non-lucid

Non-lucid dream, but still pretty.. ..interesting. Prelude: I've had a crush on Robert Carlyle since I was about 13 (he would have been 38 at the time) and have only recently admitted publicly that I do.

[Dream]
I'm in a supermarket, working as a cashier. Suddenly Robert Carlyle is brought in, in handcuffs, as he had stolen something in another store. They didn't have any room to keep him, so he was sat down right next to me. We exchanged a few looks, but he was really pissed off. I just continued my work.

-time gap-

My work day ends and I'm told to escort Robert to prison, which I reluctantly do. Out of freaking nowhere a massive vampier vs humans fight breaks out in the prison, and I'm fighting alongside Sam Winchester (one of the main characters in "Supernatural"). The vampires have found a way to chemically freeze humans (you know, for conservation) and threaten to freeze everyone. (Funfact: they call it Vitrification) Sam and some other guy sacrifice themselves to be frozen so the rest of us have a fighting chance.

The floor in front of them turns to ice, they step on it and freeze from their shoes up to their hair. It looks incredibly painful, but we have to fight the vampires so I sneak my way up to the balcony from which the vampires were looking on. The entire floor below is now ice and I start pushing them off of the balcony and onto the frozen floor, where they freeze just like the humans.

Victorious, I stand up, turn around, and there is Robert Carlyle again, looking at me with sadness in his eyes. It hits me like a brick: he's a vampire too. A new one, I'd say, as the top of his head is missing (remember that scene at the end of KILL BILL? The one where O-ren Ishii is standing there with the very top of her head chopped off? Yeah, that's how Bobby looked.). I look back at him and shake my head. "You really need to get your head checked." I tell him. He half-smiles but it disappears soon as we both know what he has to do now..

[end dream]

Luckily for me, nothing happened next, but that feeling of understanding and sadness is still with me.
In case anyone didn't grasp it, he was supposed to kill me at the end, as I was the only remaining non-vampire. As I lay awake afterwards, I did imagine that there was another way: conversion. If he had me converted into a vampire, we both could have lived. But in the dream, it didn't occur to either of us, apparently.

MY DREAMS

This one dream I was in my house and it was dark, I couldn't find my father or sister. I believe in ghost and this one was pulling down the energy in the house. it was the cause of the darkness and evil feeling. *side note* (I was told that if i wanted a ghost to leave me alone all I needed to do was tell it to leave me alone.) I go down my hall way into my father's room and I could sense that the evil ghost was near by and I went to my dad's bath room and I got to look in but than I was moved back (not like by the ghost but like if my dream was lagging and I moved back like I never had gotten to look in the bathroom in the first place). Than my father appeared and he had this dead evil look on his face and he was staring at me. I could tell the ghost was inside of him so normally I would be terrified and I was but than I wanted to fight it off and the dream became semi lucid and I was able to fight back and scream go away but than the dream ended.


I had a dream about me trying to graduate and my family didn't want to show up nor did I really attend my graduation. (*REAL LIFE* I had already graduated in real life and my dad wasn't able to make it but my mother attended). It was the middle of graduation and I was at my house trying to get my family to go but they wouldn't and my father was there and he wasn't going to go and I reminded him that he didn't attend my REAL LIFE graduation in the dream (don't know why I was graduating twice). He gave me this face of total sorrow and the face creped me out, I could feel that he felt bad about not being able to attend. than I thought he was going to commit suicide (that's also a real life thought). Finally it finished with me going to graduation and my mom and sister being angry at me and trying to chase me down for some unknown reason.


SO last night I was dreaming and I woke up and went straight back to be as I normally do all night long (I don't sleep well). And the dream went pitch black but I could feel but see myself asleep in third person, like anything that was happening I could feel and it would switch from first to third person a lot. Finally I could FEEL my body being weightless and I knew it was a lucid dream but I have never had a lucid dream like this, normally they are dreams that turn lucid. Anyways

I would feel myself becoming weightless and I do mean FEEL, it is indescribable. than I relax and try to go further into the lucid dreaming and I tell myself to open my eyes because I want to see around my room but when I tried to open my eyes it was extremely hard and I have nightmares a lot and they become lucid EVERY TIME and I get out of them by opening my eyes and waking up.

But this time when I opened my eyes I saw my bedroom wall partly (because it was extremely hard to open them). I saw like pink and white shiny things on the wall they reminded me of like computer processers but pink. And I was trying to lay on my back but my eyes were like rolling in the back of my head and my mouth opened and I could feel myself breathing and I got scared so I stopped.



JUST A DETAIL OF SOME OF MY DREAMS

I can not for my life run or punch people in my dreams! The decisions are semi lucid. I have the want and thought to run and punch but in the dream it is all slow-mow. when I get in a fight with someone I try to punch them and im extremely slow and I get the crap beat out of me.

