Lucid Non-lucid

I'm being sedated for brain surgery. The IV is strangely inserted in my neck. I become lucid at almost the exact moment I fade into a second abyss due to the sedation. Whatever chemical they decided to employ radiates an unpleasant burning sensation. I'm in an awake sleep and watch them do whatever it was they were set out to do. It's finished. I'm watching them ease off the sedation. I'm discussing the sedation technique with the anesthesiologist. Surgery went well.

I'm exiting the building with another person. We're greeted by a black Cadillac, which for some reason appears to be mine. However I can't stop staring at giant hind frog legs which are attached to the trunk of the vehicle. I hope there's an alternative.

On a WBTB I'm greeted by a large face. The gender is undecipherable as is the race. The skin looks raw and painful. Whatever this person is they're in considerable pain. I watch as the person or thing continues to flood my ears with piercing screams. I'm about to act to subside the pain which will subside the screaming which will subside the ear splitting pitch but I stop myself. What right do I have to intervene? Maybe this person is being punished? What if they're not? Hrm. I decide to put the thing to sleep for a moment while I decide. My tactic isn't successful. I freeze time instead and walk over to a chair. It's actually a throne in what appears to be an underground cavern environment. I sit for a moment to ponder how I'd like to act. I wake before I find out.

"First Night at Dream World Academy"

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
(Ironically, I had almost forgotten this dream, upon waking. I'd gotten sidetracked, and it wasn't until a good 20 minutes after fully waking up, that I remembered the experience. Unfortunately, sooo many of the details feel lost (), but what I retained still left me with a feeling of total accomplishment.)

I don't really remember anything that happened in the beginning of this dream, and my timeline is a little disjointed, but I will put it together the best I can remember. The earliest memory I have is of having just realized I was dreaming, and trying to fly, somewhere out in the woods at night. I was having a lot of trouble flying, and I seemed to just be sinking back to the ground with normal gravity, whenever I tired to take off. I don't remember the point at which I actually was able to take control of my flight, but I was soon zooming out toward the coastline, having remembered my intention to try to find the Academy. The last few times that I had been searching for it, it was always on the water, so I figured the best way to find it was to just fly out over the ocean and will it to be there.

I overshot the shoreline, without pause, and continued out toward the dark horizon. The sky was this eerily-beautiful canvas of black, dark blue and purple, with the lightest colors having been pushed back beyond the coastline I was leaving; the last rays of setting sunlight behind me as I continued flying into the void, a few dozen feet above the water. The further out to sea I flew, though, the more uncomfortable I got. I could see that this deep, featurless, dark purple backdrop was beginning to project some detail in the sky. I could now see, thick, individual whisps of soft, purple/gray storm clouds, where there had once seemed to be none. (With my speed and low altitude, it felt a lot like the scene in Superman Returns, when he's flying out toward the kryptonite reef.) By this time, the sky was looking even more and more ominous, and I couldn't shake the foreboding notion that I was flying into something sinister. The puffy purple clouds - still barely visible against the dark backdrop - were beginning to swirl, and I half expected to see funnel clouds spike downward from them. Just on the horizon, I could see sporadic flashes of lightning on the water. I didn't like this at all. It's not secret that I'm pretty apprehensive about being way out in open water, in my dreams - because of my constant run-ins with sea monsters - and I realized that I was now out in the middle of nowhere, with no Academy in sight. More than a little intimidated by my new surroundings, I decided to turn around and fly back to the shore. (I have to go over the St. John's River Bridge, every night on my way home, and we've been having some pretty amazing-looking thunderstorms and cloud cover out here, lately. I'm thinking it might have been where the intense storm imagery over the water came from.)

Soon back on land, I began to think of other ways to find the Academy, and I remembered about the portals. At first, I looked around for any of the puddle / water-hole type puddles I had been using in previous dreams. When I didn't find any, immediately, I thought about doors. I began wandering around, going through various doorways and trying to 'will' myself into the Academy. Behind one door, in particular, I walked into the setting of a previous dream from over a year ago. It was a theme park that some friends and I had gone to for a Halloween Horror Nights type of occassion. The room that I had walked into was the lobby of one of their haunted houses. I remembered previous dream and that it had been pretty creepy, so I really didn't have any desire to stay here. When I turned around, though, the door that I had come through was gone, and I was standing in the middle of the haunted house lobby, with no sign of the wall that had just been behind me. A little uneasy about this - trying not to get distracted from my mission - I searched around for another door, spotting a little service door in the corner of the lobby. I walked over to the door and opened it...only to find another door, behind it. Behind that one, was another. I was beginning to get a little fed up with this.

