Thread: iadr's Lucid and Vivid Dream Journal

Wife's Birthday - End Of The Week
My wife's birthday is at the end of the week and I am thinking that I need to buy her a card. My reasoning kicks in and I realize that I am dreaming when I remember that my wife's birthday was 2 months ago.

Backyard - Dual Consciousness
I am outside in my backyard playing with my cat, while at the same time aware that I am laying in bed listening to some relaxing music. I experience the awesome feeling of being in two places at the same time, and being aware of both places.

Bike Trail - Dog Walking By Me
I am walking along this bike trail when I see a large dog walking toward me by itself. As it seems to be friendly, and I realize this is a dream, I continue walking toward it. It turns out to be a very friendly dog, something like an Irish Setter, that is wagging its tail as it passes me. To the side of me I notice a huge pile of dog poop.

School - Checking To See If My Wife Is Registered
I walk into the lobby of a school around the corner from where I live, where I am checking to see if my wife is in their system. As one of my cats goes to school here I am wanting to make sure that my wife is in their system, in case they ever need to contact her. Although I am lucid, it seems perfectly normal to me that my cat would be attending school here.

The lady behind the counter, who seems to be the principal, is looking through a tray of envelopes to see if she can find my wife's name and address. The envelopes seem to contain payments that people have sent to the school, as this appears to be a school that people have to pay to send their kids or animals to.

I start to tell her how my wife's name is spelled, but she seems to know how to spell her name already, as she tells me that their records are organized by district, which is why she is looking in this other stack of envelopes. I get the feeling that she has no record of my wife in her file.

Waterslide - Crashing Into Kids In Front Of Us
(Amazingly this lucid occurred within 10 minutes after going to bed. I'm unsure if my eyes were even closed when it started up because I had been doing these eyes exercises, looking up and down and to the sides with my eyes, when suddenly I find myself in the following dream wide awake.)

I am at the top of the giant waterslide with my wife, and there are several kids in front of us. I watch as the person in charge of telling people when to start down the slide is having them start down the slide too soon, as he is starting people down the slide only about 5 feet apart.

When it comes our turn to start down the slide, I ignore the guy when he tells us to start down the slide until about the third time he asks. Although I am thinking it is still too soon to start down the slide, I start down the slide anyway to keep the guy from getting angry with us. I am thinking that because we weigh more than the kids in front of us, that we will probably slide faster than they do, and run into them.

Sure enough, we run into the back of the kids in front of us about halfway down the slide, and stay with them the rest of the way down the slide. Fortunately no one gets hurt as we all tumble off the slide into the pool at the bottom.

Hospital - Floating Around
I am in a hospital with a gal R that I work with and often talk to about dreaming and floating in dreams. I am floating through the hallways of this hospital in a sitting position. I show my friend how to float, after which we both go floating around the hospital together. We are both floating in an upright position like we are sitting in chairs.

I am holding onto these small creatures like trolls, that have blonde hair, and which seem to be giving us the power to float. After we float outside, I notice some ladies below us who seem to also be able to float, although they are just standing on the ground at the moment. I feel impelled to give the creatures that I am carrying to these ladies, as they seem to belong to them. So we float down and I give the creatures to the ladies who are grateful to receive them, and thank me for them.

I then realize that I am able to float without these creatures, so float off into the air. My friend is unable to float now though, so she is just walking around following me. I find that I am able to float as high as I want, or in whatever direction I want just by thinking which way I would like to go with my mind. Although I show my friend how I am able to control my floating, she is unable to float now.

When we come to a window that is on the third floor of this building we are in, she asks me to watch her jump out of this window to a building about 20 feet away from where we are at. As she jumps out the window she falls to the bottom window in the other building where she finally is able to grab a hold of the other building. She tells me that this is usually what happens when she tries something like this.

I leave her and float off high in the air by myself, still in a sitting position, enjoying my freedom and being able to easily control which way I am going. After floating around for about what seemed like 30 minutes, it finally dawns on me that I am dreaming...finally. I decide to try flying, so change my position to lay on my stomach and begin flying through the air, although I seem to be going very slow. Finally, I find myself high in the air viewing some nice scenery below.

I decide to try to accomplish some lucid tasks and for some reason decide to try changing the weather, even though I have already done this one, and decided earlier not to do it again. Since it is a nice day outside I decide to make it rain. As soon as I decide to make it rain, I hear a forecast on the radio that it going to rain today. I then hear my wife complain that it is supposed to rain today, and I wake up.

(Big mistake trying to control this lucid too much. It was a great lucid when I was floating in an upright position, and I probably could have floated around for another hour or more, but when I started changing things around, it went downhill really fast, and caused me to wake up).

Black Lady - Teaching Me How To Make Love
My wife has hired this lady to teach me how to make love. When the lady shows up she turns out to be a black lady. Although not a knock out, she is very seductive, and uses this to entice me to make love to her.

I end up in a large building with her, like an apartment building where she takes me to this room that she opens with a key. When we go inside though, it is somewhat of a small room, with something like an orange colored gym mat on the floor, with no bed. She just stands there while I come up behind her and start kissing her on her neck and ears. I can tell she is enjoying this because she starts moaning.

I am wishing we were in a larger room though, so ask her if we could go to another room. She takes me to another room that is just a tiny bit larger than this room, which also has an orange gym mat on the floor but no bed. I start kissing her on the lips this time, after which she tells me that she wants more, as it seems like she wants to just dive right in and have sex.

I ask her if she could take us to a room that has a bed, so she takes me to another room, which is again very small, but which has a bed in it. There are small kids playing in this room though. She tells me just to ignore the kids because they don't matter, since this is a dream. Then there are all kinds of things laying on the bed. As I start cleaning the bed off, she tells me just to ignore them and have sex with her, as the things on the bed don't matter since this is only a dream. I go ahead and just lay on the things on the bed and have sex with her.

RS - Change your age
I decide to do the advance challenge of changing my age. As I am walking toward an elevator that operates like a time machine to change people's ages, this man is with me planning to go into the machine, as he is thinking I was planning to change his age. I tell him that I am planning to change my age, not his, and then walking in the elevator.

The elevator goes down, and when it stops I come out and am 5 years old. I really feel nothing in particular, other than being smaller than I am now, but am given a backpack to carry my books in as I walk to school. (I remember having been given a back pack by parents when I was either in the first or second grade, which really made me feel important, but I would have been older than 5 years old at the time).

