I hardly remember the first part at all but I got flashes of me playing some sort of video game.

Moving forward, I was at a store sitting on a couch.
My Aunt, and possibly my girl cousin was with me.
At some point, my guy cousin (Quentin) climbs in through the window, feeling very sad after being rejected by this girl he asked out. We all sat around talking about it when suddenly a ladder appeared by the window.
The girl Quentin had just asked out started climbing through the window, but my aunt exclaimed that we didn't want her there, and she started begging to let her in.

The dream skipped forward and I started walking to the second half of the store with much more people in it.
It was very foggy, and extremely darkly lit.
On my way there, I crossed my mom.
I walked up to a freezer box and I grabbed what I thought to be a towel right next to a bathrobe, but right as I grabbed it, it turned into a pair of jeans.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

1st Dream:

It was sunny out, very sunny. I was standing on top of a hill, and looking out to a lot of rolling hills. The hills were green, but had a yellow tint to them, due to the sun being so bright. There was a beautiful blue lake about 200 yards to my right. Beyond the lake were gray mountains. On the lake there was a red colored, one story house, and it was the only thing on the lake. The house looked old, due to the fact that some areas of the house had paint chipped off.

The next thing I knew, I was right next to the house. There was a dirt road from where I was no standing at the houses front door, to where I was up on the hill. I looked around, and saw my cousins, and my grandpa from my moms side of the family. The mood was awkward, but happy at the same time. I haven't seen them in months (in real life), but I was happy to see them again.

I opened up the yellow door to the house. Inside the house, was all of the same furniture from my grandpa's house before. My grandpa actually owns a house on a lake that is the same color, only this wasnt the lake, my cousins dont like there, and the house is 10x's bigger than the one in my dream. There are four rooms that split off from the main area. The front of the house is all windows that are currently open. They over look the dock that is attached to the house, and on the lake. I walk into the first room on the left. There is one chair, so I sit down in it and look out one of the windows. "Wow, I can't believe he moved," I thought. I see my cousin walk in with a gray shirt, and she tells me via telekinesis that we have to go. I walk out side, and look at everyone again.

And that's the last thing I can remember from the dream. The rolling hills look exactly like I mentioned in my first DJ on this site.

2nd Dream:

This dream was really weird, because I can't remember ever having a dream like this before. The dream is centered around a girl, so I will just call her "J".

I was at a campground, I know I have had a dream here before. There was a lot of tree cover, and it was raining. I was about to take place in a race (running). I started running, and I was running down a mountain. (I watched this video before going to bed, and this is what the trail looked like: http://bit.ly/18hykg). As I was running, all I could think about was "J", I was now running on a tar road, and I passed a gas station, then I went back onto a trail in the woods. After running for quite a while, I ended up at my grandpa's house (not the one in the dream I had before, his real one). I remember taking a path to the left, instead of taking one to the right (like everyone else was doing). I somehow ended up winning, and I remember "J" was standing on my grandpa's deck and told me "I can't believe you won! You followed the same route as me, I guess I can give you another chance now". To win the race, you didn't just have to follow a strict path, you could take any route to get there, and I guess I followed the same one that "J" did.

It's weird, because in real life, me and "J" have never even been together.

Dreaming
Awake

I was in my friends house and my friend woke up and we all laughed at him so he went out to the balcony, we followed him out then me and my cousin decided to build a robot, My cousin had all the materials but we just needed somewhere to build it, so we decided his garage. We were walking to his house and we met the biggest nerd in our school, he was wearing a big blue jacket and a top hat and we asked him to help us, He told us he could help and supply us with something to build on,we said we cant wheel it around the garage though I whipped out a spanner but it was a chainsaw and it cut me open, everything turned black

I woke up and I moved my arm to behind my head but didn't open my eyes and quickly realized it was a dream and I had just woke up, I tried to DEILD but it failed cos of my arm movement

I woke up in some land in my other cousins body in the future, everything was snowy and empty, and there was a man stuck on glass buss stop, he smashed through it and came over, I remember looking at him and realizing he was the only man who could read or write. I picked up a piece of blue lined paper from behind a fence and gave him it and asked him to spell my name (still in grahams body) and he spelt out Sam (my real name) but when he read it out he said graham.. I looked at the letters and everything started fading to white..

