They Speak Japanese in Portugal (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







Dream: P.TM Live

★★★★☆

After a live showing of Portugal. The Man, I get to hang out with the band. They turn out to be really cool guys. They have a jam session, playing songs from their new album, and the music is truly amazing.

Dream: That's Not Right

★★☆☆☆

I'm taking a Japanese course, and the guy who's teaching it is pretty cool, but I don't think anything he taught us was even remotely right.

Fight! (Non-lucid)

★★★★☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







It's another Bleach style dream. However, there are no real characters from the show. To prepare for a final battle I go around fighting in order to establish my skill as a combatant. I spend the entire dream fighting things like Hollow and Arrancar. It was fun, but the final battle never happened.

Guitar Hero Duo (Non-lucid)

★★★★☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







I was at a gig that a popular group was doing. They were putting together a Guitar Hero Band for the latest game featuring their music. I end up volunteering for the guitar spot, but it's a toss up between me and this other guy, who just started playing the game a week ago, but has shown ridiculous growth in skill. We have a face off. We're playing Cliffs of Dover, I'm doing great, but my guitar is having double strum issues. I mention it, and they check it out before agreeing with me and giving me a new controller. But instead of just a normal face-off, the guy and I decide to travel around playing at various venues nationwide, improving our skills as we go. We get better and better before, eventually, we decide to both play guitar in the band.

Resident Halo (Non-lucid)

★★★★☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







I'm playing matchmaking in Halo 3. I'm at my former skill level, but there are these new setting that allow you to set your difficulty. At Very Hard, you do less damage and are much easier to kill. At Very Easy you deal a bit more damage and it takes a lot to kill you. I'm playing with my skill set to Very Hard, but most people are playing on Very Easy. I'm wiping the floor with everyone, and continue to do so until the dream suddenly turns into a zombie dream.

I give the shotgun to a friend and elect to use a Katana to cut down any zombies in my path. We end up in the building's Hospital Ward, which before long is overflowing with zombies. I'm slashing away, holding up the rear as our group makes it to the stairs that lead outside. I jump down the stairs entire flights at a time, as they wind down ever closer to the outside world. A zombie is waiting in ambush as I head outside, but a sword lodged in his brain stops him dead. In the end, once we reach a grassy hill, it turns out the whole thing was just a simulation and we didn't have anything to worry about. All of a sudden, someone in the group starts convulsing. Everyone looks at each other, realizing this wasn't part of the simulation. Before a real zombie outbreak can start, though, I wake myself up because I don't feel like dealing with it.

The Not So Subtle Knife (DILD)

★★★★★

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







I've lost a lot of the details involving the leadup and aftermath of this brief brush with lucidity, so bear with me.

I'm in a young girl's body, pants off, lounging on a roof overlooking campus. I'm halfway in the window and halfway out of it, just enjoying the view and the warm sun. The plot gets convoluted from here, as I start to interact with this mysterious race of anthropomorphic cats. As this happens, I gradually switch bodies until I'm in my own. One things leads to another, and, before I know it, I'm in a knife fight with one of them. He's got a brown wooden dagger, and I've got a steel single edged blade. We exchange blows, deflecting and blocking each strike. Something seems off about this fight. As I begin to realize I'm dreaming, a surge of confidence rushes through me.

He slashes at me. I keep my stance, but let the blows hit, knowing he can't harm me. His blade is sharp, but all I feel are small scratches across my chest and arms. I smirk, playtime is over. I whip out a katana and start my assault. I parry his thrusts, and counter with a few solid slashes to his neck.

My katana is dull. My slashes result only in shallow scrapes. I try to sharpen it, imagining a nearby ledge to be a rotating whetstone. Sparks fly, but the fight continues and I don't get a chance to properly sharpen it. He comes at me again. I throw my useless blade aside and initiate a grapple. Disarming him, I take his dagger, still with control of his wrists, and hack off his right arm. The knife cuts beautifully through his skin and cleanly through the bone. I do the same to his left arm, leaving him helpless and unable to fight.

