    1. Shopping at a bookstore, and Cas in the lunchroom

      by , 10-06-2013 at 10:28 AM (Mouka's Mind Palace)
      I was in the lunchroom with some friends, and Cas from Supernatural joined us. We were all trying to play it cool, but silently freaked out among ourselves and fawned over his adorableness as he sat down and tried to figure out how lunchrooms work. I got up to get a drink, and when I came back to the table, he was gone. One of my friends, Sarah I think, got his phone number, and we kept calling it to hear his weird voice-mail greeting. But when I tried to enter his number into my contacts, my phone's auto-correct kept changing his name and wouldn't let me fix it, so I wasn't able to save his number. We left the lunchroom and went to class, and I sat down at a desk near the back. The teacher gave us some kind of math quiz, that had word questions about how long it took to travel from one place to another place. The questions were worded like "A plane leaves Las Vegas at 5pm and arrives in New York at 9pm, how long did it take to get there?" which is obviously easy to answer, but the teacher demanded we answer the questions a certain way that involved looking up the distance between the two cities and the average speed of the airplane and using that to find the answer instead of just counting the hours between 5 and 9. I was upset and I thought I failed the quiz because I didn't understand his confusing way to answer.

      Cory and I went shopping at a bookstore. He was off in the sci-fi section, and I wandered into the new age aisle and was looking at the tarot decks they had for sale. I don't remember what happened after that, but later we were both out on a porch that was covered in vines, and we were watching episodes of King of the Hill. The TV we were watching was interactive, and it would occasionally pause and show a black screen with white text. It would ask what we would like to see happen in the episode next, and give us multiple choices.
    2. Skate Park

      by , 10-01-2013 at 04:50 AM (CHiLLEN's Dream Journal)
      I was at the local skate park in my home town. I was with a few people and we were building an extra ramp.We left the skate park not long after.

      My local skate park.

      I decided to come back with Kayley, and continue what we started off. I noticed a table top in front of me that was made out of timber. I think it was something we had worked on earlier.

      I looked into the distance and saw a group of people, only to recognise a few of them. They were just standing there, looking at us. I waved them over I think.

      Eventually the group of people made there way over to us. I was talking to Pete R about what was happening. He's friend Bryce Gibbs (AFL Player) had did a mono and accidentally bumped into Pete. Pete kind of gave him the look of WTF.

      I was going to start finishing off a few things on a ramp we were building earlier, but made sure I didn't leave anything around the skate park to be taken without me knowing. I noticed I had left a few tennis racquets under a chair?

      I made my way towards, where the community centre was in real life, but it wasn't there in my dream. I walked up onto the platform leading to where we were building earlier. It was a long narrow hallway looking obstacle. I proceeded to walk to the end with Kayley. I was looking around to what I could do. I saw pieces of timber laying on top of the nailed down timber, so I was trying to move that out of the way before continuing.
      I realised that I didn't really have the right sized nails to use to hammer into the timber, only a couple were the perfect size. I saw a scene of where I was looking at nail gun nails?

      I saw a black man coming our way, he looked South African. I showed him what we were doing here.

      Someone had pushed the wall at the far end down, as if they were doing what happened in the movie ''What Dreams May Come'', where Cuba Gooding. Jr had pushed the wall down, showing Robin Williams a new world (I had watched this movie last night for the first time).

      I was looking around and noticed that we were building in between 2 house fences, which gave us about 5 metres in width to work with. I saw houses in the distance that I've never seen before.

      I saw an old lady come over from next door. I started to feel a little bad, thinking I may be building on part of her property. She began to start mowing the lawn where we were building. She reached the area where there was a platform, and she tried lifting the lawn mower on top of it. I offered her a hand with lifting the lawn mower, as she was struggling a bit. She didn't want any help. I had a good look at her, and she had an unreal amount of muscle on her for a older women. I looked at her T-shirt she was wearing, it was white with 3 layers of photos on it, 1 under another. I knew the 3 people that were in the photos but only remember 2, which was Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) in 2 of the pics. DJ was inside a wrestling/boxing ring in both of his photos. 1 of his photos he had longer hair, compared to the other. I could now see a scene in my head of the picture, but it formed into a full blown moving scene. DJ was fighting Mixed Martial Arts against someone. He was doing very well at the start of the fight, getting some good shots in. The tide turned when his opponent gave him some punishing shot back. The strikes were pin point, one after another. DJ was all over the shop, he was on the verge of getting knocked out, but showed great heart to stay on his feet. The ref (Big John McCarthy, MMA Ref) had a look at DJ closely, and noticed that the lights were on but no one was home, and stopped the fight, he thought he had taken enough punishment and saved him any unnecessary shots.

