    1. Dream Recap

      by , 03-03-2012 at 02:24 AM (Exploring My Imagination)
      March 2, 2012
      So I havent been totally on top of my dream journaling lately. I decided today that I should get something down so I don't lose my motivation completely. Here are just a few highlights of some dreams I had over the past week or so:

      1) This dream began with me going to school. On my way out I noticed some friends a few doors down. I went over there. The rest of the dream involved me hanging out there and suddenly there were fairies. We had to get rid of them- they were very mean. At the end I was in their house alone and I went all vampire-like and ran superspeed up to the fairy trying to scare it.

      2) This dream was pretty strange. In the beginning I was cutting dresses out in my room with some device. I believe I was making prom dresses. For some reason a guy that I hardly know from school is camped out in the middle of my room- between mine and my sister's beds. Apparently he had been living there for a while. Later on I ended up giving him a tuxedo. Towards the end he ended up having a sleepover with a friend of his under my bed o.O.

      That's pretty much it. I had a few more but I never wrote them down so the details are fuzzy and scattered. Tonight I hope to use my dream inducer app since I had my first lucid dream the night I used it

      Odd things happen when you're only barely lucid.


      I am a wolf, running through the local forest.
      I run aimlessly as I have no goal.
      I just enjoy the night and the fresh air.



      The wind is rushing through my fur, it feels great.
      The forest is mine.

      I decide to take a small break once I encounter a river.
      I help myself to some water. It is cold and fresh.
      It feels just right after the long run.

      I look up to the stars. They seem much brighter than usual.
      I decide this is a good moment to heighten my awareness.
      Something doesn't seem right, I better RC.

      This proves to be a rather complicated task, because I cannot quite figure out how to plug my nose with a paw.
      Wait...


      -_-

      My body starts to morph back into my human form.
      I plug my nose and try to breathe which works.
      I'm not really sure why I even tried though, I am fully aware that I am dreaming now after all.

      I rub my hands and take a look around.
      As I turn the scene smoothly changes and I find myself in the city.
      Well... that was weird. That doesn't usually happen, does it?

      People passing me look at me in an odd way.
      I ignore them. DC's sometimes act weird when I become lucid, I don't really care though.
      I try to remember if I have set myself any goals.
      What is the current Totm?
      ...
      I can't remember.

      I notice people are now pointing fingers at me.
      What?
      I realize that I appear to be fully naked.
      Well, I guess that's why.

      I concentrate on a hill outside of the city, which is just in range of my view.
      I blink towards it, which requires a surprising amount of concentration.
      I arrive within a split second.

      Aah, much better!
      I rub my hands again because I feel like my senses aren't fully there.
      I think about calling out to Faye because my dream doesn't seem very stable.
      Maybe she can help.

      But then I am surprised by a pony jumping by:


      Huh? What is Pinkie Pie... wait...

      "Faye????"
      "Yes?"
      "Why are you a pony?"
      "Weeeeeeeee"

      She keeps bouncing.
      I consider that I might actually be full on insane.

      "Faye, stop bouncing around and help me!"
      "Wat?"
      "Oye, you always say you're my dream guide. Do dream guide stuff."
      "Hmm, as your dream guide I should probably point something out in this situation."
      "Yes?"
      "Your penis is visible sir."
      "My..."

      Yeah, I'm still naked...
      Faye finds this very amusing.
      I summon myself some clothes, which I am surprised that it works because the dream doesn't seems very stable.
      In the meantime Faye has transformed herself into a woman.
      I am sure I've seen her before, but I can't seem to figure out who she transformed herself into.

      "I can't seem to stabilize the dream."
      "There is no need."
      "Huh? why not?"

      The scene suddenly turns dark... crap.
      Fortunately I think about keeping my eyes closed and try to DEILD.
      I am convinced I am waking up...

      ... I can hear something. For some reason I think that someone in the house must have dropped something.
      I feel a tingling sensation all over my body and I drift back into the dream...


      ... I am now lying on... on a cloud?
      I sit up, Faye is sitting next to me.
      We're indeed sitting on a small cloud hovering maybe 50 meters over the ground.
      I realize my DEILD was highly successful and say

      "Fuck Yeah!"
      "FUUUUUUUUUUCK YEAH!!!"

      People below as look up at Faye confused.
      I have to laugh out loud.

