    1. Two Dreams - March 24

      by , 03-20-2012 at 08:46 AM
      I had written these in my real life dream journal, but I figured that I should just type it onto here for good keeping.

      Hide and Seek
      I am exploring a small town. It's the afternoon and a few shadows cast slightly to the sides of small, two story buildings. There aren't any roads, for the buildings are too cramped together to allow any cars through. Exploring soon turns to running away. There is something chasing me, and there are other people running away from it too, but what or why is beyond me. It doesn't strike fear in me, in fact, it feels like a game of hide and seek. The path I'm running on however, feels linear. It's as if the road is forcing me into one direction. There are a few people to my side who are running with me, but I stop and decide to head in the reverse direction I was heading in. I think I can outwit whatever it is that's chasing me.

      I find a familiar entrance that was gated off earlier, but now is opened up. As I run inside, I find a glass window after turning left. As I peer through it, I find that it's a store without an entryway that some how has people shopping in it. Sensing the person/thing close by, I grab a rock and smash the window to get in. I leap inside and curl up in a ball near a clothing rack and begin to hide. The dream ends here, or at least my recall does.

      Pirate Ship
      I know that there was some connection from that dream to this dream, I just don't know what. In this one, it was night, and there is a party going on. I think I might have been running around talking with people and helping solve problems. One thing that sticks out is that someone was complaining about a sink strainer that was causing issues with the drain and asked me to fix it. After I fixed it, I began running around again to do other things and realize I am looking for something, or someone.

      All of this was taking place on some pirate ship of some sorts. The attire of the people around me ranged from old Victorian styles, to casual clothing. One girl approached me and asked me if I could help her pick out a dress for her. Internally, I was baffled because she was already wearing a dress, a big, poofy, black Victorian dress with a white bodice over it. Despite all that, I agreed and began to follower her.

      We went up some stairs and into a crowed corridor that had a window showing the outside of wherever we were at. But at this moment, I realize I found what I was looking for. Rather, who. I leap out the window after spotting someone and begin to chase them on the deck of the ship. This moment was the most memorable one, because after I tackled the person, they tell me that I need to search for some robot thing named, "Engima". At that very same moment, I look up and find that the ship is at a dock that's parallel to a concrete shore. Sort of like a shipping dock.

      The person disappears on me and hear explosions around me and the ship. A few bombers fly by blowing parts of the dock into smithereens and some distant buildings. The bombings are short, and I see large towers off in the opposite shore of the dock that logically make up the larger part of the city. The city has a forcefield around it that keeps it protected, but disables a large hole in it to allow high-powered hoses to douse the fires from afar without risking any firemen. As I begin to start on my way to search for "Enigma", I wake up.

      Conclusion
      Pretty cool dreams. Certainly started off pretty good for the end of the week and the beginning of my Spring Break. Probably one of my current favorite dreams too.

    2. Conference, no recall

      by , 03-20-2012 at 08:16 AM
      I only remember being at a conference. I know the dream had some sort of a story, but cannot remember it. It's possible it wasn't very logical. Something to do with the work I'm doing.
    3. Red Vs Blue

      by , 03-20-2012 at 05:13 AM
      I was recruited into the army as a blue (In the halo world of red vs blue...duh) All i remember is going on some crazy mission to fight the reds, the leader of which turned out to be a class mate of mine. He was probably the only smart one but even so there were far to many idiot reds and blues for him to handle. I ended up just saying screw it, i have know idea whats going on, and just doing what ever Church said to do. All i remember after that id explosions and running and Caboose yelling, who in my dream is like my best friend (Even though Church is his Best friend...whom which we stalk together at one point...idk) This does not surprise me because Caboose is my favorite character. Anyway it was fun.
    4. you

      by , 03-20-2012 at 03:05 AM
      yesterday i dreamed about you, yeah ...again but this time I was at the farm, claudias farm
      Im not sure of why you appeared over there, but i was really really happy that i saw you.
      So i was visiting your house, idk what neighbourhood was it, but it was enar the metro.
      I went with my mom,aunt and sister, in a white van. your mom opened the door, and i saw your sister, she looked a lot like you but not as perfect. you didn't come to say hi, you just stayed inside the house, we made eye contact from a distance and i was feeling angry with you. So i decided to play the part where it was me the one who ignored you.

