I am using this phone and the back came off. I am just pushing it hoping the back would just click back on.

I go out side my room into the corridor of this boarding house. Every ones door is open but no room looks right. All the regular folk are gone and everyone is a stranger to me.

I talk to two guys in one room. I tell them your room is a tiny broom closet.

I start to think that this is so wrong it must be a silly dream.

Then I am walking around a huge disk. I am indoors like on a ... spaceship floating near ground level.

I see a large field of brown ponies. They begin cantering in the same direction. I look again and now I see ostriges. They start lifting wings out behind them and running in the same direction.

I am walking on the disk platform, knowing that I am dreaming. I want to fly and start jumping.

I jump a long, long time because I know this is a dream and therefore I can fly.

But like the ponies and ostriges I dont fly.

So I walk.

I lift the long white stick I am carrying and poke up to the sky. The stick tapps on a cieling far above me.

Ugh. I'm not free to fly. I am inside something. I think the ponies and ostriges are outside.

So I keep enjoy knowing that I am in a dream and I walk and walk till I wake up.

I was sitting in my car driving down the freeway. There's not much traffic and I decide to let the horses run free. I get up to about 140 MPH and all of a sudden a cop pulls on the freeway and turns dead left to drive across the lanes and cut me off. I had to turn right to narrowly miss hitting him, and it ended up freeing my tires and causing my car to spin. There was a small grassy bank on the right side of the road, and I managed to steer up the bank instead of back onto the freeway and into the wall. I was now going forward sideways, and the back end of my car barely clipped a rock on the bank, causing it to lift. My car began to rotate and flip wildly one after another spinning like crazy end to end! As I was spinning I was carefully watching the direction I was going when my windshield was facing that way and I precisely maneuvered my car in between a large tree and the giant pole used to tell the street exits coming up. My car was spinning and looked just like an Infernus spinning out in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. It finally stopped and then the engine shut off. I tried to crank it but it wouldn't start. "Damnit.. I need a mechanic.."

I hopped out of my car and started walking up the bank, there was a large group of people on the top of the bank just hanging out, and most of them seemed to be douche-y guys I know from real life. A couple of them were wearing mechanic like work clothes. I asked one of them to help me, and he said "Sure, but don't worry about that right now, come inside and hang out!" He pointed to a small pub like place that was located behind him, adjacent to the freeway. I went inside and sat at a table with a couple of girls that I knew from the real life and a guy who's a friend of mine. I was talking to them telling them what happened, and then I realized I don't know one of the girls, but I'm just friends with her on FaceBook.

When I say this girl is beautiful.. I mean this girl is Drop-What-You're-Doing-Get-Over-Here-And-Tell-Her-She's-Beautiful kind of beautiful. Just before I went to bed I was thinking "If I ever meet her the only thing I'd be able to say is --You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met--" When I met her in the dream she said "Hi. I'm Leah." and all I managed to say was "You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met Leah."

We talked for a bit and then she said she had to go, and some of the other people who were there had to go too because they were all car pooling. All of a sudden one of the waiters at the restaurant started talking like a old pervert to her. Shouting stuff in the restaurant like "I'd like to take you for a trip down memory lane little girl" and all sorts of weird pervy shit. The first time he said something I couldn't believe it. The second time he said something I stood up and told the guy "You can shut your dirty ole' pervert mouth or I won't have a problem shutting it for you." He laughed a bit and at the same time I got up another boy did too who seemed interested in Leah. Him and I looked at eachother. Competition. We put our competition for the girl aside and decided to unite over the common enemy. The old pervert said "I'd like to see you boys try... while I'm feeling up Little Miss Cutie over there."

That was all we needed, we started walking towards the guy and the other guy who was with me looked hesitant. I kept walking straight for the guy and rolled up my sleeves so as to not get blood on them. The guy looked confident that I wasn't going to punch him, but I walked right up to him and punched him right in the nose. He quickly rebutted and tried to hit me, but he was extremely slow, and I dodged it easily. The other boy now engaged to, by giving him a quick jab to the side. We fought for a bit and I pulled off some amazing fighting moves, jumping up and kicking him in the face, spinning backwards and doing backflips to avoid punches etc.

