      Karillion at Night

      I have decided to type up my dream journal so I have a digital record of my dreams and to help improve my dream recall writing my dreams down in two forms. Hopefully some people will enjoy the randomness that is my dreams as well.

      Please feel free to comment.

      Dream 1


      Bizarrely, the first ever dream I wrote in my dream journal was about the dream views forums. The night before was one of the first few times I visited the site and I spent quite a few hours here before I went to bed, reading the many tutorials and recent threads. As a result, I was not all that surprised when I dreamt about it that night.

      The dream started off with me reading the forums from my computer. I was browsing for a while when I came across a guaranteed way to become Lucid in your dreams. I felt so pleased that someone had found this 100% method and could not wait to try it. Then the dream evolved from me being at my computer to being in a room where the walls and floor were covered in the forum. It was like standing inside the webpage. I remember there were people all around some people were having a magical battle of some kind, firing bolts of light in many different colours at each other.

      When I woke up I was quite frustrated that I had not thought about whether I was dreaming during any of this. However it all seemed perfectly normal at the time so I had no reason to question it.

      Dream 2

      I cannot remember why but I was conquering the planet of an unknown enemy and this planet was the last one they had left. The dream was playing out like some sort of strategy game and I decided to I need to build some troops for the final push. As my troops were being built I heard gunfire coming from round the corner. One of my generals had betrayed me and was killing my troops off as they were being produced. This continued for some time and my troops just seemed to keep running at him and dying rather than choose to fight back with their weapons (Gah! Just can't get the staff). I looked down at the floor where one of the guns of a fallen solider lay. It looked exactly like the pulse rifle from aliens. Then my second in command appeared and him and the betrayer faced off for a moment, each waiting for the other to make his move. I woke up to my alarm clock.

      Dream 1

      I am an army full of Japanese soldier’s but everyone speaks English. On one of our missions I come across some grass that is self aware and spend some time getting to know it (I think I was originally on a mission to capture it. Can’t remember what we talked about but I think it was basically telling me how evil my government was). The government had found another patch of intelligent grass and wanted to wipe out all the other intelligent grass with pesticide (Wouldn’t that only kill bugs? Anyway, this was bad apparently...).

      Me and my men rebel and launch a mission to save the grass by storming the facility where the government is held out. The battle played out in two parts, in the first part I had a shootout with some guards, all of my men behind one wall and all theirs behind another. In the second part I sent in a tank, that was only about knee high, to finish off the last few men. Eventually I got to the box where the grass was being kept and let the grass inside it know we were friendly. When I woke up I kept thinking about the film Short Circuit for some reason and noted this in my journal.

      Dream 2

      I am on site at a customer of the company I work for. The office is nothing like the real office but is the same design as another dream I had about this company. I find out one of the guys working there is also a programmer on a game I really like. I ask if I can see the game and he agrees.

      Instead of showing me something on a computer he takes me through another room and we walk into one of the levels from the game. I remember everything looking very old and gray, like a condemned building of some kind. I asked if I could see some of the special effects from the game and the guy says sure. He points to a piece of string hanging from an old chest of draws and says if I light the string I will see one of the fiery effects. I pick up some matches and try to light the string but cannot seem to do it. Eventually someone who reminded me of Samuel L. Jackson comes from behind me and does it for me. Something erupts outwards from one of the draws but it looks more like orange water than fire.

      Everything gets a bit fuzzy for a bit here but somehow I get in trouble with the police and run into a train station to escape them. When I get to the platform there is nobody around except a man in a trench coat. He is next to a post with an old fashioned clock at the top of it. He tells me that the police are chasing me because he set me up for some serious crime. He laughs manically and tells me that the police will never catch me however as he is going to send me back in time and prevent me ever clearing my name (Couldn’t I just stop the crime from happening then? Did not think of this at the time however). The hands on the clock start turning back at speed and I wake up.

      Dream 1

      I heard a rumour that one of the local soccer mum’s was seducing young boys far below her age and my friends younger brother was one of them. Me and my sister, both much younger than we are now, set out stop her (much to the horror of all the young boys, I imagine). Her house was like the little Wendy houses kids have and was located at the edge of woods near where we lived. I cannot remember much else about this one. Sounds a bit like the porno version of Hansel and Gretel though.

