    1. my brother dies

      by , 05-05-2012 at 02:17 PM
      unfortunately i don't recall much but this is what i remember :
      me, my mom and 2 of my brothers are outside some type of hospital. there is no emergency but we're just there. the weather is really dark, like, the sky is covered in clouds and it's really dark with a bit of wind.
      we go to the top of the building only for my mother to tell us that we have to go back down and to another building. even at that other building, my mother tells us to go to the roof. and we do. once there we see that there is a kind of plank between this building and another building. my mom tells my younger brother to cross over to the next building using the plank. than we both start talking and when we look back we see that instead of K, my youngest brother S is crossing over. he is walking fine for a moment but than suddenly loses his balance and falls down. the fall to the bottom is quite long as the building is really tall but when he does hit groend i see a puddle of blood forming around him. i run down and in panic but see that he's still alive. i pick him up and realize that i'm covered in blood too. my mom is just behind me. she tells me to carry him to the hospital and i do. but when i get there, i wake up.

      5/5 - There was a man walking up concrete stairs to the subway platform above. I was behind him when a quiet commotion broke out on the platform. A veteran (looked Ethiopian/Eritrean) was being arrested by a some kind of swat team. As he was being hustled away the man in front of me turned and said, "What do you expect. Wasn't no outside/inside internet."

      That makes no sense. But in the dream I understood it to mean something like.....
      "The Internet was an inside job" - which only makes slightly more sense. But not much. Somehow the guy did something to the entire Internet.

    3. Dream Fragments 05 - 08.07.09

      by , 05-05-2012 at 11:45 AM (Dream Tales)
      #1
      My brother and I were in a small block of houses with a woman with short blonde hair who was apparently our friend. Her house was being terrorized by a strange black monster and so we were trying to get all of her stuff out. My brother and I ran in to grab the last of her bags and I saw the monster on the stairs above us. I yelled at my brother to run and we took off.

      #2
      We were all out in the street. I walked up to the blonde woman with a portly looking man dressed as a security guard.

      “Here’s your monster”, I laughed.

      “Hi Jack”, said the woman carelessly.

    4. The Beach

      by , 05-05-2012 at 11:44 AM (Dream Tales)


      It was a glorious sunny day and I was at the beach with Tony and Ziva from NCIS. I ran along the coastline in my swimming costume and as I did so a group of seals began to swim past, leaping into the air as they did so.

      “Look!” I cried, “Look, look! Seals!”

      The seals were really tame and cam right up close, even letting me stroke them. Then Ziva went past in the sea on a giant blue and white foam board. She was laughing with Tony who had a red and white board.

      I dashed off and grabbed my own board (also red and white) then joined them in the sea. The water was warm and a crystalline blue and we all laughed as we splashed about. Suddenly Tony and I went all elemental.

      A fiery red glow appeared around my body with white Japanese symbols emanating from it. Tony got a matching blue glow and we both became covered in cool, body hugging armour of the same colour.

      Ziva appeared beside us in matching yellow armour and a fight began but it was blurry and I couldn’t make anything out. The only thing I remember was seeing Ziva beat down. Her armour vanished and not long after so did mine and Tony’s.

      Tony then announced that he had to leave and we all looked miserable. We walked him to the bus stop and sat around with him whilst we waited for the bus to arrive. Before it could, however, I found myself with Tony in a Tesco store. My auntie was working there in a Woolworths uniform and I said hello to her.

      “That’s my auntie Karen”, I informed Tony.

      “I know”, he said. “I’ve met her before”.

      Then we bumped into my mum in the cheese section. She had just mistaken Tony for my nonexistent gay brother when I woke up.

    5. Tattoo Story, fragments

      by , 05-05-2012 at 11:14 AM
      First

      A man who makes tattoos for a living is telling me a story about a woman who took a large tattoo and then decided to have it removed later. The man removed it himself and it was a very dramatic thing for him. It took at four long sessions and apparently was more painful to the customer than making it was.

      Second

      I have a punch of laser pointer pens. The lasers have different colors and they have some elemental properties connected to the colors. They all seem to cause some kind of painful sensations. I test them with a couple of other people.

      Third

      I'm in a city center, inside a building complex, a shopping center of such. I look around and decide to have a coffee. I notice I don't have any money with me, so I don't. I look around and start heading home.

