    1. 1/11/16 - Competition Night #1 (2016 Lucid #5)

      by , 01-11-2016 at 07:01 PM
      First had a fragment about some weird British comedy show, like Monty Python. It involved these weird horses…
      Spoiler for NSFW:
      ...running through the streets, disrupting traffic.


      I did a WBTB and then fell back asleep. I’m in my house and quickly realize I’m dreaming. I plug my nose to RC just to make sure, and then stabilize by rubbing my hands and (for some reason) licking my fingers. I get right to work on doing some tasks for the competition. I start with flying, of course, since that’s usually the easiest for me. I’m in the upstairs hallway and try to lift myself off the ground. It’s somewhat difficult for some reason, so I decide to move to my parents’ bedroom, where the ceilings are much higher, giving me more room to fly around. Sure enough, flying is a lot easier, and I stay in the air for quite a while.

      There’s a bit of a gap in my memory, but I’m now downstairs on my porch. All the furniture is gone, it’s just the walls and the carpet. I decide to phase through the door, so I get a running start and push my way through. It feels like I’m going through a slab of jelly, but I do make it to the other side. I head back inside, but my mom stops to ask me what I’m doing. I don’t really know how to explain it to her, so I just shrug my shoulders and walk off.


      I remembered a lot more of this lucid when I woke up afterwards, but I quickly fell back asleep and forgot a good portion of it. I feel like I did more tasks, but I can’t think of them at the moment, so I guess this’ll have to do.

    2. 2016-01-11 LDs#164,#165 all night awareness

      by , 01-11-2016 at 06:57 PM
      I went to bed around midnight quite tired, but my awareness just would not let me fall into unconscious sleep. My wife came to bed late and woke me up. In retrospect it felt like I was WILDing from bed time. A case of dolphin's "all night awareness" I believe.

      early:

      + I'm standing in a house, on a stairway, I see my father walking up from a higher landing up other stairs. He is naked, and his "stuff" is vaguely visible, so I turn away to preserve his modesty.

      I'm in my parent's bedroom, my mother is talking to me, she wants me to take a look at some letter that my sister brought by. I'm upset at her for talking to me because I'm trying to fall asleep (!). I take a look at it and there are some cards and a piece of paper but it seems not to be of any importance.

      + (f) I'm viewing a scrolling list of some sort, reading it, it's important.

      + (f) I'm thinking about fitting into zero area spaces between lines and the intersections of planes.

      I waken and realize these were dreams and spent some more time floating in "awake" awareness until the next bunch of dreams:

      + I awaken in bed to a sudden "bang" sound. I'm in my adult home, but sleeping in my son S1's bedroom but with my head by the window in the corner. I pull up the covers and try to feign sleep. It's son S2 who's up and making noise, coming out of the master bedroom into the hallway. He announces: "Guess who's going to Prom!?" This is odd since I know he's University age.

      + There are two young men, there is a narrator voice, it is vaguely sexual in some way, the young men are singing, something they say sounds like "fantasy." There is a track from where they are that runs along the right wall of the room, and little round things are rolling down this track. They are very small (1/4 inch) round thumbtacks with tiny x-rated scenes painted on them. There's a bunch of them stuck on to the wall by my bed. I'm pulling them out and seeing the holes left behind. Son S2 comes in and starts looking at them and I'm trying to hide them. I pull the bed away from the wall and there are more there stuck in the wall running along the floorboards.

      LDs:

      later:

      + LD#164 I'm the same bedroom as the previous dream (adult home son S1's bedroom), it is dimly lit. My wife is there and there are the same x-rated little thumbtacks stuck in the wall again, she is looking at them and saying "what are those?" I'm trying to pick them up and hide them, piling them on the bed, I ask her some question to distract her, then I have a feeling that this is an absurd situation and didn't I already deal with this? and get fully lucid, quick nose pinch confirms. The dream gets a bit unstable right away, dizzy/fading but quick hand rub brings it nicely back into focus. I remember TOTM basic I (read the title of a book) and go to the bookcase up against the wall and pull off a book and look at it, reading is difficult but I see "winnie". Then I'm looking through some book flipping through the pages and I see a bunch of colorful complex stick figures. No matter how fast I flip the pages there is always a clear picture there, I'm amazed that my mind can produce the images so quickly.

