ENTY 1

I was sitting in some cobblestone street village which was filled with metal fold out chairs. In the chairs where old men and women, talking on and on and on. I was watching from the side of the street when suddenly a tornado appears (i hate tornados). The tornado is huge, it looked like the one that hit Joplin, Missouri. Anyways, I scream "TORNADO" and begin to run with a bunch of other kids. The old men are behind us, slowly making there way out of their seats as if nothing is happening. I run into a house and I can distinctly remember running down 6 flights of metal stairs into the basement. A few kids and I stopped in the basement and took a breath. Strange enough, the basement had very big windows. I didn't notice the windows at the time as being a strange thing. But, in the dream, I recalled hearing that you must stay AWAY from windows during tornados, so I ran to the corner of the basement and curled into a ball. The kids were just strolling around and eating lollipops. Once they sit down and everyone is shaking with fear and anticipation, a shockwave sweeps over me. (I think the word to describe it is shockwave. It's like a wave of energy that made everything inside me shake and made me feel like I had been turned to jello.) After that, we heard the roar of the tornado, and it was amazingly loud.
That's when the dream ended.

Dream:

I was at my childhood friend Jenny's house. Suddenly I could see there was a tornado coming. It was a skinny twisting tornado, but it was headed right to this house. I saw my friend's little sister who was about 4 years old in this dream I grabbed her and got under a table and lay across her. The torado ripped off the roof of the house, but left us unharmed.

I was walking somewhere with T and realized there was a tornado just maybe 20 feet or so away. I remember the light dirty brown color and it swirling, and I saw a twister coming out from the side and breaking off, but it was a darker smoky color. I told T we needed to get out of there, but he said we'd be okay. Then it hovered closer and passed. I saw two more in the distance and thought how amazing it was to be that close to a tornado and not get hurt.

Dream - Lucid

I was outside at night, looking for my coworker, Nate. I was on some sort of drug. I found him sitting on a park bench. I sat down next to him and talked to him for awhile, talking about a dream I had that night.

Then, he asked me something about the drug I was on. I told him it was some kind of fake weed. Then, we started making out. It was really intense and really good. I remember him pulling away once, and me involuntarily gnashing and grinding my teeth. I smiled and we started making out again.

Then, I remember being in his room, and laying on his bed. He had taken all his clothes off except for his underwear. He looked nothing like he does in waking life. He was all muscular and tan and was wearing a blue thong. I instantly found him unattractive. He started talking to me about his figure or something.

I then was sitting on a bench outside talking to some girl who was supposedly his sister. Her name was Emilee. She was very blonde. They had another sister as well, who was also blonde. Anyway, I was talking to her, and she started talking about sex. Then, her mom approached us. She sat on the bench and started asking why I was there and what we were doing since it was so late. Emilee started to make up some weird story about my boyfriend since high school breaking up with me, and something about elephants. Her mom thought it was bullshit and asked Emilee to leave. She left, and her mom started talking to me, asking me what really happened. I didn't think I could make up a believable story in that short amount of time, so I just winged it. I told her that Emilee was right, I had just broken up with my boyfriend since high school and I needed a friend. I also told her I had no idea what she was talking about with the elephants. Her mom seemed to believe me.

I was entering Disney World before they opened. The sun was just starting to come up. I walked by this roller coaster that they were testing out before they opened. It had weird cars, they were all bugs. I remember specifically some being smiling, yellow caterpillars. I remembered I had ridden that coaster before.

There was nowhere to walk by the roller coaster except for super close to and between the tracks. I'm not sure how I ended up there, but I tried to avoid the carts as they were run through the track over and over. The sun was up now as well. As the carts were continually run through, the coaster started falling apart. Pieces started to fly off. I had to dodge a few. I even saw a whole section of cart fly out into a field somewhere. I started to think that they should probably close that ride.

Then, I remembered I was meeting my family there. I saw a huge line by the entrance to the park closest to the messed up coaster. I don't remember where I met my family, but we found each other. My dad started talking about how we were under a tornado warning. I looked into the sunny sky, and in the distance, I saw a huge wall of dark clouds coming towards us.

We all went to look for shelter. We came across this tent that had lots of wicker furniture under it. My parents wanted to stay there, but I lifted a piece of it up, and it was super light. There was no way we could hang on to anything there. I told them we should go to the arcade instead. We left and entered an arcade. Perfect, we'd be safe here. My brother started to play ski ball while we were there. I decided to play as well. For some reason, I was having trouble throwing the ball up into the goals. The thing was built weird, to where I had to roll the ball on the edge of the machine for it to get it into any goals. After the ball getting rolled back to me a few times, I finally started to get the hang of it. I felt like I was doing pretty well. Our games ended, and the machines started to feed out our tickets. My brother had scored higher than me, and got a few more tickets. I remember my score being 21.6 or something like that. I took my tickets and started trying to fold them up, but was having problems. My dad asked me something about the tickets.

The next thing I knew, we were in the car, driving through Disney World. My dad was driving. He said
"Doesn't that look like a funnel cloud?"
I looked to the right. Sure enough, a huge, billowing funnel had formed out of the wall of clouds. What was eerie about it, was that everything else was light and sunny, save for that area. My brother said something, I don't remember what, but as we drove, the funnel started making its way towards us. It was a full-blown tornado now, and a huge one at that. My dad said, frantically,
"Why is it coming this way?!"
I told him to drive. It made its way behind us...right behind us. But it kept going to the left instead of following us. It was tearing the park apart. I could see a ride with people in it caught in the middle of the tornado. We were safe, though. We were out of its path.

