non-lucid

I'm driving a car following my dad who is in another car. We are driving down a street and he's about a quarter mile further up the road. I see him do a weird turn and he heads off to the right. Once I make it to where he turned, I see that it's a railroad crossing. The first crossing is fine but there's a second one with lights flashing for an incoming train and a busy road right on the other side of it. I have to wait for traffic to clear before pulling out and through the crossing. I feel like I'm playing Frogger as I pass over the oncoming traffic from the left, but have to wait in the middle of the road for traffic from the right to clear. After crossing, I end up in a tight parking lot for some kind of popup carnival.

I'm in a restaurant looking for a specific guy that bought be some food before and now I want to give him some food too. I'm carrying the plate when I find him just sitting down at a table. It looks like his girlfriend is also with him as I come up to the table and offer the plate to him. He declines it though, probably because of the girl sitting there, so I walk away with the food still in hand.

One night I made the mistake of watching an insideous movie before bed.

Jamie

Just a dream of Jamie getting dragged away screaming in a black place by the monster guy from the movies behind the red door.


Well damn. Now I have to be careful what I watch?


Jamie 2

Sex related dream. I won't go into details.

Apparently Raven dreamed of me Jamie with Jesus in a garden. Now why can't I remember that?

In the dream, my ex boyfriend and I were still in college and having to travel between dorms to visit each other, since we were long distance. He had roommates and I didn’t so he came to me more often, but when he’d come here we’d stay at like a little hotel room in my city instead of my dorm. I’m not sure why, dream logic I suppose. And I felt bad that he had to come all this way but we didn’t want to annoy his roommates by me being there too much. We were dating in the dream. Pic attached is from dream 1.

DREAM 2
My friend and I were hanging out with her bf but she was telling me something about her 2 exes Devon and someone else who’s name I can’t remember but I had talked to both of them previously, like talking stage talked. Devon was one of them, I actually talked to this guy irl but my friend never did. In the dream I remember telling her that I used to have a crush on him and she said she knew. We were driving and pulled up to a neighborhood in a bad side of town and there was a gate which was very creepy and had locks on it and it was dark and gloomy and foggy out and I was getting creeped out. I refused to get out of the car and she was trying to unlock the gate but did not have a key

Fragment 1: Falling


My Aunt getting out of a car and falling. (I’m not going to claim this one for the competition, because my aunt is suffering from dementia and I don’t want to capitalize on that for points).

Dream 1:

There is a place that I’m supposed to go to. It’s up a hill some ways. I go up this hill, and come across a patch of mud. Apparently, this is where Mark Twain, or maybe Tom Sawyer, used to play in the mud. There is a statue nearby, I think. I keep on going, and start looking for an apartment. On the way I pass a bank. In this reality, people have jobs where they go to an office and watch banks through these special viewers that look like periscopes. I wonder what it would be like to have to sit there all day looking into the viewer thing, and not really being able to appreciate your surroundings.
I reach the apartment. Here, I’m supposed to pick up mail, or something.

Later, it seems that I’m shopping for a gift for someone. Maybe my grandmother. I go to a shop where they have those gift sets of various foods – the sort of thing that you could probably buy the individual things a lot cheaper and put them in a basket yourself. There is also cheese here, and my dream focuses more on the cheese. They have it cut in sections and sitting out, kind of looking like the are offering free samples. I’m not exactly sure if that’s what they are doing, but I take a couple of pieces anyway and start munching on them.

Outside in the street, there are a couple of people around that seem a little sketchy…

…I get involved with some kind of plot. I’m supposed to wear an entirely black set of clothes – everything including the underwear is black, I think. There is a nice banquet, and a suave man sort of like David Niven. This might be my boss in the plot. It’s quite spy-like, but more sinister I think. I’m supposed to change into the black clothes to do whatever it is I’m supposed to do. I go into a sort of closet-like antechamber that leads into my own room. The door is shut and it’s pitch black. But I think maybe I shouldn’t change into the clothes. I enter into my room instead, while the man stands outside wondering if I’m changed yet. Then he starts to come in. I look around for the clothes, but they have disappeared. It seems that they weren’t meant for me.


