All DJ Entries

I took a nap after lunch (siesta!) and had two crazy dreams.

I was home, in the living room. My mum said that my dad would be home soon, so I sat down and waited. Sure enough, he arrived, but he was weird. He looked like my dad and he acted like my dad, but I somehow knew it wasn't him. I got to him and said "tell me your name!", because I just knew that people can look like others, but they can't lie about their names. My fake-dad stuttered and tried to change the subject, so I let him walk a bit. I got behind him and broke his neck.

My mum was particularly cold about it, so I told her to tell me her name too. She told me I was being stupid. I was going to attack her, but then my real parents showed up (I knew it was them) and they told me I had to be careful, because those fake-people had super powers. My fake-mum disappeared. I cursed and told them we had to go after them. They told me to sit down, because they had something to tell me.

As I sat down, many fake-parents showed up and we were fighting them. The living room was absolutely destroyed, and then I woke up.

Second dream, I was in this very dark, old building. I was going to have dinner with a kid, I wasn't me. I was a fifteen-year-old girl, but the kid was like ten. Still, "I" was treating him like this was a date (so damn disturbing). Then, many people entered the room, it was like a restaurant.

The kid got angry cause he had to help (he worked there, I guess, even though he was a child?) so I told him it was okay, I could wait. I ended up helping too, and it wasn't that bad. I sat down for a while to wait for him, then this weird couple entered and sat down. The woman was looking around, suspicious. Another woman entered the room and I became her.

As this other woman, I knew that the couple were dangerous, especially the woman. The woman was a witch and she was going to kill me. I quickly used my powers, as I was also a witch now, and destroyed one of the walls. It was night and windy outside. The couple got up, ready to get me. I looked down and knew I could fly... not because I knew it was a dream, but because I knew I was a witch. I jumped and flew away.

I was back to being the fifteen-year-old girl. The kid showed up and asked me what had happened. I told him "witch stuff" and asked him to finish his work soon. He agreed and left. I woke up.

So frequently I have these dreams that are located at shopping centers.

In the dream I hear conversations of people happening around me. The dream started out where I was walking towards a store with some kids that were supposedly my own. One of the kids that was with me was just a toddler girl, she kept running away from me towards people and other stores so I kept having to catch her and hold her for a bit before putting her down again. Anyways, I heard a conversation that was I'm guessing my own conversation about being goal orientated or wanting some goal orientation because it seemed to me that nothing was happening of interest in this dream.

FYI: I have a separate dream family apparently. The are made up purely from imagination and I can't fully see them in dreams, its almost like they are just shadows, but I can see them and talk to them but it just doesn't seem real enough to me and it is quite frustrating that the keep showing up. Rarely do I ever dream about real family members. It is very strange to me.

I am then losing track of who I'm with because it is not clear to me who these people really are to me and they won't really communicate with me either mostly because it just seemed like I had a baby with me and that was it, but I felt other presences within the dream, it was odd.

I walk around the store I was going into in the beginning of the dream and start looking for clothes for a baby. I do this a lot in dreams and I have no clue why because I don't want kids, although I love kids and am definitely not expecting. Apparently my subconscious picks up on the side suggestion that maybe I do want kids but it will never be a set fulfillment in my life so it leaks out into the dream world.

So this whole entire dream I'm just walking about it store outlets, and I have no clue what I am really doing there. END

The next dream I was playing a video game that reminded me of a shooter like Grand theft auto. I was playing with these people and was telling them to take down this mob boss in the game. The mob boss had two stacks of health and when I shot him his health only went down a little, but he was just standing there staring at me. Then I said something like "wait, who is the person I'm shooting? Am I supposed to kill him?" There were these two other people with me who told me that there was some other objective to accomplish before we killed the mob, but I was still confused about why he was there in the first place if we had to do something else before killing him. END