Then, I remember being outside under some structure. We were all sitting down on the ground. We were talking. I asked my mom where my phone was. She said she didn't know. I started thinking about where I had been, and figured out I may have left it at Nate's (going back to my previous dream). I got super pissed at my mom about it though, blaming her and asking her why she didn't pick it up or remember it. My brother pulled a bulky phone out of my mom's pocket, and said something about how she had taken that instead. I was yelling and screaming at her about it, saying I hated her and such. I had a glass in my hand, and I threw it to the ground. It just bounced. Fuck that. I picked it back up and threw it to the ground again. It smashed everywhere. My mom started yelling at me.

Then, I figured out where we were. We were by that crazy messed up roller coaster. They were running it again, testing it out. We were alright where we were; we wouldn't get hit by the carts in the area we were in, but we were still very close to the tracks. They were randomly firing off the carts. I looked to my left, and my brother was standing on the track. He was going to try to jump out of the way right before the cart hit him.
"Move, B, move! Get off of there!", I said.
He stood there. I saw the chain start to move under the track.
"Move! Now! MOVE!", I yelled at him.
The cart started coming towards him. It was the smiling yellow caterpillar cart. He tried to jump, but he didn't move in time. The cart hit him and he was thrown off to the side. He looked up at his legs. As he did so, I did the same. They were bloody and gored. I ran to him, screaming
"Hospital. Now. Call the hospital! Now!"
He started to cry. I knelt down beside him and held him, crying, telling him it would be ok. He hugged me as I tried to comfort him.

I woke up with a grimace on my face. I was still very sad. It took me awhile to fall asleep again.

I remember something about entering a Shoney's (ew), and seeing some really tall fat lady who was supposed to be their mascot. She approached me and handed me some fried thing. She was talking to me in character. I started to eat it. It wasn't too bad, a little chewy, but not awful. The end of it was sweet, almost like it was an M&M. I tried to ask the lady what it was, but she was talking to someone she worked with, she seemed upset about something.

~

I was with my friend Mike at a restaurant. We were drinking. I had an almost empty glass of wine and a full cup of beer. I sipped the beer. It was really good. Mike told me it was Sweetwater Blue. I loved it. I knew I needed to finish my wine. Mike suggested that I just down it.

Dream - Lucid

I was in my room. There were lots of people in there with me, mostly people around my age. I also remember my brother being there. It was nighttime outside. Looking out the window, the weather looked really tumultuous. I remember all the lights being off in my room.

I then remember something about a tornado, or maybe it was just a tornado drill that we were supposed to be doing. I remember a girl, who was "new" (new to what, I'm not sure). She suggested that we have a "cake party". The places she suggested that we have it were very strange, like at a Winn Dixie, and there was another place she mentioned, but I can't remember it right now. No one thought it was a good idea, and no one wanted to participate. I remember something at this point about being in my closet.

Then, my friend Tori came up to me and said that if one of us had presented the "cake party" idea, which was originally Tori's anyway, more people would have been in on it. It had something to do with the way the new girl had presented it.

I then remember seeing Ziggy, my old cat (we put him to sleep about 7 years ago in waking life). I remember seeing him in our kitchen. I pet him. He meowed. I thought to myself "He looks so young, healthy, and full of life!" (I think something along these lines every time I dream of him). He ran around, jumping off of walls and doors. He seemed so vibrant! I pet him some more and listened to his meow.

A backnote on Ziggy: Ziggy was my friend for years, until we put him down (he was very old and sick). He was my protector, in a sense. I felt like he was a guardian angel to me almost. I miss him dearly.

*Continued from Part 1*

I then heard music playing loudly. The singer was a male, though I don’t remember the words. I remember feeling someone else there with me. I thought to myself
“How can I sleep with the music so loud?”
Oh wait…I’m already asleep. Duh. The music then changed to a slower, lyricless song. It had a lot of sitar in it. I decided to enjoy and listen to the music. I felt myself falling, falling, falling, but not fast. It was a slow fall as I tumbled in space towards my dream.

The music ended as I landed in my dreamscape. I had entered the dream with some guy. We were in some office-type room, each of us behind a computer. The guy started to talk about the music that had been playing. I examined my hands. Too many fingers, and some looked like toes. I started walking around the room trying to figure out what to do. I floated around, looking for empty walls to draw portals on.

I then woke up again. I immediately DEILDed into another dream, feeling the same slow tumbling sensation as before.

I was in a room similar to the one I had been in before, but the guy was gone. I decided to try to see Hyu. I repeated my portal process of writing his name on the wall with my finger, drawing a circle around it, and saying where I wanted to go. It looked the same as before; similar to oil rainbows. I colored the portal in with my hand and entered it.

I then fell into darkness. I was in a pool of gooey stuff, it felt weird, but not gross. I then saw an opening into another room. I started going towards it. The room was colored dark blue with a poster of guitars on the wall above a desk. It was daytime outside, I could see it through the windows. At first, I wasn’t sure if I had ended up in the right place and hesitated, but changed my mind and went in.

