First time I've dreamt in a while. I could only resurrect pieces of my dream. Me and my friends are trapped by someone in a place where we can't leave and live structured lives. Kind of like living in an orphanage. We weren't the only kids there also. I decide to escape or die trying. The evil person has a lot of defenses to keep us there, including 4 (5?)dragons. I find out how to escape in a book. Later on I discover a fairy on a bookshelf that tells me I'm destined to escape and live. At this point, my friend Michael and I are inseparable. He knows I'm his ticket out of there and he wants to stay close so he's sure he's with me when I leave. He asks me once how it's going to go down. At some point there was a videogame like scene that showed her four (five?) dragons. Apparently they could be controlled somehow by feeding them different things. One liked herbs, another berries. I don't remember if there was more to the dream. Fuark that was hard to remember. 1st legit DJ entry ftw!
Dream date: Thursday night, Sep 1st 2011- Non Lucid I was in Sardinia and in a very large property with many other people for a holiday. I remember being glad that we only had a couple of days left before we went home as the place was quite dangerous, there were wolves about. At night my sister and I had a room on the ground floor, where the the moonlight would cast strange looking shadows from the objects we had in our rooms, and the tatty curtains would billow in the breeze that forced its way through the cracks of the windows. The windows in themselves were pretty flimsy things and I would imagine wolves breaking into them very easily, it took me ages to fall asleep. In the morning our parents took us to the beach, where I spent the day walking on all fours and admiring the prints my hands make in the sand, I guess I was tired the the little sleep I had gotten. When we arrived back at the holiday home we found there had been a wolf attack during the day, in which a few people had been dragged into the forest. The locals were at their wits end, so we decided a plan was in order. We all gathered in the lobby, which had many levels, lifts and a large pool running through it. We all hid ourselves and I instructed those who were allergic to wolves should hide somewhere else. Finally a young woman entered the building, she had dark eyes and black wavy hair with an evil glint in her eye. I comfronted her and asked that she and the other wolves leave us alone. To this she laughed and carried on past me, I ran after her and punched her in the head. She did not appreciate this and we broke into a fight of kicks and punches. I couldn't seem to stop her. She stood up and in an explosion of grey she had transformed into a werewolf and was eyeing up the people that would be her next kill. It was at this point two women near by, who had been drinking coffee at a table and chatting, suddenly got up, looking slightly irritated. They ran to either side of the were wolf and each clung to its large neck and sank their teeth into it. It was at this point that the wolf was no more, and dissapeared into a cloud of dust. I made my way back to my family, my dad asked what had happened, I said everything's fine now, two vampires sorted her out.
Bits of this morning's dream (last vestiges of a Clonazepam sleep): I'm making popcorn in my wok. Clearly I haven't thought this through, because I don't have a cover big enough for it. The popcorn and the oil start flying all over the kitchen, and I'm afraid my mom's about to come in and start yelling at me again for making a mess, or slapping me as she used to do whenever she was "tired". (I've actually been living on my own for 21 years and I could certainly take down my 70-year-old mother in a physical fight. I only recently started making my own popcorn and I frequently burn it.) As I'm trying to cover it up, we shift to an establishing shot of the building I'm in - a gas station/diner - and then to a computer screen where I'm getting an email from a guy who in real life has just asked me out for the 17th time. I'm not interested in him, and I've told him repeatedly that I'm busy, and this last time he asked me out I finally told him I had a boyfriend. (I don't, but often a persistent man will finally leave you alone if he thinks he'll have to deal with another male instead of just trying to wear YOU down.) He had responded nastily - "Okay what a weird response, I wasn't asking you out, I was just asking you for coffee!!!!!" (Creepy.) In this dream, the same email exchange occurs, but in addition to this nastygram from him, he includes a series of symbol characters (as in smileys or winkies and stuff like that) that, when looked at sideways, look like Mr. Knox from Fox In Sox with an erection. Ew. But I do wish I could remember the sequence of characters....

