Dream 1 I'm at a party with Daryl. I feel like I've had this dream before. I'm after a cigarette. I get it off either Daryl or some other guy. I grab the cigarette and snap it in half. Daryl walks over to a female and asks if he can share her internet connection. She isn't too keen on doing so but decides to do it anyway. I soon realize that he doesn't need to borrow it off her, instead he can buy WiFi from here. I leave with Daryl and begin to smoke the half cigarette outside. My head starts to feel fried from the cigarette and I begin to act as if I've had a heavy trip or drunk. A security guard notices how I'm acting and questions me. I soon realize it's illegal to possess drugs. The guard grabs me and takes me away. We are now outside and head towards an area that has what looks like horse stables. I feel like I know what's going to happen to me, due to being here before. He puts me inside the stable and locks me away as if I'm in prison. There's a peep hole that I can open and close. I know I'm about to be torchered so I close the latch. The man comes to my stable and opens the peep hole. I see that he's holding a weapon. I look behind me and see that I have a choice of weapons I'm allowed to pick. I choose the knife, but soon realize it's not as big as I first thought. I think about the range of the knife knowing it sucks. There's two options on how to get out of the stable. 1 is to fight my way out or second is to control the dragon. With the dragon, I need to control its path and make sure I'm following the cloud. It's really hard considering the controls are weird. The controls are not WASD or arrows, it's random letters which make it hard to remember which is left,right etc. I think about going into the options section and try to change them to what I'm used too Dream Fragments 1. I see Kayley and she's with a new baby. It's a girl and I think to myself that she now has 2 girls, but soon realize that I'm mistaken and know that her first was a boy, so it's perfect for her. 2. I'm playing basketball and I'm trying to recreate a Micheal Jordan moment, which is attempting to score 5 points in 5 seconds. To start off I steal the ball off the opponent and score which takes under 1 second, but feels like 5 seconds. As I score I run back down to the other end of the court and leap into the air towards the back wall. I grab onto the back wall and hang from it. I do this to show off my athleticism. I now let go from hanging and run back towards the other end of the court but I notice that my shirt is too small for me. 3. I'm playing Heroes of might and magic V. I'm trying to upgrade my soldiers but I can't seem to do it.
- I was in an unknown bedroom with a fireplace, it was dark outside. Apparently i didn't like being there because i left the house and i remember trying to get in at midnight through the chimney. - I was in a city with my sister, we were waiting for the bus to arrive in front of a park. I find my uncle there and i lose sight of my sister. - I'm in some kind of ruin, it's on the face of a cliff, and i'm trying to solve a puzzle by touching stone tiles. I felt a piece move and click, and i realized i had to be careful of a sleeping bear nearby. - I'm playing a videogame as a gunner-girl in some kind of victorian town, but it ends quickly and i wake up. My body feels pretty heavy so i thought maybe it was SP, so i try a WILD while picturing the scene from that dream but i give up after 40 minutes as it seems i was too well rested after 9 hours of sleep
I was in some sort of hotel or college doing parkour. I passed a few pools and then hung out with Laurie. We were with Aiyanna going to a party and some security guard started frisking me and giving me trouble. I was about to fight him but he backed down. Suddenly, the government called a state of emergency and I ran up to my apartment, telling Laurie to meet me there. I got chased but managed to evade the guy and go into the apartment where I turned around and shot him. He pulled the bullet out of his forehead and said "You can only kill me with pepper spray," so I opened up a little bag of some cheap pepper spray, which he seemed to be used to. I reached for my belt to get my Phase IV but a girl showed up. I grabbed my guns and was gonna look for Laurie. I got into my old camry and drove off. I had found her and we were gonna go get supplies. I stopped at a gun store to have a long range scope put on my .22. I returned to the apartment and found a girl turning into a zombie in the bathroom. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was at a super market taking a police entrance exam. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was with a group of people that was together for some sort of training thing for a week. The teacher gave us all cups and we went outside, where it was raining. We had to go over a huge bridge so a few people swam but I went over the bridge, walking on the railings. The water was rising quick and I dove in but I slipped and hurt my hand. When we went back to the class, we picked different cups and I wanted to get chosen as leader. We went outside and started flying. Some girls took something of ours and we started fighting in the air. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Someone had broken into a home of mine at night because I had left the garage door open while I went out. I hunted them down in the house with my Remington 870. which still had the bacon sticker on it. I found the kids but they turned out to be cats.