I entered the room, and turned the corner into another room. Sitting in a chair to my left was Hyu. He looked older than what I remembered.
“Hyu!”, I said. He replied
“Hey Krista, haven’t seen you in awhile.”
I had this bizarre feeling that he was awake. It was like he was awake, but seeing me at the same time, even though I was asleep and dreaming. He then got up out of the chair. He had a backpack on his back. He was on his way to class. He started to go towards the front door.
“Can I come with you?”, I asked as I followed him. He told me no, I couldn’t. He had some report to do or something. He walked out the front door. I said something to him about wanting to see Japan, and if I should do that next. I can’t remember his response. He was a distance away from me at this point.

I then woke up again and DEILDed.

I was looking up at trees silhouetting the night sky. I tried to fly upwards, but woke up.

DEILDed again.

This time, I saw a town close to mine in waking life. In the dream, it had been devastated by a tornado (not so in waking life). I remember seeing an older couple in front of a destroyed building. The woman was bawling, saying that the town should be taken off the map. I was semi-lucid at this point.

I walked around in the rubble for a bit before I snapped into full lucidity. I phased through a wall to get outside. I then started to walk into a green field. For some reason, I threw my phone onto the ground. It shattered into many pieces. I decided to pick up one of the pieces, turn it into something yummy, and eat it. I picked a piece up. It felt like a light, powdery cake. I ate it. It tasted like powdered sugar.

I then decided to test my other senses. I looked all around me, taking everything in. I saw many green trees, and some horses fenced in a barbed wire pen in the distance. I tried to smell, but for some reason, I couldn’t smell anything.

I then decided I wanted to ride a horse, since it’s so hard for me to do so in waking life because I’m extremely allergic. I walked up to the pen. My friends Courtney and Caitlin were there. I decided that since I was dreaming, I could phase through or climb the barbed wire pen. I started trying to climb it, but it felt very uncomfortable. Well duh, it’s barbed wire…it’s not gonna feel good. As I tried to climb down, I noticed I was stuck. I looked down at my feet. There was a screw that had gone through the bottom of my pinky toe, rendering me stuck, though there was no blood. My first instinct was to panic; that stuff grosses me out to no end in waking life. I then decided I needed to calm down and figure out how to get unstuck. I made a comment about it to Courtney, saying I was stuck on a screw.

I then made the decision to yank the toe free. I had to face my fear. Without looking, I yanked my toe free of the screw. It hurt a little. I looked down at my foot. Still no blood, but I could see where the skin was broken and torn. I imagined a bandage on my toe. Courtney commented on how cute the bandage was, and that she never had cute bandaids. I looked down and there were Hello Kitty bandaids on my big and second toe, but not the pinky toe. I tried again, and a bandaid appeared on my pinky toe.

Then, I woke up again. I was going to DEILD again, but was afraid I’d never remember all this if I DEILDed too many times in a row. O_O

Dream - Lucid

I remember being outside with some group. It looked like it was around dusk. I looked up at the sky, and the dark clouds were making spirals. I knew that this was not a good sign. I then saw a tornado come out of the middle of one of the spirals. I then saw a flash of a television screen. The TV said that we were under a "Huebert Warning", meaning that the potential for bad weather was very high. It was called something else, too, something that started with a Y, but I can't remember what the name was.

I then remember seeing a man in camo, a soldier I believe, stuck inside of one of those shovel-scoop construction machines (the actual name of this machine evades me right now). The shovel kept closing in on him over and over; it was out of control. He looked like he was in a lot of pain. I then remember seeing many people trying to help him get out of there. They finally rescued him.

I then remember being at McDonald's with my mom. She was trying to order this chicken salad wrap, but without the wrap, because she can't eat gluten. The lady behind the counter seemed annoyed and just generally upset about being at work. She kept misunderstanding my mom, who kept trying to order. I remember seeing the chicken salad spread all over this chunk of wheat bread. The lady finally really understood what my mom was saying. Then, my mom tried to ask for celery and carrots, and the lady said that they didn't have them, or something. I butt in at this point, because I saw some sitting on the counter. I said
"She wants those, the celery and carrots."
My mom then ordered a fruit bowl instead.

I was at the coffee shop I work at, but it looked much different. Everything seemed spacier. We weren't getting a lot of business. I then remember hearing that there was a tornado warning, and people started to go to the back. I was directing them as they went. I then saw them pass the back room, and go outside, where it was nighttime and raining. Outside was the shore of a lake. Beside the lake was a tree shadowing some green grass. Everyone went to sit outside by the shore. I thought that was kind of silly, since, oh I don't know, THERE'S A TORNADO WARNING?

Then, I turned to go back to talk to my boss, who was in the office (which was MUCH bigger than in waking life). She was sitting at the computer. She saw me enter, and said something about how we weren't going to the back yet, because the radar wasn't showing anything bad yet. I told her
"I know, everyone went outside."
She then got up and hugged me, spinning me in circles. I closed my eyes, enjoying every second. I felt so loved at that moment, like she was a mother to me almost. She started to crouch down closer to the ground as she was spinning me, and I felt like I was 4 years old again, being held in the arms of my mother. It was such a warm, loving feeling.

