non-lucid

non-dream / dream / lucid

Sonhei que eu estava no meu quarto (onde já deveria ser mais de meia noite) assistindo um filme (provavelmente Corra que a polícia vem aí/The Naked Gun), com a luz acesa. Depois, resolvi ir até a cozinha. Lá, encontrei um prato com várias fatias cruas de bacon. Curioso sobre o gosto, resolvi experimentar. Percebi então que o bacon era a carne de porco que tinha sido servida na virada do ano (com filetes de bacon em cima).
Terminando de comer o bacon, fui para o banheiro escovar os dentes. Não me lembro mais o que aconteceu, mas nesse momento eu suspeitei em estar em um sonho.

Today is by far my worst recall day of the year. :( This is what happens when you get less than 7 hours of sleep. :?

[COLOR="#808080"][/COLOR][COLOR="#1E90FF"]1) Fragment: I'm looking at the forums and looking at one of the threads icedawg started. I don't actually read the post - I just look at icedawg's avatar, etc.

2) I'm scrolling a map, kind of like a video game. I overshoot where I wanted to look at and see India. India has people working and the farms are being farmed. There are blocks like in Minecraft that the people are working on. I scroll back up [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](there was probably more here, but I forget) [/COLOR][COLOR="#1E90FF"]and when I scroll back down I see that India has been evacuated. There's no one there anymore - the whole place is gone. They had to leave because they were too poor, and it's really not fair that they had to leave their homes. I figure they must have gone north to try to work in some American industrial city.

It's a holiday, and either I got something for my brother or I didn't. There was some commotion about this, but I can't remember. My mom is there, too.

3) We're in a game of Minecraft and I decide to harass Mark75. I'm going to cause him lots of problems by griefing his area, so I destroy the blocks around him and mine upwards. I go to the edge and look back, and what I've done is much worse than I had intended: He's trapped now on a pillar all by himself. I must've destroyed pretty much the whole map. There are just two pillars and even the ocean floor is gone. Someone else is atop the other pillar (Seeker?).

4) Same as 1. [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](Literally, the exact same fragment. I woke up around 6:00 and had that image of icedawg's stuff that's to the left of all his posts, and when I woke up around 10:00 I had that exact same image in my mind.)[/COLOR][COLOR="#1E90FF"]

5) I'm on X Street and it's become a swamp. There are people floating on rafts. I notice two of them - TheLucid and someone else [/COLOR][COLOR="#808080"](I forgot who.)[/COLOR][COLOR="#1E90FF"]. The latter had an avatar of a doll with straw hair.[/COLOR][/INDENT]

Okay, this is my first Dream Journal entry. I Might as well say this now: I have bad dream recall, thus my working on this.
I do not know how many dreams I had, nor which ones I am describing here. I will begin with what I first remember.

In this dream, I was a child, a boy, probably on a school trip. I remember being in some sort of mall, with lots of food shops around. All of the other children were eating at McDonald's, and I was eyeing this one girl, sitting there with the other little girls. Something happened, and I wanted to pee. Looking around, I saw no signs of a bathroom, so I decided to open the zipper on my jeans, and pee inside the trash bin. Don't worry, it was the organic-labelled one. The dream gets cloudy here, and the next thing I remember was exiting some place, probably a bathroom, and going to another restaurant.

Now, I do not recall which one it was, but I may have seen it in one of Amsterdam's airports. Or was it London's airports? Well. I enter it, and one of the clerk guys offered me some sort of food with blue cheese and a beer, I do recall that beer being an English one. I order it, and then someone I know inside the dream appears. A woman, no more than 30 years old, but I do not recall her face. Only that she was wearing something that may have been pink. She starts to scold me for not being with the other children at McDonald's, and my comeback to that is:

"But McDonald's is the worst place to eat! They make horrible burgers."

