    1. Competition Week One

      by , 04-17-2016 at 03:21 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      Monday Night (night 2)

      Only fragments; I was at a building site and two neighbors from junior year of college were there. At some point, my Oma let me use her bathroom. There was way more to the dream but I can't remember many more details than that.



      Tuesday Night (night 3)

      I was with Zukin at one of her classes on an exam day. I took the exam as well, for shiggles. It was 15 questions and they were either super complicated with chemical and math and other stuff I would not know, or super simple questions like "what is a baby cat called?"
      I stayed to talk to the professor a bit because I was interested in the class now, and then met Zukin outside in the hallway. But when I got to the hallways, it turned into the supermarket. We picked out some foods and then walked back to her place. She took me by the railroad tracks. When we got back to her place, I had to set up my bunk bed (apparently I had that with me haha). But parts were missing... I couldn't find the ladder or the railings.



      Wednesday Night (night 4)

      I was teaching, but it was taking place at my home. During one of the breaks I somehow ended up thinking it was a good idea to get high, and then had to teach in that state. It was very scary, actually. I almost did so many things that would NOT have been good. After class, I took a nap and when I got up again it was a beautiful spring day. Some of my students were playing a game of tag or something right outside the window. And then one of them somehow busted his lip...

      Woke up for reals, and fell back asleep to have this one:
      I was taking a shower, and this shower was so effing beautiful. It was completely made of blue, green and purple glass tiles and had multiple levels. Like you could sit or use one of the levels to prop up your leg to shave better. I got out of the shower feeling great and ended up in my Oma's house. I thought this was strange because their shower is not like that at all, and checked my hands. They were stubby, so I knew it was a dream. I know I already did the TOTM but I really wanted to do it again because of how cool it was before, and also because I knew it was a competition night. I ran at the wall to phase through it and ended up in Oma's front yard. I jumped up but was having trouble getting airborne for some reason so I started my climbing the big tree I always used to climb and jumping from the top of it (like literally it's a pine and I can usually get three or four stores up.
      I jumped out of the tree and got right into flying, then hovered for a but to collect my thoughts. I wanted to get to the clouds fast and also get my second three-step so I let myself fall from where I was hovering. Just before hitting the ground I let out my hands and shot up Iron Man style. I've always loved looking down while I shoot up like that and watched the ground getting rapidly wider as I gained altitude. Then I looked out and up again and spotted a nice fluffy cloud to land on. It was the same as before, so light and soft but also really dense and firm. That makes no sense, I know, but it's the only way I can describe it. I tried to remember what my last three-step goal was, but was drawing blanks, so I let myself fall through the cloud as a teleportation device.
      I ended up in a weird but cool club and some guy came up to me and asked if I wanted to smoke with him. I said sure, why not, and gradually began to lose lucidity
      and then woke up.

      Fell back asleep and was immediately lucid. I was waiting for a train at a big and other-worldly station. It reminded my of Myst and Riven. I got on this train with other people my age and when it started going, I directed it upwards into the sky and into a cave. There were beautiful, luminescent lichen and stalagtites and stalagmites. The other people on the train were impressed and asked me to take them somewhere new just as cool. But I was loosing lucidity. I sent us to the rim of an inactive volcano or some other kind of mountain place. By the time we got there though, I was non-lucid again and dreaming normally. I eventually saw my kindergarteners and one of them tried to get me to watch this movie but I was tired and didn't want to.



      Thursday Night (night 5)

      I was at school, and a parent of one of my most challenging kids this year was dropping him off and told me, "don't let that Miss N. Read to him. She's stupid and she is racist and do t you let her write for them either." And I was so shocked that I cried. Like honestly that staff member she was talking about is one of the kindest people at he school and has been a huge help to me and my students this year. I wS taken aback by this and tearfully told the parent off lol.



      Friday Night (night 6)

      I was with Zukin and we were trying to get into this private (and super elite) lecture. We got to the entrance to the lecture hall and the professor was there... Zukin flirted with him to get us in haha. We took Sears near the window in the back of the room, and there was one of those three-windowed jut outs (I am spacing on what they're called haha) and I sat in it. It wasn't a seat but I made it into a window seat haha. It was a pretty nice day outside so I was looking out the window for a little bit and saw a woman sitting in the grass reading a book. I looked back to the professor to watch the lecture again, and then he looked out another window. He said, "oh shit, there are police cars out there's!"
      I looked out the window I sat by again, and saw (to my horror) three police officers trying to subdue a Bigfoot who was literally tearing the woman from before into pieces. I was horrifyed and all I could think was, oh shit. It can get through this window... and I turned to Zukin and said, "Zukin, we gotta run. Now."
      So we get up and run toward the exit. When we're about 3/4 to the door, the window shatters and the Bigfoot leaps in and starts chasing us. We were on the second floor of this building btw. Zukin and I were running for a while, and the university building was turning into more of a luxurious, huge mansion. I was 150% sure by this point that the Bigfoot was after me alone, so I told Zukin to get somewhere else. The Bigfoot was breaking walls and doors to get at me and it finally cornered me in a closet-like thing.
      It was about to tear me limb from limb but then stopped, looked at me a little sadly or pityingly, and said, "wow. You must be pretty stressed to be having a dream like this. How about a sensual massage instead of getting ripped apart?"
      I could only stare at it for a moment, then checked my hands. Sure enough, I was dreaming. I decided to take up the bigfoots offer, too. It told me to find the bathroom on the second floor west side of the building and then disappeared. I was curious now, and blinked myself to the general area. I found the bathroom and really had to pee, actually. It was hard to stay in the dream, and all the toilets in the room had some weird aspect that made them unusable. One had a permanent potty-training attachment so it was too small. One of them was a "diarrhea machine" in the wall, and I didn't want to open that can of worms. The other one was a coffin-sized wooden box with intricate designs on it. (These were all in the same room, haha!)
      The Bigfoot came in and opened the lid of the large wooden box thing. Bit turned out to be a massage table (and it was weirdly sexual, because there were little dips and grooves for butts and feet and even boobs). I was laying down on the table to get a "sensual massage" from Bigfoot when I woke
      up.