At this point, he turns into my mother, who complains that she won't be able to drive to get my brother from work now. Taken aback, I kinda just ignore it and leave the area. I feel as though I have to escape. More of those beings appear in the lumber yard, outside with me. They jump on oddly shaped logs which then turn into flying creatures they ride away on. As I look for one of my own, a rather large cat-man-thing on one of those creatures starts to barrel toward me. Behind a pile of large logs, I see my mount. When I make my way behind this pile, the being crashes into the pile of logs, sending them flying at me. I use TK to stop them from hitting me, but the force of the logs, and the force I used against them, pushes me violently against the fence behind me.

Pissed off now, I grab one of the huge tumbling logs. Wrapping both arms around it I swing and connect with the being's creature, smashing it down into the ground. Somehow, it gets up and starts to run away. I say something along the lines of "How dare you do that in my dream!" and pursue him on foot, dashing quickly across the sodden dirt ground. Realizing I'm not going to be catching up to him, I put the huge log under one arm and try to flip over his vehicle/creature with TK. The best I manage to do is shake it up a bit, but the guy gets away.

From there, I lost what little lucidity I had and the dream progressed into nonsensical events involving solicitors, picking my brother up from work, and my green trench coat. I kept the knife with me throughout the whole thing, though. It was a nice blade.

I remember thinking that I wish I could keep it for use in other dreams, but w/e. I mostly wrote about this one for the fight scene.

Game Night (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







Good night for dreaming, bad night for recall.

Fragmented Dream: Crappy Wizards

★★★★☆

I'm in a Gauntlet/D&D style RPG with some friends. I'm playing the wizard. I had joined in midway through, as we were going about, slaughtering these creatures and gaining XP, we eventually reached a checkpoint. Everyone got an XP bonus and most of my friends were now level 5 or 6. They were all offered class upgrades, but I was stuck as a crappy level 3 wizard that could only use a bow and magic potions. The detail was nice though. The only reason I remember this one was because of the bleakness and beauty of the environment.

Fragment: Gaming with the Ex

In another game this time around, similar, but different. My Ex is playing with us, but she has to leave halfway through a mission due to some prior obligations.

Fragments From a Restless Night (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







So, I was in an accident the other day, which sucks because I had some great dreams I didn't get a chance to record. I need to start getting back on top of this. I think it has been helping for the most part. Regardless, all these were from last night.

Dream: Sligh Magic

★★★☆☆

I'm playing a game of Magic. The actual match is done using the cards, but the environment we're playing in is pretty wild. I'm on a volcano type thing. I've got a red sligh deck and my opening hand is ridonkulous, except for the fact I have no mana sources. I figure it'll be fine since I'm going second, and all I'll need is one land to dominate the game. I end up not getting a single land the entire game. . .

Dream: Forge Me a New One

★★☆☆☆

A few friends and myself are working on a joint Forging project to increase the structural integrity of an old map. I'm trying to place a particular object, but I can't find it for some reason. It turns out my friend, whose system I'm using, doesn't have access to that piece because it was a special exclusive item you either had to pay for or be given by Bungie.

Dream: Wait, How Did You Get On This Topic?

★★☆☆☆

I'm attending a class/workshop on Lucid Dreaming. It turns into a technical seminar on how to efficiently organize our school accounts for maximum software development potential.

Fragment: Not So Bad-Ass Now, Are Ya?

★★★☆☆

Using abstract methods, I'm trying to play episodes of bleach in a VLC like media player that didn't really exist. In one instance, Byakuya tries to stop me, but I kick his ass with the help of Yoruichi.

Festival! Festival! (Non-lucid)

★★★★☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







So, a majority of the details in the dreams I had last night I've lost, thanks to a rude awakening by my brother who needed a ride to work. This is a shame because there were two dreams that were a lot of fun.

I can't recall the details, but for some reason my father was messing around, and wasn't letting me into the hybrid. We were in a place that seemed to be a mixture of a European touristy city and Baltimore's Inner Harbor. My dad took off, leaving the window open and me holding on. I tried to keep up with the outrageously slow speeds the hybrid is capable of, but was tiring out quickly. This triggered a dream reflex and I started Hovering, which allowed me to easily keep up, and get an amazing view of the moonlit water and hotels and the festival that was going on.

