Last night:

I was lying down on my back and decided to try to achieve the trance state. I eventually gave up and turned over to sleep. It wasn't long, or it didn't seem like long, before I woke up abruptly. I started hearing this freaky music that sounded like it came from the x-files, but my radio wasn't on. The exact music I was hearing is very hard to explain. Anyway, so for some reason I started thinking I was being abducted by aliens.. *rolls eyes* stupid discovery channel. And I realized I couldn't move, and I was like nooooooooo! They're commmminnng! And then I was like --- SNAP OUT OF IT! YOU'RE FINE! Remember what you read... And I remember reading about the body/mind separation, so I was like...phew I'm fine. I just need to move my big toe...wait, why isn't it working?! Then I tried moving both feet, they moved but I still didn't break the unconnection thing... So I was like..FREAK! But I stayed relaxed. The next thing I knew I felt and intense tugging sensation like a suction cup had been placed on my body and sucking me up into it. I felt myself starting to separate from my body, but again for some reason I got scared and was like NOOO! And tried to wake up my body so it would stop, but it was too powerful and yanked me out. I blacked out and fell asleep.

Next: My lucid dream

This was later on... I decided to take a light nap. So I'm in a store, trying to buy something with a gift card that had no money on it. I forgot what I was trying to get but everytime I left the store and went into another one the scene kept changing when I would leave the store. Before I knew it I was on a plane screaming, "Where's the door I entered!!!!" I decided that since I was dreaming I might as well relax and follow wherever I was going before I woke up. I'm not sure where I was but all of the sudden my dad was there. We went to some hotel and asked about dinner. We said we'd check in and get dinner later. The woman gave us a stern look and said, "Dinner ends at 2!" I was wondering was she was freaking out so bad because 2 in the morning seemed like quite a bit of time for dinner to me. So after me and my dad left and we were all happy we didn't need to do anything allll day except explore the city. We passed a woman in the hall in some store/mall area who had a bunch of food. She started telling me how to make a delicious vegan meal called..the dip? I don't know something wide and deep, but I'm not sure what the name was. She said I take dough, line it in a foil pan and just FILL IT with tomato sauce. She showed me the one she had that was like Sparkling something. Then she said to fill it with lots of vegetables and to cover it. She had a HUGE cart of vegetables that she was attempting to cover with her dough. It was quite comical to watch. She kept going on and on about something and I think my dad was getting impatient so I tried to speed things up by asking her if you just bake it. She took out a whole thing of little juices that were still stuck together and started drinking one. After what seemed like an eternity she stopped and said yes, and then tried to give us the juices. I was like no thanks and we left. Later down I told my dad not to be impatient on the astral when talking to other astral beings because they could be angels disguised as beggars or whatever to test you. I always told me...we're in the astral anyway so no one is going to try to decieve us. I remember telling myself to stay lucid so the dream wouldn't drift. I saw an old beggar man lying on the ground who jus appeared after I had told that to my dad. The dream faded and I woke up.

Well my weird dreams...are really weird.

Alright so I think I was a mother, I'm not sure. And there was this little child running around my house. Actually I think I may have been the aunt or something. At first we didn't want the child to come in the house because there were bees everywhere. And when I opened the doors all the bees were stuck on the walls. So I got nervous and told the child to stay outside. It switched to some scene where I was with the kid and I guess it was a guy...but we were taking a sheet of paper and lying it on the floor and when we pulled it up it left a mark, like a stamp I guess. So when he did it and pulled it up there was like a skeleton of a child on the ground. And somehow I knew exactly what was going on. When he picked it up it was like a body suit with a spine and there were like muscles all around the suit? And it slowly started turning into a child I guess. But the child was hollow. I don't know it was weird. And then I was telling the boy that this is how they infect people. Because the child thing was his shape and size. I said they form themselves this way so they can slowly infect the children they want. And I think in another scene the little kid took over his body and he turned blonde and had blue eyes... wow that was confusing. I'll leave the dream there because the rest is just as confusing if not more...

