Angie is a friend of mine whom I have not seen in person since we were eightteen, and we really were close friend when we were sixteen. She lives in Europe, I live in the US. We are Facebook friends.

In my dream I had been invited to Angie's birthday party, and was eager to go. However, I kept getting confused: when is the party? Is it today or tomorrow? Check on phone. Tomorrow. When is it? Am I in the car now because I am driving there? If so, I don't have a present. No, the party is on Friday, and today is Thursday (in my dream).

Will I even need to drive there? Couldn't I just walk? But it will be late at night, and the party is barely walking distence. Could my mother drive me there? As long as she stays in the car: it would be awkward if she came in, unlike for that other party of another friend where that was ok.

I am not entirely sure whether I was an adult or a teen in this dream. I think it may have switched from adult to teen in mid-dream.

I was not aware not even a bit, even though with all that confusion I should have questioned that something was wrong. I kept not remembering from one moment to the next when that party will be. When I thought of walking at night, I briefly visualized that, too, but it did not raise any weirdness flags. The dream was quite vivid however. A prime example that vividness and awareness are so separate.

In this dream some parent I did not know was bragging about their children that they napped better, stood taller, progressed better than other people's children, and that it was due to special nutrition.

This dream was rather lengthy and vivid, however, due to the way I was woken up, I could not work more on retaining the memory.

This dream was supposedly about work, but I did not recognize the other people. Throughout the dream I was trying to establish whether a record in the database was a real production record or a fake test record. I went from one set of people to another person. Finally I found a guy who said that it was fake test, and he was sure of it despite only barely looking at it. I said "How do you know?" He: "Because this record is about 'killer potatoes' and there is no such thing." I looked at the data, and yes it was about killer potatoes. I felt so bad for not having noticed that before.

I tried to then establish who had entered this fake record into the production system, but I could not narrow it down to an individual only to a department.

Recall from today's naps, bunch of confusing false awakenings once again and fake sleep paralysis.
The first nap was weird one though, i am not sure what i was trying to do there.

Nap #1(fragments):

Can't recall much other than that i was WILDing and the room was different.
Then i woke up in my room and i exactly knew that i was dreaming, i got up from the bed and spontaneously started trying many kinds of dream control and failing... i probably didn't had full control over myself either. Shortly dream faded out and i woke up.

Nap #2:
Dream 1(fragments):

There was some kind of theatre and i was behind the scenes, where people were making a movie. Then later i was using subway to get somewhere, then i was in some other place and there was movie like cutscene. Finally i was back at home and i was doing WILD, family was watching movies and distracting me but i continue.
I wake up back at my room, and i can't move, i try to break out of it, but chandelier appears and everything gets filled with lamps. Dream fades out and i wake up again, i take off headphones and i still can hear binaural beats, but before i can do anything else dream fades out again and i wake up distracted by family watching movies, can't recall much after that other than some dream skips.

Dream 2:

I was back at home again, and again trying to WILD.
I wake up again in my room, can't move, and chandelier again is here, i attempt to break out of paralysis and this time i barely manage to get able to move to take off headphones, binaural beats still heard. Then suddenly dad appeared out of nowhere, grabbed me and thrown me out through the balcony door, while shouting 'Thanks!'. Outside i am able to move normally again, i feel wings and fly, i respond to him "No, thank /you/" since for once family member helped me in lucid dream, usually they were more distracting me.
Dream, however is not very stable, so i rub hands and quickly stabilize it. Then i look around and outside... is weird. It looks like outside area near the house is surrounded by same walls that are in my room somehow? I fly higher into the skies and do decide to attempt to do transformation into a dragon again. I give it a few tries, using various commands and visualization, and during one of attempts, i start feeling bigger... but my visible body is the same size, not changed at all... that's weird, also my voice gets more booming. I fly around some more and i somehow get into some kind of tube, walls of which are made of screens with blue ads on them...
At the bottom of the tube there's room with wooden floor, i fly there, by the time i reach it the feeling of bigness vanishes, i also notice that walls are white and cyan. I am now inside some building and there's janitress, as i fly closer she throws a bucket at me, i feel the hit but i take no damage of any kind. Then she disappears while i look confused. I look around some more and see a group of schoolmates from my past. I fly closer to them, but before i can do anything dream fades out and i wake up.

Alright...

This night has been the most incredible night ever in my entire life! I have been focusing more on lucid dreaming the last 2 weeks, because I had more time for myself, aside of the studying for my upcoming exams...
As I had lost my focus on the whole dreaming thing, I had to start all over again. I couldn't remember any of my dreams, though I knew that they always had been extensively long. It was frustrating and starting all over again was more difficult than when I first discovered lucid dreaming (around November last year).