I closed the door and focused on changing what was behind it. When I opened it again, the other door had vanished, and there was a dark, stone hallway, leading off into the distance. There was a soft light inside the corridor, but I don't recall what from. Stepping further into the hallway, I saw an opening on the other side, leading out into the night. When I stepped through the archway, I found myself outside, on the water, as if I had stepped out onto a concrete dock. I walked out away from the archway a bit and turned around, to get a good look at the structure from which I'd just emerged. It was a monstrous, stone building. It seemed a series a buildings, really, comprised of high towers and ramparts, various points in the seemingly-mideval architecture connected by high walkways and bridges. It looked like a great, dark castle, from down here. Immediately, I knew where I was; I had finally made it to the Dream World Academy! I walked along the narrow dock for a moment, looking for a main entrance. It was still nighttime, and it didn't look like there was much more than the moon lighting the outside of this place. Eventually, I came to a turn-off, and rounded it to see a gigantic stairway, comprised of what looked to be hundreds of steps, ascending toward a large set of double doors at the front of the Academy.

I started climbing the stairs, taking in the spectacle, and just now beginning to notice that there were other people milling about the outside of the building. Everyone seemed to just be doing their own thing, and not paying any particular attention to me, which was fine, because I really didn't want to disturb too much, my first time here. I just continued to watch everyone, while I walked up toward the doorway. About halfway up, I passed a small group of people on the stairway. It looked as if they were practicing magic or something, but I don't quite recall. When I got to the large doors, I stepped inside and into a main lobby. Inside the Academy was nearly as dark as the outside; the soft glow of a few, scattered torches fighting against the cool blue of the moonlight coming in through the windows and portals around us, for possession of the black shadows which still dominated the majority of the what could have been adequetely called a 'Great Hall' of sorts. The whole place had a very Harry Potter / Hogwarts kind of feel, outside of being quite dark and having a very 'pre-electricity' atmosphere.

Unfortunately, there is a lot beyond this point that I don't remember. Nothing too noteworthy, that I can recall. I vaguely remember just wandering the halls, talking to a couple of various DC's about the school, most of which were just practicing a few general abilities, here and there. I remember a portly old bald man being one of the instructors there, but I don't recall very much about him. The last memory I have of the dream is being out near the water again and trying to run back over the events in the dream, as a normally do, to try to help remember them upon waking.

[COLOR="silver"]Last day it was horror movie night at my school, so I watched The grudge and Insidious.
I was a little afraid that I would dream nightmares, but I haven't had nightmares for years so I was actually hoping to have one so I could become lucid. But no I didn't had any. This night I set an alarm to wake me up and force me to get out of bed.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="blue"]I dreamt something about me being on a really high skateboard ramp and it was really vivid, but then my WBTB alarm woke me up, so I realised that I had been dreaming.

I fell asleep again and I dreamt that I took Iphone photos on my friends from different angles and I met some friends that I appearntly knew.

Then I was in my school and had a blanket over me that I could look through and I sang something. Andriano my friend told me that he hadn't got his essay back and I said that I forgot to write his name on the essay we wrote together so I had got all the credit. I wrote his name on the paper too and then told what had happend to our teacher.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="silver"]Then I woke up. I think that the pillow speaker only can wake me up if I sleep light.
But sometimes I don't so I think I am going to use the iphones speaker and hopefully I don't disturb anyone else.[/COLOR]

Fragment
(Ugh. Completely lost a lucid dream. )

All I really remember is being in the middle of a huge fire-fight, in an office building type of setting. During the gunfight, there was an opposing team trying to storm into our office, and they were shooting through the cubicle walls that we were trying to take up shelter behind. I remember that they were beginning to flank around the sides of the barriers, and I tossed a grenade into one corner of the office, taking out a few of the first gunmen to breach our (shoddy) defense. Running out of places to shield myself, I became lucid. That liberating feeling of being in the thick of a dangerous situation - and then realizing it's all a dream - surged through me. Fearless, I jumped over what was left of my thin shield of wood and sheet metal, that was my cubicle wall, I walked toward the gunmen, threatening to them all that they must either throw down their guns and walk away, or I was seriously about to fuck them all up, single-handedly.

