    1. S.t.; tadpole

      by , 01-17-2012 at 02:27 AM (* The Sandman's Dream Journal o/***)
      I dreamed I was with S.t. We were in bed. I rolled into position so that "I" was in S.t.'s hand. It was a very short dream, but the one I was waiting for.

      I had another dream where I was by the water. I never actually swam in it, but at one point I was concerned because I was swimming in it, something was swimming after me, and the thing knew which way to swim because the water had a memory of where I had gone, and the fish thing that was after me could read the water. (This comes from something I saw on youtube of how water really does have a memory.)


      I saw the water retain the swirls of where I had swam, and knew the fish creature would follow the current and find me.

      Then I saw some tadpoles. I looked at them in my dream. They were kind of evil looking. That was the most vivid part of the dream. I really focused on the fish. I saw them in very shallow water, and they looked like some other kind of fish. Kind of evil looking. They were kind of long and hand round heads like Alien.

      I was afraid of a tadpole.

    2. The Ice Moon Cometh...

      dream : comments : lucid

      17th of January, 2012


      Had some failed lucidness early in the night.
      I was sleeping and Nooks woke me up saying "it's 9pm, time to wake up!" I was all "Why the shit would you be waking me up at 9pm?" at which point she proceeded to start putting fish on my feet. By that stage I was all "nup, this is stupid, this is obviously a false awakening" and when I did my hand-check I mustn't have been deep enough into the dream and the movement actually woke me up for real. Almost immediately after that I went back to sleep and back into a dream. Not quite a WILD, but I was almost instantly aware. Quasi DEILD, perhaps. Again I was lying asleep except I was a bit deeper in and was this time at a beach. I was in the sand when I woke up again. Did a RC and wasn't dreaming. God damn it!
      Back asleep again and THIS time I was still at the beach but could really feel the sand and water. I focussed on sinking into the sand so as to stimulate my senses a bit and really tried focusing on Nooks' face to become hyper-aware. It all sort of worked but then the dream began to fade and I couldn't get it back.
      Ah well. Close.

      -----

      I was at some dodgy apartment block and was meeting all the neighbours.

      -----

      I was at a birthday party and drinking champagne. Some hippie type girls offered me LSD which I accepted. The acid was on these plastic strips that had different phrases printed on them. The one I took said “Spiders in your mouth”. I half dissolved the strip and suddenly realised I didn’t want to be tripping on acid and remember that it said anything about spiders being in my mouth so I spat it out and asked for another one, which they didn’t let me have. I wanted the one that said "Ice cream".

      We went outside where people were drinking and partying in the back yard and I hung around drinking my champagne and having a good time. Presently, I looked up into the sky and was struck with awe. The moon was enormous but different. It was covered in gigantic ice crystals- all perfectly formed like giant snowflakes. The arms of the crystals spread out far into the sky, about twice the diameter of the moon itself. I was totally blown away and ran screaming to the other people to come and have a look. When they came over the crystals had begun dropping off and falling through space towards us. While they fell, they broke into smaller pieces and snowed down on us as snowflakes the size of dinner plates. It was a beautiful experience and I remember turning to Nooks and asking if it was the acid or if it was really happening and she just smiled and nodded before catching one. It was nice.

      Later on there was something to do with hot air ballooning in a cave and finding magic mushrooms. That lead into my family having issues with a neighbour shooting arrows into our yard. The neighbour became one of my younger brothers who stabbed one of my other brothers with an arrow and when we told him we would call the police on him he suddenly became really cute and baby-faced. I asked him to apologise and when he did he became a manchild with a seedy ass beard and looked totally creeper. He started apologising in this weird rhyming slang and I decided I hated him.

      -----

      Aliens invaded in cool space/aquatic ships. They were all spiky and black. As they landed in the water, huge waves flooded large parts of the city and the street we were on was suddenly awash with buses coming towards us. We narrowly avoided being crushed by the sliding buses and ran up a hill into a park. There, some people offered me cheese and I said, in a very posh voice “no... quite alright thank you” which they scoffed at. I asked if they’d prefer a more bogan approach and said “aw, fuckin’ aliens and shit invading, hey!” then left. We went into a house that had a smaller house inside it and I climbed onto the smaller house’s roof. All of a sudden I realised my teeth were loose and they began to fall out and break apart.

      Didn’t do a dream check because apparently I’m an idiot and don’t recognise my own dream signs.

