    1. 05/17/11 Sleep (4) 11:30PM - 6:00AM

      That's right. 4 separate dreams! I drank half a cup of natural apple juice before I went to bed (Not sure if this had any effect on my dream recall or not). Anyway, I'll try to go in the order I remember them.

      My first dream had to do with some kind of family gathering at the Clevenger residence (The family I am going to move in with once I graduate). I don't remember much about this one, besides the fact that there was a spider chilling on a fence and I was messing with it. The spider looked something like a mix between a predator and a skulltula (and almost as big). I remember doing something to subdue it, but I don't remember what. I know I didn't touch it; that thing was scary as fuck.

      The next dream I remember took place in school, as usual. There was a party in my classroom. Possibly having to do with being the end of the school year. Not sure. The classroom was packed, so I decided to go in the lunch line to get some food. My friend, Diorra stopped me and teased me about going in the line to see Vanessa (ex). I didn't understand why she'd even bring her name up to me, as we haven't dated in a year and a half and haven't talked in months. When I got to the lunch line, I saw her about 5 people in front of me, and I just went back to the classroom.

      I'm not sure if this is the same dream or if it continued where the last one left off or what, but I'll count it as a 3rd dream... The bell rang and I began heading to English class (I took English last semester). The teacher said my group's assignment was to fill up a bottle with shampoo from some really old theater/stage that was all the way out in like Virginia. Why my teacher wants us to go to Virginia is beyond me, but we did it. I forget who drove. We arrived at the stage in about 15 minutes time (Virginia is a 3 hour drive minimum). It was dark, but the stage was lit, and we got whatever amounts of shampoo we needed for our bottle. Before getting back in the car, I saw some steps leading down a hill into some trees. I followed them 'til I saw a large house with the lights on. For some reason, it just popped in my head that this was Abby (some girl in my AP Environmental Science class) and that I should leave, so I got back in the car and I think the dream ended.

      The last dream I remember is a dream I've had for awhile. It has to do with the video game "DOOM". I used to play this game a lot as a kid, and last night I dreamt I was on the Nightmare difficulty setting (basically the hardest thing you've ever seen. 10x harder than your Call of Duty Veteran or Halo Legendary) but died as soon as I took damage from anything. If you've ever payed on the Nightmare difficulty, you could imagine how annoying this really is.


      I'm somewhat surprised I didn't DILD in my dreams last night, as I performed at least 20 RCs the day before. I also attempted MILD, using the mantra "I will be aware that I am dreaming".

    2. 05/17/11 Nap (1) 3:00PM - 6:30PM

      by , 05-18-2011 at 12:44 PM (Graham's DJ)
      I attempted to WILD and got the closest I have ever been. My entire body was numb (I don't think it was paralyzed yet) and I could feel my hearing slowly fading out the noise from upstairs and could hear a faint whirring. I could also see flashing lights as my eyes moved quickly back and forth inside my head. I like most everything about where I am sleeping now, except that my girlfriend's parents' room is directly above mine. There is a lot of noise coming from upstairs, especially when I try to take a nap. I felt the numbness begin to wear off and rolled over and slept normally.

      I dreamt some kids from my school were on Dream Views and were explaining to me some tips on having my first LD. One person I specifically remember was Mark. This is very interesting, because he talks to me and shows me a lot of things in my math class. For a 3 hour nap, it is relatively disappointing to only remember one dream, and so vaguely. I took a 50 mg half-tablet of B6 before I took a nap. I think I'm going to do the B6 once a week from now on, after reading about side effects and such.

    4. Fighter Jets, Angry people, and Friends.

      by , 05-18-2011 at 12:01 PM (The Escapades of FireDevil)
      This started off with me at a friends house. It wasn't a house I recognized so, I don't exactly know which friend. A bunch of us were just doing random stuff outside. But, then we decided to open the garage door, inside this garage was a bunch of planes, his dad was some sort of pilot I guess. We were all in awe of how many planes there were. Then my friends dad came home and he was really angry at us for looking at his most prized possesions, thus swearing at us until he was red in the face. Here's the weird part, I was just sitting on the front porch and his dad was randomly landing planes in the backyard, but that's not all, a red dot appeared on the ground infront of me, I backed away and a fighter jet managed to hover in that area. The jet turned towards me and its guns came out of there hiding. I was about to be shot at by a fighter jet! I ran around the side of the house and into the backyard, along with one other friend. We wanted to go inside through the glass door, however it would not budge. We saw the fighter jet round the corner and point its guns at us and I screamed at Mr. Gibbers (Friends dad) to help us. He came over and asked what was wrong, I pointed at the fighter jet that was no longer there.