      It felt good, to be the one that was being chased, to be the one that didnt care, to be the one that faked his feelings, and i noticed that you were trying to win my attention, by looking at me and playing with that lovely hair of yours. But sisnce you didnt bother to come over to me i left and went for something to eat at a restaurant near by. it was really selfish of me...i should have spent this time with you, i know it was only in my dreams, but one thing is for sure, anything you feel in a dream, it feels for real.

      i ordered a slice of pizza, you passed by me like asking for some but i ignored you, and it killed me.
      just know that i really love you and i wouldnt act like this in real life.

    5. Gameboy Color

      by , 03-20-2012 at 02:21 AM
      1. I am in a store. It looks futuristic like. It is a video game shop. I look around and notice the gameboy color. I've always wanted one but never got around to buying one. I looked at the price. It said 17.50. It was pink and a little more rounded with it's corner. I go to buy it and my mom and dad come in. I tell them I'm going to buy it and mom waits in line with me and pays for it.

    6. 03/18/12 Flying snake and the Sputnick Harley WILD

      by , 03-20-2012 at 01:04 AM (Cities in the Astral)
      LD 33 as of 02-17-12. Awesome WILD with Shape Change, Advanced Flight, Teleport, Sex with Movie Stars, and more. Worth glancing at. This was my 6th WILD attempt and the second successful one for the night. I spent 11.5 hours in bed all totalled. I already had 10 hours in bed trying WILDs and had 1 LD, so I almost gave up. Man, one last try. I went back to bed and chanted the mantra "flying snake" to myself. I hit SP in only 3-4 minutes and instantly could feel my dream body. All sort of HIs appeared like swirling clouds of smoke. I examined my body using my hands but could not see it. I needed to wait for this all to develop. I kept scratching my fore arms to stay stable and casually watched HIs. After another 2 minutes or so I decided to try blind transformation. I had wanted to be an Aztec Flying Serpent. I could not see a body, but felt it very clearly. I felt myself change and before long was experimenting with my new flying snake body. I really felt my long tail and could cold and slither. I actually tried flying and could feel motion and inertia.
      I transformed back to human and the visuals had begun to develop but were vauge. I spent a couple minutes feeling myself and watching my hands while climbiing a ladder and a rope. I came to a platform blocking my way and it felt very real. I had to climb around it. I decided that, that was real dream stuff so I may as well get the fun moving along. I now had normal dream visuals. This dream went on for about 45 minutes total, not including all the intro warm up stuff I just mentioned.. I was in bed for 1 and 1/2 hours. So, I will just hit the high points.
      I transformed into the flying snake and flew around exploring above a forest for a few minutes. I felt exactly like a snake and nothing like a human. I got up real high and dove, but the body would kind of flap behind me and I had to spiral down. I tried this about 3 times and was not satisfied. I was getting tired of fying way back up there, so I started looking up at a cloud and then teleport my snake self to the top of it and reapet that again. This let me get crazy high, like many thousand feet. This dive was awesome. I had figured out how to move and do stunts. It took forever to actually reach ground. I would be diving and then flex and do a loop and rolls. I was going very fast and the ground approached. I tried to pull gracefully out of the dive, but ended up slamming into the peaty forest floor! What the heck? Grrrr.
      I get up and brush myself off. Ok, the flying serpant thing is pretty complete. What now? The challenge thread had 'interact with a DC as a task. I walked around a hill side and run into a woman. I think sexing it up with a movie star would count, I start talking to the woman and getting cozie, kissing her neck and playing with her hair. I caused her to become a famous singer (Britney) and we fooled around for a good 3 minutes or so. I stopped that because if I did not stablize I was going to loose lucidity. I went through another stablizing sequence.
      What now? I tried to think about the challenge thread, and remember what else was on it, but it was a total blur. I remembered that there is a challenge of the year thread. I could only come up with the Sputnick challenge. I decided to get launched into space with Sputnick. I flew up above the hills and circled looking for some sort of base or rocket pad. I did not see anything. There was a building on a hill side and I decided it must be a Russian guard house. I would have a DC take me to the launch site. I walk up to the building and a male guard is there. We talk and he gives me no real help. I decide that a different guard has replaced him. This one is a woman. I hate to be so much of a male here, but I decided Sputnix could wait. I would suduce the woman and then she would want to take me there. I also decided that the gaurd was a famous actress (Jen) and she became that person. I also change her into another actress for awhile, but went back to Jen. I quickly noticed she was more like a doll than a DC, so I told her 'I release all control over you, please act naturally.' She did, she developed a personality and made suggestions and was a very active partner.
      I materialized cloths for her and then for me. Finally I had a plan. jen is not really a gaurd, she is a Russian scientist who wants to let her new boyfriend she the Sputnic launch. I materialized lab coats for both of us. We go through a back door and come out on a launch site. I fly over to the rocket. I grab some fins near the nose of the rocket, but then think fins don't make sense here. I transform the fins into metal hand grips near a service hatch. The count down happens and I ride the rocket. I end up way up in the sky when the thing comes apart and the satalite is released. I had to levitate over to it. I decided that those anteni things would be how you stear it. I sit on the satalite and picture it kind of like a Sputnick Harley. Wow, it was great fun! I could see the earth below and saw Africa and Europe. I flew around very fast and it was like a rocket scooter. I decided to visit a space station. I could see one and drove Sputnick to it and left it with a valet. The space station was basically a casinoe. I spend some time at the buffet. i try a glazed bannanna and it tastes kind of bland. I try to smell it, but can't. I pour a shot of whiskey and try to smell it, it smells barely. I drink it. I practiced Super Speed by moving across parts of the station lightning fast. I did this until I ended up going up the side of the station in a Super Speed Spider climb.
      I decided to dive from space back to earth, but had not found the snake a very good body for that. I transformed into a hawk. I dove and banked and had a blast until I reached the ground. What now? Summoning, I made a giant water trough appear. Elemental I pulled water from out of the air and filled the tub. Telekinisis, I summoned a piture and fancy goblet and manipulated them with TK so that a glass full of water ended up floating over to me. I drank it and decided to take a bath. I enjoy interacting with water in LDs. I finally laid back in the tub and watched the sky. I was hoping to get a real clear view of the moon, but the sky was just pshycodelic clouds and sunsets. At that point I woke up. Dur~45 minutes

