With some friends in a pizza restaurant (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was with some friends in a pizza store. I knew I've been there before as I knew the place. This pizzeria had two floors and it was pretty big. I do not remember music playing. The place looked very Italian. I was holding something in my hand. Can't recall what it was exactly, but I knew that what I had in my hand, it was something that one of my friends usually had. I felt in the dream that I have the rights to have it because I was the first in line.
When other friend came to the pizza store (made up friend) grabbed from me what I was holding in my hand and claimed it as hers. It was a weird sensation. Something else happened. I think we had pizza together and something else, but can't recall.

Cheating in a game without knowing (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in a coffee shop with a made up friend. Somehow we were talking about a online game I play (same game where I am game operator) We were checking our accounts when I realized I had two accounts in the same world. I knew that was against the rules and I felt very bad about it. I knew that I was going to be detected, banned and fired from the team of game operators for being a cheater. I could not explain why I had two accounts in the same world if I knew it was against the rules. I know I'm a very clean player and I would never cheat.
This friend was explaining to me he had a new account and he was located next to one of my cities. The game looked different. It had the graphics from other game I knew. I was surprised about my two accounts, because in fact, I do not play in that specific world. I could see cities owned by me, from both accounts and the city of my friend. I think my wife was there too... I felt confused and bad overall during this dream.

Bees at the park (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was walking with my wife and we had to go through a park. The park was wide and full of people. I could see daylight. It was very sunny and warm. There was a fountain in the middle with kids playing around. The fountain was square and I think it had two levels.
I could see bees all around and I felt uncomfortable. I don't like bees. My wife said, "There are bees." I told her I wanted to turn around but she told me we had no other option but going through the park. She told me to not panic that they won't hurt me. I start walking when suddenly I see a bee in front of me. I flinch and walk backwards and hit a plant were a lot of bees came out. I could feel and hear the beers flying around my ears. I woke up.

Alone in the Mountain (MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was with some friends, I think at college (I'm not in college) They were all made up friends. I've been in this place before. I can't recall well this place. I knew I dreamed more before here but can't recall. I was talking with my friends and walking around.
We were going to have a party somewhere in the country. We appeared in the country, on a mountain. The sky was cloudy and it was afternoon. We had fun, we did not that much but I felt happy. It was night and a big group of friends announced they were about to leave and disappeared. Despite all the rarities of my dreams here and before at the college and I did not become lucid yet. I performed no reality checks.
I was alone with one friend. My friend announced he had to leave and he said, "I will summon a car" I instantly became lucid and the vividness of the dream increased dramatically. I could see the starts filling the sky, I could hear the noises from the insects and even feel the wind in my face. My friend was next to the road and suddenly, a white car appeared. The light beams of the car were on. It was a white rusty car. It was one of this old school large (very large) cars. My friend jumped inside, smiling and said, "Bye!!!" The car started moving and I said, "Oh yeah?" I started to smile and I walk towards the road blocking the way. When the car approaches me I said out loud, "STOP!!" My hand was open and facing the car. The car avoids me and keeps going until it disappears. I concentrated in summoning another car for but I fail as well. I think, "So, that's what is going on, huh? This is my freaking dream, so screw the car, I just fly home." I jump once, then I jump a second time (higher) then I jump a third time even higher doing a somersault and start flying. Usually this technique works very well for me. I perform three jumps ending in a somersault and I start flying. I was not flying very high, let's say around 30 feet high. I was following the path of the road. I saw several people running and biking. This reinforced my lucidity (it was late night in the middle of nowhere... how come there was people biking and running) I remember my task of the month. "Give a flower to someone." So I planned in landing, summoning a flower in my hand and blocking the way to stop a runner or a bike. I started to decrease height to land, when everything become blurry and starts to fade. I tried to spin to recover my dream, but the image of my room became vivid and more vivid until I came back to waking. I performed a reality check to make sure I was in waking life. Everything was normal so I looked at my watch. 08:10 am. I had to wake up at 08:15 am. I usually wake up before my clock does wake me up, so my inner alarm noticed me it was time to wake up. Darn... so close!!!

Handling flowers to entities and jumping over the pit after mocking people (MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had a false awakening. I always do RC when I wake up does not matter where, when or how. I was in my bed and my hands looked blurry. The entire room looked blurry and I realized it was a dream I walked away from bed and started to explore. I was looking for something to read so I would reinforce my lucidity. At the same time, I would hold tighter to the dream without exhausting my lucidity. I went to the main door of my house and there was a poster on my door. I knew that I have no such thing as poster in my waking home so I tried to read it. I saw everything blurry so I got closer to try to read it. As I approached the door I was able to walk through it. The door opened itself so I exited my home. The exit was the same, the same stairs and everything was normal. It was night. While I was walking I remembered I had to give a flower to some one. A weird entity appears in front of me. It was as big as a regular cat, but it was pink. It had two wings and a female voice. The entity was female. I pulled a stick from nowhere and tried to turn it into a flower. I placed my hand on the stick and the entity appeared to be happy. She knew what I was doing. A few purple sprouts appeared on the stick. I wanted to do my job well done so I kept concentrating. These sprouts became bigger and bigger until they became something like lilies. However, in the dream I felt it was a type of flower that you can find in a cactus. The stick was not longer a stick but a bouquet full of purple flowers. I handed it to the pink entity and she got very happy.

