    Non-Lucid Dreams

    1. August 24th

      by , 08-24-2010 at 05:52 PM
      1. Not many memories of this one but I know I had it, I fell back asleep almost as soon as waking up and didn't write anything down.

      2. Somewhere with lots of brick buildings, also remember something about colorful eyes.

      3. Oddly lacking in visual memories of surroundings. I remember I was with a small group of people in an area that gave me a creepy feeling. It was an abandoned city of some sort, industrial mainly. (While I do not remember visuals I somehow just knew.) We were trying to leave a '200 mile cordoned off area' according to one of the DCs and were passing through this city while searching for supplies. The sun had either just set otherwise it was a strange, lighter night than usual. Strange creatures appeared occasionally in the night and we drove them off, I think we might have lost someone at some point, after a time gap in the dream we were in some kitchen and the group was looking somewhat more nervous and sad. I;m not sure if someone was actually missing or not as I do not know the number we started with. We continued searching the kitchen and found, along with some canned food, a pot of soup that seemed relatively fresh. Most the group decided not to risk it, one did, a boy about 13-5 years old. Just before eating some of it, a clown head floated to the top of the pot. Another time gap happened there and I found myself in a third person view of an interrogation room. I saw two of the DCs get interrogated separately, though I do not remember the questions I know they were related to leaving the area and how they managed to survive.


      Possible influences: The first two, unknown. The third: I just recently started playing the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl. Also watched Stephen King's Desperation.

    2. Video game world!

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:56 PM
      This non lucid dream took place in a video game. However i am in the video game world with many real people. Lots of friends and some family. It was long and vivid, hopefully i won't leave out any important details.

      Throughout the video game world there are portals and doors leading to other areas to explore. To open these doors/portals into other areas 4 gems are needed. You must find the four gems and place them in the correct order in the ground to open the next door and to advance. I remember starting in a dungeon. The dungeon is pretty straight forward, like in a video game. There are some corridors that branch off of the main one, but they all eventually lead back to where i was before. Throughout the dungeons i am finding gems. Each set of four gems will be placed correctly to open another gate/door/portal. I don't remember where we found the first four, but we found them, this opened the next area to us and let us search deeper and deeper into the dungeon. As we explore the next area of the dungeon we find another set of gems to open ANOTHER deeper part of the dungeon. At a certain point it occurs to me that we missed one of the 'gateway openers' where the gems should have been placed. almost everyone else disagrees and thinks that we should just continue. I say that "we can't beat the game without going to this other area that we missed" but no one heeds to my warnings. after going deeper and deeper, farther and farther, and exploring many more levels we leave the dungeon. We come outside into a rain forest type environment. I find a little pendant and swear that it is important to the room i think we missed. once again no one heeds to my warnings, and we continue on. The last room i remember reaching was shaped like a cross. We walked in through the bottom of the cross. On the left side there was a portal, no doubt leading to another world. On the right there was the same thing. The last portal straight ahead and on the head of the cross was bigger and probably the most important. I turn to my brother and ask, which do we go through first?

      Surely i am missing some stuff, but this was a long dream and i got everything that i could remember. it also triggered my to recall another dream from last night!

    3. Obvious..

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:53 PM
      First time writing and being on this site.
      Just woke up and started thinking about the 2 dreams i could remember..
      I was with my best friends girlfriends sister ( Don't fuckin' ask )
      and we go to a pool..
      But we don't go swimming, and she says shes going to go take a piss.
      And then another random girl i know said "I know how we can make this guy move" so I look over to see some random dude in the parking lot lying down with a boner..
      Random girl friend walked up and kicked him right in the nads while i laughed at him..

      Another dream is weird..
      In school with one of my mates, and he's one of those guys who doesn't cut his hair -.-
      And i started to right down all this japanese shit
      Hiragana..I wrote down from what i recall..
      "sa, ki, ru, yo, n, ka, a"
      If you don't understand Japanese don't worry.
      Then my mate looked at me like i was fucked up and laughed because i miss-spelt a word and when i looked back at it, it was in english..
    4. last few nights

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:34 PM
      8.24.10 It's been a few days since i posted my dreams so on the next couple entries i will try to get as many as i can remember. This first one is from a couple nights ago

      SAW(7?)
      I can remember where it started. I can remember where it ended. I walked in to the movie theater. Sat down and started watching the newest saw movie. I walk out of the theater thinking That was not what i expected. It was more like a comedy. It didn't even have the characters from the other saw movies. I guess this means that my subconscious has some interesting new ideas and twists for the next saw movie.

