side notes

18-07-11 I am playing some sort of baldur's gate. I am looking at a guie for the ending fight. I am getting there and although I could have explored bit more I decide to just go for it. I seem to be a wizard of some description and the final fight is me vs. a council of other wizards. I primarily use timestop and sommoning spelss and AoE to try and interrupt their spell casting as much as possible.
…

I am in some weird scenario that incorporates three different tv shows at once. I know actors from all shootings and eventually the seperate shows merge into one because the various actors move from one set to the other. There is no script for this, so the director tells the actors to simply improvise.

I am also getting married to someone, it is somewhat arranged or being kept secret though I think I am happy enough with her. It could be that I have met her on the internet.

We are walking across a narrow bit of water, over to two girls. They want beer and Daryl tells them that he can provide that so we go back and get them. We start with giving them half a crate in a cardboard box and talk about the fact that we can get them more if needed. They would like that and I am supprised they haven't asked for the price yet.

There is a magician and he is sort of demonstrating an aldo cardtrick besides the point that he does not include someone from the audience or use a full deck. The instruction goes on how math is used to complete the trick. However he is always in dialouge with the audience and he seems to slip up a couple of times although I have the feeling that it is intentional. Towards the end he is setting his sofa oin fire and asks someone to come and blow the smoke. I volunteer, but unfortunately I wake up as I am making my way behind the couch.

Notes: Haven't slept well at all over the past couple of nights. This one is no different as I spent probably half of my nine hours worth of sleeping on being eaten by mosquitos (Which inevitably lead me to move sleeping spots and generally being awake trying to fend them off).

I was playing CSS on my laptop, except I was on a large field, I could sprint, I had no weapons, it lagged, and a large godzilladinosaurthing was trying to kill me and about 20 others.
Next thing I remember is that I was in some 'international' game. Apparently a massive free-for-all war with small squads. I found a hideout and entered it. On the floor was a pile of golden coins, which I picked up. On the way out, I saw a dead-looking ghost. It was hanging on a spear stuck through it's throat. I left the hideout.
I now found myself in a clearing in the woods. There was a obstacle-racing track and lots of people cheering.
On the left I saw a cute girl standing on a platform, jumping, cheering, and persuading people into participating in the race. She saw me, and with a just as happy voice said;
"Hey I know you! You're the one who stole our gold. I tell you what. Don't you want to light up that guilty conscience? Just take the track and we'll forget about the whole thing" and pointed to the abstract wooden obstacle-course.
At first I was like "NOPE" but moved against the entrance anyways.
I started running the course, and my one competitor was ready on the track as well. I was in front of him the whole time, while he taunted me by talking to me as if I were a woman. By the end, he somehow managed to slip past me at an inhuman speed, meaning he won the race.
By the exit of the course, I saw Will Smith and his son (named 'Jesus' in my dream), as well as the cute girl whose name I don't know .. The girl said "Don't be so sad. Cmon, let's see how Jesus does". Her spirit, happiness and enthusiasm was really inspiring. I can't really believe she came from my mind, because I am completely different. I should be more like her.
The girl walked back to her platform, as seven-year old Jesus was about to compete against another seven-year old. I walked up to her and we held an arm around each other. She had a nice perfume and a rain-jacket on. We cheered for Jesus who was now running the course. The competing kid banged it's head into an obstacle, and I shouted "RUN JESUS", but the girl said "Be fair". Not much further into the course, Jesus banged his head too, sat down, and started crying as well. The other kid kept running, so Will Smith went onto the track and grabbed him.
Jesus completed the course, and I was now at the exit with him, Will, and the girl. A heavy swarm of those thin wasp-looking bees (flowerbees) that can't actually sting, surrounded the girl. They lifted her up in the air and they all disappeared. Will and I then went on joking about how she was a niggerbee. (No racism intended!)

I seem to be having a lot of dreams recently having to do with rather school, video games or cartoons, maybe my dream signs?