I walked away. I was walking on the street and it was day. I wanted to perform another reality check to keep up with my lucidity. I looked at my left hand, my thumb was missing, I looked at my right hand, two fingers were missing. I also felt my phone vibrate in my shirt pocket, but my phone was in my pants pocket. I found it weird so pulled my phone And actually it was weird because my phone was in my desk and I have nothing in bed that vibrates. Nothing from walking life was near me except of my bed, covers, pillow and wife. I pulled my phone and I felt like staring at it to set what was going on. It was a phone I do not own and it was doing funny stuff. The vividness of the dream skyrocketed. Too many reality checks in a row and the detail grew. I could see everything very clear. They sky was very clear and blue. I could feel the wind in my face, hear the sound of the cars... everything. I felt very happy.
I saw suddenly a few skyscrapers. I remembered I had to sky dive from one of them to complete the whole lucid task. All the skyscrapers where in the other side of the road. I felt I was for a while in the dream and it was very vivid so I was not afraid of waking up. I took flight. This time I did not need to perform my typical three jumps to fly. I just floated and started to fly. When I had a considerable height and I was heading to the skyscraper, the wind started to blow hard. I could not move, I was paralyzed in the air. Slowly the wind was pushing me back. I held to a tree and the wind blew even harder. I could hold still until the wind stopped. Then I kept flying towards to the skyscraper until I reach the top. There was a parking lot on the very top of the building. The sound of the street was low. I was pretty high. I walked around the parking lot. The whole lot was surrounded by a metal fence (so people would not fall off) I was going to jump out but I found something funnier. I heard there was a lady in the lot so I wanted to freak her out. She was parked next to the edge of the building. I jumped over her car and started to mock her. I started to make noises, to jump on her car and laugh and her. She told me she was going to call the police. She pulled her cell phone and started to call. When she was done, I jumped over the edge of the building. She started to scream. I reached the ground very fast. It was fun!! There was a policeman coming towards me so I decided to bounce back to the top of the building. The police man was dressed like a S.W.A.T. but he was a regular policeman. However, I crashed in the ground. Did not hurt a bit, but the policeman grabbed me. I started to spin to teleport and go crazy as my tasks were accomplished. However, everything became dark. I knew I was about to wake up, so I kept spinning. I woke up

At the hospital. Abused women department (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was a short dream. Triggered after writing down my lucid. This one is fragmented.

I was observing a hospital. There were four women in line. Two of them had her breast with blood and injured. One of them was talking with a nurse and the fourth one had injuries on her legs. All women felt miserable but they were excusing their husbands. I did not observe more people in the hospital. I did not have any special feelings. This dream was very observational and I did not interacted with it. In addition, it was very short.

Olive Oil Store (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was working in my store. The layout of the store was different. I performed no reality checks, so no lucidity. The store was located in a different place and they opened a drive-thru. In real life, the store won't have a drive-thru because there is no road next to the store, is inside a mall, which mall is inside a park.

I explored the store and there was a new counter. I was thinking in the dream, "Well... we were short of staff and now with this new counter and drive-thru we will need even more staff." While I was thinking, a co-worked said, "Grab me one Beacon and (something else) Balsamic Vinegar" I said, "What?? We do not have such thing!" The coworker replies, "Yes we do. We got it two days ago, but you were off when it arrived! Go to the vinegars and you will find it there!" So I did. The bottles are different, but I found such bottle of vinegar.

In a hotel... on a hot day (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had a false awakening in a hotel. I usually perform RC when I wake up, but it seems I forgot to do it this time. I was thinking I had to write down my dreams and I was trying to recall them. My dream turned in third person and I saw myself lying in bed (in the hotel) tried to recall when I suddenly fall asleep. I find out that I started to dream. I knew that my dream body was in one dream and a second dream was about to start. I knew I had to transfer my dream body from dream #1 to dream #2. I was lying down in the bed (in the hotel) concentrating. I could not leave dream #1 so I opened my eyes for a second and closed it again. I realized I've lost both dreams. I decided to sit in bed.
The TV was showing "The Simpsons" My wife was next to me. It was a very hot day and the AC was not working. My wife had a water spray and sprayed herself with it. She claimed it was a hot day but she had to time to take a shower. In the TV, Homer Simpson was sweeping. He was outdoors in the country, crying and surrounded by typical Simpsons characters. Snake approached him. He wore his regular clothes and started to dance with Homer. After this I woke up I can't recall what happened next both on the TV and on the hotel. I had some difficulty recalling this dream, but I think I got it entirely.

