      Sasuke's Ultimate Attack (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID


      +

      Lol, this Ultimate Attack was so funny....


      Alright, I'm watching Sasuke Uchiha from Naruto Shippuden face Orochimaru again, and he already has Orochimaru trapped in some kind of Susanoo hand that's starting to form from the bottom of his feet.

      The hand gets bigger and bigger and eventually contains Orochimaru almost completely. As the hand or whatever part this glowing violet aura is getting close to reaching completion, I think I stepped on a wire.

      The Susanoo starts degrading......LOL, it needs a power outlet.

      LMFAO, what kind of ultimate attack is that if you need an electrical outlet???

      Instead of almost rolling on the floor laughing, I quickly plug the plug back into the outlet.

      Lmaooooooo.

      I forget what happens next, but I guess Sasuke succeeds.

      Riding my Bicycle (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I'm riding a bicycle, and it seems to be the one I use in waking life, but I didn't pay too much attention to verify that. Someone says my bicycle is for little kids basically, and I get a little mad because the size would be too much for little children anyway.

      I ignore the person who tells me this, and I continue riding until I reach an intersection. I wait for the Walk sign to turn on, and I go on the wrong lane (left side). Someone else was doing it, which prompts me to do so as well.

      I didn't hear any honking from the busy traffic, so I guess the logic of the America road system was eradicated in this dream. I continue riding my bicycle on the left lane, and see a car coming up.

      I quickly shift to the extra lane to the left, and let it pass. After that, I presume I continue riding on the left lane.

      Age Regression? (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I'm following some tall male in the dream, but I can't see him at all. Seems we're at some party, and it's very dark outside. There's quite a few people here as well. Some are already leaving to come home, and some are coming through the garage that is open to enter through the door where one section of the party is held.

      While I'm following this guy, I think I see some small hairball with a small piece of transparent tape on it. I don't know how it appears, but I quickly throw it somewhere else. The guy I'm following says we're going to get something to eat, probably because the food in the party sucks or some weird excuse, not too sure.

      I think I see my mother, lol.

      Okay, she's wearing a black dress I believe, and I can't see much of her visage because it's dark outside, but the guy said she was my mother, I think.

      The car we go inside of is dark red, and it seems the seats were flooded with water a little, but it didn't bother either of us. I wanted to ask this random dude I still don't know who I'm following where we are going to eat, but I kept quiet.

      For some reason, I felt like I was a 6 year old child in this dream, it's like some kind of age regression occurred at some point here.

      I think the guy said I could go anywhere I would like to eat, and I made a joke and said,

      "Let's go to Canada and eat at Tim's." (The Tim Hortons place)

      I don't know how I came up with that as an initial joke, but I acknowledged to the man that I was merely joking. I have my elbow on the side of the door of the passenger's seat, and look through the window as the night starts to fade away and early morning makes itself apparent.

      That's all I remember.

      I don't think the male was my father, it was definitely someone else. But the fact that I didn't even see his visage or any signs of obvious physical attributes annoys me a bit.

      Wolf Armor (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      It seems I'm playing Runescape, but how I'm experiencing it is weird. It feels I'm controlling the character while moving at the same time simultaneously.

      I think I'm killing some Greater Demons, or some kind of weird dark red monster that was way taller than I was, at least for the character I was playing.

      Then I see someone wearing a Wolf Mask, along with some weird looking armor. It was black and had gold trimming, but this armor was only placed on the elbows and the needs of the person. The person had a wolf-like body, a skinny torso and slightly wider hips.

      You could say that it was like a Lucario from pokemon, just for the body structure, not the face. The person in this wolf form was attacking another player who was trying to kill Tormented Demons in Runescape.

      Wow, that would be a horrible experience for the player being attacked because Tormented Demons uses all three forms of attacks: Mage, Range, and Melee. Just keeping track of which protect prayer to use to make yourself invincible to the attacks of the Tormented Demons is one thing, but if you add that player attack him, it makes it even more complicated.

      I don't know what happens to the Runescape character, but I assume he got destroyed pretty quickly. I remember the wolf-like character doing constant verticle flips and even floated in the air while rotating when he attacked the player.

      Crazy.

