Wow, been a while since I've posted! Definitely still dreaming, even had a few lucid dreams. Just haven't posted here. :/ BUT my recall is improving wonderfully from where I've been working on it, so now that I'm having longer dreams I thought I'd post them here.

Also, something that's really been helping is the method of loci. I have over 80 things in my memory palace, including a few things for dreaming. I'm excited to try out some more dreaming ideas with it!

Also, I'm learning Esperanto, and the last dream I had involved it. XD I love languages in dreams.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

04.04.2011

Park Sale (Non-lucid)

A group of people and I are sitting inside somewhere listening to a woman being abused next door, and for some reason we're unable to try to do anything to stop it. We're trying to be quiet so they don't know we're there when my old school friend's little sister starts crying. I rush over to console her, but then suddenly I think I'm outside. Another girl is crying and I hurry to grab her.

Note: The abuse thing makes sense for some things in my RL.

I'm in a park and I clutch three dolls in my arms. I think that the smallest one is strangely silent, but then remember that she had some condition that made it so she didn't speak. There are people with their children on swings and such. There's a merry-go-round.

I think I jog at some point and make pregnancy breathing noises, and a woman hears and is amused. Next I'm in this area where people apparently normally read (it's one of those shelter places in parks that people can reserve), but now someone tells me they're setting up for some kind of sale (I forget what kind).

I think I fly before or after this point because I remember almost flying into a few things. A woman hands me a little box and tells me to make sure the time is set. I take the small (glass?) object out of a box and set it on the table. It says it's seven minutes until starting time.

- I say something about the girls and someone gives them a bit of a strange look. Holly (girl from old school)? I think she was the person on the other side of the table from me.

Caterpillar Parasite (Non-lucid)

I'm at a party or something. At the table beside mine is a glass jar of liquid (I think I briefly remember that it looks like my grandma's green bean jars) and it has stuff in it. I take it, open it and and am about to fish something out with a hooked utensil* when the girl who as sitting with the jar tells me not to put such a thing in there.

-* It feels like I did the same thing in the dream, but with a different object.

One thing leads to another and I end up throwing the liquid on her. Then apparently someone is sent to take care of the situation. I tell the girl at my table fake innocently that it was an accident. I think in my head what I'm going to say when the person gets here.

While waiting, I suddenly feel something on my back through my overalls (from RL that I'm wearing) bother me. I ask the girl to take a look.

...It's a caterpillar. The girls turns into a doctor women trying to get it out, but it slips back in. I can feel it moving around and shiver, grossed out.

- In a later scene, me and the girl I threw the liquid on(?) are walkng by the water, 'both' of us recovered and apparently had made up.

- In the end, there was a scene of a midget woman in her house, weak from some illness. A midget man comes to see her. She was sleeping on the couch. He helps her stand and walk.

Cocoa Song (Non-lucid)

I'm in the back of aunt 1's car and have really got to pee. A song is distantly playing and I only realize when I'm inside that it was my iPod. A boy is there and says that he likes it. I say it's _ by _ ('Cocoa' was one of the blanks, the other word was short).

I clean some sunglasses (one was my sister's?) and take them out to aunt 1.

- Was aunt 1's boyfriend in the car? I think my sister might have been in the dream somehow.

Note: The reason I had to pee so bad in this dream was because before this dream, I woke with a nosebleed. I went to the bathroom to get tissue and realized I had to go, but I was too tired to care and went back to sleep.


眉毛 (Non-lucid)

Skyward view of a 'map'. Flags are drawn on it (I think it reminds me of Hetalia). At one point I see eyebrows and think of England. Another time flags are along a coast, and one reminds me of England's flag- but I already saw the eyebrows so I think that these 'must just be states' (or other nations?).

- Scene of me spitting plain noodles into a white trash can, only to realize it has dad's stuff in it. I tell him (he's sitting nearby) and he's all, well, dad-like in his reaction. XD I think to myself that at least it was mostly on the one side, shouldn't be too hard to get it out.

Escape Underground (Non-lucid)

My sister says something about my sleeping habits.

- I think around this time, there's a view of my dark room.

Mad, I run away and into a dark underground place. I think mom yells after me, maybe I'm even chased after.

- Me and my sister find a store there. I see a baby shirt, one with a Dragon Ball Z design on it. I find a bigger one, though still a bit too small. Me and her find similar shirts (different colors) and we hold them side by side, but I don't think she would agree that they were the same.

- I've picked up this big glass design and am trying to align the bottom part with the stand it was on. I'm being careful, but I still end up dropping it. It's so fragile that it shatters. The person who was watching me heads towards me.

- I see a security guard by the door has been knocked out. He was trying to help me? He has glass on him, I notice as I head over and pick him up from under the arms to take with me. I enter a new underground place. It's dark, and I don't know my way, but then suddenly I do - a voice in my head? There's a way you can go around and miss anyone coming in. I circle around the people who are after me.

- Earlier: In the store, a boy was sitting at a table playing this game. As he played, he explained to me that you knock down mini trees using a stick(?) by finding their weak spots, which were brown patches. At first he didn't do very well, but got better as he went along. His dad, sitting across from him, nodded. The boy joked about something - his dad knocking big trees over with an axe or something.

- Earlier in store: I was worried about money - I only had a few dollars. I offered to get my sister's money when I got mine, but she refused. We weren't getting along in this dream.

