    1. True Love: Unlocked by Water-Bow

      by , 08-05-2014 at 01:33 PM (Schmaven's Dream Journal of Randomness)
      Inside a large indoor pool area, there is an extravagant show being performed with several attractive female divers, all dressed up with large winged costumes, and lots of sparkles, but definitely in just bathing suits underneath the fancy stuff. I sit down next to a glass table, mildly interested in the show, an announcer barely heard in the background. A cardboard box flap pokes me annoyingly in the arm, sort of stuck between my arm and the table. I lift my arm up to free the flap and move the box, just exactly as the announcer asks if there are any volunteers from the audience. He looks right at me as my arm is in the air, and waves me forward.

      Panic stricken, I slowly stand up and wave at everyone. Some assistants escort me to the stage near the pool, below the 8 or so attractive divers. I guess I wasn't really paying attention at all. It turns out that there are other volunteers as well, and we are going to take part in some sort of competition against each other with the help of the women above. One volunteer per diver. We are lead up to their platforms with very little instruction as the announcer excites the audience for what's about to happen. The diver I'm standing with is just about my height, and very tan, like she comes from a country where it's just normal to be very tan. Actually, even more beautiful up close. I try not to get too distracted. Our eyes meet, and we smile at each other. Basically everything she's wearing is sparkling at this point.

      She informs me that we are doing a trick-dive competition, and I am to go just ahead of her, and support her from below the water, while upside down as she stands on my feet. If she weren't so pretty, I would normally hesitate a bit, but don't even think twice. We get the signal, and I jump off the 100 ft tall platform, face first, and dive deep into the pool. Holding my breath, I feel her land gently on my feet, and dance or something, I can't really see. Then she tugs me up to the surface. Relieved, I take a huge breath at the surface as we swim to the edge of the pool.

      Round two is basically the same. Apparently, one team was eliminated that first time, and we are to do that again. This time, my shorts ride up too far for this kind of show, and quickly get everything back inside before exiting the pool. A few more rounds pass like that, with me just thrilled to be with this girl.

      Now, standing atop the platform, I notice we're the only team. It is the final challenge. We must do something difficult to win a worthy prize. I don't really know what to do. I'm lucky enough not to die upon impact when I hit the water, let alone do anything fancy. The girl up there with me just tells me to hold my breath for a while, and she'll do the work up top.

      We jump, and it seems like I'm falling in slow motion this time. I take a huge breath of air, but realize I was a bit too early, so I let it out fast and take another huge breath immediately before I hit the water. For some reason, I am immediately out of breath, despite the huge breath I just took. It's not that big a deal though, just uncomfortable, and I can push through it for some time. It gets more uncomfortable, but still bearable.

      The pressure on my feet from her standing on me is lifted, and I see her dive down next to me. I return right side up, but no longer need to breathe under water. We can talk underwater now as well, but that's just normal. She tells me that we've won, and has a huge smile on her face. She gives me a big hug, and then we both look over at a giant treasure chest that is sinking to the bottom, together with a large ornate crown and a really fancy looking decorative bow. I put the crown on her head and tell her she deserves it because she did all the work. It makes her look even more beautiful.

      Picking up the bow, I draw it back to full power and tell her something about it being a really cool bow. Probably endows the user with some sort of power or something like that. A look of terror quickly comes over her face as she reaches out to stop me from dry firing it (wet firing it?), yelling something like it's going to kill me. But too late, I let go of the cord, and the two of us watch the pressure wave float toward the treasure chest. It hits it, and breaks the lock open. That wasn't supposed to be able to happen That treasure chest was magically sealed, and only certain people were to be able to open it. Plus, the bow was cursed, and was supposed to harm the user. I wasn't even aiming at the treasure chest at all, I was more focused on showing off the bow than anything.