Oh I had a dream about ---. His hair looked so different in my dream, like he had it spiked or something? But when I saw he had the same class as me I got really happy I think he had 2 classes with me in my dream. One of them was a spanish class that wasn't being taught by ----, so I was like as long as ---- isn't here that's good enough! But then I had some dream that I was trying to marry this guy for his money, well my mother was making me who was some HUUUGE FAT white woman, and I was a white girl with like pigtails and a yellow dress or something... And this gross lookin' man kept callin' the house and my mom gave me the phone and I was pretending to have just woken up. And so he wanted to go to some trashed up restaurant and my mother got all madddd I guess it was because she was expecting him to take me somewhere fancy..... I don't know it was weird.

Most of my experiences on the astral plane I believe to have mostly been lucid dreams...for example I had a dream that a woman was pulling me out of my window, at first I was hesitant, but then I decided to grab onto her hand. Outside of the window I hovered over a great city, it was beautiful, but it scared me out of my mind because I am quite afraid of heights. I decided to not be afraid since there was no way something "bad" could happen that would affect my physical body so I went with the flow and soon I ended up in a classroom. I jumped out of another window and ended up flying over a field. It was a pretty experience. In another dream I was at a Burger King and some spanish people came out of no where in SWAT gear. I started cursing them out in spanish (no idea what I was saying) but they left, when I went into a nearby room with my friends they were extremely upset over what had happened, I guess the mob scene shocked them. One was crying and I was extremely angry at her for some reason. Then I realized I was dreaming and instantly decided that I must be floating, I looked down and saw myself hovering above the floor. DUH! IT'S A DREAM! I quickly grew excited knowing I had complete control over the dream. Time I have actually projected felt mostly like dreams because my sub has taken over a majority of them, so I decided to train my conciousness...so I'm taking a much more serious approach to astral projection. I bought a 90-day guide to AP book, which I am starting today. I'll probably record if I have any weird experiences. Just by reading books about astral projection my mind is already acustomed to the idea...anyway! Just though I'd throw that out there.

Okay now everything from here will be in order:

Date: July 2, 2007
(12 PM)

People to remember (code names used)-- LD, BT, OH, HG, MG, MGS, AA

Scene one- I am with BT in a bathtub I am guessing. I don't remember there being water. He was combing/detangling my hair for me, which I found quite odd.

Scene two - Still with BT, but I believe OH where there as well. I think I kissed/madeout with OH, which is something I had not planned to do at all as I felt no connection to him. I forward to different place where I am with BT and I feel myself trying to get rid of him because I don't want us to get close.
-I'm not sure if OH was there or I was relating him to BT. That scene was quite confusing.

Scene 3
I'm at a school with LD and AA. I think it was a college area because I remember seeing dorm buildings. So I am going to class and I run into AA. I talk to one of his friends who is the same ethnicity that he is. As I was walking one of his friend I think ram into me/take my movie ipod. Well he tries to but I stop him. AA looks confused, and I walk away from him.
Next Scene - I'm with LD. Well not with him, but in the same area. I watch him walk away and as he comes back I jump on him and tumble him into the grass. I ask him to play soccer.

Scene 4- I'm in a hall with HG and MG. For some reason there is a talk of white bronzed preppy girls. Someone starts talking about some type of political thing in the news? Something about there being a train that blew up, but the people were really black. And I'm like what? And HG looks at me like he's surprised I have no idea what she's talking about. I try to act like I know and then give up and say I'm not really into politics. MG is there too, I think she was able to actively engage in the conversation.

Scene 5-

I am with my parents. Well my dad in the first part. He, me and my sister are in a room. It looked like a small apartment, it reminds me of a dorm room now that I think about it, but slightly bigger. There was a fridge and my dad was there... I don't remember too much about this scene, but I think were hanging out. I believe he gives us our allowance in this scene as well.
Next Scene- It's the same room only me my mom and my sister. My mom is given 120 dollars from my dad. I start looking in the fridge and notice everything is arranged like it would be at a grocery store which the little slide things that you find in drink machines so when you take one out it fills in. I think that makes sense. Anyway so I start to organize it from juice to soda, etc. I thik there were little notes saying which went where. My sister helps me put it back together. When we are done I get extremely hungry and go searching for some food. I pick up a muffin and check the ingredients to see if it's vegan (I'm vegan) so for some reason I can't find the ingredients anywhere. So my sister points to the wrapping or something and it says EGGS MILK, etc... and I was so close to eating it because I was so hungry, but I decide I can find something better to eat. I believe the dream ends here. And then I hear the lovely lawnmover outside of my house.

