This dream occurred on the night of January 23, 2011. In this dream, my fiance is not really my true fiance, he is a dark haired, skinny man. We were boarding a train. We were going to Rome for some sort of trip, it felt like a school trip, but my family was going. We were going to go stay with a friend of my fiance's. During the train ride, we were seated next to two famous psychology professors that were being swooned over. People kept asking me who they were, and I just kept replying "They're professors from _____ University". (At the time the school had a name and the professors had names too, but I can't remember them We arrived in Rome and went to my fiance's friends' apartment. It was on a higher story, and it was a darkly lit space. It had a bedroom to the left, a living space to the right of the front door where the window was, and then in the back was another sleeping area that wasn't closed off. There didn't seem to be a kitchen or cooking space. My fiance's friend greeted us and they began to catch up. We heard a noise in the bedroom area to the left and the friend said it was his room mate. He told us not to talk to him, he was strange and prone to anger. It was night when we arrived, and our bed's had been made out. Our bed was some blankets on the floor and my fiance's friend was going to sleep on the couch next to us. My fiance kept talking to his friend and I was laying there awkwardly. Then we all started going to sleep, but my fiance kept pushing me away and looking at his friend and they'd whisper to each other. His friend suggested that they should go out. I gave my fiance a look, to imply we had a busy day, and he started to tell me how he couldn't be tied down anymore and how he needed to be free from me. I didn't even protest, I just sat on the make shift bed. He and his friend began to talk about the girls they would meet and I felt this was really inappropriate since I was sitting there. They got up and left and I was shattered. I walked into the front living space, where my parents were sleeping on an air mattress, and I saw a trundle bed that was really small made up. I figured it was for my sister, but since she wasn't here, I got in the bed and began to cry. I took my ring off of my ring finger and set it on the table. Then, thinking better of it, hoping my fiance would reconsider, I put it on my middle finger. Every time I wanted to start to cry, I would tell myself "You don't have anyone anymore. There's nothing to cry about, it won't change it". I remember laying on the tiny bed, barely able to fit my torso, with my legs curled up so they wouldn't fall off, and thinking how close we were to the creepy room mate. I drifted to sleep, but woke up to a strange looking man staring at me, standing over me. I thought it was a dream, until I really looked and saw him standing there, his arm on my arm. I jerked awake and he disappeared. My mom asked me what was wrong and I whispered "He was standing over me". About that time, my now ex and his friend returned and they were loud and obnoxious, talking about the girls they'd been with and laughing. I was furious and lay on the little bed, pretending to be asleep. I kept worrying about the room mate. -- I recalled part of the dream on Feb. 10, 2011 We were in a barn that was old and had seen better days. There was scrap metal piled and loose in the yard in front of the barn and it was strewn everywhere. Inside the barn was a cleared space with bright lights. There were large draft horses out beside the barn in a fenced area that was very muddy. The horses had on muddy, nylon halter and their legs and tails were muddy too. I wanted to go help them, but I then saw someone walking back toward the property. He was dressed in a suit and had on sunglasses. He had two men behind him. I then heard rustling behind me and some men inside the barn appeared. They were holding guns. I hid behind a piece of scrap metal as the two groups opened fire on each other. My family was there beside me then, and we had to run to get inside the barn to safety by flitting from junk pile to junk pile. We crawled through a hole in the barn wall. Inside, the open area, there was a steel chair and a person was seated and had wires strapped to them. I was concerned and the gun fire had come inside and there was blood all over the place where men had fallen and either gotten up or dragged themselves to a safer place. I felt like an observer, watching the chaos, and no one saw me. -- Some time passed, and we were in a large hall. There was a clear pool that was very large, Olympic sized. I was with a group of people, I assume still in Rome, and my ex was there too, but I wasn't with him. We were looking at the sights in what seemed to be a tour. We all waded into the pool and looked around. The water was about neck deep when you were standing. It was warm and pleasant. I then realized I needed to brush my teeth. I had on braces for some reason, and I needed to brush them. I got out of the pool and walked to a bathroom down a hallway and it was my Aunt and Uncle's bathroom (Not literally, but I knew it was. I already had tooth paste in my mouth and needed to spit it out. I spit into the sink and turned on the water, but white liquid came out. I realized it must be milk, since that was supposed to be healthy, so I washed my mouth out with milk.

In the first dream i'm at my high school where we get told, that there is a bowling team and to join you need to buy your own pins. In my second dream i'm at home with some friends. It's not my real home, but in the dream it's my home. The house is kind of a mixture between my best friends house and my grandfathers house. We're playing with my brother, in some free to play, shit, first person shooter. The guys he is playing with and himself is using a program to communicate. We try to use the program and i remember it being very very bad. Later in the dream, one of my friends have to leave and i say goodbye to him. Moments later one of my other friends arrive with his father at my house. He have his bowling pins with him and they are in several big bags which are impossible to carry. There is a staircase outside my door and i want to help carry them up the stairs, but it's just pretty much impossible. At some point, i almost get the hang of it, but i'm carrying the bag in a really weird way and his dad tells me that i won't get up the staircase. I just sort of think "Fuck you, i'm getting these pins up the stairs!" and finally gets them up. Seconds later they slide down the stairs and he starts laughing and i'm really frustrated. The dream ends.