4/20/25


Fragment 1:

In an apartment or a room in a house. This might be a place where I will be staying. There are two doors in the room. We know where one of them leads, but we aren’t sure where the other one leads. Opening it, we see that it leads to the roof.


Fragment 2:

Taking a shower. There is some whitish stuff, like shaving cream or whipped cream, that gets on me while showering. By the end, I’m in my clothes, which are dry, except for some of the white stuff.

Fragment 3:

My pot of Mugwort has a couple of stalks growing in it.

Fragment 4:

At UA, in the Shrank stairwell.

Fragment 5:

Shopping in a store. There is a TV show with some sports thing on it. My mother is sitting at a table off to my right. I go browsing down the aisles, until I come to a section selling women’s underwear. Then I turn around, trying to listen to the TV as I go along.

Dream 1
I was in a car with a girl who was just on a date with someone who looked different than she expected. We're taking her home but suddenly she's the driver. She speeds and other drivers try to crash into her but she literally drops bombs and blows them up. Eventually she's pulled over by the cops. She's wearing pink and has a dog. The cops take her dog since she's going to prison but she's cooperative.

After that I'm immediately on the street near a roundabout going to the gym holding two pillows? But then I go to the club instead. My boyfriend had just dumped me so I was all dressed up. When I get there, he's there and I can barely walk but my friend drags me along. I'm high school age at this point. We dance to My Love by Route 94. My ex comes in and I ask them to put the original song on, not the dumb sped up version. I turn off the light. My ex looks remorseful and my friend and I turn on mean girl mode and laugh at his shoes.

Dream 2
My mum and grandma's gift to me is my phone updated to the new OS and I get super mad bc I hate the new iphone OS and it's awful photos app. I'm so angry that I crash out and throw it against the wall and break it in two. My grandma's apartment is switched a bit so I can't go out to the balcony. In other dreams I usually jump from it to escape.

I then get really sad for overreacting and I feel sad for my phone which has stuck by me for years. I find my cousin's white blackberry phone and she's left a voice note about how she can't turn it off (electronics just can't turn off in my dreams). A video editing app is open and it has a pink and mint theme, there's an edit there from 2004 when I was 7 years old and I tell a lady next to me that my friend at that time were 1 (exaggerated, they were 11). I sigh at how they're probably 37 now.

My phone is then magically fixed but is white. I cry and hug it and apologize to it. I shouldn't have overreacted about a gift, I hurt my family and my phone over literally nothing. They calm me down and I ask how tf it manifested itself back to fixed. The lady next to me leads me to a conspiracy podcast, she's the host. We go on a roadtrip but she pees herself and I send her to a river to wash up.

Seriously wtf was this dream. My poor phone. My dreams love to turn me into a monster.

Dream 3
I'm taken by some group similar to the Kingsmen. On the first day the bus drives off a ledge and into the ocean and they pull my parachute at the last moment. I lose my shoes and some jewelry. I keep losing stuff and also they took some when I arrived.

I'm cleaning up in the bathroom after that swim and some creep comes up to me but a blonde girl saves me by mocking him. I thank her and we become friends.

We then go on a shopping trip and there's an older guy (he's an actor irl I know who he is but I can't find his name). He's wearing a black and yellow leather jacket. I want to ask him where it's from. I ask him if they store our lost stuff anywhere. He says no, I just jumped in 15 feet of water, that stuff is gone, ofc I lost my shoes and my rings. I start crying when I see I've lost my rings on my left hand. They feel sad for me and start looking for them. We find two big silver rings but they're too big and heavy so I give them to the older guy and say they must be his. I sus out he probably dropped them so I could have them and feel better.

Then we go back to base and my grandma is there with a red bday card I lost. I hug her and cry. It turns out she find a lot of my lost things. The card has a piece of paper in it that compares my features from that reality to another reality.

--

A lot of crying and drama going on. Seriously, dreams, stop making me so awful and such a crybaby.