LB - Make a light bulb light up by holding it in your hand, mouth
I decide to make a light bulb light up while holding it in my mouth, so put one in my mouth and concentrate on making it light up. Amazingly, I feel current going through my body up to my mouth to light up the bulb. When I concentrate on lighting up the bulb while holding it in my hand, I feel the exact same thing, current going through my body, and up through my arm to light the bulb.

RA - Ride an animal of your choice
When I decide to ride an animal a small donkey appears in front of me. I climb up on him and find him very easy to ride as he moves along so slow.

CT - Climb a tree
When I decide to climb a tree, a very small tree appears before me, only about 5 foot tall, that has branches very close to each other. I climb this tree very easily. After climbing back down out of the tree, and deciding I would like to climb a larger tree, a very large tree appears in front of me, and I am suddenly much larger myself, like a lumber jack. I climb this tree like a telephone pole, climbing straight up the side of it without even using the branches.

DF - Do flips, backwards or forwards
I begin doing flips, first frontwards, and then backwards, only they really feel very mechanical, and I am doing them very slow. Later after walking on my hands in another task I become much more flexible, and the flips become automatic and very fast.

WH - Walk on your hands
While standing on my hands, I take a couple of steps to help keep my balance. I then find that I am able to just stand on my hands in one place and stretch my body way out in front of me while keeping my balance. This ability to stretch so far allows me to start doing flips at an incredible rate of speed, both frontward and backward.

JT - Jump on a trampoline
While doing the hand flips from another task, I flip myself right up onto a trampoline. I am bouncing all over this trampoline, doing multiple flips in the air, both frontwards and backwards, usually landing on either my back or front when hitting the trampoline, but bouncing right back up again. On one flip I get a little carried away and go right off the trampoline, but when I hit the ground, I appear to be on something like a pogo stick, because I bounce right off of the ground back up onto the trampoline.

WT - Walk a tight-rope
While jumping on a trampoline from another task, I take a big jump, and end up on a tight-rope. My shoes are very slippery though, and I slip right off the wire, and have to catch myself, and pull myself back up onto the wire. I then imagine myself wearing magnets on my feet which allows me to stay on the wire. I am only able to slide across the wire though, as my feet are stuck to the wire. So I slide to one end of it, and then back to the other end. (I hope that's considered walking. That's the best I could do.)

WW - Walk up a wall
Since I already had magnets on my feet from the last task, I decide to do the Walk Up A Wall task. I find myself in this small room where I walk up the wall, across the ceiling, and down the wall on the other side.

PI - Play a musical instrument
Shortly after deciding to play a musical instrument a flute magically appears in my hands. This is different than a normal flute though, as it has buttons that play different tunes or rhythms automatically. All I have to do is to blow into the flute and push one of these buttons, and the flute takes off playing on its own. Good thing, since I have no idea how to play a flute.

River - Floating Down
(This began as an image stream and turned into a lucid as I was able to keep it going). I am floating above a body of water where I notice about 5 people out in the water playing. As I continue floating along, I look around and see a couple people on the shore doing something. I am thinking that it is because the time of year it is that there are so few people here. After getting to the end of body of water, I turn around and come back the other way. While coming back I notice a motor boat going through the water, and a camper on the shore. It is very peaceful here.

Theater - Zombies Coming To Life
(This was another image stream that I was able to extend into a low-level lucid).
I am inside this very large theater late at night, and am on a side balcony that hangs out from the side. As I am looking around, a bunch of zombies come to life and start moving around on the stage. Although I feel a bit terrified by the changed atmosphere, I stick with the lucid believing that the zombies are unable to detect my presence. I then find myself very high over a city looking down on a canal that runs through the city and observing various constructions going up in the city.

Glass Stairway - Walking Up
I am walking up this glass stairway that is on the outside part of this building and is enclosed in glass. (At this point, I feel like I am in an image stream or else remote viewing). I am up very high in the air, about 20 floors, and am able to look out over the city from my elevator. (As I continue following the scene, it turns into a lucid dream). When I get to the top of the stairway, I find myself on the top of this building, which I later sense is a parking garage, although it is only about 15 X 20 feet. Since I realize I am dreaming I decide to dive off of the building to see what happens. So I get a running start, and dive off the building. Instead of falling like I had expected, I find myself floating in the air, even with the roof of the building. A bit later I find myself walking in this glass hallway high above the city, which hallway is only about 20 feet long and 8 feet wide. As I look out the glass at the end of the hallway I can see tree limbs and branches. I then lapse into another image stream where I am at a subway entrance.

Apartment - Saturday Night
It is late Saturday night just like it is IRL, and I am in a kitchen of an apartment where I am staying instead of my house. The wife seems to be out of town, so I have been staying here by myself all weekend, and have done none of the things I usually do on the weekend such as my laundry and grocery shopping. The apartment suddenly takes on a strange feel, as the walls seem to be slanting in, which causes me to realize that I am dreaming. I tell myself several times that I am dreaming, after which I wake up.

Gal - Pulling Myself Into
I am somewhere with a group of people when I see a gal who I know I am supposed to be with. When I see her, and get ready to give her a hug, I suddenly realize I am am spirit, and that I am dreaming. So instead of just giving her a hug, I pull my entire spirit into her spirit and become one with her.

Second Gal - Showing What I Did With The First Gal
I am walking down this long hallway, after which I come to this lobby area. I meet a gal there, who when she asks me about something, I tell her what I did earlier when I pulled myself into this gals spirit. As she is interested in knowing more about this, I take her to the place where I had done this earlier, and demonstrate to her what I had done earlier by pulling myself into her spirit.

Building - New Job (Long Image Stream Into Lucid)
I am in this building where I am starting a new job, and am walking down this long hallway to get to the place where I work. There is a lot of green in the hallways. At the end of the hallway I go through some metal doors and head to some escalators that take me up to the main part of the building. The escalator I go up are really long, and look even longer when I get up to the top and look back down. I end up on somewhat of a small platform where I am able to look out over all of the people below me. It seems like I am in a stock exchange, as people are running all around doing things.

The scene suddenly shifts, and I am upstairs at the desk that I now work at. My boss, who has just been talking to someone who works next to me, comes over and sits down in a seat in my office. After telling me how impressed he is with my work ethics, he tells me that if there is ever anything he can help me with to let him know, after which he leaves.

The scene now changes, and I am driving my car down a freeway where I take this ramp, where I end up behind this car ahead of me that is driving really slow, as he appears to have a flat tire that he is driving on. When we get onto the freeway I go around him.