DREAM LUCID COMMENTS I'm folowing this guide and today was the FILD day. Lately, I've found that I've got more of a dream body then normal. I don't have any school this week so I went to bed half past 1. I am in some sort of building, it feels like it's high in the air. The dreams feels different then all the other dreams I had before. There are 2 people with me. Inside I know that they are members from dreamviews, and they are trying to teach someone, probably me, about lucid dreaming. They are trying to make me lucid, but I'm losing the dream and wake up I don't know what they said or what their names where (in the dream I knew) when I woke up, only that it had to do with lucid dreaming Before I knew it, I had moved so forget the FILD for now, I checked my mobile, it's around 7 o'clock. I get out of bed and use the bathroom, drink some water and try to get back to sleep, which is very hard for some reason. Finnaly I'm back asleep. My uncle, aunt, nephew, my mother, father and myself, are on holiday. We are in a small shop which sells hats and all kinds of souvenirs. The back of the store is open, and there is a pool where allot of people are swimming. I decide it's to hot for me to swim, because I somehow know the water is hot too. While my parents stay with me, my uncle, aunt and nephew go swimming. I try on some hats, and my fater is talking about a friend of mine who is really nice for helping me out with something. He keeps on talking about how beautifull friendship is but then I get a sight switch. I see the pool, but it's frozen, people are skating on it and it has started snowing. There is some guy who keeps throwing buckets of cold water over the ice, and one guy safes another guy who fell in the water where the ice was broken. I wake up, can't remember a thing after that and fall back to sleep I have no body, I can only see things. I see these prison cels, which are forming some kind of tower, in a square. There is one lady guard which either can fly or uses a elevator to go up and down. The prisoners are trying to escape, my sight switches. I see the same prison, and the same guard. But now the prison is filled with female orcs Then I wake up again. I had more dreams, but I can't remember them because they where very, very short. I got out of bed around noon.
Normal Dream Lucid Dream Side-Notes ------------------------------------------------------------Sorry for not posting, dream recall has been terrible lately. My friend Tony is pulling me to class down the hallway, but I tell him that we don't have school. (There really is no school today, that's why I told him that.) He keeps trying to pull me and says that we do have school, but I won't budge. I start wondering about why I'm at school and realize I'm dreaming. I plug my nose and breathe in verifying what I thought. I realize school must be a dream sign for me. (A lot of my dreams in the past have been at school.) I thought about flying, but wanted the dream to last a while so I went to class. When I walked in, I had this feeling I had to get my friend to class. I walk back into the hallway and decide to summon him. I close my eyes and imagine him down the hall, when I open my eyes he's walking towards me. I smile to myself, happy it worked. I went back to my classroom and and sat down. My social studies teacher came in and talked about a field trip. (I vaguely remember her scamming us out of $100.) ------------------------------------------------------------ Side-Notes: -I was reality checking throughout the dream which is probably why it lasted a bit longer. -I'm glad I didn't start flying because I want to wait until I have good dream stabilization before I try to do things like fly which may make the dream shorter. I am however going to continue to work on dream control and simple tasks like summoning objects/people and I might try transporting myself out of a building in the same way I summoned Carlos.

The family are playing monopoly on the rug in my Grandma's living room. I join the game, but my auntie wants me to go shopping with her, so I oblige. I have a severe water infection, so I keep wetting myself in her car. When we get to the shopping centre and begin shopping, I decide I should buy a gingerbread man for each of my family members. However, I later remember that my sister is allergic to gingerbread, so I buy her one made from wool. Then, my sister turns up outside the shop we are in. She is very displeased with the wool gingerbread man, stating that I should have known she already made one as part of her art project. Regardless, we look at jumpers together, and find that we like the same one, but both come away without it. Then the dream changes, and my auntie and I are driving up a scenic lane towards a small church, but I am not sure whether we're supposed to be attending a wedding, christening or funeral. Outside, after the nondescript service, I meet Robert Hardy beside a dark pool of water, and we discuss who my partner is, and what his job used to be.

My partner and his best friend are sitting by the fire, around a large, wooden dining table discussing potential solutions for illness triggers. They are working with flow charts and all sorts of other complicated diagrams.
