Exploring My Imagination

March 15, 2012
Last night was absolutely FANTASTIC! I don't know how or why, but somehow I managed to have an amazing and long lucid dream- without even trying!! I have been sick lately so when I went to bed I didn't even bother to try and tell myself mantras or anything. I am so surprised at what happened

Right away I knew that I was lucid. I was in my parent's room for some reason, and on the wall there was some kind of game going on. Since I knew I was dreaming, I decided to leave and go do something fun. I went to the door and tried to act like something awesome was behind it, but all there was was my hallway. For some reason, my friend was there with me and it was like we were just hanging out together. She knew it was a dream as well. I went downstairs and went outside. When I was opening the door I remembered my dream sign (salmon skies) and wondered if it would be like that. When I stepped out I saw that it was nighttime and only a small section had my dream sign on it. I was baffled by how real everything felt. Me and my friend walked down to the street and decided to fly. She told me that she was never reall good at flying, but she gave it a try anyway. I knew I could fly already, because I had done it numerous times before (when I was little). I kicked off the ground and started to float up. The feeling was incredible. I soared around a little bit, trying to get a feel for the air. I tried to fly up, but it was difficult to get very high. I also tried to go faster, but again it didn't work very well. We decided to get down and do something else. I remembered that one of the things I wanted to do was become a vampire. I could feel my body transform in a way, not really physically but more like I was gaining a lot of power. I wanted to see how fast I was and zipped around my yard super fast, it was like I was teleporting myself instead of running . Afterwards I attacked a DC (lol). When my little vampire adventure was over I found myself back inside, standing in a room. When I was there I remembered the competition I was a part of and wondered what I needed to do for my goals. I had fly down, as well as super speed. All I needed to do was eat something. I turned to my friend and said "does blood count?" (from my previous little vampire spell haha). I wasn't really serious, and I also believed that I had eaten sun chips earlier, but I couldn't be sure. So I conjured up a chocolate cake to the best of my ability. I wasn't so sure if I conjured it up well so I asked my friend "do you see a cake here?" I held up my plate for her to see, and sure enough, there was a big, delicious piece of chocolate cake. I dug in. I can't remember if it had tasted good or not, but oh we'll . After I finished my cake me and my friend went to where my brother was sleeping (note: we walked through doors to get do different places). We tried to 'wake him up' to share the dream with us, but he was fast asleep. The dream faded after that.

After the dream faded it went into a false awakening where I wrote my dream on dreamviews.

This was my first long and vivid lucid dream!!! I can't wait to have more like this in the future!!

This dream began at my friend's house. I'm not really sure what happened there but then dream skipped to my school. Our class is sitting at our desks, preparing to watch a movie. They told us that we will be watching Dreamworks How to Train Your Dragon. The whole class didn't seem very enthusiastic about this but I was very excited. I had seen the movie so many times and would have loved to see it again. I remember leaning towards my friends and saying "watch. I am going to recite the beginning word for word." However, something was off about the movie so my wording didn't quite match.

It's hard to recall what happened during the rest of the dream but I believe my friend got into a fight with her dad or something.

When I woke up this morning I couldnt remember anything. However, when I took a nap today I had one dream

I can't really remember how this dream started. The furthest thing I can remember is that I woke up in my bed. When I looked at the clock the numbers kept blinking, and I didn't know why. I messed around with it for a while and found that when I turned it a certain way, it stops. I was curious as to why that direction was so special, but I went back to bed (in my dream). When I 'woke up' again I saw that the clock was still facing in that direction, only it was facing another alarm clock located on the other side of my room. I remember thinking, "wait, I don't have that clock anymore!" but I never became lucid. I think I just dismissed it as some weird phenomenon

The dream is jumbled so I can't recall when the pink slime came into the picture. All I know is that the pink slime was some sort of alien substance that was everywhere. It disguised itself as different everyday objects. Apparently, the extra clock that was in my room was made out of the pink slime. My dream skipped to a new scene of me watching the news. The news lady on the TV had an update on the slime.

