    1. Old times!

      by , 03-29-2016 at 11:46 AM
      Bed time 3.30 am - 11.29

      I already had ciggarettes but I wanted more so they could last me so me and Ryan ( my friend in reality) walked to the shop. Once we arrived to the shop it looked weird as normally the cigarettes are behind the counter and they weren't. They where above head level. I stood there for quite some time trying to pick which cigarettes I wanted but I couldn't tell the price on them as much as I wanted. He offered to sell me some Cigarette lipstick and ciggarette drinks ( what the hell ) this man look to be from India, mustache and black hair. I seen an old friend out
      side the shop and It made me feel uneasy so I hid in the shop. I seen another friend with him and he use to be my best mate In reality. He came into the shop and we started chatting, he said he was enjoying secondary school. I eventually bought cigarettes and disappeared from the shop ended up on some roof top! Someone from my past was there with me that I really hate but nothing happened, we seen Windows( it was my old friends place ) and I just hear the noise of Windows smashing mentally because I really wanted to smash it, the dream carries on and I get my ciggaretes out and it seems like i smoked about 4 or 5 when I didn't even really touch them, but I give one to Ryan and one to my other mate, he shows me that he has 2 but I still give him one anyway.

      I missed a part out.

      the shop kind of extended and I was looking at magazines and I acknowledge too workers that work there. She moves the rack so I can see clearly but all of them are all about wrestling, I don't know about her but I had that awkward feeling.

      by , 03-29-2016 at 07:08 AM
      1) A triffid plant was eating people in the top floor of a building. Then I was standing ouside the entrance to the building with my wife and children, they decided to go in becasue it was actaully a department store. Then they were showing me pictures of the plant and it was grown every year from seed and produced wonderful fruit and people loved it.

      2) I was sitting in the lounge of an old peoples home. We were talking to my grandmother but she was completely demented. There was another man and his son sat talking to another old person. The there were several young people in the corner, not sure where they cam from, but I could tell they were very intelligent, we talked to them. Somehow the subject of playing musical instrumetns came up and someone told my brother to get his trumbone so he went off to get it and everyone else got out their instruments. I felt a bit stupid because I didn't play anything.
      Suddenyl we were outside and I saw a very old friend from school ride by on a bike.

      3) Vague memory: wanting a nice drink and looking through very old grotty bottles for a drink, lot more to this one, can't remember.

      4) In a house, walking between rooms. The outside with my father in law and a friend of his, looking at the back garden, explaining that they couldn't dig any deeper because of all the rubble in the ground. I went to look and remembered that it was like that when I tried and explained how I used a pick axe. Then I realised we were trying to dig a swimming pool and wondered why they hadn't dug where I had marked it out. Then I was having a conversation with his friend and he had trapped me into coming to his house to do some work and was discussing where I would stay. We got onto a train in the back garden just to go one stop, suddenly we were coming back, my wife was chattering and we missed the stop and I got very annoyed with her.

