    1. Fyling adventures..

      by , 08-28-2010 at 08:17 PM
      I had some sort of game that you played on what I assume is the wii, You have a little target like thing and you lean in different directions to move it, in this case it was basically an interactive movie where your choices affected the movie, You watched a scene and then you interacted.. One level I remember took place in a volcano/lava like place.. I remember flying using hover boots and going across lava.. You couldn't land on the ice or it would melt..

      I was in our neighbors yard and I looked into what I assume was the "Septic Tank" I saw a 5, 6 and 10 dollar bill and Hudson's aquatic center pass and mom's old wallet.

      I read how the first 6 dollar bill was created by Satan?..

    2. My last human life

      by , 08-28-2010 at 08:01 PM (The Nomad Chronicles)
      I am sitting before my mirror in my meditation room. I ask Xaphor to appear. He does, and asks me if I really want to see into my last past life?

      I say yes.

      Things get very... confusing. Apparently, I am seeing into more than one at a time. I focus on one....

      ***

      I am sexy young Black woman in San Francisco in the 60's. I am doing my hair in the mirror, getting ready to go to a show. I meet Angel there for the first time. She's a skinny White girl with ash blond hair, freckles, and grey-green eyes.

      I playfully flirt with her. "Hey, what's up white sugar?"

      She giggles. She has a boyfriend, but I really like her. We end up hanging out that night, and she gets drunk, so I take her to my little studio, and take care of her.

      She wakes up to me cooking eggs and bacon. She stretches and yawns.

      HOLY SHIT, MY HEAD HURTS. Where... am I?

      Good morning, Sweetcream, I laugh.

      Oh, shit, did we have sex? she asks.

      I am a little taken aback. I pause for a second. "No!" I feel my face heat up. I am glad my dark skin hides my blushing.

      Oh. Okay. Well, you know, I am not a lesbo... but, oo, what are you cooking? I am thirsty. I have to pee... oh, my head...

      I pour her a glass of water, and bring it to her. I help her sit up and take a sip. She vomits the water on me. OH SHIT SORRY.

      It's just water.

      Oh, I have to pee!

      She gets up, and goes for a pee. Oh, honey, I forgot you name! she calls from the toilet.

      Esmerelda, but, just call me Ez.

      Oh... I feel like shit.

      Just take it easy, there... Cynthia.

      Did I tell you that's my name? My friends call me Cyn.

      Nice. So, your breakfast is ready.

      I don't know if I can eat it! heheh

      Take your time.

      She joins me at the table, and we sit and talk as she slowly sips the water.

      ***

      A strange creature bursts through the door. It has two large bulbous eyes, sharp teeth, and many tentacles. YOU STOLE MY GIRLFRIEND! It screams at me. Suddenly the appearance of everything changes, but the energy is the same.

      We are in some strange space station, but Angel and I both have katanas. WTF. I don't know what the hell is going on, but I am going to kill this fucker!

      We slice and dice the bastard up.

      missing time

      Angel and I awake in bed together. We caress each other and smile. Her boyfriend bursts through the door with two knives. With a woman? YOU FUCKING CUNT! I morph into a jaguar, and pounce on him. He stabs me in the chest, and I just grin. I rip his throat out.

      OH MY GOD, IS HE DEAD?

      No, it's a dream, honey.

      missing time

      Angel and I are in Golden Gate park. We are smoking weed, and talking about the nature of the universe. A big white dog runs up to me. Uh... Raven? Raven jumps on me and licks my face. A tall White hippie boy with a French accent comes up to me. I guess she likes you! She's my friend's dog. He's a local, you know.

      WTF, it's ... MoSh? Angel sees me checking him out, and pretends to not be jealous. Asuka runs up and hugs him. Angel checks her out, and I pretend to not be jealous.

      We end up all being friends and hanging out. We party and smoke a lot of weed together. We talk about how we love peace and love, and we are serious. We are not some bandwagonners.

      Due to jealousy, and not having any clear relationship boundaries, an undercurrent of resentment builds, and Asuka and Mosh part ways with Angel and I eventually. I miss them, and feel bad about it. I try to contact them, but I can never find them again. I have a picture of the four of us with Raven as beautiful big white dog at the beach. I keep it in my wallet forever.

      My ex-boyfriend keeps chasing me. I don't know what to do. He is so creepy. He runs up behind me, hits me, then runs away. He does this over and over again at random times, usually when I am alone in the dark. He knocks me out twice. I am afraid he is going to kill me. He is always following me. I can't take it anymore. I take a bunch of pills, and alcohol, and jump off of a sea cliff at night. Angel sees me, and jumps in the water after me.

      She is able to help me get to dry land. I vomit on the beach.

