I took 100mg of vitamin b-6 before bed. I also took some cough medication before bed, which may or may not have had an effect. Job interview I have an event going on on the same day as a job interview. The interview is at 3:30, and I want to be sure to leave the event (archaeology dig?) by 2:30 to get there. It is just across town, but it will take about a half an hour to get to where the interview will be. When I arrive at the place where we are having the event, I find my grandmother baking something. Or at least mixing something in a big bowl. She tells me that what she is making required $1000 worth of maple syrup. She points to the bowl. "$1000 worth, and this is all I got for it," she says. I look at all the bottles next to her. "How many bottles did you get for $1000?" I ask. "Twelve," she says. I see that there is some syrup left in some of the bottles, and suggest that she add some more, but she explains that the syrup has to be specially prepared in order to be used. You can't just pour it straight from a bottle. And apparently she doesn't use all of the syrup in each bottle. She asks me to pick up a new bottle from the store though. I go out to do something with the other people there. One of the people is my former supervisor/co-worker. After we are working for a while, I remember that I have the job interview. I look at the clock, which I think says it is just after 2:00, but it really is after 3:00. I work for a bit longer until I realize it is about 3:30. I have 10 minutes until the interview, and I hop into the car and start driving. I don't exactly know where I am headed, but I have a GPS. I try setting the GPS while I am driving, but I can't see what I am doing very well so I pull over. I still can't see what I am doing very well (because it involves reading and entering words and numbers in a dream, but I don't realize that). I think that perhaps I should call the place I am going to try to set up a different interview time, or push it ahead to 4:30. I look for the telephone number of the company, but I have a hard time finding that as well. Light up night The small town that my cousin lives in is having a light up night. They were lighting up a Christmas tree, which only had one or two bulbs on it. They light up other things, but in the end only a few bulbs are lit for light up night. I am talking to my cousin about this later.
So my brother is at the house and he's talking about planting seeds. I was trying to figure out how deep to plant them when I remembered there was a notch on a hoe that served as a marker. I had to use the bathroom when the entire scene switched to outdoors. I was at some open field that was like the thunder plains in FFX. There were several people out there too and we all had to roll these huge spheres. I think they protected us some how but we still had to be careful. On my way back I lost controll of mine and it rolled into a ditch that was full of water. Evevtually it sank and I couldn't help but notice the odd phyics that effected th ball.
Fragment: Going through beeston square on a unicycle. Dad is with me. I ride past a bench and hear a girls voice shout "alriiiiight gorgeous!!" its hayley. I ride over to her, jump off my unicycle. It goes flying towards the group of people hayley is with, over their heads, smashes into a shop and continues bouncing around. "that shit is CRAZY!" i say. Dream: Im in my grandparents house with my family. They want me to do some weird dark, ritual. Apparently to give me certain powers and make me live forever. I'm turning it down at first but then decide ill go with it. My uncle - who is slouched on the sofa - instructs me to take out a lightbulb and turn it on with my own power. i take a chair, stand on it and un-screw the lightbulb. hold the bulb in my hand and try to make it turn on, nothing happens. I look around the room and everyone is giggling... "WHAT?" I shout. They tell me to hold it the other way round, so i grip the metal bit and try again, i focus REALLY hard, putting all my concentration into lighting up the bulb, the bulb lights up - so bright that it hurts my eyes and everyone yells at me to turn it off. The room goes dark and they start asking me to do some really evil things, i refuse and walk out of the house. My uncle follows me and tells me if i dont do them, he will be forced to kill me. I run out of the house and down the street, i can hear my uncle running after me, suddenly i stop.... Holy shit, THIS IS A DREAM! I nose plug RC, i can breathe. i can hear my uncle's footsteps and he is laughing, i turn around just as my uncle gets close to me, with a raised knife, aiming towards my throat. His face is twisted in hatred, it scares me a little. I tell myself not to think about his expression too much as i don't want to lose lucidity and put my left hand up in front of me in a "stop" kind of motion. he freezes in place. I grin at him, I KNOW im dreaming you idiot, his expression changes to one of fear. i slowly bring my right hand back, as if im firing a bow, but keep bringing it back until its fully stretched out facing behind me. All the while smiling, i focus as much energy into my hand as i can muster and force it forwards, it doesn't hit him, it wasn't suppose to. My hand stops just before his chest but my Uncle is instantly thrown backwards, so fast, i could not keep up with his movement. I cant see him anymore so he must of gone REALLY far. I turn to see my silver, fiat punto. Think to myself this is a lucid, cant be driving round in that. I turn away from my car, think about a dodge challanger, when i turn around there is one parked in front of my punto. I get in and start to drive really fast. I notice that my petrol is really low and wander where i can fill up with gas... I wake up in my bed with a huge grin on my face.