After punching and flip-kicking the guy a few times I looked out of the door behind us to see what other people were doing, thinking maybe he's had enough. I realized Leah and nobody else was even paying attention, or seemed to care. When I looked back the Pervert and the other guy were under the bed fighting. Odd. The guy said "Ok.. Sorry..." I nodded a bit and offered him a hand up, thinking I was going to bring him over to Leah and make him apologize to her. As I grabbed his hand he slipped his other hand around my ankle and tried to trip me. I quickly kicked his face and walked out. The other boy left already and was back in front hitting on Leah.

I walked out and walked right up to her and said "Hey... Let's get to know eachother better." She smiled and told me to text her, but then she couldn't remember her phone number, so she asked me for mine and she texted me so I had hers.

After that just about everyone left and I sat back down and started to tell this story to one of the patrons at the restaurant.

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 2

I went to bed at about 12:15, although I didn't finally go to sleep until almost 1. I woke up at 5:30, but instead of going to the bathroom, I just sat up in my bed since I was lazy... I then performed the cycles for about 15 minutes before I tried to go to sleep.

I was working at my job at the grocery store (I work there almost every day, so why not dream about it almost every day?). Some other employees and I were on kind of an espionage mission trying to catch this shoplifter who somehow managed to walk out with multiple 12-packs of Coke without paying. I was to keep an eye on the door and on the suspect's car. Everything was going smoothly, but suddenly the suspect's car started to pull out of the parking lot. I ran at a full sprint out the door as I yelled into my walkie-talkie, "Emergency situation. Suspect is fleeing the scene." I ran as fast as I could and tried to cut him off before he reached the street. I lunged for the car, but I missed and fell on the pavement. I then woke up.

A little more disappointing night of dreams, especially after the success I had last night, but I'm sure all techniques have their ups and downs.

Day 2: LD - 0, FA - 0
Total: LD - 2, FA - 0

I was in a group of people touring a place where there were many old, decrepit bodies, like, skin-on-bone bodies, kind of like mummies. Some of them had regular proportions, but some of them had an extremely long torso or had a really big head, etc. There were sheets covering most of them and it was expected that you pull off the sheet of each one, like, whoever made the place a tourist attraction made the tourists do that so it'd be more of a surprise, or something. Something was mentioned about The Doctor from Doctor Who, and I think one of the corpses was him, maybe. My friend made someone on the trip who I didn't know too well and I pose in front of the corpse with the big head while she took our picture. The person who I didn't know very well put his hand on the body, putting his fingers in the mouth and gripping the upper jaw/face. I was too creeped out by it to get as near to it as he was, let alone touch it.

I am in a supermarket with two girls (a blonde and a brunette) and two guys I don't know and we seem to buy stuff for a party.
I am behind a counter, where the cashier were supposed to be and I am taking his merchandise, but I am leaving the money on the floor for him to take later. He later appears and he seems dissapointed because I didn't steal from him.
Me and the other two girls are negotiating something with two merchants (I don't remember what they were selling but they both were my age). One of the merchants sais to me out loud "Do you want me to help you hook-up with your blonde friend?" to which I reply screaming "WHAT? What did you f*cking say? How dare you? HOW?" and he gets really scared. Then I say "Relax, I'm joking, but no, thanks". After this little scene, the blonde friend comes up to me and asks for my number. After some struggle I remember my number and give it to the blonde. (the strange part here is that I didn't remember my number immediately; in real life I can say my phone number without thinking at all... weird brain)
Suddenly we all have professional video cameras and we're doing a story on something.
I receive a nice shirt to try on and when I look on the mirror, I can't see anything out of the ordinary.