When im trying to run away, its like there is a small amount of gravity and I cant really run, it is more of like I am really trying to get away but I take forever to move my legs and when they strike the ground I don't move very much, if anywhere

This is going to be the details and listings of all of my dreams that came true, I am not making this up I promise!

First future dream to come true

So I had a dream YEARS ago (the bare minimum of 2years), like when I was having this dream I didn't not know the room or tables but I knew the people around me. We were in a classroom (I had never seen it at this time) and the people at the table where in a circle including me. I could tell you exactly who was sitting where and the person sitting across from me is Omar. Now I was really short in the dream, barley able to see over the table but enough to have details of my surroundings. We were suppose to be playing a board game and the game was given to us by an unknown person but it was placed in the middle of us. Omar asked "What game are we playing?" and then processed to say "Oh monopoly!!" and that's where it ended.

I don't know the time distance of the real life occurrence and the dream but it had to be between a couple of months to over a year. Than I get in my science class and the second semester we are make science board games and finally it comes down to playing them. I was put in a group with all the people who were around me in the dream including omar, everyone was in their dream seating arrangement and bam!!! The dream starts to play out and at the end of the dream I had a huge deja vu moment.


Second dream

I don't remember when I had this dream but it might of been in the past year. I know for a fact that I had been at place once in my life but never where I was standing or having the knowledge of who the people were around me. (I was at the place years before I had the dream).

So in the dream I was standing where a hostess would stand to greet the people who walked in the door and in front of me were on the left and right sides of the rooms were booths and up the middle of the room were tables. The table closest to me was a table of 6 and I remember a lady on the right end of the table closest to me had her arm up asking a waitress a questions. This waitress was a female with long black hair in a pony tail and she was heavier set and the dream ended.

Than I was working at this restaurant as a busser and I had been there for a couple of months and I was standing where I was in the dream and BAM, the dream played out. I was hit with the BIGGEST deja vu moment EVER! I thought the first one was bad.. no. I couldn't think straight and I was dizzy after it happened

third dream to some true

So I had this dream when I was either in 7th or 6th grade because I thought it was my science teacher who was dreaming the pictures in my dream (explained below). I was graduated and in cosmetology school when it came true. So a 5 or 6 year period of me not remembering or have the dream again.

So in the dream I was in a white room with some tables in the room. they were grey and tall but like I said above I was short in my first dream but im not sure about this one, it is a possibility that I was. In front of we was a white board with some weird drawing on it that I had to draw it on a piece of paper in front of me and that was it.

5 or 6 years later in my REAL LIFE I went to cosmetology school and in class one day we were drawing that same picture on the white board down on paper. it took quit some time for me to realize that my dream was coming true right in front of me and it took 3 of the same drawing for me recognize it. But it came true!

Fourth Dream

This one was more of a picture and it was of this house it was small and it was a doorway leading into the kitchen with an attached living room. In the middle of the picture was an older couple with their dog and that is it. The picture was blurry so I don't have much detail for it

I recently met the couple and their dog in their home that was just like the picture, I didn't realized it happened tell I got home and a small deja vu happened.


These were my dreams and some times I see myself through my own eyes or someone who was watching from above but all these dreams where from my own eyes no third person view.

Thanks so much for reading. Tell me if you have had dreams like this please! I want to know more about them. I have a theory if you want to hear about it.

Dream 1 - 3:45 am

I'm in a car with friends driving through a rocky area, which has at least 50+ apes on the side of the road. They look a decent size and pretty muscular. I mention to my friends about the muscularity of them.

We're walking up a narrow path when I see man on a Harley Davidson. His back wheel seems to be a lot smaller in size but makes up for if in width. It's very thick compared to the front wheel. I tell my friends that the fire looks weird and they pretty much tell me what I thought about the width, thickness.

We reach the top of the path which has a lot of trees and more paths. I begin to follow Daryl and Germain as we move through the Forrest. I keep losing them as I reach a cross roads and have to figure out the correct direction by feel and logic. This happens a few times.

We're now inside a toilet which looks upper class and doesn't have a toilet type of feel to it. I see a container with food in front of me and I roll some up and put it in my mouth. It looks strange, I don't know what it was. I think it was Germain's food. I yell out to Germain who is still in the cubicle about how they kept getting too far out in front and that I had to guess the direction. Germain doesn't answer back and I assume he didn't hear me. The food now looks like mince meat. I ask Daryl if he had eaten and he says yes. Germain leaves the cubical and starts explaining the track so i wouldn't get lost again. He says there's only one more left turn to do.

I see my cousin David in the toilet and he's near the long seats. He wants myself and Germain to sign a card which will confirm that we're going to my other cousins wedding in SA. It's $300 accommodation if we attend. Germain signs his name in big writing. I follow suit and sign and leave a xox at the bottom.

Friends and I are now in a car waiting for something. I see a car with no roof in front of us. It's got people in it from my AFL team that I follow. The scene is still. One of the players that I remember is Goldsack. I tell the fellas to check out who's in the car in front of us.

