non-lucid

Game of Death
- My family and I were traveling in an RV when somehow all of us were kidnapped and brought to a large clearing in or by the woods. Another family was standing side by side in a straight line next to an RV, their kidnapper as well as ours standing before them. He was short, about as tall as a ten or twelve year old, his skin was pale and his eyes were icy blue while his hair was pitch black. He walked slowly by us explaining that we were gonna play a game, a game he liked to call death. I rolled my eyes and realized in a sudden panic what game he was talking about. I told him that I knew what game he was talking about. He smiled at me and the stranger at the end of the line, the youngest I beleive of the other family annoyed him so he put wires on the kid that connected to the engine of the RV. The kid was shocked and burned to crisp, when he fell down all our eyes were on our kidnapper. He smiled and said the last one living wins.
And then we were released, all of us running into the woods. As I ran I was heading to the center of the woods knowing Slenderman would be there and get me out of this, somewhere along the way I ran into two girls from the other family along with my sister. I suggested to pair up for now and they agreed but it wasn't a team of four more like just two pairs. We ran into two of the other members of their family and I was told to attack. I did, using my wooden sword but since it did no good I used my hunting knife but I couldn't make myself hurt her too bad. So I stopped. I said, "I'm sorry...I just can't."

Pixal Pixie
- I was in an online world. It started off me climbing out of a well and into a huge meadow or feild, bright orange lit up the way to go so I followed. It lead through some dark woodland, looked like the woods from the previous dream. Then into a old time town like in Lucent Hearts. The orange path shut off so I walked around a bit, seeing many people wondering the streets. Eventually the orange path lit up again, leading me over some concrete railing and onto a lower part of the town. From there into a building, I think a hotel? I was supposed to talk to a stranger with black hair and elf ears so I did but ended up chasing him out and up onto the higher level of the city. There is where I captured a small pixie that had been following him around, she looked like that one girl from Sword Art Online, the girl Kirrito treated like his own daughter.

Thankfully, I recalled a pretty good amount of a dream this morning! A very weird, kind of sensual dream at that. And it's a weekend, no less, which my recall has tended to be crappy on lately. But first, a very small fragment from when I woke up in the middle of the night:
My dog, Jesse, was tackling me and licking my face (as he does constantly IRL). However, it soon got to the point where I could no longer breathe, and I was gasping for air as Jesse continued to try to love on me. Running (or nearly running) out of breath caused me to wake up with a start, but I quickly fell back asleep to have the former, more vivid dream I mentioned.
I was at a large mansion on a school trip with a lot of classmates whom I don't actually know. There were about...40 or so of us altogether, including myself. The trip involved us going on a guided tour of the mansion. All of the students were about the same age as me.
In any case, soon after the tour started, one of the girl classmates came up to me and started whispering flirty comments into my ear. Shocked, and a little embarrassed, I turned to face her. Strangely, she did have a familiar quality about her, like I should know her from some where but in reality I don't actually know who she is. Her hair was short, messy, and light brown, and she had very fierce eyes.
I asked her why she was doing that, but I don't quite remember her response. The rest of the tour went on like this, with me trying to pay attention to the tour guide while she continually tried to seduce me, whispering comments and hugging me without anyone around us even noticing (somehow).
Eventually when the tour ended, we decided to hang out and discuss a whole number of things. As we were wrapping up this discussion, she decided to take more physical action, and pulled closer to me. I tried to pull away, and that was when my parents walked in on us and scolded me, with me being like and telling them it's not what it looks like.
After all of this happened, my girlfriend joined me on a wild ride in a futuristic car in an even more futuristic looking city. Weirdly enough, this was in the same dream, and followed immediately after the prior events, with the mysterious girl just vanishing without a trace. The city glowed neon, and I was awed by the sights.
Annnnd that's everything. Very odd dream, but nice and vivid.

Ritual: I don't know if it was the jackfruit seeds or a bad scallop, but something I ate last night was brutal to my stomach. It got so unpleasant I that for a few hours I couldn't do anything but pace in discomfort, hoping something would come out in any direction. Finally I threw up, which usually leaves me feeling 100% better, but this was only a minor improvement. I managed to read for a bit, drinking herbal tea and self-medicating with tinctures of myrrh and wormwood. Around midnight I threw up again and finally felt stable enough to sleep. Although my stomach still hurt for a few hours and I couldn't drink much water at first, by the time I woke up at 8am, I was feeling basically fine again. My dream recall was terrible, though: I knew I had dreamed but couldn't pin down a single detail. At 9am I decided to go back to bed for a bit, performed half-assed WILD technique but started dreaming non-lucidly. On waking up my recall was 1/10 at first, but once I managed to recover the location of the dream I was able to follow the thread and reconstruct much of the narrative, resulting in 4/10 recall overall.

