Catching More Kingly Implings (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm catching Kingly Implings from Runescape in real life, no surprise there, since I make a crap load of cash stuffing them into little jars and selling for extreme profits in the game.

The Kingly Implings looked a little weird, they basically looked like mini-floating Rockhopper penguins wearing some kind of red cardigan.

I recalled catching at least 5, and I think I had all of them in my arms because I didn't have any jars, but there were moments where I wasn't holding anything at all either, so I don't know how that worked out.

I kept going crazy during the process of getting 5 of them, and in the actual game, they're like floating money basically, like 380k-400k+ gp per impling. I was so freaking happy with myself with catching all of them that I was screaming at people with joy.

All of them just look at me weird, like I'm crazy.....loooool, guess I really am crazy for not doing a reality check there, too happy over imaginary things.

If all of these Kingly Implings were caught so easily, this meant they had to re-spawn at some location, so I quickly looked at as many short gaps and holes that they could be coming out of.

Do you Have a Microwave? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I have a plate with a pancake on it, and I go inside an Asian Restaurant to ask one of the employees,

"Do you have a microwave?"

One of them responds that they don't have one right now, but I can use the heating pan if I wanted to.

Not thinking about how clean the pan was, I put the pancake on the pan to let it sit and get heated up, and something told me I had to heat up the eggs as well, but they were somewhere else.

Clan Leader (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm doing some hot/cold gambling in Runescape....LOL.

Spoiler for What Hot and Cold Gambling Is:

What Hot/Cold means in a nutshell: Basically, certain flowers have a warm color (red, orange, yellow), which are hot, and cold (you know the drill).....yeah, so you bet a host on what flower it would be by giving them a certain amount of cash.

Then when they accepted the trade, you tell them what flower will pop up when they plant the seed, which shows up instantly. So if you said "Hot," and a hot type of flower shows up, you win double the money that you put into the bet.

And so on if you said the wrong flower, the host gets it, and also, if there's a rainbow flower (red, yellow, and blue), the host automatically wins unless you have some balls and predict that a ryb will show up. Usually, if you're right on that, you get 4-5 times the cash you put into the betting.

Easy way to make cash, IF you're hosting, but you can get lucky with betting as well, but it's always best to host, which is why people think it's a form of scamming, but if you find the right hosts that don't log out when you put a bet in, it CAN be addicting just like real life gambling.

Anyway, I believe I was hosting a Hot/Cold x 2 game (x 2 means double the money if you win).

Then I see a figure that looks like my clan leader in-game, and apparently, she gets one clan mate to tell and warn me about something. I ask them what happened, and I think one of our clan mates died in the game, and they need help getting their items back.

I saw a stack of gold that was melted before, pick it up, and some weird things happened.

I'm suddenly shifted to back to reality (like not focusing on a video game I mean), and I'm in some kind of museum. I follow this elderly couple, and the wife I'm presuming is putting a small piece of what seems to be a fossil on top of some empty monument.

I hear the sounds of the rocks that I'm walking on, and some of the edges as my shoes scrapes against them as well. The sound hand that type of rock and sand kind of thing to it.

I guess that same piece that was found completed the set.

That Method is Dead (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I can't remember much about this, I was walking to some area where the floor is brown, and the whole area is empty. I queried some random character on what happened, and they said that the method of killing some kind of creature for cash is dead.

I felt like this was a Runescape related dream too, hahahaha.

Jacks = Immortality? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

What I mean by jacks is the object from the Marbles and Jacks game, yeah, those kinds.

Apparently, you can twist them around, and they'll kill small animals and insects instantly, and it actually does when I see someone spin it.

Then I up some small stairs, and see a fairly overweight female twisting the jacks on her breasts (she's wearing a red shirt and pants).

I'm wondering why she's doing it, but apparently it's supposed to make you immortal or at least stronger than the human being.

Then I see someone who looks like Cory who was in the tennis team I was part of in High School testing out this theory by letting his brother hit him with a mini green chalkboard very hard.

Umm...okay.

I go down to some other small set of stairs outside, and some guy was talking about how he can use human toasters.

I laugh and think it's absurd, but I don't tell him anything.

Foreward
I have only recently, started recording my dreams, thus far it has only been approximately three weeks. I immediately started recalling at least three dreams per night once I made the conscious choice to do so. I haven't practiced any lucidity techniques; though lucidity is, in part, my primary goal; I have found the process very rewarding and entertaining so far. My dreams are often fantastical or in settings that would seem oddly constructed, or vast and otherworldly, and I have found it odd that it would not be enough for me to realize I was dreaming. I am certain of a couple lucid dreams over the years, but if they truly were while I was aware I was dreaming I always acted them out; only once or twice making brief use of fact I was actually dreaming.

