1. I was sitting in my desk in english class. Mr. Williams was teaching and everyone was sitting down in their desks as well listening without any distraction. "Alright guys, next thing we're going to do-" suddenly he was interrupted by the loud ringing of the announcement bell. "Attention all students, school is ending now and no one will need to come back for the rest of the day" a female voice said. Everyone instantly reacted with excitement and there was so many people talking at once that no dialogue was even audible to me. I turned around to Pat who was sitting behind me, "Yo this is dope as fuck dude, lets get the hell out of here" I said. "Hell yeah dude turn up" he said. Just then the bell to release everyone from school rang loudly. Everyone got out of their seats and left the classroom in a hurry. I did as well.
The hallways were hectic to say the least, with students walking in every direction, and as usual, the hallways were too narrow for the amount of students and a student traffic jam was created for a short amount of time. "Jesus dude I swear people don't know how to walk for shit here" I tell Pat. "Forreal, like stop walking slow as fuck and actually move" he said. After some time we made it out to the parking lot, but for some reason we didn't go to the student parking lot, we went to the faculty parking lot/ bus ramp. Immediately as we go outside I notice that it is raining fairly hard and there is a bit of thunder. The sky is dark and filled with deep gray clouds. I couldn't find my car so I decided that it'd be a great idea to just steal one of the buses and drive it home instead. I got on one of the buses and to my surprise it was completely empty. I started it up and waited for a few minutes to see if anyone would get on. My friends Dylan, Andrew, and Brittany all got on. "Aright I have no idea how to drive a bus, but lets do this guys" I told them.
I pulled out of the parking lot and onto OakRidge School Road. I come up to a student cross walk, and students are walking across the road. The car in front of me stops to let them pass, and as I brake to avoid hitting the car, the bus nearly hits it because of its shitty breaks. It took way too long for the bus to stop and by the time it stopped I was literally an inch away from the car in front of me. "What the fuck" I thought to myself. I became a little stressed out due to that because I have never been in an accident before, and I certainly didn't want to be in one now. After the students cross the crosswalk we continue on our way. Just then I hear Dylan, who wasn't on the bus previously, say from behind me, "Dude, we have to be back at school by 1:50 p.m." I stay silent thinking of how stupid that is. "What the hell, why did they even release us then? That's completely pointless" I reply. Dylan agrees with me.
Next thing I know I am driving the bus on the freeway and going extremely fast, and I am a little unnerved considering I have never driven a bus before. I get off of the freeway and onto the feeder. Seconds later I see Andrew walking in the grass on the side of the feeder.

Monday April 11th 2016

Was testing something on the computer, became lucid a bit late and then decided I wanted to just rest… but damn this computer was not mine, so just… keep on using it, much faster than real computers.

Anyway, got to hack onto the system of a random hotel and got myself a room in there, so went over to the place and wake up… damn.

Back to sleep.

Was outside a big building and not home… so hurried to get back home, but instead got lucid and went back to the hotel, my room was a bit messy so used dream control to fix it up and then teleported my husband to the room, yay! Was going to use it but then realized that if this was a random DC it would be considered cheating and instead just spoke with him, yep.

Back to sleep.

Checking the internet, became lucid while seeing a video about a secret organization and got bored… so just teleported to the place, destroyed it and thought that was enough to make it go away in the dream computer, was ever so pissed when I got back home flying and well… it was still there.

Back to sleep.

Don’t remember the full dream, but was walking around this park during the night, was lucid at the start and exploring the different species of plants that had been put in the park with Scan, but eventually lost lucidity and just drifted along the place.

Sunday April 10th 2016

Was taking some trash into the house when I realize that it is a bit too heavy to be a bag, so become lucid from that and then go outside. Don’t see much activity outside, which makes me wonder what is going on, generally there is a lot of people when it is daytime in my dreams but this time around there is nobody outside.

Start to search for someone and eventually find a little girl who is trying to climb a wall to go into her house, apparently there was some kind of problem with a pandemic and thus everyone is currently hiding for the most part during the day and going out only at night when the disease is incapable of transmitting among humans.

Why in the world the disease is like that? No idea, but that is just the way it is. Use scan to check further the problem with the disease, nothing realty that dangerous only a super flu that kills people but that already happen, so start to go around and devour as much of the virus as possible because was bored as hell.

