    1. 26th Oct 2013 Fragments and another CW3 dream

      by , 10-27-2013 at 02:39 PM (Scionox's Journal of Dreams)
      Dream 1(fragments):

      I was somehow a moderator on some random forum and there was someone who multiple times kept annoying me with alts.

      Dream 2(fragments):

      I was playing some FPS and there was boss fight in some ruins.

      Dream 3:

      I was playing creeper world 3, and once again, it was not standard game. I've started on south-west and there were mountains and passages linking that to 4 creeper emitters, and also some kind of fortress on far north-east. Those were not standard emitters, but they build tanks instead. I've spammed some of my tanks around before enemy ones activated fully and then built nodes and nullifiers, getting 3 of emitters quickly, but the last one was alot of problem because it spawned alot of tanks, so i had to sacrifice some of mine, i've also built some air units and in the end i've managed to win.

      Dream 4(fragments):

      I was playing warzone 2100 and there was some mission with objective to capture oil, then SilentEternity messaged me that there was a patch that would fix impossible tiles and reduce amount of enemy mortars. I was having problem with those, especially one of objectives was to place a mine in specific place, but it was blocked by water.

      Dream 5(fragments):

      There was something about changing enemies and a memory card.
    2. Megaphones, Nerf Guns, and Bart Simpson Drowning

      by , 10-27-2013 at 12:33 PM (The Redeeming Dreamer)
      10/27/2013, 10:00-7:00

      This dream was from 6:00 to 7:00, because I woke at like 5:30 to my mom calling dad on the phone.

      Dream 1:

      I was in a store, sort of like Walmart. I was with my family. I was looking for a megaphone, and my brother R was looking for a nerf gun. We both went up to the checkout counter, where they had a bunch of stuff; mostly big nerf guns. There was a woman and a man there. I asked them what they had. They brought out a nerf minigun. Though it was pretty cool, R said we had it already, so they put it back. They then took out another one, which R didn't like, so they put it back, too. I then asked them for a megaphone, they said they didn't have one. I thought I saw one on the other side of the isle where the counter was, but they said it wasn't a nerf gun. I got frustrated and started leaving the counter.

      I then turned into Bart Simpson in a room, that sort of looked like an attic. He was after a megaphone, too. I think he had one in his room, though. He used it in there, saying a few things. He then went to a field next to a small body of water. His parents were close by, as well as a lot of other people. Bart had a baseball, which he dropped into the water. As a ship floated by, Bart got into the water to get the baseball. I then saw a tentacle in the water, but it didn't concern Bart. Bart then grabbed onto a metal hook thing on the ship, but then, the octopus-monster started pulling Bart deep into the water. The only thing Bart still cared about, apparently, was getting the ball. Not getting to the surface. As Bart allowed me and himself to drown (I was part of him, sort of), he reached for the ball. We ended up drowning.

      At that point, I turned slightly lucid. I wanted to try to get back into a dream, but I wasn't lucid enough, and I woke up.
    3. Working at the Library, and Search for the Missing Desk

      by , 10-27-2013 at 11:02 AM
      I was working at the library. Not a library I know, but seems too important a place to just call It "a library". I had recently started the job, and was trying to impress.

      I had finished my regular task, whatever a was. So I had grabbed a bunch of applications and had started to make messy comments on them, when I in mid task realized that maybe they mattered more, and I should have been less messy in commenting. In fact my new boss later found them, and reprimanded me on it, and I said I knew that they were too messy, but that I had done them before I knew what I was doing, but that now I knew, and in fact I had done several much better since, but I had left them at a table in the library, so once I retrieved them, I would show her that those were much better.

      It transpired that for my job I had not really been expected to comment on these applications, but that if I did, I had to do it right. I explained that I knew that for my job I was just expected to wait between assignments at my station, but that I felt too overqualified for that, and needed something to do in between, so that is why I decided to comment on applications as well.

      There was a woman named Jin who also worked in the library, but was more established there and somewhat mysterious. In the dream she actually had a full name, not just a first name, and while I did not realize it in the dream, her full name was the name of a person I work with in waking life who is a DBA of Chinese ethnic origin. The dream did not portray her anything like waking though. In the dream, she was up to something, and she had decided to trust me. She handed me a color coded folder, with colors representing different sections, and I think the sections were about spirituality, but it also felt a bit like a conspiracy, and perhaps going against the authorities who ran the library. I was glad Jin trusted me.

