All DJ Entries

I’m racing Rane around the yard of grandma’s house. I’m going really fast, it’s so fun. At one point I really push myself and feel the strain. On the fourth lap, I see she’s not far behind me so I concentrate really hard on getting to the end mark.

I remember seeing a bunch of vivid green leaves on the trees on the left on one lap.

-Lost a dream due to not realizing I was awake. I got a glimpse but lost it before I could try and coax it out. :/

Inspiration: Rane was over last night until late. Can’t believe I didn’t have ‘running’ as a goal already since I love it so much IWL.

Edit: Just this could have come from Cheetu from Hunter x Hunter since I had just seen an episode with him, and I had added running like him as a goal recently.

Notes: I stayed up an hour late hanging out with my besty since it was her birthday. It’s probably when I’m really tired, but I noticed that sometimes I won’t realize that I’m awake and going through my dream in my head until the memories start fading. Sucks!

I joined the Intro Class yesterday evening, and am going to be working on the DILD technique for a while. :3

Dream recall from today's nap, had some problem of not being able to fall asleep at first but in the end still got lucid for a bit.

Dream 1:

I was playing some shmup and it was final stage. It was happening over some kind of futuristic base and there were lots of very hard enemies which i've had to stream along the screen almost op to the upper right corner. It was pretty hard and i was on last life in the end, the base segment of the level ended with a descent into darkness, there was an final boss warning, then it faded out.
I wake up and i feel that i am dreaming, i look at my hand and it's a bit weird, then i get up but dream fades, and this time i wake up properly.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was playing some kind of FPS that was a mix of different games, namely Quake 4, Doom 3 and Prey(Funnily fitting since they all use same base engine), i was going through a bunch of 'testing' maps which were mostly bland rooms with weapons and enemies, i was fighting Doom 3 enemies using quake 4 weapons, then quake 4 enemies using prey weapons, and so on. Then there was another similar map, i've had rocket launcher thing from prey(forgot how is it called) and some ammo, but enemies were quite unique. There were a few enemies that looked a bit like 'harvester' enemies from prey, except they didn't had robotic parts and were fully organic, then there were also jumping mutant pigs, some kind of three headed mutant and some another humanoid enemy. At one point i was out of ammo for rocket launcher thing, but i've had some huge bomb that finished the rest.

This is the first of four lucid dreams from last night. I took the last of my galantamine and had an odd number of pills so I ended up taking 12mg with 500mg Choline. The effects of it seemed really strong. I had that buzz feeling that I got the first few times I started using it and about and hour total of wakefulness. I got to try a couple of personal goals and although things didn't quite go as planned I was still very pleased.

#228 - WILD - 3:10AM

I do a full WILD and start feeling funny in my body. I keep getting moments of floating sensations and a strangeness in my head that could only be the starting stages. Then I get a strong floating feeling and latch on to it. I am dumped out of bed and can hear a tearing sound like the sheets where ripping. I get up and go into the next room. Everything is well lit and vivid. Suddenly something touches my arm. It was my wife she had moved a little. Then the whole bed shakes as she rolls over. This wakes me up a little and I have to start over. I am still in the zone and get back to it quickly.

The next transition is a little forced and blind until I get outside. I see some man sitting on the steps. His head is shaved and he looks like he may be Philippino or Mexican/Asian. I feel like I know him and have a good feeling about his being there. I really want to see his face. I say something to him so he will look but he does not move. So I keep him in sight as I circle around. He has that "familiar" face but I don't feel like it's anyone I actually know. I later wish I had stopped to really talk to him but right now I am on a mission to get to the Moon and look back at Earth.

I say to the man, "Come one, man. Are you ready for this? The Moon is going to be awesome!" He makes no reply so I forget about him. I look up and see a waxing gibbous moon bright in a clear night sky. I look at it to focus fly towards it. As I focus on it I relax and my body floats up slowly then pauses. The light of the moon becomes too bright and is white washing everything. I look down and see that I am only just above tree level. The man is just sitting on my porch steps looking up at me. I focus again my vision around the moon distorts like it should. I thing I am about to go but the light blinds me again and everything turns white. I close my eyes and feel an intense acceleration.

The next thing I see is a strange vortex in the middle of a low resoltion nebula and stars. I enter it without thinking and blackness gets me again. I don't worry about it. I just switch to physical sensations. I start feeling around on the ground for moon sand. It takes a lot off effort but after some time I can feel like I am grabbing handfuls of sand. I feel around some more and feel a rock. I bang it on the ground and hear a hollow underwater clunking sound. I feel like this is good enough and begin to peer into the back of my eyelids like I am trying to see in low light. After a second or two, I see gray sand in front of me and I am on my hands and knees. I look up and see a blurry moonscape horizon. I get up and look for Earth.