She said something like: "Imagine this. Your five year old son drops a tomato on the floor. When he goes to step on it it doesn't squirt tomato juice, but turns into a thick, pink goo." (while she says all of this a scene of a little boy stepping on a tomato is playing). After she says all of that it goes to show more footage of things turning into pink stuff. The news lady says nothing after that, and I remember feeling annoyed that the news went through all of that trouble to tell the public nothing about what was going on. After that I wake up

March 12, 2012
I didn't remember all of my dreams fully, but I still managed to recall three of them

1) In this dream I am some sort of light sorceress- a force for good. I am somehow magically connected to a dark sorcerer. He and I are friends, spending our time hanging out in secret, trying to avoid others in case we were caught. At one point I am reading a story to a crowd, I believe to test and see if our connection was real.
The rest is fuzzy and I can't remember a lot. I think at one point Spike from My Little Pony was there, watching me read my story with the rest of the crowd.

2) I am deciding what college I want to go to. After looking at a few choices, I finally decide on this Military college. While I am there I am always worried that I am going to be yelled at for doing something wrong. I remember something had gone amiss while I was there- like some kind of liquid spilled from a bucket or something. I can't remember anything else.

3) The last dream was an action/nightmare dream, and it had to do with the TV show Bones. In my dream, Agent Booth (one of the characters) is arrested and taken to a jail cell. In that cell is another man. After they are sitting there for a while, the other man takes Booth and snaps his neck, supposedly killing him. He tosses his body off to the side like nothing happened. However, a few seconds later agent Booth's body starts to morph into this creepy mummy-looking zombie thing. He gets up with lightning speed and kills the man who had snapped his neck not a minute before. At this point it is like I am in the body of the mummy-thing, not necessarily myself but more like I am experiencing things through his point of view. I can feel it as he smashes through the jail cell and takes off down the hall, it is so fast it is as though he is gliding. Alarms go off and police officers try to catch up, but it's practically impossible. He runs down a flight of stairs and reaches the exit door, although it is locked and very strong. I sense his panic as he struggles to get it open, eventually smashing his hand through the door's glass and unlocking it from the outside. Just in time too, because just as he takes off from the exit the police officers had reached where he was.
Shortly after that Booth returns back to normal and his friends try to make him feel better, saying that what happened to him was a reaction to the man in the cell. Once they were near each other his evil set off his mutation. This seems to make him feel better. The rest of the dream is fuzzy and that's all I could remember when I woke up

March 11, 2012

It's hard to tell where this dream started but I believe it began with the theme of Eragon. I remember seeing dragons flying and the idea that they needed to escape to somewhere. They decided to escape to another planet located far away. When they got there they saw a bunch of people with light sabers, battling each other. I believe this to be one of the planets in star wars. The rest is a little fuzzy but I can remember seeing Leah and Han Solo at one point.

The dream then switches to a new scene. I am sitting in my car with my family, on our way to the grocery store. We are heading down a road when I notice a very large turtle shell in the grass off to the side. I point it out to my family but they don't seem to care. A few seconds later I see another turtle shell in the grass. Soon after we arrive in the parking lot of the store. Off to the side there is a small section of grass where I see something fuzzy. I ask my parents if I can stay outside while they go shopping.

I go to investigate the fuzzy things and see that it is a pile of kittens and baby chicks sleeping . I thought it was absolutely adorable and get all excited when I see a blue kitty. The rest of the dream is fuzzy but I can remember my family coming back and looking at the animals as well

I didn't write this dream down right away so I'm just going to summarize

The first part of the dream is extremely fuzzy. All I can remember is the fact that I faked my own death.

During the second part I am at this large football field. Off to the side are some tables. I, and a few others, are wearing party party hats and other party attire, most likely for a birthday. I remember gloating to them about how my parents thought I was dead

I then see some girl on the football field being a bully to someone else. I feel enraged and have a strong urge to beat her up, so I follow her. After a short while I manage to get near enough to punch her, and I stop when she is knocked out. After that I was all excited and proud.

The dream is fuzzy after that but I can recall flames and disaster as well as the fact that I was over 100 years old :/

March 3, 2012
So last night I fell asleep and forgot to use the app. However, even without it I managed to recall three separate dreams sonI guess I'm ok

1) Fragment- I am with Damon from the vampire diaries. I cannot recall any details :/

2) Me and my family are at this large estate-thing. I'm standing outside and it's nighttime, there is snow on the ground. I know that we are here for some big show/event that's going on and that there will be a bunch of celebrities.

