Ok, so last night I had 3 non lucid dreams. Although non lucid, they were all pretty vivid. I think they might have been connected together. I'll give an explanation of what happened in all 3 dreams but since they were all so vivd I'll just give a short summary instead of explaining with a lot of detail.

Dream 1: I was at school walking with my friend. Everything was normal except for the fact that he was wearing pearls around his neck. I asked if I could have one and he said yes and broke one off for me. I took the pearl, put it in my pocket, and then told him it was for my collection of gems (I don't actually have a collection of gems). and then I woke up at around 1:00 in the morning. I wrote down the dream in my dream journal then fell back asleep.

Dream 2: This one was a false awakening. I woke up on the couch in the family room of my house (note: theres a tv in the family room) It was night time and the lights were off. The only light in the room was from the tv which was playing some show on disney channel. The show was about some family, but one of the kids in the family splayed out a bunch of different colored diamonds onto a table. There were a few green diamonds, a few red diamonds, and a few purple diamonds, and all pretty small. After watching a bit of this show on disney channel, I then actually woke up in my bed at around 4:00 in the morning. I actually got up, went to the bathroom to pee, and did a reality check and I found out I was actually awake this time. So I wrote the dream down in my dream journal, and went back to bed.

Dream 3: I was some where in my neighborhood with my friends (the one with the pearl necklace from the first dream was there, but wasn't wearing the pearl necklace). We were just talking at first until we saw a swarm of bees and we all ran back to my house. I was the slowest one out of all of us because it felt like something was weighing me down. Here's the interesting part though. While running, I went into my pocket and pulled out all the different colored diamonds I saw on tv in the second dream, and the pearl my friend gave to me in my first dream. We got into my house and I went to my room, and remember how in the first dream I said the pearl was for my "collection of gems"? Well I had a bunch of different gems splayed out all over my floor, organized by color and I put the pearl with all the white colored gems, and I put the diamonds I saw on tv in their respective group of gems (i put the purple diamonds with all the purple gems, the green diamonds with the green gems, and the red diamonds with the red gems.)

Dream One- I am walking through an old town with HUGE houses that look a combination of Greek temples and old southern plantations. It's very overcast, like it could storm at any moment. I walk down a street that divides the ruins of one particularly huge house that is nothing more than broken columns and a half crumbled wall. As I walk through that ruin, I feel very scared and creeped out. the whole place just feels wrong and I do not want to be there. I notice a huge cartoonish concrete lyre on the right side of the ruins. It's probably a good twenty feet or more high, but looks very rounded and unrealistic. I even have the thought that it reminds me of Lyra's cutie mark from My Little Pony. I hurry the rest of the way through the ruins to another dark street that goes between a couple more of the huge houses, these are in fairly good shape and look very lived in. A young man runs up from behind me on his hands and knees kind of like you see Tarzan moving around in the Disney movie. The guy has grey and green striped hair in a bowl cut and is wearing black and white stripes like Beetle Juice. He reminds me a lot of Amaimon from Blue Exorcist crossed with Beetle Juice. I instantly feel a connection to him, he reminds me of someone in the family I care about, but I can't put my finger on who. I know he's not one of my kids, but I feel like it's super important to my happiness that I make him happy. He's upset and sad because I didn't take him to prom like I said I would. I look up into the stormy clouds and they start to swirl. I close my eyes and step forwards, willing myself back in time. I am at the house I lived in in highschool, and I see the guy in the driveway on two feet like a normal person, holding flowers. He's very happy to see me, and runs towards me. I hold up a hand in a, "hold on" motion, and he stops long enough for me to dig out the key and open the door to the house. I apologize for not being ready for prom yet, but promise him it'll only take me a few minutes to get ready. He's so excited he drops back on all fours and launches at me with his tongue hanging out. In mid leap, he transforms from this person into our 5 month old puppy Artemis. I fall over giggling as Arty goes crazy licking my face and wagging his whole body. The world spins around me, and I am sitting in a movie rental place looking at pictures of Artemis on my phone giggling as how sweet and cute a puppy he is.

