    1. Trapping Team Zaheer

      Trapping Team Zaheer (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      The dream seems to fluctuate through many environments, mostly because I realize that I can teleport like how Goku does when putting two fingers to his forehead. Subconsciously, there are numbers that I think of that will allow me to transfer instantly from one place to another.

      “9” and “1” were the two that I was teleporting to frequently, but there were moments were willing myself to go to those locations would not work at all. There were two dream characters I had to be cautious around, Zaheer, and Ming-Hua. Apparently, I had to trap Zaheer in what could look like a Pandora’s box, maybe some kind of Covenant of the Ark-esque object that had a dark jade color to it. And I also had to lock Ming-Hua, who apparently isn’t armless in this dream at all.

      I recall her trying to force me into the same room I want to lock her in, and while she’s holding my hand so vigorously, I can look at her visage, and see that she’s very ambitious in taking me with her. Fortunately, I managed to gather enough strength to escape her grip, and I immediately shut the door, and braced against it with my back. Ignoring dream logic of how a dream character couldn’t open a door that could easily be destroyed if she just water-bended, I run away somewhere.
    2. 2014-11-19 work task, choke hold bully, blackjack

      by , 11-19-2014 at 10:56 AM
      + CEO (N.) JH calls me and one other guy into a meeting. I move to shake his hand and introduce myself but he leaves me hanging and does not take my hand, he already knows my name and says it, introducing me to the group. He says I'm here to solve the problem that nobody else has been able to solve, it's either a problem with the hardware or the driver. I don't feel confident, these guys here surely know the driver much better than I do. The problem must be fixed in just a few days, there's a (trade show?) coming up soon.

      In a cubicle area there are several desk/workplaces there one guy is working there, I'm trying to find a place to put my big fluffy coat, I don't see any coat racks, will I have to put it on my computer? Each workplace has one of every kind of computer, in particular a windows PC and a mac. It's better to use the mac because it has better diagnostic tools so finding the problem will be better, I see the computers on the desk and select the mac.

      There is an important public presentation/talk soon, I'm expected to go, the admin (a young man) says that formal wear is required. I ask about time/directions to the place.

      In the cafeteria, it's quite "fru-fru" with a private organic garden growing vegetables on an island table in the room, and a private gardener/chef overseeing it. The veggies are all really small, I put a teeny tiny radish in my mouth and chew. I see lots of bunches of little carrots. I ask them if they have any hot peppers, I don't see any.

      In some other place I'm thinking that solving this problem is really important for the company, the CEO may personally give me $1 million if I solve it. He may even give me $10 million, and I'd be set for life.

      (A number of other scenes with me being concerned that I have no clue how to solve this problem, and thinking about the reward)

      + I'm walking across a street I see/sense a bully up ahead is pursuing a scared boy to torment him. As a man it is my duty to stop this, I run after him and pursue him through a building and outside. I eventually catch up to him and grab him quickly putting him into a choke hold with my right arm. I gradually increase the constriction, pulling on my right elbow with my free left hand. He's not struggling much. At one point I feel him swallow. I am cheek to cheek with him for a while. At some point I let him go and realize we're both in our underwear, we find our clothes nearby, I see my white t-shirt wadded on the ground and pick it up.

      + I'm standing outside and my wife approaches and says to put the water into the car. I'm confused about what water she's talking about, I look down and see a 4-5 liter bottle of water, it looks kind of dirty, I ask her if this is the water she says yes.

      I see a dealer up close dealing a hand of blackjack, the player takes a hit and stands, the dealer has 14 and the player says something like "18 beats 14". I'm sitting at the table at extreme 1st base, almost around the corner with the dealer. My wife is in the middle of the table. We're playing a hand and some cards are on the table. The dealer recommends playing some special option cards that will greatly increase my winnings, by around $180. I've won a lot of money on this hand, I think you can win a lot of money this way. I say though "sometimes you can burn through your entire bankroll in just 10 minutes."