      YOU STUPID BITCH! I LOVE YOU! she screams at me. She pours me into her car, and gives me a towel from the backseat. She is crying as she drives me to her little apartment.

      I DON'T CARE IF WE ARE LESBIANS. I don't care if we can't get married, I don't care if we can't have kids.... I LOVE YOU, and I AM GOING TO KILL YOUR EX-BOYFRIEND FOR THIS.

      No... you'll go to prison... stop yelling...

      I'm sorry, Ez. I just really love you.

      Pull over.

      I puke up a lot of the alcohol and pills.

      Well, that's good... we need to get you some water.

      She nurses me back to health. She and I take up some kung fu classes. She tells me just because we're peace lovers doesn't mean we can't defend ourselves. We decide to bait my ex. I become extremely alert, almost obsessed, waiting for the next attack. I walk alone. I know he's watching me. I turn as I hear him run at me. I crouch, and flip him over my shoulder. He lands on his back, with a loud exhale. Good, he got the wind knocked out of him. I stomp on his stomach so he can't breathe.

      TAKE THAT, FUCKER.

      Angel runs out to help, but I am sitting in his chest, pummeling his face. I feel his face bones break beneath my fists. I am crying tears of rage.

      Angel tries to pull me off, but it's impossible. EZ EZ! You are going to kill him!

      I let her pull me off. I spit in his face. I lean against a wall, breathing hard. Angel slowly walks up to him. You think it's cool to hit girls, you piece of shit? She kicks him in the ribs. I hear them crack loudly as they break. She walks away then turns back. She rips off his shirt, then takes lipstick out of her purse and writes on his chest. "I GOT MY ASS KICKED BY A COUPLE OF CHICKS."

      We laugh, and walk away.

      ***

      We are together for a couple years, and we play with Raven in Golden Gate park all the time when her owner brings her there. We eventually break up, but remain friends. Every once in awhile, we meet up and have hot sex under the full moon. She calls me her African Queen.
      We promise we are going to meet again next life time.

    3. 28 August - 9 dreams

      by , 08-28-2010 at 07:54 PM (Lucid-schizo-dreamer)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Maybe I am pushing it too far. Just this night I woke up around 10 times, with only 1h or 1:30 of interval in between. In some of these moments I didn’t write down any dream, although I could remember I just had one. I actually can’t remember of one single moment I wasn’t dreaming. Every time I woke up I recalled a dream and as soon as I closed my eyes I resumed the dreaming, sometimes at the exact same point where I had left. Maybe I shouldn’t try so hard to recall dreams, because my mind is getting a little obsessed about it 


      23:20 GMT - Sleep

      Dream within a dream
      Not sure what was the storyline, but have the feeling it was a dream within a dream or a dream about a dream.


      1:00 GMT

      A girl uses my dreams to enter some guy’s dreams
      I am inside the mind of this guy, in his own living room projection, seeing his objects and absorbing his life stories through what I find. I see his picture of him on a shelf and I pick up from the table some notes written by him. He left something written about these dreams he’s been having about this mysterious girl, how strange the dreams are and how he thinks she is real. He calls her Lilith and all that he describes in his notes remind me of a few of my own dreams. I have this impression that I have some connection to this girl – I have this idea that she is like a ghost in the machine. I’m not actually her, but she uses my dreams to enter his dreams. And he is so obsessed about her.
      I then can actually sense her presence in the room, just like a ghost. Through the window I see a thick darkness outside. It’s a bit creepy and I shut the blinds to feel less goosebumps.


      Mystical sunset
      I am in my kitchen but outside, instead of other buildings, I see through the window-door the most beautiful and remarkable sunset ever over a sea harbour. There’s a few clouds in the sky, which is radiant in orange and purple shades. I go outside to really absorb this mesmerizing beauty. At this point my mother and my boyfriend appear by my side, also amazed at this incredible scenario. I have this distinct feeling that we are in some special place in-between dreams and sharing it. But before I make a remark about this to them, I suddenly wake up. My boyfriend is deeply asleep by my side and I don’t have the courage to wake him up and ask.

      2:18 GMT

      Police chasing and using a long-time-no-see friend at a party as cover
      I am on a train and for some reason there’s policemen on my pursuit. I get out at next stop and mingle with the crowd, but they are still after me. I meet with these two people, a girl and a boy, in the back of some building and we are discussing something when a police car stops near us and we try to run in the opposite direction just to find more police on that side to. They go back and hide in the building and I use the policemen momentary confusion to run some other direction. I pass a construction site and go through it. But I’m a beautiful woman and my passage there does not go unnoticed. The men working there start calling me so I need to get out of there as soon as possible or I’ll be found.
      I cross a street, there’s a big lawn and a beautiful tall building at the end of it. I see people all dressed up and spot an old friend of mine there (J.F.). He always had a crush on me and I’m sure he would like to see me again. I am also more or less dressed up, despite the chase and all and I enter this place. We have to pay ticket, luckily not expensive, but I don’t even know what party there is. I go downstairs and it looks like a disco or bar in a basement. I sit close to him, but pretending I didn’t see him. I do something to get his attention and then he sees me and gets frozen, staring at me, unbelieving I’m there. Then I pretend I’m also surprised and we engage in conversation. I feel safe now that I have a good cover. I stick with him.