Dream 2:
I seem to be in a train, but I don't see myself in the train so I think I was the train.
Over to my left I see floods, houses and then a big city.
Then I enter a cave/train tunnel which collapses. There is smoke ahead and I find an entrance to some sort of room.
(now that I think of it, it kind of looked like I was playing an RPG game)
After some exploring in that room, I see a zombie and throw something at it, hitting it in the head. I don't know what it did afterwards because I left that room and woke up.

Dream recall from today's nap.

I am in another room of my home, i am sitting in chair and there's table in the middle, dad randomly walking around, and doing something, i suddenly become aware that i am dreaming but i can't move, dad comes and makes motion like he's talking but there are no words, then he disappears, i am able to move and remember my goals, but shortly dream fades out.

I was a smart young man at a university in this dream, and I was in love with a young woman who clearly was not as smart, but liked to steal the show, but I loved her, and let her. So we were doing this very important presentation in class, which I think was "Mary Had a Little Lamb", and the presentation was supposed to be mine, but I let my girlfriend be a part of it, and she insisted on being the lamb, and that was the starring role so she pretty much took over. In mid presentation, the professor took her out of class, and told her she could no longer participate, but I got mad at the professor and insisted that was not fair and participate she must because we were a team.

After all that, I suggested to my love that she and I move away to raise sheep. Apparently a cousin of mine had won a lottery, and she bought this farm, and we could go there as long as we would take the elderly cousin with us.

The cousin was not that elderly after all, maybe on the early side of retirement age, and she proved very useful as a chaperone, because along with us there also came two unmarried young women. All day long young men who lived in the area would drive up in their cars to take a look at, wave at or chat up the two maidens. The young men strangely would not even get out of their cars. The chaperone would then be with the two unmarried young women.

I wake up and have to try and sleep while trying to WILD/MILD/WBTB (I'm doing a technique, I am lost as to which one I am actually doing) and while my brain keeps shouting pain at me making me unable to relax.

I'm reversing into not remembering my dreams, barely a fragment.

1.
Nothing yet.

So I was at my aunt's house chillin', apparently I had two grown up tigers and a 3 cubs, a tiger, a fox and a wolf.
My grown up tigers started playing around the house, and eventually, they got at the neighbour's roof, I opened a garage that led to
my neighbour's house.

When I opened up the garage doors, in the distance, a car was coming towards my direction, it was a real smooth car,
like something from a pimp or something like that, the driver was Hannya, it represents a demon from japanese mytologhy I think,
you know the mask with the creepy smile and horns.

Well he just stared to directly to my eyes, I just closed the garage doors and thought to myself, "I think I just saw satan".

After that I woke up, without knowing what happened to my Tigers and my cubs .

Nothing really impressive, seems like a normal dream to me, what's interesting though it's the first dream I remember so clearly after a while,
it's been months since I got active on my dream researches and insterest on lucid dreaming.

06/21/13

Dreamscape
I wake up in bed and roll over to go back to sleep. I don't even open my eyes. There is a soft furry animal curled up next to me. I reach over and pet the animal, assuming it is going to be my kitty Midna. I am surprised when the animal says, "Pika," instead of, "Meow." A pikachu? I still have my eyes closed, but it looks like it is light in the room. I often sleep in late in the morning so it isn't unusual for there to be some light in the room, but it seems brighter than I am used to. Did I somehow leave the light on? I open my eyes and find I am looking at an unfamiliar room. It is a rather comfortable looking room. There is a table and chair in the middle of the room, I spot a black cat on the chair but it is not my black cat Shadow. I can tell this because this black cat has short hair where Shadow has long hair. The cat sits there patiently as if waiting for something. I look at the animal by my side and see it is indeed a sleeping pikachu.

