non-lucid

I only remember about half of my dream. A little summary: I have a dog named Otis. There is a stray dog who keeps coming over to my house in real life; and he attacks all the cats and kills things. Okay, summary over. Here's the dream: My dog Otis was trying to protect me from the stray dog in our neighborhood. He wouldn't go away. (Just so you know, my dog Otis had heart problems and arthritis.) Anyways, The stray dog tried to bite me a couple of times, so Otis was trying to "save" me. He seemed invincible in this dream. . .it was cute, but odd. But that's all I remember.

Some extra details: I was in this tree house looking thing. . . that had a lot of stairs leading up to it. The lighting was dark, but I could see okay. It's like I could see myself backing away from the dog and Otis trying to protect me. Like I was seeing it from someone else's eyes.

The only part I remember was at the last part of my dream. . .or maybe it was the only part of my dream. But anyways; I was in this body of water, it was like a sea, but it had no waves. I seemed to be sitting on something on the water. My father was there, he was treading water in front of me. We seemed to be swimming out somewhere. My dad was right by this yellow, cushiony block thing. It almost looked like a piece of pineapple, but as big as a pillow. I asked him what the block was, he ignored me and said there were some kind of worms in it. For some reason I asked, "Do they bite?" And he replied, "Sometimes." Then I woke up.

Well I think I appeared in this front yard of a house. It was my friend's house, but it wasn't actually her real house in real life. Anyways, I think I was looking for her. I walked in the front door; and, expecting to see her, she wasn't there. Nobody was there. The lights were dim, and it was a spooky setting. It felt like there was some kind of dark presence there. There were candles there, and it was stuffy.

But I guess I walked away, because now, I appeared in the front yard of MY house. Except, it wasn't my real house in real life. Well my mother was there, and she was cleaning. There were 6 girls on our trampoline outside. There was the really weird game contraption thing, like 7 feet tall and 8 feet wide. It was some kind of 3d baseball-golf game..But anyways, I think the girls were leaving somewhere with my mom, but I'm not sure where. While we were waiting, I went and played that weird machine, game thing. All I remember playing it was like I was in this big contraption trying to shoot golf balls or something. Anywho, for some reason I looked around and saw a helicopter flying over us. It landed halfway onto the road, with the nose touching the ground (a kind of awkward land, haha). And then all 24 of the 4th graders from my school poured out of the helicopter (it was strange, because the 4th graders were on an overnight field trip that night!). Oddly, I looked away, and all the kids and the helicopter were gone; with my mom's suburban in its place, waiting for me. Since the golf game was gone, I walked toward my mom's car.

But then, as I was walking, it was like my dream (or scenery) faded and then I appeared in some little kid's school. But it was like a courtyard (it was outside with doors lining the walls). I walked ahead and there were kids from ages 3-7, all sitting along the walls like they were carpooling or something. Once I got to the end of the courtyard, this kid; about 6, said something to me. Then he called me a name. Haha. I don't exactly remember what started the problem, but then as I walked back out of the school, all these little kids kept screaming and crying, not letting me go. Then I woke up shortly after reaching the end.

I only remember the first part of the dream.
I was in some kind of club; but it was a house..but it was a club. Lol. It was a house owned by my dad and his brothers. So a few minutes later, this man came in with his son. They came to get some fishing gear. (It was odd, for I never saw anything in there related to fishing) I was sitting on the couch, and I immediately recognized the man's son. I said something like, "Do I know you? You look familiar." He said something but I can't exactly remember what it was. So I asked him if he wanted a coke, and he replied sure. I went to the fridge, and it was slightly bigger than any fridge. I opened it and the Pepsi and Dr. Pepper cans looked slightly distorted..but I thought nothing about it in my dream. I handed him a Pepsi. I guess we talked for a while and then we did some more stuff. But that's all I remember.
Right after I woke up in the morning, I recognized his face. He seemed to be a face from my childhood. It was very strange.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The dream began in a classroom on a stool by a high brown table. My old high school friend Matt D. was there and the teacher was before a small chalk board. She was white-haired and scrawny and began teaching on a subject that made absolutely no sense using bogus terms. Eventually I ask what she's talking about only to have her get really pissy with me. I mutter to Matt that I'll have to drop this class who replies he will too. The rest of the students seem to have no issue following along. Later the teacher has everyone spell out a word and change it to capitol letters, noting how the "stems have changed." I thought this part easy but somehow I missed the entire point as it related to some imaginary complex mathematical principal. I tell Matt how frustrated I am to continually get paired with terrible teachers who never take the time to actually teach. I then remind him how last semester at UofL caused me chronic depression for over two months.