    2. spellbee's Competition Night 4

      by , 01-15-2016 at 02:39 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      Third night's paltry fragments are not worth DJing, sadly.

      But last night was a double-lucid night (which doesn't usually happen for me! Especially when I've been on a dry spell!)

      I was driving on the highway through the city. I noticed a blockade coming up, though. I stopped the car and got out to investigate, and it turns out there was an accident ahead and the whole freeway was closed from this point on. But for some reason, instead of cars getting off at the ramp that was literally RIGHT THERE, people were getting out of their cars and continuing on foot up the off-ramp. As I followed people up the ramp, I overheard people saying how there was a lone survivor; a child whose parents both died pretty gruesomely. There was a police officer asking the boy who they could contact instead of his parents, and he didn't know...

      I soon found my way to a mall that had wide, open corridors. As I was walking in them (they were deserted) I pretty much just remembered, "oh yeah! I'm sleeping in bed right now." And looked at the ceiling above me. I jumped and knew I for sure was dreaming when I zoomed out, completely phasing through the ceiling to the city above. I flew around, making my way back to the blockade to investigate more, but everyone was gone. I looked around and spotted a door in the walls keeping the busy city from mingling with the freeway.

      I ended up in this series of tunnels and hallways that was a police checkpoint or outpost or something. I opened a door next to me and found the boy who'd survived and some other police officers. They all looked at me and the boy looked scared somehow so I told him and the officer with which he spoke to ignore me, and became pretty much invisible to them and out of their memories even. For them, I wasn't even there. One of the other officers got mad and said that only authorized personnel could be there. I waved and informed him that the boy didn't know I was here, so it was fine. This seemed to calm the officer down so I looked around while I tried to remember something I wanted to do. I started my three-steps. I looked for something to use telekinesis on, and settled on the handcuffs at the officer's waist. I focused on them and they began to move. Once they were free of the cop's waist, I made them float around for a while and then settle on the table next to us. I've never done much with telekinesis so this was good practice for me. The police officers who could see me were fucking amazed by this and asked if I was a wizard or something. I talked with them about something or other but I could feel the dream ending and don't remember what exactly I was saying to them when I realized I was
      awake again (and people were plowing right outside my window at 2am). I eventually fell back asleep, though.




      All I remember before getting lucid again was being at someone's house and trying to make ramen. I had to leave it in my bowl for a bit to help someone do something or other, and by the time I got back to it, someone was shuffling off with most of my noodles transferred to their own bowl, and the rest of my noodles slopped all over the counter top. I was so angry! I yelled at him to stop and got in a heated cut-a-bitch argument with him. But then my assistant principal came in and said we needed to stop fighting. She also said we needed to talk about lesson plans. I somehow realized I was dreaming, because though I couldn't remember quite what day it was, it was certainly NOT Monday, when plans are due. Checking my ring confirmed that this was a dream, and I looked over at my assistant principal. I used Jedi mind tricks to wave her away with a, "my lesson plans are superb, no need to talk about them now," got up, and left.

      I found some of the people at this house and asked them where I could find a fairy ring; it was the TOTY that was first to come to mind. One of the guys jerked his finger over his shoulder, toward a window. "Right out front," he said. I thanked him and phased through the wall. Sure enough, there was a fairy circle like right in the front yard of this place. I approached it and wondered how to summon fairies, like actually. I remembered reading Zukin's journal; she sat down in it. I stepped in and felt a shiver like I was passing through some kind of invisible shield or wall of sorts. I sat down and willed for the fairies to arrive but woke
      up before they showed (I felt like I was THIS CLOSE to meeting them, too. I KNEW they were about to appear.)



      I had one other dream about eating fruits and pastries. It was nice I guess but not all that interesting or exciting XD

    3. Week's baclog and epic scifi battle lucid with Zukin

      by , 10-25-2015 at 01:06 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      October 19, 2015

      I was a bit late in writing this one down so some of the details have escaped me; but I do know that I was walking around my home town, suuuupppeerrr tall. I was like the mountain spirit in Mononokehime, or a Titan. I felt more like the Spirit though. I was walking down the big hilly streets and enjoying the view from up high; I almost got lucid but didn't quite get there.




      October 20, 2015

      I was rafting down a river with Zukin. We were having the bestest of times, just sitting there and enjoying the sunset. to get back, though, we had to get upriver, and it was a struggle but still the bestest. After that, she had a date with Ginger, and I was talking with my high school friend, K. At some point, a middle school friend, N, texted me, and came to join us. It turned out he was in a band now and doing pretty well for himself. K was also doing well for himself, having beaten a lot of the depression he's been dealing with for years. Then, A (a guy I casually saw for a month or two) texted and wanted to hang out. So I was there with these three guys, and Zukin found out and posted on my Facebook wall, "Way to go Kestrel! Stringing these boys along perfectly." And I was embarrassed. Zukin and Ginger got back, and we had a dance party; I was eating some cucumbers, but since Zukin and Ginger were making out their feet got in my cucumbers



      October 21, 2015

      I was in a new school building; one of my coworkers was there, and she was put in this new classroom on the second floor. It was such a fucking beautiful classroom; all hardwood floors and beautiful dark wooden, tall walls. And like three rooms coming off the main room. In one of the rooms, there was this petting zoo / carnival ride. You could ride a llama, or a dog or a pig. But there was a rule; you can't wear a bra on the animals. So I had to take off my bra. And for some reason I ended up taking off my shirt as well. So I was sitting on this pig, shirtless. I got self conscious, especially since people were coming to pick me up any second now... but when I looked down, it turned out my shirt was still on, so I was all good. There was also this ride where you got on this big ball and rolled down a wire loop thing.