Unfortunately, that's all I can remember of that dream.

Flying Feces (Non-lucid)

★★★★☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







The next full dream I can recall was a good one.

Some scientists were conducting experiments in order to better understand consciousness and the idea of self. I was their subject. I didn't know it at the time, but I was a clone. Newly created, devoid of any previous experience or thought. An empty shell. As they went ahead with their experimentation, I wondered what they were testing me for. I caught bits and pieces of what they were discussing, and thought, why do they need to know if I'm me, I am me. At 'I am me', realization washed over me. I became fully conscious, not lucid mind you, but aware enough to break free of my restraints, and Fly out of the facility.

As I flew around, just generally enjoying myself, the dream progressed. I found out that I was in fact a clone, and that the person they had cloned me from was very rich and currently in a coma. Close to death, he had a fiance who was going to get everything. She didn't even love the man, so I took his place, feigned a miraculous recovery, and proceeded to teach her a lesson. It ended with her jumping into an open sewer line that was filled with liquefied feces and other excrement. I'm pretty sure she drowned, but my brother woke me before I could find out.

But, Officer, I'm Telling You The Truth! (Non-lucid)

★☆☆☆☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I go into the grocery store to pick up a pack of gum I bought a few days ago. Security thinks I'm shoplifting and take me to see the manager. I'm unable to produce a valid receipt, and I'm completely broke, so in order to pay for it he gives me a job.

This was the most interesting thing that happened, which is really sad. I had something resembling a lucid at the beginning of the night. It was an amazing experience, but I'm not entirely sure it was a dream, so I don't want to count it as such. . .

01-19-2010 The Great Diverge

wrote this dream in two parts:
pt 1: http://dreamviews.com/community/show...&postcount=348

pt2: http://dreamviews.com/community/show...&postcount=351

The great diverge

I don't know where to start with this one.

I was sliding down a water slide. I reached the bottom and instead of splashing into the water I was suddenly in my room on my dream laptop.
I was readinga message from Leo Zumi? That name was familiar. but not correct. The last name was off. Zagumi perhaps? no. Zagami. YeS LEO ZAGAMI! His message was hard to read. Damn dream words anyway. All i made out was "Under Attack". Under attack? who? him? or me?

I found myself floating above outside a mall. 3 Women were standing in a triangle holding hands. I wondered what they were doing. As I was thinking this I was walking down a hallway in my house My mother was standing by the garage door which was also a bathroom. She yelled Inanities at me as i walked by. I stepped into the garage/bathroom. I went to the mirror and opened it. I didn't feel like looking at myself right now. I grabbed my toothbrush. I looked around the rest of the small shelves behind the mirror.
No toothpaste. I closed the mirror and looked on the counter by the sink. Still no toothpaste. fuck it I thought and splashed water on my toothbrush. I'll bear the pain of no toothpaste. I began brushing. it was uncomfortable. At least i was getting the scum off... My dentist would be happy at least. I looked up at the mirror. I was hoping the scum on my front teeth was gone. But i wasn't looking at my reflection.

I saw my laptop. I was sitting there at my laptop. Forget Leo's message I thought, i better check Mortal Mist and See if The Cusp Remembered my dream about him. maybe it was a mutual dream?
I went to his DJ. He indeed had an entry about me. it read "I talked with Man of Shred in a dream. he had a lot of bogus ideas. him and his dreamshare crew are a bunch of idiots". At least he remembered the dream... as for the rest. what a prick. Fuck it. I'll add it to the dreamshare thread anyway.

I was looking down at the outdoor mall scene again. The 3 women were standing in a triangle holding hands. I saw two people approach them. There were leaves swirling around the two people. the leaves turned into mist. They looked familiar. but i couldn't put a finger on it. It was a man and a woman. The woman grabbed one of the 3 women by the arm and tugged them tightly. The woman in the triangle wouldn't budge. The woman who was pulling said to the man. "He's caught in a love triangle he can't get out of." him I thought... Those are all women...

