So i was in some house up in the mountains.i walked around and saw ma old man sitting in a chair. for some reason it felt like i knew him and i wasnt scared or anyhting. i was there for a little then he said lets get in the car and we started to drive down the mountain. he ended up at some factory were the press stuff together. he droped me off and left. i just wandered around there for a little while. then i had the feeling i need to leave so i just jumped on to some random semi in this shop and drove away. next thing i know im in this jungle like area in a war. this was the most vivid part of the dream. i was in a big group walking by some lake. then some one yelled open fire. i saw a huge gruop of enemy's coming across some trail ahead of us. i started shooting at them. it was really cool actually. i ran out of ammo and asked a few people for a clip. then we hiked for a little more then the trail narrowed and there were a ton of bad guys around the corner. i was randomly shooting then i saw a bad guy seeking up behind me. i turned and blew his face off. there was so much blood and guts. then i saw people retreating. i ran into the lake next to the commander guy. i told him i didnt want to die yet. then i asked him were was my bullet proof vest. i dont remember what he said. then i got scared and took off. i wanted to go back to that old guys house but i didnt have a car. so i just ran up into the mountains i keep running and running then i woke up
So last night was another failure for LD but i still think I'm improving as i have been able to remember my dreams 3 nights in a row.. So last night i tried the D.I.L.D technique again but it didn't work. I was thinking of going to a door and trick or treating to complete this months easy challenge but instead i found myself playing football with some of my friends from cyprus. The football was really harsh for some reason. There was a lot of brutal gameplay.. But i can only remember those facts of the dream. In my opinion LD for me is around the corner.
Yesterday, I had some Vitamin B6 before going to bed for the first time and I really had some amazingly vivid dreams. Sadly none of them got me lucid, but they were still pretty neat. The first one I remember, starts around a bunch of surgeons preparing for a surgery. I learn that we're about to do a heart transplantation, but everybody takes it like it's a routine thing. When we get into the surgery room, I recognise the head surgeon as my RL chef at a retirement home and the heart of the patient, a girl of around 20 years, has already been removed. I get the heart in my hands while someone tells someone else that I, "Number 3" are only here to do minor side tasks. I wind up having a piece of the removed heart in my mouth and sucking around on it while I'm in a conversation with two other surgeons at the end of the room. As I spit the heart out, I get called to the action, where the girl is apparently in bad shape. I assume the new heart was already in, but her breathing was really shallow and her heartbeat went south. The head surgeon told me to "Save her! Reanimate!" but I couldn't get any CPR together. The surgery now suddenly got teleported from a room to outdoors in something that looks a little like a carport, with people walking by. My ex-ex-ex-ex-girlfriend comes along, talking on her cellphone. I try to stop her and get the phone, but she ignores me. Eventually, I reach into a bag with loads of medication in it, packaged a little like those cookies you get when you order coffee at italian restaurants. I find something labeled "Life Retter" ("Retter" is German for "saver" in this case and yeah, it was bilingual) and "Opium". This gave me an idea. "We could give her opiates to free her lungs and clear her breathing.", I suggested and the head surgeon actually did it. Now IRL that seems like a rather counterproductive idea, since the Codein she got is an antitussive, and when her lungs are full of some shit, giving her something that supresses her cough reflex is just, well... The Codein worked though, as within seconds, she started breathing normally again and even regained consciousness. I recall that at some point, we looked through some photographs of her. Then I remember a small fragment at the end of the dream, with me lying in bed with my girlfriend. She asks me how today was and who we performed surgery on. I tell her I can't say any names but that I already saved a life "on my first day". She looks at me with an indescribable "Ohhhh get outta here" face. Dream number two takes place at my girlfriends apartment, but only the entry door looks familiar to RL, the rest is completely rearranged. Sitting here as I type, it was also probably quite a bit bigger in the dream. I was in bed with her and some other guy I didn't recognize. We're watching TV, when I made some horrible, horrible joke. The guy chuckled, my girlfriend didn't and I started getting kinda pissed at this entire situation. At some later point, the other guy said something and my girlfriend reacted to it immensly, used it to make fun of me and told him how "sweet" he was. I turned to my girlfriend with words to the likes of "Now you're totally kidding me, right? You have got to be fucking with me at this point. Jesus Christ, do whatever you want. I don't give a shit.". Then I turned around and fell asleep. When I woke up, the other guy was in a room next door and the doorbell rang. Since it was in the middle of the night I was concerned and asked my girlfriend if I should come with her to the door. She declined and came back later with a bag full of medications. Proudly she told me "Now we've got