19/12/15 Wake up after 3.5 hours. Dream 1: I was at a medieval town with a bunch of other people, some I knew from school and others I didn't. I believe we were receiving our atar rankings, and some people were talking about atar thieves. I got mine, then all of a sudden a few people started trying to steal it. I started fighting back, but then a few of the strangers from earlier came and protected me and my atar. Dream 2: Following the vein of the first dream, I was with some friends at school complaining about year 12. Despite this we ended up volunteering at a stall in the school, selling some sort of food for raising money. Back to sleep, next wake up another 3.5 hours. Dream 3: I was playing basketball at a nice, large and sunny court. We travelled there in a car for a bit, then got out and started playing. We were going alright in the first half, but in the second half it started going downhill and we ended up losing. While that was disappointing, after the game I saw a bunch of people from the year above me playing so I hung out with them for a while. Dream 4: I was on a small island, surrounded by ocean as far as the eye could see. The only other thing on the island besides me and sand was a small boat, a dinghy really. I pushed it out of the bank, hopped in and grabbed the only oar. I started slowly rowing in the direction I hoped was the shore. I was rowing for a while when a girl materialized out of nowhere, shocking me and causing me to fall out of the boat. By the time I recovered she was already rowing the boat away, leaving me treading water. Luckily I had rowed enough so I could see the dark blur of land far in the distance. So, I began to swim towards it. It seemed like hours passed, with me almost ready to give up, before I finally made it to the shallows before collapsing and being helped onto the beach by other people. Dream 5: Prince William, Kate and co. were on a pier, playing with some dolphins I think and having a nice photo opppurtunity. They were doing this because the royals were in some pr trouble with prince Phillip saying some horribly racist thing a few days prior.
15/12/15: Dream 1: I was at a pier with a lot of people from school. Everyone else was making their way into a boathouse type building, however me and a girl stayed in a car. She was asking me some questions, and it slowly morphed into a more and more sexual situation. Eventually she made her intentions clear and we got it on in the car. Afterwards we got out and entered the boathouse like everyone else, no one having any idea of what just happened. Inside there was a party going in with lots of food and drink. I joined in some party game for a little bit before going to the food. There was a giant tub full of pancakes, so I grabbed a few and started munching away. Some people laughed at me a bit but it was all in jest. There was a cut in the scene and we were all back at school, during lunchtime. Feeling extra confident after the party, I held peoples gazes and smiled at pretty girls. I went to my locker area and saw an old teacher who sounded just like one of my teachers from a few years ago talking to a student. He was talking about auditions for an upcoming school play, and how the student shouldn't be nervous about it. Dream 2: I was at the MCG with tons of other people. The details are a bit fuzzy, but I remember there was some danger, like a collapse or natural disaster or something. I was being offered a job when people started screaming and trying to evacuate. I started to join them when I saw five people in coloured suits fly around, dressed like power rangers. They were attempting to save people but were stuffing up sometimes, causing as much harm as good. Eventually people yelled at them to stop and explain themselves, so they all took off their masks. Surprisingly, they were all young teenagers, looking scared and nervous. I slipped away from the crowd and made it outside, trying to meet up with people in the park outside. Fragment: Playing a game, having to sneak and jump around an area, sneak past guards etc. This was a long and detailed dream but I forgot it when I woke up and only just remembered it now. I was with a team and the enemy were sort of fish creatures.
14/12/15 Dream 1: Me and my family were out somewhere getting a makeover. It took a while, and then afterwards we drove home. My mum got out of the car and walked away. I saw a strange looking man come towards the car. He hesitated a bit when I saw him, then started walking even faster towards the car, I realised, to try and steal it. He tried to jump into the empty drivers seat, but I reached across and kicked him out before yelling for help. The guy ran off then, so we narrowly thwarted that attempt . Dream 2: Fragment, playing a video game in a sort of Egyptian themed dungeon.
(My recall wont be as good as it took a bit of a backseat behind finding out my year twelve results this morning :p) 14/12/15 1: Fragment now, having lunch with my grandparents 2: I was having Christmas as a kid. The family were at a holiday house/hotel, the tv was on with Christmas shows and I was back to being about 6 or 7 again. 3: Fragment, I was roaming a renaissance/gothic town at night, filled with vampires. Oh wait some recall is flooding back haha. I was accepting an espionage mission from an old woman hidden away in a building; I was to go to the local inn and try and find out who the leaders of the town were. When in the inn however people were very suspicious and I ended up being caught out. Not sure what happened next. 4: Me and my brother were hanging about near a lake. It was summer and we were in boardies, and there a large rubber tyre floating around at the edge. We swam for a while until we saw there was a bit of a waterfall. My brother went back and got the tyre, then sat on it and made me push him over the waterfall. He fell a few metres and bounced off once he hit the bottom, lucky to not injure himself. 5: Fragment about JaclynGlen getting a breast reduction (?) 6: I was at a school assembly, bored. I tried flirting a bit and then was talking to some friends, until a girl stepped up to speak. She was meant to deliver a speech/read a poem in Macedonian, but she kept on making mistakes and eventually got so embarrassed she stopped and refused to start again.