The last dream kind of remotes back the shopping center except it was kind the shopping outlets were separated into fairground booths but still had the layout of an outlet store. You could walk into these booths, just like you would a store and the whole room consisted of the booth. The had weird prizes for kids, very ugly giant stuffed animals. Someone then told me these booths were like daycare, you leave your kid at a giant outlet store fair game booth with unreliable people. I told the people at one of the booth/stores that these were a bad idea and no kid would want to stay at these. Apparently as it was apparent to me in the dream I was very disappointed at the idea and left or rather awoke. END

YES, LUCID! LucasPotter, thanks for passing some of that goodness my way just like I asked . Now this is more like it, dreams more bizarre / wild / wacky than last night. Got to bed 2 hours late, woke up for the final time 9 hours after bed. I went on a long fast jog/walk today to make sure I'm ready for lots of sleep tonight.

legend: comments, normal dream, lucid dream

00:00 Saturday 2013-10-19 (country)
02:05 bedtime at last, way off schedule of 00:00, couldn't be helped, had to heat the place. With the long day including intense exercise Friday morning (swam 1km in 30 minutes), I'm falling unconscious on my feet.

07:22
1) Whale friend, I'm holding on to him in the turbulent water, I don't want to get lost in the water. I'm scraping barnacles off of the whale with a knife, sometimes I mistake a tiny piece of the whale for a barnacle. The water is beautiful blue. The whale communicates to me a feeling of safety, he won't let me get lost in the ocean. I feel a great love for this whale. I'm looking all over the body for barnacles. I'm holding on to the whale's ear (!!).

F1) I waited a long time for someone to arrive.

F2) Playing guitar.

08:59
2) Mother says "What's that red thing on your neck?" I look in mirror (face fuzzy), don't see anything at first, look again, then see a large red blue black swollen area under my right jaw. Some blue veins running through it. I'm looking in the mirror confused by this (DS). I look on my body and I see dozens of brown marks, and then snails, snails everywhere. I open my shirt and see more snails. They're arranged in lines on my body. I pluck each on of them off of me with a "pop" feeling and throw them to the ground. (WL, went to dermatologist).

3) Video game in sister's old room in parent's house (DS) in liquid. JM (former work colleague) has constructed a video game system in my sister's room. The system contains liquid. It is not finished. He wants me to help him finish the system, to provide something. I don't want to do it, because I don't want him playing loud video games in my house. The system starts working and produces a deafening sound, everyone has to shout just to be heard. Some visitors arrive and are taking a tour of our house. They don't approve of the loud sounds. I take them into my old room where it's quiet to show them around. They like this much better. "That's much more like it" they say. There are two men and a women. One of the men is freakishly tall, like over 7 1/2 feet, his head is scraping the ceiling.

F3) Toby (PR guy from West Wing) arriving to meeting another guy at a restaurant. I'm sitting in a table opposite. He says to the other guy "are we here to chat or to chit-chat?" He doesn't want smalltalk, it's an important meeting.

F4) Say goodbye to STch (family friend), she doesn't even look at me or respond and just walks by with a disapproving look on her face. She doesn't approve that I think she's hot.

F5) Playing a water-filled video game system (different than the above one) with a woman. She says how it's her favorite game and has great graphics. We're looking at it and seems like plain/cartoon graphics. I see them, it's like slowly animating cartoons. She says they're good, "they're enhanced."

F6) Body parts in a mixer/blender.

09:07 temperature 10C

10:36
4) Consulting company (I work with them sometimes) is holding a seminar in how to make money as a freelancer (WL discussion). They recommend that one great way to make money is to sign up with the "Mr. Hensen" project. This is a man who is trying to map out every major league baseball (DS) stadium in the US so he can visit each one. They say we should use Google (calendar?) but unfortunately that doesn't integrate with Google maps so we have to do some work to provide the same functionality. Mr Hensen is standing in a baseball stadium, it's night and the lights are on. He's trying to visit each stadium in the country. Somehow he needs to pay a consulting company to make them out for him. I walk by him and he pats me on the shoulder and offers some sort of reassurance.