9/14/2014 Woke up at like 9am not remembering my dream. Decided to try some binural beats. Popped my earbuds in and went to sleeping, Felt all tingly as usual and fell asleep. Woke up an hour later, didnt remember a thing. Retried, felt tingly, then suddenly I "woke up" but I SWEAR I was conscious the whole time, 20 minutes passed. Then I tried for the final time. I felt it! I was FALLING into a dream! It felt like I was falling backwards, felt butterflies in my stomach, though "THIS IS IT I'M GOING IN DEEP!", it felt like a rapid slide show was going on in front of me, but the pictures were just blackness, some really dark grey. Heart was pounding and all I saw was blackness, then nothing, I guess I woke up in half-sleep paralysis. I could barely open my eyes, I was suuuuuuuuper heavy, but I managed to get my torso up and out of bed. I laid back down and just moved all my body as much as I could to wake myself up, and then I went on with my day. Was that an OBE I just had? I felt super heavy and everything felt weird. My dad said he had an OBE while using binural beats, so maybe I did too? This isn't the first time I suspect myself of having an OBE.

I was in some sort of junkyard at night playing with Desirae's boobs. They felt good so I didn't it for a while until I noticed that she didn't have a head so Laurie and I planned on burying her. After. I was playing a computer game that was a combination of Sid Meier CIV 5 and Command and Conquer Generals. I was playing online with people but I didn't realize it until we started attacking each others bases. -------------------------------------- I was on a NM highway where there were a few cars and mountains in the distance. To the left, there was a building and I was going down a hill. I was going so fast that I had to slam the brakes to slow down. ----------------------- I was in a city with a river flowing through the middle of it. I was with Nathan and the Strogg from quake started invading. I had a black, large caliber pistol and a few magazines. The belt I had didn't have a holster but the belt itself could be used as one. I adjusted the belt like the one I have in the waking world. I killed a few Strogg even though they were hard to kill, eventually getting split up with Nathan. I looked for him and a specific street. I asked an APD cop where it was but at first they ignored me.
I was at some sort of school campus with some students. We were talking about something and I was looked up on by the team. We had a swimming competition and everybody but me and 2 other guys didn't make it. We were supposed to swim up against a tide and I had the idea to grab onto a rail and swim up while using the rail for assistance. After we finished, I walked around and talked to people.
I was playing counter strike but the game had battlefield-like mechanics. I was flying an anti-air tank and shot down a few jets. I went up a ladder and used a rocket launcher on some enemies. I laid down on an enemie's bed and he got mad and killed me with a chainsaw. I was then waiting on my results for my clearance. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I was walking through a suburban neighborhood at night with Nikki. Nikki escaped and I chased her, looking into a few houses. Some of the houses were empty, some with only a few things in them like couches. I saw one of Laurie's friends and I also knew that I was at the apartments where I live. I came up on my sister and she had just bought a horse. There was a small reunion going on and I saw Amy and helped her with her computer, which I started playing after I fixed it. I played Halo: Combat Evolved and even though it was laggy, I still played it. There were a lot of new things in the game and it eventually changed to X-Men on an island surrounded by water and I was trying to kill some things that looked like robots. They grabbed me but I was able to escape. I tried killing them several times but didn't succeed. I was having a hard time escaping them so I Blinked through the map. My dream ended shortly after in a Walgreens. We were talking to an Asian man that knew how to defeat the robots and help us win. All we had to do was go to the top of a radio tower in India.
