DILD

Notes: I had a nightmare that I kept returning to every time I woke up. After repeatedly entering the dream, I started becoming semi lucid. This led to me becoming lucid many times afterwards, mostly being fragments with little control. Here are two of the fragments I remember most. This also marks my goal of 61 lucids this year (1 every 6 days).

I was outside behind my house with my brother. I was talking about my previous struggles with flying. Before, I was unable to even get up onto my roof. This time, I look up and super jump onto this wooden overhang thing. I tried to land on top of it, but I am hanging from it instead. I swing back and forth, trying to flip on top of it. When I get enough momentum I go for it. I don't think it turned out like I planned but I didn't fall to the ground.

While I am hanging up there I see that we get a new puppy. I jump down into this mud pile and start petting the dog. I see a computer with some dog pictures and I lose lucidity. I scroll through a powerpoint show with pictures of the new dog. One I remember clearly had 3 of the furriest dogs ever piled on top of each other.



I am formulating some plan with two other people. We are in a theater, and we all get into position. I am in the back, someone is towards the middle, and someone is up front. Vamsi shows up and asks what is going on. I try to talk to the other guys but accidentally give "the signal." We were supposed to get lucid and then start the plan. They are running around, so I guess we have to go for it. I'm lucid (that wasn't hard haha). I have to get them lucid though. The movie is playing in the theater. I yell, "listen to the music!" It turns out that the sound for the movie is coming from a completely different room. They are lucid now.

I follow the sound into this side room. There is some electrical equipment we have to destroy. I grab an open nalgene and dump water on it. Sparks fly. Someone who works there runs in and yells at me. I ignore him and see this large glowing disk. That looks important. I throw something at it and it breaks. Mission completed...I guess...whatever it was. I wake up soon after.

I am standing at the mall with Daniel and Michael. There is an Asian mime here. As some Asian people and families walk past, the mime does something funny. An Italian woman comes to me, accompanied by her husband. She asks me (in very poor English) where to find a bathroom. I speak to her in Italian to get her to follow me. So the Italian woman, Daniel, Michael and I, head off to the nearest toilets. As we are walking across a gravel court, Daniel criticises me about my past pronunciation of an Italian word in the plural. We arrive at my primary school's oval. At this point I begin to doubt we have gone in the right direction. We go forward despite of this. We jump the fence and cross a long, arid area, until we arrive in a small town. The men there wear nothing but shorts, and have tattoos. Everyone lives in caravans or tents. When we arrive the people are gathered around a camp-fire, smoking drugs, so I take a different direction. I see a toilet block, and point it out to the Italian woman, who walks off to go to it.
We are now in a different area, there is a gate, trees, gravel ground and a wooden rail that goes around the edge of a cliff with a nice view of a forest. I remember that we have been here before, and tell Daniel that he should be filming this place. Daniel says there is no reason to, because he remembers it all... in his dream. I calmly, and blindly accept that this is a dream. Then Daniel questions why I am not reality checking. I become lucid. Firstly I think of what I should do. Daniel is yelling at me to fly. I try to fly, but I end up jumping a few meters off the ground. I try to land on the wooden side rail, but I miss and land before it. I feel that I am going to wake up, so I rub my hands together to keep the dream stable. Both Daniel and Michael are nagging to me, asking what I am doing. I try to ignore them and keep rubbing my hands. I place my hands on the wooden handrail and concentrate of the texture of the wood. I go back to rubbing my hands. I tell Michael to stop talking, who is still screaming at me, to tell him what I am doing. I then apologize to him. I keep rubbing my hands, but the constant distraction of Daniel and Michael is too great.