      3:45 GMT

      Continuation of the party
      After going back to sleep I am again in that basement party and I realise it is a party organized by a student’s association. Looking for a calmer place, I enter this back room where the organizers are doing their work, carrying stuff, ensuring the availability of food and drinks, etc. There’s lots of sound material (woofers, mixing tables, etc). At the end of the party, some guy with long hair is looking for something and he goes nuts when he sees it disappeared. Apparently something pretty expensive. Then a girl from the organization is freaking out because the student’s association will have to pay it if it’s not found. [I had more notes on this dream, but wrote it over something else and it’s illegible.]

      4:56 GMT

      Naked seduction attempt
      I am a lady in her 50’s. I am a business woman, with a busy life, single. On that exact moment I am at this place (a house? mine?) organizing something, receiving guests. There are other people around, but then it’s all over and I’m looking in all rooms if anybody was left behind and closing the doors when I find nobody. Then a guy, also in his 50’s, totally naked, jumps out of one room and is bothering me, wanting to kiss me and so on. First I feel scared, then I recognize the guy and feel simply annoyed and disturbed. Try to call him to reason, try to get him to dress something but he just says he wants to kiss me and to make love to me. I am losing my patience and then he pushes me to a bed and is on top of me and I feel incredibly disgusted to have this naked guy on me and feeling his body parts on me. Brrr... I start battling hard but then he backs up a bit. Then I realise he is not trying to rape me. We are sort of friends and he is really attracted to me and since I am cold as stone he thought he’d have to be really straight to the point to try to arouse me. I think he managed to do it just a very little bit, like a small flicker of arousal in my mind, but in general he failed and I simply felt disgust.


      6:00 GMT

      Portuguese tourists abroad
      I am with my dad coming out of a subway station in a foreign country and outside we see this building right in front, with a glass façade and several names of companies and foundations on it. Me and my father are heading to this particular foundation but before we cross the street, two ladies approach us, one blond older and one brunette, in her 40’s. They ask us in French where is such and such street. We explain we just arrived and have no clue. They say they were looking for a certain foundation, not the same as the one we’re looking and that they thought was on this building but inside the doorman indicated some other building. We said again we would like to help but we have no clue. My father is trying to be nice to the ladies, but his French is quite sucky. He speaks Portuguese with me to ask me something or share some idea with me, when the ladies start laughing! They are also Portuguese and there we were speaking French to each other. So communication got a lot easier and my father who likes to impress the ladies was all of a sudden all kind to them. We say again we don’t know the place so we can’t help, but then they say “Yeah, but you have a map and we don’t!” Oh, so that’s what they are after! Since we won’t give them our map, because we also need it, we decide to go along with them and then come back. This way we can also meet them. Another friend of them appears from the other side of the street and then we go with them to a bus station, because the place is still far away. First I feel totally upset and try to convince my father to draw a scheme and just send them away. But we end up making this tour with them and it ends up being fun.

      7:30 GMT

      Alternative centre and wasps in a pool
      Me and my boyfriend are visiting this town - I think it reminds me Berlin - when we find this strange alternative community centre. I go inside this complex and the first thing I see is this second-hand shop, really busy. My boyfriend was curious if that business was making any money, because he finds the clothes a bit too much weird and they say he’d be surprised. Then we see this room full of couples with little babies, doing some kind of yoga for babies. As we go deeper into this complex, we find a swimming pool. They explain is for the residents of this community and associates but that we could also go use it if we wanted to. My boyfriend jumped right in but I had other plans in my mind.
      I’m planning to leave but there’s a guy on a ladder, close to the roof, screaming that he just found a wasp’s nest and that they are pissed. He advises everybody out, but there’s no time. A swarm of angry wasps come in my direction and I just have time to dive in the water, clothes and all. Then we have to keep under water, because as soon as we come to the surface they are there ready to attack. I swim for some time, back and forth, coming for a quick breath at the surface but the wasps are relentless and the guys outside the pool are not solving this problem any time soon.
      I have taken vows of compassion towards all sentient beings and besides that, I am just unable to kill any animal, including wasps. But I decide I have to kill them, at least some of them, or people will start drown on the pool or getting seriously stung. I got out of the pool, grabbed something and started killing a few, the others just backed of. I felt awful for each one I killed – the vision of their bodies being crushed was incredibly detailed - but I also thought it was a lesser harm to protect other sentient beings, so I had to do it.


