Woke up at 4AM to WBTB Moved to recliner SSILD - No Aids #131 - The Neighbor's House -DEILD 5:01AM I wake up from a NLD. Have a really hard remembering the dream. A part of me thinks that I woke up here in a lucid FA. I am not sure. I move a little and get comfortable. The I decide to just forget the dream and DEILD. I get the vibrations almost immediately. It comes slow at first and then gains intensity. I have to admit and I am really excited at this point and I know this stage can make or break the LD. Instead of trying to visualize a place or scene, I go for a OBE style LD and hurriedly get out of the recliner and rush outside. I felt a little sluggish at first but the transition was pretty smooth. I go into the yard and for some reason look in the sky. I think its real life habit coming out. The sky is dimly lit and cloudy. The clouds look like gray and black marble. I find it really pretty and admire it for a while. The only problem is that I seem to look moving my head wildly back and forth and not able to hold still. I look at the ground to stabilize. I realize I didn't think of a goal before hand. (I was so unprepared for this LD) I had to really rack my brain to think of a TOTM. I remember flower and start searching the grass. I pluck a piece of grass and start to will it to be a flower. Then I remember that one is already done. I think really hard. I remember the clock but I am outside and don't feel like looking for a clock. Erase major element! I realize that I had wondered over towards the neighbor's yard so I started looking around for something to erase. I wasn't about to mess with my own stuff! I see his red car. Not enough. I see the houses across the street. Too much. I look back at the neighbors house. Ha! Ill erase his house! Then, I notice the dream world getting darker except for the house. The color seems way to bright and vivid like bad Technicolor. A car passes behind me and for a brief moment everything is lit up and normal. I don't want to fall to darkness so I ask the dream for light. I look and and yell "Lights! I need lights here please." I notice how strange my voice sounds hollow and echoes. Nothing happens so I try again. I clap at the sky and yell "LIGHTS!" The sensation on my hand is strange. Still nothing so I give up.I focus on my neighbors house once again. I put a hand up over my line of sight so that it looks like I have my hand above it. The idea was to just wipe the house away like and eraser on a chalkboard. At that moment the world goes completely dark. I think I am waking up. I forget all of my void/DEILD tricks and give up on the dream. After a few seconds I am fooled by a FA I wake up and notice thats its late morning and the light from the windows is bright. I notice how my dream clock is usually close to waking time. I guess I was off this time. (Doh! I missed that one!) I see a pile of cat vomit on the floor and it looks like cornbread stuffing. I see Stella, my cat, is next to it. I am so pissed that I slap her head. She is not phased by it. I backhand her in the head really hard but she just looks at me. I find this really odd but don't think it through (missed another one ) I see some familiar DC in the kitchen cleaning. I start bitching about the cats and go help clean. I wake up.

This story is about my first LD after joining DV. The night i had this LD I had two other dreams that i knew i had but i couldn't recall exactly what they where because of the exictement from the LD, Now then to the story. Red Text = Non-Lucid Blue Text = Lucid It all started in a arena, From the looks i would say it was similar to a roman arena. I was one of the spectators of the gladiotor fights and it was kind of blurry. The next thing i know is that i am falling down to the arena and having to fight for my life, So i picked up a sword and started fighting the gladiators and within a instant i had beat them all. After that i went outside of the arena and started walk down the streets of rome. And then i saw something very odd, It was a pastry. Something trigered when i saw that pastry that caused me to do a RC then a flash of light hit my eyes and then. I had become Lucid it was amazing but i restrained my self from getting to exicted because i was on a mission. To find the dream army base, It was weird because insted of being in first person i was viewing it like a sidescroller game. So in my mind i kept saying dip in the forest repeating and then after about a minute I reached a hole in the hole ground and dropped down hoping to find the dream army base. But when i saw the top of the building i knew it was not it. The structure was made of minecraft blocks, And the sign in the front had the word (Dragonsreach) Kind of like one of the keeps in skyrim. And thats all, Have a nice day
