I was playing prototype last night and found the thread GILD - Game Induced Lucid Dream [Experimental].
I decided to give this technique a chanse.

So the last thing i did before going to bed was playing Prototype, Did a couple of RC's every 15-25 minutes. I then went to bed and i almost fell into sleep instantly. No luck this far. My alarm goes at around 05.30, i get up from bed and turn my computer on, played Prototype again for like 45-50 minutes and then closed to attempt a WILD through WBTB. Once again while at bed i daydream that im still playing.

I then enter Sleep Paralyze, While in SP i remember these lines in my head "Do a RC asap" so i did the finger through palm and nose-plug RC as soon as i realised i was soaring through the sky and jumping on buildings. Then i tell myself "I am now lucid" so i start rubbing my hands to stabilize my dream. I then False awakens. Fortunantly i hadn't forgot about doing some more RC's. I then once again find myself successfull in an attempt to WILD. I went outside and jumped up to the moon. The moon looked like the one in Zelda - Majoras Mask. I gave it a smile (looked hilarious) and jumped back to earth, then i lost my lucidity and were unable to remember everything after that.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Had a pretty long and weird dream last night. No lucidity though.

22.00: Sleep

05.30: Dad's pissed
I'm with my dad in his old car. We're on our way to work like usual when a car suddenly appears in the lane next to us, going against the traffic. "What the fuck is he doing?!" my dad yells. The car passes us with everyone honking. My dad decides to turn our car around and teach that guy a lesson. He makes a U-turn and goes after him. After a while the other car goes on an exit that takes him back to the proper road again. My dad doesn't feel like doing that, he waits for the right moment and then pulls the handbrake. The tires screech as we spin around and then go again. Atleast two other cars starts swaying and almost goes off the road.

"See what he does to the traffic?! He's going to get it" my dad says and goes after the car again. We take off on an exit and heads into a neighbourhood with some nice villas in it. "Prepare yourself" he tells me. "For what? I can't fight for shit with these wrists" I say. "Well, atleast look dangerous and be prepared to scare him then." The other car stops and the guy gets out and heads into a few ruins. We get out and follow him. We pass under three buildings that must be home to homeless people, clothes are everywhere and there's trash all around.

At a corner we catch the man. "You guys are pretty persistant" he says with a growl. He's around fifty with a jeans jacket on. I start punching him all over and he falls to the floor. All of a sudden my dad is gone, but my friend Eric is there instead. "He's got two types of cancer" he tells me. I can clearly see that he does. "Oh, he's in stage two cancer mode" I say as the man pee's his pants. I get some pee on my hand and decide to go wash it off. "I've followed you on twitter" he tells my friend Eric who's a pro gamer.

"I'm your biggest fan!" he says with a laugh. "Oh shit" Eric says. I wash the pee off in a sink when the bum does something disgusting, can't recall what it was. We both go: "Eeew!" and I puke a bit.

05.30: Fragment
*I'm up on a very big mountain, like Mt Everest or something. There's a big cabin up there with people trying to survive. I want to go down though, but my friend tells me I can't because I've got a snowboard. "You'll get stuck in the roots" he says. I get a picture in my head of a guy hanging on a cliff in his parachute. He must have gotten stuck there then froze to death.

05.30: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 7½ hours

Supplements: None

That's it! I'm going to note down each time I wake up from now. I'm pretty sure I wake up after almost all my dream cycles. Becoming conscious and then remembering it that is.

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

Not only was this my first (long) lucid dream since joining but it was also my first true WILD . It was around 11:00 and I was finishing that days "waking journal". Before I finished writing I became very tired and decided to just close my eyes. Within seconds I saw a visual hypnagogic hallucination of an alley, I held still and the scene expanded until it engulfed me. I didn't notice it until I was fully immersed but everything was in 8-bit animation. I started sprinting and when I stopped everything had turned into 16-bit. When I started and stopped running a second time everything was normal, at least visually. I decided it would be fun to jump into the clouds and bounce around on them. I jumped as hard as I could (there isn't much that compares to the feeling of jumping a mile in the air) but when I landed in them they were made of glass and were very uncomfortable. There are other bits and pieces of the dream but they keep drifting away as soon as I remember them.

