Class and Securing the Hill

I was in a class, but don't know what I was learning. We all chose net-books for the day. They were all unique.
One computer had a problem.

Dream skip?

I went to a grassy hill and was going to fight some machines. Everyone in my unit or on my team had a vehicle
that served as protection. I chose a place on the hill that offered protection from ahead and from behind.

These dreams repeated. When I went to class again, I knew one of the computers had a problem. I got the same
computer I had had before because I knew that one worked.

I saw some meat that had been flattened and salted. It was raw. I ate some and realized some how, not by the taste,
that the meat had been poisoned. I started to spit out the meat. Every time I spit, I had a lot more spit to spit out. I
spit enough to fill a baggie half way. I left the class.

I was on the hill again. Someone had a boa constrictor--possibly a red tail boa. It was about 8 feet long. They were letting it get very close to me. It was trying to bite me. Eventually I was trying to hold it anyway. I tried to get it behind the head, but being tired in waking life (I guess), I couldn't focus on it much. I ended up holding it by the tail and letting it crawl on the ground.

Then I was positioned on the hill again. My spot was now vulnerable from the rear. I didn't like that at all. I had a premonition that we would be attacked from the rear. I ended up in some kind of a room that was walled by tough, nylon strapping material. I had a machine gun. It was like a cross between an AK-47 and an AR-15. I liked having it. I shot about 15 bullets and then thought I should stop in case I hit someone. I wanted to get out of the room, so I started pulling the strapping and it was coming loose. Eventually I guess I did get loose with someone else who was in the room with me.

Then I was in a military aircraft. I was never in the military. We were preparing for something. I was trying to get my machine gun it a case because I didn't want to leave it, and I didn't want to walk around wherever I was going with an open machine gun.

One of the other guys with me, a superior I think, threw a jacket out of the plane. I was upset because I think it was my jacket. It was as though I wasn't supposed to keep the military property (including the gun). I quickly put on another jacket so as to claim it. That meant the jacket thrown out was someone elses.

OGF

I met a girl who looked like someone I used to date. I was my current age--she was the age I met her. I approached her nervous of how she would respond to what I wanted to tell her. I told her that I know I am much older, but I just wanted to tell her that she looked like an ogf. She looked exactly like her. I was in love.

Later, she responded more to my liking, and I became semi lucid, or at least controlled my dream. I started holding her. I was taking my time to go up her shirt because I was enjoying being with her, but I realized I may wake up soon, so I started going further up her shirt. I got so far as to feel where her breast started. I didn't go further because I wanted to save some of the enjoyment. I never got to feel her breast, but I was enjoying looking at her face too much.

Went to bed 1230
Goals teleport
Woke up at 4:30 and could not sleep again until 6-630
7:OO I rem considering what i would be like for words to suddenly appear in my first person view about my progress, like in a game. When i consider this it makes me think of what a great way it would be to go lucid.

*I rem being at an amusemnt park and we with jessica, possibly others, and we are riding a ride like the scream. I rem there was no seatbelts or anything to strap you in though. At one point jessica gets off the ride but she stilll waits in the general area, not having to get out of the way. I rem thinking about how i had been riding the ride over and over again without stopping. I considered whether i would get sick as well as whether or not i was annoying jessica. I rem one time when it starts again, i half leaned outside of it and for a moment felt like i was gonna fall all of the way down. It was quite scary and prevented me from doing that again.

*I vaguely rem being at school and getting ready to go to a class i hadnt been to in a long time.

*Vaguely rem some kind of battle or conflict, outdoors and sunny, stone walkways and buildings.

*I vaguely rem being at a friends house, im thinkink with alexis cause i kind of rem seeing his dad. They are not in the room and i am looking at their dog. It looks like a golden retriever but for some reason in the dream i think of it as a donkee. I rem noticing it had like a saddle strapped to its back but it was very small and fluffy, i think pink in color. It looked like it was for a smaller animal to sit on the dog/
donkeys back.