      I heard someone mention that a mod or member from Dream Views had chosen to see a movie (Harry Potter) over an important meeting or something, regarding dream view staff. They had mentioned that he really wanted to do a certain thing in his next lucid dream, that happened in the movie. I could see a scene of what exactly he was intending to do. There was a cartoon looking character (similar to a character in angry birds), it was shooting itself out of a cloud into another cloud across the sky. It was continuing this process, from cloud to cloud. Someone said that this is where he stuffs up. The cartoon character was losing momentum and was on the decline.

      I had a brief moment when I was thinking about morphing myself into a character or a body part (something like that..) to surprise the people I was with.

      I started to feel as if I was wasting my time with the building. Nothing was really getting done. I said to Kayley that we should just pack it up for the day. She looked at me with disbelief, which made me re-think about what I should do. I think I continued, until I woke up.

      Side Notes: I tried to DEILD when my alarms would go off but I kept swallowing and focusing on it too often.
    3. The Big Guy/DILD/DEILD Attempt

      Time Lucid - 30 seconds

      I was in my house, but it looked different. I saw a big guy, I think it may have been Brendan McC(BM). He was on choking a guy(Guillotine choke), half the size of him, in length and width.. I had to step in and help this guy out, so I jumped on top of him and started raining elbows to his face. I felt the strikes were not as forced as I wanted them to me, but as I focused on them, I got into the rhythm and was now throwing quick elbows, trying to cut his face up.

      I was now in my bed room and I was expecting BM to come in and say something to me. His friend Clint S, came into the room. He said a few things which were nice and he smiled.

      I must have become aware in my dream, and did a RC by looking at my hand. I think it was smaller then usual, but wasn't convincing. I tried my nose plug for the first time in a dream and it worked perfectly. I smiled, and kept plugging my nose as It felt really cool to do.

      I got up and went down the hallway. My penis got the better of me and I was looking for some females to have sex with. I started thinking about how the lucid would last for a long time (in a way, trying to convince myself). I tried turning a light on, expecting it to turn on but nothing happened.

      I started to feel myself waking up. As I woke up, I could have attempted a DEILD but decided to write the dream down, as I've been on a bit of a dry spell for a week. I didn't end up writing anything down and went back to sleep. I was now in the same dream but wasn't lucid. I saw my old cat Lily come from under the bed. She looked a bit different. I patted her head and felt scabs on her head, which were a lot worse then when she had them in reality. I was pretty amazed that she was here with me, because she had ran away from our previous house. We had moved again after that.

      Side note.
      As the last dream ended, I attempted a DEILD. I think I left it a bit late. I saw imagery in the top left hand corner, which was pretty small. I tried focusing on the dream scene but it faded straight away (mistake, should have passively been aware of it)
    4. Friends and invisibility, renting a vacuum, and a bad school day

      by , 09-24-2013 at 07:43 PM (Mouka's Mind Palace)
      My friends and I were having one last get-together before I moved away from the area. They were my old friends from my last few years of high school, and we were all sitting at this big picnic table that was out on the very edge of a wooden pier in the water. To get to the table, you had to cross another huge loading dock that was covered in shipping containers and fish, and also a a swinging wooden bridge that connected the two and was very wobbly. My friends were asking why I had to leave so soon and suggested I stay a few more days, but I knew I had to leave. I was staying in a big RV in an empty grassy field next to the dock, so technically I could've stayed as long as I wanted, but I really wanted to leave. We ate food and talked about the past for a while, and then I headed back to my RV. As I was crossing the wooden bridge, I heard them talking to each other, saying things like "He didn't have to leave so soon!" and "Well, he's never coming back, he never wanted to live in the south anyway." I went into the RV to pack up and secure some things, and noticed someone had put bacon in my pantry instead of in the fridge/freezer. It was still cold so I put it back in the freezer, and then took something else out of the freezer to put in the pantry. Then I realized I'd forgotten something back at the picnic table, so I ran back over there. But when I crossed the wooden bridge, the table was no longer on a pier anymore, it was on a hardwood floor with shelves in surrounding it. This didn't seem strange to me, though. I walked up to my friends but they didn't say anything to me, and that's when I looked at my reflection in the glass covering over one of the shelves and realized I was invisible and nobody could see me. I thought, "If I can just scare them, they'll be able to see me!" so I grabbed a little figurine on a shelf, broke off its ears and turned its eyes black so it looked super creepy, and then made it move in front of one of my friends. She screamed when she saw it, and immediately afterwards was able to see me. Then she told the others I was there invisible, and they all in turn let me scare them so they could see me as well.