      Fourth

      I'm in a group of tourists in a bus. We arrive at a city, very much like the one in the previous piece. I check that I have money with me this time. We're looking for a particular building, but I'm actually more interested in the layout of the city than in sightseeing.

      Dream #1
      I'm in a at a fair, when I see some of my old teachers talking. They pulled my aside and asked what I'm doing after I've studied. Not sure what to answer they suggest what I should do. I go and notice an old Harvest Moon game. It's the first one on the Game Boy Color. I hear a commentary about that game (also about an Oddworld game which features straw balls. I decide to play the game. First I get a storm and then an earthquake. I go in to stables (in the game) and notice that they are different. The animals aren't sad. Confused about that I go to the bus to go home. (Insert a few imagined bus hours here). I dismount from the bus and notice that I'm not at home, but in my neighbour village although it looks differntly.
      I wake up

      Dream #2
      I'm in a bus going to someone (I just know somehow that I'm supposed to be there) when some thought are rising: "How am I supposed to come home? I don't know where to stay , etc." I dismount the bus with a person I know somehow. I follow him and we get to slide made of grass. We hope on and slide... somehow. The slide is actually pretty long, I can't see the end and the sliding has felt like hours. After this we land in a clearing. Suprised by this the person starts talking about a role play game he has planned. This takes the form of a slide show (without any technology the slides just appear). He explains that he wants make a table top role playing game with the Final Fantasy XIII universe, but in good and goes in great detail about this. After that he introduces me to everyone (Someone mentions something about a ring) and then
      I wake up.

      I try to chain the dream. I thnk I succeed, but we are now in a big hall and some of my old class mates are also here. There is food for breakfast here, so I go to get some food and sit at a table with some of my old class mates and we start talking. Someone mentions something about how difficult it is, creating something and suddenly I'm in my old class room. We talk about the next exam and
      I wake up.

    9. Running From Monsters

      by , 05-05-2012 at 04:05 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I was being chased by some people or some monsters. I was inside a building. Dark-yellowish tint. I was in the hallway. Behind me, there's a humanoid monster. I ran, but then found there's another one up ahead. I found a small, open "space" seemingly "carved" on the wall, with a couple of small boxes. I went there and covered my head and feet with the boxes, hoping it's too dark, and that the monsters are too stupid to realize it was me. Then, a spotlight moved about, and found me. The monsters went after me. I struggled and ran out.

      I went outside the streets, jumped down the overpass, and grabbed on to the cyclone wire as I was falling down, and ran down the street to find a car. I found an auto and jumped in. I asked the driver where he's going. He said a word or place, but I forgot what it was. He looks cute, and he wears semi-formal clothes.

      He does not seem to mind I'm there, and I think he was even humming as we drove through the traffic. I keep looking around, in case we might actually be headed where I don't want to be.

      Then we were walking down the street. I keep looking back at him in case he gets snatched by the enemy. He looks very calm.

      Fast forward, we were "racing" on the street. Running. There are people and monsters ahead of us. I raised my right hand, and a great light shone from my palms, and the enemies scattered. Then the "road" was a river, and then suddenly, the water fell below us: a waterfall. Yellow sky. I grabbed him and "redirected" our fall to a nearby wall.

      We hid there. It's a small space on cliff, surrounded by low-lying walls. Just across, we can see it's a "base" of the enemy. We just waited there. Eventually, an ally passed by. A security guard who feels familiar. He probably has been in my previous dreams. He said everything's safe. We went "down" to the house. The one across has a new owner. Looked like my high school classmate Ken. He's with his family there. For some reason, I thought he might be angry at me for "killing" something or someone of his. A pet? I think I killed his "pet" to protect mine. Our eyes met.
    10. DB Goal Attempt, Post Apocalypse, Short DEILD, Nuking an Alien (March 6, 2012)

      by , 05-05-2012 at 03:13 AM (Chronicles of Ethos)
      DreamLucidAwake

      DB Goal Attempt

      This dream was very blurry and fragmented. I was standing outside a tower that was similar to the one I trained fury mode on. Chris was standing next to me and mentioned something about "60 seconds". At this moment I remembered the Dreamer Base goal of the month and became lucid. I quickly started running up to the tower because I knew there would be a mailbox at the top. A dragon was flying outside the tower as I was running up the stairs. It started shooting fire at me, so I shot fire back. I was assuming the letter would tell me how to defeat the dragon. When I got to the top I saw a green mailbox. I don't remember what happened next though.

