Wicked's Dream Journal

[Wicked]

Well, I've decided to try and keep a dream journal here from now on, starting with what I've dreamed today. It's morning right now as I type this, and I'll try to recollect today's fragmented dreams... The earlier dreams I mor or less remember involve a girl I never met, and other people. It was set in a city? like Venecia, ie with water running instead of streets... and it involved swimming... damn, its too fragmented to really remember. I think I was trying to hit on that girl somehow... on the other hand, maybe not. And there was some other guy, involved, whom she was intersted in. The above weirdness was connected to another weird dream. It was either happening before, after, or inbetween the former part... I don't remember. Basically I was playing a turn-based strategy game, which was a direct cross of Alpha Centauri and UFO: Enemy Unknown, complete with Land Rovers, Chryssalids etc. (those won't make sense to you if you didn't play the games I mentioned). And the game wasn't just a game, it was real, and I knew it. It's like I was some type of commander in this dream, who was entrusted to guard the world or something. I remember, in one exploration of a crashed UFO (part of the Enemy Unknown game), I. or, more correctly, the troops I controlled .had serious trouble fighting some aliens, but eventually they managed to exterminate them, but only because a huge group of them was already killed in the crash. During that same battle I also think my mother was standing over my shoulder and I was explaining her what is happening. In real life, btw, I didn't play either game for a long time (although both are among my very favorites). Next, the dream changes. I, my family, and I THINK members of a certain other forum I participate in (whom I obviously never REALLY met), where all moving into some kind of strange dormitories, like, on some sort of campus perhaps? Anyway, my grandma's bedroom was directly above mine, on the third or fourth floor of these dormitories. It also appears that most of them weren't even connected to each other, it was one building for a family, I think (maybe they weren't even dormitories). Anyway, there was a ghost in that dream. I remember that the ghost's existance was somehow my grandma's fault. I think that in my dream, she conjured this ghost while in her sleep or something like that. Anyway, I remember I did something which was supposed to rid me of this ghost. I don't remember what it was or how I done it - maybe the ghost no longer existed altogether, or maybe it was denyed access to my room... Anyway, the dream went on for awhile, until another ghost appeared. I remember thinking it was impossible, as I did "something" that should prevent grandma from causing this ghost to appear (she apparently done it unvoluntarily). I think I tried to find out the source of the ghost, but then the dream basically turned into a mild nightmare (a rare event - I usually don't have nightmares). The ghost, although it looked more like Casper than a real person (or more precisely, a transparent/white floating face that could become invisible at will), terrified me a bit. It started to possess certain people, I don't even remember whom. It forced a possessed character throw my cellphone (although it was of another model entirely in my dream) and other belongings from the window - including, I think, a baby. I remember the view from this window being exactly like it is from my home in real life though (heh, no "dormitories" here). At that point I remembered thinking along the lines of: "if only could someone outside give me some kind of equation to deal with that ghost..." somehow, I KNEW there was some specific mathematical equation that could block the ghost from ever appearing again. I also think my refference to "outside" was to outside the dream. Unfortunately, the thought was fleeting and I didn't become lucid. Eventually the ghost became invisible. My dog, which was in the dream, managed to sniff it out, but then it finally dissapeared completely. Upon that point I've experienced two false awakenings. The first time, I stood up with the intention of starting a dream journal here and writing this. While my computer loaded, I made quick writings on a paper so that I won't forget the dream. I then started to partially type it in, but I think that either the ghost returned, or, more likely, I had some "clue" to the ghost's imminent return, upon which point I woke up a second time. This time, although I STILL didn't figure that I'm still dreaming, it was short, involved no ghost, and no writing this journal. The third time I woke up I instantly recognized this time is the real one, and quickly turned on the computer to write this.

