Dream One: I'm standing in a field at night. I even had the thought in dream that this field looked like Hyrule (TLoZ:OoT) with it's dirt paths and patchy grass, and a giant full moon looming over head. I turn around and look behind me, and there's a girl walking towards me. She reminds me of one of the neighborhood kids, only thinner and older. I say hey, and ask her what she's doing in a field in the middle of the night, never bothering to question myself. She tells me she's going to "spotify" I have no clue what that is, so I ask her, and she tells me that if you go into this field at night, you'll be spotted and disappear. This sounds creepy, and i don't want to disappear, but I realize this chic is depressed. I mean she looked depressed when I first saw her, all quiet and looking at the floor and refusing to make eye contact. Now that I know she wants to disappear I KNOW she's depressed and suicidally so. I ask her where her house is, I think I'm going to be able to get her to walk me to her house, and then tell her parents so she doesn't really disappear. She tells me her house is up the hill and points, no shit, towards a hill that looks like Lon Lon Ranch, ha ha. Then she refuses to walk me there because she says she wants to stay and disappear. Before i can argue with her, I hear a noise, and look behind me, away from the ranch. There are two more girls walking towards us from across the field. They're talking to each other, so I think this was more like a prank or a dare for them than wanting to die. They're still a good hundred feet away when a dark shadow sorta of triangular shaped like a bird swooping in on it's prey, but HUGE like the size of a whale in the sky or bigger flies between us. It swoops down towards the two girls, and I hear them scream and I turn and RUN. The girl who wants to die isn't with me, but I'm not hero enough in this dream to go back and try to drag her and get killed myself. I'm running towards her house, and as I run I hear the two girls screaming, "No! We didn't really want to die! We changed our minds!" but I don't turn around because I can hear it crashing to the ground behind me swopping up the third girl, and I know if I don't hurry it'll get me too! I reach the house, and then knock on the door. I'm screaming, "Please open the door! Hurry!" and a lady opens the door. She looks confused, and asks me if I'm there for the party and if I'm a friend of her daughters. I tell her I'm just lost in the field and need to call my parents, I don't know her daughter. She tells me that's too bad, they're throwing a surprise party for her because she's been so down lately, but she hasn't come home yet. Oh... that's her daughter, I don't want to tell her that she just died and be the bearer of bad news. Then the front door opens, and it's the daughter. I'm trying to figure out how she survived, and I notice there's even blood on her clothes, but no one seems to notice. The woman smiles and says "SURPRISE! Enjoy your party hun, I need to get the phone for this girl real quick!" then she mom walks through an archway and it's just me and the girl and a dog in the living room. The dog starts barking, but I can't tell if it's barking at her or me because it's barking in both directions. Then the girl turns and starts barking and growling at me. Freaked out, I run out the front door and everything goes black. I "wake up" in a class room full of teens. I think I've zoned out for a minute, but no one seems to have noticed. There's a pretty black girl beside me, but she looks at me and her pupils in her eyes are like slits, not human eyes. It freaks me out and I jump back. The teacher yells at both of us thinking we were talking, but the girl argues with her that we weren't talking. The teacher slams a ruler down on the girls desk and tells her not to argue with her. Then the teacher turns away. The girl jumps up, with her feet in the chair, in a crouched position like she's going to attack the teacher's back, but she slowly lowers her legs and sits back down like she's changed her mind. A couple of girls behind us are giggling and whispering way too loudly, "Did you see that? She was about to attack teach! she has been so weird lately. What is her problem?" Then the bell rings and the class starts filing out of the classroom. The teacher leaves too, but a couple of students stay, a boy with sandy blond hair and a girl with like bleach blond hair. The creepy eyed girl leaves the class room practically stalking she's so pissed off. Then I stand up to leave, and the guy walks up to me and puts his hand on the front of my shoulder and stops me, "Where you going Pave?" at first I think he called me Paige, but then I am sure I heard that V and wondered what kind of a name Pave was? I shrug his hand off my shoulder and continue towards the door and tell him I'm not interested in hanging out in the classroom. The girl gets up and also calls me Pave, then tells me that whether I'm interested or not, this concerns me. I'm one of them, even if I don't want to be. The door opens an another guy, this one really tall with light brown hair, and the creepy eyes girl from before walk in. The new guy says to use the key, and the blonde girl says ok. I stop them, "Wait? What key? What are you guys doing?" The guy says he's opening communication so the harvesters can collect their harvest. I'm confused, so then the girl says, "We've got a breeding facility hidden in the wilderness where we've been breeding slaves to send into space." I say that's illegal, and she says the only thing illegal about is it that they weren't born in captivity in space. Then she says they were born in captivity on earth, so she's pretty sure she can get around it if there's an investigation. Then I remember the girl who wanted to "spottify" and I realize that something probably killed the other two girls, then took over her body and that THING was probably the investigators. I tell the other kids that there's something on this planet inhabiting a human body and it's probably the investigator, and if so this is their fault. They're not concerned, they just ignore me and more a poster that's on the wall. Behind it is a keyhole, and when they insert the key... I wake up, lol. I was actually pretty freaked out when I woke up in the dark. My husband was getting up for work at that point, and I was kind of wishing he'd sleep in so I could fall back asleep and not be alone, ha ha.

