    2. Getting started....bits of older dreams I remember...

      by , 09-18-2010 at 06:58 AM
      So these are more like notes of past dreams than a full blown summary. For some reason they've stuck in my head :p

      Black hole dream- All I can really remember of this dream is Earth being destroyed by a black hole. If I remember right, I tried to save it, but failed.

      Sick person dream- All I remember is seeing an extremely sick person in the bathroom mirror. Can't remember if it was me or not.

      First "Lucid"-I was walking in my local walmart with two of my friends. One of them said something to which I responded, "Yea but this is a dream" instantly realizing this made me lucid. However my n00bishness got the best of me and I didn't know to stabalize. The entire place started spinning into blackness and I woke up .

      Obama lol

      there was a metal concert hosted at the white house. There was a bunch of kids smoking weed. Obama was smoking a joint and then a cigarette. He looked around that the kids going crazy at the concert and then he was like "Oh shit... I forgot to set up my security team for this... I hope my presidential secrets aren't trashed and found out".

      a dangerous glass of water


      I was walking in a hallway of some apartment place. I ran into Bonnie lying in the hallway with an empty glass of water. She told me to put it back in the one apartment she was in... and she told me to be discreet about it because if they found out she snuck a glass of water, that they would kill her literally. Unwillingly i take the glass. I go to the aparment and put it in the door. Outside is a womanw ith red hair smiling at me. i feel like it's asuka merged with someone else i know. I am trying to be sneaky so I walk away.

      I wind up in my apartment and i start practicing Kung fu. In my mind it's because i was quickly in and out of the apartment, quick like kung fu. So i just continue the form iuntil the dream fades out.

      Dream labyrinth.


      I discovera a labyrinth of tunnels and hallways that exists in another dimension. I discover i can quickly get aroudn the dream map. Ever hallway leads to a different house. I can leave my house walking down this hallway and shortly wind up at a friends house. I come across a woman I know from waking life, she has a cast on one leg but seems to walk normally. I follow her to her place and she is always smiling.

      Gone

      I walk into a room to look at pictures of married couples. I can see a list of peoples names with pictures of couples. I recognise Erik from the metal band and his wife. I go to my spot on the list but there is no picture. I remember there was a drawn picture of me and Asuka there before, but now it's removed, because now the list only must contain real pictures from couples in waking life. I am a bit sad that i don't have a picture to submit to the list because Asuka is not with me in waking life.

      Steve in the labyrinth

      i am walking through the labyrinth between dream houses again. I run into steve who i haven't seen for a couple years. He takes me to a few different houses of his. At one of the houses i ask him if he wants to go to a club or something. I say I don't really care to go to try to pick up girls or anything. i just wanna drink and talk with him there. He laughs and says that making friends at clubs is easy, and that many people make it seem harder than it actually is. The hardest part is just opening up and talking to people.

      Fragments of business (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I did not have a rested night. I had a rough day in my business.

      I recall several fragments (around 7-8) of different dreams, all related with business issues. I do not want to bore my readers so I just say I had different issues during all these dreams.

      Missed dream signs:
      - Unknown.


      What I would have done if lucid:
      - Unknown.

    5. Friday, September 17, 2010

      by , 09-18-2010 at 05:16 AM (LiveInTheDream's DJ v2.5)
      Didn't have the best lucid dream last night because I didn't complete the RC-MILD before falling asleep, but I did get some of it done, and so I went some lucid in return. It wasn't the best lucid dream I've ever had, but it was most definitely lucid.

      I found myself walking down the aisle on an airplane with some other people that I had false memories of knowing for a long time, but actually had never seen them before. Suddenly, it hit me that I was seeing something, which I had just told myself meant I was dreaming. "I'm dreaming!" I said in a loud whisper to myself. The DC in front of me heard it, and turned around. "What?" he asked.

      I decided to have some fun with the answer to that.

      "Oh, I just was wondering...do you think I could do a flip right now without ever touching the floor?"

      "Sure, why not? If you touched the ground it would be a roll and not a flip anyway."

      "No, I mean like I won't jump or land."

      The DC just looked at me funny, so I responded by levitating off the floor, running a few steps, flipping, and then landing on pure nothingness.

