Dream recall from today's nap. Got lucid but waking memory was almost nonexistent. Also dream was pretty long, but i can recall only few fragments. I was near some kind of movie theater. Then later i was at home and there was some stuff going on. The room layout was entirely different and i was watching some movie and was talking with somebody about sleep. Some family members were distracting me and it was getting late, so i went to sleep but couldn't fall asleep, there were also two pretty big cats yawning and i was watching them, thinking that it could help me fall asleep. Next day i was looking around some room and some objects were changing location randomly, especially sconce. At first i was thinking it's just hallucinations but after a while position changes started becoming more noticeable. Shortly i realized that i am dreaming, i walk down the corridor while rubbing hands, dream becomes somewhat more stable. I walk into the room, dad is there. I walk to him and for some reason i have urge to scream at him very loudly. I walk right up to him and scream at him for a good few seconds, it is very loud, haha, and also it echoes through whole building. Satisfied, i walk down another corridor and soon dream fades out. I wake up and look at the time, did i slept for like 20 hours or something? Then i wake up properly.
Dream 1(fragments): I was at home, but most of the home was like underwater and i could breath underwater freely. The structure was pretty confusing too, like completely different and with alot of height changes and vertical passages. Also it used mostly red color. Dream 2(fragments): I was on some kind of a mission, at some point i was flying through dark elevator shaft and was searching for something at some indoor farm place. Then there was some kind of AI Machine, or something like that. Dream 3: I was at home and i was on PC, i was chatting with OmkAR and some other people about some Beyond Dreaming stuff, and apparently i had some books on that(I am not even into that IWL). While having discussion i was browsing some other forums, and there was some forum with black theme and it was about money, but there was almost none posts because newer forum was opened? Soon i was pretty tired and went to sleep. I woke up and there were like four PCs in my room, and also there was some dude on my PC. I was confused at first but then i started thinking that it's someone from that site. He then started talking with someone over internet and shortly asked me if i am ok, i say yes and he says that means his job is done and he exits the room. Then two radio alarms start singing(I don't even use alarms IWL) and i turn them off. PC randomly shuts down. I stop for a second and think what's going on and what was that all about, and then i realize that i must be dreaming, i look at my hands and there are 6 fingers on my left hand, they are like 'in pairs'. I go to balcony and it's nearly on ground level again. I jump over the railing onto the ground. It seems like outside area is very unusually open and fully asphalted, there are some cars standing or moving around. Shortly i start flying and feel wings, i attempt transformation again but no success. I accidentally close eyes, but decide to keep them closed for a bit to try teleportation, i visualize some place and, i have weird movement feeling but then i wake up twice.
Dream recall from today's nap. I am surprised i managed to fall asleep especially with people randomly entering my room and jumping by the room's door, and no i was not dreaming about people jumping by the door(did RC), it's just my family is like that... sometimes... Anyways, i was trying to fall asleep and suddenly somebody enters the room again(HI starts), at first i am like 'Oh come on, not again' but then i get familiar feeling of being in dream, i hear voice and shortly somebody starts trying really hard to wake me up by shaking. I open the eyes and ofcourse nobody's here. Dream seems to be a bit unstable so i rub hands, as i rub them i notice an increasing number of fingers, i think there were 7 or 8 fingers when i stopped rubbing. Dream became more stable, i take off headphones and get up. The room looks a bit different but mostly same except for a few furniture locations. I go towards balcony, door is open. On my way i start barely feeling what seems to be another body, i try to ignore that, but as i reach the doorway i get stuck paralyzed and my feeling of the body gets 'desynced' with how i actually see my dream body. I try rubbing hands, i can still move a bit but lack of sync of what i feel with what i see confuses me, haha. Also i notice that the balcony is completely on ground level and there are people walking and the cityscape does not looks familiar. Shortly dream destabilizes. I wake up in the other room, chandelier is missing lamps, i find it confusing and then i wake up properly.