This was a nonlucid. I was dreaming that I was watching a Lifetime movie about a gay guy on the football team that was getting bullied by the other football players. The one scene I remember involved a guy that looked like my friend Josh, and he was really antagonizing the gay player. But he was being SO mean and SO ruthless, that the other players began standing up for the little gay dude. They ended up all turning on "Josh." I think someone shot Josh because the movie ended with all the players standing around a body, who was spurting blood out of an artery wound in his neck with each heartbeat. Finally his eyes closed and the camera started to zoom out. Then Josh rolled over, as if to get into a more comfy position while dying, and I thought "This actor is baaaad. Die already goddamnit." Then, just when I expected the rolling credits, the guy gets up and starts walking around. At this point I deduce that it's the character's "spirit" getting up and getting ready to go to heaven/afterlife/whatever. I become quasi-lucid here, because I fly into the TV set. I decided I want to play an angel that escorts him to heaven. At this point is really IS Josh, and I fly down to him. He's on a beautiful bright beach, looks like Florida. I go up to him and say, "Welcome to heaven, Josh." He does a "teeheeeeeee" and turns into a little kid and runs off. I fly after him, then ahead of him and stop. Now it's my son, and we take eachother's hand and walk along the beach. The sand is covered with precious gems, it's really pretty. I bend over and pick up a really pretty white crystal, which has a rainbow like opalescence running through it. I hand it to Chris and tell him "This is a mooooonstone." I said it with an English accent for some reason lol. Then I woke up. I had a short FA later too, when Danny got up to get ready for work. As soon as he finished brushing his teeth, he opened the bathroom door and light spilled into the room. I covered my face with the blanket. Then I woke up, it was dark, Danny finished brushing his teeth, opened the door, light filled the room, I covered my face. I was really awake this time note: I say "quasi lucid" because I never really said "Whoopie!! I'm dreaming!!!" I just had control and knew it, but just kinda went with the already established setting and story.
I'm in a hotelroom, with christian and his girl, we order some soup, i sit on the flore, and i spill a bit of the soup over the table... I should join some people, they have some kind of a project, a kind of organisation, it is a bit difficult to get there, but i do it anywai... it is a big meeting house, with lots of rooms and so on... i join the new-meeting-room or so, where people get an introduction, then they ask the question, it we play with butterflies, and i look at my knee, there is a scare fresh scar on my knee, i say, that the butteflies plays sometimes with that, and then i look down on me leg, and there is a even bigger wound/scar, i sturt tu open it again, and a lot of peaces come out, with meetlike something.... a guy is there, which starts also opening my wound, it gets pritty messiy, it everything has a bit of a corn-structure... then, i think a women, said, that we should stop opening the wound...
Tonight, I tryed again using the MILD technique and repeat the mantras: "I make reality test" and "I remember the dream." I fall asleep. I wake up in the very early (maybe 5:30, I didn't see what time it was) with the feeling that I had to remember the dream but I can't so I get back to sleep repeating the mantra "I remember the dream." So after half an hour I wake up, and after time immemorial, I remember the dream! During the night, I'm going back to school, passing in front of his house, meeting N., my old catechist, and her two children who return to school too. Since we live near, they decide to take me for that short stretch of road to my house. So start to walk and in front of the door of my house S., the youngest son of N., say that behind the hedge in front of the building there is my ball. So I'm going to climb over and take it. He follows me. Front of the ball I find one of my old green sweatshirt. I take it and the ball. While I prepare to go back I look up at the palace, and I see a lady from North Africa with a kind of fular on her head. Her son comes out of the front door of the building and looks at me... Here the dream stop and I wake up. I take pen and paper and I write all that I remember. Stay awake and half an hour after the alarm rings and I get ready to go to school.
False Awakening in my bedroom - I noticed this deep blue wall paper with a small print. It was beautiful, but not really in my bedroom so I did reality checks and realized I was still dreaming. I immediately fly through the windows and it was daylight outside. I looked over to the left I saw the Hollywood Bowl, but I didn't really want to explore that. Tried to conjure Jules. Walked into a bar and characters said he was at a place called Barstool (I forget the address). On my way over there I hop in a new corvette with Jimmy Fallon. I asked him if anyone has ever told him that he looks like Damone in Fast Times. We're driving around but never find Jules. Woke up. False awakening, reality check and fly out the windows. I appear to be flying over my grandfather's house and there were some runners coming across the swinging bridge. One was my subconscious but he wasn't cooperative and wouldn't answer my questions. Wonder why? Next time I'm going to try for a massage.
