non-lucid

small fragments:

Me and another person are looking for a place to park. We are thinking about parking inside a giant manhole that is next to some parking spaces, but realize they are filled with trash. I hear cop sirens and begin to panic, so we park in a regular spot.

__________

We just got done watching a movie at the movie theater, and someone tells me we just watched the "Dark Knight". As everyone exits the theater, are start looking for a bottle of Old Spice Body Wash that I thought I brought into the theater with me.

I am at a friend's house. He and his fiance have both received new HTC phones, and Chief, Todd, and I are there hanging out with him (Matt). Suddenly, I am in a forest, and I am observing a strange tree that has grown new shoots and leaves. I feel as if I was once connected to the tree. The scenery shifts again - I am moved to a cash register at Giant Eagle, and I am trying to help my brother get someone through the line. I show him how to scan the barcode of each item, and I swipe the man's credit card (unsuccessfully, a few times). Once that is over, I am outside, trying to get across a bridge (on foot) while several cars attempt the same thing. The scenery is woodsy and very snowy. Three wolves dance around the bridge, challenging the cars. One of them seems to be fixated on me. I try to cross the bridge once the cars have gone, and the lone wolf is left watching me. She comes at me slowly (for a wolf) and I batter her around the nose. This seems to keep her away long enough for me to get where I want to go. As I get further away from the bridge, the wolf sits down and whines. I am overcome with the desire to pet her on the head, but my initial fear of attack keeps me away. The final change of scenery leaves me in some kind of house resembling my own, but there is a strange woman walking around, shifting through dream portals. I am wary of her; I do not know her intentions. The entire time, I am on the cusp of realizing it is a dream; however, the realization never fully dawns on me.

[my recall is like, all over the place, so I don't know how accurate everything will be, in-order wise.]

Pterodactyl
7/26/2010


Another dream where I am not really myself. First I see a classroom that only has 6 children in it and 1 teacher. Each child had a twin. They start talking about dinosaurs. Now, in first person view, I'm a pterodactyl and I'm flying very high in the air. I swoop down and start eating these buildings, that to me were very tiny, but that was because I was a large dinosaur. The buildings were a pale yellow, and seemed like they were made of legos.


Other stuff
I was in my grandmothers backyard[FL] sitting on the steps with my sister. We start smoking a joint.
In NC at a relatives house, mother is there but its not really my mother, cousin Tabitha is there but it's not really her.
Being in my old house upstairs in the little extra room. Opening up the roof all the way until the roof isn't there anymore.
At some house, swimming in the pool with my brother. Some kid is acting like a little asshole towards my brother so I say something about it. I get out of the pool and walk inside the house.

I finally remember a dream again. I was getting worried. I only remember bits and pieces though.

For some reason this dream opens up with me walking across a grass field with a group of people. One of them, the oldest, looks like my old gym teacher from high school. I don't remember what we were doing or how we got there but he seems angry about something. He acts like "Lan" from this book I am reading. He snaps at me, "We will only travel with 3 and then the cleric." And then turns and begins jogging. I start following him, obviously not the reason he's angry, before seeing a big stack of paper poked into the mud at a base of a tree. I curse under my breath and say, "They better not of left a note." I bend over to pick it up and unfold it.

Suddenly I am on a dirt path running laps with a bunch of other people. The same gym teacher is there running with us. I have the papers in my hand so I open them up and start to read. It's a letter written by my (real life) Wife. It starts with something like "I just want you to be happy." I remember, in the dream, reading the front page and starting to cry. As if the letter is directed at me or I miss her horribly, or something. I keep running the laps and I remember realizing that I probably look bad to other people but my dream self doesn't care. I remember running by a knot of girls slowly running the laps and then running by my gym teachers (real life) son. We're all dressed up like we used to be in gym class. For whatever reason now the gym teacher is standing at a computer, an old looking one, and he has two windows on it and is showing a picture and some text to an older woman who was running laps. At some point he also notices the papers I'm carrying and somehow gets a hold of them and puts them in a folder.