      Post Apocalypse

      A blurry and fragmented dream again. I was running up Main Street in Loudonville. The city was abandoned and desolate. It looked like it had been nuked or something. I remember I was being chased by something. I think they were mutants. I ran inside my grandmother's house, which was surprisingly unaffected by the nuke. I ran into the basement, somehow thinking there would be a way to escape there. Much like the Missing Baby dream, there was an optical illusion down there that hid a staircase and hallway from view. Remembering how this happened in that particular dream, I did the nose plug reality check. I was able to breathe through and I became lucid. I ran into the hidden hallway and ran down the stairs. The dream was really unstable though and I woke up.

      Short DEILD

      I managed to remain aware of my awakening from the last dream. I kept my eyes closed, didn't move, and focused on the dream I just had. It was only about 10 seconds before I slipped right back into the same dream from before. I was lucid of course when I entered the dream. I was lying down on the floor where I had left off. I was having trouble moving at first, but eventually got past that. I started running along the dark hallway again. Sadly, something woke me up again. Maybe it just wasn't the right time of night for a stable dream.

      Nuking an Alien

      Yet, another blurry and fragmented dream. I guess it was just a problem that night. I was lucid right from the start and I think I might have used DEILD. I'm not sure though. I was on Mars and there were a hundred Aranian soldiers or more riding around on flying scooters. It was a very sci-fi styled dream. They were all flying around some floating alien and shooting lasers from their scooters. The alien was generating a shield and shooting lasers at the soldiers. I noticed that the alien had many crystals surrounding its body. It was gathering energy from them. That's probably one of the main reasons the Aranians were trying to take it down.

      I was just standing there and watching the awesome fight passively. The general then started to speak to me through a radio. "Dragonborn! We need your help!" He said. I then remembered that dropping a nuke was something I always wanted to do. I locked onto the aliens energy and then made a downward motion with my hand. A nuke then landed on the alien and blew it to pieces. Unfortunately the explosion was so powerful that my dream destabilized and I woke up.

    11. Searching for Claire (March 5, 2012)

      by , 05-05-2012 at 02:21 AM (Chronicles of Ethos)
      DreamLucidAwake

      Searching for Claire

      Well, when you don't write a dream until 2 months later, things become a little blurry. It started out with me walking along some part of Honey Creek Road in Ohio. Chris was also walking with me. It was rainy and a little foggy. We were looking for something, but I wasn't quite sure what we were looking for at the time. The setting of the dream and the fact that we weren't succeeding made us feel kind of bad. "I'm getting sick of this rain." I said. Right after I said this, I noticed a girl ahead who doesn't seem to be bothered by the rain. I'm pretty sure it was my dream student, Molly.

      Some sort of weird dream thing happened where I started seeing the world through her eyes for a moment. Through her eyes, there was no rain, but only sunshine. Everything was just fine and happy. There's something I learned from that about positive thinking, but I don't feel like explaining it. When my vision returned to normal, I felt a lot better. The rain quickly disappeared and the sun started to shine brightly. We walked over to Molly and greeted her. I can't remember what was said, but she agreed to help us.

      As we walked along the road I saw a town off in the distance. To the side of the road I also notice a sign with a few things about the town. There were pictures of different things associated with the town. At the bottom right corner of one of the images there was a man reading a newspaper. I saw Claire's picture in the paper.
      I finally became lucid due to all of the obvious signs I was dreaming. I realized that Claire is who were looking for. She was missing and was apparently last spotted in this town. I looked away from the sign and said, "I think Claire might be in this town!" "Why do you think that?" Chris asked. "Look at this picture." I told him. When I looked back at the picture, the newspaper showed an article about a car crash instead of Claire.

      I got a little annoyed and tried to figure out how I thought I saw Claire. "I could have sworn I saw Claire in that picture." I said. "I remember you told me that sometimes text changes inside dreams. So maybe it works the same for pictures." Molly said. That actually made sense. "Thanks, I think you might be right." I said. I started walking towards the town, but then it felt like I was alone. I turned around and realized they were still standing next to the sign. "Aren't you guys coming?" I asked. I saw that Chris was looking a bit nervous. "Claire scares me sometimes." Chris said. "Alright, you two can stay here, but I'm going to find Claire." I said. I then proceeded to walk towards town.

