    1. 01/13/2011 - "UFO, EMP, WTF"

      "UFO, EMP, WTF"


      I had been hanging out with a few friends. Josh was there, and there were a couple of girls along with us. We'd spent most of the night just partying and just getting into a lot of shit we weren't supposed to be. I remember being in a garage, sitting in the passenger seat of a car, and one of the girls from the back seat slithered up front to sit on my lap. Looking back, though, I can't say that this is a girl that I already knew in waking life.

      Later, we were supposed to be going to a house party, but when we got there it was completely abandoned. It was the middle of the night, and there were still a couple of cars outside, even though there was apparently nobody home. Ultimately not caring, we all just decided to hang out there, and have our own little party. So we started just getting hanging out and getting hammered. The whole thing seemed completely wrong, though. Everything was dark and ominous, and the house itself had a really run-down, horror movie type of feel to it, as if it were a cross between the Bates motel (Psycho) and Springwood High School (A Nightmare on Elm Street). Even though we were just having a grand ol' time, there was still this foreboding feeling that we just shouldn't be there.

      After some period of time, we were all outside. The house was somewhat in the sticks, and even though there was a least one neighbor nearby, there were acres and acres of land, around us. Suddenly, in the dead of night, we heard the electronic whir of some sort of aircraft above us. We looked overhead and there was a small cluster of about 3 spot lights beaming down through the clouds, sweeping over the house and surrounding area. The machine was hovering, just to high above the mist for us to make out its shape. Still, it was easy to see it was like nothing I'd ever witnessed. Just as suddenly, a convoy of military vehicles roared onto the scene, tearing through the grassy field beside us, and apparently chasing the flying vehicle, which had shifted off to the clearing behind the house. There was something huge going on, and we weren't even sure if we were allowed to be on this property. We figured that it would probably be best to get the Hell out of the area, before the military decided to come back, and 'interrogate' any witnesses. However, when we tried to start the cars, they were all dead. Everything electronic was dead. Apparently, we figured, that thing in the sky had triggered some kind of EMP, and we were now stranded. (Didn't realize that this didn't explain how the military was able to drive in across the field. Oh well.)

      The next thing I knew, it was the following morning. I vaguely remember waking up in a friend's car. We were trying to leave again, and this time, the car was starting. The only thing left was for me to check my car...which was suddenly nowhere to be found. I exploded into panic, jumping out of the car and scoping around for mine. Josh suggested that I might have parked it around back, with some of the others. I went around the side of the house, and into the back yard. There were a a couple of cars back there, but most of them looked run down, and mine was nowhere in sight. I'd gone back around to the front of the house and found the rest of the group in the garage. They were tending to the girl who had been with Josh, and she was apparently very sick. She had these mysterious bruises that just showed up, all over her body, and there was suddenly blood all over the section of the car where she was sitting, which apparently came from her. Everybody was freaking out, because this girl was apparently getting worse by the moment. I was immediately reminded of the snake things in the movie The Ruins, and I couldn't help but think that this girl had them crawling around beneath her skin. If she was somehow infected with these parasites, we were all in grave danger, and we had to get out of there. Now.

      There simply wasn't enough room for all of us to drive off in the only car that we had, so I knew we needed some other mode of transportation. I ran back around to the back of the house and started looking for a car that might actually start. There was a really dope, customized Camaro, but it turned out to be a piece of junk that simply didn't run. Another car, which seemed suitable from afar, seemed to suddenly morph into a child's PowerWheels type of toy. Finally, I came across another car, which looked a lot like mine, except it was a convertible of a different color. We somehow got it started, piled ourselves into both vehicles, and drove away to try to get some medical attention.

      That's all I remember.

    2. The Blockbuster for Horses Restaurant

      by , 02-01-2011 at 09:11 AM (Brainy Vapours)
      We - the kids, me and my husband - are going out for dinner to a restaurant. The kids I have are the same as my kids in real life, but my husband looks like an old broken down version of The Architect from The Matrix. There is a general feeling of stress about our venture to the restaurant. I don't remember eating, I just remember me and the hubby having a big fight and being really bitchy with each other.

      It's late and the kids are miserable, crying loudly. People in the restaurant are looking at us. I can't get one of my boys off the ride 'em toy car that they have in the restaurant to amuse children. The husband is getting more and more angry, more and more impatient. It doesn't help when I tell him I intend to get my horse. Part of the reason we came to this restaurant is that you can take a horse with you after you're done your meal. Kind of like a blockbuster but with horses and a meal involved. The husband is not impressed, and since he can't drive the car home (he has no license), he growls that he will take the kids and walk home, meeting me later. It's not too far from here, so I agree. He stomps off in a huff.