    7. It Never Works For Me!

      by , 03-20-2012 at 12:06 AM
      Non-Lucid:
      Oh, wow... I really wish I remembered all the details of the non-lucid part of this dream. I can only remember the part when I was with this boy and his grandfather in Egypt, and we kind of broke into one of the tombs. I can't remember anything else. T_T

      Lucid:
      Then, I "woke" up on my uncle's couch and glanced at the television.
      "Hey, wait...I never fall asleep at my uncle's!"
      After deciding to do an RC for once, I walked up to the television and tried putting my hand through it, then my fingers through my hand. Didn't work.
      "See? This is why I almost never reality check."
      I refused to believe I was awake.
      Sadly, I woke up for real after that.
    8. False Awakening, Wolf Shift, Running, Lucid

      by , 03-19-2012 at 11:46 PM
      This means normal dream
      This means lucid dream
      This means I'm loosing my lucidity
      This means non-dream notes

      ---

      One non-lucid dreamlet that I can not recall.

      It started as a false awakening from the no-recall dreamlet. I swear to God it felt like just any other time I wake up at night, i had no susspisions that it could be a dream. But, I decided that would do a few RCs. I did a finger-through-hand RC under my covers, which was a mistake, and it 'checked out'. But, I remembered that nose-plug is the most reliable RC, so I did one. I thought that I had done it wrong, because I could breath. So, I reajusted my fingers and tried again... I could breathe! It was a dream and I was lucid as all get-go! Let me tell you, I was happy. Very happy. To double check I watched myself take my finger and push it through my hand, a successful finger-through-hand RC, which I had never done.

      I got out of bed and went to the steps to walk to the ground level of my house where the dream was taking place. The dream was fuzzy and unclear, but the more I walked the better it became. Half-way down I was confronted by a middle-aged black man whom I felt was of some relation to my mother. It shocked me for a second, but I remembered it was a dream and that as far as the NPCs were concerned I was meant to be in bed asleep. "I forgot to wash my gym clothes." I told the man, as excuse to why I was up. This was true in real life, so it felt like the best excuse.

      The man accepted this wordlessly and left me alone. I continued to descend into the dining room and cross into the living room so I could leave through the front door. I really didn't want to command a location change, so just going into my yard to do some practice stunts felt logical. I went outside and saw two NPC men in a car buzzing by my house. The driver stared at me, dumbfounded, almost as if he knew I was lucid and that it was a big deal, then sped off like a criminal from a crime scene. I shrugged it off. NPCs and their crazy antics, and all.

      I crept to the side of my house that faces the back yard of two other homes, trying to think of what to try and do that would have a minimum risk of breaking the dream. Last time I lucid dreamed had tried to fly from a running start and only managed to get three inhuman jumps in before face-planting and bursting the dream. I ended up settling on shapeshifting into a wolf, something I love to do in nonlucid dreams that I figured would be even better with lucid control.

