8/25/13 (L) | Generic Lucid 3
When I became lucid in the dream, it wasn’t very stable, so I spun around and rubbed my hands together, as well as verbally instructing the dream to stabilize. It worked. One of the conditions was near-optimal—it wasn’t too late in the REM period, but I forgot my dream intention.
Time: 20-30 seconds

8/26/13 (L) | Successful WILD, Longest LD Milestone
It started out right at the beginning of the REM cycle. I lost lucidity for a moment, but then I regained it. I noticed that I wasn’t fully anchored in the dream and I was getting excited, so I did a reality check and calmed myself down. I grew my tail to 38 inches. I felt it and controlled it. After that, I had minor difficulties and suddenly had 3 legs. [New Scene] It was an urban area and a guy, a girl, and another guy were around. There was snow on the ground. I strangely forgot my dream intention again. There was this purple liquid that the girl had to use for something and it wasn’t completely edible, so I made a green liquid that was. When I drank it, it tasted like soap and did nothing. [New Scene] I was on a bus and wanted to do a whirlwind sprint through the window and on to another bus on the freeway exit. Instead, I froze time and rode the bus. [FA] I thought I had woken up, so I looked at my heater, but I couldn’t see it enough. SP was engaged. I waited for SP to disengage so I could see what temperature the room was, but the display was off. The fan was still running, however. Because of that, I again reconfirmed my lucidity and another dream scene happened. [New Scene] A camp-like outdoor place during the day. [FA] This time I was standing up, and I saw a few zeros on my alarm clock display and I was still lucid. [New Scene] I don’t remember anything after that, but I eventually woke up because the REM period ended. I was lucid the entire time.
Time: 10-20 minutes

8/28/13 | 19 Purple Coins
It started out on a freeway, driving past a fair that I suddenly teleported to. I was riding on a Kirby Air Ride rail that transported me to the entrance. When I arrived, I was handed 19 Mario Galaxy purple coins. I stood there for 5 minutes or so.

A massive building is burning burning...
A woman with dark hair and pale skin is watching the scene while screaming over telephone. The building is a lunatic asylum... The recipient of the screaming is a young female receptionist. She explains to the angry woman that people must evacuate and inevitably change beds.
Mary gives up and walks with me to a red brick building with a cylinder and cone connected. I follow her in the building, curious. She is introduced to a plump woman who talks to her in a foreign language. I ask timidly, "Why is the positioning of people in the asylum important?"
She sighs, you see, information can be stored in binary. In this case it was vacant or occupied. Information can be stored via this, and therefore save computer space and it can be used as a backup. My life's work has been perfecting this system, storing info by colour of beds, difficulty of patient, gender... All gone."

Bad or near to zero recall, 5 failed WILD attempts, deep sleep.
I really should RC more, so i can increase the chance of success . But then , I don't want to have an unstable DILD , dild never went good for me. I want to have a WILD , finally a lucid dream where i was lucid from the very beginning so it may be more stable , and would take more time , before I wake up.
Plus I need to find that dreamguide of mine, tried many times and failed to find it. I wonder if I have one? Or I have to create one myself?
Next week exams will be over so after I've done with them, I hope I'll have some LD's with the feel of relief.

For the past week or so I've been applying to jobs and my subcon has been stuck in loop about the concept of getting a job. Despite on-and-off attempts to meditate on the subject and flush the dreams out or use them as a lucid trigger nothing worked. In my private DJ, the past five days were lumped into one entry with me instead noting minor differences in the dream plot instead of even retyping the whole dream. This morning was the first morning that I had a new different dream. Though the way I recall it happening is very fragmented, and I've probably gotten a lot of details wrong. In fact, I'm not even entirely sure this is all last night, I think portions of it might be from a couple days ago.

I recall the dream starting out in this snowy area with abandoned buildings. This is some kind of war game in where dreamers and their constructs have to work together to compete in a field of combat. Manei and I are playing but we get some kind of unfair disadvantage from the start because we each only have a very underpowered handgun with only a few bullets. Other players are starting with much better weapons like LMGs and rocket launchers.

