non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

(...) I live in a poor neighbourhood. My family sells clothes in a small shop in a shady corner. Some bullies come to collect money from us, but they get more interested in myself and I have to run through back alleys to escape them. At some point I enter a back door of a building and find myself at some kind of posh shopping center. I continue running, but I have time for some observations. I see, for instance, a lady trying on some jewelry the shop keeper put over the counter and as they turn around for a second, I manage to grab a beautiful necklace, but I throw it away before exiting with it. It would be so helpful to sell it and make some money for my family, but I can't. It's not so much that I find it absolutely wrong, but I believe there's a good chance it has an alarm of some sort and I would be caught and it really wasn't worthwile. So I drop it and keep running. I exit through another door and I find myself crossing an oriental-style spa. It's so soothing, but if they see me there, I'll be caught and jailed, so I keep running. I finally exit the building and get to a non-urbanized area, by a riverbed. The sun is setting and I duck under some bushes. I stay there until it's dark and I sense that there's no one looking for me. I then walk through a dirt road and I find a well. I look at it and see the moon reflected on the water and I feel an absolute sense of peace and detachment. I touch the rough stones of the well and have a strange feeling that they are moving. Scared, I fall on the ground and covered in mud, I see a dragon arising from the well, the stones becoming his scales. Is he going to hurt me? I feel that it's up to me. It all depends if I run from him or if I tame him. So, in a corageous decision, I grab some scales on his neck and I decide to ride it. He turns his head and looks menacing, but then he talks to me and he says something magic I can't pronounce even if I wanted. But I understand he is going to take me somewhere.
He drops me at some big palace like hotel or something. I wonder how I can go inside covered in mud, but then he merges with me and his scales transform into a beautiful golden scaled mermaid strapless dress and I look like a queen. The doors open for me and I'm inside. But I keep feeling a stranger and everytime I cross paths with someone on the lobby, at the hallways, I fear that they will see through me and notice that I don't belong. But they don't.
I see everyone heading to some kind of concert room and I follow them, trying to mingle. Some old rich couple starts talking to me, I have to lie about a few things, and I wonder if I'll be asked for a ticket a the door and look stupid for not having one. They do ask for ticket and I don't have, but the way I look, they don't even doubt I haven't paid for the show, they believe I just forgot and allow me in. I can't believe it is so simple. Some guy offers me a coat and then I see why. The doors open to an open air amphitheatre over a hill and it's a chilly night. We take our seats and we get a package. If we're on an even row we must open it to the right and if we're on an odd row we must open it to the left (or vice-versa). Inside are some kind of 3D goggles and other weird gadgets. I wonder what this show is about. Then I see some kind of gigantic molecular structures with lights floating above us and I'm said the show is about to start.

Rehearsing for a show (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was with a group of friends and we decided to do some sort of act for the public. We were doing some rehearsals and we found out that our act lasted about five minutes. It felt to be very short. It was a song, but our goal was to make it l went to one of my friend's home. It appears he was gay and very sophisticated. He had a huge 8,000 feet apartment and we were amazed with it.

He had a huge walking closet with a ton of trophies inside of it.

After a while, we went outside, we wanted to play tenis.

I had some weird stickers that also were a touchscreen and they would play our video, but without making any noise. We started to drive and I woke up.

My husband and I were house hunting, and there was this house which we according to the dream had seen before at a previous occasion. At first we could not see it because of a doctor's appointment of mine, but the next day we came, and there was another family there looking at the house and the hostess was the owner of the house and her family.

The house had a small bay in front of it, and in the middle of the bay was the Washington Monument sticking out of the water. There were stairs coming down into the bay. A group of dolphins performed a show for us in the bay. And there may also have been penguins or other performers.

My husband and I walked off after this show, without looking at the inside of this house. I was trying to tell my husband that for a house like this we should be willing to spend more than for our previous home, and I tried to put a dollar value on how much more in mortgage payments per month, but I could not figure it out. I also remember being worried that we had not completed a credit check yet, like before we bought our current home, but I thought that we had time after all because we could place the offer and could produce the credit check if the owner decided to sell to us.