      I got onto my hands and knees, in the wet grass and the dark night, and thought "I will be a wolf now." It was only semi successful, in the fact that I was now slowly and unnoticeable trading myself for my wolf self, a still disappointing result. I suddenly felt so bare, so watched by the closeness of the houses around me, I couldn't even focus on trying to fully shift again. I control was slipping away, though I was ignorant to that fact at the time. I was becoming more instinctual and less logical from both lack of dream control and my slow, seeping transformation.

      I crawled to the back of my house between the heater and the shed, the only spot in the entire yard with three walls of privacy. Settled, and more sheltered, I tried to fully shift again and as I did
      I saw a flash. I was losing my lucidity, but my curiosity took over and I forgot to try and regain it as I scanned the area for the flash's source. Another flash. Another. And yet another. They were blinding.

      I located the source of them quite quickly; a motion sensor, still mounted camera pointed at me. I was not sure how wolf I was, or how clothed I was for that matter, but, I did not want it on film! I grabbed the camera, ludidity and logic gone, and began gnawing on the lens to no avail. I threw the camera on the ground, smashing it over and over. I ripped the roll of loose film from the camera's smashed hull and looked around as the people in the houses stirred to life. Film in hand (claw?) I started to run away in a fluid four-legged lope, scared of being caught.

      I was full wolf now, and had lost my grasp on the film, leaving it behind. It didn't matter. They were after me.

      I felt so fast, but never nearly fast enough. I hid under the portable classrooms in the school yard, every time I saw a pair of feet passing by my hiding spot I would bolt from under and be running again. Somewhere along the lines I switched from wolf to cougar. Some older man, I could almost smell the faulty small-town political status on him, was having some people push together two stone slabs together in front of the school. A place to put my body after he killed me, he boasted.

      I grew panickier, and raced into a basketball court full of students. I felt as if I knew one of the boys there, and he seemed to know me too. Still, in this form it failed to matter. I lept over the chain-link fences, using my hind legs to springboard from the top. The boy pursued me as I raced into the woods, a wolf again.

      Free. Not free enough. I ran through the forest, past a van full of more people I thought I knew and that knew me too. I felt my humanism tugging at my wolf skin, ripping it away. I dove into a ditch, claw hands pulling a thatched mat over me. I was safe, warm, human. And stark naked.

      There was a scrap of paper, covered in doodles, in the ditch that I clutched to myself. I was human now and I was safe in my thatch. That was all the mattered.
    9. 03/18/12 Super Strength WILD

      by , 03-19-2012 at 11:37 PM (Cities in the Astral)
      LD32 as of 02-17-12, Four failed WILDs before this one. I reach SP and this time as I try to feel a dream body I can feel myself move. I do a stabilization blind. I can only see HIs but I manage to solidify a great dream body. I just start walking through the swirling colors. I screw around doing all sorts of motions like dancing around and running. I finally come to a formed scene. It is like a English village where you may see Little Bo Peep. I spider climb up a lerge stone chimney.
      What had I planned on doing? I remember the challenge thread on Dream Views, probably something to do with that. I am tripping out on the tectures of the stones of the chimney. The are moving and changing. One stone comes off in my hand. Super Strength, that was one of the things I was going to do. I started tearing large stones out of the chimney. I pulled the whole front off the chimney. I climbed on top of the building. There was construction stuff around, so I saw a box of stone tiles and lifted it easily with one hand. I lifted it high with just finger strength and then casually threw it way out into the village. Not good enough; I looked for anything heavier. A pallet full of bricks or tiles was there. I picked it up withone hand and flung it off the roof.
      I went too long without stablizing, and something woke me up. Dur~8 minutes

    10. Fragments

      by , 03-19-2012 at 09:56 PM
      Hmmm... where did these ones start x.x....

      I don't think i can do any kind of order so...

      One dream I was watching a sea-flying bird, it seemed to be looking for some fish to eat in these large crevices where the ocean met the cliffs. As me, and a group of people nearby watched, the bird seemed to have messed up, because it seemed to have gotten stuck when a wave banged up against the side wall, it floundered under the water. After a few moments, it got out of the water, flew up the side and stood on top of the rock seemingly gathering itself.

      There was a battle on top of one of the high-rises, with guns n such. There seemed to be 3 buildings, of which they came from 2, I pretty much guared the top of mine..... was pretty much a slaughter of them. I remember at the end I was standing at the top I heard a voice of the maynd from the show i'd been watching, apparently she was taking some creatures and moving them somehwere they were allowed to be.