I believe this dream was in the first cycle of REM sleep as it was short and the time in the night would support this.

The Dream

I opened my eyes...
I was kneeling inside a dim room, in the far left corner facing forwards. The floors were wooden and there was a large rectangular mirror affixed to the wall in front of me, the mirror just off to my right hand side, it's base sitting roughly half way up the wall. I felt safe, familiar... yet not.
Still kneeling where I had came to, I looked in the dire the mirror and saw my father's reflection. He looked back at me, then it occurred to me I was alone in the room. It was a ghost staring back at me.
But then I realized my father was still alive this couldn't be, and that is when the feeling of panic washed over me.
Simultaneously it occurred to me I was dreaming, but the panic had set in and I could feel my body weakening and the world was growing dark around me. I had felt this feeling before... when I was only a child... I was about to pass out... my body began to fall forwards and the world grew darker still but I was now calm; I was going to hit the wall and there was nothing I could do.
I waited for the impact of my head against the wall, but it never came. Enshrouded and cradled by the darkness I had passed through the wall and awoken lying in my bed staring at the ceiling.

The ceiling above me was the stars, the universe, and I wanted to see it all.
My body started lifting off the bed, up into the ceiling of stars after which I willed myself fast through the cosmos. After, what was probably only a few seconds of travel I decided I wanted to go back to Earth; and experience this amazing feeling of lucidity there. I looked back towards Earth, it was nowhere to be seen; but I knew the direction and slowly my body turned around and started travelling back towards Earth.

This is when I truly awoke in reality, having glimpsed if only for a moment something extraordinary.

This morning's dream was quite detailed, and although part of the dream after the first one has been blocked out, many scenes still remain intact. A few scenes become slightly graphic

There was a man lying on the ground. The room was dark, with scenes of red curtains, and possibly tables and gold-framed portraits strewn throughout. Suddenly, another man walks in and starts shooting pistol rounds at him. I counted about 20 rounds, or more than 100 shots fired. The pretext for this terrible scene, I do not remember.

Time to report this massacre to someone close-by. Number of killed: 1. Could that really aptly describe the horror to the full extent?

West Java, Indonesia

Somewhere, a strong earthquake jolted the region, affecting a rural area outside the city of Jakarta. There was a volcanic eruption that turned the sky red around the world. Somewhere, possibly in Japan, another volcanic eruption changed the character of the sky.

One tribe in Java offended another. For some reason, a war began, and tanks started rolling into the fields. Many were killed, and women and children were seen hiding in their tents, as bombs exploded around them. The facade said this was Kota Kinabalu. But that's in Malaysia, on the island of Borneo.

What did they even fight over?

Soon, a ceasefire was declared, as the tribes came to terms with the conflict. Nobody made a move for days, then days turned into weeks, and weeks months. A pile of dust still lay unforbidden.

China, 1989

There was some Western company being sent in, a camera attached to the back of a fruit fly, to send into the nasal passages of a person. Inside, there were a series of rooms, four floors, and a conference meeting in one. Not much going on anywhere, but suddenly a stampede of people rushed toward the pool. A British filmmaker joined me. The crazy woman, as she was called, Caucasian and dark brown hair, swam all the way to the opposite shore at an impossible speed, and took a basket, filling it quickly with water. It formed a Canada goose shape, which then rose on top the water in the form of a bubble, which burst, and people laughed.

I highly recommend this book, I wrote. It brings an air of humanity fo 1980's and 90's Asia, including the events in Indonesia and Tiananmen Square, even to the police and soldiers who instigated the massacre in various places.

I woke up for the second time now, this time about 40 minutes before I had set my alarm to ring. Perhaps this was because I had a lot of work.

My hiatus lasted a lot longer than planned. After the original break, I decided to try making a tulpa. I've since given up on it, so I'm going to try to focus more attention on dreaming.
_____

I am In my kitchen, Freeza from dragon ball Z is there, along with burter and a sayan cronie that I don't remember or don't recognize. I'm trying to bide time while I figure out a way to kill him and his allies in one swoop before they realize what is going on. I know they are incredibly powerful and I wouldn't be able to take them in a fight, even one on one. after a bit of time, I think about a sword. but I'm not sure if a sword can cut them. I try to ask in a discreet way how a sword could cut off a sayan's tail, I don't get an answer or they don't hear me. I go upstairs and fetch a sword from the corner of my room.

