    Non-Lucid Dreams

    1. #1 - All the little horses

      by , 07-29-2010 at 11:08 PM (East of East St. Louis)
      This took a few days to write up. I can't remember if I became lucid at a point, although I might have become semi-lucid.

      ---

      I'm in a courtroom, although I'm not part of the jury or part of the trial. I think I know people involved, but I'm not going to be called up or anything. I look around the courtroom and everything seems normal. I notice characters from a friend's comic-in-progress and I don't think this is out of the ordinary at all.

      It's some kind of custody battle, and I can't remember a lot of the trial. At some point, the judge called a recess and I headed to the bathroom. I was in a stall and I heard two girls talking, and when I was in there they left soon and a man and a woman came in with a little girl. The girl kept making flowers and vines appear. The parents noticed this eventually and told her to stop. At this point I came out of the stall and the girl made a rose appear on the corner of the sink. I remarked "She's clever, by making pretty things she makes it harder for people to tell her to remove them." The parents gave me a look, and then left. I finished washing my hands and left.

      The outside place is no longer the courthouse. It looks like the inside of a haunted house - the walls are painted somewhere between camo and jungle. I start walking, but I stop after a few steps. There are bumpercars of a sort running through the hallway and I break into a run to get past them. Then I see carosel horses in front of me and I notice there is blood on their muzzels. They look mad. I decide to not get near them, because I don't want to find out why they have blood on their faces.

      I get past them but I feel a tug on my pantleg - I run past just in time and I see people in a train waving their arms around. They tell me to come over to them, but I feel like this isn't a good move. It seems wrong. Before I can make a choice on whether to run or not, I wake up.

    2. Nightmare, cat mutaliations. (Do not read if you are squeamish)

      by , 07-29-2010 at 10:47 PM (Purple Trees and Zombies: Trippy Dreams of an Artist/Writer)
      This is copy pasted from my LJ. An older dream, but one very vivid, and a bit gruesome at the end. As I say in my title, do not read if you are squeamish about animals getting hurt.

      Dream #1:

      I'm driving to work and see bunnies on the side of the road. It's day time, and I think it's summer. There's a ton of them laying there and hopping around. I stop and get out. They aren't afraid of me. I go over and sit in the center of them. They are white, with brown ears. I pick up a baby bunny. I pet it and set it down, then I pick up a smaller one and pet that one. I see a big yellow hump in between the bunnies. I squint my eyes at it and it rises and rushes me. I stop it from hitting my chest with my free hand and it bounces back and disappears. It was a baby toy chicken; I remember the black dot eyes and the orange bill.

      Dream #2

      Later, I'm walking down a road in a trailer park. It isn't my park, but another I don't recognize. It's midday and summer. For some reason, I want to find a kitten. A couple strolls by. I can't remember the man, but the woman is older. The woman is holding two tiny puppies, both are white and fluffy, but I don't want to pet them. The woman holds them out to me, but I walk away. The next street over, I find a white cat a little girl is holding. She won't let me touch it.

      Dream #3

      I'm at work and some things happen that I can't remember, but I take a break and go to the bathroom. I change into my Subway shirt and pajama bottoms. Two girls enter and talk about something, but I ignore them. They leave. A man then enters and I think nothing of it. I discover I'm on my period. I walk out and wash my hands. The man is watching me. He's Asian. I wash my hands; there's blood on them. The man says nothing.

      I leave the bathroom and go outside. It's dark, early morning. A cop is parked near Panera Bread, but he's just sitting there. I have my notebooks with me. They are blue. I go to the grocery store, Hiller's Market (it's a part of the same mall Panera is). A man joins me. He has blond hair and is also carrying notebooks. His are blue as well. We enter and the man says he's going to get us a good seat. I nod and follow. The store is set up backwards. There is a high school there for a write in and I think I can work on my NaNoWriMo novel finally. The students have long tables in the produce section. The tables are covered in newspaper. The students notebooks and the chairs are red. For some reason, this makes me realize they aren't writing for NaNo, but they're there for another reason. I feel sneaky now, and wonder if I'll be caught.

      Man comes back and says he found us a seat. I go with him and set my notebook on the table. The students ignore us. I'm hungry. I say I want to get something to eat. Man says okay, I'll wait here. I leave and get caramel apple hard candies, fruity hard candies, and a few items I can't remember. I want a drink. I go to the deli counter because they have drinks there. They have a meat case, but the back is set up like a Star Bucks. The tones are gold and brown. There are gifts on shelves. I decide the drink would be too expensive. I never pay for my food.