I don't truly remember how this dream even started out, though I remember it happened as I took a nap at about 4:11 pm. I remember the smallest bit about being in my friends grandma's pool, a place I had been to quite a lot as a child. In the pool, I saw that SpongeBob had been drowning (which seems just dumb) while the cast of Family Guy happened to be drowning with them. After looking back on this, that is strange because I have not watched those shows in about three years. They were eventually captured at some point in which then they were tied to wooden planks, and I recall something causing the planks to hurt them in a certain amount of time. Spongebob got free, somehow, and rescued the rest of the characters, except for Lois Griffin who was saved only after she had been slightly injured from the planks breaking on her leg. A credits screen soon came up, at the seemingly perfect time as I woke up only four hours later.

15-07-11 No recall. Been drunk and stoned.

Whooooo, another MILD attempt last night. I woke up around 630 AM, stayed up 10 minutes, and the result was a sort of lucid dream about an hour later. The 10 minute thing seems to be working pretty well, but I may need to stay up a little longer or be a bit more active during the 10 minutes, because I still feel like I'm falling asleep almost instantly when I lie down again.

Then, this morning when I got out of bed, at first I didn't remember that many dreams, but I got into a strange half-sleepy mode where I could suddenly remember a LOT of dreams from last night. This happens to me sometimes at night when I'm falling asleep, I'll suddenly start remembering a bunch of old dreams in a chain. Anyways, here they all are!

I began the dream in a sort of grocery store. After a few moments, I was (partially) lucid; I think I did a nose-plug RC. I tried to stabilize everything and get into a clear mindset. I remembered one idea I had to help me focus and become fully conscious: remembering some things I'm doing in the coming week IRL. I only managed to recall two of them before losing attention, and I don't remember exactly what they were. I also switched to thinking in French for a while.

A friend of mine appeared to my left, and showed me a table with a whole bunch of food and stuff, inviting me to dig in. I started with a weird sort of bar of hard candy, but it tasted very strange so I spit it out. I think I had a slice of pizza and just generally pigged out because I knew it didn't matter and it's always interesting to see how things will taste in a dream.

After this, my recall of the dream is blurry for a while, I remember an Asian girl, a large lake that I considered swimming in but eventually decided not to, and some alternation between day and night. Eventually I ended up in a sort of motel room. The dream got pretty strange from there, so I'll pass on writing up the rest.

This whole dream occurred in some kind of large underground mall/subway station. In the dream, I would repeatedly have to run and jump really fast to get from one side of the station to another. There was an elevator on both ends of the mall that I would go into. I would sprint, slide along rails and doing a whole bunch of acrobatic stuff I probably couldn't pull off in real life.

It was all pretty fun, but I was also scared because I was being chased (by police and other characters), so basically running for my life. Sometimes there was this sort of witch/hag dressed all in black after me. She would occasionally catch up with me and grab me. She had a kind of magical touch and whenever I came into contact with her it was like I was being electrocuted -- I could barely move and it was quite painful. Thankfully, I would get rescued by a mysterious woman who would fight off the hag whenever this happened, buying just enough time for me to run to the escape elevator, which took me back to the start.


Once, while in the elevator I saw a tiny inscription near the buttons, that said something about how this "game" worked: every 3 rounds there would be a more difficult, advanced round (which is where the hag usually showed up). Apparently after 3 advanced rounds it would all be finished. On the last run that I remember, near the start I was approached by a well-dressed Asian man. He apparently worked for the evil corporation that was after me, but had decided to betray them. He led me into a secret area of the mall, and I don't remember what he showed me there.

I was in a city, though at times I was semi-aware of it all being part of a video game. I knew there was some sort of fixed plot I was to follow, somehow related to the movie the Sorcerer's Apprentice (which I haven't seen but whose title I saw the other day). There was a weird tension to the dream, so for a while I was intentionally just walking around doing nothing, kind of afraid of actually starting the plot. I rode on a bus for a while and just looked around, surprised that the city was so big (ie, that the game had such a vast area to explore).