F7) There's a woman whom I like but she doesn't like me so I'm going to be alone tonight.

F8) I'm with people sitting in an open area. The people are out of focus to my right in my peripheral vision. I think "they're making a fire".

11:09 DILD #3!!
5) A group of people are dancing. One is a young lady, very attractive, short brown hair (DS) and brown eyes. All the people are doll (large) sized. Then I reach for the doll-lady, and I'm holding the lady/doll in between my hands, one hand on each side of her body on her ribs. (Her name is Allison?) I say "I understand that you're going to be dancing with this guy over here, but when you're done dancing with him, come find me ... " while I'm saying this she grows to be fully life-size, I continue, ".. and then we'll dance ...", I begin to pull her close to me, and say, "... or ... something! ..." and we start making out. As I'm kissing her my awareness slowly grows. and I become lucid. I know I'm dreaming. Continue kissing ...a few seconds later: "I'm dreaming," I think to myself. I'm calm, no running around for me this time. I have things to do, goals to achieve. But this is so nice... (continue making out)... I'm calm, I feel aware of my waking life, I know I should stop this to achieve some goals. I feel quite pleased with myself, I have achieved lucidity *and* I'm making out with a beautiful doll-lady. I have a feeling like I'm grinning/smirking (like the "Kirk Smirk" from Star Trek when Captain Kirk is especially pleased with himself at the end of an episode). Still making out, I think to myself "Do a reality check" and I become increasingly aware of my body in bed..., and my awareness slowly transitions from the dream into WL. I'm in bed with my eyes closed. I want to go back in to achieve some goals (yeah, that's the ticket, to achieve more goals...smirk...). I try to DEILD, I haven't moved and my eyes are still closed. My shoulder hurts from my position and my other hand has needles from numbness from the position. I try for about 2 minutes but I'm quite awake, I'm already in the 9th hour after bed, and I'm very uncomfortable so I figure I'm not going to make it and reach for my phone and journal the experience. I was making out the entire time of the LD up through waking up with lips still moving . Total elapsed time lucid, about 20 seconds.

11:46 temp 9C

#1. I was relaxing in a hot tub at some hotel. I then looked up into the sky to see the most strange of full moons. First off, the moon was completely smooth, looked like a giant ping pong ball or something. The next odd thing is that it looked like it had a giant bite taken out of it! In the dream I assumed this was from a partial lunar eclipse or something. Throughout this dream I was simply gazing at the moon.

#2. During this dream I seemed to have been shrunken down to the size of the toys in Toy Story (or vice verse), as we were all on this big cruise ship. Also the Gingerbread man from Shrek was there, and he was the villain. I remember Gingy kept giving Woody all of these pills and it made his nose get longer and longer. Then Gingy jumped in the water and screamed for help. Woody went fishing with his nose, and then Gingy tried to kill him by holding his nose under water. (Um... he could still breathe through his mouth dummy) Anyways, when he realized this plan failed a Navy helicopter came in from no where and Woody jumped on board as they went to rescue Gingy despite his attempted murder. Then when Gingy put up a fight they simply threw him back in the ocean

Two dreams and one fragment...

First dream:

I was talking to this guy. His style was kinda punk and he had the whole "don't fucking mess with me" attitude going on. We were at his work, he looked like a retail clerk. Someone asked for his help, so he left and forgot his camera. I took it and started looking at his pictures. They were gorgeous and very artistic. He had taken pictures of flowers, trees and old couples hugging.

The guy came back and saw me with his camera. I turned to him and said "wow, I had forgotten you ARE able to be sweet sometimes". He chuckled and offered me a notebook with some of his pictures and there were drawings too. I accepted it, put it in my bag and told him I had to go.

When I walked out of the store, I was on the subway. I sat down and I was watching the people around me. Then, I realised it was my station already. I tried to get up, but my bag got stuck between two seats. I panicked, cause I HAD to get off on that station, but I was also afraid of ruining his notebook.