      I meet the man again in the aisle. He is worried because he thinks we're not supposed to be here. He makes me worried too. Then I see Hugo from LOST, a younger version. He looks angry and runs off. I know he's telling on us. I say to my friend that we should go. He agrees. Then an announcement breaks over the PA and I know it's Hugo again. He says some things I can't remember, but at the end he curses us with a 'were' curse. Instead of wolves we'll turn into lizards. We leave and my companion runs away. I start walking back to Panera, worried and thinking I need help. Two girls come by and tell me that I hurt her, and it's what I deserve. I have no idea what they are talking about.

      Dream #4

      I'm driving around an apartment complex. It's fancy, and I can't find a parking spot. The sky is overcast and it's daytime. Many spots are open but I don't want them. I finally park on the lawn. Two black men in suits are watching and talking among themselves. They say nothing to me.

      I go into the complex and to the second floor. There were no stairs. I see a registry in the center of a big room, and a door beyond it. The registry is wooden, and the place to sign your name flips up instead of to the side. The registry's full of black and white vintage photos of women. There's many of one girl in a bikini, different poses. I think she's pretty, but I know she's dead. I take a picture out and I hear a click. The door is open, but I can't find it now. A women enters. She is dressed in a lab coat. She says right this way. I follow her and I'm dressed in a maroon salon gown with white trim. I try to button it in the back, but I could only find one snap. I'm naked underneath.

      In the lobby, there are two doctors dressed in blue surgery scrubs. They are talking to each other. The woman says to take off all your jewelry. I take off several gold rings, one gold necklace, and gold earrings. The men watch and joke that the boss is "cracking down".

      The woman wants to take blood, and I follow her to a desk with a weird machine on it. The machine looks like the face of a ounce scale without the gray knob in the middle (I use them at Panera for weighing meat). She says to stay standing as she pokes my finger. I watch as she takes a drop and sets it where the gray knob should be. The dial spins. She seems annoyed with the results, and she wants to take more blood. She says to sit down this time, so I do. She jabs my thumb twice and ends up with too much blood. This time, she seems satisfied. My finger never touches the machine.

      Then she says that I have to see the grindroom before I can treated. (I think this stems from the last dream about the curse). I say okay, but get a weird feeling. She leads me down a long hall to a room full of bunnies and cats in glass cages. The woman leaves. I think the animals are cute, but I hear a awful grinding sound. There is another woman in an apron; she has cats on the metal table in front of her. The cats are all different colors, but the one that stands out the most is an orange tabby. The woman has a bloody saw in her hand and the cats are squirming. I see a huge pit next to her with whirling blades. The blades are all bloody. I start to cry because I know what she's doing, but I never stop her. Nor do the cats try to fight back. There is no sound at this point. None. She starts cutting them up and throwing them into the pit. I cover my face and run from the room, sobbing. I remember thinking that this was a test, and I didn't know if I had failed or not.

      I woke up then, and yeah, I was bawling. After I calmed down, I laid there and recollected. Then I got up and wrote it all down. Still a little shaky from the last bit and every time I think about it I want to cry again.

    3. Haunted Mansion

      by , 07-29-2010 at 07:50 PM
      Woke up twice not membering any dream but when i finaly fell asleep i had a long vivid dream about the disney haunted mansion ridde. The ride in my dream was much different that the one in real life. To enter the cart you had to to do a back pedal for about ten feet trying to catch up to the cart. Then you had to dive into the kart with a stranger. I went on the ride two time. The first time the ride sped very fast into a hallway where i heard lot of deep dark voices and as the voices got deeper the light became darker. When i got into the next room everything was brighter and neon. I remember seeing bright dolphins that were trying to scare people. When i was entering the next rooom a mummy poped out of a coffin causing me to fall out of the kart. I feel down for five minutes and i landed in the next room with tons of people doing various activites. I saw a friend and asked him what he was doing. He said that he was getting a tatoo and I decided to get one to. It wasnt a standard tatoo, it was a green machine that you put a sticker in and you put a body part under it so it could burn that on your skin. I did this twice. one on my left wrist. Came out poorly. And then on my face, of two and a half stars. After getting that tatoo it teleported back to the entrance. i repeated the previous activites but couldnt get the tatoo again.