      Anyway, I woke up shortly afterwards.
    3. No reservations for us

      by , 01-17-2012 at 02:12 AM (DDD17's Dream dramas! (mostly...))
      Date: 15.01.12

      I was with S, T and N. We were going out or a meal, so started up the stairs to a restaurant we fancied, whilst walking past the toilet a guy shouted-
      "Don't come in!"
      "We won't" I said
      "Get out" he shouted, and came out. He was the owner.
      "Alright!" ..."god he's friendly" I muttered. We turned around and headed out. The gut came to the doorway and said, "No young ones tonight" as if that were any consolation.
      So, with that we headed back to our accommodations, I walked with S through what I thought was her accommodation, remarking how beautiful it was, what with the archaic architecture and light blue, frosted windows. She said it was part of main arts and that she didn't want to go back to her accommodation as she hadn't paid rent. I said she could stay at mine...
      Then somewhere along the way we were with T and N again and apparently in some sort of battle against everyone else, they were trying to stop us doing something or other, anyway, the details are hazy. We hid in the toilets, locking the doors. I had a plan to escape onto the roof, but someone had turned on the power which made the roof-covered in wires- electrical. We escaped through a different window into what appeared to be a garden centre, as there were plants scattered and growing everywhere in pots and over the pathway. People were trying to stop us pass, we kicked and punched our way through, i grabbed my bag after we'd had a rest to readdress which route we were going to take, but i saw a baked beans can on a shelf, had an idea and grabbed it. From then on anyone who got in my way, I bashed their head with it. There was one woman in particular who was lying on the floor due to my friends having pushed her over, I said "she's gonna grab my leg, don't grab my leg, don't grab my leg!" I stepped over at which she grabbed my leg, I shouted "I SAID DON'T" and bashed her in the head with the tin,a red line appeared and a trickle of blood shortly followed, I felt pretty bad, but needed her to know she couldn't stop me, she didn't seem fazed and I ran to catch my friends up. An old man stepped in front of me, in a tweed jacket holding a dandelion under his chin, (like people do with buttercups) I didn't want to resort to violence again, so said-
      "Do you like butter?"
      "I do like butter" he replied
      so I said, "Then let us rejoice in the fact that we all like butter" and strode past him. I caught up my friends and T asked, "did you just pretend to be a member of a secret club my making a bizarre, code like statement?"
      "haha yeah!"
      at the culmination of the dream we ran up into a tower, we gathered together and waited as the people after us had set up a bomb, they were about to press it. I said "we should stand together in our last moments",
      T said, "haha, right our "last moments" " and gave me a look as if to say, just wait for it. The person pressed the bomb, but instead of an explosion a special effect sound of a cow mooing was heard. We burst out laughing and that's where the dream ended and faded away.

    4. Passively Wandering

      by , 01-17-2012 at 12:42 AM
      1/16/12

      DILD

      Notes: Nap...I felt very apathetic in this dream. I was not interacting with my environment much and I felt like I didn't have any objectives.

      I dream started where I was laying on my stomach on the grass in ben's backyard. Kevin walked up and said, "It didn't ruin their lives...it just changed them." (he was referring to a TV show I had seen and talked to him about in an earlier dream. It wasn't a real show). I remember thinking that I should rewatch it to prove my point.

      I somehow become lucid and stand up. I decide to walk inside the house and see if I can summon HM. I am visualizing her pretty well. However, about halfway there I get this thought that is like, "Ugh...I bet its going to be Robin again." I round a corner and instead of ben's living room, its my old one, and of course, Robin is sitting on the couch. I sit down next to her somewhat disappointed. I ask her why she is always here. She has some response that I can't remember. I put my arm around her and sit silently for a bit. I then grab one of her legs and put it over my lap. I am just sitting and thinking to myself. I do feel some connection between me and her. I eventually start trying to have sex with her. She is just going along and I stop myself, realizing I don't want to do this.

      I get out and walk outside, half-expecting to see HM again. It is the front yard of my old house and she isn't there. I walk into the street. It is fairly dark. As I look up to fly, I see the trees have branches that extend way too far. They are touching each other so there are no good gaps to fly through. I find a small one and fly up. I just get to the branches and fall back down (I didn't hit the branches, I just got near them and lost all speed.) I decide to try and portal so I look across the street and start to draw a circle on a nearby house. Halfway through, some guy walks up and says something. I am mildly distracted but I look back and see the portal is finished. It is very large and has a red outer ring. I don't respond to the man and head for the portal.