We met the other family who had viewed the house, and they were not interested in it, and they assumed that we were not either since we had walked off without actually looking at the house.

So we walked back. We appologized to the owner for giving her mixed messages, and said we hoped it was not too late to look at the house now.

Dream 1(fragment):

There was some story, according to dream it was pokemon related(Though i can't recall any actual pokemon). There were two anime-looking characters, a boy and a girl, and they were on a show of some kind. There was slot machine that they had to use for something, there was some talk about two realities and their 'pokemon storage' is full since they have caught all of them. They activate the slot machine and after a while floor below the girl disappears and she falls into the... sky? She hits the invisible floor and dies.
Then there's some kind of transition going on between two realities and they start talking in the second reality, can't recall about what exactly. They start flying and then there's transition back to first reality and the girl revives and flies out of the hole, she says that she knows the truth now. They talk that they have advanced to the next tier or something and then some old people come. The boy and the girl shortly fly out of the building. The flight continued over some grassy plains with wooden buildings and some castles.

Dream 2:

I was in some city with family and we were visiting some shop, in the shop i started playing some video game on the PC(Not sure where and how i have found it), then after that i was talking to some people about breads or something, we bought some but half of them were just like cardboard with a picture of bread, i gave them to some random person and we went out of the shop.
Family went somewhere in one direction but i went somewhere else and was exploring, then suddenly bandits assaulted the place, i was trying to find some way out but one of them stunned me from the behind. I decided that i don't want to use this way and activated the quickload to load the last save then went the different way.

Dream 3:

I was in Far Cry editor, i was flying around and i got random piece of terrain copied from somewhere, looking like a bunch of mountains. I copypasted it like 5 times with different rotations, i noticed small cave at the top and decided to check it out. There were interesting terrain formations in form of huge pipes, i thought that there should be an actual pipe in the level that i copied it from. I loaded the other level and there was still nothing. I realized that entities were hidden so i unchecked that and there was indeed a huge pipe and also an entrance to some kind of complex. Also there were some triggers set up for an cutscene so i decided to check that. I went into game mode and triggered it, it was about some mutant attacking the player character and then player character going into the complex through the door nearby. That triggered the level change which was some lab with mutants and red lighting.

Dream recall from today's nap.

I was at home, i was discussing something with family and there were doors from my room, that apparently were leading into rooms inhabited by some bandits. I was opening doors and shooting bandits down using some gun, then was back to talking with family, and back to cleaning out another room. That repeated a few times.
I was tired and everyone had to sleep in same room, and there was random horse with us apparently, and it was distracting my sleep so i went to check out the other door. Bandits there were more aggressive and i got hit before i could shoot them all down. I take a look at what supposed to be wound, but there's metal, i realized that i was a cyborg of some kind. With that in mind i manage to move out three metallic claws out of my hand and i finish off the bandits. I spend some time playing around with the devices i got, moving them in and out of my hands. Not only i had claws in the right hand, but also there was blade in the left hand. I also managed to make my skin semi-transparent so i could see all sorts of electronics below it.
I decided to check another door and bandits became even more aggressive, one rushed me straight with a knife, hitting me alot and making me back out. Suddenly we were on an small wooden bridge, in the sky. I was annoyed and when bandit hit me again i grabbed him right by the knife, pulled him towards myself while moving out my blade and then started repeatedly hitting his neck with blade till he was fully decapitated. For whatever reason an working helicopter blade came out of the top of his head and it flied up into the sky( ). Shortly, another bandit attacked me from behind, but out of nowhere i got some kind of weird miniature gun in my right hand. As he got close i grabbed him and fired the weapon. In a split second, everything where i directed the gun was in holes, projectiles pierced everything, and that included my leg due to how i aimed it, didn't expected it to be that powerful, but i was obviously perfectly fine. Suddenly i remembered that this gun is that one gun that can pierce absolutely everything and that can tear whole dimension in half, and that it was a good thing that i have only pressed the trigger and didn't hold it...
I walked the skybridge and found a door, through it i was back at home, which now apparently was on tropical island. There was big party and after it i was trying to figure out more about stuff that i could do. Then suddenly some dude wants me to participate in some kind of 'cyborg show', i agree. But as we arrive in the room, i realize that it was not the kind of show i was thinking about, but before i can do anything he uses some makeup and makes me look like someone who only pretends to be a cyborg and who's really bad at this pretending, while saying that it'll make me look more intimidating ( ). I try to do something but i have trouble operating the weapons for some reason. In the reflection, i notice that i have two sets of metallic teeth. Then dream ends.