      From the theme park, to the mafia building and home. (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Tonight I recalled five dreams. A very long non lucid dream recorded. Some of the dreams had a lot of evidence to become lucid and a lot about the topic, but this is the fourth day without lucids! So tonight it will be a must lucid!

      Fifth:

      I was going to a theme park with my wife. I think it was the Port Aventura theme park.







      We enterted and we paid a female employee working behind a booth. I had to evaluate the service of the park, its cleanness and how fun it was. I was getting paid for this. I rode a few attractions and walking around for a bit. My wife advised me that we had to evaluate the second entrance booth employee. We had to get out and pay again for another ticket. I did not feel like having to exit the park, waiting the entire line and entering again.
      We exited through a back door. No one was around. We saw there was a huge line to enter the park so we joined the line. However, the line started to move fast. We got next to the entrance. I told my wife, "See, is not that bad!" My wife complained that we still needed to wait and I told her, "Well, it's very touristic place!"

      I was next to the booth and I was going to pay. The female employee said, "Two entrances?" I was about to say yes when my wife said, "Four!" I said, "No, two entrances." My wife repeated she wanted to pay four entrances. I stared at her trying to remind her we were evaluating the place and we could not pay more than two entrances. My wife told me she did not want to be cheap. I wondered what was going on until I saw two female DCs. They were made up but old friends of my wife. I told her it was not looking cheap, but we were not allowed to purchase more than two entrances or the project would be rejected.
      My wife started to talk with her two female friends leaving me on the back. As I was not interested on their chit chat, I was thinking on my own business. I found a platinum coin and place it into my pocket.

      I saw a building and entered it. Inside it was like a house with multiple stories. There stairs were very tight, but the only way to reach the higher stories. I remember walking around the entire building. It had a big indoors parking as well. I met with a friend and he also found a platinum coin, but it was shaped more like a pyramid and it had small squares attached to it.







      Inside this building there was like a mafia. There were some armed guys that wanted to rob all these coins. I was worried if they would find out I owned one and they would kill me to get it. They spotted my friend with it and they followed him. I went into a room were I saw two DC. I shared with them the issue I had with the coin and she advised me to disguise. She suggested me to become a gal so they would loose track of me. I though it was a good idea.

      I just asked them if I could not live there in the building. I loved the apartment I was while talking with them. It was huge with a lot of furniture, big windows and much more. I said I wanted a front door to keep the people from the stairs out of my apartment. They told me it was fine to place the door in there.
      I disguised myself like a woman and talking with a guy about renting the place. He told me the building had a pool bar, a beauty salon and a spa. He offered me to go to fix my hair, put some make up on and do my nails. I realized I was not dressed like a woman yet. I looked at my chest and realized I wore no shirt, so they would know I was a guy.

      I started to look for some female clothes, but I only found skirts. The skirts were semi transparent, I found some colors such as yellow and blue. I realized I needed something not transparent, I was only on my shorts so it was easy to spot I was not indeed a girl. I walked some stairs without luck. I could not find a thing. I realized that I could go to my apartment and put some of my wife's clothes on. As I was leaving, I saw Arlette, a co-worker from the Pata Negra store. She said, "So. When are you finally going to fix my computer? Let me know!" I though she spotted me, however, I realized she was over the phone. I looked at my phone but I had no voice mail, so I found out she was looking for another computer guy. I felt bad and unsuccessful. As I was walking to my home thinking about what I just witnessed, I saw some Chinese guys acting around some tables. A lot of people was watching their show.

      These Chinese people had like wooden figures with different shapes. These figures had several iron tubes attached to them. The actors were hitting this figures with iron sticks. They were trying to balance the figures in the air. I could hear the iron sticks clashing with the wooden figures. No figure fell to the ground. People appeared to be enjoying the show.

      I wanted to pick up my brother at a indoors pool where he was getting skilled.







      I wanted to give my brother a few bucks and I also wanted to tip the body guard. As I approached the pool I saw the body guard jumping back into the pool. I called him and he replied, "No. no!" However, he got out from the pool. I tipped him and he was very happy about it. I gave the cash to my brother and left the pool.

      In the corner of the pool, there was standing a very hot female body guard. She wore a sexy black swimsuit. She pointed out to another woman, probably just a customer, and mentioned that the customer was hotter than her. I did not agreed. I was about to leave the pool and the hot body guard told me she sent me something to my e-mail and I needed to check it out.