      "Woah dude, that's awesome!" The DC said.

      "And now..." I said, "What if I did this?"

      I caused the airplane's lights to dim and disco balls and strobe lights and other fancy colored lights to start shining. And then, still just in the middle of the air on the aisle of this airplane, I started break dancing. I did all kinds of cool stuff, but lost lucidity before long and the dream just went back to normal.

      From then on, the dream was about me and the other DC's being shipped to some imprisonment on the airplane, but we managed to break out and find our way through the maze of a facility to finally get back to the plane and commandeer it to get out of there. It was a very interesting dream to go through with lots of details in characters and in the facility as a maze, but unfortunately I don't remember all the details of the deep plot.

      Then something really odd happened. I don't yet have a text color for it so I'll just use orange. Everything went black once that dream ended, and then I felt myself waking up. I look at the ceiling above me, see what time it is, and then roll over--only to stare myself in the face. Yes, before me I saw none other than me lying down on the bed, still apparently asleep. But this was ultra realistic--I'm serious, this didn't feel like a dream. I reached down and touched my hair with an arm that I could feel very clearly, but not see. Felt like it should. I noticed my chin and realized that I had forgotten to shave. Then my eyelids shot open for a brief moment, and my vision faltered, my 'body' being sucked down towards my body. But things came back just for a moment, and I was thinking about seeing where I could go and what I could do in this state when I heard a voice. It said to me: "You have to go back. It's not your time yet." And then as I saw my eyes open I was sucked down into my body completely.

      I sat up for a minute and found everything to be accurate as I had seen it. I had forgotten to shave, it was the exact time I saw on the clock, the lighting of the room had been correct in what I saw...call it what you want, but I think this was a legit OBE and not exactly a lucid dream.

      Kinda weird, though...that makes the second or third time recently at night I'll feel like I'm leaving my body and I'll hear a voice sending me back telling me it's not yet my time. Am I really getting that close to dying? Am I on my way out and then being put stuck back in just at the last moment? Creepy...
    6. Flying once again :)

      by , 09-18-2010 at 04:47 AM
      Heh… I didn’t write this down right when I woke up so I kinda forgot some of the details. ^_^’

      I don’t remember quite how I ended up at this point. I was in a rather plain area and a monstrous creature with blade like arms had stabbed me through the chest. The pain felt quite real but then I realized that it was a dream. When I realized that it was a dream everything suddenly felt more vivid, which included the pain. Since I knew it was a dream I sat down and just told myself that everything was part of my mind and that it could not hurt me, the pain soon faded after that.

      I’m not quite sure what happened after that but I remember going to a large tower with many levels that could lead to the outside on balconies, which was all surrounded by water. I was fighting some monsters there when I remembered how I had wanted to sprout my brown feathered wings again and learn how to fly better with them. I floated down from one of the upper levels of the tower and then tried to sprout my wings. I kept repeating out loud “I will grow my wings”. After repeating the phrase a few times brown feathers started to appear from my arms. Usually I have my wings come from my back but I wanted to try it on my arms. Eventually my arms transformed into wings and then I tried to fly around with them. Having wings on my arms turned out not to work so well, so I focused my mind and tried to shift the wings to my back. It felt so wonderful being able to fly again, and at one point I fell down towards the water and I almost thought I would crash, but at the last moment I pulled up and only my arms and legs ended up grazing the water. The water felt so cool and refreshing.

      Later I was with some guys, and one of them wanted something but I can’t remember what. They were talking about some extremely hot water that was below us, but I don’t remember why. They ended up getting mad at me and tried to attack me but they couldn’t harm me, and the other guy that was there tried to stop him, and soon after I woke up.

      Yay! I'm so happy! ^_^ I seem to be having at least one lucid dream a month, and a few semi-lucids. :3 Actually, I think I haven't updated the number of lucid dreams I've had on my profile enough, because I'm sure I've had more. :/ I hope I can have another lucid soon.