Then, I remember some guy coming from behind me to ask about a sandwich. It sounded like Chris, my ex, so I kind of snapped at him. I turned around, and it wasn't Chris. It was some shorter bald dude. I quickly apologized for the misunderstanding. I told him I had thought he was someone else. I went behind the counter to find his sandwich, he had said something about a "Panera salad". Weird.

This must have triggered something in my brain, because at that moment, I did a reality check. I counted 6 or 7 fingers, with some being very short and stubby. It's a dream! I started trying to think of what I should do. I almost just took off to fly, but thought better of it, knowing that I had a goal preset before I went to bed, though I couldn't remember what it was. At first, I just started to explore, walking around a bit. Then, I remembered my goal: To resolve something with one of my exes.

I was still behind the counter, and I floated up to where a blank wall was. At that moment, inside the dream, I had an idea to improve the functionality of my portals. I started to write my ex's name on the wall with my finger. As I wrote it, it showed up in the oily rainbows that have occurred with some of my other portals. I then drew a circle around his name with my finger, and calmly said "I want to see A". I started to color the circle in with my hand, and then it was an oily rainbow circle. I jumped through into blackness. I was afraid I might wake up, but tried to shove that fear aside.

I was then standing in a room somewhere. My ex was right there in front of me, sitting at a computer desk, doing something on the computer. I got his attention by saying his name. He turned to look at me. I rubbed my hands together so I wouldn't lose the dream.

"Hey Krista," he said "what's up?"
I sat down in front of him and said
"A, I have to ask you something. Why didn't we work?"
He looked at me for a minute, then disappeared. I was then holding a phone, and he was on the other line. I tried to get him to reappear, but gave up and just talked to him on the phone as I got up and walked down a concrete path. He started telling me about how he had another girlfriend now. I then told him
"I'm just not affectionate, A. And you are."
He said
"What do you mean?"
I started to explain that I'm not a touchy-feely person, and then got no response.
"A? A??" I said into the phone. Nothing but silence followed.

I felt the dream ending. I woke up, and stayed completely still so I could DEILD.
*Continued in part 2*

Dream - Lucid

I woke up in my bed. I looked out the window, and it was very cloudy. I looked at the stereo clock across from me (don't have that anymore in waking life). It read 11:30. SHIT! How did I sleep so long? I was supposed to have a final at 10, and now I was an hour and a half late. I wondered why the hell my alarm didn't go off. I looked at my phone. The alarm was still set. I tried to do an RC on the clock to see if I was dreaming, but it passed. Well this sucks.

I got up and started trying to figure out what to do. Then, the phone rang. I answered it. Some lady was asking me why I wasn't taking my final. I apologized and said I had slept in too late because my alarm didn't go off. She told me to just go ahead and get over there as fast as I could. I threw some clothes on and left.

As I got to the parking lot outside of the auditorium, I noticed a tornado forming in the parking lot. It spun for a bit then disappeared (I actually saw something like this happen in waking life a couple of days ago O_O). It then happened again. The clouds looked super ominous.

I got into the room I was supposed to be in for my test, and saw a line of students with notebooks and neatly organized papers going up to my teacher. Shit, I thought, I was supposed to have my notebook together for her. I frantically started trying to get my worksheets and stuff together. I got up to the teacher, and she told me I should have done that before now. I told her I knew. I started tearing sheets out of my workbook (don't have a workbook for that class in waking life) to put in order for the notebook. When I finished putting everything together, I handed it to her to check. There were candy wrappers all over and between the pages. As she was looking at it, I was cleaning up the wrappers.

I then remember sitting down in a classroom that looked very similar to one of my elementary school classrooms.

~

I was with Ryan. We were at my parents' house. We were trying to play Cupid and set a couple of people up on a date. I remember the guy being obese, and I think the girl was too. I remember seeing the guy in my parents' house. Him and Ryan were talking about cars.

I then remember Ryan and I looking at these receipt paper printouts that looked into the future of these people, and some other people as well. I remember Ryan talking about them spending 60 days of the summer together, but I corrected him and said it was winter break, because they had gotten together during the fall semester. He agreed with me.

Then, I remember being in my car with the obese guy beside me in the passenger's seat, and Ryan in the back. I reached for my sunglasses in the cup holder. The obese guy had to move for me to get them. I started to back out of the garage. I noticed my mirror was about to hit the edge of the garage as I was about to pull out. I pulled back up, adjusted my wheel, and tried again. Only I had adjusted the wheel way too much. I said
"I don't know why I can't back out of here!" I thought that Ryan was getting frustrated with me, because he's so into cars and driving.
I finally made it out.

Then, I was standing in a room with everyone. The obese guy was holding a very fat cat. He put it down, and I picked up an ugly brown argyle sweater that was sitting on something behind me, and I threw it on the cat. The cat started walking around with it draped over him. Someone asked if the sweater would fit the cat. I said
"It's a size 24!" We all seemed to agree that it would fit the cat. We laughed.

I remember driving down the street, and seeing that the sky was very cloudy. I saw a piece of dark cloud stuck to some telephone wires. Then, as I drove a little further, I saw a few people standing on the side of the road. One had a little dog on a leash. A tornado formed above them. I thought they were screwed, but they just stood there as if nothing was happening. As the tornado disappeared, it got smaller and smaller. It was then very tiny, and stuck to one of the guys' shoe. He started trying to shake it off.