      I walk out into the hallway, and there seated on the floor next to son S2's bedroom door are my sons, aged about 3 and 5. I call them to me and get hugs from both of them, that was really nice. I walk down the hallway and turn into the family room, I walk to the bookshelf to check out more books since I want to make sure I get TOTM and I just want to try reading books. I decide I can order some food from the kitchen. I walk back to the family room entrance looking into the kitchen and am about to formulate an order and decide I'm rather just summon it myself directly. At first I call for pepperoni pizza but decide I want a Round Table King Arthur Supreme [my favorite chain pizza…mmm]. I think about extending my arms into the "aether" and grabbing it like Merlin does with Logrus magic in Zelazny's Amber books. My hands don't come back with a pizza but I glance down on to a table and see an open pizza box with a pepperoni pizza in it. I take a slice and eat. One of my kids comes in and eats some as well. I have the thought that this is a long, stable LD and that this is due to my daytime mindfulness work.

      Back to the bookshelf, I take a book from the middle section and open it and can't make any sense out of the title or the contents. I rationalize this via thinking "oh this is from my wife's German books collection" [false]. Then I go to the right section and think I see my old college Astronomy textbook. I take it out and open it, and at first I get the impression that I can understand words, but then everything seems to be abstract geometrical shapes.

      I've had enough of reading so I walk towards the living room. On the way there I get the idea to summon MaSt for some "fun." I'm calling out her name "M St…., M St…, M St…" and am walking around the (totally empty) living room. I walk by the light switches and try to operate them to make the room lighter. It doesn't work and I continue walking around the room, but give a quick thought to "be lighter" and notice that there is a bit more light.

      Then I notice that the wall on the side of the entry way is all glass [DS] and I can see two local neighbor kids outside, a boy and a girl. I make a gesture for them to approach. I then see them again and their faces are a bit different. I go outside and there are a few more people here. Another man/woman pair whom I think are also very young / kids at first but as I approach them they seem more like fully mature adults but are just very short, they walk away from me. I turn back towards my house and there is a woman there whom I see in passing has a very large dark birthmark on her face. I will her face to be clear and briefly notice it happening but head back in to the living room.

      There is a young man there now seated on a bench and we exchange a few words. I decide to tell him what's going on. I walk past him and say "you are a dream character within my lucid dream!". He says "What!? NO!" and comes at me aggressively. I push him back and decide we'll fight and I pull out my lightsaber from my "utility belt" and turn it on. Sigh, weak translucent colors again. We both have light sabers and are vaguely swinging them around. I tell him to turn up the opacity on his as I want to do to get fully operational light sabers. Then he backs into a TV in an entertainment center cabinet and disappears into the picture tube. I stick my saber in there and swish it around, I want to see the TV set ripped apart in molten metal effects but instead I just get a bit of static popping up on the screen.

      I go back to walking in a circle around the empty living room and calling for M St… to appear, holding my hand behind my back, but the dream slowly fades.


      I feel myself in bed, with something on top of my eyes. But I don't want to open my eyes for fear of fully waking up. I try to slowly open my eyes. Then suddenly…

      + a new bright scene instantly appears. I'm lying on my back on a medical table against a wall in a very brightly lit medical procedure room. There is a black female middle aged nurse at the food of my bed, I'm pulling her on top of me and down for a kiss, I manage a quick kiss and want to make out with her but she pulls away, saying that I don't look good from my condition, and that "we've already done it today anyway". She walks along the side of my bed around to my head. She asks if I've decided to go ahead with the treatment, and asks me for the diagnosis. I notice I'm in a medium-large sized room with many patients on medical tables and many people attending to them. There is a person on a table nearby with someone standing next to him. I hear myself mumbling some medical terms that seem nonsense except I recognize the word "cortex."

      The nurse then inserts some thick needle object slowly into the area beneath my left eyebrow and above my eyelid. It feels like the skin the needle is going through is very thick and it moves very slowly, it's quite painful. It also feels like there is some sort of hard clamp placed over the needle holding in it place. Something clicks and I roll off of the bed/cart and am lucid, a quick nose pinch confirms. I'm in caveman right away and looking for a suitable female. Everyone in this room seems old/ugly. I'm walking out of this room and the black nurse is pursuing me but I call back to her "you already had your chance."

      I think what to do/where to go and I realize there must be a particular kind of doctor nearby and see an entrance to a waiting room and enter. There are a lot of people here too. I find a suitable DC sitting in a chair and kneel down in front of her. A male relative/friend of hers has his arms firmly around her shoulders.
      Spoiler for sexy time:
      while I'm reassuring her that the doctor knows exactly how to treat people like her so it will all be fine. After about 10-15 seconds,
      the dream fades.