      Age Regression Part 2 (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Seems I feel like my age in this dream now, and I think I see the guy I'm following a little better now. I believe he's wearing a blue dress shirt with black slim corporate type of pants.

      He's shaking his head about something, and I think I tell him that there's some other way we can approach the matter that I forgot about.

    3. 20th June 2012 - Seventh Lucid Dream [Partial WILD & Advanced Task of the Month]

      by , 06-20-2012 at 04:10 PM
      Italic Text = Personal Thoughts
      Normal Text = Non-Lucid Segment
      Light Purple Text = Partially Lucid Segment
      Purple Text = Lucid Segment

      I woke up 4hr30m after originally going to sleep to attempt a WILD as per the current homework task in Sageous' WILD class. I stayed up for approximately 30 minutes writing down my dreams and generally walking about as suggested.

      I laid back down to attempt a WILD and repeated my mantra while focusing as much on self-awareness as possible. I think my main issue was that I got a bit too focused on the HI and what I guess was the beginning sensations of sleep paralysis because each time I noticed it I woke myself up too much.

      I probably could have gone a bit longer, but I was laying there for about 35 minutes and decided I'd roll over onto my side to try another attempt. At some point I guess I must have just gone to sleep, but it must have somewhat worked because I was partially aware of the fact that I was dreaming when I got into the dream, I didn't even perform any reality checks.


      I was back in this test lab style location, the same place I was at in my previous dream of the night, only this time instead of being a test subject for the experiments of this lab I was in a quarantine prison. I was somewhat aware of the fact I was dreaming at this point but the dream is also somewhat hazy. I remember breaking out of the quarantine prison with another person who was with me, and from this point we avoided the guards and made our way to the exit of the test lab.

      Upon getting outside, the dream world was somewhat restricted, there was a small patch of grass outside and then the world just cut off in a perfect line and disappeared into a void of many, swirling colours.

      I decided I would jump off the edge and as I was falling I repeated to myself "I will fall into a lucid dream"


      After a few moments of conscious blackness I open my eyes and see I'm in this room and lucid, there are no ends to the room and it seems to stretch on forever, but it's quite narrow. Both walls are different colours and there are doors on each wall, in more colours. There are lots of objects, kids toys mainly, scattered over the floor in assorted colours also.

      I look at the wall and for some reason decide it'd be a good idea to try and "pull" a rainbow from the picture of swirled colour on the wall, but then I stop myself. I remember that I need to do the Task of the Month which is a revelation for me as I never remember to do anything in my lucid dreams.

      I remember what Sageous said about forming your dreams, using schemas to build a world around you. I notice one of the kids toys on the floor is a train and I focus on that and try to build a scene around it. I put my hands together (though unsure why, I guess I thought it would help) and close my eyes.

      When I open my eyes I'm in another small box area, there are brick walls all around me but there is no roof, I can see the sky above me. There are inactive trains, train carts and coaches on multiple tracks in this around and running through the middle of the area was another track extending into dark tunnels on each end.

      I looked into one of the tunnels and a train just kind of "appeared", I move out the way and it speeds by out of the tunnel and quickly disappears into the tunnel at the other end. It seems my subconscious mind had created the most convenient location possible for me to do the Task of the Month, because every 15 seconds or so another train would appear and speed by before disappearing into the tunnel.

      I spend a moment and try to figure out how I'm going to jump on top of this train, I focus my mind above the entrance tunnel and try to pull out a ledge from the brick wall that I could stand on, but I couldn't seem to make anything budge. I decide that I could make a jump from one of the nearby stationary trains and onto the speeding train, if I jumped far enough. For some reason just flying up never crossed my mind, which is strange because flying is usually one of the first things I remember to do in my lucid dreams.

      Just as I'm preparing to jump I notice the exit tunnel isn't that large and I would probably go smashing into it if I jump on top of the train. I make an attempt at expanding the area so I could fit through, but just like the wall previously it wouldn't budge. I figure that this is a lucid dream and I would just chance it, hoping my subconscious would follow my will to not be smashed to death by a brick wall and expand as I approached it on top of the speeding train.

      A few more trains pass and I prepare myself, eventually I leap and just manage to latch on to the train. I climb up and the train appears to be quite thin so I'm laying on top of it clutching on for dear life, as I approach the tunnel I feel the top of the roof scrape my head and my back and then it seemingly disappears, no troll subconscious for today!