He wakes up, lifts his head, looks around the room and tips one ear as if also unfamiliar with the location. I get out of the bed, turning back a floral blanket and almost tripping over a small statue of Buddha on the floor. If I didn't know better I'd think the cat snickers at me. There is also a journal on the floor with a pen. That gets my attention and I reach for it. I am just about to pick it up when someone knocks at the door. It seems like a friendly patient knock at first but it rapidly becomes impatient and then angry. Someone outside is telling me to open the door, they know I'm in here. The black cat has jumped to the back of the chair and is looking at the door and hissing with its back arched and fur fluffed out. There is more banging at the door. I go over to the chair and stroke the cat gently to calm it down.

I tell the cat not to worry, there's no way I'm letting those crazy people in… they're probably Templars. Of all the neighbors to have, did my new place have to have Templars as neighbors? I call out and ask if they’re Templars. There is a pause in the knocking. Two people answer at the same time. One says yes, the other says no, and then calls the first one an idiot. The first one replies that there's no way I could not know they're Templars. I tell them to go away, I can't let them in. One of them asks why. I answer that it seems most every time I meet Templars in my dream I end up having to kill them… and I don't want blood on my new carpet, certainly not Templar blood… so make it easier on everyone and go away. In the relative silence since the Templars stopped pounding on the door I notice the black cat has relaxed and is now purring as I stroke it. There is silence from outside the door for a bit and I wonder if the Templars might have actually taken my suggestion to just leave me alone. My hopes for that are dashed when there is another knock at the door. I am still stroking the black cat when I wake up.

(This is a portion of a vivid dream that I had. It was some sort of play or movie that I was viewing at the time. This excerpt was spoken over a series of random images, sometimes correlating to what was being said. I may have a a bit of this copied down wrong, but I still remember this almost perfectly.)

Excerpt from Scalpman

As I examined the scalp of an older man
I felt his dying breath pass my hand.
The tangibleness of his essence confounded my inner thoughts as I now strolled through the snssispsing fields. It looked as if it would be a good yield this spring. My head had told me that if I was to accept this offering, I was to find a suitable orifice in which to store the now stale and rusty lock box. This box existed only between scalpman and myself, so I was sure that it was of some moderate value. One might intend on unlocking such treasures, but I was of a keener mindset as I discovered, in that singular moment, that I was alive.

Gripping the soul of a man who was either deceased or erased from my reality, I hurried along to the well, somewhere near the center of the fields. I threw one last glance behind my shoulder, towards the ruins that I had become quite familiar with. A mother that I never believed I knew. That place knew me. We shared a connection of an increasingly uncertain nature. This was her will. I was merely a vessel. I had never felt more free in my life. As my body was no longer mine, my mind was more willing to comply to my demands. I had control as I reached the well, dripping with a sweet nectar that my pores had so thoughtfully provided. I was doing something very important, she said, as I was flung into the well, package in hand. My last thoughts were of doubt and regret, which were swiftly and rightfully extinguished.

Realize I'm in a dream. I don't remember anything about the dream apart from realizing i was in it. Decide that I would like some sex. See someone in the distance, she's got blonde hair but I can't work out who it is. I approach her. It's a teacher I used to know, she's pregnant for some reason. Decide to touch her boob and then we make out. Wake up, but not fully. I feel like I've woken up but I'm actually still in a dream. I actually fooled myself into thinking I've awoken, however I'm still completely asleep.

LUCID

*I became lucid while laying down in bed. I got up thinking since I started from my could I be actually astral projecting. I walked to my door and tried to walk through but I couldn't. I thought I might be. I finally outside of my house and realized no this is a dream because everything looks different. I jumped off a high ledge thinking this is isn't going to hurt me because it's just a dream.

Then the thought struck me, my goal is to use a harry potter wand. I found a stick wand like object. I yelled some random phrase haha while expecting something awesome to happen. Nothing just a blue ball of light, very lame. I tried again and the same thing a blue ball of light.

Then I looked around thinking of where I can fly but it was so much rain was pouring down it made me lose internet. I then looked around for a broom to help me fly harry potter style. I spotted one but the excited caused me to wake up.