      I wake happy at the very nice sequence of LDs and achieving TOTM.

      I just want some restful sleep at this point and try to release any lingering awareness so I'll fall asleep quickly.

      I sleep and dream some more. A number of scenes, mostly fragmented, some excerpts:

      +(f) walking in a hallway I realize I'm walking along former colleague DeHo, who lives in SC. I say "hi" and lean over to give her arm a friendly bump but instead I brush her breast by mistake. I feel a bit embarrassed and she leans a bit away from me. We talk about the weather a little bit?

      + (f) I'm trying to get an ice cream vendor to explain something to me and they're not cooperating.

      + (f) at my kid's birthday party, there are a lot of kids, how shall we ferry them all to the next destination? We'll need several cars, I can't see how this is possible. Also something about serving them ice cream.

      +(f) traveling with a girlfriend? She slides up to me on a seat and it's very cozy.

      + (f) I'm sitting down in a dim location on a bench with a girl I know is ElWa (grad school colleague). I sense her husband GrBa is watching us from the shadows. I put my arm on her bare leg and feel some stubble. I wonder what else is hairy. I know it's her but saying her name would somehow ruin the situation.
    3. Driver on the lawn / Armed intruders / Discount pizza / Alien transformation

      by , 01-11-2016 at 06:49 PM

      Bed @ 2330
      Woke @ 0330


      Fragment: I'm at home, thinking about Apollo 13 and Mission Control


      Woke @ 0645

      Driver on the lawn
      I look out one of the front windows of my house and see a guy in a pickup truck (white, with a blue logo on the side) drive from right to left across my yard leaving tire tracks in the grass. Part of me is annoyed, while part is curious: how did he get through the bushes on the right side of the property? And just what does he think he's doing? Now it's another day. I look up and see the same guy in the same truck drive across the lawn in the same way, now leaving a second set of tire tracks. Incensed, I get up to run outside to try to get more info about who he is and try to figure out how to stop him.

      Now I'm outside. There's no sign of the truck, but there is some heavy stuff around the yard that hadn't been there before, including a few traffic barrels and some kind of heavy concrete thing with chain coming out of it. I decide to use these things to block off one side of my lawn so he can't drive through it again.


      Armed intruders
      I'm in my garage at night working on some kind of project. An unexpected movement, seen out of the corner of my eye, makes me instinctively grab a piece of nearby scrap wood and whirl to face it. The movement turns out to have been some kind of small animal that snuck in, so I relax. As I turn back around to whatever I was doing, I see a young woman coming towards me. I brandish the scrap wood in a defensive posture. I realize the wood is much lighter than I'd expected, and it won't actually make for a great weapon, but she won't know that. Unfortunately, she pulls out a small handgun, and I doubt my ability to rush and club her. I duck behind a pillar, but not before I see two men, also with guns out, starting to flank me. I know there's no way I can keep the pillar between myself and all three of them, so I get as low as I can, put down the wood, and put my hands behind my head - partly as protection, partly as a sign of surrender. The woman reaches me first and points her gun at my head. I offer a quick prayer to commit my soul to God and stare at her, waiting for her to pull the trigger but hoping she won't.

      Now I'm alone, and I have the gun from one of the guys. At first glance it looks to be a small revolver. When I open the cylinder, I see that it has more than one ring of bullets; wow. As I look more at them, I realize the bullets are a variety of shapes, sizes and lengths. Further examination shows that, instead of being arranged in multiple rings, the bullets are actually arranged in triangular groups of three, so each third round is closer to the center than the others. I wonder how the guy could keep track of which bullet is where. When I close the cylinder again, I see that he'd put pieces of masking tape on the outside with labels showing which bullet was in which spot.


      Discount pizza
      I'm going through my mail and run across yet another flier from my <company>. I'm a little annoyed: they've been sending these things out for days now. The strangest thing about it is that each flier is addressed to a different person. Yesterday it came to my wife, and today it came to Robert, a guy at church I've said 'hi' to once or twice. As I look over it, I see a note saying that this is the last flier, and tomorrow they'll get back to their regular business of <something>. I'm relieved. As I go to throw away the flier, I see a bunch of tiny coupons along the bottom. One catches my eyes: $78 off an order from a local pizza place I've never heard of. I show it to my wife, who's in the process of putting some random leftovers into the oven, and suggest that we could do pizza for dinner tonight. I know we've had pizza recently, but we're running really low on leftovers, and it's hard to turn away free pizza. She agrees.