Dream recall from today's nap. More DEILD success, though it seems to kick me into FA most of the time just like WILDs do. Still need to improve speech recall... Note to self: dream characters be really distracting again. Dream 1(fragments): I was doing some stuff at home and dad was annoying me. At some point i am in the bed with headphones on, and i take them off and realize that i am dreaming, because can still hear binaurals. I look around and notice that room has old/different layout. I said something to dad and started trying to summon darkness hound-like creature in front of me. Some small clouds of darkness appeared but faded out after a few seconds. I walked around the room and then went for balcony door, but dream faded out. I kept eyes closed and tried to return to dream... Dream 2: My eyes open up by themselves and i am back in the dream version of my room, though i am in the bed. I get up and dad is still here, i talk about something with him. Soon dream fades out. I keep eyes closed and lay still again... Dream 3: Shortly someone grabs me and starts dragging me by floor, i open eyes and see someone's hand, i bite it really hard, shortly i am free. I notice dad DC again and dream fades out.
Dream recall from today's naps. Nap #1(fragments): I was doing something with a table, but flies were distracting me. Then later i was watching new yogscast video and they were apparently making video of some lame doom mod... which was also apparently made by me according to dream( ). The mod was pretty low quality and featured one tiny map with a bunch of various enemies, sprites of which looked like they were made in mspaint. It was some kind of arena with blue walls. They have somehow triggered enemies too quickly which made boss enemy appear, but exit opened by itself for some reason, so they just ended the level. After watching i was going to nap. As i was falling asleep there were some weird voices then i felt some presence behind and some female voice. The dream started fading out, which made me realize that i am dreaming, i was about to get up from the bed but i could not stop it. Nap #2(fragments): There were news about an update for some game, we were discussing the good and bad sides of this update with SilentEternity. Then there was some farmland area in that game that i was exploring. Later there was some kind of story about some artists and there was a task to hide inside one of their houses and spy on them, but nobody was doing it. Then it ended up with a weird music/song mix.
Dream recall from today's naps and yay for 100th lucid! And yay for successful full transformation, even if it lasted only for seconds and form was unplanned. My dream recall on talk with DCs is still not good, hmmm. Still need to work on dream control. Dream 1: I wake up at home and look at hands , i can't straighten fingers no matter what i do and they are angled weirdly, which means i am dreaming. I look around and room is different, it looks somewhat like it was ages ago, and my bed is the old bed. Family is in the room as well. I walk up towards balcony door but for some reason i decide not to leave. I recall a few goals and attempt summoning and transformation a few times but it does not works well. Then i talk to family DCs about something while walking around the room, but can't recall what. I noticed pants changed color from time to time and one time i looked i had alot of pants on me for some reason. Dream fades out. I am in the bed and mom tries to wake me up for whatever reason, i get annoyed a bit and get up, then look at hands i still can't straighten fingers, so i am still dreaming. I walk a bit and then i have got a completely random thought about dinosaurs. I see room door opening and i decide to try summoning one, no result. I walk out of the room into the corridor and decide to try transformation, i pretend to be rawr'ing and i notice some mirrors in the corridor. I look into them and i am apparently some humanoid dinosaur-looking creature, at the time i see it i feel some sort of change, and my legs felt different(I think my awareness was low again or something so i didn't felt the transformation entirely). Also my rawr pretending sounded more 'actual'. For some reason i decide to walk back into the room and on the way i become back normal. I notice dream destabilizing and i rub hands, dream becomes more stable. I walk towards balcony door this time intending to go outside, but shortly dream destabilizes again and then fades out. I lay still with closed eyes intending to DEILD and shortly i feel someone touching me. Dream 2: I wake up and notice that mom was trying to wake me up again, i ignore and check hands, they are still weird, also i look around and notice that i am in my room from previous dream, i get up and try to summon some things again, but it does not works. I say something to mom DC and go towards balcony door again. I suddenly remember about expectations(Finally my dream self remembered that properly...) and decide to try summoning again, but the dream fades out.