      + (f) in a large (cafeteria?) room with young people, a girl?

    3. stop messin' about!

      by , 11-19-2014 at 09:53 AM
      Coz I wasnae feeling very well, I forgot I was supposed to attend an SNP meeting on Tuesday evening - luckily my mind provided a dream of the event... (Non lucid)

      Walking back from the leisure centre I my home town. There was a lad next to me dressed in black. He asked if I was going to the SNP meet now. I said I couldn't really be bothered, but I may as well go and send my apologies. I noticed a clock on a wall. Then I was there, we started off in a big room where we were separated into two groups, I just missed out on being in the first group and everyone felt very smug for being first. As we were about to head through into another room, a lassie I fell out with IRL gave me a look of death. I said 'That's it, I'm going home' and I headed toward a billowing curtain to my left. One of the organisers called out 'Don't go, we don't need this kind of publicity' I said loudly and angrily that I never wanted to be in the first group. (even though I hadn't been) The organisers (all young lassies) denied that I had been , nad eventually we walked up the stairs to a bar. Two of my friends were there. One was dressed in a kilt and was very drunk. He asked if I wanted to go out for a fag, I said I would but he'd need to loan me one. We walked through a tunnel made of plastic, I was blethering a bit and pretending to be drunk. We reached the outside and it was the banks of the local loch. I lost one of my friends, and headed to some marshy ground. I noticed I had boots on and they were caked in mud. There was a woman with a couple of dogs. Then I saw a wee lad with a metal detector and across a channel another of my friends had one too. He found something, a long thin thing. Him and the wee lad wanted to investigate their discoveries and I found myself sitting in a sort of milkshake bar kind of place. I was sitting on a bench with two or three completely different friends again. We noticed the two items had writing written on silver bases. The first one had my friends name on it, and it turned out it was a few notes from a game he played in the past. To my left were the wee people. I turned to them and said 'Why don't you go and play with your Tamagotchi's?' They said they were finished. I said 'What - theyre extinct?'

      2 - In my shop as usual. One of my staff had just come in, and there was also a rather fierce looking woman with short white hair. Turned out she had worked in place of my staff on my day off and I was ready to sack her for that.

    5. #57 - vampirism

      by , 11-19-2014 at 04:29 AM (The Oneironaut's Odyssey)
      Black: Non-dream
      Blue: Non-lucid
      Red: Lucid

      Dream - Vampirism
      I seem to be some kind of vampire that can disguise myself by changing the colour of my skin. The world is similar to the series RWBY, and I'm infiltrating a Faunus hideout to drink their blood. I do this by changing my skin colour to green so they think I'm a Faunus too.

      Note:
      Kept falling asleep during SSILD cycles, eating a snack wakes me up more so I'll have to try find a decent midnight snack.

    6. Asian stores and Tiki bars

      by , 11-19-2014 at 03:26 AM
      I was at a Tiki bar underneath this gorgeous waterfall, I assume I was baby sitting because there was a girl around the age of 12 with me, her name was Tiffany. I got in my car and Tiffany and I drove to an Asian clothing store right across the street from the the Tiki bar and waterfall. When we entered the store it was filled with the most beautiful clothes (Japanese type of clothing, very cute) , I wanted them all so bad, telling myself I would eventually get them so I put back the clothes. Tiffany and I entered a grocery store which had been connected to the Asian store from the inside and then we ran into her parents, so we went around the store and eventually Tiffany and I left the grocery store and went back to my car. We ended up back at the tiki bar, and when I sat down at the bar I noticed Tiffany was no longer there, I didn't think much of it. The bartender guy (who happened to be this one tough guy that I go to school with) asked me why I was alone and I said, "I'm just waiting for my boyfriend" and he said, "Don't you have a nickname for him?", and I said, "Yes, I call him Jare bear, because his name is Jared." he then said, " Oh well my girlfriend calls me master." I then woke up from my dream, I found it funny because, this guy is an aggressive person so the "nickname" didn't surprise me.