I was in the area around the apartments driving. There were colleges or something and I kind of knew I was dreaming. ------------------------------------- I was at a beach with a lot of people. I had my lancer and I was getting some brakes on it and I remember dreaming about writing down my dream, which was much longer than I remember.
I was lucid for a very long time this night. I prevented the dream from collapsing no less than 7 times. It seemed to get most unstable during sex. At one point I came to the top of a cliff and over to the right side was a waterfall. It was pouring over a cliff that ran parallel to the one I was on. Some DCs were base jumping off of the cliff into a lake below. It is a narrow lake as another cliff is only a few hundred feet across the lake. The colors are fantastic and the cliffs are very high. The whole effect is surreal and a bit breathtaking. I for some reason thought part of TOTM was to call another member of DV and tell them about the dream you are having. I pull out a cell phone and give Gab a call. A pleasant female voice answers and we have a short conversation in which I tell her I am about to jump off this cliff. I then jump off and free fall for a while and plunge into the white water created by the falls. I am now down many feet below the surface and the water is kind of green. I decide to try and breath in the water, and it works great. I decided to stay under water and imagine that the current will take me on a fun ride. Suddenly the current pulls me down stream and it takes me through a cyclone effect and dumps me out over a drop off into a pool. The dream went on for a long while after this, but it was pretty standard things.
14.09.2014September 14th, 2014 Fragments (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I had an office for my business and I was planning to look for a new office because apparently, mine was located in a dangerous neighborhood. I drove with my wife there and I could see my office from the car. It was upstaris and it had a gray door without even a name. It looked on the outside like a "weird" business, if you know what I meant, as just a poorly working light was above the door. From here, something related to my cats -- A shaman was performing healing on me and he was peeling (literally) layers of bad energy from it.
Ritual: I got fed up with the dry spell I've been having for the past couple weeks and took drastic measures. Back in 2010 I experimented a couple times with nicotine (in patch form) as a lucidity trigger, but quickly gave it up because I found it impossible to fall asleep with even a very low dose (half a 7mg patch, so 3.5mg). These days my problem—and the main thing hampering my lucid attempts—is that I've been falling asleep way too easily, so I thought there would be a good chance I'd be able to fall sleep wearing the patch and see if it had any effects on dreaming after all. Went to bed at midnight, woke naturally at 3:30am and stayed awake until 5am, mostly reading, but finishing the WBTB with a brief seated meditation. I googled to make sure using nicotine patches well past their expiration date was advisable, but was reassured by what I found. So I took 200mg L-Theanine to make it easier to fall asleep, and applied a 7mg patch with half its surface covered, so 3.5mg total (though the dose might have weakened with age). I also worked on my mental motivation, not just intending but vowing to get lucid tonight. When I returned to bed I felt my heart beating faster than normal, though I wasn't sure if it was the nicotine (if so the patches must be exceptionally fast acting, because this was only minutes later) or just a consequence of the excitement and anxiety of trying something new. The feeling reminded me trying to fall asleep on galantamine, which also has a very powerful stimulant effect. However, I started counting and was reassured (and somewhat surprised) when I began to lose my place already by the time I hit "ten." I reset and kept counting, rarely making it as far as "ten," and often not past "one," until I felt my mind had reached a place where I could easily fall asleep, then turned on my side to do so. I fell asleep very quickly, although my intention to remain aware of the transition went nowhere—I just zonked out. I woke up almost two hours later with the memory of a DILD and least one FA. The dreams were definitely atypical in tone: the plot was epic and confrontational, which I attribute to the nicotine. The dream awareness was spontaneous rather than triggered, but the lucidity was at very low level. Worse, my dream recall was unusually vague and fragmentary. DILD: The dream had a complex narrative that I can't satisfactorily recall. The most notable aspect was that my husband was in it and my dream logic concluded that it was a shared dream and that he was actually there and trying to learn the ropes of lucidity from me. We were