I come into my dream and it's as if I am watching it happen on television. Everything looks and feels like a teen movie. This blond haired guy with crystal blue eyes is sitting in a car in a driveway in the passenger seat of a car. In the drivers seat is a young Jennifer Love Hewitt. There is some sort of monologue going on because I keep flashing from the image of them in the car talking back to a group of people talking in a room. Finally the girls dad walks up to a gate right by the driveway and crosses his arms and leans against it. He looks at the guy in the car and says something. I can't remember what, exactly. The guy in the car sighs and looks at the girl. He says: "Do you have a lock on this thing?" She shakes her head. So the guy rolls down the window and starts to talk to the father but the father interrupts and says, "So, you're doing this from the car?!" The younger guy snaps his mouth shut and gets out of the car with the girl.

We flash back to the group of people again and the same blond guy is telling the story that I was watching happen. "I had to tell him I loved her," he says before laughing, "Haha, it's true! I just didn't realize the kind of lovin' I wanted!" He laughs again implying he's just into her for sex. I notice, for some reason, that his right front tooth is bigger than his left. We flash back to the driveway and, for whatever reason now, the same blond guy snaps a salute and says, "I've been enlisted, sir." And it's at this point I think I almost became lucid. Because immediately after this we cut to a scene of a bunch of younger men and women marching in uniforms that were all red and blue and I clearly remember thinking: "Damn. The dad must be glad. He doesn't have to kick the kids ass AND he gets to get rid of him into the military."

And now for whatever reason the song "Masterpiece" by Bayside is blasting throughout my mind. It really feels like a movie and suddenly it seems to be raining and really windy. A young black woman, probably mid to late 20s, is wearing the uniform I described above with some cammo over it. Next to her is a guy that looks sort of like a muscular Pauly Shore. They start saying this mantra and at the end of the mantra everybody in uniform begins shooting at each other. But the "bullets" end up just being water and/or paintballs. I remember a gigantic tree branch snapping off of a tree and flying across a green grassy yard before slamming into a big brick building that looks vaguely like a school. After that an older man comes running across the field while holding some sort of paper up over his face to block the wind and rain. He stops at the young black woman and shouts something over the wind and rain and then that's all I remember there.

7/26/10

I supposedly had a really epic lucid last night, according to a fragment I have of telling someone else about it. Unfortunately it is completely lost.

1- Curse of the Kraken
The apocalypse is approaching. Or so it seems as I stare in horror at the huge wall of water about to wash over me. The wave crashes down upon me, but I manage to grab ahold of a whale serenely floating by. I am relieved that I didn't die. The water retreats back to the horizon, where I see it sit, waiting for a more opportune time to strike. It wants ME, specifically. Buy why? ((Note that I live half a day away from the ocean.))

Throughout the dream it takes many more shots at me. I can't sleep, for fear that I will be dragged off to sea! Somewhere along the line I end up traveling with some people who are sworn to protect me. We are camping out in the forest, thinking it to be a safe place. The girl and boy I am with (who seem to be anime characters from two separate shows) are arguing about whose tent I am going to sleep in. My bodyguard tells them to shut up or take a hike.

I drift off to sleep.

My thoughts begin to narrate what happens after that. "I thought I would be safe in the forest, but the water came for me while I was asleep. It picked me up and dragged me away. When I woke up, I was alone and lost. I had to spend a week in the hospital, but I'm okay now."

Back to the live action. The ocean had grown tired of trying to drown me, so it sends a Kraken after me. While I am on the run from it, we learn the hard way that all who touch the water from now on will become a Kraken as well. People are turning all around me, and I'm chopping them up with a cleaver. The curse gets smarter. Now the mini Krakens are able to turn back into humans, but they still contain their evil souls. My best friend is trying to kill me with an axe!

Then something amazing happens. As I am talking to my friend, trying to plead with her to fight this madness... it actually works. Reason returns to her eyes and she drops her weapon. I realize that this must be why the ocean is out to get me. My voice has the power to break the curse of the Kraken!

1- Antics
I end up throwing a childish hissy fit and run off down the road. I go farther than intended; all the way down to Deerman High. (Name changed.) As I jump the fence, I have a complete character change.

I am now a guy. From a 3rd person POV I see that I have spiky reddish orange hair. Really good-looking. I intend to leave this place before I get caught, but a marvellous sight stops me dead in my tracks: A cheerleader. A tall, blond, big chested cheerleader. I decide to hang around here for a bit, after all. ((What I find most amusing about this dream is that I literally had the mindset of a guy. I apparently didn't remember being a girl AT ALL.)) I pay someone to give me their extra uniform, which allows me to blend in.