      Dream architects
      I then leave the pool and a girl offers me to go to her room in the community residential area, to change clothes. While I’m there, finished changing my clothes, I see a doll she has and I pick it up. The doll had really beautiful big blue eyes and dark hair. I find it a bit misplaced as the rest of her room is totally grown-up, no childish things, but at the same time I relate to it, because I also have this Barbie dolls in my room, for no apparent reason, just as a connection to the memories of the past. I guess the doll has some special meaning to her.
      Then a strange guy enters the room, asks me not to say a word and he transforms the architecture of the room – I mean, like changing the dream architecture. Where there was a normal window looking over a backyard, he made appear a stone-brick wall with columns over a huge patio like one of an ancient palace. When she arrived she was so pissed off. She screamed to the guy, saying it was not funny, asking me why I let him do it. I decided to leave them discussing it and sneaked out,
      amazed at the fact that they were dream-architects.

    4. My 5th Lucid Dream

      by , 08-28-2010 at 07:43 PM (Sydney's Nightly Adventures)
      Hey all. I can't exactly name this dream, because it involved so much. Here's some details:
      For one, I kept dipping in and out of the dream. Also, I might have been LDEILDing on accident. The transition from one dream to another was so short it might have been one dream. FOR THE BILLIONTH TIME, it was fuzzy. I did, however, make one decision.
      Here it is.

      I started the dream at a party. It was at a house I've never been to before. The place seemed sort of familiar, though. I walked around the kitchen and examined the perimeter. Then I went back into a dimly lit room. There were a few people in there talking and slow dancing. I saw a bed in the back of the room and I walked over toward it. Then I became insanely tired, and fell asleep on the bed.

      I woke up and noticed that I didn't hear any music, or people talking. I walked out of the room to investigate. With the living room lamp on I noticed that I was in my mom's house. I "assumed" that my mom carried me to her bed while I was still asleep. So I went back into her bedroom and fell asleep again.

      This time I woke up in an outside loft, and now I KNEW something was going on. I wondered if I could've been dreaming, so I did a reality check. And I was lucid. I looked around and saw my brother standing on a bridge not too far off, so I walked over there. Then out of nowhere, some guy comes running out with a fishing pole stuck through his body down the middle (wth?). He looked like a mad man on a rampage or something, l0l. He looked like a murderer, and I think he wanted to kill us. Since it was my dream, I had the sudden urge that I wanted to kill somebody. People started gathering around him now, wondering why there was a fishing pole stuck in him.

      I ran up to him, braced myself, closed my eyes, and jumped on him. Since I thought I could do anything in my dream, I reached for the fishing pole and gave a long hard jerk, which gave him serious pain. Groaning, he held a dagger up to my face. I grabbed it to show him who's boss. Almost like in slow motion, I "dropped" the dagger with the tip down, and it planted right into the murderer's chest. He fell over, dead. Then the dream faded to black.

      I must have accidentally done an LDEILD here, but I'm not so sure. The dream opened up, and I was still lucid.
      I was sitting at a computer. It looked like a game screen. It was weird, because there was a menu of games on the screen. One which was lucid dreaming (Once you clicked on it, you had to visualize your scenery and then you would have to step into the computer and be warped to where you visualized). I tried clicking on it but it wouldn't work; instead it brought me to another game that almost looked like an online game. (like FreeRealms) My brother was in the other room on his PS3, playing some racing game. So I guess that's why I couldn't access the lucid dreaming "game". I closed my eyes, and tried to imagine my neighborhood, but it just wouldn't work.

      I was warped to... what seemed to be a dentist's office. I was sitting in one of the comfy chairs. I picked up a dictionary, and opened it up to the last page, which was the M's. In the next room, I heard Jenette McCurdy say, "Mom, I'm scared." l0l. It was so weird. (Which made me think of the dentist episode of iCarly)

