memorable

I know that the setting was in an underground cave. All that I can remember is that there were a few lights strewn across some underground highway and that there were these portables off to the side. I was near a portable when I pulled out a book describing how to have a lucid dream and which technique worked best for the author of the book. At the top of the text on both pages, drawings of animals and plants filled the space. Though, I doubt they had any real significance.

Well, it's time to start focusing on dreams once again.

The dream start with my aunt and uncle dropping me off at my high school after coming back from some resort. It looks nothing like it in real life, but I think nothing of it. I was handed my schedule and they had an open house sort of thing where we could visit the teachers before school officially started. The words on the paper seemed organized, but looked like a bunch of blobs, yet I somehow was able to read it. I went to my first class where two teachers stood greeting everyone. They explained that my first and second classes were in the same classroom because of budget cuts. After I talked with them, I noticed I was wearing something, though I can't remember what it was. It was like a body suit or something. I politely asked if I could go back home to change to which they nodded. However, I realized that I had a bag of clothes with me and told them that I could change right here. Everything gets foggy after this, but I remember going to another class that had a teacher who was a comedian.

After he finished making jokes, the dream scene then changes to me being in an amusement park with some family. Now that I think back, I have no clue who those people were. The sun was setting emitting a dark, blueish ambient light. The place was packed with people and I recall having to push and shove my way through. There was this area that had a road leading to it that was being roped off. I also noticed some weird game that had you shoot a bowling ball into a target, but the target was at the most crowed intersection so if you shot while someone was walking by, you'd end up hitting them in the head. It even advertised that if you won, you'd win a bottle of liqueur. For once in that entire dream, that made no sense to me. A women passing by it staggered backwards as she was almost hit in the face by it before walking off like nothing happened. My attention was soon directed towards some parade they were having. I can't actually remember anything about it other than it was a small one. After it was done I met up with my relatives and we started on our way to leave. On our way, we saw a blind man's seeing eye dog escape from his leash and dart off. A bunch of people, my imaginary father and mother included, ran after it. I somehow ended up ahead of the dog and tackled it to the ground. We forgot all about the blind man and the dream scene changed to us being in a house. I had this strange box that had deadly diseases and cures for them in a powdered from. I got some of a black powder on me giving me blisters, but when I put a blue powder on it, they disappeared. The dream ended with my father trying to fix a power socked with a paperclip.

This was an interesting dream to say the least. I guess I wasn't going through a dry-spell. I look forward to finally having my first lucid dream.

Had three weird dreams. Strange thing was, they seemed to restart at the same point, but each had their own different outcome.

The first dream started out in a main hub that was a part of some space station in the future. It was spacious, but lacked any real architectural design. I was at some market strip talking with these two people from my bus, but then the dream ended.

The second dream started back at the hub, except this time, I was in control of a space ship that was investigating something. We left the station and activated some hyperspace drive and warped to a nearby ship that was in ruins. This part was weird because part of the ship had some growth on it like in one of my previous dream. It was red and looked like it had killed all the crew inside of the ship.

That picture seems to accurately depict what I saw. Reinforcement carriers had then warped in and sent a couple of their ships to investigate, but they flew too close and contracted the growth. It ended with my ship warping out while all the surrounding ones succumbed to the growth.

The third and last dream had me once again start at that main hub area, only this time I was a crew member on the one carriers that had flown out. I was part of some reconnaissance crew that was sent to investigate what exactly happened. I remember getting into a ship and then docking inside the derelict ship only to find parts of the crew "grown" to the wall. It was really disturbing, but I soldiered on. We managed to make it to the bridge where there was only more dead people, when all of the sudden they started detaching themselves and shambling towards us like zombies. We activated the self-destruct button, but I woke up as soon as I made it back to the ship we landed in.