    5. Wave 26: Sigh... another shitty one

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:05 PM (The Meerkat's Lair)
      Yay another DILD where I wake up instantly! Sigh... but NEW RECORD! 6 DREAMS in 1 NIGHT!

      Dream 1: Something to do about my schoolbus.

      Dream 2: I am Spongebob trying to infiltrate Squidwards house, which is a maze. I think of laying flat on the wall til he passes but he sees me. Damn it.

      Dream 3: Sometimes im on the comp, sometimes im not. Depends First im not. I am in a car with Russell
      Crowe. When our car ride is done, I decide I will collect celebrities. There was a name, but i forgot However, to get a celebrity, you need to go through a series of hallucinations, mostly scary ones (like SP). I pick Cameron Diaz on my comp, while Amelie is watching me. Im not in front of my comp anymore, but inside a purple tunnel. A big smiley face appears before being crushed by spikes in a bloody scene. I dont recall aquiring Cameron, and I pick another star. The screen starts with HI but then the screen comes back to the home page. I immediatly think something scary will pop up and the home page is part of the trick. This proves shocking enough for me to wonder if im dreaming. While im doing a successful RC grandma is walking towards the room. Now I think to myself: Ok, im dreaming. Great. And of course, I wake up. Again. Nice

      Dream 4:
      Part 1. Im a thief running away from cops. On rooftops. Video-game style. The kind of burglar like in a cartoon. You can also pick your character, all I remember is that the burglar holds a bag of money that slows you down. So at some point im cornered by two policemen. One has a gun but doesnt fire, the other a HUGE fan. He turns it on towards me and I fight against the wind to shoot it with a Charged Beam which I apparently have. I remember thinking: Come on thats not fair! I manage to keep running on other rooftops. Then I start again. All over again. Until I somehow hear about a secret escape through a prison that baffles police dudes. I try to find it but my mom calls me to go in the pool. So I quickly find my secret which is like a place you jump in and pop out at the other side.
      Part 2. In my backyard it is foggy, cold and even raining a little. I ask my mom if we really have to go today, but its because Francis, who is fat, needs to train and do more physical exercise for his ankles. Me and my sister hop in while he hangs around. Suddenly his ankles start hurting like hell and he screams in pain. He leaves the pool.

      Dream 5: I have lived this dream before. Today? A week ago? A month ago? I dunno. But it was not my first time in the following dream. I have to save a princess, or something like that. Not sure what, but its very important. I am in a church with tons of persons on the benches. In a dramatic entrance, my partner Arnold Schwarzenegger comes inside with a ray of light. We both go in the middle and he does a ritual with an onion. While he does this bad guys jump to attack us and prevent whatever were doing. In them is Fonzie (but old, like in AD) and Lindsay Bluth. There are more I cant recall. Arnold throws me the onion and in reflex I throw it to the bad dudes. I immediatly recognize my mistake and manage to take it back. Once the ritual is complete, the princess is born inside Camille, and shes gonna have to blow up to give it birth. Nice. A parade storms all around. A woman is wearing a big orange afro wig. Another has puppets.

      Dream 6: I am talking to an old man in front of a shelve full of music CDs. He talks to me about how he loves Billy Talent and other Alternative/punk bands. Hes wearing a red jacket. I propose to him other artists from my music library, including Daughtry and Nickelback. Then when I mention Green Day, he says: Oh yeah, that was his girlfriend in hockey! And im like: Yeah! Uh...What? Thats it.