Yosma's Dreams Alright well a lot happened in my dreams last night so they are really jumbled and this order might be incorrect. Dream 1- I was at my school walking around in the hall way and then I went to lunch. I was sitting with people I don't normally sit with and I don't really remember what happened. I suddenly became lucid after lunch. As I walking away from the lunch room I saw some girl sitting in a chair and I dove over her just for fun. I then started doing wall jumps and back flips of walls also for fun. I exited the school and as I was walking out the door a women told me that "Chichen-Itza was to the left". I was about to go look, but then I saw my friend Justin and wanted to see if he was a D/C or we were sharing a dream so I told him we were dreaming. He didn't believe me so I flew and touched the top of the nearest tree and when I came down I couldn't find him again. Then I saw some people passing a Frisbee I think. I went to the parking lot and was trying to see if I could fly really high and then I saw my cousin. He threw a rock at me -_-. Then my uncle came and told me I was in trouble and to go sit in timeout. First off I'm 17 and secondly he threw the rock at me, but I think I went into timeout anyway because I became non-lucid. Dream 2- I was in a hotel with mostly people I don't know besides one girl who was my best friends cousin and some guy I talked to like once in school. We went out to some amusement park and I don't quite remember what we did there. Finally we went on an adventure and our objective was to find these magical pets. We found these flaming monkeys. We then went to my school and there was a hurricane outside and the place was flooded up to our waists so we walked on floating boards and then we went into a cave in the school and after navigating it for a while we found a cave with tons of flaming monkeys. We decided to leave them alone and went back through the cave. We were in the flooded cafeteria and I was crossing the floating boards and I fell in and my cell phone was in my pocket so I got really pissed and I woke up. Dream 3- I'm in my house and a hurricane is happening (these dreams are like mixing into one another). My roof is leaking in every room, but it's the worst in my parents room. I suddenly just appear at soccer practice and we are scrimmaging. Finally my coach calls us over to him and he says we are going somewhere. Everyone gets in there car and suddenly we are on a basketball court. There are professional players there and some of us are playing to. I'm already bad a basketball as it is, but my reactions are so slow. I can't move very well and I also can't stop my momentum when I run. Finally my coach calls me out, but as I'm running out I realize how odd this is and I become lucid. I immediately turn around and go out as if my coach never called me out and he doesn't say anything. Some professional player on the other team shoots, but I pull the ball back with telekinesis. The dream starts to fade so I drop to the ground and start rubbing the floor, but I can't hold on and I wake up. Well not really I just have a false awakening. I'm inside in a car and that guy I met once that I mentioned before was driving and my friends cousin was there to. We drive back to my house and we go up stairs. The roof is done leaking, but there are wet spots everywhere. The guy shows me a graph on the internet that says masturbation chart. It says 24%=Dean(which is me) and 10%=my mom. I was confused, so I went into my room where I fought them both league of legends style. I had poppy's moves and I slammed them into the wall and used my ultimate and took out the guy and proceeded to kill her. I woke up
Non-Dream Dream Lucid Well here's my first official Dream Journal entry, so enjoy! I was in a house with one of my friends. We were being terrorized by some ghosts, and there was no way of escaping them, we quickly ran into a room that was only lit by one flickering tan-colored candle, cylindrical in shape, but it was very fat. Apparently the ghosts wouldn't set foot inside the room as long as the candle was lit, so me and my friend took two of the spare candles and climbed out the window and down to the street. We went to the outskirts of the city to a lake, and we went to a boat dock with a man, the oracle of the city, sitting on it. He told us the candles were used by some ancient people to cross the desert with camels, and they held power against ghosts if you used them right, he also talked about five amulets that would give you the full power against our ghostly foes. I flicked on my HUD's (Heads Up Display's) mini radar and saw to my disdain multiple blips--ghosts-- coming right at us, from under the water, so we knew it was time to enter the city again and also look for the five amulets scattered across the city. We went back in the city and found three falcons. Which we talked to them then I became one. And I flew around the city, the city held an enormous building in the center, and least 100 feet tall and 100 feet wide, it resembled that of a church, but it was just the city center. Buildings that were rectangular in shape and built of stone, but much smaller than the city center, sat parallel to the center. With just enough room for two cars to go by, but there were no cars, only people. So I flew down into a shop filled with candy and other groceries. On top of one of the freezers (like you see in grocery stores) was one of the amulets. It had a red jewel in the center, I quickly put it away and went to the second store and found the second amulet under a box of Snickers. As I flew away to go to the third place, I woke up.
