notes: i didn't do any incubations because I went to sleep so late! I dreamed of witches who chased me down

Witches on Broomsticks
The giant ogre has me and mom running back into my bedroom. I lock the door, knowing that can't hold an ogre out but maybe it'll buy us some time. I open the window and tell mom "jump out!". But she insists she can't. Instead she hops on the bed and hides under the sheets.

I keep yelling at her "jump out the window now!". But she keeps insisting that I go on without her. The door opens, I'm out of time. I jump out the window (its night time) and fly away. A gang of witches on broomsticks chase after me.

I don't remember much of this chase scene anymore. But at some point I hid behind a gas station and befriended a talking monkey. I let the monkey sit on my shoulders - his hands were free to help me. The witches find us again and we fly away again.

Its day time now and I see a school up ahead. I fly into the elementary, past the hallway with kids and quickly hide from the windows view. From my point of view I can see that the witches were hoovering outside the windows, looking for me.

I open the janitorial closet door which leads to another door, to another door which leads to the emergency exit. That led to a staircase. My monkey friend promptly reminds me "don't go down, go up!". Going down in an industrial staircase like this always leads to something nightmarish.

I go up the steps but there's no door for the next level! So I go back the way I came and try to find some other place to hide.

Eventually I walked into a room that was completely empty, except for one large oval table. It looked futuristic, like it was a giant oval computer. I walk up to the table, in the very center was a face. I couldn't tell if the face was robotic or wearing an ancient mask. Who ever he is, he's asleep in this table. I wanted to know more about this sleeping face.

Leaving the room, I run into a little black girl with braided pig-tails. She tells me this man had to be put to sleep, but one day soon he's going to wake up. Anyways, I look out the window and I don't see the witches. I fly right out, but it's a trap. The gang of witches were still there. I try to fight them but nothing I do works. So I just fly right back in the building.

This time the witches followed inside. They were thoroughly checking all the rooms so I kept switching my hiding places. For a while I hung out with the little girl and her classroom. Eventually I ran back into the room with the face - around this time I also noticed my monkey friend was non-existent.

The face was waking up, and he sounds real pissed! I shouldn't be here! Instead, I get the idea to hide under another table. I waited for the witches to follow me into the 'faces' room. I don't remember what happened next, but I finally got away, because the witches were busy battling the face.

I travel through weird landscape after weird landscape. Most of them were desert, rocky and epic feeling like from some sci-fi movie. That's when I get blasted with this nostalgic feeling "I remember this dream! I remember what happens next! I become lucid!". I was sure of it, in the next scene of the dream I'm supposed to become lucid....lol.....sigh.....

I pull out my dream journal and look for an entry that resembles this dream. I get frustrated because the events that lead to the next scene haven't happened yet. I feel as though I'm waking up.

Video Games with Funky
Instead my dream just morphs into something else. I'm playing fantasy role-playing video games with my friend Funky and others online. The video game starts out in those same epic landscapes I just flew through. There were dinosaurs, mindlessly eating and eating each other. Dragons and other fantastical creatures.

Our characters were leveling fast. I guess the boys got jealous and didn't like how fast me and funky's characters were leveling. They tell each other "don't let them play the next game!" and boot us out. My screen goes black! How rude! I turn to funky, she's fallen fast asleep still holding the remote control. I remember how strange it was to look at her asleep. I realize its because her breathing matched mine, it was more like staring at my body that was asleep on the bed.

I woke up after

August 17, 2013

short hand: midnight, lady informs me the gallery is ready, we leave together. parking lot. A fat lady can't fit through the door because my car is too close to her car. They struggle and struggle to get her in. I say, 'let me go first and then you can fit in your car'

3rd person point of view, racing down the mountainside at night to be the first in the gallery. gallery makes no sense. bookshelves all along the wall. Where do I hang my painting? We can only hang two. Suddenly my paintings are transformed into print books. I try to pin it, it rips. But another artist has hung multiple paintings and I'm jealous.

why am I stuck hanging two and he can hang multiple? wake up

Notes: night 3 of my 30 day lucid challenge. set the intention to remember all of my dreams, asked my dream dragon to help me realize the dream state, recalled three dreams

UFO-Thought it was real
Me and my family were on a hi-line train zipping through a big city, like new york. I think were on vacation. I looked out the train's window and noticed a large flying object next to me. Metallic and weird. It's the most bizarre UFO I've ever seen.

I take a closer look and notice there's no pilot. Instead it has a robot like RTD2 piloting it. Wait! I'm staring at a real UFO! I grab my camera and take pictures like crazy.

When we get to our destination I show off my photographs to everyone "I saw a UFO!". I was so happy to have photographic evidence.

Then I wake up pissed off it never happened. As I'm falling back asleep I focus on recognizing that I'm dreaming.

Just Ring Me Out!
Me and sis were in some underground shopping area, as if it's one of the quicky markets in the subway stations of new york. No windows no air. Its early morning, we just woke, were starving so we grab some breakfast food and take it to the counter to be rung out. The counter was outside the actual shop.

Two ladies start to ring me out. I hand them my debit card, they swipe and swipe but they're taking forever. Finally they tell me they can't process my order unless I give them my social security number. What a load of crap!

I tell them they're lying, "I work in retail, you don't need that information. Just use my debit already". We argue forever over the matter. They call up their manager on the phone to confirm how to ring me up. I'm getting really frustrated and I just want to eat my breakfast!!