trying to summon spirit allies, and he wanted a gryphon. The first version looked cartoonish, reminiscent of the monsters from Where the Wild Things Are, but it wasn't a proper gryphon. Neither were the next two, though they were massive, monstrous creatures that reminded me of the kinds of avatars you would summon in the later Final Fantasy games. When I summoned my own spirit ally, I was surprised to find that it was just a somewhat transparent virtual version of me. (Source: I think this was day residue, as last night in ME3 my Shepard came across the holograph AI of herself on the Citadel. The notion of iconographically incorrect gryphons might have been inspired by the poor versions I saw in the astonishingly bad—so bad it was almost good, I couldn't stop laughing—film version of Hercules I caught the last fifteen minutes of on cable yesterday evening.) I wish I remembered the plot of the dream more clearly. There was a group of entities that we were in conflict with, and they were insisting that I was breaking the rules of dream in some way. I disagreed, as I felt justified to do as I liked in my own dream, so I countered by exerting a massive field of control over the environment that made the ground shudder and shattered buildings. It wasn't quite an earthquake, more a gravity-reversing vibration: I have a mental image of dust and dirt rising and hovering in the air accompanied by an almost subsonic drone. It felt good to do this, powerful, though something of a guilty pleasure. (Source: I was sure there was a waking life source for this image of dust rising from the earth in the wrong direction but couldn't remember; now it occurs to me that it might have been from the movie Transcendence, which I saw last month.) At one point I had the presence of mind to wonder, or maybe someone asked me: was I actually hurting anyone by doing this? But I pointed out that you can't hurt DCs merely by disrupting their physical bodies, because the dream state does not have that kind of continuity. I demonstrated this by plucking my own spirit ally from deep in the rubble where she had been buried and reviving her. I might actually have remembered somewhere in all of this to try the Patronus TOTM, which had been my intention before falling asleep, but if so I don't recall the outcome, unless that was somehow connected with the idea of spirit allies. Too vague to be sure, unfortunately. FA: I woke up next to my husband and wondered if it had really been a shared dream, so I watched his reaction carefully. He gave me a look which led me to conclude that it had been. But before long it began to dawn on me that this might be a false awakening, and soon I was sure of it. I decided to review the events of the previous dream in my mind before I forgot, but as I was doing so, I became aware that my mind was interpolating new ideas, and whole new scenes were even taking place, spinning off from my memories of the previous plotline—this is the risk of reviewing dream memories while you're still dreaming! For instance, when I thought about our spirit allies, a girl showed up at the foot of the bed who I took to be a transformation of the gryphon in the previous dream, only now she looked human and very familiar. I tried to place her face and decided she resembled the character "Marnie" from Girls. Not sure where that came from, as I haven't watched an episode of that since the last season ended. Then when I was trying to remember the main plot, it became confused with a new plotline in which I was worried that war was imminent and that if it took place, the spirits of mythological creatures would fuse with nuclear bombs to create a weapon that was as devastating to dream as to the waking world. I was out trying to investigate and prevent this outcome, and found myself in the house of people who had melee weapons shaped like real or imaginary animals. One was a rod with a sculpted head shaped like the head of an animal that mingled the qualities of a lizard and a single-horned rhinocerous. Another was a club shaped like a narrow stylized boar, and while my husband was handling it, I noticed that it could also be fired like a crossbow. Again, very random imagery. Conclusion: I would call this a partial success at best, as the low-level awareness and limited recall made the overall experience less than satisfactory, and I didn't actually succeed in doing the TOTM that was my original goal. Still, breaking my dry spell by any means is reassuring. It definitely felt like nicotine had an effect on dream content, and I attribute the unusually "epic and confrontational" quality to its influence. However, after waking up I felt almost as uncomfortable and unrested as I do after using galantamine, so while I might experiment a little more along these lines, I will not be making this a frequent induction method—which is probably for the best, nicotine bad and all that.