My perception of the event change. I saw myself, Asuka, and Sydney sitting in the hallway by the garage door from the inside all holding hands with their eyes shut.. The door was left open.
That's right! I thought. I had invited Sydney to my house before i fell asleep so that me, her and, Asuka could share energies to create an inner dream!... then why was i floating above them?

I was in my garage/bathroom brushing my teeth. I saw something in my perphials. I looked to the door that entered the house I saw clouds of dark energy seeping into the garage. A voice in my head sounded. it said "Vex is wanting to dream with you again... she has questions."

"Not now" I said to the voice speaking to me. "I don't want to expose her to dark energy. Critical stage... Dark energy would ruin it... Wait a minute... Why was there Dark energy in my inner world?"

I was floating above myself, Asuka and Sydney. I saw two dark specters surrounding them. Sydey had created a tight forcefield around us, combining our energies, to keep the dark energy out. There wasn't too much dark energy surrounding the two people tho. I could make them out. It was A and P. My Old foes. I floated as a point of conciousness into the garage where myeself was stinding at the mirror brushing. I entered his body. I was now staring at the garage door where A and P were trying to pull me from the dream triangle. A said "They are creating a strong forcefield. I can't pullthem from the triangle."

"HEY!" I shouted at them. They Turned and looked at me. A did a double take... "WHADDYA THIK YOU"RE DOING?" I yelled at her.

"You fucking Bastard!" A screamed at me.Her and P then charged at me.
We then had begun something like a Kung fu fight in my garage. Our arms sped up faster than the eye could see.

But she had not charged at me at all. She was still standing there....
WTF?!?!?!?

"You've Got no Fucking right!" she yelled at me.

"No, YOU'VE got no right coming into MY HOUSE and MY DREAM. Especially when I told you a bazzilion times to stay the hell out! That Child Sydney is already stronger than you. You can't even get through her force field. It's Game over... Now LEAVE!" I said. I was getting angry. VERY ANGRY!

"No!" She yelled like a 4 year old having a Temper Tantrum. "You're hurting her. You're doing things to her... Worse than a snuff film!" She stammered.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I said. "Look at her." A was Still transfixed on me. "LOOK AT HER!" I yelled. at A. "Does she look like she's being harmed in any way?"

A looked confused. "What are you doing there?" she asked indicating to the three of us sitting in a circle.

"We're creating an inner dream." I said. " I thought i had told you about that before... and BTW Before YOU showed up we were all dreaming about being at a Waterpark..."

" BULLSHIT!" She yelled again. "You're doing MORE than that."

"That's true." I said. "All three of us Are sharing our energy. It helps her get stronger... you know that. It helps my recall at times. Nothing wrong is going on at all. Asuka is sharing her Energy. Raven once joined in as well. Now Why are so fixated on me still? Is it Really about her?"

"It's true, He's helping me" Sydney chimed in while she briefly broke out of trance.

It looked like A was about to say something but she knew she was beat. But she Was stubborn. I cut her off and went into a rant. " BY THE WAY. I know for a Fact that she doesn't like P."

"THAT'S RIGHT" Sydney Chimed in again.

" And did you know that for a while. P unknowingly created his own false image of Sydney in his own inner world for a while and didn't know? That's right the one that he thought was confusing me with him." I put my hand over my mouth concealing a laugh."There's NO FUCKING WAY. anyone could confuse me with him. That would be like confusing a Toad with a Swan. You say That I am hurting her. I ask you to look at her again. When she was released from you she looked like a malnourished five year old. After a few months of my 'hurting her' She looks as healthy as ever. Her dreambody looks like she's pushing 10 years of age now."

both A and P were both shaking with rage. I knew they were about to attack. "You got no Fucking right" A yelled again. but her words sounded empty. I made a pushing gesture with my hands and transparent Vectors shot out from each hand. The ends went into A and P foreheads and I lifted them from the ground.
"Now what I wanna know." I said. "Is how you got released from your prison A". The vectors began probing their minds. I was getting images of a black monster trying to penetrate a shield with A encased inside. The black monster was now talking to Remote viewers. The same ones that had been harassing me and the rest of my dreaming crew.
"so that's it. I said. "P made a deal with the Templars and they helped him get you released. Of course! It's what i put in my laptop. It all makes sense now." I then was reminded of when nomad failed to read what was in my laptop, before he took the hard drive out and put it into my head in his dream. I then noticed my Vectors were feeding back to me Dark energy. I became engraged. Two more vectors came from behind my shoulders and wrapped around them both. I then grabbed a hold of the vectors with my hands and began bashing A and P around the garage.