      It was late at night, and Cory and I were out looking for a place that would rent us a steam vacuum. I guess there was a huge stain in our carpet and we couldn't wait until morning to clean it up. We came across a stip mall that had a Stanley Steemer store, but I said they wouldn't be open and we should just go elsewhere. Cory said we should go check anyway, and it turned out they were open, but when we went up to the service counter, he immediately asked to reserve a copy of the new RoboCop movie on DVD. I was totally shocked because we only had the money for the vacuum and he'd just wasted it to reserve a movie that didn't come out until next year, so we went home vacuum-less.

      It was the first day of school, and I was sitting in art class. The teacher had assigned us a project involving mixed media, and I'd chosen construction paper, highlighters, and colored pencils. I was trying to make a portrait of Yinepu, and worked very hard on it because I wanted it to be perfect, but I couldn't get the pieces of construction paper I'd cut to stay properly and had to resort to using the pencils for his head, and I was disappointed. I wanted to go back and fix it, but the class was over. As I was walking through the halls, everyone kept looking at me and giggling, and I had no idea why. After a few minutes of enduring it, I grabbed one of the gigglers and asked her what was so funny about me that made everyone laugh, and she pointed to the area above my head. I reached up but there was nothing there, and I realized they were seeing something I couldn't see, so I ignored them. Then I realized I had a lot of books from all my different classes, but I hadn't rented a locker yet, so I went up to the office and asked to rent one. The lady said it would be $65 for the year but when I paid the money, she said lockers wouldn't be assigned until tomorrow. I said "But what am I supposed to do with all these books?! I can't carry them all everywhere!" but she wouldn't help. Then I went to gym class, but the teacher wasn't there yet. There was a magazine rack next to the bleachers that had a copy of a Superman magazine with a drawing of Wonder Woman dressed in a Superman outfit. I was the only one there, so I just went out onto the middle of the basketball court and started rolling around like a cat. Then another student came in, a man with glasses who looked too old to be in school, and he asked me what I was doing. I told him "The teacher said today was act like a cat day." to see how many people I could get to join me in my silliness, and he actually believed me and started crawling around the floor. Soon, more students came, and the whole class was on the court acting like cats.
    5. Qur'ans at an antique mall

      by , 09-21-2013 at 04:23 PM (Mouka's Mind Palace)
      (This is from September 15.)

      I was shopping at some kind of flea market / antique mall. I walked through the various booths with Cory and saw some interesting things, like some very tiny props used for a dollhouse or something. There was a mini table with a mini stick of butter and sliced loaf of bread and other foods. It really struck me because it was so realistic looking even though it was tiny. They were in a glass case with some other things, and I wondered if they were big enough to use as props for my BJD Ian, but Cory said they were too small. There was also a tiny piano the size of a finger and it was playable. As we walked around the booths, we wound up outside some doors to the next area of the market. There were tons of people sitting around waiting to be let through the doors, but they were only letting in five people at a time. They had a TV set up for people to watch while they waited. The whole area was very rustic looking with wooden walls and lots of old advertising signs all hung up. We finally got to the front of the line and the people letting others through the doors were my old friends from middle school! I saw Jessica ushering people through. When it was our turn they let Cory through but he was number five, so we were separated. I went through after a while and couldn't find him, so I went to the book area and looked at the old religion books. I found an awesome book on rituals for Egyptian gods and got that, then I saw a huge section of nothing but copies of the Qur'an and I thought I would find a nice one since I've never read it before. As I was looking, this guy came over and looked through them with me. I asked what would be a good translation and he kept pointing to different things but not speaking so I thought he was a mute. I found a really nice one and put that with my Egyptian book and another book that was red but I don't remember what it was about. Then Cory found me and asked if I was ready to go, so I gathered them and headed out. As I walked away, the guy I thought was mute said goodbye to me and I was surprised.