      "Haha, dreams are fun!"
      "Weeee"

      The cloud makes a comical noise as it moves us along.
      The dream somehow feels more stable now.
      For some reason I get the sudden urge to fly so I drop off the cloud and start flying forwards.
      Faye immediately catches up.
      She gives me a rather competitive smile.
      Right on!

      I summon my dragon wings and accelerate hard.
      I immediately break the sound barrier and oh boy it hurts... in a good way though.
      My entire body is vibrating under the extreme pressure of going so fast.
      The noise is deafening.
      Faye keeps catching up and I go faster and faster.
      Mountains rush by.

      Then I notice something in the distance and slow down.

      It's Stonehenge!
      I go subsonic and land on the ground, still sliding a good 500 meters before I come to a stop.
      I am now directly in front of Stonehenge.

      How curious, I seem to get drawn to this place occasionally.
      I look around to see if anyone else is here, but it appears empty except for an old man who is...
      Wtf... -_-
      He is combing the grass... with a comb...

      I wake up.
    3. So real yet so wrong

      by , 03-03-2012 at 12:53 AM
      My first two lucid dreams were rather vague and didn't really last particularly long (the 2nd lasting less than 5 seconds). However the 3rd seemed to the most vivid and interesting. It was also my first successful attempt at a MILD.

      LUCID
      I'm standing in my room at home when i suddenly become lucid and immediately forget what previously had occurred in the dream, however this did not bother me. I had gone to bed repeating to myself that i was going to RC, and it worked! My usual RC is to look at my hands and count my fingers. 6 as per usual when i'm dreaming (even though i know instantly that its a dream, i still have to slowly count each one to make sure). My heart began to race at it previously had done in other LDs and i try to calm it by taking deep breathes and focusing on a wooden table in the corner of the room. I look at the grains the surface and follow each line. They seem to be so vibrant in contrast to the dull wood. However this seems to have no effect and my heart races even faster. My mind drifts and i collapse on the floor into bed (I sleep on a fold out bed). My eyes close and i sit there motionless for about 3 seconds. I was certain that when i opened my eyes that i would be awake, however i was not. I was lying in my bed at home in my room, yet things seemed different.

      I RC again to make sure i was still dreaming. Yup, 6 fingers on my left hand. I felt a lot calmer this time, almost euphoric and light headed. I walked over to my window and open the blinds. As i opened them, i had hoped to see something magical, but nope... just the park that my house backs onto. There were huge pot holes and gaps in the hedge fences, however i seem to just accept them and say that was how the park always was (even when im lucid I managed to stupidly accept somethings T_T haha). I hear voices in the hallway. One is my old man, the other i was not sure of. I remember looking back out the window and saying to myself "This feels so real, it looks insane!". I had never been in such a real feeling dream before. I look in the mirror and see myself with hair very similar to that of Sonny Moore. Again, i seem to just accept this as truth, even though i am dreaming.

      I walk up to the large mirror in my room and look into it intently. I decided that i want to push my way through it. I push it with both my fingers and begin to see the glass bend slightly. Suddenly i feel myself getting pulled in. My head gets sucked in and then suddenly the rest of my body. The whole experience felt extremely weird. As i come out of the other side i fall onto the floor in my hallway (just down from where the mirror was), however this time the dream had a strange blue filter over my eyes. Everything had looked very orange/brown in the previous room, so the change in colour was rather noticeable.

      I awake from the dream in my student bed (almost 2,000 miles away from home) and everything becomes clear as to what happened. It's strange that even though i knew i was in a dream, i still didn't pick up on some of the dream signs. I guess i need to work on my ADA.

      So I try the sleep timer again this morning and I feel myself going into a dream. I'm lying on my bed and suddenly I hear someone charging up the stairs, I shit myself but think "nope, it's just my dream, calm down" I'm now standing up on my bed, something invisible is trying to scratch my face and hurt me but I feel nothing and it seems to go straight through me, I try and hit it but the same happens for me. I now reach up and smash my fist against the ceiling and see a black mark, the thing does the same and leaves the same black mark, I now wake up.