I am now in a room where I notice a cord hanging down from an overhead light. Although the light stays on I hear what seems to be the cord being pulled down and turning the light off or on.

Miniature Golf - Playing (Long Image Stream Into Lucid)
I am getting ready to play miniature golf with my brother, but am having a difficult time finding a club that is comfortable to hold onto as all of the clubs I have tried have these large black handles with these large finger grips on them that are facing the wrong direction. I finally find a club that has a white handle with much small finger grips on it, that I am able to turn around to fit my fingers.

After finding a club we go to the first hole. I am wondering at first if we are at the right hole, but then see a sign a 1 on it. The first hole is fairly easy as it takes us both about 3 shots to get our ball in the hole.

The second hole has some walls that we have to bank our balls off of which makes it more difficult, and takes us each six shots to sink our balls in this hole.

The third whole we come to is just plain rediculous as there is about 6 inches of water that we have to hit our ball through in order to get to the hole which is underwater.

My brother goes first, and it takes him several tries to get his ball in the hole. When I get to the start of the hole, which is a concrete slab with small holes in it where the balls are set on, my ball disappears just before I get ready to hit it. As I look closer, there is a crack in the concrete where it appears my ball has fallen down into. I then see this one hole which appears to go down into this basement area, which appears to be a storage place for the miniature golf place. I take these concrete stairs that I find in this large hole down into this basement area. After looking all around this basement I find where they keep their spare balls, so grab a handful of balls and put in my left pocket. I hurry back up the stairs before someone sees me down there.

After getting back up on the golf course, some guy who works for the golf course comes up the same stairs that I just came up. I am concerned that he may have seen me down in the basement, but he gets on a bicycle and takes off to deliver something.

I take one of the balls I had gotten from the basement down on the concrete slab to try hitting it, but again the ball disappears before I get a chance to hit it. At this point I am getting very frustrated. I find some clay, and form a giant ball out of this clay, as I figure it will be too large to slip through the concrete. I hit the clay, and make a really good shot with it, banking it off a wall just where I had planned to hit it. The water where it lands is about 10 foot deep though, so I swim down and get it and bring it back up and set it on a ledge that I find.

When I hit my clay ball off of the ledge it breaks into 3 or 4 different pieces. One of the pieces is still large enough to hit though, so I go to get it. There are several holes where I can hit my ball into, but they are all about 3 or 4 feet underneath the water. I finally manage to get my ball to go into one of the holes. I hear several people complaining about this hole saying that it is just too difficult.

LW - Become lucid, then try to WILD within the dream
I find this bed and lay down to attempt a WILD. I seem to fall asleep after which I find myself standing on a street corner waiting to go across the street.

BH - Go into a black hole.
I find myself in a hallway going toward some metal doors which appear to go into a parking garage, only instead of a parking garage it turns out to be a big black hole. As I go into this place there is absolutely nothing there, no sounds, no sights...nothing, just emptiness. Very boring to say the least.

SE - See the energy of a DC or an inanimate object
I walk down the stairs to my basement where my washer and dryer are at. When I turn on my washing machine I am able to see a glow around it, only it is somewhat of a gray color that extends about a foot our from it in all directions. I then turn my electric dryer I can see a glow around it also, only its color is an orange/yellow color that extends about 1 1/2 feet around it.

ND - Focus on an object and notice the details
I am now looking at my cat, only my cat looks like a mouse as she has these funny looking ears and eyes. I decide to look at something different, so look at something else, which is also really distorted, but I am unable to remember what it was I was looking at now.

Later, I once again attempt to focus on an object, so pick up my sweat pants and look closely at them before putting them on. While trying to put them on, my cat comes over and jumps on them and starts playing with them.

Later still, I am in a room looking at these pictures. While I am looking at one of the pictures, the picture suddenly comes alive, and I find myself at a place that looks exactly like the picture did that I was looking at. I am standing outside looking at these tall buildings that I was looking at in the picture, as it seems like I have entered the picture.

DC - Dance on the ceiling, with a partner
After a couple of failed attempts at this task, I find myself in my basement with the wife. I tell her, Let's go up to the ceiling and dance. We are able to get up to the ceiling alright, but we start floating down from the ceiling before we get a chance to dance. This happens two or three times. Finally, I imagine us both wearing lead shoes, after which we stick to the ceiling and are able to dance, although we are dancing quite slow, because of our shoes are so heavy.

PF - Give physical form to something abstract, like an idea or an emotion
I am at gym where I work at where I see a guy I usually talk to. When he mentions my name it comes out of his mouth like a caption in a cartoon book. I say his name and notice that his name is also a caption coming out of my mouth. The captions look so funny that I start laughing, which makes an even funnier looking caption, as it goes in and out with my laughter.

TM - Go through a mirror
I am looking all over for a mirror to go through, and first go through a glass wall of this large building as it looks like a mirror from the outside. Although it was an interesting feeling of being sucked inside the building as I went through it, I continue looking for a better mirror to go through. I find a truck that has a large mirror extended out the side of it, which mirror is about 10 feet tall and 15 feet wide. It is one of those mirrors that distorts a persons image as it makes me look about 2 feet tall and real fat. I decide that this mirror will do just fine. As I go through this mirror, I am able to go about 2 or 3 feet to the other side of the mirror, but I am still in the mirror while I am on the other side of it, as the mirror has stretched out to hold me inside of it.

PI - Play a musical instrument (if you don't know how to IRL)
I am playing a harmonica which I find that I am really good at. I first play the song I've been working on the railroad, and then start playing a more festive song, a gospel song I remember called Joy, Joy, Joy. As I start playing Joy, Joy, Joy, I am suddenly in this large dance hall where all these people start doing the polka to the music I am playing. I am having so much fun playing this harmonica that I get real fancy and start adding a lot of extra notes to the music.

BO - Swim to the bottom of the ocean
I find an ocean that I am planning to swim to the bottom of, but I am having a difficult time even walking out into the ocean because the waves coming in are so high. I decide to float above the waves to get out in the ocean, but no matter how high I float, the waves come just as high as I do. I finally decide to take control of the situation, so repeat a verse I remembered from the Bible that says "Peace, be still". The waves seem a bit upset with me when I tell them this, but begin to subside, and are finally totally still.