This time, meditated BEFORE going to bed, and didn't try WILD. Worked out well since I didn't have trouble falling asleep this time. Had another false awakening that I still didn't manage to catch. Never had this much FAs in my life

Simon Cowell beatbox



Simon Cowell (he has a beatbox name), with only one arm left, is number 1 in the GBB25: World League solo wildcards, he's beatboxing on the GBB stage with a can of food intead of the mic (holding it with his right shoulder, where he lost his arm), the audience loves his performance.

Minecraft villager pain

With friends, I hear a sound that reminds me of a Minecraft villager in pain. I tell my friends, but they don't care, so I look for the sound on the internet. A video of a villager in lava. I finally find one with the sound I'm looking for.

(FA)

*false awakening* I write down my dreams in the notes app.

Almost stuck

In a patch of water, maybe a pond, I'm in a swimsuit or swimming shorts. I join my mom, my sister and her 3 year-old daughter (who's starting to walk) at the beach. The child is running around, and almost gets stuck between the iron bars of a chair without a seat, but we let her get out on her own so she can learn to fend for herself.

1. (Fragment) I was waiting in a line somewhere.
2. Woke up, couldn't recall anything, decided to write down "No recall" in order to keep the habit going. It should be automatic anytime I wake up.
3. (Fragment) Man, that Disney trip I took earlier this month must've really permeated into my subconscious. I dreamed that I was at the Disney parks buying merch. In parentheses, I have written (x2-3). I do not remember what this means.
4. Full Lucid DILD: Here we go. I woke up at 5 AM, but my alarm wasn't until 5:15 AM, so I went back to sleep and immediately slipped into this dream.

Started out non-lucid. I was walking around San Diego, carrying a large body pillow with an anthropomorphic character on it. I was feeling rather self-conscious, like WHY do I have this and WHY am I walking around town with it?

A car drove by and I felt even more embarrassed, like can't I at least take this thing back to my hotel room?

Then I thought "Ah yes, I can teleport. I will teleport back to the hotel room now."

So I did.

I appeared back in the hotel room. There were bottles of lotion (of course ) and unpacked luggage in a pretty big room, and my cousin's stuff was there too. Great, so now my cousin is going to know about this giant body pillow.

I then idly realized that teleporting is not a thing that can happen in waking reality. Hmm... OH --

-- LUCIDITY.

So, my first instinct was to teleport again, onto a roller coaster. It was wooden. As I was going up the lift hill, T. was there in the seat next to me. We were not in the front seat -- closer to the back.

I then remembered -- oh yes, the competition, and my 3-step tasks! I summoned a clarinet and immediately played an F-concert scale (G Major in clarinet transposition) on the roller coaster. Then I played some random crap; I can't remember what.

My brain was not entirely clear -- I remember thinking "well I don't want to drop the clarinet off the roller coaster" but then logic snapped back into place. The scene was somewhat fuzzy, and not as vivid as I might have hoped. I was going to start stabilizing, and then figured I would try flying after I had finished on the roller coaster. But, then my alarm went off.

(It was nice and cold in my room, which is rare, because I live with my brother who is always cold, whereas I am always hot. Apparently, he finally didn't touch the thermostat. :v I think that helped a lot with my sleep quality.)
___

I also finally signed up for the DreamViews Discord server. I didn't realize we had one, even though it has presumably been linked up top for a long time. I had already hit the Nitro limit of 200 servers (thanks ADHD) but finally found an inactive one that has been mostly dead since 2021 that I didn't mind leaving.

Meditated while attempting WILD, couldn't fall asleep, ended up on my phone until 2AM... The WILD gods are stopping me from LDing...

A trip to the infirmary



I'm a cashier, a man shouts : he hurt his finger (just a small bleeding cut). I call my collegue on the phone, he tells me where the vehicle is to take the man to the infirmary : it's an electric forklift situated in a pallet with other stuff inside. A guy who works here wants to help me take the vehicle off the pallet. Then I'm in the break room, I eat chocolate pieces (easter bunny and some others)

Before my big lucid dream, I was dreaming that my company hired a growth hacker from Scandinavia and rebranded our business to be all pink. She had a lot of pets and her husky liked me. Then a massive tank or something like that rolled through and I went to hide under my bed (bc surprise surprise, every dream takes place in my apartment ).