You have realy good dream recall! Keep it up

Thank you. I definitely will

Date: July 3, 2007

Time: 10 AM

Notes: Find that sometimes when I do dream recall I get a whole bunch of dreams, and sometimes when I'm remebering my dreams I start forgeting the first dream scene I recalled.

I'm only going to write down 3 because the rest are too fuzzy to recall. (edit///I started remembering some more of my dreams as I wrote others down)

Scene 1- Death?

I was at a house with my friend (my house?) and we were hanging out. Now it starts getting a little confusing for me. I'm not too sure the exact sequence because some parts are blurry, but all of the sudden...wait...I'm getting another dream:

Scene 2- Death II

I'm with a guy and someone comes in with a gun. I think the guy had blonde hair, not sure. No, maybe he had dark colored hair... Anyway, he comes in waving around his gun and I get all nervous like please don't shoot us. I don't know why but he shots the guy I'm with. I'm not sure if I was dating/married/really good friends with the guy because I start to break down. I pick up the gun and shoot the guy who shot him twice and then shoot myself. Scene fades.

Back to Scene 1- All of the sudden I think we pretend? to cut out our livers. I know that she cuts herself in the side, which in my dream I assumed was where her liver was. And I become devastated and cut my own because I think that if she dies I was to be with her in the afterlife. I remember hearing "At least they're together now". Then I remember going to my room and lying on the ground and closing the door so I could die slowly. I think I felt a little pain, but I guess it was mock pain. I don't know. So I hear my mom go "oh my god." But it doesn't sound like how a mother would really sound if she lost someone so I assume she is looking at something else that has startled her. She opens the door and see me and still doesn't really freak out. I figure I could have called her to help save my life, but I don't want to live I want to be with my friend so I pretend to be dead. Okay this is where it gets confusing... Then all of the sudden it's not my friend it's my sister and we're both pretending to be dead and I see she is kind of crying and I feel bad, and then she starts laughing because she realizes I'm not dead and that the blood looks a lot like red paint or kool-aid stains. I get up and laugh, "I was trying not to move!" and then my sister comes in and says, "I know I was trying not to laugh!"

Scene 3 -- Dream Journal

I had a dream about this dream diary. I had a dream about the post that says that I have good dream recall and should keep it up (I read it before I went to bed) and in my dream some random guy responded to it saying thanks, and I was like what..? She's talking to me?
-dreams about the internet bug me, lol

Scene 4 ---Gas station

- I'm at the store surfing around and I noticed there a lot of black people, which I find strange because I'm used to seeing mostly white people or usually no one. So I'm like great, I'm probably going to see someone from school. I was in a gas station of all places, which it probably why it confused me the most. I assumed it must be the new "hang out" place. Then I start seeing a bunch of "gangster" guys and getting a little nervous because they start staring at me. One kid is who ridiculusly short starts pointing at me and talking back to his friends and then procedes to follow me. I start walking faster and going to the counter to buy something (still have no idea what I'm trying to buy--but I guess this could be a recurring scene) and I lose him for a second. But then the guy at the counter makes it difficult to buy whatever so I give him a 20 and a quarter because the change for whatever I was trying to buy was 25 cents. He plugs in some numbers and the cash register starts buzzing and making noises so he gives me the 25 cents back because he doesn't know how to process 20.25 in the machine to determine the change he should get back... So I'm like fine just whatever. When I buy whatever I start moving back to somewhere and the guy starts talking to me. He said something around the grounds of, "Hey girl." or something like that... and he asks if I want to hang out. I think I either answer No or I don't answer at all. He gets angered because he is trying to impress his friends and I'm trying to blow him off. Something happens and somehow we start up a conversation and I notice he is actually a really cool person. I think he may have turned into someone else because he starts to look attractive. It also could have been a symbolic thing --good personality = starts to look good. I'm not too sure what happened after this.

Scene 5-- Uhh Movie

This dream wasn't particularly interesting, but here it is... I was somewhere, possibly a school. And we don't know what to do so we start watching episodes of House and everyone is falling asleep, and I know I'm bored... My friend MG is there, and she was the one who suggested the movie. I get a call to go somewhere. For some reason I feel it was an emergency like I was working for a hospital and I was needed to help with a surgery or something. So I keep getting held up and it bothers me, but eventually I'm able to go.