      I arrived to my place. It was way different from waking. I saw the computer and saw the e-mail. I saw something like the Devil, but he was in goat form, he was not red and he was like lying down, most of it was like a skeleton. I could read a comment that said, "His body is really harmonic" I was uncomfortable about the image, however, I also spotted the topic of the pic. It said, "The body of the Dark Saint of Ice and Fire." I closed it up and erased the e-mail. I totally did not like it.

      I saw a website that triggered holograms from my computer screen. I saw the seven symbols of the chakras and it read, "The Chakra system." The symbols were spinning at a slow pace and the overall image was moving as well. Next to this image, I saw the words "Astral Projection" and "Spiritual Travel." I saw also the moon and it read something that I cannot recall. After this, I woke up.

      Missed Dream Signs:
      - Port Aventura (thousand miles from home)
      - Finding a platinum coin.
      - The stairs were tiny.
      - The show from the Chinese guys.
      - The holograms.

      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Probably follow the dream drama from a lucid perspective.

    5. Another night, another missed dream sign...7/29/10

      by , 07-29-2010 at 06:45 PM
      I had three dreams that I can remember, but one of them just barely.

      The first dream I was chasing ghost-like wispy apparitions around my basement. I think this might have to do with my (possible, I'm not completely sure) experience with sleep paralysis, where I felt like there were ghost like apparitions in my room.

      The second dream involved me being on top of a hill or plateau of some sort, really high up. I was with a few other people, though the only one's identity I knew was my friend, Casey, who then proceeded to accidentally break the "O" off of a 3 feet by 4 feet Ohio State sign. I have a general feeling, even though I don't remember doing this in the dream, that we attacked these cities that were in the landscape around the plateau. The cities were sort of like the cities from spore.

      My last, and most vivid, dream involved me and a group of maybe 3, at most, other people walked into someone's open garage in a place that resembled my uncle's neighborhood. We were looking around when a kid I knew from grade school (a douchebag) ran in, stole a sort of vacuum cleaner on wheels and proceeded to ride it down the slope near the driveway to the house we were at. We stopped him and brought the vacuum cleaner back along with the other kid. The owner of the house saw the whole thing, and gave us a wad of cash for it, but left because she seemed in a hurry. As we tried to count the money and divide it equally among ourselves in this garage, a bunch of other douchebags from my school started making fun of us and tried to take the money. The dream ended before I could get a punch in

      A common theme that I'm starting to see is being around people, but not completely knowing who. Possible DS? And I should have been able to realize that, since I was counting the money at a near second-grade level, I was dreaming. Though, my dream covered up for it by adding the doucebags distracting me as a logical reason as to why I couldn't count the money.

    6. Going to Mexico

      Going to Mexico (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Tonight I recalled five dreams. A very long non lucid dream recorded. Some of the dreams had a lot of evidence to become lucid and a lot about the topic, but this is the fourth day without lucids! So tonight it will be a must lucid!

      Fourth:

      I was going to cross the border to go to Mexico. I was walking and not driving. I was inside the border building waiting in line. The employees were very friendly.

      It was my turn and I entered to the room of the right. The room was not very lit. A female employee greeted me and checked my ID (and not my passport) She realized that I was in vacation. For some reason she was happy to see both my wife and I going to Mexico.

      She pulled a map and showed me a road that would go by the border, but on the Mexico side. She told me if I followed the road all the way east I would reach her hometown village. She told me it was a very nice typical Mexican place.

      Missed dream signs:
      - Not needed my ID.

      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Head for the ToTM.

      Odd but not boring dream job. (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Tonight I recalled five dreams. A very long non lucid dream recorded. Some of the dreams had a lot of evidence to become lucid and a lot about the topic, but this is the fourth day without lucids! So tonight it will be a must lucid!

      Third:

      I had to go to the Temecula Olive Oil store (not the one where I work) The scenery changed and I was in front of the store. The store was very different from waking. I saw a female employee with black long hair. We started to talk and I approached her. Somehow I knew that I was OK doing it. I started to kiss her and we made out. We were behind a register and the store was empty, we were about to open. As we were making out she told me that if other employee spotted us everybody will notice. Another employee, a female, about 50s years old with gray hair came in and greeted us. She did not spot us. I said hi. The DC that I was making out with hidden inside a strawberry ice-cream. As the other employee left, I knocked inside the ice-cream to invite her to come out.

      We were now behind an odd tasting bar. The counter was like seven feet tall so I could not see the customer's face nor he or she could see us. I was wondering how to provide good service without even being able to see the customer. We had a few weird Olive Oils for sale and also, an ice-cream dispenser made with Olive Oil.