      Dream 1

      I was driving round some of the country roads near my house and was feeling very bored when I came across a bar with an outdoor stage, that I had never seen before. There seemed to be a gig of some kind going on and lots of people were gathered outside. I pulled over to take a look. I got out and looked around a bit and then ordered a snake bite at the bar (black current + beer + cider. yummy!). I watched the music, talked to people in the crowd and drank some more but eventually got bored again. I decided to head back to my car and to move on elsewhere.

      When I got to where my car should have been there was another car in its place. Someone had forced their way into the space where my car was, squashing my car like a pancake along with several others. My car now lay draped over the edge of the car I had been next to and was squashed down to a few centimetres in width. I picked it up with one hand and it didn’t feel like metal anymore but more like a deflated Lillo (it was also much smaller than my original car). A small crowd had gathered around where I was standing and I asked if anyone knew who the car that had taken my place belonged to, but nobody did.

      I phoned my dad to see if he could pick be up but he said he could not. I walked around near the road for a while before running into a colleague from work. He had a car and said that I could drive to my house in it. I started driving his car at some speed through the country lanes and a police car tried to pull me over. I was afraid of getting caught as I was over the limit and not insured on this car so I decided I would run from them. I came upon an urban area and lost control of the car. I skidded into a car dealership and wrecked several cars before coming to stop. The police car blocked me off and the officers jumped out to arrest me. I woke up.

      Dream 1

      This dream was set on the road where I currently live. There was some sort of local event and lots of people were out walking the streets. I came across one of my friends, who was on his motorbike (which he got rid of years ago). He was dating one my sister old friends and they seemed to be having a good time. I only talked to them for a little while before moving on.

      I headed to the tennis club which is on my road. The main building/bar was still there but all the tennis courts had gone and were replaced with fields of long yellow grass. I stood there for a while, in the sun, admiring the view. A beetle like creature, black and shiny and the size of a fist landed next to me. I moved away from it but another one appeared and I decided a prompt departure was a good idea.

      I came to the round-a-bout that is at the top of my road. A huge new sign had been installed, like the ones you see at the entrances to motorways. I read some of the directions on it but they did not make sense. Then I noticed that one of the directions had thrown a .NET exception (.NET is the programming language I use at work. When an exception is “thrown” it means there is an error in your code). I gigged at this and decided to tell the people who made the sign. Before I could move on I came across a girl and her boyfriend and I seemed to know them. I told them about the sign and they didn’t seem impressed (Not impressed by that thrilling story? Impossible!). They told me they were on their way to a puppet show at the local school and invited me to join them. I declined.

      The next think I remember is being in the offices of the people who made the sign. When I told them of the error they at first denied there was a problem. I made them check the system and then they began shouting at each other and were terrified that they would lose the contract for making the signs. They then began frantically trying to fix the problem. This is the last thing I remember.

      Dream 1

      I am in a movie that has been a great success. I remember thinking it was just a rip off of another film but it didn’t bother me that much. We are given an award for our movie and win a trip in to space. The vessel for the trip wasn’t the luxury vessel I was expecting. It looked more like a oil barge than anything else and was very rusty. There was no seating on the deck of the ship so me and two of the characters from the film just stood on the deck. I don’t remember taking off but soon we were flying on the ship through tall, glass skyscrapers and up into the atmosphere. I remember being afraid that were would have no oxygen once we got into space and worrying that if we did make it the rusty boat was sure to break up on re-entry. I was into the girl I was with however so I didn’t say anything and assumed someone had obviously thought of this (Hell, who needs oxygen when there’s a nice girl involved?). I don’t remember anything after this, maybe nobody had thought about it.

      Dream 2

      I am with the girl from Dream 1 again but this time she is doing some reality documentary and I just accompanying her while she is making it. Me, Her and a Camera Man were standing on the top of an old block of flats and she was telling me something about the area’s history but my attention was elsewhere. She gives me a tour of the flats and everything went very cartoony. At this point I seemed to find the girl even more attractive. I woke up I felt and felt a terrible longing for this girl.

