Dream recall from today's naps. Must've had low awareness on that WILD...

Dream 1:

I am in my bed and i hear someone in the room and then someone throws covers me with pillows, i think that's 'attacker' DC again and i quickly get up, ready to claw him up, but don't see him. I see different DC moving to balcony though, i go here and on my way i suddenly for some reason have doubts that it's a dream, room is exact and for some reason i don't have dream feeling, i do RC and it fails as well, i continue to balcony and notice that there's same DC on the streets that is on balcony, and it's apparently my mom? Dream fades out shortly.

Dream 2(fragments):

I wake up, get distracted and then wake up again and there's some big military alarm button on the wall or somesuch.

Dream 3:

There's some story about some person that loses his daughter in some event, then years later(time skip), he finds some being that at first looked like a dog, but then started having head hair similar to his daughter and talking to him. Then i was suddenly somewhere near big dining table and that creature was here, morphing between different states, at one point it even transformed into food, i was thinking about doing RC but dream ended before i could.

Dream 4(fragments):

False awakening, getting distracted, then another false awakening, and something about weird calling old radio-like device that was used for selling some stuff.

Dream recall from today's naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

There were some false awakenings and i was chatting on dragon forum.

Dream 2(fragments):

There was something about cartoon characters and preventing someone from stealing someone's wife and some weird movement in air on something.

Dream 3:

I was at home doing some stuff, walls were different and there was some kind of celebration going on, somebody was asking questions about money and annoying me so i gave him a coin and told him to go away, then went to nap.
Then i wake up and realize that i am dreaming, i get up and go to balcony, dream seems to be unstable a bit but other than that room looks similar to IWL. As i reach balcony door i attempt my new idea for changing forms, reversed transformation, which almost immediately works and i fall into quadruped stance. Though at this point dream destabilizes.
I wake up again but i am still changing, i feel tail, then dream 'desyncs' and what i feel is different from what i see.
Then i wake up again and talk to someone, and wake up again.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was updating GW forum game on different forum.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was on PC and there was something wrong with internet connection, then there was a weird beeping sound.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing warcraft 3 and interface was weird and looked like some kind of MMO, i was reading something about how to get additional units then went to some quest.
I woke up and was talking to someone about some numbers.
Then i wake up again and this time i realize that i am dreaming, i go for balcony, but each time i go through balcony door there's another one behind it. Eventually dream fades out.
I wake up again and somebody throws a pillow at me. Then i wake up again, this time properly.

Dream recall from today's naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was chatting with SilentEternity on Skype, about spiral knights and some jokes, at one point he was asking "Am i always being like that?" or something along this line.

Dream 2(fragments)

I was watching some let's play of some third person shooter, the action was happening in some desert.

Dream 3(fragments):

I wake up and i get confused since the body i feel is different from what i see, it takes a bit of time for me to get up and i look at hands, i notice they are weird but dream fades out before i realize it.

Dream 4(fragments):

There was some scene in grassland, knight in white armor and knight in black armor were talking, they realized during the talk that they are not really what they are, then they connected their hands, and in a very bright, almost blinding, glow, they turned into dragons.

Dream 1(fragments):

I am doing some stuff at home and then i decide to look at hands they were weird so i am dreaming, i go to balcony, rub hands. Then i take off and feel wings, as i fly i notice that background is like static texture, then dream fades out.

Dream 2:

There was story about space station and some spaceship docking there. The crew of the ship were secretly pirates and were trying to capture the station, also they were not humans but rather light-blue muscular humanoids in armor. There was some kid-engineer that was defending the station and he started talk with one of pirates and managed to talk them into going away. Then i was looking at some kind of ship log and there were some of nicknames that i used on internet logged. Then back to story, the ship flied out of hanger and there was some battle going on.
Then everything everything faded to some other place, in the skies, a dragon was flying away.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing some FPS game and the level was located in some ancient tomb place, i was discussing something with other player and we were talking about some science book.
Then i wake up and i realize that apparently i accidentally bit somebody and some stuff around while sleeping and there was some talk about that.

10:00-6:00

Dream 1:

I remember something about a "John Oliver Show".

Dream 2:

I remember a river and a bunch of wooden water equipment, like a water wheel. I think the river flooded, too, and destroyed the equipment.

Dream 3:

I was dreaming about being a secret agent in a villa, trying to steal something. I was a woman, and I started dancing in a ballroom with some people. I was also running around on the roofs of the villa.