      A customer approached the counter and requested a bottle of Gethsemene Olive Oil
      (such bottle do exist in waking) I asked her if she needed to taste it first, but she said she just wanted to buy two bottles. I turned to grab a bottle, but I found none. I asked one employee were I could get the bottles for the customers. He told me I could find them behind the window. I saw a window display with bottles, but there were no bottle to give to the customers. I ran to another room of the store. It was as big as a reception of a high end hotel. I went to another room that had red carpeting and it was not very lit. I hopped to find here the bottles for the customer. I was worried because she was waiting too much. I called my wife and told her how weird the Temecula store was. She told me she saw the bottles in a different place.
      I ran to the first room were I was initially. I had to walk through a very busy kitchen. I saw some employees coming out with a big white tablecloth. I was surprised and I could not understand what was going on.







      I found out that they were getting ready for a big wedding. The entrance was restricted to all people, however, I saw my boss from the Pata Negra store around and he granted my entrance. I went back behind the bar. It was so tall that I could do stuff without being spotted. I saw a computer screen and a keyboard. I was browsing the DV site while working behind the bar. I was happy that finally I could have some kind of entertainment at the Olive Oil store like I do at the Pata Negra store.

      Missed dream Signs:
      - The odd store.
      - Making out with someone that was not my wife.
      - A female DC hiding inside an ice-cream.
      - The height of the counter.
      - The odd Olive Oils.
      - A kitchen in between of the store.
      - There was a male co-worker. In waking, I am the only male.

      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Head for a ToTM.

    9. Wayne on the brain?

      by , 07-29-2010 at 05:57 PM
      1. The whole town is full of busloads of secret agents who are looking for something. So in order to stay out of their way, I decide to spend the day at a children's museum. In various places throughout the museum, there are little displays, all playing a story about a girl at a dance recital who is trying to impress Bruce Wayne. I go to the museum's theater to see what's playing. Nothing interesting is on the list, but I get a ticket anyway. There's a concession stand outside, right next to a "no food or drink inside the theater" sign.

      At some point, the scene changes. I'm going up a set of stairs, and by knocking on secret panels, I find myself at a performance hall, where a dance recital is just wrapping up. I ask somebody where I can find a Mr. Wayne, and I'm led right to him. And then we go out for pizza for some reason.

      2. I'm baking a pizza at the house of my former baby-sitter. It's half-meatball, half-maple bacon. She eats the whole darn thing. I go outside and sit on a curb, and somehow find myself complaining about my stolen dinner to Bruce Wayne. So he has Alfred make me some sort of tomato-based pasta soup thing.

      3. In some sort of weird alternate universe where Bruce's parents survive, but he doesn't, I end up living with them. There's also something about eggs made of a bunch of different colors of quartz.

      4. I'm angry at one of my former classmates for trying to read some stories I've written, so I turn into a great big blue fox-demon and scare her off.

      5. One of my aunts gets my Legos mixed up with my cousins' Legos, and can't sort them out again.

      6. Batman breathes rainbows when he performs CPR.

      7. Something about my brother having to hotwire a really tiny car, the whole sky being like a Lite-Brite, and being attacked by a great big blue lizard-monster with a mane of spikes.


      Jeez, just how many times did I dream about running into the Waynes? I swear, there were even repeats of the dance recital scenario. However, in retrospect, I must admit Rainbow Breath Batman is hilarious.

      1- Laser Razor
      I am in school and it's about time to leave. I haven't shaved in a while, and I'm petting my face to feel my scruff. I'm walking down the stairs with Jessica, talking about DV or something, and I realize that I'm completely clean shaven. "What the heck?? I just lost all the hair on my face! I was literally just touching my face and I had a lot of stubble." Jessica just looked at my weird and didn't seem to understand how strange it was. After much freaking out and trying to figure out what happened to my facial hair, Joey comes over and wants to talk to me alone. "I did it. I have this laser razor and I built a fort outside the school so that I could shave your face from a distance. I didn't know how else to talk to you." I'm really mad at him. Why the hell would he do that?

      2- False Awakening
      It is morning and my mom is pounding on my door. "I have laundry for you! I'm just going to leave it outside your door. It's time to get up!"
      I am awakened IRL by the sound of my mother calling me from downstairs.