Dream Lucid Semi-Lucid This should technically be the 13th, since I had my sleep in two parts this day. I had a nap at around 5 o'clock and woke up at 8, then went back to bed at 2. However, both dreams are kind of related, so I just decided to lump them both together for the 14th. Also it's kind of valentines day related so there's that. Quick warning, this might get a bit sappy around the end. >.> If you're not into that sorta shit just skip the second part. Anyways, this involves a girl I'm into, I'll call her E. Also, I experienced SP for the first time. I decided to concentrate on the faint noise of my computer in the background is a lied perfectly still. Eventually after coming in and out of consciousness a few times, I tried to move my hand to adjust my position. Wouldn't you know it, I couldn't move my arm. I tried to summon the strength to move it but no matter how hard I did it didn't even budge. It was like when you sit cross legged for too long and can't physically move your legs after a bit. Except in this case, it was literally impossible for me. So I guess I'm getting closer to wild? Maybe? February 14th 2013 I'm at school walking through the hallway when I bump into this hot girl I like, E. "Heyyyy " she looks at me with a flirtatious look and shows a friendly smile. Um, did the girl I like just do that to me? This is it, this is the greatest day of my life. I shoot her back they same flirtatious smile. "Hey." I reply attempting to sound as smooth as possible. As she walks away she faces me and sings a little melody from some song. "From dusk till dawn. E-ver-ee night we party, all, night, long." The melody sounds like it could be from a nursery rhyme, but the lyrics sound otherwise. (She is a bit of a party girl so it doesn't seem out of character to me. On a related note this is a really weird thing for someone to do.) As I begin to revel in the fact that I can probably ask her out now whilst continuing my journey. I head into the stairwell and see a bunch of kids sitting around talking about stuff. It seems that they are a part of some sort of club. I begin to listen in when I hear the word dream brought up. I guess there talking about there dreams and stuff. I think that I could maybe try to join there conversation and interject some of my own experience, with lucid dreaming in particular. However, as I don't want to intrude or look like some kind of weirdo, I decide to move on. I end up bumping into another girl that says hi to me. I don't know who she is, and she looks like she's a grade below me. Not to be judgmental or anything but she didn't seem to good looking. For some reason I come to the conclusion that she's hitting on me. I give her a stoic, non-flirty-as-possible "hi" back. _______ I wake up in my bedroom to find two pretty girls I know are in my room with me. (I don't see this as a false awakening but as a 'time skip' so to speak, as in, all the things that happened in the previous dream I believe to be real memories). I get up to greet them, I guess they've been here waiting for me to get up. When I arise I notice that I'm wearing a baseball cap. "Hmm, why am I wearing my hat?" I say drowsily. I take it off and throw it aside. The two of them are sitting cross legged talking about stuff. I don't think they've realized I've woken up. "Um, hello." Funny seeing you here. "Oh, hey C.J. " One of them says to me. They continue on with there conversation. Well isn't this is just great, two fabulous looking young women have come to see me, and the time they chose to hang out was as soon as I woke up. I must look like a total mess. I decide to go to the bathroom to freshen up a bit when E grabs my hand. "By the way, we had all of your 'special package' that was sitting on the table. " She's referring to the water bottle with with a bit of rum in it that has been sitting on my desk for the past week. (It actually has). "Don't worry about it, there's plenty more where that came from." I tell her. I'm thinking about the last bottles of vodka that are still downstairs in the cooler. I've saved them there because I seriously hate vodka. To me it tastes like water with hand sanitizer. Though in the end, alcohol is alcohol, so I've saved them for a rainy and desperate day. Today is that day. Since I'll be drinking with girls, an event which is good unto itself, I'll be able to man up and hammer down the taste of death. I head into the bathroom and wash my hands, mulling over all this information in my head. I head downstairs, (where I knew they were even though I never saw them go) to go hang out with them. I