      I recall running through rooms as a large.... oversized boar shaped creature.... that had head shapped like an aligator in terms of long jawed, snapping at me and a few people ahead of me as we ran from it. I recalled having gone through it..... so I stopped and decided to see what it would look like if it ate me..... it was very "dead space" ish if you know what I mean. I remember thinking how funny it was that it couldn't eat my ass fast enough.

      I'm pretty sure I recall the parking structure again.... I'm starting to wonder if i should just use my locations as entry-ways... the structure has tons of cars..... yay i just remembered another bit of my dream

      I recall stealing one of what seemed to be a pair of mean cars.... and randomly its owner caught up to me. I remember he asked me about it so I was like "let me show you how its not yours" i went to to the other side of the vehicle, and grabbed a spray can i had down there, and turn around to blast him in the eyes with it XD.... to which I remember talking to another dc about how.... i'd trapped him inside of the can as opposed to just spraying him with it lol.
    11. Old Friends/Aussies

      by , 03-19-2012 at 08:06 PM (Raspberry's Second Life)
      Awake Non-lucid Semi-lucid Lucid

      Attempt:

      I went to bed at 9:30 (early I know, but I'm sick and had nothing better to do) having read The Final Empire for an hour. I had set my alarm for 3:30, however I couldn't sleep again for the second night in a row. After two hours of tossing and turning I read again and fell asleep shortly after that. I woke at 7:15, but went back to bed half an hour later. I woke up at hourly periods after that, up until 11.

      Dreams:

      Old Friends

      I am in the shelter at school. It's a gorgeous, sunny day which I'm taking full advantage of, until the Rector strides over. He stops at the floor to ceiling glass wall which shows a staircase, and several sleeping girls beneath it. I gasp as he pushes in a glass pane, which swings open, and expect the whole thing to come down, which it doesn't. The girls slowly awaken, groaning and stretching, lifting their heads from their schools bags which they'd used as pillows. I recognise one as my old friend Sarah. She snaps at the Rector - which is quite unlike her - and he leaves.

      I notice that Sarah doesn't look herself; she has light blonde hair instead of it's usual bright red and pairs this with a pair of dark, smokey eyes and an air of confidence she doesn't usually possess. She jumps up, grabs her bag and rushes out with a "bye guys!"

      I turn my head to find I'm sitting on the ground in a circle with a group of friends. "Is it just me, or is something different about her?" I ask. They nod in agreement.


      Aussies

      F opens the door to the Asda freezer and peers inside. "What's in there?" I ask. He smirks, as if it should be obvious. He grabs a bag of frozen vegetables and waves them in my face before putting them back and slamming the door. I wander off to the end of the store, where there's a line of vending machines. As I think about what sugar filled, carbonated drink I want, it unexpectedly churns out a dark bottle of Vimto. Ew, I hate Vimto. I pick it up gingerly, placing it on the nearest counter.

      As I feared, a shop assistant rushes up to me and demands to know whether or not I paid for it. I explain that it just dropped out F shouts over to me that he wants a Coke Zero. Well he can get it him bloody self.

      I remember that my dad had sent me to to supposedly buy a car. That's strange, a car? I'm not even old enough to drive yet... But I find a till and ask to see their cars. I feel quite stupid considering Asda don't even sell cars, but the man surprises me by leading the way out. I recognise a girl following us that I knew from primary school, she notices me and smiles, telling me she wants to buy a Ford.

      Out in the car park, I glance around awkwardly for a small, cheap one. It's not exactly hard since they all look rather old and run-down.

      Under the shelter of the walkway, I notice Andrea waving her arms wildly and beckoning me over. She points to a large group of boys in sunglasses and beach shorts. What..? One of the boys turns round and grins at me. I recognise him as Alex
      (Dark_Merlin) . I run and jump on him, giving him a tight hug, excited to see him. He's taller than what I expected. "What are you doing here!?"

      He says something I don't quite catch. He's brought a lot of friends with him and they're all talking at once. God, was his accent always that strong? "I can't make out what you're saying..." I tell him, frowning in frustration. One of his friends announce that they want to go to Starbucks, so we set off walking.
      I find it difficult to believe that they're here on holiday, and the confusion makes me faintly believe that it's a dream, although it doesn't register. I babble nonsense to Alex, and start to feel like I'm annoying everyone with my constant stream of chatter.

      It's very, very hot and I try to fan myself in order to cool down. An Australian girl with dark hair and really badly applied purple eyeshadow rolls her eyes at me. What a charmer.

