lucid

I was lucid. I was in some random park outside in the daytime. I immediately thought of some of the dream goals I had. One of them was to create a Katamari Damacy dream, and I decided to try it. I ran over the woodchips to some random pieces of the playground. I grabbed a piece out of the ground and started rolling it around. I went over some of the smaller pieces and they collected. It was starting to get big when all of the sudden the pieces, to my disappointment, stopped sticking together. I tried pushing them back together but they wouldn't merge.

At some point I had given up and decided to try something else. I think I flew away at one point. I then decided I should try to make an epic battle, and I tried to throw fireballs at some random guy. Unfortunately, it failed, and my dream faded.

Can't remember what I was dreaming about, but I know that I woke up from a dream into another dream. At some point I became lucid and was flying around.

I was in a dream, and I randomly became lucid. I was standing in the middle of a random open area with a few trees. It was snowy, and the sky was grey. I scream "CLAIRTY!" a few times and rubbed and clapped my hands together. When I looked around, I was just stunned. Everything seemed so real and vivid. I touched a few objects, and it felt so strangely sensual.

I had totally forgotten about any dream goals I had, but I was trying to remember them. I decided I should start by getting away from this area. I tried to jump up and fly but it didn't work. Then I spotted a giant fallen over tree. I decided I could use it as a broomstick like in Harry Potter. I hopped on to it, and then I was flying on a giant dead tree.

Steering the thing was quite a task. It was really hard to balance on it. Eventually my dream faded.

I was at summer camp like I used to go to when I was younger. We were lined up against the wall of that gym and the counsellors were doing something. We were all wearing the orange uniform shirt and waiting for something to happen. I looked around and saw ZA and JU among all the orange shirts. I was really confused as I thought they were too old to go to camp by now. I wanted to go talk to JU but something was holding me back.

Suddenly I turned around, and this gorgeous guy was standing in front of me and smiling down at me. He had tanned skin (really tanned, the only thing I objected) and brown hair that swooped over his brown eyes. He randomly took hold of my hand, and I went right along with it.

Then we were randomly in some forest area on some sort of trail. We were climbing a huge wooden staircase that went up this cliff. The random guy was still with me the whole way. At some point I started making out with him, and he grabbed me and carried me up the stairs. Then the dream ended.

I was in a dream at some random place. Can't remember much but it seemed pretty boring, I think I was at an office building or something.

Somehow it clued in that I was dreaming, and then I was lucid. I was trying to get into another dream inside the dream for some reason, but it wasn't working very well. I tried to will my way into it, and it started to work. But my world was a bunch of blocks, just like in MC. I wanted it to change so that it was normal, and that seemed to throw the dream off.

For a while I struggled with getting into a place that I wanted to be in. I tried flying, rubbing my hands, spinning around, a variety of things, and kept flipping between this dream inside a dream and the outer dream which tended to be a FA of me in my bed. I kept believing that the FA was not a dream, so I kept trying to get into the inner dream. Then it ended.

I was having a violin lesson. I was with my teacher and my mother. We walked into my teacher's house and looked around; just about all the empty space was covered in giant racks of food. There was absolutely every type of junk food you could name; one rack had giant jugs of juice and pop, with every color and flavor possible. The other rack had the most cookies and chips I'd ever seen on one shelf before.

I was waiting for my turn since the people before me were still there. There was a big green leather couch, so I jumped on it and lay down. Then I fell asleep... into another dream... and I was lucid. I stood up in the same place, but this time I thought I was sleeping at my violin teacher's house. I pinched m y nose to check and then turned back to all the food.

I took a lot of chips and whatnot, and then started to do other things. There was some goal I had at first, but I quickly forgot. I ended up going through her wall onto her balcony. Her balcony had no barriers, it was just a slab of concrete stuck to the side of her building. I sat down cross-legged, and wondered if I could will myself downward. I did, and it worked; the concrete slab slowly started descending. But then I quickly changed my mind, and willed back up again. At first it wouldn't respond, but this it slowed down and started going up again.

I stared up into the dark night sky now. I wanted to go to outer space and see what was there. I willed the block to move faster, and I felt myself elevating high into the sky at a faster rate.