Back to sleep.

Reading something online, become lucid while typing and then decide that I want to go outside but… yep, there is dream porn in the way. Which generally I don’t like but for whatever reason this time it is really compelling.

Start to read all about it and download the videos as if they were going to work in reality until a DC of my couple comes in and then hide them, then think about it and go all “Duh, dream porn is dumb” so get out of the house and then fly towards the mountains.

Go sit somewhere calm and then start to think about my recent attitude in dreams, basically I would never go ahead and read or download dream porn as long as I was lucid so no idea why that happened, not to mention the lack of motivation to do goals and then the fact I was not picking fights with just about anything that crossed my sight, got a bit depressed about it and just mopped around the forest I was in before waking up.

Back to sleep

Checking something on the garden, become lucid while squatting and then finally, teleport somewhere else. Because yeah it was boring being at the place I was at, end up in some kind of festival in another world.

The festival seems to have a bit of everything, including a small market at the outskirts of the place and at the center a lot of flashy games, most of them super high towers of doom AKA rollercoasters which I’m afraid of.

Tried going on one but just failed as it was too high for me, then went ahead and flew to the same height and went as fast as the rollercoaster, so basically I could do it while flying myself but taking a machine made it hard for me… yep made no sense at all.

Anyway, there were some kind of monsters playing around and killing people, which was not necessarily bad IMO but it was a bit annoying when they tried to kill me despite seeing their comrades being torn to shreds but whatever, woke up before taking many of the candies I wanted.

Back to sleep

Walking around a weird street, become lucid while walking and realize that this is still part of the weird park so go back to the games.

Some kind of thing with a lion’s head that moves in strange directions keeps following me around, to eat, to the fun and horror house, to small games.

Finally decide to get up a rollercoaster again and the thing is still there… I’m kind of pissed by now so don’t care much about the whole “fear” part and instead, because the thing keeps towering above my head just get angrier by the second.

Finally, before the thing finishes look up at the head of the thing, which then opens up its jaws and prepares to eat me; get disappointed and eat its head instead in a single chop, then toss it off the car because damn, what an annoying kind of monster!

Back to sleep.

Was following someone through a very narrow hallway, become lucid when I realize that pretty much every step I take makes me float and then just decide to burst through the place… when I can see again and the smoke of breaking through the hallway with a sonic boom dissipates, realize that apparently I was being led to a trap.

So, a lot of dead monsters are lying on the ground. Pick the bodies of some in order to check if they are still alive or not, but yeah… pretty much everyone is dead right now, so just go outside and see that people are finally coming into the place.

Did I kill too many? Oh well, go ahead and buy some random stuff at the market and enjoy the meals, not like it matters much.

Controversy around the place is everywhere due to the destroyed buildings and to the random corpses of weird creatures here and there, but people ultimately believe that it was all just part of the horror house show that was going to play that same day and leave it be. Just shake my head and go to enjoy a meal on top of a mountain from which I can see the people below, I guess some others will be killed apart from the guys bothering me but whatever.

Back to sleep

I was in this beautiful forest walking around, become lucid while exploring and find some trees that have a lot of fruits so go ahead and eat them.

Get down the tree, walk around, teleport to a few different places trying to find something interesting to do but rather just get bored and continue walking around.

Back to sleep.

Checking something about the class for the Monday, become lucid because silly pencil is a bit too heavy to be normal.

Once lucid go outside the room and finally think of something fun to do, so teleport to another world and while falling down take flight. Some people on the distance take notice of me and start shooting some kind of energy arrow so obviously make barriers and then shot them down with ice rain from the sky.

In fact, go ahead and fly above their city then shower it with the same ice lances of rain, which makes it look a weird dark\blood color, this is quite fun.

Teleport to another city and let a void bomb fall down, then just fly around the cities I encounter and either bomb them with fireballs or void bombs until there is nothing left.

When I’m done, some kind of tree creature attacks me from behind and pierces through my stomach, just stand there and start to absorb the creature onto my body; it tries to run away and let go of me but it keeps on being eaten alive.

Once the creature is dead, regenerate my clothes and move over to a random jungle in the planet to enjoy the semi fight I had before waking up for real.

#489 - DILD - 6:15AM


I wake from a dream where I am in a version of a break room at work, having a hard time getting water from a strange water cooler. I am going in to work late to day and feel a bit restless so I focus on some meditation and LD and fall back to sleep.