Today's dreams are nothing special. I actually remember 6 or more of them today, to one extent or another. That's because I woke up several times during the night (too bad I didn't bother taking notes ), each time annoyed at my dream's unwillingness to become lucid (I told myself that I'd become lucid several times before going to sleep, and practiced reality checks during the day). Anyway, it didn't work. Maybe I should wait for one of my regular pre-lucid dreams, and try to 'expand' the dream to fully lucid state from there... Anyway, I'm not sure if there's any point in actually describing them. One of these dreams dealt with service in the military. Another one had my father and some woman (his girlfriend?) in it. All the rest of my dreams today were dealing with school and/or friends from school. The only common streak with yeasterday's dream that I can think of, is that I've played a computer game in today's dream as well. This time it wasn't any game from real life, and I don't think it was 'real' for me in that dream. It was some kind of demo, and I played it with a good friend of mine (whom I've seen yesterday by the way). I don't exactly remember what was that game's goal, it had something to do with talking to a character deep inside a building or a castle. But on the way was that huge monster chasing the character, and we had no means of fighting it - we had to dodge and run from it, to reach that man inside. From what I remember, this monster was hunched, had long forearms, like an ape, had a medium-length, bright brown fur (it was quite untidy), and it was running on all fours. Some sort of yeti/gorilla hybrid. The demo of that game, by the way, was one of three demo's on the cd I and my friend tried out in that dream. The other 2 were utter shit, and I remember that both were not US produced (on of them in Sweden??). Oh, and I've actually experienced "changing text" in that dream. I think that dream had a rediculously complex way of saving games, and to save them, I had to read a lot... or something... no, it was not about saving, but never mind. Well, I'm not sure if I should bother discussing the other dreams. One, like I've said, was about military service (something I, being an Israeli citizen, would have to go through in serveral months from now). I think I was in command of a squad perhaps... anyway I remeber that people (my commanders?) were very unsatified with me, they were even outright raging. I suppose I didn't do my job properly. Anyway, all other dreams (except the one with my father) dealt with school or friends from school. In one, a friend bought me a Snickers snack. In another, I took a hotel room (or something) with some of my friends, and there was a party of all the school outside the building, and some people entered our room. Another one, I actually was (or maybe I was looking in 3rd preson at?) a female teacher, in some huge school that looked very expensive and elegant (much better than my real one). The teacher herself was quite hot, and was wearing a red dress, heels, and lots of make-up. At least I THINK so... I don't remember the details of my/her "adventures" in that school. That would be all. EDIT: Wait a minute! AHA!! In many of my dreams (including today's and yesterday's, and MANY earlier ones I can remember) I'm living or moving into a different apartment!! A reccuring theme, w00t! Maybe I can turn this into a dream sign...

[Wicked]

Well, I had around 3 dreams today, but unfortunately I remember only the latest one... although I also remembered the others when I woke up once during the night... Anyway, this dream had much to do with dreaming. I dreamt that me and many other people (friends, schoolmates, internet mates) could share our dreams. In those dreams, we played some kind of wargames with each other. I remember something about a Bolo (Bolo is a fictional humongous tank from a scifi book series), for example. I also remember that my friend deployed some kind of huge robot, but I somehow won that match by using some kind of device to create powerful wind that blowed it away... I even think that I thought about lucid dreaming during that dream... yet I didn't realize I'm currently dreaming. And later the dream somehow involved my mother. Apparently, she was learning how to wield lightsabers like i Star Wars or something messed up dreams...

I have a lot to cover this time. One of today's dreams, a former employee of mine suddenly contacted me (independently, IRL I worked together with my father, so he did all the talking with them), and offered me a job in another town. I took it, I think. I remember planning how I'm going to reach the relatively far place. I'll get to it by bus, and return by bicycle, because most of the way to the town was apparently uphill or something. I never thought to question how am I going to enter a bus with a bycicle, of course . In another dream, it was friday night and I was hanging out with some people (some of those are IRL not close enough to me to hang out with outside school, by the way). I remember being satisfied that I'm out on friday night. Probably because last friday I stayed home :-p (although a couple of friends came over and we had fun, but it ain't the same...) That night (in the dream) we met a shitload of people from school, and even teachers, strangely enough. Anyway, eventually for some reason each of us had his own helicopter (or maybe a light plane). I controlled it with a normal computer joystick, the same one I have IRL (it's a plain cheap 4-button joystick, nothing fancy). I probably dreamt about it because yesterday I demonstrated it to a certain friend for the first time. Anyway, I remember the configuration of at least two buttons - the left button was to fire the secondary weapons (a wing-mounted machine-gun), while the right button was to open communications with another guy who had such a plane/chopper (I'm not sure how many were there, I remember at least one other besides me). So I used it to talk a bit, but later for some reason I had a second wing mounted machinegun, so every time I tried to open communication, the right machinegun also fired. I guess the controls needed a bit configuration :-p. During those dreams I occasionally came back to my apartment and it was, again, nothing like my real one. This time it was huge, at least 10 rooms but probably more like 30. It must've spanned the entire floor of the building, because I'm quite sure it was an apartment and not a private house. Anyway, I woke up close to dawn, wrote down a couple of words (such as "job") to remember my dreams better later, and went back to bed. From this point and on, I constantly entered very short naps without realizing it, and woke up. In those naps I was still lying in my bed, trying to fall asleep, before something happened, after which I woke up, lied in bed for a bit, before falling into a nap again and repeating the cycle. This "something" was nothing unusual. One I remember, for example, is my grandmother or mother coming into the room . Anyway, during one of those naps, I dreamt that suddenly the cellphone and an electroic diary thing (which I had many years ago in reality, but eventually gave it to my mom. She still uses it to this day), which were lying close to my bed (the same place my cellphone lies in reality) start beeping for no reason. I take them and try to turn it off, but they behave strangely, and display mostly gibberish. Suddenly it strikes me - "Device Failure". What's the chance of two different devices having the same (very strange) malfunction at the same time? I think about it a bit, and come to the conclusion that I definetly must be dreaming - the surroundings are too hazy to be reality. I proceed to fly forward, lying in the same position as I was in bed, and through the wall, but wake up before I had a chance of coming out the other side (I would've ended up in the short corridor, if the apartment was the same as IRL this time). I wasn't surprised, as it was clearly not deep sleep, only a nap. Anyway, after having some more of these naps, I finally fall back into deep, normal sleep. It started, I THINK, from lying in my bed in the morning too, but eventually it came to today's evening. The apartment (or at least the part I could see through the door of my room) was normal this time. My mom, for some reason, was going to the birthday of a former neighbour of ours (who moved out years ago). I also remember that I was a bit sick in that dream, and had a light occasional cough. Anyway, I was remmembering the naps I had "this morning", and looked forward to sleeping again so I could try being lucid for a bit longer. ARGH, WHY DIDN'T I MAKE A REALITY CHECK???? Maybe I should practice it more when I'm awake...... Anyway, that's it. I think there was something about computer games again in my dreams today, at least I remember making a list of "mad scientists" in computer games, just because it was fun. Oh, and there was something about the movies, too. I think I went to watch a movie, or walked with someone who then went o watch a movie... OK, end.