I was lying in my bed and I woke up in an awkward position and tried to stay still for a few minutes in attempt to DEILD, I guess i'd finished my REM completely as it was 1pm and time for me to get up so my DEILD didn't work

I was sitting in my cousins house speaking to a guy called when i phoned my other friends and they invited me to go up to their house, We got ready and my dad told me he had found my drink stash.. (dont know why i was so worried because I'm allowed to drink?) then i got paranoid and went to the hall and pulled off a towel from the table to reveal lots of bottles of wine and beer, some where opened and empty.
We met my friends then we were walking to the park and we decided to pass into a farm to take pictures, we went in and the animals were really weird, they looked like giraffes with two heads, they were all fenced in a small area with a wooden fence with non-barbed wires. When we climbed the fence one of the girls said to the other one "your not beautiful, your only cute because you have a small face" and she kept repeating this to her, she seemed quite upset by this, I butted in and said it was lies. We carried on and took pictures of the animals and I took pictures of my friends standing next to the animals when the farmer came out, who happened to be the dad of my friend, and he asked me if i wanted to work on the farm, I said yes as he offered me £6.10 per hour. My friends went away to the park and said i've to meet them there later. I went inside the house and it was really jakey looking, the wall paper was all ripped and it was the same through-out most the house, I climbed the wooden stairs that kept creaking and there were 3 floors, I got changed and got my equipment and then went out to work.
(cant remember what I done as work)
I realized it was getting late so decided to find the farmer to ask if I can finish my shift and get payed, but he was out for dinner with his wife. I went to the house next door and it was my other friends and she offered me a lift to the park, we got in a bit massive golden hummer and she drove for a bit and I checked my phone and it was 12:00 at night, she then told me that my clock was wrong and i looked again and it was actually 20:20. Then she drove through a fence and into an alleyway, I said this isn't the park and she said sorry and reversed out and drove me to the park. I got there and everyone was there that I knew so I got out and spoke to a few people then the dream ended and I woke up...

I was in school in the music department and I overheard a classmate talking about how he woke up went and got a drink then woke up again for real, I explained to him that this was a false awakening then he climbed out the window and got in the back of a van.
My teacher came and started beating me with a big stick and said i had to prepare for my exam which is in a minute, she gave me my guitar piece I had to learn and it had 'V' and 'X' chords in it, i sight read most of it but couldn't do them, so snuck out of school and decided to go to my local boxing gym, that is 10 miles from the school, i got outside and started walking and it all of a sudden became a snow storm and i kept on walking, even though the snow was nearly as deep as me. I ended up at my cousins house where he was having a party, but i decided to go to the gym instead, i walked for a minute but turned round and went back to my own house and went on the computer to learn my guitar.

My house was a combination of my present home, my childhood home, and my Grandparents Victorian home. My GF was with me, and I got the impression other people were around the house but early in the dream I didn't see them. The visuals were vibrant and realistic.

I asked my GF to wait for me in the attic for some reason. She had just taken a shower and agreed happily. I went into the bathroom after she got out, and I could hear her moving around the floor above me. (Hearing people through walls is a dream sign: Dream 005 & Blackbird Flying) I went down stairs, which led to a weird mix of my Grandparents Victorian and my childhood home. My Mom was down there in a ground level green sitting room. It had a small curtained window with blue dusk light spilling out around the edges of the curtain. She was day dreaming or deeply in thought. We had small talk for a while.

I decided not to keep my GF waiting any longer, I entered my middle bedroom which actually exists in my present house. Inside the closet, there was an extremely old looking pull down latter. I climbed up the latter about 10ft into a small square attic with four shelves. On the shelves were lots of stuffed animals and books. I felt confused. I saw no where else to go. (Recall gets hazy.) From behind me someplace came a woman I took to be one of my cousins, but, never got a clear look at her and didn't recognize her. She pointed out a black and white brochure that recorded the history of one of my ancestors who's books were stored in this attic. There were many unusual sounding books (none of which I recall the exact name of). I remember thinking, a few of these books I would like to "check out" of this library. (Recall gets hazy.)