8:49 I rem being at school in a classroom. I cant rem what class it was specifically but i rem my creative writ teacher teaching it. At first he is talking to the entire class, but more on the other side of the room, about some politics; i rem he mentions hawaii. I rem talking to some dude who works at gamestop about what classes he signed up for next semester. He tells me all of his classes, names four of them i think spanish was one, and then reveals he only plans to take the finals for them. He talks about one class he is signing up for a second time, he didnt finish the first time and complains he never got a chance to meet his classmates.

At one point i think he changes into a girl but not sure. I almost forgot, he had a lady with him who was like doing his finances or something. I rem at one point he is standing and she next to him, they both say something at the same time like they planned it and they make a hand gesture like throwing away money. I rem thinking it was pretty cheesy in the dream but he seemed proud of himself.

MY cre writ teacher comes over to my side of the room and now im sitting in the front row of class with a few people on each side but its like he is talking to a select group from the class. He starts talking about fox news, it was really funny. He starts by saying something like its that time again, when the one party is ready to cause trouble or something like that. He describes them as the ones who... and then he acts out what he is saying. I cant rem exactly what he said but i know in the dream he was making fun of glenn beck and others on fox news. I rem him mocking one of the women, he turned around and started shaking his ass, it was funny but wierd becasuse he kind of shifted into a woman when he did this. I rem all of a sudden he had a womens lower body and was wearing a green skirt. Cant rem much else.

10:44 Had a dream, cant rem how it gets to this point but, i rem walking with a long white stick with black writing on it. In the dream i know it has something to do with the police. Im in like a mall or something and there is a huge crowd of people. I walk into the group with my stick and the dream shifts into like a highschool graduation. The stick is now like my diploma and the line turns into just me and a few others. We are walking through a room with a bunch of people in suits and dresses.

The diploma is now like a military baton and everyone is holding theres like the military holds the rifle at their side. I rem walking in this way, or marching and being really sillly with it. I was over acting my march until i realized so many people in the room were watching. It seems like people on the left of the line were sitting and standing on the right. As i leave this room i see my dad and i think some of his family standing there in a suit and he is holding up a camera like it is on record.

We move into the next room and all head to our seats. Before i sit down i pass rachelle. When i do she says that she ran for first place or something like that, i make a really strange face, but im meaning to congratulate her, then i walk off. The room we are in has all of the graduating class and its poorly lit. the whole dream feels grey. They were calling us up just a few at a time, as my group sits down this black dude from my group says something llike, man i only got six. He said something else and in the dream i knew he was complaining about how many people cheered for him. He pulled out a plastic bag with a number written on it with a black sharpie. I do the same and say something similar, but i got even less cheers. A couple people around me see this and start laughing, i sit down at first a little self conscious but then stop caring. Cant rem much else. (I didnt go to my real hs graduation, so this is an interesting dream...)

Nondream - Lucid - Nonlucid

WILD!
I actually wasnt planning on doing a WILD, It wasnt even a WBTB, it just randomly happened while I was just trying to get to sleep.
So I went straight to bed at around 11 like I usually do, not even thinking about lucid dreaming.
and somehow, as soon as I hit SP, my mind just 'woke up' and I knew what was happening.
Sweet, I just took all the hard work out of WILDing

It was SP but I wasnt just hearing random stuff this time,
I was listening to my dad lecture me, cool stuff.
I reminded myself to stay as calm as possible, and ofcourse..
My heartbeat starts going Nuts.

My heart starts beating extremely fast, i mean like machine gun fast. Its never even beat this fast in real life.
Crap. I was gonna wake up for sure.
Wellllllll, I DIDNT wake up, I guess it was just some prank,
Good game subconscious, good game.

I finally felt the dream coming, and that familiar buzzing feeling of finally entering it.