Dream Two: I get on facebook, and I find that my mom has set up a facebook event, but the event is to fix up the house I'm living in. The wording is something like, "Hey everyone! As you know, my daughter and her husband have moved in with my mom last year to help fix her house because it's falling apart. Unfortunately, it's only a two bedroom house so they have three beds set up in one room! I wanted to try to get a bunch of people together to go over there and help them fix things up!" I'm in shock that several people I don't know have already joined the event, and I'm feeling like she makes it sound like a charity case or something. I'm embarrassed, and mad, so I call her up. She says she just wanted to help, but I try to explain to her that it's not just a labor issue, it's a money issue as well. I try to explain to her that the $500 a month we're setting back goes quickly when your having to replace all the pipes, replace the floor in the bathroom because one of the old pipes busted, replace the posts on the porch because they were rusted completely through, and all the little repairs like the dishwasher, over, laundry machine, and everything else that's gone wrong since we moved in. I try to tell her we still need $3000 to replace the roof before we can even think about finishing off the basement, and it's not going to help if she gets a bunch of people over here with nothing to do, so she needs to just cancel the event. But then When I get on facebook again, a church group has joined too, and they're talking about praying for our situation. (funny, just as I typed that line, the phone rang and it was my grandma's church, haha) I'm so embarrassed at that point, that I post on the page "Thank you all for your concern, but we're fine and don't want help!" I think the dream continued beyond this, but I can't remember the way ended. I think at some point I had to go to the church and tell them no, but then they tried to rope us into Sunday school classes or something. The only reason I can remember that part is because their Sunday school materials had Manga like comics for their children's illustrations to make them more interesting. It was sunny because all the characters looked like the ones in bleach, but they had different names and they weren't soul reapers, they were "soul saviors" and they led people to god or something corny like that.

Dream Three: I'm in a parking lot, and it's raining in the evening time. So it's overcast and almost dark, but not quite. There are two men standing in the middle of the parking lot looking like they're about to have an old western show down. Upon closer inspection, one's a cop and one's just a normal guy, so I assume he's a robber or something. I walk towards the store, but I'm a couple aisle over so they don't notice me. When I get to the store, I realize that a bunch of people are just standing around outside the store watching this confrontation between the robber and the cop. One guy even send his wife inside to buy a tent so they don't get wet in the rain. I walk to the right of the store, then back to the left, listening to people I pass buy, trying to figure out what's going on. Then, suddenly I think to myself, "I remember this dream!" (in fact, I did NOT remember this dream, and I remained only semi lucid) I start telling myself what's going to happen in the dream. I tell myself that my aunt is inside buying a tent as well, then I see my aunt. I tell myself that I need to jump out into the showdown, because I know the attacker. I step up, and the cop tells me to get away... I realize he's an exboyfriend of mine who actually is a cop now. I ignore him, he was always an ass anyways. Then I tell myself, the attackers going to threaten to blow up walmart, but it's just a ploy, no one will really be hurt. So the attacker suddenly looks like Rock Lee from Naruto, only he's wearing a cape and a mask like Robin from batman. He says he's going to blow the place up, then shoots some sort of white light from his hands that hits the store and causes some dust and rubble and a 3 foot circular hole, but doesn't blow it up. Then I say outloud that he's going to try to inhabit my body, and he throws white light out of his body into mine, and then his body gets a vacant look in it's eyes, and walks away and I feel dizzy and disoriented. I fall to the ground, and I can hear a guys voice telling me to lay down and rest, that K is on his way. But as I'm laying there with my eyes closed seeing only darkness, I feel someone above me. Thinking it's just K I lay there like a good girl, but then the person over me leans down and kisses me quickly, then starts licking my mouth like a dog. I shake my head and push the person away. I look up and it's the stupid ex-boyfriend cop. I yell at him, "what are you doing?! Your not supposed to help me, K is supposed to rescue me!" then I wake up. I'm not sure if I should call that a lucid or not. On one hand, I actually said to myself it's a dream, and told myself everything that was going to happen, but on the other hand I never got that "It's a dream! I can do whatever I want! Wahoo!" feeling. It's like I only halfway knew it was a dream, enough to know I controlled what happened, but not enough to actually want to change the events. Still, my end goal in lucids is almost always, K, and I was going for that in the dream, so maybe it's a lucid? I don't know! lol