I reached the sky, saw some colors, and then the dream shot me back into my first dream. I was now in some hallway, running back to the teacher's apartment. I wasn't sure if I was still dreaming, even though I pinched my nose and could breathe through it. I ran through her small hallway with a bowl of ice cream. Seeing some other random guy's bowl of ice cream, I thought I might still be dreaming, so I grabbed a spoonful of chocolate sauce off the top of his ice cream. I then jumped onto the same couch and just started eating ice cream, nervous that my teacher might notice I was gone.

I was no longer lucid, but just enjoying my ice cream. My teacher questioned where I had been, but was quick to forget about it. Next thing I knew I was turned around, looking at the rack as my teacher pulled out a massive bag of oreos. I was excited now, though I had guilt that I was eating way too much junk. Then the dream ended.

At first I had a FA. I was in my bed, but KR and CH were there. We seemed to be having a sleepover or something. My phone was on my nighttable, and it started vibrating. It was CH. I wanted to text something back, but I kept pressing the wrong buttons.

I decided to just go back to sleep. And as I did, I woke up in another dream, but I was lucid.

I think I started in some building. I remember escaping the room by going through the window. When I did so I felt a sort of plugging in my ears like a lot of people describe. As I exited I looked around; the neighborhood was indeed my neighborhood, but to the west it was more like the countryside, with a side and lots of spare land.

I did something I had always wanted to do. It was currently daytime, bright and sunny. I waved my hand in front of my in a quick motion, and willed the sky to be a purply-pink color. I watched as it gradually changed; I could see the faint outline of the moon among a sea of dark blue-purple, and I willed to to be brighter, and it then shone through so that I could even see the details on it. The sky was now a dark purple at the top, which gradually changed the pink as it reached down to meet the horizon, and then as it touched it turned a pink-ish brown. Next I colored the grass pink. A throw of my hand, and the pigment travelled like it was a colony of bugs, like some sort of disease. It was fascinating to watch.

Then I saw CH. I guess I started to lose control a bit here, because I kept telling her that she might be lucid too and that she MUST tell me if she has a LD when she wakes. What if we had just shared a dream? Realizing it was a dream, she started freaking out; she hated being in dreams, I guess. I grabbed her hand and jumped up towards the sky; I wanted her to fly and see the glory of LDs. She tried to pull me down, but up she went with me.

At this point I started blinking in the dream, and I woke up into my FA again (dream within a dream anybody? ). I thought that if I had just fallen asleep to LD, I could surely do it again. I was quick to resume sleeping in my dream and go into another LD.

I was still with CH now, but we were in a different place; it resembled the street I lived on, but it was absolutely shrouded by flora; it seemed almost like a rainforest. There was practically a tent of trees and leaves over the street. It was slightly dark because there was so little space for the light to get through. I didn't last too long here, but I tried flying with CH, but then I woke up into my FA again.

Back into my FA, I was no longer lucid. I was alone now, but I kept going on my phone and trying to text CH to see if she had had a LD. But I couldn't seem to navigate around the phone, and when I finally got to the text message option it told me I had received a message from her, sending me back to the start. Frustrated, I found it quickly again and tried to type out my question before there was another interruption, but I was having trouble typing too.

I was at my home, but it was way bigger in my living room. But apparently it was JI's home, when it wasn't. She was supposed to give me a lesson for some reason.

That guy that has a lesson after me was there playing a french horn. He was playing part of ECR I'm pretty sure, and I was about to ask him if that was it, but then I saw the music and it had a totally different title. I sat down with my instrument and then he blurted, "so, it's AL, the new violin player!" I laughed and said, "Damn right!" but I was confused as to how he knew my name or even what I did. I shrugged and guessed JI must have told him.

I was sitting in art class. It was rather dark in the room. I think we were presenting projects or something. I think I was sitting with JO and NI, and we seemed to be looking at some sort of table-top projector, sort of like in those sci-fi movies.

I think I woke up after this, but I had the intention of LDing. I slowly faded into sleep again.

It was odd. For the longest time I was caught in between, unsure if I was actually going to be successful. It was odd, because I was seeing darkness, and I tried to walk; I could feel my dream body flailing and moving, but yet at the same time I felt my real body. It was odd, trying to control the two at the same time, making sure my real body didn't move, but trying not to let go of the control of my dream body.

I eventually got my eyes open. Then I knew I could probably jump into the dream state.

I was wondering around some city at first. I wasn't totally in control of how the story went, but I knew I was dreaming. I think I was looking for someone or something, or maybe someone was after me.