Well, during the long time the board was offline, I had many dreams which I'm not going to detail. Suffice to say that I had 5 more lucid dreams besides the one in the previous post. 2 of them are insignificant just like the above, 2 are somewhat significant due to their unusual vividness (now I understand what people are talking about!!) although I had close to zero control in both, and 1 of them - the best of the bunch but still not phenomenal, I actually practiced flying using one of the methods reccomended by other users! (specifically the "choose a far away object and imagine yourself pulled to it" method). Worked great, although not exactly like I thought. Anyway, an important conclusion I came to is that the more vivid a dream is, the harder it is to control it. Additionally, vivid dreams are a lot harder to wake up from than hazy dreams (and that's a GOOD thing). I even done spinning in one of those dreams (one of the 2 categorized as insignificant) and it worked very well in stabilizing the dream, although like an idiot, I decided that because I didn't like the setting I should wake myself up and try controlling things the next time I have a lucid draem. So I did. Damn, I hate it when your logic fucks up in a dream EDIT: And about dreamsigns, I just can't find any. All those lucid dreams happened randomly and spontaneously.

[Wicked]

Nothing special to report. Had some friends and other people from school in my dreams today. Also weird stuff about a computer game about space fights (something like Freelancer), Steve Arkel from Family Matters , Spiderman (and a fake who pretended to be Spiderman), going to a completely new school where they make you steaks for breakfast , something about trying to go past a very angry and big dog on the way to school while using a pillow to fend off its attempts to bite me, and several other strange things that are too bizzare to really describe.

[Wicked]

Nothing unusual today. Had a dream that I'm married and have a daughter, and she wanted to do something dangerous (that shall remain private, sorry) and me and my wife tried to persuade her from doing this. Also, somewhere in that (or another) dream there was my deceased grandfather in it. I and my father were supposed to do some job or mission or something from a list on a paper, I don't exactly remember how my grandpa tied into all this, but he did. In another dream I and a couple of friends were doing some sort of survival game, in this huge building divided into different sections with weapons scattered about, and we had to move from section to section and avoid various traps, while using different tools to unlock doors and move on... something like that. It was only a game though, like an attraction in a park or something, but it was fairly long.

[Wicked]

Dreamt that I graduated from highschool, and I was very sad (it's going to happen soon enough in reality...) I also think I moved to some new place (although strangely enough, that "new" place appeared to be my current building...) I also remember vague stuff about having some high-tech equipment that could detect... something. Then I also remember some kind of game or some such, where I think I controled a nation? And one of my fighter-plane patrols got too far outside the borders or something... meh, too vague. Anyway, next thing, I was drafted into the military (also something that will happen in reality). There I think I learned how to fight aliens or something equally weird. I remember that a UFO tried to blast us from above but we survived... suddenly, it was all merely "practicing" with a friend in my house, and it was apparently my birthday and a bunch of people rang at the door. I thought they've come to my birthday, but aparently they were looking for my mother... Later the dream turned into yet another "game" thing, but this time I was in it. There were Orcs in it, but they would've attacked only if disturbed (they could occasionaly be seen guarding entrances to houses and such). There also was some kind of very greedy king? Who got a constant supply of coins, and I had to do some kind of mission to ensure he doesn't get the amount he wanted, all while pretending to be allied with him or something like that. I also remember being on TV for the children's channel , and some fat girl was interviewed but she couldn't read the lines they gave her properly, because they contained a great deal of spelling and grammar errors, so she complaine about it and started correcting it while they were airing. Weird...