I am watching a webcomic about this male protagonist carrying a box with woman? in it during Josun dynasty. he's not kidnapping her, he's trying to save her.

scene jump

it's at night. I am a male wearing beige coat. I think I have black hair...(probably he is from the movie Source Code; the teacher, Sean) I am carrying a huge box with green cover, female person in it and a paper bag. I want to buy something to feed her. I walk cross the street and I see a McDonald down the stairs. I get in and for some reason there is my art teacher working here. -.- she recognizes me as 'real' me. I give up buying a Mc burger because it's not healthy, so I try to find other store. when I get out of McDonald, I see two people who are on my blacklist. that one bastard tries to fight with me, slightly kicking my leg. I resist and try to walk away. I have to protect the box. then this bitch tries to fight with me too. I get so mad, I put down the box and beat them up.
at this point I recognize that I've been helping this woman in the box at the street every night. she has a baby. I suddenly feel sad about this...

dream 2 - I am in kinda of workshop. there is my favorite webcomic Dieter room! cartoonist Neon B let me in. she looks toatlly different than I thought. I see Caramel too. I sit in the back with teenagers ...I volunteer for making something like photo-animation.
Neon B shared ice cream with us...

loads of strange moments last night. i remember being chased by some vicious red squirrels for one. someone gave me some juice and i told them about rubicon and the amazing fruits they use. my friend fell off this ledge on his bike and i realised it was dream. i floated down to help him out.

a group of old school mates were gathered round asking me why i wasnt part of the group anymore. they were talking about some kind of money collection going round and asking why i wasnt gonna be any part of it. i just asked them to try to explain to me why they felt i had to be a part of it which they didnt seem able to do. probably because ive been thinking about the poppy thing lately. we were messing around after, and it seemed like they were trying to get me to drink something from this milk bottle. i decided to just spray it around instead which started a little ruck which i wasnt involved in. some girl was at the bottom of it so i went to find her later to apologise.

then it got weird again. i floated up the side of this building to find her where she was sunbathing with a friend. as i got there though all i found was dust and all logic fell from my mind. i called out to her as if she was the dust but all this did was blow the dust away. this kind of made me snap back to logic and i just found the whole situation pretty funny

In my dream last night, I'm driving down the freeway in my truck. A friend of mine is riding in the passenger seat and he seems a bit nervous because I'm having a little bit of trouble staying in my lane but otherwise my driving is okay. I look at all the other cars on the road and they're giving me a wide berth. And then I realize...I'm driving in reverse at high speed. That explains why it's difficult to keep the truck centered in the lane. I'm actually having fun and marveling at my mad driving skills when I notice a second vehicle coming onto the freeway and it's going backwards too. He comes up right behind me but I accelerate and get way ahead of him. I want to do one of those manuevers where you whip around 180 degrees and keep driving without slowing down, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it. So I try whipping the steering wheel around while hitting the brakes...but before I know if it works or not, I wake up.

I was in my room, on the bed, one evening. Cat was there as well, lying closer to the wall. He was wearing a white shirt. He (or I) was reading something, then he lied down on his back, his eyes closed. I lied next him coz I wanted to look at his sleepy face. When I got closer, I saw his eyes are still open slightly. When he saw me, he suddenly looked funny at me. I told him I just want to watch him as he sleeps. He turned around, facing the wall.

I went somewhere and went back. Cat was talking on the phone, facing the wall (or maybe pretending that someone called him). Then he said he has to go. I got sad. When he was about to go out the door, I reached for his hand and asked him where he's going. He said he's just going to the bathroom. I slowly let go of his hand as he slowly walked away into the bathroom, while both of us still looking at each other. I finally lost sight of him when I closed the door.

I went somewhere far. Bacolod? Morning. I was looking at eye/sunglasses in a store. I went out. I was in downtown Bacolod. I ran, sad and depressed, because he left me. Then I wondered, what if he just went somewhere, and he was going to return, but then he didn't find me at home, so we just went away? I got more depressed.

It was near the pier in Toledo. I ran. I was near the pier. The beach, with clean, white sand. There were some plants. I jumped over into lower ground on the beach, which was more than six feet high (I'd normally feel very uncomfortable jumping from that height). I felt sad, but at the same time, I didn't mind getting hurt physically, because the pain in my heart hurt more.

Then I reached a place on the beach where there are more people. There is a family of two male parents; they're married and they have three kids, having a blast at the beach. I checked the next "jump," and it was a lot higher. Too high. I saw a bamboo ladder going down. I told myself I'll go down and once I'm lower, I'll jump backwards onto the sand. I then hid my mobile phones in my short pants in a way that they won't get damaged.

I crossed stepped into the bamboo ladder and started going down. Then, at a height I thought I'd still be uncomfortable, I let myself fall backwards. I landed. It was closer than I thought.

Well...I missed one of my more recently occurring dream signs tonight, the sky.

I'm outside, and it's day time. I look up and I see this jet flying by our house. It looks like one of those leer jets except it has two solar panels attached on each side. The jet keeps making passes while opening and closing the panels. Someone was frightened of it because of how it was moving, but I was simply amazed.

