      Alarm after: 5:00
      Brief description: Stayed up until 3 am while reading. By then I was very tired and went to sleep, setting the alarm 5 hours later. When I woke up, I went to the bathroom, drank some water, and laid on my back, relaxed, and started counting. After a while I turned over, didn't feel anything and repeated. Gave up after what felt like 20 minutes? I think I fell asleep..
      Why it failed/succeeded: I did not hit a REM period, I guess? There were some outward distractions like birds chirping, and it was light outside and thus in my room.

      5 hours seemed like a good time since I was tired, but I never hit a REM period, so no lucid. Starting on the back was a great idea, it seems like I'm less likely to fall asleep that way. I need more patience when trying this, and if I could be tired enough after 6 hours then that would be much better since the REM periods are greater then, but that seems impossible for now.. Maybe when school starts.

      Tonight I will most likely go to bed around 2. I have nothing to get up for, so I technically have a long time to try in, but I tend to get impatient. I'll set the alarm to 5ish hours depending on how tired I am, and hopefully I'll hit a REM period.

    2. Desert Sand

      by , 07-17-2012 at 09:28 PM
      I found myself in the desert,the sands are golden and no winds are blowing,beneath my feet soft green grass I really feel safe ,in the distance a woman appears,she is wearing white armor and she has no face ,
      she reaches into the sand pulling a golden sword and milk dripping from the blade ,she points to the biggest sand dune and as I look she throws the sword into the dune ,as the sword enters I feel the earth move, the dune opens and from it came a great river of water flooding the sands , that must be why the grass grows , the woman changed her shape turning into a tree log and she drift away.

    3. What Was the TOTM Again??

      by , 07-17-2012 at 08:48 PM (Ophelia's Book O' Fun II)
      Had a DILD after WBTBing a few times.

      I dreamed I was back at ETSU, in one of the apartment style dorms. I was talking to Elizabeth (who works in the sushi department where I work irl), and her husband. I've never met her husband irl, so he was being played by Luis, our dishwasher haha. Elizabeth was rocking in a rocking chair, and as I was talking to her, I noticed that half of her face was covered in a blue and purplish bruise! I said "Damn girl, what happened to your face?" And she just darted her gaze to Luis really quickly. I looked at him and said "WTF man?!" My membery was suddenly flooded with made-up memories of her having been beaten by him before. Luis just looked really sad and said "I'm so so sorry, I'll never do it again. I promise!!!" I felt so disgusted with both of them. Then he went to the bathroom, and she went to the kitchen, asking me not to leave. I just sneaked out and headed to my own dorm across the street. I was walking a bit brisk because I didn't want them coming out after me. I suddenly started to walk-hop, and as I did this, the hopping got higher and higher, until I was almost flying. I said "Hell yeah my ass is LUCID!" I was so happy haha. I just kept jump/hop/flying, and it felt so fun, and easy, and free. No vertigo at all anymore. I went into the dorm building and kept hopping, and I remarked to myself how incredibly bright and crystal clear everything was. Bright blue sky and puffy white clouds were visible through the windows. I looked at my hands, but they were actually kind of bloated and messed up, so I just ignored them. I was thinking what I could do next, and I thought I could either go back and beat up Luis, or find a mirror. Then it hit me "TOTM!!" I struggled to remember them but I just couldn't, I could only remember the mirror one from last month. Pissed me off so bad, because I wanted to USE the mirror to go to an alien planet, I just couldn't remember it. Then I thought I could just summon a computer and go look it up on DV, but I didn't want to waste my lucid time fumbling with keys and such, so I just said screw it and went for a mirror. There was one conveniently hanging on the dorm wall, just big enough to probably poke my head through. I put my face on the cold glass, and it immediately softened and let my head pass through. The scene opened into the back of the dairy case from work. Oddly enough, the sushi department had moved in there, because it was a large cooler basically. And one of the seafood department guys was in there, making salmon rolls. They have this sauce made of mayonnaise, chili sauce, and tiny little fish eggs, and he was squirting it on the rolls. Instead of using a ketchup squeeze bottle like they do irl, he was using one of those aerosol squirt cans, like the kinds that Easy Cheese comes in. He saw me and asked if wanted some. I said "Hell yeah, and don't bother with a tasting spoon, I'll just open my mouth and you can just squirt it in my mouth!" So he gave me a big old squirt of sushi sauce, and it was gooooood... I could even feel the little eggs pop between my teeth. I said "See ya" and popped my head back out. I went into this breakroom looking area down the hall from the mirror, and noticed I had some how acquired 2 ears of perfectly cooked corn-on-the-cob. I took a few bites, and it was soooooooo good. Then I thought about going back to Elizabeth's dorm and beating the crap out of her husband, but I just wanted 2 more bites. Then ok, just one more. Damn this was some good corn. Then I stopped, and said "Oh shit." And woke up. I felt it 2 seconds before it happened.