      Last Nights Dream

      I'm in a Hospital, I'm not sure why but I'm ill. I walk down a corridors and come to a room where there is a boy in a wheelchair, I look at him and then I go into a shop, I forget what I go in the shop for and the owner says "what do you want?" I say "ummmmm..you got any of those things for a sore throat?" I see some herbals and a Woman says "what tooth for?" Lol I think "uhhhh!!" and say "the back left" she says "these are what you want" and she throws me a packet of herbals.
      I have now gone back to bed but all the beds have disappeared apart from mine, they now bring in lots of baby cribs, people are lying on the floor wrapped up in blankets, these people all have a disease and are all being sick, it's really thick, cheesy like sick all different colours..it's totally gross . I'm walking in sick, I can smell it and it's getting all over me. I see a woman lying on the floor wrapped in a blanket, she is about 40 or so and has beautiful black hair it's in a up-do style, she looks old fashioned and I hold her hand and I say "it's ok, you can go now" she then dies but then comes back to life again, this happens about 4 times before she actually dies. I now look for the boy in the wheelchair, he's sad. I now sit and paint with a red pen which turns black aswell which I find a little odd, he comes but goes again ((the boy in the wheelchair that is)).

    7. Lucid Fragment (February 22, 2012)

      DreamLucidAwake

      I'm really disappointed with myself for not writing this dream until 10 days later. I've forgotten nearly all of what was a great lucid dream.

      Lucid Fragment

      I was in the middle of the ocean on the beach of some island with Claire. She pointed to another island off in the distance. The island was surrounded by dark clouds and had a sinister looking volcano on it. Claire mentioned something about flying us over to that island. So I fully morphed into my dragon form and spread out my wings. Claire then crawled onto my back and wrapped her arms around my neck. When we were ready, I ran down the beach towards the water while flapping my wings. When I got enough speed, I jumped into the air and started flying. It felt great flying over the ocean for some reason. My memory fades here though.

    8. All my dreams to date (since the hijack)

      Since DV was hacked I haven't been able to post my dreams in my dream journal and whatnot. I haven't been able to remember too many, but I will post all of them to date.

      February 22
      Dream Non-lucid
      Nothing much to this dream, although it was super long. It was about me playing Halo with the Creatures in forge mode. We were creating a base for our clan to hang out. When we were done with the building, we hung out in there(lol). It felt super long though, felt like it was about an hour long.

      Dream Non-lucid
      Also a long dream with nothing much to it. I was in my grandmother's blue car with her in it, my grandfather, and my dad. We were all going to Wal-Mart. When we were there, I just lingered around with them, thinking about random crap- but here is where it gets semi-interesting. I had a False Awakening*. I entered it in my Math class, and a guy with a brown clipboard was talking to my teacher. "It seems that whenever a male says "It" in his dreams, well, they say it normally. But when a female says "It" in his dreams, she says it like "Itiss"," The guy with the clipboard said. I immediately said, "I think you have it wrong, I don't remember anything like that and I can remember my dream perfectly." The guy ignored me, and I finally woke up when my friend behind me started saying it as well.

      February 23
      Dream Fragment Non-lucid
      I was running through the forest to get to a blue store in the distance. My whole school was going there because something big was about to happen. I would have gone with the rest of the school, but I was walking through a forest and it was closer just to keep on going.

      Dream Non-lucid
      (Just a side note, this dream is a little bit messed up, and crazy. You have been warned.)
      I was in my first period class, but everyone in there was sitting in the wrong desk. I was on the far left of the classroom. I was bored, so I started observing my hand. I saw small white bumps on them, and my first thought was to touch them. So I did. To my surprise, they weren't actually bumps. They were tiny spikes instead. I continued feeling them, until finally, I wanted them gone. I knew that one of my calluses on my hands would make them go away if I scratched it. So I did, and the way they were removed amazed me. They literally dissolved into my hand. I wanted to see this again, so I scratched the callus again, and watched them reappear. I made the spikes dissolve again, and again, until I was bored of it. I scratched my callus to make the spikes go into my hands, and then a piece of my skin, at the bottom of my writs where the vein is, fell off. I looked at my flesh, and instead of the normal color, it was a dark purple. I wasn't alarmed by this, and I didn't feel any pain. I wanted this skin gone, but yet I didn't want to peel the skin off myself, so I raised my arm and let the air from the AC take the skin of itself. I forgot about it after that, and looked out at the window. When I looked at my arm once again though, it was covered in ruby red blood. My whole desk had blood on it, and was dripping blood off the sides. I put pressure on the wound with my left hand, but it was ineffective. Within seconds, blood was oozing out of the corner of my left hand, and covering my top of my hand. I wasn't scared, not one bit. Actually, I was somewhat amused, but I wanted the bleeding to stop. I stood up to get to my teacher on the right side of the room, but when I stood up, I almost collapsed. It was very hard to stand up, and to walk. But when I did walk, I had to keep my balance on things around me. I got blood all over the objects, and grossed out a couple of my classmates. When I got to my teacher, no words were spoken. I just looked at him, and then left the room. The bell rang, and everyone ran out of the room. I somehow already had my materials, and headed for my locker instead of the nurse. I was still bleeding badly, and it was a pain to put up my books. When I was finished, instead of going to the nurse, I went to the library. There I saw another one of my friends, Dawson. He was looking for a Non Fiction book. I saw him go on the other side of the bookshelf, and say "Aha!" and get out a purple book. I looked down at my arm once again, and I saw that it had stopped bleeding. I let go of my arm and saw that my left hand had nothing on it but dry blood, and same thing for my right arm. I looked up at Dawson again, and saw that he was laughing at the book he had found and now opened. "How am I suppose to read this?!" He said while laughing. I didn't question him, but he turned the book to me and I saw that instead of words, it was braille. Although there were English words above the braille, I didn't say anything about them. I woke up after I thought about the English words.