      We stop outside what I thought to be a holiday inn but is now a cafe. I stare at it for a few moments in shock. "I did not know this was here. Since when was this here?" I splutter to Andrea, who sits on the grassy bank and is looking really rather tanned. I sit beside her, and a blonde boy from the group joins us. He and Andrea already appear to be acquainted.

      "How many boys have you...?" He winks. What, sex with? A blunt question.

      "None." I reply, rolling my head back to face the warmth of the sun.

      "No," he chuckles. "Liked."

      "Ah... now that's a different story." I say, smiling faintly at the boys. Andrea giggles beside me. But I'm so hot it's getting to the point where sweat's starting to run down my face, so I decide to head home for a change of clothing.

      The Australian girl smirks and says "what, can't handle a bit of heat? You're so full of yourself. I bet you're going home to slap on some makeup so you can get in someones pants."

      Who the hell is this girl? Didn't she hear what I just said? Alex has some pretty bitchy friends, it seems.

      "No, I'm going home to change because I feel like I'm melting. You might be used to this heat, but I'm from Scotland, remember? It isn't usually like this. I'll run home, and won't be long."

      Alex nods at this, seemingly amused by our little spat. The girl sulks and crosses her arms.

      I run home, faster than what's possible. When I get home I find it's night, which confuses me. I open the blinds in my bedroom to see next door's having a party, fireworks and BBQ included.

      Night time? I bet they didn't even wait on me! I look at my phone to see a couple of missed calls from Alex. Since when did he have my number? I run outside, planning on running back to Starbucks. I get to the park nearest to my house and see a ghostly woman in a floaty, shapeless white dress floating in the air, a shocked expression on her face.

      I sigh. Another distraction, Alex must be getting really pissed off with me. "I know this is a dream, but this is ridiculous." I tell the ghost woman.


      I pause, thinking about what I just said. A dream... A dream! Of course I'm dreaming! I feel like face-palming over how long it took me to realise. I should have known as soon as I saw Alex in the Asda car park.

      I stick my finger through my palm and cheer in excitement. It's been ages since I've had a lucid dream. I rub my hands together, but it doesn't do much. I run to the nearest tree - amber coloured leaves like in autumn - and try to see as many details as possible. They start swooping in and out, as if the world is tilting, so I can't get a good look at them.

      Alex appears from behind a tree and comes over. I'm about to speak to him, but I wake up.


      Tonight I plan on reading until I feel really tired (reading in bed usually puts me straight to sleep) and then set my alarm that way, so I can do a proper MILD tonight. I figured it's time to start LDing again

    12. Random Dreams and Strange Chanting

      by , 03-19-2012 at 08:02 PM (Chronicles of the Cosmos)
      I had several random dreams last night / this morning and they weren't very interesting. However, as I awoke from the last dream this morning, I heard the strangest sounds.... Like a low, mumbling chant of sorts. I thought that was kinda cool, lol.

    13. Ophelia the Pirate and St. Michael

      by , 03-19-2012 at 07:39 PM (Ophelia's Book O' Fun II)
      Woohoo, broke my dry spell!! Well, sorta. They were brief, mini-lucids. But I credit lower stress and better sleep to my new health regimen. As usual, it was after 7am when I got Chris back to school, and I went back to sleep to try to DEILD. The supplements were making me a little to awake, so I wasn't sure if I could get back to sleep but I finally did.

      Three times in a row I went to sleep and never lost awareness. They weren't even DEILDs this time, just a bunch of mini-WILDS. After a loong WBTB (sorry for all the acronyms, I've been studying ). So each time, I opened my eyes in bed, and realized immediately I was lucid. So I hopped out of bed, and went immediately to the bedroom door to begin my journey. But I felt sooo sluggish. I couldn't even open one of my eyes. Before I could even get to the door, my lucidity faded back to awakeness. Really smooth transitions though. It happened 2 more times, and each time I tried to get to the door faster, push through the sluggishness harder, but same ending. I realized well after I woke up, that I should have done the opposite: relaxed, look at my hands, slowly go to the mirror. Oh yeah, in one of them I looked in the mirror on our dresser, but it was too dark to see my face. Oh well, I'm happy nevertheless. I had some FAs too, where I though my cell was vibrating, and I kept checking the time.