After looking at the brochure, the space in the attic had opened up. There was a series of rooms situated on the beams in the attic precariously. None had walls, some "rooms" required a leap over weak "fall through" points between beams. There was a group of family members up there with me by this point. None who I recognized or recall clearly. I was fascinated by the familiar location , and the dangerous areas of the attic. (Recall gets hazy.) I looked out an attic window and the view was consistent with a view from the roof of my Grandparents Victorian home (which does have an attic). *I saw two brown hawks flying away. One of them was wearing a strange pendant. I was worried how I "lost" my girlfriend. I was still watching the Hawks fly away from an old looking house about attic height. I heard a voice attempting to reassure me:

"Do not worry about her. Many of your family members were abducted from this attic, and returned." -I woke up.

The attic dream location is olden. There is no accessible attic space in my present home, or any home I have lived in.

I'm extremely happy to have logged current dreams that are consistent in ways with my dreams from over 10-years ago. I was wondering if a lot of our old dream themes get retired. Some of my dreams from the late 90's clearly featured elements from early childhood, but my recent dreams didn't seem too. The other problem was, when I did get the sense I had dreamed of an older theme, for some reason those dreams were more difficult to remember. I would recall only a vague impression of a distorted home.

Likewise, part of my goals for mapping dreamland included using my home as a gateway to old dream locations and repressed dream memories. In 11-months of efforts, this dream is the first with vivid recollection of childhood dream archetypes. Although I've had dream fragments of secret passages and elevators leading to weird but familiar dream locations.

(*) Birds flying is becoming a nightly dream sign. It's resulted in levels of lucidity in repeated dreams.

Totoro Encounter

I wake up to a phone call. It’s a little boy saying my dog is outside. I don’t have a dog, but I go check anyways.

Outside, a golden retriever is laying in my yard. His name is Rusty and in waking life he belongs to my friend Martin but in this dream, he belongs to my neighbor Bill. The kid got confused. I look for the boy but I see no one in sight, and the dog is just sleeping. He thought he was hurt.

I peep downwards. On the other side of the screen door is a little white totoro with a cute red cap on and little red mittens! I let him in.

He runs around for a moment and then I lift him up. Wait, this could be a trick. My anxiety kicks in and I think of what this could be: a weird listening device robot and someone is hearing on the other end what I am talking to it about? I put my finger in its mouth. It’s wet, and I feel a few baby teeth. I pat all around it, it’s fur is very very soft, like a shaved cat belly. It seems soft on the inside: no mechanical parts.



It doesn’t like this patting though and it hops out of my hands and runs under my couch. I’m sad because now I know it’s real, and I already fucked up our first meeting! I get on my hands and knees and peep under the couch and lure it out.

I hold the cute little thing in my hands. He takes his hat and mittens off and I cuddle him a little. I then remember my two cats. Shit. They smell it, and come from upstairs. He hops out of my hands and the chase begins. I feel so bad for him, I can’t catch either my cats or him. At one point, I see something ruffling under a big blanket and I think it’s my cat. I tap my foot to lure her out, and she jumps at my foot, clawing it. She feels bad and kind of walks around me in apology.

I find the totoro and scoop him up and run to the door. I am about to set him free when my cats come and think I put him out already, so they’re eager to leave. They both go out and the totoro is safe. I set him down. He begins to cry softly. I feel so bad and squeeze him lightly, apologizing.

He is very in the moment and stops crying when I cheer him up and he realizes there’s no cats. He doesn’t seem to be hurt. He scurries back under the couch with his hat and mittens. He keeps smiling at me someone even though his mouth isn’t really like that.

I false awaken. Both my cats are on my bed. A shimmer of light shines through my window and all three of us go and watch the beautiful sun set.