Eventually, I ended up in a dark, creepy bathroom. The stalls were filled with junk, and in one of them I found a really strange pencil. It was somewhat pink and decorated, and it was apparently a wand of great power. I remember taking it, but nothing after that.



And some fragments:

- I was at home, juggling a soccer ball in the back yard. I accidentally kicked it too hard though and it went over the fence. I was about to go get the ball, but the dream ended.

- I was looking on facebook, and I was surprised to see that an old friend was participating in a competition that I'm entering.

- A strange dream where I was exploring what was supposed to be a college campus, but it really just seemed to be some place in the mountains. I think I had a few moments of lucidity, then the rest of the dream just got blurry and weird.

- I was "in" a game similar to minecraft. In front of me was a long bridge, and at the end of the bridge was a giant red sort of laser beam. My friends told me that it was a portal to hell, and that I should just jump into it. When I did, I died and all my stuff dropped down far below. I respawned and tried to go get my stuff, but down where it had fallen was a whole bunch of lava and only a few stepping stones and water. I managed to get down there but struggled to escape and I think I died a few more times.

- A dream where I ended up back at several old places where I supposedly used to live (they were somewhat similar, but none of them actually exist): one was a tiny place with two beds, with another room down the hall for doing things besides sleeping. There was also a depressing 1-room lodge.

Damn that was annoying, I'm walking around my house and suddenly I'm thinking about my underwater inner world, then I'm in it.

The armored figure had a lot of friends, I had caught glimpses, but I didn't believe it, I was exploring the ocean floor, there were apperantly dead armored figures everywhere. they came to life, I gutted one of them after I opened its armor with an exploding ice crystal. I knew there were too many to fight, the were all relatively powerful, I switched to reploid form and Jetted to the surface of the water, they grabbed my feet and tried to pull me down, I yanked them out with me, as a giant spherical mass of enemies. I threw them out of the shield, attached thrusters to them, and forced them out a portal that I think went to the moon. I now have a headache from closing the portal behind them, and the worst part is there may still be more of the fuckers.

I am a grandfather!

Yesh.

I am hoping I will be able to edit this post for importation information like dream signs in the future.

Edit: It seem like I can indeed edit but this system have a description area...I still keeping this post for the reason above. The description should just be that, there no need to list all of my information on it. So with this thought I believe I am using the system correctly and did ok. Yay.

I think i recall dreaming about a TV talkshow. And they where hosting Shared dreamers to come tell their shared dream experiences on TV.

Took a nap this morning.

I dreamed i was in a park talking to people. I was thinking about lucid dreaming and i hopped on my bike to ride away. Then i noticed this huge billboard sign saying : "NOTHING BEATS LUCID DREAMING, DV FORUM"

I'm like.. wow how didn't i notice that sign. I guess lucid dreaming is getting populair if there are billboards like that noawadays. Wait a minute ! I pinch my nose and i'm able to breathe.
But fuck.. i'm back in my bed. I was vaguely aware of that the whole time actually. Seeing both scenes at the same time. I didn't bother pinching my nose in bed. I was pretty sure i woke up. I just tried to get back in the dream, without success.

I was at Lili's house (in my dreams I am a lot of times in Lili's house lately ) and I suddenly woke up (Ah there we go...no RCs! I'm a dumbass ) and went to her room.
She said:
>Why didn't you told me you can't sleep?
I said:
>What the heck do you mean?? It's like 8:00 AM and I fell sleep at 11:00 PM (In my dream I calculated it wrong and I said I've slept 9 hours )!
She gave me a little oven....NO! You don't understand! A really little oven. It was toy looking. She told me to fry some eggs with it (Weird I know! ). I didn't actually expected it to...work, but when I opened it, it actually started to be warmer.
She gave me then a little faucet and a sink attached to it. It worked too and I washed my hands in it.
Then I opened the TV. I saw on the news that Lili's house was attacked by some terrorists and her niece had thrown herself at the window trying to save herself and actually survived.
I tried to copy her and see what it would had looked like if I was in the same situation (You sure don't want me to mention that I epic failed...do you?)