After class a fellow student comes up and tells us we have to visit the counselor on Thursday for lunch tickets and Matt exclaims we don't have that long to waste. I say we must get a new class by Tuesday, being tomorrow. I part ways and go into a lobby of sorts that reminds me of the interior of a Busch Gardens building. It's dark and rainy out the windows and it dawns on me that I'm back at JCC. I place my red backpack on a ledge where the white-haired teacher storms past, rummages through my backpack, finds a dollar bill near the top, seems to get bored and leaves without taking the bill. Someone who witnessed the scene laughs.

Eager to go get a new class I realize my next one begins in fifteen minutes. I look at a schedule to find it's some sort of "Justice" class at the one-hundred level. I find and read a description about how one learns to become an action girl or action guy. These crime fighters can phase into an astral realm. Perfect for stealthy operations. I see that the class is in the "Special Interest" building. I picture in my head Southeast Christian Church (shoutout to a dream I had possibly years ago) but wish to confirm it. I run up and ask a man but am interrupted by a girl who wants his attention. I wait only to find the man has transformed into a woman on looking again. This time I use the term "ma'am" only to get a "wish I knew" response. I return to my backpack. When I try to pick it up it collapses apart and books fly everywhere. I sigh, getting out a PB&J sandwich and wishing JAH still went to school with me, at this point too flabbergasted to gather my belongings together. An older lady sitting in a chair watches me. I learn she herself is an action girl. I feel a legitimate excitement for my next class, however, but I'll never know if it was any good seeing as how I woke up.

I'm completely addicted to Facebook games- namely, Frontierville and Cafe World. I kept waking up on my own when I knew something was ready... so I didn't get the best sleep.

One dream was like a computer game or some sort of cartoon skit. A baby was hanging from a door and I had to dress him in cowboy clothes in order to open up a nursery. Then there was some sock puppet/wind sock that I accidentally took apart. I placed the wrong piece on the end and some man was upset that I killed his Socky. I replaced the right part and he was happy again. Other things happened but I fail to remember them.

In another dream, I was walking down an apartment sidewalk. I heard a dog growling, a baby crying faintly and smacking sounds. I tried to look inside but it was all a blur. The crying and smacking got louder so I pounded on the door and told them the police were there and they had better open up. A 14-16 year old girl was abusing the baby. The grandmother was at her wits end. There was another kid or 2 there. The girl was punishing the baby for something, thinking abuse was the way to do it. I stood in the doorway and explained to them that abuse was NEVER the answer... that they should be ashamed of themselves... if I found out it continues, I really would call the cops... that it was never okay for anyone to treat them that way either. The baby was a boy and he had welts on his butt to the point he looked disfigured. He bent in such a way that he kissed his own boo-boos. Then he went to his grams and cuddled against her. She explained the abuse the children had gone through with their father. I don't remember how it ended... oh yeah, but as I was leaving, they accidentally shut the door and the baby was outside. I picked him up and brought him back inside and joked he was already trying to run away. Then I worried they might take that literally and beat him again.

In another dream, I was in a large house. It was horribly messy and located where my trailer is in RL. There were at least 3 stories. A computer was knocked over during some rough-housing. One of the kids in the house was about 18 years old. He was ready to strangle someone because the computer was his livelihood. I then went to each of the kids and assigned them chores to do PRONTO. On the top floor, I explained to a young boy why the computer was so important... that it was his brothers "way out". The brother heard me and his rage went away and he felt love for the little boy. He sat beside the younger boy and explained, himself, why it was so important to him.
Downstairs, a couple of girls were arguing and they didn't appreciate being given chores at all. But they went to work anyhow.