      February 28
      Dream Fragment Non-lucid
      I was staring at three types of hair styles. One was super long, and very spike, the second one was just like the previous, except for a lot shorter, and the first one was spiky but very short. "This one is too long, this one is too spiky, this one is just right." I said while looking at the pictures of the hair. Yeah...pretty random...

      Dream Fragment Non-lucid
      I don't remember exactly where I was, but I do think I was in a class room. I had "awoken" from a False Awakening, and I started thinking "How did I get here? This might be a dream...I should do a reality check to see if it is real..." So I try to push my finger through my palm. I applied great pressure, and thought that I felt it go through a little bit, but it failed and I thought that I was just imagining things. I decide to do one more: The nose plug trick. I plug my nose with two fingers, in a dream you will still be able to breath out of your nose, but it failed as well. "Oh well, must not be a dream" I said to myself.

      March 1
      Dream Non-lucid
      I start the dream inside of my dad's truck. He was taking me to school. I was looking out of the window, watching the field that was beside of us pass by.The sky was an assortment of colors, making it beautiful. It was orange in the middle with dark blue on the outside, and lighter blue beside that with dots of green. I was thinking about dreams, ad I often do while riding to school. Dream Skip. I was in the 7th grade hallway with two other people I have never saw before. One of the boys, the farthest one from me, wasn't listening to the conversation that me and the other boy, the one close to me, were having. "So...you can be anything you want in your dreams? I have always wanted to see what it would be like to be a Khajiit." The boy closest to me said. I saw him close his eyes and concentrate on something. I guess he was just trying to turn into a Khajiit (obvious sign of me dreaming). I don't know why, but I felt compelled to try it as well. I closed my eyes, and imagined what the Khajiit version of myself would look like, and then I tried to place the features onto myself- inside of my head. I opened my eyes, and nothing had changed. I wasn't surprised because I thought it was reality. I looked over to where the boy I was having a conversation with was standing. He had left. The other boy was gone as well. "Oh well," I thought to myself, and headed to the bathroom. When I entered the bathroom, I saw two of my friends there. Kevin, a tall black-haired boy, and Craig, a tall red-headed boy. "Hey, Dakota," Kevin said. I just waved and went to the nearest urinal. Craig kept on battering me with questions, and finally Kevin said, "Leave him alone so he can take a piss!". I laughed at what he had said. I turned around from the urinal, and I saw some words on my right. I concentrated on what one of the words said; MPH. I took a step and beside the MPH appeared a number. "Cool, a real life HUD!" I thought, and then I woke up.

      March 2
      I was in the cloths section of walmart, just standing there. There were two guys beside me talking about Dragon Ball Z videogames. "I hate what the series has become," Said one of the guys. "Yeah, I do too." agreed the other guy. Next thing that I know, my dad is beside me. He told me to hold this box that was all black. On the box there was a picture of a PS3 and a Xbox 360. There was also some white writing on there. It also had a thin slip of clear paper that said, "Pull here for a chance to win more videogames!" and so I did. Underneath it was just black paint. "Ok..." I said to myself. I carried around the box with me, look at some cloths for some reason, until finally I sat down the box and opened it. Inside were two controllers on white foam, a xbox 360 wireless headset, and two rows of seven video games, but no consoles like the box said. I felt the box that was nearest to me, and surely enough, there was an xbox 360 there. I took out the games and started examining them. God of War, Fallout 3, all of the Dragon Ball Z video games, and some others that I can't remember. "What am I going to do with these things? I am a PC gamer, and I already have a Xbox that I don't play anymore. I guess I could sell these or something," I thought out loud. Some of the copies were Xbox 360, and others were for a PS3. "This this thing should have a PS3 if it came with PS3 games." I thought. So I felt beside of the xbox, and there was a PS3 there. I then woke up.