something against everything, both prescription and without!" and I seemed to recall she wanted to operate kind of a private pharmacy and sold the drugs. I took the bag to the RL bedroom that was empty in the dream and looked through it for a while. When I got back to the room with the bed in it, the other guy was gone and I found my girlfriend masturbating spread eagle on the bed. Nice sight. There's a gap in my memory, but then there's the next morning and she's at school. I leave the apartment and walk down into the city. I meet two old friends of mine who suggest that when you burn flowers, it's good when you have a stuffed nose (which I have IRL at the moment). I find this interesting and pick up the first flower I see. Out of fear that the owner of the garden I picked it from might see and follow me, I walk a different route than the direct one back home, but halfway there, I lose the flower somehow, so I pick another one. It's a sunflower. I do the same avoidance thing again, eventually winding up on the small street running along before the front of our school complex, meeting a girl I went to school with and a teacher. The teacher asks me wether happen to be walking up the street and then between the two gyms, which I'm not. At this point, the sunflower suddenly starts behaving like a parachute, being dragged around by the wind. It gets really hard to hold on to it, much less walk with it in hand. I get about ten meters, then I lose hold of it and it flies(!) away. The dream ends. The last notable dream I recall takes place in school. As I mentioned before, I'm out of school since early summer this year. I have nothing to do, so I visit some friends who are still in school. I recall only some of them actually existing in reality. A couple of friends then drag me into class to spend an hour there. It's German class, apparently, but the teacher actually teaches math and physics IRL. The lesson is about some short story about a girl who drifts off in thought during class. I remember that a point about it was that she referred to the teacher in the story exclusively as the "vulture" and something else as a "god", I forgot what though. I chatted with friends in class and actually paid attention to the teacher. At some point I started feeling really terrible and started to miss these times, wishing I could get back in school. With this feeling, the dream ends.

I was in a dark room where people where being brainwashed into doing bad things. Me and my friend managed to escape and he dissapeared from the dream for a while. I was captured and was then taken back to the room, to be brainwashed. I resisted for as long as I could but in the end it got me. Basically there's a light that shines down from somewhere and a woman's voice says stuff. I left and bumped into someone, then I became semi-lucid, I started to fly around like Movie Ironman as thats the only way I can fly. Then I was chased by that man all around my area to the park.
[COLOR="red"]Lucid[/COLOR] [COLOR="blue"]Dream[/COLOR] [COLOR="silver"]Thoughts[/COLOR] [COLOR="lightblue"]Hypnagogic[/COLOR] [COLOR="silver"]This night I used a rope instead of my elbow, to cover my eyes. If you want to try this, just use something to cover your eyes that gives a slight pressure on the eyes, not much, but just to make you unable to open they eyes. A sleeping mask just cover the eyes, but I can still open the eyes. So I lay in my bed on my back and started daydreaming and think about my day, then I got to the random thought stage again. I remember that my body started working against me and giving me unfomrotable sensations of giving up, and as usual I couldn't resist them. So in a reflex I got out of bed and throw the uncovered my eyes. This was a good attempt, because I didn't fell asleep unconsciously and I could still focus on my thoughts, so all I need now is just a little patience while doing this and I might experience some non-physical sensations.[/COLOR] [COLOR="blue"]I dreamt about a girl named Olivia. In this dream we were a couple and we took happy pictures of us on her macbook. I remembered that I was bothered with my hairstyle, so I had to fix it over and over again. I also remember that we had a videoconversation with my classmates Martin and David. Then I was on a bus, don't remember what happend next though. I were on a theater with my class, we complained over the seats, because we could only hear the actors not see them.. But then they changed scene and we were in a perfect seat and all the other had to change seats instead. Weird dream as usual so it's not even explainable.[/COLOR] [COLOR="silver"]I didn't woke up from my WBTB alarm.. and the EILD alarms wasn't loud enough for me to hear, for some strange reason. So the next night I will make my WILD attempt before bed and then hopefully I will wake up to the WBTB.[/COLOR]