Now, it gets cloudy again. I remember eating what I ordered, some sort of cheese sticks and...I do not recall what else, but they were absolutely delicious, creamy and gooey and cheesy and wonderful. And, I may speak, I've never eaten blue cheese in my entire life. The same woman appears again, and I offer her some of my food, saying something like "Here, you will understand what I mean.". She proves it, and, like me, finds it wonderful.
"See? I told you it was good." I tell her. I offer my food again, saying we could share, and that is all I remember from this dream.

Now, in the next dream, I was in an Airplane, the last seat. It was preparing to leave, so I was getting ready, buckling my seatbelt and everything. Then, the airplane departs, and I'm no longer seeing myself, but the airplane, as if my eyes were a camera on the top of it. Lots of ducks were flying, trying to avoid the turbines, and the pilot comments on it. "Lots of ducks here, we're going to move to another place.".
Suddenly, the plane has legs. Mechanical legs, of course, that I was not seeing. But I was hearing the heavy smashing sounds. Even with legs, it was going at 300km/h, according to the pilot. More travelling, and finally, we find some sort of downwards highway, in which the plane starts to fly.
That's all I remember.

That's it, folks.

Oh, yeah, in some part of it, I may have been playing Rift Online, and, astonished, may have tried to ask around whether the game was in an early open beta or not.
Fin.

Apple from Fridge
I get an apple from the fridge, walk over, and sit down on the dining room chair. My sister comes out of the back of the house and says to me
"So yah, your gonna have to drive me to the funeral very soon, like now actually"
For some reason I do a nose pinch RC....which doesnt work. This was the third time I did it in the dream, and for some reason, nose was plugged in it.
I said, "Do I have to?"
Michelle said, "Get your butt off that chair and take her"
Tina then show me a note, showing me a note from her ex, to tina, after I saw him one day. He said something along the lines of he never wanted me to meet him ever again, and he hated my ass. I thought, how rude. She said he was just mad that she dumped him. I shrugged my shoulders
End of dream
Dream Guide LD
So, I am walking along a street, and do a nose pinch RC, it works, I'm a little surprised, because everything is a bit realistic. The dream starts to do that weird rotation on me, when its about to fade, so I rub my hands, and do a little spin, and then shout STABILITY PLZ. I get mediocre stability, something Id prolly expect from being sick for so long and forcing a lucid. I go up to the nearest person, whos this aztec old lady. I ask her where my dream guide is, and she pauses for a moment, and then says, on 21st. I say, That far away? Come On man" She pauses again and says, its right up on the left. lol. So I go up to this house, and ask the lady of this hostel type place where my dream guide is. She says right through the door in the back. I open it, and its this young white dude with metallic blonde hair. He's just putting up his sheets on his bed like he just woke up. I ask him how to recall my dreams better. He gives me a quirk and says, "(He also said not to tell anyone, only to tell them to meet their own dream guides)" I laugh a little, and say, are you for real?" He chuckles, and leads me outside. I get kicked out of the dream, and I say HELL NO in my head, and I concentrate, relax, and reenter in the same spot. He seems a bit happy that I could do this. I look around at the scenery to get a grip on the dream, and prevent it from fading. Then we start talking. He starts morphing into an old friend of mine, and starts making crazy faces at me. I laugh, and he says," Get a girlfriend, its best to lose the-" Dream fades, I reenter, and he's up on the building, he waves me up there , and I try and climb, and he laughs, kicks me off, and says, "Jump" I jump, and he smashes me to the ground. I faintly here him say as the dream fades "Better luck next time."

Overall a great dream, and very funny. He seems like a cool dude, one that likes to morph a lot, as I suspected in the beginning. Even his energy sig morphs a little. But he taught me what I wanted to know at the time, so all's well.