      Staring at the dictionary page, I tried to imagine the neighborhood once more, but to no avail.
      I think I woke up after this.
    5. August 28th, 2010

      by , 08-28-2010 at 07:09 PM
      The dream started at some college, it was strange though in that it seemed more like I was going into basic training for the military at first. It kind of switched to just a 'normal' college afterward though. I walked to the dorms with the group I was assigned to, they invited me to a party, I declined as I had arrived two weeks late and needed to catch up. After what I knew was a few hours, though it felt like only a minute or so, of looking over notes and such I decided to take a break. I went around to explore the campus, a strangely beautiful complex of buildings, some illogically built and connected. Many of the buildings had large, open balconies with occasional benches and tables. Other students walked by occasionally, most often in groups of 2-4 only two large groups went by that seemed like classes going somewhere. I opened a heavy metal door going leading to a poorly lighted tunnel, I felt rather on edge in here though the two groups of people did not seem concerned at all that there were giant bug-like things crawling around. I felt a bit more at ease when I noticed these creatures did not actually seem to be of any threat and mostly ignored us. I came to another heavy door and found myself on one of the open balconies about 3 stories up, very illogical transfer due to the lack of any incline or stairs. A group of three students were talking quietly to amongst themselves, it had become rather dark and the campus was lit only by a series of small lights along railings and walkways, and the meager amount of sunlight left over the horizon. I walked towards a bridge connecting to another balcony, it spanned about twenty meters. Sadly about halfway there I was forced to stop by a 4 meter gap. I turned back and headed to the large door again, this time the tunnel was deserted save for the bugs. They did not seem quite as neutral this time as they screeched and approached threateningly. Somehow this made me realize I was dreaming. I stepped backwards through the door and closed it to concentrate. I closed my eyes and envisioned a large well lit room with all my friends and family at a party. I turned around while opening my eyes and watched the environment melt away and form into a large warehouse with a good portion of my friends and immediate family. Tables were laid out with food and drinks and music was playing as people talked and laughed. I frowned at the lack of good lighting and made a motion like a conductor indicating a crescendo and the lights became brighter. I felt my vision blurring a bit and stabilized by imagining myself anchored to the ground and looking at my hand s saying "I am in a clear, stable dream." My vision cleared after that and I felt more secure in the dream. I summoned a pen and paper and wrote down my goals, somehow my mind could not remember them by my hands did. I set them on a table and tried flying, I only got about five meters off the ground before falling back down. I walked around and talked to some of the people though what was said is gone now. I felt myself waking up at this point and re stabilized then quickly approached a group of my family members and two of my friends, they looked at me expectantly and I said

      "I ask that next time I dream, you tell me I am dreaming, if I do not believe it tell me to do a reality check. Continue to bother me until I realize I am dreaming." They all agreed and I let myself wake up so I could remember the dream.


      Notes: I'm not quite sure what influenced this dream, possibly thoughts of returning to college this winter. As for letting myself wake up, I already pushed it a bit with my poor dream recall. I am not checking off have a conversation with a DC version of my friends as I do not remember what was said. However I can check off asking DCs to help me become lucid which is a great thing for me.

    6. Solar Adoration at Sunrise

      by , 08-28-2010 at 06:29 PM
      This morning I dreamed I saw the Sun rising through the woods that are north of my house. I believe I had actually woken up before this dream and saw it was dawn through the glass door. In my dream I was looking through this door and I could see the Sun through the woods, as if they were transparent, as it rose above the horizon. The disk of the Sun was bright crimson and it was surrounded by perfect blackness. As it rose I gave my the solar adoration for sunrise:

      Hail unto thee who art Kephre in thy rising,
      And unto thee who art Brahma in thy birth
      And even unto thee who are Zeus in thy ambition.
      Hail unto thee oh Sun in this thy rising.

      By the time I had finished the Sun was completely above the horizon.


      Yesterday at sunset I meditated on the visualization of a red setting Sun, as described in the Contemplation Sutra. This might well have been an inspiration for the dream.

    7. August 26th Dream #1

      by , 08-28-2010 at 05:40 PM
      I dreamed I could turn into a stone ghost kind of thing. So I sneaked into a castle to save a princess. I had two people traveling with me. A boy and a girl. The girl was a kung-fu master and the guy was a grapple hook user. So we rescued the princess and she turned evil. The girl I was travelling with trained her soldiers advanced martial arts. All of a sudden the castle sunk into a sinkhole, and water poured into the castle. Then I awoke.

    8. Much better recall

      by , 08-28-2010 at 05:15 PM
      Throughout the night I woke up after every dream, and could remember about 1minute worth of material.
      Unfortunately I didn't put enough effort into remembering it all, so I can only remember the very last one.

      1. I'm playing starcraft 2. There's one other guy on my team, and it's about the end of the game; we're going around with our units killing every little base the enemy has. The last one is underneath flowing water, and I attack it from the back, coming around and then hitting it hard. I completely stop paying attention to the game and end up in a gigantic bathroom, with very ornate decorations and many baths. The one I'm resembles the area the base was built on, slanted and with flowing water that goes off an edge. I talk to one of my friends about the victory, and then see Twigg and ask him if he got my friend request. He explains that he hasn't had internet access since December. I realize that this is BS, because the game hasn't been around before July, and then become conscious, and wake up.

