non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

(...) I entered some café or restaurant and was looking around for a table. I saw a group of 4 or 5 people at a table to my left and one of them was James McAvoy. Well, I have a huge crush on him, so without wasting one minute of the dream, I just walked in his direction and almost knocked him down his chair when I grabbed him by the collar to kiss him. He apparently liked it because he got up and we started making out right there. I couldn't care less about the other DCs. We were already half naked on the floor, when I woke up. Sadly... lol

These are some Dreams that were powerful enough that I recall them even years later... But are not written in my dream journal.

My father stopped me from helping them, stating that "If you touch them, your head will fall off too". This dream scared me, but also put me in a position where I wanted to help someone but was unable to do so.

I woke up upon leaving the building. The only two images I remember are one of another student in a hoodie in the hallway while I was fleeing - possibly the shooter. And I remember an aerial view of the school's campus, with 6 trees and police surrounding the place.

In real life, while picking up my tuxedo for prom, I had to go to a city with bad traffic, where I was watching a girl ride by on a motorcycle, when suddenly her bike was hit by a turning vehicle, throwing her off the bike and into the asphalt. After moving the bike out of the road and making sure that the emergency authorities had the situation under control, we left. This was the beginning of my car wreck anxiety, and the recurring theme of car accidents in my dreams and subconscious. Now, onto the dream.
--------------------------
(Dream Time) -- I was driving my mother around, doing some sort of secret mission for the enemies of the united states. On multiple occasions, men in black suits approached us and attempted to convince us not to do whatever it was that we were doing. At one point, a man in a suit offered me a lo-carb monster drink to persuade me not to take part in the deal. I had no choice but to continue the mission. We left the city and hit a country road. I noticed a minivan coming in the distance toward me. After watching it for a few seconds, I confirmed that it was in fact in my lane, coming directly at me. The faint sound of a blaring horn became louder and louder, and a hill began to rise to the side of me in the swerve zone. The van came closer and closer until I finally swerved off the road and stopped on top of the hill. While watching it out the window, I saw it veer back into the right lane, then off the road, and down into the grass until finally hitting a tree. When it hit the tree, someone flew through the windshield. The sounds of screaming and crying began to overtake my mind, as I watched the people crawl around, bleeding out in the grass. An entire family was in that van. Children screaming... Blood, gore... It was a truly horrible sight. I pulled out my phone to call 911, and as I was dialing I was distracted by some figures around the crash site. Not human, but humanoid. They were dragging the children around and beating the shit out of the wreck victims. One of the children was being drug through the road and slung around like a rag-doll. I tried to keep calling 911, when suddenly one of the figures appeared directly in front of me - I caught a close-up of the back of a Ferengi(Star Trek)'s head, scaring me into awakeness. To this day, it was the most horrific nightmare I can recall.

last night I dreamt I was going to a job interview with one other person. We sat at a table and the interviewer showed us a project that SIEMENS worked on last month involving train tracks. The tracks were broken in some places and needed efficient repairs. I suggested making the tracks narrower and the trains faster, to which the interviewer replied was a too expensive approach.

Before I went there, I was exploring a new dating site. It resembled myyearbook in a way. I met an interesting female on there while playing a game. I should have caught on to the fact that I was dreaming when I noticed the web site's url was strange as hell. It was like "MiaYck.cx.so.me" I should perform a reality check on all URLs. The other time I should have caught on was when I noticed the map of the train tracks suddenly became the back of a DVD case.

The other person I went into the interview with was my stepbrother. When we came to the interview, we waited in a lobby with a microwave and refreshments, a table with two chairs, and then a ton of empty room beyond that. He grabbed 3 tuna-style cans of food, while I grabbed only one. The solution I proposed to solve the train problems was a humorous application of the "Venturi Effect". Suggesting that if the tunnel was narrower, it would have less environmental impact, and that the trains would be forced to go faster to fit through it at the same pace.