      Six in one. Yay! Thats gotta be like the whole freakin night! But with all this, 6 NIGHTS LEFT. I decided tonight is my last shot. If I dont get a respectable, full lucid dream in the following night (like my second one ) im pulling out THE HEAVY ARTILLERY

      That means RC every freakin minute, DEILD, MILD or WILD if fail, WBTB, even CAN-WILD if required. Im gonna read, watch, post, live the dream. The clock is ticking, but I WILL fly until school. Thats guaranteed. I will even talk to my parents about it and listen to MP3s if it is absolutely needed.

    6. Recall backish

      by , 08-24-2010 at 02:42 PM
      August 24: I was with trouble making teens in a neighborhood near an apartment and park. One kid started to do some tagging. Then I eventually decided to join in as well. Later on I was really Nervous because I thought cops were going to find me because I thought I tagged my name or nickname (if you searched facebook the nickname would be obvious). So I basically freaked out until I think I realized I was dreaming and woke my self up

    7. Amazing

      , 08-24-2010 at 10:34 AM (Les Rêves)
      I only have time to record this one dream, but it was amazing, at least in feel.

      I've woken up during the transition from one dream to another, slightly anyway. I transition straight into this attic which has a ladder that I am climbing. I'm lucid. The feeling is unbelievable, and not even the lucid part. I feel like I am standing there, and it's real life with a surreal touch. I can smell, feel, touch, and see everything so clearly. It is as if I am ACTUALLY standing there. I have experienced but once before in my dreams. It's unbelievable, as if my body has literally been transported to another world during the night. As I climb the ladder, slowly, I open the door that is on the ceiling. As I do so, sunlight streams in and I fly right up into the sky. I soar above the lands that lie below, and euphoria encompasses me. The realization that I am once again in my dream from a month ago or so hits me. I am amazed that i was able to tap into this feeling and world again. It is the actual continuation of that dream. There is golden sand scattered next to a gleaming, deep azure ocean. There is a castle fortress along with other buildings of a medieval appearance. The most amazing thing is that despite being far into this sky, hovering, I can see every detail of the land below. Off to the side there is a dark section of this land, where presumably the villain lives. She is actually female this time around, and I can feel her presence. But along with hers I can also feel Martinez's, who is trapped along with other people in one of the buildings. I don't see him, but his face flashes in my mind.. I need to get rid of the evil. The dream transitions..

      I'm on a bus with a group of students who posses magic, it seems. Or at least they are going off to magic school. I'm sitting next to an older teenage guy, although I don't feel like myself. I'm in someone else's body with their mind. I'm telepathic, and I discover that the guy next to me is as well. I say something to him from my mind, and his face displays shock as he discovers.. It's strangely beautiful, talking to someone simply from one's mind. I share with him my plans about catching the villainness. He agrees to go with me to fight. We escape the bus..and I cannot remember much more save for the fact that I am starring in a novel.

      These dreams were dreams of firsts. First time tapping into the same dream from a previous night. Unbelievable.
    8. Forest, skiing and voodoo

      by , 08-24-2010 at 10:30 AM
      Me and some other randoms were in a forest place that was rather cliffy and had some kind of canyon. Some savage-ish kids appeared and started to throw rocks on us. They threw quite big ones so dodging was easy since they threw slow. I tried to throw back some fist-sized rocks but somehow I couldn't throw right in a very dream like manner.

      We started to run away instead along the canyon which was now a forest stream. I ran through it since I had rubber shoes. I stopped and saw a Physarum Polycephalum (lol) on a mossy branch and I thought "Awesome! Too bad I don't have time for this now... :/" and then I kept running.

      After a while we arrived in a place which I can't say if it was outside or inside in a large storage thingy. There was a cliff in there at least. I noticed how the surface of the cliff was loose in a huge chunk. I realised that it could be nice minerals behind it so I bent it over, exposing what was hidden behind. I found like five or six different crystal pieces.

      [Now there was a small memory loss but I think the next section still was a part of the same dream somehow]

      The place we were at was now a skiing place with tall hills you could ski down from outside. Fred was there. Somehow during a short part of this section I had a discussion with kim on irc while the other stuff happened. I don't recall about what. I was wearing skis and I went out to go down one of those hills and I think I did. Don't remember much of it though. Then we all decided that we wanted to buy some food, so we went to a food store. It was snowy outside.

