non-lucid

I was sitting down on the carpet in the freshmen center of our school. There were combination locks on the ground. I was trying to solve them because on each one of them the middle number was missing and it was my job to figure out the missing combos. However, each combination lock also had a sound clip embedded in the back of it.

As I was sitting in front of one of my old teacher's doors, I listening to a sound clip.

Thump, Thump, Thump...

It was the sound of a beating heart. I continued to listen carefully and the heart beat grew irregular. I heard the sounds of a teacher yelling, telling them to let the student die. He was killing her.

I looked up at the teacher in the classroom. He was sitting at his desk. He was the same teacher from the same sound clip. He looked up and stared into my eyes as my facial expression turned to fear and disgust. He quickly realized what I knew and bolted from his chair and began to chase me. I attempted to make a run for it out the door but I was instantly put into a psychological bind. I collapsed to the floor as I shook with regret and fear. I dug my fingernails into the floor, trying to escape the bind. My friend Joe saw me, and tried to shake me out of the spell but I only screamed louder...

5:30a-10:45a
Murder possible
I was first person, but not me. I was a woman named Jayne, and I was reading a letter I found on the table. The hand-writing was a bit hard to read, but it was left for me by the man who planned to murder me. The general gist of the letter (which was very eloquently written) was that he’d been visiting my house and watching me for a while. This was one last way to feel closer to me. I realized that by the tone of the letter, the murderer could be anyone. More apt to be someone intelligent looking and trustworthy, rather than a thug. This stayed with me for the rest of the dream.

New Receptionist
I was at work, and Sonya was quitting. I was chatting with Bobbi (who didn’t look like herself), who was upset because there wasn’t time to train anyone new from scratch. I thought maybe we could work out a deal with my company, and I could apply? Bobbi loved the idea.

Underwater Camera
I was on a cruise ship, helping my dad (who was the captain) rig up this neat camera/screen. People could look through the screen, and see underwater as the ship passed over it. We fed it through the tube once, and I couldn’t really see anything through the screen. We would have to feed it again.

I sent the camera down the tube and watched it go down on the screen. I was lying on my stomache and it felt like I was going down a waterslide. I immediately became self-conscious, as I was leaving myself vulnerable to attack from the murder, who could be anyone, anywhere.

I left the ship to find out where the camera ended up. There was a shallow pool with soapy water for people to clean their feet off in. It was a nice park. I thought about anchoring the camera up on something, but then thought, “But if the camera is anchored, how is the ship supposed to sail?”

Throwing out some garbage
I was at some bins behind a Zellers, dumping some garbage. Someone joined me there. As I was walking away, I thought, “That could have been the murderer!” and started to jog. It felt very free, rather than the “water-legs” I often get.

* June 11: Couldn't post this yesterday because I was gone all day!

This morning was great! I woke up a lot (even though I kind told myself not to, because I knew I needed to get up early). It was frustrating a few times because I'm always a bit hot and generally uncomfortable when I woke up - but I always got back to sleep, so.

Before sleep I meditated with my CD and I love how it puts me right to sleep. XP Also, each time I woke up after, I used my autosuggestion mantra to stop my mind from running rampant. It seemed to help. ♥

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

10.06.2010

Personifications (Non-lucid)

Personifications (anthropomorphic) of countries are real but unseen. Against the advice of others, I 'chose' some as, like, patrons or something.

In the end I was checking out America, boisterous as in Axis Powers Hetalia.

- Something about them being nameless.

- "I avoided them before, but now I'm choosing a lot/many." - me aloud

Dream evolves: It was more than that. They actually became a part of you, like in your mind. Some had names I think, and it wasn't countries anymore.

Note: Inspired by Axis Powers Hetalia.

The Art of Wart Removal (Non-lucid)

We are looking for something. We step in a room (which I believe is the room from my old house, but with nothing in it) and my mom's South Western blanket (black, orange, some red) is spread to cover the whole floor. A woman sits at the back on top of it.

We sit down on the floor at the other end. One man on my right and two people on my left I believe.

She starts talking about warts and how to remove them. She says that one reason you can get them is because of something to do with your period. I don't recall what else she said. However, I do recall some Japanese words, but they were in my head I think... And I tried to look up one (in katakana I believe) in my JWPce (Japanese word processor) but it wasn't in there.

The whole reason I think she was talking about warts is because beforehand, mom gave me a tiny tube of wart remover (blue lid, white tube, had some other small text on it). There were no instructions on it. I couldn't remember how to use it (so I went to look for mom to help maybe?).