I see a scene of another player, Steel Sidebottom. He's in the same car but has 2 Chinese women in the front seats. Both women have funky colors in their hair. He is in the headlines at the moment due to getting caught getting a head job off the girls.

I see a few team members in a musical singing.

Dream 2 - 7:45 am

I'm at a school with my brother and few other people I know. My brother seems to be drunk and begins to start intimidating a guy I know Daniel Jons. Brother eggs on Daniel by telling him to come on and gets into a fighting stance. They're now face to face with brothers back to the wall, when Daniel performs a high kick to my brothers head. It almost knocks my brother out and he's very unsteady on his feet. I get up and try and calm everyone down. Brother can't see and he's eyes look messed up. He has 2 different colored eyes and has darkish bags under his eyes as if he was extra tired.

We walk David home. On the way home we go through the car park at the parkway shopping center. I remember seeing Daniel drive down our estate where we live. He was driving a black lambo. I tell my brother that we may see Daniel again while walking home.

We're looking for a bin for some reason and are walking in the middle of the road. I see a car come towards us which has something long connected to the back of the car, like a trailer. It comes pretty close to us when driving passed. I check the map to see if there's any sign of a bin close by. I couldn't anything that indicates a bin being close by. I bail on the fellas and head home.'

I'm at my old house and I hear my brother explaining what happened to him to our Dad. He gives the wrong story of what happened and I but in and explain what really happened, explaining that he was drunk and started the trouble.

Dream 3 - 8:50 am

I'm outside trying to 1x scope with the sniper. I'm sneaking passed and up to certain enemies.

I'm now walking around a building in a narrow area. It's a shaded area with trees in my view. I see an enemy with his back to me. I think he's trying to fix his gun. I line my gun up at him and try and focus the red laser dot on his head, but it seems rather faint and i can't really see it. Even know I'm only a few meters away i don't trust my aiming without the aid of the laser. The enemy begins to turn around and I quickly bail around the corner but thought he may have heard the noise I made of my feet rustling on the ground as I quickly moved around the corner. I brace myself for the enemy to come around the corner and ready to fire if I have to. I see the enemy come into scene and I shoot him 3 times hip firing, killing him. I see that the enemy has some paper scrunched up in his hand. I'm worried if I open his hand up and grab the paper that I will leave finger prints or some kind of evidence against me at the site. I think I open his hands up and get the paper out of his hands. I begin to realize this is weird and has to be a dream or it seemed very dream like but I wake up before I figure it out.

Dream Fragment:

people are trying to figure out why something is happening or why they're not having the right results. They think it may due to the filthy bed. The stains on the mattress.

8.10.14

Last night bed 9:30 -4:40

I was peeking into some small cave. It was all white inside. Small stalagtites and stalagmites were all over the walls, floors and ceiling. Not sure if ice. It was not translucent, but snow white and sparkling.

Right next door was a large indoor swimming pool. It was carved into the rock floor. The edges were smooth, like marble.

Water was clear, and underneath, there was no bottom, but another pool just like that. There were people milling about.

Also some dreams about work.

I wake up in Father room got up and went to the bathroom, I tried to turn on the lights but it didn't work, I tried again but it failed again. That's when I saw hand on the wall and it started making me question whether this is a dream or not that's when I made an attempt to look at myself in the mirror however since there was no lights it was hard to see through. I place my fingers on the mirror to test how many fingers I had, they came up to five fingers. I decided I guess I must be seeing things in till this pressure hits me and reminds me that no this is definitely a dream. That's when I realize I was dreaming but before I could move my whole entire dream body I froze and was unable to move. I tried to lift my arm but it was out my own control and started flapping around, that's when my lucidity backfire and logical reasoning decided it's impossible to be in a dream when it feels this real. I lost lucidity and join my Father and brother in the living room.



Another dream I appear in a coffee shop and was looking n the mirror, I quickly realize that I was a different person and that the body I currently was having was not mine. That's when I prepare to leave the coffee shop to go outside as I make my way to the door this man who was hidden tried to elbow me in the face. However his aim was off and lost his balance once he miss he landed by a near side table. I look at him and realize he's trying to fight me because I took his body, after that I walk out the building running and my two subordinates were already waiting for me. As we run to the woods that wasn't far from where the coffee shop was located we all could sense that man in the coffee shop was coming at us at incredible speeds. He zoom pass me and slid on the muddy ground trying to lose momentum, once he regain balance I stare at him waiting to see what he'll do. He looks at me in anger and walks right pass me , one of my associates told me we should get him. I laugh and said this isn't worth our time and told him because he would never be willing to fight himself. We continue walking in the woods as it started raining but shortly after that I woke up. Lucidity Time 6 seconds.

Upside: LD 2 nights in a row for final two nights and a memorable WILD, though somewhat short. Downside: not a whole lot of points and the one the next night even shorter.