Dream Two - I am in a futuristic city now. I am male, and dressed in Assassin's Creed style garb. my view switches pretty constantly from first person to seeing myself as if watching the action on a tv. First I am trying to snipe a group of nazis on a round platform. They have an arc of the covenant and I am trying to steal it from them. My first attempt only kills one of them, and the rest parade off the round platform and down a ramp too fast for me to catch them. I restart the challenge, this time sniping three of them, but again the rest parade down the ramp in a tight group to rush away the arc before I can intercept. I go through my inventory and find that I have only an old handgun that looks straight out of the civil war, some throwing knives, and a dagger. I think that it's stupid I have a hidden blade bracer but can't use my hidden blade yet as that is my favorite assassins creed weapon. I try chasing the parade with my dagger equipped, and manage to kill another two nazis, but there are still at least 5 more carrying it away. I consider how the ramp spirals down and down and down in what seems like an unending corkscrew. I think maybe I can jump off the side and land farther down the corkscrew to head them off. I give this a shot, but I end up just falling, and falling, and falling unable to angle myself to latch back onto the corkscrew. Finally I am able to get a hand out enough to swing myself around to the ramp below the hand hold. When I land it depletes my health to only one bar and turns my vision red. I think to myself I am going to have to restart because I am dieing, but I wake up instead.

And just because I like to show off my fur babies, a picture of Artemis is attached

I'm in a bedroom inside a tower block. The windows are huge, as if the whole outer wall is made of glass. There's an animal outside on the ledge. I think it's a dog, but it could be a deer. It banged itself against the window pane. I make some forceful action with my arm and then the animal suddenly jumps off the ledge in fright. I'm extremely remorseful and feel terrible that I caused the animal to fall to its death.

Still in the apartment, I'm aware of a man who wishes to do me harm. He isn't present, however. He reminds me of Ramsay Bolton from Game of Thrones. I'm worried he will show up at the apartment but he never does. I don't know why he wants to harm me.

Then, I'm no longer here. I seem to be in some kind of party or bar. I see Danny H. He's dressed up in a white shirt and beige waistcoat rather than his usual black hoody. He seems happy to see me. I also see Danny R. (Why so many Dannys?) I see myself with people in third person view. I seem to be very drunk and my speech slurred. My dream self doesn't at all look like my real self and I get the impression my dream self is Polish. I start slurring some words, possibly 'fuck the police', but it sounds ridiculous, and more like 'ruck a piece'. I then see big square-sized photographs. I think they may be vinyl record covers. They are pictures of myself standing next to people, possibly those from the party.

I was in some competition. It started with teams & then it got down to 2 people. There were food competitions where logic was so out of the window & abstract. It was hard to understand let alone explain.

No lucids lately & I just don't get it. Which is surprising because I saw the documentary "The Nightmare" on Netflix about sleep paralysis & my husband got a glimpse of the kinds of things that I have endured do to sleep paralysis. For me I believe there is something in our bodies to keep us from acting out our dreams but there are definitely other entities present around us all of the time. I would highly recommend this documentary.

I'd led my friends into an abandoned house to hide from the group of rebels. They've found us now, five rebels armed to the teeth against six or seven unarmed civilians.

Well.

And me.

"What's this?" The leader sneers. "Snivelling collaborators, hiding with the trash?" He smiles, and it's an awful little thing. "Get up and fight us!"

"You still outnumber us, after all," says one of the rebel women, a smile in her voice.

That won't do.

The group of civilians are removed with a mental gesture, hustled through the aether. It takes me a moment to think of a place to set them down, where there won't already be a crowd. I settle on the dirt pile next to the Ixburg house.

I blink, coming back to the now-emptier abandoned house. The silence has been drawn like a bow string, the rebels staring at me.