Finally, after what feels like forever, they get off the phone with their manager and explain to me......"we can't ring you out unless you give us your social security number." Bloody hell were back to square one!

I think sis finally gets annoyed and hands over cash. They take forever processing my order with cash. They hand me the receipt - but failed to hand me my change. I FLIP OUT! "WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM! Don't you know how to count, you owe us change!"

They look at me with disgust, but are still failing to give me my change. I argue with them some more, clearly they owe us change.

They open the register as slowly as possible and count as slowly as possible. And finally, finally, I have my breakfast and my change. I look at the time, holy hell its 3:30pm! Not only did those idiots make me miss my breakfast but now I've missed out on lunch.

As me and sis were walking away the two ladies approach us and curse us out, as if it was our fault they don't know how to do the simplest of retail skills. It made no sense! No sense! I was so stressed out I could pull my hair out, WHAT is going on!!!

I woke up still feeling stressed out. What was that dream all about? Then I remembered that if I ask my subconscious to help me realize I'm dreaming, my subconscious will create a dream so stressful I could scream! And sometimes, it works, I'll scream "oh my God, someone tell me I'm dreaming!!". Unfortunately that didn't happen here.

I didn't want to end my night with that dream. I look at the clock and figure I could still sleep for another hour or so.

Senseless Shopping
I look at the time, the store I work at is just about to close. Still, I felt the need to harass my poor employees so that I could buy a single sheet of paper. In real life, I wouldn't do that to them. I know I hate it when last minute customers run in just as I'm about to lock the door.

I run in just before the doors were locked!! Its completely quiet in here. The girl managing the store (who is my belly dance teacher and not an actual employee) was babysitting her kids in the back room while on the clock.

I find the large sheet of paper I need "this is perfect to paint on". But then I start to have second doubts. "why am I painting on a sheet of paper? isn't it too thin to hold my paint?". I'm just about to walk out when mom stops me, and asks me to babysit the kids while my friend finishes closing up the store. "sure"

Locking a door apparently takes two hours. By the time I leave it's way past midnight. Apparently I'm not done shopping.

I find myself in a large shopping area. The place is crowded, with insane customers screaming gleefully up and down the isles. I browse through all the items looking for that special something to buy. It finally occurs to me that everything here is halloween related. It really makes no sense to me, I don't remember wanting to buy anything halloween related.

So I leave the store. By the time I walk out the sun has risen and I think "well great, theres goes my sleep." I start to fly home but I'm completely lost. I look behind me and see the downtown skyline of SA. "well thats east, so I need to fly in this direction". I'm sure I was flying in the right direction, but I don't recognize any of these buildings. It's so industrial looking. Where's 410 west?

I fly towards the edge of a forest. Now I know I must be going in the wrong direction. I get a feeling that I came from this direction. Flying that-way I run into an old man tending a field. "how do I get to 410-west?" He draws me a map on the ground. It's confusing as hell. I'll have to connect to two different highways. I felt so lost.

I woke up shortly after

August 13, 2013

Notes: set intention to be lucid and to have a vivid meaningful dream, dreamed I was searching for a lost hill that reviews another hill on the other side of a ravine

Lost Hill on the Other Side
Me and my friend followed our trusty map to four ancient magical locations. The shape of the map was like a four leaf clover. In each of the four corners of this kingdom is an ancient hill with a rune stone. The rune stone actually looks like a giant button on the ground, about a 2ft in radius.

We didn't have any trouble searching all four locations. But the magical rune stones didn't work. Nothing happened. Still we didn't give up and continued to search around in the grassy knolls. There must be something important about these four sites, we just didn't know what.

We bump into an old man who tells us a story, of why the hills are so important. He tells us, when he was younger he stood on a hill with a rune stone facing east. From that hill he could see across the ravine to the other side. Now the kingdom is like an isolated island. Its completely surrounded by a deep bottomless ravine. And whole kingdom assumes that there is nothing past this ravine, that we are the only people on this earth.

But from his magical hill he could see a sister hill on the other side of the ravine, with people waving back. Only when you activate the rune stones of those hills can you see, that there is life on the other side of the ravine.

But the old man explains that he can't find the hill anymore. And that the people of the kingdom have completely forgotten this truth.

We believed the old man and continued our search for this east facing hill. Thats when I realized that the map we were using was completely incorrect. It's missing an entire portion of the kingdom, namely the castle. On the castle map there is a huge east facing garden. That must be where the magical hill is, only problem is commoners aren't allowed!

No problem, the queen is actually our friend. We meet the queen by the heavily guarded castle gate. The queen is like a zelda character, fighting the forces of evil without the rest of the castle knowing. Her secret codename was something like Blue Moon.

Me and my friend were in disguise, I was wearing a showl over my head. I tell the Queen 'were here to help blue moon'. She smiles, understanding completely that we are on a secret mission. With the help of the queen we pass the guarded gates as dignitaries.

We quickly race past the royal court filled with snobby rich people. Heading east, we enter a restricted area with glass walls. I'm sure we must be near because guards were chasing us now. We find the magic hill. There's a large regal statue facing towards the endless ravine. The guards attack us, we try to explain to them were on a mission for the queen but they weren't listening.

Suddenly a warrior jumps into the scene and defeats the guards for us, he must be the Queen's personal protector. We move the statue counter-clockwise and out pops the rune stone we need. Activating it, like magic, another hill appears on the other side of the ravine. Just like the old man said...But there was no one waiting on that hill. Maybe its been so long the people of the other side gave up. Still I wanted to let the whole kingdom know this truth. I woke up shortly after.

