Valwen

1. I'm being chased throughout a city. I successfully escape the people who are chasing me.

2. I'm at the beach with some family and friends.
Later, a few friends and I are trying to trick Bo. We're playing a game in which he needs to travel through rooms on square tiles, and push certain buttons to continue. I'm told to hide by one of the people who came up with the whole idea and I make a feeble attempt to put my head down against the field. Bo sees me and looks very confused. He makes a few moves and I wake up.

In other news, I seem to have subconsciously turned off my alarm this morning, perhaps because I didn't want to be disturbed while I was sleeping. I woke up 45 minutes late, very confused.

Recall and morale continue to improve

1. I'm in Russia. I might be combining two separate dreams here. First I'm at bible study. It starts around 5pm and we're in an unfamiliar room with somewhat dim lighting. There's both guys and girls; the only person I remember seeing is Rachel. Afterward there is a party/gathering of some sort, so I stick around for that. When we leave it is 3am, and I am kinda upset, because I'd have to wake up at 7 for school (I'm taking Russian classes in Russia at the time). I roll up into the parking lot in my sentra, and park at the closest spot to the building. The lot is really slanted, and now it's 4am. I go inside. I told Rachel goodbye at some point before this, and explained that getting only three hours of sleep won't be so bad because I'll just sleep during class.

It's like Caleb's house, but it's the home of Valentina Alekseyevna. Her husband is there too, and she gets very angry at me for being home late. I feel upset that she's making such a big deal of it.

I remembered about 7 different dreams again last night, but have (willingly) forgotten all but one. Almost all the others were about starcraft 2. I need to stop playing that game. Dreams like that I have like no chance of going lucid. Or maybe I could use it to my advantage...? As I expected when I was falling asleep last night, every game I played has something that goes wrong that doesn't make sense. And I got really pissed a few times. I guess I could have figured it out.

I did on one occasion, after a dream faded, think maybe I had a FA and did a RC, but it was real life (I could hear the fan in my room). I shouldn't have expected it to fail, because I really didn't pay attention to whether I could breathe or not.

Most of the dreams had some sense of recognizing that this was all unreal, but I didn't become lucid.

I remember very strongly being mad at myself because "i got lucid so many times and just went around doing action-hero stuff, what a waste of lucid time" at some point during the night. Which is weird because I don't remember going lucid at all... I suppose I could use SC as a hardcore dream cue.

Throughout the night I woke up after every dream, and could remember about 1minute worth of material.
Unfortunately I didn't put enough effort into remembering it all, so I can only remember the very last one.

1. I'm playing starcraft 2. There's one other guy on my team, and it's about the end of the game; we're going around with our units killing every little base the enemy has. The last one is underneath flowing water, and I attack it from the back, coming around and then hitting it hard. I completely stop paying attention to the game and end up in a gigantic bathroom, with very ornate decorations and many baths. The one I'm resembles the area the base was built on, slanted and with flowing water that goes off an edge. I talk to one of my friends about the victory, and then see Twigg and ask him if he got my friend request. He explains that he hasn't had internet access since December. I realize that this is BS, because the game hasn't been around before July, and then become conscious, and wake up.

I slept on the floor last night, which probably helped me remember the times I woke up in the middle of the night. I also got an extra hour of sleep since it's a weekend, and that must have helped as well. My recall is getting better quickly, and I'm about to start adding hypnosis in there to really push it over the edge.

Today was a little better than yesterday.

1. I've received a message from Mr. Rogers, my old band director, in response to my (irl) request that he tell his students that my saxophone is for sale. He doesn't really answer the request at all, but just says something to the effect of "you need to come and visit more often."
I woke up and was thinking about selling the saxophone and for a second thought this had actually happened.

2. I've found one of my white pairs of shorts, somewhere around the house where it doesn't belong, and I wonder how it got here, and frustratedly take it.


That's all for today. Though I was lazy, and fell asleep about 3 times after my alarm went off and had various dreams which I've forgotten all about.

I'm coming back. It's time to build some dream recall.

My fragments for the night:


1. I'm in a competition of some sort, with a person about my age. They seem like a worthy opponent, and we're dashing around somewhere.

2. I'm playing starcraft 2.