Scene 6-- No idea...PT

This just came to me so it's quite fuzzy. Apparently I was at some dinner party with my parents' friends. We get in the car to leave and my dad leaves everyone behind including PT who had just been coming out to the car. So I'm in the car like you should go back. I think he does and the guy PT pronunces my name horribly, like he always does and I remember seeing a letter, but I'm not sure what it's purpose wwas.

*****This dream is pretty long so you'll have to bare with me if you're reading this.

Date: July 3, 2007
Time: 9:00 PM --after taking "short" nap


I guess I shall entitle this work of art by my subconcious-- The Guy

I'm in my house and my mom tells me I need some type of shot and that I'll be going to the Doctor soon. Next thing I know I'm at school with a bunch of other people, some I recognzie, some I don't. Over the intercom system someone tells us that those of us who need to leave for the Doctor should do so immediately.
<br> Forward to a scene of me going down a hall on a scooter? While doing this I decide I am not going to retake my AP US test, I am remembering a scene in my dream of a man telling students that if they are going to take the AP test -especially US History- they need to take it home so they can do an open-book sort of thing. Then I remember another scene in my dream (I am remembering scenes in my dream while on this scooter thing) where I am upset because I had the chance to do it at home, but I blew it off and decided to just turn it in. Forward back to me on the scooter deciding that forget it, I'll deal with my grade the colleges won't care about it anyway. I'm guessing I get off the scooter and go back to walking around the school with my friend.
<br> I end up outside where a lot of people are on a Truck. I hop on the truck next to my bud MG. We start talking and for some reason I think my ethnicity comes up and I say I have no idea or something around that, but I do know that the lady about to drive the truck turns around and says "Well judging by your hair you must be a mixed mutt." Somehow I am able to see my hair even though there are no mirrors, it looks the way it does but with crazy highlights in them similar to my dog's. She laughs and turns back around. She begins to drive and a couple of the kids hop off. I get confused and stay on with my friend (MG). I ask her where we're going.
<br> I later find out we're going to the Hospital for our shots. I say, but I'm not getting my shot with the school and she says she isn't either. I think all of the sudden we were on a cart? We both hold on to each other as it slides down the railings. Whatever we're on flies over a bridge and I'm scared by the height on top of the fact that we fly over a part with no railing system. I ask her what we are going to do? She says we can just do this to skip school for a while and read magazines at the hospital. I start thinking that we can hang around town and come back when our time is up. Then I start thinking about how stupid the system is and how easily we can get away from school.
<br> We end up in a building. All of the sudden I feel a lick on my leg from little dog. I ask my friend what he is doing here, she says he was with us the whole time. I try to think back to the school and the truck or whatever and all of the sudden I remember him being there and say, "Oh." Then some guy calls me and asks me to show him my dog. I put my phone on video and show him my dog. I hear a bunch of collective, "Awwww!'s" Then my dad calls me and asks me where I am, or actually I think I call him and tell him to pick up the dog when Aisha leaves because then it'll make things easier?
<br> Then I pick up a little booklet written by that guy in 1408. The top looks like it was slightly burned. I open it to find 3 pages of victims. I see a guy next to me, and my friend is across from me. I remember the guy from the theater so I start raising my voice to get my friend's attention like OMG look at this guy's face!!! And that grabs the other guy's attention so I look at him and tell him he can see it after her is he wants to. We start talking about the movie and remembering that it is PG13 I ask him if he's 13 to be funny. My friend starts laughing like, "Duh, he's not 13" I look at the guy and say, "I know. You know I was just joking right?" He looks back at me and laughs a little and tells me he is, I'm guessing 18 because he holds up 4 fingers on his left hand and tells me he is turning 19 soon. He looks a little dorky and very shy, but I find myself very attracted or at least very interested in him. Then MG gets up to leave and he asks me for my phone. After he makes a call to his house he gives me the phone back. I figure if I never get the chance to ask him on a date I can always call the number in my cellphone. He asks for my cellphone again, he checks it somehow. I'm not too sure what he did, I think he was making sure the call had ended. He gives me the phone back.
<br> I find myself alone in the room. He comes back in and tells me not to laugh at his ugly looking car. I tell him I'm not much of a car person. He tells me that his car looks straight out of the trash or something like that and even someone who isn't a car person would find it hideous. I tell him I'm sure it look's fine. He leads me outside to show me the car anyway. Surprisingly it's a very nice looking car and I can find nothing wrong with it. It looks a lot like LD's car. Then is transforms to a smaller car that looks more out of a junkyard, but it's still not bad looking. Some buttons, I think they were buttons, in the front of the car look like they have mustard stains on them. They are very yellow and it looks like he tried to scrap part of it off. Suddenly my friend MG is there again. She looks at the car and says, It doesn't look bad at all but you're going to need a bit of "diamond?" to scrap that stuff off. He tells her that he and his family have tried everything and it won't come off.
<br> We re-enter the building and he enters in his car, which has now changed into a sort of upright car? It's like there are no wheels, he only had a small platform to stand onto which it held up and supported by 4 bars on all sides of it. He presses a button and I find it is powered by steam. It hovers up, enters the bulding, and then sets down again. Me and my friend both gawk at how it's sooo environmentally friendly. I hang around the desk area while he and my friend go else where. For some reason I start eating something and the clerk shouts out, "Dweeb!" at the guy and some white stuff starts draining out of my mouth, which I am sure looked quite unattractive. For some reason I believe the clerk was a friend of mine who did that on purpose because she knew how I'd react. My friend (MG) scolds her and comes back over to me. I wipe the stuff off of my mouth and start laughing so as not to look too embarassed. She tells me if I want to move I need to move quick. She shows me some keychain with two hands and starts moving them together, a hint that I should go over and hold his hand. I find this to be a stupid idea as I don't even know the guy that well, I just remember him being someone who saw the movie!
<br> I decide to go to the bathroom to clean up my face if there is still guck on it. I am stopped when my friend tells me that the girl on the box looks just like me. I don't see it at first, but then I see a full blown picture of me next to some other girl on a box that I guess was showing a dress because we were both wearing some fancy dress. She tells me, "Well, she looks like you in some parts of your body." And she begins pointing to my stomach, legs, etc... Suddenly that guy is next to me and yells out, "I love you! I love you!" And I am quite shocked by this, but for some reason I get filled with emotion, turn around and grab him and start hugging him somewhat passionately. We start dancing to random music that starts up and he curtsie's while pulling out his pant-leg while we are dancing. I start laughing and telling him, "I don't think you're supposed to...Oh nevermind I don't know much about dancing anyway!" And continue dancing with him and then he gets uh...excited. And I kind of move a little away from him while still dancing because I don't want him to get embarassed like I did earlier. He seems a little embarassed anyway, but I continue to act like I don't notice anything. Scene fades.