11/12/15 Dream 1: I was at a schoolies party with some friends at a holiday house. I can't remember too much of this dream anymore but I do remember pulling a bit long white and blue crusty thing from behind my teeth, sort of like congealed detergent, which was pretty disgusting. (Ps. I remembered this dream full of detail after I woke up only 2 hours after falling asleep, the earliest I think I've ever had a fully fledged dream, I have just forgot some of the details in the intervening space.) Dream 2: I was going to a college, and instead of picking a science degree like I normally would, I decided to go for a special arts degree instead. I had the choice between three degrees, and the one I chose was about studying the history of magic (lolwut). I ended up slightly regretting my choice though, preferring the degree someone else did (forgot what it was called). All in all we had a welcome ceremony where the three students doing the three different courses got paired up with their teacher and so forth. My teacher was youngish man who had a worldly air about him but also seemed quite strict. The lessons began and I progressed through the course, feeling like something was missing and having some regret. In the canteen one day I as sitting by myself as our area of study didn't really mingle with other people and I saw a bunch of science students come in, which triggered more pangs of regret. The next lesson my professor surprised me by making it a practical test of my magical abilities, putting me in an old, abandoned wing of the building and setting up a maze within the dust hallways and stacked furniture. Several magical creatures and obstacles were conjured up by him which I had to defeat/overcome. I was sufficiently adept at the course, I just struggled with motivation and wondering if I had made the right decision. Some time passed, and I was in front of a fish and chips shop near my house, talking about our respective courses and stuff with some people. Dream 3: I was at a house party thrown by Sofia Vergara where we were all outside playing a sort of puzzle game. There was a vast garden with a concrete circle in the middle, split up into 12 or so segments. Behind each of the segments and also strewn across the garden were various monuments and objects. Each of the guests and Sofia stood in one of the segments and the game began; we had to use the clues of whosever turn it was to find out what object in the garden we were looking for. It happened to be Sofia's turn, so she was giving us clues about a monument with significance. I thought it might have been a menhir in a shallow pool which I could see, but it wasn't. Eventually the time ran out and she declared herself victorious, revealing that the answer was... the Taj Mahal, a smaller version of which was hidden behind a hedge far away in the garden. We all protested that we couldn't see that and it was unfair as she actually knew the contents of the garden, but she refused to listen an continues celebrating her win. Dream 4: I was involved in some European news channel, crossing across all of the countries in Europe. There was a massive storm brewing, an I was shown reporters from all across the continent talking about the storm and its significance etc.
My mind is taking me back to school 10/12/15 Dream 1: Something about being at a country school during the day and there being a fire alarm going off. Fragment: Something about being at a university at night time. Dream 2: I dreamed about my school graduation. Everyone was all dressed up fancily, yet for some reason the only way into the graduation was through a giant toboggan/water slide. It was 2 to a cart, so me and someone else jumped in and off we went, hemmed in on either side by other people. Eventually however everyone had stopped as the slide was blocked up. Our coordinators voice came through speakers and told us that there was a blockage due to flooding at the bottom of the slide. He said they would try to fix it but most likely wouldn't be able to so the guys should take off their suit jackets in case they got ruined. While this was happening inexplicably a black and white cat appeared and started jumping in between the carts, nestling up against people and seeking attention. After a while everything started moving again and we eventually got to the bottom of the slide. It was indeed flooded and we had to tippytoe out and dry ourselves off a bit. Once inside I saw it a long rectangular room which looked a bit like a library as there were bookshelves on the walls. A teacher gave me a pamphlet thingy and then I found a seat next to some people from my media class. The librarian at the school started giving a speech, casually insulting some of the students, and then the dux was being announced. There was a twist however. There wasn't one dux, or two, but six! The names listed off were.. me (lol), Luke, Emily, David and Reza (only 5 I know but I'm sure these were the only names. All in all it was quite strange, particularly how my brother didn't get anything, probably representing my subconscious yearnings haha.