Joshdamighty's Dream So I attempted a w.i.l.d but had a hard time getting back to sleep after waking up at 6:00am (went to bed at 12:00am). I was telling myself when I see the colors and I know I'm going through sleep paralysis, I will immediately wake up and reality check. I guess I waited too long... I ended up dreaming of getting up thinking it didn't work and I did a reality check with my hands and they looked normal! That's odd that they were normal. So now I'm thinking its real. I go outside and want to see if the weather is windy and cooler here in Texas cause we have been waiting forever for this. I see the wind and then see my brother standing about 100 yards away from the house and he's watching it too. Then, the sky changes to a bright white. I see snow way off in the distance. I was really confused now but then heard a loud roar. I could tell from my years of playing monster hunter that it was a BLANGONGA. Blangonga is the big one, blangos are the small ones. I freaked out and yelled at my brother to get inside and he just stood there (why is it my brother always gets in these situations in my dreams). It starts snowing heavy and I see Blangos and then see a big shadow in the distance. Now I don't normally lose my cool in dreams but this time I went crazy. I ran inside to grab a sword or battleaxe and woke up.

Notes Non-Lucid Lucid Dream 1: In Minecraft, it starts out by the camera panning over some mix between a chicken and a cow.(?) Well, it was hardly a mix. Most of it was a cow, but it had the legs of a chicken. It looked weird. Anyways, I start controlling it. It can run very fast and jump long distances. So, basically, I'm just jumping around the place. Dream skips, and I'm looking at a skeleton with a smiley face. It's in a desert under some small shade. It walks out of the shade and starts dying. So, he runs back under it. And that's it? I can't remember if I woke up or if it just skipped to this dream: Dream 2: I have no idea where this dream started off. I remember I was running into a lot of different rooms and such. I remember I stopped in one room just so I could skydive out the window. Dream skips, I'm on the porch of the same building. I had a towel, but no clothes on. I looked up and saw some lady. She started freaking out and screaming "She's naked, she's naked!" and panicking. (I'm a male, just so you know. So, that made no sense.) After that, someone drives up and I hide beside the house. And, that's all I remember.
I wake up after about 9 hours of sleep. (weekends ftw) I remember a mess of short and unstable dream fragments, but none of them seem interesting... For some reason I feel like if I try to fall back asleep I might have an awesome dream though, plus I'm not in the mood to get up yet whatsoever. It doesn't take long until I fall asleep. I'm at some kind of hotel, searching for my room, but I'm a bit lost. I wander around hoping to randomly find it. I cannot even seem to recall what it looks like. (This is a recurring dream scenario) The only way to a new corridor is to walk through a gym shower room which I find a bit odd. I enter it but accidentally hit a lever on one of the walls. All the showers turn on at once... oops? I turn the lever back down but it won't stop... shit. I start to become confused and slightly scared, why does this not work? Why can't I turn it off? I try other levers at random, but it just makes things worse. A few people are starting to notice, and are staring at me from the corridor. There's that scary sensation you get when a nightmare is about to start... But this gets me thinking. Lost in a hotel... searching for my room, this is a dream sign! I RC and sure enough, I'm dreaming. I casually walk out of the room, not really caring about it or the looks on the DC's faces anymore. They all look very confused at what they're seeing, except for one girl. She seems happy, even excited? Like she's about to engage me in conversation? But she doesn't, and I walk right past her... weird... ... I'm outside of the hotel. I sit down at the last free table to have dinner. I look at the menu and order something. Whilst I hand the menu back to the waiter, I see that it was hiding the fact that another person had joined me at the table. It's the girl I've seen earlier when I was exiting the showers. "Can I join you?" Her having seen the shower thing makes me uncomfortable, but there's something about her that intrigues me... "Sure... I'm Hyu, nice to meet you." Wait... Hyu? Did I just tell her I'm called Hyu? ... Oh well, let's just leave it at that. But then suddenly the realization comes that I