      The dream skipped here and I was now inside an indoor basketball court. Claire was one of the coaches for some reason. I was going to talk to her, but I somehow ended up being put in the middle of a basket ball game. I used my lucid powers to give myself a little bit of an edge in the game. I was doing things like using strength to make power shots, moving very fast, and slowing down time. When one of the kids finally realized what I was doing he became very angry. He started to have some sort of violent anger seizure thing and had to be taken to the hospital. I think I woke up after that.

      Dream #1 Oneironaut's Plan.

      Im in some huge warehouse with Oneironaut Zero. He shows me this huge map on a table and different locations of places that we need to investigate. He is wearing some black shades, and a militant uniform with badges all on him. I reach in my pocket and grab my hawk coin and sit down in this chair while he is explaining to me this plan that he has devised.

      Picking up Sinoblak.

      Im in the backseat of a car, while Oneironaut is driving. It is night time, and we are driving on a highway. Oneironaut is telling me something about blending in at the place where im headed so we don't blow our cover. We pull up to this building and pick Sinoblak up. She is wearing a long black trench coat with some dark shades on and has black leather gloves on and tight leather pants with leather boots.

      No turning back now.

      Oneironaut is going over the plan with me and Sinoblak again. He tells us that this is no easy walk in the park, and that we need to be careful with our words once in the building.
      I get out the car and Sinoblak gets out and i walk up to this building and SB stops me and hugs me and says to be careful.

      4:30 -4:45 Am. Did some subconscious training and went back to bed.

      WILD - Dream #2 The Romancer.

      Im in some Boat, It is night time. with this beautiful Greek woman with long dark hair, and slanted eyes, and a very curvy figure. Im in bed with her telling her something about i have to leave because im putting her life at risk. She cries telling me please don't leave her and letting me know she wants to go with me. I kiss her and look back at her as i leave. I walk back to her and give her my Maroon Moonstone totem and tell her to keep it. I also mention to her that she will see me again when the time is right. We kiss eachother passionately and i head for the docks and flee thru the forest.

      On the Run.

      Im wanted for something, and im fleeing thru the forest hearing dogs barking and helicopters going over me. It is enough to make me lucid, and i decide to continue on with my scenario. I hear swat team members talking, as i head for one of my hideouts. Its another boat area, and im, setting up different traps and baits trying to be as quick as possible. Im hearing windows shatter, and footsteps enter the boat as i am preparing traps and things on the boat. I reach in the fridge, and grab some soda and throw some sort of pill and small object in the bottle. I duck behind the kitchen counter, and toss the bottle hearing a loud explosion. I run thru the smoke, tackling thru all the members and even taking their weapons. I shoot, stab, and take out an entire swat team of these guys.

      I dive thru the carpet floor and wake up.

      5:35 - 5:45 Am. Did plenty of reality checks with my totem. And a little bit of subconscious training.

      Dream #3 Snake Charmer.

      Im in my 2nd home fighting this giant snake lady. She has a face of a goddess, but her body is a long snake. She takes her tongue and tries wrapping it around me, I am caught in her tongue.. and managed to flee from her grip by biting her tongue. She screams and lets me loose. Im running thru different rooms as she is slithering thru the halls and take her rattlesnake tail and bashing thru walls trying to get me. She is hissing and laughing at the same time this is being done. I look at the wall as it is a dead end, I turn around and look at her and fall backwards and wake up.

      False awakening.

      Im in my 2nd home again and wake up in my bed I look around and notice that im here in my 2nd home, and start becoming lucid i started thinking about the TOTM. I went outside looking for a DC to possess no one in sight. i started walking around and noticed a old man sitting down at a table. I walk up to him and hear my alarm going off in wl and wake up.


      Notes: I am fairly happy with my recall now. I could have went back to sleep after my last dream, but had to be up 2 hours later.
    13. Being in middle age turns to Buenos Aires

      by , 05-04-2012 at 09:32 PM
      I was on a test with a teacher called Silvana, but I was outside school. The place was like a prision of india.

      After that short dream ended I woke up by the alarm. It was 2 am so I wanted to try WILD.