Draw curtain.

Astral Projection Dream

I believe I had a dream that I was trying to Astral Project. My room was very dimly lit and I was feeling that if I projected I wouldn't be able to see much, then I wondered if the bathroom light was on so I could project into there.

18th Birthday/Glass on the floor

It's my birthday, I'm 18 years old and there is a birthday for me at my house, but it is just me, my sister and my parents. My mom tells me that now that I'm 18 I'm free to leave. From what I can remember the scene seems like it took place in ht eliving room of my old house. I remember there being glass on the floor. Then we start talking about some woman who is part japanese and part mexican. A book is open with her biography and she is on the television as well. Apparently she got into drugs and it ruined her career. I ask my friend Y, why she has "squinty eyes" and he gets offended telling me they are german, not quinty. This confuses me, but then I start thinking about people I know who are from germany and it makes sense. Next I start asking about children somehow. I think Y asks me something and I tell him, "Well, it all starts when two people fall in love and then want to share that love..." And while I am telling him that I start picking up the glass off the floor and piling it into my hands and tell him, "I just want to plan early." I sit on the couch with the glass still in my hand and say, "Omg I'm 18... I just realized that I'm 18!"

Music Award Show

I am at some awards I think the BET awards. I remember seeing a sign on the screen that says "Couldn't handle sad" or something like that and the artist Christian Milian comes up to the stage and starts talking about how she was supposed to play the leading role in Love Actually, but was unable to handle the saddness she had to deal with in playing the part. When she dug into her inner self for saddness it would overwhelm her to the point where she couldn't act because she was too overcome by it.