I hit them against the ceiling, walls and concrete countless times. In another dream i was continuing the Kung fu fight. I did an overpunch at A. she blocked but i followed up with and under punch and hit her in the stomach. She held her torso and backed into the driveway. I then grabbed P's face and did a sweeping kick on him and I slammed his head on the pavement as he fell. suddenly i was still throwing them around the garage with my vectors.

I dragged them outside. Dark energy was seeping into me. Nomad just came out of a portal. He did a double take.
"DAMN YOU NOMAD!" I yelled. "If you would have just read for me what was in that laptop, instead of showing off none of this would have happened." I then threw A and P at him. He ducked out of the way.I could sense the dark energy was influencing my hatred. Just what the templard wanted. "I'll cuss you out another day nomad." And P were rolling on the ground but began to get up. "but first help me get them beyond the barrier that Raven set up." Just then a Wave emanated out of P. both him and A were floating up in the air now. The Wave hit us and knocked us back. A had thrown fireballs out of her hands and hit me. I was getting tired now. Would nomad be able to finish them off without me?

"STOP IT RIGHT THERE!" I looked up. There were two tall green elves floating just beyond the barrier that Raven had set up. It was a and P from the time of Mu. Mu P threw a kind of bubble with a chain at P. which grabbed P. Mu P pulled him beyond the barrier. they dissapeared in a pillar of yellow light. Mu A had A by the hair and yanked her beyond the barrier.
Mu A was furious. "WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO HURT HIM." She yelled. " YOU FUCKING BITCH!" Mu A yelled at A again. "Stop trying to hurt him". She told A.

"Woah." nomad said. he seemed to have recovered a bit.

"Woah is right." I told him. "I think we are witnessing the very thing that corrupted her soul... A dream time paradox of all things!" I said.

"Don't worry." Mu A said. "I'll see to it that she'll never touch you again. You won't see me here for that matter again either." Mu A zipped off with A in a pillar of yellow light.

"Sorry i yelled at you Nomad." i said. "It's the dark energy... I need healing."

the alarm clock woke me up.

here's what the vectors kind of looked like

Mysterious Majors (WILD)

★★★☆☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







This was a somewhat accidental V-WILD. I was simply trying to get back to sleep when, for some reason, I started imagining landscapes passing by at high speed. Similar to what happens when you drive, but minus the car. The visualizations became more and more vivid, and at that point I tried to throw myself into them.

I was pretty sure I was dreaming at this point, but I wanted to immerse myself more fully within the dream before attempting a goal. After what happened with those last lucids, I didn't want to blow this one the same way. I kept running within my dream in order to keep the landscape moving. I thought this might help stabilize. Trees and green fields were whizzing by in my peripherals.

Hey, was that CTB up ahead? He was motioning for me to follow. Sure, I thought, Why not? It can't hurt, right?He was running pretty fast, so to keep up speed I lifted myself off the ground and propelled through the air via Hover. Fly would be too fast for this. Soon we got to the treeline of a dark mossy forest. I had struggled to hold onto my accidental lucidity for some time now, but it was here that I lost it.

Dropping down to the ground, I followed CTB into the brush. There was a steep slippery dirt packed slope. CTB started down it, but when I followed it was like a water slide made of dirt. Slippery and impossible to stop myself from sliding down, as hard as I tried. The look in CTB's eyes were starting to unnerve me. Where was he taking me?

