talk about. When setting it up he said to meet at the resteraunt place where his mum works but when I didn't know where it was we just agreed on McDonalds. I don't think it was McDonalds the dream actually took us to though, just some café place. By the time we were sat down my friend wasn't with us anymore and we had pretty much nothing to talk about aand the dream ended.
      The dream probably happened becuase I am meeting up with a friend at some point soon who I get along well with but I have no idea what we would actually do when we meet up but I have asked my other friend (the same as the friend in the dream) to come along as she is friends with him also.

      I had another dream the I was on holiday with my boyfriend and his family (which I was last week in Wales) although this place was different and we were all staying in seperate single buildings which were just a bedroom. While there we bumped into a friend of mine who was with her friend (i went on holiday with her to spain a couple of years ago, i think I assumed we were in spain in this dream). My boyfriend and I went to our room, didn't do anything sexual but were naked in bed (maybe because of the heat??) and my friend burst into the room to see if she coul catch us doing anything. She left and the we started to hear people trying to shoot/throw things (not like guns, just toy guns. Some were kids and some were guys in red sodier sort of uniform witbh guns that fired harmless but still annoying hollow black balls. It seemed they were aiming for our room and various other rooms. we were able to draw the curtains but there was no glass behind the curtains, just a gap that went from the floor level nearly to the top of the room and to the sides, i think we had two walls like this.
      I can't remember any more

    9. Vapor Trails

      by , 08-05-2011 at 06:03 AM (My dream journal....)
      August 4th, 2011 not lucid

      I'm at mcdonalds (either at the drive through or inside). My dad asks what I want. I say water. (p.s. I barely remember this part)

      Next, I'm walking out of a building with my parents. It might be a hotel, but I'm not sure. I tell my parents how weird it is that there's a huge mirror right in front of us that looks exactly like whatever's behind it. (in the dream, the mirror was more like a very clean window.) *I tell my mom, "I can just see an architect going 'hehe, I'll put a mirror right here so everyone walks into it!'" (I said this with my voice all wobbly, to make it sound like the architect was laughing, but it sounded more like a goat). My mom apparently thought that was funny and repeated it with the same voice, noting how she thought it was funny how I thought architects speak.*

      Next, I'm in my dads truck outside the building. My sister is now there, and I kind of just know that we're going to a softball game (and I remember earlier my parents said that we would only be gone for two hours, which for some reason was hard to believe.). As we drive, I have trouble putting the water I got from mcdonalds into the cup holder. This fades away as the car turns north. Someone points out something in the sky that looks like a vapor trail, but it is really close to the ground (only a couple yards). Looking at it, I notice how wobbly it is, and then I remember seeing two parallel tracks in the ground further back on the road, and realize that the plane probably crashed there. I also notice that the vapor trails start kind of on the road and that the plane probably took off there.*

      As we keep driving north, we also notice more vapor trails at the side of the road. It looks like there might be a cliff where the side of the road ended, and that planes just flew around next to the cliff, and hardly ever seemed to go above the road (at least, that's what I infered from the random vapor trails and fogginess to my left.)*

      We kept driving and noticed one more cool thing. We were at a point where everything around us is a couple feet lower than the road itself. To our left we see something really cool. It's a field, with irrigational looking devices going across it. The devices were emitting some sort of fog or mist that made really interesting patterns. I thought about how much I wanted to see this place in the morning (because it wouldve looked really cool). But then the dream ended...
    10. Attack of the Pirates near Not-Hearst Castle (Night of July 22-23)

      by , 08-05-2011 at 06:00 AM (The Lab Notebook)
      [This is a catch-up post. These dreams are from the night of July 22-23, 2011.]