      I assume I get too excited riding on top of the train as I pass through the tunnel, because next thing I know I'm back in my bed.


      I open my eyes and start recalling my lucid, excited that I completed the Task of the Month and couldn't wait to get on the computer and write on DreamViews about it. I look at the time briefly and then pick up my dream journal and read over the dream I had previously that night and as I pick up my pen and begin to write down my lucid, my vision becomes really blurred. I couldn't quite figure out what was going on. I rub my eyes and when I open them again I've seamlessly transferred back into my bed, laying down again.

      I'm obviously completely blown away now, I had never experienced such a realistic False Awakening before, I even checked the time and read over my previous dream! When I sat up I had to perform multiple reality checks just to make sure I still wasn't dreaming because I no longer trusted my reality. I even specifically recall reading what was in my dream journal, and when I picked up my actual dream journal the previous dream in there was different to the one in my dream and I wasn't sure which one was real and which wasn't.

      All in all, an amazing lucid and I guess a half-successful WILD, maybe.
    4. My Dream Life

      by , 06-20-2012 at 04:08 PM
      I am recording every dream I can remember, from Wednesday 20th June 2012. I hope I can carry this for a long time and eventually be able to fully control lucid dreams.

      Tues 19th June 2012

      Dream 1;
      scene setting/thoughts non-lucid lucid

      I can't remember how I got here, but I'm rushing into the entrance of a large food store, perhaps a Tesco, due to the large amounts of white and blue I saw. Behind me there's a large black bus, like one of the fancy ones that celebrities use to tour on, I can't remember any other scenery, except the fact there's many table and chairs outside the large store.
      I was running inside the store, I was with my family and there were many strangers along with us. It seemed we were in a battle, to do the usual amount of food shopping in the quickest time. I can remember being shunted and pushed as we first entered. My family and I ran for the crisp section, I noticed the prices were very very cheap, and everything was in bulk. Nothing was sold separately. We ran around the store with unlimited amount of money. Picking up food and throwing it at the other families which were competing with us. I can't remember what happened next

      Dream 2;
      scene setting/thoughts non-lucid lucid

      I am in the car park of a large Temple, the temple was filled with Blues and Greens, it had big yellow doors and to the left hand side there was a huge wall, and opposite was a large forest. The car park was exactly same layout as my old High School. My friends, mum and dad were here, not with me but they were inside the Temple/Castle. The temple was filled with strangers whom I've never met before. [COLOR="black"]Drinking something in the car park, I saw my dad (influenced by alcohol possibly) getting in an argument with some hard looking men, they had bald heads with red face paint. He got into a fight and I ran across the Car Park, the faster I ran the longer the area would become, so I ran at super speed, as if I was traveling countries and got to the fight. Punching the first man in the face, with all my might, I felt as though I didn't barely hit him, and that it didn't hurt. But he fell to the floor, in agony. I then turned and punched the second man, with exactly the same sensation and he did the same thing. Their body's disappeared to another place, I don't know how, but I could feel their presence, it was evil. I ran into the large temple, It was split into 4-6 sections, each section contained some sort of boss and a selection of weapons just before the main boss rooms. I turned back and ran over to my friends from school, I remember yelling at them that my dad was getting beaten up and I needed their help, they followed me outside, getting outside was fairly easy, as though I just had to get across a bar filled with people. I don't remember any rooms or pathways but I was outside very quickly. When we got outside there was about 4-5 men, they looked half-serpent and mermaid, a bit like these Characters from World of Warcraft;