    6. Shooting for the Stars

      by , 09-17-2013 at 01:13 PM
      I been here before... This was a home where I resided after a long drive through the great plains surrounded by a tremendous forest filled up mostly with roads! There were so many layers one could come by driving all the way through it. Each layer of road would take you higher up until eventually you reach the clouds fogging some of the roadways up there. Fortunately, I was at the very bottom and at the center of this gigantic stadium of roads.

      There was a home located there, I've been there before. It made no sense to me how I got there, but I paid close attention to how it felt being back at this same place.

      Unlike the other dream, there was no one at the residence this time. This time, I'm leaving the land and I'm only back here to make sure everything is fine before I go. I saw the same layout of the home as I did in the other dream. I didn't have time to check for specific items or details of the room, so I continued my way outside, where I had discovered a new place to explore.

      I walked outside to see if I found anything interesting. I saw parts of the gigantic stadium of roads, and I also saw a group of women outside the home performing religious chants. I also noticed the weather changing slightly from sunny to a bit misty. I walked past the religious people and made my way towards one of the most beautiful scenes I see in a lot of my lucid dreams!

      Once I entered a new scene, I noticed a whole class of students walking towards the area I was heading to. Some of these people, I already know but a few others, I do not. We were walking on grass now, beautiful, brightly green covered grass. We walked alongside a fence that eventually led us to a dead end. At this dead end, there was a wall set horizontally from it. This wall had a faded yellow color to it. I also noticed that this wall led towards a gap between one side of a fence, the one where me and the class where standing by, and one end that was about 20 feet away from the fence next to us. This made me recognize something. I looked up to get a better look at the view across the other fence and noticed a big green, grassy field, along with a set of buildings and playgrounds beyond it. At that moment, I realized I was at Fairfax Elementary School.

      Fairfax is like the death bed for me. Dreaming of this place over and over again, experiencing astonishing events with past relationships with people, and remembering it to be the beginning of my timeline, I am truly motivated to keep lucid dreaming to keep my spirits up.

      I stood on this field and witnessed its wonderful moments of peace. Me and the others had then finally decided to go back home. There were people I seen across the field around the playgrounds. They all clapped their hands as we were heading towards the back of a school. We all clapped as well. I raised my voice and began shouting out of happiness. My voice raised the excitement from the others on the playgrounds. We would longer able to see them after entering the exits of school grounds.

      Although it may not seem so beautiful now, this next moment had me really joyful minutes after waking up from the dream, especially when I was in it. I saw one end of the school to my left and the other classrooms at my right. There was also a forest in the direction we were heading. I noticed a lot of vividness at this time. I paid close attention to the quietness of this area, as well as how many people were there at the time. There was a janitor walking around the back of the school and a few other students walking towards their classes. I heard almost nothing while I was walking past this scene. I ponder over it only because this was the first school I ever attended, and I happen to dream a lot of it. If I could, I think I could thoroughly remember what it all looked like...

      Before I knew it, I entered the forest and discovered a new set of fears that eventually made me want to wake up out of the dream.
    7. 9/8/2012: fragments

      by , 09-08-2013 at 03:41 PM
      Can't remember dreams from yesterday (the 7th) at all, just making note of it here. I woke up in bad shape that morning so it probably killed any recall I had. All I have from last night is fragments and impressions.

      1.
      I was in some nice coffee shop and my little dog Rat was there too, nuzzling into a doggie bed on the floor by my table.

      2.
      Something about Disney World Mario???

      3.
      I was making cheese-filled manicotti on the floor. It had some strange ingredient but I can't remember it.

      4.
      I was looking at a Tumblr blog for Homestuck but all the images on it were disturbing, and there was an autoplayer on it playing creepy music.

      5.
      Some kind of foursome relationship going on between Karkat, Gamzee, Kanaya and Dave (Homestuck). They were all lying together in this big bed holding hands. Not sure what quadrant Kanaya was in there but she was between Gamzee and Dave.

      6.
      I was trying out some game with a Skyrim flavor but it had Varric (Dragon Age) narrating the opening scene and the last thing he says is, "This...is my story." I don't know what was going on but hell yeah, I'd like to play a game all about Varric!!