For those who may be wondering "WHO THE FUCK IS LILI?!?!?", she is not that important. She is just one of my mom's friends. Not very important. ^_^

Dream 1: In my first dream last night, me and my friends had all turned into my animals... Body swapping is something that has never been in any of my dreams.
Cay was my cat, Sophie. Their both clumsy and have fluffy hair.


I was my cat, Penny... not really sure what happened there. That cat is evil. So maybe its because neither of us is a people person.


My friend D.C. was my dog Lady, both very protective of the people they love.


And my friend L.G. was my dog Brandy, they both love to eat.


Now, naturally my friends are freaking out that they have turned into my pets. I however was more concerned with what happened to my pets spirits and our bodies. We were all back on my bed in my bedroom. I told my friends to look for their bodies. I found my own body asleep under my parents bed, which is where Penny hides 90% of the time. Cay's was on the countertop in the kitchen, where Sophie likes to sleep sometimes. D.C. found her's outside in the ditch that Lady likes to nap in. And L.G. found her's in Brandy's favorite chair asleep. I was first thankful that they were all asleep and not up roaming around and causing trouble. Then I began to wonder how in the hell we got this way and how we were supposed to get back in our real bodies before they woke up. We searched my house and while I was in my brother's old room I found an amulet, but woke up because Sophie had jumped on my bed and began walking around on my chest.

Dream 2: Not really appropriate to write about on the internet. So were just going to move onto the next dream.

Dream 3: I "woke up" in Cay's bed with Cay at the end of the bed watching Old 97's youtube video's on her laptop. She's been obsessed with Rhett Miller lately. I did my nose reality check like I've been doing every morning and realized I was dreaming. I nudged Cay with my foot, a gesture that normally would have thrown her off the end of the bed. She didn't budge. I teased her about her tired appearance and called her by her nickname, Jim, to see if she was the psycho Cay I'd come to know in my dream. She teased back and called me by my own nickname. A good sign that she wasn't crazy in this dream. I decided to just lay in Cay's bed until the dream ended. I wasn't really up for adventuring anywhere tonight.

Shortly after though, Cay's mom comes in and tells us to pack to go to Florida. Neither of us questioned why we were going to Florida or why I had such a large amount of clothes at Cay's house. On our way to Florida (which only took about ten minutes) I noticed Aaron in a red Dodge Neon that looked just like my brother's, Git-R-Done magnet and all. Since I wasn't panicking I teleported into Aaron's car, this didn't confuse him at all and he just smiled at me. "Hey," I greeted him. "What's up?" He said. "You going to Florida too?" I asked. "Yup. We were supposed to meet at the hotel. I guess you became lucid though." So apparently my DC knows the course of my dreams. Which is good to know. He turned the music up to loud for us to carry on a conversation, so I sat silently listening to Say Anything, most likely what was playing on my ipod since I fell asleep listening to it.

I found Cay when we arrived at the hotel that was directly in front of the beach, with Aaron right beside me. He has a habit of running off and sleeping in random places. As soon as I found her though it turned dark outside and the water in the ocean turned black and it was all very ominous. "Op, we should get to higher ground," Aaron commented and strolled off towards the elevator. I grabbed Cay's hand and started to pull her with me but she wouldn't move and said, "I wanna go to the beach, Spock." I looked at her in disbelief. Maybe she was a psycho. I managed to call Aaron back over to where she was and shove her into the elevator and to the highest floor of the hotel.

I watched as waves consumed the beach and came closer and closer to the hotel. The electric went out as soon as the first waves hit the base of the hotel. Cay was complaining about no air conditioning when tons of people came through the stairs door. I opened the door to one of the suites and the three of us locked ourselves in there away from the people. I struggled not to have a panic attack, because even though I knew it was a dream it still scared me. One of my worst fears is drowning. I remembered a way to wake myself up though and woke up after about six or seven attempts. My fears always seem to find a way into my dreams. I am not okay with that.