      They were dark blue/black and had bald heads, with red facepaint going down their whole body. A bit like the men I was fighting with earlier. Everyone hushed as we got outside, I saw the serpent-men coming closer, they forced me to sit down, as well as my father so they could investigate us and the whole fighting scenario. I noticed they didn't speak, they traced their hands over our heads, poked and squeezed a little. As if examining our brains. Behind me was a female, and she walked around infront of me and stared into my eyes, she was an attractive lady, even though she was half-serpent. She had very very long fingers, with large red finger nails, they were very long, almost a yard long. She started to trace her fingers around my face and neck, examining. She then put her finger inside my mouth, I couldn't feel her fingernails at all, as though they disappeared as she touched my mouth. I can still specifically remember the taste of her fingers, they were sweaty, slightly salty as well. They had a damp feel and I could taste the skin. It tasted just like a human finger except from certain things, her skin was wrinkly but had a very smooth texture. I think there was some blood on her fingers aswell, I could taste blood.
      I can't remember how, but
      my dad and I were suddenly in a green bubble, I couldn't see out of it and I didn't struggle to get out. Instead I just let it ride, I looked around and was in a mountainous region, but I could still see the sea about 200 meters away, I couldn't see the Temple, I looked to my left and noticed a large lake, it seemed very deep and the water was quite clear. I couldn't see the bottom, as I went closer to examine the water, a human, with blue skin and a very large body jumped out of the water. Just like a dolphin, it swam towards me the same way a dolphin would. I panicked and couldn't find my dad behind me, I was alone. I looked in the palm of my hands and I imagined a sword, a large scimitar suddenly appeared in my grip, I imagined armour on me, sure enough I tried walking and I was much heavier, I looked at my feet and saw chainmail. I was waiting for the Dolphin-Man to come attack me, but it just turned around and swam peacefully. I then saw my dad behind me, as though he disappeared when danger was near, he was back. He also had a scimitar, shorter then mine, and chainmail on. Suddenly I turned around again, and there was a large boss, I can't remember how it looked or how big it was, but I knew it was a boss. It swiped at us with something, then I woke up.

    5. 06/19/2012 and 06/20/2012 - "Pre-emptive Scare" and Fragments

      by , 06-20-2012 at 03:13 PM (Oneironaut Zero: Dreamwalker Chronicles)
      06/19/2012
      Dream Fragment One:

      I was in some large, cylindrical chamber, and had just 'acquired' a bad-ass, jet-black racing motorcycle. I spent a little while in this chamber, spinning the tires and riding up and down elevations in the architecture. Later, I had gotten the bike on the night road, and was riding along side some friend of mine, but don't remember the rest.


      Dream Fragment Two (I think):
      (I'm pretty sure this was a separate dream, but can't say that I'm certain.) I was with BR, T and maybe one or two other friends. We were riding BMX bikes and jumping some dirt ramps in the woods. At one point, BR jumped off a short ramp and didn't quite clear the gap, but was able to jump his feet off of the pedals with enough time to catch himself on the elevated platform, before falling back down into the gap. A short time afterward, I was going back the other way - jumping from the elevated platform, and using the short ramp as a catch ramp - and caught my front tire on the catch ramp, face-planting in the dirt. I remember getting up and wondering about how strange it was that it didn't hurt, though I wasn't aware enough to become lucid.



      06/20/2012
      Dream Fragment One:

      I was splitting two adjacent hotel rooms between myself and about 4 girls, some of whom I recognized - some I didn't. It was just all kinds of fun. Lol. I really don't remember all that much, besides all having a lot of laughs as we moved from room to room, and then sharing a bed with two of them, when it was time to crash. The next morning, something happened to where we found out that there were some people after us, and the 3 of us in the room I was in had to use some secret tunnel to take us from our room and (somehow) across the hall to the other room, so that we wouldn't be there when our pursuers busted in our door.


      Dream Two:
      "Pre-emptive Scare"


      One of those strange "in-between" dreams, where you can't tell if you're fully-awake, dreaming, or just having some hypnopompic hallucinations...)
      I was lying in bed with my eyes closed, facing the wall, when I heard my mom getting ready for work and talking to my daughter out in the hallway. I then heard someone messing with my doorknob, which is locked. Then, I heard CJ whispering to my mom to unlock the door, so she could come in and scare me while I was sleeping. Somewhat smiling at myself at this, I decided to play possum for a minute, to see if she would really try.

      The door quietly creaked open. I could hear it from behind me as I continue to face the wall with my eyes shut. I began wondering if this was really happening, because it was so out of the ordinary (my daughter would have never unlocked my door to come in my room), but the more I questioned it, the clearer I heard her feet softly shuffling across the carpet toward my bed. Still not really sure whether I was really awake or not, I turned really quickly and sort of half-shouted "raaah!" at where I knew she would be.