Im standing in my room, funny how most of my lucids always start in here.
I remember to stabilize, and stabilize I did.
I made sure to use all my senses, I looked around at my room, I rubbed my hands together,
I sniffed the air a few times, though I did forget about sound, but there wasnt anything to really listen to anyways.
I let myself become more aware of my surroundings.
It worked, amazingly. I actually felt the dreams stability, and even my vision was decent.
Then it hit me, how should I say this, I really really really wanted to try um, Lucid.. 'Love making'
Im not a perv I swear, I was just curious yknow :)

I stepped through my window, it felt natural by now,
And found myself flying through the side of a hotel, there were a bunch of balconys,
but I ofcourse was dodging them all like a boss.
I was flying pretty fast too, or at least faster then I usually do, but I wasnt really thinking much of it.
It was a nice sunny day, there were some interesting figures standing on each of the balconys I passed,
unfortunately I cant remember any details.

I made my way to an opening, It was a big area overlooking the ocean,
It was full of tables and chairs, like some restaurant had just set up near it.
There were plenty of people, this is perfect I thought, and landed from my flight.

My eyes were busy sweeping back and forth around the crowds, a smirk clearly stamped on my face,
I saw a girl my age, I knew her, I used to go to school with her, this was it.
The thing was though, she was surrounded by a group of guys, who I knew to be kids from their school, I walked up anyways.
I went straight to her, she looked up at me and smiled, I knew what had to be done.
I took her by the hand and carried her, and looked for a more private place, I didnt wanna do it out in the open..

Though looking back I guess I shouldve just done that, It was a dream after all.
I started walking away from the scene, carrying my prize in my arms,
and ofcourse, the guys she was with werent too happy I was walking away with their girl, and immediately started chasing after me.
Great. Well, I started running, why I didnt just blast them with some cool energy attack, or even just fly away, I will never know.

Up ahead I saw a bathroom, cool I'll hide in there..
I sprinted to the mens section, then realizing they could still follow me in here, I corrected myself and ran into the girls section,
And sure enough they stopped right outside the door, which was wide open by the way,
and started moaning and whining about how they couldnt follow me in, yay dream logic

The bathroom though was just Tiny.. And I was just some two inches from the open door,
where the douches were being held back by some invisible force field, but I knew my shield wouldnt last forever.
In front of me was a stall, this was the only way to get deeper into the bathroom, and finally get away from the guys chasing us,
And to finally 'get to know' this girl I'd been carrying the whole time.
I reached for the door handle, It was my time to shine

...

Locked.
SHIT. Why??!?!?!?!?!?! HOW could somebody be taking a piss at a time like This?!
The guys behind us had woken up and viciously grabbed and PULLED me out of the bathroom,
I fell backwards.. Falling, and landing on my bed, still mourning the loss of my prize..



Well, at least I had a lucid dream

Sunday, July 3rd

Couldn’t sleep last night until 5 a.m. When I finally did zonk out I was grateful enough just for the void that I remembered absolutely nothing upon waking.

Deleted

I was laying in bed trying to WILD and remembered that it has been awhile now and that I don't feel the change btween awake and dreaming. I did a reality test and realized i went into a lucid dream. I got out of bed and I couldn't see. I immagined what was in front of me and acted as if I was focussing intently on it, it then slowly came to be in front of my eyes. I walked over to my closet and decided to go to a frosty land. I opend the door after verbally stating I wanted to go to the cold north, I only saw my closet rearanged from what it normally is aranged. I closed it and tried again only to fail. The dream faded and I found myself in bed again, where all my WILDs start. I thought that this might not be a real awakening and I was right. I got up and tried again hopeing no zombie was in the closet. There was no zombie. The dream faded and I was in bed again. I got up and remembered what Yoshi told me about flying where you want to go. I got up and looked at everything focusing on very small details and the feelings I had to stable the dream. I then walked to my living room door and tried to run through it. I only stoped short of going through it many times. I then opend it and worried that my real body might be sleep walking and get hit by a car. I got on the edge of the porch and jumped off. While I was flying I looked at a map and went north. Suddenly it was snowy and I was joined by some gryphon riders from WoW. We said no pleasantrys. I started to fly higher into the sky near the clouds. I didn't want to lose control of flight do to no referance point. I figured out a new way to steer my self up and down while flying. I flew up to a cave with an Alliance banister from WoW besides it, there where 2 in fact anlong side a steam tonk. The dream ended.