      Inside this treasure chest, amidst the gold lining, and shiny gold plated walls of the box, all glowing radiantly, is true love. Sweet, I've found true love! I look over at the girl, and kind of doubt it's her. She's not really my type, but what the hell, if it's true love, that's good enough for me. We hug again and look into each others' eyes, still speechless in amazement of what just happened.
    2. Bat-Man (more literal than you might think)

      by , 08-05-2014 at 01:00 PM (Schmaven's Dream Journal of Randomness)
      Spoiler for Random Intro:


      On the other side of the fence, I am face to face with a giant bat. At least I think it's a bat. Looking right at me, drooling profusely, a nasty looking orange drool. It has small flexible fangs. It also has a very powerful venom. Not very good. Biting onto my arm, I feel that none of the fangs pierces my flesh, but I don't want to take any chances, so I wrestle it away, pushing its porcelain smooth beak away. Now holding it back by the beak, we stare at each other, both still pushing at the other. The beak is so smooth, I actually rather enjoy touching it. Kind of cold to the touch as well, and very colorful with swirls of reds, browns, and oranges all throughout the beak.



      The animal's owner comes by, and pulls him back by the shoulders. She tells me, "He's just hungry, sorry about that" Being sort of like a bat, I assume he eats bugs, so I tell them to hang on for a bit, while I find some food for him inside my house. There are no bugs... I go downstairs and ask my room mate if he has any bugs.

      "Of course I do buddy, here ya go." and he hands me a plastic bin. 'Great! Now I can feed this thing.' I dash upstairs, but looking inside the bin I just see a loaded gun, some batteries, loose change, a few lint balls, and random other odds and ends. I take all the bullets out of the gun and toss them separately into the bin, then ditch the gun as well. 'There's gotta be bugs around here somewhere'

      I go outside, and find a large group of rather juicy looking bugs on the window sill. They all look dead, but still meaty. I pick one up by the wings, a large green bug, and it starts to wiggle around a bit. 'Not quite dead yet!' so I put it back down on the window's edge. The rest of the bugs all have rigor mortis, so I know they are dead. I pile them all into my left hand and go back over to the bat creature. Somewhat human, but definitely more animal than person. I hold out my hand and he ravenously slurps them into his beak and chews them for a bit before swallowing them, followed by more drool around the edges of his beak. Quite gross.

      Seeing where I got the bugs from, he walks over and looks for more. Seeing the one I left behind because it was still alive, he goes in to eat it. I pray that the bug either is spared death, or dies well, whatever is meant to be... To my surprise, the previously lifeless but twitching bug now flies off, just out of reach of the bat creature, then shoots rapidly into the sky at what I assume is maximum bug speed.

      I help the bat-man (more bat than man) find more dead bugs to eat. Mostly dead moths that are stuck to loose boards on the side of the house, or in abandoned spider webs. The creature eats more of the wood than the bugs, just chewing on it, as he holds it like an ear of corn.

      Walking back to the front yard, his friend/caretaker person tells him it costs too much to feed him and he has to make some money himself if this is going to work. Bat-guy sits down on a bench looking rather dejected, as he stares down at his feet with his hands in his lap. I go up to him, pat him on the back and encourage him, "You'll be able to do something to make money, don't worry."

      He looks up to me as if saying, "Like what?" but with just his eyes.

      I answer, "You could always give massages to people" and we both start laughing. I see a smile return to his beak and hope in his eyes. "I didn't know you could understand me" I say, amidst more laughter, just thinking about this bat-guy giving people massages... He nods understandingly.

    4. Competition Entry # 9

      by , 08-05-2014 at 12:40 PM


      Not that I gathered many points - but I gathered lucid time, for my meagre standards quite a lot of time, even.
      Did a WBTB, but again a short one, and not like planned...

      LD #1: I was standing in the atrium of a house, maybe 3 stories high, looked like an office-building, I don't know how I got there. But looking down the hall - it just simply struck me, that it was a dream. Forgot to RC, but did that later on. What was on my mind first, was that Maxis had lucid dared me to die and survive it like a proper cat should be able to do. But what I did first wasn't trying something fancy, nor going after my 5 senses, since I ended up in the void by interrupting what I was doing before and especially upon lacking input from a sense, I search. So I slowly walked out of the building, as if nothing had happened. And that was a good idea, when I came out, the dream had nicely stabilized.