I remember walking around an extended dreamscape and my awareness was rising slowly over time until I kind of noticed that I couldn't properly move fast and at some point I did an RC. I think that place where I finally became lucid was some bridge (it was day), and I was running around below it and found my movement capabilities insufficient, I got some strange feeling heralding lucidity and the RC did the rest. Upon becoming lucid it apparently also became night again.

Then there seems to be a gap, I don't recall anything specific at least.

I was really trying hard to keep myself in the dream, I was often looking at my hands as well as trying to keep my mind clear and for some reason got the idea to use Plasmids like in Bioshock (probably because people were running around which I didn't deem necessary), and after trying to equip myself with a random Plasmid I got fire and used it a few times, setting a dude on a bike aflame who suddenly decided to say that this bike was mine because I set him on fire. Then I tried to summon a random non-Bioshock plasmid but that failed. I tried to summon a Nova-like Plasmid (like the beam in Metroid Prime: Corruption), but since that failed as well I went directly with the beam Samus usually wields. After kind of defeating all idiots and some time dilation fighting scenes I got my normal Hands back and decided to do a first World Severing Seal, the pillars now significantly bigger than the last time (this time they were white and hollow, with a complicated outside), however the first 2 were not exactly standing straight. I thought about a bunch of things I wanted to do all along the way, especially about my dream guide. In the end however I started to notice how sensations form the real world slowly came in which I couldn't push away and I couldn't stabilize any longer, just as I was about to let it become day and though about trying to fly again I woke up.

The text is pretty short but the dream itself was pretty long actually, just that a lot of the things I did were repetitive exercises to keep up stability.

This dream may very well be my first "Lucid Dream" in that I was aware that I was dreaming for part of it. At the end, I realized that I was dreaming right before I woke up.

In order to induce further lucid dreaming, I'm working to remind myself that time travel is not possible, and when I dream that I am in a different time period than 2012, the logical answer is not time travel, but dreaming.

Like the other dream where I travelled in time, I was in a computer lab, doing work on the computer and bragging about the technology of the future. Yet again, I made the mistake of using the "Time Travel" logic, rather than the "Dream Setting" logic to explain why I was in the 1990s and a child.

I had two dreams last night
#1. I was hanging out with my friends Censored & Censored, driving my truck out on the back roads, when I drove down a hill into a cemetery. I hit something and blew my headlights out. When we left the cemetary, my neighbor censored was driving a tractor by, and took the "initiative" to tow my truck away and leave us there. Shortly afterwards, a car comes flying down the road and wrecks into him and my truck. After that, the army comes in. Why? Idk. When the army got there, NOTHING HAD HAPPENED.


#2 I was chilling with my mom and my brother, when we came across an old abandoned factory. We climbed a pole on the side of the building to crawl in a window and explore it. When we got inside we noticed it was a wood splitting factory. Wood came up through a hole, fell over, and was split by a saw, before being dropped down a cute. I accidentally turned on one of the machines, proving that the factory was still powered. Then we heard voices in the next room. It was still operational. We got the hell out of there.

Elaboration on The Back Roads:
Not much to elaborate on, except that yet again, a car accident happened. This is one of SEVERAL dreams containing car accidents now. What I mean by "Nothing Had Happened", was that when the army started coming over the horizon, I turned around and there was no evidence of a car accident - and then the dream ended.

Elaboration on The Factory:
I wrote that my mother and my brother were accompanying me. This is partially true. However, sometimes my stepfather was in place of my brother, particularly during the middle of the dream. During the beginning and the end, it was my brother. We were under the impression that the factory was abandoned. The style of factory function(wood splitting) is likely derived from playing Skyrim, where the mills operate in the same manner. I stood on one of the logs and it began cutting in half. When I got up and asked my mother what she thought, she speculated that the factory must run from a fuel supply contained within the factory (eg, not electricity from the city, but from a gasoline reservoir). Shortly afterwards, we heard faint talking coming from a room, and we left. My mother and my stepfather slid down the pole, but I figured the pole was too long and if I were to slide down it using my hands the friction would create heat much too hot, and I would let go and fall. If I tried to use my shirt to slide faster with less friction, I might slide too fast and get hurt at the bottom. So I wished there were some gloves. Upon that wish, I looked in the conveniently located tool box on the window, and procured a pair of gloves. When we were leaving, my mom told me she overheard the plant manager talking evil things about forced labor and keeping the factory operational...