      Now I'm at my computer pulling up their website. I wonder if I'll have to create an account, and I wonder if it'll be a problem that the flier was sent to Robert and not to me. When the site comes up, it says "Hello Nazrax" in the corner, and I'm surprised - I don't remember coming here before. Oh well. I look around for a place to put a coupon code but I can't find one. I look back at the flier and see it says to call them up, talk to Rebecca, and ask her to associate coupon code 147xx with my forum account. On the web page, I notice that my name is a link, and I click it to see if it goes to a forum profile.

      Now I'm eating a really good sandwich I'd ordered from them while I was trying to figure out how to get the discount. My hands are a bit greasy, so I ask my wife to make the call.


      Alien transformation
      A woman is investigating something on another planet. Now she's been captured and is in an enemy spacecraft. She sees another woman trapped in a strange field, being raised up into something, and dashes over to her, jumping into the field herself, trying to save her. Now they're in it together, rising up into a hole in the ceiling. A strange glowy black sphere comes down to them. I have the feeling they're going to become psychically conjoined.

      Now she's somewhere else, being examined by her own people. Sure enough, she's now aware of the other woman's thoughts; but she's also been turned into a cat woman with yellowish fur. She's very unhappy about everything, including her new instincts, but someone points out that <important person>'s main bodyguard is a cat woman.

    4. Competition Fragments

      by , 01-11-2016 at 05:41 PM
      At the store and someone complains. It makes the cashier lady cry. The cashier is really passive but she has to write down the interaction and it shows on a screen I can see. She writes that she basically told the customer that she was the boss and he had to listen. I was going to take a picture and show D because I thought it was funny but I remembered I only had an old fashioned flip phone. Everyone started calling their S.O’s so I called mine even though we were in the same store. We had to be secretive about it. I felt very in love with him. I saw a certain man twice in two roles, I figured he was a filler like in movies.
      Hailey called and there was a lot of silence on the phone. She was upset. She told me she talked to a psychic who told her that the toilet is a symbol for how she looks down on other women and it’s true. I told her some people do that to make themselves feel better. I’m walking through a building. I say goodbye in my head and hang up. I forget to say it out loud so she texts me “ok?” I go to text her back but never finish.
      D and I stay at a hotel. Our room has only double beds. Every room has stickers of football mascots. I see the back of a dolphin one on someone’s door. We have a partial ocean view, but the weather is wild and we basically have a raging waterfall and river right outside our door. I go to the shower and my mom is there, she starts talking about Alesia while I’m trying to use a homemade product.

      Al.W. drew a funny picture.

      A male and female are captured and trying to escape. They take a chance because they’ve had enough. They slide down a hill and the guy complains because he gets rug burn from his shirt. The girl thinks he’s whiny. At the bottom the girl sees a detached train car that says “resources” when she goes in it blows up because it was a trap. That was sneaky of the enemy. A little dog runs toward the guy, it’s badly burnt but it survives.

      I dreamed of being lucid and playing Mario with team members on DV. Someone posted in response to a criticism : “excuse us while we try to figure out our ass from our head.”

      I tried to pee like a man but couldn’t, and it ended up getting everywhere.

      In the woods and it’s very crowded. There are tents everywhere and lot of people. I see a big grizzly bear walking around and I’m really stressed out about it. I want to warn people but I’m not sure of the bear’s intentions and I don’t want to aggravate it. Why isn’t it hibernating anyway? I also see a moose and the moose comes toward me, it gets very close and it kinda makes me nervous because i’m not sure if it’s aggravated or not.

      Danielle was complaining about a headache

      FA/hypnagogic imagery. I was frustrated that I was tired but couldn't fall asleep and then woke up and realized I had been asleep

    5. Weird experience

      by , 01-11-2016 at 04:35 PM
      So I was doing a WBTB + WILD combination and I was focusing on the "hypnagog speckles and shapes" and suddenly I was in a room what I imagined earlier, a young woman told me to drink from a wierd liquid (grey, treacly smthing and it had a bad taste too, I can still recall ) because thus I will be lucid. I drank a sip and she was right! The room became more realistic as the feeling of being there as well. So I drank the whole glass. It didn't become better but it was already pretty realistic.

      All of a sudden I was again in my bed. But I had FAs before so I didn't have to do RC-s, I knew it's a dream. I just lift my hand and it felt really weird. I started to rolling sideways, not intentionally, I just wasn't entirely in dream state and I was afraid that if I move, I'll be awaken. So I was just rolling sideways for a really long time and the same time it was kinda like falling.