      I really enjoyed this lucid. It had decent length, awesome control, and clarity. I just got distracted by food haha. What a pig.

    4. Hugging with My TS (Trans-Sexual)

      by , 07-17-2012 at 08:14 PM (Sleep as a Hobby)

      Is he the TS version of myself? Never seen him in my life, but it’s definitely someone I know full well.
      Anyway, he stared at me for a long time, and all of sudden said

      ‘Love you,’

      He smothered me with his big, free hug. Wow~ it’s so warm~~ ^_^

      For a long time we heard each other’s heart beats and warmth which felt sooo good. It was like a teddy bear hugging a mama bear. I rubbed myself into the big chest of a guy version of myself. His scent seems to tickle my nose, giving me an extra comfort and a satisfy smile.

      I smiled bitterly;
      Have I ever hugged someone in my life?
      I already know the aching answer to that question.
      I did not want to let go of him, so I gave him the best hug I could.
      A pocket of warmth filled a vacant lot I fail to notice.
      It was like one of those aching winter with knife like wind.

      Shivering with a red nose, cold as a frozen fish.
      Staying in a wooden house overflowing with coziness and love,
      Drinking the sweetest and the warmest hot chocolate,

      I just know it; he really truly loves me dearly as an unconditional love.
      The honey sweet emotion brought me a twinkling tear at the corner of my eyes.
      The warmth flows rhythmically through the whole body with beating heart.

      It’s… warm… like bathing in a hot tub… I felt rich…. And sleepy….

      It was a good dream.

    5. July 17, 2012 - First Lucid Dream! Short Flight

      by , 07-17-2012 at 07:25 PM
      I was reading about how to identify if you are dreaming just before I went to bed. The book said that it would take many days of writing down dream journal entries to finally recognize if one is dreaming.

      Anyways, when I was dreaming last night I made sure I was paying attention to my surroundings. Everything was going good until I noticed a person in front of me with only one hand, and they had a mickey mouse type of glove on (haha!). At that moment, I knew for sure I was dreaming. Once I became aware that I was dreaming, I was extremely excited since it was my first time lucid dreaming. I immediately started to fly but after a couple of seconds, my excitement got the best of me and the dream slowly faded away. For a couple of seconds, I could feel I was being disconnected, so I tried to calm down a bit, but the world was getting darker and less vivid, and then I woke up.

      I really need to learn to keep my concentration in the dreams and make sure I don't wake up!

      The weirdest thing is that I know I have felt that feeling of lucid dreaming before. It is as if I have lucid dreamed before, but just did not recognize it to be lucid dreaming.

      Extremely weird night...
    6. Fight with Diablo and an elusive cityscape.

      by , 07-17-2012 at 06:59 PM (Chard's DJing This Party)
      This was a carrot-on-a-stick dream that had me chasing after something I have only seen a couple times before in my dreams.

      I get out of bed, then walk outside. I request some rollercoaster ecstasy, but only get RE lite. In addition, as if to slap me in the face, it's accompanied by me falling through the earth into the pits of hell. I'm used to about anything in these dreams so I stay relaxed. Down there I see a monstrous form rising up out of a crouched position. I try to will it to be something cute and cuddly, but it brings its head into view and after I see 2 curved horns there can be no mistaking this for anything other than Diablo from the game (which I hadn't played in 10 years). I shoot a ball of fire at him that he easily stops with one outstretched clawed hand. He fires it back at me and I slice at it, expecting it to break up; instead, it stops mid-flight. The dream moves on before our fight could reach its conclusion.

      I am at a beach now, where a girl with big boobs (probably fake) is walking by. I say hi to her, disrobe her bikini, then suck on one for a couple of seconds, then bring her to the ground. After giving her about 5 seconds of oral, the dream moves on. A man just can't get satisfaction.

      I've seen unbelievable cityscapes of St. Louis a couple of times before, so I ride along in a car to downtown. It's nighttime. I can barely catch a glimpse of the city, missing the arch (or 2 arches as it has happened), before we move on to an apartment complex, which looked pretty cool in itself. I get out of the car and start heading back to the city, using a hookshot to get around. Over every roof I expect to see that breathtaking cityscape, but over every roof I only just see something, maybe a rollercoaster peaking or a tall, somewhat curved building bathed in dazzling lights.

