Lucid Task for the Year of 2009

[John11]

Yeah I got one! Now I'm on my way. I'm gonna do it this year. I had a failure on the 8th but I succeeded on the 11th. Normal dream parts are in green and lucid parts are in blue. FAILURE: Hotel Lucid: I was in some foreign country. I was at the entrance to some temple. Some people were walking in. I saw that I needed a ticket to get in so I went over to a counter I saw that was selling tickets. I asked them if they took American money and they said they did. The ticket was $1.53 and I gave them two dollars. The lady was trying to figure out how to give me change. She didn’t know how. Next thing I remember I’m in a hotel near the temple. I went to my room where I was staying. I was lying down, but I decided to get up. There was a guy in the hotel lobby taking photographs of people doing drugs. I asked him what he was doing and he wanted me to get out of the way. I proceeded to skip down the hallway and I noticed that my movements seemed like they were in slow motion. I thought it was pretty cool and that it seemed like something that would happen in a dream. Then I realized it could be a dream. I looked at my hand and it looked a little strange and I realized I was dreaming. I started flying down the hall back toward my room. I went in my room and the dream was fading. I tried touching things to stabilize it. The visuals faded and I just tried imagining touching the great pyramid for the task of the year. But whenever I tried touching something it just felt like the wallpaper in the hotel room. The hotel room visuals reformed a bit and I went out the window of my room. Outside there was some concrete and I was trying to touch that and imagine it was the great pyramid, but that didn’t work. I started feeling my real hand and I woke up. SUCCESS! The Great Pyramid: I had a series of quick false awakenings... I just assumed I was still dreaming this time. I didn’t open my eyes. I went into the bathroom. I decided I’d crawl though my mirror and try to get the Great Pyramid to appear. It felt like going through a pool of water. I couldn’t see anything yet, but I felt myself climbing up the Great Pyramid. As I was climbing, the visuals formed. I could now see the Great Pyramid and another large pyramid. However, both were inside a giant room that looked to be made out of sand. Also, they were colored red and blue and had rounded edges. I got to the top of the pyramid quickly. I then jumped down from the top. I wanted to go inside. I had to go around to the entrance. When I got around the corner, something came out of nowhere and tried to attack me. It was some sort of animal warrior that ran on all fours and had a spear. When it got to me, somehow I stole its spear and hit it with it. It was knocked out. I thought it was cool that I won the fight that easily. When I went inside, I wanted to go down, but it only went up. I started going up. It was a long way to the end of the corridor. I was looking around at the interior. I was also colored blue and red and tan. It was in a semi checkerboard style, but it was really fancy. It was all very brightly lit like there was a sky light at the top of the pyramid. Whenever I looked forward, the dream would start to fade. So, I tried walking forward while looking off to the side but the dream faded. I was going to start recording my dream, but there was someone in my bed. I didn’t think much of it and tried to record my dream. There were 3 mechanical doll people next to the bed too. They dropped off these spheres. The spheres were colorful and surrounded by a fancy wire design. These were the spheres of dreaming. One was science, one was religion. There were two other ones which I can’t recall now (humor maybe?). I asked one of the dolls to bring me the science sphere. When they dropped the spheres off, they would disintegrate, but one of them stayed intact. I saw that the room I was in looked just like the pyramid interior and I realized I was dreaming again. My mom was there now (the person in the bed from before?). I told her that I was dreaming and she said, “yeah.” Then I told one of the weird mechanical dolls that and it whipped out its arm at lightning speed and it hit me right in the chest. It was a strong pain and I woke myself up. I also visited the Colossus too. I'll post that when I get to typing up the recording.