Non-Dream/Lucid/Non-Lucid/Dream counter

DREAM 1: I was walking in the street with Bear (from Bear in the Big Blue House). Before going to his house we decided to visit our friend (it was...a mouse ). At first I though he would be afraid of me because I'm big (not like Bear is not ). After we said hello to each other, Bear presented me to the mouse. He said I'm Quarter and I was like "WTF". I tried to tell them my name is not Quarter but no one actually listened me (-_-). While we were still going to the house I told him I'm Christian not Quarter.
We decided to go through my school because it was the nearest way to the house . Bear went to the left side where he met his family and friends and I went to the right where I met my peers waiting to see in what high schools they entered. Simona came in and asked me what's with the bear. I told her all about Bear and stuff. She laughed a bit at first .
Then George came in (When I talk about George imagine a big purple monster with fangs all over his face and a cock in his head...that's how he looks like in the real life!! ... Just kidding . You can imagine him as an ugly nerd). He wouldn't let me go with Bear. Simona saw him and kicked him right in the butt . It was my occasion to find Bear.
After finding him, he wanted to go in the right side. I was a little bit worried that my peers would laugh if they see me walking around with a big bear . I told him "Bear, why don't we go left? It's faster there!" (You imagine, I'm not that idiot to make him feel bad and just tell him that I was worried that my peers would laugh if they see him). He agreed and we went to the house.
DREAM 2: I was at the home. I went to my room and I saw coming from there little rat looking animals. I was a little worried and I called my mom to come here and see what's going on. She said that those things lived on our house for a long time. They were 2 and one came on my shoulder. When I saw him from a closer look he was actually a monkey...more likely a mini-monkey. He was like 2 cm small.

It might be just stress, or lack of sleep, but I have been having trouble remembering dreams lately. They all have been hazy ones that I can barely remember. Hmmm

I was up for about an hour and a half with my son with the intention of trying a WILD whenever he took his nap. I browsed the forums and read a couple WILD tutorials and threads. Also, drank half a spark, which is an energy drink, but I was hoping it would help me maintain consciousness. It has about 500mg of Choline, and significant amounts of other vitamins. Hit the bong too. <3

So I lay down and I'm pretty relaxed already. I tried holding tension in my arms first and released and to the legs and feet, then my neck (which I find is hard to do.) I felt even more relaxed after doing this. After a few minutes I started to do reverse blinking, trying to keep my eyes relaxed and not force them open, eventually I noticed I had stopped blinking altogether and my mind was clear. I saw a few images and something disturbed me, I felt something crawling on my leg that I absolutely couldn't ignore. I decided to flip over to my side and shortly after I found myself in an unnatural darkness. I had my head between two pillows (really comfortable, imo.) I knew I had to be dreaming, but there was nothing in front of me. I tried to make the room as I remembered it appear and started to see the outlines but it faded and I was awake. I changed positions again and moments later I was on a bicycle headed uphill. There were at least two other people in front to my right and I passed a girl I know and was wondering if she should be riding pregnant, but even when I passed her I had a little lucidity. I wasn't exactly lucid to control what I was doing, but there was definately a difference. As I started to go up a steep hill following the others I passed a dip in the road, which I thought was going to be a little harsh, but I ended up gliding right along with the curve of it. Then as I approach the top of the hill, the others are at the peak, I realize how dangerous this is. I was waiting for a car to pop up, but it didn't. I went over the hill and the others had all gotten to the right because there was a curve going to the right behind a cliff, I couldn't see what was coming. Though I wasn't afraid really, and that's why I think I was semi-lucid. I was going to fast to go to the right side of the road, so I went along the left side and was prepared for an oncoming car, but I didn't see one. I got to the bottom and I was all the way on the shoulder of the road, opposite from the other riders. I woke up.

I changed positions again back to my left side. I think this is where I truly KNEW I was in paralysis. My right foot had gone completely numb, and I could hardly feel it. Then I felt it lift in the air and I knew what was happening, but that's when it felt like someone was pulling the blanket off of me and trying to pull me with it. My stupid ass thought it was my husband trying to wake me up, for a moment I knew what was going on but then I made myself wake up just to be sure. I even shook awake.