I debate charging in and trying to get freeza first, but there is a table in the way, and I wouldn't be able to get to him in time, plus I would probably be finished off by the other two even if I did succeed. I would need to finish them in one swing.

I wake up as I'm considering my options.

Had two dreams tonight, but I was too tired to write them down, and my headache was killing me, which means I forgot the first one.

I was in my bed sleeping, when my phone rang. I answered it, and it went on camera-to-camera mode. On the other end, I saw a bunch of my classmates and few from my parallel class looking at the camera. Some small-talk occurred between us, and the guy who made the call tells me to turn around. I tell him I can't, because I'm in my bed.
"Just look behind you" he says. I tell him:
"There's nothing behind me. If I turn around I will suffocate in my pillow". Another guy, Peter, then comes on and says that Communication is boring. I ask him why, but I don't remember if I got a response.
The dream changes scenario to my garden terrace. Peter is there, as well as a couple randoms which I figure are my classmates. There is a big cauldron with some green goo in it. Peter is playing around with it. We go into my father's workshop. Green goo gets spilled over Peter. We look up and see the cauldron on one of the horizontal pillars keeping the roof up.
"How the hell did that get up there, who placed it there?!".

My (non-lucid) dream was very confusing and busy-like. I'm not even sure how it started. I know I fell asleep telling myself that I wanted to dream about my brother, to go on an adventure of some sort.
The parts I remember is that he told me that he needed to go to the hospital for surgery. He wouldn't tell me what the surgery was for or anything. He walked very slowly, as if his feet were bothering him badly. He kept telling me that after surgery, he would feel better, but he wouldn't tell me anything more about it. So, we sat in the waiting room. This isn't some normal procedure, because it was almost like waiting in the ER for medical attention. There were several other people.
The people there were making me nervous, and so I told my brother I would be back shortly. I exit the hospital, and that's all I remember about that first part.
Then, I dream that I'm in this community room at a park trying to set up for a class. It was a class for my mother-in-law and all the other veterans that live in her apartment flat. Only a couple of people come to the class, and the the teacher I was assiting was a very reserved and austere man. My mother in law tells me that school was out for the summer and so most of the others (apartment neighbors) were off doing whatever else they wanted to do.
My dream seemed to drift back into the first part (or first dream??), and I was back at the hospital with my brother. I went to sit by him for a few minutes, when they called his name up. At this point, I am not allowed to go back with him, as it's a surgery. So while he went to surgery, I decided to go visit my mom, who was currently a patient at the same hospital. I wander up this tall staircase (no elevator for some reason or another), and I end up stuck, looking for her room. I forgot which room she was, or if she was really even at that hospital. I couldn't bring myself to ask a nurse for help, for some reason. And so I wandered the halls for what seemed like two hours before I went back to that waiting room, where I could expect my brother out. I went to the reception area and ask on his status, and they tell me that he is in the recovery room and would be there for a while yet.
At this point, I decided to find myself a restroom. When I get to the toilet, I sit down and begin to tinkle... and for some reason I had a hard time doing it, when I realize... I woke myself up and right then because I almost wetted the bed! So here I am, writing this down.

I know that this dream(s) makes no sense at all to anyone, and barely myself, but I know why I have dreamed it. I have been worried about my brother (twin brother to be precise) and his alcoholism. It has caused a strain on our relationship for some time now. We got into an argument just shortly after our 26th birthday. We have since talked and he stopped drinking for a couple of weeks, and now he is back on the bottle. Last night, we chatted and he basically told me that he feels his life has no purpose, and he secretly hopes that one night, his alcoholism kills him. While trying to work his situation out, he complains about how his feet and mouth hurt a lot, and how he needs to get the last few teeth pulled so he can heal up for his new dentures.
I probably dreamed about visiting my mother at the hospital, because we also talked about my mother last night. She was always in and out of the hospital a lot of my life, and she has since passed away-at the hospital, so I think that my mind wished I could go see her and since she passed at the hospital, that's where I could go to see her again.
As for the dream about a community room and preparing for a class for my mother in law.. I have no clue. Sometimes my dreams drive me insane when they are all jumbled up so badly!