Good morning, everybody. Dream #1 I was on the top bunk of a bunk bed with two other men. There may have been other people in the bedroom. The top bunk felt pretty high and pretty close to the ceiling. The bedroom felt pretty busy. There may have been a TV blaring in one corner of the room. There was a window letting in a lot of bright, winter light. The men on the bed with me were both white, gay, and probably in their mid- to late-thirties. They were laying in weird positions under blankets. The bed seemed to have tons of different blankets on it. So each of the guys had his own blanket. The guys both started talking to me about going to some country in Europe. They said I'd probably like it a lot better than I'd like the United States. They were reall encouraging me to go. Finally I said I couldn't go. I didn't have a passport. They may have said something about how they couldn't believe that. I said, "No. Really. I've never been outside the US in my entire life." I was about to qualify that statement, since it wasn't quite true. But both guys were now so shocked that they interrupted me. One of the guys, dressed in a feminine kind of shirt, black, with the shoulders way low, exposing a shoulder strap, like a bra-strap, said, "No, no. Stop! Just drive, man! Just get out and drive!" (At this point, a song started playing in my head with the words, "just drive, man, just get out and drive.") I knew by this that the guy meant I should just finally get out of America and go see the world. I had no idea how they expected me to do this. But I may have gotten the idea later that the two guys were actually going to give me money to do this. Dream #2 I was standing in line at a huge drug store. The line seemed to be curving along the right end of a pharmacy counter, then along a wall. I was a couple people back in line, and I stared at a bag of chips I was holding while I waited. My chips were some dark red bag of Doritos. But the bag was old, like the 1970s style of bag. I soon headed over to a cashier. She was a young, black woman, kind of overweight, with hair about between jaw-length and shoulder-length. The woman rang up my chips. She may have held onto them for a long time. Maybe she never gave me the chips back. But she told me they cost four dollars. We had some kind of pleasant conversation about this. I was walking down the counter, as if I were now ready to walk out of the store. But I went up to another cashier. This time I was buying deodorant. The cashier was maybe Latino. He had olive-colored skin, a bald-shaved head, and a bit of stubble on his face. He was tallish, and kind of strong. But he was gay and acted a tiny bit effeminate. The cashier told me that I was paying way too much for this deodorant. He told me that if I had a club card, I would pay much less for a similar kind of deodorant. The new price may have been $2.69. I told the man that I did have a club card. I pulled my keychain (? - I think) out of my pocket. There was a mini club-card on it. But it looked all faded out, like I'd worn it out by holding it in my pocket for too long. I then realized that I simply hadn't taken off some kind of protective seal that had been placed over the barcode. It was like a mildly adhesive strip of semi-opaque, white plastic. I peeled this off. The barcode for the club card looked fine. I handed the card to the man. The man rang me up for a deodorant. As I was paying him, either the previous cashier or another cashier who looked a lot like her walked up to the left end of the cashier counter. The man told the woman, as if he'd asked her, that he was giving me the club card deal on deodorant. The woman looked a little annoyed that the man would have given me any of the club card deals. I now remembered that the previous cashier hadn't told me about any club card deals. I wondered if these two women had been trying to hide the club card deals from me. I now felt terribly shy and afraid, like I'd overstepped some kind of totem-boundary by having taken a club card deal when the women didn't want me to. All I wanted to do was get out of the store. I thanked the man and walked away. But I only walked a couple meters away, to a row of shelves directly facing the left end of the cashier counter. The shelves were stocked with deodorant. I was looking directly at the deodorant the man said I should buy. It was maybe the Tom's of Maine brand, and it may have had something like olive oil in it. The packaging was an off-white or olivey-beige color. The deodorant seemed to be with other stuff, too, like hand soap using similar ingredients. There may also have been some display for the products, like they were in some kind of wicker basket, or like they were standing on top of a small bale of hay. I suddenly realized that, even though I'd paid the man for my deodorant, I'd never actually gotten it. I figured I should just pick out one of these deodorants and take it with me. I may have knelt down to get a deodorant. But now the man called from behind me. Either the man threw a trial-size deodorant at me, or the trial-size deodorant fell from the shelves. The man told me he'd forgotten to give me a deodorant. But he'd give one to me right now.