"Seems fairer now," I explain.

The leader swears.

"You don't understand," he says, anger colouring his voice. "When our enemies came in and overthrew the last regime, they turned my country into HELL. They needed diamonds to fulfil the promises they made to their allies; they worked the citizenry like dogs. This is our chance to set things right."

"Of course," I say mildly. "By marching into people's homes and murdering families in cold blood. Setting things right. Definitely not starting on the same track your enemies did."

Face red, the man shouts a war cry and charges at me.

I just woke up so sad.

In my dream, I was working at an editing place similar to mine. I had been assigned to edit a video my family was doing and Papa was the producer. It was a dream so I didn't really care about the video. After being assigned it I instead headed out into nature and watched the cycle of life as a momma predator and cubs were in the jungle. The momma was killed, and the cubs roamed around until foxes ate them. At one point while filming them, a gorilla came sprinting from behind a tree trying to kill us for proximity. Suddenly I was in the world's largest warehouse. Our filming team was checking it out, 200 foot ceilings and rows of items going all the way up, the place had no end. We were filming in there when the lights went off and we were attacked by gorillas again. Simon got extremely mad because we didn't warn him as a prank, and he turned into a gorilla and went after me. I somehow dropped all of my money in the chase, and it went into a pit in the factory. I lost $2 million. I went in to work to do some stuff and begin earning it all back. The guys at work sat me down, and as gently as they could said my grandfather disliked the video I made and that I could not come back in tomorrow. I was floored. I had just lost all my money and now I was fired for being a shit editor. I flew away, jumping around the warehouse fucking shit up and crying. I left into the night, and found a random party. I tried to join but was too sad. The next day I went back in to work and strolled right into the office. The guys were there and they were surprised to see me. They were interviewing a new kid. I told him I was sacked and he was replacing me, and that before I go I have to know exactly everything I did wrong and how I can improve. They told me some stupid rambling explanation that made no sense and was just purely insulting. I left even more pissed. There was a group of nice girls nearby that I tried to party with, but one of them was an editor as well and knew that I was shit and fired and kept trying to make me feel better. It was so humiliating. They stopped at an apartment block for a massive Jam, we were on a block where every single building had a party on every single floor and people were dancing in the streets. I just simply continued walking in my leather jacket at night, and strolled into the darkness. There was a building that had a tunnel through it for the sidewalk, and it was lit up internally with a beautiful white glow that played off the puddles around it, it made for a beautiful shot and I noticed it and thought I should use it as a film location.

In the last moment of the dream, a girl from the group ran up to stop me from leaving. She tripped and spilled chocolate milk all over me. I got even more upset. I basically teleported back to work where I could shower, and emerged to see the guys confused and worried why I was still there. I said "Didn't you know? You didn't just fire me and fail to teach me what I did wrong, but yesterday all of my money was stolen by a gorilla. My life is over." They asked me what I would do now, and I said eat 6 bags of mushrooms and commit suicide.

Then my alarm went off.

I think I'll go back to sleep and try to start the day on a better note.

It was a cold, overcast day. First I saw an entrance to my house, then I was in my kitchen. All my family has gathered there. Everything felt really big and going really quickly, I was small.

+(f) I'm driving and walking through narrow winding steep roads and paths in a suburban environment

+ chasing cat outside CH on street/dark, cat runs up stairs and I try to grab it it runs away down neighbor driveway and I grab its hind left leg and try to hold one while it tries to keep getting away

+ long discussion of API planning I'm working with engineering group and I ask for their plans

+ at party in house there is a man holding his hand up with some (squished?) mosquitos on it. Some people ring the doorbell and I try to look through the peek hole and don't see anything, I open the door and friends come in, I'm saying that my kids won't like the ratio (of men to women), then I realize SD (male) friend is approaching me for a friendly cheek kiss so I lean in for it and then move on