      I was going to this new aquarium with my brother; they had a merman on exhibit and we really wanted to go see him. We were about to enter with a large group, but something went terribly wrong, and since I was at the back of the group with my brother, all we could hear was some bangs and then someone shouting, "Run the FUUUUCK away!!!" This guy had been talking to us before, and he knew a lot about meraids, so we trusted his intuition and ran the fuck away. As we were leaving the building, going down this huge stairway at the entrance, there were lots of flashes and booms and shit. It was as if the merman had gone crazy and summoned a huge storm to destroy this whole fucking place.
      We got to the car and by the time we got home, we realized what had been so terrible. It wasn't the merman, but the climate; the sun was suddenly like 10x brighter, and the merman had sensed the change coming on and had been trying to warn people by attacking them to make them go back home lol. The sun was so bright it would burn you the moment your skin was exposed.
      Eventually, someone found a cure for the climate; an apple cider you had to drink to be fine in the new sun.



      October 22, 2015

      I was in a castle with Zukin, and we were guests at some kind of wedding; but there was a dragon who was trying to stop the wedding from happening. And then it turned out the groom had been cheating on the bride with this voluptuous woman in purple. The dragon then went berserk, and Zukin, the ex-bride, and I all ran down to this river to escape. This scene happened like three times, but the third time, it ended differently; we ran down to the river and suddenly the ex-bride had these super powers and blew up the dragon, who turned out to have been the woman in purple all along. It was weird.



      October 23, 2015

      I was sitting with Zukin in this huge tree, and pretty much just knew it was a dream from the get-go. We were reminiscing and pretty much just chilling. We met this guy who needed a lot of information, so we took him to this huge dream-database. We flew through stacks of conjoined truck-beds, which housed all the information. All I had to do was think about the information we needed, and a piece of paper just drew me to it. I pulled it out of its file and found that a woman had died, and found out she was pregnant with the child of the man who had been seeking our help. The man was so upset but so grateful for the information, and put the paper in his breast pocket. Some shit happened and it turned into an epic scifi battle with all my favorite characters from all my favorite shows. Zukin was by my side and the whole time, we wrecked shit up. After the battle, we all had a dance party. We were having a blast and then Zukin and I sorta sunk down through the floor and laid down to watch the feet swirling from below; the floor was completely clear, almost invisible so it was really surreal. I turned to Zukin and said, "This is pretty cool." And she agreed, telling me she had brought me to her dream now. I asked her what the rest of her dream had been like, but she couldn't really remember.

    4. Doctor Who Themed Night?

      by , 10-19-2015 at 01:45 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      Okay, trying to get back into the swing of daily DJing... I've been slacking so much lately, but I'm determined to get back into a good rhythm.


      October 18, 2015

      Rose Tyler

      I had just found Rose Tyler, and we were trying desperately to find the Doctor. We had the TARDIS, and were taking it around my neighborhood at night, trying to locate him; he was with some sort of group, passing out freebies for an event of some sort. I think he didn't remember who we were, but the people with him were enemies and hated us; they had brainwashed him somehow. So we had to pretend not to be us for a whike; we put on disguises and joined the group once we found them. But as soon as the Doctor saw Rose, he snapped out of it and just picked her up, and carried her away Princess-style. He was seriously the happiest man in the Universe in that moment, I could tell.



      What the Eff

      It was my birthday, and my family had gotten me this weird family Massage Feast. Like, they laid out all this food, and you got a Massage in the middle of the room while you and your family feasted. It was in this old, slightly sketch-looking building. They made me take off all the bracelets I had on, explaining that it would mess with the chi of the massage. They were so condescending about my bracelets though; one was apparently from another massage I'd gotten and was some sort of ice-charm to keep my joints from freezing up? Anyways, they looked at it and were all, "Oh, that explains so much," like it was a bad thing and I was a dumb-ass for having the bracelet.

      Anyways, they took us back into this huge dip in the floor that was lined with pillows and cushions and we sort of just sat there while we waited. Then they lead another girl and her family to the same place, and I was worried they were going to do the massages at the same time and place with hers, which kinda freaked me out. The other girl and her family left and went to a private room and they just left me and my family waiting there for a long time. Then I found out my cousin had said she didn't want to do this anymore, so they had canceled our reservation. I was so mad; this was MY birthday present, she had no right to say no. If she didn't want to, she should have just left and I was even more upset with my family for letting her have her way on my special day.



      Dalek Invasion!

      I was with my students and some people I know (Zukin was one of them, but I don't remember who else was there). We were in a multi-story house and in the middle of a Dalek invasion. We had devised a strategy to defeat them; use pillows to deflect their death-rays back at them. It wrked for a while as we made our way from the top floor to the ground floor, but the pillows stopped working; they would melt in our hands. So we switched to using baking sheets to deflect. But then the Daleks started evolving and their rays wouldn't hurt them as much so we would have to deflect for a lot longer time to defeat them. I think we were about to lose when I woke up...

    5. Sensei's Competition Last Night

      by , 08-31-2015 at 04:02 PM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      August 31, 2015


      Band Camp?

      I was at a camp for some group I was in; we went there every day to do outdoor activities and whatnot. We were always in this part of the park-space that had a little water fountain and was on the edge of these woods. Every day, I saw my high school's band camp also using a space nearby. I knew my friend K was training the baritones this year, so I wanted to go say Hi, but never got a chance to get away from the group.
      One day, as we left to eat lunch in the big mess-hall, a group of worker filed into the space we had been using after us. When we got back, we found they had torn out the water fountain and some of the trees to put in a path and fence. We were pissed and wanted our money back.



      OITNB

      I was watching Orange is the New Black season one (funny story, I watched most of season 3 but haven't seen any of S1 or S2) and all the characters looked so much younger. Then I got pulled into the show and was an inmate with them all. We had these assigned seats for movies, and special little mini fridges at each of our spots. I noticed that there was nothing in my little fridge, so I went down to the basement looking for some cans of coke. I saw a lot of different kinds of staff and workers; some were janitors, some were medics, some looked like businessmen.... I ended up bribing some of them for cans of coke for my little fridge. When I got back up and found it full of coke cans, I was so happy and took one out and had a nice, big drink.



