Non-lucid
I was homeless, so at night I'd break into houses and sleep in people's guest rooms. Some nights they'd find me, and I'd normally have to hurriedly leave immediately after that. Sometimes when that'd happen, they would care for me.
I met many different people with different lifestyles: A pregnant lady with a huge pet snake, an eccentric lady with a huge house, and the list goes on.
One night, I creeped into a house, and went into a room with a closed door. A baby was soundly sleeping in a cradle, and I definitely wasn't going to change that. I turned around and saw a camera looking at me. I quietly, but quickly, went out the door, and looked down the stairs. A tall lady with wavy hair is watching TV and talking on the phone in the living room below me. Her back is to me. I panic, and hurry into the next room a little less than silently. I hear a muffled "Hold on, I-I heard something..." through the door. I crawl under the huge bed and hope she doesn't find me.
I hear the door open, and she's still on the phone. "I know I heard something." She whispered into it. I could very faintly hear the person she was talking to in the quiet room. "Someone's in here, I know it." She bends down and looks under the bed, to find me, curled up, staring at her, and terrified. She ends the call immediately, her mouth hanging open.
"Hey now," I whisper showing my hands to show her I have no weapons, "I don't want to hurt you or your baby... I just need a place to sleep. I promise that's it."
Then, I wake up.

I had another lucid dream last night. I'm super happy about that. I seem to be back on a roll again.

I woke up at 3:00. At first I thought my alarm had awoken me and that it was actually 5:00. I was mentally preparing myself to get up, when I glanced down at the clock and was pleasantly surprised to see that I actually had time for a WBTB.

I really felt my awareness was really good these days, so I was fairly sure that I didn't need to do a WILD to get a lucid dream. I was sure that something would trigger lucidity once in a dream.

Dream:

I was involved in doing something in this very large building. I recall isn't very good for the beginning of this dream. At some point I needed to use the restroom. I left the group of people I was with and found a restroom. I walked in. It was a huge room with a very high vaulted ceiling. Very fancy. I entered the first stall. Someone had gone poop and hadn't flushed it. How gross. I moved on to another stall. Same thing. It seemed strange to me that this beautiful very clean looking restroom was full of unflushed toilets. Things like that happened all the time in my dreams. Hmmm....this was a dream sign for me. What if this were a dream? It felt pretty real. Yet, I knew I was doing so well lately at catching my dream signs. I needed to at least do a reality check. I decided to try to float.

Well, what do ya know. I was suddenly flying up to the high vaulted ceiling. Nice. Another lucid dream.

I flew out of the bathroom and found myself in a courtyard full of people. I decided to find someone to fly with. I landed next to a guy. He looked to be in his mid to late 30's. He was nice looking with sandy blond hair that had some curl and either green or hazel eyes. He looked like an outdoorsy kind of guy with tan skin that was a little rough and some brow wrinkles. I asked him if he would fly with m,e and he said he would love to.

But before we could take off I felt the dream fade. I was mad. This was way to short for a LD.

I laid in bed for a second, not sure if I was really awake of if this was just a false awakening. I then willed myself back in the dream.

The next thing I knew I was back in the courtyard. Yes. I did it.

I looked around and couldn't find the guy I had been with. I was a little disappointed. But another guy caught my eye. He was tall with dark hair that was styled strangely, coming to a point in the front on one side. He looked to be in his mid to late 20's and was a bit over weight. He was wearing a cape and I figured he was into sci fi or Dungeons and Dragons or something like that. I asked him to fly with me. But he said something like, "If you think you can get a guy like me in the air, you must be crazy." I wasn't sure if he meant that he really didn't want to fly or if he didn't think I was capable to getting him in the air.

But before I could find out I woke up.....for real.

Last night I had back to back lucid dreams throughout my entire REM cycle. This is first time I’ve been lucid every dream. I remembered 7 long lucid dreams in detail, and 3 other fragmented. I also had 1 OBE style dream with vibrations, where I almost made it out. I simply observed what the dream characters were doing, kept my lucidity under wraps, and then examined how they reacted when they figured out I was lucid. I’ll describe two of the dreams, because I found a new way (at least to me), to keep an ‘exposed’ lucid dream from ending.

I was at work in my office. There was one problem, I was only wearing briefs. This fear of being exposed in public has given me many lucid dreams. I even had a wedgy, which I couldn’t seem to fix. I knew I was dreaming, but I didn’t want to venture out into the work area half naked. It just felt wrong. I stared out the door watching dream characters interact with each other, and carry on busily. Suddenly somebody walked by my office that I recognized. I shouted his name out so he would come and visit with me. He didn’t come. I shouted his name again, but this time two fellows dressed in suits came. Crap, I recognized one of them from a previous lucid dream. In a previous lucid dream this character grabbed onto me and wouldn’t let go, and told me to tone it down, because people are starting to notice. Anyway, I walked out of my office by a couple of feet, and told him, “I was just calling for this guy to come into my office, because I’m half naked, and I need a bath robe.” That sounds pretty lame I agree, but that’s all I could think of saying. These guys knew I was lucid. The one fellow looked like he was about to blow a gasket. To calm him down, I asked him, “Do you have some advice for me?” He seemed shocked by the question, and didn’t know what to say. There was this awkward silence. He then said, “Yeah, get back into your office!” I turned around and walked back into the office with these two guys following me. I figured I would smooth talk him by complimenting his suit jacket, so I said, “That is a real nice suit jacket!” I was actually thinking to myself how weird his jacket was, because it was white and covered in what looked ancient symbols, which made no sense whatsoever. I noticed out of the corner of my eye, the second guy slipping in behind me. Suddenly I went from a perfectly vivid, clear dream, to abruptly fading, and then to being awake. What the heck happened? I was perfectly calm, and there was no reason for me to wake.