      Shortly after the dream ended.
    5. Meditation Dream

      by , 05-18-2011 at 11:51 AM
      I was "awake" at 4:45 AM. Dad told i should stop trying to lucid dream. I of course did not listen, I laid down in my room and cleared my mind. I focused on a violet sphere and rotated it with my mind. I then had a falling sensation.
      The dream ended.

    6. was i rude?; subway mall

      by , 05-18-2011 at 11:40 AM
      Good morning, everybody.

      Dream #1

      I was possibly in a classroom. All the desks were arranged in a circle. The room was lit with kind of dull, greenish, fluorescent light. The class or meeting had ended, and everybody was headed out of the room. The room was empty as I left it.

      There was a boy somewhere behind me. He was blonde, well-groomed, with a kind of effeminate bearing and voice. He had said something in class, and now he asked me, "Was I rude when I said that?"

      I wanted to say yes, but I thought that would be wrong. So I said, "Well, you work so hard that nobody would think you were just plain rude. But people might think you were defensive."

      Dream #2

      I was walking along a sidewalk in a residential part of town. It was a sunny day, but there was snow on the ground. The snow had been cleared from the sidewalks and streets, but it was still piled up around the curbs and the grassy areas between the sidewalks and curbs. The snow piles were all wet and slushy from the sun.

      I was apparently heading to a dance class (?). But, as I crossed a street and then walked past a glass-walled bus stop, I felt a bad headache and decided not to go to class. The headache was like a hard, concrete-like feeling in the back of my head. My eyes also felt sunken in, and I had a real drop in energy.

      But I also felt like if I didn't go to dance class I would teach my teachers and classmates a lesson, as if they had done something to insult me and now I was paying them back.

      I was apparently walking a few blocks, up a mild slope, to a train stop, possibly for one of the red trains, maybe the 2-train. I walked past either a college campus with red brick buikdings or a block of very nice, red-brick houses. There were tall trees shading the sidewalks.

      A couple of tall, young, beautiful people were walking close behind me. The neighborhood may actually have been moderately busy with people overall. The people were joking about something they had done to a friend or colleague of theirs. They had taken something of his. When he got upset about it, they wondered why he could be so sensitive.

      I passed another (or the same?) glass-walled bus stop. I now had in my left hand two bags from fast food restaurants. The first bag was from Dunkin' Donuts. It was a coffee. The second bag was from somewhere else. It was food, maybe even a donut.

      I was getting close to the subway station. But suddenly I was in a vehicle like a big minivan. I was in the van with a few other people who acted or looked like subway passengers. The van was driving down concrete ramps that looked somewhat like ramps connecting different platforms in a subway station.

      We kept going down. The area we were driving through looked like a mix between a subway station and a mall. There were stores like department stores and drug stores all through the corridors.

      A big, muscular, kind of pale, white man who looked like a soldier sat somewhere across from me. But he also seemed, at times, to be driving this vehicle.

      He told me and a couple other passengers, "When I'm driving a train, and they tell me we have to be delayed, I let everybody know exactly what's going on. I tell them, we'll be here for 28 minutes, and I countdown, and so on. That way people know.

      "Some people like to keep passengers in the dark about what's going on. I think dispatch does, too! But I don't. When people don't know what's going on, they feel like the train will never start running again."

      The man stopped the vehicle. We were really deep down by now. I saw the subway train off to the left. The front of it had a side door, like for a semi truck, which was swung open. I understood that the man was going to conduct the train.

      I jumped out the left side of the van, but I landed outside on the right side of the van. For some reason I was worried about whether I had jumped out fast enough. I thought if I was too slow, the soldier would be impatient with me.

      The area down here was also like a mall, and there were a lot of people lounging around like they would in a mall. I saw two big drugstore-like stores, one of which may possibly have been a bookstore. I thought that I might need to go to the store before I got on the train.

    8. A SECOND almost lucid -.-

      by , 05-18-2011 at 09:02 AM
      Oh wow , I can't believe it ACTUALLY happened again -.-.

      I can't remember too much of the dream , but I remember I was my old teacher Esti and I realized that it's a dream. And then just like a few weeks ago , the dream became a picture and I looked at it from afar and I was like "NONONOO COME ON COME ON LUCIDITY!!! MUST GRASP!" and I can't remember what happened then. I either woke up or the dream just continued and I lost my lucidity.

    9. The counter-terrorists [5/17/2011] Entry Three

      by , 05-18-2011 at 08:32 AM
      [Tuesday][8][3][6]

      I'm sure I had a couple of dreams last light but my most vivid one was the last one I had upon waking up.