There was a sturdy rectangular building made of concrete. It was pale yellow with green trim. I decided I should hide in there, so I went up to it and tried to break the glass. Even though I knew it was a dream, I was scared that the glass was going to hurt me. I punched it a few times and felt it wobble under my hand, and eventually hit it a bit harder. It shattered and I jumped in without harm.

Somehow i ended up in some apartment in the building. I was sitting on a couch and watching TV with a bunch of people from school. JO was beside me. I wanted to cuddle with him, and I turned to look at him. He put his head on my shoulder. I hugged him and nuzzled his hair.

Eventually I ended up in some large store, seemed like a mix between Home Depot and Wal-Mart, but there was a large candy dispensing area too. KR and KE were there. I think we were going to get some candy, and I was thinking about getting some blue gummies. It ended there.

At first I was at school. I was outside of my locker. IR and some others were there. It was the day before march break. For some reason I had some extremely large locker; it was like a room inside. I could step inside of it and there's still be so much excess space.

We could hear the people in the music room. They were studying music. There was something about LM's music in there. I mentioned to the people around me that she was my favorite artist.

Eventually I ended up running around the school, and that's when I became lucid. The school kept switching between my old and new school. The familiar north staircase was there, and I was running up its ugly green and yellow stairs. Eventually I reached the top and I was with KA and KR.

Me and KR started playfully fighting. We exchanging kicks and blows. Even though I knew I was dreaming, I was scared of feeling a blow from her.

Eventually I ran away. I think I tried to fly at first, but it wasn't working. I went up some stairs and launched myself horizontally, parallel (and very close to) the floor. I sped like a rocket. I then moved my arms and legs as if I were galloping like an animal, and I sped along the hallway. The hallway turned into the second floor where the office was. I also tried to throw fireballs at KR, but my attempts failed.

I ended up at some random grassy area afterwards. I was inside a giant bubble. I was playing some sort of game, and it had to do with eating the most. There was two other competitors. There were little jelly balls everywhere, almost like tapioca, and some random large gummies. I could see a scoreboard.

I started pulling in the giant gummies. I remember distinctly a giant red gummy horse. It was strange; its anatomy was perfect. I started gnawing on its shoulder till I ate it completely. I then finished off with the little tapioca balls. In the end I somehow won this "competition".

---

Some fragment of me playing some video game... it was really old and pixelly, RTS style. It was a desert setting; I was fighting against pterodactyls and giant bugs or something.

I was out on some random residential street. It was nighttime it seemed. Suddenly a large squad of police was there, roaming around the neighborhood. Apparently someone around there had been smoking crack or something (don't ask O.o), and they were searching for the person. They had multiple brown and black hounds that were sniffing up the ground and barking. There were also some policemen in these weird netted suits. I could smell this "crack"; there was a slight burned scent in the air.

Eventually I got away from this. There was something about some building and KR and some others. The last I remember was I was in some room with lots of food. I was lucid. I knew I was dreaming, but I didn't take that much notice or control over it. I remember thinking something about how I was dreaming and i could do anything, and that meant eating off of this random table of sweets. I particularly remember sipping from a mug of hot chocolate, but can't remember much else other than that.

I was at school in the strings room. We were packing up our instruments to go to something. My instrument needed a truck, so we packed it up and loaded it into the truck. I was then wandering around the room, bored. I think VE and some others were there. I decided I wanted to try a viola or violin since the teacher wasn't there. I randomly picked out a violin and started to tune it. I started on the E string, but then RE was there and she turned on the tuner, and I went back to the A, which was extremely flat. As I was adjusting the pegs Mrs. B. walked in and told me that I shouldn't be touching the violins since I didn't know how to handle one. I muttered a "sorry" and put it away.

Then I was in the middle of nowhere, some random residential street, with the truck with our instruments. It was nighttime it seemed; everything had a dark blue tint to it. I watched them unload the instruments. I was wondering why they were doing it here, in the middle of a random street.

Then I was at McDonalds. I really wanted a cheeseburger for some reason. I ordered just that, and contemplated ordering fries, but decided against it. Then I turned around, and found a shitload of food on the counter. There was a giant bowl of fries, a few cheeseburgers, a drink, and some other random things. I wasn't sure who they were for, but I started eating it anyways. I didn't understand how I had gotten so much food for so little money.

Then I was in the car with my mother, GU, and VI. VI was sitting in the very back for some reason. Apparently GU wanted to surprise her with something, or so he told me mother, who was also in front of me. My mom asked how that would work since she was sitting right behind them. We drove down some random street, and then it ended.