So the first week of my 'vacation' I had been studying quite alright and had been reading up more about some techniques and how to improve my dream recall. I already knew this, but I had to start writing again in my dream journal. I often find this ' a pain in the ass' but it had to be done so I was quite motivated to write in it. But sadly I couldn't remember even a single dream...Always these small fragments that didn't make any sense when I couldn't remember the rest of them. I was really frustrated and my focus began to decrease (again...)

So now the start of the second week, my dream recall increased a bit and I could always write a page or 2 about what I had dreamed the night before. But still there were (still are actually) some fragments, beginnings or endings that were so 'foggy' in my head that I could never write a whole, single dream down. This didn't motivate me and it was like I was making progress, but I wasn't happy about it, thinking back at a period where my recall was always so vivid and clear...Still, I didn't want to give up and I just desperately wanted to have a lucid dream again. To feel that wonderful feeling of becoming aware inside your own head.

Alright, so yesterday evening I was quite determined, but not like 'super' focused on it. I had been chatting on fb till 12 o'clock and I decided to go to bed. I had my laptop play this isochronic music (Lucid Dream Induction - "The I-Dreamer" - 90-Min Sleep Cycle (Isochronic Tones) - YouTube), to get in the mood and I was hoping to get in sleep paralysis and then hopefully in a dream, becoming lucid. But frankly I was still not that tired, so I decided to do some stuff on my tablet until I got tired. When that moment came, I layed down, hoping that the sounds would lead me into SP. Again nothing, and I was quite annoyed by the sounds so I desperately gave up, turned the music off and went to sleep. (As always, I had set my alarm to go off at about 6 in the morning for WBTB)

At 6 o'clock I woke up from the alarm and went to the bathroom as usual. I had just woken up from a dream, but I couldn't even remember...Disappointed i went back to bed. I thought about playing the isochronic sounds again and just sitting up straight in my bed, thinking about this scenario were I became lucid. I did this for about 5 min or so and went back to sleep

This is where I just can't believe what happened:

After this moment I had had about 7-8 lucid dreams, all after each other.

The first 2 only lasted about 10 seconds each...(but still :p ) The first one was actually really scary...I was sitting in this classroom with a bunch of other students. I leaned backwards in my chair and I suddenly saw my ex sitting at a single desk behind me. She was just lying with her head on the desk and with her arms covering her face, like she was crying (which she wasn't). I thought like, this is just too weird, this can't be happening. Suddenly this feeling rushed through my body and I became lucid! I instinctively looked at my hands, but I didn't have time to look properly. The classroom went very dark and all of the students suddenly were turned into this demonic, dark creatures...I was really frightened and I was being pulled at this demonic face, everything went black and I woke up. The second one was really similar and I had this anxious feeling. Anybody else who has this frightened feeling?

All of the others were amazing dreams! In total I was like 1 hour lucid! It's just incredible...This whole 2 weeks, not even remembering a single dream or only fragments of it and now like 8 lucid dreams, which I all remember in full detail! These 5 other lucids I got because of DEILD'ing. Which I had only done once in the past. All of them were falls awekenings in which I did the nose plug reality check to become lucid. (which I had actually never done before, ever)

I even met my Dream guide! It's some kind of small robot who can come from anywhere. from the ground, the walls, anywhere. I met him at an amusement park. I was walking and wondering what to do, so I thought, let's find my DG! I walked onto this little man, who was selling something. I asked if he knew were my DG was. He ignored my question and asked my what kind of sauce I would like on my fries :p He was kind of weird and was acting and speaking almost robotic or something. I just walked away, because he wasn't going to say anything useful. This next dream when I woke up (FA), my room was dark. I never felt comfortable, and I always had the feeling something dark was going to 'take' me. So I closed my eyes and I imagined myself standing on top of this snowy mountain. But it didn't work...I looked at my bed and there was some kind of really old phone on my pillow.

It looked like this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nj5QjNOpgL...-telephone.jpg

It was glowing and suddenly this man and woman were sitting on a chair next to my bed. I asked them what the thing was. They sad that it was something to reach my DG. So I picked up the phone and "poof"! This little robot came out of the wall.

Like him: http://pcmedia.ign.com/pc/image/arti...3030524283.jpg

He looked like the robotic man who I met at the amusement park! So from the beginning it was him he was smaller than the first time I met him. But I think he can transform himself in all kind of 'modes'.