    11. Elevator of Destiny, Germany Host Family

      by , 07-29-2010 at 05:29 PM (Hopeless Wanderings)
      regular dreams: 7-29-10

      Elevator of Destiny

      I was at school talking to some kid in the hallway. The countdown clocks were counting down fast, and my class was at the other end of the school and downstairs. I followed the kid hurriedly down the stairs and hallway until we reached this elevator. The clock still showed like 1min and 38sec, but I knew the elevator would take some time. There was some teacher guy standing by the elevator and he said something like “This elevator will take you to your destiny.” I got in the elevator and was worried that it would break down or something. Part of me knew this was a dream because I thought “If I keep on thinking that the elevator will break down, then it will.” I don’t remember what happened after that.



      Germany Host Family

      I was going to Germany for a week to live with a host family. I was going with other German students/teachers(who I never actually saw in the dream) who didn’t have enough students to go with them so they asked some Spanish students to come so I joined in.

      I don’t remember the plane ride or arriving there. The first thing I remember was greeting everyone in their house. The girl who was going to be my friend/guide person in the house was Bethany(or Becca.. or Sasha.. or something). She was the same age as me. She lived with her mom, her dad, her older brother, and like 2 other sisters in a small house. I was kind of nervous to meet all of them at first, but when Bethany and I met we started talking and didn’t stop for what seemed like an hour. She was really easy to talk to, and we had a lot in common. One thing we had in common was photography. I told her I had a crappy camera and asked her what kind she had. I think she had some fancy camera and said she would show it to me later.

      After awhile of talking, she took me upstairs to her room. Her room was about half the size of mine with a slanted ceiling. There was a bed in a corner that had velvet bedsheets and big white shelves with pictures on it on the opposite side. Everything was written in English, and I asked her why. She said that she spoke English pretty well and would write pretty much everything in it. At one time she was even doing her homework in English. We talked some more and then got tired and both of us fell asleep for like 5 minutes on her bed. I didn’t want to take a nap so I prevented myself from sleeping any longer and she woke up also and we went back downstairs.

      She showed me the outside of her house, which was a neighborhood with small colorful houses. I really wanted to walk around the block and explore but instead we went back in the house. Her sister had out her camera that looked kind of like mine and insisted that we take a picture. I stood next to two of her sisters and one of them hugged me while her brother took a picture. It was kind of awkward but I went along with it.

      Next thing I know, the whole family is going shopping. We went to this supermarket which was about the same size as grocery stores here. Bethany was walking really slowly while her mom and sister were walking really fast. I tried to keep up with them but then I lost sight of Bethany and got stuck with this black lady with an animal printed bandana. Her mom turned around and saw me rushing to keep up with them. I just didn’t want to lose that family in a store in Germany. She said something like “If you are going to freak out like that, I’m going to have to put this needle in your toe.” I have no idea what the point of that was, but the next thing I knew she was talking off my shoes and she put a small needle underneath one of my toenails. It actually didn’t hurt that much, but it started bleeding a lot. She went up to one of the cash registers and I tried to follow her but was kind of limping and couldn’t walk that fast.

      When we got home, they unpacked there food and I felt bad about not helping them but I didn’t know where anything went. They made dinner, which was like salad and something else… I liked the food though. When I was done I put my fork and knive in the open fridge with all the other utensils(I don’t know why they put them there). They talked about the meal plan for the next few days, which actually sounded really good to me. It was like American food.

      Then, Bethany’s brother and sisters wanted to take me to his brother’s room. I looked for Bethany but found her in her room with a sick bucket by her bed. She had some kind of flu. So I left her and followed her brother and sisters down some secret passageway. It look like 5 minutes of going through maze-like small hallways to reach his room. It was really cool though. The ceiling was low but the room was really wide. I thought it would be weird there without Bethany but it was actually kind of fun. They wanted to take me somewhere, I forgot where.. to like do something bad.. or put on a show or something in the neighborhood.. I agreed to it. They took me up this steep path but I couldn’t seem to get up a hill. I tried multiple times but just couldn’t make it. I don’t think I ever made it up that hill.

      I remember going back to Bethany’s bedroom. It was now like the 3rd day. She was still sick, and I was sad that I didn’t get to spend any more time with her. I wondered when and if we were ever going to go to her school, which I was kind of excited/nervous about. At one point, my mom even came to visit. I felt kind of bad because I left without really telling anyone so I was worried that she would think I was missing. But there she was, sitting on the couch in the host family’s house.
      I don’t remember anything else.