      I rush over to the corral part of the restaurant and go about picking my horse. I grab the first one I can find, she's kind of a caramel colour with a long light coloured mane that she tosses around, whinnying loudly. I bring her up to the lady at the "check out", feeling stressed. I want to get out of here as soon as possible, so that grumpy husband doesn't beat me home.

      The lady at the till has long tightly curled frizzy hair and she looks at me and the horse dubiously. She asks me why I took this horse. I say that I chose her because she's spirited and full of energy, like me (). The lady takes her from me, saying that this horse is a bit too young and wild, that she will bring me a more appropriate horse. I am guessing she means for my noobish level of horse riding. The horse bites her as she is lead away from me, and that pleases me a little, giving me a feeling that maybe the horse chose me, too.
      They bring me a very calm horse who almost looks a bit like a donkey. He's dark brown and black mixed fluffy fur. She tells me he will suit me better. I'm stressed now, it feels like this is taking too long, so I agree and we head off to the car.

      On the way to the car, I tell the lady about my relationship troubles, illustrating the problems I have had in the past. She doesn't seem to care. I try to impress upon her how dire the situation is with my hubby, but she just feigns interests, but not convincingly. We get to the car (which is a mini van kind of thing) and I see a load of garbage all along the floor of it. Embarrassed, I search through the garbage for my keys. I find them after some stressed minutes. As I look at the keys I notice that the car keys are missing, so hubby has taken them! This irritates me, for some reason to do with the fact that he has no license. In my dream he has taken the car to drive home, but that makes no sense because the car is in front of me.

      Now that I am apparently ready to go, The horse lady showed me what to feed my horse. She pulls out this thing that looks like a sandwich. She asks if I have seen these before and I say I think I have but I couldn't ever afford to buy them before. She shows me that when you break the sandwich apart there are whole foods inside, like vegetables, fruits, and noodles. She says I must feed him only these. She begins showing me some long drawn out demonstration of another snack to feed him, and I try to pay attention, but I am so stressed now and really want to get going. I am sure that hubby is at home waiting to yell at me now.


      The dream ends when my kids wake me up. How disappointing, I was so close to riding that horse!

    3. The Old Dog

      My Notes
      Non-lucid
      Lucid
      Awake

      Last night was the first night I went to bed at a proper time, so I didn't get much sleep as I wasn't as tired.

      I remember having quite a long dream, but then I got out of bed remembering it was back to school for the first time in 7-8 weeks. Because I got up so quickly, I didn't remember most of the dream. Here's what I do remember:


      I was walking outside. The grass was a faint green, and there were old farm fences everywhere. Behind one of the fences was a dog. He was old and slow and walked up to me.

      Yeah, that's all I remember of my long dream. My six hour alarm didn't wake me up because I took about 3-4 hours to get to sleep.
    4. Battling Non-Lucidly...1/31/11(Early Morning)

      by , 02-01-2011 at 03:41 AM (INeverWakeUp's Super Dream Journal)
      I find myself non-lucid on the distant planet Namek. The planet must've been dying. Lava arose from the barren landscape of the planet. My friends and I had to find the ruthless tyrant Frieza. We head out into the intense land. Suddenly, the dream's view changes over to Frieza. He was badly hurt. He was in his final form 100%. His surviving men were placing armor on him. Frieza's power was so strong, his armor kept bursting. Then, they finally got some good armor on him. The view changes back over to me. My friends and I are heading towards Frieza's space craft. Wait, did Goku fail?! Shit! We'd better do something. Oh fucking fiddlesticks! Frieza's men start pouring out. Shit! I pull out a grenade launcher. Suck this bitches! I launch a grenade and kill more than half of the soldiers. Then more come out. I launch another grenade to finish the job. We enter his ship, then I'm at planet Earth.

      Oh shit. I'm soon informed that Frieza's here on Earth. Oh son of a bitch. My friends and I are ready to defend. We power up, and we fly to the battle at super speed using our ki. We quickly arrive at the battle. We get ready. I grab an AK-47 and open fire on Frieza's soldiers. Then, a ki blast penetrates the left side of my chest. I tumble back in pain. Dammit. It's over. Then, I
      awake.

    5. Airport Jaunt

      by , 02-01-2011 at 03:20 AM
      My dream started in a kitchen, witch became a restaurant in an airport. I am here with a friend and I see a family member walk by. We greet each other and continue on as if we were waiting for this person to go.

      On our way we stroll outside and are met by a guy who walks and talks to us. I try to be reserved as I talk as I do not know if he is dangerous. I tell him "no. I don't represent anymore" as if I was a gang member.

      We return inside the airport and we are waiting in a large sitting area. It is getting late and we are getting ready to sleep. Another person I am with shouts out "she isn't supposed to be doing that!" I look behind me and see an east Indian young woman cross-legged in an elevator in the middle if the floor. I look and see another in the distance.