I know for sure that I was lucid at some point; I remember thinking that I knew it was a dream, but I can't remember where or when.

I was at some sort of camp thing. We had to set up tents on this lake. The lake had a rocky bottom and lots of water fowl. We were walking along the edge of it, trying to get to the end to set up the tents.

Something happened, and we ended up having to cross the lake yet again. But this time, there were a bunch of dead birds. I was in the lead, and I shouted to the back that the water fowl was dead and was causing the water level to rise. There was barely and rock, and we were walking in the water, clinging to the posts and trees by the shore so that we wouldn't fall in. I kept trying to tell everyone how high the shore was, but no one seemed to listen.

---

I was at home. I had to quickly make dinner since we had to leave soon. My mom was there too. She had made spaghetti the night before. I quickly piled some into my bowl along with some cheese. Then I spread out some apples and a few other dishes. I watched the spaghetti explode in the microwave, and was worried that the bowl would shatter too. Luckily it didn't; it just came out bubbling and steaming like mad. I quickly ate the spaghetti and then realized that there was fruit to be eaten too.

---

I had the most wasteful LD ever. I was in a room, seemingly a changeroom, with a booth that seemed like a restaurant booth. I decided to go to sleep on it. Then I felt myself separating from my body. I floated up and let myself rise as much as I could, until my head bumped against the ceiling (that hurts a hell of a lot more than you would think O.o). But, my throat was parched to the point it hurt, so I swallowed, and that sent me spiraling back to reality (!@$%#!*&@%^#!%^%# &!^# ^!#$^ &#!$ ).

---

Had some other dream, can't remember it at the moment... will edit if it comes back to me.

At first I was on the computer, chatting with Stone or something. My mom had seen it and apparently asked him who he was. He said that he was someone from WC3. I was scared that she would get angry. When she asked me about it, I just sort of evaded the question.

Then I was at a bus stop at at intersection. I was watching the lights change. Somehow it occurred to me that I was dreaming.

I wanted to change the scene, so I jumped up and span around. The scene whipped around me, and I was at RA field. I had just realized what I had done, and wanted to change it again. I was feeling adventurous, so I decided to try to change it to an arctic scene, among the glaciers. Stupidly, I closed my eyes to try to change it. I could actually feel the dream slipping; I knew if I opened my eyes I would wake. I kept them close and conjured the scene again in my head. I was on the hill now.

I span around trying to imagine this scene in front of me, but it wouldn't change. I screamed, demanding it to appear, but it would not do. I then decided that maybe traveling to it would make it appear.

I had gotten on the hill from RA field to the park. I jumped down it and straightened myself out. At first I just fell, but near the ground I urged myself to fly. And I did, floating up and above the land beneath me.

I was getting irritated now. I sort of jumped a little and gave myself a boost; the next thing I knew, I was speeding fast across the sky. Ahead of me were some houses covered in snow. Closer, I thought, but I guess I need to go more north. I turned around and saw my mother flying behind me I thought that I would have been going too fast for her. I was really irritated at her for some reason; she seemed like the reason I couldn't get to these glaciers. I then shot some fire at her (for once, successfully), and then gave myself another boost forward.

I passed over yet another set of houses covered in snow before the dream faded on me.

---

At first I was looking at all these pictures of art, seemingly from DA, online. If i pressed certain buttons each one would come alive. I was fiddling with this for a while.

Then I was in some WC3 game. It was a spiral grassy map, as I could see from above. When I zoomed in, I became me.

I ran around the plane for a bit. The point of the game was to make card decks, and then duel with them. I started making a deck. I had a deck with a lot of wolf summons, and a lot of buffs for them. The game automatically made the cards into random elemental categories. Each deck could only have 3 categories. At the end I browsed through the cards.

Upon entering another dream, I was playing the same game, but this time it was more of a duel style. You started off dueling one person, and when you beat them you would automatically join in another duel as your own force. All of the battles happened at the same time.

I had picked some random deck that I somehow knew was good. At first they were going to play Speed with them, but then they took the duel game.

Some of my units were shades with some really strong attack that caused them to multiply when hit or something. As I kept getting gold, I upgraded all the stats that I could. They were melee, so I took a ranged upgrade and quickly dominated the game.