At this point, I find myself standing out in the middle of the ocean on top of the water, so I dive down into the ocean. On the way down, I am amazed at how deep I am breathing with no air tank. I also notice a lot of salt in the water as I am going down, although I am able to see perfectly clear in it without my eyes burning. When I get to the bottom, it is only about 20 feet deep, and the only thing I see are plants growing on the bottom of the ocean. A bit unhappy with my depth, I continue swimming until I find a large drop off which I am able to swim down to a much deeper level.

When I come up to the top, there is a boat waiting to pick me up. After getting into the boat, I realize that there was another guy with me, who never came up. I become concerned about him when I realize that he had no oxygen tank so may be running out of breath. I am thinking about going back down and checking on him when I wake up.

Me - Being A Dragon
I am a huge dragon and feel myself very high in the air looking down on a city that seems to be New York. I am at the same height as several apartment buildings, but notice some office buildings in the distance that are taller than I am. I am able to look inside people apartment windows because of my height, so am looking for some hot chicks. (Man did I blow this lucid...all week long I've been imagining myself being a dragon and blowing fire out my mouth, and I allowed myself to become so involved at looking into people's apartment windows that I forgot to blow fire out of my mouth.)

Way Up In The Air - Looking down / Train Running Through Me
I am way up high, what seems to be about 50 stories high, looking down on a construction site below. I am then standing in the middle of what first seems to be a road and there is large truck coming right at me. As I stand there, the truck goes right through me, and just keeps coming, as it seems to now be several trucks. I then realize that I in standing in front of a train that is going through me.

Road - Driving Down (Image Stream Extended Into Lucid)
I am driving down a road in my car when I come up behind a car that is driving really slow. After passing him, I have to quickly get back over into the right lane because there are several trucks in the road ahead of us that appear to be cutting trees down. While coming back over into the right lane, I am having trouble seeing out my back window as it appears to be fogged up. I am finally able to see the car a good distance behind me so come back over into the right lane. I can now see the trucks ahead of us clearer, and see a truck with a lift putting something into a dump truck. I have to duck down with my car in order to get under the dump truck when I get to it.

SG - Ski down a grassy slope, then ski back up again (10/28/08)
I find myself walking through what looks like a ski resort. Ahead of me and to the right, there are several doors that appear to go out to long grassy slopes on the other side of them. As I get ready to ski down one of the slopes, I suddenly find myself in the garage of a mechanic who works on my cars. A door opens to a much smaller grassy slope that I had been looking at earlier. I find myself wearing a long pair of skis, so ski down the hill. Once at the bottom of the hill, I hold a small motor behind me to assist me in skiing back up the hill.

ST - Stop time (11/4/08)
I find myself in the wife's bedroom in front of a large entertainment center that is slowly falling toward me. As I had just been thinking about completing the lucid task of stopping time, I extend my arms toward the entertainment center and stop time, which keeps the entertainment center from falling any further.

A few seconds later the entertainment center starts falling again, so I again extend my arms toward it, and once again stop time, which keep the entertainment center from falling any further. I end up stopping time and the fall of the entertainment center five times, after which the entertainment center is laying on the ground.

RS - Remember something from IRL (11/5/08)
I am in the locker room of my gym at work getting ready to go out jogging when I realize that it is cold outside so that I should wear a sweatshirt when I go. I remember that I have a sweatshirt in a cabinet in my office, so think about going up to get it. Since I realize that I am dreaming though, I decide to just manifest the sweatshirt to where I am at, so concentrate on the thought that I am already wearing my sweatshirt, after which I wake up.

Road - Standing Next To
I am standing next to this road that is right off of a main road where I used to live over 20 years ago, and where cars are driving by rather fast. I am wanting to cross this road, but am concerned about the cars coming down the other road, as some of them are turning onto the road that I am wanting to cross, that could run over me if I was in the road. When I realize that I am dreaming, I go ahead and walk out into the middle of the road and just stand there and allow the cars to pass through me.

FS - Use all five senses (11/9/08)
I have just moved into this apartment that is on the second floor and that I have to climb up this ladder to get into. About the third time I climb up this ladder <touch> I begin to realize that I am dreaming, and wonder if I could just float up into my apartment, but I have too little control to float yet, so just sort of jump up while pulling myself up to help getting up into my apartment.

I become aware that everything I do in my apartment can be heard by people in the other apartments, as I am able to hear everything they are doing <hearing>. When people walk into their room, or when they go into their kitchen, and turn on the water or open a cabinet, I can hear everything they are doing.

Although I am aware that my neighbors are able to hear everything I am doing, I open several cabinets to look inside to see what is in them <sight>, and check them out, and then walk into another section of my apartment that is rarely used to check it out.

Several people are suddenly in my apartment with me and have some kind of food with them which is like candy. The candy is in the form of a large blob of sugary dough, that I make a couple of rolls out of using my hands <touch>. As it smells really good <smell>, I take a bite of it. It tastes so good <taste> that I eat a large helping of it.

3V - Have 360 degree vision (11/9/08)
I am in this apartment where I seem to be living with several other people and where I am aware that I am dreaming. When I decide to try floating, I find that I am able to float. I float all around the apartment while laying on my back. While floating around the apartment, I discover that I am able to see in all directions, as I am able to see above me, below me, ahead of me, behind me, and to the right and left of me.

SC - Split your consciousness into more than one part (11/9/08)
While floating around through an apartment I seem to be living in, I decide to split my consciousness, so send another copy of my consciousness into outer space.

SC - Split your consciousness into two or more parts, with perspective from each part (11/9/08)
After splitting my consciousness into two parts and sending one part of my consciousness flying through space, I remain aware of both the part of me that is floating through the apartment I am in, and the part of me that is flying through space. I remain aware of both parts of my consciousness until I eventually lose track of the part of me floating through the apartment, and become totally engrossed in the part of me flying through space. While flying through space I continue to experience the 360 degree vision, although I am going so fast that everywhere I look is just a blur.

EC - Enter cyberspace (11/9/08)
I decide to enter cyberspace, so float into my computer, after which I feel myself being something like an electrical current going back and forth between different places. As I feel a person sitting at a computer I am in switch to a different website, I feel myself flowing to the other website like an electrical current.

BF - Breathe fire (11/9/08)
While feeling myself being an electrical current while in cyberspace I decide to attempt the lucid task of breathing fire. As I concentrate on this task I feel myself shooting a small burst of flames about 3 inches long out of a plug-in on a wall. (Not exactly the way I had envisioned completing this task )

BS - Build a snowman and bring it to life (11/9/08)
As I concentrate on the lucid task of building a snowman and bringing it to life, I find myself outside in about a foot of snow. As I attempt to build a snowman out of the snow, the snow just turns to water in my hands. I concentrate on making the snow colder so that it will stay together, after which I am able to start building a snowman with it.