      Those are my dreams to date. It feels good to be back on the right dreamviews.
    9. Experimental Drugs, Lucid Nature Walk, The Monkey Loop

      by , 03-02-2012 at 06:45 PM
      Two more lucids! The first one was fun, the second one was really interesting but short. Since I've started telling myself to look for Linkzelda41 when going to bed I've also been adding in things like "I will remember my dreams." and "I will become lucid.", so I guess that means I'm not allowed to list them as DILDs anymore. Time to start working up my MILD counter.

      #1 - Experimental Drugs [Non-Lucid]

      This one was short, but interesting. My parents were going out to a party so I'd have the house to myself for the night, and my dad decided to synthesize some brand new psychedelics for me to try while they were gone. :O He managed to sneak me three different drugs, which were named "Kaomea", "Kaomea's lucid", and "carousel". My mom almost caught him doing it though and seemed suspicious for the rest of the dream, during which I was pretty much just waiting for them to leave. I remember that at least one of the drugs looked like a big rock covered in gemstones.... How am I supposed to take that?

      #2 - Lucid Nature Walk [MILD]

      I was at a store looking at Yu-Gi-Oh! cards with D and we meet up with some kid, and I don't remember why but they end up going outside to do a duel to the death (with guns, not a Yu-Gi-Oh! duel lol). The store is also a restaurant run by my old European history AP teacher, so I go over and pay her for the food (which I don't think we had any of...) and also a card I wanted to buy because it had a 5 at the end of one of its stats. :3 (I can't remember if it was ATK or DEF, but no monsters have stats like that.) I went out into the parking lot to watch their duel, and as they were talking I became lucid and the kid became this guy J who I haven't seen since around middle school. I take the card out of my pocket knowing it'll have changed to see what it is now, and it has a 2 at the end of its ATK stat and a 3 at the end of its DEF stat, and it's now an orange. The image on the card is literally just the inside of an orange, and the border of the card looked like the outside of an orange. I laugh and throw it down, and then tell D and J that I wish there were more DCs to talk to. There's a small forest on the edge of the parking lot, so I tell them we're going to go walk through a trail I see. I start yelling commands to become more lucid and have the dream be more vivid, but they kept coming out wrong and confusing me, like one I yelled was "I'm aware that I'm dreaming, but I do not have control." Though, after I said that one it kind of felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. I sat down on the dirt and squeezed it to feel it run through my fingers, it felt awesome. And then I had a great idea! I stripped naked and laid down in the dirt. I knew it was going to be terrible to do this, but I closed my eyes too. It was fun and felt so comfortable. When I opened my eyes I was in a false awakening (and still didn't do a RC! ) where I was still naked and walked into a room where N was sleeping and K was inviting him to go get frozen yogurt with him and S. I told them I'd be coming too as soon as I got dressed, and N started telling me about a dream he was having, then I woke up.

      #3 - The Monkey Loop [MILD]

      After school, D and I are in a cul-de-sac when my car breaks down and we don't have a spare tire. There are some kids goofing around there that don't like us at first but we bond in a weird way (though I don't remember exactly how) and we find a spare tire by the road, but it turns out to be a bike tire. I try calling my dad to come pick us up but my phone never works correctly or he doesn't answer his, and we eventually decide to call the cops as backup to get us home. In the meantime, we see a big house and D accidentally breaks through the front door somehow. That part is hazy. We go inside and I say oh snap, this is S's house! (Even if it was, which it wasn't, the following reaction doesn't make much sense.) We all ran out of the house trying to get away before the cops we called show up, and at some point a gigantic monkey had arrived for one of us to ride, and now a lion was arriving for the other. I grabbed the monkey's reins and jumped on his back and D jumped on the lion, and we said goodbye to the kids and rode off. Suddenly I was riding the monkey through my parents' bedroom, and I became lucid. We went straight from one end of the room to the other and walked through the mirror behind my parents' bed. As soon as we did it looped back to the other end of the room and we got stuck in this infinitely looping cycle. It was really intense at the time, and I started noticing that depending on how I focused my eyes, despite the fact that the mirror was not really in my line of sight, things would repeat infinitely. First I had my eyes focused near me and the monkey's skin and fur was growing closer and closer to me and I was afraid that the dream was going to end, so I focused my eyes away and saw my reflection below, I watched my face multiplying and getting further and further away. That caused the dream to end into a false awakening where D and I realized we had fallen asleep in study hall and school wasn't even over yet. That was quite a ride!