Both of my cats were on my bed sleeping all night. Maybe we shared these dreams

Fantasy Cousins

I am in a parking lot with my mom and my cousin Catie. We’re going to go somewhere, like Portland or something, even though it’s really late and it’s two hours there, two hours back. Catie says Patrick, her brother/my other cousin, has to come too. I like Patrick in waking life, but I scream really loud in my dream when I hear this. I don’t say anything, I’m just screaming.
Before we go to Portland, we have to stop at Heathers house for some reason and wait a long time. Catie and Patrick awkwardly sit in the living room. The house is very different than waking life. I peep into Heathers room and she’s sleeping. I go in.
She’s having a dream and she’s smiling so big. She’s talks too, occasionally. I’ve never seen anyone have such an in depth dream. I wake her and apologize because her dream sounded cool, but she said it just ended.

We all leave together. The scene changes to a very weird room, cramped and full of people. We seem to be “regular” people, while there are more “noble” people. One is an old man, very strict and military-esque while appearing wise and mystic as well. He has a long beard like a stereotypical Chinese guy. The other noble is a young girl. She’s giving everyone weird creatures to ride on. Patrick gets on back of one that kind of looks like a bear, but is clearly nocturnal for some reason and has jagged limb structures. I want to get on one, but the girl explains it’s only for males. Heather, Catie and I sit down, and I feel really mad.
The scene changes to just me and Patrick walking up this big hill. He starts to dance kind of, just moving his body in a strange rhythmic way. On the ground below us, ice forms as he dances in a beautiful pattern. I join, and the pattern becomes more intricate. We get to the top.


Fragment

I’m at school. Our classroom moves to the teachers secret library. It’s a tilting room that I’m afraid will tip over. I sit in the back, closest to the exit. The ceiling is extremely high and there are bookshelves that reach it, toppling with books. I hate myself because I keep saying absolutely everything on my mind, whether it makes sense or not. I blame it on being really tired.
Later, we go to a gym. The gym has a giant weird rotating machine in the middle. The teacher comes up to me with a paper I made, and instead of an essay we drew pictures. Mine had a wand made of a marijuana plant, and she said I shouldn’t be so risqué.


Fragment

My mom wants weed, so I call up my friend Dylan and ask about it. He says some obscure date, but my mom goes and visits his apartment anyway. Outside there is a sack of seeds and she thinks its hers. She goes in and he says it’s not, so we leave.


Fragment
I'm shopping with Heather and Tyler. In one store, Heather buys me a jacket. In another, we all look at a display case of jewelry. There is a watermelon mood ring that Tyler wants. Heather wants some earrings (her ears aren't pierced), and I want a little hand clasp with an eye on the palm.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in my cousins house. There were a lot of things from a festival where you had to give an object related to a booth if you wanted to enter the booth, but they gave you stuff if you did. There was mostly food and I ate a lot of things.

After a while my stomach was full but my aunt and uncle left for the festival and I ate some more. When they came back they had nougat and I ate that too.

I had a dream that a lot of my extended family was coming over to visit. All my extended family lives pretty far away, so it was a pretty big deal. When they showed up, we all got in our cars to go drive someone else. We raced on the highways for a while, and arrived at our destination. One of my friends from school was there, and he began to make out with on of my cousins. I was a little weirded out, but I didn't care too much.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was a prisoner in a dark circular stone room in a magical tower. In the centre there was some sort of glowing blue energy that allowed people to teleport to the entrance of the tower, but it wouldn't work for me. I don't remember the next part very well but I think I escaped with the help of some girl.

My cousin A was surfing on the beach.

I saw my cousin S on a news report. At first I didn't realise it was him and thought it was his brother A. He was really good and won the world championship (I saw this on the TV).

I was at the beath with my family and we met S, a friend of his and some other guy. I was very thirsty.

The dream shifted again and I was in a buss. M and T were behind me and wouldn't leave me alone. I think they were pinching me.

1/16/11 - Realization
Dream Non-dream Lucid

I had to babysit two of my cousins last night, and my aunt and uncle didn't come home until about midnight. My uncle drove me home even though it was late, but I've had to sleep over before because of how late they can be. Enter dream scenario.