Woot I learned a new way to get rid of dream blindness and to fly better.

After experiencing my mother going through a bipolar mode after I was being sarcastic with saying that chores were “Fun” (weird lol) from mad to trying to suck up to me for being angry at me, I see my father resting on his bed (he's not here at the moment, he's at some temporary vacation somewhere...I could've used that as a reality check! grrr!!!) Then another part of the dream came up where I was sitting down As I'm sitting down, my father is asking me if I got an e-mail from a college I'm going to this August (Texas A&M University at College Station). It's been something we've been looking on for a while on, personal things that will benefit me ;p.

Anyway, as he is questioning me, I see he points out something in a paper on a table to me, then he gets more aggressive for some reason and starts choking me. (end of dream) I get VERY SCARED, because I'm FEELING him CHOKING ME. I think I even tried to fake choking combined with that sound we make (like trying to gargle with no liquid inside our throat). When I made that sound, I woke up.

I, with my friend, was riding the subway back to Finch station, from somewhere around Union (or past). In this subway, each car was 10-15 feet across, and had two sets of doors, one set to let people in/out, and one set inside the car. The doors opened, and my friend said we should go inside the inner doors, in case of a flood. The doors opened again, and two cute girls walked in, as I slipped into the inner compartment with my friend. A moment later, one of the girls (a blonde) came in, looked at us a little weird, and leaned against the opposite wall; I gave her a smile and nod, and returned to talking to my friend, who promptly told me that after prom, he'd missed the subway (or it could've been plane) home, and so he'd been gone for two days instead of one. I followed up with "Yeah, I've had that. Whenever I miss the buses, I just stay at your place." The girl looked at us somewhat mockingly again, and I continued (in a voice implying really-are-you-an-idiot) "Oh, not like that."

At this point, we exited the subway and boarded the streetcar. I can only surmise that my subconscious has no idea what a streetcar is, because this was a chain of little erasers on rails. We rode for a while, and I made smalltalk with the blonde, and could tell she was somewhat interested. At this point, I did something stupid and my "streetcar" came off the rails. I had to jog as quickly as the streetcar and try and get it back on the rails, to void holding up the people in cars behind me. No use, I couldn't get it back on, and eventually, the streetcar sped to be much quicker than myself.

Fragments

I remember being in my bedroom with my sister, my brother, and my brother's friend, playing some kind of block game. I noticed that my laundry basket (which, in reality, I'd placed in front of my door, so I'd remember to do laundry in the morning) was askew, as though I'd opened the door and walked right by it.

I woke up at about 6am this morning..2 hours earlier than I planned to, so I figured it was too early to have passed an REM cycle. I got up, browsed some sites on the computer for a while, then went back to try a WILD at about 7am.

Green = non-lucid
Red = moment before lucidity
Sky Blue = lucid

First Attempt:

I knew I had nearly done it when I felt a huge tingle all over my body, which at some point just broke. It kind of feels like your body "disconnecting" if you were to describe it. Behind my lids, I was seeing some flashes of pictures in the distance, and I was attempting to focus on them. However, I feel like I got too excited at this new sensation, and the pictures soon went away and simply turned into blackness. I opened my eyes to find myself lying in bed.

Second Attempt:

Not willing to give up, I decided to try one more time. It was a strange mix of non-lucidity and brief lucidity, but I am getting there. I once again felt the telltale sign of that "disconnecting" feeling, and this time let it overtake me without trying to focus too hard. Unfortunately, I believe this thought of completely letting go caused me to lose consciousness and I fell into a non-lucid dream...

