Well, you woke up after remembering the task, it is annoying when that happens. And... you got a perfect score for translating it without even noticing?

Lol, no, the thing I was supposed to be translating was already written in Spanish.
On another note... My goodness, I'm way behind on updating this thing. Meh, I'll do it tomorrow. =P
Always put off til tomorrow what could be done today!!
Or... wait... was that the other way around...?

Dream 1
Poseidon had built a machine which allowed him to create and modify other creatures. He announced the creation of this new machine on TV by using an image of dinner plates. Then he demonstrated himself making a missile which he could control with his mind, but he crashed it into a wall. He made another one and had it fly around over a pool, this time doing a better job of controlling it.
Scene change. I was watching TV with my friend. We had cable, but none of the shows seemed interesting. Apparently my dad had promised to get me pets, but instead I ended up with a field filled with plastic animal sculptures. There was also something about disabled kids.
Fragment 1
I got more oatmeal than I could eat, but I didn't want to be wasteful so I had to eat it all. Then I rode in a car with my friend's family.
Fragment 2
I had an overhead view of a white canvas (like on a computer screen). I was in control of a vector pen, and there was a little person running around on the canvas. I circled her with the pen, which made her explode. :D

I did a hand RC, but it didn't work. I did a nose RC just in case, and found that I could breathe even when my nose was plugged. Rather than becoming lucid, I was very confused by this. There was a random DC standing next to me, so I asked her if this was a dream. She just stared ahead blankly and didn't respond to me. I was so sure that I wasn't dreaming for some reason. I didn't understand why the nose RC had failed me... It had never been wrong before! *facepalm*
5/23-24/10
The world was ending and we were running out of oxygen. I transferred to a different school (not sure how it relates, but that's what it says in my DJ). I was trying to figure out how we could survive, but then I realized that it was impossible and instead focused on what dying would be like. I determined that once all the oxygen was gone, we would all just fall asleep painlessly because there would still be air for us to breathe, even though it wouldn't have any oxygen. This was a bit worrying though, because then I had no way of knowing when the suffocation was starting.
Then some guy tried to steal all our video games. I went to a shop and bought a smoothie. The person making the smoothie showed me her house and told me how much it cost. She was bragging about how expensive it was. After that my brother and I went to buy a baby pig, wanting to do something nice for our mom since the world was ending and all. Each one cost $140, and they looked thoroughly unappetizing. Before giving us the pig, the guy there had to prepare it, so he cut off the pig's butt (which looked remarkably similar to a human butt) off in slabs. Then the pig guy showed us his house and bragged about how expensive it was. Apparently he was competing with the smoothie lady.
Pig guy told us (my older brother had been replaced with my little brother, and my dad had joined us) that his house had a secret passage to the bottom floor. While he talked with my dad, my little brother and I went off to find this passage. I found a trap door in a closet and saw that it went to a whole secret area, which was filled with a bunch of assorted junk (probably a fair number of collectibles too). One of the things I found was an Indian head with long hair, half of which was dyed bright green. Pig guy came down and started playing music.
Somehow I ended up outside, where pig guy and smoothie lady were having a color war. Pig guy used magic to paint his legs green and blue. To counter this, smoothie lady used her own magic to paint purple and yellow bands on her arms.
5/24-25/10
My dad got mad at me because I'd sided with my mom in an argument. There was a computer nearby. On its desktop I saw a file that had the Google Chrome image but had "Axel" and some nonsense as its title. My dad accusingly asked me what it was; I told him truthfully that I didn't know. We opened the file and saw that it was a letter. I didn't read it, but I noticed that the first sentence was written in all caps. Then my dad started getting on my case about giving out personal information online. I assumed that he suspected "that Axel guy" (not actually something my dad said in the dream, but how I imagined he would have referred to Axel) was some sort of stalker and who knows what information I would give him [Axel] if he [my dad] didn't step in to stop me. He threatened to slap me, and my older brother also turned on me. "Fine then, do it," I challenged them, planning on taking the hit(s), slapping them back, and then running away.
In the end they didn't hit me, but I did run. I met up with my friend and my neighbor and started talking with them, trying to act casual. I remembered that the school year was almost over, and was excited to go to college and get away from my parents. Then I remembered that I still had all of Senior year to get through.