I was at my uncle's house, and he had just returned home. He told me it was 3 am, and that he'd have to take me home in the morning. I was a little confused. I remembered being in the car with him earlier, and wondered why he couldn't have taken me home then. Suddenly I realized that he already had taken me home, and that I was in my own bed, asleep. I basically spazzed out. I ran downstairs, and outside. It felt a little cold, because I'd been expecting it to be, but it really wasn't much different than the temperature inside. I knew for sure then that I was dreaming. I guess I was still a little shocked, because I woke up immediately.

I wish I'd remembered a lucid task or something! Maybe tonight...?

1/8/10 - Water Slide (fragment)
Dream Non-dream Lucid

Something about a water park, I remember that some of my younger girl cousins were with me on an epic water ride, with a few drops so steep they were straight down. Apparently because I had no bathing suit, I went topless, which was super awkward.

That's all I remember.

I am winner (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in a hypermarket called prica (it has another name now but it still had that one on the dream) with J and Jv. There were some ps3 move games outside (I've never played them but that was the idea) and J started playing one. Then I decided to play the same game on a different machine. I had to do a lot of kicking in the game and Jv began bothering me so I told him togo away. I paused the game and I saw Nic, who was looking for Nés so I told him where he was. J got a score of 62 in his game. Then I saw Ul, but I decided to ignore him. I finished my game (I remember having to move the controller following some arrows, sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly) with a score of 155, which was still not very high, although I'd played on hard mode.

Above the influence (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was on a sort of school trip with my brother. My cousins were also there although they had come on their own. Then I met a bad guy who told me that I had to search a mine for this really valuable gem in exchange for him paying some debts I had. I went into the mine with my brother and I found a diamond and a red gem along the way, but these were not the gem that the bad guy was looking for. I kept following the passageways that had a sign reading "start" but I didn't reach anywhere.

After a while I reached a crossroad and my cousins were there. There were two paths to choose from, one that read "with sex" and another one that was a shortcut without sex. My cousins went to the sex one and my brother wanted to go there but I told him that we didn't have any time for that.

I was playing real life cod on a city like map, but then the map became cold and I headed for a waterfall. I saw my highschool running coach then I was getting washed away by a wave in a neighborhood and saw my uncle surfing, and the twins just hanging around.

phase 2:at school parking lot in a minivan with Brian J, Druggies are outside the car a few spaces away in a circle and moshing air and stomping around randomly?

Ok so i don't forget it I'm going to write whatever I could remember quick.

There was this game we were playing with a giant jabba the hut like frog, in a forest grassy like place but it was big and wide and it resembled the corner part of a ralphs next to my house (this is the end of my dream that I remember, there was also another place but I forgot where it was), and it had the intersection of a vertical street next to my old school and the gate at the side was just like my old school, and the horizontal street was the street in front of the ralphs, and the houses were the exact same but the street posts were a bit more elegant.

Ok the game was like, there was a bunch of big tree branches, huge and long and one of them was enchanted and you had to kill jabba with it, I had 4 other friends with me, one of them was clearly my cousin, the other one I sort of remember which was my cousins friend, and 2 other people I forgot, all together it was 2 boys and 2 girls (my cousin is the girl), plus me (so 5 people).

Jabba also had 4 guards, 2 knights and 2 ogre like monsters, and you couldn't kill them unless you had these 4 knight swords, the knight swords were supposed to be used by my 4 friends, and I was supposed to use the enchanted tree branch against jabba which would finish the game (but usually the game just started over lulz, how fun).

Here are some of the mechanics like, jabba was invisible for one thing, he would jump around places all around us and we couldn't even find the enchanted stick, at least I couldn't, and his knights/ogres weren't helping much either, since they couldn't die, so it was beginning to piss me off, and before this game (the last one before I woke up), I had already somehow gotten to hit jabba enough times with the enchanted stick that the gate opened and I followed the road (which was an exact copy of the streets around my house) towards this place that had like a little monument, small, with 4 swords, and I got them and ran back to my friends, gave it to them and they killed the knights, then I took the enchanted stick and hit jabba for one last time and killed him winning the game until my dream restarted lol, my and my friends had some chit chat also.