03.11.2010Lucid #4 Car (DILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I slept at 00:11, woke up at 4:30 on the couch, fell into bed at 4:40, woke up 8:40. - I am in my car. I drive down a road. Everything seems normal. I wonder if this is a dream (my car is a dream sign). I look at the dashboard and it seems (distorted) like it is a horizontally stretched image. On a slow rate i gain lucidity. I observe the parked cars and try to hear something in order to stabilize the dream. Everything sounds quietly and unclear (no high frequencies). It's like there is music playing outside the car. I think of opening the window, but i don't want to do any sudden moves that may make me lose the dream. I drive very slowly. I reach the end of the road. There is sea in front of me and road on my left and right. I stop the car in the middle of the crossroad. I see a bus coming, but don't care about it. I look at the sea from inside the car and think that it would be fun to try and walk on the water (that was one of my goals). I get out of the car from the right door (i remembered that later! driver seat was on the left of the car). I walk but not very steady. To floor (road) is filled with water flow, pretty strong. I reach the front of my car. I feel that i m loosing it. I close my eyes and try to spin but i wake up _________________________ 03.11.2010Lucid #5 John (DILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID -Many other dreams that i didn't write down. 10 o' clock. After meditating and tring to WILD for about an hour, i roll over with my hand under my chest. I fall asleep - I am at a place with tabbles (the scene looks like a big bus station). I have a suitcase with me. I look for some money in my pockets as i leave my stuff on a tabble. I see J. sitting nearby. He waves me to join him. I feel somewhat uncomfortable cause i haven't seem him for a while. I shout to him "just a second" and try to find coins in my chest pocket. I somehow gain lucidity. Instantly i wake up and find myself still fiddling my chest for coins! hahaha
I am on York High Street, and there is a HUGE jewellery store on the corner. I go in, and begin browsing rings in rotating glass cabinets, but this time I discuss the type of ring I would like with a shop assistant. That part of the dream seems to go on forever, and I sense that the ladies in the shop are in a much higher class than me, and wonder what I'm doing in such an expensive store. When I take one of the rings to the checkout, the lady checks the computer for my account, and I am scared that she will realise I bought a ring the day before. (HAHAHAHA, I'm such a loser in my dreams.) The assistant looks at me strangely, but even in the dream I am not sure how much of this is in my own imagination, as I leave the shop, I feel a bit weird, but I continue on my merry way regardless.
I browse a jewellery store for engagement rings for a while. Then I go down an extremely large step on to the cobbled streets of York. I am wearing a very big, sparkly diamond ring, which I keep stopping to admire as I walk around. This is very uncharacteristic of me, because I hate wearing showy jewellery, and especially the idea of flaunting my engagement ring.
01.11.2010With E. at a cement place. (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I am with E. at a cement place. There are two big (enormous) and long walls of cement. It's like they are built so that a river flows in between them. We are walking on a platform built on the side of the walls (arrow in the pic). There are bridges every few meters. They are steep, narrow and go really high. I am afraid when looking at them, even more when i imagine myself walking on them. Those bridges didn't have smooth floor but stairs. Have a look at the pic and i hope you 'll get the idea.

Dad is sitting in my living room examining his phone bill. Mum rings me and informs me that he might need me to help him find a new contract because his current one is becoming too expensive to run.
I am in a high-tech cinema, with lots of bright neon lights. I am sitting with a crowd of people in the lobby, we are on white fold-up chairs trying to watch a film. The problem is, Jesse Eisenberg is sitting on the chair next to me making annoying comments, so I ring my mum and tell her that I'm going to stay for the 7:30pm showing in the more private cinema. I see an image in the back of my mind of driving back home in the dark, and though I have apprehensive thoughts of this being too dangerous, I still decide to stay.
My partner (let's call him P) is sitting on a train with a random character from 'Harry Potter.' (We'll call her D.) I can see the dream as if I were looking through the window of the train at his side for the first part. At first, they seem to be taking a relaxing trip on a winding track through the countryside, P is relaxed and smiling as his journey companion chatters away with enthusiasm. Then, D informs P that she thinks he needs to express himself more boisterously (seeing as that his usual countenance is gentle, nurturing and calm.) Somehow, D then has him singing opera and jigging about on the train, which makes him feel very embarrassed and foolish. When he comes home, I ask P whether he enjoyed his trip, and half smiling, he puts a video tape in our ancient-looking TV and shows me the events of the train journey. I place my hand on his shoulder, whilst trying to weigh up the appropriate response, I know the event made him feel uncomfortable, but I want him to know that I would fully support him if he wanted to either keep his usual behaviour, or adopt a more outlandish persona.) When the tape is finished, he forces a laugh and draws me closer to him. I hug him, and he tells me how he thinks D's a little too forthright, and how he would be scared to spend too much time with her, so if I were worried, (I wasn't, she's a book character ) I should cast my fears aside.
So in the dream my dad was batman but he wasn't in the suit, and he decided to build something I didn't know what it was but to see it me and some random kids had to go in a floating bus and drive around a road I didn't know. The kids thought the bus would crash but the driver (which was some cat lady thing) said she knew more about coordinate grids then them. We reached a dead end and she was trying to navigate it so the kids could see a sign on the side of a huge brick pillar, we saw this orange kids and the driver said she should get on, then we circled around the dead end again, but we crashed. The last thing I remember is that it cost 350 million dollars and we made 350 million dollars so we broke even., but my dad had cleared out this beautiful grassy field for the launch area and parents were watching their kids so happily
So tonight I had a really strange expirience. I was trying to keep myself stable and the weirdest thing ever happened! I didn't have any problem on gaining lucidity and RCs and all. But when I tried to keep myself stable (the thing with looking at your hands and stuff) I would end op staring at my hand for what felt like hours and losing lucidity because I was starting to realise what I was doing. Then I would wake up, this happened like five times this night. My dream recall is also not very clear, but I do remember I ended up trying to push my hands through a wall because I thought I could do that in a dream.