    3. I got a referral and Odd FA

      by , 03-29-2016 at 05:38 AM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I was in the parking lot of the Freshman campus of my school. I couldn't tell whether or not the sun was setting or rising, but either way 75% of the sky was orange and there were no clouds. It felt as though it was morning however. I had just gotten into my car and started it up. As I did so I looked to my left and saw my friend Connor in his car. I noticed that he had a gray mustang which he doesn't have in waking life. "What's up connor" I said as I rolled down my window. He smiled like he always does "Whats up Cory". Just then I notice Alex's car parked on the row behind me and connor were parked on. It actually was his car. I see Alex, Trey, and a few other of my friends who I forgot walking towards me. "Yo Cory what it do bro" Alex said as he walked up to my driver window along with Trey. "Not much dude just finna go home and chill" I told him. "Aright cool bro. Were gonna go smoke some loud" he said. "Nothing out of the usual right" I said. We all laughed.
      After that Alex and my other 4 friends that were with him all walked over to his car and got in except for Trey. "You riding home with me Trey?" I asked. "Yeah man" he replied as he opened the passenger door and got inside. "Aright lets get outta here" I said. I backed out of my parking spot and started making my way out of the parking lot. Suddenly a school cop got in my way and stopped me. "What the fuck" I thought to myself. I looked over and noticed that Trey was now gone. I stopped my car. The cop got out and walked over to my driver window. The cop was a woman with blonde hair put back, and she was wearing opaque black sunglasses. "Trying to skip school are we now?" she asked me. "What are you talking about? School is over" I told her. "Get out of the car and come with me" she said. I got out of my car and followed her inside of the Freshman campus.
      The freshman campus was set up differently than usual; the front office was now in the back near the parking lot. Before we walked inside of the school the cop pulled out a list. "Where's your name on here and the time you signed out?" she asked. I looked for my name on the list and found it. I saw that I had signed out at 19:11(Earlier in the dream before I had even got to my car I remember signing out and distinctly putting 9:11 a.m.). I noticed that the time I had put down had changed, and this was really bad for my situation. I looked further down the list and saw my name again and earlier I had put the sign-out time for this entry for 1488(whatever that means) but now it read 4881. "Yeah you're getting a referral for sure" the cop lady told me. We walked inside the school and she brought me to the front office.
      As I walked into the front office I noticed that I could barely breathe out of my nose as though I had allergies or something. I was sniffling constantly. The carpet in this office was a nice soft brown and the walls were a yellow that actually complimented the carpet. The office was rather large considering that there was an entire section of it that was basically a library. I followed the cop and she brought me to the middle of the office where a large brown wooden desk was. My counselor Ms. Hawk(she's really hot lmao) was sitting in the desk. "Hey Cory" she said. "Hey Ms. Hawk" Standing next to her was my friend Tori from PreCalculus class. "So you need help with your project for Mr. McGinnis' class in Economics huh?" Ms. Hawk asked me. "Yeah I can't figure out what to do" I told her. Just then Patrick walked in from the door behind me where I also walked in. "What's up dude" he said as he came over to where I was standing. Ms. Hawk then proceeded to show me how to do the project

      2. I was laying in bed(False Awakening) in my room. The lights were off but I could tell it was still daytime outside because of the amount of light coming through my windows despite having shades over them, and plus my door was open so I could see light in the hallway coming in from the huge window in the foyer. I was laying on my back when I suddenly heard a ambient voice. "This is the beginning" it said(what lmao). It was a man's voice and it echoed throughout the whole house it seemed. Everything was quiet after that. There seemed to be no one in the house but me. Just then I heard another voice, but this one belonged to a girl, "Cory!". It was just as ambient and it too echoed throughout the entire house. I then realized it was the voice of the girl I had always been trying to find in my dreams. I then woke up.
      ^^ No idea what really happened in that false awakening or what it really meant; especially "This is the beginning" lol.

    4. British and American history?

      by , 03-29-2016 at 04:28 AM
      D₁-Really more of a fragment. All I remember is a phrase about British and American history

      Dreamskip

      D₂-I'm swimming in a pool. The water feels amazing. Every few seconds I'll dive under and swim to one side and then go up for air. I'll just kinda float once I'm done, then repeat the process. Finally after a couple of times of this I look over and a VERY well-dressed guy is sitting by the pool in black dress pants and a perriwinkle-ish color button up. He's smiling just kinda gazing at the pool. I dive back under the water. Whenever I go up for air I realize I'm in the shallow end. Shit... He gets up and starts walking down the steps into the pool. Before I can dart under the water he grabs me and starts pulling me foreward. Instead of fighting I decide to see what he wants. Our faces are inches apart whenever I realize its Donnovan (my reoccuring dc) he smiles,"MINE." I wakeup.
    5. Getting through the gunk: Johnny Test and Rancid Morals college dream.

      by , 03-29-2016 at 01:40 AM (Lucid Time!)
      I... I don't even know how to approach dreams like this... If dreams are a measure of the mind, I certainly hope people are willing to judge me on more than these...

      I'll go get the dream sins.

      I remember (This was two nights ago) a dream about being on my college campus. I was in my digital media class and for whatever reason we were walking around campy. I remember there was this girl in our class with very pale skin, gray eyes and long black hair. It didn't seem like anyone else in the class really paid much attention to her. We were walking by the rec center when, with absolutely no provocation (I didn't even say anything to her or even look her way, I was largely ignoring her.), the new girl proceeds to walk up to me without saying a word and slap me. (1. Dickhead DCs strike again.)

      My immediate reaction is one of anger, where I proceeded to kick her down into a mud puddle. She started crying that her clothes were ruined. The weird part was everyone took her side and was mad at me for what I had done. (2. That's unfair.) Apparently the underlying moral was that the girl wanted attention but didn't get it so her first instinct was to just hit someone and see what happened. Apparently what I was supposed to do was comfort her her loneliness. (3. How was this girl in college, this behavior wouldn't fly in a kindergarten...) (4. Also, what kind of rancid moral is this? Someone has an emotional problem and their first resort is hitting a random person, yet they're not at fault...?)