8/9/14* something sexual in party setting? / parameters of video recording / rental house white paint maybe painted in here looks nice in day..not bright at night. / guy being dragged behind boat as punishment. Acquaintance calls out for him to be freed. / While experimenting with visualizing and taking control of HH's, I fall into a wild. What I at first only saw as an advanced dreamlet that would likely dematerialize, became more as I interacted with it or already was more. I was apparently standing outside perhaps in front of a restaurant or similar area where people would gather in front of and there's this group of people including this sexy woman in a gorgeous dress. It was skin tight with white and earth tones in it with the different colors in blocks on a solid white base. Most of the earth tone colors were horizonal blocks around the midsection and bottom of the dress and there were two vertical blocks over the thighs that were see through revealing her beautiful thighs. Idecide to take action in what I think is a still a dreamlet. I say something complimentary about her and her dress.<<DC interact>> She takes my hand and urges me towards the town car that she apparently came in. As we both climb in the visuals become more ethereal with only flashes of light here and there as we have sex it feels like we are both in space floating weightless and moving together as one in a wonderful moment of ecstasy! This continues for a while until I wake up. Maybe 3-4 minutes total. Wow!!! 188

8/10/14* narrator: gruesome scene but also surreal scene. He used a hammer. / keep paperwork? From time we went to hospital to show hardship. False memory. / thank you bro-law E..for picking me up? Giving me a ride? / normal sport not in normal position, not tired at all. Losing my normal position? At half-time go into school see sexy woman and think if dream I would take action (like I was thinking during wbtb visualization), wake / penises on TV, all different, wife sees and giggles, for some reason I worry during dream that wife may be imagining another man during sex. / on phone with MB, us as witness for lawyer for her divorce case / at school for event, auditorium doors open part way by themselves. I peek in and it is dark and ominous. I take off down hall...Should I Fly?!!! this is a dream! Go for Step3 to the TOTY (sleeping beauty who was also was going to be transformed to Scarlett for my personal goal but I didn't get far at all)...Look for exit...doors locked...I bust through like Superman. I fly super fast up toward "fantasyland" as imagined...maybe 25 seconds and I stop, thinking this is far enough. While deciding whether to step out or fall back,to get into fantasyland, I wake. 189 / JD from 90 minutes North of here brings a baby & small girl...just dropping them off can't stay (ex coming?) I carry baby...big! Pantsless so I go to bathroom find swim trunks. More people coming for a party...swim trunks are embarrassing. Day residue or like baby the other night, also big. Use baby for baby new year in parade. Baby teetering...falls but falls well so he's unhurt. I try to break his fall and miss - too late, and pick him up. Cute woman washing dishes and moving butt sexily (visualization residue for girl friday) I say don't do that...implying provocative. Camera. / I slept too long and still try an afternoon nap before end of competition to try to get more points knowing that the last two nights will not add up to a whole lot of points. Was able to get HH's and interact some but eventually just knock out for the nap.

I've posted the lucid dream at the bottom of this entry but I'm going to start with some non-lucids. I don't usually post my non-lucids in the Dream Journal, but this was a cool series of four NLDs all from the same night as the lucid. All of the NLDs featured Dreamer as well as some other DV folks. The first dream about the magical fox was probably one of the funniest I've ever had.

NLD#1: The Magical Fox

Lots of people on DreamViews are in a big, active study group on advanced dream control. There are 40 or 50 of on this subforum and everyone’s got workbooks that they update regularly. Definite participants include me, Dreamer, Xanous, sivason, NyxCC, and Sensei.

There’s tons of excitement and everyone’s improving rapidly. At some point, we come up with a strange plan to capture a rare, magical animal to use as a class pet. This will somehow improve everyone’s dream control even more. We come up with this awful plan to cut down all of these ancient trees in an old growth forest to drive the creature out of its habitat so that we can more easily capture it.

I’m embarrassed to say that I and nearly everyone else in the class was totally for this plan, but Dreamer is dead-set against it. She objects, begging the study group not to do this and not to destroy this creature’s way of life just to improve our skills a little bit. But everybody’s too excited about the plan to listen.

Dreamer puts a desperate plan into motion. She announces in her workbook that, “I just GASSED!” (Meaning “passed gas”.) And somehow this amazingly strong, room-clearing stench hits the nose of every DV member at same time that she makes this announcement. Everyone stops what they’re doing, horrified.

Now that she has farted her way into everyone’s attention, Dreamer gives a rousing, moving speech about how what we’re about to do is wrong and that we have to change out ways. She says that this magical creature should be free and that it should serve as an inspiration for us out there in its natural home. We shouldn’t be destroying the place that it loves.

She convinces everyone and we halt our plans to deforest the fox's home. Instead, the study group travels out to the forest to commune with the creature and learn advanced dream control this way. The dream ends with a scene of several people sitting down meditating and several others talking about how inspired we all were by Dreamer’s speech.

