I haven't really been bothering with dream recall as of late. I can never fall asleep until after 2 or 3 in the morning, so I keep trying to sleep after I wake up. Anyway, my first dream involved my crush (I think it was at school again), but I don't remember any specific events. A few short, random dreams happened after that. In my last dream, my dad bought me an Xbox One (which doesn't come out for several months). That's really everything worth mentioning. I'll probably forgo sleeping tonight so I'll be tired tomorrow.

A lucid from Thursday night, not so interesting, but yeah.

Lucidity: 8/10
Control: ?
Vivacity: 9/10

There was a meeting at my next school, where everybody came. I got lucid when everybody just walked away and disappeared. I run around the school for a loooooot of time until I finally see someone. I decide to do something funny and I say nonsense for awhile. Then I grab her boobs and run away doings all kinds of flips. Then I see another girl but before I can do anything a big guy laughes and says "haha nope". So I prepare for a fight, but he doesn't do anything. I just begin running again until I wake up, a long time later.

My dream starts in my classroom supposedly of next year. In the classroom helping, is none other than Mark O'Mara who is the defense attorney in the George Zimmerman murder trial. My tennis coach was my science teacher, and the material was impossible to comprehend. I remember seeing my English teacher from last year in the dream. She gave me and my friend chocolate on a stick. I remember caddying at a golf course with Mark O'Mara there. Then a girl that I haven't talked to in a while favorite my tweets.

#1 I forgot most of this one. Something about some occult trying to stop my wedding to my wife. I have to fight back. I think they look like The Dark Brotherhood from Skyrim. I destroy some strange structure and some how I know that doing so killed my parents.

#2 I am walking in a park. A woman that looks like the non-cartoon version of Asian Reporter Thrisha Takanawa puts a mic in my face and asks me some questions. I tell her I don't speak Chinese. (Takanawa sounds Japanese to me) Someone tells me to just fake it. I say random nonsense stuff and they all act like I am saying something really great. (I think this is inspired by the family episode we watch before bed were Louis becomes Mayor) I see my face on a T.V. screen but it's not the news it's AFV. Apparently I didn't something stupid but funny. Something about "Cat Litter Surprise". Then they use my face to add on animations for other clips. I keep popping in saying "MONEY" in a comical German Hitler like voice. Everyone thinks it's so funny and acts like I am some kind of famous comedian.

I wake and try to MILD but I drift off into another dream

#3 Lisa from work is sitting at a table on a large deck outside.. my house? It feels awkward because I wonder if she is mad at me. She is talking to some other woman that looks like Michelle. I see bird poop on the deck and wish I had a hose to wash it off. Suddenly water starts to jet from in-between my toes on my right foot. I awkwardly wash the deck of. Lisa say's something polite to me and I respond then continue to wash the deck. I even give the grass a little water.I think, It's probably going to rain soon.

I wake up just before my WBTB alarm at 5AM. I get for a while and use MILD with mantra

#194 - 7:08AM - MILD

I am walking around some theme park with my wife that I think of as Six Flags. I think we must have ridden a few rides together. We pause looking for more stuff to do but it seems like there just aren't very many rides. She stops at some glass container full of something like Children's Miracle Network pledge cards. She is taking a bunch of pictures of random stuff then turns a takes an up close pictures of some woman and her infant. I begin to think of this a something like Disney World or Universal Studio's. I get a sense of urgency and want to make the most of our time since we probably will never come back. I become annoyed that she is wasting so much time and I gripe at her a little. She agrees and we turn and walk away now.
She seems sad and says, "Sorry you're not having any fun."
"No, it's not that.(lie) It's that we don't have much time left you are taking pictures of people's random babies." (I worded that funny in the dream. LOL.)
We look around and I feel really disappointed with this place. There just isn't much to do here. Then, I see some strange ride taking off on tracks.
My wife sees it too and says, "Ooohh nope nope nope!" and runs away. I wonder what is so bad about that ride as I chase after. We exit some glass doors and I got the feeling like the park was inside. There seems to be more stuff to do outside.

The sun is bright and I look around. There seems to be something like a park with trees and perfectly manicured lawn to the right. It looks like some people are gathering with chairs to watch a show in the shade. I see my father-in-law walking around like he works here. I notice he is wearing something like a tan Leprechaun suit complete with top hat. I find this really odd because he never wears suits and is a very large Native American. I think we should at least say hi to him before we move on but my wife is walking really fast and getting too far ahead of me. I feel torn whether or not I should follow her or talk to him. Then I see that suit again and notice he is doing something really odd. He's rubbing is hands together but has hay in-between. All this is too much and I ask myself, Am I dreaming? I think for a second, *gasp* I AM dreaming! I feel like I am about to wake up but I try to ignore it best I can.

