I've had many lucid dreams as a child, but i didnt think any of them then. I didnt know they can be so cool; and if you learn more about your dreams, you can control them. Finding this all so interesting obviously leads to me making an account and sharing my story.

I usually had the option as a child to save myself from nightmares. If i was having a stressful dream when i was in grade 3 and i couldnt get to the after school bus on time, i would step into my own dream to say, "Calm down, you dont have to run on the spot, just walk slowly, the bus wont leave without you, everything is fine. Wake up now"

Or if i was being bullied in my dream, the same event that may have happened that day, and it turns into a horrible nightmare. I often would step in as my own conscience and tell myself to literally fly away. They cant catch me if im flying above them right?

I would also interrupt my dreams by accident. I would be having a nice, weird dream and something in real life would wake me up a little, or something out of the ordinary would happen to make me say, "Wait, im dreaming" And after i'd be upset because i will now never know how my dream would have ended if i didnt interrupt.

All of this just makes me more eager to start my non-electronic Dream Journal and begin to recognize my dream signs that would in turn allow me to control my own dreams!

I was at the mall with Tigress and Silver, we were there just wandering around and looking at the various shops to see if there was anything interesting to be found. We wandered around the mall for a while, taking a look in various stores to include computer and video game stores, an arts and crafts store, and a book store, and then we were walking past a store with musical instruments. I wanted to go in there to look around, so the three of us went inside.

I wandered around the instruments for a bit, noting some nice instruments, flutes, guitars, violins, and some instruments I didn't even vaguely recognize… I finally found the area where they were selling electronic keyboards, and I started browsing them. They had some very nice ones, and I was wondering if there was any way I could afford one so I could make music for games. My reasoning in the dream was that the keyboard I have is not capable of playing chords, but that is not actually true… it plugs directly into a computer and plays chords just fine as long as I have the memory buffer set properly to balance between speed and quality… but that wasn't what I was thinking in the dream as I browsed the keyboards.

While I was browsing the keyboards, Tigress had gone a short distance away with Silver and they were looking at ocarinas and talking about various things, I couldn't hear much of what they were saying. A sales man came over and asked if he could help me, I said I was looking for an electronic keyboard but I am on a tight budget… was there anything he could recommend? He began giving his sales pitch, saying they had three very economical models, which were very nice considering the price. He said they had the features that are only found on the high end models at other stores… He showed me the models, the cheapest one was $298, the next one up was $315, and the highest of their economical models was $355. I haven't priced electronic keyboards recently, so I wasn't even sure if that was a good value or if he was trying to rip me off… for some reason I felt sure he wasn't trying to scam me.

I asked about memory cards for easy transfer of the songs from the keyboard to my computer. He showed me the memory card slot on the middle model, said all three had it, but the memory card slot was a shape and size I have never seen, apparently they took a proprietary type of card that the company no doubt price gouged on… I said no, I didn't want to deal with odd shaped memory cards. He said that is understandable, which is why he actually recommended the high speed USB cable to connect the keyboard to a computer. He took down a $16 cable that had a USB connection on one end and a coaxial connection on the other end, that didn't look like a high speed connection to me… I told him I'd think about the cable, I wouldn't be in that much of a rush to transfer the data from the keyboard to my computer.

I was looking at the three keyboards again, trying to think how long it would get me to pay it off if I was to charge it to my credit card. While thinking about it I started playing on one of them, I was playing a song that sounded vaguely familiar. I was thinking it was a song I had heard in a dream with MoSh, and MoSh would be glad I could remember it well enough to play it. But I would have to get the keyboard… and there was plenty of room on my credit card… This is not safe thinking for me, as I have been known to get in over my head in credit card debt… I got out of that problem and don't want to go back there. But if I could just pay it off within a couple months… I was running numbers through my mind as to how much I could pay each month… well, I would definitely have to stick with the cheapest model.