In another dream, somehow connected to the last one... I was in the RV. Some guy lived in it and was renting it to me. My oldest daughter flooded the toilet, and I yelled at her... asking her what she didn't understand by "Don't use the toilet, it's FULL!" There was hamster bedding all over the floor and I yelled for one of my other kids to vacuum it up. Then I saw 2 rabbits hopping everywhere. I was ready to pull out my hair. I told my daughters to give them back to their friend, that we didn't have a cage for them... but they cried and said they were Iccabahs babies and they found them. (Iccabah is a cat lol).
Oh yeah.. at the beginning of the dream, the old man was arguing with a cop. The cop insisted he had parked in the middle of the road. Though the car was no longer there, the officer was giving him a stern warning. The old man said it couldn't be proved and that the officer was a liar. He then went on to say something I've forgotten, but it was basically a tit for tat thing (the old man made up something against the officer and told him to prove it was untrue). When the cop left, I called the old man an asshole under my breath. My feelings softened for him, though, as the dream progressed.

In another dream, I kept going to Sheetz to fill up my 52 oz cup but I would leave having forgotten to do so. I would drive back and do it all over again.

I dreamed something about food... icecream and other stuff.

I dreamed someone asked how big my family was and I said I came from a family of 11 (it was really 7), though we weren't raised together. The person knew my bio-dad and said something strange about my brother Eric rising from the grave a couple times a year (in RL he died in an ATV accident). Then I saw the man was a Pentacostal Preacher and I felt compelled to listen to him out of politeness. Then he wrapped me in some sort of cloth and dispelled demons and told me to pray. I don't recall what I asked. Then he slipped some trinket into my hand and when he removed the cloth, I was supposed to slide the trinket into a candle slot. It was star shaped and I couldn't get the object inside. The Preacher ended up doing it for me. Don't recall how it ended.

In another dream (one of the first of the evening), all I recall is a woman snobbishly smiling at my buzz cut.

In one of the last dream tidbits, my hair was growing back quickly but unevenly. I had a lot of long wisps.

That's it.

I was in konsum (a food store) with some friends. I wanted to buy something tasty to drink. Peter said "Mango juice!". I thought about it. I liked the idea since it is both tasty and cheap. We went to the shelf with mango juice and I saw that they had cranberry juice too. considered getting that one instead. Suddenly I noticed that the price was extremely low on both. 3 SEK. It was because the due date was only two days away. I finally decided for the cranberry juice and then I don't remember anymore.

Iron Woman (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I in an abandoned warehouse, I've been spotted by bad-ish guys. They don't try to harm me, but I know I'm not safe around them at all. Right now I'm doing them a favor, I believe in return for some sort of information, think of it as an exchange of information. They ask how I keep getting in undetected, I've been in control of the situation and I liked to toy with them so I'd sneak in the warehouse all the time instead of walking through the front door. It intimidated them, which was my whole reason for doing it.

"I never go the same way twice," I tell them in an aloof tone.

We exchange a few words and I free climb through the rafters and out a window near the highest point of the building. I jump onto some crates below and work me way down to an ally way below, right next to some docks. Out there I'm confronted by an man in his late 30s, he has evil, greedy intentions. There's an innocent younger boy following him. The young boy has great power, he can use the force (like in starwars) to move objects. The energy he uses has a blue aura. The man confronts me and demands to know something, he's very rude and forceful. Because he is so rude I make some casual sarcastic remark that pisses him off even more. We get in a bit of a scrap, he is weak compared to me and so he yells at the boy to help him. The boy, unsure, starts to build up his energy.

"You and I both know you shouldn't," I said to the boy in a sympathetic tone. "Save your power for some greater cause."

I fight off the man after a moment and scare him off, I'm left with the poor young boy.

I'm some how made aware of a situation going on "down town."

"I'll be back," I tell the boy. I gear up in my Iron-Man suit and fly off. I fly past buildings and huge sky scrapers. I spot something on the streets below, some giant dinosaur. I fire at it with the weapons in the palms of my hands and destroy it.