Third Dream I recall being with my sister and nephew in a house. We were talking about something and I think it was about food. There was a party going on inside the house and a lady I know was handing out french fries. But I saw one had a huge spot of fungus on it so I didn't eat it. I walked around till I stumbled upon a little boy under a rocking chair. I told him if he didn't get out from under there he would get hurt but he shouted at me that he was going to stay there. Suddenly a huge drilling machine started drilling my head. I got up mad, thinking I was going to die. I saw a man calling for his son and told him his son drilled my head with a machine. The man scolded his son after that and I left. I met up with my older sister who was talking with two other guys. I joined in on the conversation but out of no where my phone started playing Japanese music. We all started to laugh at how random that was. Than the scene started to change a bit. I walked to a seat with someone and noticed to my side there was a boy and a girl who kept insisting the boy to have it with her. He told her no at first but she wouldn't leave him alone. I got mad at her and told her to leave the guy alone but she told me to mind my own business. She came up to me so I jumped on the chair(Since she appeared to be getting taller). I grabbed her hands and twisted her fingers than let go. After that I leaped off the chair and she changed to a little girl. She started shouting at me to leave her alone so I left. I walked into a school room where I think people were napping. I thought they were dead at first so I left the room rather quickly. When I left I saw a group of boys who were choosing which of my younger brother's things to take. I told them not to take my brother's stuff but they didn't care so they kept moving tables and other stuff. One of those things was a police officer book and a table that looked like it had a flat layed out stone on the top with writing on it. I ignored it though cause I wanted to fix my hair that was messy and wanted to get a drink from the water fountain. However, a boy came out of no where and started to hump me from the back. I screamed at him than pushed him back but he just jumped on my back again and started laughing. So I pushed him than he shrank into a doll I think so I threw him. I was so mad/embarrassed that I told him I was going to write a poem and write about how stupid he was. So I looked for a paper on the ground and started fixing a poem by erasing a part I didn't want. Than I woke up.
I am a small duck dressed in a trench coat and sunglasses. I am a bounty hunter, and am after some guys hanging out inside a night club. It is daytime outside My awareness is positioned outside of my body. I enter the club, and exit carrying some stuff I stole from them. I then get into the car I own in WL, where my awareness now enters my body. I am trying to back up, when one of the thugs moves his car to box me in. I turn the wheel hard, ride up and over the car beside me (not possible at all in WL) and in the process, tear the head off of a thug who was trying to climb in through the back window. I become lucid, as this is ridiculous and could never happen in real life. I continue driving my car down the street. I am now driving down some hallways (almost like I am in the back of a kitchen or something) and I realize the car is gone. I think to myself, Oh, I'm running now but then have a flash of insight--I'm not doing anything--I'm lying in bed. I also realize I have no body and really haven't had one for quite some time. Furthermore, as I am dreaming, there is really no reason to get a body anyway. At this point, I decide to test my bodiless-ness and pass through a set of push doors. I bang my forehead against the door, and then just raise my hand and open it! I remember my discussion with dutchraptor and Sensei about pain in dreams, and realize that--as usual--I do not feel any pain from knocking myself in a dream. I reach an open area, where I am looking down at a helipad. The helipad is about forty or fifty feet below me, and there are numerous helicopters on the ground, propellers spinning. I think that I might jump down into one of the propellors, but then change my mind, as I really have no wish to test being chopped up (dang it!). Instead, I decide to use this high point as a jump off for flying. I leap into the air, but just fall (very swiftly) to the ground. I hit the ground and then fall down on my butt. I now stand up, look around, and just lift into the air. I fly higher and higher, really not even trying now to do anything, and travel perhaps several hundred feet into the air (that's advanced, right!? ). I then look around, and my body begins to fall. I am momentarily scared, but then remember that I'm not really doing anything, nothing is happening, and there is nothing at all to worry about. I relax, and just hang in mid-air. I then accelerate upwards again. As I am thinking these things, I realize my body is moving of its own accord, flying this way and that. I think this is kind of neat and just observe my body flying. I then relax again, and I this must trigger something with my WL body because I wake up. On a side note, this dream has caused me to think more about meditation in dream, and has prompted me to concentrate more on my daily practice of sitting, as well as begin to integrate sitting more into my dream practice.