Don't remember anything that happened after that, though.

Fragment
I was at the summit of a huge mountain (which might have been Olympus, because I was focusing on the 'become a Greek God' Task of the Month), and fighting some giant, witch-like person/creature/thing. She had been chasing some girl (whom I think might have been MJ) and I through an roof-less corridor, toward the edge of the mountain, and then we would have to jump out of the way, at the last moment, to try to send her stumbling off of the cliffside. We actually failed at this, a time or two, and ended up falling off, ourselves. Then, the dream would 'reset' itself, and we would have to try again. The last time, all three of us went over the edge, and I was able to grab on to a ledge with one hand and help hold on to MJ with the other, while the witch plunged to her death.

Dream Fragment One
I had been having sex with either MJ or GV. I can't remember which, but it was soon afterward, that I was sitting at my computer, while she slept in the background, naked. Someone walked into the room to tell me something. The door had already been open, and once they relayed the message, they looked over to see the girl, sprawled out on the bed, and then quickly stepped out, closing the door behind him as if he was embarassed at what he'd seen.

Later, I was in some bar with a couple of friends. I believe that K (ROTC) was one of them. He got up on stage and began doing some karaoke, which I usually wouldn't be caught dead doing (despite the fact that I can sing fairly well), but seeing him up there kind of emboldened me to do the same. (Actually, I remember a Facebook post from K, the other day, where he was talking about getting a singing group together, just for the hell of it.). I don't think I ever got a chance to sing, though.


Dream Fragment Two
I really only remember on scene out of this. I was being chased by an enormous, armored horse and rider, through a path in the woods. The horse was about the size of an elephant, and the muscular rider was fairly preportional. The horse continued to charge, as if it was looking to run me down, as a matter of its own, personal satisfaction. At some point during the chase, I was seeing myself from a third person perspective, and it was almost like I was 'guiding' myself through the woods. It felt like I was playing a video game, and I was the avatar. I don't remember ever actually have a controller or anything, but I noticed how hard it was to kind of 'control' myself, like the avatar wasn't very responsive to where I want to go, and it was really cumbersome to keep distance between my pursuer and myself.

"O Goes to the Movies"

I was hanging out with a bunch of people, in a huge lake or pond type of setting, set next to a large, stone building. We would climb up on the outside of the building and do backflips off of the wall and into the water. There was a whole lot in this dream that I don't remember at all, but it was while we were playing here, in the water, that I became lucid. The water was very murky, and you really couldn't see below the surface. Somehow, feeling a little apprehensive about the low visibility, I'd become aware (or just anticipated) that one of my friends was going to try to scare me by acting like there was something swimming in the water with us. No sooner did I get this presumption, than I felt someone brush up against my leg and suddenly grab one of my ankles. Having expected it, though, it didn't really startle me at all.

Having had my fill of swimming, I levitated myself up out of the water and floated off to another building. The day seemed to change to night, around this time. There is a lot of this part that I don't remember, but there was some chaotic scene going on, involving angels and demons. I want to say it was a battle, but I'm not too sure. However, one particular moment I remember is being on a rooftop and looking at my shadow, which was cast on a nearby wall. Apparently, I had been one of the demons. When I raised my hands up, I could see that I had a pair of huge, bat-like wings and what looked to be horns, in my shadow.

There was another set of transitions, here, and I remember a short scene, where I was walking up to the front of a house. It was still night time, and I could just barely make out a figure that was lurking around the house. It was a man, and the moment he saw us approaching (I have the feeling I was walking with someone, but I can't remember who), he suddenly bolted to a nearby, waiting car and sped off.