A short trek through the woods later and we came upon a house. It was an old house, but nothing overly creepy. CTB goes up to the door and knocks. A grizzled man comes out and asks what we want. CTB gave him some kind of code or password or something and the man's disposition changed. He becomes slightly more perturbed than he already was.

"So, you don't think any of the traditional Majors at your school are right for you? The curriculum is too drab, not exciting enough. You you want to try one of those secret Majors you've heard about through rumors. What's your Major, boy?" He demanded of CTB. CTB replied honestly, and the old man thinks for a minute before pulling a sheet out of nowhere. On it is a list of odd acronyms. He points one out in particular and describes what it would entail. This goes on for a little while, each explanation of these secret Majors bringing vivid images to mind. The dream ends before we can choose one.

I'm disappointed in my inability to DILD as of late. Every lucid in the past few months has been some kind of WILD. It's starting to piss me off a little bit. I'm gonna count this one as my 20th WILD, though, which is a good start, I guess. I still miss that month where I averaged 10 lucids a week. . . I didn't think I'd ever say this, but maybe things will get better once I head back to school, and have a more regular sleep schedule.

Ninja Buses from the Sea (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







Fragment: Bus

★★★☆☆

I'm getting off the school bus, but I don't want to. There are so many interesting characters on it.

Fragment: Ninja Warrior:

★★☆☆☆

In the final stage of Ninja Warrior, two competitors remain. Nagato, and some other dude. This season, they have both of them attempt the last obstacle at once. The other dude bails out after making a mistake, and Nagato follows suit due to comradery or something like that.

Dream: Research

★★★★☆

An interesting pond/pool has been discovered. In it lives wildlife, the likes of which have never been seen before. They exhibit new behaviors and marvelous abilities. Like a Seahorse that can fly, for instance. So, we do what any good scientists would do. We drain the water, and throw all the animals into a large cooler for further study in a more controlled environment.

Baseball, Dances, and Math (Non-lucid)

★★★☆☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







It's the top of the ninth, the score is 0-0. Two outs already on the board. I'm up to bat in a game and field that seems reminiscent of my old middle school. I start out swinging lefty, but miss the first ball. I remember that I'm a righty and step into the other box. Another swing and a miss. It's at this point I realize the bat itself has a large chunk of it broken off. I step out of the box, intending to fix this problem. I must have at some level realized I was dreaming, because all it took was a little will power and running my hands along the bat to fill in the rather large spot where the break was.

Immediately, I felt the difference in the weight of the bat. I stepped back into the batter's box. I mention that, with these new repairs, I'm 2/3 more likely to hit the ball. The pitcher, feeling my intent to knock it out of the park, walked me to first. The next batter hit a line drive through second which the second baseman missed. I somehow managed to make a run on that play. The next batter hit a home run, putting us up by three. Then we switched sides. I have no idea who got out, but w/e. They managed to get one controversial run that evoked an argument among the players and caused the game to be shut down by the person moderating it. After that, it was off to the dance.

I hate dances, so it makes sense that this next part was relatively short.

I go to the dance and enter the only open bathroom, with a classmate, at the end of the hall. Freshening up involves shaving, and dabbing my rampaging acne with a wet paper towel. When I'm done, I make my way through the throng of people. The dark atmosphere and hairdos reminded me of the late 90's. However, it isn't long before I recall I have a math quiz to get to.

The quiz is in a room from my old high school. I take a seat. And grab the stack of papers sitting there, thinking them to be the quiz. They were, but these quizes were already graded. I noticed a few hundreds, so I figured that despite my lack of studying I would be fine. I give papers back to the teacher and somehow procure a blank quiz. Let's just say when you combine simple Calculus concepts with Discrete Math concepts, and more advanced Calculus concepts, and horribly impossible questions that have no way to be solved, you get one bitch of a quiz. It didn't help that the teacher was standing over me half the time. I'm really self conscious about my Math. . .

The dream ended before I could finish the quiz.

My next dream involved some crazy mixture of Pokemon, Phantasy Star Online, traditional Japanese RPGs, and platforming. Much of it was pretty abstract, convoluted, and would be difficult to write about. So, I'm not going to.