Finally, I was able to get my bag out of it and I jumped out of the train, right in time. I sighed in relief and... woke up.

Second dream:

I was driving and my friend was on the passenger's seat. He was talking about something, but I wasn't paying attention because I wan't sure WHERE I was. Then, he touched my shoulder and said that we had to turn right. I saw a gas station and a street right after it, so I said "okay".

Then, he was like "nooo, it was there!" and he pointed at a building before the gas station. I put the car in reverse and a huge truck was behind me. The driver went to the lane next to us and I was expecting them to honk at me and shout/curse, but... nothing. They did pretty much throw the truck back to our lane right in front of my car, though, as if saying "PA SOME FUCKING ATTENTION", but I was surprised that they didn't say anything.

I parked the car at the gas station, in front of the building. My friend thanked me and said that I didn't have to wait, that his dad would come and pick him up. I told him I didn't mind waiting, so he thanked me again and said that his dad would then take him to my house on the weekend.

He got out of the car and I realised he was going to the doctor. I got mad, cause that meant I'd have to wait for a long time. I got out of the car too and there were two other cars parked there. In one of them, there were two people making out. Then, I saw about R$30 on the floor. I took the money and started looking around, pretending to be looking for someone (I was in fact hoping nobody had seen me). The woman in the third car saw me and she waved at me. I went over to her and she said her name was Caroline. The money had a note with her name on it, so I gave the money to her and went to the convenience store of the gas station, pissed off for not having the money.

I got in there and I was hungry. I decided I'd take LOTS of snacks, diet be damned. I was cursing and being all "screw that I have to lose weight, I'm going to eat everything I want to eat, I just lost R$30!"

I woke up (and I was hungry).

Fragment:

My dog had blisters all over his body. I didn't know what to do, although he didn't seem to be in pain. Still, I was really freaked out.

Crash Derby at the Colosseum and learning a new Stabilization technique (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in bed, it was night and my wife was awake in the living room. i went to the living room and it looked very dark, it appeared to be a starless night. My wife was in the kitchen and I wondered what the hell she was doing in the kitchen. She started to speak fast and she appeared mad at me.

I realized I was dreaming as it made no sense that my wife could be in the kitchen at the middle of the night and mad at me out for no reason. I realized that we had a balcony and I recalled that I do not have a balcony in my house, so I opened the doors and I stepped on the edge of the balcony, above the safety bars. My wife told me what I was doing and I told her that we were in a dream. She started to become more angry saying nonsense and told me I was going to kill myself and that I was crazy wanting to go back home to the Pleiades (very long story here, PM if interested) I told her that nah, that we did not even have a balcony and thus, we were dreaming. I jumped off the balcony and realized I did not even do a reality check, but I knew it was a dream, looked at my hand and confirmed.

As I was about to touch the trees, I glided and started to gain altitude. My dream was very bad quality and I was loosing it fast. I have never been good at stabilizing dreams, usually flyign does it. So I tried to typical "Dream Stable" but it only went to get more blurry "More Clarity" but it did not help until the dream started to fade even more.

I had a false awakening in my bed and I told my self that I had to do better, so I woke up and went to drink water. As I was going to drink water, I felt the dreamy feeling and looked at my hand. One of my fingers was about a foot long and very thin. I also touched it and followed it with my hands. I laughed at my mind trying to trick me again. Now I was in my regular home, typical place where my lucids starts, so I opened the door and took off.

It was night and the sky was full of stars, as if there was no city lights contamination. I was in awe as I love the stars as I am never able to see so many. I also saw the moon and a clock with 7:83 time, the clock was like a modern alarm clock, floating around.

As I flew to the stars, I saw a huge weird mall and decided to land. As I landed, it became day again. I realized that the dream was blurry, so demanded for Clarity with a bit of success. As I went inside the mall, it looked like a Costco store, but I realized it was outdoors, as I felt the wind and the sunlight.