NLD #2: The Dreamsign
After Dreamer and I exchanged Skype messages during WBTB, I had the following dream (and a huge missed dreamsign):

I look over to see that I’ve received a skype message from Dreamer. It says, “You did wind up falling asleep, right?” I feel guilty for still being “awake” and looking at the clock instead of trying harder to get into a dream. I fret about this for a bit before finally replying with something jokey.

It never occurs to me that she was basically trying to tell me that I’m dreaming right now.

NLD #3: The Watch
This one’s a little hazy, but Dreamer and I have come into possession of a complex, advanced wristwatch that an elderly black woman constructed by hand.

From the top of a parking garage, we get into a car and ride around in the back seat, me watching as Dreamer disassembles the watch into all of these tiny pieces. I worry a bit about how to keep the pieces from getting lost in the car.

We go to some other building to do something important and possibly dangerous, but I can’t recall what was involved.

NLD #4: Hot Street Fighter II
This dream was a cross between skyping and exchanging DV forum posts, the conversation taking place entirely between me and Dreamer.

Dreamer: “I had a dream where you had these super HOT scenes with ladies from Street Fighter II.”

She goes on to mention that she was telling a couple of other DV friends (including KristaNicole07) about the dream. She asks, “I wanted to know if it was okay to tell them you don’t have a beard.”

I ask why they’d need to know that and Dreamer responds: “It’s really relevant to what happened in this dream.” Whatever the reason is that this is relevant, it appears to be highly amusing to her.

After I woke up from this one it occurred to me that there is only one female character in the original Street Fighter II. Maybe we can count Cammy of Super Street Fighter II. Because otherwise, the dream implied that I had a “hot” scene with Blanka or Ken or one of the rest of the crew.

Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

Lucid #230: Bold Talk

I’m at home, walking through the master bathroom toward the gym. I’m clumsy, staggering around like I’m dizzy or drunk. Out of nowhere there’s a buzzing noise, electric and unbearably loud. It reminds me of the transition into a dream and I realize that I’m dreaming right now.

I don’t feel stable right away but I furiously rub my hands together, immediately remembering my goal to try to gain total control and confidence in this dream.

“This is my lucid dream!” I bark. “I can do anything!” The gym looks dark and I don’t want to double back. It doesn’t matter, I remember right away that the next thing I want to do is phase outside. I phase through an external wall, expecting to end up outdoors but end up in some new, relatively empty room. It looks like it belongs in my house but it’s not a room that I recognize. Fine. Again! I try another phase through the outer wall…

And wind up in a larger, more bare version of my master bathroom. I’m a little annoyed but I figure that confidence will carry me through this in the end. I hit a nose pinch reality check, breathing in and out a couple of times to cement in my mind that this is a dream.

There’s a mirror and I look over at it to see a more hulking, slightly angrier-looking version of myself. I decide to try to summon Dreamer. I say, “There’s a woman here, right behind!” There’s an uncertain stir in the mirror’s image. I remember to hurriedly add, “And it’s gonna be Dreamer!”

This isn’t working and I don’t have a DC to repurpose as Dreamer. I turn away from the mirror, intending to switch to a handshake summon, but the dream ends.

8/10/2014

Chapter I: Three Travelers
I don’t remember the events preceding but somehow some friends and I had come across three hikers in the snow. We were in a forest in the middle of winter. The forest was somewhat thin. The hikers were injured critically and were suffering from hypothermia. They had amnesia and had no idea what had happened or where they even were. Somehow we were able to surmise that there had been an avalanche and they were caught in it. We got them back to my apartment and took care of them. I do not remember how the hikers looked but I do remember talking with one of them. A young woman (probably mid to late 20s). I think she and I had an engaging conversation. I have a feeling that she shared with me aspects of her life that were of importance to her. I remember feeling particularly bad for her because her injuries were much more severe. I left her wondering if we would get a chance to speak again…we didn’t. She died the next morning.

Chapter II: Necromancy
There once was a man who believed in ghosts
“I know them, I hear them, I see them,” he’d boast
I worked with this man, I knew him well
How this came to be, I couldn’t tell
He came one day and shouted, “Come look!”
“Look what I have! A magical book!”
“This book is special,” he said to me.
“Open this book and ghosts you will see.”
The book was black, a green skull on the front
It looked rather trite if I could be blunt
“How does it work?” I asked this guy
“Open the book, it will blow your mind!”
“There’s a portal! A portal! A portal inside!”
“That allows you to meet those who have died!”
So I opened the book and so there was
A window inside to ghosts abuzz
The ghosts were green and had red eyes
Then I heard a voice, “Have you lost your minds??”
I look and I see, a woman is there
I don’t recall her looks, not even her hair.
The woman came up and then she said.
“What is your problem? Are you sick in the head?”
“Now listen here and listen you,”
“Those ghosts are hostile. They’ll rip you in two!”
What happens next, I cannot recall.
So our chapter ends here. That is all.