      As I was leaving Jin, another young woman joined us, and then she went with me, and tried to get me to go out with her to grab something to eat or drink to get to know me better. She explained that she was Jin's partner sexually. I explained that she had nothing to worry about, that Jin and I were just friends, and I was heterosexual. She said, she knew that, and was not worried, and anyway Jin and she had a relationship of trust. But she could tell Jin trusted me as a friend, and that was rare, so she wanted to get to know me.

      I explained I could not right now, because I had to find those applications that I had filled out much better, to show my new boss that I was competent after all. I had left them at a desk in the library, but the desk was not where it used to be any more. someone had moved it. I remember it was a small one person desk made out of light colored wood.

      Jin's partner left me as I continued my search for the desk. I think this search was still ongoing as I woke up. Although I may have found the desk at some point, but it was hard to tell whether it was the same desk or a different one like it, given that it was elsewhere and had someone else's stuff on and near it.
    4. Thunder on the beach, ruining the wedding

      by , 10-27-2013 at 09:12 AM
      OK, 2 last night - lets see what I can remember!

      1:
      Starts off I am on a beach, I think there may have been more previous to this leading up to me being on the beach however I can't remember it aside from knowing it was there.

      It's a long, straight beach. Clean golden sand, blue skies and blue sea. It becomes apparent that the beach is one side of a river, the near side stops after made 500m however the far side continues straight a far as I can see. There are beach huts and sailing boat parks along the near side, with a structure of some sort between me and the end of the near side - possibly sailing club. As I'm typing this know the picture in my head is starting to match a place I windsurfed at once, although that was coastal and not on a river.

      I wade out into the water, a friend of mine from school who I haven't seen for 7 years is swimming with her iPhone underwater taking pictures. The water is very blue - like green blue as you'd expect underwater in the Caribbean or somewhere. I get mine out and start doing the same, then standing in the shallows looking out the sea along the river (so looking past the sailing club structure) I see the left hand side of the sky is still clear and blue, however the right hand side is black and cloudy, to the point I wonder if it is in fact smoke from a fire or explosion. I take a couple of pictures hoping to catch a shot of the lightning which was flashing (however I kept missing it, so in the dream was like "Hmm, is that lightning? Or explosions?"). I wade out of the water onto the beach and turn left (away from the lightning and sailing club) walking down the beach. I go into some sort of building and talk to somebody who I can't remember anything about. All I can recall is that she was female, in the military, older and not a real person or somebody I know IRL. I asked her if it was an explosion and she said know, that was just a thunder cloud.

      I think this dream carried on for a bit, I vaguely remember something about hearing explosions in the distance.

      2:
      Starts off I am in a pub, I don't recognise it and don't think it is a real place IRL. My fiance and I walk in and start asking about details for our wedding as our reception is going to be held in the pub, but for some reason our reception is now being moved to the pub across the street. We walk across the street (it is dark outside, there are yellow streetlights and the tarmac is wet like it's been raining) to the other pub which is rectangular, made of red brick with concrete plinths around the windows and doors (just a normal building, but thought I'd mention this as not used to seeing that level of detail in my dreams). It's packed inside. The waiter takes us to our table and it's ready to go now (but we have to squeeze past lots of other diners to get there), for some reason our wedding goes from being in the future to happening imminently and we somehow end up sitting down for our reception now before the wedding. I run back across the street to find my dad as he doesn't know about the change and we run back across the street to the new pub in the rain. I get back to the table (still wet) only for my fiance to say "I thought you were going to wear you uniform?" and I realise I'm wearing a normal suit so run back across to the first pub, run upstairs to the changing room which is rectangular, with no benches or anything, just a hanging rail around the wall. The floor is grippy laminate like a sailing clubs changing room (the room itself has many features I'd associate with a watersports changing room, but doesn't match a specific one I know). The room is empty and my uniform isn't hanging up.

      What happens next is a bit of a blur, I can't remember the exact sequence but the following happens:
      I go back to the new pub and tell my fiance that I can't find it. She is livid.
      I go back to the old pub, and look at my watch. It's 1523 and the wedding starts at 1530. I know that it will take at least 20-30min to get home and the same to return, but I'm not even sure if my uniform is at home. At this point, I know that I am currently in Southport (theme park roundabout - had a few dreams in the past about being here), and the home I am talking about is my parents home.
      I call my brother who is laughing and joking about general stuff so I tell him "Look, this is important" and explain the situation, he says he'll have a look (or something).
      At some point my stepdad tries to help - can't remember any more than this.
      I'm in the old pub, and somebody walking in wearing Navy 4's with a badly shaped beret. She is a junior rate (but seemed to be wearing a Chiefs capbadge and a reservist. She is not a real person from RL. She starts taking her boots off - civilian brown walking boots and asks if I am decompressing or back for good, I make a joke about 'recompressing' meaning the stress over my lack of uniform and walk out. It's hard to describe here but her hair was quite detailed in the dream. In the dream I think I know her but can't remember her name or exactly how I know her.