Note: This is so weird, seriously. Warts? I haven't had one in years! Haven't even thought of the word itself. Ah subconscious...

Net Flooring (Non-lucid)

I was walking on the floor in one of my really old bedrooms (Renee Lane). It had some kind of clearish net over it. I toed one of the holes, it was wider than the rest like someone had stretched it. I didn't see anything in the room.

Apparently I had once had this really cool bed made of rope and net and such, but while it was nifty, it was dysfunctional for sleeping on so it was taken down.

APH Fancomic (Non-lucid)

I was watching an Axis Powers Hetalia fancomic sequence go by (in my head, yet not). It seemed to be humorous. There was England, Japan (UKJp?) and other characters.

Only thing is, I think I was awake. I opened my eyes. So I might have been in a scene. I get those fairly often, but this was just so BAM right there and I didn't realize I was awake. Hm! It was really cool though.

Taking Advantage of a Kidnapping (Non-lucid)

A bad guy told 'me' to call my parents and read out a code. He was surprisingly young (,not much taller than me) and had blond, short, curly-ish hair.

Only the code was messed up - it was like part of it had been erased, or written over. I showed it to him. He wasn't happy.

I can't tell if it was 'my' mother or father, so I'm going with father. So when I talked to my father, he sounded so dull, like he wasn't feeling anything. I didn't notice until this conversation:

Me: "He's stronger than me. I may not make it. I just want you to know that I love you. I love you, I love you, I love you."
Father: "Okay."
Me: Says something... "I have to go." maybe?

When he just said 'okay' so dully, I briefly worried if he cared what was happening.

This is kind of a gap, but I think I either beat up the guy or he just disappeared and I assumed that I beat him up. Some guys came and took him away.

I was in this area (of the house?) and I had these little square gray-ish pellets. I threw them into these little houses and they exploded. I remember throwing one in and shielding my face. It was cool.

But then I thought of something, and felt around in one of the houses as if there was supposed to be something in them. But it was empty. Just cool to the touch black flooring.

I threw a pellet into this little oil lamp and it set on fire. Cool, again.

Gap?

But then I realized that...there's food in the kitchen! I rushed over. I wondered where the trash bags were, thinking they might be under the sink which is where we keep them in RL. But then I spotted one on the counter. The area was just like my grandma's in RL.

I grabbed the bag and started putting stuff in it. There were a lot of chips (I remember cheese puffs in a freezer bag, barbecue flavor, and one other type of barbecue flavor or something I'd never seen before) in plastic bags.

In one of the bags was a green bottle of some alcoholic beverage with some other little things. I decided to take it with me. I wondered how mom would feel about me drinking it.

Then I knew I needed to put the fire out because it would take too long for me to get everything packed and out of the house.

The fire was actually in the wall, and blazing around one area...and it went down in a strip down a nice cupboard. It was really cool looking, very similar to real fire except for the way it spread. Too slow and contained.

I grabbed a pot (with dried candle tart in the bottom?), filled it with some water and splashed it on the wall. It didn't quite put it out, so I did it again.

Gap.

RL Mom (and dad?) came. She asked why I was taking food, because we had some at home - but she always says that even when we're super low. I said, "But not junkfood." She couldn't say anything to that. XD

She started going through the stuff and helping me. I felt a bit jealous that she was getting to see things - I didn't want to miss out on all the good stuff. I was pretty excited!

Mom said that she hoped she wouldn't be the one having to carry all the stuff out. I said of course not, that I would be.

I found some cereal - lucky charms and a bag of some other kind. I said that it was what I had been planning to get the next time we went to the store. (It wasn't really, I was just excited and they looked good.)

Gap-ish...

I saw that there was stuff on top of the refrigerator. Candles, picture frames, a few other doodads and later, flowers in pots. Everything is so nice looking and I got excited again. I started taking off the things that I wanted.

I got excited...again! when I found a Lucid Dreaming candle. It even had instructions on how to use it on the side. It was white and blue.

When I went to show mom, she pointed out that I had brought the 'Good Fortune' candle instead. There was another one on the fridge as well that had a beautiful mythical woman on it. It was a lovely rose madder color, and written on it was a line about how once burned, the effects would last for a while.

Then I saw the flowers. At first there was just some boring green ones, but I did see this little cactus plant that I liked. I was worried about taking it though, because it could spill if I put it in a bag, or I'd have to hold it in the car.

