Had my first lucid experience tonight! fuckyeah! It only lasted for a split second, but I'm 100% sure I was momentarily lucid. I got so excited that I woke myself up, unfortunately. It started as a me waking up, but when I moved it felt like I was dragging my spirit out of my body, like I was splitting myself. So I did a breathing RC, and it worked! So I went from a dream into a false awakening into lucidity. Awesome. It felt like an out-of-body experience. I also had two dreams exciting, vivid dreams tonight. The first was inspired by Amnesia: The Dark Descent. I was trapped in a room filled with water together with someone. Don't know who it was. We had to defend again oncoming waves of small black creatures that tried to get into the room and kill us. This was done by either barring up the entrances to delay them, or kill them. I remember barricading two of the pipes leading into the room, and that I had a handgun. None of the creatures actually got into the room, but I remember that if I killed them and survived the waves, I got cash that I could use to buy weapons and gear from a CS-styled menu. The other dream was awesome. I was in an old friend of mines place, Anjelina, with a friend of mine and two friends of hers. We were talking and annoying eachother mildly, when one of her friends got bored and went over to me and my friends and took off her top. Her breasts were a bit malformed, like the nipples were flat, and she said that it was due to some disease. The dream then fastforwarded to me getting a haircut, and anjelina coming with me. She let me drive, for some reason. My friend disappeared from the dream at this point. Once I arrived at the salon, which was located near a soccerfield, Anjelina was gone, and I met a friend of hers there that asked if I was attending the lulapalooza tonight. I said that I'd be at Anjelinas place, yeah, and then kept moving. There were a lot of people there. Once I got into the saloon, I got in there at the same time as a crowd of people. We all raced towards the sole stylist, and I got there first. He sighed, and asked me what I wanted. I apparently had to go do something in the basement here in order to get my haircut, but I don't remember much of it. I then drove back to Anjelina's place, and hung out there for a while. I got a new phone while I was there, and I remember having trouble moving the SIM-card. I then suddenly became aware that something had been stolen from them. I got in a car with anjelina, and a carchase ensued. We eventually recovered the stolen thing (which I THINK was a genetically manipulated child that was explosive, but I'm not sure) and as I was about to get in the car to drive back, they told me to take another car instead. I opened the door to that car, and saw that it had 3 seats in the front. I somehow knew that Anjelina's two friends would ride with me, and that they wouldn't leave me alone during the drive at all, and I sighed heavily about it.
I dreamed three dreams tonight, two of which I remember. The first started with me and a friend on a bus. Infront of us was a glass window though, and on the other side were seats angled towards us. There were two girls sitting there. As I was talking with my friend, they started sexually taunting and teasing us. After a while, one of the girls got off the bus and another took her place. She had jet black hair and black colour all over her face. My friend said he knew her. Jessica was her name, I believe. They kept taunting and teasing for a while, and then I was transported a bit further in time with another friend, when we saw what I think was her dead body. I don't relaly remember, but I know that we encountered her again, and he said that he knew her aswell, that he used to eat dinner at her place sometimes, but never really liked her that much. The dream ends after that. The next dream I find myself walking on the road to a house I used to live in 5 or 6 years ago. To my left were a bunch of houses, but in the field to my right was a bunch of circus people practising their performance. I kept walking by and looking at them, when I siddenly starter percieving them as a threat. I walked home, and met up with some friends. We had apparently decided that it was time we gained some powers, and there were runes that you could somehow inscribe onto your hands or head that gave these powers. I remember wanting the air rune, but someone else had already taken it, so I asked if the holy or darkness runes were taken. Turns out they were free, so I chose the darkness rune. I then decided to use it, even though my friends told me not to. When I used it, a black guitar appeared in my hand. I somehow knew this was a weapon, and as I swung it, a pair of black cylinders folded themselves out from the top of the guitar. After this, the dream ended. I know there was a third dream, but I don't recall it at the moment.