      That's it for now. We'll see what happens tonight.

    5. free turtle. greenpeace:)

      by
      she
      , 10-27-2013 at 08:11 AM
      I was walking in the street and saw a turtle, that was on the chain and guard some house like a dog. The turtle was emaciated and gasped.
      i would like to free it, but what i could do? The chain was iron. I was so upset. I count fingers and understood, that its a dream and i can easily stole the turtle and replace it to the nature. First i broke the chain with superpower. Second i summoned a plate with water and gave the turtle to drink. It drank. Third i made a portal to one place near sea in mountains there turtles live and no humans. I put the turtle on the grass and it went under a bush. I had no idea what to do else and awoke.

    6. 10252013PM Get Outta The Way!

      by , 10-27-2013 at 04:18 AM
      I am driving through an intersection and out of nowhere, a kid on a skateboard flies through the street on a skateboard. I slam on my brakes and curse… I am in a store, but it is still “where I was before”, however the scene had changed quite a bit. I see the kid fall off of the skateboard. I notice that it is the autistic kid from my work and I walk up to him and say “you can’t be doing stuff like that”. He agrees and the dream ends.

    7. 10262013AM Interrupting it All

      by , 10-27-2013 at 04:11 AM
      I am walking down a road during the day, there are open fields on either side of me. As I am walking, I see a fat lady in a black dress, sitting in a black chair, under a black umbrella. I see that it is raining only on her. I walk closer and eventually pass very close to her. I realize my white umbrella is stuck on hers and I try to untangle them. I look left and see a man with a small camera, he looks upset. I see that I am interrupting a movie in progress. I am embarrassed and get away. I am under a canopy of trees and see a few tv screens and realize it is a big movie that I got in the way of. I turn back and see that the rain is coming out of the woods near the fat woman and landing only on her. I walk back and get in the way again. A girl tells me to walk around next time. I wake up.

    8. 10262013AM You Don’t Know Frat

      by , 10-27-2013 at 03:59 AM
      I am in a dorm room at my college, arguing with some strangers, while being recorded for a tv show…We are now outside, its dark but there are lights on in the quad, and two others begin to sing their argument toward each other. I look to my left and see a group of frat guys in red jackets walk toward us. They turn away from us and their jackets spell something. One of the guys jumps in front of the group, rap music begins to play, and he rips his jacket off and reveals a red morph suit beneath it. He begins to breakdance, and his group follows suit…We are all dancing now.

    9. NOT October 2013 Task of the month

      by , 10-27-2013 at 01:33 AM
      I tried a WILD today for the first time 8 months. the results were mixed, but I succeeded kinda.

      I'm sitting in the reclining chair I fell asleep in not aware that I am already asleep. I create the feeling that I'm spinning to help me realize I'm asleep. I stand and look around everyone that was in the rooms still is, but I know I'm asleep. I'm not very deep though and it's hard to interact with them. I fly across the room(literally, I've always found flying easy) and try to fly through the window out into the world as usual, but I can't get through. I think this is because the world was very... Fuzzy for lack of a better term. I try to trick or treat a few people for the task of the month, but barely any of them respond.I get a someone to look at me, and she gives me something(It was something, that was nothing. I knew it was there but it had no form).

    10. Oct 26 Dream Journal: Birds see everything

      by , 10-27-2013 at 12:49 AM
      The dream starts with me as the student of an evil samurai -- Kibagami Genjuro, specifically, from the Samurai Shodown series. We are strolling along what I assume are the streets of Edo at night, and there's a light rain. To our left is the base of the castle/wall, and there is a river/moat(?) to the right. We walk under a willow and/or cherry blossom tree (my dream switches them up randomly for funsies) in a small garden patch with a stone lantern, and I recall climbing the tree while Genjuro drinks from a giant bottle of wine.

      As we are walking around being all samurai-y, we somehow get invited to a posh, contemporary house by an early 30's, he-likes-football-she-likes-Mimosas type couple. The house is a big, single-story house, and we are in a giant kitchen that has a view of the backyard through the sliding glass doors. We chit-chat a bit on the counters, and the husband takes Genjuro outside to look at his sweet grill.

