I was standing on a square, orange-yellow platform. The platform had no depth. It was about 8ft by 8ft. I was standing next to a girl. We were surrounded by dark, vast nothingness. I didn't say anything, but I thought to myself. "I am dreaming." Then I woke up because I got too excited.
I've forgotten completely how I became lucid, but I became lucid at one point and I only remember the following after that, so no point in color-coding. I'm in my house upstairs with my brother Zach. Once I go lucid, I attempt to recall any dream goal of mine, but struggle with it and eventually give up. Instead, not wanting to waste LD time, I turn to Z (who knows I'm dreaming) and say, "Show me something interesting." He cooperates and leads me outside. Like my house, the street looks much like it would in waking life, but the sunlight was extremely bright, the grass a vivid bright green, and there just seemed like there was an aura of happiness resting over the dreamworld. I smile, taking in this sight for a moment, and then Zach jumps and takes flight from the ground. I follow him up, and the moment I'm in the air, I notice the area past my street is much different than it should've been. He began flying away in a straight direction and I follow him, looking around at the massive town as I did so. It was completely and utterly random at this point--colorful structures and tall skyscrapers stuck up in every direction, with the woods bordering everything around. My interests are piqued as I wonder what Zach's going to show me. Eventually we float back down to the ground, in which he leads me into a small, square, basic dark building. Inside the ground is all carpet, the lights are dim, and people are chit-chatting in every direction. It was very dark, but the atmosphere was very welcoming, much like a bar or a small party. Zach leads me to the left and the right again into a large room where electronic music played in the background with a couple of bars and something interesting in the center--a small tennis court with maybe 3-4 people on each side. Most of the people looked like older teenagers, say around 15-19. They're playing...tennis, but with a few peculiarities. Firstly, they're playing with their hands (much like volleyball). The ball was mostly transparent, but the clear ball was surrounded with an intricate glowing orange design that left a motion blur behind it in the air and was quite easy to see. There seemed to be no way to take score--players just played until they got bored. The biggest difference to this kind of tennis and IWL tennis was the fact that the physics were very trippy. At the weirdest moments the ball would go in slow-motion, or shoot towards the ceiling, or fly past the players towards the wall. Zach explained to me, "This is dream tennis. Kind of an interesting sport, I think. Do you want to try it out?" I nod and grin and Zach and I join one of the teams together, and we play a few rounds. At first I mostly suck (no, really, I blatantly made the ball hit the 2-foot-tall net at one point), and I'm teased by my teammates about this, but I eventually (and proudly) get the hang of it. At one point in the middle of the game I question Zach as to why it's not called dream volleyball since you play with your hands. He only says, "I don't know, I didn't make the rules, I'm only a dream character!" All in all the game and the dream itself was rather strange yet fun, and I totally wouldn't mind playing dream tennis again in a later LD. Eventually I wake up after a few rounds and I DEILD back to sleep, though the contents of the dream that followed are a bit more... private. On a side-note, I remember a non-lucid dream fragment from earlier in the night where I was playing one of my favorite MMORPGs called Mabinogi, but that's all I can remember from that.

So I dreamt that I was in the downstairs bathroom shapeshifting myself into stuff. I thought it was real life, so I thought, "AWESOME SHAPESHIFTING CAN'T WAIT TO DO STUFF." Out of habit, I did a reality check. The check itself worked perfectly, but I didn't care because FREAKING SHAPESHIFTING POWERS. So, not conscious enough to prolong the dream, I woke up a few minutes later and was disappointed.

Fragment: I was in my back garden having a barbecue with my dad, just me and him for some reason. Suddenly, out of nowhere, my neighbour and his son broke down our fence and they challenged us to Tug Of War. I don't really remember much about their appearance, other than they were both male and had quite short hair. We accepted and the neighbor went to get a rope, and he marked in the ground a line in the space where the fence was broken down, so the neighbours were in their garden and we were in ours. We all began pulling, and then i sorta got a birds eye view of what we were doing, and I could clearly see that there were more people than just us and the neighbour. I woke up before the outcome. My Comments: After waking, i did notice that some things were a little off, for example in the dream, they broke down our fence, but there is no fence in our garden, we have hedges. Also, non of my neighbours have any kids my age. My dad and I usually wouldn't be barbecueing alone, we would always have friends or family around. Hopefully if i keep noticing these odd bits about my dreams i may be able to work out some pretty solid dream signs. Dream clarity left much to be desired, again 'poor' to 'average'. Also this dream i remembered was longer than the previous one i remembered, which hopefully is a sign that my recall is improving.