I was a Super Sayia-jin, and I, along with other SSJ's, had to fight... the sun

Interesting dreams today. In one of them, some relative of mine was supposed to get married, and... it's hard to remember, but I think they changed the location several times or something, so we got new invitations... that particular dream ended when I wanted to take a piss, but the light in the toilet room didn't work (sounds familiar?). I tried the lights of the corridor and the adjacent bathroom, and only the bathroom one worked. I went in to take a piss in the toilet room, with the bathroom light close enough to somewhat light the room, but then it went out too. I exited the toilet room angry, and in the darkness I think I faced something scary that woke me up (yeah, darkness in my dreams is DEFINETLY not a good sign... when I was a kid I used to go into dark areas in my dreams (the stairs room being the first choise) if I wanted to wake myself up. Another dream... damn, this one is so vague in my memory, but I remember it was AWESOME. I think I had powers in that dream, and it's possible that I fought, or enforced the law or something. I remember some old man or something from that dream too. DAMN, too bad I can't remember. Something about x-ray vision perhaps? I was a robot? Argh! In another dream I had this large jeep I owned (in reality I don't have a driving license yet ), and I was in a friend's place (a real friend, an imaginary place somewhat different but resembling his real one) and forgot my jacket or sweater there. And it was raining. So I remember that I went up and took the sweater, while another buddy was waiting for me in the car... and that friend (the 1st one) wasn't home, but I came in anyway and took it with permission from his mother who, strangely enough, lived in the apartment below. Anyway, that's all I can remember about it. I came down in the rain to my jeep, and drove with my friend there... I remember there were some minor complications... maybe someone tried to steal my jeep? Never mind. Another dream - I was in school... but it was my old grade-school!!! I was late to a lesson and the teacher was angry or something, but I didn't give a fuck and went out of class (she didn't want me in anyway). I also remember that I had to do something so I couldn't really be in class. There was also a poster or something which had something to do with me... like, an activity I participate in organizing or something. The latest dream which I remember the best, there were doors, behind each there was a tough mission to accomplish. There were weapons and items scattered about, and armed enemies were coming and shooting at you. After you died you returned to square one and had to pick a door again. And hell, those missions were TOUGH!!! The soldiers opposing you were very sadistic and actually very good. I remember the last mission I took the best - at first it began normally and stuff, but then my next assignment for that mission was to grab a large gauss-gun on a tripod, and use it to kill my enemies. The problem is that it was guarded by many soldiers, one of which was manning said weapon. I managed to break through and take control of the weapon, but the soldiers were all around me and there were a lot of them. I mowed a lot of them down tho, thankfully this weapon had infinite ammunition (something the other weapons didn't have). Strangely, the soldiers didn't really shoot back... Anyway, my next "assignment" was to take on someone with hand-to-hand, no weapons, combat. This "someone" appeared to be a fairly small dude, but he had bronze skin, and I was quite sure he was not human. Besides, his sadistic soldier buddies around him were quite confident that I don't stand a chance whatsoever. So we started to fight, and I had the upper hand. I managed to perform a lock on his leg, and was intending to break it (or, I think I did break it). The guy behaved like he didn't even mind, and didn't display any emotion, as if his victory is assured. His soldier buddies thought that as well. I'm sure I won in the end, because next thing, I had to go HtH with ANOTHER guy. And this wasn't a "guy", it was a 3 meter tall monster!!!!! I slowly said "oh shit" as I watched the creature, with skin made of STONE and long claws like a mantis on the end of its arms. Those claws, strangely enough, didn't connect to the arms, but hovered in front of them, as if its wrists were invisible. I gave up, and when the creature (who appeared to be more rational than the insane human soldiers) asked why, I explained that his claws are obviously hovering with the power of his mind, and I wasn't yet powerful enough to accomplish such a feat, so I'm obviously too weak for now. I don't remmeber what happened next, but I'm quite sure it let me go. Like I've said, those "missions" were all insanely hard.

[Wicked]

Had a dream about a friend of mine buying an X-Box and playing Halo II on it.

[Wicked]

Several dreams today, but I'm not going to write about them in detail (lazu ). One of them had me living in a world where aliens took over humanity, another one was me and some of my friends chasing a group of other friends of mine. The most important thing is that towards the end I became semi-lucid and was able to climb a wall like Spiderman.

[Wicked]

I had a lucid dream today. This time I called to speak with my subconsciousness. Strangely enough, it appeared in the form of a small, very old black man. Weird . Anyway, I asked him to enhance my confidence, but he said that "it doesn't work that way". I then asked him to enhance my motivation - the answer was the same. Next I asked him something (a question, not a request) I no longer quite remember... hope it wasn't important Anyway, after we spoke he pointed at Bulma from DragonBall Z who was suddenly also there some distance away and said that she's the... dang, I remembered the term he used only this morning! Anyway, he implied that she is responsible for linking all the subconscious thoughts of all people in a single sort of telepathic matrix. I then asked him (rather rhetorically) if I actually subconsciously believe in all that telepathic extra-sensory OOB etc. bullshit, to which he just smiled. That's it. A rather interesting dream, that was!