It's about 9 in the morning, been up since about 5. On the bed, I'm drifting in and out of consciousness, wanting to sleep. I have some awareness of the process and start experiencing hh, notably palpitations, which I allow to be, as I know my heart isn't really beating like that. I keep my awareness relaxed and distant and notice the images floating around behind my eyelids. A table comes into view and then it becomes more and more solid. I'm touching the table and then I realise I'm there in a room. The house is similar to the one I'm really in but also different. I look at my hands and try to stabilise but I feel very floaty and wispy. I notice some furniture -- a mantelpiece with some ornaments on it. I decide I'll conjure up a girl (I really should work on my self control). I float around the house quite excitedly and expect a woman to be behind a door. I enter to find a bedroom. It's very messy. There's nobody inside but there's a bed with a mess of duvets on it so I think she'll be in the bed. However, I don't feel stable enough so I decide to open my real eyes and the dream ends.

Non-lucid, Lucid, [Commentary written while awake]

I'm in the office building complex north of Disneyland. I'm there to be cast in a show or parade there. [I don't specifically remember becoming lucid, but I do remember being lucid.] I'm floating around up by the ceiling, which is a high ceiling, when the casting director walks into the room below me. When I see her enter, I float down so I can talk to her. "Hi," I say while descending. She says I've been cast in [whatever show or parade it was], and to go and change into my costume for the show. I head out of the building to do so.

Outside the building, I stand on a stretch of grass that ends at the top of a concrete block wall, about twelve feet high, at the bottom of which is a sidewalk. I need to get down onto the sidewalk to get back to my car. I know I can do a controlled fall, so I do. I jump off the top of the wall, control my descent speed, and land easily on the sidewalk.

When I get back to my car, I realize I don't have any underclothes with me, and I can't be in the performance without any. I realize I'll have to go to a Walmart or Target and buy new ones, but I don't even know where there is one around here. I decide to set off and go looking for one.

I'm at a freeway onramp, on my bicycle, still on my way to find the nearest Target or Walmart. [Why am I on my bicycle and not in my car? I dunno.] The onramp runs next to a high, tan-colored wall. On this wall, about a quarter to a third of the way down the ramp, there is a traffic sign that reads "NO BICYCLES ON FREEWAY." I start bicycling down the ramp, but when I get to the sign, I read it, sigh, and say, "All right, fine. This is me, not riding my bicycle on the freeway." I get off my bike, turn around, walk it back up the onramp, and start looking for another route that doesn't involve taking the freeway.

D:1 My aunt Jill & I are kids again. She's only a couple of weeks older than me. We are in what looks like my childhood bedroom but it's hers & it has another window in it. We are covering the windows & hiding from people but I don't know who. Non-lucid.

D:2 There are lots of people & I'm walking through a college. Mike is with me. We walk into an auditorium. I can't shake the feeling that this is some kind of set up. We start walking into a classroom but it's like the ones with hard wood seats & the rows are like a theater. The professor is walking slowly down to the front from all of the way in the back. He never quite reaches the first couple of rows. Katie, my grandkids aunt is in the front row. She's a little younger than me. Mike looks at her her & leans down towards her & she is looking at him different. I feel someone lean forward from the second row to tap me on the arm & it's Christian. He is my oldest friend & I trust him with my life. I look back & Katie is pulling Mike to him & they start kissing. Christian grabs my arm & looks straight at me & tells me that everything will be okay. Then I woke up. Non-lucid.

Explanation of details: I was just talking about Jill & my old bedroom. I was also just talking about Katie & Christian. Yesterday we went swimming & when we were walking up the steps I could see that there were a lot of people kissing in the lazy river. I've been looking up people I went to school with lately so that probably explains the class. Or it could be that I deleted a picture of a rented book I had taken. It was the one I returned to the college when Lisa died.

Side Notes- Too burnt to go swimming again today so maybe I'll take a nap & try to get a lucid.