      During this dream, part of me recognized that I was dreaming but I really didn’t want to wake up because I was having fun and I wished that I could stay there until the week ended.

    12. Aquinas (Night of Wed, July 29th)

      by , 07-29-2010 at 05:16 PM
      I am in a small, dark body of water, possibly a pond. My dad is with me and drops a 3 foot alligator to the bottom of the water. His intention is to feed it to a lion. I turn around and see the lion, who jumps into the water and eats the alligator. In the same body of water, a man is trying to catch a huge snake, possibly an anaconda, with another huge snake.

      I am at a baseball game, watching my older brother play. There is a fly ball out to him in left field. It's in foul territory, although it's played as though it were fair, and my brother throws it an enormous distance over the first base line stands, where I'm sitting.

      I'm with my mom in a small airplane that she is flying. We pass over some rocks and then are over a divided highway. I suddenly realize we are flying too close to the ground, but as soon as i begin to tell my mom that, we crash into the median of the highway. I get up from the ground, and spit, assuming a lot of blood will come out. Only a bright red drop comes out, and I begin rushing towards my mom. On the way there, I begin waving my arms at a red SUV coming towards us. The man slows down, and I tell him to call 911. I then reach my mom, who is conscious but barely, and I cannot tell how hurt she is. She can barely talk. (I wake up)

    13. the Sniper and the Moose

      by , 07-29-2010 at 04:59 PM
      So in this dream I start out in the forest with a scoped Ptrs-41 sniper rifle and some land mines. I'm out hunting and I find some moose. It takes two shots to kill one, but when I do I'm instantly sorry and I mourn for the moose. the other ones see me, and the biggest moose says to me," It's ok. You didn't know." They took me in and showed me around the forest. They said I was a different person now and that they forgave me. I thanked them and went off to explore the rest of the forest. I found a gold mine and looked around. I thought it must have belonged to some billionaire criminal guy, so I placed 2 land mines in there. I got out and saw a cliff in the distance. I went up to the cliff and saw a big viking guy up there with a business type criminal, so I was right about who owned the place. I observed them more closely with the scope on my Ptrs-41, but the viking saw me and started throwing axes at me. I dodged most of them but one hit me it the shoulder. I killed the business man with my sniper, and all the animals rejoiced. Later I was in court where the judge let me go because I killed in self defence and because I killed a guy who would have probably gotten sentenced to death if he was ever caught. That's when I woke up.

    14. Shroomies in Dreamland

      by , 07-29-2010 at 04:39 PM
      This dream starts out with me walking around in my front yard north of the house. It's slightly overcast outside. As I walk eastward, I notice a hexagonally-shaped mushroom that resembles a biscuit under a sassafras tree. [Odd, for a mushroom.] I recognize it as a psychedelic variety I think that I've seen from pictures on the Internet. I pluck the head off and go inside.

      My house looks no different from how it is normally in real life. Wrapping the head in a couple of tissues, I flop down in front of the TV and watch some market report on a "weed economy." I stand up, and Dad walks in with a set of brown mutton chops for a beard. [???] We talk for a bit, then I head off to my room, walking past Mom, who says something like "people will buy weed!" "No they won't," I reply. I stop for a second. I think to myself, "Don't we usually take different sides? Isn't Mom anti-drug, through and through?" None the wiser, I keep walking. [I could have expanded on that, and probably gone lucid. Damn.]


      I set my wrapped mushroom head down on my bedspread, tear off a corner of it, pop it into my mouth, and suck on it for a while. Nothing happens for a bit, then things start getting all wavy. [I've had these sorts of visual distortions all my life, just never this intense.] I pull out my iPod, and listen to a couple songs. The bass side of things is really faint, and everything high-pitched is accentuated. I lay down on my bed, trying to get a little bit of rest. As soon as my eyes close, though, I awake.

      [Accomplished goal: take a psychedelic in a dream.]

    15. Weird dream

      by , 07-29-2010 at 03:33 PM
      I was searching through cabinets above my computer and found an e cigarette... I took a puff and really liked it.... I took another one... but held the vapors in and walked into my sisters room and blew all the vapors out. My sister panicked and told me she was going to tell my dad that I had been smoking... but I told her it was an e cig I found in the cabinets.. I took it to my dad and asked him what it was for, and he told me my step mom had an addiction and she bought it to help her quit... He said I could have it and I proceeded to take a few more puffs.