I run over to my wife and take both of her hands. I look her close in the face and note how shifty and wavy it is but I ignore it. "Babe! We are dreaming! This is a dream!"
She doesn't say anything but she pulls away and gives me one of her you're-crazy-go-away looks. I sigh and let it go. I know there won't be any convincing her after that look. I pace in a circle rubbing my hands, thinking what my goals were. I can't seem to remember so I decide to just explore. I look out and see a small parking lot and a familiar looking street street and some building beyond. There is a red vehicle parked that looks like ours. I wonder if I am going to walk, run, drive or fly. But I really want my wife to come along so I say to her,"Well, I'm going to go do some stuff now. Are you coming?" I turn to look at her and take her hand but I wake up.

I breathed in my nose and realized I was dreaming. I got up out of my bed and walked downstairs. The house layout was completely different. I looked outside and there were huge hills. It reminded me of Ireland or somewhere like that.

I tried to shoot up into the air and fly, but I got distracted and couldn't. I walked out into ther room and there was tons of girls. I walked outside and there were a shit ton of cars for rival gangs. I jacked a car.

I drove around for a bit and then drove back. I went back to my room and a girl came in and asked me to look at her profile for modeling and acting. I then woke up.

Note: This was my first lucid since I've been practicing and there was a giant leap in quality. The dream was more like a movie than a crappy set of pictures. It was quite vivid, but I still didn't really have my full senses, awareness, or any of that stuff. It was also sort of awkward and jumpy and very short.

Lucid Dream 522: Bar King
Series: Land of Dreams, Episode 15
DILD
Technique: FA



I can remember pretty much nothing prior to having a FA (false awakening). I awoke in a strange apartment that I didn't recognize. I thought to myself, "Where the f*** am I?" It only took a couple more moments for me to recognize that this situation wasn't right. I couldn't remember how I got there, so I performed a nose pinch RC. As expected, I was actually dreaming.

I turned toward the nearby sliding glass door and attempted to melt through it. I was successful, but there was another layer of glass in front of me. I melted through it and there was, again, another layer of glass in front of me. I thought, "Oh c'mon now!" I had to phase/melt through 3 more layers of glass before finally making it outside on the balcony. I noticed glass was slowly forming in front of me again so I thought, "Ok, I've got to get the hell out of here." I took flight and quickly flew away from that house.

I decided to try and have an "Attack on Titan" dream. I flew into a town and a building caught my eye. I landed in front of it and entered. It was a bar. I walked up to the counter and said, "Give me a bottle of your finest dream vodka." She looked skeptical and said, "The whole bottle?" I gave her a, "I'm not going to ask twice" look and she handed me a bottle of gold flakes vodka. It was glowing a brilliant gold color. She held out her hand as if to take money and I said, "I own this place. I'm the master of dreams." She was taken aback and began apologizing saying she didn't know. I just ignored her and walked back to a table.

I started chugging the the bottle and I then slammed it on the ground. It shattered. The DCs looked at me strangely. It seemed they weren't sure what to do, so I shouted, "Its ok. If you want to slam your glasses on the ground, go ahead." Everyone looked timid and nervous. One guy held up a mug and, with much hesitation, let it slip out of his fingers. It fell to the ground and smashed. I cheered, "There you go! Its fun isn't it?" I grabbed a nearby mug and slammed it on the ground. The DCs all cheered and everyone started slamming bottles and mugs all over the bar. I forgot to mention, I felt the effects of the alcohol immediately after chugging the bottle.

After my glass breaking party, I walked outside and was in a fairly primitive town. I knew I was where I wanted to be. I walked up to the nearest DC and asked, "What is the fastest way to wall Maria?" The DC pointed and I took off flying in that direction. I got excited upon seeing the wall and the dream began to fade. I landed on top of the wall and immediately prepared to DEILD.