Hahaha, cool dreams. The last dream is pretty funny :lol:. I've completely forgotten to update my DJ ;_;
Will do first thing tomorrow =)
Sounds like the planet that went to sleep in Serenity? Alliance scientists released a chemical into the air in order to make the population peaceful, but everyone just gave up and stopped moving, eating, breathing... except for the ones that didn't.Quote:
I determined that once all the oxygen was gone, we would all just fall asleep painlessly because there would still be air for us to breathe, even though it wouldn't have any oxygen.
I've never seen Serenity, but I've heard Firefly is good.
Pokemon + Fantasy game items = pretty cool
I was at an office, and I had to fill out a paper with my physics teacher's information. The paper was covered up though, so I couldn't see what I was writing. I tried to trace over what I'd written, but of course I couldn't go over the lines perfectly and ended up with an illegible mess. I waited for my teacher to come so that she could fill out the stuff I didn't know. There was something about world maps (like the kind in Pokemon).
Then I was playing a Pokemon game. It was sort of like the gameboy games, but there were some differences, like new Pokemon (Eeveelutions specifically). There were also different items you could equip, each of which did something different with rather random conditions. One of the items I had was a healing item, but how much it healed depended on the altitude you were at. Each of the items had its own type, and may have functioned differently if the Pokemon it was equipped to was of the same type. As I scrolled through the menu, I saw that I had 7 pairs of dark-typed boots. A little avatar of them popped up. They looked pretty cool, so I equipped them on all of my Pokemon.
While I was thinking about avatars, I thought about changing my avatar on DV. I got the idea of changing my display name to confuse people. I was going to temporarily switch it to Vanilla Twilight, but then I realized that a username change would be permanent.
I remembered a couple of other dreams when I woke up in the middle of the night too... I was going to write them down, but next thing I knew I was waking up again. >.>
Umm?
I did a reality check and determined that I was definitely awake. I'm still trying to figure out whether that was a dream, or I actually woke up and reality checked.
Fragment
I was at my house, stuffing a stuffed zebra. Then I fought with someone over rulers and had to switch classes. That's what was written in my DJ, anyway. While writing it, I remember wondering whether I would be able to understand my notes later.
Happens to me all the time =)Quote:

LOL, I think this A LOT, especially if it's in the middle of the night :)Quote:
While writing it, I remember wondering whether I would be able to understand my notes later.
And the answer is usually, "WTF was I on?" when I read it again in the morning :)
Same here.Quote:
While writing it, I remember wondering whether I would be able to understand my notes later.
Another night where I woke up and recalled several dreams, but only had the discipline to write down one of them (once I had to get up anyway)
I had joined my school's robotics team. We were on a stage, but at the same time it was a car/bus. I started playing a game where you were a penguin standing on a rolling boulder. The screen scrolled up, and you had to try to jump higher than all of the other people. Here and there were various platforms/objects one could stand on. I stopped playing and was still on the bus. We were about to drop off my friend, but then I realized that we were several hours away from our school. I asked her how she got to school every day, which led to a rather long conversation.
I was at a funeral. Pretty much all of the guests were black, except me and my dad, but the ceremony seemed to be Indian (not to be confused with Native American). Everyone was dressed in Indian clothes and there were several people at the front of the room standing on some sort of altar with incense. The people on the altar were singing traditional Indian songs (according to the dream, anyway). At first the songs just sounded like a bunch of random blather; the people didn't seem to be singing along with the background music. However, I then realized that, while most of it was improv, there were some notes/tunes that were required and brought it all together. I thought that it was really cool.
One of the singers dropped her mic. Thinking that the ceremony was over, my dad picked up the mic and started giving a speech about the guy who had died. They weren't done with the song though, so he pretty much looked like an idiot and I was quite embarrassed.
I don't know about those penguins... :shakehead:Quote:
I started playing a game where you were a penguin standing on a rolling boulder.
lol everything out of place in that last dream, it seems.
I was in outer space. I guess I was travelling between planets, but then part of the planet I was on crystallized, which meant that I had to run away... I also spoke to someone in Spanish.
Then I was in physics class. There was a guy trying to murder one of my classmates, so the class worked together to protect him.
Meh, I need to get more sleep.
Travelling through planets, sounds pretty epic, too bad you don't remember more, or couldn't sleep more. Look at the good side, classes are ending soon, right?
I do remember it being epic, I just couldn't remember much.