      FFWD to last night

      A dream about Johnny Test (5. Johnny Test). I remember the episode was about Johnny developing anorexia (6. PULL OUT! PULL OUT! We do not need a 'Very Special Episode' from this show, especially not one in a dream!) and growing his hair long. I don't remember the exact plot but it had something to do with him not wanting to get a haircut and Johnny had his hair really long in a ponytail. (7. Johnny test steals my waking life ponytail hairstyle.) He then stopped eating, and as soon as he skipped one meal his body got replaced with a realistic ribcage. (8. It was disturbing...)

      He then ran away from school with the dog, who also had a realistic ribcage and spine. (9. Stop doing that!) Some police came and talked to him. Overused joke about how the dog is a kid with a hair disorder. (10. Okay, one, I'm sinning the fact that I even REMEMBER that that was a recurring joke on the show.) (11. That joke, and by extension, my subc makes fun of kids with disorders. Srsly WTH?) He then hid out behind a dumpster that was in the middle of the woods. The environment around them was realistic now though they were still animated characters. Then some random bad guys showed up that I think were duplicates of themselves. (12. What? Why? Gonna explain anything here? Well I guess the show never did so why should the dream?) Go to random fight scene, but because they hadn't eaten lunch, they didn't have the energy to fight. So Johnny pulls two giant (like car sized) sandwiches out of his backpack and he eats one and so does the dog. We get that cartoony effect where their stomachs are in the shape of the sandwich and then you see the inside of their stomachs and the sandwiches change into big laundry bags full of clothes. (13. WHAT? WHAT? Why did food change to clothing? What is the connection there?) The clothes for some reason gave them the energy to start fighting off the evil clones.

      Okay, so then I became a character in the dream rather than just an observer, and there was a duplicate of ME wearing a black leather coat and sunglasses that proceeded to attack me.
      (14. Boo! Pick a plotline!). Then came the main reason I'm being so hard on this dream and breaking out the dream sins... Because when the duplicate me proceeded to jump and kick, I turned sideways to evade, but I also suddenly rolled sideways in waking life. Apparently my cat wasn't too happy about me suddenly rolling and waking up in my sleep because she flew about three feet into the air and made a yowl that woke up everyone on the house. (24. Dream causes problem in waking life. 10 sins for that.)

      ...

      I remember a lot of very distracting sounds and imagery as I was going back to sleep. (HH/HI when I wasn't even trying to WILD... ) I remember I kept hearing sounds like somebody was walking into my room. It was completely non-threatening but it still caused me to wake up because I thought it was someone coming into my room. There was a part where I was in SP and I couldn't move. I didn't freak out. I was just like "Oh, I'm in SP..." In fact it was almost because it was so non-threatening that I ignored it. If it had been a menacing presence, I would have done my darnedest to ignore it. But because I thought it was a parent or cat nosing the door open, I woke up. (25. HI doesn't resort to its usual grim reaper and monster with 8 heads and 12 necks routine when I'm actually prepared for it.)

      At some point I began to get hold of a dreamlet where I was driving home from school. But as soon as I realized a dream was starting to form, I woke myself back up.

      ...

      I got a test back in my earth science class and saw that I had 89.5/100 points. I remember all of the tests were laid out on this big round curvy table. I remember someone (I think it was my dad) was carrying me around on their shoulders walking down the curvy table like it was a road and stepping on everyones tests. Someone was upset that their test now had a dirty footprint on it.

      ...

      I was drawing some rather... risque art in Photoshop. I remember a pair of breasts that I couldn't get to look right. The shading was always off no matter what I did. Don't remember what else was in the painting though.

    6. Nap Induced Dream using the Keyboard Technique

      by , 03-29-2016 at 01:06 AM
      I used the Keyboard Technique w/ my fingers & had a dream that I was aware of being in a dream & could change things but I did not have the higher state of consciousness hence, I did not open my eyes when that ah-ha moment occurred which makes the LD not genuine. True lucidity has to have this. For some reason, a lot of ppl don't seem to get this concept. My dream was about my son who's home from college & we were in a house arguing & he hit me.... I have a good relationship w/ my son & this would never occur but do to bickering over my new cat who is being territorial & relieving herself on his bed, this has made for some tension lately but totally normal & understandable.

    8. Day 3

      by , 03-29-2016 at 12:54 AM (The Nightly Dreamer)
      Pre-Sleep Notes:


      • Will be FILDing at 4 1/2 hrs and 6 hrs.