      Awake, Non-lucid, Lucid, Possibly lucid?, [Commentary made while awake]

      I'm at a big, old house that is now a tourist site. It's a bit like Hearst Castle, only older, in a different architectural style, and not on a hill. Tourists can enter either the house itself to go on a tour, or they can enter a large theater to watch a movie about the house. The space in between the house and the theater is an enclosed, carpeted lobby. While I'm in that space, I give another tourist directions to the main entrance to the house: “Go down there, turn left, go up the ramp, then turn right and go through the doors.” The ramp is long and slopes gently upward.

      In addition to the large, main theater, the complex also has a ride of some kind with seats that are suspended on long bars from an overhead track. Riders board the ride by strapping themselves into the seats when they are within small, circular, mobile theater pods. These theater pods show a movie about the era in between the heyday of the large house and the present day, that is, the house's early days as a tourist attraction, before it had a visitors' center. The pods also can move around on legs and have motion-simulator functionality. I get into one of the pods 'backwards,' by riding on one of the seats as it comes into the pod from the unloading station. Other riders also board the pod, and then the movie begins.


      [I'm not absolutely sure, but I think] It was at this point that I woke up for a very brief WBTB (just a few minutes, which is about how long I usually wake up for in the middle of the night). I remembered very well what I had just been dreaming about, and focused on it while I was awake. As I was going back to sleep, I thought, I wonder if I can get back into the same dream I was just in. [Amazingly,] I succeeded in doing so.

      The mobile theater pod moves out into the street that runs past the big, old house, which is part of the ride. While it's out in the street, the pod is boarded by small, roundish creatures, Expies of The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything [from “VeggieTales”]. After they've boarded the pod, instead of proceeding to attack and plunder it, they decide to go inside the visitors' center to get some Starbucks. This gives me time to escape from the pod and run for help. I escape from the pod and start walking along the sidewalk. Somewhere around here, I realize that I'm dreaming, but I don't want to interrupt the dream plot already in progress; it's interesting and exciting, so I go along with it. I start searching for the main, public entrance to the tourist site. I pass by what appears to be the main entrance and go to a gift shop. The gift shop is filled with a lot of red decorations and red objects, mainly Christmas decorations. I sit down in a chair and get into a conversation with the store attendant. While I'm talking to her, my thoughts stray and the impact of the thought, “Whoa, I'm dreaming” hits me fairly hard. I am suddenly overcome by a strong feeling of sleepiness, and close my eyes. Then I remember that I'll lose the dream if I do that, and open them again. I'm still right where I was.

      I tell the tour guide about the mobile theater pod being attacked by pirates, and ask, “Do you have a security guard?” She shows me where there is one waiting behind a service counter, and sends him back out onto the street with me. When we're on the street, I notice that there are “floating” vehicles on it and feel dismayed that the sci-fi future is actually here. Then I notice that at least the larger vehicles do have tractor treads, in addition to the pink, glowing force fields I see under all the vehicles. The security guard goes to the mobile theater pod and apprehends the pirates
      [at least, I suppose he did; I don't really remember that part of the dream].

      [Different dream.] A man has been captured and locked in handcuffs. A dog brings him a key in its mouth, so he can get out of them. He does so. Then, his captor approaches and, seeing that he's out of the handcuffs, says to him, “I expected you'd be out of those by now.” The man replies, “I already am.”

      [Different dream.] I'm showing some guy how to properly arrange the cord for and use the mouse on my computer.

      [I may or may not have been lucid for this one, I'm not sure.] P. and I are both making cakes with a little bit of dough, under Mom's guidance. My piece of dough is bigger than P.'s. We mix ingredients into the dough with our hands. We're in the kitchen/dining room of House #1, and the cake pans are sitting on the floor under the dining table. We pick them up from there to put the dough in them. Before I put my dough in my cake pan, I run a little bit of tap water onto it, and it shrinks to the size of P.'s piece of dough. That's good, and a relief; I'd been concerned that I'd initially taken more than my fair share when we divided the dough, and when we added the other ingredients.

    11. Fragments and Dreams

      by , 08-05-2011 at 04:27 AM
      Fragments
      A van, some guys lasers and brown stuff. Like sand or something.