[Wicked]

Attempted a WILD today. Didn't work all that well. I think I've felt vibrations and buzzing sound, my head became heavy, but that's it - I didn't reach the state where there are colors and sleep paralasys conscious. I've entered a dream, where I dreamt that I'm still in my bed and trying to fall asleep while still trying to retain consciousness. I think I've tried to fall asleep that way, without realizing I already have, for something like half an hour or more! Anyway, just before waking up, due to several small details and a couple of large ones, I've realized I've been tricked (again!) by my dream, and I'm sleeping. I've attempted to summon stuff in front of me, but failed. My body was paralyzed, and so I couldn't try to do anything, and woke up at about 3:15 AM. When I fell asleep without noticing it was about 2:00 AM. Anyway, I fell asleep again, and had an interesting dream this time. Somewhat similar to Naruto (the anime). And it had George W Bush in it, and I think I was (sometimes) Sonic the Hedgehog weird... I was quite a good friend with Bush, btw. But I'm not going to go into details right now.

LUCID DREAM This is possibly my last entry in this journal, since I've started a notebook one. Anyway, I've had a lucid dream something like 10 minutes long today. I was lying on the sofa in the living room and was looking at the balcony, that was different than in real life. I saw a lamp post swinging with the strong wind, and almost hitting the window. It was swinging in a very weird way, like it was made of rubber. Then it started to approach the window, and then I realized it is a dream. I stood up and saw my grandma in the kitchen. The images were very detailed but not very clear. I felt as if there's something in my eyes that keeps everything blurry, like you know, it happens shortly after you wake up in real life... I blinked a couple of times and it became clearer but only for a second, and it became somewhat blurry again. I didn't want to clean my eyes with my fingers because I was afraid it might wake me up. Anyway, I've decided that I should make a reality check just in case. I approached the wall and tried to make dents in it. I suceeded making deep trails in it with my fingers, as if it was made of clay. Now assured that I'm dreaming, I went to my mom's bedroom, so that my grandma wouldn't see me attempting to do weird things. I tried to break the window to go outside, but I couldn't do it - it seemed that the glass was some kind of membrane that stretched as far as my fist would go, and didn't let me through, no matter how hard I tried to break through it. Determined, I then turned to the other, larger window in the room, took a running start and jumped at it, feet first. At first the membrane resisted, but as I struggled and pushed harder and eventually passed through it to the other side (I think it wasn't even damaged in the process), and landed in the yard. It seemed that I didn't even fall, as if the window was on the ground floor, while in reality it's on the third (in the dream I thought it was supposed to be the second). Then I tried flying, but only managed to hover, and even that barely. I then closed my eyes and imagined the surroundings drop down, and myself going through the air. When I opened my eyes I was around 15 meters in the air, slightly above the level of the building's roof next to me, but as soon as I've opened my eyes I started to descend back to the ground. I gave up on flying, and decided to have some fun with driving. I looked around and approached the closest car in the parking lot (which IS the yard of my building). It was a pretty strange and cool color, a golden red... like, a mix between gold and red (reddish gold maybe?). It also might have been a Renault, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I open the unlocked door. I think how I'm going to start it, and then I simply pull the keyes out of my pocket (the first time I managed to create an object in a LD!! Well, I never tried it before...). I don't have a driving license in real life, by the way. I started the car and try to turn it around, but I accidently smashed into another parked car. Whoops! I then pulled a reverse and turned the car to the exit. So I drive out of the parking lot, which was suddenly full of cars trying to get in and out, including a friend of mine who was driving an unfamiliar car (no the Volvo he has in real life), and he said to me "congratulations on the new car" or something like that, before I pulled out of the parking lot and started to drive on the street (if I've been driving there in real life in the same direction, I would've actually been against the traffic, seeing that the road is omnidirectional, but it seemed of no concern in the dream). A police car drove in the opposite direction, lights flashing (no sound though, they do this often in real life), and I wondered if they would stop me because of the wrecked front, but they didn't. I was driving some more, struggling with shifting gears because the handle was too short. Another friend of mine was suddenly in the car, and we talked about stuff. Then I thought to myself, why am I driving like a good boy, I can speed up and do whatever I want! But before I could do it, I had to stop for some reason I no longer remember. So I stop the car smack in the middle of the road, and get out. My friend is telling me something but I'm bored, so I approach a nearby parked car, a relatively small one, and try to lift it. I lift its front, then I raise the front more and more, and the higher I raise the car, the harder it becomes (obviously, since its harder to push something over from the center than from the tip). I struggle a bit, and finally flip the car over without too much effort. Then some guy, apparently the owner of said car, comes out of the house nearby. He didn't seem infuriated or something, but it was pretty obvious he wanted to hurt me for doing that. So I laugh in his face, saying something like "what can you possibly do to a guy who has the strength to lift cars??", then he's starting to pull something out of his jacket, and I wonder if this is going to be a gun or a knife, expecting some more fun. Instead, the guy pulls out... a couple of tiny rocks he strikes them together, what produces a tiiiny spark that falls on me, and then he throws these rocks on me and says "HA!", and I like, WTF is this guy for real? So I wanted to demonstrate some of my might, and I've decided now it's a good time to try energy shooting. I waved my hand towards his house, trying to ignite it or something, but nothing happened. It pissed me off a bit, so I approached another car, a yellow one, bigger than the previous one, and flipped it over as well. It was a lot easier now since I was lifting it from the side and not the front. I think at that point I approached the guy, who kept annoying me with threats, I think (I can hardly remember a thing he said), and kind of dropped him flat on the ground with a slight push. Then his little son, maybe 4 years old, possibly younger, comes running from the house entrance to his father and says something like "please don't hurt my daddy". I replied something like "baaah shut up, I won't do anything to your daddy if he doesn't do anything stupid". Then I think I stepped aside to talk about something with my friend, the one who was in the car with me before. I noticed that he cut his hair very short (it is shoulder length in real life), and this haircut didn't fit him and looked ugly as hell Then that guy stood up and approached the car... which by now transformed somehow into a large motorcycle and says that he's going to take the bike from me or something like that, as his next attempt to "hurt" me. By this point, I had the impression that he's half-joking in everything he did so far. I tell him "go ahead, I don't care, it's stolen". The prospect of taking a stolen bike quickly dissuaded him (it makes no sense since it would've become stolen the moment he took it without permission, but anyway...) Then, something intersting happened. My friend and maybe also that guy asked me what the heck happened that I'm acting like that, stealing and ruining things, while usually I'm a law-abiding citizen. They took a few guesses I don't remember. Anyway, I told them that the REAL reason that I do that it's because it's a dream. I was really wondering how they're going to react, since from what I've read from other's experiences dream characters usually deny that and it's nearly impossible to persuade them. But their reply was something like "oh" and "OK fine". Then me and my friend started to walk away from there, and I, in my curiosity, asked him whether he believed me that this is a dream. He doesn't answer. I repeat the question, but he still doesn't answer, and I know why - I'm starting to wake up. I didn't resist the process much at first since I didn't know what to do, but then I remembered some of the techniques and shouted "increase lucidity!" but I didn't even hear myself. I then felt myself lying in the bed. My eyes were closed and I didn't see anything. I still shouted "increase lucidity" and obviously didn't hear myself (since I could hear what's happening in real life), but my real mouth didn't move, even though I could still "feel" my dream mouth shouting. I've kept trying some more but I've realized I've started it too late, and I won't be able to come back into the dream, so I've shortened the inevitable process by jerking myself awake.

