    1. Dream Journal: September 16th, 2016

      This was the first lucid dream I've had in ages, and the longest one I've ever had! I was really pleasantly surprised to have this experience without even trying last night

      When my dream started, I was watching a looping video of me and two guys posing for a picture on a wooden platform overlooking a cliff. One of the guys is frustrated with his hair and messes with it, which is looped in the video over and over. Suddenly, the looping stops and I enter the scene. Everybody leaves, and I call my mum to pick me up. She comes to get me with her car and we start driving down a typical suburban road. I was just idly watching the scenery go by, when it suddenly hit me that I was dreaming! As soon as I came to this realization I could feel the dream start slipping away, but I felt around the inside of the car to stabilise it and focused hard on staying in the dream. When I felt it was stable enough, I turned to my mum and excitedly told her I was dreaming. Remembering how some people had been able to see cool things by asking their subconscious to show them something amazing, I asked my mum to take us to the most amazing place imaginable. I then tried closing and opening my eyes in the hopes it would change the dream scene, but instead my mum just took the next right and sped the car over a chainlink fence and down steep hill towards a cliff. Luckily, at the last moment I was able to make her steer left, sending the car crashing into a rock and me flying into the branch of a gigantic tree about ten feet off the ground. As I looked around I noticed that in the branch was the nest of some humongous bird and decided not to stick around to meet its owner. I swung down to the base of the tree using a thinner branch, then waited for my mum to do the same. We were now up the hill from a little grassy beach at the bottom of the cliffs. We started walking down to the beach, but as we walked a round furry insect started flying in and out of my ear, biting me as it did so. After a bit of frustration I managed to shoo it away, and we continued walking down. Once we reached the beach, we found what seemed to be strange pit of blood-like mud with a live swordfish sitting in the middle. Instinctively, I put my hand in my pocket to find my phone so I could take a picture, but it seems it had fallen out during the crash. I begin to worry that I'll lose my awareness if I'm not careful, so I ask my mum not to let me forget that I'm dreaming. I then see what seems to be a resort built into the wall of the cliff, with large windows and glass doors. My mum and I go inside, where I find a friend of mine sitting by the window. I see that she has a phone and take it from her, willing her not to notice. I open the phone to find her camera app but end up in her gallery instead, where I find several grainy black and white pictures of me. My mum and I go outside again, but find that the swordfish I wanted to photograph has now disappeared. For some reason my mum then jumps into the bloody mud pit, which starts swallow her up like quicksand. She asks me if I'm really sure this is a dream, so I point out to her the strangeness of our current situation and the fact that only minutes ago she had willingly tried to drive our car off of a cliff. The mud starts covering her head, so I pull her out. She opens her mouth and spits out a mouthful of what appears to be tea, and I see that inside of her mouth she now has a teabag for a tongue. She stops moving, and a man comes out of the resort and tells me that he thinks she's most likely dead. I don't really care, however, as I know she's just a dream character. I then wake up.

      My third lucid dream.

      Waking Life
      Non-Lucid Dream
      Lucid Dream

      I was in a room filled with tables. All the tables had jigsaw puzzles on them. I look under a table and see a photograph album I'd been looking for in real life. In it was a photograph of me, my sister, and her fiend. I don't remember seeing any other photographs. I put the book down and my sister comes in and starts getting upset with me. I leave the room and watch a television programme with my mum. It's a documentary about Greece. My mum says she thinks Greece is beautiful. For some reason I disagree with her, even though I believe it is quite beautiful in real life.
      The television then switches to a programme based off of Hercules. Hercules is fighting a thuggish biker. After the fight they both go to the bathroom and then immediately walk out again. The thuggish biker then challenges Hercules to another fight but Hercules refuses.
      The dream then changes to me as a cartoon character in a school. I am a new student there, so I don't know anybody in the school. A boy befriends me, and we start talking about mobile phones. A reporter for the school newspaper named Pauline overhears our conversation. She asks me what I think of mobile phones and I say the cases are nice. She gleefully writes this down in a notepad, presumably for the school newspaper. Later, she repeats the same question to me. I say that the numeral keys are nice. She writes this down as well.
      My new friend starts getting agitated that I keep talking to her. Later on, she repeats the same question to me for the third time. I tell her I think the screens are important. Once again, she writes my answer in her notepad. My friend remains agitated. She comes over to me later, and I answer her question before she asks it. I say that I think touch screens are preferred to physical buttons by the majority of people. She claims opinions on this matter are too subjective, shakes her head and walks away.
      My friend starts talking to me again. He asks me if I named myself and I tell him no, my parents named me. Suddenly a large boulder crashes through the door. In front of it is my teacher, running away from it as fast as possible. She dives out of the way, and I realise the boulder is heading straight for me. My perspective changes to a view of me from the side. I see myself crouch down and stick my arm in front of me. Green energy emerges from my extended arm, striking the boulder and shrinking it down to the size of a pebble. I then stand upright and crush the ex-boulder with my foot. The whole class stares at me.
      Suddenly the scene changes. I see myself and all of the students from my class being transported in a large cage pulled by a lorry. All of the students glare at me. I hear the driver say "Hmm... I wonder where the field is.".


