non-lucid

Dreamed Chris Ballew was climbing a face of a mountain with a native of the land. Literally the part that Chris was climbing, was a human face in shape. He got to the top with help while I was seeing from his perspective, then at the top for some reason a tornado and suburban area comes to mind.

Dream 1: I was out on a small yacht in a massive storm, with lightning striking the ocean and waves rearing up to 5 metres tall.

Dream 2: I was training these 3 pet spiders I had found to dance, getting them to do a little shimmy and rewarding them when they got it right.

Fragment: I was in a building in Krokotopia.

Dream 3: I was with a friend on the street, having just bumped into him, when he told me I should stay to meet up with his other friend who I hadn't met before. I was a bit nervous but decided to stay anyway.

Dream 4: I dreamt that I had remembered other dreams and were writing them down. This tricked me into not recalling as much, missing out on like 2 dreams, because I thought I had already written them down lol. I did have a bit of latent awareness that I might have ben dreaming though, but didn't seize the opportunity.

6/5/16
Dream 1: I was sitting on a bench in a garden at university, enjoying the wind and sun.

Dream 2: I was discussing with my brother the different rarities of yugioh cards from the original sets.

5/5/16
Dream 1: I was at the MCG with a friend and we were trying to steal some huge some of money. I got the money from the safe I guess and we started walking quickly to get out of the stadium. An alarm started sounding however and we started running. We almost ran into a team of security guards but hid in a corridor before running down the stairs. We got right to the ticket gates but A guard stopped me and made me go through a scanner. As I went through I knew I was going to get caught so I burst through, pushing over a guard and started sprinting out of the grounds.

Dream 2: I was measuring my spaghetti bridge for uni, making sure it was the right size to fit.

Been having trouble remembering my dreams now that I've started working, when I'm really overtired (I was extremely fatigued all of yesterday) my dreams become more random. They seem to change scenes more often and have more abstract stuff going on that makes little sense, often with characters changing unnoticeably as well.

Dream
I remember having some random conversation with a bird and a snake, and someone else might have been there too. The bird was a bit like a pelican, and the snake wore a skin that changed its appearance. We were conversing about uhh.. Oral sex. I think someone said the pelican has the perfect mouth shape for maximum range to perform oral on the ladies, this didn't seem to make sense until I looked at its face. Its beak was practically in the shape of a vj so I was like 'hmm ok well I guess that makes sense?' (like I said, lots of random shit in dreams where I'm overtired). Eventually the pelican and snake do a sort of 'fusion' technique, the snake is sitting inside the mouth of the pelican without its skin on making him transparent. When the pelican opens its mouth it can unleash its poison attack (literally just a snake in its mouth that bites people, it's not even attached). I think there's the ocean next to us, we're inside a big room though, with a high ceiling. Something happens and now we're facing this huge giant, he reminds me of Groot but he isn't a tree at all. It keeps on growing bigger and bigger, sucking the energy out of this person who we were apparently with the whole time. It's a girl and she has a huge mana source in her, she seals it off with these bracelets to stop the world around her from absorbing her powers (from a story I was reading before bed). The Groot giant stops growing, it's a little late though since he's already like 15 metres tall -.-... We're running around trying not to die, there's something else about a crocodile that was similar to what Archer said: "Gee, I don't know, Cyril. Maybe deep down I'm afraid of any apex predator that lived through the K-T extinction. Physically unchanged for a hundred million years, because it's the perfect killing machine. A half ton of cold-blooded fury, the bite force of 20,000 Newtons, and stomach acid so strong it can dissolve bones and hoofs." I have to run up a hill (that's inside the room we're in) to get away from either the giant or crocodile. There's a lot of dinosaurs around me now, but they're super tiny. I kick one. It shoots off and hits a door on the other side of the room, I think the girl with the mana is hiding in there otherwise the giant will be able to get her mana or something. I'm at the top of the hill and I jump down back to the floor, my friend is in front of the giant now (my friend is a human that I don't recall being here before but was apparently in the story the whole time.. dream logic?). The giant attacks him, *SLAP* *SLAP* oh no! Two slaps to the face, but my friend is fine. I guess it's because the giant is smaller now? He must be running out of magic, my friend seems unphased. At some point the giant chases me, except now it's a skeleton zombie thing that apparently had both of its arms ripped off during the fight with my friend (I don't think he actually did though). He's shambling around dangerously trying to whack me with his head, mouth agape in his undead stupor.