    7. 09/10/10 The Cave of the Spider Demon

      by , 09-18-2010 at 03:58 AM (New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight)
      I was in a strange town, I didn't have any idea how I had gotten there but that fact didn't occur to me at the time. The town looked like something I would expect to see in an RPG or fantasy movie. I was dressed in the white robes of an Assassin's Creed Assassin' which was a good thing since the sun was shining very hotly and the white robes helped keep the direct heat off. That certainly didn't make things comfortable, however, so I was looking for a public place to get in to so I could cool off a bit, I ended up going into a tavern of some kind, though I didn't notice the name.

      The inside of the tavern was quite a bit darker than the bright exterior, so it took my eyes a couple minutes to adjust so I could see clearly. There were lots of people in the place, all talking amongst themselves, making it impossible to determine what any one person was saying. I walked farther into the tavern, I noticed that there were quite a few people looking at me, I wasn't sure why that might be, so I ignored them and went over to the bar and ordered a beer. I wasn't sure why I ordered a beer, I don't even like beer, but I opened it Nd took a drink. It was better than I expected. The bar tender asked if there was anything else I needed, I thanked him and said the beer was it for now... I asked how much I owed him, he said I owed him nothing, I thought that was odd, but I stepped away from the bar.

      I was feeling like a character in a video game, which was how I looked, so I thought I should find a quest to go on. This was a tavern, there should be some kind of quest available in here... So I wandered around the tavern a bit, eavesdropping on some conversations to see if there was anyone who sounded like they needed help. I wasn't hearing anything interesting at first... A man was speaking lovingly to a woman, telling her not to worry, his wife would never find them there... A woman getting quite angry, talking to her friend about how she wanted to kill her cheating husband, a couple of women were kissing as lovers... None of this really got my attention, these were all personal matters, so I continued looking. I was starting to worry that I might become obvious when something caught my attention, someone was talking about their daughter having been kidnapped. I sat down at a table close enough to listen in on their conversation.

      The mother and father were both talking to a rather creepy looking guy, the mother and father looked like pretty well-off individuals, more so than most of the people in the tavern. The creepy guy, on the other hand, looked like he had crawled out of the city dump, or more likely the rats had thrown him out for being too disgusting. As I listened, I found out that the couple's daughter, 15 years old, had ben kidnapped and would most likely be sacrificed to some nasty called a spider demon. At the mention of a sacrafice, the parents looked horrified. The creepy guy seemed to savor that reaction... Then he continued to say the girl would be alive for a good week yet, since that was the gestation period for the little ones. Apparently there were many spiders controlled by this spider demon, and they would feed on the girl for the entire time while making sure to keep her alive, they would lay their eggs in her, when the eggs hatch in several days, the little ones atr hungry. But no worries, the girl would make a ready food supply, if she was lucky she would be too delirious to feel the excruciating pain as the little ones ate her alive from the inside. By now the mother was in tears... The father was begging the guy to tell them where the girl was being held, offering to pay any amount, but the man said he just wanted to be sure the couple would know their daughter would be dying a very slow and painful death. He walked out, leaving the parents too stunned to react.

      I wondered if those horrible things the man had said were true, he also seemed the type to make up a horrible series of lies just to watch the parents' despair and pain... But if there was any chance that was true, I had to check it out, and I had been looking for a quest... So I followed the man from the tavern and onto the street, somehow it had become night while I had been in the tavern, and even stranger was the fact my Assassin's robes had turned black. They were adjusting to keep me hidden in any situation, which I thought was pretty cool. I saw the man moving down the street at a quick pace, he definitely knew where he was heading, and I followed him. I wanted to stay close enough not to lose him and still far enough back that he wouldn't spot me, although my robes kept me well hidden so there wasn't really any threat of that. I followed him for quite a while, he clearly knew where he was going, though I had no clue. He left the town and made his way through the darkness as if he had been there many times before, he had no trouble navigating the narrow trails through the rocky landscape with little to no difficulty while there were a couple places where I nearly face planted due to tripping on a rock I hadn't seen. The man disappeared into a small cave, glancing around to be sure no one was following him before disappearing inside. I noticed that he looked directly at me but gave no indication that he had seen me at all.