      7.
      Can't remember this one too clearly but Keitorin and I were in some club at a not-school along with Fili and Kili, and we were...ahem, 'taking turns' with the guys for some reason. No really, there was an actual reason, we had pamphlets and everything but I can't remember!! It was real fun though, we were all joking and laughing, treating it like some goofy science experiment. Then the dream kinda changes after I look out a window onto this area just outside some castle walls and we're all out there and in some run-down buildings being attacked by dudes on the wall and I'm trying to keep these two kids inside so they don't get hurt.

      notes: *big shrug!* I dunno, but I'm glad there was so much fandom in there. One of these days, I WILL have a chat with Dave, mark my words!

    8. 9/6/2013: fragments: drawing rocks into being, game mod and mom's job issues

      by , 09-06-2013 at 02:29 PM
      No entry for yesterday since I'd rather it not be public, but for documentation's sake I did dream about Dave Strider again like I'd intended! Bro, too! I also became lucid briefly to change the scene twice so I was pleased about that :) Tags/categories for that dream are: lucid, memorable, nightmare, fandom: Homestuck. Now for last night's:

      1.
      Jake trying to get our mom to buy him a subscription to something on the computer, a game? She won't because she's too busy with job stuff at the moment, and Jake harasses her, asking exactly what she's been doing this whole time since she has yet to gain a single client.

      After/at the time this is happening (idk) I'm looking at a Dragon Age mod for a new character race called 'Fajjyn'?? The character is a slightly creepy-looking female with deep eyes, grey skin and bright red hair. Then I hear a short police siren and when I look outside I see the light from a flashlight shining on houses, but the light is pink.

      2.
      I'm on the floor drawing with Brandie, using paper and pencils. Somehow she is really fast and near-perfect, and I get frustrated because whatever I draw isn't that good. She tries showing me her technique by drawing a rock, and I copy it but the rock looks too flat. We practice more til I create some decent-looking rocks, but unlike her small, smooth stones, mine are large, black and jagged things that pile up in sheets, literally! As I keep drawing, the rocks become real.


      notes: During 1, I was feeling upset with Jake for acting that way but I wonder if it's my subconscious worrying that my mom will back out on everything after she's put in so much effort. The drawing dream definitely came from my worrying about being good enough when it comes to my art. But it was cool to draw something into existence, I'd like to try that again sometime!

      Also, I had intended to dream about Dave again, but if it happened, I don't recall it.

    9. Candy stores, and a cicada in my pocket

      by , 09-05-2013 at 01:26 AM (Mouka's Mind Palace)
      (This is from August 31.)

      I was running through the mall, chasing after someone. I passed a big candy store, and ran through the food court. At the end of the food court was a second, smaller candy store and I went inside. Amy was there working behind the counter, and another friend I can't remember was also there buying candy. She was buying lots of chocolate, so I bought some peanut butter cups and then we both shared our candy with each other.

      Something was wiggling around in my jeans pocket and I realized it was a big scary cicada. I ran around screaming but everyone else was also too afraid to get the cicada out of my pocket for me, so I ran into the bedroom closet to take off the pants. I thought if I held the pocket shut while I took them off and then ran out and shut the closet door quickly, the cicada wouldn't fly at me. So I ran into the bedroom but it was raining in there, so I grabbed a stuffed teddy bear and put it on my head to keep from getting rained on, and luckily it wasn't raining inside the closet. I took off the pants and ran out the closet and then out of my apartment, but I'd forgotten to close the closet door so I knew the cicada was waiting in there for me. Then this weird creeper guy walked up to my apartment door and stared at me funny, and I realized I was naked from the waist down which was obviously uncomfortable so I ran away. Apparently we were all about to go on vacation because I had stuff packed in boxes elsewhere, so I ran to the boxes to find pants. The boxes were in some kind of airport or bus station that I was running through, and I remember running past lots of benches and a huge cat scratching post that was shaped like a pirate ship. When I was putting new pants on, I noticed two big ticks on my leg, so I grabbed them and threw them in the car thinking that the heat in the car would kill them for me. Jenny was upset and demanded I go back into the apartment to get some toys she forgot to pack. So I went back, but I remember going inside and seeing the cicada on the wall and then running back out scared.

      I can't remember much of what feels like the longest dream, was too tired to try writing it down after waking up last night :/

      1.
      Something to do with a witch and this big company that was working for evil but no one knew except me and a few others. I tried escaping this huge building and made it outside where it looked like some kind of exotic zoo area.

