Title: The Plunge

I was in a city that had a 3rd world feel to it, but it was more along the lines of a once powerful industrial city, that lost its former glory and fell into poverty.

It was very unfamiliar to me, and I was alone, I saw a building that looked very out of place, I walked into it
and I realized it was my High School.

I walked in, and I was late (I am a lot IRL), the attendance teacher handed me a late slip and told me to wait at the assistant principals office. Then a guy I've never seen before offered me to smoke with him, so we lit up cigarettes in the waiting room. (A missed Dream Sign)

My name was called and I went into the office, but instead of it being her office it was a short stair case.

I walked down the stairs and they led to a jail/holding center.
I think there was a military takeover or something.

I open the cell door and there are a few of my friends from school.
The girl I have a crush on rushed to me and hugged me and kissed me.

JUMP

I'm walking down the street of the same city, with a girl I don't know. I feel guilty that I'm not with Ashley (the previous girl)

We turn down a street and suddenly the view changes from 1st person to 3rd person, the "camera" shifts a dramatic distance, of at least 50 ft away, and goes about 15-20 feet above me and her.

All I can see for miles are warehouses, they are all identical.

They're huge, about 3 stories each, but their depth go on for a long time.

Each one has a giant smokestack on them at least 100 yards tall, they are emitting different colored smokes, Orange, Red, Grey, Pink.
Each color represents a different crime lord's hideouts.

I get the feeling that this girl is a rebel of some sort.

We climbed on top of the "Mexican" warehouse, and as we climb I feel happier and happier.

I jump about 10 feet up(Another missed Dream Sign), onto a catwalk that circled the smokestack.

We began climbing again.

I got very close to the top, when the girl turned to me and said "Look at how beautiful it all is"

And it was, I turned and looked, the sky was red and black, like it was dusk. I could see a huge moon sitting on the horizon.

I was in awe.

Then I looked down to see how far I got.

I looked down and realized I wasn't standing on anything.

I fell.

I kept falling, faster, faster, and faster.

AWAKENING

---

this dream was so intense that I still can remember it vividly.

Decisions, Decisions

A group of people have to agree on something, and they knew that the outcome of the decision could change their life. But they kept refusing to vote.










wow, thats a pretty boring dream lol.

I just woke up from a nap, so I'm writing down my dream.

From now on...
My personal comments will be in italics
Missed Dream signs will be in green
Parts where I go semi-lucid will be in red
Parts where I do go lucid will be in blue

I think I got to be semi lucid, as I do remember controlling parts of my dream, but not realizing it was a dream.


School Retreat
I'm on a school bus going towards a winter retreat for students, and I get the feeling that this is not "adult chaperoned".

I'm sitting in the bus, across from a friend of mine, I know I talked with some people for a while, but I don't remember any of it. I realize that there is music blaring, and its Coheed and Cambria.
Its coming from a boom box on one of the seats in the front row, I apologize to the kid in front of me saying, "If you want to turn it down you can" but hes ok with the music being loud and then all of a sudden I'm taking a nap.

When we get to the retreat I get out, and its snowing real hard, and the pastor from my mom's church is there saying, "Its snowing real hard, I think most of the activities will be in doors tomorrow" and then he just disappeared.

Then me and my brothers get assigned a cabin that has two floors a kitchenette a living room but no bathroom(I thought this was odd).
Victor and Christian automatically choose the upstairs "apartment" then immediately following bed choices, I go to bed.

I don't sleep tho, and a large part of my dream was just me trying to get comfortable enough to go to sleep (thats pretty weird).