Disneyland Arabian nights
I was in some sort of pool, and an event where people slid into the pool. We were under a gazebo. My Dad was there,so was Michelle my stepmom, and a couple of my brothers. Then one of my friends Jeff came to meet my Dad, and he held out his hand to shake, and my Dad refused to shake it. This surprised me, and he said that my friend looked like a hillbilly bum. As he said this, my friends stomach got really large for a second(RC) absurdly so, but I waved it off as a trick of the eye. My friend scooped my Dads limp hand up, and shook it anyways. I told my friend, lets go, cause I was pissed, and we went to meet up everyone else. As we were walking along the disney resort, there were these purple tents that looked like Arabian disney/magical purple tents that everyone was sleeping in. We either jumped, or ran to the tent where everyone was at. This dream was really realistic btw, I thought this was actually happening IWL, even though I was aware of my surroundings, I was surprised to wake up in my bed And once we got to the tent, everyone was there in the group that I met over in California, and then this other dude showed up. They started discussing money to pay for the tent, as it was rather expensive, and I said I'd stay with my parents. They were like, "Ahh thats too bad". We continued to have a great time, and thenI woke up in my bed and was like WTF, where am I.
Astral projection attempt
I was in the vibration stage, and it was hurting like a motherf-er. I continued to try and project, and then I began to see everything around me without my eyes open, which made me open my eyes, and that shut off the projection. I closed them again, and was vibrating, opened them, wasnt. I chuckled to myself. I did my best, but I felt that I didnt have enough energy in my weakened state. So I decided just to go to sleep.

Pretty much, Ive been really sick, to the point of developing a rash, but I figure if I really do my best to recall my dreams, and do WILDs and shit, then when I cease to being sick, Ill be phenomenal at it. Sort of like training with internal weights. ITs really difficult too lol.




BTW, I came across an old task for WakingNomads meet your Dream guide for his Shared Dreaming class yesterday, and I was like WTH, and decided to do it. So, belated success my friend. belated success.

I was at some sort of camp thing. We had to set up tents on this lake. The lake had a rocky bottom and lots of water fowl. We were walking along the edge of it, trying to get to the end to set up the tents.

Something happened, and we ended up having to cross the lake yet again. But this time, there were a bunch of dead birds. I was in the lead, and I shouted to the back that the water fowl was dead and was causing the water level to rise. There was barely and rock, and we were walking in the water, clinging to the posts and trees by the shore so that we wouldn't fall in. I kept trying to tell everyone how high the shore was, but no one seemed to listen.

---

I was at home. I had to quickly make dinner since we had to leave soon. My mom was there too. She had made spaghetti the night before. I quickly piled some into my bowl along with some cheese. Then I spread out some apples and a few other dishes. I watched the spaghetti explode in the microwave, and was worried that the bowl would shatter too. Luckily it didn't; it just came out bubbling and steaming like mad. I quickly ate the spaghetti and then realized that there was fruit to be eaten too.

---

I had the most wasteful LD ever. I was in a room, seemingly a changeroom, with a booth that seemed like a restaurant booth. I decided to go to sleep on it. Then I felt myself separating from my body. I floated up and let myself rise as much as I could, until my head bumped against the ceiling (that hurts a hell of a lot more than you would think O.o). But, my throat was parched to the point it hurt, so I swallowed, and that sent me spiraling back to reality (!@$%#!*&@%^#!%^%# &!^# ^!#$^ &#!$ ).

---

Had some other dream, can't remember it at the moment... will edit if it comes back to me.

Been waking up more than usual, I didn't feel like I did get any sleep, but thinking about it I remember an army? And a sandy base. The second I re-read my dream Journal for Yesterday, I remembered the sandy base which then lead me onto remembering some sort of army, or someone dressed in the uniform.

I don't remember quite what I did, I don't remember seeing myself. But I do remember that I wasn't walking... I think I was floating?
A confusing dream. Shame it wasn't Lucid - what I was hoping for.