Dream - Lucid - AP

The first dream I had, I'm almost positive I was lucid, but all I remember about it is being in a forest. As soon as I woke up from it, the details were gone.

~

I was with Kacey. I remember being at work at first, and then we were at some marine biology school. That's where she was studying. I went to sit in on one of her classes. My data analysis teacher, Dr. D, was teaching. I thought that was cool that she taught biology and statistics.

I sat down at a desk, and pulled out a bowl of oatmeal. I was eating the oatmeal throughout the class. Dr. D taught and showed us some film clips of marine life. When she showed us the clips, she turned the lights off.

When the class was over, she turned the lights back on. I got up out of my desk, and looked in front of it. There was a huge pile of oatmeal spilled there. And I mean HUGE, there is no way anyone could eat that much oatmeal in one sitting. I commented on it to Kacey, saying that I guess I spilled some. She said
"Yeah, that's why someone asked what that sound was." Apparently, it made a weird noise when it spilled.
I cleaned up the oatmeal, scooping it into a plastic shopping bag. I put the bag in a suitcase, which was lined with plastic. I bundled up the plastic, and threw everything away. I looked back in my suitcase, and the oatmeal was still there. I threw it away.

Then, I remember some guy coming up to talk to me. He looked about 30-35 or so. He was blonde with a mustache, and had a high-pitched voice. He asked if I remembered him, and started talking to me about my dad, and how he had been one of his patients. He said his voice was so high because he had "X syndrome" (fragile X syndrome in waking life). He walked away. I could not for the life of me remember who he was.

I went outside, and the guy was out there smoking a cigarette. Kacey had said something to me about me needing to avoid him or something. He started talking in his high-pitched voice again.

~

I was with some friends, some people that I'm not close with in waking life. We were all apparently close friends though. It was a group of about 5 or 6 of us. We were at a restaurant, Cracker Barrel maybe.

Then, I remember starting to go back in time. I started to experience an alternate past. I was with the same group of friends, and we were at a gay club. It was an actual gay club we have close to town in waking life, but this one was in a different town. I thought about that for a second. It was dark in the room, definitely a club setting. We were all laughing and having a great time. The time setting was either right at the end of or the end of high school. We were sitting at a table with a bench waiting for the drag show to start. I remember a little bit of the drag show. It was kind of movie-esque. I remember thinking to myself at some point
"If I would have done this, I wouldn't be the same person I am now."

Then, I remember it being stormy. It wasn't nighttime anymore. We were in some other building now, and were being herded into a hallway with lots of windows because there was a tornado warning. My old 7th grade English teacher, Mrs. B, was directing us where to go. I remembered seeing other people go into these interior rooms with no windows. I was baffled: Why would my teacher bring us into this room? There were windows everywhere. You could see how dark the sky looked out the windows.

I decided to say something. I asked Mrs. B why we were out in this room when there were so many windows. She said we had to be there. I started to argue with her, yelling about how stupid and unsafe this was. She yelled back. I think there was some physical fighting involved. I knew I was getting in trouble, but I didn't care. I was pissed.

Then, I remember being in a bus, driving away from the area. The sky looked clear, but then I saw a tornado form. It was a smaller tornado, but I saw it pick up a barn. It wasn't too far behind us. I "remembered" when this had happened in my "real life".

~

I was in my room with Ryan. He had apparently moved into my family's house with me. I thought about how awkward that would be, with him staying in my room and my family being there. He came into the room wearing this dark blue button-up shirt with a light blue shirt underneath. His pants were blue plaid pajama pants. We were apparently going out to eat or something, and I didn't have the heart to tell him that his outfit looked bad. He said he really liked that shirt. I thought it looked like a girl's shirt.

I remember there being some big, black grill-type thing in the middle of the room. It was more like a box, that when you opened it, it started to get hot. You could see the hot, glowing metal. You closed it when you wanted it to shut off. I opened it, and there was some wolf in there, but it wasn't a real wolf. It bit my hand and I laughed, because it didn't bite it hard. Apparently the wolf-but-not-wolf was my friend.

I then remember something about my cat, Belle, being caught in there and needing to be let out. I remember seeing her running around my room.

Then, I saw that Ryan had cleavage. It wasn't weird until I woke up.

I dreamed I was at my friend Zaine's house. Oddly, the house was more like a wooden lodge. Interesting. Zaine and I were watching TV. The house was really dim-lighted. It was really uncomfortable. I would've prefered it to have been dark. The house was nice though. Amazing furniture, antiques, wooden base, white walls. Pretty funny, cause Zaine's actual house isn't close to this nice. By the looks of it, we were the only two there. As we were watching TV, a warning came up. O wonder what about. We see that it's a weather warning. But, not an ordinary warning. A tornado warning. Aw, shit! Zaine and I know what to do. We get up quickly and head to the obvious safest area. The basement. We head downstairs, and wow. It's just as nice as the upstairs! So, Zaine and I head to the center of the basement. I'm guessing the center's safest. Outside, we can now hear rumbling thunder and winds. That's bad. It means that the tornado is getting closer! Aw, shit! The ground starts shaking. I swear it felt like a fuckin' earthquake was going on! The winds have really picked up now. It's sounds as loud as a fuckin' jet engine! The house is shaking even more now. Suddenly, Zaine flies up toward the ceiling. What the fuck?! He says the tornado is pulling him up. He tells me to let go and join him. Because it's "fun." When the hell was I holding on to anything? At that time, I start to float up too! It feels so cool! Holy shit, that's fun! We remain in the air for a few minutes. Finally, the tornado is gone. Then, we fall down. Ouch! That was one hell of a storm! Shit, it felt like we were defying gravity! Now, we decide to go upstairs and see the damage. When we arrive upstairs, it's like were hypothetically shitting our pants. The entire neighborhood is fuckin' demolished! Holy shit on a stick! Zaine and I meet up with sone other guys and talk. Zaine and I are bragging because we got to fly around. At about that same time, I awake.