Chapter III: Zero-G
It was a normal work day in the backroom at Walmart. It was the latter part of my shift and by this time I was doing picks. I was going to speak with coworker, Sean, about something when suddenly I saw him lift off of the ground. Soon after, I was off the ground too. We, along with several others there, were floating towards the ceiling.
“God damn it!” Sean exclaimed, “Some idiot turned off the gravity again!” Fuck ups were commonplace at the store I worked but until now I had no idea that there was gravity plating beneath the floors of the backroom. I questioned the need for such a thing in a place like this and who on earth would have been stupid enough to reverse the gravity plates (which we apparently have)? I began to consider the consequences of what would happen should I break though one of the skylights. I began to panic at the thought of floating out into space and being lost forever. Anxious, I began to claw at the shelving just beneath me. My fears were unfounded as the gravity plates were set right and we all floated back down. I was embarrassed for panicking the way I did.

Chapter IV: Night Ride
For some reason, my car was out of commission so I had no other alternative but to ride my bike to work. The moon shone brightly in the sky as I rode through the commercial district of one of the small towns. Before I knew it there was a whole line of bikes ahead of me and behind me along with a few cars. I loved riding in this makeshift convoy. But my bike was uncomfortable because the handle bars were low so I pulled over onto the median, making sure to stay out of the way of the other riders, and pulled the handle bars as high as I could. So I rode on but the handle bars were still too low for me and it was very uncomfortable to ride. At the next light, I lowered my seats and was very grateful to the people behind me for their patience as the light had turned green as I was adjusting. They were all very cool about it and didn’t say a word. So I rode on and now I was comfortable. I vaguely remember making friends with a girl who was riding with us but I don’t remember much of the details behind that.
I got to work and was ready to start unloading the truck. My heart race when I thought I heard my supervisor say that we had a 7000 piece truck to unload. I asked him again and I was sure he had said 7046 this time! Which was odd because I could see inside the truck and it didn’t look like that much. I walked up to him and asked how much we had to unload that day and I clearly heard him say 1746. A sigh of relief left as we started to unload the truck. I had a good feeling about tonight. I had a feeling that this was going to be a good night.

Chapter V: The Machine
There was a scientist who had managed to set up shop in the back rooms of Walmart. He was trying to work a machine that could open up portals to other worlds. His attempts were futile as the machine had never worked. But perhaps now it would. You see, this man had an ace up his sleeve. A young boy probably around thirteen or fourteen. This boy was his a assistant.
He turned to this boy and said: “You there! You will be the one to power this machine! The power to make this work will come from you!” The man pulled out a small empty plastic box that was connected to the machine with a couple of wires. The boy stepped in and sat down in the box without saying a word. The man then activated the machine. Exact details of what happened next I cannot recall, I just vaguely remember sporadic bolts of electricity and the ultimate failure of his machine followed by curses from an angry scientist.
“Damn! Damn! Damn!” He shouted, “Why didn’t it work!? Damn it, Boy! Why didn’t it work? Why didn’t my machine work!?” But the boy did not answer. He was dead.

I was in my room(False Awakeing) and had just "gotten up" from my nap. I felt incredibly sick, and went to go look at myself in the mirror. As usual my lights were off and my whole room had that same blue tint to it that it always does when the lights are off. As I came in view of the mirror, I looked at myself. I looked really sick as well, my face was a little red and you could tell that I was extremely tired. I also could barely breath, through my nose and my mouth.
It then occurred to me that because I was sick, I would get to skip workout day today, and this made me a little happy. I was so exhausted, and now I had to pee. I opened my door and walked into my restroom. Because of how tired I was, I just sat down on the toilet seat to take a pee. As I did, I rested my arm upon the ledge of my window directly to my left. I pulled down some of the blinds and looked outside into the afternoon sky. It looked rather dull and boring(which rarely happens in my dreams, I've only experienced dull and boring things about 3 or 4 times in dreams). Because of this, I didn't think that I was dreaming at all.
After I finished my job on the toilet, I got up. I was too tired to lift my boxers back up, and for some reason, I had a shirt on. I started walking to my sink, but noticed that it wasn't there. It was completely gone. Instead, replacing where the 2 sinks in my restroom should be, was a huge window panel that stretched 10 feet wide. It was just like one of those sliding window screens that you can install in your house as an alternate entrance. I also saw a series of black panels, shoved to the side so that people could see through the windows.
At this point, I looked at my hands and thought, "Am I dreaming?" Again, I didn't think so because of how dull the sky looked. I then got distracted from seeing people outside in my driveway. I looked down outside, and saw a lady and her baby in a stroller. She looked up through the windows and I'm sure she saw my dong. I quickly got behind the black panels and started spreading them out so no one could see inside of the restroom. For some reason, I didn't spread them completely.
Suddenly, somehow my restroom extended and now there was another room attached to my restroom, directly in front of me(I know, kind of confusing). Now the lady and her baby in my driveway had turned into a cute teenage girl and her young sister. Now, I became semi-lucid, but still not fully lucid(I'm still not sure whether or not I became fully lucid). Anyways, I decided to stop hiding, and let my dong hang free in front of the teenage girl(no worries, we were about the same age). However, I kind of forgot that her sister was right next to her. :/
The teenage girl came up into the extra room that had just appeared next to my restroom, but we were still blocked by a wall that separated the 2 rooms. Somehow I talked to her, and she told me to stick my hand out the window and touch her hand so we could become "ultra-best friends"(it didn't occur to me that I was being ultra-friendzoned at that same moment). I stuck my hand out of the window and touched hers in the next room. Somehow the wall that separated us disappeared and the rooms became one.
I came into the room the girl was in and talked to her and her sister. They asked me if I could drive them around in my car, I said sure. With this, the teenage girls little sister gave me around 10 kisses on my right cheek. I then told the teenage girl, "Ooh , that's going to be hard to top.", in a way that made it sound like I favored the little girl more, just so I could get the teenage girl to do more. The teenage girl came up to me and gave me 3 kisses. I have no idea why, but this turned me on(lol) and my animal insticts became activated. I controlled myself.
Later we went outside and in my driveway now was a random van. The teenage girl knew this van and so I got inside along with them. We drove away to who knows where, and I didn't even know who was driving. I just went with the flow. As I was relaxing and enjoying the ride, I told the teenage girl that she was a good kisser(joking around) and she looked at me weird as though I just freaked her out and then she moved as far as she could to the left side of the seat to be as far away from me as possible. I felt kind of awkward from here on and just sat there and chilled.