1. I was inside of a huge building, and the interior was decorated with a dark yellow carpet and bright yellow walls. Immediately I became Lucid. I walked over to a table where I saw my friend Brittany from school and talked to her. I remember asking her what she was doing here and what she was up to. Suddenly a cute, tall, redhead came over to our table and joined our conversation. I could tell an instant change in the vibe Brittany was giving off, it was like she hated this other chick. I complimented the redhead on how she looked and she thanked me. I then realized that I was getting off track, and that I needed to stick to my dream plan, so I started thinking about what I wrote down as my dream plan of the night. Then I remembered, I was supposed to meet up with this DC girl that I really liked. After I remembered what I was going to do I looked at Brittany and right as I was going to tell her that I had to leave, she purposely got a glass of water and splashed it all over her breasts. I really didn't want to fall prey into this situation, but my animal instincts started kicking in, and Brittany looked irresistible. The fact that she knew what she had just done turned me on even more, and I found it impossible to leave(sorry for all of this weird stuff lol, once again, just recording it for recall purposes). I decided to stay(of course), so I went up to Brittany and I started taking her bra off, but as I did I started focusing on myself too much and woke up(I know how to fix this from happening, so it won't happen anymore praise god). I woke up in my bed and lied there for about half a minute, just thinking about the dream. After 30 seconds, I slipped back into the dream, in the exact same building. I immediately walked to the exit of the building and while doing so I expected the DC girl that I like to be there. As I came up to the exit and opened the door, she was there. She looked more beautiful than ever, more perfect than perfection itself. We hugged each other tightly, and it felt so great. Suddenly, my mom called out my name. I looked across the street next to me and saw her and the rest of my family in the car(At this point, I lost my lucidity). (Will log the rest of the NLD part later)
9/14/2014 10:30 AM Unsettling Last night/early this morning I had two FA’s in a row. They were both a bit disturbing. 1st FA: I woke up in my room and did a nose check. When it passed I didn’t really believe it since my room was very clear, I hadn’t felt any vibrations, and I could see and feel my entire body. Since my family was asleep I didn’t want to do anything stupid, so I decided to walk downstairs. I definitely knew it was a dream when I walked down my hallway. There were things in there like boxes that didn’t belong in my house. As I walked a flashlight beam shone in front of me, as if I was wearing one of those helmets. Once I got downstairs I saw my dad sleeping on the couch. I did a type of pounce/moon jump in front of him. Next thing I knew I was back in my bed again, falling asleep. A really giant whooshing noise went into my ears and just wouldn’t stop. I tried to close my eyes and create a new dreamscape, but instead just had another FA. 2nd FA: I “woke up” again to my room being very realistic. I did a nose check which passed and immediately afterwards looked down at my feet (and in the process squishing up my blanket). My legs and entire body were there. I tried to float and create a new dreamscape but neither worked. I then walked downstairs. My living room, for some reason, was in the morning daylight. My parents were downstairs eating a box of something and arguing over if I was asleep or not. One of them said “she’s right there” while the counter to that was “no, she’s in her REM cycle”. At first I didn’t say anything, but then I remembered that it was a good thing to speak to dream characters. I then said “I’m awake” in a calm tone and both of my parents turned into dark figures. They threw the black box at me, but I didn’t feel it hit me or anything. I then went downstairs, deciding that I wanted to create a giant feast for myself (you can’t gain calories by eating dream food ). Instead I walked farther into my den and near my bird’s cage. I then turned around and saw the figure of my dad (still pitch-black) and the silhouette of my dog. I called her and wanted to pet her, but suddenly I was in my room again. This part is a bit fuzzy. This may have even been a 3rd FA but I can’t really remember. Once I was in my room again I started to panic a bit. I kept doing nose checks and breathing in quickly to try and wake myself up. I laid down again and the whooshing sound came back with another metallic sound mixed in. I then woke up for real and did a few nose checks which failed. Then I looked in my school planner to see if I could read correctly. I never checked the time but changed sleeping positions and told myself I would have a normal dream. I did.