I was lying in bed thinking about this lucid dream. Why did that guy slip in behind me? Why did my dream end after these dream characters figured out I was lucid? It then occurred to me that maybe this guy that slipped in behind me somehow influencing me to wake. I then decided to do a test, and see what happens if I quickly turn around 180 degrees, the instant I feel my lucid dream fading (see who’s behind me). I then went back to sleep to give this a try, using the WBTB technique. I went into a lucid dream and declared to a room full of people I was lucid, in an effort to test my theory. Within 10 seconds I could feel my dream fading quickly. I turned 180 degrees and came face to face with a man who was standing right behind me, inches away! The dream character looked totally shocked when I caught him. My lucidity then came back perfectly clear. I then saw somebody else try to scoot in behind me, so I instant transported myself so my back was to the wall. This seemed to work, but everybody was now staring at me. I decided to quickly leave the room, to see if I could salvage this dream, but I woke up before I got out the door. I’ve caught these dream creepers behind me before, and I’m starting to think they’re somehow waking me after I’ve blown my lucidity cover. Or maybe I’m just creating my own dream consequences because I believe this to be the case. In the meantime I’ll just be quietly lucid until I want the dream to end, then I’ll have some fun.

What I found interesting about this dream was that, despite being a non-lucid, some of the DCs had a strange attitude towards me.

I was to meet at 10 am with a group of people for an excursion (which we were really going to do in real life the day after I had this dream). I was the first to arrive at the meeting point, but I had to go back home to get a couple of things. Once some of the people started arriving, I excused myself and went back to my house.

I was almost there when I found a girl who went to my school when we were little. She is a year or two younger than me and has a twin sister, but I have never really been friends with either of them. She stopped beside me and asked me what my name was, because she had seen me before but didn't remember. Without hesitating, I told her my first and last name. Then, she said something like "she's the dreamer! My sister won't believe me when I tell her". This should have triggered lucidity, but I don't remember having become lucid. I was just taken aback and went on doing my thing.

I went into my house, got a bottle of water for the excursion and came back out. Then I remembered I needed sleeping pills, which I actually only take when I am very nervous and can't sleep, and so I headed to the Chemist's. While I was in the waiting line, two women were having a heated argument about politics, but I wasn't paying attention. When I got to the chemist and asked him for the pills, I was surprised at his question: "do you dream much?". I answered: "of course I do, I easily remember three to four dreams a night". The people in the waiting line looked at me in desbelief and started whispering at each other. Again, this didn't trigger lucidity. Then, the chemist gave me a small "notebook" (it wasn't really a notebook, but I can't come up with any better name) and on the cover you could read "Dream Journal". He said I could enter a dream recall contest. I started laughing because I thought I could only fit one or at most two days worth of dreams in that tiny notebook and that it was pointless. I went out of the Chemist's still laughing.

The dream went on for a while, but there weren't any more strange behaviours from DCs. I thought it was interesting because I had never seen any DC behave like this. Somehow it reminded me of the way some of them behave in the movie Inception.

I presented an excerpt from this dream three days ago in the Task of The Month for March 2014 thread, which, if you're in the right month, you'll notice has won me my luxurious wings. (Though I don't plan on letting a month go by without completing at least one task-of-the-month from now on, so you should probably be seeing wings above my avatar regardless. ) But now, I've gotten around to posting the story of the entire dream from that night, starting from when I turned lucid.

I was in my bedroom. I've noticed that this is a recurring pattern - a lot of my lucid dreams are either triggered when I'm my dream bedroom or I'm immediately transported to my bedroom in the dream after becoming lucid. I never see my body in the bed; but then, I don't look there much. I also have a higher tendency to become lucid in areas in relative proximity to my bedroom and/or my apartment in general, which I suppose makes sense, with me performing reality checks in places I know in real life and spending most of my time and going to bed in my bedroom in general.

Also, most of the time when I become lucid in my bedroom, that bedroom is dark. Either lights-off-and-curtains-drawn-in-the daytime dark, lights-off-and-curtains-drawn-in-the-evening/twilight dark or lights-on-but-fairly-dim dark. In this dream, it was the former of these cases. I didn't bother to turn the lights on.

Side note: Another thing that I've noticed in my lucid dreams - the proper ones that are clear, fairly long and provide me with some degree of control - is that, without me directly thinking about it, my course of action in the given lucid dream will follow the sort of course of action I was thinking about and wanted to undertake that time before I went to sleep. Before 'Flight of the Oneironaut' (a previous dream journal entry of mine), I wanted to have a lucid dream where I explored different dream scenes and did cool things, in contrast to the lucid dream I'd previously had, where I felt that I hadn't done enough. And this is just what ended up happening. I suppose autosuggestion and dream incubation really are important in terms of thinking about how the dream will go!