I woke up, entered sleep paralysis, and witnessed for the first time my desired dream scene LOADING in front of me. It worked like how a printer does - loaded in from the left to the right, and each turn made it clearer and clearer until I was fully in the scene. I was in a beach house. It felt so real that I was disappointed when I did a reality check and realised it was a dream.

I went outside to explore. The garden looked like my parents' garden. Although the dream was stable, I literally licked the brick wall to stabilise myself and it worked. I saw a man in the garden and turns out he was my dream boyfriend (why do my dreams always assign me boyfriends smh). I said hello to him and told him I'd speak to him shortly as I needed to complete my second dream task - partial transformation. I looked in my reflection in the window and saw my skin become more tan and my eyes turn green. Satisfied with that, I needed to complete my third task - teleporting.

However, my dream boyfriend wanted to chat to me and came up to me with some eggs. He started asking me if I knew that his ex cheated on him and I launched into this very deep speech about how you trust someone with no exceptions until they do something then you never trust them with no exceptions. Satisfied, he let me attempt to teleport. I held his hand for moral support and asked him to help me. He was confused but supportive. I affirmed I'd teleport to the void, and I did enter darkness, but really it was just me waking up and seeing the blackness behind my closed eyes.

Image (I was happier than this in the dream but chat gpt is not being cooperative today):

I'm at a small airport in some kind of tropical place. I'm leaving to go back home and trying to find the correct gate for my flight. Everything is fixed, that is, each gate is set permanently for where a flight is going to and have the city names printed on placards above each one. The airport is also divided into different sections for different airlines. I walk to the section where I came from but it's not the correct place for me now since I have a layover somewhere else going home.

All right, here we go. Only non-lucids, I fear.

1. This squirrel would hang out with us. Some sort of magical enchantment or technology had caused him to be able to talk with us. He talked and pretended to not be able to around strangers. He would also steal your sweets as you were eating them.

Now, if another animal was reported to be able to talk, he would be extremely skeptical about this. Like nope, I'm the only talking animal around here.

2. Hypnagogic imagery. After waking up in the middle of the night and starting to fall back asleep, my brain repeating the following phrase: "We don't need to have the perfect family to talk. We just need a pair of tongs." It was accompanied by the sound of someone clicking tongs together.

Oddly ominous. Or maybe I was just hungry for BBQ.

3. Illegible/gibberish. I fear I'm not gonna be able to count that.

4. Illegible/gibberish. What happens is sometimes when I am really tired waking up at night I think "no I must record!" and so I do but I fall asleep and my hand keeps writing gibberish. Well, it was worth a shot.

Recalled 3 dreams last night!

Dream one
I was in my apartment and one guy had also moved in because it was somehow legal for other people to buy part of your house without your permission and move in. I was angry that I had to be around someone constantly because my place is small, and I had to be super clean and do all the chores immediately to not get judged. I didn't even talk to him I was so mad. People were staring at me from the balcony across my place. Eventually we started chatting and became friends. It turned out he was a lyricist for Katy Perry lmao.

Dream 2
Again my apartment. I was listening to a track and made fun of it for sounding like it was made in Garageband. Then my cat spilled ketchup everywhere and scared me.

Dream 3
Some crazy man abducted me in my own apartment with his cat (which turned out to be my own cat) and told me we can only leave if we use a method of "spirulization" which involved using cones and spirals. I made my two cats a cone to drink water out of. We somehow manage to leave with a bunch of other people but he says he'll shoot us if we call the police or my dream boyfriend. It also turns out said dream boyfriend was a real estate social media influencer.

Dream fragment
I was going through people's instagrams from my old school and saw a post from 2016 even though it would've been 2011 at the time and it was of a song someone made in Spanish class.

-

All these dreams set in my apartment and I still didn't sus out I was dreaming!

Fragment 1 (0.5):

There is a cake, or a pie. Lots of whipped cream on it. People are getting pied in the face.

Fragment 2 (0.5):


My grandfather's oxygen tanks. He has been tired lately, and I see that his oxygen is not hooked up. I think maybe that's why he has been so tired.