Dream Four: I'm sitting on a couch with my head laid back like I was going to sleep on it. I straighten my head back up, and my husband is talking to me from across the room. The person beside me is the neighbors kid. He's all excited, and it turns out we got some sort of video game system in the mail. I'm supposed to be opening the box and setting it up so they can play. I start taking stuff out of the box. The console has a sticker that says free 30 day trial on it. Then there's a paper that says we can keep the system after 30 days for just $99. Inside the box there is all kinds of crap though, There are two Christmas tree ornaments, a flash light, and a keychain light. There's also some green thing the size of a baseball that I have no clue what it is. I hold it up to my husband, and he says it's a planter, then proceeds to magically unfold these parts of it and it turns into a plants stand, complete with a little plant in it, and it's like ten times it's normal size. I am trying to figure out what to do with the thing, and end up breaking it, but then I ghetto rig it so it sits on three legs instead of four. My husband tells me I need to put it in the entrance way, and I walk to the front door to discover it's a little enclosed area, like a mud room, with a cute rug and all these pretty flowers. I'm impressed, and wonder where all this came from! On my way back to the living room, I see my daughter and another little girl sitting on a kid sized couch watching a little TV leaning on each other like they're drifting off to sleep. I think to myself they're so cute, like two little dolls leaning on each other to stay upright! Then I start feeling dizzy and disoriented and I fall tot he ground and everything goes black. When I open I my eyes, I'm actually waking up. Up until the last couple of weeks I've never had that disoriented feeling feeling when a dream ends, but it seems lately it's happening a lot!

Dream ??? (Fragment) : I can't remember what order this fragment fell into, and almost left it out, but it's worth remembering so it's worth writing right? lol. The whole fragment just consisted of me hearing the neighbors peacock in a really tall grassy field and trying to follow the sound to find it. But it kept moving! at one point I wondered if there was more than just one loose.

I was in a school environment (I think college, but in a building spatially resembling my old junior high school) time leaping. I was a girl, too. Someone like Veronica Mars, or no, maybe Sabrina the teenage witch from the show? No, only for the latter part of the dream was I her. For the former part, I was myself, and there was no transition. Yes, I was even myself to a boring extent. There were some unusual things going on, and I wanted to investigate them, but I had to go to class and take care of some obligations. However, I had the sense--perhaps my time leaping ability arose within the narrative due to this sense--that I would be able to investigate them retroactively after I'd finish my obligations. I went to class and had some kind of group activity, or else interacted with people in a group. They somehow seemed to not take a liking to me due to the way that I interacted with them, in a way that probably resembled my usual cold waking self. Yet they feigned not having that matter and then began to behave suspiciously, which I picked up on and became wary of malicious acts from them. They gave me some food which I politely refused, and then dropped some strange object on my desk before walking away, which I put back on their desk with the planned excuse of not having enough room to store it on my desk due to my papers. I then had to leave my desk, so I realized that I needed to take with my my backpack and some other things to keep them safe. I thought that it was unfortunate I might be indirectly letting them know that I suspected my things wouldn't be safe if left behind, but the reality was that I couldn't afford to leave them behind because they were irreplaceable possessions, like a laptop and maybe papers. After walking away, I went to a remote area and did something related to investigation. I think that I might have briefly visited a room that was not my business to visit while feigning that I belonged there. I also have the impression that there were some rooms which were locked and off limits but which I may have had the key for which allowed me to have private space for operations, as well as rooms which people thought were locked but which were actually accessible. At some point I quickly reached a dead end, or maybe some kind of danger, and decided that now was the best time to time leap. I time leapt back to the beginning of the day and this time decided to spend the day investigating the strange operations within the school. It seemed there was something political, something involving reporters, some event or meeting, that was taking place in adjoined rooms that perhaps amounted to a small wing of the school. It was around this point that I somehow became "aware" in the dream that these events were very important for me to address and that others would be carefully watching me and kill me if they discovered my interference. At some point, I retreated to an area that I considered a safe area, in order to do something related to investigation that didn't involve being in the area of investigation. It was an area resembling my room and its adjoining room. Because I thought that I might be followed and have to fake out my pursuer into thinking I wasn't there, I muttered a quick spell that would allow me to instantly transport myself into a half-open sack-like velvet furnishing upon my bed in the main room that I would be able to hide myself in as if asleep, then I went into the adjoining room and hid there.