Notes: 30 day lucid challenge - set intention for the night - dream goal is to apply the lessons of my dream dragon. Actually, I asked my dream dragon to help me realize that I am dreaming. Usually when I ask this I dream of one of two things - work or a nasty toilet.

Its Not Time for Work!
Dragon's Lessons Applied
I get to work, unlock the door and my boss was already waiting inside. We haven't even turned on the lights yet when a herd of customers barge in. That's when I realize the timing is all wrong - its like 6am! I'm not supposed to be at work and were not even supposed to be open.

I start to explain to the customers that 'were not open' and 'please come back when we are' as nicely as possible. But then, boss is like 'well I guess we can make an exception!'

Oh hell no! Its hours before I have to go to work, I'm not gonna be here all day..! I run out before my boss orders me around.

Its still very dark outside. As I walk back to my car I notice a group of guys behind me. Some of them were the customers who were just in our store. But I noticed they had a weird device in their hands and they were looking at the parked cars suspiciously.

'No, not that one' one of them says

Just as I pull out the keys to my car and beep the alarm - the boys had surrounded my car. Oh no. They are car thieves. But worse yet, I'm catching them in the act. The bigger guy looks at me, as Im holding my keys, like I'm fresh meat for him to pound.

One of the guys leaps out in front of me protectively as if to say 'dont bother her!'

The big guy gripes back "Why are you protecting her? Get the job done!"

I didn't know what to do. There's five of them and one of me. Or worse, what are they going to do to me? I started to think that maybe it was better if I just offered them sex if they promised to leave my car alone so I can at least provide an income. But they were probably going to gang rape me anyways and not care to keep any promise. It was too much for me to handle so I just closed my eyes....and wished this scene away.

I wake up back on my bed, and look at the time, its time to get ready for work. I'm walking to work (lol what car?) when I notice walking besides me - was a herd of teachers.

Each teacher had a shopping cart filled with random supplies. I first I don't mind them, until we all stop at the same place - my work. Damn, they're customers!

I look at the time again, wait a minute its not time for work! I explain to the ladies 'we wont be open for another hour or so'. They ask me if they can at least leave their shopping carts inside, 'you see' they explain 'these are the school kits and we need to go over some items with your boss'

'Alright' I was just about to unlock the door and let their shopping carts in, when I can hear my boss' loud voice all the way from the back of the store. And I could already hear it in the back of my mind 'Ring them up!'

Forget that! I ditch the teachers and their shopping carts and just run in the opposite direction! Some where along the way I passed by my sister, who is also a teacher.

I hid inside a private office building thats only open to us employees. Its still so early so theres no one here, but thank God customers don't bother us in this building. I walk around the office building for a while, wondering what's behind every door, privy only to managers and ceo's. I climb the staircase and look down.

I get this funny dreamy feeling. I jump and start to float! I am dreaming! And then I slowly rationalized "well...if im dreaming..then...I dont have to go back to work!" Freedom! I dump my purse, I take off my jacket and kick off my shoes and fly out the building.

I proceed with my dream goal, following the lessons of my dream dragon. I start with the objects closest to me. Bricks, rocks, flowers, a rose bud. At first it was hard to see because I have glasses on. When I tried to take them off it made my vision even worse. But then I rationalized "I dont even own a pair of glasses so why do I need them in the dream?". I take off the glasses again and now I can see clearly.

I was bored with my dream goal so I start to fly around instead. The place was beautiful, it looks like the riverwalk without all the annoying tourism. I fly into a diner but then my dream becomes unstable and I wake up.

Review: non lucid morning dream, wrote down notes as soon as I woke up and drifted off to sleep again

Apartment Sunken like a Ship
I was talking to Hans. If I'm talking to him its gotta be something political and social economical, world falling apart sort of deal. After that, I head back home and hang out with my family for a bit.

But my dream keeps shifting on me. My family disappears and the apartment is under water, as if it was a sunken ship. I'm with a 'dream' friend and some cute little mouse like creature. Together we explored our sunken apartment and found some interesting items. Stuffed in a desk were these clay-like objects. I realized if you put them together they become explosive bombs.

So my logic was to lump the explosive clay parts together and watch them blow up from a safe distance. My new friend and the mouse creature seemed upset that I did that. I remember picking up the poor little frightened thing and hiding her in my friends pocket. I guess its time we find a way out of this sunken apartment. Maybe if we can create some sort of breathing apparitus while we float back up the top.

I looked around for whatever I could use. The place had of old plastic water bottles lying around. In real life I hate touching other peoples water bottles, it grosses me out. In the dream I imagined these bottles belonged to my sister and her husband, which also grossed me out. But I reasoned 'its not like im going to drink it'. I'm just going to hold the bottles upside down, let them bubble up the air inside and then use a straw as my scuba gear. It really sounded like it could work!

But then we hear someone outside the sunken apartment. It sounds like a really nasty gang. They're trying to break in! 'Quick, hide!'. My friend and the little creature in her pocket quickly run to other bedroom. The gang busts in, and seeing only me, they chase me out the sunken apartment. As I float up the water I can see the apartment really does look like a sunken liner in the bottom of the sea.

I fly out of the water to the pier but the gang is still chasing me. The pier was crowded and public and there were police about, I guess that mellowed out the gang. Instead they stood on the other side of the boardwalk and just name-called me.