      The idea had been to transform into a cat and then let myself get hit by a lightning strike. Somehow I had the feeling that I'm not up to full transformation, didn't dare try - and since I could also die and survive something as a human - I started weather-witching instead and conjured up rain and storm and darkness - but lightning eluded me. I was a bit afraid then if I'd get anything done and went flying - by jumping from a high cliff into something like a canyon. The plan was my 3-stepper super flight, into which I wanted to switch while in the sky, and maybe catch a deadly lightning strike under way. But - soo stupid - I suddenly had such an urge for the toilet, that it disturbed my air-swimming. Soo - what now, I think in mid-flight, and wanting to get something out of this LD in the last seconds, I grab my right eye, see if I can rip it out for the TOTM. Well I do - but not really - it stays on it's optic nerve, I get it out maybe 20 cm and then it bounces back in. No pain - no spectacular visual effects, either - but it feels slimy. Now reading back - I should have examined it further - what I can say, is that I saw it with my other eye, as a dark ball. Before I could go on and land somewhere and maybe cut it off with something, I felt I had to go so urgently, I woke myself up. And of course - nope - I didn't need a toilet irl - this happened several times before. Need to remember that once and for all - maybe stop moving my dream-body or just letting it go...


      Dream #1: It's back - the old house. This time, though, it had been ripped down except for a small part, and all the place around it had been sold and integrated into city-buildings on one side, on the other was some garden left. I was very happy to be there, to know it exists, but later on I found out that even that last bastion had been sold, and there was a party with the new owners moving in suddenly appearing in my and a friend's living there. We were just living there, and they came in all dressed fancily and with champagne glasses, we had to first find out what they wanted, I couldn't believe it nor accept it, but I had to in the end...

      Fragment #1: A woman stands at a table and wants to demonstrate something, takes her fingers and does as if it was a touch-screen and she would make the picture bigger. It screeched like hell, but that supposedly belonged to the new technology, where you could use anything as a monitor.

      I guess I know exactly where this is coming from - Sivason and the wet oil painting thing, which I mentioned yesterday...

      Fragment #2: Washing dishes...

      Fragment #3: A kid with a sick guinea pig, and I don't want to check it, because I'm afraid it bites, looking somewhat sinister

      Fragment #4: In a coffee shop, looking at the lots of cakes


      Again didn't dictate something - hence the fragmentation...
      And I try to keep that up - just pretending nothing would have happened upon lucidity, taking it slowly - that was good.

    5. Three dreams, recall steadily improving

      by , 08-05-2014 at 11:42 AM
      First Dream

      My dad and I were in some kind of shop and he for some reason wanted to buy loads of scrap metal. I was there presumably to help him carry everything. The shopkeeper was in his sixties, was quite small and had round glasses and was almost bald. Upon hearing my dad's request, he moved around the shop and threw down at our feet random metal things that were on the shelves or walls. Among them there were a few old swords and a few metal rods, and they all amounted to an impressive heap of metal. We left the heap for a moment to talk to the shopkeeper about the price, but when we turned back around, all the metal was gone. My dad told the shopkeeper this, who said he wasn't surprised at all and it didn't seem like it bothered him much that someone stole so much stuff from his shop. Instead, he went around the shop again, this time making a smaller pile out of these rectangular, iron plates which were about 30cm by 15cm and had text engraved on them.
      I noticed a deck of cards without its packaging on the floor and went to pick it up. They had the same back design as the blue version of Waddingtons Number 1's but when I looked through them, they all had pictures to do with 16th, 17th and 18th century Poland. The King of Spades was a nobleman on a horse, visibly charging.
      I remember seeing other decks of cards, but can't remember them. One had a really interesting, red back pattern though.

      Second Dream

      I was going up the stairs of a rectangular building, might have been a school. I was following this youngish guy who I suspected of being up to no good. I felt I was some heir to being king of the world or something like that, and I felt that this guy wanted the crown for himself. He went up to the top floor and so did I, noticing along the way that I was being followed by I think one of the teachers from my old school. I asked what he was doing and he said that he was faithful to my rule and he was going to help me look for the guy on the top floor, seeing as the guy disappeared somewhere.
      I went into lots of rooms along the top corridor and carefully looked around corners, afraid that the guy would jump on me and try to kill me. Finally I came to this one room which had a layout similar to my bedroom in my house, and I noticed the curtains were drawn, so I walked up to them and pulled the right curtain back slightly. I saw the edge of the guy's black coat and also the tips of his boots, and I looked to my right at my friend.
      And I saw that he was holding the curtain so I wouldn't be able to pull it back anymore, and he had this expression on his face that seemed to suggest I shouldn't have seen what I did. I tried to pull back the curtain more while looking at my guy, at which point he punched me on the lower right side of my ribcage and I let go of the curtain. It hurt a hell of a lot. He pushed me into a chair and sat opposite, while my rival came down from the window and also sat opposite.
      It turned out the guy who was helping me was actually trying to make sure I don't find the guy, and also broke one of my ribs, because every movement I made resulted in a lot of pain. So I just sat there while they explained how they were going to crown the guy and how I couldn't interfere. In the end they offered me a cup of red, transparent liquid that was supposed be an anaesthetic, so I drank it. And dropped off to sleep, ending the dream there.