I remember I said we should try to scavenge some better weapons. We hid in a large brick apartment building and climbed to the top floor. We could hear people fighting on the floor below us. I saw somebody who looked like a little kid wearing a skateboard helmet with a fake mohawk made out of plastic spikes on the rooftop of a neighboring building and start shooting with a sniper. I shot all my bullets at him. One of them hit and he broke apart into blue pixels.

I tried to run and jump the gap to the roof of the other building but as I was jumping a big group of guys in yellow halo armor came out and killed both of us.

I re-appeared in this grassy meadow. The meadow was surrounded on all sides by these huge trees that grew like arches, growing up at an angle, curving and growing back down into the ground somewhere else. I saw the boy that I had killed there but he was wearing different clothes, like a white tee-shirt. Other people were appearing in flashes of light. I figured this was where people went after they had died in the war game. An official explained to me that I had 'above average physical abilities and confidence' and that using them made me a cheater at the war game, so the yellow armored guys (police/refs) came and killed me. Manei and I decided we didn't care about the game.

...

Somehow this led to a portion of the dream where we went to the store and Manei bought a lego set.

...

Then this somehow got into a dream about high school. I was in a class and there were only a few people in teh class. The teacher was talking about something math related. Manei was trying to put the lego set together in the back of the class and without the teacher noticing. I told her to put it away or the teacher might take it away. She then took out a tray of cookies and started eating them and offering them to the other students and I told her to put them away or she might get in trouble for eating in class.

When I walked out of class there was a big floating robot with two scissor arms in the hallway. It cut Manei in half and I became lucid. I didn't care that Manei had died because death is all relative to the dream and I knew with full confidence she'd reform shortly. The robot said in a female voice "You are under arrest for being in violation of the treaty of Versailles version 4 point [long string of random numbers]" All I could reply with was a bunch of profanities, followed by "Bye!"

I slid under the robot, almost getting caught by the scissor hand but the hand tried to cut me and got stuck in the floor. I flew up and out of the window (there was no glass in it). I flew up and looked over my shoulder to see many of the identical robots chasing me. I flew up through the overcast clouds and into space. The immediate vicinity had about a dozen green and blue earthlike planets orbiting the same sun and the space around them was cluttered with countless o'neil cylinders and huge solar collection arrays. I began weaving through them thinking I wanted to get clear of the dyson swarm before I tried to fly too fast as to crash into anything. I saw the scissor robots break off and be replaced by a large spaceplane with police sirens on it.

...

I don't recall if I managed to escape or not. I false awoke in my room and there was a big snapping turtle by my closet. At first I was scared of it because I thought that it was hostile; knowing that snappers can take a finger off. It knocked over some stuff in my closet and a rolled up poster fell out. I sighed and got up to clean up the spill and saw a two rings, one black and one green, and a folded note. I read the note but forgot what it said, just that it was written in red pen.

At first I was outside near my house and there were random people there. For some reason, they were a threat to me. I can't really remember this part. However, I realized it was a dream (there was no particular reason how I knew) and flew away. I wanted to fly to my crushes house, but one of the people at my house wouldn't let me and made me return home somehow. It was a boy, and one of the "cool kids" (or teenagers). I flew faster and then he couldn't do it because I was so far away already. While on the way to my crushes house I stopped because I realized I could do one ToTM, the recalling one. I succeeded. It was cool. I didn't know I could do that. I also looked at my environment and sky just for fun. The houses there looked cartoonish. The sky was boring. It wasn't even blue. I continued and realized I could fly faster if I was heading down rather than up. There were trees. Finally (this sounded like the trip was long but it wasn't) I got to the house. I made myself small and used some hole instead of a door (????logic) to go inside. I saw though the walls and felt uneasy. Rooms were small. My crush, his sister and his brother were there. I talked to his sister. Then the dream ended.

Date of Dream: FRI 16 JUN - 2017



Dream No. 134 - Separated Sections

Dream 134 A - You're Not Going Anywhere
I remember I was with my mum at grandma at Parkmore Shopping Centre, although it looked nothing like Parkmore in the dream. It rather looked like some deserted country area with only a small mall for shopping. It wasn't long before we were driving down the road towards home. When we were home, my parents were angry at me for something but I forgot what for specifically. My mum and dad threatened that I was not going to go out with them later.

Time had past and they said I could go out with them and so the dream generated an outfit for me. It was a navy blue dress with green polka dots as well as bright green sandals. All I can remember now is that I was outdoors somewhere with my mum, dad and brother... Nothing else.