Before this dream, I instead wanted to spend a long time in one dream scene, not going anywhere and instead just focusing on the lucid dream, working on making the scene as vivid as possible, entering as high a state of consciousness as possible, experimenting with the senses and just taking it all in. However, I also really wanted to complete a task-of-the-month before March 2014 was over. And that's just the course of action I took in this dream.

I looked around and in front of me, mainly to the left side of my room. I looked at the shelves of books that are present above the drawer in my real bedroom and that are the most detail-filled part of my room, hence my wanting to explore it. Another thing that I've noticed in the lucid dreams wherein I'm in my bedroom is that my bedroom is (probably) never actually structured just like my real bedroom and doesn't have the same things in it; but I never notice this until the dream is over. Looking over the books piled up on a low shelf, where my stacks of school notebooks and textbooks should have been instead (my literary works are on the shelf above), I noticed a series of books with imagery focused on blood and bone that were supposedly very grim, warlike and for mature audiences. I remembered that my father had gotten this series for me when I was quite young and the material was clearly too mature for me to handle at that age and that it was fortunate that I had never read that material.

My father had never actually bought me this particular series of books. This was not a literary series that existed in this world; it was a made-up concept by my subconscious. But, despite me being fairly conscious in this lucid dream, that is not something I realised until after I woke up. The dream provided me with false memories. In fact, the idea of this series was based on the fact that my father did provide me with books that were long and mature for my age when I was younger - just not that particular series. I read Ender's Game when I was eleven years old and a giant tome titled 'The Chronicles of Amber' sits upon my second-to-top shelf, untouched for years. This was probably a combination of the two concepts.

I looked around. I touched my surroundings. I touched the wall/closet and tried as well as I could to see what it felt like. The sensation felt quite real. Actually, I spent a lot of time in this dream touching my surroundings, though I don't write about it as thoroughly here. I was really focused on taking in the dream scene and making it as vivid as possible.

And for most of my time in my dream bedroom here, it looked very clear. The visuals looked as clear as real life when I have my glasses on. A bit later, I noticed that the scene was getting a bit less clear - not really blurry but instead about as clear as real life when I don't have my glasses on. So I did my best to ramp the vividness back up.

Then I thought of experimenting with some other senses. I instinctively turned to the air conditioner and tried to see if this would work. I wanted to change the temperature I felt in the dream. So I shouted at my subconscious, as well as I could, "Make the air cool!" Or something along those lines. I heard the air conditioner start working. At first, I didn't feel anything. I moved toward it and stretched my arms out. In a few seconds, I felt a mild rush of coolness touch my hands from that direction. But it wasn't perfect. So I shouted again. "MAKE THE AIR COOL!"

And surely, this time, the dream fully obeyed. The air suddenly felt cool from all directions. It felt. I felt. Genuinely cold. The sensation of cold. Even though my sleeping body wasn't undergoing any external circumstances causing it to be cold, I felt cold. That's the first time I've experimented with that sense in a lucid dream and it was... Well, what can I say? It was pretty cool.

Another thing I wanted to do before this lucid dream was to talk to/meet my subconscious in the form of a dream character (preferably a mirror image of myself). So I tried to go further with commanding my subconscious and shouted, "I want to talk to my subconscious!" Then I turned around to see if there was anyone there. There wasn't. So I turned back and tried again. "I WANT TO TALK TO MY SUBCONSCIOUS!" I turned around. There was still no-one. Nor had I gotten a reply of any kind. I suppose I wasn't well enough into my lucid dreaming yet. Though maybe if I'd persisted further...

After spending some time in my bedroom, I realised that I should do a Task of The Month. So I should get out of my bedroom and go somewhere where there are dream characters. Actually, I'd remembered my objective to do a Task of The Month before that, not long after I became lucid, but I kept putting it off. Yet, at some moment, I said to myself, 'Hey! You've got to do this soon! You don't want to wake up and not have done your lucid task in time, don't you?' So I changed locations. I actually don't remember what the original location that I saw in front of me then was, nor did I will or notice the transition as it happened. But soon into that, I was climbing a tree. As I was climbing it, I focused on how it felt - whether or not it really felt like a tree - and on how it looked and reminded myself that it was a dream and thought of the fact that doing certain things in a lucid dream can boost your consequent ability and/or self-confidence in waking life; and then I wondered about whether or not I was actually making myself more confident or physically capable or anything in waking life by climbing this tree.

When I finished climbing this tree, I stepped on a solid platform. I was in an elevator. One that was going down, I think. Standing in front of me, in the elevator, I saw a gang of thugs. At first it may have been one or two but then it became three. At least one of them was masked and armed and they were threatening my life. Confident in my dream control abilities, I tried to punch one but found that, as was often the case, it wasn't easy moving my body quickly and powerfully in the dream. So I decided to stop focusing on thrashing them through physical force and just imagine that they would die. I had a psychic power that could and would kill them without me needing to move a finger. As my hand was already in motion towards one, I used my fingers to dent his skull and take him through the head. Then I imagined the other two just getting holes in their heads and dropping to the ground. It worked. Everyone dropped to the ground but, as I had a little nib of doubt that I had been able to defeat them that easily, I looked down to the ground and saw one or two of their bodies, in suspended animation, partially projecting and jerking through the elevator floor. It looked extremely video-game-glitch-ish.

