YMCA
Huntington Village
Gymnastics
Parallel Bars
Sitting

Okay, those were my words to remember this.

I walked over to the YMCA, i live near it, and I have a lot of friends who go there. Anyway I walked over, and sai hi to everyone, I hugged a girl and gave her the Oreos I owed her. Then my old counsilor told me I had to leave. So I went down the gravel and somehow ended up on Parallel bars. I swung down, released, did a backflip and grabbed the bars again, balanced, and did a front tuck. Someone was sitting next to me watching. I saw naomi lying down against the tree. I then got yelled at for being on the campus still, I pointed out that I wasnt on it. I was idly working on the Parallel bars while saying this. It didnt look like the YMCA i remembered, the parallel bars were where the wood should have been, there was no building just endless parking spaces (which for some reason didnt register). There was still the stage, the tables, ect.
After getting yelled at I went into the village. Hung out with a few people, but my dream was ending so i lost effects of it.
I then had a false awakening. Had to have been. But I rolled over and fell back asleep.
For the dream below this.

Surveying the Land (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

im back at the field i was at a few nights ago. i walk up to the barn and see some horses. i pet one and hop in the saddle on his back. im riding him around the yard waiting for somebody. the other persons horse tries to run away so i stretch my hand out and send the horse some calming thoughts. the horse stops. i probe the reins, find the right frequency, and pull the his reins to my hands. im sitting there waiting......

*jump*

im riding my horse down a street ive been on before thinking how funny it is that im doing that......

*jump*

im going down a trail on the horse with somebody. we come to a stop on a little rise where i can see really far into the distance. the vista in front of us is a 3D representation of part of my map. i start explaining to the other person about the dreamscape mapping that ive been doing and how its progressing. off to the left i can see some mountains that ive been to quite a few times before and im explaining some of the different dreams ive had there to the other person. at one point im tell them about one spot at the top where i love to just sit still and take in the view.

Meeting a stranger (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

my dream took place in a dreamscape ive been in a few times in the past. its kind of like a military building but most of the people there arent in the military. kinda hard to explain but since the last time i was there a few new things, like a little cafeteria/bar, have been added. i woke up a few times last night but each time i fell back asleep id go back to the same place. the last time went back in it was towards the end of the work? day there.


meeting a stranger

i walk through the lobby as a beautiful blonde woman and an older woman(she felt like a mentor/motherly figure to the blonde) with shoulder length dark and curly hair are walking in. as i pass them the blonde and i smile at each other and the other lady handed me a flier that talked about an upcoming conference of the Red Bear Clan. the chief was supposed to talk about how his people could move forward in and better their lives.

i walk outside and go sit on a tailgate of a red? truck and read the flier over. i see the blonde outside and i see her walk up to the other lady and say something. she walks over and sits on the tailgate next to me. we start talking and she tells me about either growing up in portland and living in san diego or vice versa. i say "san diego? are you in the navy then?" she tells me no and asks me why id ask something like that. we both answer together with something like "it would explain why you cuss like a sailor."

we laugh and then i tell her about how i used to be in the air force and that i moved to portland after i did my four years. she has me write down something in pencil. (a phone number maybe?) i write seven numbers. the top 3 were 602. below that i wrote the last 4 but the first 3 of those 4 were too light to read. the last number was either a 1 or a 7.


EOD
i woke up with the feeling that i could find her on myspace so when i got a moment, i searched her out. i typed out san diego/portland in the search and there she was. i sent her an email telling her about the dream to see if she remembers anything close to it. i dont know if shes into dreams or not so i figure a random message on myspace from a stranger talking about sharing a dream with her will freak her out. ah well, i had to ask.

Kill Bill vol. Sam (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

im in a house and people are trying to kill me. ive got a long, black handled/scabbard, katana im wielding. i go in to different rooms of this house and different people come in to attack me. i kill quite a few of them. the wounds i leave in people are startling free of blood. just open wounds like they were zombies or something.

at one point i go into the bathroom to take a leak. i hear a commotion outside of the door and i look out and see a couple, two asian people, outside. i think, great i need to pee and these guys are going to try and kill be. i go use the bathroom with my sword still in my hand all the while hoping i dont lop my manhood off in the process. its a delicate procedure.

i finish with answering my call of nature and then i head out of the bathroom door to answer my call to arms. dream starts fading away as a raging battle ensues.... EOD

Into the mind of a child (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID


im in a concert hall down in the pit. im disembodied, floating over all of the different instrument sections. the trumbone section isnt all that big and there are alot of seats next to that section that are empty.