Behind me I realize the crowded public wasn't any ordinary crowd. It was the largest protest I've ever seen. Consisting of thousands of angry occupiers. I started to read their signs. This must have been what Hans was telling me about earlier in the dream. I wanted to join them! It looks like they need help with all the police pressuring them to leave.

But my friend is still stuck on that sunken ship! I dive back down into the sea. The fire department was all over the place. I guess they were here because of those clay bombs I exploded earlier. They were trying to quarantine the place, either way they wouldn't let me through to the other side of the apartment. Behind me I hear a small squeaking noise. My friend and the small creature were hiding behind a box. Reunited, we dive back out and wake up.

After that I had a strange serious of false awakenings because I was so sleepy I couldn't really wake up.

recap: dreaming i cant sleep, v interrupts me, lock her out, lz sleeping over, weird apartment, allison has a cat tail

note: i woke up at about 4:30 to do a wbtb, stayed up for half an hour but then I couldn't fall asleep for over an hour, will not be doing wbtb when I work early in the morning

I just want to sleep!
Im tossing and turning in my bed just trying to get some sleep. My big sis L is sleeping over and I don't mind her in my room because she's quiet enough. But my other sis V, was being loud and annoying and wanted to join us. I kicked her out my room and locked both doors. My room has two doors? At some point I wake up and I realized it was all a dream. Which gave me some relief that I finally fell asleep. I look at my clock and see I have less than an hour to sleep.

I easily fall back asleep into the same 'dream'. I'm walking around the apartment now trying to make sense of why its different. The kitchen was in a separate room, that room was flanked on both sides with a living room and a hallway in the front of it. Making a U shape around the kitchen. I've never seen that layout before so it confuses me.

My niece is running around and she's as fluffy as kitty and her tail is just as long. As L combs her I try to remember when we first realized allison was different. When did she get that cat tail? She must have been born that way and everyone is okay with it. But then I start to have clear memories of my niece without fur and without a tail. Now Im confused and cant make heads or tails of it.

My 'dream' alarm rings and now its time to get ready for work. The time doesn't make any sense either. Based off my clock, I have to be at work in 5 minutes. Why would I give myself so little time to get ready and drive over there? Whatever. I start digging through my closet for something nice to wear. I find a baby-doll style t-shirt that I really liked, naturally its a shirt ive never seen before in my life. I think about how late I am for work and then I wake up.

I could have slept for two more hours.....

August 2, 2013

recap: ny, train ride, waiting for mom, phone call, night time, baggage, arrive in morning, austin, art show in industrial area, amazing paintings, paint door, no where to sleep, freaking out, call D, no help, call mom, no help, hyperventilate

notes: night before my cycle, didnt sleep well

Artist Without a Roof
Its a late night some where in NY, I'm talking to mom on the cell phone. She promises she'll take a flight and meet me soon, but she can't stay. She'll be flying back the same day. As we talk about the travel arrangements I'm trying to make sense of it. The time frames, the location, doesnt make any sense.

As mom instructed, I get ready to take the train for the next city - Austin, TX. In the dream NY and Austin were sister cities, sitting next to each other. At first I decided to leave my bags behind and that I'll pick them up after mom gets here. Wait, that literally makes no sense. Then I'll have to do two trips, waste time, waste money and who would watch over my bags?

Nevermind, I grab my bags and hop on the train. Its filled with other excited artists. We arrive at our destination, its magically day time.

A lady shows me around the austin gallery. It's a bunch of portables and other industrial type spaces turned into on-the-spot galleries. She showed me which one was mine. Just this ugly white metal building. But when she opens the door my heart skips a beat. It's filled with my paintings and 'new' paintings I've yet to make.

My own gallery space...My own gallery space..It was perfect! Just perfect! I literally broke into tears!

She quickly reminds me that the opening is tomorrow and that I'm running out of time to paint my door..Paint my door? I look around and see that all the other artists have graffiti'd their doors. !! I need to paint my door too!

But wait, I have no paint supplies? I gotta go to the store. But wait, I don't have a car? No wait, I don't even have money?

Then it dawns on me, I don't even have a hotel room yet!! Think think think. I call up D. At first the conversation was nice. 'D, were near each other! Come see my gallery tomorrow!'. D is further north than NY - but I'm in austin. The location weirdness starts to confuse me. Either way D sounds happy and agrees to see my gallery.

I change the subject 'I need a place to stay tonight. I'm near your parents right? Can I stay there tonight?' The phone goes silent. I start to beg 'I don't have a hotel room or any money, its just one night!'. The phone is still silent. I take a look. Either D hung up on me or the phone cut off.

What do I do? What do I do?

I call up mom, but she's not answering. I keep trying, the phone isn't going through. Now it feels like my whole world is falling apart. My door isn't painted. I'm running out of time. I dont know any of these artists! I don't have a place to stay tonight! What will happen? What will happen? If I go to a motel, my God I could be raped!

I start to hyperventilate - and then I wake up. I felt miserable for hours.

After thoughts: a lot of meaning in this dream considering the artsy events going on in my life now. The joy of the gallery space, the lack of a painted door (advertising) and all that lack of security and poor artist syndrome - yeah im feeling it

July 3rd, 2013

notes: more morning dreams

A Familiar Game
I'm playing a familiar game, except a life-size version of it. In the dream I feel I've played this game lots before. Something to do with collecting items before the monsters do, or before other players do.

Defeating the monsters was easy, they were already low hp because of other players. But why didn't those players grab the key?

I grab the key and head into the dungeon where I know I have to craft something before moving to the next level. But the dungeon is freaking me out - its - empty. No monsters. No players. Spooky quiet.