I tried to force them all the way down. Then I decided to ignore them. Remembering that I had a lucid task to complete, I decided to get out of the elevator. I escaped through an opening in the walls. It just sort of wound up existing there and it wasn't physically big enough for me to normally fit through it; but I was able to squeeze through with the power of dream control. As I was doing so, I thought of finding a character on the other side of the opening upon whom I could perform Basic Task ii - St. Patrick's Day: Pinch a DC who isn't wearing green. Report his or her reaction. On the other side, there was a well-lit room and I saw a sort of old-looking woman. She was dressed in pink. Nothing too colourful; just a plainly pink shirt and long skirt. She certainly wasn't wearing anything green, so she was the perfect candidate for this lucid task. I ran up to her, got close, hoping that she wouldn't move away, and pinched her in the arm. In response, she simply looked up at me and coldly said, "I don't feel comfortable with you doing that." 'Boy, who knew my dream characters were so chillingly uptight,' I thought? I may have expected her to run away or be angry or ask why I had done that; but this result felt exceedingly unsettling.

I apologised awkwardly to the woman and somehow ended up having dinner with her family - her, her husband and their teenage daughter. I hadn't tasted any of the food and decided to leave the dream scene, as I was no longer getting anything out of it. (If only I'd remembered Basic Task i - Middle Name Pride Day: Ask a DC what his or her middle name is... and that I could have done it on those same people as well...) I got up and went to walk my way to another scene. However, at that moment, my alarm woke me up.

I heard the sound of the alarm going off a moment before the dream ended and I opened my eyes. With the speed and immediacy at which I normally did so, I jumped out of bed and shut it off. Then I made sure to muster as much dream recall as possible and got ready to take on my day at school.

I'm not in this dream, just watching these two DCs interact. This old man looking to be in his 80's to 90's turn the corner into this room where a young girls looking to be 8 or 9 is sitting halfway out the window staring outside. The old man asks her when she wants him to take her home, but then the little girl starts jumping, and screaming and whimpering. The man asks her what's wrong, she whimpers that it bit her, then the little girl runs to another corner of the room. The man worriedly follows and asks her where it is, then she points on her lower torso of her pink windbreaker material jacket. Then the old man saw that it was only a small black spider and he smashes it between his two fingers and the girl seems to calm down. She goes and looks out the window and points outside to the right and says the spider made a tit corner over there. Then the old man confused asks what a tit corner is, then I woke up.

First OBE

I am laying on my side, facing the wall. I decide to pull the covers up and adjust my position. I open my eyes and look out the little hole my blankets give me. I feel a mild fear sensation, but I’m safe in my blankets. Then I start to hear noises and the vibrational state come on. I hear this loud voice of this male voice narrating, like an audio book. It’s like tuning into a radio station. I can’t hear or make out individual words or phrases, but it was pretty loud I was worried Kim could hear it!

Then I start to sink down and down. I let go even further and drift through my bed. I start to feel the loud “jet engine” sound come rushing through my ears. It’s mildly painful, I kind of wince as it’s getting louder. But soon I’m opening my astral eyes floating above my bed in my astral body. Boom, I’m out.

I end up jumping out of bed to my left, I look back at my body and I don’t see it there. I see the sheets open where my body should have been. I gently make the bed, but I don’t move out of that position. I say, “awareness now!” and “turn on the lights!” But nothing happens. I’m not even interested in leaving the room for some reason. I feel like I’m too tired to do anything. I end up phasing back to the physical.

What was weird was I woke up and opened my eyes, and I wasn’t in the position I thought I fell asleep in. I think I ended up in a lucid dream state identical to my physical reality right before I had the OBE. Crazy.

Second OBE

I don’t remember how this one happened, but I eventually got out of body and went out the front door. Lucid, I walk outside and see a van with two male drivers sitting in my driveway. I was going to just keep on going, but I purposefully walked over to talk to them.

The window rolls down, it’s Bob from my high school in the driver’s seat and another dude I didn’t know in the passenger. We said hello, and I interrupted and said, “Hey, do you know I’m dreaming?” And Bob said, “yes!” and seemed like, "obviously!"

I said to him, “Why am I dreaming of you? I mean, I hadn’t thought about you in years!?” Bob looks at his friend, both smiling as if they know something I don’t. They seem to be debating how to explain it. I’m excited with anticipation. I start to lose focus and things grow fuzzy. I desperately try to hang on and try staring up close at the details on Bob’s face. It helps but not enough. Before Bob gets a chance to tell me his answer, I phase back to the physical and wake up disappointed.

But I’m still satisfied I went lucid and even had the opportunity to ask my first dream character what they represent. That’s a success in my book.

May not be in chronological order. In New York city, Lady Liberty is in Manhattan for some strange reason. I ask people why this is, they say it was always this way in this game (Me thinking it is Spider Man 2, PS2, played that game alot when i was younger). I think this can't be right (Not fully sure on this next Part), i think back at how it 's on Liberty island not Manhattan (Didn't become lucid, ). That's all i remember from this part. Next part is also strange, i am in Times Square (Still in New York) and i am in a bed here . I am changing clothes for some reason here in the bed and i feel very self conscious (As you would if you were half naked in front of many people), i am with people from my days in school and my brother. My brother leaves to buy something (We must be on a school trip), and people don't seem to mind a half naked guy trying to change clothes whilst trying to block his private parts desperately with the new change of clothes. To be honest there aren't much people around it seemed. I ask one of my classmate's where i can buy something good, the rest is vague and i then wake up. Now, this dream is weird because when i was in school i kept myself to myself and had a very little amount of friends and there was many people there i didn't like, but in this dream no one seems to mind me and i got by fine. This dream must've been made from the reason i am kind of self-conscious and when i had to change clothes when i did sports at school, but even then no one bothered me that much there.