      But she wasn't there, and I was now fully-awake, and staring at an empty room, feeling a little foolish for having tried to scare someone who wasn't there.

      (As much as I'm fascinated by those 'threshold-of-waking' tricks that our minds play on us, they do have a way of making you feel stupid when you fall for them. Lol.)
    6. Coping with Mental Pain

      by , 06-20-2012 at 03:07 PM
      I don't remember much but I'll try my best at trying to explain what I saw in little bits. Okay first, I was in a house somewhere in a land far away. The place looked so familiar and just felt so familiar. I'm inside a house that really had no rooms, only a hallway and ever time I dream of this same place, I wouldn't remember if there were people or not. It was sort of like just thoughts that I was picturing. I'm not sure how to explain it. Anyways, Sometime when I was inside this narrow hallway, I was crying again over Quynh. I was in deep pain. I cried so much for her that I didn't know what I was going to do to continue living without her. It was like my pain doubled from waking life. But I while I was crying, I thought about the pain I have to endure to finally get her out of my life. I thought about just forgetting everything about her, then I won't be so sad anymore. I suppose this made me feel better upon awakening because I wasn't dealing with as much mental pain than the dream. I was also thinking of the group therapy session I had the previous day when we talked about this. I also remember being in the kitchen with my mom while she was serving me some drinks. I still felt a little bad about not being able to see Quynh again but I told my mother I would eventually forget about her.
    7. I am Satan

      by , 06-20-2012 at 02:01 PM
      I am in another city. It is dark with skyscrapers everywhere, felt like NYC. I am on the edge of a roof of one building. A voice is speaking in my head. It is saying, "The crows are with you. They are attracted to you at all times" I am seeing a crow fly around me but unlike how others see it, I am seeing even it's eyes (like it has a personality just like us). I am feeling something behind me and suddenly I have 2 long, black, shiny wings and I jump off. I am flying and there is another one like me, I am chasing him but I am losing him and I am lured into the space between many building. Stuck there with no space to fly out, the crows find me. They guide me. I am following them and slowly I am rising. I am getting higher and higher even though there is not much space for my wings and in sometime, I reach the top- I escape. I am seeing the vast expanse of air around me and the eyes of the crow that lead me to it. They are telling me how to go and where to go.

    10. Being scammed at a video game store.

      by , 06-20-2012 at 01:20 PM (It's all about Awareness.)
      I remember being at this video game store in a dream I've had. I was suppose to have a meeting with someone so I went inside and I was playing Pokemon Leaf Green and I had my game boy advance with me. I was looking around for another GBA game to play. I was taking my time at the store like I usually do at retro video game stores, they sold cards there as well. The guy wanted 20 bucks per card. He made the cards him self he says. Then I had to go, I was told I was going to be left there if I wasn't ready. I noticed the Gameboy Advance section. There were a few games, there was Zelda games there as well.

      I came across a silver Zelda cartridge that hasn't been released before. The guy said, that game is pretty rare, it came with two bonus story lines and he wanted $50.00 bucks for it. I told him, fine I'll buy it, so I bought the silver cartridge and went out side to get to the car. As soon as I've got to the car, all of the sudden I saw the game changing its self into a Pokemon game, And I've got pissed and told my self. "Fuck it I just got ripped off".