I realize it was just a giant decoy, it wasn't even real. I'm alerted to a situation going on back at the docks, something's happening to the boy. It was all a trick.

Recall fades.

Band Meet (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm in a river, actually I'm standing on a very wide and shallow bank. There's a waterfall on the other side and right next to me is a large drop off where the water gets really deep and the current is very fast. There are many predators (and their prey) animals there with me. They're everywhere, but yet they aren't chasing each other or trying to eat one another. I'm standing next to a bear who's watching many fish swim by, I wonder why he isn't trying to catch them. At one point the water gets really bloody around me, I think because the bear finally killed one of the fish.

My dream shifts and the river bank slowly becomes some sort of events area. I think it may have turned into a large cruise ship. There are many different bands on this ship, they're all taking turns using the stage. I really liked one of the groups so I ran over to a table they had set up that had their songs burned on CD's. All the band members were sitting behind the table causally carrying on light-hearted conversations. I pick up one of the pamphlets sitting on the table and start to read. It has somewhat of a limerick, talking about how dull one of the band members sex life is and how he rather watch war documentaries. (It was actually kinda funny but I can't remember it right now... -_- So please, feel free to question my mental health.) There's a scan of an old painting in the pamphlet, most of the people in it are incredibly pale naked women. I pay little attention to it and continue reading until my mother harshly grabs my arm. I close the pamphlet in a single handed motion and act nonchalant. (Uh yeah, my parents may be considered kinda strict to some people...)

"Hey, what's up?" I say cooly.

She says nothing and holds up another copy of the same pamphlet. She seems pissed at the fact that I was even reading it all. I sighed and managed to shoo her off after a while.

I walk back to the table.

"How much for a copy of your CD?" I ask the lead singer who's still sitting behind the table.

"We're giving 'em away right now. Here, take one," he says and smiles, handing me a CD. He reminds me of Justin Pierre from Motion City Soundtrack.

I sit down across from the group and start asking them random questions for no real reason at all. I ask them stuff like "What's your favorite ice cream, color, where did you grow up?" All sorts of random things. They started asking me why I even bothered talking to them, I forget my reply.

Recall Fades.

Best Friends (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm in some sort of shop, I think it was a small dinner or something. There aren't many people there, just Elodie, two guys and I. We chat casually about random things that I can't even remember anymore. I have a really hard time pronouncing her name for some reason, I keep stressing the O in her name. No matter how hard I try I'm unable to say it properly. And yet It's easy in real life, weird. I spot a note for Elodie sitting next to the cash register.

"Hey Elodie, there's a note for you next to the regist-" She grabs my arm and drags me behind the counter and through a door into a long hallway.

"Tessa! I don't want them to know I work here!" she says harshly. I don't really remember who the guys were that were in the dinner with us, so I can't explain why she didn't want them to know.

She looks distressed, like something else is bothering her but she's unsure wether to tell me or not.

"Elodie, what's wrong?" I ask.

She runs away and I follow, I follow her into a room at the end of the hallway and catch her. She starts crying and ranting about something, I just let her vent. After she's done I actually say something for once that cheers her up, I'm able to make her smile. It was a really touching moment and I'm forever kicking myself for not being able to recall the dialog. -_-

The thing I remember best is when we hugged, I actually didn't want to let go. With most people I just don't feel them there when they hug me, but not this time, I felt really loved. I wasn't gonna be the first to pull away, so we just stayed there a little while. After a moment I could hear heart heart beat with my own, they were beating at the same time, in the same rhythm. (I wonder what that means... Huh...) I chuckled at the fact.

"What's so funny?" She asked.

I pulled away so I could see her when I spoke. "Our hearts, they're in tempo with each other, beating at the same rhythm."

She then chuckled too.

I wake up and 5:30 and am unable to fall back asleep.

MILD not nearly as successful last night; no biggie.