      Dream 3

      The girl is back again but this time she is one of my sisters friends. We are staying at a hotel but are short of beds so I volunteer to sleep on the floor. My sister got up and complained that she could not sleep because she could hear a bell from the elevator in her room. I cannot remember why but this made me feel very uneasy and spooked out. Probably there was no elevator nearby or something like that. Then everything in the room became really messy and people were saying we should complain to the management. Still spooked out I said it was a bad idea and that we should just leave. I remember some people from next door coming into the room and then I cannot remember anything else.

      Dream 4 – My First Lucid Dream

      I woke up in my room and realised I had another twenty minutes before I had to get up and get ready for work. I decided to sleep again for the extra few minutes and in a passing thought said to myself “I am going to have a Lucid Dream”. My heart was not really in it however and my mind soon drifted onto something else. As I was drifting off I was stirred by the some strange noises. I quickly brushed these off as other people in the house getting ready for work however and continued lying in bed. The next thing I remember is the seeing nothing but blackness (this was strange cause it was light outside previously) and I could hear this eerie noise. I thought to myself “Am I dreaming?” and I then knew that I was.

      I got excited and decided the first thing I would do is stop the strange noise. I tried to will it out of existence but instead I could see my room again and was beginning to float into the centre of it. I got extremely excited at this point and thought about trying to fly out of the window. Suddenly everything started to become blurry, like a camera when it’s out of focus. I tried rubbing my hands together but to no avail and I woke up moments later. Still, I felt very pleased afterwards.

      Was that first part of your lucid a false awakening, or did you really go back to bed 20 minutes before you had to go to work?

      I am pretty sure I did wake up. I think I should rephrase that line a bit. I realised I had 20 minutes before I absolutely had to get out of bed and get ready for work.

      After I learned to stay calm when I became lucid, everything fell into place.
      I learned how to prolong my LD's, change the environment, change the DC's around me, and change myself.
      My method for preventing the dream from fading is to crouch down and feel the floor or ground. That seems to 'lock me' into my surroundings. Later on I learned about spinning and hand rubbing.
      got nitro?

      Thanks for the tip. I will try that when I next have a lucid.

      ---------------------------------

      I didn't have a very good nights sleep last night and can only remember one scene of the dream where I woke up.

      Dream 1

      Me and three dream characters were all scared of some demon that was in the area. We knew we had to exorcise it but were afraid it would kill us if we tried it. One of the DC's was trying to encourage us and started giving out items we could use during the process for protection. He gave me and one of the other DC's a glowing gem embedded in golden frame and said that we could use those. The other dream character asked what they would use and he told them they already had protection in the form of a ticket that was hanging round their neck. It looked like the sort of pass you get when you go to a festival. The dream character was not very convinced (I don't blame them. Festival tickets aren't known for there demon protecting powers). This was where I woke up and realised I only had 5 minutes before I was supposed to be in the office.

      These are some good dreams! Your first lucid sounds pretty good too. It's great the feeling of achievement you get after your first LD, isn't it?

      Keep it up!

      Thanks for the kind words . It really is a great feeling. I think I might try to WILD this weekend and see if I can pull it off.

      I think I started using Karillion a few years ago. Its a variation of a nickname I used to use in online games. Guess great minds think alike

      How did your band come up with the name?

      Hehe, sounds a lot cooler than the way I came up with it. Btw, is LudicrouSpeed from the film space balls?



      13/07/2007

      I haven't had much dream recall for the past week. Feel a bit disappointed by this set back as I was making really good progress at first. Had one small dream I remembered this morning

      Dream 1

      I am in a house eating dinner with an random DC and Del Boy from the UK Television series Only Fools and Horses. He starts telling me about how he got the house we are in really cheap because the Queen of England creates so much garbage that a huge landfill needed to be created and this house was built on top of it. Moments the house starts to sink into the ground and we have to run outside to escape sinking with it.

      Ok, the long version of the story is this. As I mentioned, Karillion is a variation of a nickname I use in games. The original nickname was Karail which I first came up with when I started playing the World of Warcraft. When I created additional characters in that game I made them all variations of my main character and the second name I came up with was Karillion.

      Now whenever I register on a forum I use my Warcraft nickname as it is rarely ever taken by someone else. If it is already in use, like on this site, I use Karillion. Not a very exciting story I am afraid
      In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and wisdom that separates us. Don't let your eyes deceive you.