Fragment 1: I remember being in a dark living room. I was standing behind a couch facing a TV. Fragment 2: I was in a classroom with a couple of other girl. We were looking around for something - I think it was a poster. We found a poster in a closet that had Japenese faces on it. Fragment 3: My mom and I were walking through a house unknown to me. We exited through the front porch and heard builders overhead. A girl ran down the stairs inside and yelled, "Wait!" We turned around. "Oh, I thought you guys were burglers." She panted. We talked for a while. Dream: My friends and I were in the mall. I was walking throughout all the stores, I guess window shopping. There were dogs everywhere. They were spread out in a weird formation. They may have been police dogs, looking for drugs or something. They were big, really big. Like bigger than a Great Dance. They had white coats that looked like a Golden Sheperd's, but they were scary, showing their teeth at me. I cowered away in fear. But I kept walking. I saw some guards in what looked like a men's clothing store. Now I was on a side balcony in the mall with my friends. I don't exactly know what we were doing. We sat down on the ground. I carried a binder for some reason. I dropped it off the balcony. As soon as I did, my mom appeared and picked it up.
Hey everyone! Just thought i'd introduce myself a little bit. I came across this website when i was in eighth grade. I soon broke off and did my own thing, spending little time on journaling and a lot of time on school. Now i'm in college with a slight sleeping problem. Stress has caused my dreams to become somewhat 'distorted' lately, so i figured i would return to this site and start up a new Dream Journal! Hope to fill it with good content soon.
Super Hero Trouble I am in a street when suddenly a masked super hero jumps down and confronts a business man wearing a suit, I'm not sure what the guy has done wrong but the superhero ties him upside down to a crane that is high above the ground, swinging from left to right. After the man is tied up the superhero leaves, I look up at this guy that is hanging - the knot that tied him to the crane isn't strong enough and he's slipping, closer and closer to the ground while swinging from left to right. The guy is sobbing - shouting out 'please someone help me! I didn't do anything wrong, please help me, get me down from here!!!' I then realise that this is a tv show, I am watching it at home (no longer in the street) It's apparently a film based on an Alan Moore book, but because Alan Moore doesn't want anything to do with the film he is slyly referenced in the film through another means - the super hero discovers that he must go to 'Alan Moore Street' Climbing to the top Dream fragment: I am climbing up some stairs, the person who I am trying to find is important somehow (god perhaps?) - the journey is long, this must be somekind of tower - I climb and climb and finally reach the top - there are two doors opposite one another. The door on the right has a light coming from it - I knock on the door and hear a booming noise in reply. At this point I must have started to wake up because instead of the dream continuing I imagine a forced conversation with this man where I come up with the replies.Not sure what is said though, but for some reason I think of Popeye when I wake up.
A man with one watch knows what time it is; a man with two watches is never quite sure. ~ ~ Dreams: 1. ~ Lucid: 0
Lucidity: 7/10 Vividness: 6/10 Length: ~5 Min. I basically tried to do something epic and ended up trying to have sex, I felt things and smelled the air and it was epic.