Whilst trying to become Lucid - I kept telling myself, stopped and then tried getting to sleep my eyes started to change, I could no longer concentrate on anything. The way I clear my mind, is creating a store, clearing it of racks of items and just leaving the counter. The counter being my objective. My mind stopped concentrating on that and just went away, I wasn't thinking of anything. But I do know I could feel everything, I was hoping I would make the switch around the time, but I'm unsure how to execute that at this point in time. I'm currently using DILD. But as suggested, I won't try properly until I've done a week or two of my Dream Journal. This is certainly a new enjoyable experience.

Vividness-7
Control-0

Before i went to bed i kept repeating in my head "im dreaming" and then i fell asleep then about an hour later i did WILD. So i finally realized i was ina dream but i couldnt control myself or anything. So i just finally let myself go with the dream and so in the dream im at school and we are talking about trigonometry(i hate it) and then the bell rings so i go to next class.but like always i wonder around he school for while and then the tardy bell rings and then they get me in trouble then they send me to 2 period but right when was about to go to class some kid stopped me and wanted to sell me stuff and i was like "what kind of stuff". But i find out that all he was selling was teddy bears so i was like ok so then i just left and as i was opening my 2 period door i woke up.

Can anyone explain to me why knew i was dreaming but couldnt control myself or anything else?

Took 1 100mg b6 pill last night. Tried a new technique out which did work. The technique is simply repeating in your head "I am lucid dreaming" while thinking of those words in your head. Worked for me last night. Anyways here's what i remember from last night.

Lucidity-7
Vividness-6

I'm in my house. All i can remember is that i think i'm dreaming. I plug my nose and understand that i am dreaming. I still have doubts so i shove my finger through my hand and move it around. It hurts some when it comes out but it verifies that yes i am dreaming.

I walk outside. My mom's boyfriend tim doesn't want me driving the car.(in my dreams when powers don't work for me i just drive around) He takes it out back so i can't use it while he claims he needs to work on it. I pretend to care. I say, " oh darn now i can't drive it" while i sit down in it with the keys. I close the door, lock it, turn on the car. My mom and her boyfriend are banging on the windows trying to get me to stop. I press the gas and i'm off.

This part is hazy, but i think i went to school after that. I'm not sure, but i just remember that women were around.

Dream 2

Lucidity-0
Vividness-8

I only remember half of this dream, the second half. I'm running around a yard throwing molotovs and axes at other people. I'm pretty damn good at it too. Eventually i run out of Molotov's and come down to a be-be gun pistol with no ammo. Someone starts chasing me down. I'm faster than him and once i pass a corner i jump into a car. I load up the pistol with a shot and head into the house. I was apparently trying to find something, but i don't remember what or who.

Dream skip to my school where me and my friend are hanging out in the cafeteria. I pick up a laptop from a fridge and start playing it. A girl walks up to me that i know and asks about classes. I say i don't need to be here and i'm only here for fun.

I've been asked to audition for a teacher. Somehow this audition is a huge life-changing deal. She has already decided to reject me - that's clear - and the audition is merely a formality. The trouble is that my music isn't played by someone born into a wealthy enough family for her.

I start. She immediately covers the keys so I can't see what I'm doing. Fine, I accept that as a teaching technique with some students, but it's a little weird at an audition. She then starts demonstrating arpeggios, Hanon moves, elaborate sostenuto progressions, the works. I'm out of practice and intimidated. I'm not about to show her the music I've written - she's a hostile force.

This is right after I've been introduced to two unattractive gentlemen and asked to choose between them. "Neither" was not an accepted option, so I am now on the blacklist with this piano woman.

Finally, I've had enough. I start playing Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer" - and not perfectly, either, but just because I like playing the song.

She stops the audition and asks me to talk to an adjudicator on my way out.