Finally broke the the lucid length dry spell, thanks to the competition i guess. Now need to improve dream control and work on my expectations... Dream 1(fragment): I was in some theater/shop place. Dream 2(fragment): Can't recall much of start of the dream, i was doing something at home and getting messages on skype from SilentEternity, then i went to continue the nap. I was trying to fall asleep but my legs were randomly moving into some positions, i eventually fell asleep. Then i woke up and was walking to somewhere, then fadeout. I wake up again and take off headphones, i still hear binaurals so i am dreaming, the room is pretty accurate to waking life. I go towards the balcony door but it's closed, for some reason i decide against going outside this time, and i just start flying around inside, i feel the wings. Random thought comes to me to try to summon a dragon again, but nothing happens. I fly around the room in circles and each time furniture around changes, there are random tables, some food, vases, drawers, the time of day is changing between day and night as well randomly. While flying i decide to try transformation again, this time into one of the characters i thinked up for certain game, Scionox. I feel the change in my hands, i look at them and they are turned into kinda solid darkness, not exactly what i wanted but still success. They fade back to normal after a few seconds though. I do give it a few more tries but each try just reduced the number of fingers on my hands by one with no other effect. Shortly i wake up, happy and then i wake up again and do an reality check, haha, false awakenings.
Pre bed: Green tea Total sleep time: 9 hrs Dream quality and recall: went to bed very late, deep sleep tonight, and recall was hard. I have been trying to recall the whole first dream all day long but with little success. Fragment1 DILD: I am looking at a male person, concentrating on top of their head. I see a second more transparent double layer shining with color, I am so aware, lucid is an understatement. I get a great sense of understanding. There is a discussion and feelings of happiness from my side. I am also talking with PennyRoyal, he is one of my good buddies in the dream. It was very vivid, but I don't have much recall. My key impressions are positive feelings, knowledge and understanding. This was my first memorable REM or Non-REM? for the night. Fragment2: Me and somebody else are about to catch a small plane. We are in front of a very small airport, but we need to get to the other part of the airport, we are looking at a map of the area. brief natural wake, had the idea of writing down the previous dreams but was way too tired, thought I would remember it, so went back to sleep Fragment3: FA, I wake up in my bed, grab the tablet and start writing down the dream with Penny. My bf is near me, watching what I have typed, I stop writing, I wake up. WBTB: I wake up, this time jot down keywords, and spend 10 mins struggling to remember more of the dream. Reviewed tasks, but had the feeling this will be it for today. Dream4: We are in some place with my bf with a blond guy, resembling a former classmate. While he is a total stranger, but my bf doesn't mind him spending the evening with us. We talk for a long time, he is slightly arrogant. The guy decides it's time to leave so he jumps from a bridge. I watch him vanish in the air instead of falling in the water. Fragment5: Another attempt to remember the dream with Penny, but I am trying to recall during the dream itself. This time I see a water in front of me, it is a waterfall. I think the dream with Penny might have included Angel Falls, also get some feeling of happiness, yet cannot remember more even during the dream. Fragment6: A new thread started by Xanos Dream7: I am with my parents in a familiar place. I have the feeling this is the second dream in that place for today. We talk about something with my mom, and I decide to go to another room. I then go out. I feel much better now, by myself, on the street, there is a fence and obviously a zoo. A lot of people are there, I join them. I see a polar bear cub, and that people are actually going beyond the fence. I want to go to where the cub is so I also cross over and am inside the section with the animals. I look to the other side and see now a brown bear cub, it is on its back, drinking a bottle of coke. I am with a friend of mine and I tell her that the zoo keepers will think that we gave the drink to the bear and be angry with us. I try to take the bottle of coke away from the bear, but I am taking its food, it is stressed now. I am afraid of its mother, which is a much larger polar bear. We are sitting on a couch with some DCs, when the mother bear comes. I try to think of a plan to escape, without attracting her attention. I think at that point she transforms into a DC, conveys the message that she wants us to leave her territory, so I ask the DCs that we go. They get up, we are leaving, and the mother bear DC is grateful. Comments: It's been three days in a row that I have been dreaming animals, it is high time I begin to recognize this as a dream sign! Also, upon waking up don't forget to at least count fingers or do any RC, to take advantage of those FAs.

Dream recall from today's naps, got lucid at the end of REM again i think. Dream 1(fragment): I recall some indoor place and some talk. Dream 2(fragment): I wake up in my bed(the room looked almost exactly the same as in waking life), get up and walk around the room(Forgot to reality check ), then i wake up again, and i spontaneously realize that i am dreaming, but i wake up again, this time properly.