      I followed him into the inky darkness of the cave, at which point he finally revealed that he could not see in total darkness by lighting a torch to see by. Of course that made it really easy to follow him through what seemed to be an endless maze of caves branching off in every direction. He finally entered a cavern that was illuminated by torches, that was his final destination. I entered the room to find a scene from a horror movie, there was a girl in there who looked like she was about 15 years old, she was naked and bound to the side of the cavern with what looked like wads of spider webs. That wasn't the worst part of it, either. The worst part of the scene was that there were small spiders crawling all over her, it looked like they were biting her, and there were red welts all over her body where she had been previously bitten, and she was hanging limply from her bonds and crying. When the man entered the room, the girl looked up at him, still crying, she said she wanted to go home, please help her... The man looked at her and laughed, he said he was going to help himself to her, that's what he was going to do, and as he said that he pulled his pants down, I was grateful that I couldn't see what he pulled out. The girl saw it, however, and was repeating over and over, "No… no… no…" and "Don't… don't… don't…" through her tears. That dirty, rotten, filthy piece of shit!

      This would stop now. The girl fell silent as I walked up behind the asshole, she was looking at me with wide eyes… I figured it probably looked to her like I had just materialized out of nowhere. Time to take out the trash… but not too fast… that filthy asshole… his sickening chuckles fell silent as I ran my hidden blade into him. He turned towards me before I could even remove the hidden blade, which resulted in the wound getting torn even bigger… He opened his mouth to curse, but all that came out was blood, he fell down to his knees and coughed up blood again, then fell onto his side and twitched there for a short time before coughing up blood one final time and then being still. I noticed the girl was staring at me with wide eyes, I wondered if I had made a mistake by letting her see what I had just done, well there was nothing to be done for it now. What I had to do was get her out of there.

      I remembered that in dreams I am able to control insects and spiders, so I ordered the spiders on the girl to get off of her, and I was surprised when they actually obeyed. I was actually considering doing a reality check but I was distracted when someone entered the room, this was a big and ugly guy… I remembered the freak saying there was someone he called the Spider Demon. Well, this guy was definitely ugly, but he didn't look like a demon to me. He proved that he truly was able to control the spiders, however, when he summoned all of the spiders in the room to gather around him. I'm not sure what had happened before I had arrived, but the sight of the ugly demon wanna-be set the girl off on some uncontrollable screaming, I wondered what sick things that asshole had already done… He ordered the spiders to attack me, I hadn't had a chance to cut the girl free yet, the asshole was laughing insanely. The spiders seemed to hesitate, but then started moving towards me, but I told them to turn around and attack the asshole. They immediately turned around and surrounded the asshole, completely ignoring his commands now, and then swarmed over him as he yelled his commands at them to attack me, not him. His yelling soon became muffled as the spiders filled his mouth with web, and they completely bound him in web, he fell to the ground, futilely struggling, looking like a big worm trying to break out of a cocoon of spider web, only his nose and eyes were still visible. His muffled cries of anger changed to cries of pain…

      I pulled my attention from the "Spider Demon" and cut the girl free of the spider webs, then carried her out of the cavern. I'm not sure how I managed to find my way through the maze of dark passages, but I somehow did and emerged with the girl into the night. She was still crying, still naked in the night… I took off my robe and wrapped it around her, which left me wearing a non-descript shirt and pair of pants. There were so many spider bites all over her, I thought that since I could control the spiders IWL, maybe I could now use my healing powers IWL… so I focused on healing the girl's wounds, golden energy formed and flowed through her, wiping the bite marks away as if they were nothing more than spots of dirt on her skin, the energy also served to calm her down and relax her, she stopped crying, and now she just looked tired, completely exhausted… so I ended up carrying her all the way back to the town, I was surprised that at no point during that hike did I become tired nor did the girl start feeling heavy. I didn't really consider why that might be. I went down the main street in the town and went directly to the tavern, I wasn't sure if the parents would still be there, but that was a good place to start looking for them.