I think I'm having a slight dry spell as DR is quiet bad lately, I've also lost a bit of motivation. Hopefully I will have another LD soon so I can gather some will again.

Dreams weren't very interesting, I was trying to hit some nuts with a baseball bat but I couldn't hit them unless I swung the bat over my head.

Last night I had some very vague fragments of dreams that weren't very interesting.

1. Viva las Vegas

I'm somewhere up high in a penthouse and I can look over a bright city somewhere in the desert that I call 'Las Vegas'. I tell my mother that even though it looks very nice, it's just another city.

I fell back asleep after remembering these dreams so bear with me

my rating 4/5

+First dream is on a foggy day, i am driving in my truck to a camping location. i have friends and family following behind me in another vehicle. we drive through a strange trail of twists, turns and bridges. we see other people camping as we drive by. the grass has some gravel in the tire marks of old tracks so we know where to go. otherwise it is not maintained, the grass is tall. we come over to a bridge, very narrow but the vehicles drop down a few inches once off it because the bridge drops abruptly. we drive off to the campsite. I dont remember much about the actual site itself, i remember walking around observing the landscape. eventually we decide to drive back, and we get as far as the bridge but the vehicles cant drive back over it because of the drop off,so i get out and decide to cross the little water way under the bridge. it is very short but i find out it gets super deep. its also cloudy water. i am handed a heavy pack and it almost sinks to the bottom so i grab it and get out and search for a new way over.

+This dream was kind of creepy. I was with someone, in an old abandoned house in a old style town, like almost colonial times. the house was barren of almost everything, at least in the main areas like the foyer and the hallways, was just dirt and dust everywhere as if wind had blown it around over things. we had to leave because we were going to be found so we went back into this dark room full of candles, a few tables, and a skull, and had to blow out all the candles, making the room pitch black. while i was leaving i walked by a pool of water that must have been from leaking roof or pipes, it was in a little pocket in the dirt. a man and two woman appeared and started talking to me,i walked over till my feet were ankle deep in the water, the man and one of the woman disappeared, and the third woman tried pulling me under water but i broke free from her grip and got out of there. i was then out at some old place that looked like my grandfather's liquor store with a friend. it was the dark of night and the only light was out front. we walked out back where there was a crowd of pale creepy looking people staring at me. i stopped for a moment and i think my friend left. one guy with a shaven head and a jailbird outfit came over and started to attack me, saying something about leaving the house. i had no choice but to fight back. i pulled out my smith and wesson swat folding knife and retaliated. he said "nice try but i can just close this" not knowing the lock was engaged holding it open and i cut his hand, the then tried something that was very painful, like wow couldn't believe how real that felt for a dream, and my stomach hurt like crazy but i told my self keep calm, the military wont need someone who will break under pressure, and i used the knife, (leaving out details here), and killed him. another person tried attacking me but i just threw him far. then the dream ended.

+I got back up and fell back asleep and had another dream. first, i was in an old house know i have been in before. and was trying to explore all its room but i was limited trying to keep my younger brothers away from going so they wouldn't be lost or hurt. so i never got to the room i wanted to. i saw part of it and knew ive seen it before, and don't know why i did not become aware of it. i eventually ended up at a colorful museum and play place type thing where i climbed colorful stairwells into other rooms where i found a box, but i had to climb up ropes to get it, which i did. the feeling of climbing the rope felt pretty real. i eventually got the box but never looked inside.

i have seen this type of building before many time in dreams, the one directly above. or at least, the color scheme is put on a lot of buildings. i also saw an old house i have not seen in a long time in my dreams. both are not real places but memories of places i created in dreams.