I remember being at some indoor pool.

Then, I was in line outside for some vote/debate about money. We were all heading into this small, garage-type building to pick up our money of choice, either paper and coined money or something else, I can't remember what though. The conservative people wanted paper and coined money. My friend Rachel was with the people on that side. The liberal people wanted something else, the type I can't remember. I was among the liberal people. The funny thing was, even though we were on opposite sides of the political spectrum and were about to debate something, we were all friendly with one another. There wasn't any tension.

I then remember us entering the little garage building and picking up our money choice, each type of money being on a separate table on opposite sides of the small room. Other things happened after this, but I can't remember what. I know we were all waiting for the debate though.

I was in class. The class was being taught by some guy who made pornos. He was in his 30's, and had dark hair and facial hair. We were supposed to calculate some statistic about porn. I was looking at a Facebook-type page that had to do with porn. The more I scrolled down, the more pictures there were, but the girl's crotch was always censored out, except for in some cartoon picture of two people smoking cigarettes after sex.

I started to calculate some statistic about me and how many times guys had asked me to do an act they'd seen in a porno, or something like that. I was then going backwards down a road on a hill, I guess that symbolized me thinking back or something. I'd stop when I thought of something, then I'd keep going. After that, the porn-making teacher stopped by my computer and told me I was doing a great job.

Then, I was with my family, the porn-making teacher, and his assistant. I was falling for the teacher. I sat on his lap, and we were very flirty with one another. I want to say he was eating dinner with my family, though we weren't at home, I have no idea where we were. After dinner, the assistant was trying to get the teacher to leave, but he kept stalling and I kept delaying him so he wouldn't leave.

Then, there was a tornado warning, and the skies got very dark. I told him now he couldn't leave, he had to get in the tornado shelter with my family and I. I think he did, but someone didn't, someone didn't enter the shelter and said they'd be fine and were going to drive home anyway, though I can't remember who it was. I want to say it was Ryan.

Dream - Lucid - AP

I know I had a dream before this one, but it has been forgotten. I do remember Ryan was in it though.

I was in my room, listening to some tape of me either speaking a short story or a song to some music in the background. I was listening to it on a cassette tape on an old tape player. I remember also looking at the words/lyrics on paper, and then seeing notes of other songs/stories I wanted to record, but hadn't finished.

Then, I was somewhere else. Many other people were around me. We were all outside. It was kind of video game-like. There was some evil "boss" in control of everyone there. He wasn't human, but I'm not sure what he was. He was very big; not quite a giant, but maybe 8 or 9 feet tall with big hands and other features. I kept thinking "Bowser" in my head, like from Super Mario, but he didn't look like Bowser. I remember my friend Tony being there. What was odd, was that Tony and everyone else around me was wearing makeup, mostly eye shadow and eye liner. I was the only one who wasn't (I also don't wear makeup in waking life). I asked Tony if I had to wear it, and he said yes.

Then, the boss came up and started saying things to me, threatening me to wear makeup. He also threatened Tony's life. He picked Tony up and crumbled him into a ball. There was also a huge crowd of people circled around us. I knew Tony would be ok though, so I wasn't too concerned. I somehow knew I could leave the place at will, and I kept trying to, but it was difficult. I was trying to will myself back to my room so I could get my eyeshadow. As I was about to disappear, I saw Tony sitting right in front of me. I mouthed "I love you" to him, and he mouthed back, "Krista, I love you", and then I was in my room again.

I grabbed 3 palettes of eye shadow. I had regretted tossing my good eye shadow, because all I had left was cheap stuff. I grabbed one palette of very bright-colored eye shadow, and started to put it on in the mirror. I put on a bright yellow right above my lid, and a bright, shimmering magenta on my lid. I kept going outside the lines and making it look messy, but I somehow managed to make it look decent. I smudged the point where the colors met to blend them with my finger, and just ended up wiping some off instead. I didn't bother fixing it.

Then, I was outside of a parking lot with tons of people. My family was with me, I mainly remember my mom and brother being there. The clouds looked dark above our heads, like it would storm. Then, a huge cloud-to-ground lightning strike came from the sky very close to us, and struck the ground continuously for a good 10 seconds without stopping. I knew that to be dangerous, and was concerned that a tornado was on its way. It looked like the sky was clearing, but I saw that as a bad sign. We all started to head down to an underground gym that we have in our town.

We went down the stairs into the gym, and opened the door. There was a HUGE line of people waiting to get under there. We waited for awhile. My mom commented on my eyeshadow, telling me how nice it looked. We somehow got to where we needed to be in the gym, and there were windows everywhere. I thought that was a terrible place to be during a tornado, so I left without saying anything and entered a room in a next door building that was windowless.