      Alarms failed. Zero recall.

      Notes:


      • It took me less than 30 seconds to fall asleep when I woke up at 6-hour mark. And I thought I was too awake for FILD!
      • The alarm needs to be louder.

    9. DJ#127: Plane Simulator & China

      by , 03-28-2016 at 10:12 PM (BlairBros' Adventures)
      28/3/16: (Cracked the 100 dreams recalled this month yay!)
      Dream 1: I was at a house, presumably my own, where the old neighbours had moved out and the new ones were just moving in. I went outside to greet them and saw them all siting around a table in the driveway having a picnic. I saw they were half chinese and half something else, for some reason I didn't go up to say hello but stood back and just watched them for a bit.

      Dream 2: I was on a plane flight and I was supposedly the wealthiest individual in the world. I was probably in first class when the plane started juddering and shaking about. I asked a flight attendant what was going on and she said she didn't know. People around me were acting like we might be crashing and I tarted getting worried, so I cornered the flight attendant in a secluded spot and told her of my wealth, 10.7 trillion dollars, and that I could give her a substantial reward if she told me what was really going on. She told me that it was all a simulation, but to not tell the other passengers. I went back to my seat and the flight continued on as per normal. A little while later though the juddering started again, and then it appeared like the side of the plane got ripped off and a little kid got sucked out of the plane. Everybody screamed and panicked until the hole fixed itself and people realised it was just a simulation. Everyone began laughing nervously as we began to descend. We landed and as I got out I saw we were at Disneyland. I got off with my family and we started walking away. My brothers got a bit lost however but we managed to get reunited. We passed a small carousel which was shut down and being turned into an iron man ride.

      Dream 3: I was travelling across China in a train and was looking out the window as we arrived and then departed from Nanjing.

      I had a false awakening fragment where I thought I had remembered a few dreams and then went back to sleep.

      Netflix series binge watching wreaks havoc on sleep schedule!
      3am bedtime, ~4-4.5 hours of sleep.

      + (f) I'm getting a beer at the counter at a bar. Someone says I should put pepper in to minimize the ginger. I put in too much pepper, "aw crap," I say. I pour out the beer to separate it from the pepper into another glass.

      by , 03-28-2016 at 05:49 PM
      I had another uneventful night due to my son being home from college & a dispute between him & my newly acquired cat over territory. But I am gonna take a nap & use the Piano Key Method. I fed my cat so she would nap & hopefully my son will stay in his own space since he stayed up all night.

    12. Hidden sun village

      by , 03-28-2016 at 04:27 PM
      I was walking in the woods. Everything seems great, like usual. But then I saw some houses, small buildings. I must have reached a village. There was someone there. I asked why is everyone inside. She replied that the sun was changing today, and I must hide somewhere to not be burned. I hid inside a small building. Through the windows, I see the sun moving really fast in the sky. The sky was yellow-ish and the sun was really really bright, reality-like bright. Then, it started to burst intense blue light, making it even brighter. I shut the window's blinds because I didn't want us to burn. Even with the blinds closed, a flash of white light came occurred. Then, everything was calm again. We opened the door to see what happened. The sky was red-ish and yellow, there was a new sun in the sky, replacing the old one! It was bigger and red. At was actually less bright, as I could watch it without burning my eyes. I decided to explore the rest of the woods. I was with the girl who told me to hide. The forest was going up, just like a hill. I saw one of my friend and I decided to go back.

    13. Forest Chain LDs

      by , 03-28-2016 at 04:21 PM (Oneirin's Dreamworld)
      The following entry is a series of five periods at which I became lucid during the night, possibly in more that one REM period.

      1. I appear in my childhood home and my awareness begins to increase. I check hands as a reinforcing RC and notice 6. I walk to the front of the room and consider flying out through the window, but decide against it as to practice & focus on stabilization. I simply becoming more aware of my surroundings as I stare at the corner of the room. I think back to DV posts and podcasts encouraging simply being aware of the dream and heightening awareness rather than influencing and getting swept away; I feel this greatly helped my stabilization & focus, and increased duration. I continue down the hallway and rub my hands a bit to increase focus. I head toward the window but notice a bit of black out coming. Instead of spinning like a typically did in the past, I decided to instead meditate in the dream, meditating through the void while using the mantra "I am dreaming".