      Third Dream

      I was driving a Fiat 126p around my neighbourhood, except it was a weird version which you could shrink and enlarge as you pleased with one of those levers you'd find under an office spinny chair, except it was under the front seat of the car. To make it work you had this piece of hooked metal that you had to hook onto a central line in front of you, which was kind of the ignition system. There was only one pedal - the brake, and the speed was controlled with this knob. I drove around for a while, at one point I remember driving it while on the roof of the car, and at one point I shrank it so much that it was undriveable because the ignition metal piece was too close to the ground and it kept jamming against it, because for some reason the floor of the car disappeared.
      But on my road, I enlarged the car again into a driveable size and put the ignition metal thing on, and drove forward. I suddenly had my dad on the back seats, scrutinizing my driving. There was a black woman crossing the road in front of me and I went right, wanting to go around her, but I evidently miscalculated something and hit her. She screamed and ran to my neighbours' house, so a few metres on I braked and ran out of my car, apologising profusely, but then she came out of the back of my car and it was okay. I have no idea how she got back there, but I tried to go back into the driving seat which was now occupied by my dad, smiling smugly as if to say, "LOL you can't drive". I turned from him and went home, followed by him in the car. When we got home, there was two DC's representing my sister. I asked why and someone explained to me that she went to this secret CIA base and they have this device which makes a clone of all their visitors and puts them where they should be while the real person does whatever they went to do at the base. This is so that a person has an alibi in case they're being tailed or something.
      I remember us wondering when the clone will disappear and which one the clone is, while both of my sisters were as confused as us.

    6. 00:00 Tuesday 2014-08-05 competition #18, night #9, picking flowers, space video game

      by , 08-05-2014 at 09:03 AM
      Stayed up late watching "The Purge" movies

      00:00 Tuesday 2014-08-05

      02:00 bedtime

      no wbtb, no middle of the night recording, but I did wake during the night for recall, the dreams came in across 2-3 wakings and I managed to remember at least some of them, there were more but they degenerated into fragments or I forgot them entirely

      10:30

      + playing space video game, frag ship following close with phasers. The screen fills my vision, there are lots of ship on screen I'm firing torpedoes and trying to detonate enemy torpedoes, I'm changing course drastically and setting full speed to dodge. I'm not sure what team I'm on (orion or klingon?) but figure later I'm klingon, I see a romulan ship at one point and maybe a federation. At one point I have a fed ship close on my tail I'm moving from left to right, he's right on my tail not quite at 9 o-clock but close enough, I fire several phaser bursts straight to the left and he disappears, I guess I got him.

      + in a prison/hospital, one guy wants to move to the special room. I'm walking/talking with one patient (young male short blonde hair) he wants to go to the room. It's behind bars, the room is large-ish but I'm warning him if he goes in there he'll be spending his entire sentence in there.

      +(f) wife is at checkout counter

      +(f) downtown B, lots of gourmet restaurants, but they're empty and advertising for chefs

      + in old house, we only have room for the A family or someone else, walking around over sleeping guests. The A's could stay in a hotel, but could also stay with us, there's someone else who wants to stay with us.