#Dream 1
I'm at home and I have to babysit my little cousin. Everything is going well until he nears a vase and wants to push it down. I prevent him from doing that and he tries to climb a curtain. I stop him and he asks me why I'm not blind. A bit perplexed I ask why I should be blind I'm preventing him from danger after all. He doesn't seem to hear this and says that he will make me blind. A bit scary (and ridiculous if you think about it), but he doesn't do anything and goes to the terrace door to see the kid. I open it and call for the cat and she comes. My little cousin fondles her and I wake up.


#Dream 2
Something about my friend.

For one or other reason, I'm dreaming a lot that I'm in France. Most of the time there's nothing even there to state that it's France, I just seem to "know" it -is- France.
During my 1.5h nap from 15min ago, I dreamed some shit about doing some stuff with my classmates, but I can't remember any detail.

Then I suddenly stood in a system of tunnels, the walls are orange to reddish. I went to the toilet and took a piss.
Back in another hall, there was a table with a big metal pot of soup, with some bowls and a ladle.
A bunch of kids came into the hall and I let them take a portion first. They're followed by two adults: one man and one woman.
I let them too serve themselves first. The woman makes a comment about my combat boots in French.

I reply her, in French, that they come in handy, even undergrounds, for safety, meaning that they can be used for protection.
She nods.
I also tell her they're from 1984.
She says something I can't really remember. I wake up.

This night was rather bizarre. I spent a lot of the night smoking some really strong weed so I unfortunately don't remember as much of it as I would have liked to, but frankly I'm amazed I remember anything at all. Not long before going to bed I took a capsule of valerian root and was smoking an herbal blend that R had put together. It contained calea zacatechichi, blue lotus, wild dagga, baybean, and skullcap. I blame that blend for... this.

#1 - Wonderful [Non-Lucid]

There was a lot leading up to the end of this dream that I don't remember, but it started out in a large school/fortress somewhere in the middle of a massive mountain range. There were lots of buildings on giant stone platforms that were floating in the sky, with tiny wooden bridges connecting them all. I can't remember exactly how the dream progressed to this next part, but I was controlling a young Link (like in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time) in third-person perspective like in a game, but I still perceived it as if it was happening to me in first-person. And I was fighting another young Link, like literally he was an exact copy. We were swinging around on strings like Spider-Man and we were just going back and forth sort of in opposing figure eight patterns where we would fight once we approached each other at the center until we got too far away from each other again, and I remember knowing that we each had 2000 life points. I'm not sure what the strings were connected to as they went up above my vision, but we were floating just off of one of the stone platforms with a building on it, but too far away to just land on it again, and we were circling a giant open mouth a good distance below us, but large enough that it still took up a good amount of space in my vision. My perspective was oriented downwards so that I could always see the mouth. Essentially, what we were doing when we fought was throwing bombs and boomerangs at each other, attempting to make the other fall off of their string and into the giant mouth where they would be eaten. It was extremely nerve-wracking the entire time, and I could never seem to land a hit on the little asshole, so eventually I swung my string enough to jump down but miss the mouth and fall waaaaay down on to the ground below it, where I landed in my pool at my house. This part was extremely confusing, but I remember "knowing" that what just happened was a dream (more like random logic that just happened to include that rather than actually being lucid) and thinking to myself that I must be out of the dream now, and there was sort of a fade out effect on my environment, though it just faded into itself, which is hard to describe but was very noticeable at the time. After that I woke up.