Another transition (or gap in memory) occurred, and the next thing I remember is being a bbq with family and friends - my lucidity having pretty much left me, by now. There were a bunch of games being played at the gathering, and one of which was a match-making or kissing booth type of game, but I can't remember which.

The next thing I remember is being in a movie theater, with my friends and family from the earlier bbq. I don't remember exactly what got me back on track, but my lucidity kicked back in, while in the theater, waiting for the movie to start. Someone had asked me if I'd won any games at the bbq, and I answered 'no'. Overhearing the conversation, a bunch of other people started ridiculing me, for having not won anything, and I believe it was this ridicule, that reminded me that this was all just a dream (though I'm not exactly 100% positive that it was that particular reason). I scoffed at them and told them that I didn't care about those games, because I had 'more important skills, than winning at some silly game'. Taking this as the perfect time to show off my lucidity, and wow this critical crowd, I raised a hand to the ceiling and focused on the lights, dimming them and brightening them with a simple, mental command. Everyone was immediately silent with amazement. I could tell by the looks in the eyes of those nearest to me, that it was also making them uncomfortable. I said something like "oh, that's not all," and I rose to my feet, looking up toward the window to the projector room. I focused on the beam of light coming out of the window, and made the entire projection flicker on and off with a few waves of my hand, showing all of the DC's that I had full control over this theater, with my mind.

Suddenly, a large portion of the crowd started screaming in fear and running for the exit, acting as if I was some sort of evil sorcerer, or something, here to steal their souls. I thought the whole thing was hilarious, and just kind of laughed while the people ran. In the mix of it all, though, there were attractive girls, a few rows down, who had been eyeing me, during my antics. One of them was whispering something to the other, and kept looking back at me, giggling. Finally, she got up and sauntered up the aisle toward me, frightened movie goers pushing their way around her. Having sat back down, I looked up at her and grinned. She smiled back and sat down on my lap, saying that she wanted me, and something about how she was good at getting what she wanted. I laughed and played it nonchalant with her. We talked for a little bit, and my lucidity started fading again.

The last thing I remember is the girl introducing me to her adorable little girl - who pretty much came out of nowhere. The little girl and I hit it off pretty well, and we were all laughing and playing around with each other, after most everyone else had left the theater.

I'm on my way to sleep when I see this huge goldfish swimming circles around my bed. It's about 3 feet long, and it's just swimming there in my HI. Normally I don't get HI like this, but it was off the charts today. After that it slowly turned into a mermaid, and then I tried to get out of bed, and woke up

Finally I find myself in a dream. I'm in some dark old abandoned mansion with about three to four other people, and we all have weapons. There are werewolves in this house, and everyone is afraid to go. I man up, and tell them I will be the point guy, and everyone follows me. We travel down this long hallway, and then it splits off in to two. (I head right just like in my previous dream) and everything seems too quiet. We were all armed to the teeth with weapons, and I had my fatigues on as well.

We came across two rooms that looked completely trashed. Pillows were ripped, the bed was ripped, and there was stuffing scattered about. Broken chairs, lamps and tables matched the bed perfectly. The second room was about the same except there was a corps in there. He had no head, and the blood that hung down his chest was close to hemolizing, but not all the way. It twinkled as the flash lights of my squad mates surveyed the area.

Suddendly I whispered loudly "turn off your lights, it's still here!". Soon as the lights went out, all hell broke loose. I don't remember what gun I was shooting at, but I was firing from the hip, and not letting up. The werewolf rushed me and kept taking the blows. There was a rattle of machine gun fire that rang out between each of my blasts, and just when it got close to me, it dropped dead.

We continued on a little less cautiously, but I had the feeling that wasn't the end of it. As we made our way down the hall, not even to the next room, we were suddenly attacked. Obviously it's heading straight for me again this time. Flashing it's long sharp teeth and yellowish eyes, the brown behemoth pounced at me. It was almost as the volley of bullets that were sent to his back only propelled him even farther. I dodged, and ran in the direction he came from. As he hurried towards me, I ran backwards and continued shooting him. He must have been smarter and stronger than the previous one because he took my squad mates out one by one as he passed them. Soon we're running in circles and I really don't think I'm going to make it. Finally he gets to me......