I woke up from that dream into ANOTHER dream. I guess I had a dream within a dream (or a false awakening, but I actually remembered the dream from before). I was in my house on Long Island, and I woke up in the dining room, on a chair at the dining table. The rest of my family went through the front door, with shopping bags. I guess they just got home from shopping. I told them about the dream I just had. I then remember going into one of the cabinets and taking finding a box of sesame stick packages, from the shopping my family just got home from. They looked like little raisin boxes, but with two packs of two sesame sticks each. I took one out and ate it. That's the end of the dream.

Dream recall from today's nap.

Dream 1:

I was playing spiral knights and there was some grassland place, it was filled with rare "soul jelly' type of enemies and they were partially invisible, i started messaging SilentEternity about it but i couldn't type quick enough without getting attacked. The edges of the place was also made from weird brown metallic blocks. It was also glitchy and stuff was flickering in and out, there were also a few crimsonite crystals, explosive boxes and some lichens including one giant one.
Done with that, i finished with gaming, talked to some people and was eating an apple. Then i suddenly thought that i might be dreaming and then started feeling it, i go to balcony door and jump through, but somehow get stuck in curtains behind door again and dream fades out.

Dream 2(fragments):

Was at home, distracted from nap, then i wake up and there's something with the door and my hands were a bit clawed.

Dream recall from today's naps, pretty unstable lucidity prolly because i went to nap a bit too late.

Dream 1(fragments):

I am at home and there's some stuff going on, then i realize that i am dreaming, but dream shortly fades out. then i wake up and had to go to bathroom. and wake up again.

Dream 2(fragments):

I wake up at home there's some talk and some stuff going on then i wake up again and realize that i am dreaming, i go to balcony door while rubbing hands but dream still fades out.

Dream 3(fragments):

I am trying to nap but i get interrupted by some talk, then i wake up and and i feel my arms are in different positions than where i see them i realize that i am dreaming and get up, i go to balcony but dream starts fading again, i rub hands and jump off the balcony, but dream fades out completely and i wake up[/COLOR] twice.

Dream 4(fragments):

I was at home and there were zombies invading, there were two more people and one of them was apparently infected, we had a great idea that knocking him unconscious would stop infection(Dream logic!), but it didn't worked that well and later he fully turned into a zombie.

[B]Saturday, August 17th 2013: "Repetition" (LUCID)
Type: DILD/FA[/B]

I had a fantastic series of false awakenings - three in a row, and lucid in all three of them, but many details have disappeared because the whole thing was followed by completely non-related non-lucid dream. However, this is what I do remember...

Everything happens in the morning hours. It is daytime. I am sitting in my armchair in the living room, and I become lucid by doing an RC on the digital clock under my TV. - Because of the vividness of everything, I can't believe that I'm dreaming, so I repeat the RC two or three more times. I get very excited, stand up, and begin to laugh. I begin recalling some minor things I did last night. Then I turn around and look at the mirror in the living room, which is once again showing a somewhat different reflection. The biggest difference is in the hair, eyebrows, and eyes. Just for the fun of it, I pull on my right ear a little, and the same thing happens in the reflection. Now I point my finger in the mirror and begin laughing. The reflection does the same thing, but again, with minor differences. My facial expression in the mirror is very funny and unusual. As I'm deciding what I should do next, the dream appears to end.

[B][U]FA #1:[/U][/B]

I'm lying on my bed on my right side, and experiencing mild vibrations. After a few moments I become aware that it's a dream, and I just sit up. I push my right index finger through my left palm, and it feels like weak rubber. The finger slightly pushes through the palm. I laugh, and lucidly get out of bed. In my living room I encounter a friend, whom I ask to take me to an intelligent dream character, because I have some questions I need answered. He takes me into the yard, and we stand infront of the door that leads to my storage room. He tells me that this dream character is in there. I briefly see some figure through the door glass, but this is where I "wake up"...

[B][U]FA #2:[/U][/B]

Lying on my bed, once again on my right side, and again experiencing mild vibrations. I am pretty certain I feel my dream body and not my real body, so therefore I just sit up again, and do the finger-through-palm RC. Yup, I am still sleeping, and this is a dream. I get up, go outside, into the yard, and stand in front of the storage room, to attempt myself to generate this dream character. I try to expect many things, but even after two attempts it doesn't work. Now I decide to levitate a bit, which actually works great, as it always does in my dreams. A few moments later, I "wake up" again.