      Dream Knowledge tells me the wife secretly flirts with everyone, and does it precisely because she knows her husband will get insanely jealous. And while her husband and Genjuro are outside, she begins flirting with me and Genjuro (who, by dream logic, is able to be in two places at once?). It's about this time her outfit changes into a set of pretty goddamn slutty workout clothes. I react exactly like Ferris' dad from Ferris Bueller's Day Off when Sloane flirts/messes with him in the cab. Meanwhile, the husband is right by the giant glass sliding door, and would have a clear view of everything if he's not so fixated with the grill.

      But then, he calls me to join him outside alone (Genjuro is no longer defying space-time and is now just inside the kitchen now), and there's a creepy vibe about him. I think he knows what's going on, and isn't too happy; but instead, he just talks to me about his grill. He then gives me a tour of his backyard, which is so big that there is are wooden walkways all about. At one end of the walkway, we see a couple of Blue Jays that the couple keeps as pets. He summons one of the birds to him, and for some reason, it's at this time I realize I have an owl friend (who just kinda exists briefly). As I marvel at the bird, the husband turns to me and says, "You know... birds see everything."

      I take that as a sign to leave. There are other guests all of a sudden, and they grow exponentially hostile from their sudden existence like dream extras in Inception.

      Things kind of escalate from here.

      The backyard grows larger, and I'm at the side of the fence. Directly in opposite of me in front of the glass doors is Scorpion from Mortal Kombat, and, yep, he shoots his spear thing at me. I all of a sudden have a katana in my hands, and charge at Scorpion. Suddenly, I'm fighting the entire cast of the evil characters from Mortal Kombat. Well, shit.

      I take to the upper terraces of the garden to get away, and suddenly I'm platforming along bamboo platforms supported hundreds of feet above ground, next to mountains that look like it comes out of a Chinese watercolor painting. I'm leaping and hopping hundreds of feet, and I distinctively remember going so fast that I'm very concerned about my landing.

      I wake up after a few bounds, confused as fuck what the hell my brain is doing.
    11. Retrieving toy from monster, and return from around the world

      by , 10-26-2013 at 09:15 PM
      At a garden party a child's toy had rolled into the den of the pet monster or pet land dwelling octopus, and I did not know how to get it out so I went to fetch help. Someone handed me a mop. I then found a couple college student aged young women who I gathered would know what to do, and entreated them to come help me retrieve the toy. One of them stopped somewhere to find a mop (she did not notice I already had one, so she got another), then when she saw I already had a mop, she gave me this dirty look as if to say "you already have what you need for this job, why do you bother us?" I said "it's nice to get someone who knows what they are doing. I bet next you are going to tell me that the monster is completely harmless, but see I don't know that." The young women did not deign to answer just proceeded to retrieve the toy using one of the two mops (the one she got, mine remained a useless extra). It was very easy to do. Oh, I only in hindsight noticed that I not only gathered two mops, but also a couple young women for what appeared to be a one mop and one person task.

      Then I went around the world. I do not recall anymore why I went around the world, but it appeared to be on some sort of mission I thought was important, but no one else cared about. When I came back to this garden party type scene which incidentally was much like the setting of the part of the scene with the monster/octopus above, I remember recognizing the people especially a girl (upon waking up none of them seemed familiar but in the dream they were). I said "greetings! I have come from around the world. It is nice to once again be among people I recognize!" A woman asked a man "how long before she ...?" But her voice kind of trailed of, and I assumed she wanted to know, how long before she stops speaking in this funny accent (I think it was Scottish - not that I know how to talk with a Scottish accent nor would I actually recognize one), or maybe she was asking "how long before she stops acting weird?", or it is also possible she wanted to know "how long before she wakes up?" -- all she did ask was "how long before she ...?" And the man answered "wait a moment." Oh, and then I woke up from this nap, so if the question of the DC was how long before she wakes up, then the male DC was quite correct in his answer.