      We wake in the morning and I am tryin to change my pants but someone walks by as soon as I try. We are walking through the airport looking for terminal b25, but we are at b21 and we came from b20. I carry my daughter upstairs but she is so heavy I cannot lift her, I can barley make it to the top of the stairs.

      Later I am with 3 others, two of witch are an older couple. After a chat the husband walks away. His whole body becomes shaky and fuzzy. The old wife is talking to me when an announcement is made that a ring has been stolen. The security guard I am with rushes to the aid of a newly wed couple. I LOOK AT MY HAND, and see my ring. I know They think my ring is the stolen one, I see a camera watching me. I run with my friend through the airport. We go into an elevator and the elevator shoots water at us on the way up. I am upset until we immediatly go down. On the way down air dryers warm and dry us up. Now i am happy and excited for the chase. We exit the elevator and see escalators and run up them. My friend gets to the top and meets the guard. I try to run up but can't seem to move up faster then the escalator that is going down. I break out in a hilarious laughter and think it's funnier then he'll. I happily give up and run on the same floor at the bottom of the escalator. The guard calls out and my dream ends

    6. Smoking Grandfather

      by , 02-01-2011 at 01:33 AM (The Labrynth of the Mind)
      I have a vague memory of doing a reality check during a dream, and counting only 9 fingers. I can't remember anything else about that one.

      The Fashion Show

      I am at my old high school. This building is a lot bigger though. There is a fashion show going on, in which there are a lot of nice looking girls. I spend some time hanging out with them, and it becomes some kind of computer program where I complete certain tasks to get points. For example, I talk to a girl and get an amount of points, then I take her out and get some more points. Eventually I have enough points to "buy" a girlfriend. Oh yeah, the "points" are also pickled jalapeno peppers, if that makes any sense at all.

      After the flirting/dating/computer game/ jalapenos/ experience, I go to find a bathroom. There is one down the hall on my left. I look at the sign to see if it is the men's or women's, but it is difficult to read. I can see the word "men's" I think. I walk in, and enter the area with stalls. An older woman comes walking out, and looks at me funny. Realizing my mistake, I quickly leave. Examining the sign on my way out, I see that it actually says "women's" but the "wo" part is wearing off.

      Smoking Grandfather

      We go to visit my grandfather. He has a lung ailment, but has taken up smoking. He seems to think that chain smoking will help him feel better. We try to convince him that it is suicidal for him to do this, but he claims the cigarettes are harmless. He offers my brother and myself a smoke.

      Walking around the top of some mall, my mother and I discuss why my grandfather thinks smoking would make him feel better. I say it is becuase nicotine numbs the nerve endings in his lungs, making them feel better.

      I try to convince my grandfather to stop, but instead he just stops taking his pills.
    7. Nuclear War, Missiles Launch

      by , 02-01-2011 at 01:30 AM
      a
      Date: January 31, 2011

      Only one dream as I didn’t go to bed soon enough.
      Nonlucid

      I am in the living room of my childhood home [again! My childhood home!] and I look out the front living room window. [I have many dreams logged on paper about seeing big and even futuristic things out of the front windows or door of this house.] I see a cloudy bluish sky at dusk [the homes that would really be there are gone.] Then I see lights flying through the sky behind the clouds in the upper sky. [Again many UFO dreams from this place as well.] The lights move fast and shoot up over the sky in an arch, I take this to mean they are nuclear rockets. I am sure there will be a huge nuclear blast nearby soon and run with my dog under the closest thing I can get under which is a blanket. I think about how long it will take and how freighting it will be before we die.

      Then there was a dark interlude that lead to a picture story with an understanding on what the story is. It was a story of how the universe was trying out different leaders and that it had found one that would not start a nuclear war because he was “the only one that would not consider using them”, and thus he was the leader in this working version of the world [there were 3 before him]. The other versions did not work because of the global annihilation.

      non dream - lucid - non lucid

      Went to bed early because I was tired as hell, I didn't get enough sleep the past few days.

      I'm in the classroom I'm taking most of my current exams in.
      An exam is currently in progress, my Game Design teacher is there and I have a paper with exam questions in front of me.
      I study the questions, I have to write 3 concept papers given a few basic ideas within 3 hours.
      That's cutting it very short, I'm a bit scared I may not be able to finish this in time.
      I let my mind wander, trying to find some inspiration about a massive multiplayer game, where the players take the role of fruits.
      Making such an idea work really requires a lot of creativity.

      I have trouble coming up with any ideas which is unusual, I decide to take a one minute mental break.
      I play with my pen saying with my inner voice: "This is a dream"
      This gets me thinking, which set of rules currently applies, which world am I in?
      The answer I come up with surprises me a bit. I'm in the dream world.