What a shame, the comp is over now - it was such great fun!! I can only hope, that I'll keep up the journalling further on...


Going for a final effort I wanted to achieve my first WILD per WBTB - nope, again not, I gave up after 25 min., rolled over and got a DILD in the following dream.

LD #1: I become lucid in a car-park - again I can't say, what did it, just like that. Nose-plug - yepp. I want to have a stable dream, before I do something, so I walk about doing as if nothing was, like I had before. Taking care not to interact with anything too closely, hehehe... Okay - next thing planned is my personal task, teleportation to an alien planet with meet and greet with the inhabitants. I do it by spinning very fast and imagining exotic landscape.
When I stop, I am indeed somewhere else and have really fine optics, but it's not exotic at all - I'm on a beautiful endless field of hip-high grass, but looks very much like earth, and nobody around. So I think - okay - this is another planet, because I say so, and proof will be the alien, I will summon. There's nothing, from behind which I could have her come around, so I try this thing with hand behind my back for the first time. But nothing happens, I try for a while and wake up then...

My very first teleportation ever!! Should have just put that as personal task - typical over-ambition biting me in the butt! But I'm very excited about it - there will be a lot of lucid spinning coming up!!

Dream #1: I'm back at the house - it gets on my nerves, in hindsight, but I'm always happy about finding it in the dream. Somebody else lived in the bungalow, and that was what we might get back, even while people have bought it. They made a hole in the front wall for a big door to the garden, behind it they had created a room, which you could use as a winter-garden. Whatever. The grass in the garden was over knee-high, and I wanted to get out the scythe for cutting it, but then came from the neighbouring house a guy on a mowing machine, sitting on it, driving it, and he did the job for me. When he was through, there were tons of dandelion plants, just the green stuff, and I went at them with some digging tool. Then a girl comes around, says hi - wants to play darts with me - well - of course!! But we don't have a board, we have some weird plastic thing, lying on the floor, and throw at that.

Dream #2: Theoretically I am at university, but turns out, I can't understand the stuff, and have to go back to school. I first think, this will be repeating the last class, but turns out they put me in 8th grade, and tried to not tell me about it. Well - yeah - not much worth of describing - it's about maths, what I didn't understand, and I tried to get books for that, and didn't help. I meet a friend from school, who does some boring job at the reception of a hostel, and think, naa - you got to go through with it, not to end up in a job like hers, but it's humiliating to be with the kids in a class. Yeah - last scene - I miss the bus despite running all out...

Dream #3: It has elements from the book I started at the moment 'The Bohr Maker' by Nagata Linda - great science fiction. It's about a nano-technologically modified guy, illegally so, and he tries to be allowed to be left living. He has something, which helps him breathe back his own oxygen continuously by using a sort of collar, which covers up his mouth and nose and ears, too. He's hiding in our flat from the police, and my husband comes up with the idea of feeding him into his computer, and then manifesting him as a cartoon-figure, which jumps off from the screen, looking like Super Mario, and maybe 15 cm of height. He's doing all these sounds and pirouettes and things, like in the video game. For some reason, this is allowed, and he's very happy.

Fragment #1: I said not long ago, I wouldn't dream of posting - since then, I do! Yeah - about the dangers of lucidity - I forgot, what somebody saw as a problem, and who all posted replies to that...

Fragment #2: On my way home, and again, there's another way, which I am sure, I saw before in another dream, but which doesn't exist.

Ah, but not that doctor, sorry.

I am driving over a bridge with my wife. I make some mistake and suddenly our car is flying through the air. I ask my wife what I should do, but then decide not to land in the water (as I once heard that landing a plane in the water is a terrible idea). I realize, as the ground is rushing up to meet us, that I've made an error. I apologize to my wife before impact, as I believe we are about to die. She tells me to try to land the car as best I can. We hit the ground and crash hard.

Lawrence Fishburne appears in an EMT outfit. I tell him to rescue my wife and he does. Later, I am asking him how I could have possibly survived the crash. He says the "doctor" . . . "cleaned my kidneys!" In dream I think this is amazing, as I only thought kidneys could be removed. He said "the doctor" considered taking them, but then just decided to clean them out. Lucky me! I ask about my wife. He says there is fluid in her lungs and "the doctor" is still working on her.

But perhaps . . . perhaps it was The Doctor?

Otherwise, a few more day residue and job-related dreams. In one of them, I am furious at my wife for making me lose at a board game. She drew a "betrayal" card from the stack, which allowed her to tell everyone what my hand was! Also a bit of a fragment here of a dog turning over and over and over against a closed door.

Really wishing I had pulled an LD out of that one!
