    1. Curiosity

      Nondream - Lucid - Nonlucid

      WILD!
      I actually wasnt planning on doing a WILD, It wasnt even a WBTB, it just randomly happened while I was just trying to get to sleep.
      So I went straight to bed at around 11 like I usually do, not even thinking about lucid dreaming.
      and somehow, as soon as I hit SP, my mind just 'woke up' and I knew what was happening.
      Sweet, I just took all the hard work out of WILDing

      It was SP but I wasnt just hearing random stuff this time,
      I was listening to my dad lecture me, cool stuff.
      I reminded myself to stay as calm as possible, and ofcourse..
      My heartbeat starts going Nuts.

      My heart starts beating extremely fast, i mean like machine gun fast. Its never even beat this fast in real life.
      Crap. I was gonna wake up for sure.
      Wellllllll, I DIDNT wake up, I guess it was just some prank,
      Good game subconscious, good game.

      I finally felt the dream coming, and that familiar buzzing feeling of finally entering it.

      Im standing in my room, funny how most of my lucids always start in here.
      I remember to stabilize, and stabilize I did.
      I made sure to use all my senses, I looked around at my room, I rubbed my hands together,
      I sniffed the air a few times, though I did forget about sound, but there wasnt anything to really listen to anyways.
      I let myself become more aware of my surroundings.
      It worked, amazingly. I actually felt the dreams stability, and even my vision was decent.
      Then it hit me, how should I say this, I really really really wanted to try um, Lucid.. 'Love making'
      Im not a perv I swear, I was just curious yknow :)

      I stepped through my window, it felt natural by now,
      And found myself flying through the side of a hotel, there were a bunch of balconys,
      but I ofcourse was dodging them all like a boss.
      I was flying pretty fast too, or at least faster then I usually do, but I wasnt really thinking much of it.
      It was a nice sunny day, there were some interesting figures standing on each of the balconys I passed,
      unfortunately I cant remember any details.

      I made my way to an opening, It was a big area overlooking the ocean,
      It was full of tables and chairs, like some restaurant had just set up near it.
      There were plenty of people, this is perfect I thought, and landed from my flight.

      My eyes were busy sweeping back and forth around the crowds, a smirk clearly stamped on my face,
      I saw a girl my age, I knew her, I used to go to school with her, this was it.
      The thing was though, she was surrounded by a group of guys, who I knew to be kids from their school, I walked up anyways.
      I went straight to her, she looked up at me and smiled, I knew what had to be done.
      I took her by the hand and carried her, and looked for a more private place, I didnt wanna do it out in the open..

      Though looking back I guess I shouldve just done that, It was a dream after all.
      I started walking away from the scene, carrying my prize in my arms,
      and ofcourse, the guys she was with werent too happy I was walking away with their girl, and immediately started chasing after me.
      Great. Well, I started running, why I didnt just blast them with some cool energy attack, or even just fly away, I will never know.

      Up ahead I saw a bathroom, cool I'll hide in there..
      I sprinted to the mens section, then realizing they could still follow me in here, I corrected myself and ran into the girls section,
      And sure enough they stopped right outside the door, which was wide open by the way,
      and started moaning and whining about how they couldnt follow me in, yay dream logic

      The bathroom though was just Tiny.. And I was just some two inches from the open door,
      where the douches were being held back by some invisible force field, but I knew my shield wouldnt last forever.
      In front of me was a stall, this was the only way to get deeper into the bathroom, and finally get away from the guys chasing us,
      And to finally 'get to know' this girl I'd been carrying the whole time.
      I reached for the door handle, It was my time to shine

      ...

      Locked.
      SHIT. Why??!?!?!?!?!?! HOW could somebody be taking a piss at a time like This?!
      The guys behind us had woken up and viciously grabbed and PULLED me out of the bathroom,
      I fell backwards.. Falling
      , and landing on my bed, still mourning the loss of my prize..



      Well, at least I had a lucid dream

    2. 5 Second Lucid

      by , 06-24-2011 at 04:37 PM
      Nondream - Lucid - Nonlucid

      Well goodnews is, after Weeks of no lucids, I finally got one.
      Badnews is, it was about 5 seconds long.
      But since it was a lucid, I just thought I'd write it down.

      Another WILD, also, I did actually feel SP this time, it wasn't anywhere near the more intense SPs i've read about.
      My body went numb, and i got sortve a falling feeling, it sounded something like a small fan, also felt some very light vibrations.
      The fan sound got slower and slower until I got into the dream.