      In the store I was suddenly wearing ice skates. At the checkout, the checkout girl said "Sorry, you aren't allowed to wear those in here" or something. I excused myself and she said that I had to help in the store because of it. She showed me to the shelf were they sold batteries and I was instructed to tidy it up. I said that I know how it is done because I had worked in a store before. I started to line up the batteries nicely on the shelf and removed some empty boxes. Then I saw some half-rotten fries with dressing in the corner of the shelf. I thought "wtf" and started to take pieces of it and throw it away in a garbage can. Under the fries there was salad and some burger.

      When I had dug below the fast food, there was some other stuff. I only recall that there was a red deformed potato and a piece of ginger both wrapped in plastic. I continued throwing the stuff away until I saw some human teeth below the stuff. I was disgusted by it and noticed how the teeth was stuck in some strings in a circle or something and in the middle of the circle was two voodoo dolls that someone had hid there below all that stuff.

      I was a bit creeped out by it and I didn't want to touch them. The other people who I was with poked them in the face and they were slimy. We discussed a while about them. Then strange things started to happen because they touched them. Some strange nick joined the irc and posted some threatening stuff related to the dolls. I don't know if much else strange than that happened, lol but everything had a "strange things are happening" feeling to it. Fred wanted to go home so he went to get the car (he can't drive irl). I told him I wanted to get a ride home. When following his progress on a map we could see that he got lost.

      I think I woke up at this point. It was not a nightmare, but it had a creepy feel to it.
    9. Reverse plot: attempt to pick up additional details, WILD attempt, started in non-lucid >.<

      by , 08-24-2010 at 07:41 AM
      24-08-10 Gonna start from the end, as the beginning seems very blurry, much of the dream could have transpired during my snoozes that happened over an hour. I am talking to Sam about something, the woman from before is interrupting in what might be Norwegian, I seem to understand some of it, but although it sounds strange and makes me a bit suspicions, I write it off as wishful thinking. People are exiting the bus, I am waiting behind as I need to get to the top floor to get my backpack. As we are coming to and end of the journey I continue my conversation with some of the younger guys, I explain how awesome the train policy in Germany is regarding group tickets (missed the train sign), some of the younger guys have asked Sam (a younger Sam Winchester, only in resemblance, residue) if they are really going to Amsterdam. We recently got to Holland and as this comes to my mind, I say it it sounds interesting. This conversation is happening on the top of the pier, a pier I have come to like over the past few days, there are 4 or 5 of us now present. “Sam”, his best friend the younger guys and the outsider, namely me. I am still in awe about what Sam and his friend have just done, the reason we are now sitting atop the pier, that rises very high above the surface of the water. The journey back up to the pier starts in the ocean, I wonder why Sam's friend doesn't swim as it will be quicker, but he seems to prefer walking on water. As I come to the flight of stairs I notice a lot of silver worms in the sand (Residue, you guys should have seen the size of the creatures I saw at work yesterday) I quickly head to the top and await the others. I quickly swim over to Sam's friend and tell him what they just was insane and amazing. They placed themselves in the top of a box stacked upon another, and tilted this from the top of the pier into the sea. Funny enough the boxes actually don't just fall down, but slam into the side of the pier sling shooting Sam and his friend under it, but I somehow know that this is what they intended and both come out OK. Think this is where I first saw the woman who spoke in Norwegian, short blonde girl with a slim face and very very long hair, not all smooth, which sort of goes with the crowd we are hanging out with.

      Blur!

      Oh and here is what I remember from my second dream ! I wake up, I know I have to go to work tomorrow and I know I am only in my first REM stage, I am really tired so I quickly find a post-it block and jog down a few bullets from my first dream, wow that was quite short but amazing. I might as well try to WILD, as I might have to leave the minute my alarm goes off, I lye down, focus on my breath with the intention of going to sleep, I use my breath checking on a lower frequency than before, as I recall how aware and awake I can become if I focus on it too much... I soon drift off and go to sleep...
    10. Just Not Maya