Hallelujah to classes ending!
1:15am
I was really thirsty, but all of the cups were covered in dirty oatmeal leftovers, so I couldn't get a drink. Usually plain water isn't that appealing to me, but in this dream it sounded amazing.
I was riding in a car driving down the freeway at night. We were driving the opposite way of traffic (although we were on the right side), but we were forming our own union/club/system or whatever, so that meant we were allowed to make new driving rules on the spot. We had one lane on the freeway designated for driving the other way, only we kept switching which lane it was. I'm not sure how the other cars on the road heard about the rule changes, since we hadn't said them out loud, but they did know.
Up ahead was a group of people in cars talking to a police guy, discussing the law. We pulled up to them and stopped. For pretty much the entire dream, I'd known that it wasn't real, although I hadn't quite figured out it was a dream until just then. The dream skipped, and we were sitting in a circle, still talking with the police officer. Everything seemed slightly blurry, so I decided to go with the dream for a while.
"Sir, do you know that this is a dream?" I asked the police officer. (In hindsight, this isn't exactly going with the dream plot.)
"Yes."
The dream was still unstable. I asked the first question that came to mind. "Do you know this is a dream?"
"I already told you yes, Erin."
For some reason I was very surprised that he knew my name. "How do you know my name?" I asked. Halfway through his response, I woke up.
I tried to DEILD and got a bit of HH, but I didn't get back into a dream. I was worried about falling back asleep and forgetting the dream. I think this is the first time I've ever recalled a dream from my first REM period, much less a lucid one.
8:27am
I was on a field trip to an arcade. I wanted to play one of the games, but it was already taken, so instead I watched someone else play a different game, which had horrible graphics.
Maybe a scene change, maybe a different dream. We're having some sort of convention in my mom's room, and one of the DCs is famous. Of course, I'd never heard of him, so while all the other people were going crazy and begging for autographs, I was acting normal.
It turned into someone's birthday party, and we were going on a camping trip. Earlier in the dream, I'd squished two bugs in my shoe. It was great that I didn't have to worry about the bugs anymore, except that now I didn't want to put on my shoes. I had to park my car, but, being the daughter of a god (Zeus?), I had super strength and rather than driving my car into the spot, I just carried it to its spot. Pretty much everyone else had super strength too, and they were parking their cars in the same manner. All of the cars were really thin; just barely wide enough for a person to fit in.
Then there was chocolate cake, but when I went to eat a piece it crumbled apart and disappeared. I did get some cake in the end. I remember thinking that it was tasty as I went to eat it, but I don't remember the actual taste.
10:23am
I was on DV. Next to me, Mario (Mario92) was on another computer. He excitedly started showing me a new feature on DV, where you could navigate the site using only a pencil (the computer screens were touch screens) and without having to go to any new pages. Tapping on a board made it expand into a list of threads, which you could then scroll through. Tapping one of the threads replaced the thread list with the posts in that thread. It was pretty cool. I enjoyed scrolling on the touch screen. I looked at the list of things that had to be done for the next update and say that both Mario and Serenity were halfway through writing complicated-looking codes. Huh, I didn't know Serenity could code, I thought.
Then Alex (taking the form of my graphic design teacher) walked over and started explaining that people would be able to draw directly onto the forum--anywhere they wanted--in the art section. I had the brilliant idea of making it so that people could use this feature to make their own themes. That way everyone would have tons of themes to choose from. (When I woke up, I realized how many hideous skins we would end up with using this plan.) I was torn between being amazed that Alex was actually my graphic design teacher and wondering how he'd known who I was on DV.
Pwnage anyone?
I was in Spanish class. We were doing a project where you made a game, but so far I'd done all the work. In fact, my group members hadn't even shown up for the past couple of classes. The class ended, and while I was walking to my next class someone I hadn't talked to in years randomly started walking with me and chatting. I thought this was a bit strange, but I wouldn't have minded being friends again. We stopped at our Spanish class, and I was like, "uhh, I just came from this class." What did I have after Spanish? Oh right, math. I started walking to the math buildings, now accompanied by a different person I never talk to.