Ok so this last one before I woke up, jabba was more invisible and he kept taunting me saying oh you can't catch me blah blah blah and for some reason I was blind and I was using my 'inner memory' of the surroundings (basically my memory of the dream itself) and I created some 6th sense surrounding, it was cool as fuck, but I had an extremely hard time getting to do anything and jabba and his knights were beginning to creep me and my friends out and we kept on going like omg what are we going to do but his knights didn't do much since they weren't what my dream was really focusing on.

Ok, after spinning around with random sticks that weren't enchanted with my 6th sense vision that was basically a black n white contrast view of my dream, I finally got my normal vision back and I got so pissed that I ran out the gate (which already had a nice lot of spectators watching our little game), and I saw one of my friends who is asian and her name is min jin and I clearly remember it was her, and I told her to hold my hand and strut on the street saying we're going to go get the swords anyway because I was pissed, but then I don't know what happened and I woke up and was pissed so I fell back asleep and I was at the same exact place with no change, except it was like I fell out of my dream and it continued without me.

I saw my friend min jin outside the gate and a couple other people which I remember one is another one of my cousins friends, one is the friend that was part of our group (the 4 people) and min jin coming back with plastic bags of swords, and it seemed to me that those swords were all fake except the last person had the real crystal swords (which I had described in my dream to myself earlier so I basically conjured up a better defined sword), and I was like yes woohoo, so I ran back to my cousin and told her we got the swords, but then I looked around and saw on all of those elegant light posts/street posts there were 2 sort of slots like the ones you have on things that have swords in places idk, and they all had swords in them and I was like shit all that trouble (but it was funny oh well) and for some reason I went around instead of going and finishing my dream/game and crossed the street to the other side with one of the elegant street posts and I clearly remember the street name was green and said 'Verdugo' (but it wasn't right lol) and I tried to climb up but it was too high and long and then I heard my cousin go 'careful that's not our property you might get arrested or something there is a cop here' oh and btw there was also a stupid cop watching us as well and I saw his big long motorcycle that I tried to jack but it was too big for me to ride, and I was scared he might see me trying to take a sword out of someone else's 'property' (supposedly) and arrest me, so I went and waited in front of the sidewalk like a good pedestrian, so I don't get run over lol and I looked to both my sides (except my left side wasn't too clear there was a big car on that side that sort of blurred the view from the left) (oh and it was a nice cadillac if that makes a different, a big black cadillac) so I couldn't really see very well but the right side I could see well like 2 blocks, but cars kept passing so I was scared to pass but then it seemed open to me at some point so I passed and then the rest I don't really remember, but I do remember waking up after that....

....did I get run over at the end of my dream? I didn't even get to kill jabba and his knights, damn it, all that trouble for nothing! But it was a very fun dream and my dreams are always fun and exciting like this so I'm going to post them here from now on each day so I don't forget Hope you guys liked it lol! Hope it wasn't too boring, oh if I was a good drawer I would probably draw up some illustrations of it as well, heck, make a movie!

Also keep in mind I never actually saw jabba, it's very weird, it's like my mind thought of him subconsciously, made me think of him consciously (conscious in dream rules or something), but with sight I never saw him, but I heard him talk to me and I guess I created a mental image of him within my dream (even though the whole thing is mentally created...) err :O! I'm only a teen by the way, I don't know much about this stuff, but my dreams are usually long and fun I don't even have to be lucid for something to happen or change, it's weird but I'm sure I'm not the only one who can do that lol.

Also some illustrations:



Also if you had ever played KH2, the knights (and the swords stand kind of) in my dream looked EXACTLY like the ones in KH2 beast's castle in the hallways and stuff, (before they transform into like heartless lol). I can't find a picture from google so sorry but if you do play the game or seen it whatever then you would imagine !

Edit: I'm going to write their names down so I don't forget (surprised I haven't forgot by this point): Suzy, Emin, Anthony, Yohans, Min Jin.