      HOLY FRAKING MOTHER OF GOD.

      This dream legit has so many elements of a dream Zukin had last night. We're like convinced we shared this dream or at least parts of it.

      I was in an old house, living with a bunch of other people. It was being renovated, and I was looking through the bottom storage rooms to see if there was anything I could take up to my room on the very top floor. It was like a GUFF pile (General Unrestricted Free (Food), I believe it stands for; it's a word we use at the coop I lived at with Zukin that means it's free for the taking/using), and I wondered what kinds of things people had put down there. There were lots of colorful sheets, and I would have taken one of them if I didn't already have nice sheets. I left, and when I came back again there were boxes of lots of different kinds of cookies, and three people in the room. There was an older gentleman who looked like a janitor, and a couple, the woman crying and eating cookies. I overheard the conversation; the man had cheated on her, and was breaking it off with her. I felt for her and wanted to treat her to something nice but something told me not to meddle. They both left, leaving me with the older gentleman. He seemed really friendly, a bit odd, but really well-meaning. He asked if I wanted any of the sheets; I said no, because I had a star trek patterned set upstairs.

      "Oh, you like Star Trek? I have just the thing for you!" He opened a drawer in a nearby desk and ruffled through some papers. He handed me a visibly old piece of card-stock with an image printed on one side of it and writing on the back. I don't remember exactly what the image was at first, but the older man said it was a picture of Spock. I looked again, and it still wasn't Spock but the image changed! Every time I looked at it, the image on the paper was different. It eventually did show Spock; it was a black-and-white image, pretty old looking. I was super thrilled with this piece of paper and wanted badly to find Zukin to show her this supernatural thing.

      I ran up flights of stairs to try to find her, looking down at the sheet to make sure it was still working every now and then. I noticed the images were always black-and-white, and always had that old high-contrast-y quality to them even if they were modern things. About half-way through the house I felt this evil, dark presence. I turned away from where it was, but I kept running into it and I felt like it was chasing me and I kept getting glimpses of this black, shadowy figure. When I got to the ground floor of the house (there were apparently lots of basement floors), the image stopped changing. It was also in color, now. It was an image of an old wooden door, very intricate and really quite beautiful. It was at the end of a hallway or something, like a door to a closet or stairs to the basement. I kept looking back at the paper, trying to get it to change, but it wouldn't. And then, there was a banging at the front door. I had to cross right in front of the door to reach the stairs up to the top floors, so I ran. When I got to the top of the first flight of stairs I turned and saw the black figure (I could now tell it was a woman, and she was pure evil) phasing through the door and floating up towards me. I ran the rest of the way to my room without looking back.

      When I got to my room, I shut the door and locked it, and somehow I felt safer. Like I knew she couldn't get up here. So I put the now-permanent photo in my desk drawer for now. I stood in the center of my room, which was really beautifully lit, and something made me realize this was all very odd... I looked down at my hands. They looked normal, but the ruby ring I have was not how it should be. The stones on the sides of the ring were the wrong color. (through out the dream, I kept looking down at my hands to see what different ways they would look and also to keep the dream stable) I looked up again, knowing I was dreaming, and jumped up to phase through the ceiling and fly around town. The city was huge. I flew up, very fast, and then did super-fast circles and figures in the sky, pretty much just having a good time while I collected my thoughts. I remembered my most recent, most wanted goal, to summon the Face and have him tell me who he was. So I stopped where I was, about a mile above the city, and shouted, "FACE!"

      I blinked and realized I was now back in my room in that house. I felt the Face's presence behind and to my left, so I turned. He looked completely different (he was wearing the sexyest of all outfits and a pig head for some reason...)

      We greeted each other with a nod, and then I said, "So tell me, who are you exactly?"

      He took off the pig-head mask thing, and there was his normal face. "I'm your lovely dream-love-guide, love." He still used that signsongy voice and it somehow made me super horny. I sat down on the floor next to him. He sat down too, and reached over to move the hair away from my face. I pushed him down and got on top of him and it was amazing; our clothes just poofed away. I've never been fully lucid during sexy-times before. It was awesome. When we finished, I was laying on the ground next to him and he pulled himself over me, smirked and said, "Now go do those other things you wanted to do," and he phased through me and then the floor. It was a weird feeling, not a bad one though.

      I laid there on the floor thinking of my other goals and things to do. I vaguely remembered the week-two task being to make an inanimate object move and talk or something. I looked around the room and decided to go with the wardrobe in the corner; there wasn't very much furniture to pick from. I watched it and kinda wiggled my hands at it to give it life.

      It took a breath (like literally, I could see it inflate and deflate) and seemed to look at me. "Well, go on then," it said.

      "What...?"

      "Open the window," it said, and moved toward the window. I did what it said, and when I opened the window, it got really happy. It shrunk enough to fit out the window and jumped out. I expected it to break when it hit the ground, but it just bounced a little and then walked off.

      Huh. I looked out the window and remembered the TOTM to turn yourself into a planet. I've been waiting for this one to be a task of the month to try it...! I stepped back from the window, and jumped up to shoot off through the roof of the old house. I just kept going up, getting faster and faster it seemed. Getting to space was harder this time because it was full-daylight out. The sun was abnormally bright and even when I got into space, the sun was like a super-bright point radiating out. I tried to keep my back to it while in space. I flew for a while, trying to get far enough from Earth to make my own planet out of myself.