      I fly through it and suddenly I am gently flying over a large amphitheater. I am flying slowly, but I keep that speed. I think to myself, usually if I go too fast I lose speed and altitude. Maybe it will be easier if I just go slowly. It was. Eventually I have to start breast stroking, but I don't mind. I looked back down and everything was black. I tried to imagine seeing the seats of the amphitheater. Eventually a tan half-circle forms, and that slowly forms into the seats. Once I regain full vision, I look up and see that I am about 6 ft. below this platform. I just get enough height to land on top.

      I stand up and turn around a corner. Some girl on the platform is yelling at a girl down below (but not as far down as the amphitheater). I decide to not get involved so I look to a nearby wall. It is really short, only like 2 ft. tall and made of wood. I try to make a portal in it. However, instead of the red ring, I just made a circular line in the wood. The girls look over at me and laugh. One says, "Look, he thinks he's magical or something!" I figure out a way to fix the portal. I use telekinesis and pull the circular chunk right out of the wall. It falls harmlessly to the ground. The girls are shocked. I walk over to the portal, but it is really small...only about 10 in. diameter. Before I figure out how to get through it, I lose the dream.

    6. Dancing with you

      by , 01-16-2012 at 11:48 PM
      ...one of the most vivid dreams i have had in quite some time. it was spring time and it was storming, raining very hard and the wind was blowing and i can remember the sound of the wind howling through the cracks in the window...and i can remember water droplets running down the glass....i don't know where we where... but the dream was mostly black and white...only parts of it in color, you where smiling and laughing, and i can remember thinking that it was very nice to see you smile....and clouds of fog circling around the room...you held your hand out to me and asked if i like to dance... ii stuck my hand out to grab yours and i can remember blushing , and very embarased because i knew i could not dance, but i didn't want to turn down the offer.
      the most vivid part of the dream was the feeling of your warm hand on my lower back pressing me up against your body, spinning and twirling around and around in circles and then i began to laugh like a little kid...
      i then awoke to a loud whisper of some one calling out my name......i rose out of bed and my body was covered in goose bumps and no one was around...the house was still and quiet......

      Wednesday Jan.11/2012

      Woke up at 4:31 am and remember getting images and going into LD, but don’t remember, if there was an LD.

      DR: I’m on a top floor of college dormitory/hotel. I need to remodel some thing in the rooms, to get them ready. I feel like student’s are coming the next day.

      I’m repairing small picture frames by putting painters tape on frames and painting. I go from room to room. When I’m done, I go to check, but they are not good. When I pull the tape off, some tape is stuck. I go to rooms to collect them and redo by next morning. Kids and teachers are already there.

      1 teacher S is already in the last room on top floor. She is heating up something on a small electric heater for her daughter. I see sparks flying. It smokes and sets of the fire alarm. I can hear it’s beeps. People start moving downstairs, I know, I can’t use the elevator. I come upon the infirmary with patients in blue sitting on benches alongside the walls, waiting to be evacuated. There is a girl with two crutches. I ask her if she needs help getting down, but she says no. I ask the nurse if I can help anybody get downstairs, she also says no.

      Thursday Jan.12/2012
      DR at 4:25

      I have a nosebleed, someone is helping me.
      We have returned from a trip, I’m going to lay down.

      Friday Jan.13/2012
      B-complex 100 at 2:50pm
      DR 3:24am
      I sit on a ski lift alone
      going down to the gold mine

      7:18am
      Our class is on a trip. We are in a small airplane. The entertainment on the plane were magic tricks by a magician. We are told it is expensive. We made a stop. People are getting off, I’m looking for my camera. I unload my backpack, everybody is leaving stuff on a plane, we just going to get some souvenirs and continue on a trip. Someone tells me he is going to get me same big gift as he is getting for someone else already, because I saved his life. Prior to this we flew very low under some electrical cables and I was worried we are gonna hit them. Then this person stands up and reaches up to see if we are too close. We were not, but he got electrocuted. As he is laying on the floor I check his pulse and breathing. He comes to and he thanks me.

      Then we are in mountains. Not much green, more dusty and dry looking. We are crossing a natural bridge. On the other side is a castle. Inside we are finding treasures - I find couple of tiaras in shelves, bunch of jewelry, rings and such. There are also photographs from my previous trips with class. I want to borrow them to make copies. I ask husband of the teacher (they live here) if I can borrow the yellow envelope full of pictures, that I will return it to the teacher when she goes to work, school is just two streets from my house.