    12. It's Been A While. But, unintentional WILD!

      by , 10-26-2013 at 07:32 PM
      Yeah. So Its been over two weeks since my last LD, hopefully it will be a dry spell if I can manage to LD more frequently.
      Today I woke at 6:45 - very slowly. I was so groggy. I worked out, had breakfast, showered and went to two classes. I got back to my room and took a nap. I fell asleep quickly. Its been a long week. I have been using the mantra 'I notice details and become aware' before I fall asleep and sporadically throughout the day. When I use it sporadically, I practice noticing details in my environment.
      So how'd I get lucid? Well, as I was falling asleep I pretended to become lucid in the short daydreams I experienced before bed. I asked where one of my friends where he was going next year and he said, "Toyota." I then thought, Toyota is not a place, and pretended to become lucid. Then, as I fell deeper asleep I had some H.H., I offended a dog somehow and it Put its mouth over my bent knee and began to bite it. This got me aware and woke up my mind as I fell asleep. I then decided to wait for a dream scene to begin.
      I could feel my consciousness floating thru my mind and thinking how relaxing it was. When the dream scene formed, I was not completely in control of my actions. I was also not completely aware. I was lucid, but not aware, just kind of going thru the motions. I was going to kiss this girl in my dream. I did an RC to check that I was dreaming, as to not screw up my normal life if I wasn't dreaming. Everything faded after that, or I simply do not remember.
      I am going to try to focus more on control than doing things in my dreams.
      Thanks for reading

    13. Another Short Lucid

      by , 10-26-2013 at 06:07 PM
      I'm walking outside my house and sometimes I've been using flying as my reality check(which is pretty fun), so I tried flying and I ascended right then, at this point, it was clear that I was lucid.

      I flew around for just a bit more, and for some reason when I get lucid I really want a random scene that isn't just my house, so I looked at the wall and thought of a new scene and turned around, nothing had changed.

      I tried again but I made the dumb mistake of closing my eyes
      and opened them to waking life

    14. mansion, prison, and highway

      by , 10-26-2013 at 05:31 PM
      I was crawling along the hardwood floor. It was a narrow pathway that passed many things on the side of the hallway: a curtained window like those at my grandma's house, a black metal helmet with long narrow spikes, purses, etc. This hallway was circular, and when you got close to where you started, there was a staircase. I knew She lived here. I saw the stairs, then hid behind the wall to them when I heard something. I looked back and saw my dad, who surprised me but didn't scare me because he wasn't Her. He had something in his hands he was fiddling with, and then he did something wrong. She knew about it, and her steps were like thunder coming down the stairs, not from her weight, but like actual thunder. I hid behind the wall again so i wouldn't see Her. I can't remember if mom hit him or not. Mom said it was raining, an he went to go open the door for to let in Her poofy west highland white terrier. Dad opened the door and started calling him. The dog said "never open a door in my house again" when he came in, and i saw the doggie door he could have entered through. Then they were at there pool, and a tall skinny black man was in water up to his chin, talking to mom about something dangerous that was coming, and she seemed to be taking him seriously.

      I was in prison. Many people here were imprisoned at a time when being homo was illegal. In fact, i think we were all homo. We were separated by bars from this street. the street was under some kind of cave arch, and free people walked under it from time to time. Some flamboyant dude walked under, and a gay dude behind bars says "LUCKY YOU!", because even though the anti-gay law was no longer in effect, because we were tried when the law was in effect, we couldn't leave. Me and Shadae were in the part of the prison near a soccer game. Savanah (from work), who everyone knew was crazy, was coming down the hall dressed as a fairy. She was separated from us by bars, and would have to go a long way around to get to us. Shadae said "hey, come here!". "I can't!" savanah responded. "try!" said shadae. and then savanah bent the bars apart and walked over to us. then she came over, bent the bars near us, and walked in next to us. We could escape! We hesitated. Was this the right time? Would we just get caught? Then we saw the crowd of girls running from behind us, and we went out. I was alone. I could have gone in the direction of the city, or the trees, and I chose the trees. I was on my hands and knees (or feet, im not sure) running through a field full of dog or cow shit, getting closer and closer to the trees, wishing i was a werewolf.

      I was driving with my mom in the passenger seat, and i was doing pretty well. we got on the highway, i was perfect. when we got off and she wanted to turn somewhere, i missed the turn. my view became that of a traffic helocopter. i crossed over three lanes and almost had a head-on collision.



      It's almost like I change my mind during the course of the dream, but I'm not lucid. For example, when I see my dad, I kinda choose not to get scared an make my mom the scary one, kinda going against the stereotypical direction. When I'm actually crawling through the hallway, I think about how cool this place will be to describe later. When I'm running on hands an knees like a wolf through crap field, I start thinking how prison would be easier if I were a werewolf, almost like I'm thinking of ideas to improve my dreams with while still in the dream.

      Two fragments.

      First:

      I was with my two aunts and my cousin. They were taking me to this weird place, but I kept going the wrong way.

      Second:

      My mum was mad at me. I don't remember why.

      Wow, my dream recall sucked.