I started playing the song on the lowest price model, it sounded just as good as on the other two, until I came to the left end of the keyboard… the few keys at the end of the keyboard looked like they had been chewed on?! Those keys didn't work, and I saw there was a large dog lying not far from the keyboard, I was sure that was the dog that had been chewing on the keys. The salesman came back over and asked if I had made a decision, I said I would have to get the cheapest one, but it had been chewed on… he looked at it and laughed. He said not to worry, I wasn't buying the display model, which they let the dog chew on so she wouldn't chew on random customers. I noticed the dog was now chewing on a violin…

I was debating whether or not to get the keyboard, Tigress was there beside me. She asked me if I was sure I could afford to do that, she said it would be cool to get a new one, but it wouldn't be so cool if it got me in trouble financially. For some reason I couldn't help but notice the fact that when my ex boyfriend, James, had been with me and I had wanted to buy something expensive, he had encouraged me to go ahead and do it, but Tigress was cautioning me to be careful about it. I looked at the partially chewed on keyboard, lost in indecision on what to do about it, and that's what I was still doing when I woke.

Dragon ball and fries (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

A so-so night. I am too focused on the stuff going on in my business.

Second:

I was in a living room, but it was different from waking. I was watching dragon ball, but in a language that I do not speak nor understand. I was able to understand it in the dream, unknow reason. I was happy because my wife was with me.

The scenery was Goku, MajinVegeta and Gohan. They were fighting against a made up foe. Majin Vegeta was about to blow up himself to try to safe the day.







Suddenly, the scenery switched to our waking living room. I was eating fries. I could hear some Kingdom Hearts music. I was listening the Heartless Awakening song. The CD was scratched and the music was distorted. My wife had a toothpaste that needed no water to clean the teeth.

My wife advised me to use it as well. I was still eating and my wife insisted with the toothpaste thing. I got mad at her, throwed a fry and the plate. I grabbed the toothbrush and brushed my teeth. My mouth was filled up in seconds and my wife told me to just swallow it. I felt it was very gross. The toothpaste tasted like strawberries and it was pink, however, it was gross to swallow.

Missed Dream Signs:
- The Dragon Ball scenery was not real.
- Music sounded distorted.

What I would have done if lucid:
- Head for a ToTY.

Burnt Apartment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

A so-so night. I am too focused on the stuff going on in my business.

First:

A small fire happened in my appartment. I could see some carpeting burnt and the floor looked bad. Some maintenance guys entered my apartment and one of them told me, "Why don't you just go for a drive until we fix this?" I felt very lazy because I have been driving for a while. I decided to lay in bed for a short while. My wife was in bed, nude, next to me.

She wanted to have sex, but there were some people in the room and I wanted them gone first. My wife told me there was no issues at all if other people watched. I still rejected.

The scenery changed and I was with another DC. He wanted me to taste something. It looked like a datil peper. I hate datil peppers. The DC told me it tasted like Maple Syrup, so I trust him and tasted it. It tasted indeed like a datil and I spilled it. I got mad at him.

Missed dream signs:
- Different apartment.
- People in my room.
- Someone saying that a datil tastes like Maple Syrup.

I didn't really remember many details of this dream. Also my dog was put down today, so I am expecting dreams of something to do with him because that's all that's occupying my mind at the moment.

Me and 2 girls my age are walking inside a huge indoor city, and although all the ceilings were low like and underground court, I'm pretty sure it was a city. Everything was made out of orangish bricks, giving a familiar magical impression.
We start off in a parking garage. As we go through the city there is a sense of urgency, like we're supposed to go somewhere important, so we sort of speedwalk. At one point I find a skateboard and start riding it, even though I don't know how to. We realize that one of the girls has gone missing, and then my viewpoint switches to hers as she hurries to catch up. We find some sort of magical Halloween themed candy shop, and inspect a large glass cabinet displaying different kinds of candy all with the theme of a skull.
A new dream begins where we are inside a large hotel shaped like The Standard or a tall casino, and all I remember is there being palm trees and rocks outside, which gave me extreme deja-vu, remembering anything dream that I had but can't quite remember

1, My brother is playing a variant of the Plinko game on the Price is Right game show. As the disks drop through the machine, he has to push sticks into them, which reveals yellow circles. Five circles before a failure means victory. However, he soon loses. In his disappointment, he steals a tabletop version of the game called Klinko from backstage. After he leaves, Bob Barker reveals that hidden under the tabletop was a dazzling array of jewelry.