Out to my left there is another moon sized object hanging in blackness. It doesn't look like Earth at all. Instead it looks reddish with swirling orange stripes and large knobs protruding uniformly around it. There seems to be no dept of atmosphere and it all looks like its made of clay. Disappointed, I look down at the moon I am on and it too has taken the appearance of clay. I no realize this moon is way too small. It seems more like an asteroid. I jump on it for fun and the entire moon bounces and gives with my weight. I then decide that is needs to rotate and I make that happen by planting my feet and spinning.

Not wanting to give up, I look again for Earth but on the other side. I see a very Earth like planet but it too has no depth and looks to be made of clay. I jump to it and orbit it hoping things will become more life like. It does not. It's literally like a giant ball of clay. I try falling to the surface wondering if it will take me back home. The dream goes dark again and I feel like I am falling for just a moment. I suddenly open my physical eyes and wake up.

non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

I am invited to go down a wormhole and on the other side I find a "Wonderland" type of place. As I walk down a hallway, I encounter tiny doors, which open to tiny worlds or encounter strange living paintings that suck people into really dark places. At a gate I find some guards and some stalls with weapons and all kinds of acessories. We are to enter an RPG game and must "wear" the character of our choice. But the best weapons are gone, I look for a sabre and can't find any, nor long swords. All there's left are big knifes and whips. I grab the nicest looking big knife, a handbag and then I look at the shoes and instead of all the heavy boots, I go for the only pair of white vynil bowling shoes that match my black with white stripe outfit I am wearing. Inside the gates, is not like I expected. It's a complex world, with flying palaces and I end up in one. Everybody is dressed up like for a ball and I feel dislocated. On this palace it seems to be happening some kind of event with workshops and I find it all so odd. I decide to attend one workshop to see what's the topic and they are discussing the "Theory of Everything" and I hear them advancing the explanation for the link between quantum physics and general relativity. It has something to do with dark matter and I am wowed because it makes sense and appears to be so simple.

I did not have sufficient system access to do differential comparisons.

Hmm, I had the strong sense that this DJ entry was just like another one I had recently, but I cannot find it, so maybe I had another dream like this recently and did not write it down?

9/15/2013, 10:05-5:50

I got off the computer at 8:25 last night. Didn't meditate, too busy talking with my family. Went to sleep at like 10:05, couldn't fall asleep till 11:00.

Dream 1:

I was in a town, and there was an arena in it. I went into the arena and forgot the rest of what happened. There was also the number 20 somewhere.

Wake-up (3:42):

Got up to go to the bathroom and drink some water. Thought about having an LD and stayed up for 3 minutes till 3:45 (numbers are in order ). Then, I fell asleep around 15 minutes later, and had a "lucid moment". Woke up a few seconds afterwards, probably too excited.

Dream 2:

This one was pretty long. I was in a barn at first. Well, a barn that was somehow turned into a bar. I saw these four suspicious people. They were all fat; really fat. One was an Indian guy, another was African-American guy. There was also a fat white woman, and a fat white guy with glasses. They were all staring at me and talking to each other.

So I left the bar and met my dad. We went to someone's house (a redneck-ish person) that looked EXACTLY like mine! Dad and I stayed there for a few hours, talking with the guy. There was also this cute curly blond daughter the guy had. I think I talked to her. All was well when, eventually, I saw the four fat people again! They were on the back deck of the house. My dad and the redneck guy were in the living room, talking, while I was with his daughter standing, staring at the 4 trespassers. They tried to quickly open the sliding screen door, but I quickly locked it with every lock there was (which, apparently, was that driving lock thing and three regular door locks on the side, more than it actually has). The 4 people then got angry, and entered the house through a secret door that I NEVER NOTICED before (sarcasm) that somehow went into the basement. I started screaming, "THEY'RE IN THE BASEMENT! THEY'RE IN THE BASEMENT!" Our parents and us quickly got up and went into the master bedroom. The redneck guy was trying to open the gun safe, when the four fat people came into the room, each carrying a pistol.