was lucid at the end of the shower scene. I'm still at the same hotel, which means I must still be dreaming. I look at the girl carefully, trying to find... something out of the ordinary I guess? But the scene is darkening... shit. Stabilize! It's too late, the scene vanishes... ... I'm at my hotel room with 3 friends. We want to go out. I open the door to leave the room but I am greeted by a... grizzly bear? I casually close the door again, seeing as I must still be dreaming... A bear? ... Seriously? My friends are freaking out screaming things like: "It's a bear!!! We're all going to die!!!" How annoying... I unsummon them with a wave of my hand. Much better! The room is quite dark... not good. I start rubbing my hands, hoping to stabilize the dream, but it's not working. I rub them more vigorously, but then they nearly catch fire and I burn myself. What the heck? Well... this is obviously not working. I try to summon the small phoenix wings on my left arm to teleport myself to Teraluna... ... But all I get are a few sparkles shooting out of my arm, like the wing summoning procedure is sort of broken. I've had this happen before, I can't teleport if my dreams are unstable... I don't know what to do and I'm afraid I'm going to loose the dream. "Booh!" That startled me. I turn around. It's the same girl yet again. "Who are you?" Maybe it's Faye playing another of her pranks? I probe her aura... nope... there's no way this is Faye. But it's not the aura of a DC either, it's way too strong and vibrant for that. She holds out her hand to me. I feel adventurous and grab it. I look into her eyes and I am dragged into them... Suddenly I'm blinded by intense light. As my vision normalizes I see that I'm in... a rather special room? It's a very big apartment room, with glass walls. I must be in a skyscraper considering how high I am. It's night outside, I can overlook a rather big city. The room itself is very weird. It's like an insanely huge bath/pool room? There are pools, everywhere, connected by small waterfalls. Water is flowing pretty much from everywhere, showers integrated in the walls / ceiling, waterfalls somehow starting at the top of the room. "You like it?" "Yeah..." The girl is now wearing a white bikini with a red flower drawn on it. She's beautiful... She has brown curly hair and bright white eyes. She's about my age. I'm still holding her hand and she's dragging me towards one of the smaller waterfalls. It smells great in here, and that watery breeze is just amazing. She takes a quick dive under the waterfall and comes back out. She clearly enjoys the water, you can easily see the passion in her eyes. "You haven't answered my question..." "I won't... I thought you had a thing for mysterious women?" "I do... but that doesn't change the fact that my curiosity is endless. But how would you know that?" "Hmm... isn't it obvious? I read about it." Hold on... did she read my DJ? Is she real? I'm not going to ask her, that would just be awkward, clearly she knows exactly what's going on. "I'm assuming your name is top secret as well?" "Haha, it totally is!" She runs one of her hands up my arm. Suddenly I get goose bumps. The feeling is EXTREME. What is this? It feels so insanely good. I brush over her cheek with two of my fingers and I see arcs of electricity moving between my fingers and her cheek. It feels so good, and I can clearly see that she's enjoying it was well. I can hear music playing... something electronic, ambient and calm. (something a bit like this) She hugs me and starts running her fingers down my back. I get a complete sensory overload. I can feel her fingers with every single skin cell in my back. I can see every single fiber in the iris of her eyes. The colors are so strong and vivid that they would burn out my eyes in a split second in waking life. It's like looking straight into the sun, except you are not blinded. I can hear every single drop of water in the room, I could pinpoint where exactly each one is, even if I was blind. I can even hear both of our heartbeats, our breathing, even her hair brushing over her shoulders. I have no idea what's happening, but I don't care. I'm enjoying this way too much. I can clearly feel the arcs of lightning everywhere our bodies touch. I mimic what she's doing and run my fingers down her back. She shivers with pleasure. It really turns me on. This is so intense... I can't believe we're doing nothing but touch each other. She's moving in for a kiss. I wonder what it's going to feel like... We're really close now... But then of course... I wake up... -_- This was rather overwhelming...