It was a while before I found the other players, who seem to be huddled up for the same reasons. Something about the game was off and freaking everyone out.

Katie
A strange sound right outside the living room catches my attention. The layout of the house harks back to my childhood home in long island. I peek out the window, woah! It was a massive pink parrot like bird, just huge!

"Look at that bird!!!"

But no one in the living room seemed interested. "Sis, are you seeing this!"

Sis calls out from her bedroom "yes, yes! its so pretty!". And she was. I looked at that pink bird and thought 'wow, you are so beautiful!'. Suddenly it noticed me and transforms into a winged girl. Her skin was still pink. Her eyes were like an owls, and her face plump and round and so was her whole body. She had angel curls.

"Woah"

I crack open the window, just a little bit and she flies down in front of me. Her smile was so soft. At first I was worried she bites or something, but that sweet smile. I open the window wider and stroke her face. "are you hungry?"

Sis races to the living room to see the bird girl. I try to feed the girl some candy but shes not interested. "Katie"

"Is that your name? Let me find you some snacks katie!"

I tried all sorts of things, but she wasnt interested in anything my pantry has. I figured maybe she eats fish or rodents like a bird. Me and sis go outside to play with katie. What a fascinating sight.

Katie is naked, appears to be about 4 years old, but talks as though she's older. Soft plushy wings, and taloned toes. She doesn't have any genitals, but does have a scar on her abdomen. A doctor trying to figure her out? Poor katie, she must have run away.

Sis kept making noise "ITS A BIRD GIRL! EVERYONE COME LOOK!" I dont think katie wants that kind of attention, I was so afraid she'd run away again. Katie shows me her dolly, a rabbit that's shaved to look like it has a pony tail.

"What a darling!" One of the neighbors asks if shes our daughter, but both me and sis deny it. I try to hide her wings when prying neighbors come by. Eventually Katie gets annoyed and puts on clothes to hide her gorgeous wings.

But she couldn't fool this strange man. "Katie, is that you?" He tugs on her jacket to reveal her wings "It is you!"

At this point my friend R steps out of the house. She doesn't seem surprised at all by katies sight. "Look R, its Katie!! i guess you'll have to dye your hair again because you know" he makes a gun gesture.

I realize he and R are former supernatural detective agents, and that R has had to change her appearance for what ever reason. My dream begins to fizzle out, but all I could think about when I woke up, was how much I loved katie.

July 2nd, 2013

note: three morning dreams, sleeping in is awesome

Construction Zone
I can feel my heavy eyelids and how firmly closed they were. But despite that, I can still see! Faces and other weird things in my bedroom. I realize the reason why I can still see is because I'm dreaming. I jump out the window and run around aimlessly. I decide the best thing to do lucid is to attack a candy store and eat snacks. But everything was tasteless so that didn't last long.

I wake up and roll back into bed. Again I can see with my eyelids closed. I jump out the window and fly through a construction zone. They were constructing in an outdoor corridor. After flying past them the dream becomes foggy.

Im back in my bedroom again and again I fly past the construction zone.

The dream gets weird and for a third time I'm in my room. This time one of the construction people pops in and leads me back to my window. I giggle when I see the construction zone again right outside. This time it looks almost complete, with potted plants and all.

The construction people were real nice and want to show me something else. They take me to a cob house and show me another window. Right outside that window was the rainforest. The scene brought me to tears and I woke up.

Ryoga Moment
I think my ryoga moment happened sometime in the construction zone dream. Lucid, I decide the funnest thing to do is to be like ryoga from ranma 1/2. I was gonna charge head-first in one direction and stick to that one direction!! I hold out my arm "im gonna run non-stop in this direction!"

I race away, sliding down a hill and into a flood-catch. The rocks hurt my feet but I didn't care. My running direction takes me straight inside the wall of the bridge. That doesn't seem so possible......to go through....I stand on a rock inside the flood-catch and decide I have no choice but to break my vow and start running in a different direction.

I was about to run over the water when I noticed a huge sewer drainage up ahead. EWW. This is poopy water! I'm not touching that!!! I break my vow again and fly away.

Tornado Attack with Dad
In real life mom and sis were arguing about something whilst I was in bed. In my dream the argument was about Dad. Dad was heading out to get something for sis. I was heading out too for a different reason, but i guess me and dad are heading in the same direction.

We swim across the flood catch. The current is strong so dad lends me a hand getting out. The next building over has the goods that dad needs to buy, but thats when I notice something sinister.

"Whats that? Is that, rain?"

There was a dark cloud that looked like it was continuously crashing into the ground. I thought maybe the weird phenomenon was massive rain just beating itself into the ground. But I saw cloud , not rain. Oh no, is that?

"Is that a tornado???"

Dad just squints his eyes. I grab his wrist and drag him into the building we were conveniently standing by. It was a museum and the museum already knew about the tornado. Sirens start glaring. The museum people usher everyone into this one room.

A room with a huge bay window! Everyone including dad, sits by the bay window so they can stare at the tornado. "Are you crazy! Dad, get away from the window!"

"Look, there it is!"

But no one was listening to me. I take cover on the lower level of the room, far away from the windows. The whole building starts to shake, when, a loud noise in the kitchen wakes me up.

note: morning dream, its nice to sleep in

Purple Wings-A Zombie's Curse
I don't remember how the zombie curse began. All I know now is that there are three survivors. Me, Mc Adam who is a girl and Mc Nee. While all the rest have been turned into zombies or eaten by zombies, we were left with a different curse.