So yeah, this was only a fraction of what I dreamed! I also have controlled the elements like the avatar. But I wasn't very good at it. I airbended, waterbended snow and water. It always worked, but not as i wanted to...I even woke up from a false awakening and saw my wall, full of these words and paintings, from some one before me. Who also had this lucid dreams and didn't want to forget. So he had painted it on the wall, hoping that when he woke up, it would still be there. I can't believe that these LD's actually lasted so long...I only sometimes had to look at my hands and stabilize the dream. (I even did this when I was sitting on the ground, talking with these two guys. I was shouting "stabilize!" and "clarity" and they were looking at me like I was some kind of lunatic ). The other moments I was doing all this amazing stuff 10min. in a row!


I'm still astonished of what I have accomplished...I mean, it came out of nowhere...And it was like I learned to DEILD in one night. I even could have had another FA at the end, but I thought ' I really have to stop this...maybe I won't even remember all of my earlier lucids if I keep having them'. I mean could you imagine? That I even willingly stopped myself from having another lucid, because I had had so many already :p I also just loved the feeling of doing the nose plug and feel the air flow through my nose, and thinking 'Oh yeah LD, here I come!'

I really hope I can keep up with this...but I somewhere have he feeling that this was only a once in a lifetime experience...Any thoughts?
Now I'm going to write all of them down, seperately, so that I won't forget this night. It was so awesome! (I know the title of this thread is a little bit over the top, but I'm just so shocked of what I have done )

Thanks for reading this!

Yesterday:

I was being held by a woman along with a few other people, before I get taken into a room. There’s a bright light shining on glass tiles inside, and then I’m made to leave after the women tells me something. I later tell the others what I saw.

“[...] before she turned me around and pushed me out.”

I was trying not to smile as I explained for some reason.

Today:

I was running away from a big monster. I was in World of Warcraft and ran up onto a ship(?) then jumped across to another area of it. The monster followed, so I took a chance and jumped off into the distance. I almost landed on a solid area but I just missed it. I fell down, and down—and then I woke.

Note: I think the ship was golden like the one in Homestuck, and the monster was like a demon in Dragon Age.

First it started out me and a few friends were transported to this grocery store and we had to pack up some food and no one was working there so we could get whatever we wanted and we only had a limited amount of time until these alien monster things would attack us they weren't that big maybe 6 foot 6 and then we had to run outside before they got here and get on these flying machines and I got one where you have to drive it for a while and down the road a little bit there is this huge alien ship and my thing can't fly yet so just before I hit the ship I lift off and I start flying slash jumping and then I jump again when I touch the ground and jump over this huge modern trex robot thing and jump some more over some building into a big open field, and in the middle there is this big violent spinning machine that doesn't move and then you have to dodge these lighting things on the ground stretched out like plant roots and you have to dodge the shockwaves for 5 minutes or you loose the game and die and have to restart OK now I beat this stage/round and now I'm transported to round three where were in a small theatre room with a big TV screen and in this stage you have to dodge these heat ray lines that pop up every minute or so and you have to destroy these blocks by dodging the lasers and then a lot more people showed up and I made it all the way through the round and didn't loose a life, so I went outside to these tables where they hand out awards and I got 1st place but I had a waiting time and i guess it was about 10am in my dream and I had to wait till 3pm and then I was talking to some friends and then I hear something and it was my alarm, it was a fun dream

Saturday 4/13/13

I was so tired yesterday, went to bed at 8:30pm - 7:50 am

Had a ton of long, detailed dreams. Wrote down only keywords and by now, don't remember much.

1. Something about Julie Watson. No clue who it is.

2. I'm in Saudi Arabia. (watched movie Kingdom, about FBI investigating bombing in SA).
At home, I'm showing my dad an atlas with pictures of Saudi Arabian beach. Few feet from sand, there are pits dug out in the dirt with bright blue ocean water and sand. Like a mini ocean. It's for the wives/women. They can't be on beach together with man.

As we looking at the atlas, we are suddenly standing on top of the steep cliff, overlooking the beach with little private oceans, same as the picture in the atlas.

3. I'm touring some tourist attractions in national forest in Saudi Arabia. At some tree, there is a sign in russian. Picture next to it is an orthodox christian. So that explains the sign in russian.