*jump*


im sitting at a table with some other people i dont recognize. im looking at a little boy with dark hair. his eyes are closed and hes bobbing his head and scrunching his eyes in time to music only he can hear. im watching him compose some music. as i sit there watching him im thinking that this is what it must have been like to be around beethoven or mozart. my eyes are drawn to his pencil and im wondering what hes composing.

*jump*


im back in the pit, and now i seem like an extension of his will. for a moment im in 2 places at once: watching him write on the paper, and being in his thoughts. as he writes on the paper, im writing on different instruments in the pit. all of the seats that were empty next to the trombone section are now filled. i go around writing on different instruments.

Fast forwarding the sky (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID





im walking through my old neighborhood at night looking up at the sky. the moon is huge and has red poch marks all over it. it kinda looked like all of the darker areas of the moon were red but the lighter ones were still the same color as a normal moon. i commented in the dream that it kind of reminded me of jupiter.

all of a sudden the moon starts moving rapidly through the sky all the while going through months and months of moon phases. new moon to full and back again numerous times in the span of only 15 or so seconds. a few eclipses are even thrown in there for good measure. EOD

Rescued by a couple of Greys (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

rescued by a couple greys

i was outside in my grandmas side yard looking at some clouds on the horizon. a sense of this cant really be happening comes over me as i watch a large, dark, soot and ash filled, cloud come crashing down from the sky. i see it land amongst some trees and on top of houses and i have the thought, wow, the end of the world must be here.

i run into the house and start shutting all of the windows. its started to rain and tons of dust and smoke are starting to get into the house. i get all of the windows in the living room closed and then i go into the first bedroom down the hallway and do the same thing. these windows are facing the direction the ash clouds were rolling in from so i can see all of the soot and ash fill the air and the really strong air currents swirling it all around. im franticaly closing the windows and im starting to choke a bit on the dust that has creeped in the house.

i get both windows closed in that room so i start going to the next bedroom. as i come out of the door i make a right and i hear what sounds like children talking in a language i dont understand. i can see little shadows in the hallway that are coming from one of the back bedrooms. i get a bit scared thinking theyve finally come to take me away.

i walk back into the room i was just in and kneel facing the door. a calm spreads over me as i realize i dont have anything to fear and theyre here to rescue me. a few seconds later two grey aliens come into the doorway. i wave to them with a huge smile on my face as they come into view. one of them motions for me to follow them. i get up and walk after them towards the back bedroom. one of them slows down and i stop to scoop it up and then continue on my way towards the bedroom with a grey in my arms. the dream fades to black before i reach the room with the thought that i wouldve liked to have seen where theyre taking me. EOD

Went to bed extremely exhausted. Still remembered to think about my mantra and lucidity. Fell asleep within minutes. It was actually a good night for dream recall, I remembered two dreams tonight! an interesting first.

My first dream (that I recall) I was in a store again. I was walking around noticing my surroundings, when two men entered the store claiming they were there to rob it. I hid in the air ducts with someone I can't remember. I remember one of the men entered the vent, and I slammed his head against the vent repeatedly and severely broke his neck. despite this, he still managed to get back up. I don't remember the interactions with him, but I remember he ended up pouring a glass of water on me. After this encounter I went back out into the store, and to my suprize Ned Flanders was there. He was having a deep troubling problem that 'he couldn't connect with today's youth anymore'. I remember looking at the wall to the left of me, and there was almost like a scoreboard that showed 4 names -- each one said "PASTOR" beside it. I looked back at Ned and he exclaimed he would become part of a "Pride".. I looked back at the scoreboard and it had changed, only for his name though. My dream then cut to a scene of an alleyway with a bunch of rough looking people. I heard a voice over that informed me a Pride usually entailed drugs and the sex trade for 'celebrity twins'. My dream cut back to the store. I don't remember much afterward except there was one man walking around who couldn't find anything he wanted.