We are not human. We were more like angelic demons. Our true form was winged, dark black skin, purple wings and a purple aura. Our powers included transforming into beasts and into humans so that we can fit in.

For a long time we were trapped in a complex filled with beasts and zombie monsters. Though it was scary, they were no match for our demon-powers.

Eventually we escaped. I remember running down the hall trying to catch up to my friends, too afraid I'll lose them. I felt so close to the two of them, especially Adam - whose a girl. And Mc Nee i believe was her boyfriend.

For a while we took refuge in a cabin. But I saw something strange happening in the woods. An energy sphere surrounded the entire woods with a purple aura, transforming the beasts into zombies. "Its happening again!"

I don't remember if we faught them or escaped. Next we find a city filled with perfectly healthy humans blissful of the zombie disease. I told my friends I was worried that we would carry the zombie disease with us. So Mc Adam had an idea, to cleanse herself. She went to a public bath.

I was afraid to lose sight of my DC. I ran after her shouting her name. "Mc Adam! Mc Adam! Wait!" I went into the public bathhouse and found my friend. I remember being worried that being naked meant that others will see we are actually monsters. Either way, I take a very public shower.

May 19 to May 22 Recap

Saturday: F7 Tornado
My co-workers stand on the curbside and shout out at me "don't leave us!" Oh well, too bad! I wave goodbye and leave them all behind as I hop into a hippie bus.

The bus took me to a new city I didn't recognize, but it was still a texas city. The city was divided into different "rings". As soon as I got there the most inner ring was under attack by an F3 Tornado.

More tornados developed in and around the city, causing confusion because no one knew where it was safe to go. I followed the herd assuming that was best.

An emergency warning over speaker announced that an F7 tornado was developing. An F7? My mind is racing "there is no such thing". The broadcast warned us that a tornado of this magnitude is so destructive that your only chance of survival - is to know where the tornado is forming and where its heading.

We took this F7 threat seriously! A group of us rush outside the city wall to find the forming tornado. It was literally right outside. The vortex was over my head. Black swirling clouds already sucking up furniture!

We ran back to the inner most ring- the same one that was ravaged by the F3 tornado earlier. The broadcast warned us that there was no point hiding. And to stay away from the walls because the electrical wiring will burst and youll die before the tornado is even over.

The broadcast told us that all we could do now in the force of an F7 was lay on the ground and prepare for the end. Hundreds of us laid down face first. It felt like we were just told an atomic bomb was being dropped on us.

I knew it was over. A rush of wind. I close my eyes. When I open them up again I'm back home. But no one is here. I'm all alone. I thought of my parents and how I'd never see them again. As I walk outside the images the bloody bodies fill my mind.

I open the door and outside there's a sunny beach waiting for me - and spirits of deceased relatives. I'm overcome with absolute grief. They try to console me and I wake up.

Note: Only days prior - a dangerous tornado that made a neighborhood disappear was only minutes away from my apartment, so tornados were on my mind. However, the feeling that there was no escaping a Tornado of this magnitude made me think of the events that would happen days later. Monday, Moore Oklahoma.

Sunday: UFO In the Sky
Everyone has left me home alone. I decide to go for a walk despite it being dark outside. I see a bright light in the sky and it beams a light back down on the ground. Scared of the UFO I hide behind a car and watch it as it drifts through the sky.

Monday: I should've have known-Porch
After a long day with the family I go home and take a nap. When I wake up its evening. There's something strange about the apartment but I can't figure out what. I go out to my porch and look at the beautiful nightscape.

Wind is blowing between the leaves and the air feels cool. I wanted to do nothing more but jump! I jump up and down because I'm excited at the idea of dreaming and flying! But alas, I'm awake. So I go back inside and get ready for work. Then I really wake up.

Wednesday:
Work was ridiculously frustrating. I had to fill this order for chocolate mints except we didn't have any. So boss tells me just fell the order with blue items because blue is minty.

I swear I spent half an hour looking for blue items that looked minty. Boss kept griping at me 'whats taking so long!' but I couldn't help it if these items keep morphing on me - losing their blue minty color.

Finally I get fed up and said 'screw this!'. I didn't want to have to deal with my boss bossing me around so I woke myself up. A few seconds later I fell back asleep - lucid.

The first thing I did was take off my shoes and socks so I can run around wild. A few minutes later the alarm rang.

Review: I try to find grandma in a city for the undead. Later, I have a brief moment of lucidity by the mountains

Undead City-Grandma's Lost
The dream starts out with me in the supermarket with family. I don't remember this part of the dream much anymore, but I ended up with some fruity juice.

I drink my juice in the car as sis drives. She's taking us to meet our uncles and aunts for something important. We arrive at some wilderness park right by the highway. Grandma wandered in there and now she's lost!

Me and sis run up ahead to find grandma, but then I realized my older uncles and aunts were trailing behind. At this rate we'll lose them. Uncle Alex gets an idea. 'Lets split up!'. We team up with uncle Alex and he quickly drives us to the other end of the park.

It felt like a race, whose team will find grandma first? I thought we had reached our destination, but Uncle Alex kept driving. He took us to an old subdivision with huge overgrown trees. You'd think we were in a forest instead of a neighborhood.

The dream gets abstract with some parking lot by an apartment complex. We almost get run over by a truck with a cargo of cars. The dream sign is lost on me.