The threat of the weather then passed, and I met back up with my family. They wondered where I had been, so I told them I had left to go to a safer place. They asked why I didn't tell them, and I said something about them not understanding or them not wanting to go anyway. The sky was now clear, and I had found out that we were under two tornado warnings in the span of an hour.

I was in some sort of cabin, I remember the lighting being warm and dim. I thought I might be pregnant, but I wasn't sure. My cat was pregnant, and for some reason this correlated with me in some way. I looked at an ultrasound picture of my uterus, and saw a small flicker on it. Then, I knew I was pregnant. I knew I needed to quit smoking. I was kind of anxious about being pregnant.

I woke up from this dream, rolled over to go back to sleep, and had a brief, vivid hypnagogic hallucination that I was Ryan, and I was working in an auto factory. There were some older men around me. Then I really felt the need to pee, so I snapped out of the hallucination.

~

I was going on vacation with my old friend, Bret. We were going to fly to a different country. When we got there, we were trying to find a hotel. We found one, but it didn't have free Wi-fi, though that wasn't a huge deal. I also remember thinking about having sex with Bret, but the thought was brief, as I'm with Ryan, I'm not attracted to Bret that way, and he's gay.

Then, I remember waking up on a blow-up mattress on the floor of the hotel room. Bret had slept in one of the beds, which he told me was not a very comfortable bed. We went down to the beach. It was a beautiful, sunny day. The ocean was very calm, and the shore was covered in small seashells. I waded in the ocean. The water felt warm and comfortable.

I remember being on a mountain, and seeing two huge dragons. One was a male, and the other a female. They were friendly and meant no harm. The male accidentally exposed himself enough to where the town below could see him, and everyone started to panic.

Then, we were going to try to find another hotel. Bret ended up going back to the airport to go home kind of on a whim. Then, Jeff, a man I don't associate with anymore in waking life, was there instead. I was annoyed at this. Again, the thought of sex came up, but, again, I'm with Ryan, and Jeff is kind of a dick.

Jeff wanted to find a hotel with Wi-fi, so we drove around at night, looking for a hotel. We found one and stopped at it. They had free Wi-fi, but not a continental breakfast, which was a big deal, because I didn't have a lot of money, so I needed as much free food as I could get. I remember being in the hotel, in the lobby. The front desk has a display case of foods and stuff to buy. Jeff was chatting it up with the person tending the desk.

Then, we were back at my house. Jeff was still there. I remember talking to my mom about the trip briefly. I was then in my room, and Jeff had dissappeared, and I couldn't figure out where he went. I looked into my mom's office, and he was there, going through files on her computer. He was looking at patient files for my dad's patients (my dad's a psychiatrist in waking life). I said
"Jeff, get out of here. Get out. What you're doing is rude."
He got up and replied,
"This is my ex, I need to warn people about this.", or something like that. He was referring to the fact that she had been seeing a psychiatrist.
I told him to get out again. He finally left the room.

Then, I went back into my room, and looked out the window. Two tornadoes could be seen in the distance. I said "Oh shit...", and went downstairs, leaving all my stuff up there. I got everyone in the hall closet. Jeff was in the cubby under the stairs, and there was no room for anyone else in there because it was so cluttered. I briefly thought about going upstairs to get my purse and stuff, but quickly dismissed the thought.

After that, I left the closet, and looked outside. The tornadoes had cut a huge path through our back yard. There was a lot of water flowing through one of them, kind of like a creek. I went to get my mom to show her. She stared with wide eyes.

We then went outside to assess the damage. I told my mom I hoped that Mary Katherine's family was ok. We were looking to see if any homes were damaged, but none appeared to be. It was just the huge path that the tornado cut through the yard.

Then, by the ditch behind my house, I saw a tornado forming. I ran back inside, and we were all in the closet again. Jeff and my mom were in the cubby under the stairs this time.

After that, I left the closet again, and the windows of the porch had been blown out, and the porch had been ruined. I saw some sparks flying around part of the porch. I wondered if one of our cats who lives out on the porch was alright.

Then, I went upstairs to my room to get my iPod. I picked up an iPod that was sitting on my bed and scrolled through it. It went to Facebook, and some Facebook pages. It also had an attachment on it that would buckle it to your belt. I then knew it was Jeff's iPod and not mine. I brought it downstairs, but dropped it on the way down. I picked it up, and the screen was cracked. It was very broken. I approached Jeff and told him what had happened, and he looked irritated. I was going to tell him I'd replace it, but I decided not to. I figured that he had enough money to do it himself, since he's such a big business man.

I was playing something on the piano in my family's piano room. It was my wedding day, and I was wearing a strapless wedding gown. I was reading music, and two of the notes kept on clashing. I kept playing them, thinking something must be wrong. Then, my brother said "It's Bethel, just go with it." In the dream, Bethel was the composer of the music.

Then, we ran upstairs, and for some reason, my brother and I were fighting. I grabbed the back of his shirt (like I used to do when we were younger and we'd race to get to the computer), and he was thrown into the wall. I told him if he broke any of my bones before my wedding, I'd be really pissed off.

I was in some building at a computer. It looked like one of the computer labs at my college. I was checking my email and my school assignments. I realized that I had not done 2 assignments for my bosses at work. I figured I would be able to make it up and they wouldn't care that I was turning it in late.