The Indian guy then started pointing his gun at everyone, along with the white guy. The Indian was talking about something, probably to do with this being a robbery. He pointed his pistol at me, saying, "I'll shoot him!" (or something to that effect) and I then crossed my arms and rolled to the side, thinking he doesn't know where my chest is, if he shot me (lol what the heck was I thinking?). I then realized my arms were crossed and put them behind my back, palm in palm against the wall. My dad then said, "Okay. Let's go sit in the living room and negotiate something." (or, again, something like that) and all the adults left, leaving me and the girl in the bedroom.

I tried to open the gun safe. It had a fairly sharp point at the top, and the top number was 2000! I then saw the girl go into the closet. I asked, "Why you going in there?" She said, "I don't want them finding me when I come back." I then decided to climb in with her. I then got this feeling we were gonna end up making out, and the dream ended.

REALITY CHECK POTENTIAL
REFLECTIONS

So I went to bed at i dunno, 1am or something last night! I woke up about one or two hours later, and i was having an awful sleep. NIGHT TERRORS!

1)I felt like I was having 1,000,000 thoughts every second. It was mentally exhausting and I felt like it was never going to end. I would drift in and out of sleep, each time feeling relieved that it was gone, only to realize it was still there. It was as vivid as real life, but as terrifying as a nightmare or a bad trip. I reckon it may be cos I haven't smoked in a week or so.


I was extremely relieved to realize this had all gone after I actually woke up, went to the loo and got back into bed. Honestly one of the worst experiences of my life! The rest of my dreams were nicer :- )

2Tom, Will, Ashley, Charlotte and I were seeing yung lean live in Sweden. It was cloudy but warm, and we were walking across a courtyard area of a primary or secondary school. It looked like England, but I knew it was Sweden somehow. In addition, my mates dont like yung lean much so why we would all travel across Europe to see them I do not know XD It was in a very familiar setting; the school courtyard looked like my secondary school, although at the same time it looked nothing like it, same goes to the church. We'd been there previously to see Yung Lean, hense why I recognized it. It's great that you can get nostalgic or vaguely recognize something existing only in the dream world There was also a grand piano next to a grunden, which in particular looked similar to my secondary school. Inside the church, it was suitably light. We were all sat on plastic blue chairs. I remember hearing them playing Ginseng Strip 2002, and it was excellent. They did the usual dances, it was more chilled out though than their online performances. More like the Hurt video performance. Mum was sat with my Nan a few meters to the right of me, and Mum thought it was funny.

3) I was in Tom. R's living room with Latham. C, Luke.Y and Harry.H. It was late, must have been about midnight. It was light in the room but very dark outside. I was getting bored and was ready to leave, but I wanted to stay at the same time as someone had weed and I wanted to smoke up big time. I decided to bare with it for a while, and asked Latham over politely if I could blag a lift off of him later on in the night. He said that was fine, but started to get ready to leave. I didn't want to leave anymore as I knew they'd be smoking up soon, but I didn't want to be rude as he was going out of his way to drop me home. Harry. H had been meaning to drive home too, but claims he accidentally ended up getting really stoned which was a problem as he wanted to drive home. In the car with Latham it was dark other than the red lights of his dashboard. It was awkward and naff as I didn't want to leave but I appreciated his effort, and he wasn't going home - literally dropping my home then returning to Tom's! Latham didn't have a clue where I lived which was kind of a kick in the teeth, as we were best friends as children and were always round each others houses. When I explained to him where I lived, he mocked me as it was only a 10-15 minute walk away, calling me lazy. This was true, but I didn't really care. Tom's house had moved - it was now where Ollie.P used to live! When I got home, I sat on the sofa with my Dad. Everything was cool with him. The setting suddenly changed from the familiar living room to an unfamiliar, grey, but welcoming doctors surgery during the day. I feel like this may have been a completely separate dream. We were still sat on the sofa, and the television was still in front of us, but it was higher up on a wall bracket now. We were watching some sort of weird, Japanese advert for stopping racism. I said it was so dated, but my Dad just said it simply wasn't my cup of tea. It was my cup of tea though! The people were in some sort of large metal tank, much like a boiler, and it had a modified robot brain inside it. After a while, Dad said to me, "I hate to ask this, and I know it's boring. I know you quit the fags, but what about other stuff? Like weed?" There was a long pause here whilst I tried to figure out something to say. Normally I would just deny it, but something felt quite casual and honest about this experience, even though I knew it wasn't. I was going to tell him that I just smoke occasionally, which is true, and that I can turn a joint down these days...not so true The pause made it extremely awkward and obvious. My mum said something, but I didn't hear it, so to speak. It was like sound inside my mind, saying "Everytime Tracey and I walk past you she asks 'Is that smell what I think it is?' and I can't just keep lying to her!".