      Myself and a couple of friends spawn on what I believe to be was a counter-strike: source map. I was unfamiliar with the map but since my friends were novices I was the leader. My team was Billy, AJ, Mike and Max. They happen to be random kids from my track team for the most part. We approach a staircase that makes a right hand turn into a small hallway that wraps around to the Demon who happens to be our new objective. The demon was a small almost azn child with Deep red eyes. I peak the AWPer who is sniping from a person sized opening at the top of the staircase. I spot a guy in the hallway and say "BILLY SHOOT DOWN THE HALLWAY" only to find out that billy has no guns...While preoccupied with the AWPER AJ some how managed to get into the hallway where he was fighting the demon. I quickly put on my try-pants and Dinked the shit out of the awper. I looked down the hallway and the demon was about to tear apart AJ's stomach. To my surprise he pulled his pants down and started sucking his dick. Which for some reason to me was even more alarming. All of a sudden we were on the track bus with the demon. Perhaps we had apprehended him and he was being held by us? For some reason I had to kill him so my friend MikeO lent me this badass pocket knife that had four blades. I quickly cut through his throat which practically melted on this extremely sharp knife. All of his guts fell out of his throat and everyone on the bus yelled "Ewww" as if someone just threw up or something.

    11. Nightmare - homeless guy attacking me (morning of 5-17-11)

      by , 05-18-2011 at 07:10 AM
      My memory of how this began is kind of sketchy now:
      I'm working on a class project with 2 other students. One of them, a girl, gets mad at me for some reason - unjustifiably as I recall. Since I can't stand to be on bad terms with someone IWL, naturally in my dream I seek out this girl later on to straighten things out.

      The following I remember vividly:
      I'm alone in a house at night. I'm possibly in that girl's house trying to find her. I walk past French double doors that are wide open; beyond them is a dimly lit back patio. There's a homeless-looking man sitting on a covered porch swing outside, and he's glaring at me. Part of his clothing is green, and he has a bushy beard. He looks threatening, he's not supposed to be there, and the doors are open - so now I'm scared. He's watching me, so as quickly as possible, I shut the right side of the double doors, and just as I try to shut the left side, he lunges at me. Holy crap!! I try to shout for help, but I find my throat severely congested and I can barely make a sound. He comes at me reaching with one arm, menacingly. Desperately, I reach out to grab his hand in an effort to stop him from grabbing me... and I wake up in bed, actually grabbing at thin air!

      I've added this to my mental list of nightmares to revisit in future lucid dreams. Nothing against homeless people - heck, I give them money IWL - but I'll beat the living piss out of this particular DC the first chance I get. No one lunges at me from dark patios and gets away with it!
      ***** UPDATE *****
      About a week after I dreamed this, a REAL homeless man who VERY CLOSELY RESEMBLED the nightmare DC came into my work IWL and acted very strangely. He had the same bushy gray beard, the same creepy look, and was even wearing green!! He asked about getting a job, hit on me, and started undoing his fly as if he planned to expose himself to an older woman who was getting fitted by our seamstress (I work at a drycleaners). I was about to tell him to get the fuck out, but he decided not to whip out his junk, and finally left.

    12. trees again

      by , 05-18-2011 at 04:56 AM
      I'm navigating corridors inside a public high school and see my friend Kyle waving at me.I become lucid. The first thing I try to do is "find" a member of my own personal dream army behind the door to the bathroom. It doesn't work. I decide to fly away, just missing a passing car while crossing a street. I come across a row of tall redwood trees by a baseball field. There are a group of DCs hanging out in the branches. I float up to them and ask one his name. He says his name is Kha.
      Suddenly, I find myself in a field at home. There are strange trees present that aren't there in real life. I try to push my finger through my hand to make sure I haven't woken up, and my hand stretches like rubber. I fly around the trees a few times and see that a darker tree has apparently killed a lighter tree.
      I wake up.

    13. Rage in School

      by , 05-18-2011 at 04:29 AM (Realm of Dreams)
      This the first dream I decided to record, a weird one indeed.;)

      I was in school near to water fountain, after I drank water I saw one of my friends had pistol. He offered to give it to me and I gladly accepted. I went to bathroom and hid the gun in my clothes and went out. Somehow I knew that two people that I didn't know are coming to school. I was walking to the front gate.

      I don't know what caused this but I suddenly felt hate against those two people and wanted to kill them! So I became trigger happy, took out the gun and shoot a student in head and another one in leg.:D Stranglely, there was no blood at all and more strangely, no one screamed! Then I ran to front gate to meet those people. I saw one of them get out of car.

      I went back in school and when that guy was halfway in, I pulled out my gun and emptied the clip on him. But somehow he didn't catch even a single bullet and ran out of school, got in the car and drove away! I suddenly realises what I've done!!! I felt terrible fear and depression!!! I knew that I fucked up my whole life and when the cops get here I'll be in jail.

      I decided to commit suicide but my gun was empty. So I thought maybe I could jump down from rooftop. I went out of school and searched for a building which I can get on top of. I found and old one. This part of dream was a bit disorted and stupid because I couldn't run fast enought and jump to grab the edge.:lol: One moment I was on street the other moment on top of that building.:shock: Until I found out that the height isn't high enough to effectively kill me.