      by , 08-24-2010 at 05:18 AM
      It is the first day of school. I look into the music room to see if it is my first class. I see Nevin inside but I'm still not convinced that it is the band class. As I walk a bit further down the hallway I see Robert getting out a trombone.
      "Robert playing an instrument? What the hell?"
      "Fuck off."
      I start heading back to the music room because I know it is my class, and on the way I meet Maya.
      All of a sudden me, her, and some other person are walking down Trajan's road to my house. Maya looks different and has a different personality, but I still know it's her. When we get to my door she doesn't want to go inside. The other person heads up into my room. I convince her to come inside and then I sit down with my parents to eat dinner (something with pre-grated cheese on it). Maya is acting really strange and goes behind the counter and stands behind my mom while we talk and eat.
      There is a volunteer night for sailing but everybody's invited, so me and Maya head down to the basement to pick out some alcohol. We find some Jack Daniel's on the shelf but I notice that there is ice in it. I realize that it must be my father's. Instead we find some hard liquor in a turquoise bottle that is olive flavored and for some reason that sounds like the perfect thing to bring, plus nobody will likely notice that it's gone.
      The party is on the same strip of the harbor that the Thunderchild docks at, but there is a bungalow on the water there.

    11. August 22-23

      by , 08-24-2010 at 04:45 AM (cluelesspug's Dream Journal)
      1. I was in a movie theater watching Avatar. My dad and sister were in the row in front of where me and a friend sat.

      2. I found out that if I step on a tile on the floor of my classroom, then the corresponding tile in the room next door would light up. I started stepping on all of the tiles in the room to mess with the people in the other classroom.

    12. Fragments for August 22 2010

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:56 AM (Sailing the Noosphere)
      1. I'm dressing in my room to go to my old high school. I'm indecisive, and wind up taking clothes with me into the school bathroom. I change several times, but the bell rings when I'm in a long-sleve shirt, shorts, and gym shoes with long socks. This is an ugly combination and I have a minor panic attack as I have to go to class.

      2. I'm walking the streets of a generic city with my mom. Together we enter a Jamaican-themed hotel, where a steel-drum fronted band is playing a tropical tune. My mom steals the bass and rips off a solo, then throws the bass to me. I miss, and the bass crashes to the floor. We leave and go to eat, and I am rude to her as dinner conversation continues. She reaches a breaking point and tells me tearfully that she's hidden three divorces previous to my dad and my own conception.
    13. Taking innitiative, without control.

      by , 08-24-2010 at 03:07 AM
      I thought I would just upload some of my dreams I have recorded in my DJ. Also a few past dreams I had when I was younger.

      Mythic Date: Unknown; Lucid: Yes
      This dream is one from the past. I was this strange creature, blue, with colorful designs, bipod like. I was in this strange world, blue skys - littered with clouds, beige rocky canyon with very shallow water running in it, like a tributary but the water was a bout 2 inches deep. Very warm. Waterfalls pouring into a shallow pond/lake. I remember seeing a female version of my species, whom I felt VERY attracted too. Like your first love or true love, this was the affection I had for her.

      I remember a ship dusting off and departing from the the world, and me and my counterpart had waved a goodbye as it left. I assume it dropped us off on this to colonize/repopulate? seeing as how we were the only species of our type on it. I remember seeing kids, for some reason I think they were mine so im assuming I have good relationship skills. This was one of my favorite dreams, the feeling of deep affection for someone is like none other.

      Slenderman Date: 8/17/10; Lucid: No
      I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with the Slenderman but this is my dream about it. I was in this Halloween looking town, dark with reds and oranges and blacks. I see decorations of witches and pumpkins. I'm in a group of 3 people. Me, an attractive woman with red dyed hair, and the Slenderman. Suddenly my dream switches settings.

      I'm now in an underground bunker, that seems run down but not derelict. It is populated with humans and it seems to be a commuter town. Water is draining from plumbing pipes that are sticking out of the cracking/breaking walls. I now switch over to the attractive woman. I remember sitting in bed with a drape over the side, it is very bright and I remember talking to the Slenderman. Now I switch roles again and I am the Slenderman. I seem to be thinking of evil intentions but not acting on them.

      Technicality Date: 8/22/10; Lucid: No
      Im using my laptop. The setting is my room. On my laptop I'm using BitTorrent for some reason. I appear to be downloading some program that doesn't exist.