      Im in a parking lot, some police scene is happening.
      The police have surrounded a car.
      I hear one of them say

      "EVERYONE, Take OFF your hats and RELAX!"

      Random.
      I try walking around, and for some reason i limp, I look like a zombie.
      I think about stabilizing, but sadly.. I fade out

    3. My 2nd LD.. Finding DG + ToTM ?!

      by , 06-15-2011 at 06:42 PM
      Nondream - Lucid - Nonlucid

      How I pulled off Another LD, I will never know. This is the second LD in a row.
      Somehow.. It was another WILD + 2DEILD Chain(another 3 dreams).. Same as last night(which I do recommend you read :D),
      Although I did use the same technique as last night, even at the exact same time.
      I'm very surprised I remembered about ToTM in this dream,
      Not that it went so well..

      I'm starting to get why everyone says recall is so important for LDing,
      I've been kinda unfocused on it lately,
      which is why I forgot tons of this dream.

      I wake up at 5am as usual(note i do not use an alarm, I always naturally wake up at this time)
      I couldn't remember if I had any dreams at all.
      My stupid recall sucks.
      I try to do the same thing I did last night(which you can read about in my first DJ post :D)
      But without the counting and straight to the visualization.
      I was on my side, but my nose was really really bothering me,
      After a bit I rolled over on my back,
      WAM. LD.

      I enter the dream lucid,
      but I dont really remember this part of my dream..
      This part was actually pretty long,
      All I remember is the very end of it.
      I'm at some house, possibly my house,
      I remember wondering about what I'll do in this dream
      I run out of my garage onto the street, its pretty sunny.
      "DREAM GUIDE!!" (I've been very very interested in finding my DG)

      I get too excited, the dream fades out,
      Everything is blank, I feel my bed,
      though my vision is engulfed in white.
      I try holding onto the feeling of flying,
      I can feel it in my stomach, as if im still flying through the air.
      At one point I see myself in third person,
      but I dont remember if I was flying or just lying down.
      The backround of my vision remains white the whole time.
      I feel a dream coming, and i re-enter(DEILD#1)

      I zoom into a darker scene,
      I'm in some broken down basement, its pretty dark.
      I see broken down furnace in front of me(the kind with open slits in front, where you have to shovel charcoal into it)
      There are broken pipes everywhere,
      the floors pretty nasty too.
      I immediately make myself float through the ceiling,
      I don't want to stay in the basement.
      It takes a while to float up, I still haven't even mastered flying yet,
      It takes a while to get my whole body to ground level.

      It looks like the house wasnt even completed yet,
      Like it was either still being constructed, or it was broken down pretty bad.
      It had no walls, only the wooden pillars that hold a house up,
      but you could see completely outside.
      I float above the house for a little, looking around,
      its night, the landscape's very hilly,
      Its covered in some kind of pink/reddish flower.

      I land and start walking around.
      I see some kind of village,
      It was made up of wooden huts, and I think there was a fire in the middle.
      I approached it.
      As i got closer I see the village is inhabited by some kind of monster,
      They're each probably around 10 feet tall.
      They have arms, legs and a body,
      but their bodies were super buff.
      I think they were grayish, might've had fur,
      And I think I remember stripes on them too, red i think.
      They have huge horns on their heads,
      the horns grow out, and then curve up.
      I dont remember what their faces looked like.

      One of them sees me, and charges at me,
      Shiz. I start running as fast as i can.
      I yell "DREAM GUIDE!!"
      "Im here" Its a woman's voice
      I can hear her but I cant see her.
      Luckily it looks like I lost that monster thing,
      I yell out again "Where are you??!"
      "Im right here" she says
      I still cant see her, but i follow the voice.

      I come up to another village,
      its setup's the same as the monster village,
      But no monsters. Phew.
      I find the source of the voice.

      Its an old lady. Sigh. (I was expecting someone.. Hotter..)
      She has that short puffy grandma hair,
      she's pretty short too, a little below my chest,
      and she was just a litttttle on the chubby side, she had a deep tan to her.
      Well.. I guess she did sortve have a shaman kinda look to her,
      So you know thats cool too,
      "YOUR my dream guide??"
      "Yes" she says casually.