      I'm surprised how easy it was to come to this conclusion.
      I stand up. My teacher looks at me surprised.
      "What's up?"
      I grow my wings out of my left arm. I have a specific goal: visit Yuya.
      I'm happy that I quickly remembered this goal.

      "Sorry, I'm afraid I may have to bugger off"
      "Excuse me?"

      I lock on to Yuya's aura and prepare to teleport.
      The wings start glowing in rainbow colors.

      "I've taken this exam a few days ago!"
      "Oh.... right..."

      I teleport.
      This is the first time I don't black out during a teleport or by traveling through a portal.
      Even though the teleport lasts only a split second, I can feel how I travel through the fabric of space.
      It feels like there is a near infinite amount of entities all over the universe, I can feel so many aura's!
      It's a very good feeling.

      I'm on Teraluna, hovering a few centimeters over the ground.
      Yuya is standing right in front of me, waiting.
      I stop hovering and drop onto my feet, the wings disappear.
      Yuya is wearing a different outfit than usual. She's wearing something much more comfortable, something you have an easy time fighting in.
      She immediately jumps me, giving me a big hug.

      "Heeeey!"
      "Hey, I missed you!"

      As we hug I remember how I got into a deeper dreaming state last time.
      I already closed my eyes for the hug, so I try to concentrate on my other senses.
      They become clearer, but I don't have anything to eat.
      I let go of Yuya and open my eyes. I don't think I'll ever get used to it, it's as overwhelming as it was the first time.
      I'm confident I managed to anchor myself in the dream world.

      "Let's go!"
      "Where to?"
      "I promised you an adventure, didn't I?"
      "Yes!"

      She forms a portal behind her, without making any gestures. She takes me by my hand and drags me in.
      I form a protective layer over my skin because the tunnel we're traveling through causes a lot of vibrations.
      No wonder I blacked out the last time, this is not a very comfortable way to travel.
      We get ejected from the other end of the portal, into a different world.
      I barely manage not to fall onto my ass yet again, I don't like portals.

      What a crazy world! It is made mostly out of sand and stone, but everything looks very clean.
      As my vision becomes sharper I notice the beautiful sky.
      There are many close moons and even a planet visible in the sky.

      "You better prepare yourself, we're not welcome here."

      I change my energy into my dragon form and power up. I feel ridiculously powerful, with a slight urge to set stuff on fire.

      "That's better!"
      "Why are we not welcome here?"
      "Can't you feel the dark energy surrounding this place? It's everywhere. This world is full of demons
      I'm curious as to why that is."

      She's right, as I widen my sense of presence I can feel many dark aura's. I'll try to remember that they are easy to distinguish from other entities.
      I'm excited.

      "Let's head to where the energy is strongest then?"

      I suddenly notice it's snowing. I'm not wearing a shirt or shoes, yet I'm not cold at all.
      My own energy is keeping me hot. Yuya doesn't seem to feel the cold either.
      I feel a dark presence approaching over a close by bridge, I look at it.
      It seems to be a big samurai, wearing many layers of worn down and broken cloth and a typical samurai hat covering his face.
      He's drawing his katana and approaches me carefully.
      Yuya takes a step back.

      "Don't be afraid... you have all the weapons you need." (I don't even notice the Sucker Punch reference)

      I focus on the inevitable combat, I'm ready.
      He charges, but I am so focused on him I have an easy time slowly dodging his attack.
      It doesn't feel like time slowed down, more like my brain is working much faster.
      As he cuts past me I punch him in his side, and release some energy whilst doing so.
      He shatters into a thousand pieces, it seems he was made out of wood.

      "A wooden samurai?"
      "Someone must have summoned them, they don't have a free will. Let's head for the tower"

      I see the tower on the other side of the bridge, the dark energy is strong there.
      As we run over the bridge I take on a few more wooden samurai. Yuya doesn't intervene.
      Even though they don't pose a challenge, I start getting a better feel of my energy, how much I need to release in order to do a certain amount of damage.

      We stand in front of the tower and a huuuuge stone golem is summoned right in front of us.
      It's at least 100 meters tall, full of dark energy.

      "Errrr.... Yuya?"
      "Yes?"
      "What yes? giant golem???"
      "So?"

      He starts approaching us, every step he takes causes massive vibrations in the ground.

      "What do I do?"
      "Kill it?"
      "Like what, punch it? are you kidding me?"

      She positions herself between the golem and myself, facing me and thus turning her back towards the golem.

      "A punch didn't kill the samurai."
      "No... my energy did, but this thing is huge... how do I?...."