Woman from Love Actually

My dream comes to a scene featuring that woman from Love Actually...I forgot her name, actually I probably never knew it. Anyway she is taking us on some tour of her house and the cameraman zooms up on her butt so close that the camera is pressed against it... and when it takes it away it looks unreal like two pads underneath some pants that are able to move around. She says something like, "My butt is something something something as my (lady part) except my (lady part) is blue so you'll probably kick me in the a-- and then my (lady part)." No clue what she meant by that. I do remember her being quite pale as if she had been in the cold for a long time.

Acting?

I think this scene led up to the Birthday scene, but after we go into the House of the woman from LA it ends up being me and my sister. She tells me to get on the floor and pretend like I am crying or very sad. I try and she says, "More! Give me more!" And I'm trying not to laugh and at the same time I don't want to act. And she's like, "No! Be more sad!" And tells me that I need to stand over the hot air vent more to get more inspiration and that if I put my hands over the cold air vent it'll leave me. I go over to the hot air vent, but end up at the cold one and start losing my will to act and then I go over to the hot air vent and start to get it again.

No this is how you spell it!

I'm preparing for college, I think...and as I'm writing an essay down some girl somes over to me with 2 pigtails and starts telling me words I spelled wrong. I scold her and tell her that all the words are spelled correctly. I believe the words are the ones where they seem easy to spell, but many people mispell them. I do think that one was loft or lift. She says, "No! This one is wrong and so is this one... did you use a spellchecker?" I look at the paper and say YES! I did! I start remembering when I used it to write the paper. I scream at her that they ARE spelled right and that she needs to leave me alone. She starts laughing.

Random pictures...

I have some reason there are pictures on my phone or website or something... and I change them to be 3 by 3's of random people I know and then I ask people to guess which one is their picture. A friend of mine asks me if I put her picture up there and I say, "yes" and quickly switch out her picture for someone else's. She asks me if I put my picture up there as well and I say yes even though it's not up there.

11 AM

Very bad dream recall, I got only glimpses and then I lost them. I didn't have time to lie in bed and think about my dream because I woke up late so hopefully I'll remember them throughout the day.

Nice Dj. Good recall and content. I also like the Astral aspect of your dreams. You should post your progress in that area here as well.

Cool that you kept your head during that False awakening. I always assume my will is strong enough to power through those, but it never works.

Using a few paragraphs would make your entries easier to read (When did I become the Paragraph Police?). Also, lucids seem to come pretty easily to you, using different color text helps clear things up.

I use these colors myself. I think that color scheme originated from the site LD4all. At least use the blue for lucids.

The Sleepover

I'm at my house when my friend asks us to come over. A lot of us realize we need to take a shower and she says she does too. She tells us to come back after taking a shower. One friend points out how pointless that is because when we come back we're just going to sleep. We all leave anyway.

When we come back D, sure enough, is snuggled into her sleeping bag. I go over to her and try to wake her up, she makes groaning sounds and turns back over. I realize that it is kind of pointless to just come over to someone's house to just sleep. A few people stay up, and I think D eventually gets up because of all of the activity. Someone asks me if I want hot cocoa, I say because I am a vegan it needs to be real cocoa and no milk should be in the ingredients, but it's fine if there is sugar. All I really wanted was a bowl of flour and cocoa so I could mix it with water. Why? I have no idea...that doesn't sound too appetizing. So then Z gives me the bowl, but it has cocoa puffs floating on top of it. I think that was a bad idea because I need to mix it up and the cocoa puffs will just be all mushed up so I scoop them out, mix it up, and then I think I drink it after that.

The Sleepover II (Hell/Demon?)

I'm not sure if this was the same sleepover or a different gathering, but whatever. I'm in a room with a bunch of girls and I think we were talking about a scary story about the house or about something. A few girls get bored and go outside. I see the scene with them setting up sticks and burning them. Back in the room the girl I am with screams, "OMG it's on FIRE!" and there are several trees on fire. I turn away from the fire like I could careless and soon we hear a firetruck.

I decide to start taking pictures of the girl I'm hanging out with. The camera dies after I take the first picture, but I notice there were some words that flashed on the screen of the camera before it died. I turn the camera back on, it works all of the sudden, and I see the words KAREN IS (JILL?). I freak out because Jill was the name in the scary story we had been telling. I quickly tell Karen to look at the camera. The words start changing when she looks at it and a messages starts sliding across the screen like Karen is... *fades* and some words tell her she must go to a hell and she must take her sister with her. I start freaking out because it starts hypnotizing her into doing it and says "Tomorrow morning, both of you must exit the front door at the same time. Take her with you." She nods silently and I run downstairs to tell her sister (C). I was able to see images of the thing that was telling her to do this and the place she was supposed to go to.