Total sleep time: 7hrs

Other info: My sleep schedule went overboard again. At least we have proven again that bad schedule results in more deep sleep, less dream recall and diminishing LD chances.

Dream recall method: None. I really felt like giving it all up and skipping the DJ today, but forced myself to write those fragments before they were gone.

Dream1: I am watching a show of some kind and am in the audience. Initially this thing was supposed to start late in the evening, but it got postponed so it began at 4.00 am. Towards the end of it, it is 11.00pm the same evening, and I find it a bit strange that it finished earlier than it began. There are a lot of parents with their small kids and they complain that it is getting really late and their kids need to be in bed. So the show is just about to finish. My mom is sitting next to me. Most of the audience at this point consists of black older women. There is a moderator kind of like Oprah. Music starts to play and everybody begins to clap hands church style. I am trying to move my body in the rhythm but something in me doesn’t wanna do it. I can’t do what they expect me to. Next thing, a song from the 60ies begins to play, a song which I knew in the dream very well. Once more, everybody including my mom knows the moves of this song. It is a strange sequence of finger moves around the head and on the face. My mom encourages me to participate, but again I just can’t do it because this time for real I have no idea what the moves are, so I feel a bit stupid.

Fragment2: I am going back in some place where I see an old friend of mine. It looks like he has made a huge mess, there is lots of water and dirt on the floor and he is trying to clean it with a mop. I wonder if I should do something about it but it looks like he is finishing up. I take some cauliflower from the floor and throw it in the trash. I go back to look for my friend, wondering whether I should tell him about LD and what he will think about it.

Fragment3: Another friend of mine. I was wondering if he is really back. Don’t remember much, but I perceived him very vividly, I guess because I couldn’t believe it was him.

Fragment4: I look around and notice that I am in some German looking city. I say to someone that this looks like the same city I went to a concert a while ago. [I had a very long and vivid dream where I went to a concert in a small German city a few months ago. That dream concert was really cool!]. Then I look around and see that perhaps it’s not the same city.

Fragment5: I was reading a post on DV.

Note to self: “I am going to bed on time tonight. I will notice every feeling I have when falling asleep”.

I am at home in my upstairs computer room and a web show pops up. It is a web show for the show Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends. I lean back in my computer chair and get comfortable. After they've all introduced themselves it turns into a Q and A segment. Bloo is questioning his creator and one of the questions was "Dreams or real life?" and the kid said real life, so he was thrown into a cave that appeared out of nowhere and a metallic dragon head closed him in.


Fragment
I am sick and my mom tells me that if I get anybody else sick that I would be grounded and sure enough the rest of the house becomes sick.

I'm watching a prank TV show called "Weird Neighbors". *The pranksters have set up a mudkip impression booth at the entrance to the local library, where they meet everyone who comes in with a horrible moaning noise right in their face, then try to charge them money for the impression. *The next prank is the finale of the show. *The squad stands at the side of a country back road, signaling for a ride from passing cars. *An old blue pickup truck with two old farmers riding pulls up. *The squad of pranksters thanks them and gets in. *It's not long before one of them acts very sick and exclaims he needs to take a dump. *Unfortunately they are in the middle of nowhere so the farmers stop and hand him an egg carton. *He walks away, acts like dumping in the carton, and then starts running back holding the carton limply and pinching his nose. *Right when he reaches the farmers he trips and they nearly have a heart attack. *Its the end of the show, I wake up.