      The first time I'd walked into the tavern quite a few of the people in the room had turned to look at me. When I walked in carrying the girl wrapped in my robes, everyone in the room turned to look at me. I scanned the crowd, searching for the parents of the girl I was holding, and I spotted them over in the far corner talking to a man who appeared to be an adventurer or a mercenary of some kind, I figured the parents were looking everywhere, desperate for someone to help them find their daughter. Now they were looking at me along with everyone else. I didn't really know what to say, so I just carried the girl over to the couple, at which point I pulled a fold of robe away from the girl's face, revealing her to her parents. The two of them were beside themselves with relief, the girl had been sleeping in my arms, but now she woke up. I set her on her feet, her parents embraced her, the three of them hugging and crying tears of relief and saying a bunch of stuff I couldn't understand due to the fact they were crying tears of joy. Excellent. Another sappy happy ending, though I wasn't sure why that was the way I was thinking of it… I turned to leave the tavern, to leave the happy family to their celebration, but the mother grabbed me, she was saying she didn't know how to thank me enough, she didn't know how to repay me, I just said I hadn't done it for payment. Both parents were expressing their gratitude now, the father took off his cloak and wrapped it around the girl before handing me my robes back. He said they looked like an exceptional garment… I felt like I was going to wake up, so I told them I had to go, there were places I had to be. I turned and left the tavern quickly… as soon as I stepped out the door and around the corner I woke.
    8. 9-17-10: Wing and a Mystery

      by , 09-18-2010 at 12:27 AM (Alone With my Mind)
      Non-Dream Non-Lucid Lucid False Awakening

      ---------------------------
      ||Dream Fragment||
      ---------------------------


      My dream seemed to switch between two people. Myself, and a woman holding an iPhone/iPod Touch. At points in the dream, the woman (I'll call her A), would look at her device reading about another woman named L. She read several letters to L's childhood friends, and other information.

      Up until now, my dream was in a haze. I remember looking for someone. I was throwing water balloons at people at my current school, and was lucid since I could remember. After exiting my school, I switched to A's point of view, and noticed a few letters and info from L. I was in a park next to a gray cement wall. I decided to try out flying, and leaped in the air, and imagined myself sprouting wings. So I did. The wings appeared to be moving automatically, and I was cruising at the same speed and altitude. No matter how much I tried to move my body, I couldn't. I could only move my head and arms. So, I 'swam' through the air, and gained a burst in height and speed. I looked to the side and saw the stars and the Earth, along with my autonomous wings flapping. I observed the almost perfect field below me, with green grass stretching as far an eye can see. I also passed over a couple of disproportional towns, almost cartoon-like in appearance, similar to Twilight Town in KH. They were very small for the altitude I was cruising in, and distance between the towns was off too. They were far apart, with no roads connecting them. I got bored of flying, so I was going to try free-running. I imagined a nearby city, but it was also oddly sized. (I didn't know that flying lower could make it much bigger, which I found out later) I just passed over the misshapen city with disappointment.

      I was dropping altitude fast, and decided to land on a small hill. As I moved toward the hill, it SUPER-SIZED into a golf course. I landed at the end of the golf course. I thought 'Oh crap, I can't get seen, I have wings!' Sure enough, two golfers were on the course. I thought, 'Well, at least there isn't a meeting or something here.' Of course, a mayor-looking guy brought a huge audience near where I was standing. And they saw my wings. The crowd has gone into a frenzy. I lost my focus and awareness and the dream started to fade. The mayor yelled, "Get security!" I promptly responded "Brass fist!" and punched him out of the way with my metal fist. As I ran, I kept on switching to the A's point-of-view, to observe L's progress. Finally, as I climbed over a hedge, it switched to A's point of view again, and as I read one last letter, and the dream faded out completely.


      I woke up. I went to the bathroom, put away some clothes, and tried to do WBTB. And I failed.

      Notes:
      Vividness: 8/10 (Went as low as 1/10 in the beginning and the end)
      Lucidity Peak: 6/10 (I could fly and summoned a brass fist.)