2. I'm driving with two friends from high school, Sam A and Matt C, just bored and cruising. As we pass through my neighborhood, we see a live bear decked out in Christmas wreaths walking down the street.

Dreaming in four dimensions

found myself in some weird dark room. Don Juan was there eyeing me. He didn't give any time for small talk or introductions.

"This time Robert" he began. "You are going to get an extended lesson. You recently wrote something about dreaming in four dimensions, While accurate, It is not the same as the way I am teaching your friend how to dream in different dimensions. What I will do for you rob, Is teach you and easy way that you can do this yourself. Start by summoning a mirror that is facing another mirror at a ninety degree angle."

I summoned one. He instructed me to stand and look directly into the corner. to be continued...

I started off the dream at some random basement of a house with KA, LI, and VI. It was apparently JU's house and she was having a birthday party. We were sleeping over down here (for some reason seperated from the rest of the people). I had forgotten to buy her a present somehow (so nice eh?), so I was scrambling for stuff. Then I realized that I had some money on me; I would give her that. I then scrambled for some paper and a pencil to make a card.

As I searched for paper, I opened a creaky closet door. Inside there was a random toilet. I shut it again and looked over, and my friends were giving me that "Shit look who's there!" look. I saw it was apparently JU's mom. She asked me what I was doing. I gave the deer-in-headlights stare. Then she asked if I had dropped something there, and I said that I had.

Then I was outside. It was a grey day. There were these grey buildings that looked out onto some murky sort of beach pool thing. At some point I became lucid, though I can't remember much of it. The last thing I remember is chasing V.

In another dream, I was at some pew with a random blonde man. I was licking his neck and shoulders and kissing his face. But at the same time he was being judged by a jury. The jury said he was guilty, and then I saw myself stand up. But I was totally decked out in this black cocktail dress with a fuzzy boa and many jewels, and a hat too. I was mad at the jury and started yelling at him. Then it ended.

Well i was at home with my friends in a weekend after school in madrid and i smoke weed talking about lucid dreaming and i actualy realise i was in my dreams and instantly my dream change i was at my home in madrid with my mom in the room and she was yelling at me biceause i smoke weed and saying she was going to send me to a bording school . But then it got worse she left the room i look true the window and i literaly start flying and heading nowhere and sudently i felt , but it was more a nightmare than a nice trip . Is it common your first time ?

I just remembered that in my dream last night I was in some place that I suddenly realised consisted of minecraft blocks. There was some strange fancy 3D filter on that I didn't like.

Merman

I was in some large courtyard area, everyone was wearing my old school uniform and all the guys were from my old year group. One guy who was always a complete asshole to me poked me with a fork as I walked past. I told him not to do that and started giving him some shit. Another one of his dickhead mates backed him up and then another. I grabbed the last guy to come over in a headlock and dragged him a few meters away before slamming him onto the ground. He was knocked unconscious but started to move a few seconds later. Everyone started looking at me so I casually walked away. I found a random room with a bunch of people practicing martial arts. There was an old asian teacher and a bunch of students. I realised I was dreaming and popped out an extra pinky finger. I went to the other side of the room and there was a big curtain, I went underneath it and there was another room like the last but empty. A small kid followed me, i turned the light down to dim so no one would know we were there. Me and the kid started sparing and he was pretty good. I peeked back under the curtain and saw 2 police officers, they saw me so I ran out the back door. There was a beach and it had gotten dark now. I was sprinting very fast on the sand and kept trying to fly but couldnt. I didnt know what else to do so I jumped into the water. I could breathe fine and felt a mermaid tail instead of legs. I started swimming through the water fast, it was realy fun. I came across a bunch of other mermaids and a few mermans. It was like they were all getting ready for an orgy or something. I went over to a few mermaids and they werent interested. I was kinda gutted but then I saw two very pretty mermaids looks at me and I swam over to them. I grabbed one in each arm and swam slowly as I woke up.