I was in my grandmother's house, a common setting for many of my dreams. The events going on were all very mundane... too dull to go into much detail. Briefly, I was looking for some powder that you could mix with milk to make a shake, similar to the Carnation Instant Breakfast packets my grandmother always used to have on hand, but couldn't find any.

I went into the bathroom and finally realized that my location was a dream sign, so I started to look around and wonder if this was a dream. Everything seemed so concrete and convincing that I had my doubts, but then something bizarre happened: I suddenly felt like I was being grabbed from behind by someone putting their arm around my right shoulder, but there was no one in the room with me! I whirled around to make sure and was staring at empty air. A moment later I felt it again even more strongly: the pressure of the arm squeezing my shoulder and chest, and the pressure of a warm body very close behind me.

Ohhh, I thought. I think I know what's going on. I really am dreaming, and my husband has come back to bed and put his arms around me. Upon that realization, I felt the dream fading, and sure enough, woke up in bed next to my husband.

"Are you going to get up? It's 1:50 in the afternoon," he said. I pointed out that I had returned to bed to for extra rest because I hadn't been feeling well last night. I was telling him about the strange thing that had just happened, how I had felt his presence while I was dreaming. I went on to explain how I should have recognized that it was a dream earlier, because my cousins were all much younger than they should be, and my grandmother's house was in the possession of an aunt (long-since divorced) rather than the uncle who currently lives there. My husband apologized for disrupting my dream, but I said it was okay, it hadn't been that interesting.

As we talked, I was looking out the screen door onto our patio. Where I should have seen the pool and cement deck, instead I was mildly surprised to observe a grassy hillside. I attributed this to some lingering after-effects of the dream state, instead of correctly realizing that I had never stopped dreaming all along. In retrospect this is more obvious, because the way I felt my husband put his arm around my right shoulder was impossible given that I sleep on the right side of the bed, so if I'm on my left side there is no room for someone to lay down behind me. I was also relieved when I woke up for real and discovered that it was only a little after 10:30am!

So I had my first lucid dream in several months last night, and I'm really happy I did! It wasn't too eventful, but it was still awesome to be able to experience lucidity after what was probably my longest dryspell in 5 years(aka since I've started the practice of lucid dreaming). So without further adieu:

I dream I'm in a retail store of some assortment(I think a Wal-Mart), and I'm getting some work done(I guess I have a job there in this dream). I'm currently having the worst possible day from what I recall, and working is just a real drag at this point. In the midst of my horrible day, I go and sit down on some boxes to take a break for a moment, and I sigh heavily.

"Can this day get any worse?" I say, jinxing myself.

And sure enough, I hear an all too familiar voice call my name with a nagging voice. I turn and see my old boss from my real life job, Kristina, and she's yelling at me(but don't get me wrong, she was nice from time to time). Upon seeing her yelling at me, I realize just how much I jinxed myself, and I put my head down and sulk.

"This can't be real right now," I say, and I plug my nose.

To my extreme surprise, my airways aren't blocked, and I'm breathing right through my plugged nose. I raise my eyebrows in disbelief, and I decide to double check. I look at my hands, which are pudgy and deformed, and they freak me out a little. I look away from my hands, and I stand up happily. I'm clearly dreaming!

I run over to a different aisle now, ignoring my boss's nagging, and I see some windows high up on the wall. I jump once into the air, and then suddenly I'm flying. I exert as much force as I can, and I fly straight through one of the glass windows.

Outside it's dark and beautiful, and I now have all of this power in my hands to use. I turn around and see some real life friends walking by, and I greet them gleefully. I then fly away and land on top of a rooftop on another building, and I look up to the midnight sky.

I haven't had a lucid dream in forever, so I decide that I can't waste this dream doing something stupid. After consulting with myself, I decide to bring out the nerd in myself and do something for old time's sake. I cup my hands to my side, and I smile as a rush of nostalgia strikes me.

"KA...ME...HA...ME..." I begin shouting at the top of my lungs.

I look at my hands, and sure enough a blue ball of energy is forming within them, and I'm ready to fire. I point my hands up at the sky, and a massive blue beam of ki illuminates the air as it sails into space.

