I am walking behind a girl who has the same tattoo as me on her leg, the waterfall one. I notice this to be strange so I do a reality check, however it does not work. I do not become lucid, the quality of the RC was very bad.

I was on a some cross country run where there were obstacles we had to pass. like jumping off cliffs and onto another rock. after passing all the obstacles, we had to run a long distance. I took the lead, I was jogging briskly and was not getting tired.

scene changed to being in a classroom
not a class i was registered in, but for some reason i was in there doing the assignments. like i was trying to get credits for free. Jessica was there, she was with a guy, probably her boyfriend. she sat to my right. even in my dream i am awkward around her, but i tried not to be.

I was inside a fast food shop that resembled the el pollo loco on imperial hwy, but instead they were selling ice cream. I am looking at the menu located behind the counter and had a hard time reading the items. there were spaces in between letters and the titles of the ice cream ran multiple lines. I order 3 scoops, and tell the server to pick a random flavor for the last scoop.

It seemed to be the last day of school, perhaps last day of high school. But the setting is back in RL Stevenson elementary school, and the classroom was my 4th grade classroom in Ms. Quaily's bungalow 4. The interior looked more like my World History class from senior year. We had to take a final exam, and as usual I was worried about not passing. Before beginning the test, one of the students stood in front of the class and recited a song or poem (or it could have been me that did this).

Time skips and it seems like the test is over and everyone, including me, is happy about it. I get a sense of joy and relief from completing high school. I go over to my seat and Tai Yang Chen shows me a drawing, it was a drawing of Ryu and Chun Li in front of a water fall.

I exit the classroom and the whole school (RLS) seems to be in celebration. There are students all over the campus heading out of their classrooms. It feels more like the last day of Tustin High School. I run into Viet and he walks with me for a while.

As I'm walking along with Viet among all the happy students, I suddenly realize that I have my T shirt on backwards. We walk into a shaded area and I take off my shirt to correct it. He begins laughing hysterically at me, and out of nowhere Ada walks up to me. At this point I have my shirt off and I can see myself from a 3rd person's point of view. My physique is a lot more impressive than what it really is. I give Ada a hug to congratulate her on graduation and our bare arms touch. I feel a sense of intimacy. I continue to walk and talk with her with my arms around her.

I was outside my apartment complex where the entrance to the garage is. Matt Ogus was on the other side of the garage sitting, appearing to be waiting for someone to pick him up. I recognize him and conjure up the courage to go up to him and say something along the lines of "Matt Ogus? I'm a big fan, I watch all your videos." Then we shake hands and I leave him alone.

Time appears to skip and we are in the same situation all over again, this time he invites me to go train with him at his gym. I agree and we arrive at a strange gym. It wasn't 24 hour fitness or anything like that, but more of a private gym for MMA or something.

The first thing we do is we slide down this pole like a fireman's pole, but it goes down this tunnel/tube like a water slide, both vertically and horizontally. I go first and I have a hard time with this exercise, I feel like it is tough on my core. Matt goes after me and I feel like I am slowing him down.

After that he was going to do the incline bench press but I tell him that I'm going to pass this time around.

I am not entirely sure if I became lucid in this dream. But even if it wasn't, I feel like this was a huge step forward because I can identify something that caused me to suspect I was dreaming. The first time I had a lucid dream, I could not identify the trigger.

After becoming lucid (or not) the dream did not feel that real, it felt like I was laying down daydreaming with my eyes closed, rather than in a full blown REM period.

looking back to it, I think this may just be a regular dream where I dreamed about being lucid. It was nothing like the first time I became lucid.

I was in Tony's garage and I needed to move my car out. There was another car parked directly behind me (his mom's?), but there was just barely enough room for me to carefully reverse out. As I began to reverse, my feet felt extremely heavy and I could not control the braking and the gas, so the car just slowly reversed without my control. I should have already hit the car behind me, but my car just continued to slowly reverse.

At this point I realized I was dreaming. I became extremely excited and my heart was pounding, but still remembered to do a reality check. Still I had very little control of my body, and the reality checks I did was extremely vague. I plugged my nose and tried to breathe, but I don't actually remember what the result was. Also, this dream did not seem to change in vividness after becoming lucid. It ended rather quickly after this without me being able to do anything else.

It was in the evening, just before sunset. I was in my car in the parking lot of an unfamiliar library. I go inside with the intention of studying, but inside it was more like an entertainment place. It had arcades with street fighter games. I sat and played one of the street fighter machines, and I notice that one of the buttons was missing. A girl sits on the machine to my right and begins playing.

At this time I was ready to leave. I take my backpack and begin to walk out, now it seems like a library again, and some kids in there play a prank on me by putting weird stickers (screen covers) on my phone and putting it back in my backpack. Some blonde girl is pulling on my pants as I walk out. However I don't realize this until I am back in my car and I pull it out.

Back in my car, it is now dark. I realize that my engine has been left on the whole time I was inside the library. I look at the hot/cold meter and it is in the middle. However my car seems to be fine, so I take off.

I am driving back, and it feels like I am very far from home. Like I am in Loma Linda after taking Andrew to the Hospital. I try to input my address into my phone to use the GPS system, and this is when i noticed my phones had weird stickers on it, like a screen protector made for a different phone and shit. It is dark and I need to piss so I am looking for a gas station, at the same time I am looking for some fun (strip club, prostitute).

I drive by a brightly lit gas station but I notice a prostitute walking around. I focus my attention on her first. I then notice that the store next to the gas station was some kind of art studio, and there was a naked woman inside posing as a model. I focus my attention on that. By this time the people in the gas station are staring at me, so I decide to go elsewhere.