Note: Forgot to mention a guy was having s*x with someone behind me. Not to get too detailed but in that position where the guy is standing and holding the girl's legs while he lifts her up and down on his P***s, lol.

Didn't sleep the greatest last night and I kept waking up, but I still remembered a few things.

Dream 1: The setting was possibly a cave-type place. There was something about a mission where one had to dress up as a girl and pretend to be distraught, until a monster or something heard you and dragged you away. In this case it was Harry Potter, I think.

Dream 2: Setting was my grandma's house or something like it. Me and a girl with long, darker hair, possibly Indian, were lying on blankets or something and talking. Either she was my moirail or she mentioned something about one. This part is a little blurry, but there was something about spawning or generating a creature, and how the one I got was named "Dogg", which apparently had been a name I had gotten in the past.

[Gap]

I was in my aunt's room? and there was a dark man there talking to me, and he held up a really small dried up/dead baby snake and was telling me how you have to take care of them or this happens, and I was thinking about how it was 5 A.M. and I was busy doing something important so I couldn't take care of that too.

Dream 3: Two? people are listening to Kankri and Karkat from Homestuck talk, and they're being sarcastic and joking, and they banter about something off-color, and one of the watchers turns to the other and concludes that Kankri must have done something inappropriate to Karkat? o_O

Fragment: I think this might have been apart of around the #2 dream: I spit a wad of gum out of my mouth and was picking pieces of it out of my teeth. (Side-note: Gum is one of the items in my memory palace, so it might have come from that.)

I attained lucidity only for a brief moment before losing my awareness. I attempted at making the dream more vivid by using a technique on the DreamViews forum, simply closing you eyes. I'll start from the beginning.

I was in an old, broken-down, haunted-looking house. We were filming a movie there using some cheap special effects and all of us (actors, camera-man and director alike) were teenagers, it just looked like we were having a bit of fun with a video-camera.

Then it came to me, I'm lucid! I think my sub-concious may have tried to throw me off because the next thing I know the director is telling me to do something and I immediately followed the order. Before I could be lost into the dream again I realized that no, I'm lucid and I can do anything I like.

The dream was a little fuzzy so I attempted to make it more vivid by closing my eyes and telling myself I wanted this dream to be more vivid. This had the reverse effect and I ended up becoming part of the dream once again, so now I know that method is not something I should be using again, or something to only come back to in a long time/with enough experience.

Black means non lucid
Orange means semi lucid

Got it? Great! Enjoy my dreams and make your self comfortable.

Dream #1 Who's dream is this???

Im walking down a neighborhood near my favorite aunt P's house. Its day time out and sunny, and feels like 65 degrees out. I walk to the gas station to get me some chips, Reach in my pocket to grab my hawk coin totem. Im whistling and flipping it in the air catching it with one hand while my other hand is in my pocket. I notice a black dude on his bike riding past, nothing suspicious there. I notice a old white lady walking with a cane reaching for something in her purse, nothing strange there. I look down in front of me to notice a coin similar to mines. Hmm...i question it a bit, and look up to notice it is now night time. "Huh.? How did it get night time so fast?" Ah, only one solution to that! I continue walking and notice a white chic with sandy brown hair, wearing a burgundy t shirt, some black and white converse sneakers, some ripped blue jeans, and she looked to be in her early 20's with a sort of punk rock look to her.

"Hey hows it goin?"
"Good. Um..i know this is like gonna sound strange and all..but..lol Are you like a DC?"
"Uh..noo. Im a real person."
"Cool i am too. My names heather."

"Uh..nice to meet you Heather. How did you get here?"
"Get where? Here? Lol i walked here dude."
"No no no no no. I mean..how did you get here..in my dream?"
"Lol this is not your dream dude. This is my dream."
>_< I reach in my pocket and pull out another hawk coin.
"Whats that?"
"A personal token of mine. Helps me determine if im dreaming, or sharing a dream with someone."
"Cool."

I flip it in the air, it falls on the sidewalk spinning really fast and then creating more coins.
"Whoa thats freaking awesome!"
There are now 5 coins on the ground.
"Grab one."
"Why?"
"Cause if your gonna be sharing dreams with me, im gonna need to keep track of who you are, and whether or not to confirm in my dream records if your real..or just a projection."
"But dude, i already fucking told you im real."
I stare at her. We start walking towards a house and there is a tall white blond chic who is sitting down in a chair smoking out of a bong. I see this one black dude who looked mixed with something.

(Blond chic) "Hey hey hey.. how the hell you two just walk in my house without (words sluring )with out how come knocking."
(Heather talking) "Whoa..your defintely stoned!"
(Blond chic) "Ye..yea...so what."
Me and heather start looking around the house in search of something. (don't know what)
Im rubbing my hawk coin totem, and tell heather to do the same to stabilize the dream more. We begin noticing stairs and roaches falling out of the ceiling.
"Gross! Lets get the fuck outta this place!"
"Hell this is your dream!"
We run out of the house now in a crowded outside busy intersection. I mention to her that she needs to remember that everyone around us are just projections of hers. She tells me how did i get into her dream again. I mention to her that i am certain this is my dream and she is only a projection.