I got up on...my full laundry basket from RL? and started pulling all the pots of plants to the front. That's when I saw the colored plants. I called mom in to see them. There was a really pretty red one. I'd say it was a rose, but it was too big/wide.

~Gap~ I discovered the movies!

There was Spider-man 1, 2, 3 and...4. Mom asked me if it was okay if she took the last two. I didn't care.

I saw Supernatural and practically jumped on them. There were a few on VHS, the rest were seasons. I was excited to have nabbed them before my sister, who was suddenly there looking through the movies too.

She discovered Merlin and I was even more excited. She handed me a stack of them - they were the slim cases that are usually in a box, like with Joss Whedon's Firefly.

- At some point I worried about taking stuff, because I thought maybe there were people that came by to take care of it all. I wasn't worried about the morality of it, just that I'd be hindering their job or something.

Note: My sister loves movies, so I'm not surprised she appeared at that time. And about the food thing - it totally makes sense for my family. Luckily we got our food stamps today and went to the store.

I think...this is the longest dream I have had yet. o_o

Lost One (Non-lucid)

I got lost. It was like I was young again. I got on grandma's back porch and peered in the window. She was in the kitchen. I couldn't get myself to knock.

I thought about sleeping on the swing. It was a bit cool out but it felt good. Before getting off the porch, I took out my red permanent marker and wrote a 'thank you' type message on a board.

As I went down the steps, there was a German Sheppard Dog, normal in the dream. I patted it.

Gap~

I made it back home somehow, and mom said that it was good because it was cold out. I told her about where I went and about my message.

Note: Grandma got a new dog, but it's not a GSD. I just want one and was talking about it recently. This is a deja vu dream - as I wrote it down I felt like I had totally had this dream before. While I know if I've had 'at grandma's house' dreams, I was never young or saw a dog...but then again, I think I was lost once... Hmm.

Cappuccino (Non-lucid)

Mom came in saying she'd get me some coffee/cappuccino. Seems we were going somewhere, or she wanted me to go somewhere with her.

I thought about bringing up my Starbucks' card, but she mentioned somewhere specific so I decided not to say anything.

Note: One of those dreams that's so real life that it's surprising when you realize it was just a dream.

Oi'! Cat Mummies! (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was a bit odd, I was inside the Eidos TR forums it seems like, or at least I don't remember a computer screen. I remember I kept PMing Shanice, and it was titled "Oi'." I was trying to get her to reply so I sent it to her repeatedly.

Shift.

I'm at the top of this huge valley, I look down and see a rope hanging just under the ledge I'm standing on. Shanice comes up behind me and say's "Oi'! how many times are you going to send me a PM titled Oi'?"

And we just started laughing.

We start to climb down the rope and it takes forever seeing because it's almost a mile down into the valley. As we get down into this valley we see cat mummies closing in on us.

Recall ends.

I recall something that I own that would help them - an orange button/pin that makes the whole team perform better. I don't have it on me, but Jon tells me that he has one at his house, so we go. We're there in a timeshifting few seconds, and most of his 'house' looks like an outdoor garden. We bullshit around a little and then find the pin in a shoebox. I notice that his is different from what I 'remember'; it has an LCD display that allows some sort of skill adjustment. Jon tells me to hide because his mother and sister are home, so, confused, I follow his shoving motions into a nearby bush. His mom sees me, though, and tells me to come out and talk with them. Jon's mom is blonde, yet this woman's hair is black (in retrospect, I realize it to be another friend's mom). I can't recall what was said between us, but as far as I can tell, we got the pin to the game and helped Pitt win. Go us.

Wal-Mart Manager Me (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I walk into wall-mart and into the freezer section where my little brother works. (He does not work in wall-mart! And he is too young!)It's in the back right part of the store instead of near the front. I walk up to his manager and say hello. She looks exhausted! She tells me she's going to have to fire my brother and that she is quitting too. She asks me if I want to be manager and I don't answer - I'm too dumbfounded. I don't like the fact that my brother is getting fired, but I do need a job. So unwillingly I take it. (Wouldn't do that in real life...) Then they asked if my mom wanted Toby's job, I knew that she was looking for a job so I said yes. I walked over to where Toby was, he was feeding some sharks in a little tank! I hung out with him for a little while, but then I had to tell him the bad news. He took it well, he even seemed happy.