Yep. Title says it all. So now what do I do? I have to write after the day like right now, and im lucky I still vaguely remember last nights. But thats today. Guess whats coming up? Another night, another day, and a new entry. I have another option which is to get up earlier and write before leaving. The problem: That means I have to get up earlier I guess I got no choice.

Dream: I saw a critic before going to bed that described Coldplay very harshly. So I dreamed about me defending my favorite band in a library. I also think : Hey, I should use this chance to look for Stephen Laberge's book! Then, and thats weird, I dream about a Dungeon pokemon game where the narrator says something like: All this confusion makes the rescue team confused. And then I do a reality check but wake up just before I do it. Sucks

Countdown: 13 nights

I've only had one dream that felt like a past life. For the record, I do believe in reincarnation, though I don't claim to know anybody I've ever been. This dream felt like the closest think to a window into a possible life I've ever had though.

I was in a time period that appeared to be about two thousand years ago, give or take a few hundred years.

I was wearing furs for clothes and I was a standing sentinal for my village. I had a sword at my side and was accomponied by a younger male who I felt a familial affection for. We stood atop a hill over looking a valley a short ways from our village, about a ten minute run.

Two roman soldiors in full roman regelia with a local man who served as their guide came out from behind a grove of trees. I knew they were the advance guards and more were to come. I told the youth who was with me to run and inform the village to flee.

I knew the only way we had a chance of informing the village was if I were to slow these three down. The romans sent the scout whom they had no care for up after me. I barely won the confrontation and found it remarkably difficult to shove my sword through his chest. The roman soldiors watched the fight, and had placed bets on it, kind of like we would a horse race.

The next part was weird. One of the roman soldiors threw his beautifull brass headed spear at me. It was weird because the spear looked as if it would miss me, but instead curved in, and forced me to leap or be skewered, like how a baseball player throws a curve ball. While gathering my self on the ground from having lept out of the way of the first spear. The second soldior threw his spear and hit the right side of my face, taking off my ear and the adjoining skin. Dazed from the blow I was not even a fight when they came upon me with their swords and killed me.

I was on a neighborhood street that was a steep hill. The sky was blue made me think I was in California and possibly by the water. I went into a blue house that was dimly lit. I saw an impossibly large TV that’s width took up the whole wall. I should have realized that it was a dream at this point. I then walked into the bathroom and may have looked in the mirror but I don’t remember. I may not have been alone but I do not remember.

Type: regular dream.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Notes:
In real life I ordered a Fight Club poster a few days ago, and I'm waiting for it to be delivered. That's obviously where this dream came from.

It was daytime, and the sky was filled with wispy white cumulus clouds. I was sitting on the concrete front steps of my house, looking around the block. The deliveryman should be there any minute to drop it off, I thought. As soon as I finished thinking those words, a man in a full-body navy suit came around the corner (there was a high wooden fence in the way) and walked up to me. It looked like he was wearing a janitor's outfit, but it was slightly baggier. He was holding a large square box over his shoulder, and when in close proximity to me, he put it on the ground.

It wasn't sealed, so I kneeled down and opened it up right away, expecting a Fight Club poster to be inside. Instead, I found two separate posters, rolled up so the white sides were facing outwards. I said, "these aren't mine," without even looking to see if even one of them was the one I ordered. "Tell your boss to get the damn order right next time," I added, and kicked the box over to his feet.