The dream started to fade,and asking for Clarity did not work. So I told my self that I would pretend to put my glasses on and so, have a better view. I had to do this a few times, and I went from very blurry to a bit more clear, like when you visit the eye doctor. This was not working, so I told myself I would pull my actual glasses out from my pocket, I did with success and the dream went very clear.

I was walking by some tourist area and there were families having coffee in a terrace and kids running. I went to an area that were selling wine and I saw a bottle of "Vina Tondonia Rioja" labeled as "California Wines" I was like surprised and then reminded myself I was in a dream. A dream Character told me, "Drinking american wine is like drinking water with sugar, this ain't no wine and you know it, go European." I laughed and left.

I was now next to some expensive liquor and jewelry and there were some security guards looking at me and saying in a whisper that I was suspicious, but I could hear them. I just kept exploring the mall and reminded myself of the Task of the Year... I realizing that being mid October is late to get started, but I wanted to push my self, so I recalled I had to go to the Colosseum and fight a Gladiator.

I went through some doors and told myself I would find the Colosseum, to only find the female restroom! I tried twice and only found toilets and the janitor room. However, I saw an older door, very rusty. I focused on it and opened to find the colosseum.



It was kind of buried and in a much worse shape than it is right now but the roof kind of blew away and suddenly, I was in the real Colosseum. I saw a chariot with two horses attaced to it standing in the middle of the Colosseum







There was a gladiator looking at me and there was a second chariot that was empty. There was no one else and I said out loud, "Public!" And the Colosseum started to fill up with people, cheering at a high volume. I was surprised to be able to summon so many DCs, as that is not one of my best abilities.

As I was going to jump on the chariot, some other guy did first, but I knocked him out as I had to do the fighting. Rather that the usual Colosseum fights, this one was more of a crashing fight. The horses were gone and even though I was still in a roman chariot, it had now an engine and we started to drive, hitting each other and forcing each other to crash, until his chariot blew up, giving me the victory.

I was happy I completed the firs ToTY and decided to wake up myself to write it down.

Fragments for 10-18-13 (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Something about doing rodeo while riding a flying horse (it was not a unicorn, it was a regular horse that could fly without wings) I was trying to catch another flying animal (that does not fly in real life)

Something about Atlantica Online test server.

I was dreaming about jumping around in a 3-D videogame-like landscape with lots of green hills. I turned around in mid-jump and saw a huge Sasquatch-like thing. I decided to ignore it since I jumped a safe distance away and it didn't seem to notice me. It disappeared and when I turned back around I became lucid. This was a very clear and vivid lucid; I felt like I was completely awake in the dream. I told myself "I'm lucid! I'm in a dream, I can do anything!" I tried to think quickly about how I should use the opportunity before I woke up. My initial reaction was to attempt to fly but then I thought "No, too generic." so I decided that I wanted to conjure up a "mana ball" between my hands just to launch it somewhere. As if in response a wizard appeared in front of me. While I tried to conjure it I was sort of confused as to why he was there. Then I thought maybe he was just symbolically there, "teaching" me how to conjure so I could do it. I tried to make a mana ball appear by focusing between my hands until I woke up. I wish the visual quality of the dream landscape was more realistic than a video game, and that I conjured a mana ball, but the level of lucidity was remarkable.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was at home and playing some video game.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was watching some anime that looked like naruto series then there was some fight and characters met someone in a cave.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing some platformer and there was one level in huge building with windows, lots of stairs and doors locked with keys.

Dream 4:

I was apparently in some shmup game flying through skies controlling some spaceship and i had to fight enemies that looked like mashup of fraxy parts and apparently lego parts. The level progressed into some kind of space station and my weapon became weaker. Then after a while i was randomly back at home, every monitor was playing various anime and i walked to another part of the house, i came to a window and suddenly i was back in shmup game fighting more enemies in the skies. Then level boss appeared which was some kind of grey space plane thing.