When we got to my math class, I realized that she was going to cut her next class, but I decided not to do anything because I was already going to be late. I went into my class and saw that there was only my teacher and a couple other adults. I must have gone to the wrong class. I went back outside and asked what period it was. The person I was with earlier said that it was C period, which was Spanish, but I'd just come from Spanish. I realized that it was Monday. Was it possible that I'd gone to the wrong first two classes and neither of my teachers had noticed? My Spanish teacher could be a bit unobservant, but I didn't think my B period teacher would also not notice. This sort of thing usually only happens in dreams, I thought.
Instead of going to my Spanish class, I went to the library (which was in the wrong spot). Inside I saw that we had a creepy, middle-aged, hadn't-shaved-in-a-couple-days male sub. He challenged me to try to attack him. I'm not sure exactly where I became lucid, but I remember trying to do a hand RC and then thinking, "screw it, I already know that this is a dream." I started hitting him, but my hits didn't do anything but make him laugh. I kneed him, barely missing his crotch. He fell to the floor, but he was laughing as he said, "hey now, no punching, that's not nice; but you can give me a BJ."
I knew that my goal was to find Axel, but first this guy had to pay. Besides, I wanted to go with the dream plot because I'd heard it was good for keeping the dream stable. So you see, in the name of stability I had to beat him up. He was still on the ground, so I started kicking him and stomping on his ugly, whiskery neck. He got up and started fighting back.
I switched to third person and started completely owning him, Matrix style, complete with super speed and running up walls and everything. I pulled him up a wall with me and continued to "fight" (in a very loose sense of the word; "pummel" might be more fitting here) him. At one point I had a little mental conversation with myself that went something like this:
"Am I losing lucidity?"
"...Err, no. Duh."
And thus the pummeling continued.
I started wondering whether I could switch back to first person. Third person kicked him away from the wall, straight at the camera (for lack of a better word for my point of view). I grabbed him (1st person) and swung him around, then kicked him down at the ground. I watched my third person self fall with him, and realized that I was now in control of two people.
The camera jumped to a new spot, and I saw that the floor had been replaced with orange mist and a hole that went down who knows how far. I had third person continue to beat him up, but basic story-writing skills and roleplaying manners had taught me not to make myself invincible because it's boring, so I let him get in a punch and 3rd started falling. I wanted to switch back to first person and try to fight him, because this was no challenge, so I imagined myself in the place of 3rd, falling through the fog.
The dream destabilized, and I heard my cousin say that she'd saved me by teleporting me. I saw the edge of a brick wall briefly, but it disappeared. My cousin kept talking, so I opened my eyes, expecting to see her behind me. Too bad I didn't recognize that it was just HH and remember that eyes can move during REM.
I like how you imposed the no invincibility rule on yourself. :)
Lol, I guess it's a habit by now. ;)
heh, poor random DC, cool fight too.
Of course I can! :shadewink: *coughs* :DQuote:
Huh, I didn't know Serenity could code, I thought.
Kick-ass! I haven't done this, yet. Sounds like it would be awesome! (New goal!)Quote:

Well... maybe after you've done it once or twice, right? TBH, I've never been invincible, either.Quote:

You needed to call Chuck Norris and allow him to punch your DC with the fist of the size of a truck :lmao: :lol:
Catching up for the past few days...
5/31-6/1/10
I was IMing Jeff when nerve came in. Jeff ordered him to kill someone, and I was all "o.0"
Scene change. There was a disabled guy who was a plumber. He also did relay races, which confused me until I saw that it was a wheelchair relay race. The dream switched to 3rd and I participated in a relay race, controlling myself with a remote.
I don't actually remember this, but apparently I snuck into a house with someone else. We were trying to steal something. I also wrote down "mirror, seating arrangements."
6/1-2/10
No recall.
6/2-3/10
Dream
I was at a hospital. One of the patients was a 6'2" male, but his doctor had him lie about his height and gender. I think she was trying to cover up for something.
Outside of the hospital, there was a big screen TV hidden behind some bushes. This was where all the doctors went when they didn't want to do work.
Then I was walking home, and there were watermelons hanging down from the trees on the trails. There were also a bunch of gnats flying around. I went back to the hospital, where there was a fight.
Fragment
I'd done a Spanish project, but had to delay turning it in.
More catching up.
6/3-4/10
Dream 1
I was driving down a snowy freeway. It was night time, and to the side was a dark, ominous-looking forest. The freeway had some pretty crazy speed limits. At first it was 150mph, but a sign only a few meters later said 105, and the one after that said 145. I had a long line of cars driving after me. I turned off at a few exits, into the forest, but each time I realized right away that I was going the wrong way.