I had 3 lucid dreams this night! THREE!!!!!!!! And it is the SECOND time I ever attempt my new technique of subconscious suggestion, and it's the SECOND time it works perfectly for lucid dreaming!! (I attempted it for the LD in the above post as well). Unfortunately I can barely remember the first two LD's since I was too lazy to write them down when I woke up from them. -_- And those three aren't counting the NAPS I had in the morning. I had many very short naps, I was lucid in like FIVE of them!! They were very short and fuzzy, but still, I was aware that I was dreaming, and had a bit of control!! 7 LD's a night?? AWESOME!!

2 Lucid Dreams this night! And one of them was SOOOOOOO realistic!! It was no less real than reality! I looked at my hands, and was amazed that I could even see the pores, just like I can right now when typing this! Amazing! Other than that, none of them was remarkablr, unfortunately.

Awesome LD today!! It was very realistic, and I had a lot of control! But the best part is that I spent the whole second half of it doing sex with random women

[Wicked]

Another lucid dream today. VERY vivid. At first it was so vivid that I almost didn't believe I could control anything, and because of that I didn't even know what to do. But I repeated to myself that it's a dream, I am dreaming, and approached and flipped a car. Dunno what I have about flipping cars in my LD's I went and flipped a second car, but the third car was a Hummer, so instead I entered and began to drive. Since there was a "story" going on in my dream before I became lucid I kinda continued it, only in a lucid state and with powers. I remember that I've successfully tried a new "ability" that I never tried in a LD before, but I don't remember what it was!! DAMN! At some point I've also admired the realism of the setting, but rather than admiring the "texture" of one object, I actually admired how DETAILED my environment is. I was in some kind of office and I could both see the texture of the wooden desk, the leaves of the potted plants on it, various letters lying around and a million of other small details. I remember admiring the processing power of my brain, which can "render" so many little details simultaneously.