- Jump: At this airport-like place I'm ready to get away, but I pass my sister who's coming up the stairs. She's wearing a purple shirt. I look away to the side as we pass. The scene repeats and we're both putting up our hair as we pass (me to try and change my looks; my hair was down and I was going to braid it).

She sees me, asks "Think you can get away?". I immediately leap into action by jumping off the platform onto the one below. About here is where I feel deja vu for this place (I think I know which dream it came from). I leap onto the next platform below. This scene reminds me of the scene on the Narada in Star Trek 2009 where Kirk jumps platforms; I did rewatch the movie that night. Also had a Star Trek dream before this one.

I'm worried about getting away, because now that she's seen me, she must have sent someone after me.

I don't know if it's me going to bed earlier or what, but my recall has been uber high. Still want to get it a little better - I don't want just long and many dreams, I want to remember more details.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Two Sides (Non-lucid)

Anime-style. There's a girl who has two sides. In teal-haired mode she can summon her minions. A boy (brown hair) is friends with the light pink-haired side of her.

The teal half wants the boy's soul or something and sends her minions after him. At one point he's hiding in a closet clutching the door shut as hard as possible.

- At one point he(?) is in a dark place like a chamber, blindly searching for pink girl. His hand touched a little lock on a grate on the floor.

Mmm, Donuts (Non-lucid)

I was in class. I stacked some books on my desk and put them under the chair. They were heavy and it hurt my hands, but I made sure not to show anything. An angel walked around the room and stopped at me. She came up close, clutched my fists in hers and said a special message to me - general uplifting things, and she healed my hands. It did seem to make the pain almost disappear.

Dad was at the front of the class ahead of me (I think I was on the second row to the right, three or four desks down). I believe some kids were talking about roleplaying games, and dad started talking about Nascar and the gestures to indicate driving. I followed him out of the room and glomped him. I told about him about the angel.

He ended up dragging me to the doctor's office in the school(?). We were sitting on a window-seat type area, me kind of hidden behind him. The doctor came in and dad made a joke about me, something about being dead that was supposed to mean that I was invisible. He asked if it was okay for me to be there. The doctor asked him to strip down, and he did, down to his gray boxers which he owns in real life.

Suddenly there's a kitchen area in front of us and people are making donuts in a big deep friar. She sees me eying them and gives me a tiny piece, saying that she 'can share her donuts'. As she gives me a bigger piece, dad leans over to the side and snags his own. The donuts are like glazed ones, but with chocolate on top.

- Jacob was sitting beside me in class.
- My hands began hurting again soon.
- When Dad was talking about Nascar, I turned to Jacob and said 'that's my dad', but he didn't seem impressed.

surprisingly funny and neat dreams for 6 hours of sleep. especially the guitar part

Guitar To Save My Life (vivid non-lucid)

I am driving down a snow covered road. I lose control and bail out. I sit and watch my car recklessly barrel down he street. I look behind me for a cop. None. Look ahead and one is parked on side of the road. His lights go on and he drives right up to me. "On your knees!" he yells with the gun pointed at me.

I am handcuffed. He walks me over to the outside area of a shabby apartment building and just walks away. I see a lot of gangsters walk out. "Criminal justice!" one says. I know they about to beat me to a pulp. I stand up, handcuffs are gone, and start playing a guitar that appeared out of nowhere. I can't play too well while awake but I was awesome. I sort of just moved my hands around parts of the neck that I know make the sounds I was looking for. I played a lot like Dimebag Darrell of Pantera. (Pantera - The Sleep)

Transition, I continued to my original destination, my friend J's house. I ran into a girl going to the same house. His house was similar to mine in the dream and he was in a room just like mine, sitting on the bed.

No Apology Necessary (non-lucid)

I was at work but we were playing Sorry (The Game of Sweet Revenge).



There was an argument about the rules and when the co-worker found out he was wrong, he went crazy. He started saying offensive words and threw the game across the room. Dude needs help. We've all got problems but damn.

A co-worker walked in, bruised, broken, and beaten. We had to help him walk but a phone rang and I got distracted. Relatives started pouring in through the door and were seated. It turned into an event, a wedding, funeral, or something like that. We obviously had a reason to see each other. I don't remember much else but seeing some younger children sitting on a big sofa.

Oh wait, the first dream influenced the second dream. J's dad was at work with us but he was being a a huge asshole. Or maybe that was another scene or fragment..

107: 6.1.10; 9:00AM Girl Scout Cookies, and Relatives. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed I was handing out invitations to Julia's birthday party - or at least, I tried to, but couldn't find the invitations. I looked in my bedroom and found a couple boxes of Girl Scout cookies. Even though they were already open and I suspected they'd been there a long while, I grabbed a couple and ate them. Then, a couple spiders made their appearance among the cookies. As you can imagine, I said, "Oh my God."

The dream transitioned and continued to be around my house, this time watching a bus roll up with a lot of relatives I didn't recognize inside.

Had a creepy dream that I was in a house in the middle of nowhere. It had belonged to long-dead relatives, one in particular a woman, who had left behind a quilt and some other odds and ends, but all were relics from the 1800s. In any case, the house had little ghost-children who wandered around outside and on the porch, even during daylight. They wanted me to come outside and play. I was understandably reluctant.

Then dreamed I was swinging, only I couldnt get the swing going, and when I did, I kept falling off.