      When I felt like I was far enough away, I stopped, closed my eyes and just sort of let myself grow. I grew taller, wider, rounder. It was such an awesome experience; I was just a simple round hunk of rock, so I sped up time (lol I forgot this was my third task, too, WOOT!) to let myself grow fully and get some lifeforms on me. I could literally feel mountains, oceans and forest growing on various parts of my body. I could feel living things start to evolve, and then people building huts and villages, migrating, and building their societies. It was like I WAS physics, geology, history... I could feel all the forces of gravity pulling things to my center, I could feel the pull of the sun and I could see the path of my orbit.

      I wanted to know what kind of life existed on myself, so I focused my consciousness on a point at my edge, extended out just a touch more and detached myself from myself. I was in a hilly place, with lots of grass. But where I detached was a crunchy gravel path. I realized I was in a sort of graveyard, and suddenly I felt Zukin's presence somewhere behind me. Like, not just Zukin's DC. This was HER presence. I looked around for her; I saw a few other people but I didn't see her, and yet I could still feel her and she was moving around. I kept searching for her but woke
      up...



      I texted her right away and she told me she had had a dream where she was in an old house that her family was renovating. But she knew it was haunted AF, and wrote them a letter trying to convince them. She described a black figure haunting and harassing a girl through the house! They felt she had wronged them, and honor-killed her and buried her in the back. And then she was wandering around a hilly, grassy graveyard following people and other spirits. Which would explain why I could sense her there but could never see her.

    6. Sensei's Cometition Nights 9-12

      Night 9

      All of my dreams this night involved something about college life; 3 of them were about parties (in one of them, there were these weird vendors lining a wide stairway, and something that looked like Alf gave me some really weird drugs...), and the other was about being with my college friends and I somehow feinted and ended up i the hot TA's room.




      August 27, 2015

      Night 10

      My two full dreams were about living with Zukin's boyfriend after they broke up, then going to Target to get Pokemon cards... I felt so guilty for having that dream D:
      In the other one, I had to drive to an old school building to pick things up with a back-o or something, but it broke down like a block away from home. The repair cost was too much for me to afford so I had to sell my soul to the mechanic D:




      August 28, 2015

      Night 11

      I was a super hero in one of the dreams My super power though...... Well, I was called The Great Dildo, so you might guess what my powers were. Everyone loved me, at least. The other three dreams weren't really worth mentioning :/




      August 29, 2015

      Night 12

      Three non-lucids about school again, one of which was really bad; I was at an interview for a teaching job and suddenly lost all power to speak comprehensibly. I was completely aphasic and didn't get the job DX

      I woke up way earlier than I'd planned (do once I didn't set an alarm for WBTB; still woke up around when I would have set it lol) and went back to sleep to have this dream:

      I was on a beach, just sitting for a while. There were other people there but I wasn't concerning myself with them. The sun was setting and I was watching the sky change colors; it was so pretty. Then The super-huge night sky starts moving in, and I realize this is strange, so I look at my hands. For one thing, I didn't see my class ring or the ruby ring my mom gave me a while ago, but the real clue was the fact that my fingers were all abnormally long. Like, really creepy looking.

      I looked back up at the sky for a moment first, seeing what I could see while I tried to remember my goals. It wasn't a very high lucidity, but I knew one of the things I wanted to do was explore underwater or in a cave, so I walked out to the ocean (or lake, it could have been Lake Michigan or something) until I was up to my waist in the water, then just sort of sat down in it. It was a little hard to get myself to keep breathing, but eventually I was able to breathe normally under water. I opened looked around, having opened my eyes at first. It was murky at first but started to get clearer after a little while. About four feet ahead of me, the sea-floor dropped suddenly. I scooted toward the underwater cliff and looked down. It, surprisingly, wasn't too dark. I let myself slowly sink down, watching the cliff as I went. I wanted to find a cave, and lo-and-behold, there was one after not too long. It was about twice my height in diameter. There wasn't much exciting at first. Some sea creatures here and there but mostly just murky water haha.

      Then I turned a corner and entered this huge cavern with glowing spots in the walls. A merman came up to me and asked what I was doing here. I told him I was exploring, and asked if he could show me around. He was skeptical at first, but eventually gave in. He showed me the merpeople village and the best part was the bathrooms. Instead of water in the toilet bowl they had figured out how to use air in their pipes lol.

      I got a little bored of this place for some reason, and decided I wanted to watch the sky again. I pulled a black circle cloth out of my pockets and slapped it onto the wall near me. I stepped through it, expecting that I would end up on the beach again... I came out on the other side, not on the beach, but in the halls of the Enterprise. It was then that I remembered one of my goals was to take a trip on the Enterprise... I got giddy.

      I walked through the halls until I spotted someone in a yellow shirt. I asked them what deck I was on. Apparently this was deck 4. Good, close to the bridge. I tried random doors until I came to the turbolift, and told the computer to take me to the bridge. When the door opened, I was on this weird version of the bridge. It was a little darker, and a little more steam-punk. I looked around and then said, "What, no one's going to announce Captain on the Bridge??" Expectantly.

      The nearest crewman, another yellow-shirt, looked up and then became flustered and confused. "S'sorry sir! Didn't see you come in... Captain on the Bridge!"

      I nodded satisfactorily. Captain of the Enterprise. I went to the Captain's chair and relieved who I assumed was my Number 1. He asked for my orders. "To Galifrey!" I commanded. Everyone stopped like stone and stared at me. "But... it's in a time lock, sir. It's lost."

      "Well, let's find it!" I entered in some random coordinates and hit the big, red, ENGAGE button on the control panel in front of me. The engines started up and we entered warp. I felt the dream destabilizing here, and tried rubbing my hands together to stabilize, but something was off and I woke
      up...

    7. Sensei's Competition (Day) 5

      by , 08-23-2015 at 10:50 PM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      I took a nap on Friday after moving a bunch of my things from my old apartment. I had a couple of non-important dreams and then this one:


      I was at my parents' house, watching a movie. I can't remember much of what the movie was about, but it was something SciFi. My old dog, Emma, was sitting on the floor by my feet; she's been dead for 5 years now, and at first I didn't think anything of it but then I was thinking, "wait a minute..." I checked my hands; they were multi-colored and psychedelic.