      The golem is now very close.
      Yuya creates a bubble of water in one of her hands still looking at me, she really doesn't seem to care about the golem.
      She compresses the water into a very tiny bubble and holds her hand towards the golem.
      She shoots a high pressure water beam out of her hand, cleanly cutting the golem in two.
      Both pieces fall to the ground. This is absolutely ridiculous.
      "Are you kidding me?"
      She chuckles. Exactly how strong is she?
      "Yeah, I may have overdone that one a bit"
      But she thought I could take on the golem? How strong am I?

      I feel a dark presence behind me and turn around.
      The bridge is filled with at least 100 samurai.
      They simultaneously draw their katanas.
      I want to take them on, but it's too many to kill them one by one.

      A punch didn't kill the samurai...
      I point my right hand towards the samurai. I can't do a water beam, but I must know some way to project my energy.
      I power up, the dragon tattoo becomes hot. The samurai charge.
      But it's alright, I remember now, one of the dragon techniques.
      I release my energy as two tunnels towards the enemies, a big one and a small one inside.
      I turn the inside one clockwise and the outer one counter-clockwise, grabbing onto space as they turn.
      The release of energy vibrates strongly through my body, I feel the fire wings on my back and the tattoo very clearly now.
      All the samurai are crushed into pieces instantly and their remains whirl around until I stop my spell.

      I turn towards Yuya, extremely proud of what I just did.
      "Did you see that???"
      She starts laughing highly amused.
      "Seen you do bigger ones than that."

      I finally begin to understand how things work, how to release energy, what amount of energy to release.
      I'm very excited.

      "Do you hear that?"
      "Hear what?"
      "I think someone is trying to contact you?"

      I try to listen, but there is nothing.
      Then I notice that she didn't mean a typical voice, rather a telepathic one.
      Yes, I can feel it, but I can't understand what he or she says.

      "I can't understand it."
      "It's weak, seems to be from another plane."
      "Plane? like, dream plane?"
      "Yes. There are many different planes. It's hard to communicate across planes if they are far away from each other"

      I try to communicate back.

      "I can't hear you properly. I'm Hyu, who are you?"

      After a small pause I can hear what I think is a name, but it is too unclear to understand.
      I think it is a female voice, I think she's a dreamer.

      (I can recall the rest of the dream only vaguely)
      After the failed communication attempt we enter the tower.
      There is some more fighting and we find some sort of dark energy crystal inside the tower responsible for summoning the monsters.
      Yuya destroys it.


      Notes:
      I feel like I'm getting better at remembering details and conversations which is awesome.
      I woke up at the end of this dream, at about 6am (went to bed at 2am).
      I immediately transcribed the dream after waking up because I was afraid I'd forget if I went back to sleep.
    9. 2 days

      by , 01-31-2011 at 11:34 PM
      Ok. I couldn't get on yesterday so...
      1-28-11
      dream1. I was at Atlantic...or Ardent...records. I watched as Skillet recorded an acoustic version of a song. It was "Never Surrender". Ben was singing. When they were done, Ben told me that he'd sang 2 others and I got this "ohhh" look on my face. THen I woke up.

      dream2. I was with a dream version of Alucinor, I think. I asked him when I'd get better dream control. "Alucinor" told me I would get better after a while. Then I woke up.

      Last night.
      Dream1. I was at my house. I was in my living room. I held a card that had a pic of Frodo and the ring on it. A RingWraith appeared in my house and demanded I gave him the card. I didn't. I ran into the hallway and we began to negotiate. I saw that the door to my room was open and I ran in there and locked the door. The 7ft tall RingWraith said I'd regret that and I pressed my back against the door, to keep him from forcing it open. He punched it open and I hid behind the door, screaming, "Oh please no. No no no! NO!!!" as he thrust his sword into my side and I screamed, "Oh God help me!! GAHHGHGH!!!!" Then I "died" and woke up @ 2:48am, sweating and freaking out.
    10. "WTF" January 28th, 2011

      by , 01-31-2011 at 11:04 PM
      Last night I dreamt that my aunt and grandmother were sick. They both had to go to the hospital so MCR and some other band came to my house and played at a party. My house was huge. Completely different from the house I currently live in. Obviously, I had a lot of money in this dream.

      Later, I had a dream that I was driving or riding something down the street. I cannot recall what it was because it was something that my mind made up. It looked like a big twinkie, honestly. I cam across some guy who told me this youth group was meeting at this building. (Which is weird because I am atheist) I went there and saw who I think was Katherine ( One of my random friends ). Later we were driving and Will my other friend was on his scooter the whole time behind me. Lucia ( my gf ) was also in a car but she was very young ( maybe freshman or highschool ). Later we were on the interstate and a burning semi-truck was about to lose control and explode.