      I'm now in my old town that I moved from. I remember my neighborhood and how nostalgic it is. Nothing more after this.

      Pokemon and Civil Wars Date: 8/23/10; Lucid: No
      This is a strange one. I'm not sure why I even dreamed about this. I see Team Rocket from Pokemon. I mean, the original Team Rocket, Jesse and James. It appears to be a live action reenactment of the show, but the actors look just like the anime characters. They were having a talk at a dinner table and discussing over something. Then the live action actors turned into the anime characters as the dream went on.

      Now I'm waking up, preparing for classes for college. I'm taking a shower but now my friends are in my house, talking and planning to do something. I change my clothes and walk downstairs to my deck. I look outside and see the Civil War happening in my backyard. I see a Confederate man and a Union man fighting. At this point, they both lose ammo, pull swords out and slice at each other. The Confederate wounds the Union soldier and then he executes him with a primitive pistol. Suddenly, the British from the American Revolution start charging at the Confederate and they kill him. I dont see blood or anything in this.

      Nightmares and Death Date: Unknown; Lucid: Yes
      I had a nightmare of being chased by rabid dogs. Huge dogs. I remember being bitten and not feeling the pain, but I felt shock and panic. I finally thought to myself "ENOUGH!" and the dream stopped in its tracks. I then proceeded to dream about more relaxing dreams. I've never had a nightmare since.

      I remember being on the Empire State building. I'm looking over the city, although its just a few skyscrapers and nothing more. Next thing I know, I'm falling, though I do not feel the experience of falling. I hit the ground, but instead of waking up, I wind up in a white room. Nothing but white. I cannot detail the size of the room but for some reason it seems big, unfathomable.

      I-Phone

      I was at my family home in Masterton. My brother had left an i-phone there. I took it with me, he wasnt even at home so I didnt think he would mind. I ended up at my old school, the old principle was there and he was very old. He wanted to say something to everyone so I helped him to the front of the auditorium. He started talking about i-phones. One of the kids in the audience pulled out his i-phone and started showing everyone a movie or something. The principle was impressed and I think he wanted one. The it ended and I was waiting out by the corner where I used to wait to be picked up. It was night time, my mate came over and started talking about some mushrooms on the ground, I told him they wernt the right ones and would make him sick. I started telling him about the new mushroom patch I found at home but was careful not to tell him too much as he would definatly go pick them. I told him how we took too many and lost our minds on them. I then realised it was daytime, I was sure it happened way too quickly so I RC'ed and my pinky finger didnt pop out of my hand! Dammit the first time this RC has every failed me! I ended up having an FA and writing down my dream only to wake up and do it for real haha


      Drizzt

      I only remember a fragment. I was Drizzt Do'Urden and thats all I remember. Gutted cos this dream would have been apic as fuck!!!

    15. Witcher Video Game

      by , 08-24-2010 at 02:04 AM
      I was a witcher like in the video game. I have a group I am traveling with. We were in a building exploring. I went back. I used a metal pan as a mirror to look behind me for some reason I don't remember. I was cautious. I walked slowly and carefully. I could hear my foot steps and nothing else. I made my way to a room. there were others witchers there. I had a brief discusion. I opened the door and looked out. I could see werewolves lurking about. We subconsciously agreed to attack. I charge forward while drawing my sword. I cut and slash and kill one. the dream changes to 3rd person as if I am playing a video game. I touch the screen on the next one to attack. No mouse. Killed it. I switch back to 1st person. I see the others holding a evil zombie like girl upside down by the legs. There are two girls the same. two witchers on each. Someone keeps saying look at the pretty bikini girl. The girls are wearing bikini underwear and miniskirts. being upside down I see all. Someone pinches up a part of the vagina. I know I must kill but I cant. I walk to the other and and someone puts a blade deep inside her vagina to the hilt. I am disgusted and saddened. I turn to the other. I reach out for her and she shrinks into a barbie doll. I throw the doll to a big stationary monster. It is a blob of flesh with stubby arms, no legs and all teeth. It grabs the girl and eats her head first. I can hear bones crunching and flesh tearing. I wake up suddenly.