I don't know why, but I haven't really been able to really remember my dreams, as of late, though this one was quite strange enough for me to remember, at least for the most part. In the beginning of the dream, I was with my Mom and my Brother as we watched a school shooting, the actual tape, on a retro 80's television, and strangely enough, we weren't the slightest bit concerned, or at least they weren't, I was scared. Not long after, the school shooting became a hospital shooting on a futuristic white TV, though we looked still unaffected. The last part of the dream was even more disturbing. I for some reason took the role of the character Celie from The Color Purple, and my mom was Shug Avery, also from the same book. I remember us talking about something, though I don't remember what, but soon after, I found myself, being Celie, dressed in a classic Southern dress, and even having a black skin color, and I was digging through a toilet, full of feces. Literally, there was just poop that filled the toilet, and without gloves, I just dug through it. I remember me puking in the dream, into the toilet, which only added to the mess, but in the end of the dream, we went back to watching the school shooting and the hospital shooting, all as our actual selves. This, has got to be one of the strangest dreams I have had yet.
Colour Legenda: Setting| Technique used | Dream (lv1) | Dream (lv2) | Lucid Dream | Notes ************************************************** **************** I'm SO proud of myself, I remembered 4 full dreams!! I remembered them in pairs, as I woke up at 1:29 am and remembered the first two. Dream 1 I get home before my parents. When they get home too, I need an eye operation, and the doc starts by taking out my purple contact lens. (i own these IRL) then he paralyzes my face (but somehow i can still talk) ans begins cutting. ..under my eyebrow! So i protest, but he says "don't worry, I'll sew IT back on." and begins.. ..on my cheek, working his way up to my eyebrows and the dream ends just as he's about to start peeling off my skin.. This was SO silly. The doctor was my family PG. And he cut around my eyes, kinda like a Zorro Mask. Dream 2 I'm in Leuven, on the train to heide. Someone i know from uni shows up and points me in the (wrong) direction but gets IT right eventually. I get the distinct feeling he's in love with me. I dreamt about this type of train and station a few times before. The train is really long and thin, and on both sides there are platforms, but it's all soooooooo narrow.. AND there's no direct train from Leuven to Heide. ..why would I want to be in Heide in the first place, I don't live there! This is when I tried FILD (Finger Induced Lucid Dreaming [link to thread]) THREE times and failed three times. Gave up and tried a normal WILD, but that failed too. Dream 3 I'm in a shop, asking a store manager for certain items. Turns out they're baby supplies. Turns out they're for ME. There's a breathing tube (i could use One of those IRL, i've got a massive cold), with the following instructions: breathe next to needles. Upon closer examination, there are indeed two needles attached, One on each side. I laugh at how ridiculous that is, and remove them, and go to sleep, tube and all. This one was so dumb. I work in the office of an ironware store, and people often ask me for items without me knowing what they are, exactly. So this one's just a reflection of my real working life. ..with silly twist about the breathing tube I guess my nose was particularly clogged up at that moment? Dream 4 I'm in a forest, at camp of whatever, my dad's there too, and as we're being rounded up, i'm socialising with a bunch of other kids (i've become their age). We're on our way to a concert. I'm training the band, consisting of a musician and a young girl with a beautiful voice, but she does beatboxing. As the gig begins i sneak into the audience and sit down with some kids. When the roll call begins, the name "iris" is called. A boy in front of me raises his hand. His supervisor says "iris, not Eric. PLEASE don't raise your hand again, as IT would mess up our count." he indeed does not raise his hand again. He States that he speaks German as well as Dutch. This one was really interesting. The band were playing these synthesizer beats, together with the girl's beatboxing. I might use that beat in a song, if I ever manage to take the time..
I was inside a fast food shop that resembled the el pollo loco on imperial hwy, but instead they were selling ice cream. I am looking at the menu located behind the counter and had a hard time reading the items. there were spaces in between letters and the titles of the ice cream ran multiple lines. I order 3 scoops, and tell the server to pick a random flavor for the last scoop.