      I walk inside one of the buildings blocking my view and jump up into the ceiling, digging like a rodent to reach the top. I quickly see an overview of my area and notice someone digging down to stop me. Back in 1st person, I find that our tunnels have reached each other, and his was wide enough to hookshot up. A muscular Homer Simpson joined me along the way, contributing nothing. At the top I was hoping for the city, but a fog had settled in the meantime! Ugh. I saw a bridge and knew this was it, once I get past that I would get my spectacular view. The man who was trying to stop me appeared and I just run past him yelling "You can't even appreciate this anyway, you're probably only semi-lucid!" I step foot on the bridge and...

      ...I get kidnapped. My vision turns to tunnel vision, where there is blackness all around except for a small circle. I look about and slowly deduce that I'm on a boat in a swamp with a large rickety house on an island in the middle of it. I'm taken inside to the kitchen and my vision returns to normal. I find a box of cereal and grab it, munching on the food to console my disheartened self. One of the kidnappers uses telekinesis to draw the box away from me and I use telekinesis to get it right back, so I can eat while I continue to brood.

      I am now back at my house. I realize there's a pool now and think "Oh cool" right before I am thrust backward like in karate movies where someone is punched super-hard. I take control now and start flying, making my way back to St. Louis until I decide willing myself there would be faster. I arrive just short of the same bridge as before, but it's up on a terrace so I have to hookshot up a few ledges. At least this time there's no fog to deal with. I walk through 2 brick monuments on either side of the entrance to the bridge, then find out I have a bit farther to go as the bridge arcs upward and I can't see past it's peak. I move pretty quickly hookshotting the sides of the bridge, then...

      I wake up.

      I had a couple of long dreams last night, but I'm lazy and going to shorten them :p

      Dream One: I was at my grandpa's house (who has been dead for over a year now) My brothers ex girlfriend was there, and she had a horse and a dog, but only one lead line for both. They kept getting away, and I'd take the lead line and fetch one, then by the time I got the one animal back to the house the other would have taken off into the woods or towards the street and I'd have to go rescue that one, just to have the cycle repeat. At last I insisted we find another lead line, and when I was looking for it in a shed, I ended up finding a cat with kittens. At some point the horse starts rubbing it's neck against me, and I remember how warm and happy I was to hug the horse. I forgot how much an animals "hug" can feel like hugging your best friend, lol.

      Dream Two: I was in an old historical area driving downtown, trying to find my way and constantly getting lost.

      Dream Three: I'm looking at a store display for a new sims game, and thinking to myself that I've seen this game in my dreams. It was a 60s style stuff pack for the game, and I kept thinking this is so awesome! I dreamed this pack before it came out. If only I'd realized I was STILL dreaming -_-

    9. 2 Lucids in One Night!

      by , 07-17-2012 at 05:29 PM (eMCLucid's Dream Journal)
      First off, I'd like to thank Kraom for mentioning the SSILD technique to me, and whoever mentioned the underwater breath-holding technique on #DVA last night. Now, I did not wake up to journal these techniques (since I was trying to chain dreams together via the DEILD technique), but here is what I remember.

      I woke up 5 hours after falling asleep. Began to do the SSILD reps, and when I fell back asleep, I was in a wildly vivid dream. I knew I was there for a reason, sort of a half-lucidity. Eventually I decided it was time to take full control of the dream. The setting was in this wooded area, with log houses and dirt roads. I was flying down the dirt roads and hurling fire at the houses, so I was lucid for most of the dream, yet I never had that "Eureka" moment when I go directly from non-lucid to lucid in an instant, often waking me up. Anyway, walk into a house, and there is a dark room. I remember writing on Monday that I wanted to speak with my Anima. I yelled out "I want to talk to my Anima!" This was astonishing for 2 reasons:
      1) I've never yelled out or really used my dream voice before when lucid.
      2) When I did this, a wave of color swept over the room.
      There in front of me, stood my best female friend from high school. She started talking, but I couldn't make out the words, and the dream faded rapidly.

      Normally this is where I wake up. Not this time!
      I layer completely still and didn't open my eyes. HI started engulfing my vision, and soon enough, I was in another dream! The only thing I remember about this lucid is that I had sexy time with a smoking hot girl

      Eating Lunch and Saincara (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I'm inside of a family's house, and apparently it's the family of a man in waking life called Mo. That's not his full name, but let's go with that.

