    1. The dream is collapsing!

      Last night I had the best and most interesting dream in my life.
      It starts pretty boring, so if you want to skip to when I'm lucid, you can.

      I am in a barn with a middle aged woman, presumably my mother. I turn on the TV only to see a tornado warning. My "mom" freaks out. We spend a pretty long time preparing, and then my "mom" checks the news. She tells me that the tornado is definitely coming our way, because it knocked over the tornado props. I walk outside, and although the tornado should be really close, it's not. It dawns on me that there is no such thing as tornado props; that's ridiculous.
      I become lucid. For a little bit, I wait for the tornado. It doesn't come, so I bring it. I grab my shovel, (my favorite weapon) and fly to the tornado. Debris fly at me, and I hit them away with my shovel. At some point, I decide I don't want a fighting dream again, and should instead explore the environment. I shoot an energy bolt from my shovel at the tornado, and hover to the ground. My "mom" thanks me, and I quickly remove her from the dream so that I can focus on the dreamscape. After trying to feel, touch, see and smell the environment, I realize it is too fuzzy for anything realistic. I remembered from somewhere on this forum that shouting "CLARITY NOW!" can help. Well, it did. Gradually I could see more details in the grass. I improvised some other stuff, such as "FEELING NOW" and "SMELLING NOW" to help it get more realistic. I had to shout for my senses every three or four seconds, but I didn't mind. It was rewarding enough to have fun in the grass and feel my feet in the stream. After quite a lot of fun, I want to go to Disneyland. I remember wanting to dream about that awhile ago with no success, so I wanted to do it now. By this time I had been lying in the stream for a little bit, and when I got up, I expected Disneyland to be there, and there it was. I ran in, and walked around. I didn't go on any rides, because I was afraid that the jerking would wake me up. I was craving pizza, and I remembered a pizza place that I didn't go to last time I was at Disneyland. I went in there, and after yelling at the dream for me to taste a few times, I tasted some really good pizza. It wasn't exceptional like some would expect from a lucid dream, but it did have similarities to my favorite pizza, though not quite as crispy. I left the pizza place, and went to the futuristic gift shop that Disneyland has. It was then when the sun came up. Oh, the burn I felt as I thought I would loose this dream.
      The dream, to quote Inception, was collapsing! I was holding on to my dream with all I could as I tried to control my body in the real world without loosing the dream world. I was able to slap a pillow in front of the rays of sun in time, and though the dream was now very foggy, I was still not awake. After trying endlessly to make it clear again, it finally did. I was pretty happy with myself, and since I knew it would only be a matter of time until I actually wake up, I decided to do the last thing I wanted to do. Before I fell asleep last night, I had created a dreamscape in my imagination to make it easier to travel to the future. Obviously my subconscious wasn't paying attention, because it left out quite a few details that would have been awesome. Still, I explored it a little. I walked inside a skyscraper, and instead of using an elevator, it transported me to a floor. I walked into a room, to find it was a hospital room. It had an aquarium on the side of the wall, and the waiting chairs were floating. I was pretty satisfied with my dream, so I didn't fight it when my dog woke me up.


      It was quite an adventure.
