lucid

I "wake up." Everything is just a little too dark, so I do a RC. Sure enough, I'm dreaming. "Cool! " I think. I proceed to say, "Clarity now!"

Instead of popping into focus, my dream (yes the dream) begins to shake. With the shaking comes an intense drowsiness.

"WTF?" I think. I do another RC. Yup. Dreaming 100%.

But, something about this dream feels very off. This feeling is very weird, it wasn't like something inside the dream was off, but something about the dream. I knew I was dreaming, I knew I was actually just lying in bed, I knew I could do anything, but there was something. That something scared me.

I realize that I have to change the dream scene. Fast.

I think of a beautiful, glowing, blue underground palace. With this in mind, I spin around.

Instead of exploring an amazing palace, I wake up. I do a RC. Yup. Awake.

I am playing Minecraft. Well, living it, not playing it. I am literally inside the world. I think suddenly, "Duh, I'm dreaming ." I plug my nose to make sure of this. Yup!

I don't feel any different. No "pop" of clarity. No sense of freedom. No excitement. Nothing. My sense of touch doesn't even work.

I get up off the ground and fly. This is easy, seeing as flying is a natural thing in Minecraft. But again, I don't feel any exhilaration in the act of flying...

I remembered people saying it was fun doing math inside a dream so I try that out. I end up saying, "2,4,6,8. Hm."

Not very fun.

As I'm flying around, I try and manipulate the generation of the world. I try making mountains form. Nope. Didn't work. I see a river and dive in, thinking about performing a RC. I dive underwater, and breathe. Yup, still dreaming.

I try twirling around to change the dream scene. (Who wants to dream about Minecraft?) I twirl around, and end up in another Minecraft world. I try about 5 times, and end up losing my lucidity.

On the last try, I end up sitting at my house in front of the fireplace, reading a magazine. "Hey," I think. "I could use this in my dreams!"

I wake up.

How lame.