    11. A Beautiful Terror World

      by , 06-20-2012 at 12:49 PM (Exploring My Mind)
      After not having very good recall for a few days, I finally remembered a dream.
      I was ready to play. I booted up my phone. The loading screen of the game was a multi-colored background with a creepy girl on the foreground. I giggled at that. The game started, and suddenly, it felt like I was in the game. The game had a Metroid Prime-ish feel to how it looked; I was using a sort of cannon as my gun. The game took your house and made a technicolored version of it where you go to kill a vampire.
      Okay, these must be dream signs. First, Grandma's house has been in so many of my dreams lately. :L And that vampire was in one dream a few months ago. Notice the slight similarity between this dream and the one where we explored my Grandma's house for monsters like a horror shooter? XD
      I explored Grandma's house, a little creeped out. The whole walls were covered by a mix of red, pink, purple, and black. The mix of colors was disorienting. I noticed that down in the basement were tons of archways to my left that led out to a large gym-like area under the basement. There, a vampire was patrolling the bleachers. "I FOUND YOU." He screamed. I screamed in return. A large spotlight shot from the gym, illuminating me. I quickly ran forward, trying to escape the light. As I escaped it, he lost sight of me. I hid in a side room. I did this for a while, till I got to the end of the hallway. Once I was there, I snuck out of the last room and crept into the gym behind the bleachers where he was standing. I climbed up the stairs and hung onto the side as I waited for him to go back. He was standing, like, right above me. Luckily, he didn't see me. I crawled on all fours around the bleachers till I got to the top.
      -insert important plot details that I don't remember here-
      I must've killed the vampire though, because I was safe and sound and now sitting in my own home, with my friend Kaylee watching me play the game once again. As the game booted up, and the creepy girl appeared on the cover, she pointed at it and said, "That looks like me!"
      And yeah, that's about everything I remember.
    12. Hospital and flying in a Helicopter

      by , 06-20-2012 at 12:33 PM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      1.
      Somehow I know my wife is a big shot executive in a hospital. I am lost and wondering around in a hospital (dream sign) looking for my wife. There is a very "Grey's Anatomy" feel to it (I hate that show). I find my sister in a glass room. It is a recording studio. She opens the door for her daughter and my sister smiles at me.

      2.
      I see my other sister and her ex husband. I hate the man. But they are happy together and they get in a helicopter (possible dream sign). They ask me if I want a ride. I say no because I just don't like him. They start to lift off and I tell them I changed my mind because I have always wanted to go on a helicopter. They go back to the ground and I reluctantly climb on a what looks like a black hawk with an open side. We fly off and I try to take pictures with my phone (possible dream sign) but I can only see so far and then it fades to black.
    13. 19.06.2012 - WILD attempt semi successful, several non lucid dreams.

      Date: 19/06/2012
      Place: My holiday caravan
      Time of getting into bed: 11.50pm
      During the day I drank 1 x 500ml Monster energy drink

      WILD attempt (first ever)

      Strangely enough I decided to try it without prior sleep (don't ask me why) this took a good hour before I really felt the effects, but here is the results;

      Went to bed, relaxed, tried to get sleepy and restful. Took some time but finally felt in the right place. Found sleeping on my side the most comfortable (my sleeping position of choice)
      Was continually interupted by random banging noises - was sleeping in a caravan and sounded like the walls moving / creaking? Never noticed this before so really annoyed me!!
      Each time I was awoken I ignored it, and relaxed again - partners loud breathing kept me awake but after using it as a beat to keep my own breathing slow, it became unnoticeable. I found this bit easy.
      After some time I was clearly getting close, I could not feel my body, I kept experiencing swaying / floating sensations and my 'mind' was totally immersed. It felt a bit like I was mildly drugged up, I couldn't feel my hands or even the quilt around me. I didn't feel the need to swallow (which I have a bit of a habit of doing) I continued counting to ten, and saying ;I am dreaming' each time. I often lost my place and had to start over but remained calm.

      After an unknown amount of time, my body lit up as if on fire, but not painful. I had vibrations running through my body, which I tried to feel and control (sort of worked) it was not a bad sensation, but so real and intense that it did 'light' my brain up. Almost like going from sleepy and hypnotized to being conscious and SWITCHED ON. My ears popped as if I was underwater, and I tried to enjoy this strange sensation, telling myself I was about to enter a lucid dream!

      This sensation was exactly the same as the sensation I had when getting lucid a few nights ago. I feel like I know that I'm lucid, but I have to DO something to break through the barrier. Last time I raised my hand and pulled myself out from my 'body' so to speak. this time I didn't get a chance to. My initial idea was to 'roll over' into a dream. I didn't do this in time.
      Unfortunately I must have gotten too excited as I 'woke up'. I did a quick RC to make sure it wasn't a FA, which it wasn't. I jotted in my journal and tried to re-enter, but by then my heart was racing so fast and I was wide awake.

      It did give me incentive to try WILDing again though!

      Dream 1 - Non Lucid dream

      I am at a festival, trying to get back to my tent. There are lots of people walking around, and a large queue of traffic blocking the way. It is also very dark and very muddy, however I am not worried, I just keep walking.