#942:
Date: July 3rd, 2010
Length: 3 minutes

This dream was pretty strange and I'm having some trouble remembering it. Basically it was some kind of story and/or game that began in hell. At some points I think I was some woman, at others I was satan. Anyways, I started in a kind of a giant cave with an extremely high ceiling, and I saw someone fly towards the top of it and out through an opening. I was supposed to follow, but unable to fly myself. I then discovered I could someone portals, and so I used those to transport myself to the opening. I ended up on some kind of giant floating ship, that was being readied.

I was apparently the captain of the ship and its army, and so I began preparations to set out. I checked out some of the soldiers -- they were all ghosts, but only in appearance -- they all could normally interact with the physical world. Eventually I wanted to start heading out, but something was wrong with the ship, and I spent the rest of the dream trying to fix it.

As soon as I woke up I grabbed my laptop, hoping to record everything I could remember from my dream. Unfortunately I couldn't remember much at all

There was a part with some girl in some room. Hmm.

And then I was with a group of people. I cannot remember what happened.

Something happened to my command prompt and then TW sent me this piece of code (actually, three different versions of it that I could choose from) and was like "I fixed it up for you, I just put this piece of code in". Before I could ask him how one would go about doing that, I woke up. But I recall that it was something to do with the system32 folder. Lol.

Model Look (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember being outside of a shopping center when someone said to me, to just put these clothes on, and make me hair look nice. He took me somewhere and fixed me up, I was really confused as to what was going on. Eventually he finished and just told me to go and do whatever it was I was going to do.

While I was in I walked past made me look really a mirror and noticed something wierd, hewierd with my hair straighter and with different clothes. I didn't know I was any different. I went back to him to get my clothes but on the way I went to the toilet, it wasn't very well kept and there were no stalls, just a bunch of toilets side by side. Eww The person next to me said that this toilet is popular because it's cleaner than the others, he said he often comes here just to use that toilet, I was kind of wierded out.

I told the man to give me back my clothes but he said no, I kept annoying him about it, and eventually he did.

The Chosen One (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember being granted a short sword and small shield, they didn't look very impressive, but I took them anyway. When I took them, they started glowing a fiery red colour, the man who gave them to me said, "You are the chosen one" He told me that I could do some magic, but I needed to figure that out on my own.

I figured out that I could do a Shockwave like magic, with a pulse coming out of my hand. I didn't exactly know what I needed to do with them. When I showed my friend to shockwave I couldn't do it again afterwards, and the sword and shield stopped glowing. I gave them to him and they started glowing again, I guess they changed their mind on who their master is, I was a bit dissapointed at first, but glad for him, still didn't know what they were for though...

Sorry for making you wait, guys. What with the injury I got, and the trip to the desert, and the exams software develping thing, I have been really slacking off in my updating. I got the paper DJ RIGHT HERE, and I am gonna copy past it. Hold on for an hour or to, and go get a coffee. Oh yeah! lucidmax's back on the line!

P.S. I don't keep a date on my paper DJ, as I assumed I would be typing it on the computer anyways. -_- Sorry.

I had somehow traveled to the future. Everything, each and every thing, was made of glossy glass. (forgive the pun) I was standing on a platform. I remember I saw a white tiger crawl stealthily by, with a large red sign above it 'Dangered Species. Do not erase OR eat.', that sort of laid waste to it's rather successful attempts at stealthiness. I chuckled to myself, [COLOR="teak']turning semi-lucid for a moment or two,[/COLOR] and losing lucidity again. I continued along. I jumped on a bed, then jumped a few more times, going higher every time, before finally hitting the glass dome of the city and injuring my head. Though I hit my forehead point blank, I felt the pain in my arm.
Suddenly, my Tae-Kwon-Do sparring partner comes up, and slashes at me. He had the sword Cloud uses in Final Fantasy.



Instinctively, I summoned my sword. That's right. Without turning lucid. I block his slash, then push my sword back, causing him to go back as well. I didn't give a single thought to lucidity, it was just me and him. I rushed towards him, and slashed swiftly at his side. e parried my attack, and then countered with his own.
It lasted for some time like this. We slashed and thrust at each other furiously.
No clear winner emerged. We just fought ourselves to exhaustion.