We argue a bit and notice some people outside of a store ( A latino guy and a white chic with long black hair)

We approach them.
(Heather talking) "How does it feel to be a DC?"
(The girl talking) "Uh..who's dream is this?"
Me and Heather look at eachother, then look back at the girl and Heather hands her the coin and i wake up.


Notes: I am still unsure to truly know if this was an actual person so to speak. But, i keep it mark as a shared dream just in case a heather happens to stumble upon this entry. I could've had more dreams so that i can do the TOTM. But could'nt sleep due to a car alarm from one of my neighbors goin off every other hour. I managed to find some earplugs though so i can get the proper rest. Overall, im happy with my recall, and want to continue getting my lucid dreams. More subconscious training is in the works for me today!

I'm at a gas station in the middle of a deserted area, kind of desert like. like the blue gas station in hot springs, not the Y, and more Isolated. I don,t remember who I'm with but one is a girl and the other is a guy. I do believe that the guy is taking over for me as the clerk. The girl and I walk out of the store and hop into a vehicle when a van pulls up and a handful of guys with guns hop out and run into the store. Robberies have happened to the station before so I feel like I know what to do. I look at the girl and say stay put, and run and Check out the van…. more stuff happens but I cannot remember. Eventually I'm inside and running on the metal walkways inside the store above the ground floor. The guys are below trying to find a way up and occasionally taking shots off at me with the SMG's they carry. I creep around until the Robbers lose sight of me. I kill one robber by kicking an aisle over onto him, he probably lived but i incapacitated him. After that the last two guys saw this they revealed a truly awesome power of shape shifting into some sort of dark purple tiger/panther. With this they are able to jump up to the metal walkways off of the store items. So now the three of us are up on the walk ways and they are chasing me. I end up catching one off guard and kicking him off the metal walkway. Now its just me and their leader, but he has found what he was really looking for. The main safe is in the centre of the walkway on the tallest part. I run up behind him and he turns so we have a confrontation. He tells me I'm too late and turns into a tiger thing and starts running at me. I start running to my left and take a right then turn around very quickly to see him right behind me. I then Jump out of the way and he goes flying off the walkway. I then walk down and out off the store and hop in my vehicle that the girl was waiting in and drive away.

I'm not even sure how this one starts but I did wake up between the dreams and this one starts in the parking lot again. Shapeshifting must be a common trait I give my dream characters cause this time they can change into velociraptors. except the velociraptors can change into humans. so there base form is velociraptor. anyway I don't remember much of this one except that somehow I caused a sinkhole to form and swallow them. then I jumped in the whole to find that it was a cave system they live in. I snuck around oblivion style, literally felt like an oblivion cave of sorts, until I got to the very bottom of the cave. There I witnessed one of the creatures stand in front of a computer in the middle of a circular "room" He then turned around and walked a few paces till he reached the wall and some metal storage unit. He then opened the unit through a holographic keypad that floated perfectly above the metal case. upon opening the room filled with a vibrant blue light, coming from the inside of the case. He opened it all the way and withdrew some glowing blue balls, about the size of ping pong balls. He then takes these balls and fuses them together into a bigger one by closing the palm of his hand around them. He then moves his hand to the back of his neck/ upper spine and pushes the balls into himself. He seems to become more powerful from the process and thats when I realise he started morphing back into a man. He was somewhere in-between the stages when he turned to his right and looked right at me. He turns and walks out then, even though we made eye contact and I know he knew I was there. I then walk over to the middle conduit first and check out the "space age" technology. I do not understand the true purpose of the super computer but I just know that I am in the command post for this "base" or Hive or whatever and that this computer controls everything. I then turn around and walk up to the metal case. I never noticed the creature close the case so it must have auto closed when he walked away. I walk up and activate the motion activated holographic keypad. On it it says power balls. I push the open button and the case begins to open. I reach in and grab a few. They are warm to the touch but not hot. I then close my hand on them to push them together and they do get semi hot and almost a liquid feel. when I open my hand they are one larger ball and it cools back to the lukewarm state. I then imitate the creature and push the ball on too my spine. the feeling is amazing, warm hot liquid rushes from the spot and fills my whole body, going first up and down my spine. I feel so rejuvenated a grab another handful and do the same. this time it is cylindrical after being compressed, probably because I grabbed so many. I also use those on my self and then make another cylinder. I then wonder what else you could make with these "power balls". So I pocket the cylinder and then grab a big hand full. I start compressing them, thinking of a cell phone, and poof it turns into a glowing cellphone with a keypad and everything. It then slowly cools to room temperature while simultaneously change in into the plastic steel colour of my mac. I decide to try not to use it, considering I'm deep underground. I decide that I've snuck around enough and that I needed to get out of there before I get caught. I then awake to this world.

Dream #1 Walking down the highway.

Im walking down a highway on the sidewalk, a bunch of cars are passing me by. I noticed a billboard with a list of movies. (i forgot the list of movies that were listed)

Dream #2 Paper or plastic?

Im now in a supermarket,with this elderly russian man. He looked to be in his 40's or 50's. I was helping him shop for things such as Pickles, eggs, bread, milk, and prunes. The casier looks at us and says...paper or plastic? Plastic (i say)

Dream #3 Dream cue from the Hawk.