Man, those were some strange dreams. I think that if I have more dreams that recur, I could realize that it's a dream and become lucid. I have to say though, this wasn't the best in terms of clarity and vividness, but still interesting. I still find it strange that it was so much like a dream I've had before. P:

The first dream starts off where I and some random people are picked out to test the portal gun. We go through all the tests normally. I have to say though, it was pretty fun and make sense when I think back. The last test I can remember had me jump really high up to get to the final location. What's odd is that when I jumped up and down, the feeling would normally wake me up, but this time it hadn't. I was just jumping up and down before finally landing on the platform and going through a door. That's when I woke up.

After falling back asleep, the next dream had I remembered was leaving my house to go to some other place. I had taken the local highway out of Tucson and began on my way. Except there was something strange, I wasn't in a car at all. I was flying. But what was weird was that I didn't actually have a body, it was kind of like typing 'noclip' into a game and flying around like that. I had gone up a couple of hills before coming to a billboard where I rested. I then looked at the time and noticed my watch wasn't working, and being in what was pretty much the middle of the desert, I decided to fly off the road in hopes of trying to find a watch repairman. One thing that I remember about the setting of where I was at, was that it was at dusk. The dust in the air had this golden glow that shined on all of plants.

As I continued, I had come across this house that had a few people living in it. It looked like any normal house with a nice front yard. I remember talking to the owners where they handed me a pamphlet of some guy you traveled around the desert repairing watches. I went outside thinking to myself, "How in the world was I supposed to find this traveling watch repairman in the desert?" As I continued to travel in the direction that I was traveling in before, I came across this wooden house. Inside it lived an old lady who gave off this creepy vibe. Things get stranger when I hear a loud crash and a giant mech sort of thing starts fighting with the old lady and the owners I had just recently talked with. The old lady puts a curse on the mech before being crushed and one of the owners is knocked unconscious. After which the mech explodes leaving behind it's weapon which I run up and grab. But because this weapon has some sort of tracking device on it, a person up in an alien space station disables it rendering it useless. So, I wait a while before heading back feeling guilty about the whole situation. I get back to the house to find that the resulting explosion had destroy both the old lady's house and the original one. It was sad to watch as I saw one of the owners hug the other one who had been missing her legs and the rest of their family and roommates comfort her.

After that, I decided that I should be on my way. I flew back to the billboard before continuing on the road. I recall that this experience was a lot more appealing considering that the old dry desert gave way to a lush, forest type area. There was a river at the bottom and a couple of waterfalls on the side of cliffs. It wasn't flat, it was more mountainous. It was a nice little town that had adapted to the cliffs, although there were some roads that did lead to the top of the mountains where there were either more buildings, or parks. I remember being in a car at this point driving over dams that served as the towns electric provider that had water going over the top rather than the bottom. I also remember the radio being on some 80's station as David Bowie's "Let's Dance" came on along with "Sweet Dreams" and "Girls Just Want to Have Fun". Which surprisingly, now that I think about it, it sounded pretty clear and accurate in the dream. The dream concludes as I drive up to a park that has a sign that says "Assembly Park".

Well, this certainly concludes the long dry-spell that I've been having. Although I can't believe I missed the chances to become lucid. Although overall I feel pretty happy about this despite the fact that I've been sick this past weekend. xD

This dream that I faintly remember took place in a third-person view. It was a bunch of people inside a tomb that had no entrance or exit except through a portal in a pit. The room itself was a basic square with a pit in the center that had sand in it. The pit had a floor of sand and apparently housed some coffins of famous heroes. Surrounding the pit perimeter on the second level, there were four statues placed at each corner that resembled the grim reaper and a small rail to prevent people from falling in. On the second floor, the walls each had iron doors leading to rooms that resembled some sort of prison cell. If you opened one, a bunch of demons would come out and try to kill you. So as these people opened each door to find the key to open the portal, demons poured out each and every one. A few got injured, but not severely. It wasn't until they finally opened the last door and found the key that some demons materialized at the four statues and looked exactly like the grim reaper. The portal instantly opened and the people rushed towards the portal, all while the reapers started swinging their scythes and flying at them. They all escaped, but the room almost stayed exactly the same. The bright orange lights that once lit the room now changed into a bluish color and the tombs developed vines all over the place. The sand had also turned to grass and a large natural door appeared at one of the walls in the pit. I say "natural" because it looked like a cavern entrance made from the erosion from water.