Before this, I'm on my way to the audition room and I'm walking through a huge house, very clean and spacious. I see lions and antelopes and other huge beasts materializing before my eyes - some of them being ice sculptures, yet alive. At one point I say there are lions, but my sister says, "Lions? There are no lions," and gives me a significant look as if to say, "Don't tell this lion he's a lion!" I pick up on that and say, "Of course there are no lions, because there are no predators. Lions eat people." Then I catch a hurt expression in the lion's face, and I hastily add, "Except the good lions, of course."

Real-life parallels: I've been helping my 20-month-old nephew play the piano. He keeps trying to close the keyboard cover. I showed him how to sweep the keys with his palms and he's fascinated with trying to do that. My sister has repeatedly been correcting things I say in front of the child and ways I deal with the child - in a nice, toddler-friendly voice, of course.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! I'm trying to fix my sleeping schedule, so I decided to have a REM rebound day today. Only got a few hours of sleep...

Bedtime: 03.30

07.45: Fragment
*I'm eating mackerell, pineapple and round sandwiches.

07.45: The SP nightmare
I'm in SP. I know what to expect and that it's all in my head. The hallucinations still hit me full on and it's terrible. Somehow it's worse than it's supposed to be and I get scared. I can feel pain in my chest and it feels as if I'm being crushed, all the while hearing an extremely loud sound. I wake up in the dream. I tell a few people about the experience. "It felt like I was trapped there for hours. Like I was being shot right in the chest, over and over"

07.45: Seduction, FAIL!
I enter the taekwondo dojo. Everyone seems to be glad to have me back and I shake a few hands. The master tells us to line up and I get in line at the back with all the white belts. After a few seconds I realise I am no longer a white belt, I've got my green one. I push my way through a few people and end up at the front. There must have been atleast fifty people there and we have to make several rows with people to fit in the relatively small dojo. A female teacher with big breasts stands before the lines of people. She starts giving us instructions on how to warm up correctly. It feels more like Yoga. Stretching and doing super easy dance moves.


The dream skips. I'm in the dressing room. "Hey Matteh, are you going to take a shower or what?" a guy asks me. "Nah, I'll probably do it at home" I tell him and walk out the room in only my underwear. I check if the shower outside is busy. It is, and I realise it's the girls shower. I walk back inside and check the sauna door that leads to another shower. A girl is taking a shower in there. "Hell no, this is the guys shower" I say to myself and enter the room. I walk in the shower and stand before the girl. She smiles at me and knows she's in the wrong place. "Can't we do it together?" she asks me, rubbing up against my leg. I can feel her pubes prickling my leg. I pretend to be interested for a few seconds. I am just about to kiss her, but I push her out.

"Get out" I say and close the glass door to the shower. She won't give up without a fight and stands outside, looking cute. I spot a small red light coming from up above. She's videotaping me with a camera. I tell her it's pointless, I won't do anything as I've already got a girlfriend. Even though I can feel something grow in my pants I refuse to give in to the temptation. Suddenly I'm talking to my friend G's sister. She asks me what kind of cellphone I had back in the days. She shows me a photo of a girl and I remember having an Ericsson.

07.45: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 3½ hours

Supplements before bed: Nothing

That's it! So little sleep, but still recall. I hope I'm getting better and better at it. Would love to dream every day of the week when I start working again. I aim for a lucid tonight. Let's hope my intentions are enough.

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

Well, here I am again, awake. I've been awake since 12:30. I have to be up at 5:30 anyway to be at work at 7, so I figured I'd just go ahead and post the one dream I had. Won't be going back to sleep anyway.

Bold=dream

I was in my family's bonus room. The light was very bright, and everything looked very clear. I was with my friends B and C. We were shooting rotting, gray zombies as they came at us. It was kinda like a video game. B used her gun to shoot 3 in the face enough times to bring them down. I said "Let me try!". She handed me the gun and 3 more started coming at us. I shot them in the neck and face, but one was very close and almost got us. I ended up bringing them down before they could reach us. C took the gun from me and took his turn at shooting zombies. After that, the dream started to become eerily realistic. It didn't feel like a game anymore. It seemed to get darker in the room, like it was nighttime inside, but still light at the same time. Very strange. Zombies are everywhere now, not sure where B went, but C was still with me. I become terrified for my life. C said "Don't let them get you..."