    10. Middle-Aged College/University, Edward from Twilight & Girl's Bedroom

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I slept for 4 hours from around 9PM-1AM, tried to do WBTB that lasted for 20 minutes, and I went to bed attempting a WILD, but failed.

      I wake up around 6-7 AM I believe, didn't remember any dreams, then slept again around 8AM and woke up around 10:45 ish AM and remembered two vivid dreams.

      Dream 1: College/University with Middle Age City Setting

      I'm inside a house somewhere, and I see my mother and father. I think my mother asked if she wanted to go to groceries with us, apparently they're getting some stuff for some kind of party.

      I respond to her that I would have to come with them anyway to help move the cart and pick up heavy stuff for her. She said I didn't have ot come if I didn't want to I believe, so I just head out the door.

      The environment feels so compact, it feels like the type of city where you would know almost everyone because there is so little of them here. It had that home feel to it, it almost resembled the city of Flanoir in the Tales of Symphonia 1 & 2 series.

      Except, it wasn't winter, it was average weather. I think I head outside a little more, and the place feels like the housing had that castle feel to it. I think I go up to a group of DCs to hear them talk about something probably related to college.

      I think they were talking about how some girl is a junior in college, and how she would use some kind of notepad that would give her practice problems for exams in college, and how she would just get A's easily I believe.

      After listening to them more, I think I move somewhere else. I think I wanted to take a few pictures of this area with my Blackberry Curve, but I didn't want to take it with people in it because I didn't want them to think I was being a creep.

      Lucid by jumping on one foot...-blackberry-curve-8330-reviews-2.jpg

      The dream setting starts to gradually turn from day to night, and the whole environment has that middle-age century vibe to it. I feel more comfortable taking more pictures now, and some of them looked pretty nice to me. Some of them had a lot of lighting at dark, and then I was concerned about the flash on the Blackberry Curve.



      I wanted to turn it off, and all I had to do apparently was simply press black button on the side of it, which made the images a little dark, but I didn't mind. I'm probably moving around some random area in this weird city that still feels like I'm in a college/university.

      There's some route that looks abandoned, and I decide to go there, and it leads to this slightly dark area with a bunch of old stuff, but not too much. It was like going inside a cave or something like that.

      I was afraid to go deeper in some parts, and I think someone was saying something that's bad about the area I'm in, and it was most likely just DCs outside that were talking. I try to peek to see what's on the other side of this dungeon/cave like area, and I think I end up going through it to see that it's just dark and nothing bad within it.

      That's all I remember for that one.

      Dream 2: Meeting Edward from Twilight in a Room?

      I can't remember a lot of thing from this dream, but I'm inside a bedroom that has a little yellow-orange lighting to it.

      Everything is first-person perspective for me, and it almost feels like I'm playing Half-Life 2 because I see some stuff like ammo, etc., and I simply walk over them and I hear that sound that your ammo was replenished.



      I go around this room for a while, and I think I see Edward from Twilight in the room for a few seconds. I believe I was talking to him, but I'm not sure what exactly. I do know that I was looking under the bed of this room that seems to be have a girly setting to it.

      I see more stuff underneath this bed and I'm surprised apparently, but I can't remember what was under there.

    11. Escape from a Haunted House Nightmare.

      by , 03-02-2012 at 06:25 PM (Second Reality Experiences)
      A couple of friends and I are in a haunted house.We are on a balcony area when one of my friends is grabbed by something invisible, and thrown into a small closet that's up there. I open the closet and she is bound by shackles and chains. We are told that the only way we can free her is if we go into the house, find a chainsaw, and saw her feet off. I look closely at what are supposed to be her feet and realize they are made of plastic. So I feel better knowing they are "fake" feet. The other girl and I enter the house. Immediately we are terrorized by spirits. I am dragged down a hallway by a woman who has sharp pointed teeth, and my friend is dragged another direction. I am able to break free and I run into a room and find my friend there as well. Apparently she escaped too. The room resembles the master bedroom at my parents' house. That's when we hear this terrible growling screaming noise that consumes the entire room. A window is open and wind blows into the room tossing papers and anything light up into the air. I grab a small rock I find on the ground and throw it at the window.