I am back in the break room but now we are watching something on a TV. Frank in laying in a bed and for some reason I think it would be appropriated to strip down to my underwear and lay next to him. The show is really confusing and I look over at everyone in the break room. I begin to feel self conscious so I get dressed. I have a hard time getting my clothes to cooperate and it makes me feel like this is really dream-like. As I finally pull my pants up, think that if I turn around and see everyone as disappeared, then this is a dream. I turn and sure enough everyone has vanished. I laugh a bit and walk out of the room fully lucid.

I enter my living room as if I had just walked out of my bed. I try to think what to do and I see a huge glass window on the North wall. I walk to it and blind summon a random item, then throw it at the glass. It breaks through, but the glass heals itself. I move closer and punch both fists through. The glass heals tight around my wrists and pull the glass to me. Instead of breaking it turns into a thick taffy-like substance. I free my hands and try punching again. This time it is as hard as stone and will not break. I throw several pieces of furniture at the glass but they all bounce off.

I decide to maybe go outside, but when I do everything is really unstable. I get on my hands and knees for a bit studying the porch, but eventually go back in the house. For whatever reason, things were way more stable. Suddenly I hear and alarm and find myself back in the bed. I think I have woke up and my wife is turning off her phone alarm. Shes stressing out about something and looking through a pile of junk. I realize this is not how our rooms looks, so I must still be dreaming. I say, "Babe its fine. We are still dreaming. I mean... This is a dream." My wife's dream character goes silent and frozen and I decide to walk out, but not without considering having a sex dream.

I wonder what to do and tell myself this must be why I don't lucid dream very often. I've run out of things to try! Maybe not... I really want to get outside and decide I need to make myself more powerful. I transform into a werewolf and run out the back door on all four feet. I begin singing random songs that I don't recall. I was quite at first, but I realize I have a powerful and amazing singing voice in this dream so I really belt it out. I climb up the side of my house to the roof then leap to the neighbors roof. I look for more places to leap to and see a huge city on a hill in the distance. I try to zoom fly to a spot on a tree, but it wont work. I leap off the house and run to the city still focusing on zoom flying. It works. My hands reach a wall of the city and I pull myself up.

Still singing, I climb up building and reaches the highest part of a steeple of old world looking building. I notice that I am surrounded in a thick fog as I swing around the steeple. I begin to sing a really sad love song and become impressed with the lyrics. I feel as though I am making them up on the fly and it actually make sense. Too bad I don't recall what it was. The fog begins to clear some and I see a Blue Angels plane suspended in the air close by and then down below not so far down now I see a beautiful courtyard with a fountain. I leap down to it, but end up in my living room.

I now switch genres and make dub-step sounds come out of my mouth. I find a full length mirror and dance crazily. I see that I now look like some greasy, grunge rock type guy and decide to go do something else. There is a baby crawling around on the rug on. I stop and say, "Ooohhh. Hi babies! Did your mommy put you done hear on the floor?"
The babie turns and looks me and says, "No." I wake up.

I was caught up in a conflict where my husbands' ex was yelling at me like a crazy person. We were having parenting issues. (In real life she was never a parent to my son. My husband & the other 2 men she had children with all have custody of their children.) Finally my husband came to my rescue..... In real life she still comes to my house all drunk & high & damages our vehicles & a pool we had. Our son is 22 yrs old now & this crazy woman even screams nasty things about him. He's an honor roll student & his grandparents made a trust for him & his other siblings to be used to college. Her mother also had added her too but was recently cut off because she was trying to abuse the trust.

Dream 2 was about my oldest son. He was selling pot & I stole a big bag of pot from him to teach him some kind of lesson & he got angry & I woke up.... This was all silly but I was just talking about him yesterday about him not paying off his deposit for his electric & we were thinking about taking our name off the account & letting him live in the dark before he defaults & we are stuck w/ our own cut off & a very high bill that we won't be able to afford.

I think I really need to get some much needed sleep. I feel like a zombie today. Last night we had a thunderstorm & my Meesha cat was not happy about the thunder at all. And then today I was going to take a nap & my daughter shows up & stays all day.. I'm grumpy & need some rest.