Dream 5(fragments):

I was in some kind of flatland place and i was talking to somebody, he was saying that we have not enough resources to get better at the game or something like that.

Dream 6(fragments):

I had to destroy some mechanism part by part and then there was some old man with pink beard.

My sleeping schedule has stabilized and my body has recovered from that spicy hot sauce incident, so I am starting to recall more dreams and also longer dreams. The vividness of the dreams appears to be the same though. I feel like now I just need to work on increasing the vividness and length of my dreams and it should be much easier to do an RC inside one and become lucid.

I actually wrote down the second dream first, then as I was trying to go back to sleep I remembered the first dream, that was pretty lucky and I'm glad I managed to remember it.

Dream 1: I remember eating a bunch of foods, not particulary which kind of foods, but was supposedly in a place halfway between the middle floor of my house and some sort of mall with a clothing store, that looked similar to the layout you see in the clothing store the members of the Jersey Shore worked at, except there was a tv on the right wall. I was watching one channel on the tv on the wall from outside in my chair when my brother, sister, and my sisters friend Tori came into the store. Joey changed the channel but I didn't bother him about it for some reason.

I am not actually sure if this next part is part of the same dream or different dream, I'm going to go ahead and just make it Dream 2 just cause i feel like it. :cheeky: But there is definitley a gap here in my dream recall :shock:

Dream 2: I remember it was a big group of people going to this giant parking garage, like something had just ended. I was rollerblading around the entire place while people were talking, and getting in cars. I saw this girl from my high school although she had twins of herself, they were both extremely hot. I saw my first girlfriend ever from middle school (also pretty hot xD), and pretty soon I fell over on the rollerblades. There was this food stand and my friends Andrew and I think it was Sancho were holding up a giant bag of sandwhiches/subs. They were all storing the food away for whatever wasn't sold at the high school reunion or whatever it was. The lady running the stand said we could take as many sandwhiches as we want. I tried to grab some but couldn't stand up because I was on rollerskates. Andrew and Sancho kept grabbing a bunch of sandwhiches, then I just took the whole bag because they were being douchebags.

Dream 3: I had a dream similar to another one where I'm going through a mall thats closing down. On the top floor there was a movie playing so me and a bunch of other people went to go see it. Then a few people, around 10 or so including me went on a road trip to the beach, I don't remember much of this part but it took a while, maybe 5 minutes or so. Anyways once we get to the beach we start playing volleyball. My friend Andrew is with us except he is on the other team, theres also a lot of fat women for some reason, but mostly just normal strangers. I start out being in the back and I'm always the reason our team is losing points. I decide to go up to the front and start spiking it, and we start winning points. Then I start bragging saying stuff like is that all you got? and I tell them I'm ready for round 2 lets go. Then we are in some area and everyone is in this small room and crowded around cause there's so much of us. Most guys have a girl around their arm and I don't then this girl comes up to me and gets under my arm, didn't even say anything wtf. Then my friend Andrew walks by with an attractive girl on his arm as they walk by, then as I'm about to walk out the door theres this girl with a massive butt that says "aww ill be your girl" then she twists her hips up and almost slams them down on me, I try to hold the bottom of her butt to reduce the blow, but not try to grope her. Then I walk outside and I get stopped by a lady police officer, she looks like an old teacher or someone but I just can't point out exactly who she is. She stops me and says I got something in my arm. I have no idea what it is but I say oh it's probably nothing (it might be drugs or something). She takes out a wooden paddle and starts rubbing my skin with it to find out what it is. I kept telling her how its ok and it's probably just something stupid, trying to get her to stop. She keeps going and eventually a plushie football comes out of my arm... WTF!?!?!, then she opens up the football and says "ICE CREAM", I look inside expecting ice cream but theres just a tiny plushie ball inside. Then I wake up. craziness I tell ya :panic::panic:


EDIT: Just remembered last night I also had a dream fragment where I was just watching this movie, the dream was just the screen and I was not even watching the movie in the dream it was just the screen. The movie was about like a behind the scenes look at a Led Zeppelin that is going to be coming out soon. (not in real life)

Night #2 of the Competition and I really did some preparation. I went for two hours to the local shopping park and tried out my latest plan of looking at people (particularly their hands) It's surprisingly difficult because many people's hands were clenching something or pushing something, so it was difficult to get a clear view. (More about hands later.) I worked out my tasks in the event of a lucid awakening (which there wasn't)

1,10 AM
A dream fragment. It was something about "remembering my dreams" ??????