      "Leave us the f**** alone!" I yell.

      Nothing happens. In fact that only angers it even more. Now I am being shoved and tossed around like a rag doll by this invisible entity. I start screaming. It was actually very frightening.


      At this point I realize I am dreaming. I call out to anything to help me get rid of this thing. I attempt to summon an angel to combat the evil ghost in my dream, but my attempt fails. Strangely enough though, everything stops for a moment and is calm. This is my chance. I run into the bathroom connected with the bedroom. There is an attic hatch on the ceiling. I try to envision it being a portal to another more friendly realm. I open it, and all I can see is water, hovering in place. I jump up inside and start swimming. Everything is dark and murky at first but gets lighter toward the top. When I surface, I am relieved to find I am in a much more welcoming dream. The landscape looks like a tropical fantasy island. Lots of green, with pieces of pink and purple foliage and plant life. Some areas are a bit pixelated like a video game would be. I try to stabilize it to make them more clear but that doesn't remove the pixelation. I decide to let that slide for now. I see a couple of tiny people swimming in the water near the shoreline. They remind me of realistic versions of anime chibi people - kind of like Kingdom Hearts.


      Kind of like this except with bathing suits.

      I swim to the shore and when i stand up I see a little black chibi boy with a small sun tattoo in the shape of a heart on his left cheek. Right before I start to introduce myself to him my roommate wakes me up from the hallway with a huge belch. I am thoroughly pissed.


      I had a dream similar to this with the same creepy invisible ghost who bellows that god-awful unearthly scream in my room at night - a couple nights ago. It was short so I never actually bothered to record it on here. In that dream I could not escape, even though I had become lucid. I was paralyzed and physically incapable of moving out of my bed (or waking up for that matter). Eventually I did...but I have to wonder where this ghost is coming from in my subconscious. The next time it happens I think it would be interesting to confront it to ask what it represents.

    12. 03/01/12 Non Lucid Steering the Bus

      by , 03-02-2012 at 06:13 PM (Cities in the Astral)
      I was heavily sedated on sleep meds, anti-histamines and wine. I am suprissed I had any recall at all. In one scene Rod Stewart was singing from stage directly to my wife. Another, we were on a Bus and the driver was in the back, not at the wheel. I managed to steer around obsticals by shifting my weight. Then we had made it to someones house, but my wife had migraine and wanted to go. We ended up on the wrong side of town and passed the local Kung-fu master, then said hi to an old friend who was outside a house. We finaly went in a house looking for another friend, and were told she was out back.
      Really not an exciting night.

    13. Attempt 1: Giving up

      by , 03-02-2012 at 06:09 PM (Choi's Journey of the Conscious Mind)
      Now when I know a way for me to at least make an attempt to sleep consciously. I am going to share my progress until I succeed again so you can learn as well. I need to follow my progress, but I wont write down my dreams.

      Attempt 1:

      I do this every night, not sure if that's good or bad, I had an extreme headache one day and I thought that it was because of my attempts, but my dad is a dentist and he made a quick diagnosis and the root of the problem was that I was gnashing my teeh in my sleep. So that's good news in a way. I mean it's not the attempt that gave me the headache.

      Falling asleep unconsciously is not the problem right now, which is a big relief. Nothing disturbs me more than doing an attempt and doze of and then have to wait an entire day to make a new attempt...
      But no, now I doze off and allways manage to regain consciousnes and awareness.

      The problem is actually me giving up, and I can never remember why! I just give up in the middle of it.
      My dreams are still vivid so I remember them upon awakening, but I don't recall them anymore, just making sure that my memory is strong enough to remember if I get a lucid dream or not. But now I actually remember about 10 dream scenarios each night, just because it's so vivid. It's odd that I don't get lucid in those weird dreams though, it's almost like being schizophrenic, just observing the actions of another persons life without realising that it isn't real.

      Last night I had a really long dream about me drowning, so it was pretty scary.

      Anyhow for the sake of once again proove to me that entering a dream consciously or experiencing an obe is possible (without prior sleep) I am NOT going to give up this night's attempt!

      At least I hope that I wont...

    14. 3-2-2012, These dreams bored me :/

      by , 03-02-2012 at 06:06 PM
      Some mornings I wake up and think man those dreams lat night were boring. I probably shouldn't have been bored by them because they weren't short on weirdness, but there was just nothing awesome about them, lol. I was so unimpressed by them I didn't bother taking any dream notes. Here's what I can remember off the top of my head.