Okay, I have several nights worth of dreams to type up. I was wrapped up in a lot of other things so I didn't have time to post them here, but I did either write them down or commit them to memory. I'll do this with one entry per night.

1- Living Dead Girl
Although I am on a cruise ship, it doesn't seem like much of a vacation. Everything is dark and gloomy, from the weather, to the passengers, to the ship itself. I have befriended a group of younger girls, one of whom is suffering from a terrible disfigurement of the face. She is dying; whether from her condition or her own self-pity is hard to tell. Regardless, it's clear that she's looking forward to it.

After her death, the other girls and I hold some sort of ritual to honor her. This, as things often do in my dreams, goes horribly wrong. We accidentally bring the girl back to life.

If it can even be called life. She is trapped between the two planes, able to be physical or etheric as she chooses. And she's furious with us for this. One by one she picks us off. I do my best to try to rescue the youngest of our group from her fury, but I inevitably fail. Our original group of six has dwindled to two. (Three if you count the ghost girl.) We learn that water will vanquish her, but only if it's tap water. She is one step ahead. The rain outside acts as a shield: we can't attack her. We're pretty much doomed.

Speeding and a Shower (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

These dreams are two fragments that I somehow remembered.

1. I was in the shower, taking a shower, but this time, I had my clothes on. Someone I think I know came into the shower too, with clothes on. All of a sudden, my two friends appeared in there, both with their clothes on. We all were silent, because it was pretty awkward. I then made a joke relating this to Hot Topic.

My dad knocked on the door and told me I could either sleep at my pop's house or my cousin Kyle's house. I decided I wanted to sleep at pop's house.

2. I was in my dad's car in the back seat. My sister was in the front passenger seat, while my dad was driving. My sister was looking at the GPS to tell him which direction to go. We were driving about 90MPH. It felt like we were going so fast, so I was afraid we were going to crash.

I heard someone call my name, so I looked back. The car behind us had my little cousins TJ and Lauren in it. I waved to them.

Spinning Rollercoaster? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was at a theme park with my sister, and I believe some of my cousins. I really think my cousin Adriana, Jeannine, and Nicole were there. Others may have been there.

I do not know about what happened at the park, but I do remember the roller coaster. I think the whole dream was about this.

We got up to the line, and everyone went on. I didn't because I did not want to sit next to a stranger. The train car was yellow, the seats were red, and I remember the track. It went up the chain lift, then went down this turn. There was one camel hump (a roller coaster term), and then it went up and did a barrel roll. After that, it smoothly went back to the station. The ride was about 30 seconds long.

My family all sat on the ride, since nobody else was in line, but a few people got off. I went on and sat next to my sister. I was now holding an empty water bottle. The only restraint on this coaster was a seat belt that just goes over your lap. There was a handle bar you could hold on to, but you had to lean pretty far over to hold it. I dropped my water bottle, just so I could hold on.

The ride started, and for some reason, the car was able to spin, so I was holding on. I was thinking my water bottle would get stuck on the track and derail the car. Luckily, it didn't. All in all, the ride was pretty fun.

Awake Dream

So I'm pretty sure there was something before this dream (basketball springs to mind) but I can't remember what so I'll just kick off from what I remember

I'm in asda, at a till. I'm buying a yellow tub off butter and my friend Alex is buying bread. We leave a gap between the next person and our stuff so that the person at the till doesn't get confused. An old man and woman come up and begin filling in the gap with their stuff.

For some reason I realise it's dark but it slips out of my mind when I see the old people. "Hey...Em-" I begin. The woman glares at me and tells me to be quiet. I try again but she does the same thing. I'm pretty damn angry now, so I start to shout at her. I tell her that she can't just push in wherever she wants, life's not like that about anything and she's also an old hag.

She looks pretty shocked and her husband does nothing to defend her so I guess he agrees with me

Alex grabs my arm and pulls me away. She folds her arms and asks me what the hell that was all about.

"Hey, she can't just do that! I was sticking up for you!" I mutter. This place looks like space mountain at Disneyland. It's still pretty dark, I've forgotten all about my butter. She tells me that i'm angry all the time and that I've got to let it out somehow.