      Anyway, in the non-lucid, it was present day, but we all lived with my parents, along with my childhood best friend's older brother, Michael. Only he was still a teenager. He was living with us because (just like IRL), he was getting into alot of trouble. Even been in jail. The weird thing though, oh yeah, besides the fact that I was pregnant again and due any minute, was the fact that the last time Michael had gone to jail, some kid karate chopped a thick nerve on the back of his neck. You could actually see it (looked more like a tendon), broken under the skin. This severed nerve caused a phobia of the dark for him. Long story short, my mom and Danny's kids took Michael to the hospital to get the nerve fixed, while my step-dad and Chris stayed to take me to the hospital in case I went into labor. The last part of the dream was me fighting with my son, Chris. I was calling him over to tell him thank you for deciding to be one of the ones to stay with me. But he was being a tool. He finally walked over to me, but I gave him the hand. "No no, nevermind. I was just going to thank you for staying." "But mom.." "NEVERMIND." "Waaah."

      The End.
    14. Fragments And Sensing Energy

      by , 03-19-2012 at 07:20 PM
      Dream Fragment - I was at a Target-like store with D and my European History AP teacher from high school, and we were locked in some battle over who would get some random girl DC as their wife, "based on some doubles/singles Ed, Edd n Eddy setup", I have no idea what that last note means. Don't remember much else, it was pretty weird....

      Dream Fragment - This one there was definitely more to, but I didn't wake up all the way from it and it was hazy even when I did, so it's pretty much lost. But what I do remember is that the whole time there was a very emotional feel to it, and I spent a lot of the dream talking to a girl, in whom I could clearly sense Linkzelda41's energy.

      Dream Fragment - "Hanging out with M and N, shopping on ecstasy and sort of freaking out."

      False Awakening - I woke up and walked to the window and looked outside and was super excited to see the ground covered in snow. Somehow, I had a feeling it would be, too, even though the weather in waking life is nothing like that.
    15. 3-19-12, Finally a night I don't feel like I'm struggling to remember

      by , 03-19-2012 at 06:48 PM
      Of course I have fragments that I can barely remember about the dreams, but I actually had a lot of dreams and can remember two in really good detail... and one of them I was Lucid for the second time! It wasn't impressive because I was significantly less confident this time around, lol.

      Dream One (Fragment): I was fighting, with a sword, I think practice fighting though, not a serious battle. I'm pretty sure that sword was a Zanpakuto, and my opponent was Ichigo, lol. Don't remember anything specific about the fight though.

      Dream Two (Fragment): I was on a road trip with my grandma. We were talking, and I could see the mountains out the car windows.

      Dream Three: My mother in law had a little pet pot belly pig. We wanted to take a nap, but we had to put the pig in a cage or something first so that it wouldn't get hurt or make a mess while we all slept. We put it in a plastic tote, and my MIL said it needed water. So we started to water it, but end up filling the whole tote with water and it's little snout just barely extended over the water if it raised it's head. We freaked out and drained the water out, and put in a little dish of water instead. When the pig had water and was contained, I was ready for a nap, but my MIL said we couldn't sleep because we had to watch the pig. I asked her how she planned to sleep at all if she had to watch the pig 24 hours a day, and she seemed bewildered for a moment, but I woke up before she could give me a solution!

      Dream Four: My friend was buying a new house, and it was like a sims game, complete with the drop down premade houses and green squares, lol. The house changed several times before it made my friend, her grandmother, and me all happy.