I finally got to where I was going, which was a little circular rink where we were having theater on ice practice. I didn't like the part I had. I'd said I wanted to be the angel from a particular movie (or play or something), but they'd interpreted that as "I want to be something similar to an angel." We all skated in circles really fast, trying to reach 150mph. I was worried about crashing.
Scene change: I was in a house. I had a little, one-person airplane. My enemy attached pieces of metal to it so that its flight would be more stable. I was slightly worried that he had attached them badly, so that once I got high enough the plane would malfunction and I'd go splat, but flying around was so much fun that I couldn't resist. I could only fly inside, though, and I wanted to fly outside.
Scene change. I was at my real house, in the kitchen. For some reason I decided to change into a different shirt, even though there were several people in the room. The only reason it was slightly awkward was because one of the people was a lesbian (which I'd forgotten), but I didn't feel nearly as embarrassed as I should have.
Then I was taking a shower (not in my house anymore), but there were two nozzles. One of them was normal and the other sprayed soapy water. The bathroom was voice activated. It rearranged the room based on what you said you want. I told it I wanted to pee, but it ignored me. Deciding to get revenge on it, I peed in the shower, which was quite fun.
The lower halves of my legs were fake, so I took them off. They got filled with water, and for some reason pulling them out of the water was really painful, even though they weren't even part of me (this made perfect sense in the dream, though).
New scene. My brother and I were waiting in a long line on an overpass. We wanted to get on the freeway.
Dream 2
I was in a (military?) camp. Two species, orcs and wingless fairies (both about human-sized), were standing right outside; each wanted something. They wanted to pass through our camp, but we were doubtful about letting them. In our defense, there were a lot of them, probably about the number of people in a city for each of the species. An orc representative said that they were from another dimension, and they wanted to stay here and develop battle ethics. Some of the fairies started to walk right through, but their leader used mind control to stop them. All the orcs started cheering about something.
New scene. I was in a town covered in snow at twilight. I was going to drive with my mom, but instead I ended up in the car with my dad. He didn't have his headlights on, nor had he turned on the special mode that keeps the car from slipping on snow. We slid off the road and down a hill. I was furious and started criticizing him. Rather than addressing what I was saying, he started getting on my case about being disrespectful. After a while I just told him, "I don't feel safe when you drive." He didn't really have anything to day to that.
I started climbing up the hill, which had become more like a giant boulder of ice. It's hard to describe, but in short it was really high up and scary. Oh, and I was wearing ice skates. My cousin L talked to me from the ground. She had her dog with her. I jumped down and my dad and I drove off. He stopped the car next to a tree with some screws in it. He unscrewed them, and the tree fell over, revealing a secret stash. My dad put a check and an important paper belonging to me in there. "What are you doing?" I asked. "He'll come back. He could take my stuff." My dad just said something about it being the other person's choice to make stash, and now it was his choice to put stuff in it. We argued about that for a while.
Scene change. I was in an arcade/boxing ring. In 3rd person, "I" (a little girl) was going to do a competition. I told my pet tiger (like in Calvin and Hobbes, but with superpowers) not to help me. He gave me a power-up anyway without me knowing.
Now we're back to last night. =P
Dream
I was at a ranch that did horseback riding lessons. There were a couple of people riding around in the ring. I decided to go to the stables to get Alex (a horse, not the one from DV) and join them, but I couldn't find her. When I went back to the ring, there was a big group. They were playing a game where each team had a different type of staff. To play, they lined up and smashed into each other. One of the people playing lamented that they couldn't skip ahead to any of the more interesting games. A list of the games popped up then. They were sorted into three levels. I remembered that W had done one of them before and it had been really intense. She'd played it in the forest nearby. I think it involved archery on horseback. My dad and brother were there. I talked with my aunt, who had an amazing giant smoothie. She was ruining it by putting chocolate syrup in it though.
Hm, scene changes, I don't get these, what are they like? Also, lol why don't I get cool messages from Jeff like that?
And horseback riding, interesting.
I think I just forget what happened in between. =P Sometimes the dream just skips, like I think about going somewhere and then the dream just cuts out the actual travelling (probably because I don't pay much attention to it when I'm awake).