My second dream I was at my old childhood house, in my backyard swimming with my friend who lived across the street at the time. For some reason, the backyard contained the pool that my old house originally had, and the pool from my current house. I remember the floor of one of the pools was fairly green and gross and not many people were swimming in it. However it had a slide (that it did not in the waking word), so people were using it occasionally. I asked my dad how to clean the pool, and he instructed me to use 'the thing on the fence' I looked over and I said I knew that, but I didn't know how to use it. I turned back, and he simply told me he had no idea either. Eventually people (mostly my family) left the pool and gathered around my friend. He started talking about how he was "Presbyterian" (a faith I believe), and how he had a job and had "sold to over 80 people!". He went into great detail about how he was on a low budget TV show on his universities' closed circuit network. I remember seeing flashes and images of the show, and laughing at it. (I think low budget films and movies are awesome, I love cheesy stuff.) The only other thing I recall is earlier I was swimming and my niece was stuck to my back like Yoda on Luke Skywalker. It was kind of irritating.

Missed Dream Signs:

-The change in text in the store

-The fact that a fictional character was present before me

-My childhood home contained two pools.

Waking Journal for August 7th, 2010
Not much really happened. My girlfriend and I woke up around 10 to go to the mall so she could meet up with her future roommate to sign a lease. We ate some greek at the foodcourt, headed home for a few hours and then I saw Inception for a second time (it was her first). My friend asked to come over at a bizarrely late time, but I agreed anyways. After much street fighter IV, he ended up leaving around 2AM and we crashed shortly after that. I went to bed again with a positive mindset, however I was so tired I fell asleep rather rapidly.

Did RC's as much as possible yesterday and meditated in the afternoon using mantra "I will lucid dream tonight". Before sleep did relaxation, self hypnosis (that I would lucid dream tonight and wake up during each dream period and recall my dreams). Repeated short mantra "I will lucid dream tonight or very soon" and visualized seeing a dream sign and becoming lucid.

Was exhausted last night and slept very heavily and had zero recall this morning. Got up at 7:30 and fed my cats and played with them for about 20 minutes and then a WBTB. I could not fall back asleep using MILD so decided to try a WILD. I definitely went into SP and did RC's which failed so I was dreaming although very shallow. Had a few disjointed storylines going and a couple of lucid fragments of a dog on my cats condo and four black cats walking in a line in my bedroom. Next time I looked at my clock it was 10:20am. I got up. It wasn't excactly mind blowing but I think it was good practice.

So... I incubated a sex dream. I had two which I will not go into detail about.

1)
Threesome...

2)
Orgy

non-lucid-black
Lucid-Green

I went through 3 dream phases last night.

the first 2 sucked and I forgot them anyways.

the third though was awesome. I was semi-lucid. and it was fun

August 8: It started out with me and a few other martial arts masters i did not recognise, but we we're set out to go kill some crazy bearded asian dude. so we're on a long forest/beach path walking when all the sudden I decide "hey im going to act like the avatar and have some crazy powers" so I jumped really high over to a temple and land in front of a Bonsai Tree in a large light brown pot. I then proceed to blow a lot of wind out my mouth and make swishing motions with my hands to burn the tree but keep the fire down. I then walked into the temple through an entrance right of the center. I then saw the evil dude hop a table and run away. then i didnt give a crap. I walked out to what became more like a beach. It had a lot of people there the first notable person was andrew quinzio. The sky was heavly clouded by black cloulds with the ocassional lightning burst. I lifted my hands up and said "quinzio watch this" and took lightning strikes into my hand.(note: it didnt work every time). then I saw my brother and his buddy white-boy and some others headed to a building next to the temple. which had the appearance of a movie theater strangely. and once I was inside I saw Ben Columb walk out of what I thought was bathroom and the dream started to fade.