Dream
It's a nice warm day and I've decided to go down to a small beach situated between two large rocky-cliff headlands. It's pretty vague about what I do here, I think I went swimming but I can't remember. I remember going back onto the beach and eating some fast food, after finishing I find another bag of fast food from the last time I was here. It still has 2 burgers in it, one is in the packaging and the other is half-eaten, which I seemed to remember biting into and putting into the bag whenever I was here before. They're still fine to eat since I remembered that McDonalds' food never goes off, I consider eating it but decide to leave it until tomorrow when I come here again.

It's the next day and I'm back at the house, it feels like there's a few people that live here. I can't remember clearly but I think I was in my board shorts for some reason, and either me or this other person (who was a green goblin) suggested going to the beach for a swim. Hell yeh! The weather is absolutely dreadful, it's pouring down with rain outside and for some reason this is the best weather for swimming. We start heading out, just me and the goblin. We have a bag of something each, and I get the image of a little miniature castle that we each had.. As we're heading out we see the other residents and friends that live here. There was a bout 5 or more sitting around a rectangular table in a hallway. I strike up conversation with them and decide to invite them along out of courtesy, kind of doubting that they'd want to come in this weather. It might have been rude of me to do so, since I didn't ask the goblin if it'd be ok. I tell them that we'll be going on ahead and then walk off down some stairs. In my head at the time I felt like the goblin wasn't a goblin but instead a beautiful girl who might have wanted to be alone with me for some reason *cough*. But she became a goblin guy again later on.
As I head to the beach I peer out a window and see that the rain has let up and there's a bright sun shining through the clouds. Hmm I guess we won't be enjoying the rain :/

I've arrived at the beach, the goblin is 5 minutes behind me or something so I'm here alone. There's a dairy shop that's just opening up for the day, the store owner is a small old asian woman with short greying black hair and a scrunched up wrinkly face. The doors bang open as the wind catches them, I offer the lady a hand in locking them down so they don't move. I talk to her for a bit, probably about the weather. The conversation lulls and I turn to browse the merchandise, I think I woke up around this point.

That night was a fairly great start for the competition. Starting out with a lucid can't be bad, right? It may have forgotten about my goals because.... there was other interesting stuff but hey, it was a lucid!

The five symbols
This dream made me think all day about it because of some very interesting events in it.
I was standing in front of a wooden house facing the street and the town with my eyes being nearly closed. For some reason I was in a state of deep concentration. Suddenly a figure walked by that seems awfully familiar and the voice was bringing back memories as well. Through my half-closed eyes I could see that it is my Sensei (No, not the cool person on the forums here, just a random Sensei in a sense of master). He had disappeared from my dreams long ago and teached me some aspects of the dream world before. For some reason he had returned now and spoke words to me.
"Feel the way you chose, feel the weapon you chose". I couldn't really see anything but feel the presence of everything and it was quite detailed. It was a sword that I was holding above my head and I felt its shape with my other hand. More surprisingly I could feel the presence of four other persons standing next to me. Three males, one female. Obviously, they learned from the Sensei as well.
Now comes the part that made me think for so long and still does. At some point I could see five colorful symbols flying in the air in front of my inner eye. They kinda looked like flames.
I can remember the one in the middle the best. It was a circle with many rays around and the color was a red-pink. I can say for sure that there was a yellow,blue and green symbol and most likely a purple one as well. Sadly I hadn't have enough time to remember them as well as the first one.
What do they mean? What can I learn from them? There is a lot of research coming right for me!


What a weird school trip
It was a confusing situation. I was supposed to get that sheet of paper to fill it out but obviously it wasn't on that table which was full of sheets. I stood in the hall being orientationless until a teacher tells me to go to the office instead of the table with the friendly woman behind it. So I left the hall heading for the office.
Later on I sat in history lesson with a teacher that I had like four years ago the last time. It seemed there was a break for now as the teacher was just looking in his folders and the pupils talked with each other. This led to some very irritating conversation. A girl asked me "Do you remember when the teacher asked when this one event happened and you answered 'UH AHAHAHAH OH OH OH AH AH AH AHAHA OHOHO'?"
She was literally just making weird noises and I knew one thing for sure: I never gave that answer to anyone, anywhere at any time. I questioned the whole situation and it was very odd to me but it wasn't quite enough for a lucid yet.