    7. Did WBTB, two dreams, one lucid, loads of false awakenings

      by , 11-19-2014 at 02:26 AM
      non-dream dream lucid

      I slept a LOT today. I could literally explain my entire day in detail here.

      I entered the day in what seemed to be a black void. Well not really. I'd fallen asleep at my computer and when I woke up everything was black. When I uncovered myself everything was still black. Silent as well. The power was out and all the lights were off.

      I went to the living room up stairs and started listening to my radio. An hour later I did the unthinkable and went back down into the black void known as the basement cause my antenna is down there! I spent half an hour down there before coming back up and laying down, still listening to the radio.

      Ended up experimenting, practicing SSILD cycles with the radio on Didn't work out so well. Actually managed to get numb in some spots but it just didn't happen other wise.

      Ended up listening to the radio all the way until 7 or so, when the power came back on.

      Turned on my laptop and came here to just see what was up. Then came to the question of whether to WBTB or not. I ultimately decided to, so I started my clock and went to bed.

      Ended up waking up an hour before the alarm, so I thought "good enough" and went back to sleep, practicing SSILD cycles as I drifted off.

      And here's where the fun begins.

      -------------------------------
      The PILD
      Lucid: yes
      TGMG: potentially, but ultimately no.

      I am in my living room, playing an NES game. It looks like Mario but the levels are nothing like I've ever seen before. I have a few false awakenings before I realize something is up. So of course I get up and my room is more or less the same as IWL. I then walk out the door and into the back yard. And this is where things get different.

      I look at the area where the shed was and it's a rather large ruin of a shed that was painted white. I look around and there's a bunch of wood everywhere. I look down and there's a piece of wood in the ground that sounds like there could be something under it. I start to pull it up and I see a bunch of duffel bags in the hole. I climb in and I pull the duffel bags out of the hole, but the wood falls on the hole and there's a bunch of spiders on the wood.

      I just look out of the hole, occasionally grabbing the dirt in the opening before I stop caring and just push the wood away. I carry the duffel bags inside and I open them up to find a bunch of old clothes. They're all completely dry and they even smell decent. Among the clothes I also find a bunch of old school stuff - binders and whatnot. I open those up to find orange text from when I was a log younger.

      I put it away and I then find a bunch of gameboy games and SD cards. I look at the gameboy games. Lots of black cartridges that I have no clue what games are on them.

      The SD cards are also black. I grab them all and start stacking them. "Damn that's a lot of SD cards! Look how tall this stack is!" I don't remember how tall the stack was.

      I have another false awakening.

      I'm back playing the Mario game again! I'm in a very dark level. Well the background is completely black. There's brown Mario styled bricks on the ground and ceiling. I'm also listening to the sound. Sounds like a Mario game except its in stereo oddly enough.

      I continue running down this corridor until eventually the game starts acting weird. The audio goes mono and becomes a bit watery sounding. The graphics also change as the bricks become round stones and Mario becomes Fire peach.

      Ah ha!
      This must be a dream! I immediately become lucid, and realize that I'm playing this on my laptop. I get off and get up. I take care not to destabilize the dream. I look around, looking at how real everything looks.

      The house is more or less the same as in real life except some of the lighting is different. This is more apparent in the kitchen.

      Timmy comes towards me as I'm looking around and asks me whats up. I tell him "I'm dreaming!" and open the front door. I then open the real front door with telekinesis apparently (It was just open).

      Timmy asks me what I'm gonna do, and I tell him I'm going out side. I look out the door, stabilizing the dream. I then walk outside. I start to think "Well I'm dreaming! So what goals do you want to try and do?". I try and remember my lucid list but the only goal I can remember is the one where I shrink myself.