      + picking flowers at the childhood playground. I start at the middle level where the clubhouse was, I want to pick flowers for a girl I like, I'm holding a large-ish tall crystal vase in my left hand, I pick a few flowers but they're too short and they fall down inside. I'm looking at one flower that looks like a black tulip with a green stem sticking up out of the flower. Starting to walk down to the lower/basketball level, someone with me stops to lean over the clubhouse railing to take a drink from the drinking fountain. I put down the crystal vase and it almost falls over, I catch it before it does and steady it. Down on the lower level I decide I want some white daisy flowers, I see them growing on the hillside between the levels, I walk over to the hill and jump up on two concrete benches near the hillside and jump onto the hill. I'm picking one daisy flower, I'm trying to reach down all the way to its base so that I get a long enough stem so that the flower will come out of the top of the vase and not just fall down inside. I'm a bit concerned about bugs as I reach down into the clump of green plant stuff where the stem emerges from. I pick several flowers. Some flowers come wrapped in brown paper wrapping with clear plastic windows like rolls from the bakery, one flower is a double-headed flower. I see that my wife has brought the procession of people down to this level so I don't have to climb back up.

    7. Competition night #9

      by , 08-05-2014 at 08:57 AM
      Lucid dream:
      After I tried a WILD, but probably after a lapse in consciousness, I start visualising a street full of people (a scenario I have been incubating because several goals involve DCs)

      There are lots of people walking in the same direction as me as I fly a couple of feet above the ground (a favourite way of getting around in a dream - helpfully reminding me that it *is* a dream!) and a few going the other way. I try to look at people's faces to see if I recognise anyone, but nobody looks familiar.

      The street is familiar and I think it might be Dogpole in Shrewsbury (where I grew up) I nearly get distracted worrying too much about where the street goes, but realise that having a street in mind is handy because I can just let my subconscious follow the route and I don't need to think to much about generating more scenery. As I turn down the hill I realise that the street has become enclosed like a giant corridor in a shopping centre or the like. The sides of the street / corridor are a combination of shop fronts, redbrick buildings, and rich oak panelling. The ground changes from tarmac to satin finish white tiles.

      Heading down the hill, I realise almost all the people I see are heading in the same direction as me which isn't very convenient because not setting their faces turns them into "traffic" rather than "people". I turn left at a junction at the bottom of the hill (I should have just stopped at the junction, but hey) thinking that I might see more faces heading that way, but my subconscious pulls a fast one on me and I turn into a large room that feels a lot like a swimming pool changing room.

      My lucidity drops somewhat at this scene change, but I'm still just about lucid. I start faffing around with taking off my suit (apparently I'm wearing an expensive suit) carefully folding it and trying to lie it on a bench where it won't get wet. I notice a female DC who seems to want me to "interact" with her, so I oblige. My lucidity / dream recall fades out completely here.

      NLD:
      I'm in my suit from the previous dream, but I have been awake in between. I'm at Armoury Gardens (childhood home) getting ready for work, mum is there explaining why I'm in a suit to Sandeep (my boss's boss) and the explanation involves staying overnight at a relative's house but I don't remember the details. Alice (my sister) has a rather awesome electric violin in a nice case that seems to be designed for two. She talks about getting a chin rest for it, as the case has spare space.

      There was more to this dream but it's very vague, I remember a spiral staircase and some gizmo or other but not even really enough to call a fragment

    8. Walking the Paths

      by , 08-05-2014 at 04:42 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      11:37 a.m.

      I was walking a lot. The place has a lot of trees. I kept walking on a path that winds down various areas. They're supposed to be familiar. While walking down the path, I kept thinking about where it led if I followed a particular path.

      I took a jeepney, and I worried it might not turn to the place I was thinking, but at the last corner, the driver asked aloud. I answered in the affirmative, and he turned right. I got off and entered a mall.

      NOTES:

      - Slept at around 3:12 a.m.
      - Took one tablet (3mg) melatonin
      - I had clear images running through my mind while I had my eyes closed.
      - No techniques, although I tried to tell myself to remember my dream
      - The dream was no different than the others except it has a lot of feeling of familiarity to it.
      - It was kinda rainy.

    9. Basic I Task - DILD

      by , 08-05-2014 at 03:46 AM (Ophelia's Book O' Fun II)
      I started out nonlucid, and I don't remember what I was doing before all this started: I was walking down some sidewalk in some neighborhood on a really sunny day, when something breezed past me on a bicycle. I looked to my left, and saw him turn to look at me briefly and smile before continuing on. He had to be like 8 feet tall, and gorgeous. Oh hell yeah. I started after him, but lost him. He zipped around the corner. I didn't see this part, but he got off his bike and started walking down the street. Only now instead of 8 feet, he was over 50 feet tall. And resembled a cartoon Homer Simpson. His feet thudded as he walked down the block, parallel to the one I was walking down. He didn't seem to notice me, but he morphed into a couple different gigantic forms before settling on a 50 foot naked black woman, stomping around this one house. I was suddenly filled with this urge to fly up and smack her on her shiny brown butt cheeks lol. As I flew upward, I realized I was dreaming!