    9. Hot air balloon and an herbal blend

      by , 09-17-2010 at 11:53 PM
      Length: Anywhere between 10 min and an hour. Idk
      Non-dream Dream


      I go over to Laurens (I think) campsite. I saw lots of cool people, as soon as I got there I got smoked down (marijuana) by three ppl for about 3 minutes, and then I got into this hot air balloon. It was old fashioned, it had a wicker basket, and a giant balloon that was connected to the four corners by rope/string. 3 other guys were already in it, me and the guy at the other end kept pulling our strings to tip it, at first it seemed connected to the ground, and it was like a giant swing almost, then, we got outside, and it seemed that every pull on the string caused the hot air to rise up, and bring us up (abruptly) so we had to time our pulls correctly in order to go straight up. We went over to the left a bit, I memory lapsed, and was on the ground beside the balloon.

      I was behind laurens house (a house and a campsite? Just realized this is nonsensical). The guy I was tipping the balloon with I remembered, and felt I had a connection to him. I had to go see him. Apparently he was at the top room (campsite?) and so I climbed over a porch, and into a few old 2x4s which didn't seem sturdy, one was going to break, I knew it. I was careful, and one of the two below my foot broke, and I climbed up a 2x4 pole-thing. I saw the guy, (I recall him looking like jack, but calling him dean)My dad was by me, I asked if he gave his approval, and he said yes, but he was too reckless, so I couldn't work with him (on the hot air balloon). I thought that's what I was asking, but I guess not. I walked over and told him what my dad said, and he said "Well, you wanna toke?"

      I replied "Actually yeah, that's a good idea." (I had a reason why it was a good idea, not just because I wanted to.) He brought me to the basement, and there were 4 people down there surrounding a table, me, lauren, dean, jack, and some other guy. Lauren asked if I had ever heard of "Rez", and I said I haven't. She said it was a new herbal smoking blend, I tried it, got pretty high. The guy I didn't know packed a bowl of bud. We were still passing around the Rez, and I had taken two hits, he then passed the bowl, After two rotations of that (and 1 rotation of rez) the bowl was emptied right after I took a hit. I was pretty high. He gave me the bag and I gave him the bowl. He asked why I had the bag, I just figured he was high as shit, I told him I'll pack, I grabbed it and I could feel the dream destabilize as I put them down on the table.


      This was one of my repeated campsite dreams. It seems it's my 3rd. Definitely making a note to RC, every time I'm with Lauren or Dean, or if I'm at a campsite.

    10. Wave 49: Just to check...

      by , 09-17-2010 at 11:24 PM (The Meerkat's Lair)
      Im scared. I failed an RC this morning. This leads me to believe that my RCs werent good enough. Like, I dont do them "properly". This stops now. A failed LD is what it took me, but im done now. BY THE WAY, karma owes me a lucid. I talked to someone about dreams yesterday, and so I think I deserve it. And I do.

      Dream 1: Criminals are lurking in, well, im not sure. Somewhere. They are probably killers, since I watched the Grey's Anatomy killer episode right before. Screamers are also included (in perhaps another dream?), however no scream. I remember the car passing by, but I would not see it. Then, looking down in the comment box, I saw a note talking about how he saw: A flash of light... Weird. Moving on.



      Dream 2: Now it is 6 so its ok I forgot most of my dreams. Friday I usually dont write since my mom is home and wakes me up later so I dont have time. But this one is very clear, though there is a big chunk missing right here--->
      Walking next to my dad...ah wait I got something. Sitting on the couch, thinking about the wonders of Lucid dreaming. Ahhh, nice. I got really close. Walking next to my dad. It is very rainy outside. We are on a sidewalk close to our home. I look around and see a restaurant called "Chats et vin" (cats and wine) with Rachid Badouri on it. I remember hearing Rachid saying theyre not actually eating cats. Then while walking I see Vincent and a random DC walking on the street next to us, then cutting in front of us. I think about how it would be nice to just walk around with friends sometimes. Then, I think of Rcing, and I do. But while im doing it, I KNOW im NOT dreaming. Im not sure wether I breathed through and not noticed or intentionnaly blocked it. But im pretty sure I didnt get lucid, which sucks. My only consolation is just when I woke up, my mom came in to wake me up anyway. So I would have been lucid for like 10 seconds. But still...