      Kat Slater from EastEnders was arguing with Megan Fox on the Square.

      My Mum made me some pie. It looked like cherry pie and it was kinda cartoony which led to this dream. She doesn't usually make pie.

      I was in college and my friend was there and one of my least favourite friends was there.

      Dream 1

      I was somewhere in a forest or something and my mum was there and she had been kdnapped along with the families or friends and it was up to me and my squad to get them back (my squad had family members and friends in that group that they wanted to save) It kinda turned into Call Of Duty as I started shooting bad guys. I eventually found the people and then woke up.

      Dream 2
      A family was watching as a father and his sons entered the formers car.
      I think they were high ranking people so the other family let them take there car. The Dad thought that the other family would damage his car when they got in but they were really careful. The odd thing was this family was white and I hadn't seen any of the before.

      Side Notes

      I was attempting Sleep Paralysis and I kind of got there. I felt my arms shutdown and my face went numb and it kinda felt weird as if someone's hand was on it. So I opened my eyes and nothing was there. I was ignoring the need to move and roll over into another position but I couldn't keep it up and moved.

    12. First Dream

      by , 08-05-2011 at 12:34 AM
      I thought it would be most appropriate to post my first dream as the first dream I remember from my life. The age at which I had it, I cannot recall. I was most likely around age six.

      So the first segment of my dream that I remember consisted of my father, older brother, and I. My older brother was about eight, and my father in his forties. We were slowly riding on the back of a Brontosaurus (hence my username.) The Brontosaurus was a greenish/yellow color. It's neck was abnormally long, even for that species of dinosaur. The view of the dream was a side view, you were only able see just a few paces in front of the large dinosaur at the very right, then the rest of your vision was taken over by this animal with a back unlike others. It's back was like a camel with three humps, just enough to seat me and my two companions. I was on the bottom/front hump closest to the neck, then my brother in the middle, lastly my dad at the top. We were all sitting upright. The sky was a dim light blue, but with a little grey. My emotion I felt was saddened by the weather, like when your mood changes because it's about to rain. The grass was flat and green, everything seemed as though a child had drawn the dream (I was young.) All of the sudden, the dino began to gallop. It ran very quickly, I felt as if I was losing my grasp, but in my head I knew I was safe since I was able to hold onto the neck. But I knew that my dad and brother would not be able to hold on for long, and the Brontosaurus only got faster. I screamed, and I cried. I tried to make the animal stop, but it was no use. Until finally it viewed a large lake in it's way and haulted to a sudden stop. Right when the momentum stopped, gravity pushed my brother and father off the back of the animal and into the air. It was like slow motion watching them fly, they spun in the air like in cartoons. I saw that they were headed for the lake which for some reason turned into a small puddle. I never saw it transform, it just made sense in the dream that it had changed. I automatically jumped down from the bottom hump and I paid no more attention to the Brontosaurus. I ran to the puddle, which I looked into. Somehow, my dad and brother had fallen straight in, and it was a sucking tunnel filled with water, but they could breathe and speak clearly in the water. I stooped over it, and knew in my mind that my dad was gone forever, having already been sucked all the way in. All I was left with was my brother struggling in the water filled hole, he was reaching his arms towards me screaming. I tried, but could not penetrate the surface, we both knew that we had to say goodbye at that moment. He stopped struggling, and I said 'goodbye I love you' in my head, and he knew I said it maybe by telepathy, finally he waved and drifted down. I watched as long as I could. The water was a dark blue, and the sides of the tunnel were purple. I felt like I was sobbing and could not stop, but only one tear drifted from my eye. It was slow motion again at this moment, the tear fell off my face and onto the water (it was like when they have slow motion videos of a rain drop) and I was able to watch it lay on the surface of the puddle, because now it was just a puddle again. Then my mind said that it was over and I had to move on, so I stood up... that's when I awoke.
    13. Take the Carrot Path Across the River A non lucid 8/4/11

      by , 08-05-2011 at 12:29 AM (Mancon's Wild and Crazy Adventures in the Dream World)

      I was standing by a river talking to a zebra. The zebra had a deep voice and was talking about necklaces or something like that. It lifted it's hoof and pointed toward the river.