      She starts saying something about the monsters attacking(Im not good with remembering dialogue by the way)
      And sure enough a monster pops out behind one of the hills and runs toward us.
      Theres another man with us, standing right next her,
      I didnt really get a good look at him though,
      but he's short too, the same height as she was.
      He's the first one to charge at the attacker, he wields a sword.
      My DG(I should have asked for her name) tells me to attack, but im not sure how(until here I've never fought in a dream)
      The guy with the sword keeps the monster busy.
      I want to try an energy attack,
      I hold both my arms up, palms pointed at the monster.
      SHOOT I tell myself.
      A ball of energy launches from my hands,
      Its green, and about the size of a bowling ball.
      Direct hit! It lands right on the monsters chest, it flies backwards.
      Sweet!

      I dont really remember what happened after,
      but I think me and my DG talked a little bit more, nothing important, I hope.
      The dream fades around here,
      and in the exact same way as last time, I again re-enter the dream(DEILD#2)

      Im in a huge house, I live here.
      I see my parents and sister, I talk with them a little, cant remember exact conversations.
      The house looks really nice, there are huge glass windows everywhere,
      The rooms are really big too,
      I see a balcony.
      I walk towards it,
      Its pretty sunny now.

      "Now what am I gonna do?"
      Then, im not sure how, but it comes to mind,
      "How crazy would it be if I pulled of the Task of the Month in only my SECOND Lucid??"
      I decide to try it,
      I hop off the balcony, and right in front of me is a harbor/port, and its suddenly cloudy

      There are two big cargo ships in the port, I think about a shipwreck,
      one of the ships just sinks. Perfect!
      I jump right into the water, the harbor turns into a huge swimming pool.. Weird.
      There are a bunch of people swimming everywhere,
      but there are still cargo ships and boats in the water,
      must be a big pool.

      I swim to the side of the ship,
      Annd I DIVE.. Wait what?
      I cant dive.. Wtf.
      I try again.
      Its like the water wont let me go under..

      I start asking people.

      I ask another swimmer
      "How do I dive????"
      He looks at me and says
      "..Just dive"
      I CANT. I ask about 2 other people, and they tell me the same thing.
      Im getting annoyed.

      I see two guys in a small boat, I ask them the same thing.
      I think they gave me endless "Wait"s, but they never answer,
      And then they just drive their boat away,
      I yell "CMON YOUR MY SUBCONSCIOUS!!"
      Whatever. Stupid DC-__-

      I still cant dive, so I give up and decide to just explore the pool.

      Its pretty big, there are even a bunch pulleys and platforms everywhere.
      In the dream I knew how they worked, but now I dont remember,
      I did a bunch of stuff and talked to a bunch of people, cant remember details though.

      The pool had a downstairs, don't ask how.
      But there I was, it looks pretty cool,
      It kinda looked like a wooden cabin,
      cause you know, it was made outa wood.
      The inside was pretty big, the light were dimmed.
      I think there was a party going on, there were a bunch of people, just talking/chillin.

      I remembered about stabilizing the dream and trying to make it more vivid,
      I looked down at my hand, I had about eight fingers,
      I tried to focus and move only my real five fingers, and my hand went back to five fingers,
      But it turned to eight again when I looked away.

      I tried making my dream more vivid,
      I looked at my hand again, this time trying to focus on the little details,
      It worked!!
      I've never had a dream this vivid(It was actually still a little bit blurry, but I've never had it this vivid)
      I could see all the details of my hand, there was even a little of a glow on it from the lights.
      Even my usual tunnel vision had opened up pretty far(i think it was like that the whole dream, but i only noticed it here)
      I rubbed my hands together trying to stabilize.

      Then I tried smell,
      I took a deep breath through my nose,
      I didnt smell anything, but this is the first time I've consciously breathed in a dream,
      or used my nose.

      I run my hand along the wall,

      Unfortunately, I wake up. I try another DEILD, but this time I dont feel any more dreams coming,
      I get up and immediately write down the dream!
      (This is the same way I woke up in my first LD, always when I try to stabilize>_>)


      The dream was again, AMAZING. That had to be my Longest lucid yet! It felt like it was around 15 minutes, maybe longer :)
      I think its pretty good for only my second LD too :)
      Hopefully I can work on my recall so I can remember more of it next time!

    4. VERY FIRST (3) Lucids!

      by , 06-14-2011 at 06:27 PM
      Note: Night of June 13/14, AFTER site crash, this is not a repost

      Nondream - Lucid - Nonlucid

      Just a little background info on my dreams in general.
      My dreams aren't really vivid, at all.
      Actually they're pretty blurry, and I usually have tunnel vision in them. Im still working on it,
      and I still have alot of practice to do with my recall, just so you know.
      Onto my FIRST Lucid Dream!