I suppose attempting to "de-stress" myself has worked a little. xD
I know for certain though I had another dream after this, it's just that I can't seem to remember. :/
Well! I gotta say, I'm looking forward to the weekend!

All I can remember is that it took place in a city. It was an average looking city with a few skyscrapers and concrete buildings. They style of the buildings remind me of an industrial sector of a city. Nothing seemed built for looks, rather it was for efficiency. It was in the daytime and I remember being in this abandoned building that walls had crumbed. I felt so alone, there was nobody but myself. At the same time, it was a feeling of awe at what I was seeing in the city. It was silent, peaceful, and relaxing. In a way, it was both depressing and inspiring. There was also a canal nearby with a bridge leading to the other side of the city. Everything just gets fuzzy after that sadly.

I don't know why, but if I could have this dream again, I would. It just left me feeling strange...
Hard to describe, but all I know is that I need to work on recall and detail since those have slipped past me.
But not for long!

Last night I had the strangest dreams. It first started out when a friend of mine threw a party at his house. We all arrived, but everything gets foggy after that. I do faintly remember working on my friends computer because of something, but I don't remember what.

The next dream was really choppy in terms of how things progressed. Sometimes it would continue forward only to spontaneously move back giving me deja vu. I can't quite recall specifics, but I do remember being at my aunts house converted into a now zombie proof bunker. The first day was when a warning was given out telling people to look for symptoms in your neighbors. However, I went out investigating how everyone else was doing. Most of the neighbors were doing fine from what I remember, but most of us were stranded in our homes because our cars didn't work. I soon returned to my aunts house after finishing up a conversation with everyone. When it became nighttime, I went back outside to the car to try and turn it on. The strange thing was, is that there was a breathalyzer machine on the car that was both "there" and not. Almost as if it was popping in and out of existence. I put the key into the ignition and attempted to start the car, but it was just making those clicking sounds. My aunt then came out to see what I was doing. I told her to go back inside so that she doesn't get attacked by zombies. Then things went back to when I was asking around in the neighborhood about the how they were doing. This time, it was different because everyone was working on their cars rather than just standing around. Somehow I got back into the bunker area of my aunts house when we both heard a knocking from the backyard door. We stepped outside and saw a reporter holding a high definition camera with a female assistant by him. He said that he needed to take our pictures to record history, but I looked up to find a half decaying man missing both his arms and one leg, just standing there, ominously. It scared the living daylights out of me. The reporter and assistant just stood their with a dumbfounded look on their face. I snapped at my aunt and motion for her to get back into the house when I was saved by the alarm going off on my phone thus waking me up. xD

At least I remembered more detail this time rather than length or plot. Still, I can't help but feel a little closer to achieving a lucid dream considering I noticed that breathalyzer phasing in and out. P:

Last night I had the strangest dreams. The first dream started out where I was at the base of this mountain. It was green with grass and had a mist that hung in certain parts. As I made my way I up noticed a wall at the side of the mountain path as if to stop people from falling. It was black and had spirals with flowers at the end carved into it. When I reached the mountain peak I looked over and saw a whole community. Then I looked around and noticed that I was on a space colony due to the curvature of the land. It reminded me of the old colony concept art I saw when I was really young.

Something was off though, there weren't any people. I found an alternative pathway that lead downward, when out of nowhere a person appeared. I can't quite recall if it was a man or women, but I do remember it telling me that the colony was under some sort of marshal law that restricted when you can and cannot go outside. Just then, people started pouring out of their houses and the community bustled with people. I went down there, but I can't recall much after that. All I know is that there was a mother with a child seeking to escape the community which eventually lead the security forces getting involved.