Lucid Dream 523: Titan Slayer
Series: Meiseki na Yume, Episode 5
DEILD



I smoothly transitioned back into the dream. I could tell I was now outside the walls. I was on a large, square, wooden platform in the middle of a thick forest. I could tell the trees were tall, but they only reached to the same level as my platform. I looked out into the sea of green treetops. A patch of trees to my right began shaking violently. Suddenly, battle music began playing in the background and I knew what was about to happen. A huge titan emerged from the shaking trees. It was about 20 feet taller than the treetops and the platform. I held out my arms as if I was holding two blades like the ones from AoT (Attack on Titan - A currently airing anime that is awesome. The japanese name is Shingeki no Kyojin). The blades didn't appear, but I acted like I was holding them anyway. The Titian swung its arm in an attempt to grab me. Its arms were abnormally long and stretchy. I performed a dive-roll over the arm and siced the Titans arm with my invisible blades. Its cut a bloody gash into his arm. I dodged a few more attacks and the blades were now visible and solid in my hands. I dodged an attack and then leapt behind the Titans head. I sliced through the Titan's weak spot (back of the neck) with both of my blades. It let out a monstrous groan and fell to the ground, disappearing in the sea of trees.

Suddenly, Titans began popping up all around and I cut them down one after another. The dream went into a 3rd person view as I continued to battle Titans. I noticed that I also had now become a Titan, but I was still the same height as a normal human. I was just jacked like a body builder and had the face of the Armored Titan (from the show). The dream switched in and out of third and first person as I fought a fat Titan that just wouldn't die. I finally managed to kill him and no more Titans came. I decided to head back inside the walls. I could see the wall off in the distance as I began to wake up. Again, I prepared to DEILD.

Note: This dream was sometimes animated like the show, but also was fully 3D/real world graphics at times.

Lucid Dream 524: Time to Alter Time
Series: Land of Dreams, Episode 16
DEILD



I transitioned smoothly and was back within the inner walls of the city. I decided to just explore the area. It was night time, but there were many lights and neon lights scattered throughout the city, so it was very lit up. I made my way to a boardwalk with many shops and buildings. None of the buildings here had doors and the boardwalk traveled through many of them. It was like a big, open, outdoor mall. There were people partying and setting off fireworks all around.

I entered one of the shops and saw a fortune teller-like woman seated on a fancy blanket. I had remembered something I wanted to try, just moments before. I asked the lady, "Where can I find the time dilation machine?" She pointed to a nearby door, so I proceeded through the door. I was now in a bathroom. There was an ancient metal computer-like device on the wall. It looked like a mix between a breaker box and an old apple computer. I attempted to type in 3 hours. The numbers were not being cooperative. I repeatedly typed up a jumbled mess until it finally showed "3 Hours." Of course, there were some jumbled characters on each side of the "3 Hours," but I didn't pay them any mind, I clicked the "start" button and exited the bathroom.

I went back to exploring. There were so many random shops and objects scattered across the huge boardwalk that I couldn't remember everything. There were canoe shops, fishing shops, clothing stores, fireworks venders, beach balls randomly bouncing around, tumble weed, balloons, stuffed animals, etc. There was way more shit, but that is all I remember (had wrote down). There were also open houses along the boardwalk. The boardwalk was like a huge, winding, pier on a huge lake. Anyway, I entered one of the houses and there was a pool. There was a hot, naked chick sitting on the side of the pool. There was a long line of men in front of her waiting their turn to have sex with her. I watch for a moment and pondered cutting the line and having a go. I fought off the temptation and went back to exploring.

I saw some speed boats and jet skis out on the lake, so I took off flying after them. I began chasing the speed boats around through the air, playing freeze tag with them. I was skimming the top of the water as I flew. I was "it" and soon "froze" all of the speed boats and jet skis. When I touched them, they literally froze in time. After winning the game of freeze tag, I landed back on the boardwalk. I walked into another house and there was a party going on. I saw a huge kite and attempted to fly while riding on it. I kept crashing into piles of random objects/toys/gear/etc. I could get the kite elevated, but it was out of control and crashed moments later. Always crashing into random piles of things. The dream soon began fading, so I, once again, prepared to DEILD.

Note, the dream only lasted about 30-45 mins (dream time) after I typed in 3 hours, so it didn't exactly work out .

Lucid Dream 525: Jet Gunner
Series: The Mind of a Gamer, Episode 7
DEILD



This DEILD transition took longer than usual. I got some HI of the moon and space. I could hear "My Song" playing on my computer as I transitioned into the dream (the song from the anime, Angel Beats!). I had left my iTunes up as I had been sleeping this whole time.