      Dream One (fragment): I spent the dream walking and driving on muddy roads. At one point someone else was with me and commenting on how there were big lumps of hard dirt on top of the mud. I tell him that someone put those there trying to control the mud. I don't know why the lumps are so hard, they seem unnatural and make it impossible to get over without an SUV. Lucky the dream turned my little car into an SUV!

      Dream Two (Fragment): I was inside a cell shaded Zelda Game. Probably wind waker since it's the only one I've actually played. I'm trying to get into this cave, and I remember equipping the zoran tunic so I could swim under water and then realizing I don't have the iron boots. It's ok, I manage to stand on the bottom of the lake anyways and read something about playing a tune. I climb out of the lake and am looking into a big cave that I decide is the last temple. I realize that if I don't have the iron boots then I haven't done the goron lands yet, so I decide I can't go into this last temple until I do. I notice some arrows and hookshot targets ahead, I know I don't have those either so I can't advance. I turn to leave, but there's someone standing there. He tells me I shouldn't be here, it isn't safe. I'm me again, not link. The person turns to walk away. I start to follow him thinking wait, he's important somehow. I wake up.

      Dream Three: I'm at the lake sitting on the pier/dock. There's someone on a jet ski in front of me. He has a pretty accent of some kind, I just naturally assume he's my moms friend in Scotland that I've never met but looking back he wasn't old so it probably wasn't. He tells me to go back inside the cabin. I tell him I want to stay on the dock. He looks to the right down towards the damn, then looks worried. He looks at me again and says, "I don't want to talk to you anymore." Suddenly I'm really upset, I want to stay and keep talking. I get mad and yell at him, "Well fine! I don't want to talk to you anymore either! Get lost!" He smiles a bitter smile, starts the jet ski and starts going down the river towards the damn. I stomp off towards the cabin. On the hill that leads up to it, there's an elegant white horse, if memory serves me right it had a horn as well, so a unicorn not a horse. I stop as I walk by to pet it and rub my head against it's neck. It wraps it's head around me kind of like a hug and rubs me with it's head reassuringly, and I feel a good deal better. I feel like everything's ok, and I start walking back up to the cabin. I get inside the cabin and my husband is pointing to a tiny cage with lots of bird packed into it. He tells me my cousins left it for me. They heard I was good with Animals and hoped I could take care of them for a while. I shrug and say lets put them in a bigger cage, this one's too small for that many birds. We set the smaller cage inside a bigger one, then I go out onto the sun porch of the cabin. I hear a lot of ruckus out on the lake, and look out to see whats going on. I see the person on the jet ski from before, he's chasing several black jet skis. He's shouting at them that he has something, and they turn on him. He turns the jet ski so fast it spins in place and I wonder if he's going to roll it, but then he takes off down the lake back towards the damn again with the black jet skis in hot pursuit. I suddenly think to myself that I should lock the door because something bad is trying to get in. I lock all the doors, and yell at my neighbors kid who is in the yard to go home before something bad happens. I rush back to the bedroom to check on the birds and my husband. The birds haven't left the small cage, and I realize we forgot to open it when we put it in the bigger cage. I tell my husband to help me I'm going to open it and hope none of the birds escape. He holds the big cage open for me while I open the big cage. Several of the bigger birds get out and we have to chase them around the room. I'm afraid they're going to bite me, but they're very well behaved. I catch one by telling him to step up, and the other one lands on my finger in mid air. We put them in the big cage with the others, and I heard a phone. I go to look and it's not mine. I decide it's my cousins girl friends phone and she must have forgotten it when they dropped the birds off. I look back at the birds and they've turned into fat multicolored babies with feathers and wings instead of arms. I briefly think I'd like to keep them, I miss having babies in the house, then my husband jokes that we just got rid of my brothers bird and Grandma is not going to be happy if we bring home more. I nod, and then wake up. Pretty sure those multi-colored babies are a direct result of getting our My Little Pony Babies in the mail yesterday I can only assume the birds turned into them because two if those pony babies are Pegasus ponies, lol. I'm feeling pretty lucky though that this dream didn't turn into a night mare, there were a few times when it could have, but I managed to avoid it somehow.

      Dream Fragment (???): I dreamed I was playing the Skylanders game my son got for his birthday with him. I have no clue what point of the night this occurred, probably early since it was a rehash of the previous days events.