Who build that lake here?
Now that was really odd. When I stepped out of my house I saw that someone had transformed all the neighbourhood and the streets into a lake. People were enjoying themselves on the beach and I needed a moment to process what I just witnessed. Slowly I walked towards the water, looked around for a bit and decided "Yep, that is a dream!"
Sadly I wasn't really focused on my actual goals because the environment offered to much fun already and to be honest one of the girls there fascinated me for some reason. As expected things went on very fast. Without a word we walked up a way, both got undressed without even caring a single bit if anyone could see us like this and laughed about it. On the other hand it would be practical to lie down and the hard, rocky path didn't look very promising to say the least. So we just broke into a strangers car and layed down to enjoy the time.

This won't get me many points but it was fun and that has a higher value for me personally.

non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

I'm accompanying Mulder & Scully to a retirement home, to investigate a phenomenon. The old people here don't die and have miraculous cures and they argue it's because of some beings from anoother dimension that cares for them.
As we are talking to people, one of the gentleman is accidentally electrocuted and we try to help him with CPR without success. But his friends are not worried at all. Soon he regains his colours and he is breathing and opening his eyes.
I then see what seems to be humanoid figures like shadows on the wall, all around us. The old ladies notice my surprise, they say they are real, they see them too. They are the supposed healers.
Later we visit a community of people, like a religious cult, not clear what they are but they like to be nude sometimes and at the same time live like very conservative religious people. They also claim to have the same visitors looking over them and keeping them young and healthy, which they see as angels.
As we're there, a new couple arrives, supposedly to be accepted in the community, but after their arrival, chaos ensues as they turn out to be attackers. They start shooting and making a mess, until they finally isolate and pursue a little boy who runs away. They chase him, I chase them. They shoot at me, they eventually run out of bullets and I catch them and we fight. I win.

11/3/16
Fragment: There was s show on CNN that everyone was complaining about being biased to the right wing.

Dream 1: I was on a space ship sort of thing with a whole bunch of other people. To either save ourselves or save the ship, most of us had to undergo a form of time travel which would wind up killing us in the process but keeping our souls alive. I was one who had to do this, and so was Bernie Sanders for some reason. We all filed into a small auditorium and sat in the rows of chairs, then lights started flashing and we could hear a humming and before too long our bodies starting to disintegrate around us. We zoomed through time to the future where all of our souls exited the room and saw the descendants of those before still working the space ship.

Dream 2: My dad asked me to make cups of tea for him and my stepmum. I asked him what he wanted and he said half black, half green with a splash of lemon cordial. I obliged, but while I was doing so I could hear my brother telling my dad about how I was drinking all of their tea or something like that. I got a bit worried about that but when he came back in to collect the tea he didn't mention it.

Dream 3: I was involved in a camp where we were all flying to Adelaide for the weekend. I was waiting with everybody at the airport for the last person to arrive, but then the leader said the last person had called and she had already made her own way to Adelaide, so we all gathered our stuff and headed to the plane.

Fragment: I was in a tense place at night when the Northern Lights started overhead, mesmerising everyone.

Dream 4: Mythbusters was trying to test if people could actually move faster than 100km/h without serious damage being dealt. They started off by building a super fast rollercoaster which I and a few other volunteers went on, but it didn't get fast enough so the got a small stunt plane. A first group of volunteers went in it and the plane flew up high then zoomed back down to earth, nearly skimming the ground. After this the next group and finally my group all went on the plane to rocket around.

Dream 5: I was on a plane with my family which had landed in water. We all got our lifejackets on and jumped into the water. We swam in a direction for a while and ended up off the coast of Spain in some super rich people resort. We clambered onto land and a staff member there took care of us and led us through the park. The place was full of giant rock formations, caves and old buildings, very nice, and she led us to a food place to get some pizza and drinks.

I love the lucid competitions. Why, you ask? Well, after long lucid dry spells like the one I've had for the past 3 weeks, I become so motivated to post a good score that I pull off nights like this. Even though I didn't score a ton of points since I didn't really accomplish a ton of tasks, I still feel pretty great since I had some quality recall and length of lucids.

I have some fragment about a game where you have to run from zombies. I apparently don't like it, so I leave a bad review of it on the app store.

I woke up for my WBTB, which went longer than expected since my stomach was killing me (late night Taco Bell), but once I did lie back down, I actively tried to WILD, which is the first time I've done that in a long time. And it worked incredibly well, actually.