      Next thing, I'm again in my bed, my eyes are closed and I'm afraid to open due to awakening. A little bit later I'm in the sky and a guy grabs me and fly with me. The whole experience was soo weird. But the DCs were really kind and helpfull and after all, it was a semi-LD, or to be more accurate I was fully lucid just the dream/dreams was/were not entirely dreams.

    6. RIP

      by , 01-11-2016 at 03:22 PM (Here be dragons)
      I woke up to the new of David Bowie's death. He said goodbye so often I can't believe it's real this time. He shaped a large part of my teenage years and I started to embrace weirdness, scary monsters and supercreeps thanks to him.
      I kind of forgot my dream after that.
    7. My First Dream Journal Post! Too much chaining but only 5 sec Lucid, great dream nonetheless

      by , 01-11-2016 at 02:57 PM
      Lately i've been trying to improve my recall by setting 4 alarms in the night. it seems to be working

      I go sleep at 2:30, wake up in 6:45 then try to SSILD as NickSeagull suggested. I couldn't get it to work but i did managed to dream very vividly...

      I'm going to my old middle school to take a test about how i improved myself over their teachings in the 11 years i graduated. I see my friends there, and we talk about how we don't like to take the test, and glad we don't have to go to the school anymore and see that geography teacher.(she doesn't exist irl btw)

      As we move to the class, SURPRISE! There is the geography teacher with the tests! She hands out the tests and i look at the paper, there are lots of trigonometry and i think some history questions that i don't know the answer for. I try to peek at my friends paper to cheat but he just says that he is finished and leaves. I peek at another classmate's paper, she looks like she is struggling but still its better than mine so i fill the sheet with her answers

      The geography teacher comes near me and looks at my paper, and says "good, you still remember something". I smile and give her my paper, and we talk a little bit and i don't know why i was hating her, she seems nice enough I go to the cafeteria and eat some sandwich then go outside.

      I wake up by the alarm, write a little about the dream then close my eyes...

      I'm still at the same school, it's a little different than irl but it's better imo. There is a basketball court that turned into a concert stand. I go there and ask to the girl who will be playing? She says "YOU!" and i find myself at the middle of the stage. Just when i think "where is my guitar?", she hands me my own guitar. As i'm trying to understand what is happening, a cameraman and an interviewer enters the scene, asking me questions about something. I say to the interviewer that i'll answer her questions later and i strum a chord on my guitar, which shatters the D string. BAH! It's too much! I leave the guitar on the ground and tell them to fix this and as i storm out i find my friends laughing madly. I tell them it'll probably took half an hour for them to fix this mess and we can take my car for a ride. We hop into the car but almost all the roads are closed for maintenance, the ramps are very steep and my friends and i have no sense of direction apparently We end up on a highway, then a car tries to make us crash by bumping rear right of my car but fails miserably and crashes to the left side. Btw i notice one white car is following us a long time so i tell my friends we need to ditch the car. One of my friend tells us we can take a bus nearby, so i listen to him and take a fast turn to the bus stop.

      I wake up again. It takes a while for me to sleep, but the dream continues...

      We are in the bus now, and just as we think we are safe, two shady looking guys in long coats and a woman enters the bus in the next stop. Guys took a seat front of us and the woman seats in the back. The bus starts to move, and the guys look at us. I get up and go near them and tell them "What do you want" with a bit angry tone. Three of them just pulls their pistols and looks at me without saying anything. At this moment i notice that we're nearing a police station. I yell at the driver to stop at the police station! The woman says "Oh, we're going there anyways" and smiles.

      Waking up again! Damn... I close my eyes while hoping to continue the dream...

      I'm in the police station but it's not very clear. It's like i'm daydreaming. Dreaming? Yes i was trying to sleep! As i think of that, i feel like my consciousness has been transferred to my dream body, i look around for 5 seconds, feel fuzzy and weird. But at the same time i could feel my real body a little. My vision went darker and darker but i feel like i'm still in the dream. I think my dream eyes were closed maybe? I open them, i wake up :/

      Trying to sleep, hard!