Some pretty interesting dreams, shame I've forgotten a little bit. 9/12/15 1: I was staying at a small shack on a windswept, dark and stormy coast, working on a special book, either as a present to someone or for myself. The book was a large, think volume bound in black leather with thick pages. What I was doing was scratching into each page special lines that would reflect the light when it was held at certain angles. I'm not sure if the book as meant to be magic or what, but it was pretty cool. I had been ignoring/procrastinating the book for some time, however, and eventually the due date came around and I was sure I had failed, only starting to do the lines on 2 pages as it was such an arduous task. I disappointedly flipped through the book showing it to someone when the light on the pages caught my eye. On those two pages I had actually succeeded! This gave me a rush of confidence and I resolved to finish the book, not for whatever original reason but for myself, as a piece of art and craftsmanship. 2: I can't remember the start of the dream or what prompted my escape, but I was originally in some part of Africa I believe and I had to escape back to America. I had to travel to Canada instead because of support I had showed for Russia during my escapades. I remember touching down in Canada and being met by protestors and government officials, allowing me to give a speech on my political views. 3: I was at Disneyland with my family. We were at a food bar, ordering all sort of different things, however all of the foo was made out of jelly-like lollies. My brother and I were meant to be ding some sor of undercover mission I think, but I'm not quite sure.
7/12/15 1: I was at a large building, sort of like a cross between a hotel and a town hall. I went up a flight of stairs and opened a door on my right. Inside the room was 3 girls and a guy. To of the girls and the guy were busy, so other said "I guess it is my turn with you", pulled me aside and we got it on. - A fragment about me and my mum standing outside a tent in the countryside. - A fragment about talking about soccer with some people at school. 2: A dream about me playing some weird cross between basketball and snakes and ladders at school. We were split up into two teams, where we competed both in snakes and ladders and basketball, however the basketball itself was just like a scrunched up bit of paper. The game was very close for the majority of the time, however I shot a surprise 3 pointer to win the game. Everyone was cheering, and afterwoods at home I made my own snakes and ladders board so I could practice more.
6/12/15 Dream 1: I was trapped in a giant office building with a girl, being held captive by the leader. I am pretty sure we were both trying to fight against the tyrannical ruling class, so they had captures us to try and brainwash and reprogram us. After a session of this and a chat with the leader where we refused to back down, we were returned to separate rooms. We somehow orchestrated an escape, perhaps they facilitated it as a means of entertainment, who knows. Anyway, we both burst out of our rooms and starting running for the stairs. We went down a few flights of stairs, crossing a few hallways in an effort to evade our pursuers; we knew we where being watched and our attempt was likely futile. We stumbled across a large meeting/office room filled with what appeared to be game developers and such. While scanning the room I saw an elevator on the other side, our ticked outside! We dashed across and tried to use the elevator but it wasn't working, of course the leader would be controlling the elevators. In desperation though, we saw that there was a sort of master key for being able to use the elevator which involved playing Mario Kart and winning the race. We both jumped on a controller and started racing as fast as we could, knowing our pursuers were only moments behind us. Sure enough, halfway through the first lap men in dark suits started filtering through the doors on the other side of the room. They started dragging the girl away from her controller, silent and machine like, as I desperately tried to finish the race before I too was dragged away. Just as the guards were coming at me the dream ended.
Can't remember too much but here we go. I was at a shopping centre kind of place with a whole bunch of other people. We were all decreed by some ruling person to do certain jobs to help with the building, ie. helping with construction or playing music to entertain the others. I ended up being with outside near a tennis court, giving a harmonic overtone demonstration for some unknown reason. Some fragment about a really bad quality something.
Here is a quick jot down of my dreams from my 2 days away. 1/12/15: 1: Some sort of Ubuntu party in Sweden 2: Being in a record store, seeing some records from Bindrune 3: Catching a train with some mates. We end up going to a party house (like we actually did haha) along with some other people. 4: Playin an mmo, kinda like a more horror-y version of Skyrim. I kept getting advice on how to debunk myths people had about the game, eg. seeing a dead child at night, gotta squat over them for some reason or other. Kinda forgot the details here. 5: Two women on a quiz show, like the Chase. They got caught for cheating, using radio earpieces. 2/12/15: 1: A war with Turkey (The country lol) 2: Athletics at Pascoe Vale, barely a fragment 3: Watching a game of football with my dad, there were 4 teams playing the one game as a giant free for all. 4: Cheese and Spaghetti on a giant pizza (yum).