      I slept on the floor last night, which probably helped me remember the times I woke up in the middle of the night. I also got an extra hour of sleep since it's a weekend, and that must have helped as well. My recall is getting better quickly, and I'm about to start adding hypnosis in there to really push it over the edge.

    9. 8-27-10

      by , 08-28-2010 at 05:07 PM (Oneironaut)
      11:00/F/C

      I was driving through the woods in my Grand Prix truck that had seating like a mini-van. I was with Kim and Alex (who I was smoking with before sleep). Eventually while driving I came across this 4-way battle being held between 4 large figures, the one I chose to fight with was a large ice cream cone figure, which lost. The entire battle was being organized by a witch (reading: Dead to the World). After the battle, there was a party being held at my house. I was relaxing on the couch.
      After getting up, I began walking around and eventually walked to a line that was leading into a room. I was standing in the line with 4 other guys. Once I got into the room, I discovered it was very carnival-esque. There were 'tapestries' that you could climb up, and other things that I can't remember. Eventually this carnival turned into a mix between being in Las Vegas and Paris. I saw Notre Dame while in a car.

    10. failed wild and frustruating non-lucid and a fragment

      by , 08-28-2010 at 03:58 PM
      i slept for 5 or 6 hours and didn't remember and dream when i woke up. i attempted to wild but the dogs started whining. then, aftr the dogs were put outside, the cats came meowing at th bedroom door. and they did it 1 at a time so i had to get up 3 seperate times to let them in. lame.

      but my attempt was somewhat successful i think for only being my 3rd try. i started to hear weird noises and then thought i lost it. when i opened my eyes though jeremy was laying next to me but also standing at the foot of the bed. i Tried to look at my hand for a reality check, but everthing started getting fuzzy. so, for some reason i tried to run over To standing jeremy and i woke up

      i was too tired after that tp try again so i just let myself fall asleep.

      The next tim ei woke up i remembeed i deam where i was at this big house with some of my family and some people i didn't know. there were tons of animals and a few of them were mine. there was one dog that was tan and medium sized that was constantty running around The cats were all in a fenced backyard that was on a hill and had some trees. i heard people yelling and went out to see some men trYing to get the tan dog off of a cat and a woman tending to another cat. there were other cats and kittens lying around that apeared to be wounded. they soom seemed ok at closer inpection. i asked the woman if i could help by setting aside the non wounded one and she was mad at me and told me to keep that dog away from the cats. i went down to the fence and saw that it was a big gap where the dogs must have gotten through. for ssome reason i went back up The hill and then i saw the dog with a bunch of others get through the fence and grab some cats. they were playing tug of war with them and i franticaqlly tied to run down the hill, screaming for help. i couldn't move very fast though.

      a fragment i remember- i was at my parents house, collecting arrowheads. i went out to the road and there was a tupperwear container full of rocks and a pile of rocks next to it on the road. i started going through the rocks and found tons of arrowheads. then i looked in the tupperwear and founs a few. my dad came by so i hid in the tupperwear. he got mad that it was open and tried to close it. i think he kneq i was in there. then there was something back at the house with my sister candy and a coffee drink.
    11. WBTB+DEILD=Future.

      by , 08-28-2010 at 03:38 PM (The Mind is Power; My Dream Journal)
      So I decided to go ahead and give the DEILD method a shot. I wasn't sure how I'd go about attempting it because it involves reflexively keeping my eyes shut when I wake up and, to be honest, I've got no practice doing that. So I go to bed at about 12:30 with an alarm set around 4 o clock. I wake up a few minutes before 4 o clock and turn on my iPod to play some Solitaire. I want to get in the habit of working out the logic center of my mind while I'm in bed at night. I think this will help me out a lot. I go back to bed. About an hour later I wake up because I have to use the bathroom and lo and behold I've got quite a long dream ready and recalled:

      Leah and I are driving home from seeing some comedy in theaters with my parents. In the movie I remember it being sorta creepy because the main bad guys were crazy tall and white and really scary looking. During the move in fighting myself to stay awake. I am sitting by Leah. As I watch the movie it sometimes takes on a first person view. The evil looking characters on screen get into a bunch of fights over turf. They remind me of smart zombies. I slowly start to nod off. Towards the end of the movie i go and stand at the front of the theater and watch the last of the movie standing.

      After that we head over to a laser tag and my mom makes my brother and I play a game. The women running the place charges five bucks per person. I overhear my mom and sister buying our tix for us. The clerk suggests me and my brother just share a gun to save money until we decide I'd we like it. My mom gets us each our own. The suits have a mouth guard bracket built onto the front and i put it in my mouth without thinking and immediately regret it. In my mind I'm positive I'll have herpes now or something. I glance over and my brother is sitting slouched against a wall on a black bench. He is spaced out. He looked dejected and bored.