see my mom laying down on the couch and get kind of embarrassed at the fact that they probably saw her. (She only wears a thin pajama layer all day). I ask her where they went and she points over to a distant room. (The dream topography gets weird here. You see, I live in a small house, my first floor is pretty small as well. What happened was, try to imagine that one of the walls has disappeared. Now instead of seeing outside, you see that the house is actually in another house on some kind of huge floor with a red carpet on it. Maybe 20 meters away is another room that looks like it belongs in a mansion, and that's where they were.) I head over to them into the room. (The sort of temporal rift in the space time continuum closes behind me and now I'm just in the room). This room looks like it belongs to a rich musician. There are guitars hung up, record albums, stuff like that. It has a nice patterned carpet and a few leather couches. There's a record player here too, but it's a bit odd. In stead of a real record player it's just kind of a small rod sticking out of the wall. A record is slid onto that rod via the whole in it's center and it begins to play through the room's sound system. For some reason the record and the actual cover album are slid on both together. When I get there a record is already playing. The art for it is the outline of a man's face in red. Apparently the two of them really like this record. (I can't remember what the music sounded like). We listen to it for a bit when we later transition into a classroom. Now we're in rows of desks, and the two of them are sitting 2 rows behind me. We're watching this kind of documentary on a projector about all these criminals through history. (None of them were real criminals). Nearing the end of the documentary is the story about a particular woman. What she did was take a jar with a baby shaped grape gummy bear inside and a jar with a premature baby and threw then from her window onto the street. I just kind of found this funny. When I notice that my once house guests have now pretty much abandoned me, I decide to go and sit next to another girl in the class. At first she's a bit confused at my sudden change in seats, but soon we strike up a conversation. We're talking about something or the other, it's pretty difficult to pay attention. At some point I kind of feel a connection between the two of us. I know that she also feels the same way. The conversation turns into us telling things about each other. Soon the dream fades out. _______________ Part 2 E shows up to my house. She has a bunch of stuff on her, like bags and purses. She comes inside and sets them down on my couch, (seems like my mom isn't here). We start to talk for a bit about various things. Sometime later another kid I know, Sean, also drops by. I really don't have a problem with him visiting, mi casa su casa and such. I go upstairs for a bit and get on my computer. (In non-vivid dreams I can sometimes use my computer, but I always use it telepathically, and everything on it is pretty skewed). I remember going on facebook and checking out which of my friends have what friends. After a bit I go to the top of my staircase. Apparently Sean has left. E isn't here either, her stuff is still here though. Guess that means she's coming back, good. Then something kind of hits me. Sean wasn't really here was he? My mom was never really here was she? The previous events that happened weren't real were they? (I'm on the cusp of lucidity at this point). E wasn't actually- no, she was really here. Her stuff is here, that must mean that she was really here. So that means she'll come back, and we can start hanging out and stuff. ^_^ Yeah, there's no way she didn't actually come here, and that we didn't actually talk... Yeah... My previous realizations have destabilized the dream, but I still hold onto this reality for as long as I can. Dreamspace around me starts to become dark and distorted. Maybe everything else wasn't real, but she was real. Soon this thought is the only thing that exists, everything else has faded away. I open my eyes. Even though I'm now awake the previous thought still perpetuates through my mind. I haven't realized yet. I think, I should go downstairs, tidy up her stuff, and wait for her. It's at this moment when the cold hard anvil known as reality comes crashing down on the fragile vase known as my heart. It almost physically hurts. ;_; Side note on the "temporal rift". I think this may be the way we "transition" in dreams, but we are so accustom to it we don't notice. Maybe, I dunno.