After putting a snowball together for the base, I put a smaller snowball on top of this one for his midsection, and an even smaller one on top of this one for his head. After putting a couple of raisins on his head for his eyes and something like a pumpkin seed for his nose, a mouth automatically forms on my snowman with a large smile on it. My snowman has come to life all by himself and smiling and laughing, as he appears to be very happy. I put a pumpkin seed on each side of him for arms, only they are very long pumpkin seeds that look more like branches. As soon as I put his arms on, he is moving his arms back and forth while he continues smiling at me. He stays in one place just moving his arms and smiling at me.

SS - Swim in the snow (11/9/08)
I decide to complete the lucid task of swimming in the snow, so lay down in the snow in front of me that is about 12 inches deep and begin swimming in it. I find it very easy to swim in the snow as the snow appears more like water while I am laying down in it.

IF - Go ice fishing (11/9/08)
When I remember that I wanted to go ice fishing, I find myself out on this frozen lake. Only the ice starts breaking and I have to run to shore to keep from falling into the lake. I concentrate on finding some more solid ice to go out on and find a lake where the ice is much thicker. I am still concerned that the ice might break on me though until I realize that I am a spirit, so am weightless. After realizing this I drop my line down into a hole in the ice. The first thing I catch is a giant lobster. Wanting to catch a fish, I lay the lobster to the side and continue fishing. The next thing I catch is a giant shark that is so large that he won't fit through the hole in the ice. I carefully stick my hand in his mouth and after a bit of work, get the hook out, and release him back into the water.

GG: Grow a garden by planting some seeds and making them grow before your eyes (11/9/08)
I plant some seeds in a long narrow flower pot in some potting soil and prepare to watch them grow. As I wait expecting some flowers to grow, a giant pumpkin instead shows up that is so large that it takes up the entire flower pot. I realize that this is way too large for this flower pot, and that I am going to have to replant this outside.

SD - Go Skinny Dipping with at least one other person (11/9/08)
I am a teenager in this lucid, and am with a nice young lady. We drive out in the country where we find this deserted pond, and remove our clothes and get into the water together. I am behind my friend with my arms around her as we move around in the water together.

MS - Make S'mores. This includes making a fire, roasting the marshmallow, assembling the S'more, and eating it (11/9/08)
I am a young boy in this lucid, and am camping out with some other boys my age and our scout leader. Our scout leader has a new treat he wants us to try, and the name of it is Smores. While heating my marshmellows I accidentally catch them on fire. It still tastes good though when I put it on my graham crackers and lay a hershey bar on top of it. (This was actually a recalled event of something that happened over 40 years ago, when I first heard about smores).

MD - Visit A Dreamsites Dreamscape (Attempt) (11/11/08)
I attempt to visit a dreamsites dreamscape, but the place I end up at is someplace very high up in this narrow glass building in a place that seems to be make believe. I try it again, and once again end up in the same high narrow glass building. I try a third time, and again end up very high up in this narrow glass building. When I look in this mirror the third time, I see something written in the mirror that says "Hi grandma!"

Walgreens - Seeing Through Walls
As I concentrate on seeing beyond where I am usually able to see, I find that I am able to see through walls. I float outside of the Walgreens that I have just been in during an image stream and find that I can see through the walls and see what is going inside the store.
When a guy I used to work with comes to mind, I concentrate on him and am able to see him miles away in his house getting ready for work.

Gal - Trying To Throw A Ball Past Me
I am in a gym where this gal is trying to throw this ball about the size of a volleyball past me. I am able to jump real high and intercept the ball, and am also able to stretch my arms out real far to keep the ball from getting past me. As she continues trying to throw the ball past me I become something like an octopus with long arms coming out all over my body. I walk toward the gal and surround her with my long arms, and then hug her and pat her on the back.

Kitchen - Bananas
I am in my kitchen where I have a couple of bananas that I notice are really ripe and have the pealing half way off of them. I decide to use them when I get up and make my fruit drink in the morning, but I accidentally drop one of them on the floor where it splatters. Since I realize I am dreaming, I choose to ignore the mess and use my imagination to clean it up.

BK: Fly a kite, and become the kite (11/15/08)
I am flying a kite in my backyard, after which I float up and become the kite. After becoming the kite, I am turning circles in a counter clockwise direction while I move to the right. After going a long ways to the right, I then start flying sideways back and forth in a long sweeping movement from left to right. I take a long dive down toward the ground, and swoop back up before hitting the ground. I am playing in the wind like a bird, allowing myself to fall toward the ground until the wind catches me and hurls me back up into the air again. I feel my texture being rattled back and forth by the wind as it blows against me, and now feel the string that is attached to me that is keeping me from flying away. If only I had no string attached to me, I could take off and fly freely in the wind.

LS - Cause lightning to strike you (11/15/08)
I am on top of this high hill where I stab this large metal object into the ground. I push the object down into the ground as far as I can until only the top part of it which is a circular piece remains above the ground. When it begins to lighning, I lay down on the top of this piece of metal that I have driven into the ground expecting to be hit. When the lightning strikes me, it vibrates throughout my entire body. Instead of feeling energized like I had hoped to feel, I feel drained and disoriented when I get up, not something I wish to try again.

Nightmare - Being A Part Of, Then Taking Control Of (Warning - Violent Content)
I am in a room with this guy and his girlfriend, who are being controlled by this evil man, who is getting ready to force this guy to do something by threatening to give his girlfriend a shot in one of her fingers if he doesn't cooperate. He has secured her hand in some sort of device, and is threatening to give her a shot if the guy doesn't do what he has asked him to do.

Since I realize that I am dreaming, and have no desire to watch this scene, I decide to leave the room. I then get another idea. Since I am aware that I am dreaming and that this guy could not hurt me, I offer to allow him to stick the needle in my finger if he will let the girl go free. He accepts my offer, releases the girl, and then secures my hand in the device.

He then stabs my finger as hard as he can with this giant needle, pushing the needle as far through my finger as it will go. I feel absolutely no pain, and there is no blood, although the thought of what he is doing to my finger is grossing me out. I decide at this point that I have had enough of this bastard, so punch him with me free hand as hard as I can, several times in the chest. I punch him so hard that I literally drive my fist right through his chest. Interestingly enough, I actually feel like I am hitting him, instead of just hitting air, and feel that I have hurt him. I get the guy and the gal, and leave this place.