Dream 1: Airport mall (1 point)

I’m with some people, in a sort of mall-like place. We stop somewhere, and I see that nearby is a kiosk where some people from India or another part of Asia have been taking pictures and filming things to put online. I think they are somewhat popular on the internet. I want to go over and look more closely, but there are clear plastic sheets hanging from the ceiling as a sort of partition. There are low openings in the partition, that I could duck through. I make it to the other side, seeing that there are other people there. Then I get the idea that I’m not supposed to be there. It’s like an air force base, or an airport on the other side of security. I try to find a way back to where I was without getting in trouble. I succeed in this, by going through a door nearby (which might lead into a coffee shop).

4/17/25 (17.5 points)

Fragment 1: Worms (0.5 point)

There are some large worms somewhere. I’m standing there, seeing them.

Dream 1: Christmas and the First of the 3-Step Tasks (Lucid) [17 points]


I stop in to a store. They sell a variety of items there, and I like to visit them around Christmas. I tell them so, and it seems that I have been stopping there quite frequently. I think I leave this store, and start going somewhere. I might be following some people in cars, or something. We go down towards maybe a restaurant, and are either looking for a place to park or are trying to follow a road that goes this way. It seems kind of difficult to get through. I think I turn around at some point, and find myself moving along straddling a screwdriver as though it were a flying broomstick. Remembering previous lucid dreams, I think perhaps I can fly on this. At this point I realize that I have been assuming that I am dreaming, somehow becoming spontaneously lucid without realizing it, I guess [+ 10 points]. I think about the competition, and whether or not I should fly. I think instead I should focus on the 3-step task. My first step was to “interact with a DC”. I reach out and grab some nearby woman by the shoulder and say something like “hey, how’s it going?” She turns around [+2 points for interaction, +5 points for first of 3-step task], but then I start to lose the dream (or think I’m losing it anyway).

4/18/25 (18 points)

Dream 1: Miller Hall (1 point)

Walking along a college campus from a school I went to. I come across a building that in waking life was torn down several years ago. Apparently, they haven’t torn it down yet, and are letting people take things from the building. I go inside, mostly to see the place where I had some of my first classes as a Freshman. They seem to have changed it around a little, with the classrooms opening into the main hallway area, which is pretty wide. The hallway area has pew-like benches lined up for people to sit in. I go to a room to my right, I think (where, years ago, they were giving away a lot of geologic specimens). There are a bunch of wood and glass cases – small, maybe two or three times the size of a cigar box, and opening from the top. People are carrying these out. I ask what they are doing with them, and they say they will just throw them away if nobody takes them. These look like antiques to me, and are nice looking anyway. Some of them have old books in them. I am told we can take whatever we want from the building. I think that it will be fun to “loot” the building.

Dream 2: Water (1 point)

I go down to the basement of one of the houses I used to live in. There is water coming out of a kind of pillar. I think that this might somehow be related to God, maybe. Something about an apostle in the New Testament being washed, and this is the kind of water one could be washed in. I get the feeling that one could be made holy by this water. I start splashing myself with it, and then stand under it. But then it seems that this might just have been a shower installed in the basement. My Dad is around somewhere.

Fragment 1: Hospital Visit (0.5 point)

My grandfather is in the hospital. Family is going to visit him. I can see them – my aunt, I think, and a bunch of kids – on a digital picture frame or something.

Dream 3: Snake on a leash (1 point)

Some kind of class. We go out to do things in a large valley/drained lake. They don’t want us to get too far away, but they don’t mind if students are being carried by large birds. I have one of these large birds, but as I go it becomes a snake. The snake goes pretty fast, and seems to glide sometimes. We go along the hillside and I think this might lead into another dream scene in which I’m supposed to be photographing a woman in different locations. She goes down into a sort of pool of water, and I’m supposed to stand on a hill or balcony above her and take pictures. I’m having difficulty adjusting the camera so that it will photograph her, and I get the idea that I’m not supposed to change the setup of the camera. I move closer to the edge and try to angle the camera down, but then some sort of dignitary shows up. I think there are a bunch of people too, and they all block my view. Eventually, I go down to where the woman is, making my way through a sort of gym to get there. I set up the camera there. This seems to be a really sketchy photo/film studio. People appear to be filming pornographic scenes around us. We carry on as though this is normal.