Then, one of my bosses announced that all the people in the room needed to split into 2 groups, one who had completed the homework, and one that was behind. I joined the one that was behind. My boss was the leader of that group, and said that he would give us half credit for completing the assignments late. I figured half credit was better than no credit at all, so I decided to get going on the assignments.

I was then back at the computer, and one of the assignments was posted by my coworker, Jessi. She had written it all in lowercase letters, and wherever there was the letter 'i', she had typed two 'i's" ('ii'). Then, at some point I was talking to my other boss.

Then, I was in the shower, and Jessi was outside the shower, reading the assignment to me. My assignment was something creative I think, and I had to be in the shower to complete it. In front of me was a 11 or 12 year-old-girl. She was kind of big with medium-length brown hair. I only ever saw the back of her, but I was helping her shower or something. I was talking her through it. She got out of the shower, and I realized that I had been in the shower for a very long time, and I had barely showered myself. I think I had only cleaned the top half of my body. The water started to get cold, and I felt like I needed to get out even though I wasn't finished.

I stepped out of the shower, and there was a lot of excess water pooled in the bottom of the shower. I drained it. I was in front of a classroom. The kids in the classroom were talking about how long I had been in there, and it was about time I got out. In the front of the room, I spotted a guy, Steve, whom I was friends with in the 8th grade, and haven't seen since in waking life. He looked exactly how I remember him. We talked for a bit. Then, my friend Courtney came up, and Steve asked her to get coffee with him.

Then, I was at Steve's house for some reason, and he was laying on a couch. He said something about getting coffee, and I said "Oh with me?", but then, I remembered that he had asked Courtney and I said "Oh, you're getting coffee with Courtney. You guys will have fun!"

I was driving, looking at the stormy-looking clouds. I thought I saw a tornado forming. The clouds looked really cool.

Then, I was at a local restaurant where my coworker Jessi had apparently started to work (her boyfriend works there in waking life). She was training on the register with a manager, and I was talking to her about the new job while I ordered my food. Then, she said "Oh, are you a student?", or something like that. I said yes, and she handed me a cup. She said something about me getting another drink for being a student. She started to ask me another question (I realized she was going to do this 3 times total), and I realized that she had charged me $3.89 for the first drink. I thought that I was supposed to get it for free, so I told her I didn't need another drink, and I didn't know I was getting charged for it. She took it off my bill.

I was in what was supposed to be my friend Kacey's room, sitting on her bed. My butt was hurting (weird). Later, I took off my pants and there was a lot of blood in my underwear because I was bleeding out my butt (ahhh!!). I told Kacey and she said "Well that explains the stain on my bed." I was then told by someone that I needed to switch to softer toilet paper.

I also remember someone wanting to have sex with me, but that was not going to happen in my condition at the time.

I know there was more to this one, but that's all I can recall.

~

I was in my living room, watching my brother, who in this dream was much younger than in waking life, play with some toys. My friends Courtney and Caitlin wanted me to go to the mall with them. I had already been, so I didn't really want to go, but I went anyway. They went to Forever 21, and I went in there with them and browsed.

Then, we were in an indoor cemetery. We walked by many graves, and went through many different rooms. I think Caitlin was looking for a certain one. As we were walking, I saw cemetery workers taking these boxes out of the graves; boxes of the deceased people's internal organs, and they were cleaning them. It really grossed me out, so I turned around to leave.

~

I feel like this may be a continuation from the first dream.

I was at my boss's house, but it was much smaller than in waking life and kinda looked like Caitlin's house. Caitlin, Courtney, and my old friend Stephanie were there. My boss was standing in front of a glass sliding door. Outside the glass door was a huge field. It was dark and very cloudy outside. My boss was talking to us, when, in the distance, I spotted a tornado. I told my boss to turn around and look. She did so, and we all went outside to find the tornado shelter that was built into the ground. I herded everyone in there, but my boss didn't come in. I pointed out where the benches were. I remember I was sitting on a bench to the left, Caitlin was on the right bench, and Stephanie was on the back bench. I can't remember where Courtney was sitting.

We knew the tornado was coming closer, but my boss was still not in the shelter. Someone looked through a crack in the shelter door and said they saw her, and that she was alright. Then, the tornado picked up the shelter, and we were spinning around through the air. This lasted for a few minutes before the spinning stopped. I remember thinking to myself that it probably didn't last near as long as it felt like it did.

We exited the shelter, and it was sunny outside. We were in the middle of a field. I remember seeing a family in a garage holding a wedding ceremony. We were trying to find my boss's house again. I can't remember when or if we made it back, but I feel like we did.

~

Yet another continuation.

I was back in the house, but my friends were gone. The house was now my grandparents's old house, but it didn't look like it. My grandparents were there. I wanted to take a shower, but I knew I had to time it so as not to waste water (my grandparents used to make me time my showers with a kitchen timer when I was little in waking life).

I started the shower, and then I realized I had to eat dinner with my grandparents. I sat at the table with them. I don't remember eating, but we all talked, I think about the tornado. I know I was thinking about the tornado at any rate. I then went back to take my shower, but my grandpa had turned the water off. I was just about to turn it back on, when a very big, tall, older man entered the bathroom, and asked me if I was going to take a shower. I said yes, I was. I think he wanted to take a shower first. Then, he started asking me more and more questions.