"HA!!!"

After my successful Kamehameha, I stand on the rooftop, and I feel refreshed. I haven't done anything this fun in awhile, and I need to do more in the future.

Unfortunately, my recall is a bit shot after this moment. I loosely remember flying elsewhere and trying something else I can't recall, but that was most of the dream. Nonetheless, I was happy to have a lucid dream again!

I was on the mountainside. Or somewhere in the province at least, where I'm surrounded by trees and low or cut grass. I was walking and then I was chased by a goose. It wasn't scary. It was more amusing than anything. It was a big goose though. I ran around. Then there was a goat and it chased me too.

Something about the beach.

- I was watching Parasyte before I slept.

Bloodbath and sword of shrooms

I was playing Blood in Bloodbath mode. The map I was playing on belonged to a od or expansion, as it wasn't part of an original game. It was dark, with apocalypse setting. It was placed in cliffs. The sky was red. There were many power ups scattered around, that were never in the game.

Suddenly another player joins me. He had a nickname "bone2boons". We started to fight. He wanted to shoot me down with a sawed-off, but I was quicker and shot him first. I ran for another weapon. I jumped down the cliff into some kind of plateau.

There were many weapons and power-ups there. I picked up spray can. He ran towards me. I prepared lighter, and sent him a wave of flames, which incinerated him quickly. Then he ran back towards me, and picked up one of the new power-ups: vampire suit.

I tried to shoot him down, but I missed all the time. When the power-up respawned, I picked it up and transformed into vampire. I flewn up, and we fought in the air. We both used shotguns. I killed him another time. The punctation was weird, as after three kills I had 110 points.

Suddenly he disappeared, but was still present on the server. I looked for him in the cliffs, plateau and a new chamber with skeletons I discovered. He started to use chat:

b2b (bone2boons): The skull and skeletons.

Suddenly I found a new way up to the mountains. When following it, I saw a huge cavern. Then a huge, terrifying skull jumped out of it with it's undead army. It killed me before I could do anything. I respawned on the plateau, and ran back to the skull.

When it spotted me, it started to chase me. I jumped down the cliff, and survived using vampire suit which then lost it's power. The skull killed me again. I ran back to the cavern. Bone2boons started to write again:

b2b: the cavern.

b2b: take the sword, the heritance of shrooms.

I entered it, and took a sword made out of mushrooms. The cavern changed to my kitchen. I saw somehting lying up on the wardrobe. I climbed up the furniture, and found evidences of kidnapping. Suddenly I heard a voice:

- Wow! You're getting good at this!

And then a text appeared in the middle of my vision. The letters said "Desert". I realised that I'm inside some kind of TV show.

Remembered this dream this past Friday morning. My recall sure has been wonky lately.
I lost my house due to not paying the bills, along with the fact that some greedy people wanted it for themselves. Basically, I was kicked out, and my girlfriend was with me (naturally).
We seemingly had no where to go, but luckily enough, her Canadian friend (a guy I know IRL) owned a ranch and allowed us to stay there with him.
Now, this was all well and good. Soft beds and beautiful outdoors weren't things to complain about. But this guy, whom I'll call E (her friend and the owner of the ranch), he started trying to get her attention away from me on him. It started to become a dastardly competition between the two of us, to see who could win my girlfriend's affections. This was basically us:
Eventually it got to the point where we started arguing over who was the best. My girlfriend didn't intervene on the whole thing, but instead chose the more amusing option and sat on the sidelines enjoying every bit of it.

I know there was a little more before the dream ended, but it's too hazy. So, here we are.

Took a snooze on the floor of my bedroom today. (For some odd reason.) Remembered some dreamlets and other tidbits from the nap.

-I was getting some dream music. At first a very odd electronic sounding piece with strange distorted synth sounds. I woke up or lost the dream. I then started getting classical music, I think piano and string instruments mostly. It sounded very unusual though, and some kind of horn kicked in halfway through.

I either woke up or simply FA'd. I decided to go back. I began hearing a singers' voice this time. A male singer, singing away to a happy tune. What he said was either distorted Spanish or just dreamspeak.

-Manei asked me to look at her belly button. She said that she was afraid of getting this condition where you would grow a pair of lips around your belly button. She was showing me pictures of another girl who got it. I looked. Nope. Nothing there. But seriously, WTF Manei?!