4) Luke A, Liam C and Gary. P were all very stoned inside one of their bedrooms. It was a small room, and very dark. The haziness of the hotboxed smoke made it even darker, making the view of them almost grainy. Luke A had been told to put some very large headphones on, and was listening to something.

5) Bryn had invited Tom, Will, the girls and I round his house for a smoke up. I was in the back of my parents car on the way home from somewhere. It was a nice day - sunny and warm, with a few clouds here and there. I knew I wanted to go to Bryn's and so did my parents, but they drove straight past his house as they wanted to go home first, for some reason. This was annoying, as it would mean we would have to make another trip, and I didn't see the logic in it. When we got home and I was in my living room, my parents decided they didn't want to drive me to Bryn's. No particular reason, just didn't want to! This meant I had to walk - LONG! I realized that if I ran I could probably be there in 15 minutes. Bryn, Will and Tom and maybe the girls were already there, in a room I'd never seen before. I was hoping they'd not start smoking before I arrived. Bryn claimed his bud was extremely potent, but he had very little of it.

6) I was at my local Green with my manager Lynsey's daughter Emily. It was about 7pm on a summers evening, and the weather was beautiful! It was still quite light, with the light glimmering through the trees. Lynsey's car pulled up by the back bench, so Emily and I walked towards the black large car. I went to Lynsey's side of the car - she was driving, and she had her window winded down. She recently had a miscarriage, and this was the first time I'd seen her since, but she looked well. I found it strange that she was driving and not her husband, who was in the passenger seat.

Am I down-hearted? Nope. With every setback I've so far discovered another avenue of exploration. I had one small memorable dream + a potentially good one about a holiday camp...and I overdid "remembering" again and fell back to sleep.

7.00 ish I'm sitting on a chaise-longue with a group of people and we all had our legs outstretched and pointing towards a fireplace. The woman next to me put one of her legs on top of mine...then the other. That's it...it's not much, but it's enough for me...

I keep a record of the stuff I eat. Food must play a part in how we dream...else how would we get our main source of melatonin in the winter? On both lucid nights I had blueberries, coleslaw and a small coffee when I WBTB. I very rarely eat coleslaw and I've been missing out the coffee, the past few nights...in case it's been contributing to the difficulty in quickly going back to sleep

People my age tend to be deficient in melatonin but I'm reluctant to take too many substitutes because there are known health-risks. My age-group is likely to be the group who should perhaps sway their diet towards certain foodstuffs because we are most likely to be deficient in certain things that perhaps aid LD. Sour cherries are a good source.

Sour cherries are a new super-food (and, of course big business know this and they're relatively expensive and fairly difficult to get in the UK) Anthocyanins are the likely "helpful" ingredient. Fruits and vegetables rich in anthocyanins include blueberry, cranberry, bilerry, red raspberry,blackberry; blackcurrant, cherry, Concord and muscadine grape, red cabbage, and violet petals (you can eat violet petals! look out neighbours, I'll be like a rampant sheep) Stuff the cherries, most of these are cheaper...especially neighbours violets...I'll eat 'em in-situ

Coleslaw is presumably beta-Carotene. (again caution needed re amounts) Includes cantaloupe, mangoes papayas, carrots and yams. spinach, kale and superfruit Vietnamese Gac (10 times higher than carrots, for example.) I'll be out looking for Vietnamese neighbours...and definitely coleslaw's on the menu boys!

Most of my blather can be read elsewhere on this site anyway,. Ever onwards...

I remember being in a room. I could hear someone making noise in the distance, as if it was in another room.
Someone said to me that it was Lyoto Machida (MMA/UFC Fighter). He yelled out to us to let us know what he was doing. I think he was running the water in a bath, and it may have been the pipes rattling.

Lyoto Machida - UFC Fighter



[Scene Change]
I was on a platform in the middle of the water. We were all playing around with each other. Someone decided to raise the stakes, and pulled out a gun. The gun was a grenade launcher which explodes on impact. One of guys shot two people off the platform. The two people that got shot had left there gun's and ammo behind, as if it was a video game (Battlefield 3). I walked up to the gun and ammo, and tried to equipped the gun, but instead equipped the ammo. I tried again, and now had the gun in my hand. I shot the grenade at the feet of two people, and they went flying off the platform. They got back up onto the platform, still alive. I was lining up one of the guys and he was too, ready to shoot each other. I freaked out as I thought I might have been shot first. I was rolling around on the floor while still aiming. I ended up bailing and rolled off the ledge. As I was falling I tried to shoot him.