4.15 AM
Another fragment. Some sort of lecture by "Nigel Haslam" about the benefits of using charcoal as a drawing medium??? I know no "Haslams" I don't think I've ever been aware of it as a name and I'm no kind of artist. I Googled "Nigel Haslam" There's lot's of them and nothing really stood out.

Woke at 6.00 AM.I never need an alarm now.I always wake some time between 5 - 6 AM (ideal for WBTB's)
Did a WILD at 6.30 (failed) There should have been signs of REM starting but there was absolutely nothing...I gave up after an hour.

I'm very sensitive to the onset of REMs whenever I'm awake and resting (slight tremor and flashes in my eyes) This is confirmed by my known night REM periods.I lay there awake and feel immediately when REM starts. I know that I seem to have three REM periods during the day Sometime around 1 PM...again around 4.30 PM and around 9 PM.

9.30 AM
! went to a childminder, to pick up my nephew (it certainly looked like him...except he's 25) As I arrived I could hear her really sounding-off at someone...it was just DC-babble to me but she sounded very unpleasant. A young man appeared (he apparently worked there) He looked decidedly uncomfortable to see me and he quickly disappeared

My nephew came out and I asked him if I could collect him immediately He said "no" because he had to have some tea or something. I asked him if he was happy there and he was very guarded and finally said "no". He asked me to call at the shops while I waited and get him a cake. Somewhere along the way I was grubbing about in some soil (why is lost in the mists) I remember looking at my mud-caked hands(major DS) and wondering where I could wash them because I would be embarrassed (major DS) to go into the shop with dirty hands.

I sit on the side of the bed and quickly write all my dreams down then fall back...trying to avoid waking too much. So the implications of the dreams doesn't hit me till I come to post on-line.

Conclusions
"Remembering my dreams" Why didn't that trigger an RC?...mud-caked hands That's only the second time I've seen my hands in a dream. The first time they were bandaged...now they're mud-caked. My own brain will only present my hands when they're covered with something? I've read that you can't look in a mirror. True or false? If true, are all these things for the same reason?...to limit the chances of "dream recognition?"

And embarrassment again...helping to muddy the waters as well. It's now a major DS so, hopefully that might kick-in on one of my dreams. It makes a kind of sense to me that our brains may be configured to inhibit chances of accidental lucidity...by seeing our own hands or faces. So maybe "nature" isn't too pleased when we humans "boldly go where few have gone before" and bends over backwards not to be too helpful.

It's a thought...

First lucid : [COLOR="#008080"]I'm in a supermarket, I do a RC and realize I'm dreaming.I think about what I should do and suddenly remember to stabilize.I stabilize and the dream becomes clearer. Kris suddenly appears and we look for some kind of shoes when mom comes and drags me to a cake shop. She tells me that she ate some really nice cake and that I should try it too. I tell mom that I'm too busy. I look a bit inside the cake shop and I see a cake that I actually ate in real life before. I change my mind and tell mom that I'll eat that cake to see if it tastes as in real.The dream skips to the back of my apartment block(It's night) and I see that purpleish portal in the sky, I try to fly to it but couldn't so I give up. I walk more and notice there's a party not far away from here. I check my pockets for things and I find my katana.I tell myself : Yes, One of my goals is to fight a monster, I should try it. I walk faster and see 2 rocks on the ground. I grab one from the ground and feel the coldness. (I know I did way more things but this is pretty much all I remember)[/COLOR]