      2.
      I was in a bar/food court? At the table with Dave, Rose, John and Jade (from Homestuck). There was a guy at the next table who was being really obnoxious so I got up and asked him to keep it down. He argues with me, insulting me. I reply, "I said, 'be quiet'." and take the lid off his drink and pour it over his lap (careful now, badass right here). Then a fight that feels like a musical number for some reason breaks out and I get shoved towards Dave and he balances me.

      3.
      I go to visit Brandie, but she's lying in bed acting ill. She says she's been in labor for a few hours, but she's never had sex. I suggest maybe it's calcium build-up. (wtf she's not a coffee maker???)

      notes: Wish I could remember more but at least I had a dream about Dave! Really wanted some kind of fandom dream so I tried focusing on him last night. I'd hoped to actually talk with him, but I guess getting his own close-up and catching me works too :P

    11. Sept 2, 2013: Fragments, school/urban legends/weird home stuff

      by , 09-02-2013 at 03:36 PM
      Forgot to get some paper by my bed last night. So these fragments are just as detailed as I can recall from images and impressions :/

      1.
      I was in some school, looked kind of like my old high school but it wasn't. I had just showered in this enormous locker room area that for some reason flowed into the pool area like privacy wasn't an issue. Was looking around for a hair dryer and this nice DC who is apparently a student but looks older, like my age, comes over and helpfully points out this huge machine up high on the wall where you press a button for the kind of service you want. Of course, I felt silly for not realizing at first :P Then I notice you have to pay upwards of $5 for any service, but neither I nor the girl have any money. She tells me I could go to the east end of the school where the dryer might already be on?? because supposedly there's this fancy guy who leaves his electric car plugged in in the parking lot all the time and so the school draws a lot of power off of it. (dream logic is fascinating, isn't it?)

      So then the DC and I walk over to the pool to sit with our feet in and she starts telling me about the legend surrounding that fancy guy. (I can't remember specifics at all, but it's some kind of conspiracy that a few kooky people have dedicated themselves to researching--not scholars, just nerds. I've got this image of a small, woodcraft door, like for a large dollhouse, but with no handle.)

      2.
      (Here, I am in my home but it is most definitely not where I actually live.) The main room looks like a giant garage with a concrete floor, and there is lots of stuff littering the floor, like toys, garbage and other things. There are lots of children around, my relatives?? (I didn't know them at all.) My mom and Alberto were there, I think Jake and Saundra too. I was inviting Alice into my home, and we went to my bedroom, where Keitorin was sitting in a chair in the corner, reading. My bedroom wall had a ton of pictures and stuff on it, drawings and cut-outs. Alice said something? and I jokingly replied that she could have one of my 'sterile babies', of which there was a pile of outside my room. (They looked like medium-sized lobsters and I have no idea how they were supposed to be 'my sterile babies' or what that even means omg) Then my 'dad', a DC, comes by to chat. He....looks like a giant lobster :////

      And that's it! I don't even know what to say about those, wow.

    12. A Florentine Courtyard, Electricity

      by , 09-01-2013 at 02:24 PM (The Redeeming Dreamer)
      9/1/2013, 10:00-9:00

      I got up once at like 4:25, and stayed up for 5 minutes. Then went to sleep for the rest of the night. Once again, no dreams remembered before I got up. I also used the mantra, "I remember dreams when I wake up." I got 1 dream and a fragment:

      Dream 1:

      I was at Downing school (the place I've been working for the last couple of weeks in real life). Me, I, J, and Jo were going out the back way to the right of the building. We past the "courtyard" in front of the field. We probably turned left at the next intersection. We kept going down that way until we found a courtyard next to a pretty big street. The courtyard looked nice, with grayish bricks laid on the ground. It had a light post around it, and it kind of looked like it belonged in Florence (it probably doesn't exist in real life, either).When we got there, I and J left. Then it was just me and Jo. I asked for her number, and she said she was too poor to hang out with me . Then, N showed up and Jo eventually left. The dream ends there.

      Dream 2:

      Something about electricity and lightning.

      I also had a few dreams and fragments that I forgot before I could do this, and these are the two that I remembered in the end. I slept upstate today.