      I pet my dog and was so happy to see her. She looked young again, like she was when I was a child. I would have sat there until I woke up if I didn't remember that I had tasks to try to complete. I didn't want to make her go, but my Step-3 task was advanced unsummoning. Since Emma isn't larger than human size, I would either have to banish something else or do it in my direct line of sight. I was going to do this, but then I thought maybe I could make her bigger. I put my thumb and pointer out and then expanded them, as if I was zooming in on a touch-screen. Emma got bigger... I made her about the size of a large coffee table in the room. I patted her again and said "Goodbye, Emma." I didn't know what exactly to try as far as unsummoning her, so I just sort of blinked and expected her to "blink" out. When I opened my eyes again, she was gone. It was a little sad, but I left my house and thought this was a perfect chance to do the intermediate league weekly challenge. I walked two doors down to the neighbor's neighbor's house. I wondered whether to knock or not, but ended up just strutting through the front door. My dream, my rules.

      I looked around the front entry-space. It was pretty normal and innocuous-looking. I saw two doors and a flight of stairs. I spent some time dinking around the bottom floor (All of the rooms on the bottom floor were all one color. There was a completely orange room, as well as green, purple, and this weird poo-brown) and then went upstairs, where I found a room full of chocolate bunnies and one full of dildos (of course.)

      I flew out one of the top-floor windows and was going to attempt the black hole task again but didn't make it very far in space before
      waking up again.

    8. Sensei's Competition Day 3

      August 20, 2015



      They have SOLD THEIR SOULS to Corporate America!

      I was in a three-week intensive final training for my Elementary-Ed master's degree. We were completing an internship at a summer camp, and in the last week of the program we were to do a collaborative piece with McDonald's. Because of this collaboration, we had a half day at the camp and the kids all roamed free for this half-day.

      One of my classmates was pissed about this, though. She boycotted the McDonald's collaboration and got a whole bunch of big bags of chips and lines them up to read "*insert my university* has SOLD THEIR SOULS to Corporate America!" I was a little confused but admired her activism and stood with her.

      That night, we all stayed in a hotel and it was so confusing and extremely haunted.



      Minecraft Woes

      I was in the Evil version of Yubaba's Bathhouse, and I had a sword and armor. My hunger bar was at zero, and I only had the half-heart left, which can't be taken away because of hunger. Apparently, in this reality, in that state monsters wouldn't be aggressive toward you. Which was good, because I was in the basement and surrounded by skeletons, creepers, spiders and zombies. I made it all the way to the door of the building but there was a creeper blocking the way and for some reason this one monster wasn't ignoring me. It blew me up and I awoke




      Wow, SubC. Smooth.

      I was in Colorado for some reason and was going to go to a Japanese summer festival with Adam (a guy I've lately been seeing casually)... The festival was held at the old dude-ranch I went to as a kid there, and I was going to be meeting him there. I parked in a parking lot wayyyyy up high in the sky with a rope ladder type obstacle to get up and down. Getting down it was fine! I got to the festival location and realized I'd forgotten something in my car, though. I started climbing and was so proud of myself for not getting tired or out of breath! but as I got within like 20-ish feet of the parking lot where I left my car, the rope ladder thing got a lot narrower and harder to navigate. I had to like squeeze myself through a solid part and pull myself up. There was a family of 4 at the top who were cheering me on as I finally made it up.

      I looked back at the thing I'd just climbed and suddenly decided I needed to move my car because I was NOT doing that again. It was then that I spotted a brown creature hopping/flying below us. I wasn't sure exactly what it was but then I suddenly realized; it was a unicorn! Except this unicorn wasn't at all what you think of when you think Unicorn. It was a shaggy, brown miniature horse with a horn that looked like it could have just been a pointy tuft of hair sticking out of its forehead. It was the derpiest little thing ever and was making squeaking/grunting noises as it plodded along giving zero fucks about how shabby it looked.

      I pointed it out to the family, and they were all fascinated and I was like "You go little Unicorn!"

      I got in my car and started to back out of the parking spot. I spotted Adam nearby and pulled up next to him, telling him to get in so I could find a new place to park. He got into my car freezing cold and with a raging boner... so I offered him my sleeping bag to warm up.

      (WTF SubC... I thought I was way dirtier than that!)

      We drove for a little bit and I saw the derpy unicorn again. And then I realized it had gone the complete other direction so how could it be here... and did a quick RC. I became lucid and stopped the car. I was in the mountains of Colorado again and looked around for more detail and ideas. I looked to the ground for something I might be able to eat for my first 3-steo task for the competition... I saw a mushroom, and figured, why not? I stuck it in my mouth and it tasted like a whole mountain. If that makes sense. I liked it somehow!

      I looked around again and spotted Adam still sitting in my car. I was disappointed to see his boner was gone (lol) but remembered I wanted to ask DCs what they do to RC. So I asked him: "What do you do to reality check?"

      He looked at me for a while and then smiled. "I always close my eyes. If I'm dreaming I see things when my eyes are closed." Interesting :O

      I decided to try for the black hole task of the month while getting my second 3-step task checked off; I jumped off, imagining myself shooting off at the speed of a rocket. It was dusk (a lot of my dreams have been dusk-time lately. It's really pretty but on the edge of bad news, as getting dark is usually a bad thing in my dreams) and I looked down to see the ground quickly moving away from me. Soon I was in space, and searched for a black hole to jump into, but I couldn't find one before I woke up

      What a Fucking Gorgeous Sight

      I spent almost an entire full-length dream souring and shooting through stars and galaxies and asteroids. It was so effing gorgeous. Nothing much happened but it was such a nice dream!



      Down South

      I was shopping for food with my family; we were visiting the south for some reason (we have no reason to be in the south really; no family there or anything lol)

      I remember trying to find what I wanted but not being able to because the isles were all labeled horridly. I was in a very bad mood and was snapping at my family and I may have started crying in the middle of the soup isle because they didn't have the cheesy potato, bean, beef, pickle (yes pickle) and tomato soup I just really, really wanted.