I was in some type of either spaceship with narrow corridors. I knew I was in danger, I believe I was also with my girlfriend. There were howling noises in the background like wolves, and we were hiding in this dark room, but still light enough to faintly see each other...we were on a chair and I remember hugging her..but for some reason we didn't care about the danger and well it was starting to become "feely."

At this point that dream fades out, and I open my eyes to find my room...or so I thought.

I "woke up" and lay in bed for a few seconds just looking out my window. But something didn't feel right. Outside the window was another building..with a gated fence in front of it. It was also at ground level, when I live on the top floor of an apartment building. At this moment I realized it was a dream.

It felt incredibly stable at first. I walked to the window and looked outside. The sky was dark, everything was shaded in gray, and I was at ground level, inside a black fenced enclosure that looks like one of those city parks with all cement. I felt scared like there was a sense this would be a nightmare, but realizing that I was dreaming, I braved it and stepped outside my window. I believe this is the moment I got ahead of myself: I walked for a bit, then immediately wanted to test the ability to create things. I looked at a spot on cement lot and imagined Holo(anime) standing there. It worked and it didn't. As I did this, it felt like I was focusing on my body lying in bed to work the imagination, rather than my dream body. I became aware of myself lying in bed and try as I might to get the dream to come back, it was too late.

I am definitely going to try more tomorrow however. Now that I know more or less what sleep paralysis feels like to me, I know what to expect and will be able to take things slower.

Nothing but birthing and dying fractals.

non-dream - non-lucid - lucid

03-07-11 I slid out of bed during WILD attempt and knew I was dreaming as I never lost consciousness. When I feel a tingle down my right arm I recognise it as paralysis. I start experimenting. I start off by being able to move a phantom arm outside my normal arm and then things pick up speed as I rotate within my body. After this I slide out of the bed somewhat falling somewhat levitating.

My room had a wall where the windows normally are and there were two tellies. Another difference is that there is a guitar hanging above the computer table accompanied by some strange decorations. I start falling through the floor and my breathing is impaired, which frightens me a bit. Although I am fully separated from my physical body location wise I can still feel my breathing and I draw in a deep breath. I decide to brave it and although the image is fading I shout out “I want to remain lucid” (I actually scream this in English though it is a second language). At first my voice is blurry and I am having trouble getting the words out. This isn't new to me however so I scream it again and again. Might do it 4 times in total. As the dream stabilise a bit I notice it is sunny outside so I go towards the window intending to find Mitzu (to clarify if that yellow eyed man eater is actually my dream guide). I start calling her name and start flying through the window. For a brief second I expect problems with the window, but to my surprise I manage to go through it with no issues, however it is as if I am looking from inside the glass for a substantial amount of time, which distorts my vision a bit blurring things. My flight is working fine and as I look down I notice a lot of clutter on the terrace below, some of it is plants the rest I don't figure out in time as the dream ends.

Notes: This was an unintentional WILD. I had tried for an hour before with no success after 2-3 hours of pre-sleep. Think I was too caught up in awareness when I compare the first try with this. Second time I kept sorta singing the Hakuna Matata (LK-WILD FTW!! ^^) mantra as I really wanted to rest, seeing I am ill and all. There were some few spontaneous breath focusing when I saw HHs, but very limited awareness compared to the almost meditative states I experienced before. This mini-awareness was enough for me to recognise though when SP kicked in and I just went for it.

Travelling. Alone? The purple color. Strange and unknown place. A white church, with a bell tower and a cross on top, covered by trees.

Travelling in what I thought was Manila. Almost got lucid. I was staring hard to read a book, but everything is blurry, and the surrounding is dark/night.

I remember seeing And. V.

Saturday, July 2nd

Much of my memory of these dreams has faded. I waited too long to write them down; they felt very personally revealing and I was admittedly a bit nervous about it. Weird, weird sexual tensions (which makes sense, as I am a notoriously awkward person and have been single for nearly 2 years, the longest amount of time since middle school, which is beginning to fuck with me a little bit.)

