task of the month dreams
I become lucid walking down my driveway. I fly a little bit to the bottom, then remember that I wanted to do the TOTM: "Ask a DC where he or she is from." I'm at the bottom of the driveway now, and I think that I could go to the house to the left that I had visited recently in a dream. I walk to the house and knock on the door. I can see that the family is all sitting at a table and eating dinner together. (I think there are less kids than last time, but still a lot.) The whole area of the house here is like a screen-in porch, so I can see everything easily. The mother comes to the door, and she is less happy to see me than usual. I apologize for interrupting dinner and tell her I'll leave in a moment, but I was just wondering if she could tell me where they were from. She says, "A dinosaur." Her husband speaks up from behind her and says something about a pterodactyl. I thank them and leave. I want to do the Advanced TOTM, "Walk on the ceiling," so I decide to go to the houses past the cul-de-sac and do that, but I wake up.
I become lucid and remember the task, “Condense a color into a liquid, and drink it. Report the taste.” I look around for a good color to use. The walls are a deep red and I think about using that before I see a dark green Christmas ornament. [ATTACH=CONFIG]10114[/ATTACH] I pick it up and throw it on the ground, smashing it into pieces. I sit next to it and use my hands to further pulverize it (it’s not sharp at all) until it’s a fine dust. I turn to a DC and ask them to get me a cup. They walk away, but I decide not to wait. I turn to my other side and see a DC holding a small cup. I take it and put the ornament powder inside. I will it to become liquid and drink it. Some of it is still powdery, but there are liquid parts. It’s sickly sweet and I don’t enjoy it at all.

I'm walking around a house when I become aware that I'm dreaming. I remember the task, "Declare that clapping your hands always changes one fundamental rule of the world. Test it out until you have visible results." I give my declaration and begin clapping while continuing to walk. At first, nothing happens. Then, I notice that every time I move, a trail is left behind for a few seconds before disappearing. I continue clapping and find I can walk through objects with no resistance. I continue walking and walk into a bathroom and look into the mirror. Looking at my reflection, I begin losing lucidity as my appearance begins morphing into an increasingly frightening image.
5/20/18 I am lucid in the foyer of a house. I enter into the next room over where a DC is sitting at the computer. I ask them to sing me a song. They do and it sounds very familiar, although I don’t think it exists in real life. The lyrics are sort of complicated and I can’t remember any of them. I walk into the kitchen to ask another DC in the hopes that they’d sing something I could remember when I woke up. I ask two more DCs. The first sings in Spanish and the second in English, but I can’t remember any lyrics now that I’m awake. Then I remember the other basic ToTM, to eat chocolate cake. I don’t remember how I get it (I either summon it or it was immediately handed to me), but I soon have a plate of chocolate cake in my hands and begin to eat it. It is very moist, more so than waking life cake.
5/19/18 I become lucid in a house. I walk through the closed front door into the front yard. It is winter and frost is covering everything (it is almost summer here). I remember the task to make a flower into ice cream. I walk around looking for flowers before finding dandelions, in both the yellow and fluffy white varieties. I pick one of the fluffy ones and begin walking back to the house with the idea of using something in the kitchen. Then I decide I don’t want to walk that far (not to mention it would be pointless) so I instead begin to spin the flower while it’s still in an upright position so the blurred bit looks like a cone shape. It soon becomes a real ice cream cone with ice cream in it. I taste this “dandelion ice cream” and find it tastes very similar to mint, but has a slightly chalky aspect to it. Not sure what happens next, most likely I lose lucidity or the dream ends.
I am in my living room with a friend. I become lucid and decide to complete the ToTM "Ask your dream what would happen tomorrow in real life." I decide to use her as an embodiment of the dream and ask her, "what will happen tomorrow in real life?" She says something strange about tinfoil being put on someone's feet. (I will keep you guys posted if something like that actually happens...:chuckle:) I remember this is the last night of the competition, so I do the first thing I can think of that scores points, which is walking through a wall. I also remember super speed, which I do in circles around a room for a little while. Then a DC begins to talk to me. I keep myself focused by pushing my hand through a table, which I for some reason can't do on the first try, but then can on the second. The dream ends. I am on a Ferris wheel with someone else. I become lucid again and think I should do the ToTM again and maybe get better results. I can't remember her answer and I quickly lose lucidity. I am trying to infiltrate somewhere (???) but someone else who is trying to help is messing it up. I become lucid and decide to do my second task for the three-step task, teleporting. I try to teleport outside, but halfway through I decide to instead teleport to the next room over. I do and then walk through the wall to the outside to fly. I begin to fly, and then remember that I found the dream I was having before I became lucid interesting, so I turn around in midair and see one of the DCs that was a part of it. I ask her something and she tells me to go to a certain website. I turn around to fly away again, but I forget to stabilize while in midair and the lack of sensations causes me to wake up. 1 Non-Lucid: 1 DILD: 10 ToTM: 15 Walking through wall: 10 Super speed: 5 Interact with DC: 2 Push hand through solid object: 5 Second DILD: 5 Interact with DC: 2 Third DILD: 5 Teleport: 10 Second Three-Step Task: 10 Walking through wall in third dream: 10 Basic Flying: 5 Third Three-Step Task: 15 Interact with DC in third dream: 2 [B]Total: 112[/B]
I am walking down my driveway, lucid. I try to remember a task of the month. The only one I can remember is, "Make an inanimate object come to life." I look around for an object I could use and can't find anything. Then I see an old hat laying on the ground. It's lumpy and strange looking. I pick it up and throw it with a spin, willing it to come to life. It transforms into a bird, equally lumpy and strange looking. It runs around confusedly, squacking. I try to remember another task, but can't. Then I think I do, but it's wong and I waste the rest of the dream on it.
I wake up in the middle of the night from a dream and realize this is a good opportunity to induce a lucid dream. I check my phone quickly for the current ToTMs and find a couple that interest me. I decide to first do the task: "How many times can you fold a piece of paper before it doesn't work anymore... Or can you fold it endlessly?" I fall asleep and find myself in one of the rooms of my house. I am lucid and recall the task. Luckily, there is a piece of paper nearby which I pick up and hold in half. The paper is stiff and it is a little difficult. I fold it in half again two more times, counting as I do, and the paper continues to fold as normal, but once I do it after that, the paper is no longer stiff and is easy to bend. I look closer and realize it is no longer decreasing in size when I fold it in half, so I can continue to fold with no effect. I lose count of how many times I have folded, but I have my answer: I can fold it endlessly. Now the dream either ends or I lose lucidity because I can't remember anything after this.
I am in some kind of park walking down a walkway. It's night time and I can see other people walking in the woods. I suddenly realize I'm dreaming and recall the basic task, to wander through a museum. I teleport to the museum. It's inside someone's house and I'm in the basement. There's low light but I can see dozens of paintings on the walls. They're all abstract and I can't figure out what any of them are supposed to be. Some are just blobs of colors. I go to the stairs to go to the ground level and see an older woman. She tells me this is her museum. She says that it used to be her house, but she converted it. I go up to the second level and see more paintings. These all have white backgrounds with a single streak of one other color. The dream ends.