      Slightly Illegal

      I was doing something slightly illegal and waiting for planes to land/dock in this mid-air station about 200 ft off the ground. I was with a group of people and we had to chase the planes down and then board them while no one was looking, fiddle with some wires, and then leave unnoticed. I think we were doing something to the navigations, like setting in a new route for pre-programmed flights to get supplies to some group in need.



      Lost in My Own Neighborhood

      I was walking around my own neighborhood, trying to find my home. I was with two guys, though I don't remember who exactly they were. I was getting frustrated because I couldn't find my home and I was getting horny; I couldn't just jump my two male companions in the middle of the street so I had to wait until we got to my house. We finally found my house, and I took them to the basement. A dog greeted us at the front door, and I woke up before anything fun happened : /

    10. Finally Back in the DJ Swing (I Hope)

      by , 08-19-2015 at 04:48 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      Well, I have to restart somewhere right?

      August 18, 2015



      Minecraft

      I had a short fragment in which I was building a bridge in Minecraft; I had nothing to build with in my inventory, though. Only flowers and fish and some bowls and buckets. It was rather frustrating, and I remember looking down at my hands because I thought something was up, but they were the normal minecraft block-hands, so I didn't quite get to the realization that I was dreaming.



      I literally woke up and fell back asleep to have this exact same dream three more times.



      Ineffective Sword-Master

      I was exploring a castle and had a sword to use, but had no idea how to use it! Every time I tried to swing it, nothing happened or something really bad happened...



      Stress Dream

      I was in a competition wit the rest of my housemates; at first everything was fine and my team was even winning. One of the competitions involved cars... we were for some reason at my parents' house, and we had to drive up and down the driveway in a certain way in order to win. Another of the challenge games was a sort of soccer hybrid with a huuuuuge ball. I was taking a nap in my van after one of the challenges when my aunt came into the car to get something she'd left there... she woke me up and accidentally dislodged the brake somehow; the car started to roll forward, down the driveway. We managed to stop it, though.

      The next challenge was to build a lucky cat figure, which I knew I would win. But then things went south. The challenge after that involved picking a sentence from a list and going to a piece of paper to see what you had to do... I don't quite remember the sentence I picked but it was something French-ish and about castles and intrigue or something. I couldn't find my sentence anywhere when we had to match it to a paper, and had to get assistance from one of the counselors. She pointed me to a piece of paper at the very top left on the bulletin board, and I watched as the paper turned into a play and sucked me in; I became the lead female role in the play. But I had no idea what the lines were or the stage movements. I panicked and left the stage shortly after entering it; I had to sit there and watch as the stand-in for me went on and delivered my lines. There was even singing. Ginger (a housemate) was the lead male role, and he seemed to remember his limes at first but then left the stage as well either to comfort me or because he didn't know his lines. Zukin was in the audience, I think. I was trying to memorize my lines from the side and remembered having to sing a song about a gift of condoms.

    11. April Backlog

      WHO?
      I was at my house, and needed to do something... but I couldn't remember how to do it. I knew that Gosling knew how to do it, though. So I called him. He picked up the phone and I said "Hey-" and he just says, "Oh hey, Kestrel. Your number came up in my contacts as "WHO?" on the caller ID!" I was surprised he knew my number and amazed that he recognized my voice.


      Long Beer Run
      I was planning a party for the co-op Zukin lives in, and I had to go get some booze. But the store was really, REALLY far away. AND I got lost on the way there. After coming up along a huge lake, I turned the wrong way and ended up in the wrong town completely.



      April 17, 2014


      Union Troubles
      I was at an airport with Zukin and at least one other person, on the way back home after a trip. The job fair at the Union was the next day, so I was nervous... We were sitting at a restaurant/cafe before our flight, when I recognized my ex's voice. He was talking to someone back home, and said something about a dead body still being in the middle of the Union floor. I was worried that the job fair would be canceled because of this, and so I was frantic to get back home.


      Jammie Party
      I was in this huge building with lots and lots of people. We were all in our PJs. It was like some massive sleepover. I was moving from room to room, flirting with lots of different people (this is so not me IWL. I'm way too awkward to flirt with people). Toward the end of the dream, I had to go back to the main room, and I sat in a different spot from where I'd been before, to see if the guy I had my eyes on noticed... I don't think he did. Then there was an OK Go concert. I was indifferent-ish, which surprised me when I woke up.



      April 18, 2014


      Gasping
      I was in a huge pool. It was big enough to have waves and tides... I was staying at the edge of it because I didn't want to get lost. I had found a shoe at my Oma's house, and two people were testing it to see whose it was... I remember feeling confused and wondering why they needed to even test it. Like, did they honestly not know which one of them owned it? Wasn't one of them missing a shoe and that's all they needed to know? Was this shoe really that important...?
      They had huge boards and water chalk. They needed to dive under water and then use the chalk to sketch the bottom of the shoe... I don't really know what this would accomplish, but hey, dream logic! So we all dove down. I was watching them do the test. But one of them had a detachable nose... It was some medical thing he'd had when he was a kid. Now he pretty much had a fake nose but when it came off, he would bleed a lot. Well every time he dove, his nose came off and he would lose a lot of blood... He also couldn't breathe when the nose was off.
      I had been watching, but then I was him. I was sinking, slowly, and couldn't breathe. Well, I could breathe out, but not in. I reached out for someone to help me, but no one was there now. The surface of the water was getting farther and farther away and even when I tried to swim up, I couldn't. I saw a person near me and grabbed them so they knew I was drowning, but they didn't know what I was trying to do...
      I woke up gasping for breath. It was pretty scary....