I go across the street to another well lit gas station, a Valero. When I get out of my car to go inside, I first go inside the wrong store, which was the one next to it.

This dream left off in the same location as the one prior to it. I cannot remember anything from the prior dream other than it involved my mom.

I was waiting for the public bus at the corner of Red Hill and El Camino, where the uhaul station is. When I get on the bus, I leave my stuff on the bench, and did not bring it with me. Someone on the bus notices this and points it out to me, yet it does not cause me to go back and get it. The bus takes off and ends up somewhere in Los Angeles. It does not go along normal streets, but it appeared to go underground like a subway. I see rich people playing tennis and I ask someone "is this beverly hills?" "No" he replies. I end up in some mansion, or a museum.

Last night I tried listening to the iDoser Lucid Dream track while in bed. It is about a 30 minute track that just sounds like humming. About 25 minutes into the track, I began to see colorful geometric shapes moving around. It reminded me of fragments of a stained glass window. This went on for about five seconds until I opened my eyes. The strange thing is that I felt like my eyes opened involuntarily. I suspected that this might be the hallucinations that some people experience while they transition to sleep paralysis, so I tried not to move and concentrate, however my eyes seemed to open by itself and I fell out of it.

This night I did not remember any dreams.

Reoccurring theme of being back in school and in danger of not graduating due to failing a class.

This time I was back in Tustin High and was in an english class with a female teacher. As usual, I am in danger of not passing the class because I had not been showing up. I fear that I have missed assignments and quizzes. I see myself at home in my bedroom, waking up not in time to attend class, and trying to figure out if I can attend a different session as if it was a college course.

I attend class on the final day, and the teacher was giving her final speech to the class. In the middle of the speech, sudents begin to leave the classroom as if the class had already finished. I stayed until the very end, then leave the classroom. The location of this classroom was across from Mrs. Doyle's classroom.

I exit the classroom and the school appeared to be empty, like one of those days where I stayed late after school for 7th period. I run into Oleg, my friend who I have not seen since 5th grade. We talk and I tell him about my concerns with not passing the class.

We walk across the campus to another class, this time a wood shop class. Again I have the feeling that I may not pass this class either.

Brian and I were in Tommy's apartment complex neighborhood. We were either trying to rob someone's garage, or we were hiding from something. We leave the place and he is driving, somehow he crosses the divider and is driving on the wrong side of the road with cars coming at us. He is able to avoid them and we end up in the backseat of a Van or SUV with a stranger woman driving, and other strangers also inside.

Mike and Jeanne were in the seats in front of us. Mike looks different, he has ear piercings and tattoos. He shows me his 3/4 koi sleeve, which somewhat resembles mine, but has more of a water color effect, with multiple fish. He talks to me about getting a tattoo on his face, and I think of Mike Tyson.

I learn that Mike and Jeanne are dating as they are intimate with one another. The van pulls into an alley because the driver got a phone call. We all leave the van and head for an asian restaurant. There were a lot of people waiting outside the restaurant, similar to 85 degrees.

I am talking to Veronica as she moves up on an elevator. She gets to a point where I lose contact. The hotel turns into a school campus. A Middle school it seems to be. I look at my watch and realize that I need to be in class.

I go into a classroom and sit down at my desk. Mickers is the teacher and he strangely writes my name on the board within some kind of poem or verse.

There were workbooks inside the desk and one was a science (chemistry/biology) book. The setting changes to a chemistry lab where it was raining indoors. I am performing a chemistry exercise and trying to fill in the workbooks. the rain washes my pencil marks from the book. there was also a lady helping/monitoring me through the assignment.

I believe the raining indoors has to do with my listening to RainyMood that night while I slept.

This dream was particularly vivid

I notice from my bedroom that a plane in the sky is falling & and black smoke. It gets closer and closer to me as it falls, and eventually it goes over my roof where I cannot see it anymore. So I run out to the front porch to continue watching it.

I get a sense of relief that the plane did not crash into me. The plane ends up falling into a body of water far away, but I can still see it from the porch. The crash creates a large impact like a bomb and sends me flying with great force. My body is thrown towards the International University as i shatter the glass when I fly into it. After recovering, I rush back to the apartment to see if my mom is OK.

I'm driving at night on El Camino along the side of the freeway in Tustin, while at the same time it feels like I'm in the middle of nowhere. I get pulled over by a cop who is on a bike and does not have sirens. He uses a white light to pull me over and asks for my license and registration. I have a shotgun in the passenger seat loaded with the fragrance Philosykos. I shoot the cop with it and take off. He comes back and chases me down. We engage in a gun fight, and the whole thing felt like something out of "No country for old men."

This was my first (and only thus far) lucid dream experience. It came shortly after I learned about lucid dreaming, and at a time when I was most interested and excited about it.

I was walking across a college campus past some girl sitting at one of those desks w/ a draped banner advertising a club.

I suddenly end up in my bathroom, and standing inside the shower facing the shower head.

Something triggers me to question if I am dreaming. I perform a reality check by holding my nose and trying to breathe. I conclude that I am dreaming and my vision suddenly turns from fuzzy to remarkably clear, vivid, and life like. I begin to question again if I am dreaming or in waking life due to the sudden clarity.

I decide to perform another reality check by looking into the foggy mirror. I see a somewhat distorted image of myself, confirming yet again that I am dreaming.

At this point I get too excited and start to wake up. I try touching the tiles in the shower to stay grounded but the lucid dream ends before I can do anything else.