Dream 134 B - Muddy Matters
The first part of the dream is blurry to me. I do remember that my dad's friend EW and his wife JW were holding some sort of party that my family were invited to. I do not remember what we did at the start but I rather the remember the end of the dream.

To get to this party, I realised we had to go below the muddy water that had flooded the dreamscape. At first, I was hesitant... I thought I would possibly drown and die. Eventually, I did go under water and found myself self teleported to another realm of similar appearance to the last one. We still weren't at the location of the party though. Apparently we had to enter the inside of this huge non-see through cloud and that's where all the action was happening... It was like someone's massive concert in the city. That's all I can remember for this dream.

LD 95 - Hungry Jurassic Visitor
I'm at a large store or mall with friends. I sit close to the others as they try to play a game on an old TV. It's a black CRT TV and the video quality gives it away too. I have an electric kettle with two spouts. One is blue and the other is white, like the rest of the kettle. I drink tea straight out of it. After a while I walk away alone.

The mall turns into a public indoors swimming pool. I go to the showers and saunas before going to the pool, like you are supposed to. When I get to the pool, I see a tower with several levels to jump from. I visualize jumping from 6 m diving board, backflipping onto the 3 m diving board below to gain more height, then spinning and flipping like crazy in the air, before diving into the pool. My visualizations have turned into the dream, and I actually dive into the pool after the crazy jumps. It takes a while to resurface, and the pool is full of people now, so I struggle to make it past them in time and fear I might drown, but I make it.

In the swimming pool, I realize I have no clothes on, no swimwear of any kind. A pretty woman was getting really close to me. After a bit of fooling around I said I had to go and asked if she wanted to meet again. She did. I went to the showers again and thought about heading home.

Dream skips to a big red house surrounded by forest. Reminded me of my dad's childhood home, but there were many differences. There were planted flowers, apple trees in front of the house, young birch trees and other trees near the house. The house was on a bigger hill too. A random DC, a boy was on the yard. I was looking after him. Felt like I was his big brother. He was constantly doing something dangerous, I couldn't take my eyes off of him. He gave me his ice cream and I accepted it. He ran off towards the front of the house and I followed, trying to eat the ice cream on the way. The apple tree had some low hanging branches with a beehive I had to avoid.

After clearing the trees, I saw my mom in front of the house. I talked to her from a distance, then suddenly a skeletal dinosaur appears from behind the house. It's the Spinosaurus from Jurassic Park 3. Mom doesn't realize the danger before I yell for her to run. She runs in one direction, I run in another. There's a pile of those birds from the movie "Up" next to the house. I hide behind them. The dinosaur finds me. The fear of death clears my mind, my focus on survival is absolute. In this moment of clarity, I become lucid. I raise my hand in the last possible moment towards the beast to stop it from eating me. I start humming a song, focusing on charming the dinosaur. I can see the beast calming down for a moment, then breaking free from my control. I keep trying, but every time the beast breaks free. I start thinking that I'm trying too hard, usually that ends the lucid dream. Well, guess what happened.

I woke up and chained back to the previous dream shortly after.

Julie
I'm with my brother and dad. I tell them about the previous dream in detail and I get transported back into it. I'm in my apartment, cursing to myself. At the pool I didn't get the girl's name and we didn't decide when or where to meet. How am I supposed find her? I feel really bad about it.

I make my way to university, into a weird lecture hall. The male teacher is making jokes, students seem to like him. The teacher asks one student to draw a penguin on the board for some reason. To my surprise, the girl from the pool is sitting close to me. She passes me a purple piece of paper when the lecture ends. It says her name, Julie, and that she would love to still have a date.

I talk to a friend in front of a bathroom mirror. I have some weird red spots on my face. Perfect time for those, I think sarcastically. My friend says I look fine. I look for trashcan to throw the purple piece of paper, since I don't need it anymore. There's no trashcan anywhere, and when I find one, a cleaning lady says it's not for paper. I've wandered into a massive hallway now. A doctor collapses nearby. Medical students rush to help and I do too. I want to help. One student asks me to ready the IV attached to the stretcher. I have to set it to drip slowly? I'm not sure how to do it. As the doctor is lifted onto the stretcher, he does it himself by compressing an inhaler looking part that's attached to the IV bag.