I've just had, THE most awesome non-lucid dream ever. EVER! It was awesome because it was one of those "story-telling" dreams (God I love them so much!) I'm warning you though, it is LONG and lasted almost the entire friggin' night. It began when me and my family temporarily moved to some "special" place, like a college or settlement or something, not to live there but to study or something like that (I remember other people from my school there as well). We lived in some kind of dormitories, apparently. Anyway, it seems that I was training for the military, but I don't think it was a combatant role. There were two guys training along with me, like in the same unit, and we were good friends, only it seems THEY were combatants. At least one of them were, since he was highly praised by... someone (someone qualified, a commander possibly) for his excellent abilities as an excellent, maybe even elite soldier. The other guy was considered a lazy fatass and wasn't a very good soldier . Anyway, it was obvious we two weren't as shining as that guy, but we three were still good friends. So anyway. A bit later into the dream, I see into this good-soldier guy POV as an observer (like, I get to watch what is happening to him in the dream while I am NOT physically with him). He enters some kind of tunnel that is located in the same huge campus / settlement thingie we live and train in. It's like a sewer or something, it's underground and there's a mist, a creepy environment overall. Then (badababoom!) he sees aliens (of the grey, large-eyed kind) which apparantly attack him or something. He is shooting at the closest one in controlled bursts with his M-16 (apparently) but it seems that he scores only glancing hits, or maybe not. What I'm quite sure though, is that there were small chunks of flesh flying from that alien's sides, but it didn't even wince at the hits. It fired a large pulse of energy at the soldier (apparently with a rifle of its own), scoring a direct chest hit and making a hole the size of a fist, and I can see what is behind him through this hole. Cut back to my own body. Apparently, I was not that far away from that place physically. I don't remember that part very well, but it appears I've spotted aliens and was running away in an attempt to reach my home/dorimtory thing. Several times during this run I entered a building to elude the aliens, only to find it was swarming with them as well. Now that I think about it, maybe it wasn't me after all who was running, maybe it was the fatass guy... that's because the last scene I remember is being pretty much trapped in this large mall-style buldings with aliens all over the place. Anyway, I don't remember how I escaped, but I (this time it was ME for SURE) was back in my "home" again. I wasn't really scared or anything, just wondering what are they doing in this place, and are people aware of their presence. My sister was home and about to leave, so I apparently asked her where is my, or our next class or something like that (I asked her where is the place I'm supposed to be in, in short). She gave me instructions to that place, I think, but I got a little suspicious. I've inserted some small questions into my speech, which supposedly only my sister knows. She answered them pretty well, but I suspected that she's merely repeating something she rehearsed (although these small details were very insignificant... not something other people would know). Anyway, I think I told her in her face that I think she's an imposter. Then, she smiled and laughed. She was one of those aliens disguised as my sister, and the instructions she gave me were apparently to some alien "slaughterhouse" or another place like that, not to the place I was supposed to go. Although a bit scared, I think I tried to assault her. She just laughed and said that she cannot be killed with anything I might do. I struggled with her, and for the most part it appeared that she has the upper hand. During the struggle we kind of moved from the living room to my mom's bedroom (apparently this place was build exactly like my apartment in real life, although during the dream it would change layout many times) She was saying that there's only one way to kill her kind, and it was a great secret. I think that maybe she also hinted that it has something to do with damaging her spine. Anyway, with some clever maneuvering I managed to take something sharp (either something metallic or a pencil, anyway it was pencil or pen-shaped) and stick it right into her open mouth, very deep. She dropped wide eyed to the floor. I breathed in relief and turned to go away, but she was faking it - she jumped at me and the struggle resumed. She laughed at my attempt to kill her. I grabbed her head then, and TWISTED it 180 degrees, hearing the neck break with bone *click* and *clacks* (damn, I am NOT telling my sister about this dream ). It didn't kill the bitch! The struggle continued from room to room, back into the living room (her head apparently returned ) The cool thing is that all this time, she was talking with me and taunting me - it was not a silent battle. At that point, I was pissed off enough that I decided to "cheat". Do you ever get the feeling, even in a non-LD, that you are "special" and have "powers" or something like that? Apparently, I was aware that I could control my environment any time I wanted. In fact, remember that before, I was running away from the aliens and got trapped in a large building with them? I'm quite sure that I escaped by willpower alone (I "imagined" myself away from there). Anyway, I didn't want to use these powers, since I was really interested in seeing the outcome of this story and since I am not supposed to have superpowers in real-life, using such things would be cheating. But by this time I was pissed off enough to cheat. I grabbed my sister and swung her around with super strength, throwing her at walls and the floor. I think at that stage she reverted to her true alien form (again, grey with big eyes, you know, the classic). Anyway, I was determined to kill her. I think I used those "powers" again to create a cloud of special bacteria that were designed to eat alien flesh. I think that did the trick, and she was consumed entirely by them. But obviously, I did that by cheating, and that was NOT the mysterious "only way to kill them" she was talking about before. That invulnerability by the way is why the alien before was so indifferent to M-16 fire. Anyway, again, I watched through the POV of other people. I think they were a search party that was looking for the missing soldier. Strangely enough, I am quite sure my parents were with them. Anyway, they were just going down that sewer pipe thing the soldier went as well. They looked around and didn't found his body (the aliens apparently took it), but they did see something else... one of them (maybe my mother) said "look, there are bodies there" and a second later, "Oh my god, they aren't human!" or "these are aliens!" or something along these lines. Yep, there were several alien bodies floating in the shallow water of the tunnel (I think... or maybe they were simply lying on the ground). Of course, I knew that they cannot be killed... sure enough, they started to rise. Someone shouted "they're not dead!" and that's it - I didn't see what happened to them next. Everything after that is very fragmented, simply because it was so LONG. I encountered many other aliens (although all of them were disguised as humans, I didn't see any greys from that point on) and struggled with them as well, but didn't find how can I kill them (even though I tried). Some interesting points - I discovered there was a race of other aliens (they were more like animals though, not technological) that was apparently a "hunter" of the grey aliens. That race looked very similar to the greys, only they were taller, had smaller heads and completely different, carnivorous faces. At some point I speculated that maybe these hunters are the mysterious only way to kill the aliens, but an alien I was apparently struggling with or something at the time told me that it's not that - at most these hunters could take a chunk of flesh out of the grey, but could never actually kill him. Another intersting point was when a group of aliens (obviously, they were disguised as humans) kidnapped a certain girl I wanted to save (I don't remember why, but I don't think it was from romantic interest, although who knows). They got on a bus, and I got into it as well, but I didn't have any money. I managed to smuggle myself in anyway. That girl was sitting next to her captors - I don't remember if she knew they weren't human, and I don't remember whether she went with them willingly. In fact, I don't remember anything from this point on That's it. That dream was AWESOME. There should be a horror book based on it.