      I immediately landed and remembered the task about asking a DC to tell me a word in a foreign language. A young boy appeared, and I asked him to tell me a word in a foreign language. He said something garbled, and I asked him what it meant. He looked at me with a huge grin and, shaking his head, he replied, "I do not know!" I asked him for another one, same answer. So I flew off and found a young black girl sitting with her mom outside their house. Funny, it was night time now. I asked her for a foreign word and she said something that could only be described as tongue and throat clicks. I asked her what that meant and she said, "Go the way of Jesus."

      I thought of the eyeball task right after that, and thought about going into their house and finding a bathroom mirror for the task. But before I went in, I decided to recap the basic task so I'd remember it better when I woke up. It was a good plan and a bad plan. I took the time to recall it,
      but then woke up before going into the house. Oh well, next time

    10. Bad Hair Day

      by , 08-05-2014 at 02:50 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      August 04, 2014



      All I remember was that I was going to my grandpa's old mansion (he sold it a few years ago) for a grand party of some sort. I was with my mom and dad and brothers, in the car on the way there. We had been staying at my grandpa's other house on the edge of town because it was less crowded. I remember that I had this gorgeous red dress, and my makeup was perfect, but when I looked at my reflection in the car-door window, I noticed that my hair was a fracking NEST. It was so messy. I frantically tried to fix it, but nothing was working.

      My mom told me it was fine and that no one would be looking at my hair, but it was SO noticeable. It's not like I'd worn the wrong shoes, which people really wouldn't have seen, because my dress was floor-length. It was right there on top of my face, which people would be looking at. I was mortified as I walked through the front doors, and then I woke up.
    11. Almost Lucid, Vivid Adventures

      by , 08-05-2014 at 01:44 AM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I was outside, at some kind of air force base. I was standing near a building/hangar next to some military guy. I looked up at the sky and noticed it was deep yellow/ dark orange in color. I had been talking to the military officer for a few minutes about something, but I dont remember what.
      Just then, I head the sound of many aircraft engines high above me. The sound was extremely loud and startled me. I looked up into the sky and saw 4 or 5 giant planes flying over. 3 of which had an odd shape to them. These 3 aircraft had only 1 wing and had to shape of a regular airplane, but cut in half. It looked perfectly fine however, like it was some type of new design. The other 2 planes were regular cargo planes, but huge in size still. At this point, I thought something was wrong, and I thought that maybe a war was starting or that we were being invaded. I looked around and thought everything too vivid to be a dream(Dang, just missed it!).
      I thought about the situation that I was in, but I still thought that it was all real. The officer I was standing next to told me to go inside. The sound of the plane's engines above still roaring in my ears. As I went inside, I recall going into some sort of commercial waiting area, it was like an indoor hangar, but commercial. The place was filled with people, some of which I knew. I walked around for a minute and my dad appeared. We chilled around inside. We both walked over to a small jellyfish tank inside. As we stood next to it, we noticed something inside of the tank that my dad said we should take out (I dont recall what it was). I then picked up a very small white rod/string, and it was really thick and had the shape of a carrot. It was really thick on one end, and thin on the other. I stuck this in the tank in order to distract the jellyfish and attract them to my rod. The plan was for my dad to get whatever was inside of the tank while the jellyfish came to my rod. As expected, the small light purple jellyfish swam over to my rod. When the got right up on it I accidentally dropped the rod into the water. The jellyfish got into a group and picked up the small rod and dragged it to the bottom.
      At this point, me and my dad didn't care about what was inside the tank anymore, and we just watched the jellyfish with curiosity. I noticed there were many small red roses inside of the tank, and they were a little smaller than each jellyfish, which were already the size of the tip of a thumb. All of a sudden, everything inside of the tank started disintegrating, the roses and everything, just crumbling to dust before our eyes. The only things not disintegrating were the jellyfish, just going on about their way. I left the tank in fear, not knowing what had just happened and continued walking around.
      I walked into a big, almost empty hanger, which had an interior of all black. I found my english teacher Mrs. Bay standing in a corner next to what seemed like a black roller coaster type of ride. The ride started from inside the hangar and continued inside of a tunnel. I walked up to Mrs. Bay and she told me that I needed to pay for the tickets. I remembered that I had bought weed earlier and knew that I wouldnt be able to buy anymore for a long time because of the expense of these 2 tickets I was about to buy. I bought the tickets and continued on my way.