GV - Go into a volcano (11/16/08)
I am on a grassy plain on the top of a mountain that I see this black smoke coming out of. There are all of these vegetables laying around on the ground that I am bending over and picking up, bell peppers, celery, carrots, tomatoes, etc. When I start to get up, I feel something hitting my back. After picking up the vegetables, I throw them into the volcano as a peace offering. The volcano then quiets down and I am able to walk down into it.

Gas Station - Filling My Truck Up With Gas
I have taken my pickup truck to this gas station which is right across the street from where I live (IRL, there is no gas station across the street from me, and I own no pickup truck). After filling my truck up with gas, I realize that I have forgotten my billfold, so decide to jog home to get my wallet. When I tell the attendant that I have forgotten my wallet so am going to jog home to get it, and then point out to him where I live, he tells me that he is so busy that he would not have even known that I had left.

I run across the street to get my wallet, and when I get to my house, my door is unlocked because I had forgotten to lock the door. When I get my wallet, there are two copies of a credit card I never use in my wallet, but the credit card I always use it missing. Knowing that I am dreaming, I decide to just imagine that the credit card I normally use is in my wallet and hope that it is in there when I get back to the gas station. When I get ready to leave and lock my door, the lock on my door is different, as it is skeleton key lock. As I just happen to have a skeleton key in my pocket, I use it to lock the door.

When I get back to the gas station to pay for my gas I notice that the credit card I normally use is now in my wallet, but the amount on the gas pump shows something $113, which is way more gas that I had gotten. I am thinking that someone must have come along and filled up with gas while I was gone getting my wallet. Still aware that I am dreaming, I use my imagination to change the amount on the pump to only $16, which is the amount I had pumped. I then go and pay for my gas using my credit card.

ST - Spin in a tornado (11/16/08)
I am out in the country on this dirt road when I see a tornado headed my way. When the tornado gets to me I allow it to take me with it. As I move along with the tornado I am spinning slowing around in a giant circle, sort of like a carnival ride, only much slower and smoother. As we go along we are looking around trying to find a place to hit down. In one place I notice what looks like a farm house on a large piece of land. We pass this place though and head back up. I then seem to be on a giant roulette wheel spinning around, which when the wheel stops, that is where we will go down at.

LB: Turn yourself into a leaf blower (11/23/08) Lucid
I am outside this old barn where I find that I am a leaf blower. The door to the barn opens and this old guy who looks like a zombie walks out and picks me up and takes me inside this dusty old barn. He pulls something like a chain to start me up, and then uses me to blow dust out of the old barn, as there is dust on everything. A while later the place is no longer a dusty old barn, as it is now a country dance hall with nice varnished wood inside, where people come to go square dancing.

RL: Replace the leaves back on the trees (11/23/08) Lucid
I am somewhere out in the country where it seems to be fall because all of the leaves have fallen off of the trees, and the ground is dusty. The place looks deserted as I appear to be the only one here. I notice a wind beginning to pick up, and it occurs to me that this is the wind of change. With the wind comes green leaves which are suddenly back on all of the trees, and the ground is no longer dusty, as there is grass everywhere. The place is now a beautiful picnic area in a park, and there are people there having a picnic. While I am watching these people having their picnic, a helicopter comes flying through the place really low to the ground.

CL: Look at the leaves and change them from green to brown, yellow and red (11/23/08) Lucid .
It is later now, and I am once again back in the same park where I had been in an earlier lucid, only it is getting cold outside now, and all of the leaves on the trees are changing colors, from green, to yellow, to red, and then brown. As I continue observing this place the scene changes and I notice a light off in the distance, which appears to be a boat coming toward the shore. I am thinking it is a fairy boat, but it turns out to be a cruise ship. I notice a nice sandy beach that the ship comes up to dock at, and then notice some people out on the beach having a party using a campfire they have built to stay warm. Later, the beach is deserted, as it is now too cold for anyone to come here. I feel sad that this once beautiful beach is now deserted.

WT - Walk a tight-rope (11/23/08) Lucid
While reviewing a previous dream in my mind where I was on a high platform, I find myself on the same high platform again, only this time there is a tight-rope wire going from the platform I am on to another platform on the other side of the arena. As I remember this being a lucid task of the month I decide to attempt walking across the wire. At first I have trouble staying on the wire because my shoes are too slippery, so I get back on the platform. There are then all of these paint scrapers with their handles sticking out on the tight-rope wire. There must be at least a hundred of them. As I am thinking it would be just as dangerous to try walking across these paint scrapers, I change the scene to get rid of all of the paint scrapers, and then imagine myself being an experienced tight-rope walker. I am now able to walk across the wire with no problem. In fact I run across it, and then start coming back across it walking backward. When I get fancy and do a flip in the air, the tight-rope wire bows with me when I come back down on it, and shoots me right back up in the air again. I do two or three more flips before heading back to my platform.

Gutter - Looking At (Lucid)
I am out in my backyard looking at my gutter when I notice that half of it is gone, as it has somehow just disappeared. I am taking a couple of nails out that hold the gutter up so that I can replace the gutter with a new gutter. (Good idea, I think I'll replace that narrow gutter next week which a much larger gutter).

HC - Make hot chocolate and drink it (11/23/08) Lucid
I am standing outside this lodge in a remote area when I decide I would like to make it snow inside. As I have no success making it snow when I get inside the lodge, I decide to make some hot chocolate instead. A pot belly stove instantly appears in front of me, so I put a pot of water on the stove. When the pot starts whistling, I take the water off, pour it into a glass, add some Swiss Miss to it and drink it.

SI - Make it snow or make icicles inside (11/23/08) Lucid
I am still wanting to make it snow inside, so ask my subconscious for help. Suddenly, instead of being in the lodge, I am in something like a large freezer area. I notice frost on the walls and on the door as it is really cold in this place. It now begins snowing, although none of it is sticking to the floor. I notice a park bench in front of me that is frozen solid.

FS - Fly somewhere warm if you live in a cold climate (11/23/08) Lucid)
I decide to fly somewhere warm to complete the next lucid task, so take off flying. As I am flying through the air, I can feel the temperature changing and becoming warmer. When I arrive at my destination, I am in the parking lot of a place where there is a large lodge in the near distance. It is a beautiful summer day and there are leaves everywhere on the trees.