#2 - Shark Attack [Non-Lucid]

There was some long high school dream leading up to this, I remember the guy AB who keeps appearing in my dreams recently being there, but that's about it. The part of the dream I do remember was all in third-person. The whole family from American Dad! was sitting at the end of a laundry shoot-like slide, with their feet hanging over the edge, overlooking some large pool of water. There was something said about a shark, and then I got a view of a gigantic shark sliding down the shoot coming toward them with its mouth open. The family screamed and Stan went up and grabbed the shark and was sliding down with it, and he said something about how it's not allowed to change it's mouth size. The whole family ended up falling into the water with the shark, and while they were underwater I got Stan's perspective. An old man who was essentially a mix of a Chinese martial artist and Jar Jar Binks from episode one of Star Wars (that's honestly the best way I can describe it) floated up to Stan and said "I require your assistance...." I'm pretty sure that man was somewhere in the dream before too, but it's hard to remember now. After that I was woken up by R.

I'm traveling around with the Doctor. I remember him helping Roosevelt by telling him not to do something, then he meets up with him again when he's old and they reminisce. There's this kid that's been traveling with us. Instead of going to school like normal, he's been traveling around time and space. We talk to his mom about it, and we tell her that he's gonna need to stop.

We walk outside of this convenience store, and I see something weird flying in the air. I point it out to the Doctor and ask what it is.

"That's a pterodactyl."

"Yes, but why is it here?"

"Oh."

He tells me to go back in the convenience store and grab the cardboard box (which we apparently used to make a door into the TARDIS). I dropped the part that had the special symbol written on it (which looked like a really crappy bold-faced の) but I picked it up again. I left a bunch of the boxes we stacked around the door. I see a blue T-Rex with a tadpole tail sticking out of the back of its head and ask the Doctor what it is.

"Oh, that? That's just a...Tadpole T-Rex...
Yeah, we should get going"

"Yeah..."

When we climb in, the TARDIS is really tiny and we ask the Doctor what's wrong. He says that the amount of boxes around the door increases the size. He says his normally uses a very compact version because it uses less energy.

Note: I am taking an extended break from dreaming for personal reasons. I'm still writing down my dreams, just not actively recalling or becoming lucid. I should be back in full at or around June 2nd.

Persona 3: I am fighting nyx as the main character from persona 3 (the guy with the blue hair) there are party members from persona 3 and 4 alongside me. Our healer is badly burned from a fire attack, me and another member attempt to heal her with our own healing abilities so she can continue, she is nearly dead and burnt to a crisp.

I wake up and fall asleep again

Skyrim: I am running around in a town, I loot a couple of dead bodies just lying around, nothing really interesting.

-timeskip-

I am in some ruins, still in skyrim. as I enter, there is a desk with some old documents. I skim them, nothing really interesting, from the few words I read. one document clearly said "Dovakin" something about the dragonborn, but it fails to capture my interest.

I continue onward, down the dark, empty corridor. I see a side room and look in, there is a dragon alter (where the dovakin learns shouts). I walk up to it, the energy begins to flow, but I see two blips on my enemy radar. (yes, enemy radar in a fantasy game, I don't really get it either, but they have it in Skyrim ) I charge out, weapons drawn, not wanting to be caught by surprise while learning the shout, down the hallway I was originally going down. The enemies are dragon priest litches, two of them, but each some distance apart, so I can take them on one at a time. they are jet black, but they have a white outline, so I can see them easily against the black room. I destroy one after a brief, but difficult struggle, then wake up.

i was i a garden room playing a rpgmmo on the computer with this boy i didnt know but i guess he was my friend. So my mom comes in and says your friend is wanting you to come to in think georgia for some gift then i woke up.

this dream was kind of crazy but funny in its own sort of way

I was with a couple of friends somewhere in someone's house. We walked up to the bottom of the staircase and all of the sudden we heard something. It sounded like muffled cries and screams coming from the upstairs bedroom. We thought that someone was kidnapping someone upstairs, or they were watching a scary movie.

Alright, a dream today.

Sleeptime: 2am
Final wokeup: 11am

Supplements: Nothing

The dream:
I was with my girlfriend in an appartment, it was our own appartment I believe.
Still I'd no job or school, but was gonna call and ask a woman that works on the school and she would help me.
So at the evening I was so tired, I was on my computer and then I went to sleep. I woke up and didn't see my girlfriend, I wondered where she is.
Though I went outside because I'd stuffs to do. First I texted that woman and asked over text if she got time to help me now. Even though I though of have a walk to that school and meet her up, but to be sure I sent text message anyway.
Then I started to text my girlfriend, asked her where she is and that I didn't see her yesterday night and morning.
She texted me back that she has been playing GSM at the night and morning, so she been home by the computer! and I had probably not seen her.
So well I kept on walking through the city or wherever I was, to get some stuff, and then head off towards the school/local where I knew that woman were.