05.10.2011Successful WILD! Trick or Treat and Questions About My Dream Guide (WILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I wake up at 8:24, from a dream about meeting a girl. I spend about 10 minutes writing it down, and lay on my front just to sit and think about the dream for a while. All of a sudden - BAM - I'm hit with a massive wave of vibrations. I of course, decided to go with it - and I decided to try using an AP exit technique. I stayed still, allowing the vibrations to deepen, and started visualising pulling up on a rope, and pulling myself out of my body. The vibrations intensified, and the lowered briefly. I kept going with the visualisation until I really felt myself start to slip out. Infront of my eyes, a hallucination started. I saw a CRT computer monitor, perfectly square, with a bunch of symbols on the screen, one was a clown face, then others just squares, spheres, a pyramid. I began to feel the vibrations lower, and the hallucination solidified properly. I asked it - "Who is my dreamguide?" A picture of my cat appeared on the screen. I asked again "Who is my dreamguide?" A picture of the music teacher from the Simpons appeared, an older man with grey hair around the sides. It is possible that I asked again - but I can not remember correctly if I received a reply. I decided here to take a chance - I wasn't sure how deep in the dream I was, and I didn't know if I would wake if I tried to move. I threw off my covers and stood up. I could feel my body but I couldn't see - am I awake? My eye mask fell down on my face, and I shifted it, and took it off - my bedroom appeared before me. It was night, I stood in the middle of my room, I looked in the mirror - whoa I look weird, I must be in the dream. I tried to count my fingers but it wasn't working - screw it. I plugged my nose and breathed in and out, I forgot how much fun this was! I used body awareness to stabilise further - centering myself into the dream. Oh! The Task of the Month! I faced my bedroom door, "Trick or Treat!" I said, and opened the door. It was just my family room - nothing abnormal and nothing to receive. Damn. I walked up the hallway to my parent's room. "TRICK OR TREAT!" - I reached out and went to slide the door open, and it flew off as though I had kicked it down - awesome! Inside, they are both asleep. Dad rolls over and turns on a lamp next to his bed, and I notice that as the lights come on it becomes day - that saved a bit of effort. I walk over and stand next to my mum's side of the bed, Dad rolls over and searches next to his bed. I look at my hands - I needed to shape shift aswell, one of the gods? Zeus. I try and make a large lightning bolt in my hand, but get a blue glow and a few sparks. I don't even know how to shapeshift! I'll just do it later. "So who IS my dreamguide?" I ask Mum starts talking about something strange - about how when someone is sick, there is an association people make with them within society. She's rummaging through a small box, and I see a pillow with an apple sticker with "Sick - Sam" written on it - probably from my cousin being sick here sometime. Is that what she's talking about? I still don't understand. I end up holding my luggage bag - what dad was searching for over the edge of his bed - my trick or treat gift. I use the texture of the leather on the handle to stabilise while I talk. I didn't look in the bag. "Who is my dreamguide?" I ask again. "Well, you've been told.. me, cats," my Dad replies "Yeah, uh.." "Old Man Fudd" - a reference to the Simpsons music teacher - that's not his name. "And who else, I can't remember! I can't remember!" The dream instantly dissapears as I wake up drawing a sharp gasp. The messages in this dream were quite confusing. I'm not sure what to think of it. I've always thought of my cats as highly spiritual beings, but I've never thought of them as helping me with my dreaming. My father isn't my dreamguide, but has led me spiritually throughout my life. The music teacher, with greying hair is interesting though. In the last lucid before this, I became lucid after an older man, in a police car yelled out to me 'Isn't this weird, Alex?!' When I think back through my dreams, I can note significance of an older man. He was there when I questioned my dad if I could learn to fly, he was there when I landed from my first power slide, he was there when I met Alex for the second time. I feel that he could play a significant role in my dreams, though I haven't spoken to him more than once. I will continue to find my dream guide, speak to Alex again and find out more about this old man.

I was in my an English class with only two or three other people. It was dimly lit and had all sorts of interesting nick knacks scattered throughout the class room. I think we were in some sort of elite English class or something. It was the first day of my new class, and I walked in the last of everyone. The weird thing was that it felt like the first time I met my English teacher even though I've been in class with her almost every other day for the past year or so. I can't remember exactly what we were discussing either. I remember it was late in the day too, so it might have been an after school club or something...
I remember running away from something at this compound and it was really scary and so I ran out to this area to where this guy was at and I asked him to call a chopper in to get me out of here. So one cane and the guy said it would take a while, so the pilot began to circle the area and he was taking a while and when he was gonna land his nose hit The ground and it like was a plane now so me and this kid ran into a ditch to stay covered. I then asked the guy if we could get farther away. The kid told me it was a bad idea.

I was leading children through a red river to avoid capture...One of the children was my boyfriend's younger sister, Destinnee. I was suddenly snatched in a net by someone...I can't remember who. However, I cut my way out and jumped into the river to escape. I swam underneath a bridge and Destinee tried to pull me out of the water onto land with the rest of them. However, I was dragged away as I tried to pull myself onto shore. This triggered me to awaken. 10/5/11 All I recall was thinking I was awake and going through the motions when, all of a sudden, I was in a field and saw crop circles made to be the faces of my friends. I can't remember anything else besides this. END ENTRY.