    11. Couple of Frags And Sex Dreams ;)

      by , 01-31-2011 at 10:55 PM (Burke's Nightly Escapades)
      I was walking up some type of hill that seemed to be shaded purple. I immediately realized this was from a video game and became lucid. I was feeling like a sex LD, so i summoned 2 really hot chicks and we went into a nearby house. I'll let you fill in the details I abruptly woke up in the middle of it and was kind of disappointed, but oh well.



      I was standing in what i think was our church basement. The dream seemed to be in the third person view and i saw myself as about 12 years old sitting at a table across from the girl. She wrote something on a piece of paper and handed it to me. I can't remember what it said but somehow it got me lucid! I quickly jumped up and ran around the table, but, being stupid, forgot to stabalize the dream and it quickly faded. Damn, another wasted dream.



      I was in the hull of some sort of ship and there was a great storm going on outside. I walked near the window and coud see huge waves hitting the boat. I ran up on deck but the waves were coming over the railing. I dashed into the big tower thingy that the captain is in (don't know what it's called) and i looked out the window. Then, suddenly, I woke up.
    12. The destruction of the earth

      by , 01-31-2011 at 10:30 PM (Insane Kid's wacky dreams)
      THE DESTRUCTION OF EARTH:

      Well this dream followed another dream that I recall being quite epic, but I can’t recall what it was. The transition between these two dreams involved my little sister. I apparently “woke up” from this epic dream and wanted to tell her about it. However, it appears that she kept wanting to talk about the color black. She was trying to explain how there was a difference between “black” and “velvety black” and I was all, “The hell? My dream had black in it, let me tell you!” (good thing she didn’t let me). She went on to explain that you could tell the difference on how a velvety black was “deeper” if you crossed your eyes while looking at it. I went along and crossed my eyes which transitioned me into a purely black scene.


      This black scene slowly started throwing stars out everywhere and finally a large sun. I was out in space, in a space ship and I could feel the gentle heat on my chest from the sun. Down below was the earth. I was rotating the ship around amazed by how the space was infinitely black in all directions. (At this point my sister sort of was “narrating”) However, as I turned completely around, I noticed that the entire outer space was white like a blinding light in that direction (The transition ended at this point, so my little sister disappeared from the rest of this dream). I thought, “That is odd, almost as if there was a large explosion!” which right then my view changed to view three huge planets soaring through outer space, propelled by the explosion of one of the largest suns. I thought, “wait, those are coming at us, they will hit earth!” I turned my ship around (I had been sort of coasting in the direction of the explosion) and pushed “full throttle” as I zoomed back to earth. I suppose I “told” the people there what happened (though I never saw this part, it was like me just being there let them know).
      So apparently at the time, space was highly explore able, lots of people (myself as well, obviously) owned personal space ships. Going from *livable* planet to livable planet was as easy as walking down the road, however FINDING a planet (other than the already charted ones) that was livable was a different matter entirely. So, at this point I suppose earth was being governed by 4 leaders and was split into 4 countries. There was the one that governed the area I was from, and he was good and quite “wize.” Then there was one from a rival country who was ridiculously war-prone, and then the two others didn’t really occur all that much in the dream. Anyway, these large evacuation ships took off from the earth containing all who lived on it, flown by their leaders. The war-prone idiot took a lot of convincing to finally leave and was constantly threatening to attack if we tried anything.
      So we were on our way, I was still in my ship, and as I saw the planets coming, I noticed they were going to hit the SUN rather than the earth. This led me to believe that they would cause the sun to explode, so the other four ships and myself did sort of a “hyper jump” (almost like an instant teleportation, but not quite) to a particularly familiar part of the galaxy right as the planets hit the sun. I was suddenly in front of another sun thinking something about how our sun was only a small sun, so the chance of a larger sun was probable (This sorta happened as we were “jumping”). As I finished this thought this HUGE (and I mean HUGE) star was in front of me. The thing was just massive. I could feel the heat baking down on me through the cockpit, and I started sweating a little. Now, unlike in real life, I could easily look at the suns. They were basically large yellow balls covered in fire (Like the pictures you see on the internet, rather than so bright you can’t see them).