I was subwaying around the city when I found myself at the stop near Arshia's new house. There were a bunch of hughschoolers in the line with me and they all had those little rope bracelets form summer camp, but each one was designed to show off how many times you've had sex. The kids kept asking me why I had no notches, and I said that my school didn't wear those bracelets which made everyone laugh at me. I ditched them and found Arshia's place. There I met Susannah, and I promptly asked her out. She said yes and we passionately kissed before I had to go join Arshia. His house could only be reached by walking aruond the edge of a skyscraper like the scene in the matrix where Neo climbs out on the building. The living room was all grass floor with tall white walls and the whole was was ancient persian tomes restored in brand new covers. There was another room that was like a pearl white gymnasium with a grand piano int the center, and there I found Susannah. We made out again, and then I had to leave as the apocalypse began.

Dream signs:
Arshia
Impossible structures
Susannah
Social awkwardness

Dreamt I had old boss and we were at work, but then something happened and we all had to go down a lift shaft of a building that was a very narrow tower with lift at its centre (had a dream about that before).
We went underground, all that was there was lots of wooden crates. It was weird what were we supposed to do?
We had no work to do. What would our new roles be? It seemed that we were unable to adept to our new situation...

I had a dream that I left my house sometime in the very early morning (Still very much night outside) and I drove down the highway and made a left turn and a cop was in front of me when we turned and I turned on in the wrong lane and the cop was trying to get directly right in front of me, for whatever reason I was driving using a keyboard to turn instead of the wheel and I panicked and pressed the wrong button and almost crashed, he turned his lights on and we had a long chat but he was pretty cool about it. Instead of giving me a ticket he said it would be mailed to me and he got back into his car and for some reason I just followed him to a school that he was working undercover in and he sat down next to some kids and when he saw me come it he got up and I followed him into the bathroom because I was curious about something and after I walked into the bathroom the whole room just changed into this store with a person behind the counter and there was a metal detector right in front of me, I lost interest in the cop and jumped and put both hands on the top of the metal detector and I started doing pull ups and then I switched to pull ups with only one hand and my arm got really muscly really fast and then I woke up.

First fragment

I was a thief, sneaking around a mansion and stealing gold.

Second fragment

I was standing on a balcony of a really high skyscraper. There were lots of people gathered around. I heard a speaker talking about some manifestations wandering the capital city. I've seen their tracks from the height.

Dream

I was in my school with my younger sister. We went to a grand hall where people were preparing for a big academy of some kind. We sat on the side, watching s they were dancing and singing really badly.

Two dreams that had a similar feel to them. They had a strong narrative structure and cast my dream self among the main character. Although I was not 'in control' of my dream self, but was simply observing my own exploits in a way. It was sort of like watching a TV show about myself.

The two narratives have some interesting contrast.

This country's government had been overthrown by some kind of supernatural thing, some kind of demon or something the country's secret program had been meddling with. I was in charge of escorting the princess, one of the few surviving family members, to a sacred mountain where she would be safe with her father and be able to help coordinate a counterattack. I just remember that she looked like Weiss from RWBY.

Pardon my language, but this was the biggest bitch of a dream character that I think I've ever met. My god was she annoying, and these dreams were narratives, so I didn't even have to interact with her directly. I remember we had to hike through some woods and mountains to get to where we were going. Dream time meant that it felt like hours of hiking and her whining. I remember at one point she complained that her feet hurt from the walking. I took her shoes and broke the heels off. Then she complained that I had ruined her shoes, she refused to walk anymore and told me that I had to carry her.

We had to make camp for the night. She refused to gather firewood because there were bugs on the logs. She refused to eat the fish I caught because it smelled funny and was served on a stick, but complained that she was hungry for half the night. She complained that her dress got dirty. She complained that her hair looked bad.

I eventually got fed up with her and opened a lecture on toughing things out more. She didn't want to hear it, and tried to slap me. She just became increasingly frustrated and decided that she would be better off walking to the mountain herself, in the night, alone.

*Kzzht! Laser guided karma inbound.*

Some of the demons captured her in the night. (Though I swear they were the beetle drones from Samauri Jack.) I remember she had like a fencing sabre type sword like Weiss too. She managed to fight a few of them off, but got captured.