*I became lucid in my apartment. I walked out on the balcony. It occured to me that I wanna see padmashambhava. I attempted to manifest a picture of padmashambhava, what I got was a beatiful red goddess with usual shaped head. I thought I never seen anything like this in my life. Then a picture of a beatiful stupa appeared being held up my elephants. Also a standing Buddha with snakes behind him, the vision was amazing nothing like I have seen in real life. Then finally Guru Rinpoche appeared behind clouds. I felt he was speeding from somewhere and that he was actually in front of me. I put the picture down and tried again, only his trident appeared this time.

Dream 1: Me, my dad and my uncle are with some archaeologist guy. We went to some places I can't remember, until we sailed off to some Mayan ruins on the coast of California. I found a really small tiger cub, and rescued him from the water, and stepped back on the barge. He was scratching me, but I trained him to lay off by shouting "No! Bad boy!" as if he were a dog. I domesticated him and called him frosty. (BTW we don't have frosty flakes in Australia, no clue how I got it.) I lived on the barge with him for a while, and tried teaching him to swim. He sunk like a stone. Freaking out about sharks, I fished him out, and started crying

We lived on the barge for a while, and we tried stepping off of the floating barge and into the water, but frosty fell straight into the gap between the two craft, and into the water. I tried fishing him out, but instead found my neighbours dog, minus one leg. The dog tolled me to watch out, because there was a shark down there. I didn't care, and kept searching for frosty. I thought I felt his mouth, because I could feel teeth, so I grabbed them and pulled upwards. It turned out to be a giant shark, but suddenly we were in a small room I used to live in, and the shark just plopped onto my bed. Now I couldn't find frosty, and this has kind of given me a sad start to the day . Things merge into dream 2, the far better one, so Dream one can cut off here.

Dream 2: I started going to my old school for whatever reason. I had to walk down a dirt track to the main school area, which was about a 1Km walk. As I was walking, some kid younger than me threw a pebble at my head. Ignoring him, because that's what I'd tend to do in real life, he came up and started grabbing my hair.

That pissed me off a fair bit, so I grabbed him in an arm lock, and I did a shoulder throw, and then body slammed him. I was all hulk mode, so I also dislocated a few of his fingers until he promised to piss off. I got off of him, and he suddenly grabbed a shiny plastic dinner plate and swung it at my head. We started fighting for a while, and he mixed up the words "deflection", "reflection" and "refraction".

"Aw' hell naw."

I went all grammar Nazi mode, and stopped in the middle of the fight to give him an English lesson. Eventually he got bored, and left. I finished walking down the dirt track, and I found a part that looked remarkably like my current school. I also noticed some people who were from my current school, one kid in my yeargroup and one Japanese exchange student. I said hi to the kid, and おはようございます to the exchange student, but as soon as I greeted them they changed form into people I didn't know .

Aaaaaanyway. I walked deeper into the school, and it seemed more like a vertical city in a skyscraper. Everyone looked really hostile, and I was feeling a bit out of place. I was getting thirsty (My throat is dry and hurts IRL) so I stepped into a little cafe. Seeing a large amount of thick rimmed glasses, I deducted it was either the nerd or hipster water hole. Everyone was sitting down and reading quietly, so I figured it was a nerd area. I went to buy some water from the counter, and I took ages to get served. I asked for bottled, and got it in a glass, which annoyed me.

I didn't pay for it (Huge dreamsign of mine, not paying for things ) and sat down at a bench. It turned out to be someone I actually remember from that school! Success! He gave me some rice with meatballs, and we chatted about the school. I realised I was dreaming, because the school was so different, I hadn't payed for my drink and I had had that dawning sensation of dreaming I've been getting in the last few LD's. I looked at my hands, which deceptively seemed quite realistic, but trusting my brain, they soon morphed into E.T. hands. I started to drop out of the dream, and everything faded to white, and I opened my eyed to my room.