      Dream 2 - Non Lucid dream

      I am somewhere, and trying to get home with my partner. We have no money to get home, but a limo pulls up looking for some famous people. We get in, pretending it is for us so we can a free lift home. It takes us to the home of the famous film stars who own the limo. We get out the limo and go in their house. Their house is big, spacious and obviously they are rich. We help ourselves to their stuff but we are not trashing the place as that would be rude. Someone knocks on the door and we panic, and hide. They soon go away and we decide it is best to disguise ourselves as the film stars so that no body suspects us. We put on their clothes, for me this consists of a dirty, white string vest and some large boots. I then have a string necklace around my neck, with beads and random bits hanging from it, a bit broken and messy. I also wear a long, dirty, thick trenchcoat. We then put egg yolk all over ourselves. No idea why. I believe we got these from the fridge.

      Dream 3- Non Lucid dream

      I am going through a drive through, although the actual company is not one that I know of (made up?) the men who work there are nice, but incompetent. They wear police helmets, and apologize for the delay. I finally get the food and drink but after drinking the fanta, it is warm. I hand it back and complain and they are nice, and agree to replace. However it takes so long to get a replacement that we decide to go for a short walk. We step out the car and see a strange gift shop. It is clear we are in a place I am unfamiliar with in my dream as I sort of explore, like a tourist. The gift shop is brown and had a big skeleton outside, it appears to sell strange and bizarre gifts. I don't go in, however, I turn left towards the main shopping area, across a square where people walk / talk / go about their lives. Here I see someone watching me / staring. I try to ignore them but I have a feeling they are going to talk to me and I really don't want them to. I am not scared, but don't like them so I try to mingle with the crowd and hide. It works. Next thing I know I am in a pub garden, playing pool (or snooker) with a friend. I notice my partner isn't here and ring them, trying to get them to join us. He will not join us because he cannot bring his own beer into the pub. I tell him we have water and this sort of changes his mind.

      Dream 4 - Non Lucid dream

      I have got some baby rats as pets. They are in a cage but I take one out to hold, it is fast and I drop it on the floor. I then try to pick it up but it is so small I lose it in the fibres of the carpet, I then search for it and find it - it is now an insect but I do not seem to be bothered by this transformation in the dream. I follow it a while then carefully pick it up, putting it back in the cage.

    14. The Family Gathering

      by , 06-20-2012 at 06:16 AM
      My extended family was together at my grandparents' house, which in waking life was sold shortly after their passing nearly ten years ago. The atmosphere was very casual, and felt as though it was Christmas. My grandparents were there, and their being present is a common dream sign, so as I stood in their kitchen, I became lucid.

      I can't remember very much about this dream, I think because my recall wasn't very good that night and my ad-hoc self-prompt to remember it only covered the dream very generally, which was much longer than my last lucid. I recall thinking that it had been ten minutes. I also don't think the dream was very vivid to begin with. It seemed to vague in retrospect that I questioned whether I had been truly lucid.

      After becoming lucid, all that I remember of the dream was communing with my imagined family and at one point gathering in close in conversation, all facing in one general direction as if posing for a picture that was not being taken. That is literally all the detail I can recall, other than the layout of the house, which I know by heart. I couldn't even tell you who else was there or what they said to me, only that they were family.

      I tried to recall some kind of information from the waking world after basking in the atmosphere for a while, thinking, "Now this is really nice." and the connection I made with the waking world destabilized the dream. All I can remember recalling from the waking world involves an isolated vision of a piece of paper with a coloured in cartoon drawing of a piece of bacon.

      I really don't know what to make of this one, to be honest.

      dream : comments : lucid
      20th of June, 2012

      Another mostly forgotten night. I woke up at one point and was super tempted to write down one of them, but it was so awesome I was sure I'd remember. Didn't!

      Anywhizzle:
      Something about Nooks being kidnapped so I lifted up the car she was being taken away in and put it on top of a van to stop it driving away. Probably should've realised that wasn't humanly possible.
      Then I was driving a car which turned into a really tall unicycle which I rode into a video store. I was looking around for movies but all I could see were the porn DVD's coz they were on the top shelves where my super-tall line of sight was.