      By this time I'm on the outside porch, (more or less identical to IWL) and I look around. Everything is quite icy, but I don't feel cold. I raise my hands in the air and look up. I then shrink to about a quarter my size.
      Well that's one goal done. No bonus points cause all you did was run to the corner store

      I run off the porch and into the road. The road is quite icy. My brother starts following me as I get to the corner. I look down ecorse rd and I see it's a lot darker than IWL. More houses, and it seems to end in a straight turn to the right. The store down the svc drive looks more or less the same as it does IWL. I continue to walk down, looking down every street that I can.

      I eventually get to where the chicken place is, and I walk inside. This place is pretty much the same as IWL as well. I look around and there's a bunch of food on the back counter. I want to eat some but I think "What if I'm not dreaming?" so I run out.

      All of a sudden I walk up in my bed. I had a false awakening. I get up and everything is blueish. It almost feels as if someone else is in the room but I don't know it. I get up and float across the living room. I say "Jesus christ!", and then I plug my nose. Only to find out I can still breath when it's plugged. "okay this is a dream you don't need to be saying that".

      This next part is a bit of a blur. I definitely lost lucidity.

      I walk into this room that looks like something out of Half Life 2 and metal gear solid put together. There's a DC in there explaining the SD cards to me. He says that someone made the SD cards work like that intentionally to put you to sleep. They don't explain why though. I do learn how it works however. Each SD card has a few DOS games on it as well as a batch file to load them. If you load the games without any batch file, it puts you to sleep, but you don't realize you've gone to sleep. Some of the SD cards, particularly the one I was playing, with Mario, had the batch file tampered with so it acts as if it's not a batch file.

      I have this huge blue monitor to the left of me, and a tunnel that you could crawl through? in front.

      I am then playing this Sonic game where I'm being bounced all over the place with flippers in what seems to be a futuristic setting. Then I'm in a spindash tunnel. I get stuck in it, but I want to go another way so somehow I make my way back up, and I get myself into a launcher and try to get up the top tunnel. It takes a few tries. I don't remember what's on top.


      I wake up some time around here.
      I recall it's now around 11 or so.

      After this I'm incredibly tired, so I end up writing down a lot of things about the dream (go tired me ). I really hesitate though because of just how tired I am. I make lots of mistakes as well.

      Well eventually I end up going to sleep again where I had another dream.

      -----------------------
      The windy forest
      Lucid: no
      TGMG: no

      It's during the day time and I'm on a long road in the middle of the forest. No clue where this is but I do know it is quite windy, but not cold.

      There's no cars on the road and I never see any. I look up and the sky is overcast but it is quite bright out. Eventually the wind is so strong that I get picked up off my feet, and into the woods. I see a bunch of trees where I'm going, with water on the bottom. Obviously a swamp.

      I get close enough to a rather large tree and I grab on. It's too large for me to wrap my arms around but I am capable of holding on. As I'm holding on I get my first glimpse of the area. It's a swamp, with lots of large trees like the one I'm on.

      I start climbing up the tree until I get to a large branch. I climb on and sit down. Now I look around fully and I see a swing-like thing made out of tree trunks. There's also a bear laying down on it!

      I watch it for a moment. The bear is swinging back and forth on the branch.

      I look up the tree and I see a yellow rope laying down. I look up to where it's coming from and I see an incomplete bridge. It's made of wood and there's a odd black thing coming off the incomplete end. I grab the rope and start climbing up it.

      As I'm climbing I realize that I don't need much grip to stay on. I could get away with just holding it in my fingers and it would be fine.

      I eventually climb to a branch really close to the bridge. I grab hold of the bridge and I see it swaying back and forth. I then see a DC on the bridge. A female park ranger? They take the rope and throw it to me from the bridge. I climb on and I then see a toolbox the DC has. They're here to fix a bit of the bridge.

      They ask for help, and I start helping them. So they go into their toolbox and start grabbing small screws. Really really small. They then start screwing them into random bits of wood.

      They ask me to do the same so I get a screw and put it into the side of one board on the wall. I can't get it in though! So I try and get it in again. This time it works.