In the morning, I awoke. I realized that she had been captured (don't know how I knew that.) and somehow made my way to the location where she was held captive. Apparently the antagonists were trying to hold her hostage and try to get a ransom out of the kingdom. I found my way there, a rocky tundra above the treeline. I ninja'd around the enemy camp and found her in a jail cell. I told her we were going to get her out. She said that she didn't need my help. So I started to leave, but then she confessed that she did need my help and broke down crying.

She managed to alert the baddies with her petty groveling. A whole horde of the beetle drones surrounded me and I fought them all. I let her out of the cell and surprise surprise she was mad at me, apparently because A.) I didn't come to rescue her fast enough. B.) I didn't let her out of the prison cell to help fight. She tried to slap me again and I blocked it and slapped her.

I basically had to scold her like a small child. (I swear her character became younger looking at this part too.) I told her that she was a princess and one day would probably be queen of her country, but she was such a disgustingly disrespectful person that she would never make a good leader. Whine Whine Whine I'm a princess everyone should care about me, the whole world revolves around me! me! me! me! I told her leaders don't just have respect by birthright, they have to earn it through noble actions.

Her father showed up. The dream broke down there or I just forgot what happened. I just remember what the father character looked like, and that he rode around on a white and gold zeppelin. He was a man of small stature, not much bigger than my dream self. He had black hair in a comb-over and a blue military outfit. He had a mustache and a sword like his daughters'. Unlike his daughter he seemed really nice and I think he told me a joke but I forgot what.

...

I remember the second dream was centric around me and Manei (my dream guide for anyone who's new). The story was that there was this forbidden Aztec temple that was said to have a treasure at the top of the pyramid. Supposedly the pyramid was cursed and someone would only be able to get the treasure if they were pure of heart or whatever.

The curse had other rules, like that only parties of two could get the treasure. If a lone wanderer came, they would be killed because they had nobody to help them, and there were some video-game style collaborative puzzles (Like two people have to pull levers at the same time to get to the next room and stuff.). If a large party came, then members would be killed off at random until there were only two left. But there was also a rule that the party of two also had to be in competition with another party of two. So actually four people were on the pyramid at one time. But they were two teams of two trying to get the treasure, climbing up from opposite sides. (Good god this is some convoluted Disney magic or something.)

I remember that the teams had signifies. Manei and I wore red and the other team wore blue.

I don't remember much of the dream, but there were three phases. Phase 1 was navigating the city ruins below the pyramid. I don't remember much of this. Pretty basic booby traps, and I think giant jungle spiders. Made it through here without any trouble.

Next we had to climb the pyramid. This part was actually a lot less challenging. I think there were big pipe holes in the side of the pyramid that boulders came out of, but (like with all aztec pyramids) there were stairs up the sides, and boulders would never come down the stairs. I think one of them rolled on its own into the side of the stairs and broke them loose.

I remember the environment shifted and the steep stairs became more like a cliff. I grabbed Manei with one hand and the rope with the other. (I don't know why we had a climbing rope on stairs, but I guess its a good thing we did.) I pulled her up. She asked why I was so committed to saving her, and I told her it was because I knew she would do the same thing for me.

We got to the top of the pyramid. Phase 3. There was a temple that we had to climb to the top of. Apparently the treasure was some gold or crystal object at the top of the temple on top of the pyramid. The temple wasn't nearly as tall but the whole outside and inside was covered in booby traps. (Hehehehe booby)

I suggested we stop and rest, but Manei insisted that we press on and just get the treasure. I told her we should probably climb up the outside of the temple. It looked dangerous, but there was no way it was AS DANGEROUS as going inside. She agreed and we started climbing the outside.

I swear the narrator said something about how Manei thought that being six foot four would help her, but apparently in this case it was a hindrance. I remember I was climbing and darts shot out from a trap in the side of the temple. I avoided them, but fell off and down about three or four stories. The platform on top of the pyramid opened and these traps opened and started catapulting rocks onto me. It was then that Manei saw she was just out of reach of the treasure, but the other team was about to get it. But instead she had to swing down on the rope and save me by disabling the trap somehow.

I remember a scene that went on for awhile. I was facing away from her and my hair was long and ragged. I turned around and said we should leave the cursed temple in a very serious tone. I remember when I turned around one side of my face was injured from the rock and it caused my eye to turn from blue to brownish orange.

Hangon; let me get this straight: My mismatched eyes, one of the most significant dream symbols I've ever had was caused because of something as mundane as a malfunctioning booby trap that threw a rock at me?