And that's what I can remember from the dream.

This night i remembered 2 dreams

the first one, i cant remember much, i remember walking through what looked like the slums of brazil. i saw a house with an old white haired lady in it. sitting with her back to the window she was really old, it felt like she was an old family relative. i think her name was joyce or grace.
we both went in to the (i was with somebody, didnt see who) house to see.
Then suddenly i'm back out side the house where the dream started, looking at the back of the old ladys head. the whole city looked like it had been bombed, most of the houses were rubble. i felt like i hadnt been here for years.
then i saw the old ladys hair, she looked lifeless sitting in the chair i said to myself "i hope she's not dead"
i was right outside the window now looking.
she got up and turned round we were all very happy to see each other and i hugged her through the window (the was never any pane of glass there) We then walked around the house towards the door and the dream ended.



2nd dream.
I was in a supermarket. it resembled Tesco and wallmart. very tall and big building.
I was with this boy, he must have been like 12 or something, quite young. He got on the bike he found on display but he fell over and it made a loud noise, i could hear shouting from behind me and i asked him "is that someone from our group or a worker" (i think we were part of a larger group visiting this mall) "yeah, its a worker!" i heard from behind me, rather aggressively. i turned round and acknoleged him. i said something along the lines of "oh right, no problem, sorry about that" he replied agressivly again although i cant remember what he said. I relpied with something, cant remember what i said, something to the effect of "listen tough guy, we've said sorry now back down" after that i turned back around and walked away down an aisle.
when we got to the end i could see my mum outside at the bus station hurryingly waving us over. me and the boy must have been late for the bus.
the dream ended after that.

There is a video game I'm playing. It might appear in a couple of different dreams. I don't really remember the game itself. I'm in a rather large house with a lot of rooms. Most of my family are there and they all have their own rooms. I'm in the kitchen making an evening snack. I look around and everybody is sleeping in their rooms. I sit down in the living room. Someone comments on how sleepy they all are. I'm a little sleepy but not enough to go to bed early. So I do some channel surfing, but there's nothing interesting.

I had a lot of other dream this same night, but seeing the effort it took to write this, I decided to only write about the lucid one. As a side thought, the guy from RL mentioned in this dream went to sleep at 4am and I woke up from this at 4:18am that same morning. He didn't remember his dreams, but I found this interesting.

April 23rd, 2012

Dream 1:

I’m walking down this hallway in this seemingly random house. The flooring is hardwood and it’s fairly dark [as if it’s night outside and the only bits of light present are from within the house]. I take a left turn to peer inside a room. Like the hallway, the room has wooden floors and is for the most part bare, containing little to no furniture. I take no more than a step inside the threshold of the open doorway before I suddenly become lucid {I still have no idea why, guess I just asked myself if I was dreaming out the blue}.

I then turn to my left and look toward the left side of the room. I focus on making this one orange-eyed girl appear there {I met her in a previous dream months ago and she’s the first dream character I’ve tried meeting again (for the most part to see if she’s real or just a projection of my conscious)}. I don’t as much try to conjure her with my mind but find her, try to reach out with my consciousness {or whatever..lol} and bring her to this space. The scene starts to waver/ become unstable (?) so I stop and try focusing on stabilization as it seems that my efforts are either not working or I’m simply getting ahead of myself. I start to use my RHTF (rub hands then floor) technique. Rubbing my hands together, I feel heat from the friction. Though the my hands feel rougher than usual, it feels real enough to make me fear that I’ve woken up and am simply doing this curled up in my bed. I then squat down to rub the hardwood floors but somewhat a bit unsuccessfully (as in I’m not able to really feel them too well).