I'm at work, surrounded by all of my colleagues, and the boss' daughter. We're all planning a sleepover there, and as we're joking around, my hands catch my eye. Six or seven incredibly intricate and detailed snowflakes are etched into my palms. I draw my colleague's attention to this, and we all look in amazement. Suddenly, I decided to go to the bathroom, and find myself walking along a stylish corridor, where abstract art has been hung on the dark grey walls. I turn right and realise I've just entered my living room. Astonished, I spin around, taking in my environment. Knowing this is a dream, but still feeling too much under the dream haze, I perform reality checks I remember reading of in an attempt to clear my mind further. I plug my nose, and am unable to breathe. This prompts me to try another, to see if it works. I picked up a book from a bookcase I have in the living room, and read the title. I look away, look at it again, and the letters are still clear, legible, and remain unchanged. Perplexed, I attempt to push the fingers of my right hand into my left palm, and again, the check fails. However, I am still convinced that I am dreaming (For some reason, the snowflakes did not seem to bother me lol). Determined to prove this to myself and clear the dreams influence from my mind, I head to my bedroom door. Standing in front of it, I imagine a sunset. I figured that if this was a dream, I should open the door and see a sunset. Taking a deep breath, I open the door. My room is as it always was, nothing changed, apart from one of my walls having been turned into one big window. After standing there for about two or three seconds, the sky suddenly starts to change colour, and I witness the sun rise, through my bedroom window. I smile; though it wasn't exactly what I'd imagined, it was close enough. Just as the sun finishes rising, the dream scape darkens, and pulls away from me, leaving me standing in the middle of blackness, before waking up.

Definite Progress! Finally!

I feel like i was aware of the fact that i was dreaming most of last night, but was too damn tired to force a more active lucidity (stayed up ~4 hours later than my body wanted to).

woke up knowing i had been dreaming of zombies (played the first bit of the walking dead game before bed), but not much else. watching a youtube video about owls flying sparked the following recollection.

I had this little motorized winged gadget that is meant to help one fly. there was a spot in the woods that had awesome updrafts - enough to get me flying unassisted (more of a gliding thing - couldn't go long distances. going up takes a LOT of effort, and the forward movement is mostly gliding/making use of updrafts). i had to go somewhere far away, so i figured stealing one of the flyers (the winged gadget) would help get me there. When I used it in the updraft place however, it shot me up too heigh too fast. it was slightly frightening, but mostly inconvenient as i couldn't see where to go. i had a male friend with me at some point. vaguely fairly like (we were)... were on someones roof - the someone else's patio - used their comp/radio/etc for music.
-
a secret base for...? abnormal people - deep underground. there is a valve like tube to get there. usually solid, but if you know how to get there, you can make it open and admit you. there might have been a fire there at some point - well contained. i thing i stole/borrowed the flying device from them. the mission was probably also from them. it was in a place way to the north - on a coast.

Night before last:
I dreamed my ex boyfriend and I piloted steam-powered mechs across a post apocalyptic desert landscape, think Fallout New Vegas style. At one point, we stopped at a ruined rest stop.

Last night:
1. I was in a crowd in a movie theater like setting. It was very crowded and I was trying to find a seat without disrupting peoples' view of the show. It wasn't dark, though - the seats were all outdoors.

The theater became stadium-like. I was moving through a large crowd. The dream became blurry, and then I was hovering over the crowd and the building, which was amphitheater like with a strange roof-like structure that had muticolored terra-cotta tiles.

I suddenly realized that I was flying, which caused me to realize that I was dreaming. All of the colors intensified as I mentally ramped up the vividness of the dream. There were sparkling, vividly hued, multicolored chunks of glass and shiny black, hard pieces of coal suspended in the air around me. I was carrying a stack of tax forms and medical paperwork. As soon as I realized I was dreaming, I tossed them into the crowd below. I watched the hundreds of papers flutter to the earth like falling leaves, glad to have let them go.

I reached up and grasped a shiny black chunk of coal. It was smooth and hard, and despite being black, it shimmered. I brought both hands together and imagined immense pressure and heat. I imagined that the entire universe was exerting pressure on it. The coal between my hands began to feel hot.

I opened my hands. The coal had fused somewhat into a yellow piece of glass, but it wasn't a diamond yet. I wasn't bothered by this - it was a process, after all. I closed my hands, pressed them together around the coal/glass, and imagined the immense pressure and heat again. I imagined that all of existence was compressing around this single object. The dream rippled around me. I heard a sound like a shock-wave, or sub-bass.

I opened my hands and looked again. There was an almond-shaped yellow diamond in my hands, roughly the size of an egg. The surface was polished and smooth, and I could see into the translucent diamond and see all of the facets and the inner structure of the diamond catching the light. I gently released it and it rose into the air, joining the suspended pieces of coal and shards of glass, sparkling brilliantly in the sunlight.

I woke up. For whatever reason, I just wasn't excited about what I'd done! I just rolled over and went back to sleep... d'oh.

I dreamed that I was petting a tiger. It had been brought over to my apartment by a different ex-boyfriend. Its stripes were made of paint, and they got all over me.