Then, I woke up, half expecting to be in the bonus room. I was panicking. Also, I looked at my phone to check the time, and C had sent me a message 20 minutes before I woke up, which was kinda weird.

I took a melatonin last night, and I'm thinking I probably shouldn't do that again. I used to take it a lot with no issue, but I guess that's changed. That nightmare was way too realistic for my taste...

Non-dream Dream Lucid

Im not sure in which order I saw these, but I think they went something like this:

1. I had a FA. I walked out of my room, but then it turned into a nightmare (like my FAs allways do). And like allways it was about my parent/s trying to kill me. This time I was given two ways to die, other one was cooking me (how pleasant). Fortunatly I allways get lucid in FAs, but unfortunatly my dream control is pretty near 0. Im not sure what happened next, but I remember hiding in darkness/smoke that suddenly filled the room.

2. I think this was the part where I had about 5-7 FAs in a row (frustrating) before i woke up.

3. I were in my school, but the teachers were unfamiliar (someone explained that it was another school that looked like ours). We watched a film that was about some sailors going on an island (at least I think it was an island) where some men had been murdered in the forest, but the people living in a village didnt know about it because the governant didnt want anyone to know about it. But the sailors heard about it from the kids in the village and thats all I can recall (movie plot worth an Oscar). I felt really tired, so I tried to sleep all the time.

4. I was going to store with a scooter, but for some reason I started going back home before I reach the store. I come to a street where i think my home is (it isnt) and at the end of the road there is an replica of my grandparents house and yard. I accidently fall on top of my grandparents dog and two (dead)cats and they start chasing me (that "dead" means that the cats are dead in real life).I close myself into a closet and realise im dreaming. I try to teleport somewhere else and kinda succeed, but instead of getting somewhere else my dream changes and I lose lucidity.

5.I saw an sloth chasing a grasshopper in somekind of white box (like universe would be nothing but flat, white floor as far as eye can see) then they both fell out of the box and then it changed to some kind of game where you had to activate "soul totems". Soon after that I woke up.

Plans: This is my first night of the new year, though I don't have any special plans going on for tonight. This may or may not have contributed to the fact I have only a couple fragments of non-lucid dreams to post, which while these dreams are insignificant and dumb, I am journaling them to stay in the habit of remembering and journaling.

Free the Holiday
I am in an office, this is where I work, and there is an office meeting going on right now. I look around the room and see the other people I work with, and also the boss is in there addressing all of us. I am sitting at a computer, working on finishing up a system backup of one of the many servers I am responsible for. I am in the data center of a hospital working as a computer operator, which means I am also responsible for answering phones and responding to issues that users throughout the hospital may have… and this is the part I hate. And it is because of this that I am completely miserable right now, sitting there at the computer, looking at the phone, actually afraid that it could ring at any moment. And while the whole team is present in the office, I am the one currently on duty, so if the phone rings I will have to answer it. While I am afraid of the phone ringing, the boss is talking about an upcoming holiday, saying an operator will have to be on duty for the holiday, and we are taking turns covering holidays so no one person is forced to work on all of the weekends. He is now announcing the person who will have to work on the upcoming holiday, and he indicates a black man who I know works the same shift I have… so at least I won't have to work that holiday. He is getting mad, however, saying that since I just started work here I should have to work for the holiday instead of him. The boss isn't pleased with the other man's attitude, he says the holiday schedule is based on taking turns, it's not based on seniority, and it is his turn now, so he will work on the holiday. I feel some degree of relief that at least I won't have to work on the holiday.