I tell C I'll drive her home because I need to tell her something and it's an emergency, then I remember I can't drive but I tell her I'm willing to do it anyway. A friend of ours tells me she'll drive. I'm surprised she can drive, but I let her anyway. "C! You have to listen to me, whatever you do DO NOT leave through the front door with your sister tomorrow." I explain to her everything that happened and then her sister enters the car. C turns around and tells her, "Karen we should hang out tomorrow. I'll even give you (beef jerky?) if you do." She says something to Karen like they HAVE to hang out tomorrow and she'll even pay her if she agrees. I freak out and look at her for an explanation. She tells me, "There are some things you have to go with other people through."

School...

I'm in some type of class where a teacher is explaining a lecture to us. A lot of people stop listening and then we all shift to the left--we are sitting on the floor--and F starts lecturing even though he is a student. MH is there. The classroom is extremely dark and there are candles for light. I can't remember too much after this.

Where am I?

I am in some type of room, it might have been another classroom. It looks like a party is going on. The lights are dim but there are lots of them in different colors. I never acknowledge I am dreaming, I just know I am. The one thing that catches my attention is I see two guys doing..unmentionable..things. It grosses me out, but a crowd starts gathering around them. I feel the dream start to fade so I start to spin around in circles and even though I am spinning I don't get dizzy. When I stop the dream blacks out and I wake up in my bed...but I think that was a false awakening.

Dreadlocks

I am in a mall and there is a guy sitting in a chair. His dreadlocks are huge and extremely long. I watch them get pushed up into the air by a machine that starts to braid them. I am amazed at how his dreadlocks could get so long. Other people stop and stare.

Ew, eggs.

I am at home, my dad cooks me some eggs and puts it in a bowl. I start to eat them, knowing that I am not sticking to my strict diet. I start to imagine where the egg came from and how the yolks are supposed to form a baby chick. On top of that the eggs are covered in butter. I get sick and stop eating the eggs.

*Umm I had a few other dreams, but they were a bit sexually explicit and I'm not too sure how I can clean them up so I'll have to end it here.

Cool that you kept your head during that False awakening. I always assume my will is strong enough to power through those, but it never works.

Using a few paragraphs would make your entries easier to read (When did I become the Paragraph Police?). Also, lucids seem to come pretty easily to you, using different color text helps clear things up.

I use these colors myself. I think that color scheme originated from the site LD4all. At least use the blue for lucids.
Regular Dreams
Lucid Dreams
Comments
Hypnagogic Imagery
False Awakenings.

Yea for the whole paragraph thing I'll start doing that, a lot of the entries I entered were just from blogs and stuff where I didn't really have to worry about anyone reading them, but then I realized paragraphs make it easier for me to read later anyway.

As for lucids I'm starting to have them by thinking "I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming" before I go to bed. If I do this, I have a least one lucid.

I'll do that color-coding thing as well.

UUUmmm gracias

Peace

Your dream's are always so long. I can never remember mine in that much detail!

You know the funny thing is when I first wake up I can barely remember much of anything, but the first thing I do is mentally jot fragments of scenes down and then I go through each one and re-dream it in my head and as I do that parts of the dreams comes back to me backwards and I'm able to remember more. I try to think of people I usually dream about and I'm able to get a little more that way as well. I've always been fascinated with what goes on in this crazy little mind of mine.

But thanks for the comment I didn't know anyone would be interested in reading my journal

Thats quite a good idea actually.....the only diffiiculty with dream journals, is forcing yourself to write something down, when all you want to do is close your eyes and go back to sleep!

We have similar recall technique. I also try to focus on a person or place first.

You DJ looks fantastic by the way. And that image of buttered eggs just totally ruined my appetite.

True that! Sometimes I try to mentally note it and hope I'll remember when I wake up xP

I think I should add (GET MORE SLEEP) to my list of how to get better dream recall...

I need an alarm

So my friend comes over to my house to ask for an alarm clock because she needs one to time her while she's in the shower so she'll know when to get out. She had something to go to and I guess she didn't want to be in the shower too long so I go to my room to give her my alarm clock. The only problem with it is it's all busted up and she needs to set it forward an hour past the time she wants it to go off for it to work right. She isn't too happy about that and asks if there is another one. I start thinking of alarm clocks and tell her she can get a timer at the dollar store.