Suddenly it became dark, and skyscrapers sprouted from the ground, changing the entire horizon. The scene went from being dull to a retro futuristic setting. Like something you'd see in a old Godzilla movie. Buildings from all types of eras of what the "future" was supposed to look like. I started taking pictures of it all (don't even know where I got the camera from) and suddenly there was a crash. There was an ambulance crew right on the scene, and from what I got out of it, I was in the middle of some movie.

H showed up, and I was telling her that we'd be able to play the part better, since we did crap like that for a living. Later on I found myself waiting on some kind of review, and on it, it said I did all these things that were completely out of character.

Non-dream | Dream | Becoming aware

For the first time in a few months, I've tried lucid dreaming, using Puffin's DILD tutorial. And it worked! I had a lucid dream the very first time I tried this technique. Haven't had one for a long time.

Furthermore I recalled four dreams. Wow!

I'm looking through the window of an apartment; not mine. I see a crossroads, which is about one block down my real house. I see two buses: one is the bus from the line 21 and the other was 15. On the 21 bus, my friends are standing at the top of the roof and they're partying like mad. A few seconds later, I'm inside the 15 bus with some friends and we're going to the pharmacy one block above. We must somehow secure it. The dream then fades away.

I'm spawning in a little village through a teleporter. There's a house near me and one person outside. I'm with a friend. The landscape is quite MMORPG-alike, so there's a small road passing through a grass field. So we start walking down the road and there's an old sorcerer who starts talking to us, she's giving us a quest or something like that. We continue on and we get killed by two dragons (I could see name tags below them... just as in Guild Wars) and their troops. We respawn at the village and I'm with my brother. We see a plane doing aerobatics on the other side of the village. It then comes to our side, and all of a sudden night appears. The plane crashes down my feet... but in water! And I'm falling down as well in the water. It can "surf" on water. By the time day has appeared, we've retaken the road and we get to an alley. Transition to the second part of this dream!

So we walk down this alley. It's leading us to a luxurious 17th or 18th century hotel, high of a few storeys. There's the hotel courtyard just in front of it, about the size of my small high-school courtyard IRL. Suddendly, all my friends appear as well as a homeless and jobless dude. He's drinking some wine. Anyway, I'm now sitting with my friends on the benches. The sorcerer comes back and gives us a potion for the homeless guy. She says: "Give him this to drink! It'll make him get a job!" So one of my friends pours almost all the potion in the dude's wine glass, who's thoroughly enjoying it, and I tell him to stop. "Come on, I've only poured five drops..." he says. Another friend confirms this. And the dream ends here.

The interesting part now!

I'm a school with a blonde, small guy friend I'd never seen before. Now I'm recalling the dream, he looks like a mix of two friends who left the school a few years back. We laugh at some girls and walk our way to the exit of the school for lunch time. At the door of the school, he says he's gonna wait for someone, so I leave him and I get out. I turn left, and then there's a fly annoying me. So, weirdly, I'm starting to rap terribly against it... A few steps away from my house, I look down. I'm wearing a sports jacket and Adidas white shorts. I never dress up like that. I enter in my apartment and I see that the caretaker is now a Pakistanese-looking guy. I suddendly stop and ask myself: "Am I dreaming?" I pinch my nose and feel my breath flowing normally. I'm dreaming! So I look at my surroundings and try NOT to think about me in my bed. Unfortunately I'm so excited I wake up.

Could have been better but hey! Still happy I was lucid the first time I was trying for months, and I recalled a lot of dreams. I had already been lucid but there's always the same problem: excitement. I'll try to control myself next time.

Dream 1
I was in my old school's computer room and was listening to my college teacher say stuff about my current project. He said it was due on friday.

Dream 2
I was in a futuristic city, the rays of the Sun reflected off the buildings and made the city glow bronze. Three/Four girls (I can't remember) came to me and we started having sex (yeah all 3/4) like a foursome/fivesome. One girl really caught my eye, she had greenish/blue hair and a nice body. I spent most of my time on her.

Fragment
I was on the Island of Sodor, yeah Thomas The Tank Engine land and I saw loads of diesels in te work yards. I saw one truck tied to a train that was on a track next to the train. It was weird.

It was a fast morning making tea showering and getting to the post office n other places before work so of course i didnt have time to writedown my dream recall, so what i could recall was kind of blurry. I remeber that the main dream i had was involving zombies or a zombie like scenario it wasnt a very stressful dream i rember that I was pretty calm throughout the whole thing and dealt with things fine, although i cannot recall much at all right now.. I really want to start working on my luciidty test so i can incorporate them into my dreams more. I did listen to some audio pieces by stephen laberge, so many times i go through my dream without questioning the situations.. I'll get to sleep now..