7/31/2010 -
Dream starts with me and a group of people ( nobody who I know in RL, but in the dream I knew ) standing in a room with a cathedral type ceiling inside a church or wood cabin of some sort. Suddenly, form the ceiling falls a wooden coffin, which lands upright and intact right in front of our group. We look inside this coffin and find a skeleton, which causes a girl in our group to scream in terror. Nobody else seems upset from this.
The dream then skips to a time later that day. The skeleton was forgotten about and I was in an upstairs loft of the cabin, watching pornography with the sound on. Near me was a balcony that looked over the first floor living room. I look down and see my step-dad walking around downstairs and quickly turn down the volume so he wouldn't hear. The volume turned down, but the internet would no longer connect and I gave up what I was doing...
Then my phone began to ring. Looking at the screen, I see that the caller ID identifies the caller as ' Asheville - Meet the Dog'. I am not sure if this was some sort of nickname or what, but either way I had no idea who it was. I answered and began by telling the man ( who I somehow knew was a no good, freeloading bum type ) that he must have the wrong number. He disagreed and proved he wanted to talk to me by saying that he was calling to "talk to [My name] who lived in South Carolina." He informed me that he wanted to come down to my place and live with me for awhile, because he had no where else to go. Although I felt kind of bad, I really didn't want this guy to come stay with me, so I began telling him a lie about how I had moved to Southern Georgia and that my current roommate wouldn't appreciate me having people come live with us. As I told him this I felt more and more guilty and was probably about to give up and let him stay, but I looked at my phone's screen which stated 'Call Ended'.
End of dream.
__________________________

I have a few more dreams that I've written down... the next few quite a bit longer than these first few. I'll post them asap. I also want to go over the instructions on how to Lucid dream again... I still have not had any success that I know of.
If anyone has any tips, feel free to share. I HAVE read all the guides on this site, but I seem to have a lot of trouble focusing on Lucid dreaming while going to sleep. Mind always wanders. I also have a hard time recording dreams in a journal if I wake in the middle of the night... I enjoy my sleep and the last thing I want to do is get up and write a page full of stuff down when I could be sleeping I always regret this in the morning though

So, I just became interested in Lucid dreaming and the possibilities it can bring, although I heard about it several months ago.
I've read all of the tutorials and guides on this site on tips for Lucid dreaming, dream recall, etc. I've been pretty busy of late, but when I think of it I've been trying to do reality checks, write down/recall dreams, and other things. I haven't had any success with a Lucid dream as of yet (That I know of, anyway) but I don't want to give up. I think I just have to try a bit harder and focus more intently on my goals here.

So, I've been writing down dreams I remember lately, but have been procrastinating when it comes to writing them on this site, which is supposed to be a good habit. So here it goes: I'll put all the ones I've had lately on this one post.
______________________________________________
A few weeks Ago - The dream started, from what I can remember, at my childhood house in Colchester, VT. My stepdad was telling my little brother that our land was a secret for some reason. The neighbors' houses were identical to the ones in Vermont, although the house there was actually the last house my parents bought in South Carolina. In the dream, however, the neighbors were actually the people that live adjacent to us here in SC. Now, in RL these people are quite the assholes, and this carried over into my dream as well, haha. The fence between our properties was broken and my little sister was walking over on to the neighbor's side( by the way, we'll call the neighbors the Assholes). The Asshole father yelled at my little sister for stepping on his lawn, while he himself stepped on to our side to do so. So, I yelled at him for yelling at my little sister for doing exactly what he was doing. He got back on his side and we started putting the fence together, while still arguing. The fence happened to just stick back together like puzzle pieces (It was a brown picket fence, btw). I finally talked him down and got him to understand why I was angry at his hypocrisy. He left the scene and I walked back towards my house, where I found a football, which I somehow concluded was the reason he stepped over on to my side of the lawn ( although it was really to yell at my little sis). I then told the situation to one of my current coworkers who was at my house in VT for some reason.
After this, the setting was the same, but it was some kind of apocalypse (I want to say something like zombies took over, or an atom bomb struck. Either way, the majority of the world was dead/gone) My friend Min was at my house and told me he was leaving ( I guess to escape the end of the world??). He offered me a ride with him, but I declined and said I would meet him at a church in town later. Min was replaced by a coworker from my current job ( different one than before ) to whom I showed how to siphon gas because gas stations were no longer running and we had to steal from other cars.