Eventually, the storage guy came to my house and we smoked half the joint in my truck, when suddenly my parents came home. They got pissed and I tried to request a drug test to prove my innocence.

The censored part is the name of an RL friend.

The storage place was in the location of the local car-wash in town. The storage units were small lockboxes on a rack, all outdoors. The lockbox was my old Smoke-Box. After being discovered, I sat on the porch with the old hippie and discussed the situation. I joked with friends that this was a nightmare because I had quit smoking marijuana a few weeks before having this dream.

Elaboration:
I must have been tired when I wrote that journal, as I didn't elaborate much at all. I cannot remember why I was in Europe, but I rented a truck. This was coincidentally after watching the Family Guy episode making fun of U-Haul trucks being dangerous and allowing anyone to drive it. I took a sharp turn and the truck fell over on one side. When the U.S. Embassy came(U.S. Embassy, really lol?)... Anyway, when they came, I went to a meeting where they explained to me that my insurance was "Liability", not "Comprehensive"... And therefore I would be in debt for the rest of my life paying for the damage to the truck.

I've also noticed that this dream may have a strong influence from the recent car accident my step-mother was in, which I was a first responder to, and perhaps a part of my subconscious... anxiety? about car accidents, having witnessed a few car accidents in my life, including one with my own family.

I wouldn't consider this a "Nightmare", in that I wasn't ever in "Fear" during the dream, but it wasn't exactly pleasant either.

Later, I dreamt that there was a huge network of extremely tall trees - so covered in vines that a civilization made its home there. I was in a bed high in the trees, and was censored by dozens of people. When I wanted to get down, there were two choices. One scary and slow, and one fast and painful.

Elaboration on The Bunker:
It originated as a dream of simply being in a garage. The room was exactly the inside of a garage, with some weird industrial stuff inside of it. I don't exactly recall the plot, but I remember that somehow a battle-bot style tank began to chase me, and as I was running, I was going up a winding tunnel that was uphill and veered to the right. In retrospect, this was the first instance I remember of being scared and taking control of the situation... I wished that I had a bigger tank - and suddenly a bigger tank appeared around the corner. I immediately ran over the other tank, and my dream changed to the tall trees.

Elaboration on Tall Trees:
It was a network of tall, tall trees- mainly tree trunks with minimal leaves. Connecting the trees together were incredibly strong vines. The people that lived in the tree village used the vines for everything. Their homes were built into the vines and trees, and they climbed the vines to travel. I found myself tied down in a bed, where the locals took turns doing something of a ... sexual nature ... to me. When they were finished, I remember being scared of climbing back DOWN the vines. The locals told me that there were two ways to go down. I could be afraid for a long time as I crawled down the vines slowly, or I could be scared for a short time as I fell down the vines. They explained that the vines would break my fall, and that it wasn't actually that dangerous.

Addition of the Facebook:
For a brief time after the Tall Trees, I was browsing Facebook, when I stumbled upon one of the females from the village ... I sent a message, and felt desperate to go back to the village...

I attempeted to play RuneScape in class, as well as explain my case to a young classmate named classified. I showed him my English-German dictionary, which was published in 2008. Six years in the future. I planned to relive my childhood, fixing all of my mistakes. Later on, I was in a diner, and I asked if they sold cigarettes. I showed the clerk my ID, which was issued 10 years in the future. She agreed to sell me cigarettes. The dream ended with me desperately trying to come back to the future.

Elaborating on the classroom scene:
I argued with my teacher, during the argument she cussed at me, and I cussed back, but didn't get in trouble. While trying to play RuneScape, I downloaded SwiftSwitch, and found that it had many vulgar "Hacker Subculture" elements to it. Curse words and the such in the coding, etc. RuneScape showed an error when I tried to play it that was incomprehensible. The English-German dictionary was a key part of the dream in that I seemed to have it with me the entire time.