      By now its night time, so the DC thanks me and leaves. I'm alone now so I just get up and walk the path beyond the bridge. I the
      n wake up.


      Once I wake up I'm still really tired.
      Over the course of writing this DJ, I fully awoke and now I feel fine.

    8. So close I'm thinking

      by , 11-18-2014 at 10:34 PM
      Still recovering from my bug so I had a very early night..

      3 Dreams , all non lucid, but the first two were extremely vivid and packed with detail....

      1) In a van. My Granddad was driving. I was observing the landscape. There was a big hill covered in uniform looking grey rocks. There was a wall around the hill. As we got closer it was obvious that the hill had recently been cleared of trees. We then started driving through a huge forest (at least by Scottish standards!) It was mainly Scots Pine. I remarked 'This is a very pretty road.' My Granddad took a while to reply and I wondered if he had heard, but then he said, slightly grumpy 'There are a lot of nice walks around here.' We then drove into a large square area of waste ground. There was a structure to the right with an electronic device attached to the wall. The place looked very familiar (I'm not sure if its from real life or another dream) . I found myself standing beside the building with a friend and his daughter. There were two r three scruffy children running about, they annoyed me somehow. My friend exited right and I looked at a structure to my left. There was a big screw in a pole which I pulled out and went back to my friend to show him.

      2) A couple I barely know IRL came into the shop and ended up leaving with four big bags of kilt related goodies. He left and his wife tried to pay. The total was Ł835, but I said Id do it for Ł800. It took about six tries using the credit card machine, I either kept entering the wrong total or pressing the wrong buttons. I got it right eventually and she decided to go for a drive with me. We ended up under a bridge next to a wee pond. There was a crystal clear burn beside us and I remember looking into it trying to spot fish, but there wasn't any. To my right was a black rubbish bag, it was slightly open and was full of clothes. I looked at the top item, it was a white t-shirt with 'World best Mum' written on it and a rainbow printed above it - what a bizarre detail! We then started walking on weeds in the middle of the pond, we never got wet or sanl which should have been a giveaway !! Two people appeared to our left, they were looking for frogs.

      3) I pulled up in my car to find that my neighbour had built a small wall in front of an existing wall. It was about two foot high and had a purple feature inserted into it. I then saw one of my neighbours at her front door. She had changed her hairstyle into a tight perm and had tinted it yello for some reason...

    9. Cutting Fruits and Vegetables / Trouble at Sea

      by , 11-18-2014 at 10:26 PM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I was looking at a table. A woman was cutting vegetables/fruits, and then she wipes them to a white trash bag, explaining that it's the same (?). Eating or doing something is the same as making the effort of cutting the fruits/vegetables and then just throwing them. I'm unclear what she meant about eating or doing.

      I was looking at a phone's screen. Facebook? I was looking for good wallpaper. There were green-themed ones.

      I was at sea. There was a battle. Or rather, it's years after the battle and people are experiencing a peaceful time. But trouble is brewing. "I" was an old man (in third person). I was giving counsel to the people (one at a time, groan). Something came up. A fight?

      A battle at sea. Underwater. I think this was before the peaceful time.
    10. Dreams Sat night/sun morn

      by , 11-18-2014 at 10:21 PM
      I had a bug or something on Saturday night/ all sunday - so heres an interesting catchup