Suddenly I'm in what looks like a desert, but it's actually my school playing fields. The fences of the astro have disappeared too. I realise I've volunteered for teenage army training program (eek!). Surprisingly after a few runs and bodyweight exercises, the instructer tells me I'm his favourite student. He puts me and another two people (I'm sure they were people from my class but I can't remember who they were) up for a challenge against the rest of the group.

There's dark coloured sand along the edge of the "field". It's about 3 metres wide. The rest of the group are split into sub-groups and placed along the edge of the dark sand. The rest of my group (two boys) and I are placed at the end furthest away from the school. The instructer pulls us in close and whispers to us that the dark sand is safe but the light isn't. He tells us that we've to make it back to the school without touching the light sand. The groups are going to try to push us off the dark sand but we must get past them or we will be swallowed by the quicksand.

Instead of feeling afraid, I feel oddly determined. I glare at the groups along the path to safety, and know that it's about stealth, not just speed. Because keeping up the speed (especially on sand) to make it all the way to the school will be pretty damn hard. When the bell goes, I run.

I run fast enough to sprint whenever I want and slow enough to keep my stamina up. When I get to the first group, doubt begins to settle in my stomach, but it just makes me altogether more determined to survive, because if I hit that light sand I know I will die.

I dodge past the first few people who fire themselves at me, and then someone grabs my arm. I snarl, and kick them. I manage to knock the wind out of them so I can yank myself free. I keep running. It continues on like this until I reach the area near the school. I've won!

I look back, and realise one of my group are having trouble. "C'mon!" I shout despretely. "You're almost there! Run!" I see that he's not going to make it. Muttering to myself I run back. Dodging the last group, I grab hold of his arm and pull him to safety.

The other unfortunatly got swallowed up, but I grab the boys hand in mine and lift them into the air, glorified.

I remember this being at around 6:00am this morning. I'd been trying for a WILD/DILD for most of the night, but nothing had worked. By this stage in the day it was taking too long to go to WILD, so I just gave up and hoped to have a nice dream.

This is what I got:

I was hiking up a hill with my mum, little brother, and my grandfather (again). The view was beautiful - we were walking up the side of an amazingly tall hill, with nothing but green grass. The hill was on the coast, and I could see to my left miles of pure blue sea. I remember that my grandfather had a hiking pole as he was climbing up.

Eventually (although it didn't feel like any time at all), we arrived at the top. Out of nowhere, a (pink?) helicopter flies in. Inside is my cousin. However, before we can get in, she flies off. We start to walk down the hill. About half-way down, we found a large patch of dirt, which I had no recollection of seeing. We stop, and shout up at the helicopter. The helicopter flies in, and we all get in. All of us, that is, apart from my brother, who didn't stop. We call to him, and he runs up and gets in.

Next thing I know, we're in my grandfather's house (although it didn't look anything like it). I sit down in front of the TV, and my cousin was flicking through the channels. The last thing I remember is there being nothing on telly.

That was probably the strangest dream that I can remember so far. I can also remember small fragments throughout the night.

It always seems to me that the last dream is the one which I remember most clearly. Even straight after waking up from most dreams, I can't think of what to put in my DJ. With the last dream though, I just remember it vividly.

Still no lucidity, but my dreams are starting to become more vivid.

First thing I remember is something about a war but thats it.

Later I dreamt about a being in the grounds of a gallery in the town that I grew up in (this town has to be a dream sign for me since I don't live there any more). We were trying to sneak onto the lawn to get something like we were on some kind of mission. As we got there 3 staff members noticed us 1 came over to us and directed us into the gallery and gave me a specific number (191 I think?). When we entered the gallery there was a large oval display of different people on paper facing outward that you could walk around, the room was quite crowded and I realized that I'm here to find my ancestor on the cards, they were all numbered. At first I thought I was looking for a great or great great grandmother but when I found the right display it was my great or great great grandfather. He kinda looked like me with darker hair and a sweet pointy mustache . The dream ended, faded or I don't remember what happened next (maybe the war???)