      In the process I fell asleep normally so I didn't achieve WILD, however in the dream I said ""Damn it, i fell asleep, i couldn't do WILD", but even saying that I didn't become lucid. Maybe it was because the dream was still not vivid, I had to stabilize it.

      Later I dreamt about an old console I had with a cool game that I still want to play. It was Sega Genesis, but still the games I had were completely different.

      After that I changed to a completely different story that lasted until the end of the dream. I was in the middle age. If you watch Game of Thrones, I was on the side of the Khaleesi (Emilia Clarke) so we got into a castle, infiltrated. The Khaleesi was with another man and as there wasn't anybody on the castle yet, the man fucked her. But they didn't know that their troops (which were outside of the island waiting) were decimated. When the Khaleesi knew that the people were hunting her she started to run upstairs, and she appeared in a hotel room. There was a chinese, master of Kung Fu, that wanted to kill her so she ran to a different room. Nobody was able to help her and that chinese reached her. She had to defend herself, but something amazing happened: she saw the future and she saw that she almost killed that chinese. Therefore that happened. Then they appeared in a big city, Buenos Aires, and the chinese went to play the violin into a bar. That was the time where the Khaleesi could scape so she did it. Then the Khaleesi transformed into me and the guy with her into my sister, but still in Buenos Aires. We were looking for a hospital, and we found one very close. We went there (it was night by then) and a lot of low class (guachos) came from the end of the street. Clearly they were going to steal to us, so we hid. Many of them passed through but the last ones saw us and they started threatening us. I couldn't fight him because I was tired (fought the chinese) so he stole all of my money.

    14. Riverside Snipers, Basic TOTM, Advanced TOTM (May 4, 2012)

      by , 05-04-2012 at 09:16 PM (Chronicles of Ethos)
      DreamLucidAwake

      Riverside Snipers

      This dream started off at the pavilion at Riverside Park in Loudonville. The pavilion was rigged up like a bunker with sandbags and barbed wire protecting it. I was there with about 20 other people maybe. There were tons of different guns lying on the tables, but mostly sniper rifles. There were a few officers there that were giving orders, tasks, and equipment. Before anyone could tell me what exactly was happening or what my job was, bullets started flying towards us. "They're here! Get to your positions!" An officer yelled. I looked towards the other side of the park and saw a bunch of people with guns shooting at us. The battle had begun.

      I moved to the left side of the pavilion where there only seemed to be a couple other people. Because I didn't have any orders or any idea of the situation, I thought it would be best to stay out of the way. There were some automatic weapons on this side. I grabbed what I'm assuming was an M16 rifle and ducked behind the bags of sand before I could get shot. When there was a break in the bullets flying towards me, I got back up and started firing at them. I hit a few enemies before they started to hide behind the trees and park toys.

      It wasn't very long until my clip went empty. Right when I stopped firing, a girl with a sniper rifle came out from behind a tree. My danger sense activated on its own and I looked right at her when she fired. I then slowed down time and just barely dodged the bullet. Time control had saved me once again.
      I became lucid at this point because I recognized time control as one of my dream powers. I ducked back down behind the sandbags and thought about my situation. I figured it would be hard to hit people so far away with an M16. I decided to try my hand at sniping.

      I ran over to the right side of the pavilion while staying as low as possible. I then picked up a hunting rifle that was painted red. I looked through the scope and started looking for people to shoot. Using time control, I was able to speed myself up to quickly find and shoot targets. I was moving a little too quickly though and accidentally shot one of my own guys. He was just standing out in the open with an SMG, so i assumed he was an enemy at first.

      "Oh shoot!" I yelled when I realized my mistake. "Dude! You just shot one of our guys!" Someone to my left said. "He was just standing in the open so I thought he was an enemy! Well, I didn't like him that much anyways." I said. We then carried on with the battle and sniped more enemies. I started to feel really guilty about shooting the guy though. "Okay, just kill me now. I deserve it." I said. The guy to my left pointed his rifle at my head and said, "Okay." I wasn't afraid of being killed, but I remembered that guns are very loud. That didn't make me feel very comfortable about it being pointed into my ear. I really hate loud noises. "Wait! I change my mind! That's too loud for me!" I yelled to him. "Okay." He said and went back to sniping.

      I can't remember what happened after that. I think I might have woken up voluntarily.