      WBTB 7:18am-8:10am GM 4mg+Choline300mg at 8am
      woke up f/WILD at 11:35am


      HH- I’m looking at a moving landscape underneath me. Sunny fields. I Imagine seeing myself on the ground. The view is coming closer and I see something flying in the skies. When it lands, I realize its me. As my view is coming closer to the ground, I wish and I merge with myself on the ground. My view changes and I’m in the dream standing on the ground in middle of fields.

      There are a few houses nearby. Three cars are parked in front. Yellow, maybe red and closest to me is a beautiful, shiny black dodge charger. I have never drove a car in my dream before, so I decide to go for a ride. Then I notice beautiful orange flowers in grass in the lawn right next to the car. I squat down to take a closer look. These are my favorite orange flowers, that are so common in parks in SoCal. They are so pretty. I see the grass too. Very clear, sharp, I see every blade of green grass. I inhale the air, don’t smell anything though. I look at my hands. They look completely normal, only 6 fingers per hand.

      I get up, open the car door and get in. Its beautiful inside. Black leather, black steering wheel, gages and dials accented with red, windows are small and sleek and tinted. I realize I don’t have the key but I know I just need to put my hand to key hole and I will have the key. So I do that, turn the key and car start up. I step on gas and off we go. The road in front of me is turning left in front of some houses. I come to the corner and wake up.

      Saturday, Jan. 14/2012
      I have two roommates. One is M, we are in US. We want to go to the beach, but she says she cant, she is ill, had some tests done.
      Then we are in front of my home in NZ and I’m telling her about possibility of healing in LDs and I explain to her all types of LDs.

      Sunday, Jan.15/2012
      We just got back home from somewhere. I’m in NZ. Before going upstairs to the apartment, I check the mail. There is a ton of mail. I look for ours and find a ton of magazines, envelopes. It’s exciting.

      WBTB 5:37am-6:20am
      DILD around 10am


      I woke up in this house. For some reason I go to the roof. I see the roofs of other houses, it’s a residential area with moderns SoCal. houses in terracotta colors. I say to myself, if this was a dream, I could fly. So I levitate up and I realize I’m dreaming. I’m dressed in underpants and undershirt. I look around and there is a car approaching. Behind it is a cop car. I decide to better get of the roof, I’m sure the cop had seen me and comes after me thinking I’m breaking in. I loose lucidity around here. I’m back inside of the house. There is more people here now. I wake up.

    8. lucid dreamig contest

      by , 01-16-2012 at 08:20 PM
      I entered the building and decided to go get some water and instantly saw people screwing around, making things float and such. I then walked around and asked about what this was all about. I was then redirected to a screen here the president of I assume the convention. He we with about 3 other people in cloaks with super deep voices. He said "those who make it to the lucid competition and win the competition will win the title of lucid king". I then started walking toward a back room planning to take out some competition. All of a sudden bubble started coming out of the floor and started getting everyone stuck. I summoned a knife at my feet and started pawing at it very slowly and got my foot free. I then used my foot to pull my hand out, then cut my hand out and then cut myself free. I headed to the back room while people yelled at me to get them free. I then ran into someone and promptly turned them into a mouse. Someone shouted at me to stop and that I was cheating so i turned him into a cat. I headed to the gift shop and saw some girl was buying stuff which I made disappear.

    9. 16/01/12 - Going out camping

      by , 01-16-2012 at 08:01 PM (Nom nom nom, Mmmattelicious...)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Good morning! Had an interesting dream last night, it's been a while since I had a survival dream.

      22.30: Sleep

      05.30: Camping
      I'm in my mom's neighbourhood. I walk through the woods behind her house when a car appears on the road on my right. I walk slowly, but a part of me tells me to run. I pick up the pace and head behind some bushes. The car keeps up with me but as soon as I break eye contact I get down on all four and start to run like an animal. I run up a steep hill on a game trail, trying to get away from the weird car. After a few minutes of running around I end up down by the road, only further down. A car stops next to me and I recognise it as my mom and dad's car. They start talking to me, and wants me to go with them. I follow them for a while but I soon stop. "I'm going out camping for a few days. I'm not going to bring anything" I tell them.