Poison Desert
I am out in the desert around my house, it is sunny out, though it isn't especially hot. I decide to take a shortcut through some open desert so that I can get home a bit quicker, so I follow a trail I know off into the desert. It is a fairly long trail, and I haven't really explored the entire area, so this will be a first for me. I come to a place where there is a large sewer tunnel entrance, and there is a small warehouse type building next to that with some equipment and stuff in it that is used in the sewer system. I think it is odd that there aren't any roads leading to the warehouse, so I decide to investigate. I go over and look into a window, where I see many barrels of toxic waste… or I am assuming they are toxic due to the radiation symbols all over them as well as the skulls and crossbones. One of them is being emptied into the sewer system, and that seems like a really bad thing, so I think I need to get some evidence and turn these idiots in. I am considering breaking into the place when I see there are people in there, so I had better wait until there aren't any people there. I move a bit away from the building and then I notice there is someone coming out… shit… I do a couple stretches on my legs and then I take off down the trail jogging as if nothing is wrong at all, as if I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary. The man is yelling to get my attention, I don't want to stop because he might be suspicious, so I keep going, pretending I haven't heard him. As I get out of sight, I put my earphones in figuring if he catches up and says something I can say I had my music turned up too loud. Would that work? No clue. I continue, moving at a good speed, until I finally reach a main road. I head down the street towards my house, which isn't the house I currently live it, it is the house I lived in previously, and I haven't lived there for about 10 years…

I think I started to get sick this day, which might explain the weird and stressful dreams.

Jumbled Mess
0845: Software at work is breaking. We buy something close but it fails two. I want a chance to fix it. The whole thing catches on fire. I think if break it into pieces, it will work. I try to convince people I was wedding chaplain in the army. On a beach with a big bon fire. Also like SAV home office.

Weird Father Dream
1045: Father trying to sell solve computer problem. ... try to call Google but their office won't open for a few hours. He3 suggests we break into their office and steal what we need. I say let's not be so hasty. Since the problem can wait, no sense committing a crime. We can solve it any time during the week, when their office will be open.

Then similar situation in a college class. Father want to cheat on a test. He tries the ... way into a parking lot to avoid the fence. He wants to lie to the professor about being on vacation.

More Paranoia
1205: Trying to solve math problems with my sister. Don't have a calculator. My father's truck is in a parking lot. The brakes barely work. Security cameras everywhere.

Entry #1.
Sleeping period: 10.5 hours
[ ] Lucid [X] Nearly-Lucid [ ] Non-Lucid [ ] Nightmare [ ] Controlled
Comments: Bad memory of last nights dreams...Not much to elaborate on.

I was at my locker with Mika. It was dark, and the halls were crowded. I was showing her my new dress that I had stored in my locker. This is the first time where I nearly became lucid. I started to wonder how I had the dress there while the dress was also at home. I simply dismissed it, thinking perhaps I had two of the same dress and I had forgotten.

Then I was in bible class at school, the classroom looked as it does in reality. I asked to go to the restroom, I went without having to fill out a pass. I got lost in the hallways, the school was like a maze suddenly and everything was more complex than reality. I came out at the west exit inside. Mrs. Landes was there, she passed by and said "You did well on your test." This is when I realized that I needed a shower. It was so ridiculously important, I absolutely needed a shower. I could feel that time was quickly passing and I was going to be in trouble for missing class. I almost, ALMOST became lucid here...My instincts were telling me to keep going and not stop to get a shower.

Abruptly, I was with my mom. I can't clearly recall where we were...But I think we were in the car on the way to New York City. I was crying and telling her how I missed all of my classes, since the day was now night, and my teachers were going to be angry.

Somehow, it turned back into day. This part is a bit blurry. I sort of remember being in the cafeteria of the Native American museum in Washington, D.C.. The next clear part is walking up a city street with Clare, my friend. A cathedral is in between buildings, it looks like it doesn't belong. I don't remember the rest, but I sort of think I may have woken up at this point.

And there we go. My first dream journal entry...It wasn't too bad.