I really need to do like a 'The best of Manei' kind of thing on one of the fourms.

-I remember meeting two characters from my comic, Raiah and Maxwell. The two were sitting on the couch playing video games. (Very in-character...) (Raiah is actually one that I have been trying to make into a DC). Maxwell is her brother. Upon seeing maxwell I was upset that his hair was not spiky. (Since his hair is spiky in the comics, it's actually made fun of on several occasions since things can get stuck on the spikes.)

I remember getting excited since this was one of the first times that I had seen either of them in a dream. Maxwell smilled at me and for some reason he only had four really big teeth, two on the bottom and two on top. (What is up with all the body malfunctions?!)

I was in school. It was during biology lesson. I was checking empty fields in the list of random human parasites.

This dream, which I meant to write down yesterday, is a fragment. I recalled some of it yesterday (Thursday) morning. I recalled a more vivid dream this morning which I'll post later in a separate entry.
I was at a factory, where loads of people were shopping at various booths, almost like a convention. At this place were the four Best Friends Zaibatsu, whom my girlfriend and I hung out with, watching video games and anime.
Not the most exciting dream, but I jotted it down nonetheless.

I was inside a room. Hometown? My heart/chest was feeling heavy. I was dying. I was taking medicine, but it seems like it's the last time it will push Death back. As a lie on the bed looking up at the ceiling, everything was getting hazy. I though that the medicine was kicking in, but at the same time, I thought that if I fall asleep, it will be my last. I had a quick panic attack, but it subsided. In resignation, I breathed out my last.

I was looking out through the window. There's daylight outside. I was unsure if I was dead. Everything seems bright but not so bright.

I was in a bus going somewhere to buy clothing. I think my sister (or someone else?) was with me. We took the bus downtown, I think. We passed by some people I know, but they're far away and on the street. I had to turn my head away so it will look like I didn't see them if they see me. I don't know why.

Notes:

- I was reading Death and the Senator by Arthur C. Clarke, but didn't finish it.
- My upper body is sore because of conditioning.
- I slept at around 2 a.m. Alarm at 8 am.

Slave rebellion

The dream started in this rectangular area which seemed to be a deserted wasteland. Sort of like a desert but without hills.. and no sand.. or cacti.. but more like this, but with significantly less shrubs and plants and whatnot. There was more to it than just this rectangular area, but I paid more attention to this place because there were cardboard boxes spread around, each with about 1-2 people in them with orange or grey prison clothes, with me being one of these people. I recognized a lot of people I know at school within this group. Apparently we were all slaves and we had to go to this store to combine items to create this red dust for the group who were enslaving us. So we went to one of the corners of this area and while the place looked tiny on the outside, it was a large store. Nobody seemed to be in this store, so we all took some items to create this dust. Strangely enough, throughout this whole process we weren't restrained by any handcuffs or chains or anything, and also there were no guards watching us. When we realized this, everyone decided to rebel against this group. After that we all took our respective red dusts and left the store to reunite with our cardboard boxes. The dream faded after that.

A majority of the people I recognized in this dream were from my gym class. And recently, we had to do a test in the gym so we had to spread out.. as for the cardboard boxes, our recent science project involved one.

Also, stores. They seem to play a large part of the setting in my recent dreams.. I'll have to keep this in mind.

Very Lucky

The dream started with me waking up in my bed. The door to my room was open and the other room at the far end of mine's door was open as well. Then I said, "I want to practice dream control right now so this has to be a dream right?" What an odd way to start questioning your reality. I then said, "If I'm really dreaming then I could make anything I think appear behind the corner of the far room." But I started to think of something nightmarish, and before I could control myself I looked back towards that corner. Before I could see anything, the dream started to fade out and I woke up. Though I started questioning reality, I don't really think I believed it could have been a dream. I never would think of something scary if I REALLY believed it was a dream. That's probably something I need to work on when doing daily reality checks. I'm just really glad and really lucky my dream faded before I saw that thing..

Wrote my dream down but it got erased because the page closed by mistake. so I'm not going to describe what happened as much.

Strange Whale


-I was inside a city in the late afternoon. The weather was fine and I was looking at my mom's tablet minding my own business. Suddenly a man comes up slowly and tells me to give the table to him. I scream for the police to help me. Than they come and arrest the man.

-Inside my room changing my bed. Its dirty and I plan to wash it in the washing machine but i go upstairs to tell my mom first. She ends up complaining to me about something I did wrong though so I leave.