We all walk over to this large porch-like structure with a roof to shelter ourselves from the cold air and snow. As we take a seat I notice two figures walking over, both elderly men. When they reach us I recognize them as celebrities, one being Tim Allen (I think).

The two celebrities ask if they could join us and we all get excited as they sit at our table. They both pull out drinking classes and a bottle of scotch, looking happy. When they pour the glasses one says "bottoms up!" and the game begins. One after one they drown down more scotch.

I am really excited at this point. All I can think is I must post this to Facebook!!! Looking over at my sister, however, I notice that she already has her phone out and probably posted about the celebrities before me. That's ok, though, since I don't like Facebook anyway.

After a time I decide to get up and walk in the snow. The other celebrity calls out to me asking "what's the snow like?" I bend down and and roll a bunch of snow into a ball. I hold it up for him to see, demonstrating that it is good snow, nice and sticky. He looks at it and asks, "What's it taste like?" I find this question to be incredibly stupid so when I bite into it I reply sarcastically: "like snow." I toss the snow on the ground and start to leave, but then he asks: "I hope we're not missing the show, could you go check and see that it hasn't started yet?" My brother and I start to walk towards the building where the event is being held and peer inside the gym. There are a bunch of people in robes standing around for the opening ceremony, so I hurry back to tell them.

After I informed everyone I decided to get something to eat. I walk into this kitchen area and hear scratching and whining coming from the oven. When I open it up I see my dog Cooper, and he doesn't look so good. I take him out and hold him, noticing there is another dachshund in there too, but it's already dead. Holding my dog I try to comfort him, but he dies in my arms .

Crying, I go to confront my brother. When I find him I ask him why Cooper was in the oven and not with him. He looks surprised and tells me had no idea he was in there, and that he thought Cooper had already died beforehand. When I ask him why that is he tells me that when he was playing with Cooper in the snow the dog had run and fallen over a high ledge. My brother went to check if he was ok but the fall was too bad and he didn't survive.

We both head back to the porch are where our family still is. As we near the area Cooper comes running from behind everyone, towards me. When he reaches me I somehow know he's just a ghost, but I don't care. I pick him up and stroke him, telling him I'll never let him get hurt again. I woke up crying and kept having to reassure myself that Cooper was alright .

3) It's hard to recall when and where this dream began, but the earliest scene was a small pond in the middle of the forest. There was a man there- it was John Carter (from the new movie, John Carter).

The dream somehow transitions to the desert where John Carter is approached by these people. They tell him that he must follow his hand (which glows) in order to survive. When they leave he hears something approaching and runs, his hand glowing when he is running in the right direction.

Suddenly, John Falls into an underground cave. It's dark but it is the perfect escape route. He follows his hand throughout the caves and at some point the whole thing turned more cartoon-like. He is suddenly accompanied by a woman who looks to be dressed like a Native American.

When they finally exit the cave they start to form a plan of some kind- it is no longer a cartoon. They are planning to do something to this woman who lives in a trailer.

I can't recall many details but I know the rest had to do with the Hunger Games and some park ranger guy.

So I havent been totally on top of my dream journaling lately. I decided today that I should get something down so I don't lose my motivation completely. Here are just a few highlights of some dreams I had over the past week or so:

1) This dream began with me going to school. On my way out I noticed some friends a few doors down. I went over there. The rest of the dream involved me hanging out there and suddenly there were fairies. We had to get rid of them- they were very mean. At the end I was in their house alone and I went all vampire-like and ran superspeed up to the fairy trying to scare it.

2) This dream was pretty strange. In the beginning I was cutting dresses out in my room with some device. I believe I was making prom dresses. For some reason a guy that I hardly know from school is camped out in the middle of my room- between mine and my sister's beds. Apparently he had been living there for a while. Later on I ended up giving him a tuxedo. Towards the end he ended up having a sleepover with a friend of his under my bed o.O.

That's pretty much it. I had a few more but I never wrote them down so the details are fuzzy and scattered. Tonight I hope to use my dream inducer app since I had my first lucid dream the night I used it

February 20, 2012
YAY!!! I am no longer in my mini dry spell . I recalled 3 dreams and had a lucid dream (successful WILD attempt).