I'm at a marching band competition and we are sitting in the bottom bleachers as our band instructor is talking to us. As he is talking I see my brother, in his old
Denbigh drum major uniform walk past. He looks at me, but he does not want to interrupt our instructor. After our instructor leaves my brother comes over smiling and says hi.
"Hi," I say as I stand up and hug him.(He's in Hawaii for college, so I only see him on holidays.) The dream scene then switches.
It is night still at the competition and I'm sitting at the top of the bleachers with the drum line, who are playing their drums softly. Then our band comes out onto the field.
They begin to play their song that is apparently played without the drum line. Once they are done, the drumlin stands up to go join them, but before they can, the band starts to play the main show.
"Hey! They forgot us!" yells someone on the line. The dream ends with us watching the rest of the show.

WILD,very long, LD vibrations hit me, and I get up, find myself in my house dreaming, Everything is dark and I start to freak out thinking the dream is gonna end, but I stabilize by touching things and looking around my house. I look for my air soft gun and its been changed in that it has a really long barrel, and it shoots out paintballs which I shoot at my window. I leave after walking around and checking some stuff out. Then I walk out and try to fly, I have struggled with free flight before, only being able to use the pull method, and it didn’t work any better this time etiher. I instead go look for my school, and on the way, I end up at some park which is supposedly behind the school, where one of my friends hangs out a lot. I see a whole bunch of people I know from my school here, yet its not really my school. Then I get angry that this is a lucid dream and I’m not doing anything exciting and still not able to to fly properly. I yell out, if this is a dream, I can fly if I want to, flight is possible!! And I jump to the air looking at something and it actually works and I go to the top of a building. The only problem is, I go way to high instead of flying forward (which is something I need to work on). to get to the top of the building, I had to literally fly so high that I was on the edge of the world, and I walked upside down over to the building and let myself fall onto it. I end up getting inside some guys truck and I lose a little bit of lucidity but not completely. He brings me into some kind of game show on the truck but the truck has 3-4 floors on it and I have to fight him on the first floor, which I do and easily beat him but on the second floor I have to beat his two sons, but they are already dead. On the last floor is his tied up wife, I free her but she starts yelling at me or something, at this point I realize im wasting time so I get up and leave. Now im in a mall/store area, looks kind of like some part of future shop and I quickly regain lucidity. I try to do a kamehameha wave, and it actually works!!, I say the words, and see a blue wave of energy develop in my hands, and I blast it at 2 people who start tripping and smile and laugh, happy that I have learned this sacred technique. However, an asian man in his late 40’s with spiked hair was also there, and his kamehameha wave was much better than mine. He had the blue electricity coming out of his hands, and when he shot the blast out, it would actually be visible, whereas mine would be almost translucent and only a wave of clear blue energy. I leave the store and have a false awakening sort of deal inside a car with a man and a woman. I’m relaxed and calm, until one of the women says, “if this whole thing he experienced was a dream, that means this whole thing is still a dream!!” I RC excitedly, see that I can breathe through a pinched nose and I leave the car, start flying over neighbourhoods and looking at people. My flying is free, not a pull method like I had to use before (which I hated) however I go up way more than I go forward which needs to be fixed. I flew up to a window of a family that was watching tv, and I tapped on the glass to annoy them but they didn’t seem to interested in the fact that there was a guy flying behind their window 3 stories above the ground. I fell to the ground softly, it didn’t hurt at all, and then I took off into the neighbourhood once more, and woke up soon after.

This dream was like an episode of Regular Show.Something bad happened at the park. Me and Rigby went to the city to clear up what went wrong. I can't remember what happened but when we went to the city it looked like the building from the other dream.

This is the first time I've had dreams interlock after a day.

I was supposed to be part of a show on stage. I will be the last person to "talk," even though the show is something like dancing and singing and stuff, and I don't understand why I was just going to "talk" in the end. Perhaps I was assigned to give a closing remark, or something.

I was observing the whole show, organized by a Ms. Mon, and I said that I'll observe first before I give the closing remark. However, I left in the middle of the show, thinking that I seem to have no room in that kind of show. I told my agent/manager to tell Ms. Mon that I cancelled my speech as we went to our room in the hotel. He told me that we'll have to pay for our hotel and food if that's the case. I told him that's not a problem.