I'm still in my dorm room, still in bed. Except it's not my bed, it's just a random lofted bed in the middle of the room. I use my right hand to plug my nose, and I'm definitely dreaming. I try to get up, but my torso and left arm are stuck to the bed. I can kick my legs, but I can't move my upper body. Instead of fighting to get out of bed, I imagine myself being pulled downward and make myself phase through the bottom of my bed. This works a little too well, and I end up stuck in the floor. Still, at least I can stand up now, and I click back to above ground somehow. I still can't move my arm though, but I decide this is a good time to try my hand (pun intended) at my robot arm goal. I grab my left arm with my right and attempt to pull my arm off. But suddenly, the dream destabilizes and I wake up.

I manage to lie still and DEILD back into the dream. I'm standing in my dorm room again, but this time I'm completely naked. I'm okay with this though, since I am in my room, after all. I stabilize much better this time, and everything seems much clearer. I decide to walk down the hall anyway. I pass by one room where a friend and his recently-engaged fiancée are making out with the door wide open. I poke my head in and say, “Seriously guys? I know you're engaged and all, but that's disgusting.” I walk by a few more rooms before going into the bathroom. Oh yeah, let's try the arm thing again. I try once again to pull my arm off, but again I wake up. This time, however, it's from my roommate's alarm going off, so I unintentionally move and ruin my chance for a DEILD.

I do fall back asleep and end up in my dorm room again, this time nonlucid. This annoying guy on my dorm walks in and starts talking trash about something I don't remember. I turn to get something from the mini-fridge, and he sneaks up behind me, about to pull my pants down. I swing around and whomp him on the side of his head and start cussing him out. I wasn't really that mad about the pantsing, it was more of a built up aggression based on all the annoying, stupid stuff he's done on the hall.

I’m now in a class that is for some reason taking place in the engineering department lobby. All the students are on couches looking quite comfortable, though I know if I lay out like that, I'll fall asleep and the teacher will yell at me. I instead decide to pull out my phone, but it starts playing music really loud. I try to turn down the volume, but it doesn't work. I'm getting annoyed looks from everyone, so I run out of the room with my phone.

I'm in some video game that I can only describe as a mix between The Matrix and Men in Black. It has an interesting game mechanic where you use fuel to fly around a huge city. You complete quests to gain more fuel, but you also need to have above a certain amount of fuel to access different areas and more quests. So the more you fly around, the more areas that close off because you don't have the minimum amount of fuel. I had recruited several NPCs to fight with me. We were raiding this security room that was guarded by a single girl. But as soon as we attacked her, a ton more security guards showed up and overwhelmed us. As my character was dying, I woke up.

I managed to stay still again and DEILD back into the dream. I “respawn” back close to where I died, but all of my party is gone. The girl is still there, but I really don't feel like fighting her. She’s kinda pretty actually, and in retrospect, she reminded me a lot of Vi. She notices me looking at her. “Do you wanna try again?”
“Nah, not really feeling it anymore.”
“Oh, okay.”
We just spend a while talking, and she takes me into a room with a ton of puppies. I play with them for a while before heading somewhere else. The girl decides to tag along.

We pass by a guy with a quest for us to complete, which apparently involves collecting coins and bringing them back to him. I remember landing a coin on its edge was a lucid goal (it actually wasn't mine, but it was someone else's). I bet him his entire collection of coins that he can’t flip a coin and land it on its edge. He pulls out a penny and tries a few times, but can't make it work. He then hands me the penny, so I flip it into the air. It bounces off of the guy’s head, off of his beer bottle on the table, rolls off the table and spins for what feels like an eternity on the floor. I use a strange mix of telekinesis and sheer willpower to make the coin stay on its edge as it slows to a stop. He growls at me, but finally hands me a huge bottle of coins. I walk off with my prize before I wake up.

After not having a lucid in months, I got one on the first night of the competition! Woohoo! It seemed to be a combination between a DILD and a WILD so I'm not sure how to technically classify it, but here it is! As I was falling asleep initially I alternated using the mantra "Remember, I'm dreaming" with moments of quiet awareness. If I started getting any images I would briefly visualize myself recognizing them as a dream and say my mantra. During my wbtb I repeated the mantra continuously and tried to see it in my mind's eye.