Just a snippet of me sitting with some friends and family with a car behind some of their backs, my mom and 2 others try to sneakily push the car away to surprise those with their backs turned. They push to hard and my mom is left trying to stop the car crashing into a wall at the last minute she jumps into the trunk to avoid injury. I jump up infuriated shouting at my mother and the other 2 for being idiots. I turn my attention to the 2 people who didn't help her try stop the car especially the snooty lady who is a mixture of people I know. I'm shouting about how my mother recently had an operation and how bad trying to stop the car alone was for her and that it could have caused permanent damage. The old lady tells me the operation was months ago that just gets me more mad. The dream fades or ends...

This is a slightly weird one:
We're on a family vacation in Swaziland at a weird old fashioned hotel. Assorted family members are there. At 1st I'm angry with my wife for not letting me bring my bike because my brother has his there. Our car is randomly getting repaired. I go upstairs to our room and there is a random guy lying on our bed in my robe, he's had a bath and now he's realxing I suspect him of stealing our stuff and grab my robe from him while he dresses in a hurry, as he leaves I notice some of my stuff in the robe pockets and realize that he's stolen stuff. I yell to my brother to stop him and he does, I run down stairs and grab him I try to throw him down but he's stronger than he looks and he takes me down with him. On the ground I punch him hard in the face and overpower him and recover my stuff.
I go upstairs and sit on the seating in the hall, I need to use the bathroom and suddenly realize that somehow I've pooped behind the seat that I'm sitting on . I'm very embarrassed so I run to our room to get some TP to try clean it up, while in the bathroom I decide to poop in the toilet. Suddenly 3 of my current friends are in the bathroom while I'm still pooping, it's kinda weird and their is some male nakedness , I chase them out and suddenly there is a bunch of people in the hotel room, the bathroom door is still open as well as the hotel room door to the hallway. My wife is there so I yell for her to get rid of everyone, I yell at everyone else to, no-one seems to listen. Them some people take a video from the hallway of me pooping. I rush over to them and grab their laptop, I threaten to throw it into the toilet but don't. I follow them yelling how angry I am and demanding an apology or some remorse, they are brushing me off and laughing, eventually I threaten to speak to their employers and sue I think I woke up at this point.

I'm starting to realize that I've dreamt a lot about the town where I grew up so that may be a possible Dream Sign
Also I have not even been close to doing a RC in a dream my only LD was due to a false awakening - got lots of work to do any help in this regard would be appreciated

1. Me, my brother and dad were trying to leave the house and we were all arguing over who should open the door???

2. I had a huge party with everyone at my school in my house. Everybody was meditating? My religion teacher was there. My mother was aslo there(parents are divorced). I was scared and people were kissing all over. I was in my mothers car and stopped outside the vet by my house. And i had to drive.

3. My brother and i went to a familiar shopping centre. He placed the carry bag on the floor and told me the flats in front of me (which had two people i knew in) were going to break due to (some people's) animals eating it.

4. I went to some anti-racist convention???

1. After supper i made myself dessert, but i ate it in my room so nobody could see? A boy walked in and started trying to feed my dog a small piece of metal. So i got really angry and ran and jumped on him and punched him. The piece of metal was now engulfed in flame. The boy said sorry and the dream ended. It was very vivid and highly unrealistic.

2. My brother was driving a car with a caravan attached, he crashed into another caravan and then phoned my dad and made a joke about it. I was suddenly kidnapped by a gang of rogues. I somehow managed to escape through a tiny hole in the ground. Then the dream ended. Very vivid and highly unrealistic.

3. I was at my gran and aunt's house, which did not look anything their real one. A few unrecalled events took place and the dream ended. very vivid and highly unrealistic.

4. Again i was at my gran and aunts's house which still did not look real. A few more things took place then i woke up. Very vivid yet highly unrealistic.

My first entry. Here goes nothing.

I was hanging out in my new house with my cat, Hammie when I noticed something strange. Hammie was levitating right in front of me! I thought "This is weird, I haven't levitated Hammie as one of my illuisions in a long time. I wonder how he is doing that." I don't remember what happened next, but I remember being outside of my house and saw this girl standing on my driveway. She said her name was Laura and she wanted to meet me. I wasn't really in the mood to meet any of my loyal fans, but she looked nice so I went over to greet her. She seemed lonely so I invited her into my house and had my chef make us some tea. She was kind of turning me on now so I couldnt help myself. I scooted over closer to her and put my arm around her. Then I woke up.