I wake up in another part of the mansion, as if I've respawned. The rest of the crew was there looking unscathed. The first thing that came out of my mouth was spreading out and being mobile. I woke up (in SP) before we could start our journey all over again

Jamie?


I was working at a store with her. I remember her mopping or something but wanting to find another job... so she left. then I went out looking for her for some reason.

walking

I was walking with my brother or something. We were trying to find a store and were walking by some mountain. We saw the store up ahead but there was another building blocking it. My brother commented that the store looked different than before. We tried to go around the building in front of us but I remembered a secret passageway to get there. I remember going through a long hallway or something and finding some wierd guy there. My memory ends here.

Bug viewing

I was with someone at my inner world house. I think it was asuka with me. I was sitting on a couch watching some fly on a coffee table. The fly was really big and had beetle wings. It started flying in the air and govered in front of us and then did some wierd motion with it's wings. it sort of danced. and the effect was that some other fly similar to it became agitated and flew directly at the bug. They started fighting... or mating I couldn't tell in mid air.

Then I noticed we were actually outside sitting on a small cliff and the wall in front was another higher cliff. More bugs seemed to join in on the fight. And suddenly I saw a big bir perched on the branch sticking out of the cliff. then I noticed more birds joining to watch the fight. I had a thought or someone told me telepathically that the birds were very wise creatures and if some flowerpetals blew off of a tree and landed near someone that they saw it as an omen about the person. I looked at the big bird again and noticed it had grown even more with a long neck with skin that seemed to hang down from it's beak. It looked really whacked.

As if on cue some cherry blossom flower petals flew off a tree and landed on me blocking my vision. I heard a very large bug behind me and I couldn't see. The big but hit the back of my neck and I woke up with a jerk.

Pleasant

I was walking inside a wal mart or something. and I ran into some girl who seemed to know me. She was short with blond hair tied back... but she had some wierd red patch on her face like an allergic reaction or something. I found her cute though and she started talking to me. We held hands and walked around for a while. She kept saying that I was such a nice person. She never met anyone that was as nice and good natured as me. I was really pleased and just enjoyed the sensation of walking and holding her hand while we talked. We went near outside in the lobby I was going to kiss her but I woke up.

Semi lucid

I'm with Kaitlinn in my inner world and we are walking outside. We near this cliff and we are talking. I sit the wrong way and almost slid off of this huge cliff. I was screaming for help but the girl just sat there as if oblivious to my predicament. She was watching me try to grab onto a branch to pull myself upp. but the branch was loose and just came out of the dirt. I was about to fall off...

I suddnely found myself inside with asuka. I knew that the part where I was going to fall off the cliff was a dream. I wanted to get back to myself and make him lucid... if that made any sense. and then he could fly. I began to run out of the house when I woke up.

last night i had a dream i was in a shopping centre with my mates and we had fell out because we had not kept in touch, it was as if a fight was going to break out but nothing came of it, i tried to get to a certain part of the shopping centre but every time i went round a corner it was different, the dream lasted quite long but i dont remember much about it now.

other parts to the dream:-
it was very vivid
i was trying to get to the person i dont keep in touch with but couldnt get him to listen to me.

-Waking life

Resting in my bed I think I fell asleep, next thing I know my whole body is shaking, I wasn't even trying to WILD
My soul get's out of my body and it spins rapidly, ending up into a wormhole or w/e switching me into a dream.

-Lucid(I think only semi-lucid)

I was instantly lucid I looked around to see where I was, I was in some random scenery again. I forgot about most what happened but it wasn't nice, the only thing I remember that I was running from a phychopatic pony from MLP that had a knife and wanted do disect me or w/e ending to chase me away into a closet where I hid curling up againt the wall of it. At that point my right eye vision was gone, I could only see with my left eye. After a while of saying "wake up wake up!" while cuddling a pillow TIGHTLY, the door opened and the pony said something then swung the knife at me, I think it missed but right as I panicked I "Woke up"

-Still semi-lucid

I woke up at bed at dad's I stood up and I saw someone standing there, I don't remember who it was but nobody familiar I think, apparanly in dream he was. I talked a bit to him and we jumped on some "Glowing platform" that moves from left to right and then repeats when it get's at end. Then we were standing in a room playing some sort of a game I don't remember. What I remember saying is "I loved the times in Primary school the most... back when we were all together, school wasn't such a pressure...maybe we could make a sort of a get together?" he replied "Hah, and what pay for it ourselves?" I said "No,no, everyone gives a bit and all that".