Yay first DJ entry. Alright, so, first, me and TF2 Scout and TF2 Engineer were all planning to go to a bookstore. Then suddenly Engie stopped existing for a while and Scout and I were right outside the door of this weird empty building. We went inside and found that it was a large warehouse type place that for some reason reminded me of a stereotypical grocery store. There was large pile of rubble right inside, on which the Demoman was standing. He was all like, "Meh." then floated up a few feet and disappeared. Nothing happened for a moment, then the lighting turned pinkish red and giant pairs of bikini-clad, disembodied, glowing, jiggling boobs appeared and Scout and I started spaz dancing. Soon, Engie started existing again when all three of us appeared in the bookstore. We browsed the aisles for a few minutes, then we were suddenly tiny and running across my bed with my sleeping self in the background. Scout and Engie faded away, leaving me to run on my own. Soon, I reached the edge of my bed. I stood on the edge and did a kamehameha and woke up.
Length: ~3 seconds Type: Lucid I was playing basketball. I spontaneously did a nose reality check, then I woke up.
No Method 1)- I am in my chemistry class with two adults who are talking to each other. There is no one else in the room.I get bored so I decide to do a reality check. I see my hands and I know that i am dreaming. out of disbelief, i keep looking at my hands then looking at the clock, then at my hands, at the clock, hands, clock, hands and clock. everything went black after that and I felt disappointed that I didn't remember to stabilize. Mild/Vild 2) As I went to bed, I visualized I was sitting in a whitewashed room. I was the only one in the room except for a friend of mine (the one that got me into LDing). My friend kept asking me if I was dreaming. Eventually, I was. I was so excited that i jumped out of the chair I was sitting in and POOF, I see nothing but darkness. No chance to stabilize and no chance to check the dream out. WBTB/DILD 3) I am driving down the road and I no something isn't right. It was almost like I knew I was dreaming but I didn't fully understand what was happening. All of a sudden, I cant find my phone. I start to panic. The steering wheel started to vibrate and the panic grew. At this point, I know I am lucid. Unfortunately, I am genuinely scared and I close my eyes. Next thing I know, I am Gasping for air and I am in my bed.
I had a lucid dream last night, my 5th! This one was the first one vivid enough to actually write about. It was short, but sweet. And I think I've broken a long dry spell after attempting to get back into LDing! I was in one of my classrooms, at a desk. I looked around for a while, bored. I decided to idly nose RC. I do that often in real school. I found that I was breathing through my held nose. It felt like my nose was running, but I could still breathe. I looked down and tried to count my fingers, losing count multiple times. I got pretty excited. I looked around the room again. I have never had a dream this vivid. The entire thing felt completely real. It was so bright, too. I was surprised. All I can remember that was out of the ordinary was that my teacher was not the right teacher for the class I was in, and a thin, faded black border around the edge of my vision. I got out of my chair, thinking of what to do. I walked over to my teacher, holding my nose harder to confirm that it was a dream. I was going to slap him in the face just for fun, but wasn't confident enough. I turned around and walked to the classroom door, thinking of what to do. I told myself that my friend was just outside the door. When I opened the door, my friend wasn't there, and some visual distortions and purplish-blue spots faded in and out of my vision-something that happens when my dreams collapse. I stopped thinking and they slowly stopped. I walked down the hall, finally remembering I should stabilize the LD. I was pretty excited at that point that i was able to stop the distortions. I walked to one side of the hall to rub my hand on the wall, hoping to stabilize the dream, but that is all I remember.
I woke up this morning very early accidentally and for no reason, I switched position to sleeping on the back and after a while, I tried to move and I was in sleep paralysis. I wasn't terrified by the idea of falling into a coma as usual but I heard my dad's voice calling me, and at first I ignored it but then I thought it might be something important, so I woke up from sleep paralysis intentionally, reality checked and realised that the voice I heard was a hallucination. So I fell back to sleep on my side. Sleep paralysis again after a while, so I sat there this time trying not to mess everything up and waited for a dream to form. Suddenly, a dream scene forms. It was a big meeting room with a large table, with students from my class sitting around. For no apparent reason, I was not that rational and awake in that dream, though I was completely lucid with no doubts. Anyway, due to my fuzzy brain at this moment, I started forcing blowjobs to some girls from there. I think some of them weren't in the mood but there were some which had no problem. I think though I didn't get a blowjob at the end but it was fun. As I didn't instantly write down this dream, I think maybe I got one but can't remember it that well. Anyway, then some moment, the dream faded at phases, Once it was all black and then a scene was there with people and things everywhere. This time I was thinking about what I was thinking when I was awake about doing in my dreams, like eating, flying and other, but due to the fuzzy dream, I couldn't. Sometime, I woke up, and that's all!