I wake up at 3 AM as part of my subconscious WBTB.
I am certainly awake at this point as I move some objects on my desk for verification in the morning along with a standard RC. I soon settle down back to bed. My green phosphines make psychedelic patterns as I consider a WILD. Dreamlike imagery of a valley with huge waterfalls flashes by... Suddenly, I am lifted and thrown to the side of my bed! I look at my bed in shock AND I AM LYING DOWN ON MY BED! I don't see a cord, and I guess this was the resolution of a ridiculous argument about it's existence to another person. I look out the window at the serene night. I wander my eyes across the suburban scene until suddenly, a planet-sized dodecahedron soap (you know like all reflecting rainbow stuff) arches across from the east. I decide to take action so I fly through the window effortlessly. I love this move and I do it in almost every dream possible! Now it is daytime with a little suggestion, and I find a fictional bridge across water.

I swim fluidly and fly up to the side of the bridge. I notice small holes in the bridge and more soap bubbles bubble out...

I now fly with a companion to a rundown building. I phase through the door feeling a surge of the blue affect me. I find myself in a hall filled with people. I sense a sense of shock as they are still, silent and staring. There are three doors and a staircase. I choose the stair case and I sight a passage to my left. I float down it and locate a room to my right. The door is open and an elderly woman is wearing a mauve dress. I talk to her and she alerts me that the people downstairs are my ancestors...

I have taken to a more detailed dream account as I realize that small details slip the mind in the long term and including them provides a better read. I wonder what my really long dreams shall take up!

#510–DILD-1:30AM

There is a large brown bear that was sort of a pet but it’s now becoming too aggressive. It wants in the house but I wont let it. I see it’s face pressed against the kitchen window then pawing at the back door. It’s going to destroy my house so I decide it’s time to get the hunting rifle. I load strange looking bullets into the gun. I note the bullets look awfully odd but assume it will work. I go out back and see the bear in out field. My kids appear and I tell them Alysha will just have to understand that I have no choice. I aim and the scope looks all weird but I fire anyway. I’m surprised the sound was so quiet. Looks like a miss so I try again. This time the gun fires 5 or 6 shoots at an incredible rate. The recoil throws my off balance. I look in the scope again and the bear is cut into a bloody mess.

I noticed there were some wolves with the bear earlier so I figure I need to see why. I go around front and find a pelt of some animal under the front deck and decide that must be attracting them. I drag the pelt to the road and toss it across into the ditch. I am walking back to the house and spot the bloody bear in the back. I think I should dispose of the carcass as well. That's when I see it get up and start charging at me. I think werebear though its more of a zombie bear. It seems bigger now with massive tusk like teeth. It's charging fast on its hind legs. I am terrified looking for a way out. This is were I suddenly become lucid.

I smile and tell the bear to bring it on while I stand there waiting. When it is close enough I punch it straight in the chest and send it flying high into the sky.

I look down and see the bear charging at me again. It looks more humanoid this time and just as monstrous. I smile and stand my ground. Again I send it flying only to meet another. The next one looks more like a mass of blue plastic that mildly resembles the beast from before. I am still not worried. I put a shoulder down and charge back at it giving it a massive shoulder check sending the beast again high into the sky. I watch it get smaller and smaller. Then it stops, hovers and forms into a ball. I force push it to send it on a little more. There is something like streaks of blue magic like when a Jedi would use force push. I say, "Now your are a balloon." The beast ball calmly floats higher and higher until I can no longer see it. The beast does not return.

I shout, "Whooo Hooo! Yeah! I love this!" I am happy about my victory but also very excited to be in a lucid dream. I start toward my house to find something else to do, but the dream feels finished and I wake up.

I try to recall the dream but quickly find myself in FA. Canis Lucidus is doing dishes, scrubbing one of my pots. Some how the scrubbing action is tickling me and in the FA I wake up laughing because of this. This scene quickly fades and I wake for real.

This is only over the past couple of days.

Weird house

I was in a house with a strange lady. I kept telling her she looked like the female version of John Goodman from Roseanne. That's all I remember.

Outside

First I was in a living room. I heard Chuck missler from youtube talking through the dream. My Brother was there and he was looking for the source of the sounds. It looked like he wanted to shut it off.