-I was watching a video of a girl showing her two other friends how she plays the drums. She is moving her head back and forth as she hits a drum with the stick. I than get sucked into the place and her and her friends disappear. After that I tried playing the drums but end up making a lame beat. I press the pedal for a low beat than start hearing the sound of a low bass guitar. There is a nice beat playing which makes me want to play a electric guitar.

I'm outside in my front porch with my father and some other family members/people. I toss something over in the direction of another house porch and mention how a girl is going to catch it. Two girls appear and one of them takes the thing I threw. I than laugh mentioning how It was just a mind trick since the girls their seeing aren't real. I walk to the other house porch and take the thing from the girl. I start to feel sort of bad playing the trick on my dad's old neighbors house though.

-After that I appeared on a bed with another guy. He gave off a kind presence. Like the dc I wanted to bring in from another dream.He pulled out a medium size blue whale and asked me what it was. I said i didn't know since it looked a bit strange. He said something like "Saving the marine life". Than the whale opened it's mouth wide and wind lines began to form as if it was going to suck me up whole. The dc than told me I had to be careful since junk and dirt fly out of its mouth. I started to feel the thing sucking me up so i held onto the bed and put my face down after telling him to make it stop.

Something jumped on me though and I could feel pressure on the back of my neck. I tried to force it off of me but it wasn't working.It took a while but i managed to get it off and noticed the guy behind me. I guessed it was his fault i couldn't move. He than mentioned how he wanted to see star wars 2 and started changing the channel on the T.V. that was present in the room. I lay down and thought about how weird the movie he put looked than woke up.

Bird Poop

-Walked around the supermarket.Ended up in my parent's bedroom with the guy dc from the other dream and more dream characters. I think there were some anime people present. I changed my dream look than started to bake something for the baking competition that was going on in the room. As I was mixing the batter the guy dc was building something. Sadly bird poop and food began to appear in the batter so i quit doing the competition.

I went downstairs to my room with my brother and the guy dc after that. We were looking at old childhood papers and report cards. I noticed one that was mine that had the number 63%. My second grade teacher appeared after that and she started talking about dreams a lot. I became fully lucid when I saw the words ocean and dreamviews on a report card.

The guy dc next to me told her to follow him somewhere. When I peeked through the corner of the wall at them i saw him push her to a corner and start making out with her. I thought how weird it was if they were both guides than looked back in the room i was in.The scene started changing so i asked a young girl ( She looked 10) present in the room if she wanted to follow me. We went out to my backyard and I thought i saw my dog Max. Than i asked the girl for her name. She said "Emma". I tried crawling under the gate than woke up.

Forest - fragment

I was doing something with a shovel in forest.

Warning myself

I was in school. I entered a classroom and sat near a guy in grey hoody. He was somehow weird. After a while I realised that I'm sitting near myself. I looked closer at me, and saw that there is a bug, which bites painfully. I tried to warn myself, but when I did it, I woke up.

I was up late last night working on a project and getting ready for my art history exam (It starts in about 2 hours). I couldn't care less for lucidity tonight but I remembered some NLDs. There was much more detail to these, but I'll have to put it in later if I still remember it.

1.) I was in either Last Airbender or Legend of Korra. The entire dream had the look of the show and even the dream characters were drawn in much the same way that they are on the show. We were in some kind of big hangar bay or something where various characters from the show appeared. I think I remember seeing Toph and Katara, and then Zaheer. I also saw a couple of sky bision fly through the hangar. Later they all left.

Then, everything changed into realism. Manei appeared and ask me if I wanted to go to the spirit world with her. I said yes, but I don't recall anything happening after that.

2.) I was preforming a covert operation with my cousins where we had to sneak into a juvenile delinquent facility, get some information, and sneak out. I remember it was huge and built on top of a mountain with cliffs all around so getting out was going to be hard. We were in good with some of the guards so that helped.

At one point, we were in a large yard by the cliff-side. They were calling everyone in but we had to find a place we could hide so we could stay in the yard after dark. There was a big brick wall, a Remanent of a destroyed building that was just big enough for all three of us to hide behind.

Some kind of prison guard who was psychic caught us though. He turned out to be one of the guards we were in good with and told us we needed to find better hiding spots to carry out this operation.

3.) Something to do with driving my mom to get this skin treatment. She bought this big tray of this brownie cake type dish that was supposed to make her skin look better. There was something to do with taking care of her hair as well.