I. Russell’s Land

At some point I (we?) had given directions to 2 girls on how to get downtown. It may have been at this point where my dream memory begins, as we see them outside of an unknown house. There is a picnic table in back. As we are walking by it, my hand brushes against one of the girls’. I do this half accidentally, and to my surprise she actually grasps and holds onto it for a second. I take no further action despite this flagrant nonverbal signal.

When I see them again I am on Wrightsville Ave with A.J.R, playing music on the street. They again ask us how to get there, and I have to struggle to answer them because as I am in a dream it is difficult to think logically. They leave and A.L goes with them. We make plans to meet them down there later but do not follow through as A.J.R and I end up playing all night. Apparently we are playing on “Russell’s land.” I remember very little about Russell other than that he seemed quite rednecky.

As A.J.R and I are playing we see O.P. I do not remember any exchanges that occur here. There is also a strange text conversation between C.H and I, something about a naked picture, which I wouldn’t have the balls to ask for in physical reality. In fact, I think I put my phone back in my pocket before flipping to the text ,which would have had the picture in it.

Next thing I remember is their return, we are inside a house and I see A.L has come back and has a new tattoo. He shows it to me, I believe it is on his left pectoral somewhere. As he shows me this one he reveals others that he’s apparently already gotten. They are small and of strange alien symbols. I tell him this new one is “no more than what you’ve got” which is a clumsy way of trying to say that it’s a good new addition but not bigger or more noticeable than any of the others.

The dream jumps and we may be in the backyard of the same house, but it’s still unfamiliar. There is a conversation between two people about the emotionally involved conversations that occur during heavy inoculation. One of them says “Irish people do that, man…” I then see H.S, who has apparently “made good of a one year promise.” I can’t remember what that means anymore, but I do know he is standing there with a lamp made out of some weird plastic contraption that looks like a muffler that’s currently sitting out in my yard for no good reason. I begin to wake up just as I stare at that lamp and start to wonder “hey, is this a dream…?”

II. Don’t Even Think About It.

I am walking into a movie theater, there were people with me but in the beginning of the dream I do not see them. I have the intuition that we are going to see the new movie Zookeeper, and I am immediately apprehensive about this cause from what I’ve seen that movie looks incredibly stupid. When I find out that it only costs a dollar to get in, I think ‘well, fuck it.’

I next remember being inside the theater. There are a group of middle aged women around me talking in British accents, which for some reason I copy.

During the movie I find out that I’m actually with A.J.R and E.G. While watching it (I remember absolutely nothing that happens on the screen) E.G's face and mine get quite close together but I initiate nothing. Later I see E.G and A.J.R cuddling up. Suddenly he literally picks her up in his arms and throws her at me, insinuating I should do something. She lands next to me and says “don’t even think about it.”

Non-Dream/Lucid/Non-Lucid

DREAM 1: I was in a train station. I suddenly though of doing an RC. After realizing I'm dreaming, I didn't actually tried to accomplish one of my dream goals, but to look at my surroundings to see what my dream looks like. I looked at an analog clock. It looked really weird and unreal. It didn't had any numbers from 1 to 5 except for 3 which looked more like 3,5.
DREAM 2: I was at my computer, talking to a bud. He was playing a game that he didn't wanted to give me and I really wanted it cos I was bored and had nothing to play.

This dream was very faded and unclear...its unclarity almost made me vomit!
I really need to make my dreams more vivid.

The first shared dreaming attempt will take place this tuesday night the 5th of July and wednesday morning the 6th of July. It will take place at the Chichen-Itza Mayan Pyramid. Look at the info section of the dream journal above for more info. If you're interested in participating in this project, go to the thread about it, read about it, and fill out your info. http://www.dreamviews.com/f19/intern...roject-117888/