Suddenly I'm outside. There's a large bee around the front door of the house and I am trying to avoid it.

Asuka

Something about seeing her and smiling at me.

Movie

I'm with my mom and we are watching movies. In one Jim Carrey is fighting Satan. Suddenly I'm inside the movie and I'm flying around a black space. There's something like a grey pyramid I start climbing. The whole time the devil is trying to tempt me.

Suddenly I'm in the living room again. and We are trying to figure out which movie to watch next.

This is the kind of dream that was so amazing, at the end of it, fully oblivious of being in a dream state, I looked back upon what had just happened, and exclaimed that it had quite truly been the best day of my life. So here goes the story:

We open up behind a boulder. I hide here with my colleague, although I have no idea who they are. In front of us lies a great canyon, and spanning it a massive bridge. This bridge leads to our capital city and it is the key point of our defence. And then we hear it. The noise we had all been dreading. From behind the rock, we suddenly see something truly awe inspiring. A massive seafaring vessel, 450 feet long and styled as a private yacht rolls up on a wheeled contraption and smashes into the near side of the bridge. Thousands upon thousands of Chinese stealth soldiers pour out of its belly and stream across the canyon floor. Above them, the vessel unloaded vehicles that attempted to break through the defences on the bridge itself. As we hid behind the rock, we watched our countrymen begin their valiant defence.

While behind the rocks, I saw purple energy generators all over the ship beginning to boot up. I immediately knew that they were about to generate a field around the entire battle that would allow space to be manipulated. As they booted up, I focused on a spaghetti noodle on the ground and managed to pick it up and snap it even in the weak, pre-boot field that hung in the air. The soldiers stormed and stormed toward the opposite end of the canyon, a seemingly endless mass pouring from the belly of the beastly ship. As the field booted up, the men all raised off the ground, floating along in one giant formation right at the bottom of the bridge. They had the height advantage but were suddenly set up like pigs in the slaughter. As one last man ran toward them and floated up, I told my Lieutenant to watch. I focused everything on wrenching that man from the air and slamming him on the ground, but all I managed was to wobble his flight path and cause him to drop from the field and land on his rump, to the amusement of all the waiting soldiers who were too far from the battle to care.

And then, the moment I have waited for arrives. The opposing commander, a girl of a darker complexion than the soldiers and dressed in black commando garb comes out of the ship. She wields a pink beam, like a lightsaber that is flat and wide and comes out of a pistol grip. In this moment I remembered that I had stolen a similar device from one of her guards another day, and it was in my gear. The only problem was that I had no power cells. All I had was my Lenovo laptop, the greatest piece of shit the world of computers has ever seen. But I knew she would have just enough juice. Quickly, I rigged the grip to the bottom of the computer and wired it up to the battery. When she came near the rock, I hit the shitty power button and the blade came out. It was a sad and shitty thing compared to her own, but even a foot long solid state laser can cut a woman in half. I ran up behind her and lay a deep and vicious cut in her side. She cried out, I smacked her in the face, then leapt and flew through the air to join my comrades. On the other side were many of my friends operating as the commanding officers. And with myself out of the line of fire, I ordered David to boot up the ultimate defense. We didn't have the fancy psionic and laser powers that the enemy had, or some crazy big boat. No, what we had was a bridge made of invincible beams, and a rotary cannon with 22 barrels, each 22 feet long and 22 inches wide. She fired at 2000 RPM and could instantly rip a whole army to shreds. And that she did. The poor soldiers all squished together under that bridge melted like butter unter a blowtorch. With only an eighth of her army remaining, now hiding behind the pillars, I flew over to the opposing commander. She was struggling with my crude laptop beam, trying to figure out if it was our tech or hers, and how to operate it. When I came close she tried to turn it on and finish me.

"You see, the problem that you're having here is that your laser beam is great, and that laptop is a piece of shit."

She threw it aside angrily and reached for hers. I slapped her hand away and disarmed her, throwing it over the side of the cliff. In the background the cannon booted up again and turned their boat into scrap metal. She tried to initiate hand-to-hand but the cut I'd given her cost her any chance of winning. Instead I held her, and showed her the battlefield.

"You've lost. Understand that part, just forget about the battle. However, I could be persuaded to let you join me."