I was in some kind of video game and there was huge forest full of items from Deathtrap Dungeon, i had to find ways to collect them all and some of them were pretty hard to get, requiring ridiculous jumping on branches, and along the way i had to fight some enemies too.

Unfortunately, I did not recall anything last night. The only thing that happened was me waking up in the middle of the night -

Reality checks show that I was actually awake and not dreaming.

I shall continue my efforts. I'd sooner witness all things fall into utter oblivion than give up this early.

When I succeed, the land of dreams will finally allow me to break the monotony of my life with flashes of creation and fantasy.

Only one dream from last night but it's certainly one of the craziest I've ever had!

Okay so I had the animated scooby doo by my side, the 3D animated one and I had to hide him from the cartoon one that was coming through a portal in a forest not too far away. We were both in this fairly open square tent and we both bolted for the open trying to get away. We both rushed through an open and very busy morning market. With blue sky above us and castle not too far off we clearly weren't in 2013. Nevertheless I glanced backwards to see if the cartoon one was behind us to see the scene switch as quick as a lightning strike. Suddenly I was in the middle of a cross-fire, not of real bullets though; nerf pellets. I instinctively ducked and looked around, as I did so the scene flicked back and I was racing through the market once more. Not giving a care to what had just happened we both raced into one market stall at the top of a grassy hill. Now I think back to it, it all felt so real and nice to have the sun on my back, blue sky and very colourful green grass. I looked around and once more the scene changed like a light coming on. This time people looked like they were in some kind of restaurant, however they were testing their nerf guns, making sure they loaded and fired properly, like they were preparing for an assault.

Looking back around I was no longer at the market, I was in a comfortable room and it was nighttime. I then heard a knocking on the window, it was my very small college friend Kathleen. She'd done something very bad and got kicked out of her house and needed somewhere to stay. Me being the kind person I am I lifted her through the window and into 'my room'. Not long after we were both watching tv on a large bean bag and all of a sudden she started feeling me up! O.o I look to my left and my girlfriend is sat right there! She didn't respond and I was shocked at what was happening. Then the dream ended.

i am in a house with M., S. and A. the house is located in a clearing in a coniferous forest. the scene is generally dark. the house has wood floors and a warm colour scheme.

then my friends and i are in my elementary school gymnasium. we are playing a game in which the goal is to guess what the other person is thinking of. the theme in this round is fetishes. i come up with an idea which turns into an entire dream scene:
this scene is in the style of a documentary and it is presented by a man whose appearance and mannerisms recall louis theroux. several muscular men wearing leather bdsm outfits sre gathered together in a field. on the edge of the field stand rows of huge metal bows (about twice the height of a person) which are anchored to the ground. "louis" interviews one of the men who tells him that this is a fetish. participants obtain satisfaction by being fired from the bow as if they were an arrow. louis chooses to undergo this process. an arrowhead attached to a short length of shaft is glued onto his forehead and he is placed into some kind of leather bondage contraption which keeps his legs together and his arms at his sides. the man pulls the bow back, releases it and louis flies straight through the air.
afterwards we are in a classroom with the lights off. some blue-white light filters through the window. we are discussing sexuality with a teacher figure who is male and in his mid-20s.

the scene returns to my elementary gymnasium but now there is a war going on. the tile floor has become bumpy and ragged, unevenly painted with blue, yellow and green stripes. i am talking to a tall, thin man in a suit who has unruly black hair about the war. i understand this man is jean-paul sartre. sartre complains that another writer's books are racist and colonialist and tosses them onto the ground.

next i am inside some kind of professional building with wooden doors and blue glass walls. a man is advertising his book on quantum physics. the cover photo of the book is a ripple in multicoloured liquid. i open the book. there is a grid on one page and each cell contains a line drawing of a person. on the opposite page the author derides all of these people, complaining that the men are "assholes" and the women are "sluts". on another page, there is a large circle labeled "A" to the left of a small circle labeled "B". the book describes how the larger circle represents the immediate effects of a quantum process while the smaller circle represents the other effects. the example he uses to elucidate this theory is that if you consumed lead atoms, you would experience mild symptoms immediately, while the rest of your family would become severely ill and mentally retarded but this would occur over a long course of time. (that's dream logic for you). when these two circles intersect, they supposedly create a ripple pattern.

finally I am wandering through the hallways of my elementary school. they actually look more like the hallways on the 3rd floor of the hospital but in the dream i believe it is school. the walls, floor and ceiling are flat white. the hallways are very narrow and take strange zig-zag courses, which is disorienting. someone tells me that there is a fire in the school. i am not concerned until i see brushed metal cylindrical objects careening through the hallways and spraying water, ostensibly to fight the fire. these 'robots' frighten me slightly.