HoC's Dream The dream is very fragmented and I remember very little. There's something about The Legend of Zelda. I'm in a garden, or what looks liek a garden. It was very nature filled. The next thing I remember is being at school with a couple of people, the school was all mirrored to what it usually was. I saw what looked like the girl that appears in some of my other dreams through a window. Me and some other people were carrying boxes and stuff like that. I joked about the person who was next to me. And the rest is just a big unknown.
So I woke up after 6 hours of sleep, went back to bed, then got into a ND, Normal dream/DILD: I was walking around near my place (in the street), was near a small supermarket, find old, old, old crush, talk to her while walking, tell her let's walk to the end of the street, right there i became aware i were dreaming, and i woke up after a few seconds Chained DEILDs: 1st one: Woke up from the DILD, kept my eyes closed, thought about lucid dreaming, and did some visualization, dream scene created, a street also near my place, decided to observe surroundings to stabilize, saw a speeding while taxi, span around my axis slowly while observing, dream was kinda fuzzy, rubbed hands, but ended up waking up So yeah, 3 LDs in one night, awesome ... I've been averaging about atleast 1 LD per week since my latest DJ entry, but I've been having some issues with the duration of them, And I've been successful in having a WILD finally after 6 months of trial. Anyways, hope you enjoyed my DJ!, -Optiphobia

I'm in my parents' old Ford LTD station wagon and I've just picked up the dogs. The strange thing is that they're two of the dogs we had when I was 12, black Labs. I drive up to our old house in Stormhaven (where we lived until I was 15) and open one of the back doors. I know there are three dogs back there. The third is from the present, my sister Bren's boyfriend's Jack Russell. The female Lab runs out and tears down the street about five houses over. The male Lab follows her. Of course, the terrier yelps and tags after them. I'm aware that I've just dug the two Labs out of their graves, and that after so many decades in the ground they must be rarin' to go. I grab the male by his collar - he's about 10 metres long - and the female follows him back with me as I command them both to come home. My cat, Miu Miu (who died in 2007), is there and is being cornered by the dogs. I don't tell her to come home because I know she will when she's good and ready. She looks hurt that I haven't included her in the command to come home, but I know you can't command a cat and expect immediate obedience the way you can a dog. On the way home, we pass our next-door-neighbour's yard - the place where I was babysat and suffered abuse at the age of three. Someone who lives there is putting their cat out as the Jack Russell and the male lab start to rush around this cat. I'm aware I'm being glared at. I finally manage to get all the dogs home and safely enclosed in the yard. I get in the house. Someone has brought in the stinky cheese we had in the car. There's a wrestler named, simply, E.O.S. - and the message I'd been trying to carve in the cheese was, "Thank you E.O.S. for keeping (some girl's name) company" and this is as far as I'd got. The rest of the message was to be "funny" - "big nose, fat, smells like a fish" - with a caricature of the girl and labels pointing to her various and many flaws. I go into the house and find that the cheese is there and that my mom is joking about E.O.S. being on the phone. I then realize the male and female lab were the wrong dogs - I think I must be having a Clonazepam-induced half-dream. So I mention the two older dogs' names - and my mom, sure enough, looks perplexed and concerned about me - and then I correct myself and say they're actually the family's current Great Dane and Landseer, both females. Then I'm sitting at a piano in a room full of family members talking loudly about the dogs. At one point someone, possibly my dad, makes a flip remark about how much work it must have been rounding them up. I'm upset, and I mutter - much as Toby might have muttered on The West Wing - "I had to dig them out of their graves." Everyone's head flies up and they look in my direction. I leave the gathering and go to my room. I leave the door open, knowing my mom will pass the doorway on the way to her room. I just lie on my back and stare at the ceiling. It should be noted, for future reference as well as for this dream, that I'm on Clonazepam for sleep. Clonazepam can have a strange hangover effect, at least with me, where I can be up and walking around and mechanically functioning normally and still be in a half-dream state. If I haven't slept all the drug out of my system, this is usually what happens. Best example happened about a week ago when I was sitting on the toilet, a thought occurred to me that I was going to have breakfast, and I reached up beside me thinking my kitchen shelf was there and I was going to get some ingredients down to make my breakfast. When I could find no kitchen shelf there, I awoke more fully. The other night I dreamt I scratched the skin of someone with psoriasis; the impression remained so strong after I awoke that I actually went to the sink and washed under my fingernails with soap. I suspect Clonazepam might have some hallucinogenic or narcotic properties, but I'm not sure. But it's either put up with half a minute of that after I awaken, or suffer circadian rhythm disorder and its full impact on my life. So the choice is there. Recurring dream fragment: Digging up long-dead family dogs and having them come out of stasis.