Last few days I've had a beer or two before bed, so my recall has been poor and as such I've held off on writing journals. But I figured I'd write down the dreams I remember anyway. I remember one per night, but I'm aware of 2-3 per night. First is a dream I had where I was hanging out with a friend from old times. We were walking through a forest and talking. It was winter outside. We came upon a machine of sorts, commented on it, and then kept walking. We came upon an old-styled house. A farm of sorts with large fields around it. I remember being about to walk to it, but then I suddenly started flying. I remember it very vividly, the whole feel of it. I see the forest from up above, and the sensation of flying was great. I remember I justified being able to fly due to holding two wings of sorts, one in each hand. It was thanks to these that I was able to fly at all. I then flew over to a more urban area, where I met up with a lot of people from my early years of grade school. People I've not thought about for years and years. It was pretty interesting, they all greeted me as old friends. I spent some time with them, then decided to fly away again to pick some berries of sorts, but changed my mind midway and flew over to some large apartment buildings. After this, I woke up. Next night I vaguely remember dreaming that I was a guest at some dudes house. I mildly accociated his appearnce with Doctor Stetman from Starcraft 2. I asked him if he had played duke nukem forever yet, and we talked a bit about that for a while. Then I remember the dream transitioning into me being Duke Nukem and shooting at stuff with various weapons and jumping off high buildings without getting hurt. Tonight I dreamed about coming to a dark hotel with a friend. I remember that we came there for a purpose, but that we had to wait. I figured that while I was waiting, I may aswell earn some money, so I went upstairs to see if there was anyone needing any help. I stumbled upon a guy needing help cashing in debt, so I helped him smash down a door. Once inside, I gathered something up while the dude kept the resident busy. Once done, I was given a 10000 dollar monopoly bill. I went back downstairs and handed it to the bartender, telling him that an old man with a strange velvet hat had given this to me, and told me to talk to him. The bartender got an understanding look on his face and mentioned that the old man was part of some high-society family. He mentioned the name of the family aswell, but I don't remember it. He then gave me 1400 crowns, which had me a bit puzzled. I had figured that 10000 in the old mans currency would've been worth more. I didn't think much more of it at the time, and ordered a drink. The bartender then told me that they were about to host a huge party, and that I should stick around. Everything around me was dimly lit, and there were a lot of tables around. Suddenly, the party started and the place flooded with people. I remember seeing a lot of people from school, and they all urged me to tag along with them. I politely declined, and walked up a few flights of stairs to find a friend of mine. He was sitting with some other people playing some strange game involving pokémon cards. I sat and watched them for a while, but the game itself never made any sense to me. One of the cards was a Charizard. The area around them was concrete grey, and they were sitting on the floor. There were 4 of them, but only 2 i recognized. The whole dream had a bit of an intregue feel to it, as if I was waiting for something specific to happen. After this I woke up. While waking up in my bed trying to keep the memories of my dream in my head, I dreamed something else, but I never managed to commit the images to my memory and forgot all about it.
Had a dream that I was taking a bus somewhere, and I had some friends taking another bus just infront of me. Then the bus I was on slid off the road and onto a nearby field. It didn't roll or anything, it just slid off. I remember feeling paniced at the time, but it wore off when I realize we were alright. After we arrived at the station and reunited, we went to a library. There we found a piano, and my friend turned out to be a really good piano player (something he's not in real life). We looked through some books, and we discovered they also had games you could lend. I found a stash of old nintendo 64 games, and found an expansion to a zelda game that I had never played. I remember the cover was blue, and that it specifically was an expansion, not a stand alone game. Next thing I remember is being inside the game. There were some puzzles I had to solve, and there was a lot of water. I also met a girl there that I hung out with. I don't know who she was. Most of the women in my dreams tend to be non-specific. Then all of a sudden I wasn't in the game anymore, and I was apparently at this girls house. I remember being outside it first, watching something, but then going inside. She had to go somewhere for a while, and I spent some time with her younger sister. I think we... either looked at different colours on the wall, or painted colours on a wall while waiting for her to come back. That part was really weird. The whole scene upon remembering it feels like it had meaning to it. I don't know why. I don't really remember anything else from that dream anymore. I remembered a lot more details earlier today, but I ended up writing the journal really late, so I forgot most of it. I know I also dreamed something else before that, but I've forgotten it by now.
Tonight I had two long dreams. I woke up after the first one, wrote down some key words to make sure I remember it, and went back to sleep. It's been crazy hot lately, with temperatures in my apartment going up to 27-28 in the evenings, so I'm sleeping without covers on nowdays. It's just too hot. Anyway, the first dream was essentially my brain creating a new episode of Dr House. I was taken to a prison where I was set to step in for a drug abusing ego-centric doctor who was currently in rehab. I remember making snide remarks about this to someone, but there wasn't anyone there whom I recognize. I don't even remember seeing any faces, just that there were actually people there. Apparently, I was to take care of two patients whom had been making the life of the previous doctor a living hell. I decided to give them some of their own medicine and put my desk outside of their cells and started making constant, annoying noises in order to frustrate them. Eventually we ended up in a shouting match, which I seem to recall winning. Either that, or someone walked in and told us to stop. Not sure of which. I woke up after that. The second dream started with me arriving somewhere with a bag of alcohol. There was a bottle of bacardi in there, 4 of my favourite ciders and I think there was something to mix the bacardi with aswell, but I'm not sure of that. I'm certain about the ciders and the bacardi, though. Then the dream suddenly transitioned into me being a lion. I don't remember much after that, but I remember that something happened, and that I had to go back somewhere, and passed by the bag of alcohol from before that I had apparently dropped. Weird, I've been dreaming a lot of dreams lately where I am different things. This is probably the first similarity I've noticed between dreams. Interesting!