My hold on her slowly loosened into more of an embrace. We stood together on the cliff face, watching the fireworks unfold as pink lighting and fire shot from the dying ship. Slowly, I turned to her, and planted a gentle kiss on her lips. She was paralysed in confusion. I looked into her eyes. "You put up a good fight, better than anyone yet. I'm impressed." I laughed. Her confusion intensified, but I could see the intentional defiance and pride in her eyes. She knew I saw it too and shied away into the cliff face. I let her go, and turned back to watch the sights. Suddenly her arms were on me, reaching for my throat, trying to find a hold to finish my life.
I threw her, first in a judo sense, and then in a darth vader sense. She calmly floated down the cliffside toward my side of the canyon. I followed, and dropped her on the soil of my homeland. She stood up, and could understand my power. This was my domain, and I did not need any technology to be in control. And yet I did not exert anything over the world, happy to let it play out. She stood up, grabbed me again, and kissed me hard. We stayed this way for some time. I broke it off, smiled, and said to come with me. We slowly walked into the mass of my men, and I lost her in the crowd.

And now the ultimate moment of my plan. I found Samuel, my giant Sudanese commando, and told him to detain her. The poor misguided girl would spend her time in jail for killing my countrymen. He and some men ran to find her, and I began the debrief with my commanders.

Standing over the battlefield, one of my friends asked me how the battle went. I turned, looked at them, cracked a smile, and said

"All things considered, this was hands down the best day of my life."

Got to sleep paralysis, messed up the transition. Just slept through since I rather not lose sleep anymore over a failed attempt. Better luck tomorrow.

So last night I had this strange thing happen. I was sleeping and woke up. I turned over and lay there. You know how as your falling asleep your thinking these random things...well I was doing that - and falling back to sleep - when I realized I was starting to see what I was thinking of as a dream. It was a strange feeling. To be aware of it.

So I was having this crazy dream that started with me at a dance recital with Abby from dance moms (lol), that turned into an alien invasion. As some point I realized I was dreaming, so of course I ran to the first person I saw and told them this was my dream. They just looked at me with a blank expression. I calmed myself, and noticed how solid and stable the dream was. Then I decided to try to find my mom (my mother died when I was 2 so I don't remember her, and I never dream of her. Trying to find her is something I often do when i'm lucid....but I never do.) I knew I wouldn't find her where I was - at the top of an extremely high hotel - and I knew I didn't have a lot of time. So I decided to jump off the balcony but I couldn't climb up on the railing. So I decided to take the slides down. At some point on the way down I lost lucidity and woke up.

Date of Dream: THU 15 JUN - 2017



Dream No. 133 - Separated Sections

Dream 133 A - The Dreadful Diploma
The dream was anticipating the Diploma of Accounting at Chisholm. Apparently it had tobe done at a different campus than where Certificate IV was done and this campus was no familiar location in real life, it also looked more like a high school than a tertiary institution. So me and a whole group of students were upstairs in this random building at the diploma enrolment. The teacher also looked unfamiliar too. They said that every single one of them in this room was going to be teaching us diploma.

We were split up into small groups of about 3 or 4 students and teacher. I had this wacky looking man that dressed like someone from the 20th century... Hard to explain. The dream then skipped to the leading teacher, a lady, violently chasing me all around the campus. I don't remember what she was saying or doing exactly. That's all I can remember about this dream.

Dream 133 B - A Horrible Welcome
I remember I was paying a visit to Killester again. The dream made it look more like a primary school than high school. In the undercover area, I saw JL sitting on a bench, eating her lunch, and I decided to sit on the other side of the bench and talk to her for a bit. Ms L then walked by and she didn't look happy. She was asking me why I was here. I said I just wanted to say hello. Then she said that all I want to do is see WB again. I didn't know what to say to her but she said that she would be back.

I then walked off and found myself in this open space area. There I saw WB and think her friend RL was with her, I forgot who else she was with. I thought WB wouldn't be happy to see me but she was the complete opposite. RL was also happy to see me too. WB and I spoke for quite a while. During that time, I thought Ms L would come back as mad as can be but that never happened. I then consciously thought that in between the time I had left the bench and I had found WB, she told Ms L not to do anything. That's all I can remember about this dream.