      I don't know if it's the same dream or not, but the building i'm in definitely looks like a police station, but unfortunately i can't understand it's a dream and miss my chance of being lucid. And it wasn't as vivid or clear as the other dreams i had this night. But here's what i remember;

      -I was talking to a girl who flirted me irl 2 days ago, i wasn't really into her then, but i always flirt back in a dream But i didn't stay there long though because i think i had stuff to do. I go back in time to rescue some people from magicians who sacrifices humans for power. I remember some battle scenes from that, especially cutting one warriors arm. But it wasn't too vivid as i said before. Maybe it was a job given to me at the police station, i don't know

      I wake up.

    8. Unicorns!!

      by , 01-11-2016 at 12:42 PM
      11/1/2016 (sun)

      ND "Big Web"

      The bedroom is painted yellow, so it's not mine. Also there are spiders webs all over it. One corner of the room is covered in a triangular trampoline-like web. A large spider is sitting in one corner of it. Better get rid of it before AB sees it and freaks. It's so large it's going to make a huge mess if squished so I look for a box to capture it in. I find a box under the bed but look back and see the spider has vanished.

      In the false awakening that follows I talk to a tall guy and then later give a description of him to some other people.

      Long LD 333 "Unicorns and Rainbows"
      Breakfast is about to be served, however I really need the toilet. The way upstairs is blocked by a large wooden cabinet. I climb over it and make it to the bathroom. After finishing my business though, the toilet is in the middle of a cafe. People are eating at nearby tables. Well this is awkward... I attempt to wipe my arse but it remains unclean. This makes me partially lucid, enough to realise that there is no need to clean myself.

      LT is standing at a nearby table with a pile of salad cuttings that she clears into a bag. We talk about the crap she posts on Facebook, most of which she blames on her children. We start heading out through the door and while walking I realise it's about time to do something with this dream and become fully lucid. Jumping and phasing through the nearest window lands me in a street, where I immediately start looking for a motorbike. None in sight, so I just concentrate on the thought and keep turning around until one appears.

      The small silver bike refuses to start. I slam the tank with my palm in irritation, but then spot a car park full of motorbikes and run over to find something else. One looks like a red VFR, that'll do. Again the bike stays silent and the engine wont start. This calls for a lucid trick - fake it. So I twist the throttle and make 'motorbike noises' and start pushing it down the road until it starts working properly. I head down the street and pick up some speed before coming to a T-Junction. Turning right takes me into a small pedestrianised square. Time to do some flying.

      Using 'superman' style, I try flying but find it slow and boring. I focus on the opposite wall of the square and attempt to zoom there, but it is still too slow. While hanging off the wall I now stare at the wall on the far side, which is formed of several brick archway-like windows. "I'm already there. I'm already there." I repeat to myself and then launch off, this time hurtling towards the archways and through them at a much more respectable speed.

      A hand waves a video tape out of a window as I fly past, so I stop to try and grab it. The hand and tape withdraw, but I decide it's time to land and try and finish off my three-step-task by transforming into a gryphon. My first attempt is by pure willpower and succeeds in making me around 12ft tall, with claws, but not really what I had in mind. There is a spaced-out blonde haired woman standing watching me. "Can you turn me into a dragon?" I ask, changing my mind about the form I want. She smiles and starts chanting a spell which rhymes like a poem. (Forgot the words, but it was cool.)

      The spell lifts me up into the air and twists me onto my back, but then dumps me into a metal cage. How rude! The stoned woman has vanished too. Well, the transformation didn't complete, but I still feel large and powerful, so I grab the bars and rip them apart.

      On a nearby table is a computer screen showing two tiny figures fighting. As I look closer they stop arguing and one of them holds out his hands. I extend my two index fingers and his tiny hands grab onto them and he pulls himself out of the screen. Neat trick. "Hey, can you turn me into a dragon?" I ask.
      "Sure. What type?" On screen are four buttons reading the elements "Fire", "Earth", "Air", "Water". I select air. The tiny figure gestures at me and a tingling sensation covers my body. My hands turn... furry? What the hell? Screw this.

      I decide it's not my night for transforming and recall another TOTY - the unicorn one. So I call out for a unicorn. Down the street behind a short wooden fence is a white horse with a single horn on it's nose. The horn doesn't stick out though, but grows out and then bends backwards towards the eyes. Also, the horse has long white hair all over. Nevermind. I climb onto the unicorn's back, noting that it has a hump that is the same shape as a motorbike tank. So I hunch down on it's back as if on a sports bike, resisting the urge to grab it's ears like handlebars.