I wake up finally(in my dream) and everyone is gathering in like a ski lodge, with a roaring fireplace and all, I have conversations with a couple friends from school... (I don't remember them tho)

All of a sudden this girl Nikki, that I used to have a crush on was there, and shes telling me how shes here with her friends to sell pot. (Missed dream sign maybe... as she's straight edge)
But her friends are out and they have to go get more, and shes gonna wait here until they get back.
We sit on a couch in the lodge talking and holding hands, when all of a sudden a Wood Elf(from Oblivion the video game) came up and said she was a friend of my fathers and that she's worried about me. And that I should be more careful with what I do with my life(which this actually happened a few times IRL minus the Wood Elf... he tells his church friends all my personal problems and then when they see me they give me advice and act as if they know me... its a rather sore spot for me)

Anyway, I patronize her about changing my lifestyle(as I do with his friends and she walks away)

Nicole(Nikki) and I finish up our conversation and as I get up to walk away we hug(we always do this IRL, hug and a kiss on the cheek), but instead of a peck on the cheek I take control and open mouth kiss her, she returns the kiss and I say goodbye and walk away.

I'm walking towards my cabin, and its snowing lightly, and its dark out. I see my friend PJ and he's coming towards me. He asks me a question, and I'm not sure of the answer, so I stop my friend Vinny Ha, and ask him, and I get a conformation. PJs brother Dave comes up to me showing me a plant he has with him and hes worried about the cold, and hes berating himself for bringing a young plant with him to Russia.
I tell him he can put it in my cabin, so I go looking for it but everything is just random, so I'm looking for my cabin, and I think I find it, but its some creepy old guys. and as I was opening his door the handle broke off.

I finally find mine, and he goes into the kitchen to fill a pitcher with water, and he drops the plant. I run over an grab it and stick it on the landing of the second floor, where there's a radiator.


*then my cell phone rings and wakes me up*


It was interesting to say the least. lol. much better than last nights.

No dream/Recall.

No recall.

I know I had a dream, but I can't remember it...

Try sleeping with a large mouth bass under your pillow.

I don't know any tricks to improve recall, just don't give up, as long as you can still feel that lingering sensation of the dream, you should be able to get to it if you don't give up.

Plus it helps if you're well rested. Being tired does not go well with recall.

No recall/Dream... I was wasted


8/28

I was at some conference with my dad and 2 sisters. All of a sudden they're gone and I walk and get on a bus with some random fat black guy.
I ask some guy wearing biking shorts and a Lycra shirt if we're going to the Buffalo Convention Center and he said we were going to the Albright Knox Art Gallery, so I realized I needed to get off the bus, but for some reason I was too embarrassed to ask the driver to stop.
I realized that a Hindi girl(about 18 y/o) was whispering to her friend that she wanted to have sex with me, and I could hear everything she was whispering, even though she was in the back and I was near the exit.
All of a sudden the bus stopped and the back door swung open and I was thrown/pushed/fell out of the door.
But the bus had turned into an El Train and I fell like 50 feet and I woke up right before I hit the ground


(I've realized that alot of my dreams end with me falling... could this be a sign of something?)

I dreamed about Invader Zim... IDK what exactly.

No dream.



I went to bed at 5:30 this morning.




Do sleep cycles have any affect on dreaming?

No dream


vividness from 1-10 - 0

lucid or not and if so then how long and what kind of control did you have? - no dream
What time did the dream take place (middle of the night, after getting up and going back to bed, sleeping in...) see above.

I don't remember much, but I know I was on a date, and she (Jessica, the girl from my other thread) was asking me questions like "Chocolate or Vanilla" "Mountains or Ocean" "Love or Money", (which we had been doing in waking life last Thursday)
She kept asking me these questions, and I would answer, then she would give hers, and as we answered the world around us changed to fit them, we were originally on my couch, in my living room watching TV. Then we were watching a sunset from my living room, then on a beach,

and the dream ended with us cuddling watching the sunset, which seemed to take forever, and it filled the horizon.

No Dreams

I don't remember much I do remember having to fill Glad Force Flex bags full of oil and we had to carry it across a parking lot... my bag ripped and solid stuff(knick knacks) fell out so I stopped and had a cigarette and this black kid named Dex was talking with me, he and his family were waiting for his little sister, they were all wearing tuxedos. His little sister showed up and she had huge eyes.