      This is apparently what they didn't want me to do. "It's dangerous!" my mom says. "But this is what I want to do! That's also the reason I want to do it. To make my own shelter. Soon it will be dark and cold" I say. 'Perhaps I should bring a blanket...' "I might bring that blue blanket just in case I say and grab one from the car. I'm really looking forward to the trip. To be one with mother nature and just live off of what she has to offer for a few days.


      05.30: Wake up

      Amount of sleep: 7 hours

      Supplements: None


      That's it!

      Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

    10. January 16, 2012 WILD attempt #3

      by , 01-16-2012 at 07:51 PM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      I downloaded an app on my phone that was supposed to help with meditation. Well it did clear my mind and all that good stuff. But I still haven't gotten any success.

      WILD attempt #3
      Awake: I lie down in bed, shades drawn. It's dark, quite, comfortably warm, ideal conditions. I turn on the app, it's playing ocean sounds. I lie still, within minutes my legs are numb (This so far is always the first thing to happen). This is followed by my right arm, and I never remember when my left arm goes numb. I start seeing the green lights again, they move like a wax in a lava lamp. They go away quickly. I lie still for awhile and eventually feel a sensation at my feet. It feels like a mix of heat, water, and my feet dissolving. It doesn't spread any further. I try to envision myself sinking into my bed. No dice. I keep myself semi-focused on the ocean sounds throughout it all, not a thought at all except for a song I like playing itself in the back of my head. The green lights come back again, it makes only one round this time and fades away. I'm back to numb feet and only a semi-numb right hand. At thirty minutes in, I give up. I do a reality check. Alas, still awake.

    11. 1/16/12 Seal Chasing

      by , 01-16-2012 at 06:18 PM
      I'm not sure why, but this one stuck with me very hard. It was an extremely emotional dream compared to most.

      Seal Chasing
      Non-Lucid
      Very Memorable

      Non-dream Non-Lucid Lucid

      The scene starts off with me and my pet seal walking down the street, looking for somewhere for her to play. We come across a gym/olympic training center for swimmers. We go inside, and see no one, so we make our way down the main hall, past an empty reception desk towards a room with large wooden doors. On our left, there is a large trophy case with glass shelves. We cautiously open the door. NO one is inside, so we make our way in. The room is extremely large, in the center is a pool, which has a layer of ice over it. We decide to hop onto the ice and play around for a while.

      After several minutes of playing on the ice, the seal finds a small hole, and jumps on it, widening the hole, and allowing her to slip beneath the surface. I rush over to the hole and peer down inside. The seal is playing in the water, swimming around. I decide that the swimming will be good for her, so I slide around on the ice for a while longer. After a few more minutes, I return to the hole and look for my seal, who is nowhere to be seen.

      I search around further for the seal and see, at the bottom of the pool, a hole and a very large tube/pipe leading further down. I head out of the room and search for a way down.

      Jump.

      I'm downstairs now, searching for the seal. I run down the hall, peeking into the rooms on each side. Each room is very long, several hundred yards. They're all filled with water slides, pools, diving boards. Some of the larger slides stretch to the ceiling and large pipes like the one I saw on the surface end just above them as if to go directly from the pool above down to these slides. I continue running, and see more and more of the extremely large rooms on the left and the right.

      Finally, I reach the end of the hall, and turn back to go into some of the rooms.

      Jump.

      Now I'm being chased by large men wearing suites and sunglasses
      (Secret Service types) I grab anything I can find to use as a weapon. Unfortunately, for the most part, I can only find pens and pencils. I find a maintenance bay, and grab some screwdrivers. As I leave the bay and continue down the hallway, one of them starts running the opposite way down the hall towards me. I pull out my improvised weapons, and begin to chuck pencils and pens at him like throwing spikes. I throw knives in RL, so I'm not surprised to find frequent allusions to knife throwing in my dreams. I stick a couple of pens in his chest and torso, but nothing deep enough to be more than a nuisance. Then I throw a screwdriver, and stick him deep in the collar/shoulder, and he goes down. I continue running and come to a rolling tool cart. I refill by picking up a screwdriver and another pen.

      I'm back upstairs now, and I am entering the room we skated in again. Inside are two guards, and behind them is something shining with bright yellow light. I throw my screw driver at the further guard, and stab the closer with my pen. I run over to the shining light, and it is a dear on a pedestal. There are laurel wreaths to each side of the deer. The whole setup looks like a grand shrine. I shouted 'Chani!' There you Are!
      And the dream faded.