    13. Hospital :/

      by , 08-28-2013 at 04:29 PM
      Dream 1 :[COLOR="#800080"]I was in a hospital room with 2 nurses that were waiting to give me an injection(For lungs or something). I was very scared by it and I kept asking a lot of people if it hurts.I eventually got to mom and asked her if it hurts she said it won't hurt and then she did an example on herself.She did an injection on her wrist and I somehow gained courage from that.I went back to the room and I told them I'm ready to take that injection.She said okay(The injection had some bloody red substance in it). I expected her to do it in my wrist but instead of the wrist she pushed the needle in my shoulder.Then I felt the substance in my back(It was cold) and then moving from my back to my chest .[/COLOR]

      Dream 2 : [COLOR="#800080"] I was in my room and it was dark.I had some kind of wand in my hand.I wasn't alone but with 2 friends.We were trying to fight some kind of monster and in those wands we needed energy that could be taken from basically,everything.We wanted to attack him with the wand but he kept taking the energy(I somehow knew that would happen) and I kept touching a lot of things and my wand gained energy from those things.While me and my friend were fighting,the other one was hiding under the couch with a wand(He wasn't a human but some kind of green creature :/).It got light outside,and then my friends were leaving and I put my telephone to charge.[/COLOR]

    14. (Not) My Room

      by , 08-27-2013 at 10:52 PM (Nelzi's DJ)
      The first is a dream about 'my room' from last night. The second is a fragment about cats and the third is a false awakening fragment.

      • I find myself in 'my' room. I have had some friends visiting me, but now they are gone. Only one of them is still here, I think he is going to sleep here. It feels like it has been a nice evening together and we are tired and ready to go to bed.

        I start cleaning up the mess that the others have left behind, there are so many small things and pieces all over the place. I decide to just put it all onto my ironing board and then to just put away the ironing board. There are some beautiful group photos of me with my friends among the things, they evoke nice memories, so I handle them with care, while I do the rest of the cleaning very fast and sloppily.

        I look over to the couch and see my friend sleeping already. He lies on my big, red pillow. I wake him up and tell him that I want to fold out the couch, so that there is space for both of us. I begin to prepare our bed, and as I turn around for one second, it suddenly is already finished and he is sleeping. Peaceful, delighting sight.

        I walk around in the room. I tell myself that this is my room, so of course it is familiar to me, including everything in it. In one corner there are ~10 paintings from my mother. I think 'She is getting really good, I like her paintings'. I feel thankful for having the paintings here with me, they are very colorful. I put them aside to make a little space in the room. In another corner there are two empty beds, I recognize them as the beds I and my brother had, when we were children. I think it's funny that they are still around and I wonder why. Then I walk over to the couch with my friend and go to bed.

        My dream logic did not even consider using the beds for sleeping. I had never seen this room in waking life before, but in the dream it felt so familiar and it was clear to me that it was my room. There was something from every room I ever had in my life in that dream room.

      • There is a wooden bed. It has no mattress, it is only hard wood, but somehow it feels comfortable to sit on it. I lay down a blanket and put a neat little kitty on it. I pet the little grey kitty and it seems to enjoy it very much. It stretches out and I pet it's stomach.

        I grew up with cats, but I have not had a cat since I live at my current place. I would love to have a cat.

      • I 'wake up'. It is my bed, it must be late in the morning, it is already bright outside. The air is fresh and cold, because the window was open during the night. I hear the birds twittering outside. Suddenly there is a small bird in my bed. I am surprised, but very delighted. It hops around in the bed, trying to catch a fly. Eventually it succeeds and it looks proud of itself with the insect hanging out of it's beak.

        I like false awakenings, they are always funny in some way. I have had quite a few of them recently, I should remember to RC when I wake up, it seems to me that I forget that very often.