      2.(This might have been an earlier part of the previous dream ^^^^, and Im pretty sure it is, but I dont feel like putting it into the right order anyways so Im putting it down here.)
      I was inside the big commercial hangar still, and I came across some type of food table/make you own type of thing. This table had on top of it all sorts of boxed foods. To the left of this table was a cart, which had many boxes that each contained a flavor- just a flavor of something. I remember seeing the flavor blueberry in the cart on one of the lower levels. The employees of this hangar told us that we had to mix a drink of our choice with one of these flavors(wtf). I picked out Sprite as my drink, and I wanted to mix it with the flavor Sprite as well(lol) but I knew that wasn't an option. I decided was going to lock in my choice with the blueberry flavoring.
      After this I went to some sort of academic part of this building. I went upstairs and saw that there were lockers everywhere. There were also windows at the end of every hall. The sky was still a deep yellow'dark orange and it shined through these windows giving an the same color of tint to everything it shined on. To me it felt like it was late in the after noon, but I wasn't for sure. Somebody had been following me upstairs into this school like area, and for some reason other than that, I decided to hide somewhere in the hall I had just walked into. I told the guy that was following me soon after that he could hide with me, because I knew some pretty good spots. He followed closely behind me. As I walked deeper into the hallway and was nearing the end of it, I decided to hide behind a small pillar that was on the hall(like a part of the wall).
      To my surprise, a girl was already hiding there, and she was really cute. I looked around and all the other students that had been hiding in this hallway popped out. There must have been at least 15 students hiding in places in this hall. I said hi to everyone and with there being no other places to hide, I suggested to my friend that we hide inside of the lockers. Some other students had already done that, but there were still plenty of lockers that we could hide in. These lockers were huge, maybe 3 to 4 feet wide, and a few feet deep. I opened one up(<<< lol One Up), and as I was about to get inside and close the locker door, a really angry man came into the hallway -who Im assuming was a teacher- and saw all of us.
      He told us, "Those who feel that the shouldn't be a part of this- leave now!". I got out of the locker and started making my way back down and out of the hallway. As I walked past the angry teacher I saw him yelling directly into the face of a student next to him. I wondered why no one else left when he basically gave us a, "get out of jail free" pass, because only I, and maybe 3 or 4 other students left when he did.

      3. I was inside of my house, and in my downstairs living room. Only the kitchen lights were on. As I walked down my hallway about to enter the kitchen, a GIANT pile of weed blocked my way. Im talking pounds of weed. I looked ahead of me and, sitting in a chair, was my old friend Chase Carr. I realized it was him who had brought all of this good stuff over, and he also gave me a bag the size of 1.5 grams for me personally. As I was about to talk to him I heard my dad start opening the back door from outside. I knew I was about to be in big trouble.
      I grabbed as much as I could carry from the huge pile of weed in the middle of the floor and hurried it upstairs. There was still alot of the weed all over the floor, but I ran upstairs regardless and decided to let Chase deal with my dad. As I ran upstairs and into my room I looked at the small 1.5 gram bag. The strain inside of the bag was "Sky Cannabis" and it was written on the bag. I took this as "Sky OG' because "Sky cannabis" doesn't exist as a strain name.
      I started packing all of the weed that I had brought up into my room into my drawers. I think I recall hearing my dad yelling downstairs because he saw the rest of it that I didn't pick up.

      4. I was in a grocery store, casually walking around. I came over to the bakery section and there were 2 or 3 bakers out in buyer section, in the middle of the floor, making giant donuts in these blue tubs. Each donut was the size of each tub it was made in, so only one donut fit inside of each tub. I continued watching these bakers, all of who were girls wearing hair nets. I got up close to see exactly how they were making these donuts.
      They would fill each giant tub full of dough, and then they would make a decent size hole in the middle of it. Then they would pour the filling of the donut into this hole. I assumed that after they baked these giant tubs of dough, that they would cut them into smaller donuts, regular size. The baker to the left of the one I was watching up front, had a slightly smaller tub, filled with all blue dough. This dough was deep blue in color, and the baker preparing the tub to be baked was having some problems. Right before she would pour in the filling, her dough would pop up from the bottom of the tub, and the dough was supposed to be at the very bottom before you could put in the filling. Eventually the baker got the dough to stay at the bottom of the stub and she poured in the filling.