Then I went on an incoherent travel, in a school, with a lot of hiding from enemies in dark suits and stuff.

Dreamsigns:

chase

It started out that I went home to one of my classmates house to play videogames. He had a big house, with pillars in front of it and a big yard and a pool beside of the kitchen. Strange thing though is that they only had a kitchen and living room. I didn't see any doorways to other rooms. And the two rooms were completely open with windows instead of walls. I for some reason went to the kitchen and his parents were there looking at me. I ignored them, and looked at the pool outside.

Suddenly I was in the mountains with my father exploring a secret path to a secret cabin. strangely the cabin belonged to a celebrity. You had to jump over a big pile of snow to get there, somehow that was an obstacle. But I think it was a blizzard around the cabin. Later we were going to it with my sister. She doubted it and we said that it wasn't far from here. We stood in a cross between 4 roads. We were going left to the secret path, and there was a path right in front of us which went to the top of the mountain. And our cabin is at the top. much much bigger than in real life though. We came from the road behind us.

Next a dream begins with that a guy I know tells me he seen me in some kind of show, and suddenly I'm on that location where I had the show. I see myself in third person just as the show is over. The show is played out in a backstreet of some sort. when the show ends me and the other actors or dancers or whatever they were(which was girls I knew) they dissappear in an even smaller back alley. it glows a light on the wall, even though the walls are sky high with no windows. I see we are near a port because I see the ocean just a few meters from me. It's also night in the dream when this part of the dream occurs.

in 2-3 of my previous dreams there has been a girl which in some way protect me. She was not in this dream. She is a tall brunette with a brownish/beige coat. I have only seen her many times in my dreams.

I wrote this down on my ipod touch earlier then deleted it believing that I already posted so I'll give the short version since that's all I remember

Greek Myths

My mother was a teacher of Greek myth although in my dream, greek myths were actually the history. They became gods that we made statues of. I learned how to make a bust of one out of aluminum. I went into my mom's lecture class and showed her, interrupting the class. Every student left. I then remembered my improv team had a show. I forgot this stole a t-shirt and on the way to running to my car, ran into the rest of the team in the cafeteria. I ate some fries...

That was the speed version

So when I first remember starting in my dream I'm sitting with part of my family and a couple of my friends, only one of whom I can actually recognize. We're in what seems like a very large cafeteria area that is open to the sky above us. Suddenly, lots of food appears on the table in front of us, but I'm not sure what all of it is, but I eat nonetheless. While we eat, performers come and go to what seems like a stage at the front of the cafeteria-area. Depending on what they do, their props seem to magically appear onto the stage. I'm amazed by it all and laugh along with my friends about all the tricks we're getting to see.

Near the end of the show, the only one of my friends that I recognize decides she wants dessert. It's no big deal to me at first. I quickly become agitated as she begins randomly yelling out to waiters to bring her something. My frustration with my friend increases when she begins trying to claim other people's desserts because no one will bring her one. Angry at her behavior, I leave the table to go outside and wait for everyone else to finish. It doesn't seem to take them long before my friends come out first and begin walking in one direction, and then my family come out and walk in another. Not sure which to follow, I begin tagging along with my parents only to find out that wasn't the way we needed to go. They just wanted to go to the car first before we walked home. I feel like something is up at this point, because it itched at my mind to ask them, "Why don't we just drive the car home, then?" However, I don't ask the question, they get what they need, and we begin what my mom tells me is a 25 miles trek in one direction.

Suddenly my dream shifts to a completely different scene from the one we were previously at. This time I don't seem to be myself, but rather a sort of 3rd-person view over the situation. This guy seems to be a sort of victim and is being escorted to a seating area by two other men. The guy, who we'll call Victim, looks relatively all right other than it looking like he has a sort of broken nose. When Victim enters the clearing with the two men, a rather large woman is already sitting in a chair. Before Victim even has a chance to sit down, she gets up and apologizes constantly about having punched him in the face. She claims she got excited in the moment and meant nothing towards him. Before anything else can be said, I wake up from the sound of my alarm clock going off.