It was obvious, I'm missing company of friends. I woke up after that.

I remembered the whole dreams the whole morning, but since I didn't get to write any of it down until now, I have forgotten most of the dreams and now only have parts of them .

The first interesting thing is that today being the day after I decided to try lucid dreaming again I woke up precisely at 4:34 AM. When I saw the time, I wondered if this was the same time I used to get up 2 years ago to do my WBTB WILDs that were never successful. I checked my offline alarms and there it was! "4:34 AM WILD Recurrent Alarm". I thought that was Extremely awesome so I took it as an opportunity to try it again.

(The dream I had at that time that I woke up had to do with arguing or something, which is understandable because I fell asleep in a not-so-good mood.)

Anyway, after waking up at 4:34, I got up, woke myself up completely, and then went back to bed to try WILDing. Unfortunately, I just got really scared because the day before, I watched 'The Fourth Kind' and I always get scared the most by scary movies at night when I'm alone. So I decided to go downstairs and watch TV instead to help clear my mind of any negativity, where I fell asleep and had a dream:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first part of the dream that I remember is where I am in the online game world of 'AION'. I'm wearing some nice light armor and using a Bow and Arrows to train on large pigs or something. I am in a beautiful overgrown enchanted forest, and I recall being in very similar dreams before. There are many other Elyos training with me. They seem to be very focused on the kill while I am mostly just enjoying the feeling of being one with the deep enchanted forest. It is quiet and so so peaceful.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next part of the dream that I remember is where I am in a nice apartment building that is apparently my friend's, Sarah's. This apartment building is huge and beautifully decorated. The carpet is red, and all rooms are cozy and comfortable. I am going back up the elevator to Sarah's home. I can't recall which floor she's on. I pick 5. I walk out the elevator. I walk down the hall and turn to my left where there is a huuge room with winding stairs along the curved walls. The stairs are wooden with gold in some parts, and the steps are of an elegant deep red carpet. The walls are of a warm brown colour I think, perhaps it was dark wood. There are traditional candles lighting up the walls and a beautiful cristal chandelier on the center of the room. There is also some furniture, but I can't recall exactly what and where it was.
I start walking up the stairs, confused about where I'm supposed to find Sarah's apartment. A boy that is a year younger than me runs up the stairs, catches up with me, and asks me if I'm lost. He looks like this Asian-American guy from last year's English class that I had a crush on, but I don't question if it is actually him or someone who looks like him.
I lie down on the stairs, stare up at the ceiling, sigh and say "yeah. I'm trying to find my friend's, Sarah's apartment, but I forgot everything about where it might be."
He lied down next to me and stared up at the ceiling with me. "hmm." He said. "I think she's on the <don't remember> floor."
"Yeah, that's what I thought too, but I didn't see her there."
"Maybe her apartment will show up if you check again?"
"Yeah. For now I think I'll just enjoy this view of the stars." (Somehow the ceiling was the starry sky at this point)
The stars were just as I'd remembered them at the cottage last Summer. They gave off almost the same enchanted feeling that the dense forest gave off from the Aion portion of the dream - but I only acknowledged this while studying the dreams after waking up.