    11. Not too odd

      by , 09-17-2010 at 11:16 PM
      I had a dream that me, my dog, my girlfriend, my brother and my wife all wanted to go to a small college town for an a sandwich. Me and my dog got into a red convertible and started driving to the town. Shortly in to the drive my girlfriend appeared in the car. Within a matter of seconds we were at the house of some of my friends who were recently married. Only my brother and his wife were the ones who lived in the house. This is when I realized that I was dreaming, but I could not control anything. I simply watched the dream from a third person point of view. The dream then consisted of getting what looked like a turkey sandwich but turned in to an ice cream sunday. Me and my dog then ran out on the bill and got in to a car chase. The next thing I know I am in a pin stripe suit and in a shoot out. I never saw who I was shooting at, or who was shooting at me. Then I woke up

    12. Grey walls and mazes

      by , 09-17-2010 at 10:35 PM
      I am walking around a huge building that is supposed to be a campus of some sort. Very spacious, made of light gray concrete and open to the sky. I spot a friend I haven't seen in a while. When she sees me her face lights up and she jumps for joy. I walk over to her and say hi. She gives me this rediculous smile, her face is flushed and she seems unable to speak, overwhelmed with excitement. She makes this squeeking noise, I ask "huh?". She replies by jumping and making another squeek noise. I am amazed by how strangely she is acting, and it is at this moment that I realize I must be dreaming.

      Right before going to sleep I had read the thread about not doing anything, so I tried it just to see what would happen. While ignoring everything that was going on around me, the scenery began to fade. I stood in a dense gray murkiness. This was pretty boring, and I began to lose some of my lucid focus. Eventually a thought came to me from nowhere, "lay down". I felt the familiar paralysis of SP wash over me, and the greyness was replaced with my room. I felt like I was laying in bed, though my point of view was slightly above where I percieved my body to be. I rose out of my body because I felt trapped, and began to float towards the window. Once outside I pushed off the windowsill and flew over the wall separating my backyard from the one behind it. The backyard behind mine was very small and housed a large black dog. I realised that "flying" was dependent on force, I had to push off of something in order to gain enough force to fly through the air. The dog jumped up and was only a few inches short of catching me, as I was decelerating, having only realised how the gravity worked after passing the first wall without using it. After passing this yard, there is yet another backyard. Eventually the place turns out to be a maze. The rest of the dream is a blur of mazes made of high gray walls, glimpses of strangely dressed people and something about a war that was somehow linked to a large field of dry grass within one of the larger parts of the maze. I lost lucidity somewhere during all of this.

    13. Caught an INRALD/Flying

      Additional

      Asleep by about 2am...

      Caught an INRALD, somehow - Lucid - 1/5
      I remember tossing and turning in bed, and randomly wondered about whether I was in an INRALD. Not too sure what set me off on that. I just remember thinking, "I could be dreaming this, right now."

      I vaguely recall getting out of bed. I can't remember if this was a dream, or RL. Some unconsciousness happened.

      Flying - Lucid - 1/5
      I remember flying in another short, chaotic dream, which made me lucid. Walms was involved again, somehow. Memory is really blurry.

      WBTB at 5:45am. Unintentional. Cold meds wore off. Back to bed by 6:20 (couch actually. Jack's movement was making me nauseous).

      Nothing to recall! My night feels like it was backwards. I recalled dreams in the first 3 hours of sleep, and nothing in the last 4 hours... Not even an INRALD to catch. I was void zoning for 4 hours.

      Feels like I haven't slept a wink
    14. 0/3 Thu, Both Sides of the Law

      by , 09-17-2010 at 08:41 PM (One Must Imagine Sisyphus Happy)
      Good sleep habits lead to good recall. Zeo shows just three really long sleep cycles and I recalled a dream from all three. This is the first time I've recalled a dream from the first cycle. My pen is running out of ink.

      I was really confident I'd have a lucid and I had a few tasks lined up to do. Oh well. Tomorrow will be even better.