We're in Sally Beauty supply looking for a timer. We go to that store randomly for some reason and I say, "Oh yea, they sell timers in here too." She goes over to get a timer, but her "friend" comes. She looks at V and they start talking. Earlier I had told her (certain?) people only would buy a bag, or picture frame, or something that was on a nearby shelf. Later when her friend is about to leave her dad buys it. We both stare at them in shock.


We can ride bikes together

I am at home when I notice a guy get off the school bus that stops in front of my house. MH steps off the bus and I'm surprised he lives so close to me now. He turns a corner and goes down a neighborhood that I guess had been remodeled because it looks huge now. It's a beautiful sunny day and I want to go ride my bike. He comes over to me and say hey and I think we chat for a bit, but then he turns to go home. I figure I can ask him to ride bikes later.

I get on my bike and start riding around the neighborhood. I figured he had a lot of homework to do, which is why he was still inside of his house. When he doesn't come out for a while I go somewhere else and I wonder why he talked to me earlier, but now he doesn't want to go ride bikes.

Under Thin Ice

This is probably my most confusing dream...Nevermind this IS my most confusing dream. It was extremely fragmented and hard to understand.

I'm hanging out with a couple of people. It was back in the 1950's and the whole dream scene seemed monotone in color and mood. Everything seemed a different shade of blue and we were all on the ice. Someone was left responsible for something. Some guy was trying to prevent something from happening. I come back to see a hole in the ice. Someone doesn't want to get found out for something so three people jump in. The guy left reponsible for everything and I try to pry a guy and a girl out. There is another girl under the ice, but we don't try to save her. I guess we both figured she was dead.

SODA!

I sit on a couch next to a fridge. My dad comes in and pulls out what seems to be the last soda in the fridge. I look inside the fridge in disbelief. He looks at the soda and says, "--- look, it's extra oxygenated!" I roll my eyes and pull out the actual last soda, which happens to be some berry drink.

Mm I know this is because of my "no carbonated" drinks thing. My mom often makes fun of me for it when she brings coca cola home.

Alrighty that's all I can remember!

I will sleep at 10 tonight.I will sleep at 10 tonight.I will sleep at 10 tonight.I will sleep at 10 tonight.I will sleep at 10 tonight.I will sleep at 10 tonight.

Hidden Camera Sitcom

I'm with my friend MG and we are in some big building. It looks much like a hotel. For some reason we need to hide from some guy so we start running all over the building. We enter a library and hide in the stacks.

I go to one area and there is a table with kids under it. They are all about my age so I hide under there with them. A woman comes over to them and starts yelling, "And they were jumping off the body parts too!" She keeps mumbling about how foolish they are. I realize she is talking about a musem area where the furniture is shaped like different body parts. I remember seeing a foot and a leg. I run out from under the table so I don't get in trouble,

I run back into my friend and we keep trying to hide with little success. Eventually we run into some man who invites us into his office. From what I remember in the office my friend did most of the talking. While we leave I hear him talking about putting the scene on air. I am confused, but I'm interested in seeing what my friend looks like on TV.

It isn't too long when I leave when I see a large TV over the office with us talking to him on it. Both of us. For some reason I look extremely stupid. In one segment I keep trying to pronunce his name over and over until it sounds right. I sound like I'm drunk or have a speech problem. Then another scene flashes on where I'm pulling my dress up and you can see my bra underneath, but it looks like it's part of the dress. I keep hearing laughter in the background everytime I do something stupid like it's some type of sitcom. In the next segment I pull my dress completely off and put it back on only it's inside out--more laughter. I am angry and not at the same time as I watch this. Part of me is angry because I am being exposed without my knowledge or consent, the other part of me is not angry because I'm in the public view and it'll be easier for me to get a job or something...

Outraged I run to find my dad. He tells me that I shouldn't do that type of acting, it's the only crap that sells nowadays and it won't get me far. I tell him two actresses that have had silly roles such as the girl from the Princess Diaries and the one from Legally Blonde. He says to me, "I love Legally Blonde!"

hehe that was funny. My nice used to watch that movie like every other time she would visit me.