Then I think I get up and search more with that guy. We talk while we search, at one point we end up on the roof top where we get a beautiful view of the stars - which is also the landscape somehow... The stars are the view below us as well is what I mean. This does not seem strange to me however. I simply enjoy the peacefulness of everything. Then we continue searching, and eventually we find what I've been looking for. Sarah's apartment! Which ends up being my family's and my apartment. It looks very very nice. I question the strangeness of how it is my apartment a little, but get preoccupied with my mom asking me to do some things. The guy is gone. I saw Sarah there, but couldn't know exactly where she was, it was as if she was an apparition, but I did not question it. We had food that I recall thinking of being very good food but can't remember what the food was or tasted like.
A part of this dream also exists where I meet my brother's fiancee's sister, who in real life I've been told has eyebrows that make her look angry all the time, and I find out (in the dream) that my brother dated her before too. :/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last part of the dream that I recall was at some desert place that I can compare to what I think of Area 51. There are about 7 nuclear balloons floating in the sky that are in danger of exploding!! Each nuclear balloon is responsible for the energy in almost each continent of the world - Africa, North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and not Antarctica! The seventh balloon is called "THE WORLD." It is presumed that if any of these balloons blow up, their respective areas will be be blown up also. Meaning if the World balloon blew up, that would mean the end of the world.
For some reason my Dad is there with me. He runs to the gunner on the right and aims at the largest balloon (label unknown ) while I stand there motionless watching the action.
The dream switches to first person shooter mode, where I am my Dad shooting at the balloons. There is a bar on the top left corner showing the remaining life of the balloon I am shooting. For some reason, shooting the balloons will keep them from exploding. I acknowledge that the life bar may perhaps indeed prove the opposite, but I ignore this fact and do what I think I have been instructed to do! I keep shooting the balloon.

:edit: I just searched for the balloons that were in the dream and they looked exactly like this one, but only the balloon part, not the basket:



This turns out to be a 1861 civil war balloon. Interesting huh. (I've never seen this balloon before in my life, and in the dream I was shooting at it) Seeing as I was my Dad in this part of the dream, shooting at the balloons for illogical reasons I knew not of, I think it could have been a past life of my dad.

(That nuclear balloon part of the dream did not have that enchanted feeling like the other parts had. It was more of a thrilling happy feeling)

Then I wake up.

Im somehow in indonesia very late at night. In my friend pierces van on the streets. we are just parked in the street in some weird traffic thing. Chris tyler pierce and omar are there. we want to get hash or something so i call someone in australia and ask them. i forget if he even answers. my friends are outside of the van and im going to sleep. For some reason something is sexual but i just go to sleep. when i go to sleep im mostly conscious and after a bit i wake up and write this.

Ah now i remember some more.

Unity.
I was going to get a tattoo of the symbol for unity that i have created. I remember while still dreaming that my friend was about right now in indonesia and planning on getting a flower tattoo...


It seems i frequently have these dreams that i achieve half lucidity but dont go further because a thought that ill just wake up or its just a day dream etc come into my head for some reason. i have just identified this.

Ahhh, Kazm, good times, good times. A little backstory, Kazm was the first band I was ever in. When it comes down to it we were really just a bunch of mates jamming. Over our 2 year career we only played 3 or 4 shows, but they were badass, we all played really bad and the band and crowd always had a generally bawesome time. You couldn't blame us for being bad, we had zero experience, me and the drummer were the only band members who could really play all that well, but who cares, we were just kids.
I am in a room I have never seen before, but the 'look' of the place reminded me of the aesthetic of my school. There were 3 amplifiers in the corner, 2 boring looking amps and my epic marshall. And a table in the middle of the room. My bandmates are all there, it appears we are about to play a show. We talk about something and then a tough looking black guy dressed like a bouncer/bodyguard or whatever, walks in and says 'We should really get going now.' I believe one of my bandmates says something like 'Show time!' Then everybody started walking towards a door in the corner. I panic and shout 'FUCK! What's the setlist?' Tom turns to me and says some random word that I don't recognise. So I reply 'You mean we're going to just try and jam and fail epicly?' and Tom nodded. I told a bunch of roadies who were standing around to grab my marshall and bring it down for me. I go through the door in the corner and down some stairs and end up in an elongated version of my school's sports hall. There is a stage at the other end of the hall, but the audience is sat down in chairs that are arranged like a maze. When I finally reach the stage I hear Mrs Stoker say 'Now...Performing...' and then some random band name, so I figure we must be performing in a talent show. I climb some stairs and walk past the stage and into the backstage area. My bandmates are already there and are rehearsing. There is a small hole in the back wall of the backstage area that leads into a random music shop, which was like heaven to me, there was a wall with masses and masses of packs of guitar string with different guages and stuff. I was so caught up in how amazing this shop was that I didn't hear Mrs Stoker announce Kazm and the rest of the band went out and played without me, which I didn't mind cause I wasn't warmed up and wasn't ready to play anyhow. I spent the rest of the dream in the shop just browsing the epicness of everything.