      Basic TOTM

      I was somewhere in the desert way out west. I was standing outside some old west styled town. I was on some sort of mission, but I can't remember what exactly the goal was. I tried walking into the town, but a few snipers were hiding around the town. They recognized me as someone who is a threat and started shooting at me. I remembered how snipers were a theme of the last dream and became lucid. I slowed down time and dive rolled behind a building. Strangely, they acted as if I didn't exist anymore and the town's residents became active.

      I sat behind that building for a moment. I was trying to think of a way to sneak in without getting shot at. I could feel the energy of someone walking towards the building. I knew this person would see me and cause a panic. I suddenly remembered the basic task of the month for some reason and linked it to my problems. I waited for the person to come around the corner and prepared to turn into a shadow. A woman came around the corner and I turned into a shadow. Before she had the chance to scream, I phased into her body. I'm not 100% sure what I did once i was inside her. I sort of attached my shadow to her body while mixing our energies. I waited until it felt like her body felt like it was mine. I moved my body around a little to test it out. I had completely taken over her body and she probably wasn't aware of anything.

      I casually walked back into town. I watched the snipers out of the corner of my eye and they didn't sense that anything was wrong. I had a feeling that I would need guns for my mission. I walked into a gun store and looked around. Surprisingly, no one was there and there was only a few sniper rifles lying around. I would have expected to see some revolvers. I grabbed a rifle and walked outside. I was only inside for like 10 seconds maybe and there were already a few black cars parked outside. Some government agents like the ones in The Matrix stepped out of the vehicles. They could have been pointing their guns at me because I was holding a sniper rifle. I get the feeling though that they knew I was trouble.

      When they started firing at me, I slowed down time and started dodging bullets. I flipped behind the porch of a building and took cover there. I was doing my best not to get shot while in someone's body. When I heard their guns go click, I went out into the open while slowing down time. I looked through the scope and killed an agent who had an assault rifle. A couple agents with hand guns started shooting at me. I did an aerial to get out of the way. Half way through the aerial I shot one of the agents in the heart. When I hit the ground, I was still being shot at, so I rolled behind one of the cars. I then stood back up and quickly shot the last too remaining agents.

      As I reloaded my rifle, something started falling towards the Earth. It was some sort alien monster machine thing. It had four steel tentacle legs that it used for walking. The main part of the creature was a giant brain inside a dome. It landed on the roof of a building and showed me some spinning blades at the end of its tentacles. I shot it a few times with my rifle, but the bullets only bounced off of it. I tossed the sniper rifle to the side and summoned my crystal sword. It swiped at me with its spinning blades and I blocked it with my sword. When I knocked the tentacle away, I focused lightning magic into the crystals of my sword. I jumped towards the monster and slashed it a few times. It appeared to cause damage and pain to the creature. I was about to strike its brain, but a tentacle came from the side and grabbed me. It swung me around the air for a moment before throwing me back down towards the ground. I surrounded myself with earth magic before I hit the ground to absorb the impact.

      I got back off the ground and ran right back towards the monster. When I jumped towards it a blue bubble of energy surrounded both of us. We were then teleported to the monster's home planet. It was a dark, cold, rocky planet. Three more of those monsters appeared in front of us. Rather than killing me though, they actually started talking. "Junior! What have I told you about rampaging?!" The bigger one said. "It isn't nice..." The monster next to me said. "That's right! You're grounded!" The big one said. "But mom!" He said. "No buts! Come on, we're going home." The big one told him. The two other ones next to the mother started laughing. "Mom, you're embarrassing me!" He said. "You should have thought about that before you terrorized this little girl."

      After this very unexpected discussion, they all left to go home. I think there home was a giant hole in the ground. I waved to them as the walked away and the mother waved back. I woke up after this.


      Advanced TOTM

      I was sitting on the couch at my grandmother's house in Loudonville. It was night time. Bill offered me a cup of coffee and I accepted it. I've never had coffee before and I felt like trying it for some reason. I took a sip of it and it tasted horrible. I'm not even sure how to describe the taste. I then went to the kitchen to find a way to improve upon it. I found some maple syrup and decided to pour a glob of that in. Everything is better with maple! I also found a container of sugar. I poured that in until the cup started over flowing. After mixing it a little I tasted it again. It tasted better, but the coffee taste was still too much for me to tolerate.