      It seems outside is either early morning or early afternoon, because it's fairly bright. Maybe it's too bright for a reason, so that I would focus on the interior of the house more. There's a shiny wood flooring I'm standing on, and furniture, the objects, and the house itself are very realistic.

      There's isn't a Half-Life 2-esque kind of graphic style that I normally see, it's real just like in waking life. Mo is trying to get his family to come together to eat with me, and it feels like this meal would be my last in the house for the time being.

      I think I explore the house a little more in the mean time, but I can't remember all that I did. I think I went to a closet to decide which shirt and pants to wear.

      I'm not sure if this experience that I'm going to mention is a separate dream, but it felt connected with this dream.

      As I'm trying to decide what clothes to wear in the guest bedroom, I see some activity outside through the window on my right. I see three characters from Code Lyoko.



      Ulrich was wearing a shirt, with a small dress shirt opened on top of it. He was trying to confess his love for Yumi, and after a bit of stuttering, he finally tells her that he loves her. I assumed Yumi would say she loved him as well, but she just stands there with her eyes wide opened.

      Ulrich is still waiting for her to acknowledge his confession, and Yumi finally takes one step back and shakes her head. She couldn't say anything back to him and runs away. Sissy, the third character that's outside, gets near Ulrich to console him.

      I can't really tell if Ulrich feels bad, to me, it felt like he knew Yumi wasn't ready for that confession, even though they had many many many MANY MANY MANY moments in the actual show that they had feelings for each other.

      Then I believe the environment shifts a bit,
      and I'm not even sure if this fragment belongs here, but oh well, here goes.

      There isn't anyone outside at the moment, there's just a gray bench, and how it's represented is just like the Code Lyoko art style, so I guess it looks like it's painted, but it's still realistic, just a bit. While I'm staring at the bench and the rest of the environment outside, I hear two people talking.

      I focus on one point in the environment outside, and then blank out on the rest, then I see subtitles on the bottom of the area I'm looking at. The two men talking, even though I can't see where they are right now, are talking about some kind of Camp located in Africa.

      The man declares about a location called the Saincara? Something along those lines, and then the guy tries to correct him by saying, "Don't you mean the Sahara?" The other guy confirms that he's not confusing it with the Sahara, and he goes on to explain that it's some lost location on the map, and that it was sort of like a camp for a specific group of people.


      After that little soap opera and Saincara
      (I think it's really Saincara he said now, but I won't go too much into it), I shift my attention back to the closet, I finally decided what I wanted to wear! I already had a plain white shirt on, it looked like it felt tight on me. I wanted to wear a dress shirt on top of it opened. The sleeves were a little longer than the usual dress shirt, maybe 3-4 inches more.

      I decided I should fold the edges up a little bit, and then it felt uncomfortable, so I unfolded them. I go down stairs, and I see the family of Mo are waiting for me and one other random person. I sit down, and there's some random blonde guy, who seems to be their butler or something, and is handing out their food.

      He's a fairly tall man, blonde hair, but he looked a little too old to still have nice hair. He's wearing a fancy dark blue dress shirt that's buttoned up, slim light blue jeans, and a very enthusiastic expression towards everyone.

      He manifests the plates out of nowhere, for all I know, he could've just pulled them out of his ass or something.........

      But no one cared, so I conformed and decided to not worry about it either. I forget what he serves to Mo, his wife, and his daughter, but I do know that they were completely random food objects. When he serves my plate to me, it's basically Guacamole and Chips. While he was putting the plate in front of me, he said the meal's name in what seemed to be in a French Language.

      Must be from all the French talk during my vacation.

      I look at the plate for a while, it's a dark blue plate, and the Guacamole looks like it's LEGIT Guacamole, with some bell peppers chopped up, and some decent corn Tortilla Chips. Before we could actually eat, Mo and his family prepare for grace.

      Now, I may be putting a stereotype here, but I don't think this type of family would be one to use Grace with their cultural beliefs...but whatever...

      Mo is to the right of me, and his wife is to the left of me. He closes his eyes, and she does as well, and they both spread their hands out to me. It takes me a while to understand what they're doing, and then I realized they're saying Grace. I quickly held their hands, and put my head down to listen to what Mo was saying.

      Within 5-10 second, he's already finished with declaring Grace. He says something at the end like, "Thank you God." etc etc., probably for the food on the table.

      I take one chip and scoop a huge load, since I didn't get a lot of chips in the first place.