My recall was terrible last night so I only remember a short fragment which is too bad. But I think in general it is getting a lot better. (3 months ago I couldn't even remember any dreams.)

I'm still at only 1 lucid but all day awareness and RCs are definitely helping, I actually ended up doing an RC in one of my dreams the other night but I never became lucid.

Anyway, still practising. My goal is to achieve lucids almost everyday, which would be amazing. Definitely trying to make it happen.

Anyway, that's it for today!

-Cheers!

Fragment 1
I’m in a train station bathroom in Portugal with a guy named Sandro. We had to wait for the train so we used the bathroom in the meantime. The bathroom looked very dark. I remember being really hot and dry so I took off my shirt and put it underneath the tap. Sandro asked what I was doing but we soon realised the train was here so we rushed out of the bathroom and got on this red – looking, double decked bus; Similar to the ones seen in London.
I had a glasses case with me on the station platform just before we got on. The glasses case held our tickets. Sandro just rushed on the tram heading upstairs while I showed the woman who was driving our tickets. Sandro looked quite surprised. I guess he was surprised that I actually still held the tickets because he thought I lost them.

When we get off the tram, we are at the beach. I see one of my friends from school, Alex and say hi to him. The station we get off at looks very much like a beach area. I remember it being sunny and quite busy.

Just got back into this whole dreaming malarky, so I'll upload all the dreams I never got around to typing up before I took a break.
(There is definately something missing here, I could remember it when I first woke up.) I have just walked out onto a field, possibly from school. The field reminds me of the Aston Fields (My old middle-school.) playing field. But with a road running through the half of the field on my left. I notice a small red motorbike at the other side of the field. I immediately realise that the bike is the new Metallica album. (What... the... fuck?) and start sprinting towards it. Now I am close to the motorbike, and watch it change into a red car and then a red house as I get closer. A menu appears in my vision, I believe it was the album's song-list, the album was called Echobrain.

October 17, 2011

I'm honestly not sure where this dream came from or why I had this dream. I haven't written dreams down since October 14, which was a school day. See, I write these on the bus to school. *I was planning to write my Friday night dream on Sunday when I was in church, but other things came up.*

My memory of this dream is very vague. I'm going to just post random segments, which is something I didn't want to do.*

In the beginning, I think my whole family was in jail. There were a pair of twins who joined my family, but only one of them went to jail. The other stayed out, and I spent the entire dream wondering if it was the evil one. They also had their own Tommy Guns. I kept thinking about a show I never even watched, The Cramp Twins, though one of them is not blue...nor is the other one.*

*Someone was in the maximum security prison in the middle of the ocean, and I felt this odd desire to rescue him. So, I was driving across the ocean on a motorboat, the free twin was with me, his Tommy Gun ready to shoot.*

*There was a giant white building just...there. When we got closer, a bunch of giant green monsters were there, and his Tommy gun didn't do anything. We just sped past them and reached the gate. *For whatever reason, the gate was open, beckoning us in. Once we got in, I took a look around. The walls around us never seemed to have an end, lengthwise or heightwise. There were jail cells on top of each other and next to each other.*

We began to walk down the hallway, looking for the guy we were here to rescue. As I approached a door, at least one hundred guards greeted us with guns and swords. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a sword longer than my leg. The kid and I fought the guards, in an epic clash. He had to deal with the shooting guards, and no one with a gun tried to shoot anyone with a sword. For some reason, I was pretty good at fighting with a sword, especially against a bunch of highly-trained guards.*

**Once we killed them all, we wandered in to the Big Room. The man we were here to save was lying on a table, tied to it. He was hairy, thin as a bone, and dying. We lifted him on the boat, and escaped. The monsters chased after us, and wouldn't stop gaining speed. So, I threw the kid at them, thinking it to be the evil one. The man and I escaped unscathed.*

There was more to the dream, where I explored the jail in more detail and found some interesting things, but I'm gonna fast-forward to the end.*

I was lying in my bed, when the other twin was on top of me suddenly, yelling "CRAMP TWINNNNNNNN!". Then he shot me.*