Today I had my revenge from my brain that is lately tricking me into illogical fears when in SP, and has led me to waste some good WILDs. So my brain tried to trick me again in an unconscious FA, but I turned the tables. So I'm having a false awakening, ultra realistic, thought I had woken up. I was laid in my bed thinking. I start hearing my parents' voices from other rooms, but I think "my parents are on a business trip, how the hell can I hear them?" I kept doubting for a little, then I reality checked, and I realised I was dreaming! I got up ran to the door and before opening it, I thought "how about a lightsaber?" so I reach my pocket and try to visualise it. Shit. Due to excitement of the moment, my dream starts to fade. So I lay on the floor with eyes closed trying to DEILD. I made it! And it wasn't a reset, I found my dream from where I had left it and kept on with it! I opened the door, walked through the corridor and jumped out of the window. I couldn't fly, I just fell down but wasn't hurt or anything. Suddenly the dream starts to fade, but weirdly! I am suddenly projected on a bike, now 3rd person and I control myself by thought, like a dream-video game! So I realised there was little to do about it and started driving on the streets. Suddenly, the dream collapses. This dream was really short because I was too excited and had poor dream control. But I fooled my brain back for being a dickhead, so I'm happy!
So this dream came after I woke up in the morning, about 9:30 am and it was over at 9:38! I was totally awake on my bed checking around, listening to my parents in the other room and I suddenly lost consciousness and fall asleep in a REM state. I am in a taxi with a friend who goes to a totally different destination usually every morning, but dreams have no logic anyway. Inside the taxi there are girls, unknown DCs but fit the style of stupid teenage girls anyway, so they were realistic. The taxi driver plays an active role aswell. So we start talking about things like where are we going, I'm at the same time looking through the window plaecs I know, and we are on the move. Sometime in the dream the taxi driver asks "are you good students?" meaning of course if our grades are high. And my friend said something like "yes we are good students, in fact we're great students! Our greatness is measured in piles of shit!" Then I laughed like crazy. Immediately, a dizzy feel got my head like I was on LSD or something and I got terryfied because I thought it was reality. I thought "wait a sec what is this? I didn't eat anything weird in the morning, why am I high? Is this a stroke?" And after that I woke up with a rap song in my ears. Really terrifying and exciting aswell because it was an immediate REM induction like I fell unconscious or something and woke up 15 minutes later or so! Cool experience!
These are parts of a non lcid dream of mine which occured before my successful WILD attempt I'll write about later. My recall has been so poor lately after I stopped keeping a DJ, but I'll try to fix that from now on. Anyway, I was sometime in my dream arguing with my mother about something really loud and I can't remember what it was. Aaaand thats it, then there is a.... [Dream Skip] Then I find myself with a friend, could be a momentary DC, but it seemed like a friend in my dream. Watching videos in the net in front of my computer and we see look at some titles and he says "Look, there's a good one! This guy is trying to prank a woman nad he dies by accident!" and I was like, how could that happen? And then I said "cool, let's watch it". So there is a video where a man meets a woman he knows, not a random one, in a field of grass for no apparent in front of a big city, like New York, and says to her things like "Hey there, what's up? How are you lately?" and she regularly answers, until she pulls out a cigarrete to smoke and lights it up. Then it may be the part where the prank began and I was curious to see how he died, so he pulls the cigarette from her mouth and then my WBTB alarm goes off, 4:00 am. Time to WILD. Believe me or not, this is how it happened, I was too curious to find out what the hell happened in the imaginary video, but my alarm screwed me up. Anyways, it had a purpose! brb with my WILD post
Last night's dream was short. I was at work, walking around doing my normal duties(Fun right? Haha). There was a new employee there that new one of the managers that wasn't in. "So do you guys know Miguel?" he asked. Nobody there did at the time so I said Yeah I know him. One of the people working there was one of the kids I used to go to church with in real life when I was younger. I said "What's up Will, long time no see." not thinking much of it. We talked for a moment and then I started making Pizza. That was the end of the dream.
I was in my home sitting in front the TV my dad was suddenly appeared on the screen and i was wondering "what my dad is doing in the screen" bam! i'm lucid! in that min i stand up and walked toward the door, I realized that our door became white and i tought that it looks very cool, i tried to get relax and to boost lucidity because i felt like im loosing it, well.. it was useful for 10 sec until i stared to hear a car alarm and wake up with this annoying sound gooday every one
Two weird short dreams... Dream one, I appear in my kitchen. Go out to the garage, get my skateboard, open the garage door, skate down the street (I believe it was around 9am) and I see some of my friends skateboarding in circles for like 15 seconds straight each, so I start imitating them. Can't remember anything else. Dream two, I'm in bed, I get up. I also appear to go to the kitchen, talk to my parents for a while, they tell me that they made , Kurabiedes a Greek Christmas sweet, and I find them in the freezer, covered in frosting (which I have never seen before)