    15. The ballad of Piper and Sabrina, and a casual wedding

      by , 08-23-2013 at 07:48 PM (Mouka's Mind Palace)
      The dream didn't have me in it at all, instead it followed a story-line involving Piper from Orange Is The New Black. She was arrested and sent to prison, a different prison than the one in the show, and was worried about how she'd fit in. When she first walked into the cafeteria she met a smiley happy woman who invited her to sit down and pointed out the different prisoners and their names. She pointed to a really tall muscly lady with shoulder-length blonde hair and said that was her girlfriend, and that everyone was always surprised because the muscle lady's voice didn't match her body. The lady stood up and started yelling at some people, but her voice was super soft and high-pitched like she sucked on helium. Piper totally laughed and imagined the lady as if she had a normal voice, and had a thought of her in a suit and tie with a deep voice bossing people around. Out in the yard during recess she wandered around exploring. The yard was huge and fenced in, and had lots of trees and closed off wooded areas and locked doors. She found an opening through one of the closed off areas and walked past it, which led to a confusing labyrinth of trees, rocks, and barbed wire fence. She took a wrong turn trying to get back to the main yard from the maze and wound up in a small clearing that was surrounded by trees on all sides except the north side was against a tall wooden fence with a door on it. She walked up to the door and looked through the cracks and was shocked when she saw it led right back to the main yard. However, she couldn't get through it because it was locked, so instead she had to go all the way through the maze back to the other side. But she resolved that, because that clearing was hidden and unknown, she would make that her private reading space. Back in the cafeteria she met another girl whose name began with an S, I think it was Sabrina or something like that, and she was very tan and had long bouncy black hair and lots of black eyeliner on. Sabrina kept flirting with her, and then Piper wound up having a crush on Sabrina. Everyone in the cafeteria was giggling about it and making childish jokes. The next time they were in the yard, Piper took Sabrina, who was carrying a china tea set, through the maze to show her the secret clearing she'd found. When they got there, they sat down and had tea. One of the tea cups had a stick of red dynamite in it that didn't work, but Sabrina carried it around for good luck. Suddenly, the guards started taking a roll call and Piper could hear them through the door on the fence, and they both freaked out because they were in a closed off forbidden area. Piper hoped that she could just say "Here!" when the guards called her name and they wouldn't actually look to see where she was. So the guards called for Piper, she replied, and one of the guards, a mustached guy with sunglasses, sighed and walked right up to the locked door Piper and Sabrina were behind. He asked what they were doing back there and Piper made up an excuse and said they'd gotten lost and the door was all they could find. He seemed to buy it, because he went to find the keys, came back, and let them out and sent them back inside with the others. As the two girls walked through the main yard, the prisoners saw their tea set and they saw the dynamite stick and thought it was a vibrator, so they all got the wrong idea and started spreading rumors about Piper and Sabrina's secret "sex area". Back in the cafeteria, in order to gain the prisoners' respect back, Piper aimed to show them she was good at baseball and would make a good addition to the prison baseball team. She found a big yellow bat, and kept picking up small pocket-sized rainbows with My Little Ponies on them, threw them in the air, and tried to hit them across the room with her bat. She missed, but blamed it on the fact she was throwing the rainbows herself. A random lady came over and took the rainbows and pitched them to Piper, and she hit every single one of them. Everyone was impressed. Weirdly enough, when the pony rainbows were hit and landed on a wall, they would transform into a big wall mural of whatever pony was on that particular rainbow, so the walls were covered in My Little Ponies. News came from the guards that Piper was to be transferred to a different prison, and everyone laughed when they found out the name of the prison. When she asked why, Sabrina said that was the prison where the rich people went, and the prisoners started making jokes about how difficult life in prison for them must be when they can get daily massages and spa treatments. Piper was pretty excited at that, and they transferred her out. On her first day at the new prison, she walked into the cafeteria expecting a bunch of girly girls she could discuss beauty treatments with. But the moment she said hello, everyone in the room started throwing food and trays at her, and she realized the people here were meaner and more "prisoner-y" than they were at the last prison. She sat down next to an older Asian woman with spiky short black hair who wore too much lipstick and blue eye shadow, and the woman just rolled her eyes at her and said it was a difficult place to be.

      Cory and I were getting married, and somehow my old friends from middle school caught wind of it, probably from Facebook. I was super worried about them coming because I thought they'd laugh at me since I wasn't the same person I used to be back then and I didn't want them to hate me. So I decided I'd pretend to be like an older version of my grade school self while they were there. I remember talking to each of them on the phone. Before they came over, I tried to calm myself by playing video games. The one I remember in particular was this Dragonball Z RPG/fighting game that I played often as a kid so it was nostalgic (in the dream, it wasn't an actual game that existed in real life) and when my old friends came over, some of them actually wanted to play with me. Sarah was really good at it and we played the game together for a while. Then the time came for the wedding, but Cory and I weren't wearing regular wedding clothes, we were both just wearing t-shirts and jeans. The place where the wedding was being held looked suspiciously like the clearing from the Piper dream I'd just had, and I started thinking "Wait a minute, this looks familiar..." but before I could connect the dots to realize I was dreaming and become lucid, I woke up.