Well, it started out fairly normal, but I can't remember that part very well. I remember being tweeted by someone important, but it was like a pin, and not even on my phone xD But eventually, my family and I were going to this restaurant. When we were walking in, everyone was staring at us and making rude comments about me. My family seemed totally oblivious to this fact, and continued on. We got to a table, and there was only enough chairs for three people, and I didn't have one. Everyone was still making fun of me, so I ran out of the restaurant crying, and went into the car. I was sitting there for a while crying before my dad came out. I had my window open, and he was talking to me. Meanwhile, I was looking at posters on the wall in front of the car. There was some weird comic strip that was creepy and demonic, it scared me, but I told myself it wasn't real, and continued looking at it. then there was a picture of a bunch of dead people behind a curtain, and on a picture next to it, there was no one there, and under both pictures it said "Was this HI?" I don't know why, but that kinda scared me, too. So, once again I told myself it wasn't real, and it changed. This time, it had a picture of a man wearing a light greenish-brown trench coat, and said "Have you seen this man?" and went on to say how he was a serial killer. I looked over at my dad, and the man was walking up behind him, I yelled "Dad" trying to make him turn around, but not in time. The man came up behind him and stabbed him in the back, and left, so i was in the car, with my dad dead, leaning against it. I was horrified, and told myself that it wasn't real. I could have undid that, and had my dad back alive, but I couldn't shake the feeling of shock and horror that I was feeling so I kept saying to myself "I have to wake up. I have to wake up." eventually I saw my room, but I knew it was a false awakening (idk how i knew, I just always seem to know xD) So, I closed my eyes as if i were trying to go back to sleep, and when everything went black, i woke up for real. and once again this was one of those dreams that I've had before (minus the random part at the beginning) ...whatever goes on in my head, I don't know.
4/16/13 1. I am on a tennis court. Odd things happen, and it turns into a competition. An adversary wants to trap me on one side. I walk horizontally out into the city area. I become certain that I am dreaming. I go into a restaurant. The faint image of a man running into down an apartment hall appears. 2. I have a false awakening, and I lose my lucidity. 3. I am in a city street. I am lucid again. I am awed, and I decide not to do anything while I am lucid because I am unprepared. I decide to just view the dreamscape. I want to go to the Woodland away from the city. I begin to fly towards it. An enemy comes up to me in the field. I fly up into the air to avoid him. He taunts me and says that I will have to come down some time. He says that he will cause many nightmarish false awakenings. I say that he is just a dream character. and I wake up. 4. I am still dreaming, and I awaken to a figure slicing skin off of me in my sleep. I realize he has a face similar to that of the man of before. I still am not lucid. He is rambling and psychotic. I call the police, but instead just mumble into the phone, "Something's wrong," before dropping it with newfound lucidity. I awaken. 5. It is another FA. I go the man from the dream that is in my house, but I am illogically non-lucid. I yell at him. I am shocked. He winks at me when I complain about the FAs. At that, I become lucid, but I wake up for real.
Dream recall from today's nap. Counting this as one lucid since i am not even sure if i briefly woke up actually for DEILD attempt between them or i was trying to DEILD from FA... All short, but it's some kind of progress on getting back to longer lucid dreams anyways i guess. I wake up in my bed, take off headphones, still hear binaural beats, i get up and rub hands, dream fades out. I am again in my bed, i take off headphones realizing dream again, but as i go to window view zooms in and dream fades out. I am in my bed again and i feel that i am dreaming, i try to get up but dream fades out. I get up from the bed and i am standing in the room. I take off headphones and can still barely hear binaural beats, i go to balcony door while rubbing hands but dream fades out. Again in the bed, and already feel the dream, i get up but dream fades out. In the bed, take off headphones, lucid, get up and rub hands, go to balcony door, fade out.