I'm in a house with tons of people. We're hiding from someone who is going to come in at any moment. I suddenly realize I'm dreaming. I try to think of what do do and remember that there's a ToTM that I want to complete, but I can't remember what it is. I walk around to try to jog my memory and suddenly I remember it's "ask a DC for a waking task of the month." I look around and walk to the nearest DC. I say, "If this was a dream, what task would you give me to do after I wake up?" He says, "I don't know, eat something or something." I walk away and remember that everyone in the house is hiding from someone. I look out the window and see a person with green skin walking towards the house. They come in and start talking to the people who are hiding. Then I wake up.

I'm walking around a strange area with three archways that each lead to a huge room with different weather depending on which arch you go through. I realize I'm dreaming and remember the ToTM "Ask a DC for a waking task of the month and try to complete it after waking". I look around and see several DCs. I approach one and tell them that this is a dream. They don't seem surprised. Then I explain to them the idea of the ToTM and tell them that they need to give me a waking task. They just look at me strangely. I don't think I'll make much progress with them, so I leave them and go to the next nearest DC. I repeat the process and they again don't seem surprised when I tell them it's a dream. When I ask them for a task they say "how about flying?" I explain to them that that isn't possible for me to fly in real life and ask for another task. They refuse. Then I wake up.
I'm in my kitchen and spontaneously become lucid. There's a DC with me who's being very loud and distracting. I try to remember my goals, but this DC is distracting me way too much. I suddenly think I remember a goal when I wake up. Now that I'm awake, I realize I didn't remember a goal at all, so I think about my goals so I can remember them in a dream, and I fall back asleep. I'm in the same kitchen and the same DC is there, but now I remember a ToTM - teleport to a random location. I spin to teleport, but the DC is still trying to distract me, and I only end up a few feet away. My lucidity level becomes very low and instead of getting rid of the DC, I just keep trying while they're distracting me. Then another two DCs enter and I'm even more distracted. I lose lucidity and soon later wake up.