Action Fragments (Non-lucid)

★★☆☆☆

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID







A lot of action dreams. I can't remember many of the details unfortunately. I'm pretty sure there were swords involved.

There are two dreams I want to add. First happened a while ago this year. The other one happened today.

This dream didn't last very long. But I liked it :3

I was at school and hanging out with my friends. We were all talking about something when out of no where my one of my friends came up to me and was acting a bit funny. I felt my heart racing and knew what she wanted from me. She then asked me out and I said yes. This about the time I woke up.

Now this one got me thinking. This dream happened today. I may just end up asking the girl out :3

I was in a classroom of some sort and I was standing up in front of the class with someone else. I think I was in line to ask the teacher something. Anyway, my friend (the same friend in the previous dream) asked to use the bathroom. She left for a bit and came back completely naked. Everyone was in shock. She starts walking up to me and next thing I know, she hugs me from behind and kisses me on the neck. She also said, "I like you." I snapped out of my shock and grabbed her by the arm and ran out the room. I struggled to take my jacket off while asking her questions. I can't remember everything I asked her but I think it had to do with something about why she came into the class naked.
That's about where I woke up.

I was at school with Michele and a bunch of girls, when suddenly the fire alarm went off. We all ran out, but my homeroom teacher started yelling at us to hurry up anyway. Suddenly, someone yelled "TITS!" and made the dream change.

I was still with Michele, but we were at some intersection downtown where there was a festival going on. Suddenly, three expensive looking cars pulled up. One said "Nice Tits" on the side, one said "Anal Sex" and one said "Motorola Pornography" (I have no idea, lol!). Suddenly, Michele pulled out a bazooka and shot the "Motorola Pornography" car. After it exploded, he ran away and gave me a pistol. I was suddenly thrown into a murderous rage, and ran towards the "Nice Tits" car. It was filled with strippers or Hooters girls or something wearing skimpy outfits, and I started shooting them. The car tried to drive away, but I grabbed on to the inside and killed the rest of the girls. After I got out, the "Anal Sex" car tried to run me down, but I shot out the tires. I was about to start shooting the girls inside it (who were naked) when a crowd of bystanders grabbed me and restrained me.

Suddenly the dream shifted ahead and I was in jail. A guard (who looked like my homeroom teacher) came to tell me I was going to be executed, and led me out of my cell. The jail actually looked more like a cheap motel than a jail, and was apparently in Moose Jaw. (Moose Jaw is a town in Northern Canada, for those who don't know.) I was taken to a strange indoor amusement park, where I was handcuffed to an enormous rope attached to a centrifuge. The centrifuge began to spin on an angle, sending me flying outward and rotating repeatedly. The rope was cut, and I went flying through the air. I was supposed to die, I suppose, but instead I landed on the stage of a Coldplay concert. I asked the drummer to call an ambulance, and then woke up.

Another afternoon nap -- more like an early evening nap I suppose. I actually remembered a whole scene that occurred before this scene but as part of the same dream, just prior. I decided to write this scene first because I enjoyed it more, and by the time I'd done taking notes, I couldn't remember a single thing about the prior scene.

I was in a Japanese RPG. When I say "in", it was all third person just like it would be if it were an actual game rather than a dream. It was as though I was the character rather than just controlling the character too, despite the third person nature and obvious videogame-ness of everything to follow.

Everything looked like it was drawn, but the shading was very detailed, so it was nearly real looking. It's hard to describe, but imagine anime that was shaded so well it looked almost like a photograph, except you'd know it wasn't real because of the shape of the characters and their features, etc.

Anyway I was a blue haired guy and appeared to be quite young and short.

I was very similar to young Ryu from Breath of Fire 3, except without the goofy hair and not quite so squat. It didn't occur to me in the dream though.

Me and my party were standing around waiting for a boss to show up. I got the sense we had gone through a dungeon to reach where we were and naturally expected to fight a boss. I realised we were in my secondary school's main hall, standing next to the stage. There were very large red curtains on the stage, tied back. The floor was dusty and there were brown plastic chairs arranged in rows.

