hahah, I doubt that. Let the dreams begin

lucid yesterday. it was pretty long and i reeally don't want to write it down. i'll use the camera for this one. and i'll hook up my tablet to the computer so i can illustrate my entries for yall

i had 3 dreams and completed advanced TOTM last night.

1) i'm in my house or my grandma's house, i don't know, because the house doesn't exist in real life. massive infestation of rodents- they were living in the mattress and everything. my grandma was catching them and storing them in the microwave, alive, and i was angry with her for doing that, because they could escape. so i turned on the microwave. my grandma pulled at me while i was pressing the buttons but she was surprisingly weak. i knew i didn't want to watch the rodents' bodies explode or anything so i didn't watch. i went into the bedroom again where my mom was on the bed reading, and i sat there and realized that there might be more rodents (i think they were rabbits) hiding in the walls. so i grabbed a chef's knife from the drawer that was next to the bed, just as an enormous rabbit put its front legs up on the side of the bed. i sliced at it and was finally able to kill it, and then i found a small bite of flesh in the side of my leg. i was very mad.

2) i think i was lucid when this second dream started, and decided to try TOTM. i was flying, heading out the atmosphere. the atmosphere was unusually thick- not by viscosity, but the distance it extended from earth. i was passing through layers and layers of fluffy clouds, and i was wondering why it took so long. i was amazed at how vivid the images were, and i passed a dark thunder cloud with realistic, vibrant lightning. it was gorgeous. i tried to speed up and immediately found myself in outer space. i hadn't seen the solar system leave behind me. i guess i skipped that part. there were an abnormal lot of galaxies and nebulae and all that good stuff mixed in with the stars, and i couldn't decide where i wanted to go. i was still deciding when i felt solid ground materialize beneath my feet. i looked behind me and i was on a planet which looked remarkably like earth. buildings, etc. it was night and i had landed on a rooftop of a popular urban area. apparently people on this planet walked around on rooftops as well as on the ground, because there were people with me on this roof and on others. i found a metal PDA-like device by my feet that told me it was the year 58 on this planet. i looked around and realized that it was an advanced civilization, technology-wise. the people on the rooftop with me were completely human though- dressed like Earthlings, and they speak English. i said to a friendly middle-aged woman, who was with her kids, started talking to me as though i was a local. i said i wasn't from there and had to get going. i don't remember much after this. i remember going to a garage sale, doing some shopping, and going to a meeting before flying out the window.

3) i watch in third person as Velma is trying to force Daphne into this metal elevator-like box. it was a time capsule thing. Daphne is able to trick Velma into getting locked in instead. then i take Velma's place and try to get out. i'm barely, barely lucid and stupid, so i don't remember that i've already completed TOTM. i can barely remember the task too, so i "remember" it as "go to a different place in time". i get out of the elevator/time machine and i'm in the far future. everything and everyone is a blue plastic gumdrop-shaped thing, and the environment is pure white. no texture. just blue on white, wit the occasional metallic fire-hydrant thing. then i fly through the gumdrops as though it's outer space, trying to find a new planet. (remember my thinking's impaired, so i'm really confused.) now i figure the blue things as stars. i'm flying past them really fast, but i "want my experience to be more realistic", so i try to slow the stars down, because i remembered that in real life, it takes a long time to pass stars. (my logic was bad in this dream, so you might not follow what i'm saying). i have no luck leaving the gumdrop planet behind, so i go back to the time machine to try another time period, and press a red button. i get out of the time machine and i'm in what i thought of as Mario world at the time, but it probably isn't now that i think about it. the environment was a computer generated valley and it was grassy, with giant red mushroom toadstool things, and waterfalls. i saw a small Helga from Hey Arnold, and picked her up and threw her. she disappeared and i got points. then i saw Tommy from Rugrats and picked him up and threw him. he didn't disappear right away. he just fell and continued walking around. i saw Angelica, threw her, and got points. then i saw baby Dil. i picked him up, aimed at Tommy, and threw him, hoping to destroy them both so i could get bonus points. it didn't work. i missed. i gave up and kept walking along the valley. as i got further it became a playroom. the story behind this playroom is that my parents went to some boring place to have a meeting, and there is a playroom upstairs for children to play. so what happened was, i walk out of the time machine, walk along the valley, start throwing Nickelodeon characters, walk further along the valley, and i'm in this playroom that comes with a background story. now my brother and i are upstairs in this playroom. the layout: it's a long rectangle room, red floor, gold walls. you walk in. there's a bunk bed-type structure on one side, a rack of CDs on the other side, and straight ahead of you at the far end of the room, there's a small 1990's TV with about 4 different game systems set up. (this room doesn't exist in real life). i started looking at CDs. i find one that i like. then i look at the back then can't find the song i was interested in because the names of the songs keep changing. i go to the TV with video games and notice how pristine the controllers look, even though the playroom is a public place. i pick an N64 game that's sort of like Mario Kart on motorcycles. i turn it on and accidentaly press one-player even though my brother is there waiting to play. i continue the one-player game anyway and i'm amazed at how easy it is for me to turn sharp turns and not fall off narrow bridges. as soon as i notice this, i start messing up. however, there are gems along the course which give you points if you pick them up along the way (like Spyro). i see 2 huge gold gems off course and go get them, then gems start appearing everywhere. i collect them all then find it difficult to maneuver. then i wake up.

notes: 1) you should know that i hate rodents, and my grandma once had raccoons living in her basement and she wanted to capture them and eat them. 2) i enjoyed flying through the clouds and through space more than i did on the planet. it was so beautiful out there. 3) the gumdrop future was probably inspired by one Spongebob episode where Squidward went into a time machine and the future was a vast white space with weird things happening. a future so plain and lonely like that is unsettling. even in my dream i felt uncomfortable. 4) i think i had another dream that i barely, barely remember: house, video game, underground, plane, genie, save baby

i had 2 more lucids last night. they were pretty long but i didn't have a chance to brand them into my memory/i was in a hurry to go to school.