      Huge Stores
      I was in a huge hardware store. At the back were some work rooms... they were also huge. It's kinda hard to describe; they weren't only huge, they were multi-leveled and there were lots of windows and ledges and ramps. Ian was in one of them, trying to split a large stone slab to reveal a beautiful opal inside it. I had split slabs before, so I helped him. But I ended up breaking the opal... He said it was fine, but I felt so horrible about it. I left, and wandered the halls of the store. there was a videogame section for some reason. I walked through those aisles, which had glass cabinets as if it were a frozen foods aisle... They had some really old, rare videogames and I felt like I was in heaven.


      Drunk Hiking Trip of Horror
      I was hiking drunk with my dad and two of his friends. But we got separated; my dad and I were in one spot, and the other two had gone a different way... We found out one of them had died, and the other had set up a camp there to wait for morning, but coyotes had attacked and eaten them both... Dad and I managed to make it to the car, and spent the night in it. The next morning we had to hike back down the mountain because the car was out of gas.
      We were going to go back to find the car and the other guys' bodies, so we were packing our hiking bags for the trip. Apparently all we needed was alcohol because we needed to be drunk to find this place. Good old daddy-daughter bonding, there.



      April 22, 2014


      Turkey-Peacock-Men
      I was at home with my mom and dad, and two turkeys were walking around in the yard... except they seemed to me more like peacocks. We watched them as one of them came up to the window and displayed his big feathers at us. He was green, and the other one was red. I was worried that the window would break because the green one was banging its head on it...
      I notice that the red one has gone to the windows to the bedrooms, and it looks like he is trying to take off the screens, so I go over there to shoo him away. When I get there, both of them are there, but they're human guys now. The red one is called Oro and the green one Shiki. They make me a deal, and take me to a special school because I've been chosen.
      When I get to this school, I am a kid again. Maybe 1st grade or so... I enter this new class with Oro and Shiki, who have also become kids. All of my students are in this class as well. One of them introduces me to the organization of the school; which was zero. Everything was put willy nilly around the classroom, and you had to pretty much guess what was in drawers and containers. It was also okay to chew gum and then threw the gum and people or across the room.
      About half-way through the year, the teacher decides it's time for me to be put in a couple-pair. She puts me with Oro. Apparently couple-pairs are paired through the whole school career; Oro and I were partners forever pretty much, and it was almost definitely decided that we would eventually get married, too.
      Flash forward and we're about to enter college or grad school. I was about my own age again. Oro kissed my neck and then said, "First I kiss you lips... then I kiss your neck. Do you know what happens next?" He also said something about it always being him that kisses me, that I never kiss him. Which was not true... Either way, I kissed him on the cheek and then I lick his neck. He took my hand and we were about to go to our room and have sex for the first time or something.



      April 15, 2014


      Save the Elderly!
      I was living at Zukin's Co-op, and apparently there was a rumor going around that I was into much older people of either sex. Everyone was worried about the elderly people in the area, bwahaha. They though I was going to attack the elderly. But really I was into this muscular, tall black guy who lived at the co-op, who always talked to me and helped me out. Like I was seriously thirsty for him. I was about to ask him to my room when I had to help one of the housemates braid her hair instead.

    15. This Cold Sucks

      by , 01-28-2015 at 07:29 PM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      January 28, 2015


      Wow... I went to bed pretty much as soon as I got home (around 5:00pm) and went in and out of sleep and slightly delirious waking time until the morning alarm. This cold has been kicking my ass, royally. As such, I only remember two dreams, really. There are some more fragments, but I'm honestly not sure if those moments were when I was asleep or awake...



      Oma's House

      I was at Oma's house, and was worried about getting everyone there sick. After slinking around in the corners a bit, I meet two young men. I'd never seen these guys before, so I was wondering why they were at Oma's house. I started talking to them, and found out that one of them had given up on graduate school because he hadn't finished all of the application materials, and the deadline was soon. He didn't think he had a chance at getting in this late in the year, and so he had just given up. I went online, and got access to his email to see what news there was about the application. I figured out I could open and close my hands to change the color of the background. White background meant I could edit and write in the email, while an orange background meant I could only read the email. IT was like turning on a safety lock. I got the feeling that this guy would get into the school, and was going to tell him, but he and his friend were both gone when I went to find them.

      I went to the back room to see if they were there, but when I opened the door, there was a woods and small meadow in front of me. I went through the door, and figured I was at the cabin my family owns. The chairs were all set up and I decided to go for a walk. In the woods, I met a family of deer and watched them amble along.




      Amusement Park

      I was at an amusement park of some sort. There were two sections of the park, and I wanted to get to the other one. Apparently to do that, you had to go through this underground area. It was strange, though, because the underground area was almost a complete circle, so the entrance was right next to the exit. There was a tall wall separating the two parts of the park, though, so you still HAD to use the tunnel. There were stairs and escalators at both ends, and a bunch of stalls lining the whole tunnel. I remember that by the time I got to the other end, there was a big stall completely blocking all four of the escalators up to the other section, and so I had to take the stairs. I was mad at the owners of the stall for taking up all that space, and wondering why on earth there would still be escalators if they were going to just be blocked anyways.

      When I got to the top, I saw through a door into the office of the head honcho of the tunnel, or something. Inside, a guy (maybe the same guy from my other dream. I can't be sure because of how weird of a state my mind was in) was getting some of his teeth brutally pulled out. I ran in and tried to stop the head honcho, but apparently this was completely legal? Head Honcho said this other guy owed someone his teeth, though I was still doubtful, and wanted to do something about it. It just didn't seem right to me, but the other guy told me to leave and that he was okay...

      So I exited the tunnel and found myself in what seemed to be a loading bay or construction area. I wondered where the park had gone, and even asked someone in a hardhat where the park had gone, and he was like "it's right here," and motioned toward three entertainers. One of them was a midget in a shiny purple costume, karate chopping a cat. Another was tall and pudgy wearing bright yellow, balancing something on his nose. I don't remember what the third person was doing, because I woke up.