MD - Visit A Dream sites Dream scape (11/23/08) Lucid
As I am exploring the last lucid further, I realize that I am in a Dream site's dream scape. I see the large tree and notice that I am in a large forest area that is a magical, mystical place. As I explore the further, I come to a creek that is running real fast, almost like a river, except that it is narrow like a creek. There is then a tall stone mountain in front of me with all kinds of faces carved into it which appear to be faces of Indians. I notice a cave on the side of the mountain.

While observing the mountain, I notice people walking around outside, only they appear to be spirits and not real people. I see several Indian women carrying papooses around on their backs. When I notice a rock road I begin following it. It takes me out of the forest and into a mist where I disappear.

SN - Witness a super nova (11/23/08) Lucid
It is a clear night outside and I am looking up in the sky at the stars when I notice what looks like a fireworks display way up in the sky. I see what looks like thousands of lights going being shot out in all directions. The lights look like star dust because there are so many of them, and they are so small. I notice some other people outside with me also watching the display in the sky.

Observatory - Standing Outside (Lucid)
I am standing outside what appears to be an observatory when I feel myself being picked up and put into what I am thinking is a giant telescope. I then realize that this is no telescope at all, but is instead an anti-missile device that is used to shoot down missiles with, and that I happen to be the missile that they are planning to fire at the next missile to shoot it down. I feel myself being shot out of this long canon toward a target. I am going through the air so fast that I can feel a breeze going by me, and can hear a whistling sound as I fly though the air. When I hit my target it blows up.

HC: Become a Halloween character, such as a ghost, and scare people or make them give you candy (11/23/08) Lucid
I am outside in this dark area looking at what I first think is a Christmas decoration of a small castle. As I continue looking at it though, it grows larger and larger so that it is now quite tall. I realize at this point that my subconscious is attempting to help me complete another task, that of becoming a Halloween character and scaring someone out of their candy.

I am a ghost and I see a bunch of really small kids, something like 2 or 3 years old, walking down this sidewalk, all dressed up in their little costumes. All I do is say "Boo" after which they all turn around and start running and screaming back up the sidewalk, dropping all of their candy on the sidewalk. (You just had to be there.) There are tootsie rolls laying all over the sidewalk now, so I help myself to a few of them.

(I was thinking about skipping this one, until my subconscious presented the ideal situation for this to me this morning, then how could I resist).

BB: Build a coccoon around yourself and emerge as a butterfly (11/23/08) Lucid
I find myself hanging in a cocoon on a tree. It is a beautiful summer day outside and as the sun hits me I feel my cocoon begin to open, but it opens just a little ways. It becomes night and I am still in my cocoon. At the break of day, I manage to get out of my cocoon, and begin exploring this new world. I am very clumsy in my flying, and because of the mist on everything, my little feet slip on everything I land on. The sun then comes out which seems to give me some energy which makes it easier for me to fly. As everything is now dry, I am now able to land on things without sliding off of them as before. I am a large white butterfly with pink markings I fly over to this butterfly pavilion as the zoo where I join my friends and where I can be safe all year long.

Bedroom - Trash All Over The Floor (Lucid)
I come into my bedroom where I notice my cat has been quite busy, as my trash can is tipped over and there are shreds of paper all over the floor that she got out of the trash can and shredded. Realizing that this is an image stream, I create a whirlwind that goes through my room and cleans everything up and puts the paper back into my waste basket.

Bedroom - Spirit (Lucid)
I am still in my bedroom, where I become aware of a spirit in my room. As he seems to be friendly, I am thinking he could be something like a spirit guide, so I ask him what his name is. He tells me his name is Jade. (Whoa! I wonder if this could be the same Jade that I met in a lucid a while back in what seemed like another time dimension).

Bedroom - Tight-Rope Wire (Lucid)
I am in my bedroom, only there is a tight-rope wire going across the top of my bedroom. I am thinking about walking across this wire, but need to have my own shoes to do this. There are 5 pairs of shoes laying on the floor, but none of them are mine, so I am looking for my own shoes. I finally put on a pair of magic shoes and start dancing across the wire, doing all kind of fancy dance steps across the wire, until I get half way across the wire where I slip and fall flat on the ground.

Van - Crooked Window (Lucid)
I am in the back seat of a van trying to roll up the window, but the window is crooked, and won't roll up. Realizing that this is another image stream, I imagine the window rolled up after which it is fixed.

Cereal - Floating In The Air (Lucid)
I am getting ready to go someplace like a soccer game with a group of people when I grab a box of cereal to take with me to eat. On the top of the cereal box it says 100F. As the box is closed I decide to open it. Realizing at this point that this is a dream, I decide to have a little fun with the cereal, so instead of eating it, I allow the cereal to float out of the box into the air where it forms some neat designs in the air.

Long Tunnel - Driving Through (Lucid)
I enter this tunnel that seems to be a tourist attraction in my van not knowing what to expect. The tunnel is somewhat narrow, and goes around and around all the up to the top of this tall building. There is no place to turn around in this tunnel, so I have to keep driving forward. Although most of the turns are quite narrow I am somehow able to make it around them in my van without hitting the wall. I am wishing I had never entered this tunnel, but have no choice now but to keep going since there is no way to turn around.

Finally, I get to the top of the building I am in, and the tunnel starts heading down. The thought occurs to me that this is really dangerous place to be in the middle of the night since someone could try to hijack someone's car in the place like this. I roll up all of my windows and lock my doors just to be on the safe side. After locking my door, it comes back open, and I have to slam it shut a couple of times to get it closed. I then notice that my window is open again, so I roll it back up.

Three guys are now walking toward me my van who appear to be mean. I am thinking about stepping on the gas and just running them over. The first guy, who is wearing a colorful shirt, calls me brother, and holds out his hand to shake hands with me, I distrust him though, so refuse to shake his hand. He tells me that because I have refused to be friends with them that they are going to come over to my house after me later.

One of the other guys who looks like a huge oriental bouncer, grabs me and picks me up in the air with only one hand. (How he got into my locked van I have no idea). While he is holding me in air, I suddenly become aware that I am dreaming, and realize that I can defeat this guy if I use my mind. So I grab this huge bastard with my right hand and throw him about 100 feet through the air. I am getting ready to run over the other two guys with my van when I wake up.