The first night back into trying to have LD's and I sorta succeeded, yay! My recall of this has slipped a little bit but here we go. 1: I was helping my mum do something about the American election on the computer, there was some really dodgy propaganda videos playing. 2: My class and I were in China, Shanghai I think, and we were all waiting outside a big, old, fancy building. A couple of policemen came out and asked some of us to go in, so we followed. Turns out they weren't really policemen, but employees inside what appeared to be a sleazy brothel sort of place. We stated chatting with some people as the rest of the class came in. Some fights broke out and somehow our teacher got co-opted into a fight to the death with their champion. We all sat down in stands and watched as their champion, wearing a metal gauntlet, stepped out. Our teacher came out and the two began to fight in a boxing ring. I'm not sure what happened with the fight then as the dream sort of dissolved. 3: I was on my computer, thinking this was waking life, when I decided to do a reality check because why not. Surprise surprise, I was in fact dreaming and my fingers slid through my palm. I sort of confirmed this was a dream by swapping in between feeling my dream body and real body and telling myself to remember that I was in bed, but I still had lowish level lucidity. Anyway I sort of reformed the previous dream and then took the place of my teach. This time however my opponent had full metal armour, a shield and a mace, whereas I just had fists. I danced around for a while, avoiding his swings, until I had a plan. As he swung the mace I blocked on the inside and slapped it out his hand. This meant he was free with his other hand to punch me, so I dragged that hand in so the gauntlet was digging into me, but I held it in their as I flipped the visor of his helmet and proceeded to pummel his face. After a dozen punches or so he fell over,but the cost was great as I had a great big gash across my stomach where the spiked knuckles of his had dug in. After this lucidity wobbled for a bit and the scene changed, but I regained it and shot a fireball off at my brother (lol). The scene changed again so I was outside my old house. I regained lucidity and then started flying, the first time I've managed it in a dream!!! It felt fantastic as I soared a couple of hundred metres above the ground, but I don't remember much after I landed as the dream and lucidity dissolved. 4: Just a fragment about being in a park and helping two women with a baby. It was almost infused with Skyrim so I used a weapon to try and kill an animal to loot it but was having difficulty.
1: I was going around the suburb where my school is checking out real estate (fragment). 2: I was playing hearthstone and instead of picking your class for arena I could pick different heroes who had already had certain number of wins. The first time I did it I picked one which would get 25-75 wins, so I ended up with 53 or so and Gold ridiculous amount of gold. I showed this to my friend at school and he couldn't believe it, as he kept on only getting ones with 2-3 wins. This was a rather odd dream, particularly as when I was actually playing the game I got transported to a New York style city. 3: I remember fragments about someone vomiting and a few people being in an all terrain vehicle. I'm sure I remembered more but I have forgotten a decent chunk, lazy wakings hehe.
1: I was on a beach paradise in Mexico with my family. My dad, brother and I were gathered around a fire at twilight, sitting back in hammock like chairs. The talk turned to football, and apparently my team (the Western Bulldogs) had lost to Collingwood, kicking us out of the finals. We were all a bit distraught and tensions flared a bit. 2: I was playing a sort of MMO, where it combined mini games based on all sorts of different other games, except i was inside the world of the game. I created my account and then got cracking. The map showed a large, somewhat circular central island with a smaller island on the top left. The middle band of the central island seemed to be greyed out, perhaps needing an update, so I started off in the lower portion. I played some sort of minigame where I jumped around the city, grabbing bundles of cash that were stuck on the walls and posts etc. After that I decided to go to the top right corner of the main island, which dream deja vu told me was a theme park which I had been to long ago. The place seemed mostly deserted as I went on the rollercoaster and some of the other rides, it was a bit sad really. I went back to the middle top section of the island, called the maintenance section or something, where I was in a storeroom full with cleaning and building supplies. I was running around a bit trying to fix things and generally making a mess of myself. The dream cut a bit where I was with a friend at school and asking him how many steam points did they have. 3: I was one of three dwarves from the lord of the rings/hobbit. I was one of the three last living dwarves that were part of the group which travelled with Bilbo, and there was a feud growing amongst us. I was determined to be the last of them to die, yet the woman who was there was angry at me. The other male dwarf there, Kuro, was being exposed as a fraud, I was tugging his big grey beard and it was coming off slightly, it was a very weird experience. At the end I abandoned the two of them and went off into the woods on my own, vowing that I would be the last to die...
I was at some tall and loose looking building that seemed to really only be held together by metal walkways. Maybe a radio tower of some kind? There didn't seem to be any real parts that were solid and that had rooms, it just seemed to be all open. I was there with a friend, and it was his house, although his identity changed multiple times throughout the dream. His father and a friend his father had went up to the walkway where we were, which was about 30 feet off the ground. There was a door that led to nothing and his father went through it and fell all the way down, but he was fine. He apparently needed to do it in order to put the staircase in place. There was now a metal staircase outside the doorway he just jumped out of, which made it easier to get up to where we were. I don't remember what happened after this, but the next thing I know is that we're in an actual room now, even though his house seemed to have none. I was at the top of some staircase inside with my friend, and we were looking out the window and we saw my mom coming up to the house. She used the staircase that was put in place outside and came inside. Somehow, she was at the bottom of the staircase we were at the top of, and she was telling me how if I went back to school, I would need to "buckle down" and get better grades. This was pointless. We had an argument, and I reminded her about how I'm not going back to school because I graduated. She persisted anyway, and I was constantly compared to my friend next to me who got all B's. When I apparently only got C's. None of that is even true actually. This dream happened after I tried to do a WILD. I failed of course, but I did get close to the transition, so I'll try WBTB tonight. Does anyone have any advice for someone trying to get back into WILD after like 2 years?