YES! Finally i manage to get my goals right in the lucid dream and do some dream control! I am in my bed, eyes closed, but i feel that something's not right and i might be in dream already. I risk and open eyes, it's night, room looks normal, but i go ahead and take off headphones. I still hear binaural beats without headphones, so i am indeed in dream. I remember to do stabilization, i touch the bed and the blanket and engage senses. The binaural beats shortly fade out, so i guess dream stabilized. I Get up from the bed and suddenly some noise starts on in my head, similar to the one from previous lucid dream when that started to fade out, but i just think that it might be just dream trying to trick me and i move on. I decide to go to the balcony like i planned, but i lose control over movement and start walking towards the door out of the room instead for some reason. I quickly regain control and run towards the balcony door. It's closed so i just go ahead and ram it. The glass partially breaks, i check if my dream body's damaged in any way, but it's not. I do a few steps back and ram the door again, it breaks and i am at the balcony now. Noise in my head fades out. I take a look around, the dream recreated the cityscape around my house from waking live fairly exactly, there are even people walking around like usual, and it's still night. I remember my todo list and decide to try transformation, first flying being that i recalled was a dragon, but a decide to try even though i haven't tried before. I try to imagine it and imagine the feel of it, while knowing that it will be successful, but it fails. I guess i should try flying anyways and it's somewhat working. I was slowly rising in the air and in the reflection from the window i notice some sort of black wings forming on my back and i start feeling them. That feeling screws me up a bit(i haven't felt transformations in lucid dream before) and i lose control over the flight, ending up hovering back to the balcony, but hey, success! I think wings disappeared once i was on the balcony since i stopped feeling them at that moment. I recall my todo list again and next on the list was... summoning! Ofcourse out of everything i decide to try summoning a dragon. I try to imagine him appearing from various places, but no success... until i decide to look back at my room. The room was pretty dark and black dragon-like creature with yellow reptilian eyes was appearing out of shadows, though i barely could see details(should add night vision of sorts to todo list). I heard short roar and shortly it sprinted at me(it's size was enough to get through the doorway) and grabbed me with the claws, i felt the grab(but no pain of any kind or anything) and there i got waaay too excited due to all this success and the dream faded out.

Dream Lucid Semi-Lucid So here, there's only one really worth while thing that happens in this dream. I realize that there's no way my given situation can be happening. As I've said previously, I've been through many an apocalypse in my dreams. At this point, dream me has kind of come accustom to doubting there existence. What was weird to me was how strongly my dream tried to enforce in my head the fact that the event really was taking place. February 13th 2013 I'm on a school trip to europe. Were currently at a little hotel and I'm sitting around in a comfy love seat in the lobby. I fiddle around with my jackets a bit (I wear 3 hoodies at a time) and set them down on the love seat in front of me. I'm just kind of relaxing, enjoying the feeling of being in a foreign environment. Suddenly one of the teachers that I was with came over to me with a distressed look on his face. "C'mon, get your stuff, we gotta go." He says so in his typical monotone fashion. I put my jackets back on and head with him Theres no time to get my suitcase or anything else I may have left. We are in a serious hurry. I wonder what's going on that would warrant such worry. Apparently a huge pandemic had broken out throughout europe. A virus was out that was killing a staggering amount of people. We had to leave the country before the virus "came to where we are". I transition to my computer, and I'm making a post about whats going on on DV in a general sub-forum. I'm talking about how it's crazy that this sort of thing is actually happening. Then out of nowhere the thought kind of dawns on me. "Did any of this really happen?" I wonder. I mean, things like this kind of don't happen normally. This can't have been a real event, it must have been fake. Then an incredibly strong feeling of what I can describe as "realness" ached in my head. No, this really is happening but it was just an unlikely occurrence. That feeling persists for a few seconds before my doubt returns. None of this can be real, this is impossible. Wait, what does that mean again? This isn't a real event actually occurring right now? Does that mean this is a...dream? Ah damn it was.
2/13/13 bed 12am-8am Not a very good recall. Didn't drink water to wake me up as I used to do. house in a canyon, I'm moving, or coming. Sucks.
It was a partly cloudy day, the air was thick, and I was in a swamp. I stood in front of a stream of water, and I had to get to the other side. I jumped in the water and became completely submerged. The water was green but clear, enough for me to see about 20 to 30 feet ahead of me and wasn't tainted, so I swam. As I continued swimming all was normal, fish were swimming by me going with the flow of the water, was clear. I swam further and reached a part of the water where crocodiles were relaxing. I felt no fear for none were paying attention to me so why bother them. I continued to swim, as I was swimming one humungous crocodile swam really fast, chewed up a smaller crocodile and dragged it away, "HOLY SHIT!" I thought to myself. After leaving that area of water snakes were swimming by me, there were many. So many that as I was swimming in front of them, they were bumping into me as they were swimming by. I thought quickly as they were going to slow me down. I covered my head and spun my body like a drill so the snakes would swim around me like Hydrodynamics. After I was past the snakes, next came shit. Shit was now flowing through the stream of water, the water was still clear but there were many large long clumps of shit going by. At this point I became very disgusted, I thought to my self "Fuck this!" and started to swim to the surface. I wasn't drowning nor was I struggling I just didn't want to swim through shit. As I reached the surface I was met by a bright light, then I awakened.