Im riding a motorcycle (don't have one in real life) holding a yellow flag racing against other people. (im guessing we had to set the flag down at some random location) I hear a high pitch whistle and look up at the sky, ITS A HAWK! I stop in the middle of the road and i noticed, im all alone. I look up at this sign, posted on a billboard it read...(FOR LET HE WHO HAS EYES SEE, AND LET HE WHO HAS EARS HEAR. MY CALL WILL AWAKEN THE HEARTS OF THOSE WHO SEEK THE TRUTH) Hmm..I reach in my pocket and pull out my totem. I look around how did i get here? what did i do a hour ago??? Ah, im asleep in my bed right now! Im rubbing my totem, the dream snaps in focus. Im focused, i put it back in my pocket and decide its time to have some fun.

Having fun with mirrors.

I take my finger, and make a mirror in the air in front of me. i turn around for 5 seconds and say when i turn around, i expect to see my female subconscious self. When i turned back around, it was a huge square shaped mirror. I noticed that i am no longer a male, but i am now in fact, my female counterpart. I am still my complexion, caramel skin, i have long curly hair, full lips, a slight slant to my eyes, my eyes are bigger and more of a hazel colour. With C cup breast and a bit of a curvy waist, i am now wearing a pink dress and black strappy sandals, a toe ring with a french pedicure on my feet. I look very beautiful i say to myself. I now summon a purse to put my totem inside, just in case i need to stabilize the dream a bit more. I dive thru the mirror and end up at some bar.

Dream #4 Heads or tails? Pick one.

I walk into a bar. This bikerman looks at me, i give him a dirty look. I walk up to the bar ask for a glass of wine. I spot my cousin drinking at the bar, i get up and walk over to him. Mind if i join you? Sure. Whats your name? (I try and change the subject) Don't you know who i am? Uh...nope sorry you don't look familiar. I tell him, what if i told you that with one flip of a coin, i can snap your mind into a different world. I would say you been drinking a lil bit too much of that wine baby. (I reach in my purse) I pull out my hawk coin totem. Heads? or tails? (i ask him) Lol tellin you girl that alcohol getting to yo head. I will say this one more time. Heads? or tails? Aight aight i'll play along. Heads. I flip it in the air and catch it, then look at it and show him. It landed tails. Hey wait a min...why am i in a bar? Come with me. ( i take my glass of wine with me) I take him in the mens bathroom. I sat my purse on the sink. Do you know why we are in here? Uh...no. Why are we in here? Because it is time for you to go to sleep. Huh? I slipped something in your drink while you were looking at my coin. In exactly 1 min, you will be passed out. and when you wake back up, i will explain it to you in another form got it? Wha what? WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME!? Relax. you about to go into a different layer with me. (He passes out on the floor) I look in my purse and take this white pill and drink my wine. I look in my purse to find my celphone and set my beethoven music to go off in 60 mins I set it on the bathroom sink and fall backwards to the floor.

Dream #4 A dream within a dream.

I now wake up in my 2nd home. I look around for my cousin r. R, you in here??? I walk into the bathroom and say alright when i stick my arm thru this mirror, im gonna pull out my cousin r. I take my right arm and stick it thru the mirror and pull my cousin thru it. I just had a dream that some girl with curly hair was talking to me at a bar, and..showed you this? (I hold the coin up) Yea, just like that. Wait min..how did i just get here? Because i pulled you here, and this is still a dream by the way. Whoa whoa whoa, what do you mean still a dream? Like i said your still dreaming. Na man, thats impossible! Tell me then, why are we standing here at my old house then, instead of my current house hm? I i..i don't know. C'mon, its time for your 1st lesson. Here (i hand him my totem) Look at it. Now when you wake up in the real world, im gonna test you to see if you will remember how it looked. Stare at it until It is imprinted in you brain. Yo, im dreaming!? I nod my head. Relax though..because you are getting overly excited. I can't believe im dreaming!!! (He starts fading away) I knew that was gonna happen. (I fall backwards)

Final dream: Your just a projection of my subconscious.

I wake up in the previous dream on the bathroom floor. I get up and notice, im my female projection of myself. I project back into my normal self and grab my celphone and notice i have 5 mins of lucid dreamtime remaining. I exit the bathroom and talk to random dream characters about their abilities One young boy says he can manipulate the weather. This one man said he can eat 500 slices of pizza. I then notice a interesting looking young lady who was attractive. I asked her what her abilities were, and that if she showed me something interesting, i would hire her for my next dream job. We were in a gas station, she was looking for some chips. I said you can do anything just make it unique ok? She nods. Oh, so your not much of a talker i see. well, what if i told you that your just a projection of my subconscious. I don't care. You mean you don't mind being created by me? No not at all. In fact im I want the job watch this. She begins telepathically moving everything around in the store. Not bad, not bad. (i say) Alright let me ask you a question. Ahem, whats the easiest way for me to become lucid in dreams? Pay attention to your surroundings. Oh and also try a start re entering your old homes, so you can remember how you got there in the 1st place too. And aslo if someone wants to fight you, that should increase your lucidity more. Thanx. Whats your name? Roselyn.

Hmm..Roselyn. Ok, you got the job! (Right here i here my beethoven alarm goin off) I wake up and record the dream.