      I also have a dream fragment from the same night. I remember suddenly becoming suspicious that I was dreaming. I ask myself if I'm dreaming and do the basic reality checks. I examine my hands. My left hand has no fingers. My right hand looks normal. I plug my nose and try to breathe, and discover that I can. I am now fully aware I am dreaming. The excitement is too much for me, however, and I wake up.

      My second lucid. (very short)

      Waking Life
      Non-Lucid Dream
      Lucid Dream

      I am in a tropical-themed restaurant in Cornwall at night. With me are my grandparents on my mums side, my mum, and my sister. I try to make conversation, but everything I say is contradicted. After a few minutes I get sick of it and I run off into a stone barn. Inside it is musty and damp. There is an indoor balcony type thing reached with a set of stairs. My aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents all from my dads side of the family come in with my sister.
      They all walk up to the balcony, but I stay behind. Suddenly a great big dog comes in and starts growling at me. I manage to avoid it by jumping up and grabbing on to the balcony, and it calms down. I let go and land safely. I go over to my sister, who is looking at a bookshelf. She mentions a book that she likes. We all leave the barn and run down a grassy hill to a stone farmhouse. I realise I am on my grandparents (on my fathers side) farm in Yorkshire. We run into the house. Most of my cousins (more than I have in real life) run into a bedroom, while my sister and I stay behind with everyone else. Everything in the room suddenly starts getting wrecked and I worry it'll be blamed on me. White light and sparks appear before my eyes. I turn to one of my cousins, a dark haired girl about my age, and ask her "Are we dreaming?". I look down at my hands. My left hand has odd fingers and my right has none at all
      . I realise that I am in fact dreaming. The girl and I get really excited, but the room continues breaking. The floors and walls are now falling apart. I reset the room, but forget I'm dreaming. I am back to when my cousins ran into a bedroom. My dark haired cousin is nowhere to be seen. My sister goes into a bathroom, but some guys try to get into it. I lean against the door to prevent them entering. After a few seconds they give up and walk off, grumbling. I decide to see what's going on in the bedroom my cousins went into. I enter, but they don't notice me. I overhear them say they hate me and want me to go back to Canada. This hurts me, so I leave the room and sit down in a chair. Two boys, both about 12, come out of the bedroom. They keep looking at me and speaking in hushed voices. One of them runs up and puts a white buzz cut wig on me when I'm not looking. I don't notice, and they start to snigger. I sit down on a rug and start to absentmindedly dig a hole in it with my finger. Suddenly one of my aunts notices the hole I'd dug and gets mad at me. I apologise, saying I didn't mean to. She tells me it's alright and that I wasn't in trouble, but says it's just another way for the lavender petals to get under the rug. She lifts up the rug and underneath it's piled with rose petals (not lavender, oddly enough). She sighs and starts methodically picking them up, one by one. The 12 year old boys start throwing rose petals on the spot she's picking them up but she yells at them to stop without turning around. She then asks me why I'm wearing a wig. I suddenly notice and take it off quickly. Underneath my hair is incredibly sweaty from being under the hot wig. I quickly run off to the bathroom, embarrassed, while the boys laugh at me. I start washing my face and hair with soap and water. It takes a while, but I eventually finish. I reach over for a towel, but the door opens and the boys see me with bubbles all over my hair and face. They start laughing again and I quickly close the door, red faced. I dry my face and hair. I then notice a laptop sitting on a bathroom shelf. I look at it. It has the old grey box layout and there's a message for me on it. I open the message. It's from my grandparents on my mothers side. The message says that a video of me with them on a roller coaster had gone viral on youtube. This confuses me as I don't remember going on any roller coasters with them. The video is attached in the message and I look at it. It shows me with stupid hair screaming incredibly high pitched. I become even more embarrassed and wake up.

      I've decided I'll only post interesting dreams on here, as filling this up with silly fragments would get annoying after a while.