Anyways, we ended up walking back down the stairs that had been replaced. Apparently it was the nature of the curse that while people were leaving no traps would attack them.

I then remember it showed the competitors. (I swear they looked like DreamCafe and Dawn, so I'll call them that.) I remember DreamCafe look-alike took the golden balls off the top of the temple. (Thief and the Cobbler reference? Really?) But when she did they upset her balance and she fell off the temple. The weight of the golden balls she was holding crushed her and presumably killed her. They then rolled down the side of the pyramid and right into the back of a very out of place pink pickup truck. Dawn was crying but he was rich with his treasure. Apparently this was also a part of the curse. One of the people from the group would die getting the treasure and it was undecided who.

The dream went back to focusing on Manei and I walking away. I remember there was this Indiana Jones type character who wanted to go into the temple but a big waterfall pushed him out.

Narrator: "But it was then that they realized discovered the greatest treasure of all, the treasure of true friendship."

*Wakes up*

Well okay, that is the most cliched ending to any dream I think I've ever had.

Went hiking with D and a few other people. It’s a hike I recognized, wooden trail spiraling up to a platform. The wood is new. There are black labs who are scared to walk on the planks. Work keeps calling D, telling him there’s an emergency he needs to deal with but there’s nothing he can do since he's so far away. We head back down and the guy we’re with says we have to rope swing across the lake. He says it’s crucial we don’t touch the water more than necessary because ‘we would not believe what was growing in there’. I was completely confused, I don’t remember having to do this on the way up. Plus, I’m not wet and I would be if we had done this. I also am carrying a pillow that’s completely dry. I ask someone, “What did I do with this pillow last time to keep it dry?” They told me to fold it up and put it in my shirt, so I did. The guy went first and didn’t make it far before he went head first into the water. We scoffed, “so much for not touching the water.” D went second and swung out to hip height and waded to the other side. I decided to angle my swing to the left toward the land, so I got minimally wet. When I got to the other side, everyone started getting concerned because the first guy had not come up yet. D was annoyed that he was going to have to dive in and search for him, but then the other lady managed to pull him out. I was in a room and couldn’t see what was happening but D started gagging, telling me that the guy was covered in unsightly mud and disgusting debris. He was unconscious so D delegated to me to get the first aid kit. There wasn’t much in there besides IV equipment so I grabbed what I could. D wanted a 1” IV tape but I explained to him that the only reason I was able to take the 1/2” tape from the hospital is because nobody likes to use it, so that’s all we had. People start performing CPR and I leave the room to help. It’s a very disturbing sight, indeed. He looks deformed. He’s blue, has a swollen and bulging neck, and they had to cut off his fingers and toes - leaving strings of rotting flesh in place of his fingers. Someone holds him while people perform CPR. I take my turn at compressions and then he starts talking. D explains to him that he probably broke his neck. I asses his body and it’s full of gnarly wounds. They had all been exposed to bacteria. D is now at risk for catching the life threatening bacteria since he handled this guy’s blood. He’s irritated about it. I go home and have to retell the story to Mike and sob while I do. Mom says she thinks it’s her karma from frequently passing out in front of people. The girl we were with, Sarah, posts about it on DV and I comment about how painful and traumatizing it is to read and remember.

First dream

I was in my house. It was late evening, I was working on a history essay til midnight. Next day in school, that crone of history teacher didn't even wanted to check our essays and wanted to make an exam instead.

Second dream

I was a writer, writing a story for a horror movie. I've written about a zoo with deadly, mutated animals. The complex has closed down for some reason and nobody was able to leave. The only way led through crocodile pens. A group tried to escape, while manager stayed to wait until the way is open again. The group was eaten quickly by mutants, while manager was still inside, playing hide and seek with them. As I was writing, I could see everything like in a movie.

Third dream

Dark late evening. With my sister we were carving something in vegetables for a big party that she was organizing. I carved out some letters, as she wasn't able to carve properly. Then we were out of fruits and vegetables, so she left to get some. I waited and waited, a few people entered the house and told me about some horrors incoming. I noticed that doors were taken out of their hinges. I went outside and stood on stairs, watching as ominous fog was getting closer. I decided to put doors back on their hinges, but when I touched them, bought turned into day and fog disappeared. Them sister came back with others and I had to help them bring furniture inside. Next day I was working with father in his workshop, but then siblings with pals and a girl from Finland that once stayed with us when I was in a student exchange a few years ago. We were talking and laughing.