We finally stop at a cabin. The cabin itself was gorgeous, with vines growing all over it. But there's something seriously off about this place. The neighbors have noticed us and stumble closer. What's wrong with them? Their eyes are sulken. Their mood and energy dark.

They don't say anything, they're like shadows, just watching us.

Uncle Alex told us to wait by the cabin while he goes looking for grandma. He warned us to stay inside as soon as it gets dark. Looking at our shifty neighbors, I got the feeling he was being serious. Something bad happens if you stay out after dark.

I had to find grandma! Plus, I have no idea where our uncle went either. I told sis "You stay here, I'll go look for them!" And with that I left sis alone in the creepy cabin.

I wander into a huge parking lot. But there's something not normal about this place. There people who were coralled into one area. A colorful painted line was the boundary. They walked aimlessly with their heads down. I saw an old woman among them who looked like grandma.

"Grandma!"

But a warden stopped me from taking a step closer. She told me I wasn't allowed to walk through the line. She told me I had to keep quit, that talking wasn't allowed, especially past that line. What?

"Grandma!" I keep screaming grandma until the old lady heard me and turned around. But it wasn't her face. 'whos that?'

"She's crossed over and now her DNA is being rearranged"

Thats when I finally understood that anyone passed that line was dead! I realized the warden who was talking to me was dead! And everyone back by the cabin, dead! Actually, theyre all undead.

The undead passed the line started to stare at me, as if they were envious and jealous I wasn't among them. I remember one child's face. And her eyes, those cold grey demonic eyes. Crap! I'm not supposed to be here!

I run! I can hear the headmaster of the undead place giving announcements.

"Those who cross the line, join the undead. Those who fly over the pools, join the undead. And those who stay after dark, join the undead."

Crap! I start to fly away instead. I can see the pools the headmaster was talking about. But I'm such in a rush I fly over them. Instantly, demons emerge from the water and grab my legs. They're trying to drown me, to touch the water. I kick them real hard and keep on flying.

Except now I'm lost. The parkinglot of undead and the pools were sorrounded by giant buildings. It turns out it was a museum and there were plenty of tourists. I guess this was who the headmaster was giving announcements to.

I admit I got side tracked in the museum. It was interesting! And the undead tour guides were nice and informative. Plus they had no problem standing and waiting for days on end without pay, zombies made the perfect employees who could stare at museum walls for hours.

But, you can see it in their eyes. After dark, they'll consume you. Ive gotta focus! Ive gotta get out of this place!

I see an employee exit. I almost take it except the exit leads down...down..down into the earth. You know what, its probably better I don't go down that way. I tried flying through a window. That didn't work. I tried using a map to change the dream scene. That didn't work.

After a confusing dream bit, I make it outside. The headmaster warns the tourists again that the sun is going down. The tourists scamper away as if theres nothing wrong, just another amusement place closing.

Crap! Sis! I quickly fly over the buildings. I have to reach her in time! The sun is going down fast. Which cabin is it? Its twilight already and its so dark by these cabins with all this tree cover.

I don't see sis anywhere. Instead I find a doll where sis used to be. "Sis! Sis!" I shake the doll furiously. "Wake up! Wake up!". But the dolls eyes are lifeless. I felt terrible, guilty. I shouldn't have left her alone. Now I've lost her.

The last light of the sun fades behind the trees. Shadows grow all around me like an all consuming cloud. At the last moment I escape by flying through the tree cover. I fly faster than I've ever flown.

In seconds I was thousands of miles away, far far away by the mountains.

The sun was shining bright and it was gorgeous out there. The mountain peaks were snowy but down below I can see green. I slowly descend into the green pastures of the mountainside. I was happy to be lucid by these mountains.

A few moments later I wake up

Review: A fun but strange dream in which I have to collect pieces of dragons for some magical task. Only problem is I have two employers both asking for the dragon pieces but I can only return to one. The dream starts with a curse by Poseidon.

Dragon Pieces: Two Paths
The land is frozen and a blizzard blows unceasingly. But its summer! I'm a fawn like creature with fae wings. I buzz over the snowy landscape but all I can find are monsters!

I don't see any people or the rest of my magical fawn creatures. I fly up a mountain side towards where the city should be. The monsters here were even taller. I desperately try to fly even higher to get over their heads.

But one monster was as tall as city skyscraper! I'm too slow and I can't fly over him. He's no monster, he's a god, Poseidon. Poseidon snatches me like a fly.

Inside Poseidon's dark castle I find another fawn creature. I remember admiring his fuzzy ears. My friend explains to me that its Poseidon who's cursed the land with winter. I remember seeing a text of some sort explaining to me which deity goes to which month - clearly Poseidon doesn't belong to this month.

The old god Poseidon has asked something of me, I don't remember what. But I remember bargaining with him. I wanted him to end winter so my fawn friends can play in summer again. The price for my request was to make love to him. Well it worked I guess.

Winter melts away and Poseidon and his monsters disappear.

I fly all over the human city but I don't see any of my fawn friends! I fly into an old castle atop the mountain. The castle is very steam-punk. There's a giant hanger and some sort of workshop with weird devices. It's not so much of a castle anymore than it is someone's private business place.

The old man running shop realizes I'm looking for something. I tell him about my problem, that I can't find any of the fawns. He tells me he can help me out, but requires making a magical device using pieces of dragons.

"Pieces of dragons?" sounds easy! I flew away and started my task. The human mountain city was huge. There was another, more fancier, castle on the other end of the mountain.