Since mum hadn't started work yet, the woman who gave me her position sent another worker in to cover mum's shift for the day. We started working. More like, I watched. I wasn't aloud to do anything other than supervise. I hated that, so I protested and told her I wanted to help. She said "oh no, you'll have plenty to do later."

That didn't sound very promising to me. So I hung around and I started thinking, "what if mom doesn't want the job?"

"I bet she doesn't," I said to my self. So I asked if the higher-ups if I could call her and ask, but before I can even do that they convince me to just let a girl named Andee/Andy take the job. And so Andy came and took over the shift with me. So now I'm working with Andy instead of the woman who was covering the shift.

Our boss comes into watch. I'm sitting in a very ridged/masculine position with my chin resting on my fist, sitting a bit hunched over.

"Psst! Be you're self! Relax a little!" And says when our boss isn't looking. She imitates me position mockingly.

"I am being my self, I'm just weird like that," I said then blushed. When our boss turned back around she was mumbling about the trash man, complaining about him taking too many breaks. She told me she should go get a uniform for me.

"I prefer to wear the cloths I have on if it's okay," I said shyly. I got a bit bored, so I turn around and push the blinds out of the way so I could look out the window. The trash man angrily whispers at me to "not be so rough with the blinds." So I gently move the blinds out of my way and look out. What I see is disturbing, my mom was in the lap of another man - kissing him! Then I noticed I was holding the blinds too hard again, so I let go. And got a death glare from the trash man.

I'm not sure what happens after that.

My dad and I are walking the streets of Covington, KY, and talking about what I call "middle English" slang after he uses the word "gazooks!" However, in the dream I understand "middle English" to be Wild West or Industrial Revolution times. I make a joke that we're going back to 1865, like the cast of "Back to the Future" visited the frontier. Exactly after I do so, we find ourselves walking in the Covington of the past. It looks like a typical frontier mining town, and we go on a quest to find his grandfather who is living there. We interact with the bums to find this information, and eventually are led to a saloon. Both of us sit at a rather uncrowded long table, and I request a hard cider. The pretty barmaid smirks at me and says "Take off your glasses, Mr. Mafoy," with the unspoken assumption that they make me look younger than legal drinking age.

Wow, first real entry into the new DJ system! As you surely have noticed, I've moved ALL of my last DJ into this one. If you want to read those, just look for posts tagged 'archive', or that have 'ARCHIVE:' as the beginning of the title. I've also made a new 'welcome' page, but unfortunately it has already been lost amid all the other posts...I was kind of hoping I could set it to appear as the first page everyone sees, but it doesn't look like that is possible (yet). Anyway, for what it's worth, feel free to visit the welcome page!

Unfortunately, I don't get to start off with some big, awesome post. But since my dream recall is getting quite shabby I need to write what I remember and start building that back up. Next time I have a lucid dream I don't want to forget all the details!

The beginning of the dream is a blur. I didn't stay in one area or storyline for very long; even though it was all one dream, without any level of lucidity whatsoever I was subject to the whims of my sleeping mind, which seemed to take me all over the place. One moment I was in a futuristic setting, the next a medieval, and the next something like real life. I can't remember what I was doing in the first two settings...I can only vaguely remember the face of another person in each one.

However, I do remember something of what happened in the FA-ish place. I was looking at pictures from the medieval place I had just been, when the phone rang. It was a woman I shall refer to as Jane Doe. (she's from real life, and in real life I care about her a lot, hence my mind put her in the dream) She was returning a call I had made to ask if she wanted to go out together with me. Said she was free on Monday at 3:50 (don't ask why that exact time; I don't know). Fine and good, right? Almost. Her father was also on the phone, and apparently yanked it out of her hand and started yelling at me for taking his daughter away from him. She quickly grabbed the phone back and told me not to pay attention. That didn't really help calm down her dad, though. Eventually she had to just assure me that it would be alright and she'd be there at 3:50...and then had to hang up.

After that I walked off to do something...and next thing I know, I'm waking up.

Definitely not the best dream night ever.

Poor recall again, but for once I'm sort of glad. It's better than dreaming about what happened yesterday.

1- Four Silly Rats
I have my rat cage out in the back yard. I now seem to have four rats: Dusty, Luna, another white one who's name I don't remember, and Rainbow (who has very colorful fur). Dusty is a trouble-maker. At one point she runs away, but I eventually find her and put her on top of the cage. There is an electric wire stretched across the yard which she is trying to mess with. The other rats are nervous, because the wire keeps getting closer and closer to the cage. Dusty shocks herself, and I get shocked trying to get it away from the other rats. Dusty's fur is singed, and she falls over for a moment, stunned. I pick her up by her tail. "Owww, that was painful," she moans in her little rat voice. ((I love it when my rats talk in dreams. Their voices are so cute!))