Good morning, everybody. Dream #1 I was in some place like a workshop. There were one or two groups of people in the workshop. I may have belonged to one of the groups. But one of the groups had finished whatever they'd had to do. This group left the room. They walked through a long, ramped hallway, like in a hospital. They were now in a dark room at the end of the hallway. The room was like a bar, although it didn't seem to have anything in it. The people were all singing karaoke. I sat down in the workshop-room at some big working table. I was at the back end of the table. I really wanted to do some karaoke. I was getting restless. I had a pile of money in front of me. I realized that some people had left their money here. So I should give it back. President Obama was sitting on the right side of the table, near the front end. I gave the pile of money to Obama. I realized that the money was money that Congress had left on the table. They'd probably need it back. And President Obama would probably be able to give it to them. I walked away from President Obama. But, for some reason, I still had two $10 bills in my hand. So I turned back to Obama and dropped the $10 bills on the table. They lined up nicely, the bottom edge of one matching wih the top edge of the other. They also looked really nice and new. I knew that the $20 was some kind of "extra tax" that came with the money for Congress. The main pile of money was the pile that Congress got as a matter of course. The "extra tax" was tax that Congress received on this money. But President Obama told me to keep the extra $20. He said something like Congress hadn't really earned the stack of money in the first place, and they really wouldn't miss the tax money if it was missing. President Obama then asked me, "Well, why are you sticking around here? You can go, if you'd like. Don't you wanna go do karaoke with everybody else?" I said no. I knew the Fed was going to talk about something pretty soon. I felt like it would probably be a smart idea if I hung around here until the Fed got through talking about whatever they were going to talk about. I had partly said this to butter-up Obama and make him think I was smart. But I was also genuinely interested in what the Fed had to say. Dream #2 I was in a restaurant/bar. The restaurant had a weird shape, kind of an upside-down "L" shape, with the tall part of the "L" being really long and kind of narrow. The lighting for the whole place was a kind of neon-blue. But there were windows to the space outside of the bar, which looked like the inside of a mall and was lit normally. I had gotten a table to sit at. But I had been asked to stand up. I'd had to walk all the way to the end of the area I was in, i.e. to the "base" of the "L" shape. Now I was back at my seat. There was some other guy with me, an Asian man in maybe his late twenties, dressed in a business suit. We seemed to be co-workers or friends. We were about to sit down when another man asked if he could sit with us. He was also Asian and young. He was dressed in an all-black business suit. We didn't know the man, but we let him sit with us. The two men sat beside each other. They started talking with each other, as if they were familiar with each other. I understood that they had never met each other before, but that they "knew the game" well enough to talk with each other as if they were familiar with each other. I sat on the opposite side of the table, kind of awkwardly positioned in my seat against an empty seat, and messing around with stuff at the table, possibly a glass of water and some condiments or little appetizers or something. The men tried to include me in the conversation. They asked me something. I responded by giving some speech about the Fed, which I don't remember, other than the fact that it was about them not needing something and having some kind of disagreement with Congress. The Fed might have said that Congress didn't need something. Dream #3 I was in a big, nice living room in some wonderful apartment on a high-up floor in a big building. An old, white man with white hair sat on a couch. I may have sat down and stood up alternately. I had been interested in the old man's daughter. I wanted to marry the daughter. But the old man was sure that I only wanted to marry the daughter because I wanted to get at the old man's money. This wasn't true. There were elements of the dream before this point that proved, I reflected, that I really liked the girl. But I can't remember those parts of the dream.