In my desperate search I fly into that castle looking for dragon pieces. The royalty there realize I'm looking for something. When I explain the situation they show me some sort of fancy telescope thing. But in order to operate their telescope to find my friends, I have to bring them dragon pieces.

I buzz all over the city and make my way towards the gates. There I find two dragon heads dismembered from their bodies. I pick up one of the dragon heads - it's still alive!

"You want my scales don't you?..Sigh..That's alright. Not much else I can do now."

"Thanks"

I nibble off his scales and carry them in my mouth like a chipmunk. But I didn't know who I would bring back the dragon pieces to! The steam-punk run down castle with the family run business, or the royalty run castle with a fancy telescope?

I'm lost in the city. I'm not even sure which way was back to either castle. I finally find a castle atop the mountain. I swoop in and spit out the dragon pieces in this weird device.

"She came back!" A male clerk operating a computer seemed really surprised. "We thought she had taken her business else where"

I just realize that I'm in the steampunk castle. Wait! I don't want this castle, I want the other one. I pick up the dragon pieces again and fly off. As soon as I leave the steampunk castle launches their weird machine. They promised to use it only when I had returned with the dragon pieces. For me it was like saying they didn't want my business anyways.

I'm heading towards the other castle with my dragon pieces. And thats when I wake up.

Review: In present day, a rich woman sends her robots 1000 years into the future to manipulate it for her own selfish agendas. A 1000 years into the future and robots and aliens alike are treated as second-class citizens. The uprising starts from the streets of the bazaar

Robot Time War
My family runs a stand in this futuristic bazaar. The entire bazaar was inside this massive complex which held everything in it. You live and work in the same concrete hall. It seemed everyone here was a "bazaar" family with their own family-run stand.

Its business as usual until a robot assassin attempts to murder an old alien man. They were able to thwart the assassination attempt and I got into the middle of it more than I wanted to.

I help the alien family with their stand and I learn a little bit more about the history of this place. The poverty, the slavery, the injustice. Apparently this old man was important to a growing uprising here in the bazaar.

The assassination attempts didn't end. Dangerous robots were being sent one after the other. It only causes confusion and mistrust, because several of the alien families had helper robots with them.

But these dangerous robots were actually coming from the past.

(1000 years ago) "My-lady?" A tiny dog like robot waits in the bedroom for instructions. A female voice answers the dog robot using the robots built in walkie talkie "They are almost through the door!"

BANG-BANG. Watching the scene, I can't tell where the banging is coming from. I don't see the woman in sight either. BANG-BANG.

"Once they break through, I'm done for and so are you!! They'll use an EMF bomb with a radius of 7 miles! Bzzzz! No more doggie robot! Are you listening to me??? FINISH THE MISSION!"

"Yes-mam. Where-will-you-be?"

"I'll be here my pet, drawing my bath"
BANG-BANG

The doggie robot thinks to himself how he must send his robot friends to their death while his master draws a bath. But the fear of the EMF bomb drives him on. He summons the next robot assassin, a female robot of his same make and model.

The portal into the future is a small hole hidden in the back of a bedroom closet. "I-love-you". Having said his goodbyes the female robot dog leaps into the future. Leaping through the veil between times, she instantly evolves by a 1000 years worth of technology!

She's no longer this toy looking robot, but a fully integrated biological machine. Like a wolf, she hunts down her target. But with the entire bazaar on alarm, she is quickly put down like the other robot assassins.

Time is out for the woman of the past manipulating the future. Time is out for her in the past and time is out for her in the future. BANG-BANG!

"My-lady-what-do-we-do-now?" The doggie robot intrudes on her royal luxurious bath. The hot-tub was the size of the room. Next to her royal tub was the door. The door was at least 10 inches thick. BANG-BANG. But the door was deformed from the governments efforts. They've almost broken through! Watching the scene, I was terrified to stand by the door.

"Initiate the final program."

"Yes-mam" The doggie robot sends his last robot to the future. Some sort of messenger robot with glowing lights. "Our-last-hope-do-not-fail". The messenger robot crosses the veil and evolves by a 1000 years.

1000 years into the future and the bazaar is finally ready to rebel and take up arms! I stopped watching the dream and actively helped the bazaar. "They're coming!" An army dressed in black approached the bazaar.

A bomb goes off and the interior windows collapse. Water surges through and the entire bazaar begins to completely flood within seconds. Helpless aliens and robots are swept away by the currant.

"ALL ALIENS WHO CAN SWIM HELP THOSE WHO CAN'T!" There were plenty of water-breathing aliens. Together they were able to rescue those who were drowning. We gave them underwater oxygen masks, they looked like bubbles around their faces.

The bombs and the gunfire continued. The remaining group quickly raced to the other end of bazaar. The army in black was still attacking us from outside. I used my shield powers to stop their attacks and I made their weapons collapse and fall apart.

The aliens of the bazaar had finally find a strategic location to counter attack!! The battle is quickly over-turned.

Back in the past. BANG. BANG. BANG. The door is so weak now you can hear the voices of the government officials on the other side. The doggie robot panics. BANG BANG. "I-must-hide! I-must-hide!" He quickly hides in the closet. But then he realizes no amount of hiding can protect him from an EMF bomb.

BANG. He can hear the door collapse. All is quiet now. The robot can't hear his master or the government officials. Maybe they took his master and left. Maybe he's safe. Or maybe, they're setting up the bomb and seconds from now he'll cease to exist!

Then finally he realizes
"Why-wait-for-death-here-when-I-can-live-in-the-future" He leaps into the future!

-then I wake up, the end