      0445: Sleep

      0635: C. I sense that I'm at work but the building is more like an apartment. It's dark outside, maybe raining. I am sorting laundry in a bedroom. I came to the office to work on the weekend? I was hoping to be alone. I have a bottle of Jack Daniels. Hugh is there. Lucas also works at this place. I am actually an undercover cop and Lucas is a criminal. We are both using aliases. I tell this to Hugh. He's getting ready to leave to drive home. I ask to wait so we can leave together but he leaves without me. Then Dave pops in (with Laura maybe?) He is going to a dinner party or something. I also tell him about being an undercover cop. I show him two photos are me and two of Lucas and tell him the real names. Lucas looks like Wolverine in his photos. Another couple enters the office. I vaguely recognize them but don't remember their names. Dave blurts out "Hey, Michael is really Lieutenant...!" but I forget the name I used. The couple doesn't really hear this from across the office. I shush Dave and he stays quite.

      0655: Back to sleep after WBTB

      0916: A. This dream was quite vivid and I felt I had an above-average degree of reasoning capability (although what I do in the dream is pretty stupid). Zeo reports that this dream happened during a epic 75 minute long REM cycle. But what I recall seemed about 15-20 minutes. I'm in a house in a nice suburban neighbor, but it's unfamiliar. I'm in a bedroom on the second floor. It's night outside. I'm talking to a girl who is leaving for a house party in the neighborhood. She suggests it's going to be really wild. She leaves. I look out the window and see two plastic baggies on the sidewalk near the lawn. I go outside and pick one up. Inside there is pot wrapped and labeled in plastic wrap and in vials. There's also rolling paper and a condom. I sense that these are for the party. Someone is spreading them around the neighborhood for people to bring to the party. I take them back up to my room and look at the them, reading the labels of the strange ingredients. I hide them under my bed, go outside to get the other bag, and bring that one up too.

      I open a laptop and find a live streaming video of the party. I join a live lecture. A guy is going to explain how to use the things in the bag. I feel nervous so I take the stuff down to my car which is parked at the curb across the street. I hide the bags under the passenger seat and lay down in the back seat. I see police cars rolling through the neighborhood. I pretend to be asleep but I know I'm going to get busted. A cop opens the front passenger door and takes the stuff from under the seat. Then they open the back door and I fall out. They charge me with... burglary? It seems the pot was bought with stolen money so having the pot makes me an accomplice to the burglary. I ask, "Isn't that 'accessory to buglary'?" The cops laugh and say they've never heard of that. I argue, "What if you're the guy driving the car from a bank robbery?" Then they say, oh, that's a good point.
      (IWL, I don't think any of that law or logic makes sense). I am walking with the cops down the street and they are friendly. It's starting to get light as morning comes. They are talking about gambling.

      1135: D. I think my recall was good but I was disturbed by my alarm and the dream faded very fast. I tried for several minutes to remember because it felt so close on the tip of my memory. All that was left was a fragment. Something about cooking food and wrapping it in bags.

    15. Murder & Angels.

      by , 09-17-2010 at 08:31 PM
      I was at my "room" (completely different than my actual room). It had an eerie feeling, my sheets were scarlet red, like I'd like my room to be. But the light of the dream was like greenish-yellowish, quite creepy. My dad came in to tell me that all my family was arriving. My uncle came in and told me he had some cards with our names and their meanings. I picked two and the first one said something like the angels cry, their crystals break and the second one that I was in deep sorrow. I then walked out of my house by my best friend, he told me I had to see this. It was too small kids, one girl, one boy fighting each other. I separated them and took the little girl by the hand. We walked and the little boy followed us, but not trying to fight her anymore. Some women that walked with us told him to stay far, but I told them to let him stay, that he needed help as well. When we were walking back I told them I had to go to work just a few minutes, and the place where I was going said something like Police & Mysteries Department, meaning I was a detective and I investigated murders. I came in with the other detectives, and they told me it was all okay. But one guy started to walk in some tiles, and he removed them, we saw a children's carpet. He was removing tiles and stopped, walked over other tiles. He said he knew what was going on, there was a body there. This other agent had killed another agent. When that agent, the murderer came in, we confronted her and she confessed. The tiles went up and we saw the body, it was still fresh. Then the agent took a knife and killed the others. It was like I wasn't there anymore, just an expectator. I went back to my house, and I woke up. Strange enough, this didn't feel like a nightmare at all.

      Feelings: creepiness, wonder, curiosity, fear (not intense though), the desire to do something, to do justice.