As this game ended, I was back at another one. I had forgotten which deck I had chosen last time, and was browsing the wolf one I had made. I knew it was pointless unless it was a PvP game, so I looked back at the others and tried to find the previous one. Then the dream ended.

I was at a gas station. It was a bright and sunny day. I was in an industrial area; lots of grey buildings, and a busy highway to one side.

I was looking off at the highway and thinking something about Stone. Then I saw a truck that said "i eat moar nao". I somehow knew that the eating had to do with something weird that you wouldn't eat, something electronic. Then I called Stone and told him that I saw his truck.

Then I was just standing there, thinking. I was contemplating shared dreaming. There must be a way, I thought, there's no way that it could be coincidence between so many people on the forums. What if we could really ascend to one plane while dreaming? There must be some way.

Then it suddenly occurred to me that I was dreaming. I did a quick nose pinch RC. I decided I should try to fly away and do something else. I think I jumped from something, but just fell down. I looked up and tried to imagine shooting myself up towards the sky. Then, (stupidly,) I closed my eyes, almost like a blink. And then I was awake (!@$%*&^!).

---

There was some fragment of being in a building... some kind of game or something, with lots of people.

---

A vague memory of something having to do with food.

Notes:
- first lucid in quite a while... I kind of lost it. Been having trouble sleeping lately, and the only reason I even have a chance at this now is because it's the holidays... I'm really hoping I can maintain this once the holidays are over. And I'm hoping it won't take me another year to get regular LDs again.

My first dream was lucid, but I don't remember what happened. It faded right when I got lucid, but I DEILDed into a new one.

I was sort of detached from the dream, more like watching a screen than being in it. I tried to visualize stuff so that I would be more immersed in it. I wanted to try to share dreams with AN and make him lucid. I started yelling his name and yelling to get lucid. I then tried to visualize myself going through a door and expecting to find his dreams in there, but it wasn't really working. I wasn't really in the dream, more just like visualizing it and pretending I was there. At one point I was in the dream I think, but I was losing control and starting to do other things.

---

I was at the ranch again. I was in the corral with ME, KR, some of KR's apparent friends, KI, DE, and some other random staff. They were closing up for the day or something. KI had just come to ride WO. I said hi to her in a shy manner, and she ignored me. Usually she talks to me, I thought. She was the type of person that would ask me why I hadn't been there since the winter last year. But she remained silent.

KR then gave me a piggyback ride and we ran around the muddy corral like that. She was wearing her faded blue skinny jeans and her converse sneakers and glasses. Eventually I hopped off.

I spent some time running around the pens for one reason or another, trying to avoid something. I think KA was there at one point too. Eventually I returned to the corral.

In the corral there was this white horse that was saddled up. I knew somehow that it wasn't meant to be ridden at all, but the corral was empty, so I took it quietly through the barn to the entrance. I then mounted and urged it into a gentle lope. It didn't want to lope much, and wouldn't go faster when I squeezed it. It was peaceful and enjoyable still. I only rode up the driveway. I saw a bunch of stores when I looked past it. I decided it wasn't a good idea to go further, and rode the horse back to the barn. I dismounted and took it through the barn again. I was scared that there was someone on the other side. When I got there I think ME and DE were there; I tried to go and pretended not to take notice of them. They didn't say anything, and I was quite grateful for that. The dream then ended.

I was at home. Something caused me to go into my living room of my apartment. My mom was there. She told me to look outside; she was really scared. Outside there was a wolf and a cat. They were looking at us and following my cats along the giant window. For some reason this scared the shit out of me; I could feel the wolf about to just break through the glass and kill me or something. The dream ended somewhere there.

---

Had a FA. I woke up and started writing down key words of my dream onto a piece of paper. I wrote the words "rejection, cat, dog" on it with my pencil, like I usually do. I then started to get dressed. I remember putting my grey and pink socks on. I know I did some other distinct thing too, but I can't remember.

---

In the next dream I became lucid at one point, I'm sure. I was going down some water slides. There was sort of a hint in my mind that I was dreaming, and that nothing could hurt me, though I didn't have enough control to really take over. I was going down these water slides that had sharp panels. I went down them knowing it was a dream and that they couldn't hurt me if I didn't expect them to. It was really quite fun. Eventually the slides turned into highways, and the dream started to change.

Eventually I ended up at some store or bus station with my mom. We were waiting for a bus and commenting on how long it took. When it finally arrived we said something about all the people unloading. The dream ended somewhere there.