"I told you not to mess with it."

2- Runaway
I am playing with some runaway kids. One of the older ones is chasing me through a brier patch, and I am purposefully running through the briers rather than using the deer trails so that escape is easier. My poor arms...

When we get to the end of the gravel road behind my house, I notice that there is a McDonald's built there. "Cool!" I say, "I never knew we had a McDonald's behind our house!" ((LOL The stupidity of this is amusing. We live way out in the country, for one thing...)) One of the girls I am with runs in and orders a Happy Meal. I am worried that I don't have any money to pay for it, since she is in my care, but she has her own money.

So, I had my first false awakening that I've ever remembered last night, but I didn't realise and was kicking myself afterwards.

I awoke -- or rather I got out of bed following a seemingly failed WBTB WILD attempt -- and went down stairs. I ate breakfast in the lounge with my family. I was annoyed with myself that I couldn't get comfortable when trying my WBTB. I sat watching TV, not doing much. I looked at the clock and saw it was 35 minutes past my usual waking time. Then I awoke for real.

I was having trouble trying to get comfortable when I returned to bed for the WBTB. It would seem I fell asleep without realising and just kind of kept going logically in my dream. I've never experienced a false awakening or anything similar before, at least not that I can remember. The time in the dream was 35 minutes later than when I would usually get up, which I should have caught since my WBTB time is obviously earlier than that. I really need to be more diligent in doing RCs whenever I wake up or leave my bed for any reason.

On a side note, I've had no recall over the previous two nights. I really must get back on track with it. I wonder if stress affects recall? Super stressed lately.

Abstract DV debate (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Went to bed too late (yet again), so I had one dream. Since I've been reading Dan Brown's new book, I think this dream was influenced by it. I was on the DV forums, in the off-topic secion, most likely the R/S forum. I was debating the power of the human mind, and whether or not thoughts had mass, which I argued they did. This caught my opponent in the debate (Slash?) completely off-guard. There was some more back-and-forth banter, but the dream ultimately ended in some sort of enlightening revelation. I remember little of it, but the phrase, "Movement is power" seems to be ringing a bell. So yeah, freaky dream...

Chaos and enlightenment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Went to bed much too late last night (again). Did LD mantra, etc. I remember one dream, somewhat faintly. I recall that there was absolute anarchy and chaos, and nothing was making sense. However, there was also a sense of enlightenment and learning, a coming of great knowledge. It was a pretty abstract dream, all in all. I've been reading The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown, which may account for this dream.

Highway laws of Japan (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had two dreams in total last night, no lucids (partly because I went to bed much too late). I did have, however, two very detailed dreams. In the first one, I'm watching a video explaining how the Japanese highway system works. Apparently, there was a large, wide lane every few thousand feet or so designed so that very large vehicles could get around the smaller, slower traffic. When a person apporaches one of these "wide zones," they are to pull over immediately so that anything behind them can pass. The video went on further to explain that a vehicle had to be approved my some ministry of something before it could use the wide zones.

Rediculous, time-stopping nonsense (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This dream was exceptionally strange. Again, I was observing events from the 3rd person point of view. Someone (Maverick?) had slept around with this farmer's daugher in Texas somewhere. When the dude found out, he was pissed. He gathered up all his Texas, redneck, gun-toting buddies for a "shootout" against the accused. Some suggested torturing the guy first by shooting his hands and legs, then slowly working toward the vital organs. Thinking fast, the guy slipped into some sort of conga party. He jumped to the front of the line. The party was being held indoors, and the conga-ers were passing through a doorway. The guy, now apparently having time-stopping capabilities, threw up some sort of time barrier that slowed anyone who passed through it to an incredibly slow speed. It was not slow enough, however. As the accused made his escape, one person from the conga line saw him take the elevator down and out the back exit. By the time anything was done about it, however, the man was already gone.