      Waking Life
      Non Lucid Dream
      Lucid Dream

      I was getting a helicopter ride from a man around my town. I feel like I need to get back on the ground, and ask him if he could land somewhere, but he ignores me. We start flying over a forested area by the highway, and it suddenly switches to me driving the helicopter with my grandmother on my mums side in the passenger seat.
      Suddenly bullets come soaring past, and my grandmother and I fall out. I grab the helicopter door handle with my right hand and her hand with my left, but my grandmother suddenly says something in Latin and we both get shot. It immediately resets to us hanging out of the helicopter again, like a video game. I manage to pull us both back into the helicopter, and we sit back down.
      The gunfire has stopped now, and I can't find any source, so I fly us towards the school next to my house. We land in the field, where my grandfather greets us. My grandmother runs towards him and hugs him. They're both very stressed, but I discover I have the power to calm people down by touching their foreheads, so I use it on them. It works, and they immediately calm down.
      I notice a line of school children about my age standing against the chain link fence around the field by a forest. I discover when I touch their items, like backpacks and mobile phones, I can hear their thoughts about those items. I test it out on the different objects along the fence by the school children. None of them seem to notice me. I touch a girls Game Boy that she's playing a Mario game on, but I just hear the sound effects and music of the Mario game amplified in my head.
      I touch the girls head, and hear the Mario hitting mystery blocks with your head noise. She seems to be very focused on the game. I then use my calming powers on a girl next to her, but she just become stressed out. I use them on her again and she becomes calm. I switch her between calm and stressed over and over again until she asks me what I'm doing. I'm surprised that she noticed me, and can't come up with a good explanation.
      I wake up.

      I've been dream journaling for almost a month now, but I've only just decided to start posting them here. I'm hoping it'll help me to think of lucid dreaming a bit more in the day as well as the morning and the night.
      This was the dream that got me into lucid dreaming Sorry if it seems a bit silly.

      Waking Life
      Non Lucid Dream
      Lucid Dream

      I see myself surrounded by giant robots in the third person. They try to stomp on me, but I dodge them. I manage to jump between one of the robots legs, but another kicks me and I go flying into a robots stomach. I land inside a stomach compartment, my view changes to first person and the scene changes to the steampunk-esque engine room of a submarine.
      There is a shark person working on a computer. I get a radio message from a woman telling me to sabotage the engine room. I pick up a rock and throw it at a round computer monitor, but it just bounces off. The shark person notices me, and starts yelling at me. Some more shark people come in and start yelling at me with him. They then start arguing with each other, and I slip out of the engine room.
      I am in a submarine high school, and there are shark people students and human students everywhere. I go right from the engine room, pass a cafeteria, and go up a metal spiral staircase. At the top, I fall over next to stairs, and can't get up. My limbs feel impossibly heavy, as if they're being held down by huge weights, something that used to happen to me a lot in dreams but hasn't happened to me for a while now. I manage to pull myself up using the railings, and lean against them.
      Everyone is staring at me and I feel awkward. The railings suddenly collapse under me, and I fall down the stairs holding a piece of the railings. At the bottom, a strict old shark woman with white hair in a bun glares at me and gives me a lecture for breaking school property. After the lecture is over, I decide to go back to the engine room.
      On the way there, two girls come out of the cafeteria. One of them points to me and says to the other, "This is the handsome boy I mentioned.", and they both giggle. I say "Thanks, I am very handsome aren't I?" (I'm not actually this arrogant in real life, I don't know what was going on here), and they both giggle again. They walk away from me, and I keep heading back to the engine room. I stop outside its door, and suddenly
      realise I'm dreaming.
      I remember I'd heard about lucid dreaming before but never bothered about it. I decide to try flying to see if super powers and things actually work. I immediately fly up, my arms sticking out ahead of me like superman, and the ceiling shoots up above me so that I can properly fly around the room.
      Before I can properly try out my new found flying abilities, I get a really uncomfortable feeling, like something is watching me and has become angry at me for breaking the rules. I suddenly get a vision of the two girls from the cafeteria covered in blood with red eyes staring at me. I decide that I should probably leave the dream now. I try to slap myself, but my arm slows down and my arm feels held back like before at the stairs, so I know it's useless. I'm starting to feel quite anxious now, so I close my eyes and will myself to wake up. I float through a kind of black void for a second, and then
      I wake up.
      I log onto the computer and research lucid dreaming, and I come across this site. I make an account, and the rest is history, albeit rather short history.

      Thanks for reading!