DreamLucidAwake Document Fragment I'm not really sure what was happening. I would fall asleep, dream that I was reading some sort of document and then wake up not long after. This repeated about 5 times and was very boring. Slow Down It was the middle of the night and I was standing by the street near one Loudonville's parks. I was standing next to a parked car waiting for someone. It wasn't long before some man and some woman appeared right behind me. We all get in the car and the lady is driving, the man is in the passenger seat, and I'm sitting in the back. As we're driving, the lady starts speeding faster and faster. I asked her to slow down, but she ignored me. Then we come across a steep hill with a sharp turn at the bottom. Asking her to slow down soon turns into yelling, but all they could say is "we're fine." As we aproached the corner I closed my eyes and braced myself for a crash. After I opened my eyes, the car was parked in a driveway and I fell out of the vehicle. As we went inside the house I couldn't stop repeating "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you." To finish the dream, we all sat on the couch and watched Looney Tunes. Trailer Park Walkabout It was the middle of the day (yay) and I met a teenager named Kevin. I was then with a grouop of 5 other teenagers and we all went to a trailer park to get ice cream. For some reason the ice cream guy kept running from us, so I had to chase him for a while. After looting the ice cream cart, we walked around for a while talking and telling jokes. We came to a creepy part where everyone just stared at us with grim faces. The road finally led us to a cliff with lake at the bottom. I threw a pipe bomb into the lake for no real reason at all other than to see it explode. Not much else happened. Let Me Swing I was on a playground at sunset, playing on a swing set. As I was swinging, there was a kid behind me that kept bugging me to play with him. I told him know several times because I knew it wouldn't end well. He repeatedly began to call me a toad. I ignored him and just kept swinging. This made him mad and he somehow pushed me off the swing when I was high up. I landed on the ground and did a pk roll to break my fall. He then called me a lotus and I woke up. Zombie Princess It was morning and I was inside a castle courtyard. I met a princess who was overly ambitious about finding an ancient shrine. She then runs off into the wilderness to go look for it. It confused me too much to care until the king told me to go save her. So my opinion didn't really matterh here and I was forced to fallow her. Tracking her eventually led me to a cave that descended deep into the ground. When I caught up with her, she had already found the shrine. Its power had transformed her into an evil soulless zombie. As she started to grow bigger and more powerful, I ran off to find a relic she had mentioned before. I came across a treasure chest and dug through it until I found some sort of cross made of blue crystal. I pressed it against her and she kind of vaporized in a bright light... Forgot to Pay It was the middle of the day and I was at a restaurant in Loudonville. I had ordered waffles and pancakes. I happily ate them and they tasted more delicous than I could have imagined. I then left the restaurant and waved goodbye. As I walked down the sidewalk I stopped for a moment. "Waaaaiiit! I forgot to pay for my pancakes." I ran back to the restaurant, but when I got there the waitress pushed me over to a table with my family. I reluctantly sat down to join them. Most of my family was there plus Ginny from Harry Potter. I don't remember much of the rest of the dream because I felt like ignoring them. Gameboy Kid I think I was 10 years old in this dream or something. I was in a car with a woman and her kid who was of similar age. Maybe I was recently adopted. The kid had like 20 gameboys in his backpack and kept talking about his games all the way to walmart. Not much happened at walmart except the kid bought 10 more gameboys and a Latin language game. We then drove back home and the kid kept talking about his 10 identical gameboys the whole way. The next thing I remember is sitting in a room with the 2 of them and I'm suddenly 5 years old now. There was also a baby there who I played with toy blocks and car with me. Then the woman suddenly wanted to throw up, so I ran and got her a bucket. As she was busy with that, I sat down in front of the tv to watch Loony Tunes. End