1) I'm hiding behind bushes, looking at the entrance to a large brick building (I think it's a baseball park). I am trying to smuggle in an alien who is hidden away in my backpack, disguised as a teddy bear. I finally decide to go for it and walk out toward the entrance where a guard guy is standing and letting people in. Before I enter he stops me and tells me he has to check my phone before I enter, so I hand it to him. He gives it back but tells me in a very nasty way that if I were to be doing something I shouldn't, bad things will happen. I walked in but I kept coming out for some reason. When I finally go in the room I enter is not the ballpark but an area behind the bleachers in the arena where people sit on mini- bleachers, watching the game on TV. I walk towards the place where my mom is sitting (I suddenly have a bike with me). I set down the bike on the bleachers but my mom then yells at me and tells me to move it. I try to put it in theis small area away rom the people but it is a little too small for my bike. My mother continues to lecture me until I decide to leave. I'm not sure where I put the bike but I end up in this room that looks like the place I used to dance when I was little. I take out the alien dude and talk to him- my objective being to get him to his home planet. There are others of his kind around him. After that I wake up.

2) when I fall apback asleep I have my second dream. I was at this band thing where I play in a large band with other kids from around the state. The conductor leads us into a warm up, I play my clarinet. When we start on the real music I get totally confused, I'm playing horribly and don't know what I'm doing. A friend of mine, who doesn't play an instrument in RL, turns around and tells me something, but I can't hear her. I finally decide to leave because I didn't want to be there. I turn to my friends mom who is sitting next to me, checking in students and giving them passes to leave and such. It takes a while to get her attention. When I do I ask her If I may borrow her phone to call someone so I can leave. She hands it to me and I get up to use the phone in the hallway. When I get out there I run into one of the women who runs the whole and thing and she asks why I am not in there, like I should be. I lie and tell her I'm really tired and don't feel well, so I'm going home. I don't know if she believes me or not but she leaves. I start to walk down the hallway again and run into a friend of mine. We start talking as we walk and I try to call home. When I look down to dial the numbers there is no phone, just a small hair tie. I try to untangle the strings on it because apparently it can be used as a phone, but it doesn't work. I ask my friend if I may use his phone and he agrees. After he hands it to me he leaves. After I used the phone I am walking down the hallway a little more where I run into another person from school- one that I don't really know. We talk for a little bit and sit on the steps near the front of the building. I look into the gymnasium and see the girls basketball team. For some reason they are in there getting their blood drawn . I then got up because I needed to get my instrument and such, but I was reluctant. I didn't want to run into anyone else and answer questions. I figure that If I leave my stuff my friend's mom will bring it home for me. I woke up before I could make a decision.

3) after I woke p and recorded my last dream I figured I would try to WILD. I lay in my bed for a while, just trying to fall asleep. When I realize I am just abou asleep I start to focus on staying alert. I can feel my whole body shaking slightly and eventually I enter the dream. Right away I knew I was lucid. I was on this boat, sailing down a river. I don't remember much but I think I talked to someone. After that I lose my lucidity and the dream continues for a few seconds. I wake up suddenly and go back to sleep. I'm not sure if I tried again but it was my very first lucid!!

4) Me and my family are going to stay at this hotel-resort-thing. When we first arrived it was very snowy and everything was white. We walked in and checked in with the person at the desk. Right away we notice that the hotel is disgusting . I think my cousins joined us a one point and we all went searching for our room. We walk down this hallway but at the end the wall is blown out and our room isn't there. The mother of one of my friend's leads us to the parking lot, saying she found another little place that the hotel set up for the guests. I don't see it at first but when I turn a row of cars I spot it. It looked like a bridge with a bunch of small rooms on top. Me and my family go up. When we reach our room it isn't a room anymore, just our car. There is a lady in front of us who is staying in her car. She says something but I can't recall what it was :/. We get in the car and I sit down. One of my cousins is forced to go to there own car to make room for my brother.

My dream then skips to us driving in our car. It isn't snowy anymore but bright and warm. In front of us are my aunt, uncle, and cousins riding in a golf cart. It is too small for all of them so one of my cousins has to hang on to the outside. Someone said "They're not going to fit!" I look around but don't see anything they won't fit in, so I just assume it is because of the branched on the trees. Before I wake up I think that maybe I missed something and there is a tunnel up ahead- but I don't get to find out in time. After that I wake up.