Anyway, I transitioned into the dream. I was in a fighter jet and was going through a video game-like stage. I couldn't control the speed or the jets direction of travel. I could strafe left and right with great maneuverability. I controlled the jet's guns with my mind. The environment went from realistic to PS3-like game graphics. I pummeled enemy jets as they approached from the background. It felt a lot like I was playing StarFox in a more realistic setting and great graphics. After a bit of this, the dream began to fade and I allowed myself to wake up in order to not forget too much of the previous dreams.

Series Details
With the dream series, "Mind of a Gamer," the gaming world and the dreaming world collide to produce a lucid paradise. Read as I take video game scenarios to the next level. Stay tuned for more entries to the series!

First I had a dream that Sam from Supernatural was a merman. Then I woke up, moved to a different bed, and went back to sleep.

Had a dream that a corrupt government was taking over. Since I was part of some kind of committee for the government, I was able to try and change it for the better as much as I could, along with my friend who was in the same situation. However, this required us to each write an essay, and after a paragraph, we both got writer's block, and couldn't complete it. Later, my friend and I plus another committee member who felt the same were all on this big floating structure that we called a planet, though it wasn't. My friend put bombs all over it and when she detonated them, we rode the explosion over to a nearby planet. Later, I'm on another planet as Arthur from Merlin, and I'm walking around a field of corn, and I come upon a house and a giant husk of corn lying on its side. If I remember correctly, I'm seeing most of it from a first person view, but I'm not actually in control of the actions. Arthur walks around, picking off a couple kernels of corn and popping them into his mouth, and makes deductions of the people who live in the house by the things he sees like Sherlock Holmes. The people come out of the house and angrily drive him away.

Later, I'm in a dream that keeps switching between first and third person. There are two slugs on a whole planet full of sentient slugs, and the corrupt government is back again. On giant screens is the one in charge, a religious leader who is completely changing the christian faith to his own desires, and almost everyone on the planet calls themselves a Christian and follows him. The two slugs are not followers, and so they're on the run from the police. They hide on top of a tall building, where there is an entrance that is nothing but a squishy hole in the roof, because apparently that's an entrance for a slug. One of them tries to go down into the building to hide, but he comes back up after going halfway through the hole because he discovers that the building is a middle school, and the hole is only large enough for middle school-age slugs, but too small for an adult. The other slug urges him on, reminding him of how good he is at squeezing through small holes. The other slug tries again, squeezes through all the way, and is crushed to death.

Later, I'm me, and I'm exploring this big living complex thing in the future. Everything is white and clean, and I'm on the first floor, which is like a grocery store. The corrupt religious leader is fully in power, although I don't mind much since I'm not from this time, and as soon as I'm done looking around, I can go back to the past before anything bad happens to me. I look around the different sections of the store - I visit one labeled on the wall as "Miel" which is "honey" in French. There are many different types of honey products, including shampoo. I leave this to go to the candy section, and grab a bunch of different stuff - chocolate with peanut butter, chocolate with M&M's, and fruit candy. However, I realize that the packet of crayons I have in my pocket is not currency, as I'd been confused about earlier. (Earlier I also gave a grey crayon to a cashier to check to see if it would work, but then I walked away before I was able to see the results.) Since I was in the future and I would have no repercussions for my actions, I decided, oh well, I'll just steal them. As I walked by the check-out lines, the lady with my grey crayon was asking whose crayon it was, and I hurriedly walked past to avoid interaction.

I found an elevator (I hadn't previously known that the floor I was on wasn't the only one) and went to the top floor. It was some sort of museum exhibition-type-thing. I waited for a bit, and the elevator went to the right, and I discovered that once you go to a floor, if you wait, the elevator will cycle through different parts of the floor for you to get off at. I wasn't interested in any of the museum pieces, which were mostly art-related things, if I remember correctly. I went to the second floor, and I found a place about frogs and slugs, so I excitedly got off there. As I looked at a giant dark brownish statue of two slugs on a branch and read about their biology, I rooted through the candy I bought to decide which one to eat first. I pulled up from my pocket a dead frog encased in chocolate, and I thought, ew, I don't want to eat a frog, I wonder why I bought that. However, I now believe that I never actually bought it in the first place.