+I started having a dream about walking down a dangerous icy highway in the snow and dogs kept running in the road, I yelled at them to get out of the way because I didn’t have a brake. Two men commented to me about it. I had to hike up an icy ski mountain where a semi truck was driving the wrong way in my lane and found myself in a dungeon where creepy oracles had women shackled up and fucked. Then I noticed a mirror on the wall and remembered I was trying to WILD. I used the mirror as my anchor and willed myself deeper into the dream but with the intention of a different location. I became lucid in my bedroom. Like usual, everything felt weird at first, my body was vibrating and I felt a little disconnected - like I was a computer program with a lot of static. I jumped for joy and spun around to stabilize, everything lagged a little bit. I immediately thought of my 3 step challenge so I grabbed my phone from the living room. There was a black cat sitting on my back deck and it ran away when it saw me. I said, “Ok, when I turn the brightness up on my phone, it will get brighter outside.” It didn’t work so I turned the brightness down and up again. Then I turned it down another time and it became sunnier outside. Woohoo! I stabilized myself again by feeling the island of my kitchen. I needed to find a dream character so I try to leave my house by flying through the closed door. I end up somersaulting in the air, hitting it softly with my back, and slowly sliding down. So I decide to just open it and I see a white van pulling onto the property. A party chef van? I start doubting that I should go outside and talk to some random stranger at 3 in the morning. With my front door cracked so I could keep tabs, I started browsing the internet. Then I remind myself that I'm only dreaming and confirm it by noticing that my neighbor’s house is now a blue and white camper trailer. They’re having a party so I go outside and it’s a bunch of people I’ve never seen. I pick one random, average looking guy in a light blue and white polo with brown hair. He has a plate of food and is heading toward a picnic table. “Excuse me, can I ask you a question for some advice?” “Sure.” I open my mouth to speak and he says, “Oh, this is a question that I may not have the answer to!” And chuckled. A blonde woman walked by and said, “Yeah, the answer could be pig!” I proceeded, “What do I need to know in my life right now?” He didn’t contemplate long before answering, “That you are 100% tall, curvy, and very sexy.” Then he walked off. Wtf?

Just woke up from afternoon nap. Woke up in the morning at 8:30am.

[09:15] <@gab> woo I just got a WILD
[09:19] <@gab> amazing, because I already woke up earlier when sun started shining straight in my face as I fell asleep sitting on my bed, reading
[09:20] <@gab> then my mom waked in my room, kicked my bed as she walked by to water the plants on the window
[09:20] <@gab> their TV is blaring
[09:20] <@gab> and they are talking loud
[09:22] <@gab> as I was falling asleep back after mom woke me up, while hearing them and the tv, I got an image of me running from some cloud of dust kicked up by approaching earthquake
[09:22] <@gab> I stopped but the cloud kept coming
[09:22] <@gab> so I ran again when I decided to push my head back and get a transition going
[09:23] <@gab> I got a transition, got into a dream
[09:24] <@gab> everything was black only center of my vision was clear, so I tried some tricks to make it clear
[09:24] <@gab> then I started going up some ladder and I kept going even after it ended, because I knew I can
[09:25] <@gab> I was starting to lose lucidity so I stepped off the ladder into the air because I know I love jumping
[09:26] <@gab> and that's all
[09:26] <@gab> all this while being aware of the tv and people talking

Preface:
Went to sleep late, around midnight. Had a very busy, awesome day with a friend.

DR1

I was in a new house. I decided to work from home today, so I was seated a a table in the dining room (working on a laptop). My sister was in the background somewhere, moving around.
I heard a noise that sounded like a truck parking in the driveway at the front of the house. I looked outside the window and I could see large grey/white truck, hitched to a trailer, parked in the driveway with the engine running. The driver was eating a sandwich. I called my sister over to the window and told her what was going on. She said, "wait a minute", and she went outside and told him something. He slowly backed out of the driveway. When she came back in..she said he didn't know the house was now occupied. I can't recall much else. I can only recall feeling annoyed that the man was parked in the driveway.

First fragment

I was with group of adventurers, we were fighting our way up an incredibly tall tower. We were fighting with horrible monsters.