Fourth dream

I was wandering a city, heading to hospital to get some important papers from doctor. I noticed a woman really similar to my previous teacher, and she was heading to hospital too. Crossing the road I heard someone calling me, it was my sister with her classmates. We went to hospital, but there was enormous crowd and no one was able to get to a doctor. I decided to take my car and drive to her house. It was raining, doctor lived in a village inside a jungle and had a cottage made of bamboo. I entered it as doors were open and looked at a desk. At first I looked at ringing phone and saw that my mother was calling. Then I found my papers on bamboo desk. Research showed that I'm not a male, but a female. My body started shifting and I woke up.

Fragnent

I was back at drivers license course, driving around a city. I talked with someone who said that I have only an hour of driving left.

5.5.16

Slept for almost 12 hrs after having a very short sleep of only 2 hrs last time, because not being able to adapt myself from dayshift to night shift.

Felt like I was dreaming all night.

Last dream:
Long and detailed. I'm visiting with friend K in AH. We talk a lot and laugh. She mentions that we always have good times together.

I start telling her about lucid dreams and how your daytime memory is accessible so you remember a lot that you normally don't remember in dreams.

Morning of Thursday, may 5th, 2016

Survival situation where we can float on little patches of earth and also I can ride my cat high up in the air, it gets to a point where people come to us looking for water services because the group I was in could water bend and in this whole world everything revolved around water including stuff that doesn't need it in the real world. We would use the water to make us float ( standing on unstable patches of earth) After a while the people who came to us for help wanted to use water to smoke weed (yes my imagination loves to run wild with dreams, I know it doesn't make any sense but roll with it anyway) and in this universe we needed water to smoke weed but it required a large amount and we have not been able to conjure up the required amount through our water bending. I was tasked with something I cannot remember but in this world my housecat was very large in size and I was able to ride her by having the water push us up a great height and we just rode around like that and I was talking to her about what the other group wanted and I remember saying "We would need double the amount that we are riding on right now and that cannot be done.".

Driving down a winding road in a truck with some packages. Coming at me is a very large, brown, prehistoric looking spider. It’s in an 8 shape and the legs are on the front and back of its body, not the sides. It freaks me out so I swat at it but it won’t die. I learn that it’s called the Amazon spider (as in amazon.com) and hangs out in their warehouse. I get home (more like my mom’s house) and there’s a party. Donald Trump is there. I put on my shoes because I’m bored and decide to go outside to take a selfie with a giant crashed government airplane before they move it. Donald Trump bends down and starts tying my shoes for me. “Oh thank you. Could I get a picture with you?” He agrees and then hesitates. “Why do you want a picture with me? You’re only here to make fun of me.” “That’s not true! I live here. My room is right there!” I point. Really, I just wanted to share with friends and family that Donald Trump tied my shoes, because nobody would believe me otherwise. D comes just as things start falling apart. We hear that there is any army invading the other part of town and civilization starts to collapse. D has things to take care of in the house and someone asks me if I could help find certain seeds and I agree. I go to the other side of town and basically just follow this scientist around, holding items that they need to salvage before all hell breaks loose. We go into the back room of some industrial building and grab a bottle of rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush. I have to connect something to the tip of the toothbrush but I can’t because I’m shaking so bad. The political situation is worsening very quickly and I start becoming extremely upset that D and I separated. If he died while I’m gone I will never forgive myself. I would rather die with him than live without him. When we leave the room we find the building is on lockdown. All the offices are empty with the lights turned off but we hear men shouting orders in the other rooms. We quietly move through one room and hide behind a desk, looking through the glass of the door. I didn’t feel safe there and wished we were a few desks or even another room back, but we needed to see what was happening. One of the girls in the room ahead of us dropped a blue pencil and I knew that meant it was the daughter of my scientist friend. She was upset and went to save her daughter. By doing that, we learned that the invading army was a benevolent force and all of our families were safe. I was so relieved to see my husband’s face (but it wasn’t really his face). Everybody started cleaning up after all the chaos but D and I went to the gym and went swimming. I was practicing my dive, which required me to fatigue my deltoids by hanging on to the pool ladder before diving. I dove in, hit the bottom, and sprung back up in only a matter of seconds. A man said, “That was a great dive, sweetie!” D and I left to look for food. We wanted Mexican food but the best place in town was closed, so we looked around. We went to a hotel and someone we knew handed us some of our items (like area rugs) from the “drill” earlier but we just left them there.