I think I'm getting closer if I keep trying, and this is the most success I've had, if you call it success. It's definately progress. Any more tips are welcome, tell me if I did anything wrong, or something else to try? Thanks for reading.

I was rather upset last night when I went to bed so that could explain why I wasn't lucid at all in my dream, but I won't blame my lack of lucidity on my relationship problems.

My dream started off in my high school where I was in the science hallway with Cay (R.C. in previous entries). Now, this is kind of important to know, the hallways of the upstairs of our high school is shaped like a giant square and it branches off in a couple of places. When I'm actually in school and we have time before class, me and my friends just walk around this square multiple times, so that's what me and Cay were doing. Meanwhile one of our teachers, Mr. R, who happens to be Cay's cousin, keeps trying to sell us pencils. Really crappy pencils at that. And he's starting to get annoying and eventually starts following us.

Then later another one of our teachers, Mr. M, tells us we need to go to the cafeteria right away to receive some award. When we get to the cafeteria it's not really our cafeteria. It's more of a giant stadium and in the center of the stadium is the temple and while I'm staring at the temple Mr. M is dragging me across to the other side of this giant stadium thats filled with a hell of a lot more than the four hundred students that go to my school. The person holding my hand shouts my name and when I look back instead of it being my psychology teacher its my brother's bandmate F.W. Maybe Mr. M turned into F.W. because their both redheads? Who knows.

When I look away from him now though, were standing in the parking lot of some rather shitty hotel. Apparently my brothers band has a show somewhere nearby and the band is staying there with my brother's girlfriend and me and Cay. Their guitar player never seems to show up in the dream though, and neither does their screamer. Both pretty important characters to their band considering their a metal band. Oh well. Anyway, F.W. takes me to the hotel room that my brother, his girlfriend, and their drummer are staying in. F.W. informs me here that me, him, and Cay will be staying in the room right next door. Then I notice that it's really dark outside and I feel really tired. I go to the hotel room where I crawl into bed and Cay is already asleep in hers. F.W. had already told me he'd sleep in the floor. He lied. Shortly after as I'm dozing off to sleep F.W. weasles his way into my bed and starts trying to cuddle with me. I nudge him. "F**** get out of my bed." "Aww. I don't like the floor K******." "Like I care? Get off of me." I then shove him into the floor. I hear him get into Cay's bed and then hear a whimper and Cay say, "Please go away you ginger." Sorry for any redheads that just read that and were offended.

I close my eyes for a little while. When I open them I'm in a snowy forest and there is a person I watch on youtube trying to kill her brother. For whatever reason. She's running from him at first and then for him. He ends up in a van that Aaron was sleeping in. While he's hiding there, Aaron wakes up and is watching this guy with tired eyes and dishelved hair. Shiloh (the youtuber, her name on youtube is Draculoh) takes a drill out of somewhere, drills the window, then through her brother's head. I mutter ew and lay back down on the ground.

When I open my eyes again I'm back in my brother's hotel room on a couch with F.W. who's playing video games. He asks me to play Guitar Hero with him, which I try to decline because frankly, I suck at it; but he insists and throws the controller at me, so I do. Meanwhile my brother is modeling clothes for his girlfriend and for some reason trying on some of her clothes. Cay walks into the room with a bloody drill that I notice as the one Shiloh was using. I look at her confused, point at the weapon and am about to question it when I wake up.

I had been thinking about the Sims since people had been talking about it on chat, and I dreamt about it haha!

I was creating a house in the Sims 3. I wasn't on the computer but I was actually looking down from the sky like I was in the game. I was designing a good looking house and kept getting annoyed when paper boys kept throwing papers at my house! Eventually, the news papers stacked up until they filled up my whole lot!

Failed WILD

I got up around 4 AM to do KingYoshi's WILD technique, but my allergies were terrible! I tried to lay still for about 30 minutes but everything was itching and so uncomfortable I gave up and took an allergy pill. I'm going to try again tonight, hopefully with no allergies!