      Non lucid

      In my dream I couldn't sleep - which is a new one for me! I took a seat in a communal sitting area in our 'house' (Cant be much of a house if it has a communal sitting area!) A man entered the room, he was late middle aged, a bit weedy and wore glasses. He said Hello, said he knew me as he'd spoken to my neighbours and sat down. We talked for a while about Spain. ..... Gap..... One of my friends IRL was in the room as well. He was asking how my business was going. I was having a wee moan to him, but was distracted by my wife blethering on out of view (things happening out of my vision is also new for me in dreams) she appeared and stood beside us. The doorbell went. Because it was late we were a bit worried. I asked my friend if he would come with us, he said 'Yes' - but didn't! Me and my wife went to the front door. A metal stepladder was in the way, and I had a job moving it. I opened the door and a very large oldish man with white hair was there trying to sell me something. I called him an 'arse' and he burst through the door and hit me across my back. I stumbled a bit and called him a 'C***' He said 'Did you just call me a c***???' he then smacked me across the face. It all went bizarre. I grabbed his hands in turn, snapped all his fingers and ate his hands... I don't recall how he reacted - if at all! I went and found the first man, he was hiding behind a chair. I vomited the contents of my 'meal' in front of him- it looked like mashed fruit. I got very little reaction from him. The big scary man was in another room I couldn't see him abut I heard him talking to my friend 'You're not exactly blameless in all this' he said 'I suppose not' my friend said.

      I woke up, feeling VERY sick, and it took my a while to fall asleep.

      The only other dream I recall is a fragment where I was talking to a friend and the more he talked the sicker I felt, and I was getting really angry with him...

    11. Mission/Evil Man Bird

      by , 11-18-2014 at 06:10 PM

      Dream 1

      I had a long dream where I was with a group of people trying to accomplish a mission. Forgot mostly everything though.

      Dream 2

      Something I don't recall happened. Than I was eating Louisiana crunch cake. I wasn't satisfied with just a piece of it so I kept going back for more.After that someone told me I had to go somewhere. I found something about it odd so I was aware it was a dream.
      I left my house with the DC and told it to open a portal somewhere. The DC didn't really want to though.

      The next thing I recall happening is going on a trip with a crowd of people. We went to a place like a arena but inside a huge auditorium. Supposedly a movie was going to be shown. I forgot my book bag though and went out to look for it.
      As I was walking around I felt the atmosphere and mood was tense. I looked back and realized it was a dream and all those DCs were in a trap.

      The announcers began talking to the crowd about how the show was about to start. I was walking pretty fast out the doors but a couple of guards saw me and brought me back to where the arena was. The beast was than released and DCs began screaming and running all around. Inside me I knew it would be wrong to run so I decided to face the giant yellow and Orange colored bird.

      As the bird was gobbling up lots of DCs I ran and flew up to it trying to punch and kick it. But the beak was too huge. The bird started chasing me around even more now so I decided to use my fingers to shoot a flaming ball at it. I charged it up flying backwards as it came at me and released the flame at it. The flame ball missed though and exploded on the ground. I tried charging another one but my powers weren't working.
      I tried to squeeze out the walls and windows but couldn't either. So the bird cornered me.

      I kept walking back thinking of a time to strike a attack. But I could see the bird was now changing into a man who now yelled the fight was over and he won. I wasn't ready to give up though so I jumped and punched him a couple times in the face. I than ran out because I could feel my control was diminishing.When I got outside I appeared on a nice looking street than ran into a subway stairs. I appeared in a huge formal bathroom where there were lots of anime and non anime characters around.

      I looked in a mirror and noticed my hair was a poofy dark blonde and tried to change it. It turned light blonde than to jet black.I asked the DCs if I looked Okay and they all said no. I looked into the mirror again and saw my face had a lot of colorful make up on it. A DC girl told me not to worry though cause that wasn't my real look. I said i wanted to make it right though and poured water on my hair to see if it would work.
      One of my old friends walked in and saw me and I jumped back and tried to hide using a anime guy that was near me. They laughed at how foolish I was acting.I than looked at the DC's shoes for some reason and noticed they had names on it. Than I woke up.

    12. 11/16: Bedtime Meditation: Spacious Awareness and Falling

      by , 11-18-2014 at 05:22 PM (Threecat's Dreamtime)
      I lie down for bed and meditate. I had previously meditated for a longer sit, and so lying down I found my mind almost entirely quiet. When thoughts did arise, they were little whispers that did not distract me. I eventually become aware of a change in my breathing; it is deep and regular, which indicates the onset of sleep. I feel very aware, however; not very tired.

