My otherworldly experiences.

Lucid = Orange

So, after my success at remembering a dream I nearly almost completely forgot (and bits from the dream before, but not enough to be able to write it down) I decided to try my luck with another WILD. In terms of time from the point of waking up to deciding to throw in the towel, that lasted 2 hours.
HOWEVER, this wasn't a complete failure! I had reached a VERY different state of consciousness, and I feel as if I entered a deeper state of SP than usual, so CLEARLY I'm getting somewhere! This knowledge armed me with absolute positivity, and I'm certain it was the key to my success this morning.

After lying awake for ages trying to get back to sleep, I suddenly found myself in a dream completely lucid and aware of the fact I was dreaming. My recollection of my lucid experiences are kinda vague, and I'm not sure which one came 1st and 2nd, but I shall record what I can:

(NOTE: I haven't had a lucid dream for a week and a half, and have only had 3 since my interest arose.)

I'm talking to some guy. He asks me a question but I can barely talk so I just shake my head. He doesn't approve of my answer so he hits me. I then think to myself ''Hey, what was that for?! Oh, wait... I've heard about this kinda thing before. Better get myself outta this place quick before he takes away my lucidity!'' So I jumped with the intentions of flying away, and found myself ascending, so I flapped my wings a bit and thought ''UP!'' and hey, I found myself high in the sky. ''WOO!!'' I thought to myself, and started randomly flying away, noting the fact I was EXTREMELY high and that I'm scared of heights. It scared me a little, but I knew I was dreaming so I was in control. After a while it was too much for me though, so I slowed myself down and tried to land. I started 'falling' to the ground quite fast though, so I was a little worried of what would happen. Surprisingly, I landed 'oh so softly'. I then started walking around and eventually lost lucidity.

Upon waking up, I knew I could go straight back into another dream, and I did so pretty much effortlessly:

I was now in a people-carrier with my friend Louie, some other guy I knew, and random people. Upon seeing Louie I was like ''DUDE!! I haven't seen you in ages man! How's it going? How's the weed?'' He said he was good and that he had stopped. I was like ''Good man! Same here, actually.'' Then the 'other guy' asked me how my education (college) was going. I told him ''It was going really well, until we got a week off 'cause of half term, and I then became lazy and did nothing. Since then, I haven't really been able to pick it back up.''
I can't remember what happened next (if anything at all), but the dream then went to black. HOWEVER, I was adamant that I WOULDN'T let another lucid success go this early. I could see the slightest smidge of HI (I was awake at this point, I think, but I was totally unconscious of my body) held on to that slight image, and brought myself back into another dream.

I found myself in a random house, lying next to somebody's bed on the floor. There was a man in it with glasses but I can't remember if I talked to him or not. I then thought to myself ''Hmm. What about a bit of lucid sex? I'll turn a corner and hopefully see Laura (this hawt as girl in the year above me at school) standing there if I believe it enough.
Anyway, I got up, went out of the room and into a hallway. It was night time. There was some kid walking up and down the hallway holding a smaller child in his arms, and loads of doors either side of me. I thought to myself ''This house is huge. It must be some sort of foster care home like in Tracy Beaker or w/e'' I then decided to explore this place a bit and turned a corner. More doors. So, I went through a door expecting to see Laura. There was a small girl (aged 8-10 maybe) sitting on her bed watching TV. I thought ''No man. Just no.'' and went out the room, back down the hallway and saw that same kid again holding the smaller kid in his arms (he looked sad. I wondered what had happened to both of them), turned a corner and hoped for the best. No luck. So I ventured more around this strange place hoping to see her around every corner. Still nothing. Then I woke up.

Now, I know more than this happened because I remember more people and more places, however, I really can't remember it well. In any case, I'm VERY proud of myself for doubling my lucid count in one morning!

Note: I must be getting better at dream recall/recognising when I've just finished a REM period, because if it weren't for the fact I clicked to the detail at the end of this entry, I would have forgotten the entire thing.

I'm in Poundland (with a random school class, it would seem) on the second floor (which doesn't actually exist, but hey). We're all sitting around random tills in groups packaging (what I think was) some sort of pasta (which was crunchy but not ridiculously hard).
Anywhoo, we're (my group) all going about doing our own thing and generally messing around (as per most of my school days) and eating from this massive pile of 'pasta' that's on the till in front of us. There's some stuck up girl on the till next to us (who needs to go die in a hole) laughing at my face, too (yeah, I got A LOT of abuse during school).
Class ends. We're all free to leave for lunch, so I stuff my pockets with this pasta stuff and walk out with 2 of my best mates Axl and Callum. There's music playing and it's ridiculously loud so we have to yell to communicate with each other. As we're going downstairs I ask Axl what we have next but he's unsure (I think the music fades out too, or gets quieter at least), so Callum steps in and tells us we have R.S next. Axl says ''Good work Callum.'' I then think to myself ''Oh, sweet. That's pretty much a free lesson then since we do nothing anyway? I know, I'll buy some sweets for it since we're in Poundland!'' So me and Callum head towards the sweets at the front of the store (Axl's randomly disappeared), and I'm looking at the random bits near the tills, and pick out something, then look at these shelves nearby. The sweets are too high up for me so I ask Callum to give me a hand but instead he goes ''Aww, look at this!'' and he's holding a 'World of Warcraft: Cataclysm' CD in his hand which he found on the shelf below what I'm after. I only have a £10 gift voucher though and it's £15, so I tell him I can't afford it (plus I can't afford the subscription currently, which I remembered in my dream).
He then starts looking at the Xbox's on the same shelf (which, for some reason, are PS1's? Although at the time we think they're Xbox's) there was 3 types: The classic grey one, a typical camo skinned one, and a black camo skinned one (the black one being the newest, most advanced one, like in real life). Then he starts looking at the controllers and manages to break one, laughing and showing me the buttons, which he quickly hides.
At this point I'm getting annoyed because I originally just wanted a lift up so I tell him ''C'mon man give me a lift!'', to which he agrees to and I grab 2/3 bags of sweets. I'm thinking at the time that this is going to be over £5 but the guy at the till nearest to us read my thoughts and told me that it was only £3 something (£3.20 I think). He was quite friendly actually, and started talking to me, so I communed back, saying ''Really?! I might as well spend a fiver then! Spending a fiver is always good.'' he agreed totally and I then started thinking what I would buy next. To get a better view of a store, I decided to climb up a stock cage, however, I got my left boot stuck. I ignored it and then spotted the items of my choice: chocolate. I then had to ask Callum to help me get down. Once I had successfully got down, I handed him a square of chocolate (which I had just randomly spawned for no apparent reason?) and he ate it.
We then go to the isle (which was right next to the cage, funnily enough) and I'm like ''Dude, what should we get?'' he just stands there smiling and doesn't answer. So I ask him again ''Dude?!'' Still no answer.

Then I realise everything is black. I'm lying in my bed with my eyes closed (haven't moved at all upon waking up, and totally unaware of my venture through Poundland) thinking ''Hey, I'm awake? WAIT. That means I just finished a REM cycle! What did I dream about?!'' Then everything came to my remembrance, and I decided to write it down.