      About now, something happened to the passenger ships where they couldn’t move (and I was suddenly on the one my governor was flying). I think it was because of the war guy. He was on about how they were low on food and was demanding us to give him some. Our guy was trying to explain that we just barely had enough for ourselves to last the whole year (apparently as long as it was going to take to find a livable planet). He went on to mentioning something about guys that didn’t go into “cold sleep” (I assume everyone from earth was stuck asleep at the moment) by tricking the system into letting them stay up or something like that. Then went on about capturing rats (where I questioned where the heck rats would come from on a space ship) for food. Well eventually the war guy got pissed off and left leaving us stranded (He took the other 3 governors with him). So really it was just me in the governor in this ship. By the time I ‘arrived’ in the room where the governor was at, his life was in danger. It was a circular room with a large hole in the middle. The hole was bordered by about 2-3 feet of walkway then a wall. From the inside edge of the hole down about 2 body lengths was a steep grade (probably a good 85 percent grade or so, almost straight down) . Inside the hole was vivid green light and some metallic structure which I assumed to be part of the engine. The governor had been trying to fix the engine but slid down the grade and was hanging from a ½ inch ledge at the bottom of the grade. If he fell, the heat from the engine would consume him instantly.


      I suddenly was carrying a bag of golf clubs, which ended up being quite lengthy ski-poles when I pulled them out. I reached down and was telling the governor to hang on, and he was having a very difficult time trying to grab the thing. He finally grabbed it, but jerked to suddenly. I was screaming something about not pulling on it, I would pull him up, but it was too late and I tumbled over the edge. Right then I noticed Velcro loops that were attached to the rim of the hole at the top every 4 or so feet. I quickly grabbed one which stopped me, but partially ripped out. The governor had somehow gotten up to standing on the small ½ inch ledge, but was quite prone to falling off with the slightest movement. I still had the pole in my hand so I lowered it so he could grab it and climb up (his head was still a good foot or so below my feet). He started up, and I saw the Velcro ripping more about to come undone. I started shouting at him to stop and specifically thought, “He better not act like one of those idiots in the movies that doesn’t listen and causes us both to plummet to our deaths.” However, he indeed did stop and I told him we had to get to the other Velcro strap. I sort of swung gently and awkwardly as he slowly sidestepped to the left pulling me over where I then tried to throw myself to the next strap. With a sigh of relieve I grabbed it and he started his way up where I then woke up.

      First dream in a long time where I remembered every detail. (With the exception of the rat part which is just barely fuzzy. Though that involved an explanation for something else as well I prefer not to mention)

    13. Day 2: My head is killing me

      by , 01-31-2011 at 10:15 PM (A Penrose Mind)
      Dream log day 2

      My goddamn head, it feels like someone drove two nails through the sides. A very loud FIRE ALARM went off in the apartment building today so I can't remember most of the dream but I can trace it back a little bit.

      There was a house. Everything was fallout 3-ish. I saw a skull and glasses on a table inside the house and picked them up the same way you would in fallout 3, point and click then it disappears into your inventory.

      I restarted this scenario 3 times as if I were playing the game. Each time was different. The second time the skull and glasses were on the ground. The third time there were two dead bodies (they weren't real, they were in the fallout engine as was the rest of this sector of the dream).

      They both had names showing they were husband and wife (same last names) but I can only remember the first name Glades, or something that started with Gl followed by a vowel, then a consonant, than maybe another, then an s. I'm pretty sure it was Glades though.

      After that I heard a disembodied voice tell me I would see a ghost in 3, 2, 1. And right on cue the apparition of the husband appeared appeared. I believed it told me something about how it died or something like that.

      I went through a door behind him which lead to the next sector of the dream. I was in the basement of my moms house (it looked a bit different) and I could here a voice upstairs. It was Bobbie's(used to be my room mate when I was living with my mom).

      As I ascended to the second level of the house I saw her there with some paper on the ground along with some scissors. I think she was making something, like arts and crafts or something.

      My projection of Bobbie didn't really reflect irl Bobbie, once again my projection of her was what I wanted her to be, nice, charming, and AGGGGHHH, WHY IS THE FUCKING ALARM BACK ON? JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! It isn't turning off so maybe I should just continue, or it's a real fire and I'm going to burn to death. Oh god it's three terrible noises being driven through my head all at once at a terribly high frequency!

      Ah, that's better. Put on head phones, there playing my theta binaural beats. I can barely block it out, the high pitch tone is still there.

      As I was saying, and not a stuck up bitch. She told me that she thought I was Charlie (my dog) and that I startled her. Charlie then ran up the stairs and accompanied her, although I didn't see him when I was down there. We talked for a couple seconds and I then found myself at a chinese restaurant.

      One again the dream topography was quite odd. It seemed that the chinese restaurant was where club paradise(a strip club) was supposed to be (Oh thank god the alarm stopped) and everything to the right was based off the Dupont and Symington intersection as there was a bank right next to the chinese food store.

      I think I sat down with my friends, Mansoor, Hudson, and Elmer, but I'm not sure. After we ate (I don't really remember eating) I got up and went outside. On my way out I noticed a lot of my friends were in the exact same restaurant though I didn't notice them coming in only going out.