      So I hold on around it's torso. A slightly gruff but female voice says "Oi, don't touch my boobs!"
      Instantly my stereotypical British training takes over and I start apologising profusely. "I'm so sorry... I didn't even know unicorns had boobs..."
      "Where are we going?" The unicorn asks, starting to walk forwards.
      "Well, we were supposed to skewer people on your horn, but I guess we can't do that so... portal it is."
      I throw a hand out forwards, towards the far end of the street. A doorway of darkness forms with tiny stars beyond. As the doorway opens slightly further I can see there are now white clouds beyond. The unicorn starts to charge at the portal. I cling on. The portal starts to close. "No, open open open!" I widen the portal a bit but it is still trying to close. I wonder if we are going to make it. The unicorn doesn't see to want to go any faster, she won't be rushed.

      We squeeze through just as the portal closes. The floor is made of fluffy white clouds. Around us stand some angelic like figures who all have unicorn horns on their heads, which are rainbow coloured. They are gliding around without wings. Further off there are some bizarre rainbow trees stretching up to the sky.
      "We made it!"
      The unicorn trots forwards into this strange unicorn-heaven type place, and I wake up.

    9. You're a dreamer, Harry!

      by , 01-11-2016 at 11:59 AM
      I woke up in my room knowing that there's something unusual going on. I wasn't very tired and I had no problem with getting up from a warm and comfortable bed. I had posters on the walls in my room. That's weird, because I took them all down few years ago. I went to check if the lights are working, because I already knew I was dreaming but I had to make sure. Lightswitch didn't work, so I'm in. I was looking for a way to get into Hogwarts. It wasn't my main goal in this lucid dream, but I felt like it's the right thing to do. I turned left and saw a pretty weird closet. It had strings as long as itself, like a guitar or violin. I pulled some of those strings and played Harry Potter theme song. The closet opened. Within there was nothing else but a wand. My wand looked way more like a screwdriver than wand but I was able to cast Lumos with it. I turned the light on, and I saw a passage, right in that closet. I was a bit suprised how my subconsciousness constructed that tunnel because it looked like a cave with weird mushrooms and plants. That tunnel led straight to Hogwarts, to the main hall. There was Ginny Weasley going through the door and walking straight at me. I don't remember what we talked about, but she seemed nice. When we settled down and sat by the tables, Dumbledore came to our table and placed a sorting hat on my head. I was accepted at Gryffindor house. Yep, it was that quick! A moment later there was a dueling tournament in the same room. I had a chance to cast spells like Rictusempra, Expelliarmus, Stupify etc. I don't really remember who I dueled, but I'm pretty sure some of them were Dumbledore (who beat the hell out of me), Snape, all of the Weasleys and possibly Draco Malfoy. The only problem in this dream was that it all happened so fast and I didn't pay much attention on how lucid I am or how this all is happening inside my head. I forgot about that when I played my first quidditch match as a keeper. That's when I woke up and realized I could do much more in that dream. But hey, I'm not even mad, this was one of the most interesting lucid dreams.

    11. My first Lucid-Dream of 2016. LD

      by , 01-11-2016 at 10:36 AM (Come on, let's go for great nightlife adventures)
      I became lucid at the end of the dream.

      I am in the casino which is pink. I was walking between some bar and table and I see a guy that I know sitting on the bar. I do a sight with my head to say hello, and he does also. I go next to the entrance, and I see a couple of people, who I know, carrying chair in their hand and going outside. I decide to go back where I saw the guy. I walk but there is a man blocking the way, the man was asking a kid to not sit here, so the child stand up and now it is him who is blocking me. The man tell the child to walk because he is blocking the way. Finally the way was free. I walk then I descend the stairs, I'm now in a pink garage. There is 4x4 Nissan color black, behind and next, there are dark rooms. Under the car I see shadow moving, I said to myself; ''what that kind of s**t exist'' then the shadow transform into a big rat with red eyes. I got scare and run back on the stairs and I realize that I'm dreaming, I'm still running in the casino but the dream starts to fade, so I decide to spin around like a tornado but the dream is still fading. Now the dream is pitch black. I decide to run and I could feel my legs muscle contracting. After I woke up in a false awakening.

    13. Competition (lucid)

      by , 01-11-2016 at 06:54 AM (Dreamerino Journalino Ginino Sanino Manino Lucidinos in my Journalino Cappuccino Expressivo Crescendo Penguino Languini Amigo Panini Kapparino Lollerino Trollerino Rhinorino Hornerino Adventurino's Ferrarini Pepperoni Mozzarello Spiceroni Ninő Casinő)
      Tonoght I woke up 3 times to record/recall dreams, pee and to meditate for 15-25 minutes.