[B][U]FA #3:[/U][/B]

Same scenario. Lying on my bed, right side, mild vibrations. At this point I am 100% sure that it is a false awakening, and at the same time I laugh because it's already the third one. I sit up, do finger-through-palm successfully, and get out of bed. I go outside, into the yard, and I start saying the following out loud. "I will remember all of this. I must remember all of this. All the details I will remember." As I'm saying this, I look closely at the walls and all the details around me. It is very vivid. I laugh. Now I remember something from Patricia Garfield's "Creative Dreaming", and that's the claim that it should be pretty hard to say your name out loud in a lucid dream. In the book it says that this will cause many people to wake up. Now I try to do this, and I say my name out loud. To be honest it does create an unusual feeling perhaps because of some expectation effect, but it does not cause me to wake up. I rub my hands together, and decide to go for a walk. I walk down the street, frequently touching the walls of the houses as a sort of stabilization method. After a few minutes I notice that this town doesn't look like itself anymore. I seem to be in a completely different place. At this point the dream becomes unstable, starts to fade, and eventually turns into a non-lucid dream.

Dream 1: I'm taking a walk in my neighborhood. I walk past my old elementary school where kids are arriving for the first day. Then, I walk up a street situated on a hill. On my way up the street, I play on the crosswalk, experimenting in finger-snapping time travel (snap your fingers, rewind time). Later, I trip on the sidewalk and fall between a dumpster and a bunch of small trees and bushes. Even further up the street I come to a chainlink fence with a hole in the bottom, and a male lion (mane and all) on the other side. I turn around and walk the other way. A few seconds later I'm in a place that seems to be full of brown leaves (although that part is fuzzy)

Dream 2 (fragment): I'm in the downstairs kitchen. I grab a cinnamon roll from the stove. (It's the pillsbury kind). I guess this was a false awakening because I remember thinking "I woke up in the afternoon again?"

Dream recall from today's nap.

I am at home and some people are distracting me from my nap, there is some talk, i have to do something with some papers and then they leave. After that i notice some candles on table, and that one of them apparently slightly setting the wall on fire, i started thinking about informing someone and almost exited the room, but then "wait a second", i look at my hands and they are weird, so i am dreaming. I stop and recall some stuff to do then i go to balcony doors while rubbing hands on the way. Dream version of my room appears to be using old layout and there are apparently a couple of steps down on the way to balcony door, and also balcony itself has glass walls, some of them are open though.
I jump out and feel my wings, starting the flight. I fly around and soon i am above some other city, with high density of rather small buildings and some industrial buildings, all of them are mostly blocky and squarey. I fly above them while looking around, there are some weird reflective surfaces floating in the air. After a few minutes i spot square opening in the roof of one of buildings and fly inside. Place appears to have mostly metallic walls and some machinery, then as i look around it slowly turns into different room from my home part by part, and then dream fades out.
I wake up and i still feel that i am dreaming, and it's nighttime here this time, i get up and go to balcony, it appears to be same as before false awakening with those two steps and glassed walls, but this time closed, i get to glass, turn around and fall back, phasing through it. I feel wings and start the flight. Looking around, dreamscape appears to be more natural, there are some trees. I fly to the left and then i find some village, there appears to be some wooden water barrel thing, in the middle of it that immediately catches my attention, i have urge to destroy it. So i land and start tearing it apart, it appears to have some mechanisms on top and metallic parts, and it's insides are made of... bread??? As i tear it apart i also notice some DCs walking around. Then satisfied with that being done, i stand up and think about trying some of that bread, but dream shortly fades out shortly.

[B]Wednesday, August 14th 2013: "Something feels odd" (LUCID)
Type: DILD[/B]

I am walking in a street very close to my house. It's nighttime, and I'm going to buy a pizza. However when I get to this pizzeria, I see it's closed. Kind of pissed off because this was unexpected, I walk back down the street. What strikes me as odd is that it's pretty early to be closed, and the other thing... a construction site that should be located at the end of the street... it isn't there anymore. However I rationalize this by thinking they finished pretty fast with their work. I turn left and walk into the street where I live. As I enter my corridor/hallway, I just feel something isn't right. I step into my living room... and see that the lights are on, and the TV as well. I know I never do that when I go anywhere. Now it simply dawns on me without any reality check... I'm dreaming! I smile, and do a reality check for the fun of it. First my hand has 5 fingers, then 7, then 6, then 5 again. I decide to go for a walk and perhaps attempt some flying, so I go outside, and after a few steps further... the dream begins to fade, and a false awakening occurs.

[B]Wednesday, August 14th 2013: "Positive Mirror" (LUCID)
Type: FA/DILD[/B]

I am lying in my bed, disappointed that the dream ended and I didn't get to do anything. Now this false awakening feels so extremely real that I don't think for one second that this could be a dream, although I find it a bit strange that it is still night time... seeing that I went to bed pretty late. I turn my laptop on to check my mail. Windows loads pretty fast. I log into my e-mail, no new mail. I go to DreamViews and log in... seeing a new private message. I don't see who sent it, but the subject says "DERENDER". Before I open the message, I take a look at my desktop clock in the corner to see what time it is. It says 23:something. I turn away, look back, now it says 11:something. I laugh, can't believe it, and I repeat the reality test. Now it says 05:something. Yaaay!