Reporting 3 recent LDs. Or, more precisely, I'll write my accomplishments in them. 1) Managed to clone myself for my second time ever! I produced a single clone which was slightly different than me (darker skin, shorter) but he was made so on purpose. 2) Did a ninja-style flip over a group of people. 3) Managed to summon a knife by pulling it from my pocket. Second attempt at pulling a knife again failed, resulting in a small strange pebble that begin jumping around the corridor and injuring people (it was happening in my old junior-high). That would be all for now.

Another couple LDs to report. This time no new tricks, but I practiced several old ones. During the first LD I think I commited the most difficult super-strength fit I've ever done. I used one hand (I think it was only one hand...) to lift a table (which I THINK was crammed with things) by its tip, while some fatass was sitting on the other end. I lifted the table entirely above the floor, so that all of the four legs were in the air. Psychologically, such a thing is a LOT harder to do than to lift the front end of a car (something that I do regularly in my dreams), since 1) It's a lot easier to grasp the weight of a human being (more so a relatively heavy one) than the weight of something as heavy as a car. 2) The fact that I was lifting the table by it's TIP while the OTHER tip was occupied by something so heavy made a huge psychological difference over partially lifting something that is supported by the ground on the other end (a car). The second LD which I had this very morning not an hour ago, I'll describe in its entirety. It began in my school, during night. Somehow, I think I actually created that setting myself, since I remember telling myself how weird it would be if I were in school blah blah blah, all the while watching the scene materializing. Anyway, me and other people were getting out of it as fast as we could, because it was supposedly infested with aliens who love the dark. So we climbed the fence and narrowly got out. So me and two of my friends are walking on the way to our homes, talking about stuff that I won't describe here cause they are not important. Additionally, one of them asked the other to stay over in his place, and I promptly asked the same thing. Anyway, we reach a certain alley, and I stop and I say nevermind I don't want to sleep over you go right ahead, they asked why is that and I tell them that I've just became lucid this very moment and I want to try some things. The first thing was to test my strength, unsurprisingly. They watched me as I tried to punch a nearby wooden fence. But my arm refused to move properly, something that I bet everyone occasionally experiences in a dream. Since I was lucid, I concentrated on my sensations and pinpointed the problem - the muscle between my shoulder and elbow, you know which one, felt weak as hell (EDIT: Actually, that might've been the bone, not the muscle. Anyway, the location of the weakness is one thing I'm certain about). I couldn't punch properly because it couldn't propell my arm. I tried it anyway, but the punch was moving so slowly and was so feeble that it merely bent the fence. So instead, I pushed it with both arms, and a large section of it violently came apart. My friends then said that it wasn't a big deal and that they've done that in the past too, and were a bit dissapointed that it was all that I wanted to show them. I was curious, and asked them if they were lucid, and if they could, say, fly right into the sky. I don't remember their answer, if there was any, I think they answered me indirectly. Next thing, I see people approaching us. Fearing they might be the owners of the house whose fence I toppled, I start to walk away from there. I see one of my friends trying to punch the fence like I did, but he can't damage the fence (either he was lying before, or he has the same "arm weakness" problem as myself). I want to summon a dream guide. So I continue walking a bit more, experimenting a bit with teleportation on my way (making small several-meter "hops" forwards and backwards). Then the dream strarted to disintagrate, and in my hurry I started shouting "I simmon my dream guide!!!" repeatedly, until all I could see was white fog and I could feel myself lying in bed. That's pretty much all. Overall this latest LD was one I had a lot of control over. I felt that I could succesfully accomplish almost anything I set my mind on doing.