      I looked and saw HUGE carrots staying still in the river, with flat tops, like rocks. I can remember the orange color was really bright and almost blinded me.

      The zebrah told me if I wanted a macbook I would have to hope on the carrots and get across the river. I went over and hopped on the first one. It dipped down a bit, but held still. I got over easy. When I looked across the river the zebra was gone!

    14. Tight set of stairs

      by , 08-04-2011 at 11:44 PM
      I was at a formal or something it began like it was in the past when everyone was younger but then its like the dream decided it was in the present time after all, we were all sitting down and i couldn't find my friends so i sat with some girls i use to be friends with but no longer were, i was being rude to them by sticking my finger up at them and they were half shocked and half amused, they ended up going away from me and i was scared i was alone, and i felt awkward, from a distance i could see my friends and went over to them, we all went into another section of the building which seemed to be a shop, i lost them again and walked around aimlessly, until i saw another of my friends, Mary in the card store buying cards for everyone. i felt relieved and went to go find her, it was a tight squeeze in the cards store but i got in there and she was buying graduation cards for everyone, i was going to get one to so i went to look but couldn't find one i liked. Me and Mary went into another shop which was like coles or huge food store, and heard music, on our way out we jumped to the music into the air and landed gracefully all across the rest of the shopping center, i got off balanced while she kept walking and had to lean on the side of a shop to push myself up and start walking, whilst trying to not fall i lost her again.

      I went out of the shop trying to find someone i knew again. I went down stairs were it was a carnival. Some other girl Crystal came to me that wasn't a friend of mine but she had lost hers so we walked around together, Mary finally found me and we walked off together with Crystal. We all ended up meeting with an old friend of mine ashleigh with her mum and we walked together.

      We walked into this room which had a stairway. ashleigh said it was great fun and we should all go together. we went into the stairway and it was getting smaller and thinner, in the end to get down the stairs you needed to lay on your stomach and try to slide through the hole. once everyone got through we noticed that there was 3 tiny little steps that we could of walked across to get to the same place.

      Once we entered the game begun we had to find a way to open some kind of a door or window. I found a switch which i pressed and it made something in the other room buzz, we went to inspect. Other people from my school were also in the room, but not just from my highschool but from my uni too. Me and Mary saw a pretty vintage phone on the wall and i was really upset for not bring my SLR camera and i asked Mary if she had one she said she didn't bring it but she had a normal camera. I said well i don't need a normal camera i need a SLR. so i went back into the previous room to find my bag which had a normal camera in it that i could use anyway so i went and saw it on the table, ashleighs mum was still sitting there and so was 2 other girls from my uni... the end?

    15. Coloured circles

      by , 08-04-2011 at 11:36 PM
      I had a dream which had an old Buddhist kind of feel, or like something off airbender (haha) . Anyway i was there with my parents and it was like an opened huge section with stone walls surrounding it, it was very beautiful. I was there with my parents, and i found some kind of circle on the ground, i called my parents and told them. they got rather excited and we all went off to remove all the snow from these circles. as we got deeper through all the snow we started to see the circles had a colour and an inscription, as we neared to the floor all of the circles started appearing and we were all excited to recover such a mystery. Once all the show was pushed away we could see a huge circle.. of circles we then took the colour from the circles and put them into pots. My parents got each colour and put them in an individual pot but i had mixed them all together in a sort of mess. My colours had then started to go a browny colour but theres was all bright and beautiful. The colours had turned into those… sweet rollers. like the fruit rollup things. i took my sweet gooey colours and ate it, it was very sweet and overwhelming. the dream ended with that?