      I remember very little of the lucid dream, but I was sure that I was lucid and that I flew. When I woke up I was also sure that it lasted for at least 20 minutes and that I tried out a bunch of stuff but now I remember it like it was 5 minutes and I did pretty much nothing. That's unfortunate. Poor recall claims some point-victims.

      I got lucid in the first 2.5 hours of the night. (but not the rest of the night, there can only be one explanation... FAIRES!!) I was outside my house on the rooftops. I think I was on an inclined rooftop once, and I went from flat rooftop to flat rooftop. I landed in my neighbor's (Jan) backyard, but there was no interaction.

      Then somewhere I got in a house, my aunt and her 2 daughters came into the room and I greeted and touched them and I forgot to turn invisibility off (I don't know where this came from and I was probably not lucid btw so no points) and they got scared. I apologized and comforted my cousin.

      2 Non-lucid dreams I don't need to record to get the points. Plus they're boring.

      First lucid: 10 points
      Flying: 5 points
      WBTB: 2 points
      2 normal dreams: 2 points

      Total: 19 points

    14. 110116: Semi-lucid, Friend Breaks Into House

      by , 01-11-2016 at 05:34 AM (The Dream Journal)
      I'm in the kitchen at night. My laptop is on the kitchen table, I look outside through the window, I want privacy, is anyone out there? I close the blinds and head off to bed. I feel an odd stirring. Am I sleeping? I feel as if I'm leaving my body. I try to scramble to my bed, if I can get there I can keep this up and enter lucidity. (???)

      I hear a crash. I get up from my bed and now I'm in my childhood home. I see my old friend from school has somehow gotten in and he has two younger friends with him. They are all drunk. I ask him what does he think he's doing?!? My mom is going to call the cops immediately if she wakes up to this! He doesn't care, too drunk to really know what's going on. I think he is so drunk he has come here by mistake, he lives a floor lower. (he didn't in real life)

      I try to shoo them out but the enter the living room, my friend is in the process of passing out on the bed there. I get angry and frustrated at this whole thing, I try to put my foot down and get them to go. Right when I get my friend and the other young guy out, one of them has made his way to the balcony and is lighting a cigarette. I tell him to really leave now, this is absolutely unbelievable. He stares at me with drunk apathy trying to light his cigarette. He's pretty big and I know I can't force him to go physically. I leave, just muttering "unbelievable" under my breath.

      The other guy leaves and finally with all of them out I close the door and make sure it is locked. I pull on the door a few times to make sure. I see a whole crew of people are there sitting in the stairwell. I really don't want them there making noise but at least they are not inside the apartment. There is a window along the left of the door and I can see out of it (there wasn't one in real life) and as I look out I see they are all showing me the finger and laughing. I try to just make my way to bed.

      My mom didn't wake up and I suddenly see my sister there. She must have sneaked in. She isn't too drunk or anything. I tell her about Ale and stuff, I say his parents are so rich they rented the place under ours for him and he must have made a mistake. Our old cat is on my sister and she get up. I pet her and watch her walk around the mattress, I try to be gentle with her. I pet her and she walks towards my mom's bed.
    15. Hawaiian resort

      by , 01-11-2016 at 12:55 AM (My Dream Journal)
      I went to bed later than I usually do last night, and had lots of little dreams about realizing I am dreaming, and then having false awakenings. The only one I remember clearly is that I was at Pizza Ranch(my favorite restaurant) walking out to the car. I realized something strange about the situation, maybe that I wasn't planning on going to Pizza ranch for a while. I looked at my mom, and I realized I was dreaming. I then had a false awakening. This happened a few times, but I can't remember the other times very well.
      I was in the city, walking down the street. I saw a hotel resort thing that was supposed to be from Hawaii or something. I saw these bath/shower things in the hotel where you got massages during them. Also, I saw an aquarium with some turtles in it. I remember really wanting to go there. Sometime later in the dream, my dad, brother and I were in the hotel, making sandwiches in it, which was a fragment.
      I was in Walmart with my family, shopping for the trip that I just got back from. I got a giant thing of whipped cream. In the Bakery section, I recognized the worker as a Petco worker I see often. I asked her for a piece of cherry pie, and she gave it to me for free. (She gave one to my brother, too.) We were having a lot of trouble agreeing on snacks to bring on the trip. I wanted cake, and my brother and sister wanted chips and tortillas.