Notes: Did wbtb at 5:30 am. I did my reality check with my totem for about 15 mins and headed back to bed. I woke from this dream at 7:45 am. could not fall back asleep cause of a job i had at that time. had to be there at 9:30 am. Oh and my cousin ended up remembering a dream of being in a bathroom with a woman with curly hair. hehe wonder if he knows that was me. Shapeshifted as her that whole time. Ah, me and my dreaming abilities.

Old LD from 2-14-07

Wow...I just did another Task of the Month. And how appropriate, considering it is Valentine's Day.

I had gotten to sleep in, and I had been awake for a bit, but decided that today would be a good chance to do a WBTB. I wanted to get the Task done, and I thought that since it was Valentine's Day I might have extra inspiration to get the Task completed.

The dream started with me looking over a balcony of an apartment in which I supposedly lived. There were lots of people below in the yard or road or whatever was below the balcony. I remember thinking that something was not quite right with this. And I suddenly realized that I was dreaming.

I looked back down. I had to find someone to ask to be my Valentine. I saw some teenage boys from the neighborhood. At first I was reluctant, but then said to myself, "It doesn't matter--this is my dream--no one will know that I asked them to be my Valentine in a dream."

So I glided down the the ground level. And went up to M and asked him to be my Valentine. He looked at me like he thought I might be playing some sort of trick on him. He squinted his eyes a little and said, "Are you serious?"

Then my dream faded.

But I ended up back in the apartment and was still lucid. This time I recognized it as my friend E's apartment (of course it was not his either in real life). His family was there along with some family friends. They had been making cookies with sprinkles, but were now cleaning up.

I wanted to try the Task again, to see if I could get a better answer.

I asked E's sister. She said, "Sure, why not."

Then I asked a blond girl, "Will you be my Valentine?"

She said, "Yeah, because I owe you." I looked at her somewhat confused.

She said, "The meeting tonight......I'll be getting you your pin and uniform."

At first I felt slightly alarmed, then thought "There is no meeting. This is just my dream. How funny that my brain would come up with that."

Then I asked another girl that was about 15. (There were only girls in the room--no guys.)

She said that she couldn't be my Valentine because she was already a sister.

I asked her why she couldn't be both. And then she went on about not being able to drive herself anywhere and how she was a burden on others because of that. It didn't actually make a lot of sense. But I let her go on.

Then a guy in his late 20's walked in with a little girl about two years old on his shoulders. I walked up to him to ask, but at the last minute I asked the little girl instead. She couldn't talk so I didn't expect an answer. But I just talked to her like you do to a toddler. "Hi...you are just so cute...hey, do you want to be my Valentine? That would be fun, huh? And, see, you are wearing hearts on your dress. You are already all dressed up for Valentine's Day."

At that point I figued I'd asked enough people...an interesting variety...and had gotten an interesting variety of answers.

I thought, "What else can I ask them?" I thought back to the Task in November where we were supposed to ask people of we were dreaming. I decided to do that again.

So I started with the blond girl whose meeting I was supposed to attend that night. I asked her if I was dreaming and she nodded and said yes.

I went down the line and everyone was saying yes. Finally the last girl I got to I asked, "But how do you know I am dreaming?" I really wanted to know what she would say.

She said, " Because this all sounds like it is being recorded in a studio." (I was not expecting that answer). And the funny thing is as she said that sentence, her voice started sounding all echo-y and unnatural.

Then the dream faded again.

BUt I ended up back in the apartmant again. This time it was empty. I looked at the table that still had lots of sprinkles left on it fron the cookies they were making.

I suddenly had an idea inspired by my mom.

In real life my mom and I started eating a raw vegan diet about 6 weeks ago. A few weeks ago she told me about a dream she had where she was eating pork, and then became lucid (her first lucid dream--and it was just from listening to me talk about it). She then thought, "Well, since this is just a dream, I might as well finish eating this pork" Since it was tasting so good.... .

So looked around the apartment. I saw some cookie dough and put it in my mouth. It didn't taste as good as I had wished. I remembered that in real life I had been craving peanutbutter cookies with chocolate chips.

I opened the fridge. And sure enough, on a plate all made up nice and with plastic wrap over it was a large batch of that kind of cookie. I took one and ate it and was incredibly thankful that my dream taste buds were fully working in this dream.

I started to take another, then paused, momentarily feeling guilty for taking the cookies that E's mom had put away. It was obvious that they were supposed to be a gift for someone.

I then had to remind myself that this was still my dream--that's why I was getting to eat these in the first place. That no one with ever miss these cookies.

So I spent the next five minutes (or so it seemed) just eating one cookie after another

This is the second LD, which I remember from tonight, although it is very short - my fourth LD.

I was being chased down a sidewalk by three cops, they were shooting at me and I realized how strange it all was - I dived behind a wall and did an RC.
Realizing that I was dreaming, I figured they couldn't hurt me, so I tried summoning up two guns - which sort of failed.
I looked down at my hands, and rather than holding a gun in each hand, my hands were transformed into a gun-shape and had weird colorations on them.

I stepped out from behind the wall and fired towards the people chasing me - I completely forgot to stabilize due to the rush of trying to escape.
I fired two bullets, one of the cops was hit in the chest. Sadly, by stepping out from behind my cover, I was an easy target and they shot at me.
I was hit by one of the bullets and it caused me to wake up.

I had a few other LDs that night, but I don't really remember them, so lucidity must've been rather low.