      The Guacamole almost tastes exactly like the one I had in a Hispanic Restaurant in College Station or Bryan, Tx. It still felt bland, but I ate it anyway, and once I'm done eating, I say, "Excuse Me."

      Seems no one here cares about anyone having basic table manners....oh well. I pick up my plate, and I head over to the sink and put it in there. I see a small plate filled with some Ginger Ale. Eradicating all basic logic in my mind that it's supposed to be in a bloody cup, I take it and drink it.

      I felt the fizz swirling in my mouth, and it tastes pretty good, very refreshing. I try to look to see if the wife was looking at me, because I wanted to pour more Ginger Ale on the plate. I did my best to make it look like I'm looking at something else, and tried to use my peripheral vision to make sure I wasn't trying to do the obvious.

      Seems she's still busy eating, and I guess I was just being paranoid in trying to get another shot of Ginger Ale. I pour it out slowly, and drink it a little slower this time, since I couldn't have a lot on the small plate.

      I forget what I did next, but I believe the dream after this one somehow correlates to this one.

      But about the Saincara thing, I don't have a lot of background on it, but based on what I read and searched, it involves something about how desire is born and grows.

      Hmmm....my desire for what exactly?

      I have several "desires," but I never really fulfill them, or at least don't think that I can.

      Public Bathroom (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      It feels like this dream was a continuation of the previous one, so I presume that after I left Mo's house, I'm inside a Public Restroom. The flooring is light gray, the walls are dark gray, and the ceiling itself is probably light gray as well.

      The bathroom stalls are dark gray, so even though things are a bit bland for a bathroom, it contrasts pretty well. I see a man wearing a dark gray jacket and hat
      (like the hats that Mafia members wear) and shiny black shoes. He goes into a bathroom stall, and something about that guy bothered me.

      He wore glasses, looked like he was in his 50-60s, and he was holding his hand with his left hand, and using his right hand to cover up the opening of the jacket he didn't button up all the way.

      Maybe he was just preparing to take them off when he was going in the bathroom stall, but because he held that position with his hands before he even reached 1 feet away from it, it felt suspicious to me.

      By this time, I do my business and get out of the bathroom.

    12. School in the Summer?

      by , 07-17-2012 at 04:19 PM (Katos' Dream Journal.)
      17 July 2012

      In my dream for some reason I was drinking water, very much water. Was I thirsty (in reality) but I didn't know that? I was going at home from my high school when the day was over, the road though had been changed, it wasn't the same road, I have just realized (in my dream) that I have changed school but I forgot about it. But still, why would I go to school in the Summer?

      On the return, I was with my classmate, I was holding a plate with 4-5 pieces of beef. Which I've got them from a house somewhere on the mountain where the people there had a BBQ time. (I was actually there yesterday with my dad although the place wasn't the same.) Did I've just got teleported from there to school?

      Anyway, after that incident, we came across a road that was blocked, we crossed down from the chain that were holding a warning sign that the road is blocked and we reached to a mini market. From there, as I remember, in my purse I had only 1 euro so I bought some chocolate. As I bought them I opened the packing and I started eating them (before paying). My classmate had decided what to buy so he left without waiting for me to pay. I got stressed searching for my 1 euro that I was sure that I had. Suddenly, the cashier asks: "Will you pay me?" I replied: "Just wait for a moment to find my money." "Ok." he said.

      I left from the mini market. I don't remember though whether I have paid him or not, maybe I didn't. My friend had already did a distance so I have decided that I will go home without him. Suddenly, I have seen a perfect scenery, it was a village that had houses made out of wood left and right. The ground, was made out of wood too. That place was pretty much the same as a mod that I had on Skyrim called "Sexy Whiterun" (Whiterun is a city at Skyrim). As I was walking I saw a place like a street market, it was almost the same as the one that I have where I live. Suddenly, between the crowd I saw in the depth my mother coming, I saw her and I waved at her. She replied: "I came here to take you back home because I thought you got lost.". I then replied: "Its ok mom I could go back home on my own.". As the market was, it was surrounded by water, on the water there was the Statue of Liberty (or something similar), my mother approached it in order to touch it with her hands of course but she fell into the water. I gave her my hand so that I would help her but I grabbed her foot, I let it go and she managed to get out of it on her own. I thought that we would leave from there and get to the house, but we didn't. We went around to eat some food. We have found a random shop where we sit. My mom ordered a dish of french fries without asking me, the portion was petty though.. Since she didn't know where to put them because she didn't ask for a dish, using a fork, placed them on a random dish. I asked her: "Is that dish our own or someone elses?", she replied: "Someone elses.". That moment I got mad and left. Suddenly, I see myself inside my house I was in my bedroom and I was going to shut my PC down. I saw it shutting and I went to the kitchen (probably to get some water). After that I realized that I wanted to use my PC, I ran back to my bedroom, I saw the screen that opens when you choose to shut down your PC but it didn't have the options "Force Shut Down" and "Cancel" so I couldn't cancel it. I tried once more and I went back to my login screen this time though the login screen was completely different.