      Then Leah and i are driving home. We are both tired. I'm using the gps to get us home but I want to stop at a hotel to sleep but we can't because of the dog waiting at home to use the bathroom. Leah mentions that my parents are leading us home a different way than normal. I follow the gps.
      Not bad at all for having a few off nights this week. So I go back to bed and I wake up AGAIN. This time I come startling myself awake but the world is in blackness. I can't see anything! You guessed it: I managed to keep my eyes shut. I'm not sure if it was reflex or the fact that I was actively thinking about it before I go to bed. So I'm laying there with my eyes shut. I feel a tiny bit heavy on my back and I feel mostly numb. My toes randomly spasm every once in awhile and my heart starts to race. I know I'm in a good position for the DEILD technique. But of all the things that could happen I start to hear birds singing LOUDLY outside of my window and when that happens I KNOW it's day time and, I'm not sure how, but I KNOW my alarm is about to go off. I hear a faint buzzing sound that is very distinguishable from all of the other noises. Is this part of my HI? I don't know. All I DO know is that I'm suddenly hypersensitive to sounds.

      So I stay laying there for a few more minutes when lo and behold the alarm does go off. I get out of bed and grumble my way to the shower. And then while I'm in the shower I'm hit like an epiphany with recalls of "four" other dreams.

      I'm in some sort of giant church like structure. My friend Phil is there and so is Lawrence, Chris, and Jake K. We are sitting in the big room where I assume the Pastor is going to preach when somebody starts handing out stacks of bacon as a snack. I say 'Hey, why not' and grab a huge stack and absolutely stuff my face with it. I then go ahead and sit down for the sermon. Time passes, I'm sure, because I'm running out of the room and towards the stairs. I jog up these stairs and turn right to where a small bedroom is. And there are all my friends! Skipping out on the sermon to play video games. I'm mad immediately... Not for skipping the sermon... But for not telling me they were so I could too! I remember in my dream, as well, to be kind and polite around Phil. I know I think to myself that he's a good guy.
      For some reason I'm up stairs in some house. I "know" it's my parents house. I walk down the stairs and outside to see some sort of dog out there. My parents had just left to go see a movie. I'm sure of that for some reason as well. So I've been left to take care of the dog. The dogs name is Asimov (Yes, as in Isaac Asimov). For some reason the dog gets hurt or gets killed and my parents return and I tell them what happened. They mention how at the movie they spent the whole time looking for "Asimov" but couldn't find him because he was under a different name. Don't ask me. It doesn't make sense over here, neither.
      And now I'm shopping. I've been sent downtown by my wife to go check out this resale shop. I'm assuming it's some sort of 'Platos Closet' because as I walk up to it, it is in an underground mall, the woman at the door goes: "Are you Randall? Leah shops here all the time." I say yeah I am and that I'm here to look at jeans. She asks if I need any help finding anything and I decline. It's at this point she points out that they are closing in 5 minutes. I let her know that I'll hurry. I hate when customers linger in my store. So I look around at the jeans and there's a woman back there as well waiting to help. I don't see anything I really like and end up hoofing it back towards the front to leave. It's at that moment that, for whatever reason, an explosion occurs and I'm sent flying. I land back on the ground and my leg is very clearly broken. The women are freaking out and blaming eachother but none of them seem hurt.
      And now I'm sitting in another basement. This time in front of a nice bass stack. My brothers friend, Marc, is there. And I'm pretty sure the other guy is Rob. There's a smaller Asian kid that I've never seen but he has black hair combed over and he plays the guitar. I'm obviously in this band. We shoot the breeze for a little bit and plan to practice when the Asian kid says that this is their last show. They just can't do it anymore. He is kind of a dick. So I ask him, gesturing at my leg, 'Is it because I broke this?'. He shakes his head and says that there's no money in it. I tell him: Well, hey. Once you guys hit 18 you'll be able to play shows every couple of days and make plenty of cash. I tell him my band is playing Marys Place (which we are, in real life! I'm plugging my own band in my own dreams) and that we're bringing in about 20% of the door. I envision what the place looks like so he can see it. I show him a bunch of elegant tables set up in front of a nice stage. Everyone is well dressed. This seems to change his thought process because he's suddenly backpedaling and saying things like 'Well, actually we had plans to...' and then that's all I really remember.
    12. What should I know about Lucid Dreaming?

      by , 08-28-2010 at 03:22 PM (Clockworker's Dream Journal)
      The dream started as I entered my school, which was darker than the usual. It all made sense to me, for I quickly found out the reason was many of the light bulbs had burned out. From a previous dream I had, I could watch, while going through the main corridor, videos of my friend practicing radical sports such as bungee jumping. I assumed that was his way of introducing himself to the rest of the school.
      I got in my class, also very ill-lit, and saw him there. I asked him where was he sitting at, so I could get a chair around there, and he answered me, looking a bit careless.