First dream

I was in school. It was a really hot spring day, during a break I was searching for a place where it's a bit colder. First I went downstairs to the second entrance, there were kids running around and playing. It still was too hot, I went upstairs and opened a window. A cold breeze blown through the window. As soon as I opened it, teacher called us to class. It was mostly empty, there were like two people left. They had an important exam, while teacher gave me a golf ball that opened itself, revealing more balls. They were all written with text about second world war and authors that written during that time.

Long LD 391 "Gold Thief"
I am on a bus that drives down an escalator with JR and ST. At the bottom of the escalator the bus stops. We get off and my friends start talking about the hotel. A guy is standing in a booth behind toughened glass. The others check in, then I tell him I was already checked in to room 8. The guy hands over some bits of paper and a key card. I follow ST and JR up a set of stairs that twist and turn, which then leads into a tunnel that is too small to stand up in.

Part-way along this causes me to become lucid. The tunnel is now a windowless grey room. After a reality check I remember my three step task and pick a random wall to phase through. It leads to a grey limbo so I push on until it forms a strange barren desert world. Ahead is a wide muddy track with a twisted tree and a guy standing next to two motorbikes.

Next on my three step is to do an advanced summon. Now that's something which is normally tricky. So I try to conjure a motorbike in the air. It doesn't work. Frustrated I jump on the red motorbike already there and set off. There are cars and a train heading down the street opposite so I set off in pursuit. After riding around after the other cars and dodging a train something hits the bike and spins me around. I head back to the tree.

It would really make sense to try and earn some more points, my mind still on the 3 step tasks but relaxed after the ride. I have a better plan this time, summoning a tree, with a large magical gesture that sweeps my arms upwards. The ground doesn't rumble or split though the tree does phase into existence from the base up. The branches wink in and out of existence then finally stabilise. I let out a whoop 'cause it worked.

OK OK. Three for three? Element manipulation. I look down at my hands and try to summon water in them. I've had luck with fire and ice, even electricity. This one is new. I see my hands turning blue and water like. The blue seeps up my arms and over the two little fingers on my right hand. On the left the thumb and first finger turn to water. I keep focusing on it to make more water and it starts spilling onto the floor. All the water from my hands spills onto the ground... and within a few seconds I'm swimming in an enormous lake.

The water continues pouring from my hands though and the blue takes over everything as I try to fly away.

False awakening. My dad is moving stuff around in my room. I wonder what time it is. They are talking about packing to move to Canada. Wait. What? I pinch my nose. Yep still dreaming.

I phase through the window and into a town. Having completed my three step I try to think of other things and come up blank until remembering to sit on a cloud. So I start trying to fly and find the city doesn't want to let me go. It always forms an unexpected barrier over my head.

I manage to do some advanced fast flying though, trying to build up speed to break through, but this doesn't work. In the end I'm in a room filled with people. I think about how cool it would be to enter somewhere like this at will. To be able to fall asleep and instantly enter this realm. I ask a dc if they can help me to to this but they remind me that you need to sleep first and do a WBTB. This is true.

Well there need to be more task attempts with this epically long stable lucid. So I start to do a TOTY and find a weird creature that is fighting some other alien like four-legged creatures. I try to turn it into a goat so I can then do the chimera task but this turns out to be difficult and destabilising.

False awakening. On my wrist is an enormous fitbit with a smartphone size screen, reporting how long I've been in "dream sleep". I do a reality check and become lucid again.

The surroundings are a mess of streets and Hong Kong airport - a mashup of British and Chinese styles. Looking out of the windows I try to summon rain to make a rainbow for the other TOTY, but the sky turns black instead. No good.

I fly through multiple windows and a metal gate thing that block my path. Finally I find a patch of blue sky with a rainbow and start to follow it. At the point it hits the ground it continues through the buildings and twists and turns through the streets that look more like a typical English or Irish village. The rainbow ends at a pit underneath a house. No leprechaun.

I throw stuff down the pit and start shouting to wake the leprechaun up and also digging at the end of the rainbow. The hole starts filling up with shiny golden coins. There is a grumbling noise and the leprechaun seems to be waking up from deep underground.

Then someone flicks my ear. It's a member of the tour group I met in China. She is Irish. Prettiest damn leprechaun ever! (She might not be too happy about it, but I took it that she was a leprechaun there to defend the gold, as she was hostile. ) I take a handful of the coins and announce I'm stealing them. She says something incomprehensible in Gaelic, her body language angry, and tries to flick my ear again, then I wake.