I haven't had a dream set in this location before. Typically my dreams are in more familiar locations or completely fantastical.

It was a three story brick building, like an old New York Firehouse, with fire escapes on the outside. It was a school setting, and each student only had three classes per day. I remember sitting through one of the classes, and the desks were crammed very close to each other. I was doodling on a pad as I half listened to the professor and the other students. I knew that I wasn't a student there and didn't belong, but the others accepted me. Suddenly, I had a bad feeling. I left the room and ran up to the top story. There was a fire that began, but it wasn't a normal fire. It was sentient. As I walked through the smoke and flames, that's when I gained lucidity and realized it was a dream. I put up a forcefield to keep the sentient fire back, and began barking orders at students to get out of the building and back up, because it was going to explode (even though I realize it's a dream, I still like to play it out). Some students didn't listen and I had to go back up and get them down. A couple students had their face melted off by the fire, the faces literally melted like rubber or putty to the ground. About at the point, I woke up to my alarm.

Basically average life in a different town. Driving around, getting pizza, hitting the movies, not much special. I got the name of the girl at the movies, "Mia."

Dream One- I am at work, and we hear a loud sound. Everyone in the plant rushes to look out the front door. One of the skirt ladies's car has been struck by lightening and is on fore. Our Jeep is parked nearby so I run out and move it so that the fire can't spread. My boyfriend climbs in and we just leave work all together, we go to a doctor's office where our pregnant friend is having an ultrasound. Our pregnant friend grows a penis and we make futanari jokes.

Dream Two- My boyfriend and I are at the mall trying to find a new spot that we are supposed to meet my mom at. He is lost, as usual, but I am pretty sure I know exactly where to go. There is some construction in the middle of the mall, a new store I guess, so we have to go around that. We also see Christmas stuff set up for a pictures with Santa kind of thing the mall is going to be holding. We find my mom in a Cafeteria type area with a stage on one end. There is a lady giving a "motivational" speech on the stage. She's going on about how we create our own destiny by choosing the right path. Something is said about attracting a man with positive energies, and my mom acts all over the top about how she needs that. The whole speech though makes me think I had dreamed about something similar. I take out my phone and start searching my dream journal and dream notes looking for it, but I can't find it. The speech is over, and my boyfriend is ready to go home, so he kind of rushes me saying it doesn't matter, we can find it another time but we need to go.

Dream Three- I dream that I am staying at a strange apartment with one of my coworkers. Her husband and my boyfriend are on a company trip together, so we are waiting for them to come home together. I don't remember much about this dream, just a scene where she is laying on the couch talking about how her husband texted her that they were having a lot of fun. I also remember being in a kitchen and getting a call from my boyfriend that they were on their way home, and to wait for them at the apartment b/c they were going to go straight to that apartment and not stop by work on the way home.

(I knew I was dreaming but I didn't want to change the dream) I had been put into a team of 10 people around my age (15-17) and we was to live and work together our whole lives. When we did something good we gained skill points (Like on a game. '+1 Focus' for example.) As I got to know the people I was with (Never seen them in real life) it started to become more fun. In the group I was in, I was chosen to be the team leader as on the first day I protected the the entire group from getting attacked by ginormous frogs. These occurred as someone tried to gain points my going searching in a huge lake to take out an enemy. On his way back many of these gigantic frogs followed him without him seeing and was about to attack us. I took charge and instead of attacking these powerful frogs, I got them to listen and fed them which befriended them. This was where I gained my first point 'Bravery +1'. At this time of the dream I saw a girl in my dream that I liked.

A few days later I was with that girl which made the dream 100x better for me as I had feelings for her. I have never loved anyone as much as I loved the girl in the dream. The problem was, she may not even exist...

In conclusion, the dream after awakening, I decided that it was similar to films such as 'divergent' and 'Maze Runner' which is probably why I loved it so much.