I dreamt that I saw photos of me on Facebook that I never had seen before and I thought "Why can't I remember these photos?". I asked a friend and he said that I had probably got so drunk that I had forgot everything.
I thought that was most likely, but I discovered that I had done really weird things on that party and I begin to look for clues to understand the complete story. Like in the movie Hang over.

Then I was standing it felt like I woke up from that dream and I saw a man infront of me with a knife. He was about to attack me but I managed to take the knife from him and I stabbed him and I started to cry, because it was a horrible experience. Then I hear the police behind me they grab me and take me out of that house.

[COLOR="silver"]Then I woke up and was very relieved.[/COLOR]

I was in a gas station, being held prisoner in handcuffs and the orange jumpsuit. Inside the gas station were people I work with and the guys who were supposed to be watching over me were friendly. I was looking outside the window and a giant ass falcon flew in and landed on a pallet of 2-liter Pepsi bottles. I just stared at it, and it stared back at me. I walked up to one of the guys that was supposed to be watching me and asked if he could take the cuffs off, he said "yeah, it's not like you'll be going anywhere anyways."

Once the cuffs were off, I somehow got into my normal attire. I walked back to the window and the falcon was still there, like it was waiting for me to come back. Once I did, I stared at it again and just wanted to be outside with it, to touch it, to fly with it, just anything as long as it was with that falcon. It started pecking at the Pepsi bottles, making them spray on the windows. I stepped back a little, but then I started laughing because it was like he was playing a game or showing off for me.

I ran up to one of the guys that was supposed to be watching me again, and said "dude come check this shit out, this falcon is awesome." But the guy told me more or less to piss off since he was talking to a woman. Before I could go back to the falcon, a woman that I work with grabbed my hand and pulled me to her. She whispered in my ear "I can't believe he's talking to her, her breath smells like rotten shit and she has a weird build." I looked to the woman, thinking she looked fine, but to get away from the woman I told her "all us men need is something to stick it in and get off". She frowned and let go of me pretty quickly.

I went back to the falcon and saw that it had somehow filled up a child's swimming pool with the Pepsi and was laying back in it the way a human would sprawl out in one. But the Pepsi had turned white. It scooped the Pepsi up with its wings the way a human would with their hands, and poured the Pepsi on itself starting from the head and let it wash down its body. When the Pepsi hit the birds feathers, it started changing different colors of bright blues, greens, purples and yellows, and as it washed back into the pool, it created a rainbow effect of ripples.

All I knew was that I wanted to escape, but I felt like if I did, I'd be killed or something. So I just stayed, but then country music started playing, and I thought "all right fuck it, death would be fine right about now" and I started to take off for the door. But the same woman that had grabbed me before, grabbed me again and pulled me toward a dance floor that had appeared in the center of the gas station, and I was then thrown into the center of the stage where I bumped into a redneck tranny, or at least a cross dresser since I didn't want to find out, and I was forced to dance with him.

The whole time, I kept looking towards the door, and finally when the song ended, I took off for it, but never made it. I don't know if I was shot, or what, but either way, it was just bright lights and then I woke up.

Last night over my friends house, which is always when my oddest dreams occur. I was in the woods a few blocks from my house it was cold and I remembered feeling the freezing inches of snow beneath my bare feet that dug like needles through my skin. I don't remember specifically who saved me from the huge wolves that were lingering and waiting to hunt, I also don't remember how or when the wolves came in but I was running as my feet grew numb. I was suddenly however on the back of my pink cruiser bike with the girl who saved me, she had brownish red long wavy hair. Then like that we were at a vacant house; all I knew was that we were hidding from the wolves. I remembered the house was beautiful and I was in love with it, there was secret pathways to certain room etc. Suddenly, my sister in law comes, and I stab her with something long and thin... it goes through her jaw but there isn't any blood, just a hole of entry and exit. I do this at least three times, I no longer feel anything but afterward I just remember feeling frozen again and in horror at her face. A wolf gets into the house, and I wake up. I was honestly annoyed I woke up, the house was so enchanting and forbidden in woods that were never traveled, and everything seemed so perfect!

I don't remember anything from last night other than there were dreams, though part of me didn't want to remember my dreams. I was feeling really off emotionally, so I kind of let go of the lucid dream intent and even the remembering intent. I didn't feel like bringing any of that into my dreams even though I should have, I might have been able to process something or learn something.

I know I was dreaming. My insomnia was particularly bad. I went to sleep around 4 am, woke up around 8:30, went back to sleep around 11 am and woke up at 2:30. Ugh. My day is half over. It doesn't help that I am self employed either, there's nothing making me get up to go anywhere. :/