1) when i became lucid, i revisited outer space because i hadn't had a chance to explore it. in my dream the other night, it was more purple. this time, space was black, like it's supposed to be. i was trying to recreate my experience in last year's non-lucid outer space dream. i don't remember the beginning or end of this dream.

2) this one was really long and i can't grasp the entire thing. i ended up in a dollhouse-like home. it was probably haunted. before i woke up, i was telling a blond woman to go to bed.

i had a near lucid last night- i questioned whether i was awake, but i just took a quick glance around as a RC and concluded that i wasn't dreaming- the room was a spitting image of its r/l counterpart, except the carpet was green. i won't do that rc again

i had planned on keeping this a lucid journal but i havent had any LDs in a while.

1) relatives, vacation, babies, water park, task, win diamond, ugly diamond, waterfall?, i can remember the dream switching for once:

2) i'm in my living room around xmas time. there are presents, pillows, furniture, etc. being used to create an enclosure for different breeds of dogs. the dream began with me standing outside the enclosure, behind a high-backed chair. a golden retriever jumped onto the chair and i started petting it. i "learned" that i had to pick a dog as a new pet, and that they were all female. i didn't want a golden retriever. so i told the dog to get off the chair so that other dogs had a chance to jump on it, but the retriever kept jumping back onto the chair. so i left the chair.

i went around the perimeter of the enclosure, looking for other dogs. i saw a gap and tried to fix it. i learned that even objects that stood only a couple inches off the ground were enough to keep the dogs inside. i thought that was odd but didn't think much of it. i went back to the chair area, entered the enclosure, and looked for a toy dog. i spotted a pomeranian, and remembering that they were all female, quickly grabbed the dog i already own, a male pomeranian, and put him next to the female. i hoped that they were compatible, cuz i wanted a puppy. they started mating. then the dog breeder appeared. he looked kinda like this. he got angry with me and said "that's not a pomeranian, that's my wife!"

aw, that's alright. You're dreams are still fun to read
You'll get out of your Dry spell soon.

i had a dream yesterday: my mom said we were going on a cruise or something to meet F! i was so excited and wanted to call my friend and tell them. so we were in some sort of lobby and M was on the couch so i sat down next to her and she rested her head on my shoulder. then i saw I and wanted to greet her but i didn't want M to take her head off my shoulder. And my mom was talking to F. but M, F, and I were actually very busy and couldn't talk for long so i didn't get a chance to talk to Fre.

and during my nap today i recall(ed) the dream very vividly but then i forgot because i've been doing things since. i could remember the beginning if i tried, but i don't have the time right now.

eventually i walked into a courtroom and i was Chris Tucker and on trial for nothing in particular. everyone else in the room was doing cocaine. but i knew that if i did it also, i would get in trouble. i had a big pile of cocaine in front of me and i was waiting there doing nothing. the room was dead quiet. then someone handed me a packet of papers. i looked up and it was Jackie Chan (as Lee). apparently he wasn't supposed to be there- he gestured to be quiet and told me the papers were to get me out of the situation. then he disappeared into the hole in the ceiling. and i was no longer Chris Tucker somewhere around this time.

people looked up at the sound of my papers rustling and i hid them under the pile of coke.

i guess i was "free" and left the room singing a DB song. i rounded the corner in the hallway and my dad and DB were sitting on the couch talking. they looked up and my dad wanted to introduce us but i ran away covering my ears going lalalallalala. they followed me.

i ran out the building into a mall and spotted L, she was with a friend, on an escalator going up while i was going down on another escalator. funny i saw her because i was on vacation. i tried to run up the escalator so i could tell her about yesterday's dream with Mili (haha). but i gave because the escalator sped up and became steeper and more crowded. so i rode all the way down and L was somehow on that landing, at a vending machine with her friend.

i asked her if i could speak to her privately and she came with me into a movie theater. she turned into another of my friend, J, as i lost sight of her in the dark cinema. so i began to recount the dream when someone she knew came up to her and said hi. i was angry about being interrupted. when she was free again, i woke up.

my recall's improving.

last night i noticed an intensified fear of heights while dreaming. i was literally crawling, very slowly, up a set of stairs (it was very high up though).

it's happened before but with last nights dream i realized theres a trend.

i had a dream where i complained about my hand being freezing even when i wrapped it in a blanket. someone examined it and try to warm it between his hands and there was no change- woke up soon after. i had fallen asleep on my hand. the alarm on my phone was going and i couldnt press the button to turn it off, my hand was very extremely numb.

i felt very acutely the blood pumping back into my hand.

i had a lucid on vacation. autosuggestion worked

it was actually triggered this time. someone was there who was supposed to be dead, i guess, and my logic kicked in. it was really unstable and although i knew i could gain control, i didnt bother and pulled myself out of the dream out of fear that it would turn into a nightmare