Not much recall this time as well. I was some sort of explorer character. I was wandering in some caves and avoiding traps. There was some hidden door that looked like just cave wall and required concentrating energy in hand and directing it at the lock to open it. Shortly i found a boy who was a warrior, we had dialogue where he was talking about 1576xxx(can't recall last 3 numbers) of panda warriors and something else. Now i am suddenly that boy and the explorer character seems to be gone. I find a way through the cave and through some more of those hidden doors, and soon i get out of the cave. At some point i get annoyed by some gravestone and then i find an small old man. I talk with him about getting more powerful and apparently he claims to be more powerful than 1576xxx of panda warriors! He demonstrates that by OHKO'ing some random people. I say that i'll go with him as long as he don't interferes with training because that would be cheating and too easy. Dream skips. I am in some familiar area of forest, and some random girl is about to give a quest related to getting more powerful, but there are some bandits and i end up being grabbed by hand by some dude i thought was my dad. He's retreating from bandits and forcing me to go with him, though i want to fight the bandits. Dream ends shortly.
Dream Lucid Semi-Lucid Well this is weird one. This is an example of one of those times dream me really should've known better. Not enough to get lucid really, but I mean come on, this was just ridiculous. I find it kind of funny that even the DCs weren't stupid enough to go along with it. February 11th 2013 I'm in the lobby of a hospital, though it doesn't look like most. It's large, empty, and the floors are granite tiles, kind of weird. I walk up to the front of the desk. "Ahem, excuse me." I call to them. I'm a bit nervous, I feel like it's kind of embarrassing to admit I got pregnant. "Yeah, what is it?" "Um , I'm pregnant?" The woman just looks at me. "Are you Sean?" "Ye-, well, I'm like Sean I guess, I'm pregnant." "Okay why are you really here?" "I just told you." "Look if you insist on waisting my time just have a seat." "No! Look!" I lift up my shirt and reveal a bloated stomach. It's actually deflated a bit since she told me that I couldn't get pregnant. Inside you can clearly see something moving around inside. This seems to grab her attention. "You know, men can't get pregnant." Oh shit, that's a good fucking point. Men CAN'T get pregnant. Wait, so then what the fuck is this?!?! "Um, so what is it? Like, a sea urchin?" The two secretaries exchange confused looks baffled at my hypothesis. "Um, yeah... Could be a sea urchin..." I'm wondering if they can just give me an x-ray and be done with it. However, I'm so embarrassed by the situation I just keep my mouth shut. _______________ So I'm just kind of hanging out with this guy (no WL counterpart). Eventually we start comparing the kinds of marijuana we have. We get into a short conversation about cannabis in general. We decide to try some of our stash. I take out a small "marijuana seed" from my dime bag and ingest it. Then, well, I got really high. It was nothing like I've ever experienced before, but loosely based on the general feeling. Can't really remember anything other than that. Well, I remember looking at my arm and seeing a small blue dragon tattoo on it whilst tripping out, but that's it. Just thought it was one of those interesting experiences I'd share.
Date: February 14, 2013 ||| Time Block: 7:00 AM to 8:30 AM ||| Length: 5 minutes. ||| Lucidity: level 3/2. ||| Entry Type: DILD ||| Major Methods: WBTB Methods: lay in bed next to my younger brother after being called; just fell asleep while not even thinking about lucid dreaming. Summary: had about 4 consecutive false awakenings (they have details, but too tired and forgetful to write them down); on 5th false awakening, finally gave up on other goals and went out the window to fly; had an amazing experience flying past our old house, picking up my sister (by her request), and flying off into the woods for many seconds, the whole way fully conscious I was dreaming and looking in awe at the scenery and the appearance of objects as they appeared; eventually hit into a power line and 'woke up'; I raced to go write it down, with Dad being there with Davey not surprising me; while thinking about what to write down, I woke up for real.
all I remember is I dreamed I was just playing call of duty, i was looking down the scope of a sniper rifle and got a double kill lol. Hey at least I'm improving since last night:P