      My sister came through the door and told me that it was Halloween night. We were apparently supposed to attend some Halloween seminar or something. I didn't really want to go, but it was either that or drinking coffee. The seminar was supposed to be in a big white building at the end of Main Street. It felt like it was too far away for me to simply walk. I like to run. I started sprinting ahead for a few seconds before my sister yelled at me. I forgot that she hates running and doesn't like being outside at night alone. So I ran back to her, lifted her onto my back, and started running. It was a bit of a challenge because it actually felt like I was carrying someone.

      By the time we got to the end of Main Street I was tired out. My sister had to drag me across the floor at this point because I was too exhausted and lazy. When we walked inside there was a huge crowd of people, a podium on the other side, and a bunch of Legos on a table in the middle of the crowd. A lady was at the podium giving a speech about something. I can't remember anything she said though, so it apparently wasn't anything I cared too much about.

      I stood there for a while and tried to keep myself busy during the boring speech. My attention was then directed towards the Legos. There was a little girl that was some how able to command them to magically walk on their own. I think this little girl was actually Lucia.
      I became lucid for what I am not quite sure. It might have been because of Lucia or because of magical Lego people. I remembered the advanced task of the month at this moment. I remembered that I wanted to make Lego people become life sized. There were two of them on the table that weren't moving. I did what Lucia did and poked both of the Lego people. They suddenly jumped to life and started moving around. These two Lego people then ran into each other, and the motions they were making looked kind of odd.

      I noticed that the Lego people had energies like living people. I focused on this energies and tried to expand them. When I did that, the two awkwardly moving Lego people grew to about my size. The attention of everyone in the room shifted to them now. It turns out those weird motions were them trying to have sex. Everyone in the room found this kind of disturbing. I summoned a camera and aimed it at the Lego people. "Let's try to remember this moment as insufficiently as possible" I said. I think by that I meant we should try to forget this as much as we can. I then took a picture of them and tore the picture apart. When I did this, the two Lego people disappeared and everyone forgot it had happened. I had captured a moment in time and effectively erased it.

      I can't remember much of what happened after that. I sat through the boring speech for a while. I decided that the speech was boring enough for me to want to remember as insufficiently as possible. So I walked outside with my camera and aimed it at the building. "Let's try to remember this moment as insufficiently as possible!" I said. I then took the picture, tore it up, and walked back towards my grandma's house. I think I woke up before I got there though.

      Oh yeah, this is what euphoria feels like! [Trip Report]
      Alcohol, Cannabis
      Date: May 3rd, 2012

      Dose:
      repeated, oral, Alcohol - Cabernet Sauvignon
      repeated, smoked, Cannabis

      Yesterday afternoon, K, the same K I always talk about but who from this point on I'll refer to as R, texted me saying that his evening plans had fallen through so I asked him if he wanted to hang out. I went over there without really intending to get too far away from sober, but at one point we decided to go get drinks at Sonic and then buy some wine and beer afterward. I'm still trying to not really drink these days, but I figured it'd be okay as long as I got a set amount and stuck to it, and stayed away from liquor. I bought a bottle of red wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon, and R bought a six pack of beer, and then we headed back to his apartment.

      After R found a neighbor with a corkscrew, I started drinking pretty quickly. We watched an episode of Metalocalypse that R wanted to show me and then listened to some music, and I was feeling drunk pretty easily. Alcohol tends to hit me pretty hard most days the way I normally drink, especially when I haven't had a drink in a while. I barely checked what time it was at any point in the night, so it's hard for me to say the time frames beyond this, but we just talked about stuff for a good amount of time and kept drinking, and eventually I started to notice that my memory didn't extend very far beyond 10-20 seconds back. I decided to give it a rest as to avoid a blackout.