So I've decided to do a 30-day challenge of using the SSILD technique. I have experimented with the technique before with somewhat mixed success. So this time I'm going to use nothing but SSILD for the next 30 days and record how many LD's and FA's I get. So here we go:

Day 8

Because of my recent failures in lucid dreaming the past few days, I decided to take 2 B-6's - not enough to induce an LD by itself, but hopefully enough to boost my recall and help my SSILD work better. I went to bed at 12:00, but I couldn't get to sleep until at least 1. I woke up naturally for some reason at 4:30, and then my alarm went off at 6:30, which was ridiculously stupid since I set it for 5:45. I'm 100% sure that it was my alarm going off, and I did an RC when I woke up so I'm sure it wasn't an FA. It has no snooze function on the app I was used (or at least it was disabled for that alarm), so it actually kind of pisses me off that it screwed up like that. I laid there until about 7:15 with no sign of going to sleep, so I just gave up. I do remember having 2 non-lucid dreams, but I didn't bother to write it down, so I completely forgot it... The other one was technically a fragment, but whatever.

I was in the studio audience of a 90's episode of Family Feud, hosted by Kathy Griffin (don't ask me why...). The entire set was red carpet, red seats, red everything. I was walking backstage for some reason, when these two ring girls walk out from the back door. I kind of paid them no attention and went through the door.

My failure is really starting to get on my nerves. It was even worse tonight since I couldn't even get back to sleep when I wanted to. I know it's common to have a dry spell, but this is kinda ridiculous...

Day 8: LD - 0, FA - 0
TOTAL: LD - 4, FA - 2

Dream recall from today's nap.

I was chatting with SilentEternity on skype.

I was waiting for a dressing room at a crowded thrift store. Several people crowded the area and pushed me to the back of the line. The clerk opened another dressing room area in the storage area. Once inside the room a voice said, "You want to be between 744 and 745 hz (or Mhz). But not 746." 746Hz was too high.

The voice was a clear as a bell and I immediately woke up.

Last night I was so tired of not sleeping the night before that I totally forgot meditation.
However, REM-rebound kicked in and I had awesome dreams.

1st: I was visiting the local carnival with some friends. We walked around in a huge tent with lots of people drinking beer and stuff. My friend gave me some money and we both bought the stereotypical bavarian beer. I tasted it and it was so tasty!
We then walked around some more while getting a little bit tipsy from the beer. We met other friends and that's about all I remember.

Interpretation: I couldn't get the chance to visit the actual carnival this year and I was really angry. Probably some regret-memory of mine.

2nd: I was on a castle with lots of wizards. I was a wizard myself and I had the Fairy Tail mark on my arm. Suddenly a huge army approached the castle. We were told to defend it. A bridge was seperating the castle from the army. Suddenly a huge dragon appeared and just crushed my mates. I tried to attack the dragon but it was way too strong for me. The army approached and we tried to defend the castle but we just couldn't. At some point the castle was overrun and we lost.

Interpretation: Fairy Tail rocks! I love that anime and almost every night I dream of it now.

3rd: I was sitting in the bus to my village. Some random strangers sat next to me and talked about how they drink lots of water during the day. I told them that I barely have any water with me when I go to school and we had some random conversations. I felt some kind of 'vibe' from myself that showed that I was very confident.

Interpretation: Pickup dream, I flirted with one of the strangers and I felt like I could totally control the conversation.


Had another dream but it was very personal so I'm not gonna write it down.

My plans for tonight are a little different. I'm gonna continue doing ADA but when I go to bed I'll try some self-hypnotization experiments. I've read something on a different DJ and I want to try it out.

Just recall a fragment, but there were some kind of tools which were different in some way if my children were nearby. One time I was looking for my kids who were hiding, and I was almost ready to give up when someone reminded me I had these tools in the car, and they indicated that my kids were nearby, and it turned out they had been hiding in the car.

I'm not 100% sure whether I was even asleep for this or whether it was a semi-conscious kinda weird thing... One minute I remember tossing and turning in bed, and the next... rabbits in a field, then... back to the bedroom... ???

I was talking to rabbits in a big open field, feeding them and chatting as though they were friends I was out for a meal with. That's it in its entirety!

All I remember about this was waking (or thinking I had woken) and looking over towards the bedroom door. There, floating and looking like your traditional spook, was a woman, dressed all in white and with a faint aura around her, vaguely lighting the room.

I remember that, even though it was creepy, I wasn't scared at all. It was more along the lines of 'Oh, what are you doing there?'

1. [non-lucid]

fragments:
We were talking about the dreams we had and it was my turn so I told them or at least someone did.
Was about these children that were different (maybe genetically altered), I think I may have made them in a lab of some sort.
I'm standing between a bed with a light green sheet and dark wooden shelving to my right
A guy sat on the bed writing/drawing something on some paper.