I realize I'm having a FA.
I leave my house through my balcony, flying like I usually do, I take a right and as I reach the block's corner I see a train coming at full speed on the street, I was flying low so it would hit me, I fly up and dodge it, as it passes below me I look back at it and the train is now a bus, it turns and I notice the bus is being driven by a guy on a bike that has the bus connected by a string! I think that's funny and try to fly up the bus to stand there and "enjoy the ride", as soon as I start chasing it the guy on the bike looks back in shock and speeds up, I loose sight of him as he passes behind a truck and when I see him again it's just the guy on the bike without a bus.

I notice I'm in a park now, I don't recognize it, so I decide to fly around, shortly after I bump into some old man that pokes me as I fly by him.

I "wake up" into a FA.

As I get up of bed a shadow figure appears, I think the figure looks like a woman, long dark hair, she pushes me back into bad and grabs me from the ankles, I feel scared and as I try to talk to it I wake up... into another FA.

Again as I try to get up of bed, this time it seems like a bulkier one, a man I assumed. I manage to let my fear go away for a little bit and ask him "Who are you?" and he replies "What have you done?", as he vanishes the room gets lighter but I wake up into another FA.

The female shadow appears again and grabs me just like before, but this time another shadow appears, it's a little one, a kid I think, she crawls up on my bed and lays down by my side, pokes me, I feel a lot of fear at this point, I look at this shadow and all I see is a weird grin, which scares me shitless as I wake up.



notes-
While scary as fuck, this was a very interesting experience, I was able to make one go away by calming myself, and thanks to this experience I learn some things about calming myself.

I decided to dream journal as soon as I wake up for the first time and this is the outcome:

I found some sort of weird fly, I decided to give it an egg and it was starting to change. I ended u in a map on modern warfare 3 with this creature which had evolved into a dragonfly but it was literally a dragon with wings, I got really excited and kept saying I created a dragon, it was flying around and it landed on my shoulder and I could feel it like it was actually there, *This is the first time I can remember feeling something in my dream*. So I was letting it fly around for a bit when some people started to walk by, there was this girl from my school and we kind of caught eachothers glance like we had fallen in love, I could feel the emotion too. I was trying to hide the dragon fly so they wouldnt see as I thought they might want to kill it, and I thought to myself that I have created a dragon and that in about 20 years time it would have fully grown into a proper dragon, I was thinking that the dragon thought I was its parent as I formed it. This girl walked by and I turned were she was walking and there was this woman who said something but I can't remember and then the dream ended.

So starts out I already know its a Zombie apocalypse and I'm kinda rogue'in it out around a city.(First part of dream is kinda fuzzy :S) I meet a girl and a guy and we set off exploring places together. This girl tickles me fancy and I feel really protective of her throughout the dream. We go to my cousins place to see if there is any survivors. We get there and walk down some hall when my zombie cousins start busting through doors and walls! We have sharp crowbars and hockey sticks(not the best weapon selection) and are beating down and impaling zombies before they get to us. After ive killed almost half my family, we go outside and see more zombies. A car drives by with two guy in it and they start acting like zombies driving the car(although their clearly not zombies) So we start acting like zombies too, to not draw any attention, but apparently my acting skills are lacking and they start chasing after us. I fall down and almost get bittin when my super hot, fancy ticklin girl, kicks the shit out of the zombie. I thank her with a makeout sesh and we go back into the city to the library to research up on zombies. We find nothing but more zombies there and leave the building, only to discover I left my cell phone and coat in there, so I decide to be heroic and go get it on my own. The dream goes slow mo as I dodge zombies to retrieve my coat and once I successfully do that I return outside to be aplouded by my comrades. I start walking like a d bag and accidentally step on an open zombies mouth, who bites my foot clean through my shoe. I pry it off and immediatly start panicking cause I know I only have a few hours left before I turn. I decide to ask my mom for money so I can get a antidote from some crazy guy.I see her busking with popcorn for money and she gives me a twenty after much begging. We head off to get the antidote when my mom wakes me up (irl) to go fishing....DAMN IT! did I survive?!?!?!

I was in a junkyard type landscape and it was dark out with some fires spread around the place, I remember hearing someone on an ATV coming, then I saw them, I didn't see a dream sign I just knew I was dreaming. So to get away, I willed myself to fly and I did, taking off like superman. Just as I started to feel the wind in my face, everything went black as the dream was ending, and I remembered a way of prolonging control but by that point the blackness I saw was the backs of my eyelids which ended up opening.

Perfect dream. Although incredibly intense.

We had just figured out it was the end of the world. In 1 and a half days (coz we found out ~half way through the day) the world would end.
No one seemed to know how it would end. And I'm not sure how we found out it would happen either.