      So I decided to jump from school's rooftop. I needed the keys for it. So I went back in and got the keys by threatening the person who had them. School interior wasn't how it was supposed to be.:roll: I went upstairs and noticed other students follow me up. So I threatened to kill them if they don't go back down. Among them, I saw one of my friends that I like. On my way up I saw the headmaster in his room drinking something in one of the glasses that I have in home.:eek:

      I unlocked the door and got to rooftop. I wasn't thinking about jumping down, I don't know why. I saw the guy that gave me the pistol beside me and saw the headmaster on the other side of the rooftop saying I should go see him ASAP before the situation gets worse! I told the guy I'm not gonna tell that I've got the gun from him. I lied.:D

      Then I was in headmasters room talking to him!:? I told him where I've got the gun from and told him it wouldn't have happened if I didn't.:( I looked at my gun, it looked like as if it was made of paper and cloth.:lol: The headmaster told me that I'm totally fucked!!! So I cried to death and woke up.:panic:

      Dream Signs:

      1. After I killed a student and injured another one, no one behaved as the should.
      2. I couldn't run or jump, teleportation.
      3. My guns seemed like as if it was made of cloth and paper. (The most obvious one)
      4. Headmaster was drinking in a glass that's mine.

      This dream seemed pretty logical and real I'm surprised!

      Reallity Checks:

      Unfotunately, even after I noticed these strange things I forgot to reallity check. Because of that, I didn't become lucid.

    14. Eternity

      , 05-18-2011 at 04:23 AM (Hyu's Adventures)
      I haven't posted in a while, mostly because my dream recall is really bad right now, presumably because I'm somewhat overworked.
      I do remember dreams regularly, and the global theme of each dream, but barely any details.
      This is the only one since my last entry where I was able to recall some details.


      I am travelling through many dimensions.
      In each dimension I have to fulfill some sort of goal in order to be able to progress to the next one.
      It feels a bit like a computer game, like playing the myst series. Once I understand the challenge of this dimension and I'm able to solve it,
      some sort of path opens to a new dimension.
      I don't really know why I'm doing this, I only remember that I need to "get to the end" to save someone.
      Even though I am aware that I'm dreaming, I don't understand the overall plot or why I need to save this person, or even who this person is.
      I am definitely lucid, but my understanding of what this means is limited.

      I'm progressing through the worlds, there are many of them, and I get stuck in some because I have trouble understanding what I have to do.
      I remember a sand desert, a salt desert, a jungle, a Maya temple, and being on an asteroid in Saturn's ring, but I can't remember anything specific about the challenges.

      I enter a new world.
      It is cold. My feet are touching the ice cold ground.
      I'm standing on a platform made out of stone.
      It hasn't been maintained for a long time, there's grass growing over it.

      It's raining heavily, I can't see far. I'm shivering, I'm so cold, and it's getting worse because of the rain.
      Why do I have to be running around barefoot and without a shirt?

      I understand that this is the final world. This is where the person I am searching for is.
      I somehow know that she managed to solve all the previous puzzles, but got stuck in this final world and has been trapped here ever since.
      For some reason this scene feels oddly familiar, like I have seen this place before.

      I start exploring, but the world keeps repeating itself into all eternity.
      There's nothing but the platform, and an infinity of stone fountains every ~10 meters.
      They all look identical.
      How am I ever going to find her? And what the hell could the puzzle in this world be? there is nothing here!
      I get a bit worried that I might not get out myself, I wonder if I can freeze to death.
      I'm never cold in my dreams... this is all very odd.

      I start running around aimlessly, and I keep running for a long time, hoping to find anything out of the ordinary...

      ... after what seems like hours, I feel like giving up.
      I turn around, looking at where I came from, when I finally spot a person.
      She's the one I've been looking for! finally!

      She's sitting down, leaning against one of the fountains, which is why I didn't see her when I ran by.
      I approach her and try to initiate a conversation.
      She notices me, but she shows little reaction.

      I look into her eyes... they seem empty.
      There is no life in them, looking into them feels so very sad.
      She seems to have completely given up on everything, what has happened?

      "How long have you been here?"
      "Eternity..."

      I feel really sad, this poor women!
      I wonder if she'll ever recover... I somehow doubt it.

      I can't stop shivering due to the cold... I hate the cold...
      I look at the closest fountain.
      For some odd reason I suddenly understand the riddle behind this world.
      I grab a knife, which it seems I have been carrying with me, and cut myself into my left index finger.
      I let a few drops of blood drop into the fountain.
      It turns red with the 3rd drop, and the world collapses into darkness.

      Nothing happens...
      The women says something meaningful, but very sad.
      I tell her that it'll be alright, even though I have no idea what will happen next.