      My awareness expands and feels more like a plain or vista than being trapped in my head. I sit like this for some time, not thinking about anything. I then realize I need to go to sleep soon. I roll over (my normal position) and feel my awareness fractured (more thoughts now, but still fewer than normal). I feel myself falling asleep, but have the sensation of falling, from which I recoil and wake up fully.

      Currently wondering if it would be possible to rest within the sensation of falling, in order to fully appreciate it and become familiar with it.

      *sigh* Last night was pretty intense... while I've had (MUCH) worse nightmares, I woke up really scared.

      So I was running around what seemed to be an abandoned neighbourhood. I was extremely paranoid, was really sure someone was following me. Finally, I saw this house that was familiar to me. I entered it. The windows were huge (in fact, most of the walls were made of glass), so I kept throwing myself on the floor and behind tables and sofas just so that I could "hide". I wasn't really me, though. I was two people: a guy, who was all by himself; and a girl, who lived at that house and wanted to find her brother. I kept changing, sometimes I was him, sometimes I was her. Somehow, that made sense.

      While I was there, I kept getting my "stuff" ready: taking food, clothes and whatever else I could find that seemed important, like a first-aid kit, knives, bats and shovels to protect myself... then, I saw a group of "things" outside and hid. I was the guy, then, and suddenly I was a leader of my own group, who were all in the living room with me and hiding too. The "things" outside were supposed to be zombies, I think. But they were very much alive, they could talk and everything.

      While we were all hiding, the door opened and we all just froze. But it was the girl's brother. I was happy, even though by then I was just the guy and was no longer the girl too. So we all got together and realised we had to move. So we left the living room and the house turned into some sort of museum. And we could hear the "creatures" behind us. And then they were also in front of us. We were at this very weird, small corridor. It was actually a vertical corridor, separating two rooms. We shut the doors and started freaking out, since we couldn't go back, couldn't go forward and they'd find us sooner rather than later.

      There was a window really high, so we decided to climb up and run away through it. I went first, as the leader. As I opened the window, I could hear a meeting of the creatures. They were kind of having a cult. I realised we were right next to a building of theirs and they had soldiers around the whole perimeter. One of them saw me and offered me a chance to join their cult and be one of them.

      I let myself fall on my back and told myself "I give up. There's no point in living anymore and I want to die now". I never fell on the floor, my body was floating, but moving backwards, and I was followed but nothing but whiteness. I felt light and I knew I had died.

      I woke up scared as hell. This was NOT even that scary, considering the dreams I usually have, but... for some reason, I woke up completely freaked out. It took me almost an hour to fall asleep again because my heart was racing.

      I fell asleep again and now I was in this weird... place. It was like a city, I think. Everything was destroyed. There were people starving on the streets. I had a friend with me (no idea who he was, but I trusted him) and we knew we had to go to another place. We found my car. We got in really fast, but there wasn't enough fuel inside of it. Two guys showed up and told us they could help us. We didn't want to talk to them, but they kept trying, telling us we could use the electric part of the car to make it work. Which makes no sense. However, in the dream, it totally worked. So, the only thing they asked in return was for us to take them with us, because one of the guys was looking for his daughter. He was old already, so his daughter was already an adult, but he hadn't seen her ever since she was a child. Since my friend and I didn't have a destination, we just wanted to get the hell out of there, we accepted it.

      After a while, I was walking on my own. No idea how that happened. I found lots of dead people everywhere, they looked terrible. As if something had eaten their skin from inside. There was a lot of blood too, as if they had pissed and pooped all of their blood. One of them was the guy's daughter, I was sure of it. As I looked around, I learnt (no idea how) that she had gotten sick and died in nine days. For some reason, I knew the guy was sick too, so I had to find him because I knew he had very little time.