There, fortunately, were two very rare phenomenon in the two days preceding. One was aurora as the sun set. I was in some beach area to get a nice view, pacing around trying to think of and look for a suitable hill, as the sun was setting. My view of it was blocked almost every hill and raised area I tried.
I spotted from the hill, a place down past some trees that looked awesome, and just as I was gonna bolt down there, I saw my sister and told her I'd found an awesome spot and we ran.

Something happened here, got way off track when dream story took a turn, but I can't remember it, point is we didn't see the aurora....

In a later dream I am around the area where I work IRL, got a good view of the second rare phenomenon, on top of the shop. But clouds have come rolling in and cover the entire sky. "There's no way we're gonna see it", I think to myself. I should be extremely upset, but I'm not.
I start thinking about what may happen when the world ends. It's only half a day away at most, it's the evening as far as I can tell. (This is the day after the previous dream's day)

The next several hours are filled with random conversations with people and things I can't remember.
But the time has come and we are on the roof of the shop, turns out the clouds were the phenomenon, they have started twisting around and a just a big, grey vortex consuming our entire field of view. I don't know where is up or down, the roof we're standing on is not a roof of a building, it's "isolated", and so we are from the rest of the world, even though the entire world is experiencing the same thing, I know it, still we are consumed by the clouds. It's extremely disorienting, but somehow keeps me completely focused on what is happening. It's loud, winds are at least a hundred km/h but we're planted firmly on the concrete. My mum decides to jump in.

There have been small holes forming in the cloud, one by one they jump in. I decide I must do the same, and say goodbye and think about my world as I plunge through.... whatever this was, and in to another.


Another world does exist, but it's filled with monsters of all kinds, giant slugs to zombies, and many, many people who have been corrupted by this horror.

I went to bed late and set an alarm to wake me up after about five hours and a half. I wrote down notes for two of the dreams when I woke up, but forgot what happened in the other two.

#1 I was sitting in a room I don't recognize, with a spliff in my hand. I lit it on and inhaled. I get an overwhelming feeling in my whole body, like the smoke is running through my blood. The feeling was partly comfortable and partly uncomfortable. I fall asleep with the spliff in my hand. When I wake up, half of it has been burned down. I light it up and try again. Note, I have never tried marijuana.

#2 I'm on a field by my own. It's a beach full of wet sand, with boats and small ships in the waterline, and a half-torn down house. I have been placed in a match. Me against five enemies. Instead of focusing on getting my enemies killed, I mess around with a boat, covered behind a rusty stranded ship. I'm trying to drive the boat on top of a jeep. The two vehicles function like in Battlefield 3. I get a vision of a minimap. On the minimap I can see all the five enemies being spotted, all of them around me, on the ships surrounding me. I see one of the enemies and proceed to shoot him. I fire an RPG at the next enemy. For the third, three teammates have come in to help. We crawl up a ladder, and see the enemy looking the other way, not paying attention to us.

I keep dreaming about this blond girl from work who's WAAY too immature for my taste. but in these dreams she keeps trying to get closer to me. she was grabbing me by the arm in this one.

yesterday morning. frags.

A bunch of people at a party trying to get me to do shit. fuck off.

Last night, I had my first lucid dream as an adult. I was on a hiking trail in one of the prairies of my home province, crossing a newish, unpainted wooden bridge across a small stream, alone. Other than the bridge and the stream behind me, the only feature of the landscape was a field of the tall, dry grass common in Alberta, stretching as far in front of me as I could see. It was a very sunny day with the very pale blue sky we have around here, though I can't recall whether there were any clouds. I was in a generally good mood, because of some kind of interaction with a DC earlier in the dream that I can't remember, but I was a bit embarrassed because I was out walking in my socks. Not having shoes is one of my dream signs, and a part of me recognized this. I was next to lucid at this point. I decided to experiment, and attempted to generate shoes onto my feet. I succeeded, though the shoes only remained for a few seconds. The transition is a little fuzzy. I can recall doing a fingerpalm RC last night, and it was either at this point, or in another dream. In any case, I realized fully that I was dreaming, and thought to myself, "Isn't something supposed to happen now? Oh! That's right! I become lucid!" At this point I can remember feeling a rush of awareness of my environment. Everything seemed far more vivid, and I decided to test my newfound lucidity. I picked up and flew. I was every close to the ground for a second or so, and then began to fly directly upward beyond my control, though my body was still parallel to the ground. I realized that the dream was destabilizing and I decided to let it, simply wanting to get this first experience under my belt. I made I mental note to remember what had happened, and the dream ended.