Finally a long and memorable dream in full technicolour. I was in a typical open plan office where several people were working, I knew them to be the offices of the "One to One" Web Hosting Company and I was looking for some leaflets to take with me. As I walked around the offices, (which I think was based on Quarry House where I used to work), I could see the staff staring at me. I continued 'round noting two small tower computers and thinking to myself that that must be where they store everybodys web sites. On my second circuite I found that there were fewer members of staff, but I did meet a pretty ladywith dark brown curly hair dressed in smart casual clothes. She said that she'd been working there for twenty years it felt like she was on a treadmill day in day out. I agreed with her saying I felt the same with my job. I then asked her for some leaflets explaining that I left my Toonstopia cartooning site to run out but wanting tostartposting again, (the scene changed to the memory of my seeing the site run out, but returned to the narative once I stopped thinking about it). She then returned with a big handful of the same leaflet. I then took the lift to the ground floor and walked just out of the building in a sheltered area when I noticed it was raining and others were leaving lighting up cigarettes before running off. I realised that I had left my favorite electronic cigarette upstais in my desk and was left with one that gave an inferior amount of vapour. I considered leaving and buying a pack of cigarettes, but decided I would be better off going back and getting it. I turned around and got in a lift which had three buttons, "M", "0" and "1". I presses the "1" button and the lift travelled forward then up and I got out on the first floor. I then took the stairs to the second floor, stopping half way up to go to the loo. Then as I was coming to the second floor, the corridor to the second floor door narrowed. I started crawling towards the door, but as I progressed, the corridor got narrower and narrower. I decided I wouldn't be able to make it so backed out then went up the stairs to the third floor and found that to get to this floor I had to climb onto a file draw which had wheels on the bottom, smash my way through a wooden flowery patterned trellis and climb through the hole I had made. I managed to do this with difficulty, then as I was orienting myself, I wondered how many of the ladies will still be in the office. At this point I woke up.
I'd like to apologize for disappearing again. I've popped in a few times over the past week, but I haven't been posting or keeping up with any of the programs I'm involved with. Basically, my recall has gotten wonky. All of my dreams recently end the same way, but I haven't been able to take advantage of this for purposes of lucidity. As far as I can tell, I'm waking up immediately when I hear the noise. On top of that, it's taking me longer to get to sleep, and I'm not able to stay asleep as long. It's probably due to stress, thinking about other things, the usual assortment of life-related factors. I'm not really sure. I just wanted to explain that in case someone from IOSDP or Dreamwalkers wonders where I went. On the subject of DVASA, my mind's just not there right now. The gradual disconnection of my dream life from waking has become a much greater focus than preparing for the upcoming mission to project to the moon. Maybe I'll get lucky and succeed in projecting this month, who knows? Good luck, everyone, and happy dreaming.
This Dream I canonly remember a few items. I was in anopen aired swimming pool and was swimming in the nude. As I swam towards a friend (no one in particular, just knew this person was my friend), I realised that I was the only one naked. This didn't embarass me, I just didn't want to be going counter to everyone else. left as inconspicuousely as I couldto the changing roomand came back fully clothed with shorts and a shirt similar to how my friend was dressed.
Type: DILD Lucidity: 4/10 Vividness: 5/10 First lucid dream Wednesday, October 5th, 2011 Key: Regular: Description Bold: Lucid Italic: Notes At the beginning of the dream, I was with my two brothers up inside my parent's room. It looked just like how it would in real life, although I did not inspect everything as much as I should have. The lighting was normal and it all seemed very real. We were all just standing there, and then I cant remember but I realized I was dreaming and became lucid. Me and my brothers all knew it was a lucid dream, which was kind of weird. Then we decided to believe that something would be under my parent's bed, and we started taking off the mattresses and sure enough, it was there. I really do not remember what it was that was there, but we did find it. Then I tried to summon a magic wand(Really don't know why, just the first thing that came to mind when I thought of summoning something) I just yelled "magic wand!" and visualized it in my hand, but nothing happened. Some black lady walked through the door, and I decided to leave to go downstairs. I jumped off the staircase and landed on the floor with no pain. There were some people that I never seen before laying on my couch, and they were saying stuff about me, I got mad and yelled at them. (Can't remember what I yelled) This is when I did my first reality check in a dream, I plugged my nose, and sure enough, I could breathe! I decided to go outside to see if I could find any DC's to interact with. I opened up my front door, and it was not my driveway, it was a grass plane with a school. The school had the words "middle school" floating above it. I continued to walk around looking for some DC's and I walked for what seemed like 20 seconds to the left, and then there was another school, that had the words "high school" floating above it. I instantly recognized the high school, because I have been there before in some of my non-lucid dreams. I woke up after that, and I tried to go back into a dream but there were people talking loudly in my house at the time, so I decided to get up. I think the reason the dream ended so quick, is that I did not practice any stabilization methods, I just did my own thing. I didn't even perform a reality check until half-way through the lucid dream.