A bit out of time this week, an actually not so brief update: 13 May - Me and a group of 5 kids decide to create a business. We go to register it, and the start up costs are only 100. We talk to some lawyer who says its is excellent because we are all from different countries. - I become upset and leave the house of a friend wearing slippers. It is very hard to walk with these but I don't find this unusual. - In our old neighborhood, there are lots of new stores. I go in a supermarket where they are making fresh carrot juice, it is green in color, I wonder a bit about that, but conclude that green carrot juice is ok. 14 May - In our old place, my mom keeps talking, while I want to go to sleep. I tell her that her talking activates my brain and I cannot fall asleep. It is early morning, still dark outside and snowing. - I see Dr dre on the street, he is smoking and I want to join him. Before I do, he has finished with the stuff. A skater boy pushes him hard and I think how rude kids are nowadays. I follow Dre to a building, but the cops are all over the place. I have a micro second of lucidity, remembering I read a part of Xanos's dream from yesterday and know it this the cause for this one. I lose my lucidity a second later and try to leave the building. - I am in jail which looks like a normal house, my belongings are also there. A woman calls me and I think they are finally letting me go. She informs me that she allows me to go out, so that I can find a woman called Connie Flowers or something similar. A friend from school is also accompanying me. We look for the place where Connie lives, but cannot find her. I have another second brief moment of clarity and high awareness, when I am climbing a fence, while looking for her. I continue following the dream but get the brilliant idea to ask some old ladies to show me the way to Connie's house. They all point in one direction and that excites me a lot. I am absorbed back by the dream and we go to the place the women were pointing at. - A false awakening where I jot down key words from the previous dream. I write Connie Flowers on a piece of paper. Had it not been this FA, I probably would have forgotten the name. It was so realistic that I actually looked down and expected to see it written in my notebook, but nothing was there irl. - On a street, thinking about last night's dreams. I look at the sky, and decide to star gaze. I have my blanket with me. I get interrupted by a machine washing the streets. My slippers get washed away... Note: micro-lucids, not counting Pretty busy this week, I wish my sleep could condense, so that I still get some nice REM moments.

Dream recall from today's naps. I was in the bed, but in different location(I didn't noticed it until later), i keep having an HH(Or at least HH is the closest to how i can describe it, it was bizarre), that i was getting up but it lasted only a few seconds and i was back to normal, it repeated like 7 or 8 times and then i noticed that i was in different location in the bed, somebody entered the room but before i could look i woke up properly.
Ok so to start this off I'm going to post a LD induced by WILD, from a kind-of WBTB experience. 9th May 2013. Went to bed after about 5.5 hours of sleep. Laid down on my side because I figured it would be the best position for WILDing. Closed my eyes, started repeating the mantra "relax". After some small feelings of numbness I started to get deconcentrated from repeating my mantra and slowly losing awareness and falling to some external dialogue. I cut it short by opening my eyes, since I'd figured I'd just fall asleep if I continued. Saw that the whole attempt took 15 minutes. After that I rolled over pretty frustrated that I can't mantain awareness. Kept on trying, until one moment a feeling of frustration crept over me. At the same time a surge of "energy" went through my body and I was suddenly pushed "into" my bed. I saw two people for a moment that seemed to push me into my bed. After that several more surges of energy went through, and I soon found myself in a kind of empty space. I was aware during the entire process and I knew I was entering a dream. I tried to open my dream eyes but I felt my real eyes starting to open at the same time so I opted to keep them closed. Soon enough I managed to open my dream eyes and I saw a FA style dream "waking up" in my bedroom. I was lucid though, so I looked around and saw that the room was changed up a bit, didn't have any furniture present. I looked to the window and saw it was almost dark. I looked into my hands and they looked normal, although what I saw was blurry. I remembered to use the spinning technique to stabilize the dream. The funny thing is while all this was happening I could hear my brother who was in the room while I was sleeping while being in the dream. I looked through the window and now it was nighttime. The scene changed and I don't remember what it looked like. I started talking to a dream character, a prostitute. I used her .. uhm.. services and convinced her to do it with no charge. After that the dream had faded black. I woke up in what is most likely a false awakening, being proud of myself for having a WILD. Met some friends, talked to them, and I don't remember anything else. Then I woke up for real, did a reality check, and checked the clock for time, because I always want to know when I woke up, which wasn't the case with that FA. Expect an update in about 9 hours I'll attempt a WBTB WILD, it might be successful. Cheers!