      Ever since my tequila excursion before last where I blacked out for the first time I've been faced with a problem. Once you're on the verge of blacking out, how do you directly enhance the alcohol's high without losing awareness? But then, R brought the solution straight to me. Smoke weed! Sounds simple, no? But I realized then how accurate of a solution it is. Alcohol is said to raise phenethylamine levels in the brain, which causes D2 activation. I've had enough clothes-shedding tequila experiences to believe this is true, since my mindset, imagination, euphoria, dissociation, EVERYTHING I get from drinking tequila, and to a lesser extent other alcohols as well (I just don't drink them as fast as tequila), is characteristic of D2. The beauty of this is, THC works by raising phenethylamine levels too, to an even more significant degree than alcohol at least for me, so the D2 effects will stack without increasing the GABAergic amnesia! R only had a small amount of weed, but he had wanted to get rid of it anyway. We loaded a bowl and quickly smoked it, and it was pretty high quality. I'm also fairly certain I took another hit or two later on, but I'm not sure exactly when it was. Some time in there I also drank the last bit of wine from my cup (yes, cup ) and put the rest of the wine away; I can't remember if that was before or after that last bit smoking. There was just enough wine in the bottle left for another cup of the sizes I'd been pouring, so I took out a pretty good amount of it.

      Once it had all hit me, I was just lying on the floor staring at the ceiling in ecstasy. I hadn't felt that good since way back when R and I first started getting heavy into the drug scene! The weed high was mostly assimilated into the drunkenness, rather than adding its own effects it really just potentiated what I was already feeling. Everything around me was in a constant spin and difficult to focus on, but in a very pleasant way. My body high was very intense, and I essentially felt like I was blackout drunk but not blacked out. It was pretty great. R and I ended up just talking mostly for a while, and at one point we spontaneously started improvising a skit where I had already seen some unmentioned truth and I was trying to convince him that he was keeping himself blind by resisting it, and in the end when he finally admitted to it he couldn't bear the weight of reality and ended his life, and I silently lamented his loss. It was rather satisfying considering it flowed pretty flawlessly. Eventually we were getting hungry so we decided to walk down the main street his apartment complex is off of and find some food.

      The outside world was awesome! The D2 effects were in full swing here making everything look very intensely detailed and colors were highly saturated, and I felt extremely playful as far as perceiving my environment went. Combined with the memory fog of being drunk, it made the area look like a totally new place for me to explore again, despite having been there countless times. It was already around 1:00am at this point, or possibly a little later (it's hard to remember exactly), so we weren't expecting too much, but we tried to going to Del Taco first. Closed! There were people in there so we tried walking through the drive thru and they totally ignored us. We walked to Whataburger next and they were closed too, and we were considering trying the drive thru again since we know it's 24/7 for sure, but then R noticed that the Jack-in-the-Box across the street had an OPEN sign turned on in the window. Success! We stumbled over there as we had been this whole time and went inside, and I don't remember what I ordered but it was some chicken sandwich, and holy crap it was freaking fantastic. It was almost too much to handle, it was soooo good. I was still fairly full from earlier in the day when I had my 20 McNuggets celebration meal from McDonald's though, so after the sandwich and about half of my french fries I gave up. R, barely having eaten all day, ordered three sandwiches and a thing of cheese sticks, and finished my fries.

      After we finished eating we walked back to R's apartment and we were both pretty beat. I told R I could sleep on the floor but he wouldn't let me, he insisted that I take his bed. (There was nothing else to sleep on like a couch or anything, it's his new apartment and he doesn't really have much furniture yet.) I'm pretty sure it only took me about five or ten seconds to pass out after my head hit the pillow. When I woke up today I was fairly dissociated, I wasn't really comprehending much of reality aside from how comfortable the bed I was in was. I rolled around sort of in a trance until finally I opened my eyes all the way and saw that my vision was so blurry it was nearly pixelated, and there was a strange filter over everything, sort of a grid of yellow, blue, red, and green dots that was creating sort of a fuzzy static noise as well, but it faded away quickly. I didn't really want to get out of bed yet at the risk of being hungover, so I just rolled around some more trying to fall asleep again. I'm pretty sure I did at least once or twice, but I was also hallucinating a fair amount. Just hypnagogic and hypnopompic stuff, I suppose this combination made them come out especially easily. At least five or six times I saw R come into the room and try to wake me up for various reasons, though he never actually did, and I knew he had really gone to work before I even woke up the first time. I heard voices coming from the room next to me a few times too, but I think they were actually coming from outside. I also spent some time looking at the ceiling and noticing what a strange pyramid-like shape it had, only to later look at the ceiling again when I actually got up and notice it was flat.

      Surprisingly, there was no hangover of any kind. When I got home I did some chores and then got in the shower and felt very refreshed and energized. As I'm typing this I still feel fairly ready to do something. Definitely a good experience overall.