      I wake up around 5am, which i usually do everynight, usually after a dream.
      After waking up in the middle of the night, I almost always try a WILD(and it usually Never works)
      Ive been doing this for every night since about a week ago, which is when I really started getting into lucid dreaming

      I lie down on my back and try to WILD, I lie there for what seems like Forever.
      But I continue hold the position, and try not to move through all of it.
      I am a little uncomfortable.
      I count my breaths, and I get all the way to 600, where I finally just give up.
      I'm exhausted and just try to get back to sleep normally, which by the way is usually on my side.
      But I do something a little different, I just start visualizing,
      I keep visualizing, just letting my mind go crazy, letting it flow.
      At first I just see blobs in my vision, but they get more and more realistic, and i start hearing the dream,
      It takes over.

      I'm in a pool, swimming with a bunch of friends, I didnt get a good enough look at them to find out who they were though.
      The pool looks just like my highschools pool.
      Im swimming across the center.. And I guess my shorts were just a little too big,
      They start falling off while I swim, I can actually feel them falling off,
      (I actually dont know if I entered the dream already lucid, or if This made me lucid.. So im not sure if it was some kind of visualization WILD or just a DILD)
      Well either way, I am forsure lucid at this point!!
      I think I actually yelled out

      "Im Dreaming!!"

      I dont actually remember how(darn recall), but now Im in my parents room.
      I get that feeling that something else is in the room.
      In the past, this feeling Always manages to scare me out of a dream, I always try to force myself out of it.
      I start fading out of the dream, actually trying to wake up.
      I do end up leaving the dream, I feel myself in my bed again.
      Im so stupid, I've read tons of DJs, posts, threads, etc. on Dreamviews about overcoming this stuff.

      Still not moving, I calm myself, and I manage to re-enter the dream(DEILD?)
      I am in my parents room again, but I'm not scared this time, and im still lucid! Thank God.
      So whats the first thing I do? FLY.
      I find a window to jump out of, and sure enough, I go right through it!
      Its a nice sunny day, I'm out on(or should i say above) my neighborhood street.
      See, this is my first experience flying, I didnt really know how,
      Just imagine someone swimming in a pool, but imagine that person two stories high above a street, thats me!
      It was Amazing, I felt weightless, just floating, ofcourse i had to keep kicking my legs.

      I fly for some distance and end up at some kind of construction plant.
      Everything is rust colored.
      There are a bunch of buildings and construction stuff everywhere.
      I see this thing, it looks someone took pipes and just twisted them around, kindve in a square shape.
      I remember about dream control.
      I want to try and turn it into a black cube,
      I put all on my focus on it and try to transform it, i try visualizing what it'll look like.
      Instead of turning into a cube, it just grows, the pipes grow out more and form more intricate patterns, but its not a cube.
      I try again, and it does the same thing.

      Around here the dream fades, and i end up doing Another DEILD!(Not bad for my first lucid eh?)
      I am now standing in my room, I really want to make the dream more vivid, I still have tunnel vision + its pretty blurry
      Somehow Im now holding some kind of glasses(dont wear glasses in RL), I know them to be "Dream Glasses"
      I put them on and for a second my vision become much more clearer!(I got this from a technique I read somewhere on the site)

      Like a maniac, I again jump out of my window.
      I fly for a little bit, and then I decide to try and teleport, I again didnt really know how,
      I try putting my right hand right over my eyes and thinking about where I want to go.
      I think, "Mall"

      I open my eyes and sure enough Im at a mall,
      And ofcourse it looks just like my local mall.
      I look down at my hand, I have two index fingers.
      My vision is again blurry, I try using the glasses again, I reach in my pocket and find them.
      I put them on, but it doesnt help as much as the first time,
      I try yelling for vividness, it works a little, but its still blurry.
      Then try looking at the details of my hand,
      At first I could see all of the details of my fingers very clearly, but as soon as i put my hand back down,
      It is unfortunately, blurry(and still somewhat in tunnel vision)
      But im used to it, all of my dreams are like this, so I dont see why it would suddenly change.

      I walk around a little bit, I dont really see any people,
      but then again I wasnt focusing at all on trying to find other people.
      Instead I ran my hand along the wall, to try and stabilize the dream.
      I could feel all the details of the wall along my fingers.


      Around here, the dream just ends, and I'm back in my bed.
      I again try not moving and try to enter another dream,
      but it doesnt work this time, I dont feel any more dreams coming.
      I woke up with a big smile knowing I finally went lucid, and immediately wrote down what I remembered,

      If you count the DEILDS, Those were my First THREE Lucids!
      (Only about 5/10 minutes in all, lol)