      One of these friends was a kid named Diego (a projection of someone I haven't seen for years, though my subconscious did a pretty good job of growing him up) which is pretty funny, because one of my most memorable events with him was when we were arguing in the hallway about a yugioh card with both of our parents and while that was going on a fire in Diego's house started because his mother left something cooking on the stove for too long.

      Hmmmmm, coincidence? Maybe not. Perhaps in the first couple seconds of the alarm going off I couldn't actually here it in the dream yet, and Diego's projection appearing was how my subconscious acted towards it at first, since in a way the two are related.

      Strange thing was, inside the restaurant it was sunshiny outside, but as soon as I got out side it was raining immensely. Roberta followed me out and instead of walking home with me ran to the bank across the street and waved me good bye.

      I started heading in the direction of home, and that's when the fire alarm went off. Of course it went off on the surface which cause an immediate sector transfer. In the dream I woke up, the alarm was pounding on my head. I was told that when I got up that we needed to go to the lobby.

      I took my iPod and two pillows with me. My dad went out side and told someone in the hallway not to use the elevator. We then went down to the lobby, but no matter where I went I could still here the alarm. And that's when I woke up. It probably only took a couple seconds of surface time to wake me up, but I was in the dream for at least a couple minutes, like 7. I woke up around 11:20 a.m., 31st of January, 2011.

      Unfortunately the sudden transfer and high pitch loud noise caused me to lose some of my dream memory. I was under for at least an hour.

      By the way, I didn't get a lot of sleep last night, and by a lot I mean any at all. For some reason (probably cause I got up at 4:00 p.m. yesterday) I couldn't sleep at all. I had one unstable mini-dream where I downed a bottle of champaign, but it quickly faded out. My mind may have trailed off to a few places in the mini-dream but it wasn't enough to become a full fledged dream.

      Trying to achieve dream lucidity failed (seeing as I didn't fall asleep till around 10:00 a.m.) but then again I didn't have enough time to prepare for it. I'll do my best today to make preparations, I'll be practising the reality check and listening to the theta beats for today, along with doing more research, and hopefully this time I'll be able to do the experiments ¬_¬.

      But anyway, I'm pretty proud of myself for being able to remember my dreams so clearly these days. This dream log is doing better than I expected it to ^^.

      *Note, sleeping on couch achieving better results than sleeping on bed.

      Awake Non-lucid Vivid

      I dunno, this dream kinda hit a sore spot. I love my mum and all, but anything that we have in common, I kind of don't like. Hmm...

      Whichever parts in my dreams that I label vivid, are really the parts where I should be getting lucid at, because it's clear enough that I should be recognising dream scenes. However, I'm still inexperienced, but working on it. Now that I've got into dream journaling again (well... kind of.) then my dreams are really picking up again Now I just need to start back with my WBTBs and I should be sorted.

      My mum and I are walking along a hillside. The weather is cloudy and the hills are very green. My mum's talking to me about something, but I'm not listening. As always, her presense has dragged up memories that I'd rather bury down and forget. There are people travelling behind us.

      I continue to walk and stare at the grass. I notice that the parts I'm walking on, are much darker than the rest. I stop and ask my mum about it. We both kneel down and examine the blades. There are grass seeds everywhere. I cry out as my mum pulls up a handful of grass. I quickly grab the handful and put it back, wanting nothing out of place.

      "I wish we could travel more. I like it when we travel. Remember that time we walked all the way to Wales?"
      (these are past dreams that I'm mistaking to be memories. Strange huh?) "And that time we drove a helicopter into the mountines, and drove the car over the gap in the motorway and almost crashed? I like doing that."

      I couldn't admit to her, that although I love the travelling, she always gives me a sense of depression when I'm with her. That I'd rather walk the length of Britain with one of my friends, or my brother, instead of her.

      We keep walking. I get the sense that I should recognize something, but I don't.


      I woke up feeling strange.

    15. Drug dealing passport stealers, Love hotel, Lost in the subway

      by , 01-31-2011 at 07:26 PM (Brainy Vapours)
      I have memories of three fragmented dreams, all rather random...

      Fragment 1

      All I can remember is I'm out in the middle of the woods, at some log cabin home where this hippy type man and woman live. They are drug dealers, apparently. The man takes my passport and makes a break for it in his station wagon (complete with wood panel!) I chase after him, crying, panicked.

      Fragment 2

      I'm in an Indian themed love hotel searching for someone


      Fragment 3

      I'm lost in a labyrinth of underground train and subway tunnels. I keep changing trains trying to find my way, but it just gets me more and more hopelessly lost. I ask for help but no one can help me or understand me. I eventually find my ex (he's wearing this strange crepe type white shirt that has a 'stylishly' ripped V neck. He's laughing and nervous because he's lost and confused too.