I laugh out loud, step from my bedroom into the living room, and see the same mirror that I experimented with the previous night. Ah what the hell, it was so fun that night, I decide to do it again. I step infront of it and analyze my reflection. My reflection isn't angry anymore. It looks friendly, a bit smiling. The hair is a bit shorter. I also have a beard stubble, but the reflection does not. My eye color also seems different in the reflection... it is somewhat lighter. In any case, the reflection is once again different, but not in the way it was in the previous dream. It is much more positive this time. Now when I touch a tooth in my dreams, it always wiggles, and if I do it a bit more it falls out. Now I decide to do something funny, I open my mouth wide and look into the mirror. I see all my teeth... they are normal just like in reality. I push my finger against one upper tooth in the corner... and yup, it starts to move. I am actually amazed how I feel it moving, and I also feel the "nerve" somehow, deep inside. It's a bit uncomfortable, but not painful at all. I find it funny.

Now at this point I close my mouth, and I attempt to shoot "energy" out of my palms. I rub my hands, concentrate on my palms, and direct them toward the mirror. Now I see the center of my palms start to glow slightly, and they begin to emit a green energy, extremely real looking. I look in the reflection, and see it very nicely as well. It is a very nice glow. At this point I decide to make this energy even stronger, so I focus, but unfortunately the dream begins to fade. I close my dream eyes, and attempt to generate a new scenery, but instead I wake up. No false awakening this time.

Dream recall from today's naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was playing Doom and roaming through some huge map. It was some kind of complex with outdoor areas at west and indoor areas at east, and also some ventilation system passages. It was pretty mazey and used alot of grey/white textures in places, but also brown ones in other places and green in outdoor area. There were some new enemies and something about player character was dragon-related(can't recall exactly what though).I realized that it's dream while viewing automap briefly and tried to memorize it. Then i lost lucidity.

Dream 2(fragments):

I've had chain of false awakenings during which i either was trying to deal with mosquito or was talking to someone about PC hardware. Then there's another false awakening, and this time some nice voice is asking something, i try to respond and eventually get up i feel that i am dreaming and i feel... quite more aware of surroundings than usually, there's some female DC, we talk about something for a bit and i end up following her and losing lucidity, there are three more DCs, i become aware of dreaming again while going downstairs but then talk continues and i lose lucidity again, i look around and think about reality checking, but end up talking with DCs again. They say that we are going to certain place and i didn't liked it so i went back.

8/13/2013

Key:
Lucid Dream
Waken Up
Non-lucid Dream

I did a WBTB and partly a MILD for this. I also went to sleep upstate in an RV.

I woke up in my bed at home. I did a reality check by putting my hand up to the window to observe my hands. There wasn't enough light to see, so I tried to do something, and I ended up having my vision zoom in. I saw I was in a dream. Though I never stabilized the dream, and I wasn't very aware, it lasted for a pretty good amount of time. After realizing I was dreaming, I levitated out of bed and tried to fly out the window. For some reason, I couldn't get through. I had to really concentrate to make it through. Even then, I ended up teleporting to some warehouse. I found myself running to get to a portal at the other end of the warehouse. I was also shooting at people with a "hand" gun, and they were dying. :/ When I went through the portal, I got to my backyard on the other side of the window, right in front of the deck. I started petting my dog Ti, who was right next to me. At that point the dream faded, and I woke up in my bed at home again. I thought I was actually awake now, and thus didn't do a reality check. I actually think I went through a few false awakenings like that, before waking up for real.

Dream recall from today's naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was in some weird place and there was some spirituality related talk, then weird false awakening with some loud sound in my head and i was very dizzy, almost lucid, but i woke up before i could fully realize.

Dream 2(fragments):

Was playing some platformer that then turned out to be about sonic apparently, but was really weird, some levels were like unfinished and there was 'level skip' function, then later sonic was piloting some kind of mecha.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing spiral knights and was in guild hall, there were some problems we were trying to solve and discussions, there was some new function that apparently marked people as 'spy' when they said certain words in chat. Then the guild hall turned into old style guild hall and there are some players that are invisible, then i noticed the weirdness of game and realized that i am dreaming, i tried to chat with someone that was not in the game but then gaining no response i forgot about dreaming and continued with the game.
I went to run some gate clockworks and the rooms were connected rather interestingly, at first i thought i was solo but the invisible players were apparently there and were helping fighting enemies, also stuff was a bit glitchy. Then i found danger room gate and we entered it.