I don't recall any details about the other members of my party other than there was a girl, a big guy, and someone else.

From off left of the "camera" view the boss finally appeared. Flying down towards my party out of the air. He was tall and thin. He had a metal mask covering his face. One side of the mask was white, the other was black. He wore a red suit with gold trim and his pants were tucked in to his socks, which were white. His hair was blonde and very long and flowing.

The perspective changed -- the battle was starting! I noticed now that everything had changed from the near real look of earlier to a three tone shaded anime style. However everything looked gorgeous. It's hard to describe, but everything was so crisp that despite the loss of detail in the shading it looked a lot better.

Not only had the scene detail changed, but so had I. I was now older.

I looked almost identical to Ryu from Breath of Fire 4. It didn't occur to me in the dream though.

I got the sense that my companions were also older, but still couldn't recall any details about them.

There was a menu on screen, just like a Japanese RPG. The perspective had switched to be behind my party. The battle system was the same as Final Fantasy XIII. I was distracted by the fact that everything had changed, and was marvelling a bit at it.

I started to select skills from the menu and realised I had a new skill called "Long Swing" or "Long Reach", I'm a bit confused which or if it was changing between both. Anyway, I remembered that I couldn't learn the skill before because I was too short.

Damn! I had taken too long not paying attention to the battle and my party was losing HP fast. I remember thinking something along the lines of that's what you get when you get distracted in RPGs that aren't turn based. Then I woke.[/QUOTE]

This new Dream Journal system seems pretty cool. Time to test it out by posting a couple of my favorite dreams.

"Don't go out there...please..."

Now this was a pretty sweet dream, or was it a nightmare?

Right so, was a girl in this dream. It started off with me and this girl inside this small room. She pointed to a door and told me not to go out there. I didn't ask why. Also, it was set in the future, I say this because there were these little robots. Like cleaning robots and helper robots. They didn't play much of a role though...

Anyway, we were in this room. After she told me not to leave, we just kind of sat around and talked and read books. That all went by fast though, like in a movie. Then we sat next to each other and we did something (I think I accidentally touched her boob) and then we started to have sex. This also went by fast, and after it was over with I fell asleep inside the dream.

When I awoke, the door was opened, and she was gone. I looked out the door into a hallway that was made of like bathroom tiles. The only light that was in the hallway was coming from the room I was in. I somehow obtained a flashlight. I wanted to find my female friend, so I turned on my light and headed out. I entered a room that looked like a small kitchen (like the ones in restaurants). The place was a mess. Like someone wrecked it. The place was all grimy and messy.

Everything was dark and scary, but I kept going forward. Then I heard a small crash behind me. I flung around and there was a small cleaning robot thing that ran into a bucket. I guess it was following me.

I turned around and looked around the kitchen some more. I turned around and noticed some blood on the walls and floor leading out of the kitchen.

Unfortunately, I woke up after this. I wanted to find my female friend

Honestly wish this dream lasted longer.

Dream 1 - Screw you Santa

I woke up in bed, except everything in my room was laid out differently. I turned over in bed and felt the back of my head. There was coal coming out of it. I had a lump of coal in my hand that had somehow come out of the back of my head. I recall it being extremely detailed, and I studied it for several seconds. Feeling sleepy I placed the coal on the table, turned back over and went to sleep.

I think my dream went on to be myself fighting Adamantoises in Final Fantasy XIII, but it's just a flash and I can't recall more than that.

Dream 2 - The Stargate Killer

I was a sheriff in a small American town. I was walking though a forest with some deputies. There had been a murder.

There was a file sent to us by the killer with all the victims listed in the order he/she intended to kill them. Their faces were all blacked out and the only thing showing was the top of their heads. Their hair had been edited in the photos to look white.

I was able to work out that some of the victims in the file were Stargate characters -- so assumed they all were. The next closest in line that I could identify was the character Jack O'Neill. I wasn't sure if it was the character at first or the actor, Richard Dean Anderson.

Turns out it was the character because I was talking to him, trying to convince him he needed protection from the killer. He didn't see how he was in any danger, so told me to get lost.