Two Women (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I can remember there were two women in my dream. One of the woman was happy and the other one was upset. I think the upset woman wanted to learn something. She was trying to get a new skill. We all were in a store, it could be the Olive Oil store but I'm very unsure.

The second woman was trying to teach the first woman or tried to screw her up, can't recall properly. I had a false awakening and I wrote down my dream. I can't recall where was the false awakening. After it, I woke up for sure

I was not interacting in the dream, I was just observing it. I remember the store was a wide place, it was day and well illuminated. The walls had a clear painting and everything looked clean.

Homework at a hotel (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was at a hotel with my wife. The room was well illuminated. The bed was on the right and the TV on the left. At the end of the room there were two windows. The curtains were light brown and I could see sunlight behind them.
There was a wooden desk.

My wife was not enjoying the hotel and she just wanted to checkout. I was doing some kind of homework. It was like a "go back to school homework" I do not go to school so it had to be that. I wanted to finish it first.

We went to do the checkout and I appeared in a coffee house (inside the hotel.) It was crowded, full of people. The tables were round and small. I was at a table next to a corner. I left somewhere for a while. When I came back, my wife was not there anymore. My backpack, notebooks and more stuff was still left at that table. I wanted to finish that work I had to do.

My mom appeared and asked me what I was doing This could be a good clue for lucidity, as my mom is about 7000 miles from San Diego! I showed her my work and she told me that finally I decided to go back to school.

I remember I had a green big book and a small notebook (very similar to my dream journal, if not the same one) I think I did math exercises. At the end of the of the exercise, there was a small questionnaire asking how did you finished your work. It had several options. I can't recall all of them, but I remember the first one was, "You bough the solutions book and you copied them into the exercise." While I was doing this my dream faded and I woke up

Getting another job???? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm missing some pieces of this dream, but I can remember that I've found a new job. I did not understand why, I'm happy with my current jobs. I was in a store and I was signing some legal paperwork to get hired. I was very happy in this dream. The store appeared to be a car parts shop, but I can't recall. I remember I saw the back room and it was huge.

Getting a Red Honda Bike and getting it stolen (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

For some unknown reason. I bough a bike. It was big, red and shinny. I loved the bike. I felt I needed that bike to go to work. Probably my wife got her driver's license and she was driving our car. I was excited about my new bike. I never drove one before (I only rode bikes) and I had to go home for the first time with my bike.
The bike looked something like this:







I started riding it. I could hear the engine and feel the wind in my face. I felt proud of my bike. It was night, and I was tired so I went to sleep to a hotel. Something happened here, but I can't recall.

I have a False Awakening in the same hotel room. The first thing I though it was about my bike. I knew I had the keys with me but I wanted to make sure it was OK. I left the hotel. I started to ride my bike again. I've been riding for a while, I rode over country and on the freeway. I parked my bike in a mall. I was going to get some supplies for the bike and a helmet, for some unknown reason, I had no helmet. I spend a while in this mall, a few females wanted to ride the bike with me and I can remember I ate something in the mall, but once more, I grabbed my bike and left. I think I did not buy the helmet after all.

Night falls again and I stop in a small house in the middle of a forest. I did not feel like leaving my bike outside, I was worried some wild animals could damage it. Both the bike and I entered the wooden house. It was warm inside and it was almost empty.







Inside, there was a mattress and a small table. I lied down in the mattress and the bike was on my right. I fell asleep and False Awakened in the morning. I opened one eye and I saw proudly my bike next to me. The front wheel was touching my mattress.
I had another False Awakening. I think I was in a car repair workshop. I was worried if my bike was OK. I saw that my bike was a little damaged, but it had minor scratches. Everything looked OK. I left the workshop and rode it. I've been riding for a while until the dream vanishes.

I had a False Awakening in a small store. A couple of people entered the store and they had their face covered. I felt scared because I though they were going to pull out a gun and rob the store. I started to walk backwards slightly until they turned around and started to leave. I felt better as I saw the face of one of them. They were just covering their mouth and nose.

I suddenly realize that my bike was not there. When I fell asleep, I was holding the keys of the bike and the bike was parked next to me, inside the store. (The wooden house appeared to be a store) I started to feel worried. The bike was brand new and it was already stolen from me. I had another False Awakening. I was suddenly in a different room, still thinking about my stolen bike. I was planning to go out of the house and look if the bike was parked there, however, I felt that the bike was really stolen because I knew well where I saw the bike before it was gone I suddenly realized I was dreaming. I was not feeling good so I just started to push my eyes and close them thighs. I was trying to wake up myself. The image started to fade until I realized myself, "Why I am waking up? My bike is not stolen. I can summon it back." I decided to move away from bed. I performed a RC and looked at my hands. They looked fine... or at least if what I first thought

This might be because just before going again to bed, I read this:

So that could help. My subconscious mixed "my hands actually seems to be okay" and "RC's have a 100% fail rate to me"

Sorry Serenity, no hard feelings!!!! I kept lucid after all, but your statement mixed in my dream!