    13. The bible of lucidity [04/08/14]

      by , 08-04-2014 at 09:25 PM (My lucid comeback!)
      I decided to start reading Stephen Laberge's book, 'Exploring the world of lucid dreaming' because I think it might contain some interesting things about MILD and auto-suggestion. Also, as I just saw the 100th anniversary of WW1 outside my window on the old WW1 cemetery. Don't know why I wanted to say that but I think it's quiet weird to think so many people died back then at this place.

      1. Fragment

      I really don't remember anything of this dream other than the bits I wrote down this morning. It had something to do with drugs, me wearing blue clothing and being both awake and asleep

      2. Largest cake in the world

      I'm in my garage and I have to transport a cake to a certain location, I know it's for the royal family of Belgium because I start seeing the King in some flashbacks. I use my bike but there's one problem, the cake is 15 meters wide and so heavy it nearly crushes my bike as I somehow put it on the back. I have a lot of trouble keeping my balance as I'm driving down the street and after some time the cake falls of. When I put it back on the bike the cake has gotten smaller, it's now 2 meters wide and I can actually transport it now. When I get to the party I don't really know what happens but when the party ends 2 biker/gothic women take some people hostage (including me) and we have to dance on weird music while also wearing these weird clothes... Oh yeah, the house is suddenly filled with nails so walking away would be painfull.

      3. Cats on the loose

      I'm standing infront of my house and see 5 cats sitting on a row on the sidewalk. 2 of them are my pets and the others I don't know. I quickly grab the two and put them inside but then I notice how most of the lower part of the house is missing. I see it as renovation and think it's normal but then I notice holes in the door I entered through with the cats must've gone through. And a weird man comes to me and says something but I don't remember what.

      EDIT: Looks like something weird happened during posting this entry, it doesn't register the comments which I would've liked cause I appreciate the interest of others but it tells me "Acces denied" when I try to like.

      Dream one:
      Trying to get into a large house that I'm sure is a location I've been to in previous dreams. There's no spare key, mum explains that it's a special key that would cost over a hundred pounds to duplicate.

      My big brother is behind me also trying to get into the house. I manage to find a different door and get in, but I lock the door behind me and run around closing a variety of other doors and windows. I don't recall why I wanted to lock him out...

      Dream two:
      A seemingly endless cycle of trying to get to work on time (or at least no later than I already am!)

      Fixing my bike, putting my shoes on only to find the shoelaces need replacing, waking up at midday, desperately needing the loo just as I'm about to leave, not being able to find my keys, getting lost as I run the whole way to work (it's about 25 miles) getting to work and finding it's locked. Really the whole repertoire of rubbish anxiety dream nonsense!

      Fragment:
      For some reason I'm in a somewhat erotic tryst with a girl who seems to be quite keen on trying to fit me in anywhere except the most obvious option. Not the most unpleasant dream I've ever had, but still a little frustrating

      Shame I start only now, when most of it is forgotten. But the lucid was just a mini-moment again - since I RCed - I count it for the comp, but not for my LD-count.

      LD #1: Getting lucid at the end of a dream, in a garden, doing a nose-pinch afterwards. Sorry for the unspectacularness of it all...

      Going to do a longer WBTB tonight, and really think about how to DEILD.

      Dream #1: Also with a garden, but that was not the same dream, it was behind a building I worked in and I went exploring it. I was in search for the cafeteria, and chanced upon it. With some of my beloved ruins to climb through...
      The story was about a huge building-complex and me new there to work. But the garden was good!

      Fragment #1: At a party with some people I didn't see in ages.

      I always seemed to dream more about people from the past - even in that past - like not of my boyfriend, but of before ones, but going on - so not because of me wanting somebody old back or something. Same with friends.
      Anyway - I had so much more upon waking - but was frustrated by again just a hunch of an LD - very...