      This is how my dream ends. I know its kinda fast and unexpected but I somehow liked that dream.

    13. Something Weird

      by , 07-17-2012 at 04:05 PM (Inside the Mind of Mattlantis)
      This one's pretty fuzzy, I only got 5 hours of sleep. First, I was watching a girl, somehow become more and more corrupt and evil, in some sort of garden with a fountain, maybe in the courtyard of a castle. Then all I remember is something weird happened that made me want revenge, so I got a sword, got pumped, and jumped into some sort of original Legend of Zelda fight between myself and this thing.

      Fight at School

      I was in a school setting. It reminded me of my elementary school at one point, but nothing else about the dream had anything to do with it.

      It was very crowded. A black guy wanted to fight me for some unknown reason.

      He ended up getting brass knuckles. This idea was carry-over from a movie I recently saw. I was terrified. I got a broom stick or a mop handle with nothing attached to it and hid it behind a door so the guy wouldn't see it when he came after me. I wanted the element of surprise.

      At one point I saw some school officials and I said, "I hope you're going to protect me!" I figured it was their job to protect students, though they didn't seem to care.

      Eventually the guy reached out and gave me the brass knuckles. They were thinner than they would be in waking life. He looked at me as if to say, "Don't worry white boy; I'm not going to hurt you."

      I was so relieved. I gave the brass knuckles back to the guy.

      Girl

      A girl Bv came up to me. She was looking at my clothes. She said, "Are those boxers?" I said, "Yea." She said, "Can I see?" I showed her the top of them. My hip bone was showing. She was acting like she wanted me, so I said, "Come here" and led her down a step and around a corner where nobody could see. I wanted her to put her hand down my drawers, but then she backed away. She said she couldn't. I was very disappointed.


      Art

      I was in a bedroom, but much of it was set up like a shop of sorts. People had come over to buy stuff. At one point they went into another room. A guy was in the room as if an employee. He straightened up the place while the customers were in the other room. I told another DC that he was doing a quick "puff and tuck" which is a term we used to use at a bedroom store when we had to straighten up.

      I found it odd that he would do a retail straightening up in a bedroom, but he was gay and he liked making sure everything was just so.

      Then the people came back into the main room. Now they were looking at art that was in the room. The manager of the old bedroom store told them to hold on. He wanted to show them something. He left and came back with some art that I had done and given him many years ago.

      This art was in the style of art I did many years ago with particle board, india ink, glass chips, and little stones to make stars and planets. The wood was cut into a semi circle. Another was an oval canvas.

      I got a pretty good look at one of the pieces. There were three planets in a nearly straight line. There were also glass chips that made up curved lines. The were either colored glass, or I had painted a representation of reflection nebula around them. The constellations were labeled Enceladus and Titan (not constellations in waking life, but moons of Saturn.)

      This is carryover from a sound project I've been thinking about.

      I would like to try to make this piece of art just to see something from a dream on a regular basis, but I'm not set up for it. maybe some day.

    15. First Lucid Dream

      by , 07-17-2012 at 01:20 PM (Fennecgirl's Collection of Dreams)
      I had my first lucid dream this morning! I was in my house; everything was normal. I was playing something on the computer. I got up and went into the kitchen. When I went past the sliding door to the deck, a sound played from my computer, and it caused snow to appear outside.

      That didn't seem right, so I looked at my hand and counted my fingers. I had six, but it was hard for me to focus on counting, so I only counted five. Something just looked a bit off about my hand, though, so I counted again - six!

      "Oh my gosh, I'm dreaming!" I shouted, getting really excited. As the dream began to destabilize, I remembered that I had to remain calm and control my excitement. It was too late, though; I knew I was about to wake up.

      I woke up on the couch at thirteen minutes past midnight (despite having fallen asleep in bed at six-something AM). Nothing around me actually changed, so it was barely even a false awakening. Excited, I told my mom I'd finally had an LD and held up my hand, telling her I'd become lucid after counting six fingers. I still had six, but I didn't notice because I didn't actually count them this time. I woke up a couple minutes later.