      At a certain point, some girls showed up at our class, as the usually do during their break or before their teachers arrive. Some of them left, and only one, who is older than me, sat down and did not move. Me and my friend, the newcomer, started talking to her.

      I have absolutely no idea why, but he asked her about lucid dreaming.
      I instantly became lucid, and also asked her the same question. She got up, opened a portal (it felt as though we were all lucid. It was a dream within a dream )and jumped into it, coming back a few seconds later. I also tried to do that, and I wrote some words on the ground, succesfully managing to open a portal. I tried to activate it, but it just made a lot of noise and changed colors. I hit it with my hands and turn it off.
      The three of us walk out of the room, get into the principal's and start talking about defusing a bomb, which would wake us all up. My friend leaves me and her alone, saying he would look for the bomb - I think now we were in a simulation of a bomb attack-. As soon as he's out of the room, I hide the real explosive in a desk, and some smoke infests the place, in a way it would make the secret location of the bomb more secure.

      I know we have not got much time, so I write on the table we are sitting at, me and her, ''What do you know about LDing?", and correct it below the first sentence "Lucid dreaming." - I can feel the texture of the table I am writing on. It looks real.- I say I am sorry for the bad handwriting and she tells me hers is even worse. She writes down numbers from 1 to 5, and ask me to lick them.

      I don't have much time left, so I do it, being able to feel everything perfectly. Words start getting visible to me, and I can read only two of what was written next to the 5 numbers. The first one said "1. The ocean is strong and it's a very useful tool on attaining lucidity;" and "2. My heart is broken, and I can't get lucid as I could in the past;" I try to ask her what does it all mean, but the dream starts to fade, when everybody around us stop walking and freeze. I feel it coming apart and wake up licking the air.


      Comment: This was the most epic LD I have ever had, and though I have only had 2 decent ones so far, I must say I think I'm finally starting to make some progress.

    13. Wave 30: It counts!

      by , 08-28-2010 at 02:46 PM (The Meerkat's Lair)
      Splitsecond lucid dreams that start at 8 o clock near the end of the night COUNT! They count! So yeah, another one this morning. Epic? No. My non-LDs were far more. Here they come, in the order I think they happened:

      Another, more and more recurring dream with the girls at the Academy. This time they change counter completely and I hope they wont bother us anymore. But as time passes, I notice they do more and more stuff on our counter, until a lonely dude is the only thing left on theirs.

      An epic quest full of crazy women, cafeteria food and kindergarten classes. This was a very long dream I dont really remember. I do recall going to find a crazy woman in a classroom twice, and thinking about it the second time. HUGE chunk missing here.

      Im playing Combat Arms. My gun is stuck (like in real life) but gets unstuck at times. Those times I kickass and do multi kills like hell. The map is Death Room. I head up the stairs and find a weird orange cartoony character. He tells me he can mimic people and objects. Somehow I am one too, but a little different. We play around trying to shapeshift into various objects, reversing colors and stuff. More specifically a flower pot. I guess I needed to get that out of my system, but im not satisfied unless its lucid

      Im Donkey Kong and me and my buddy Diddy have to climb a huge vine. In Donkey Kong Country, a similar one has to be climbed in the later ruin levels. But were not in the ruins; were in a huge, empty field. And the vine is HIGH. Very HIGH. We both start climbing until Diddy decides hes a wuss and wants me to be in front of him. Son of a bitch. I am also very scared, thinking about the incredible height and the fact that there is a baddie over our heads. In the next scene, I am looking at Diddy climbing while I am hanging out on the ground. He starts swinging furiously until regaining control is impossible. A voice (narrator?) tells him he may want to let go. He does and falls to the ground next to me. I rush to help him.

      Heres the cheap LD: I have a False Awakening where I start to float away but hold on to my bed. Very smart to begin with. My eyes are closed, but as always I feel like if I open them I will open my real eyes, which I really dont want. So im still in my bed and I RC to find im dreaming, though the floating kinda confirmed that. Then, I do one of the dumbest ive ever done in an LD, I lye down. In my bed. What a way to forget your real body. Put yourself in the exact same position and ask yourself if its real. Of course I wake up (geez). But it counts anyway. Then I didnt move but couldnt DEILD

      I am standing on a hill, and teaching Loaf how to summon. He summons DC dinosaurs which look like the one on my didjeridoo. He then summons lightning to destroy one, but it only slows it down. He is annoyed, and I chuckle.