I get up, still a bit disoriented, and try to turn on as many lights as possible to make the atmosphere less dark and scary. I flip several of the light switches on the wall, but only one or two of the lights in the room/hallway turn on; the rest don’t work. I think, ‘Oh yeah, that’s right..DAMN IT, DREAMWORLD!>__<’

I then start descending a flight of stairs to the first floor (from this point on, the random house I’m in becomes pretty much my house in RL). As I descend down past the dividing wall of the stairwell, my mother’s office area on the first floor comes into view on my left. The lights in the alcove are all on. All is normal with the space except, instead of its ordinarily door-less arch way that serves as its entrance, there is an enormous red, wooden, rectangular door. It’s made of up thick, vertically-running planks with two horizontally-running, black, metal bars (one near the bottom and the other near the top). It also has [two rows] of black, circular studs and a [downward cuving (?)] black handle. As I go down the stairs, getting closer to the door, it starts to slowly close. When I reach about the third step from the bottom, the door starts moving faster and slams shut. This startles me, but I do my best not to be scared. I skittishly think, ‘Well, that was weird..heh..heh O_O’ ‘. (kind of looked like this) -->



I reach the end of the stairs, turn left, and continue down the hallway, past the huge door, to the kitchen. Once there, I stand in the space between the living room and kitchen facing the living room. I sense a presence suddenly. Behind me. By the fridge. O_o Slowly and cautiously, I turn around, afraid of who/what might be there...

It turns out only to be my guy friend from one of my classes in RL. My eyes meet his steel greys. Relieved, I walk over to him. He might have started to greet me but I excitedly tell him, “Michael, we’re dreaming!” His eyes widen and he replies bewildered, “Wha—?? How is that possible..?” as he looks down at his hands, turning them over, then looking back at me. We continue talking as I turn to walk back down the hallway, this time with him at my side following my lead. It feels SO much less scary to finally NOT be alone in a lucid dream and I’m more than grateful to have his comforting company. We reach the front door with the office door to the left. He turns right and starts going up the stairs. I would have followed, but I pause looking at the front door. I interrupt him mid-sentence to say, “Hey wait, come check this out,” The front door is exactly the same except for its oval, beveled window. The glass is undulated inward toward me. I run my right hand down the glass, feeling its cool smoothness. Michael comes to my right side and does the same. We both are amazed.



I open the front door out of curiosity. It's day time [and over cast]. A black sedan is park outside the house and an Irish-looking man, probably in his late thirties, steps out of the car. He sports a suit with a dark green overcoat. I'm not sure if he's walking passed the house or towards it, but he definitely is looking in its direction. For some reason, I feel threatened by him, and try to shut the door and lock it as nonchalantly, but quickly as possible. I swing the door shut easy enough, but the lock's bolt hole is slightly too high off alignment. I have to raise the door and then twist the lock in order to secure it, just as I feel the most panicked by the suspicious stranger's presence outside. I close it before anything bad can happen. {I swear, I have to find a way to make my dreams less horrifying}

I then continue up the stairs with Michael who had been patiently waiting for me. Once upstairs, I'm unsure what to do next.

Suddenly in my thoughts, I see the actor Peter Krause (from the show Six Feet Under) from the neck up, floating in a sort of colorful void. My view goes from farther away looking at his left profile, and then zooms in and around counterclockwise into his blankly staring brown eyes. This happens two or three times (as if stuck on replay in my mind) until I think loudly, "Enough!" shaking my head to free myself of the random thought.

I'm then back in the upstairs hallway and I look up. I see the same actor in a void of smoke and clouds, varying in colors from pink, yellow, and wisps of aqua blue. He's shirtless and curled up in a ball with his back mostly to me [he might have had black tattoos along his upper back and arms]. He appears to be sleeping peacefully. I think to myself, "No! Don't wake up! Don't return to your own body!" but I start drifting upwards. I regain consciousness.



WTF?

I'm in a small compartment, possibly a cockpit or car, I suddenly feel a concussive shock and extreme heat. Then I wake up and know that I died. My last thoughts are sorrow and worry for my 7-year-old daughter, after I am gone.

When a exiting a store with Robert (my sig. other) and our 7-year-old daughter, Nikola, she wanders off as we take notice of a tall slender man down in the parking lot, randomly shooting at people with a shot gun. We scream to Nikola to come here and she runs and gets to me, we both lie down on the ground to avoid shots, only to look up and see him standing a few feet away pointing the gun at both of us. Just as he's about to shoot, Robert pulls out a shot gun and starts firing at him. I roll with Nikola down a nearby hill, run down the street and to a outdoor food court. I sit on the ground with Nikola. I am in shock and shaking uncontrollably, unable to speak. I then hear that it has ended. So reluctantly get up and walk up the street toward the store. There are police everywhere. It's now raining. I approach an officer directing traffic. I ask "Is he alive?". The look on his face tells me no. He says "It wasn't from gunshot." then he is distracted and the feeling of total loss and devastation for Nikola and I is overwhelming. Then I wake up.