      As I was running, I ended up in another town. It was a crazy place. There were lots of buildings where navy people would stay for a couple of days and everybody was there for either sex or drugs (or both). I kept looking for the old man to tell him about his daughter. A woman stopped me and told me I could leave my backpack at her place. I think she was a prostitute, but she wasn't trying to seduce me or anything, she was honestly being nice. So I thanked her and left my things with her.

      I got at the end of the "avenue" (on one side of it, there were only buildings; on the other, it was the ocean) and I knew I wasn't supposed to be there, but I saw my friend keep going, so I did the same and it was fine. But then, I entered another type of museum. There were bathrooms there, but they were kinda in the open. Still, I had to pee, so I went there. I sat down and put my hand in front of me, so that the guard couldn't see that I didn't have a penis. He was suspicious of me and wanted me to leave immediately. I got up fast and left. I went out again and the old man was too sick and dying.

      Woke up, fell asleep again. Fragments:

      I had to run away and I was in my car. I kept driving around cause I was a bit lost. I found my family. My dad wanted to drive the car even though I was the one driving. I got mad. There was also some weird stuff about a field on fire.

      I was at this apartment that I dream about all the time. It looks a lot like my grandma's. My parents were there and we had to go fast because... I dunno, random emergency. It was serious and we had to run away. So I was packing my stuff. My dad showed up and he was like "we gotta go, I'll take your backpack already" and I freaked out cause I still had more clothes to take with me. I told him to take that one and I'd be there soon. My dad said okay and left. My mum found me and started complaining about the clothes I was taking with me. I told her it was the apocalypse, not a fashion show, and I just wanted to be comfortable. She was still complaining.

      And that was it.
    14. A Writing Task

      by , 11-18-2014 at 04:18 PM
      Morning of November 18, 2014. Tuesday.



      Once again I am back in school, possibly Mr. F’s fifth grade classroom, but the setup is a little different and the teacher is unfamiliar. The directional orientation is a little more like a fourth grade class I had, in some ways. I am aware of best friend Toby T but I am the only student that remains in the classroom at one point. Still, there are open books on most of the desks. Apparently, the teacher (female and about twenty-five) has given me extra time to finish a writing task, which is to be a short story about five pages long, handwritten on sheets of plain notebook paper. There is absolutely no awareness of modern technology at any point in my dream.

      A new dream type has become more viable recently (though likely temporary). It involves clearer writing within the dream state and interestingly, is not as frustrating as when reading a book in a dream (especially a longer book that eventually makes me overly tired after waking - more tired than if I had not slept at all), even though I have to read what I write both as I am writing and after.

      The story slowly comes into development. I write about events as if they were occurring in a comic strip world and over time, there is at least one person that is stealing words from comic strip balloons, sometimes until the speech balloons are actually empty. The detail is fairly logical (in the order of sentences and descriptions in my story) with my writing not distorted (at least in grammar or spelling) but I do not recall my story that well. One scenario has someone using a bullhorn to somehow “protect” his speech balloon or make it “stronger” but that does not work.

      After awhile, the person actually starts taking the entire speech balloons with some sort of walking-cane-like hook, similar to the Vaudeville gag where a giant hook removes people from the stage. He stores them in a locked otherwise empty room somewhere, stacking them against the wall like small sheets of plywood. It seems I have some illustrations (done by another student possibly or perhaps from a school textbook as an ELA writing prompt) that helps me enhance my story. The illustrations are taped to the top of a few of the five different pages, and every other page.

      I am concerned about finishing the story, but I focus more in-dream and seemingly finish it. I do not awake feeling tired, either, regardless of my in-dream focus required to actually write without it changing when looking back. The teacher stays in the classroom for the most part but we do not talk to each other much.

      The image that came up via Google was quite suitable but I probably would not tag it as precognitive (or in this case the term would be postcognitive since the drawing already existed).

      This dream seems to primarily be about my perspective of certain aspects of mainstream society (especially the televised media and pop culture); comic-strip-like, with much of what people say worthy only of being “pulled off the stage” as in Vaudeville.