Dreamed the kind of dream where you feel like you are watching a movie. The dream was about a girl, an assassin. The enviroment was futuristic, and she had (among other things) a lightsaber of sorts as a weapon. While on a mission, she was hit by something which supposedly ripped away a piece of her soul. The dream then continued to describe her escape from the complex where she was attacked, and how she kept trying to figure out how to "heal" herself. Supposedly, there was someone or something that could help her in a nearby forest, and she went there (apparently now with friends). Along the way she stopped by some kind of shop, but I don't remember what was inside it. I think I woke up after this. Obviously, there were a lot more details along the way. I remember seeing a girl sneak into a room, and I remember spying on some kind of medical examining area. Other than that, it's pretty bland. What I mainly remember from the dream is the intense feeling of desperation, which by itself is rather interesting. Gonna go to bed early tonight, get a real nights sleep for a change.
I had three dreams tonight. The first one I was with my dad, and he was attempting to heat up something that was outside our house by frying eggs. Don't ask me how it makes sense. I remember wondering what the hell he was doing, but then hearing some new music I've never heard before (my brain identified it as Daft Punk, but it wasn't), and I went on some kind of trip trying to figure out what it was. I was then suddenly inside a gameworld, with graphics styled like unreal 1. There was some kind of asian girl there, and it was a mountain-type area. I remember there being fireballs of some sort, and a stone that we kicked around. There was also a cave in the mountain, which I walked into. Inside it was a bunch of creatures, I think my head told me they were ants, but they quite obviously weren't as they seemed intelligent. I then got out of the cave and found myself in room with a bed and insect-proof windows (the kind with a net behind them that you can open). I went to look out the window because there was something outside I really wanted to see, but there was a wasp on the inside, so I backed off. Then a friend of mine came and we talked a little, and then we went back to the window because we thought the wasp was gone. It then came back, and my friend backed off. I stayed there, and suddenly a kitten appeared between the window and the insect net. After a little while, we got it out of there and it turns out to be my friends kitten. I went back to the window once again, and there was now a huge spider there. Easily the size of my hand. It had an orange patter on it, and was quite bright in general. I told my friend about it, and then looked back only to find yet another huge spider. This one was brown and hairy. That's about all I remember. I woke up shortly after that.
Been a long time since I attempted to write down and recall my dreams now. I've been stressed and busy with lots of things that I've finally sorted out. Most of them, anyway. And with the issues out of the way, I decided to start trying to build up dream recall again. So, without further adeau: Tonight I dreamed a few fragments, and a long dream. The fragment is just me walking through a guitar store, except all the guitars had broken strings and they weren't tuned properly. I think there was also another dream fragment of me being a part of some kind of capture-the-area game, where you and your team had to take over areas by pushing a button in the middle of them. The long dream was very different. I remember meeting a girl somewhere and falling in love with her. We wandered around a lot and talked, although I don't remember about what. I was at her place a few times, and she was at mine. At some point, I remember getting a ride home by her and her parents, and as I was getting out of the car and saying thanks to them and telling the girl I'd see her later, she gave me a smile and got out of the car with me. The girl was definitly a student of sorts, and so was I. I remember us studying together. Later on in my dream, she disappeared to the future mysteriously, and I tried to figure out how and why. Eventually I somehow got a hold of a phone that could call the future, which I used to talk to her. I remember talking to her inside of a broken down, moldy old office building. She told me over the phone that she wanted me to get her a cup of coffee, so I went to the coffee machine that was in a nearby room. Everything around me was wet, there was furniture and broken down old desks. The coffee machine was operational though, but it was out of coffee so all I got was hot water. I didn't put the cup into the machine fast enough though (actually I'm not sure if I ever intended to) so the hot water went down into a sink of sorts that didn't drain. So I scoped up some water out of that instead. I told her that there was no coffee, and she asked me if it had tea instead. I told her that this wasn't the time for tea, to which she responded that there was never a wrong time for tea (kudos to her for that). I then told her that I meant that there was no tea. Then the dream fast-forwards to me talking to an old friend of mine, who seemed to be hiding something. I knew he had been at the place where the girl disappeared at, because I had found his backpack there. Supposedly, he had hidden a clue somewhere, but he wouldn't tell me why. I kept pressuring him, and eventually he told me that he had hidden something in a nearby building, about 9 kilometers away. I think it was kilometers anyway, i remember the number 9 very vividly. I went to the place, and I THINK I found a time machine there, but it wasn't working. That's about all I remember at the moment.