      Dream Five (LUCID!): The dream starts off with me and my kids visiting my cousin. My kids wander off to the back of her house and I have to go back and run them out of her daughter's room telling them it's rude to go into someone's room without being invited. Then I see the neighbors daughter walking into my cousins room and I run her out, briefly wandering how she got all the way over to my cousin's house and if I'm supposed to be watching her. Then there's a broken candy dish that's filled with melted chocolate and I can't help but think, "Mmm Chocolate!" ha ha ha. Then my daughter has to go to the bathroom. I take her to the potty, and notice that my cousin has the same bathing suit I just bought, and I wonder if it looks better on her than me. Then I notice the bathroom has a microwave and a mini fridge in it. I think for a moment that's weird, but I bet this whole area could be a little apartment. Then my logic finally kicks in, "Wait, There can't be a kitchen in the bathroom! That's too weird, I must be dreaming!" To test that theory, I run towards the counter and jump over it in a single bound, landing in the middle of my cousin's living room. I think for a moment, I shouldn't have left my daughter alone! Then I realize, I'm in a dream, she's not my daughter, it's just a dream character and it won't get hurt, it'll just disappear! I decide I'm going to leave, being at my cousins house is pretty boring and I want to do something cool. I walk towards the door, with no destination in mind, and think I'm going to just walk through the door since I walked through a wall in my first lucid. Then self doubt kicks in, and I think, "But I don't know where I want to go, what it if doesn't work this time?" and of course I smack into the door face first, ha ha. The I try to just open the door, and it's locked and I can't get it open either. I stop to think for a moment and I'm finding that even though I know I'm dreaming and lucid, my mind is pretty blank on what to do, it seems harder to think, ha ha. So I recall confronting my husband in the last dream, and think maybe I need to tell someone I'm in a dream for the control to work properly and the door to open to let me out. I look at my cousin and tell her something like, "This is a dream, your just a dream character and I'm getting out of here." Then my cousin morphs into a MAN with a pointy face and small slit like squinty eyes, and he replies, "How so you plan to get out of here? None of my escapes have worked. You can't make a portal, you can't walk through the door, you can't even open it! You don't know how to teleport do you?" I get annoyed and feel like he's trying to keep me trapped. So I tell him flat out, "I'm going to close my eyes and spin, and I'm going to imagine the scene changing around me." So I close my eyes, and notice instead of seeing black I see gray, and I start spinning imaging the floor being tatami and apparently Renji from Bleach laying on it, ha ha. But then after three spins I get dizzy and fall over landing on top of Renji, but the room still hasn't changed! I stand up and dust myself off, Renji asks me if I'm ok, and I say yeah, but the pointy faced guy is still looking at me and laughing like he thinks it's sooo funny that I'm having all this trouble with my dream control. Frustrated I ball up my fists and decide to try the back door, maybe it'll open. Renji jumps up behind me and yells to me to wait up, but I'm ignoring him because I didn't mean to drag him into this dream anyways. I reach out and grab the door, and it's opening and there's a white light spilling into the room that I didn't even realize was so dark. I'm glad I'm finally getting out of this weird house! But I end up waking up before the door opens all the way!

      Dream Six (Fragments): I'm in a car driving through the country, seeing mountains in the distance. There's a house that someone tells me was in a TV show or something. We pull up to it, and they're filming a cop drama, but all the actors and actresses playing the cops have weird hair and make up. Their hair is shades of dark plumb, forest green, royal blue, and blonde and black. Their makeup reminds me of a rock band, like maybe Kiss or something from the 80's with Stars and stuff around their eyes in the same colors are their hair. They're also covered in colored glitter and glittery clothes, glitter right down to their fingernail polish! It's so crazy and extravagant, I wonder how this could possibly have good ratings!

      Dream Seven: I'm at my Grandma W's house (she actually died in '05) and she's going to watch the kids while my husband and I go to Walmart. We're going down the hill to the car, and I notice the neighbors kids are playing basketball at my Grandma's house. They are far from home, lol. I climb in the car, but my husband starts driving before I can even get my MP3 player out of my pocket and get buckled in, or even close my door! I yell at him to wait a minute, and he tells me to stop taking so damn long. I counter that I don't even have my seat belt on, and he argues that I'm being slow and pulls forwards. The door closes, pinning my leg against the seat in a very uncomfortable fashion and I yell at him to stop the f-ing car. I fling the door open to get my leg unpinned, and he yells at me to just get out of the car he'd go by himself. I do and slam the door about to cry. I walk past the neighbors kids, then realize I'm in a housecoat and pajamas and I feel like everything's falling off. I am really embarrassed and run to the front porch and sit on the swing. I cry for a few minutes about getting kicked out of the car and about my clothes falling off and being embarrassed that everyone saw it all. Then my grandma is on the porch, coming out of the shadows and scaring the crap out of me! She tells me to relax, It's all ok, no one will remember any of it in the morning. I nod, and decide to go ask my son if he wants to play outside. I yell at the neighbors kids if they will be out for long and if we could come out and play too (my kids a lot younger so they can't play as rough with him as when it's just them) they tell us to come on out, so I go inside to get changed. My son is at the computer, and I ask him if he wants to play outside with the big kids. He refuses, and I feel frustrated because he'd getting so fat playing computer and video games all day and not outside! I wake up.

      Dream Eight (fragment): We're at a hotel, at the end of an Anime Con. A friend of mine has a room beside ours connected by a door. He's already turned in his key at Check out and asks us if he can borrow our key because he forgot something in his room. We let him, and I start freaking out that we need to pack and get out of the room before we charged for another night. My husband just wants to lazy about and not do it, so I'm packing it all up by myself and feeling so desperate that I'm not going to get done in time. I even start crying.

      Dream Nine: I'm looking at skin, I'm not sure if it's my hand or someone else's skin. There are these little dark spots on the skin, and looking closer I can see they're wiggling. They're bugs swimming under the flesh. It's really gross and creepy and I wake up.