I looked a second time to my hands because I could swear they were blurry. I had all five fingers in my left hand, however, the Middle Finger was forked into two small fingers. On the right had I had some anomalies that I can't recall. I left the room and I realized that my house was in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by mountains. It was a wooden house and it looked very cool. The house had two floors and I was in the top floor, so I started going to the main floor. I pinched my nose to see if I was able to breath. I was able to breath, however, I did breath like if I had a bad bad cold with mucus. I cleared my nose and kept walking. My dream was clear, but I wanted to make it crystal clear. I remembered that in other lucids after performing several reality checks I could reach that point. I was about to leave the house when I looked around for books, to try to read. I see a shelve full of books so I grabbed one. The title looked blurry but I opened the book and try to read. Everything was blurry and I could not read. I looked away but did not reach the crystal clear dream, so I stared at the book to try to read something, hoping the text would do something funny and reach perfect clarity. Bad choice. I did not remember that staring at something in your dream can screw it. My dream started to fade. I was thinking, "No, No, No, Nooo!!! And I started to look around to try to recover stability. The dream faded completely and disappeared along with my lucidity

I have another False Awakening. I wake up in a room, similar to mine. Even I could see one of my cats sleeping in the pillow in the same position where she was before I fell asleep for real I grabbed my notebook and started to jot down my dream about the bikes. I could not write well but this time I performed no reality checks. I though I was about to fall asleep again, so I allowed myself to fall back. I think I had to beds and I was going to fall between them, but I did not care, somehow I know I was not going to get hurt. I started to perform a WILD and I could feel my body paralyzed and I saw some hipnagogic images (yes, in my own dream) until I felt asleep and woke up in my real room for real.

SGO II (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was at my computer. I entered in the game operator's site to handle users claims and concerns. There is a small list to choose the world you want to see those messages. You can only see one world (the world you are assigned as a Game Operator) I pulled the list and saw more worlds. I was excited because I found out I became a super game operator. I awoke

Ball Fights (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was with some friends at the park. We were talking about soccer. I have not seen this people in ages. They are thousands of miles away and I do not contact them anymore. I also met some people from college, from friens to people I did not talk with. I've even seen some bullies trying to bull some folks. This could make me lucid, it was clear I was in a dream but did not get it.
We bought a soccer ball. One of our friends was araid of getting hit and hurt by the ball, however, she was not afraid anymore and he was willing to play our game.
We were going to play a game were we would throw the ball, trying to hit someone. If the ball hits someone, that player is eliminated. If someone catches the ball in the air, the player who threw it is eliminated.
While we were playing, some other players got hit and eliminated. The bullies were targeting the easiests ones and gaining lots of points. One of the bullies (the tallest one) threw the ball. Now it was a small green ball, like a tenis ball, but it was bouncy.







I felt that the ball was going to get me. It approached very fast. I jumped to the ground, but the ball reached me. The ball hit my left ear, but I was able to grab it and eliminate the bully. I realized that I was not the target after all, the bully was targeting another guy, but I was just in the middle.
Some people (specially the people that always got bulled) thanked and cheered me. They were happy because the bully was eliminated.
I felt good and woke up

Ending my job and moving somewhere (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had various FA and I think I lost a couple of dreams, but I'm unsure.

I can remember that for some unknown reason i got fired from one of my jobs (if you followed my journal you know I work at a Olive Oil Store, well, this dream I got fired from my other job, a Spain Imported products retailer)
I did not feel bad at all, I somehow was OK with it. I was thinking I could use the extra money from the job but it was not strictly necessary. My boss did not gave me a strong reason of firing me.
My wife and Hanna (a co-worker from the Olive Oil Store) were together in our place. It was a different place. I think it was a studio were I lived in Chicago with my wife a few years ago.

We were moving to another place. I remember entering the apartment and seeing a big white carpet. There were two big suitcases at the end of the room.
The room looked like this (without the table)







All the furniture was gone. There was a small room with a few boxes. I asked my wife and she told me that those boxes were going to be left there, for the next tenant. I remember seeing several bottles. One of them was Marie Brizar







I had a feeling that a few really really old wine bottles I have at my parent's house were going to be left there and I complained. We were talking about the moving and my job where I got fired. I claimed it was not my fault, that I was doing my job well done. Hanna told me that it had to be my fault as I got fired and I arrived home without another (new) job. I claimed I had my Olive Oil store job and that I was fine. I woke up.