I am VERY happy I had my first lucid dream!!
I tried out my new dream inducer app last night and clearly it worked extremely well ^.

February 19, 2012
I had a tough time getting to sleep last night and couldn't remember any of my dreams when I woke up :/.

Yesterday I bought the dream inducer app thing that plays binural beats as you fall asleep. A lot of people have said it works great so I think I am going to try it tonight. I attempted last night but I kept getting disturbed as I was falling asleep so I gave up.

February 18, 2012
Still nothing interesting going on- just a dream fragment. I know I had more than that but I just can't quite remember the rest . I also tried a WBTB with a WILD, which almost worked, but when I felt like I was going into a dream the whole thing just faded and it wouldn't work

Fragment: not much, just me doing math for some reason :/

I think the problem I am having might be because of my alarm clock. In my room it sits on this thing that hangs on my wall, kind of like a shelf. Every morning when it goes off I have to sit up and turn it off. I think all this movement is causing me to forget, so I will be sure to place it somewhere else and see how that goes .

February 17, 2012
Dream recall getting no better than previous nights, actually it seems to have gotten worse. I can only remember a dream fragment

It is just a flash of these rocket shoe things, someone is wearing them with jeans. Then it switches to another person wearing this body suit witho the shoes. The shoes are clear and bulky. The body suit was dark blue. Apparently, the suit was made by a friend of mine.

February 16, 2012
My dream recall has been horrible lately it seems like my dreams just keep getting less vivid every day. Anyway I had a short full dream and two dream fragments. Here they are:

1) This dream was like a false awakening again. I 'got up' from a dream and wrote it down in my journal. Too bad when I got up for real I found out that it never happened

2) Fragment: not a lot here but I know it had something to do with a mars rover excavating rocks.

3) Fragment: this was another false awakening but I can't remember much. Just the aspect of waking up. The rest is all fuzzy.

I am determined to get better dream recall! If anyone has tips I would love to hear them

Edit* I remembered something today. I was in class at school talking to my English teacher. At one point she offered me a baked potato that was sitting on her desk because she wasn't going to eat it. O.o

February 15, 2012
Last night was a very lame night. I tried a new method where I write down the days events before I go to bed and it worked, however not how I wanted it to. I remember waking up a few times during the night after some pretty good dreams, but I decided to be stupid and not write them down. All I remembered when I got up this morning were a couple of dream fragments. I will try again tonight and make sure to write the dreams down as soon as I get up.

1) Fragment: This was just a flash of something, not much at all. I can recall dreaming about a fruit cup that someone (or I) was holding. That's it

2) Fragment: It's hard to remember but I think I dreamt about school again. It's very faint so I can't recall any further details.

February 14, 2012
I remembered two full dreams and one dream fragment last night although my two full ones were short and not very vivid, it still counts

1) Dream Fragment- the whole dream took place in the locker room of some football team. I think there was a murder. The coach might have been angry. I can also recall seeing a black bag.

2) My second dream was basically a false awakening, although I as never lucid beforehand. It started with me waking up in my bed and sitting up so I can write something down- maybe a dream. I looked around for a second and the room was dark, so I tried to turn on the lights. However, when I tried to turn the switch they wouldn't turn on. I was confuse as to why that was, and wondered if the lights had gone out. Finally I turned the switch again and after a few seconds the bulb lit up. I should have realized this was a dream because the whole light thing basically screamed "this is not real!" but I guess I'll need a little more practice.

3) My final dream was also short and was cartoon-style. It had to do with Spongebob. Some new employee came and started to work at the Krusty Krab. It later became evident that he was, in fact, a cannibal and was bent on eating everyone. I'm not sure but he might have eaten Spongebob, squid ward, and Mr. Krabs. It then skips to a new scene where the cannibal guy opend the restaurant and it looks different- almost Asian style. The customers have to sit on these platform things that when they were sat on they turned into ovens. Everyone starts roasting, although they are completely oblivious, and the cannibal (and maybe a few friends) start to devour everyone. I then wake up.