Messin' around beneath the chemistry lab (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was a particularly fun dream. I was sitting in my high school chemistry lab, waiting for the teacher to return with the lesson plan. He came up empty-handed, and instead sent myself and my sister to retrieve the plans for him. The catch was that the lesson plans were at the end of a secret labyrinth of hidden passageways and trap doors. He told us to lean on the bookcase in the corner of the room, and to my surprise, it swung freely. We were now on the other side of the bookcase, which was a small room containing a door. All in all, it was really more of a puzzle zone than a labyrinth. The door was locked, and we were required to find the key before continuing. This was easily accomplished, and we disappeared through the door. We were greeted by a hallway containing numerous doors, many of them tricks (i.e. brick walls with a handle that may or may not open up). I opened one door and stepped inside, only to fall down this great, metal slide. To either side of me were stairs, which my sister had chosen to take, instead. The stairs she had chosen, however, ultimately ended in a slide. We were both careening down this enormous metal slide, headed for the bottom, which was a hard-wood floor. It looked similar to a theater. Feeling quite safe, we adjusted ourselves to pick up speed. At the end, we slid across the floor and right into the far wall. There was a curtain just to the right, so we pulled a string and the curtain opened to reveal a bubble blower. There was nothing else, no lesson plans or anything, so we scooped up the bubble blower and headed back from whence we came. The dream ended with my sister blowing bubbles.

SAT panic (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

In my dream, I had just taken the SAT's, along with some of my classmates. However, rather than filling in the bubbles for our math, we used notebook paper and a pencil to show our work and record our answers. For whatever reason, the SAT people didn't want to collect our answers immediately. Instead, we were allowed to collaborate and figure the answers out as a group. Some thought it was cheating, and some were just happy to find their answers at all. The dream ended shortly after I figured out what answers went to what section.

Second Lucid!! (MILD)

I had dreams galore last night! It was my day to sleep in, but it was still very impressive. Among these dreams was my second lucid. I was sitting in the moonlight in some room somewhere, when it suddenly hits me that I'm dreaming. I become very happy, but I am able to contain it much better this time. Instead of immediately waking up, I try spinning, which was very unusual. My entire vision went black, and I kept reminding myself that I was dreaming. While I was spinning, I also saw advertisements. When I stopped spinning, I was still lucid, but I believe I had a birds-eye view of some forest in Italy, with a bear romping around. I felt the dream fade again, so I spun, which led back to the blackness and the ads. This caused a false awakening, which immediately caused a real awakening.

He's a Pirate (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Among my many dreams of the night was one in which I was a pirate on a pirate ship. I was among a portion of the crew that was mutineered agaist my the rest of the crew. We knew that the mutiny was coming, and what the others planned to do to us, so we made preparations. We knew from rope fragments left behind that the other pirates wanted to tie us to the hand railings and dispose of us later. Therefore, while no one was watching, we loosened all the bolts holding the railing down. But then came the mutineers, who tied us up as expected. However, they went so far as to throw towels over our heads so we could not see. Just as they reached me, I woke up.

Santa Claus (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I also had a dream about Santa Claus, during his summer break. He was big and fat, and very jolly. He was telling me how he had to pick up his mother and sister. He also said that he should build a second turbo-sleigh, so that his family could fly themselves around. Meanwhile, a friend of mine was just putting the finishing touches on a book of his. He proudly waltzed into the library, run by Mrs. Claus. She looked the book over and remarked on its expert craftsmanship. She said she would add it to the library.

I also had a fragment in which I received mini-pins for my 4.0 achievements, something I had no prior knowledge about. By the time they were all attatched, my letter was completely covered by pins. I also remember rearranging the pins on my gold letter. I believe there was also something about a watch with my school mascot, and class rings, too. As far as fragments go, it was fairly detailed.

Grandpa (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

My grandfather passed away a few months ago, so I'm not too surprised by this dream. My family and I were going around and naming different plots of land after people past. We finally got to "Grandpa Island." It should be noted that this very plot of land has been visited before in previous dreams, and that I've never seen this area before in reality. The island was a rectangle, with the top third dry and grass-covered, while the rest was reedy and swampy. Apparently, this is where my Grandpa liked to sit and meditate. From there, however, the dream got really strange. All of a sudden, I was living out an autobiography of my Grandpa. I hoisted this enormous tree out of the ground using only brute strength. I then began to bash it repeatedly against a cliff in an effort to break it in half, but the narrator warned against it, so I stopped, for fear of flying shrapnel. There were power lines overhead, so I couldn't lift the tree, but I had to find some way to dispose of it. I was reluctant to throw it over the edge of the cliff and into the sea. So, I sought out other means of disposal. There was a playground, a soccer field, and all kinds of other public places, but none would do. Just as I found a place to dump the tree, I woke up.