Elaborating on the diner scene:
I don't know why I was suddenly in a diner, or why they sold cigarettes. I neglected to mention that the clerk offered to give me the cigarettes on Tab, but I declined to accept the offer because I had no guaranteed source of income and therefore no collateral to pay her back. This is something I do often in real life because I am unemployed. The dream ended when I sat down on the sidewalk and began to think about the seriousness of the situation I was in. I had gone back in time, smoked, but was underage - and I had no money and had to go through school again. I began worrying about how I was going to cope with reliving my childhood - how I could make the most of it, and then I woke up.

The fragment:
I was taking away dirt from my contact lenses, it was hard corns, like sand.

The dream:
I was on a computer, inside an IRC chat. I chatted with some of my old friends who I haven't been with in over 5 years. I had found a video posted by myself year 2005 on YouTube, the video had 500 000 views. It was somewhat random video where in the middle of the video I danced/shaked like crazy, and therefor reason to that much views I guessed.

That's kind of all I remember. I rememebered the fragment when I woke up, but the dream I could recall a couple of minutes later.

During my flight, I encountered a beautiful female companion. She took me to a sort of "Hive", which was like nothing I've seen before, with spheres in a network serving as housing units. She took me to her unit, where I was introduced to many of my high school aquaintences. The first and only one that I remember was classified.

I don't remember details about the catastrophic events from which we were fleeing. But I remembered the "Hive" with vivid imagery. It was like something out of science fiction. The hive was made of a dark metallic material. The hallways shot out in many directions, including diagonal and up-and down. They were narrow crawlspaces - resembling a "Jeffries Tube" from star trek, except not as well lit. The rooms had a bed, a sofa, a lamp and a desk, and they were perfectly spherical except for the flattened floor. This hive seemed to network through something, like a mountain - so that it could be safe from the outside world.

Does anyone else have wired dreams like me, for example a few days back i had a dream where i was walking home and i was walking on the road for a little while then out of nowhere there was water on the road as if it was a river.

I saw myself in the mirrow and understood that its a dream. Made RC. I was in my old flat. Want nightspy 2 was after the door - open the door - there was fairhaired boy. I noticed that first threesteptask done and disassemble wall outlet. toched the wires - it was so HOT! and I decided to play with elictricity in a distanse - it entered in my hand about 10 santimeters from outlet and i felt warm. Then i decided to swich off lamps and have elictricity in hand - switched off all the lamps. and then i saw the sun on the street and took all it energy in my hand. It became night with stars then i tryed to make third of three step task, i tryed to make portal, paint lines in the air and in the ground and want to move to another place - but nothing

April 18, 12. 10:30pm-6am

I was at Bloomfield Head Start working with Jessica and her teacher's assistant. Today was awesome, we only had four kids and they were the good ones too! The TA was laying on the floor and I had my head on her stomach Jess was walking around to make sure the kids were okay and would sometimes set down to relax. The three of us were talking about everything that came to mind. I mainly remember talking about how nice it was to only have four kids and how good they are. we didn't even have to watch them. One of the parents showed up and we jumped to our feet pretending that we were really doing something. The parent came to pick up her daughter. The little girl looked sad. She looked like Lucrisia, a little girl in Tamera's class. Anyway, mom seen that her daughter was sad and told her, "honey, don't be sad, we will be back tomorrow. i'm not taking you out of school." The little girl smiled and left with her mom. now we had three kids. Jess told me that mom switches schools on her all the time. Jess told me, " in the last year the little girl had been here three different times." "wow," I thought, "so wonder she wasn't happy to see mom so early." everything changed, I was in a store looking at shirts. The store was all white, there were no signs, only clothes. I was looking at a white shirt with black lace in the back. I thought, "I have a shirt similar to this at home. I think ill go home and wear it." My alarm went off and I woke up.-End Dream-

Thoughts- I really had a hard time remembering this dream. I wonder if it ever gets any easier remembering dreams. Ohh, and do I really have to dream about work, I get enough of it during the day.