The last dream was a little disturbing. It started out in my World History class where a group was presenting on some world event. They passed out this fill in the blanks paper that was from a song they were about to sing. They started singing it and some of the blanks were quite strange. One was "aliens" another was "senorita" and "industry". The class felt the song was so tear-jerking that they began to cry. I just sat there chuckling away.

Everything around me changed though I soon found myself watching a man aboard a train trying to derail to win some competition with an enemy that just so happened to be on the train with him. The competition itself took place in another city though and I don't quite recall what exactly it was all about. The train itself looked like an old 1920's locomotive.

The man had messed with the train while it was stationed at a platform not to far from the city itself. As the train pulled out of the station, he jumped out and watched from a distance. It was miles away when it exploded and the smoke cloud looked more like a small little puff of air. With his opponent now gone, the man made his way to the city where he meet a women with a single child which seemed similar to the one in my previous dream. Apparently, the child was going to fill his fathers footsteps and participate in the competition that his father was going to. Both the child and that mother had bitter feelings towards this man suspecting something was up with him. The drama ensues as the man fell in love with the mother and tried wining over her heart, but failed miserably. As the dream neared the end, the mother told the man to follow her into some park in the day. It cycled back to an area I remembered in the first dream in the space colony. When they arrived she told him that he was someone important, but the dream abruptly ended after that due to me getting a call at 8:00 in the morning.

After I fell back asleep, I was at a pool surrounded by stadium seats that were filled with people. This dream was more surreal than anything else because there were ducks engaging in synchronized swimming to classical music. When they were finished, there were very few claps from the crowds because they sucked.

I have to say, my recall certainly is getting better. Although to be honest, these dreams were borderline nightmare because of their creepiness. But nevertheless, I still enjoy the recall!

It all started out in a desert at dusk. The sky was an dark orange color from all the dust that was lingering in the air. I was talking with my dad when an old friend of mine walked across and asked me what rubber-bands I wore for my braces. I responded telling her that I used to wear rubber-bands from a green package, but moved onto wearing them from a blue package. She then proceeded on her way and I resumed talking with my dad.

The dream plot changed when a guy from a balcony not too far from me said that a gang had come into town and kidnapped children. My dad had disappeared on me so I followed some soldiers with weird, futuristic armor that were going to fight the gang. We all got into a car and drove on a curving road perched on a cliff when we saw the gang was putting kids into a van. I remember them wearing a brightly colored jackets and holding guns and a weird machine at the apex of the curve. The soldiers got out of the car and started firing at the gangs while simultaneously rescuing the children. Not only did the soldiers shoot at the gang, but they manipulated the environment around them to give them the advantage. They eventually pushed the gang back to some tree before the gang got the upper hand and made their escape. The soldiers then returned to their car and drive off. I don't know what exactly happened, but I kinda faded out of existence and the dream continued more like a movie.

Time passed and it was now nighttime. The soldiers drove back to where to they fought the gang and found them once again. In the fight, I remember them turning the ground into lava trapping some gang members in their tracks and shooting them. This time, the soldiers had won, but on of the main soldiers was shot and injured and the commander carried him to that weird machine at the apex of the curve. A blue sack enveloped the wounded soldier and the commander spotted someone at the end of the road. The person waved and walked towards him. This part was strange too because it was like a cinematic scene in a movie. The "camera" zoomed out showing them both from a 3rd person view and the commander talked about how manipulating nature would ruin it's behavior. The view then changed to a scene of a tree's that leaves were falling and a pond with ripples. He then elaborated more on his idea and the tree's leaves stopped falling and the pond became still and the camera then fell back onto him. The person nodded and left.

Everything kinda gets foggy after that, but I do remember seeing a girl floating with her arms thrust downward inside a circular object that emitted a soft blue light on her. I said to myself that I should remember drawing the knees to better my drawing skills or something like that.

Well, overall I am glad that i am remembering more and more of my dreams, so it does show that I am progressing in both length and detail!