Dream 4: Climbing (1 point)

Trudging through mud, speculating on how they must make boots that enable people to walk through deep mud, since people apparently have done it. I get to the base of a steep hill/cliff, and start climbing up. Someone is dumping old cars down the hillside that I have to avoid. He seems skeptical that it is possible for someone to climb up the hill. I have a path figured out though, and when he isn’t dumping vehicles down the hill I make my way up. This appears to have been near where the Lord Jesus was crucified. The guy dumping vehicles thinks maybe that’s how He “got away”. I point out that it would be pretty difficult to take oneself off of a cross and then climb up a mountainside. Not only that, there was a crowd watching, and it seems like someone would have noticed.

Fragment 2: Lucidlet [10 points]

Walking down a hill. Something makes me think I should do a RC, and I try to count my fingers. Sure enough, I get 7 or so on my left hand. I think I become lucid here, but the dream seems to end soon after.

Fragment 3: Painting (0.5 point)

A guy with a large painting on his wall. It’s pretty nice. He himself is an artist, but he didn’t paint this. He does modify it, however. It is a painting of a large Arabic-style door. He paints another door behind it, and himself in between the doors. But the painting of himself is somewhat cartoonish. Then he makes some more alterations, and the door now looks out into a cyberpunk nightscape.

Dream 4: 20’s party (1 point)

I’m doing archaeology in a town. I find a structure, and start flagging it out.

I have obtained an invitation to a party. The invitation appears to be something like three envelopes inside a bag or a larger envelope. This gives me admittance into a party in someone’s house. The party seems to be 1920s themed, and they have a record and record player with 20s jazz music. People are dressed in 20’s attire. I go inside, but I seem to be a little early. This might give me an opportunity to trim my facial hair, so I find a bathroom nearby. There is someone else in there shaving. I find a mirror and start shaving as well. My face has a lot of beard stubble, and as I look closer it seems that I also have daffodils growing out of my face. But when I look again I mostly just look like I have some beard stubble.

Dream 5: Thrift Store Meeting (1 point)

Walking through a thrift store near where my grandmother lives. I decide to go check out the bargain section, and then head to another section. I think I’m looking for games. On the way, I see the headmaster from my old high school. I don’t know if he recognizes me, and I kind of awkwardly try to avoid him while wondering if I should get his attention. Then I hear my brother, and realize that they are together. We end up meeting. The headmaster seems to be carrying fragments of a broken mug. We get to talking, and he seems to want to direct me to a job opportunity. But it’s not a temporary job, he says. The job has to do with a married couple in the Philippines. They might want a married couple to hire, actually. My mother shows up, and we aren’t sure if the headmaster is trying to fix me up with a girl from the Philippines with this job opportunity. I’m looking at pictures of this, and there are other pictures. I think I’m hoping my mother won’t think I’m just looking at women on a dating site.

Fragment 4: Gas (0.5 point)

A man and a woman were sharing a bed (not sure they were a couple, they were just in the bed). The woman is sitting on the edge of the bed, and the
man has just woken up. Apparently he has passed gas, and it was so bad that he woke himself up and drove the woman out of bed.

Fragment 5: Spaceship (0.5 point)

Something about a spaceship. It might be under attack. I think it’s a video game, and I leave it for a while and then come back to find that the ship is OK. It had been going really fast – way too fast, I guess.

Dream:
I'm on the back of a motorcycle, Ruben is driving. At some point a turn doesn't work out and we glide farrr. Ruben ends up getting electrocuted by some pole he falls at and pisses on himself???? to stop the electrocution?? I kinda try to get him away from there without touching him. Later Im at my dorm but I have a balcony now there's a party right next door I talk with those people I know some from uni. And a friend of mine is down on the street talking to them from there.

Frag:
Something about a party going to happen in my house. There's this girl for some reason I seem acquainted with.