      2. I reappear in an LD and notice immediately I am dreaming. I check my hands anyway. I decide this time to make it outside and quickly head toward the main entry and continue to walk, paying attention to surrounds closely without influencing. Once outside, I am happy with how vivid everything is and how stable everything feels. I then recall some dream goals I had written down: meeting my spirit teacher/guide. I shout out to the dream yet nothing appears. I continue down the street and look to the left. I see a beautiful forest grove behind the neighbor's house with slight orange amber light coming through. I have an inclination to head toward it and figure the dream is encouraging me there for a reason. I make my way behind the house with a very low flying movement, and continue on into a grove of druid/beastmasters. This area appears to be where their clan resides. I am greeted quickly by a young lean man with short blonde stubble short/med length dark hair, and ragged leather clothes of a druid. He is followed by a company of a few others int he clan which all appear friendly/inviting. I am currently inside their den/tent area waiting by a low table for them to approach. We are in a small room off to the side of the main building, with seats surrounding the table. I gaze into the main chamber beyond, and the walls apear to be adorned with an array of natural tapestry including pieces of animal pelts. There are a few additional members of the clan in the area, including males and females. The young man in front of me is intrigued at my appearance, and I begin to discuss the reality I'm experiencing. We both take a seat. I ask him something along the lines of whether or not he is a guide - he mentions he is confused about the reality I'm experiencing as this is his reality. I soak in the surrounding yet notice a bit of blackness coming. Once again I decide to meditate through. I inform the group that I need to meditate to re-emerge in a dream (intending to return/continue the conversation). I continue to recite the mantra "I"m dreaming" as the void approaches.

      3. I know right away that I'm dreaming and decide this time to head into the backyard as I remember the past dreams of venturing to the front. Once I descend into the back, I decide to enter a portal as I want to cover more ground. Rather than create a portal, I simply imagine that the surface of the bush will act as a portal to a nature-based dreamscape. As I walk in, the area becomes dark and unstable. Instead of meditating, I decide to walk through the bush and continue to pop out the other side. I re-enter the void state.

      4. I appear in my room and check hands to ensure it's a dream. I quickly head downstairs and decide to simply explore without interfering. I spend some time downstairs (possibly a minute or so, but memory is foggy at this period).

      5. Once again I appear somewhere around the upper floor and quickly fly to the frond and decide to ask the dream more serious questions which I have written in my RL DJ in order to incubate/give meaning to the the LD experience. Once I make my way to the street, I once again soak in all of the vividness. The dim reddish twilight makes it's wake through the darkened clouds as it appears to be the middle of night. I shout out to the dream "How do I develop my Spirit the most in this lifetime dream?! How do I develop my spirit to the highest degree in this life?! I wait for a response but nothing audible comes. I notice a pink light appear in the 2nd story window of a house a couple houses down. I reason that this would be a good place to head to. As I make may way closer, I begin to feel as though my body is stirring somewhere else (a strange realization which is difficult to relay) and I begin to transition to waking life. I am reluctant to open my eyes, yet move through a RC. Yes - I'm awake in RL!

    14. College

      by , 03-28-2016 at 12:34 PM
      I posted about my problems on my life problems page, and see that I had a reply off someone i have never seen on the forum! While I was reading it I didn't understand some of the words that was being said.

      I remember my friend luke was in college and he got paid for going, so I walked up to college with him, there where 3 shutters and the middle one was open, I asked why it wasn't closing. The dream carried on and we walked into this big old grey building, me and him where smoking on my eciggarette but I notice how the smoke was getting upto the smoke alarm so I ran out the place.

      That being said, I remember being in a room with my girlfriend and her friend. She gave me her phone while I looked at something and honestly I've never seen a phone like it, it barely even had a screen on it

      Trying to take note off some of the weird things in me dreams.

    15. [28-03-2016]

      by , 03-28-2016 at 10:39 AM (Snehk's Dreamlands)
      I was in school, at usage of wood resource classes. I felt ill and almost slept on a table. The teacher mentioned incoming vocation exam. I took a pillow and a blanket from my backpack and tried to fall asleep while teacher said that me and two other people should stay in classroom, while others must go away. He was mad for some reason. I looked around the classroom. One dude have lost his hand and was changing bandages, while his pal was jus lightly injured. Other guy made his pal a prank, which enraged the teacher. He yelled at everyone, then took me for an exam that I still had to pass. I was highly unprepared, so I said that I'll finish it another time.

      Later on during another lesson I was called to help some teacher, and when I wanted to get back to my current lesson, one of the teachers closed the doors. Luckily she opened them and I went to the classroom - it was somehow empty, with only few people inside. I took a seat and then teacher showed us movies with random creatures and their lairs, and we had to draw them in our notebooks.