I was picked up by an inflatable boat. I was getting rushed to a medic as I must have been hurt. I suddenly realised that this wasn't right and that I must be dreaming. I didn't use a RC as I was certain it was a dream. I was now yelling out orders to the driver. The boat turned around and bounced off a wall. I willed the boat to go fast, which worked. I launched myself into the air to fly. I was idle in the air and saw a lot of people on a wooden deck. They must have been having a gathering. I flew towards the deck and started to fly higher. I could see everyone's head raise up in awe of me flying.

Dream ended.

I was in bed with Kayley, at a unknown house.

A group of ladies were about to arrive to stay the night. As they arrived, Kayley said that she would go. There was about 4 to 5 girls. As the entered the bedroom, they seemed to be disappointed, as If I wasn't what they expected. I was chatting with them all, trying to make everyone feel comfortable. I was keen on one of the girls and tried to work some game on her.

We were all sleeping, and I rolled over towards the girl I was keen on earlier, and put my hand on top of hers. She smiles at me. I noticed I had winter gloves on my hand. She moved her body a little closer to me, and giving me the all clear to make a move. She lifted her neck and I went in to kiss and suck on her neck. I think I stopped sucking or she moved away, but I felt the sucking sensation even though I had stopped sucking on her neck. She said to me that I was a genius for working my game on her. We both rolled back over and went to sleep.

Still in bed, I could hear a voice getting called out. I think it was Ben (Big brother contestant). Ben, Ben, Ben, I could hear in the room. I asked who was saying that. I thought it was funny considering it was him saying it.


Ben - Big Brother

I was at my old house in Blacksland. I was sitting on the couch in the lounge room. Sitting next to me was a celebrity named Dannii Minogue.

Some other celebrity mentioned that Dannii was a throw back, as a joke. I asked them what did you mean by throw back? Dannii or the other celebrity told me that a throw back was someone who quits something. Dannii took the joke to heart and didn't feel too good about it.

The whole dream felt like it was a TV logie night (TV award show).

I was walking on my street, and noticed, that there wasn't trees. I thought that it may be a dream, made RC. Remembered about TOTM and went to the 3-stories house. i came to the wall as near as possible and went. then the house transformed into a big room, i went to the ceiling, tried to walk on the ceiling and fall down on the floor. it wasn't pain, but unpleasant. i stood up and went on the wall again and on the ceiling too. So, from the second attempt i was professional ceiling - walker There was a mirrow on the ceiling, and i saw my reflection. Then i jumped and began to loose awareness, but remembered, that i didn't sing the ABC song. i sang it twice. The voice was mine. Than i tried to make a portal to feild with Quidditch,but each time found myself in the yard with multistory buildings. and awoke.

My recall starts me walking into a parking after leaving a building and see this amazing looking car in the parking lot facing me. It looks like a lamborgini just a big thicker in the back making it look super sick and super low to the ground. I remember also seeing a honda logo on the back on the car which was random. When I get in the car and start leaving the parking lot I remember saying to myself I wish I had my aux cable to connect to my phone and then it appeared out of no where and started blasting music to the top of the volume not sure which song though. At this point I remember being the 3rd car in line at a red light and im heading left once it turns green. Then I catch a yellow light and go under a overpass with a green left arrow then Im on the highway going insanely high speeds which was amazingly vivid. I got this probably from watching transformers 3 right b4 going to sleep which mad the experience pretty fun. I then lose vividness after crossing over 3 lanes and almost crashing.

One night, the day right before my 7-10th birthday (I can't remember), I had a dream about my mom walking in to my room, waking me up, and saying she got me this movie for my birthday (Little Monsters). She explained the main parts of the movie, and as soon as she left in the dream, I woke up. Now, you have to remember I have never, NEVER seen this movie before, nor have I ever heard about it before in my entire life. Anyway, what woke me up, was my door opening. It was my mom, and she gave me this movie saying it was for my birthday, (At this point I was like, "what?") and I pretty much sat through this whole, (distorted) version of my conversation with her again, compared to my dream. Surprise, surprise! The movie was EXACTLY how she explained it in my dream. And you have to remember that I have NEVER seen this movie before.

Dream 1(fragment):

There was something about a castle.

Dream 2(fragments):

Was playing spiral knights and there was something about shadow lair run and selling armors.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was in some weird jungles with some group, one of us ventured forward and later we had to catch up to him, part of the way we were going on the top of the trees and also there were friendly dinosaurs that were helping us and i could talk with them.