Basement - Arcade Machines (Image Stream To Lucid)
I seem to be a rich dude in this image stream, and have just made a large donation to the Navy, or possibly the Naval Academy. In return for my donation, the Navy has agreed to provide free medical and dental coverage for myself, the wife, and our kids for several years. Next thing I know, I am floating though this basement area where there are several pinball machines in one section, and several other types of arcade machines in the other areas. I continue floating around observing the different arcade machines in this basement area. (I am thinking that my donation may have been used to set up this arcade area for these servicemen).

Football - Playing (Image Steam To Lucid)
I am playing football with a team and I am the quarterback. We are on the 20 yard line wanting to score a touch down. I take the snap, fake a hand off to a big guy who is the fullback, and then follow him through the line all the way to the end zone untouched. I am amazed at how fast I was able to run, and how easy it was to score.

VS - See outside the visible spectrum (Image Stream To Lucid, 11/29/08)
I am outside this three story hotel with some friends when my friends leave and go inside one of the rooms, and I lose track of which room they go into. While floating around the parking lot, I notice a couple of rooms that have their doors open and have their lights on inside, but sense that my friends are in neither of these room. Since I am aware that I am dreaming, I decide to take control of this dream and just imagine that I am in the room where my friends are. When I begin to imagine this I acquire something like infra-red vision, and am able to see this infra-red light glowing in one of the rooms on the third floor of the hotel. I instantly know that this is the room that my friends are in, so float up to the room and join them.

VB: Get bit by a vampire, then bite somebody else (Image Stream To Lucid, 11/29/08)
I am what appears to be a large cruise ship, going down this long luxurious escalator to the main lobby of the ship. As I concentrate on the lucid task of being bit by a vampire, and then biting someone else, I find myself standing outside all alone at night, on a side balcony of the ship. A dark haired lady, who I only sense, but never see, comes up behind me and bites me on the neck. The only thing I feel is her closeness to me, but I know that I have been bitten. When I go looking for someone to bite myself, I find myself outside in broad daylight on another deck of the ship where this attractive blond lady is laying out on this lawn chair face down tanning herself. I walk over to her, gently lay down on top of her, and bite her on the neck. (Although attempting a task like this is totally against anything I would do in real life, I was able to accomplish this by just realizing that this was a dream, and that these characters were just a part of my imagination, instead of being real people or beings that appear to be in some of my dreams).

Advanced Challenge: Solar System - Mercury (Image Stream To Lucid, 11/29/08)
I find myself in the twilight area between sleep and wake again, so concentrate on the lucid task of flying to Mercury. As I concentrate on flying to Mercury I am suddenly walking around the Kennedy Space Center, where I see several rockets, one of which says Mercury on it. Assuming that this rocket is going to Mercury, I merge myself with this rocket. I feel a rumbling below me as the rocket takes off, and then feel like I am in something like a twilight zone or a void, drifting aimlessly through space. After drifting through space for a while I decide that maybe it is time for me to help out with this, so begin concentrating on going to Mercury again. After passing a couple of planets to the side, I feel myself landing on what appears to be Mercury. It is somewhat difficult to see outside because there is this fog or vapor everywhere. I see what looks like people or else some kind of creatures walking around with what looks like space suits on, but it is much to cloudy to see what they are doing. They seem to be taking a journey somewhere as there is a large group of them walking along very slowly together. Although I remember seeing some other things in the distance I have forgotten what they were when I wake up.

Set Of Keys - Holding (Image Stream To Lucid)
I am holding a set of keys in my hand, one of which looks like a key to my safe, and the other three which look like keys to my golf cart. I am thinking I should put these keys away before I misplace them but then realize that this is an image stream, so that there is no need to do anything with the keys.

Cabin - Visiting The Parents (Lucid - DILD)
I am staying in this cabin in a remote area where I am visiting my deceased parents for a few days. A brother that none of us like had been there the weekend before, but did not return this week. My younger brother is there with his wife, and there are several other people staying there also. We are all sleeping in the living room and there are ten of us altogether. Although I have enough room to stretch out on the couch I am on, I am feeling a bit crowded by this old man who is sleeping at the foot of my couch. He keeps doing these exercises with his legs, something like leg lifts.

I am thinking that I will be glad when some of these people leave to go back home. I wake up at about 4:30AM, and decide to go ahead and get up since I am having a difficult time going back to sleep. When I get up, my dad gets up also, so I talk to him for a while.

In the middle of the day I am talking to my dad again when I suddenly realize that I am dreaming because of my parents being here. I ask my dad if anyone he comes into contact with during the day ever fail to see him since he has passed over to the other side now. I tell him that he is real to me because I believe that he is there, but am wondering if other people can see him. He gets this puzzled look on his face and goes outside. When someone like a mailman walks up, he walks right through my dad without even noticing him. My dad comes back inside and says "I see what you mean about people not knowing I am here". I am thinking that because he lives in this remote area, that no one has ever noticed this about him before. Although I am aware that my parents have passed to the other side, it seems like this is a place that they have created for themselves to live in, which I was fortunate enough to be able to visit.

Omelet - Fixing (Image Stream To Lucid - Warning (Sexual Content)
I am fixing an omelet on my stove with eggs, onions, bell peppers, and tomatoes when I realize this is another image stream. I decide to have some fun with image stream, so take the omelet and lay it on this gorgeous naked ladies body that just happens to show up, and begin eating if off of her body. I become aware that I am drooling all over her body while I am eating this omelet, but decide that this is OK since I am planning to have sex with her anyway. Before I get finished eating the omelet though, the scene changes and we are someplace like a night club dancing. The lady turns out to be a very erotic dancer.

Truck Stop - Stopping At (Lucid - DILD)
I am traveling somewhere by myself when I stop at this truck stop that sits below and to the side of this busy freeway. As I get out of my car in the parking lot, I can hear the cars driving by on the freeway up above. Although this place seems so real that I am thinking there is no way this could be a dream, something about this place seems unusual, which causes me to question my dream state. I try floating and find that I am able to float, although I have very little control of my movements. I now know that I am dreaming, although I have no control over where I am floating to.

I become aware of my body laying in bed where my astral body is turning around and around in a counter-clockwise motion within my body. I think about it for a moment because I want to make sure I remember which way I am spinning. Sure enough, I am spinning counter-clockwise within my body. I concentrate on spinning faster, and am able to increase speed at which I am spinning, but I am unable to get out of my body. After what seems like several minutes of spinning, I finally give up, as my body seems unwilling to let me out.