Haunted Complex It began with me looking upon a city at night while being driven somewhere in a car by some random person. The highway I was on was illuminated with an orange glow due to the lights. However, the scene quickly changed to a paved area with sloped walls to the left and right sides. It was now broad daylight and the pathway resembled a dry wash. I soon found a random group of dream characters following me as we had apparently stumbled across an old haunted town. As we explored the city, we soon came across a building that had many complex chambers below. We had learned this through some holographic device that showed us the layout of the underground complex. As we explored them, we soon found them to be haunted with many ghostly apparitions and reanimated skeletons that wandered the hallway. The overall feel of it was similar to an old horror movie about an abandoned Victorian home being haunted. However, the dream became more like a video game in that when I tried leaving one of the rooms, a pseudo-loading screen came up and caused the dream to become unstable. Zombie City Fragment As soon as that loading screen disappeared, I found myself in a now flooded wash, exploring the area by myself. It wasn't until a few steps that I soon found demon-esque zombies popping out of the water and attempting to attack me. But in a flash, two people began to fight right in front of me. Strangely, it's as if a Mortal Kombat round broke out in front of me, as the fighters tried using the zombies to their advantage. Though, it ended as quick as it started because I started running up this hill where this unfinished tower was being built for some rich person. Thanks to implanted memories, I had a déjà vu moment where I recalled already running through this spot. As I looked upon a pile of materials, there stood the owner in zombie form due to him being attacked and pushed off the tower by his zombiefied construction workers. So I was quick to leave the location and the dream fades from there. Broken Submarine Fragment Interestingly, I found myself on a broken ship with a few of my waking life friends. It was cold and raining, and the engines mysteriously stopped as we seemed stranded out in the middle of the ocean. As I opened up the engine hatch, I found that they were empty. In order to fix this problem, I decided to stuff old papers of my already done homework into there and light it on fire to use it as fuel. As I was stuffing my papers in there, the dream ended. Two Diplomats This dream wasn't as surreal as the last. A fancy king of a modernized kingdom held a meeting at his palace. I was just a visitor to watch how things unfolded and was accompanied by an old dream character. He was granted access to areas that no other person could go. As we sat in an opened patio, he gave me a breakdown about two diplomats that were showing up. Both were from real countries from what I recall. The two nations opposed each other and wanted to gain the kings favor as soon as possible so they decided to send over two diplomats. I remember that the first diplomat that showed up was a heavyset but short man with a jolly nature. He cracked jokes and contrasted the other diplomat who was tall and had a grim, serious face on. I was told to go help them out by the old man, and had decided to follow the serious diplomat. However, I got lost after going through multiple hallways and instead was in a room with one of the kings advisers. I can't quite remember what she looked like, but I know that ethics and morality certainly weren't an issue for her as she kept trying to find out a way to play having enslaved labor as good. Before she could explain though, I woke up. Afternoon Nap It was a rather short dream involving playing with my bass at jazz band. My little brother IRL was messing around with some toy that sang and I remember one of the dream characters screaming out in frustration for it to stop. Oddly enough, I stayed in the dream a little longer despite it looping in the background. Conclusion I think I can say the number of dreams I remember has improved, it's just a matter of improving the length of my dreams. One thing that I notice is that I seem to remember little pertaining to real life in my dreams. It's almost as if I have this "dual" life in my dreams as my mind seems to accept everything that is happening as reality. The overall structure of my dreams seem realistic too. Sure, maybe I might fight zombies, but they are space zombies flying on cows. I dunno, like I said, dream recall is something I still need to work on.
I was in a giant canyon that had a blue and green tint to it. There were a lot of pine trees that were that same color, but no pine needles or leaves on the ground. Come to think of it, it was perfectly clean for being outdoors. I was part of some sort of trials or competition. I was in a group of about four other people like me and one who mediated the challenges. The way it worked was if you out did everyone you were with you moved on to a group of other people in other groups that did the same, like a tournament I suppose... I beat everybody at what we were doing and moved on, or perhaps I stumbled the next group up, I'm not sure. Anyway I was about to begin the next set of obstacles but I woke up. I can't recall any challenges I needed to do specifically besides maneuvering inside of a house/tree built into the side of a hill, but that's it. There was a women inside with me, I don't know if I was competing against her or if she had something to do with the challenge. I wish I remembered more of this dream because it was really interesting