      At some point the seal became a deer. The name I called it is that of a character in the Dune series by Frank Herbert.
      I don't know why this was so important. I had a lot of emotion invested into the search for the seal. The whole experience stuck in my mind.

    12. Guy Shooting Arrow and it Rebounds, Me and Girl inside random Bus Shuttle

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Dream 1:

      I'm outside and I see this DC pull off this crazy stunt where he shoots an arrow at some tall plank, and it rebounds off of it and hits another plank and finally hits the target. I can't remember what the target looked like, but I was surprised on the accuracy.

      Dream 2:

      I'm outside, most likely from my University, I see this girl (let's call her "Syd." I had her for Chemistry lecture class and Chemistry lab as well during my first semester in college).

      She was standing there with her boyfriend, and we were waiting for buses to arrive. Apparently one was delayed, so I went to another bus that looked out of place from the rest. I go in without asking the driver if this is the substitute for the delayed bus, and then Syd goes in with me and sits near the front I believe.

      Her boyfriend gets on another bus I think.

    13. 57th Shared Dream Attempt

      by , 01-16-2012 at 05:40 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      I'm in a line to get lunch in the cafeteria. suddenly I notice that Katsuno visited my school; he is behind me in the line.
      Katsuno himself gets a hot lunch, but in my line all the foods are out so I waited more longer and then I finally get salad instead of sandwich I wanted...
      Katsuno and I walked thru the hall way to go to my art class. (the atmosphere in art class was same as IRL) Katsuno sits back at the black table and I asked my teacher that whether I can draw or paint still life. I pick a white paper from the cabinet to draw a vase...
      Foggy recall here. When the school bell rings Katsuno and I go outside walking on the path that leads to my home. He rides a pink bicycle and I push the back of it... someone is following us.

    14. Failed DEILD Attempt

      by , 01-16-2012 at 05:34 PM (Burke's Nightly Escapades)
      All I remember is finding myself at that point where a dream is fading and, even though you know you're about to wake up, you can't stay in the dream. I stayed in this state for several seconds and figured I would try a DEILD. When I woke up I layed completely still, and imagined a simple dream enviornment. After what felt like 30min I figured it wasn't going to work and just got up. The clock said 10:01, and just to be sure I turned away and looked back at it. Still 10:01. It makes sense that the DEILD didn't work, I had already gotten 10 hours of sleep so I likely wouldn't fall asleep very easily



      There was one other dream that I knew I had, but I can't remember it right now. For some reason I didn't write any of these down right away Will edit if it comes to me.
    15. Unsafe Rollercoasters and Delivering Cakes to Rappers

      by , 01-16-2012 at 05:08 PM (The Inner Workings of a Sound Addict)
      Ok so my dream last night was pretty much all over the place, and I'm sure the following structure is artificial due to my mind's desire to make the story more followable, but you get the picture this way at least.
      ---
      15/1/12
      As far as I can remember, the dream starts with my family having just come into some money to take us out of our life-long debt (which we do not have IRL), of which my dad wastes on something extravagant [in some sort of Family Guy manner]. Angry with him, we all get into a rusty old car and set off.

      Our journey takes us to a rollercoaster-shaped path - throwing us up into the air over every hill. The car disappears without us noticing, and I realise the small cart I'm sitting on (now detached from the rest of my family) is rather unstable! I put all my effort into keeping it stable, but I'm more concerned about my more less-well-balanced family, particularly at the speeds we're all going.

      We all make it safely to a platform in the water (apart from my mum, who had to swim the last bit) which features a set of bungee ropes and two body straps. In my mind I know I've done this before, and that it catapults you across the body of water to another rollercoaster, yet there if you don't strap yourself in fast enough, you risk serious injury. I barely save my sister as she slowly attempts to go first. The ropes snap off violently into the distance and we wait for the next set to arrive.

      The rollercoasters then appear to be a video game, and we're all back in my front room back home, with the addition of my cousins and aunt. I get a brief glimpse that this is an Adventure Time video game, seeing Finn and Jake, while also finding out the aim is to deliver an extremely sugary cake to a group of rappers (given to me by P Diddy himself -
      I don't even like his music). My sister and spoilt cousin try the game but do not even reach the rollercoaster level, so I offer to try. My aunt gets stressed and says my cousin has another go (rather unfairly, yet I go along with it as the elder) before she breaks down into tears, claiming she doesn't want another go! A tense family feud ensues, and I unfortunately never get the chance to deliver the cake to those disappointed rappers