2nd Lucid : [COLOR="#008080"]All I remember is that I woke up and made a RC. I realize I'm dreaming so I go to the window and rip off the curtain. Mom comes to me and tells me : What the fuck you think you're doing? I respond: Mom, Don't ruin this lucid, Please, Go do something else. She's like : What are you talking about? This is not a dream, go back to sleep! I listen to her and lose my lucidity.[/COLOR]

Dream 3 : [COLOR="#800080"]I'm in some kind of a mall and there are many slides inside it. I see a guy from real life and I try to pretend I didn't saw him while laughing at mom playing at the slides(All of us had the same hoodies). He comes to me and asks me if I remember him. I say yes and then the dream skips to a playground. I'm sitting on the ground near the guy and mom is also here(fu). I'm for some reason in my bra and his friend tries to get it off. I put it back and the other guy tells him it's not funny and then slaps him. The guy says sorry and I nod. [/COLOR]

[COLOR="#008080"]I stand up from my bed and the first thing that comes in mind is RC. I do it and realize I'm dreaming. I look around the house and then the dream skips to a really nice place(Cherry blossoms, benchs etc.)I go and sit on the bench when a purpleish portal appears and 2 girls come from it. They looked like twins, One of them had blonde hair with blue eyes(Sunny) and the other one had black hair with red eyes(Dani). They had their hair tied up in a ponytail and they also had straight bangs. They asked me if I remember them.I tell them that I don't remember them so they fly away sad.I try to fly to them but couldn't. [/COLOR]

I was most definitely not myself.

There I was, a much younger woman than I am in waking life, sitting in the backseat of a limo with this handsome guy. There were others in the limo too, I vaguely noticed, but I really was paying attention only to him. As we exited the limo, he gave me a brief kiss on the lips. "Finally!" I thought, "I had been beginning to fear this was just platonic."

As we exit the limo, I notice an assacination attempt in progress. All I remember was that the assessin was also female but older than me. I do not remember the victim. I believe I used magic to stop the attempt, but the details are vague. I also have some vague memory of there having been a prophecy about all this in my dream.

Though the assessin had been female, but now the bad guy was male, and he was furious at my boyfriend and me for meddling. He captured us, and I thought he was going to kill us, but my boyfriend explained that he would throw us into an opium den and make us addicted to drugs.

At first we were unable to move or think much, but then I remember a more vivid moment. I saw my boyfriend grabbing some candy and said something along the lines of "don't, it's probably drugged," but he did not care.

Now I am going to spend a while awake, and then WBTB.

I'm at Daryl's old house in my home town. I walk inside, and it now becomes a big factory.

I'm now watching Connor McGregor and someone who may be or looks like Mike Pyle. It's the first couple of seconds of the fight, and Connor catches Mike with a right handed jab, which makes him stumble onto his backside.

Now I see Diego Sanchez (DS). I hear someone say that they miss the DS of old. DS says that he could win the belt once he beats Connor.

I'm walking outside, on a deck that's built above the water. I'm trying to make my way back to somewhere. As I reach the corner, I see that I'm blocked by 3 ladies. I think it's a ladies only entrance. Some of the ladies get up and allow me to pass. One of the ladies jumps into the water, so I decide to join her and follow. I reach a door and see a box. I open the box, expecting something to be inside, but it's empty. I wander around outside, searching for something.

Dana White has told me that when I go inside the factory no one will be there. I realise I won't be able to see any dream characters etc. (I think Dana meant, when I'm not in the factory people are there, but as soon as I enter, they leave

I try and sneak around through the front door to exit the back door to hopefully fool one of the fighters into thinking I'm not coming towards them. I start to wake up and I see the back door, but it looks like it's fading. I try to focus on the scene which makes it more vivid, but I lose it eventually.

False Awakening:
I check my iPod touch to see how long I have until I have to wake up. I guess the time would be around 8.50am, but it's 8.35am

Dream Fragment:
I fall over unco and I get back up.