Nurp. We have unfinished business, dream.

Despite opening my eyes like a dumbass, I rolled over, and focused on the scene I was in. It materialised, and I spun around slowly to get the details, accidentally closing my "dream eyes" a few times, which made me freak out. Remembering the basic TOTM I, which I still haven't done, I ran up to the nearest kid and shouted in his face, "Ablibablalalaasdfjhl kagvj".

Nada. The little poo completely ignored me.

Trying again with another kid, I did the same thing. Still no response. He was too engrossed with Star Wars: The Phantom Menace The Novel, or something along those lines, I seemed to remember Darth Maul on the cover. Frustrated, I stormed outside and checked out the nearest shop, which was now a surf/ski shop. Realising I don't really surf, and I'm not skiing until September, (Which in Australia = Spring. I know, I didn't book it.) I left.

Delving deeper into the school, it merged into a reaaaaaaally posh department store, with waiters carrying gilt trays of fancy food every where. I walked around, getting lost and interrupting people's meals, until I realised that, hey, I'm still dreaming, I may as well try to find some of my old friends.

Never mind, dream's fading.

Nuuuuuuuurp. DEILD again. Hop into dream. I wasn't thinking too straight, so I decided to use dream control to rather than summon my friends, locate their heat signatures . Anyway, They were upstairs and far away, so after a quick stabilisation, I flew up into the ceiling and phased through it into an expensive baby clothing store. Still not finding my friends, I quickly decided to have fun by shattering glass windows. I noticed that the windows did not shatter n shards, but into square voxel-ish things. Meh.

Continuing to search for my friends I popped into a large garbage room and found two guys who were not my friends .

And, wake up once more. DEILD once more. Stabilise once more.

Anyway the guys were really fat, sort of like Fiddle Dee and Fiddle Dum, but more colourful. One had dream control, the other did not, so it must have been a fairly high level LD if one of them had control over the dream. Apparently the room was going to contract and kill us all . I found no way out that didn't involve falling and very likely dying, and I knew falling would wake me up, so I waited until a hatch in the ceiling popped down with a very short rope leading about 2 metres below the hatch in a 30 metre tall room :I. Me and the functioning twin grabbed the non dream control one, and we flew up sluggishly. We mispositioned ourselves and hit the rim of the hatch. Twice. Third time lucky, we got everyone grabbing the rope, and we immediately got pulled up through a long pipe. It was sort of like fruit ninja, but each of us had a different fruit to slice. I had a grapefruit of some kind. Anyway, I start to lose lucidity and wake up after this.

Third person.
I start out in a lab working on an alien with 2 other people. I am a girl, but that isn't too weird when in 3rd person mode. I am dissecting it and trying to keep away from different parts of the alien that look like they might still eat me. The alien explodes up and eats the other two people. I hide in a cabinet and switch to first person. Scared to death, I see it leave the room and run out the other door. One of the Doctors tries to convince me to stay, but I rush around him. He is eaten seconds later. The alien isn't following me purposefully, but it is killing everything it sees and accidentally following. I finally make it outside and there is a huge spaceship shooting the side of the building, allowing the alien to jump out of and start eating people outside. It sees me and runs at me. I see a security fence and take off for it. I am now me for some reason and think about how I have jumped over them in the past and I slip sideways and push off from it so that I can make the jump. The alien stops the chase and goes back to the ship. Everyone else on the street is dead, so I get out of the yard and see the cops coming. They ask what happened and don't believe me at all. I tell them that I am a doctor working on understanding extra terrestrial life and they laugh at me. I tell them to follow me into the building. I am now a woman again. I walk in a different door than before and I notice something strange as I walk in. Everyone is alive and calm, but the place is also clean and white, like a lab, but also like an asylum. The people behind the counter know nothing of what I am talking about, but they did say they heard an explosion. They said that I wasn't a doctor there, but that I was a patient. :/ I was really frustrated and hoping that I wasn't insane.