Next dream (Same night) - Another DIFFERENT coworker of mine was telling me how addicting World of Warcraft is. I began playing a game ( which was apparently WoW ) resembling one of those old arcade games like Space Invaders.

I was a 2D ship shooting shooting colorful, wiggly lines. The next level was like the old Sega game Toejam and Earl. There was a giant blob monster that was moving from island to island, and I had to shoot it ( I was back in the 2D ship at this point).

That concludes that night's set of dreams

August 8, 2010

Darren's car
My dad and I were in a shop. I could see through a glass wall into the next door shop. I saw Darren there, sitting at a table. I recall my dad was sitting across from me (against the glass), and he was saying something to me, but I kept getting distracted, looking over at Darren, and just saying things like, "Oh yeah?" really distractedly to him

We all left at the same time (including Darren). My dad and I were coming down the right of way lane, and he mashed the breaks because Darren nearly cut us off. My dad comments, "Just cos he's rich, doesn't mean he owns the road!" And my dad keeps inching along, trying to force Darren's car back... but Darren isn't giving up either!

Me, I'm just worried about the paint job on both cars. Our two cars were an inch away from scraping each other. I stuck my hand out in between the cars so they wouldn't scrape. I gave Darren a reproachful look, and he smiled at me

Later on, I found his fan page on facebook. I dashed off a quick message saying, something like, "Hey, I'm the girl from the car, earlier."

Darren contacted me. "Thanks for worrying about the paint job, but you really shouldn't have used your hand... you could have crushed it, and then I'd have been really upset!"

Danny Fragment, 1
Danny (my DG) and I were sitting on the porch of his house in my inner world. It was sunset and we had our guitars out with us. "I wish you would practice the guitar more, in waking life," Danny said.

Danny Fragment, 2
Danny, Darren and I were in this volcano-like cave. There were explosions and lava happening around us, and we were trying to get out. Darren was the one holding my hand.

It started in my kindergarden - 5th grade gymnasium. I don't know how teams were chosen but they were, anyway I got my lacrosse stick and joined a team.
The ball went back and forth, I was doing quite well though no one scored.
Music came on, it repeated "Hey, Hey, Hey" in a metal fashion with a distorted guitar for the game. I didnt notice till the end.
The ball went out a few times, I feel like the court was bigger when I was playing, whatever. I ran over, the ball went out when I threw it. I apparently wasnt a big passer. Anyway, I got the ball, tried to cradle and it fell out, some bitch yelled at me that it was the other teams. I still took it out. I took it to the other side, passed it, it fell. I sprinted towards it and a whistle blew. We switched nets and sides.
I dont have a lot of time left to write.
I tried to score, 5 times. All at the same time. Goalie kept blocking, fucking goalie.
I heard the music getting louder. I felt a breeze on my face.
I woke up.

----------------------------------------
Fixing on the last part, my training isnt for another 4 hours.

I cradled the balla bout 5 feet from the net. Shot, it hit the bar and bounced, I grabbed it again and shot, goalie stopped it, third and fourth time he stopped it, i was cursing that i couldnt make it. 5th time, he got it and threw it to the other side.
While this game was going on, naomi (for those who don't know, naomi is my guide wolf. ever since my first LD when I saw myself with wings, I've had her by my side every time) was watching.

To describe naomi, shes a big wolf. Black hair with white streaks, she sort of looks like a dosile version of Mightyena from Pokemon Emerald.
Yes I just compared a DC to pokemon emerald.
She has stunning sea-grey eyes, the same that I do. And if i was her to become larger she can, however asking her to shrink only results in a growl which means (I cant do that).

She's also my weakness in dreams. I fought an army of the devil's angels to protect Ayla (again, my celebrity crush. yes its semi-lame, but it does help with some amazing stories). I let the plot develop and I heard a yelp, I looked over to see Naomi dieing. I cut the dream and went into a black space with medical equipment, wanting to revive naomi. Keep in mind I was lucid still, but I have a emotional attachment to her. When her heartrate stopped, I woke up, not wanting to be in that dream anymore.
However, she can be killed, but not for good. She'll revive next time I dream. Killing her also can result in me getting extremely pissed. Which is bad.

anyway, till tommorow
