1. I find myself in bed in the dark. I automatically go for a nose plug.. 'could I really be dreaming?'. I check twice to make sure and I'm lucid. I think of how awesome it is that it came so easily. I stand up from the bed, but everything is just a void; it's as though I'm wandering in darkness. I have a spatial sense, but no other senses are present. I have an easy time maintaining awareness here, and I decide to wait for the next dream to start. I stay for a few minutes and remain patient. I fell as though I'm standing, and see a small light colored rectangle begin to form then fade. I figure I must be at the end of a REM cycle, and riding it out, so I try to go to sleep in the dream while telling myself 'I'm in a lucid dream'. I close my eyes, lay down, and begin the mantra
2. I appear in a bedroom area and begin to explore. I notice a dresser standing close by my side.I quickly decide to fly through a wall and explore a bit outside the structure I'm in. I find myself in an outdoor area with an interesting green hue to the entire scene. There is a large screen encompassing the entire backyard. I begin flying toward the screen and bust through the first one. I then consider heading upward and make my way through the ceiling screen. I then get the sense that there is some ominous entity inside the structure. At first, I consider going even quicker through the screen. I then think to myself 'this is just my dream, I'm going to confront this nightmare and find out what it is. I lower myself back down, turn toward the house, and torpedo my body quickly back into the structure's first room. I make a quick right while doing this torpedo flight and enter the second interior room. I see a creepy dark figure standing in the center of the rectangular dim room. The figure is just over five feet tall with long black hair, at is slightly stooped over. This zombie-looking figure appears to be a female, and is facing away from me. I quickly torpedo at the figure, yet I do feel a bit creeped out by its presence. As I approach, I grab its shoulders, spin it around, and demand "Who are you? What do you represent". I see the figure's face: it is the distorted face of one of my co-workers, which quickly changes to a distorted blonde 50's looking female, then to another female. The character says to me "I'm your fear of silliness". I feel at the moment that I have a clear understanding of exactly what this character is trying to relay (although after a few hours of waking I thought of another possible interpretation). I turn back to where I came from, and return to my flight toward getting out of the backyard area. The dream begins to become a bit blurry and fuzzy as I enter the green-hue area. I start expanding my vision to try to stabilize, but the dream begins to fade. I get teleported back inside, yet the dream begins going to void. I recall my lucid dream count, and decide that I want to have another this night. I set my intention to have another one. I lay down to go to sleep and begin my mantra: "I'm in a lucid dream". My eyes open slightly, yet my awareness wavers, and lucidity drops a bit... Some co-workers are asking me to help out with some students. I'm aware at some level that I'm trying to begin at the start of the next REM cycle, and continue sleeping. They seem to find me sleeping unhelpful, and laugh a bit. I ignore it, return to my intention and wake up shortly after.
3. The dream yoga master leaves the room after having spoken negatively of the older lady's practice. She is a bit upset, but I kneel down by her side and try to comfort her. I put my hand on her back, and tell her not to worry about it. We both stand up, and begin to walk in silence to the next room. Once we enter, the room goes completely black. I'm here for a short moment, then it hits me I'm dreaming this. I'm in complete darkness, yet I stick out my hands and feel that the older female is still in this 'dream blindness' with me. I stay in this void-like state for a minute or two, anticipating a dream to begin. I simply hold awareness in this void. I then decide to go to sleep and try to begin a new dream. I begin feeling a physical body, yet it may have been a convincing FA which I missed.