;)Quote:
Also, lol why don't I get cool messages from Jeff like that?
And horseback riding, interesting.
I get dream jumps and scene skips a lot too. One theory is, the reason it "skips" is because we don't recall what happened to bridge the scenes.
...I should update this. I really should. Tomorrow. =P
Catching up. I'll start with the new DJ system tomorrow.
6/5-6/10
The scene kept switching between my house and some patio I'd never seen before. My friend and I were going to Disneyland, but my mom said that since it was $55/week, we couldn't stay long because it was too expensive. I thought that $55 was pretty cheap, but I got distracted when I remembered that the FAYZ (from the book Gone) meant I couldn't leave the area. I imagined myself getting smashed between the back of the car and the FAYZ wall. "What about the FAYZ?" I asked my friend, trying to remember whether I'd told her about it. She just shrugged, so I assumed that I had told her.
I was in front of my house, where a bunch of my friends who were affected by the FAYZ were living. Another friend (who was not part of the FAYZ) drove up and asked why there were so many people here. Not wanting to explain, I told her it was a slumber party. She seemed offended that she wasn't invited. I told her that I couldn't go to her BBQ a few days from then.
I was on the porch then. Somehow I got poison oak, only it was a lot worse than regular poison oak (it didn't look like anything, but it would kill you). No one wanted to help me because they didn't want to get hurt from it, but one of my friends (who was our healer) finally agreed to help and put me in the upstairs tub. I thought about how I hadn't taken a bath in this tub since I was a little kid. A girl walked in. The healer told her to get out because she wasn't allowed to see me naked. I thought it was odd that she was kicking the girl out even though she'd let one of my male friends stand in the corner the whole time, which should have been really awkward but wasn't.
I fell asleep. When I woke up I was half-dressed and sitting up. The healer gave me a towel, which I wrapped around myself. I was about to go to bed, but then I noticed that there was some stuff on my arm. The healer said that she hadn't gotten it all and quickly washed it off. I saw that part of her arm looked like it had been rubbed raw. I felt guilty because I knew that she'd gotten it from helping me.
6/6-7/10
I was at a zoo, but instead of just looking at the animals we got to go into the exhibits. We went in with the giraffes. There were these tiny baby ones, which were adorable. They sat at a table and I pet them. Some skunks ran by me. I wanted to pet them too, but I didn't want to chase after them in case they felt threatened and decided to spray me.
At the other end of the exhibit were some tanks, one of which had a deep-sea puffer fish. One of the employees of the zoo explained to me that the puffer fish (which had a light like an angler fish) needed both light and sound to be able to puff up.
Then I was in the tank, sinking down to the bottom of the ocean. It got very dark and silent. I got to the bottom, where there were rows and rows of sleeping bags. There was a kitchen nearby, where Mamá Elena was making cookies. I was going to ask if I could have one, but I couldn't remember how to pronounce "mamá." I went back to the sleeping bags. The guy in the sleeping bag next to me explained that Mamá Elena was evil and that she was keeping us all hostage and not feeding us. The cookies were just a trick. He told me about how he'd pretended to do a bunch of reality checks so that she would think he was starving to death and give him more food. So far he'd gotten a whole 27 extra Calories. I thought that this was quite brilliant and considered reality checking myself, but then I realized we had brownies! My little brother stole one from me.
I went a ways away to a trash can and found a dress. At first it was a really ugly poofy thing, but then it turned into a nice pink one. Nice clothes were rare on the bottom of the ocean, so I figured I could trade it with someone for food.
I went somewhere else, where there was ice skating. Some people were talking about how a certain brain disorder was like having the wrong brain for your body.
6/7-8/10
I can only really remember fragments...
I was at the beach. The water was quite intimidating, but I talked with my dad/brother about surfing on it. My mom sewed some clothes, and then I was wearing my gypsy Halloween costume.
I was in a forest. The leaves were all bright orange. It was very pretty. My mom talked to me about planting more trees. I looked around and decided that there were enough already. We camped in the forest.
I ran across a street, but could only get halfway, so I started running down the divider in the middle. I was worried about getting run over. I finally made it to the other side and turned a corner. A DC who was running with me grabbed my hand. His hand was very warm. "Your hand's cold," I said. He said something like "I know" and let go of my hand. At first I thought it might be my cousin, but when I looked at him I saw that it was just some random, slightly chubby blonde dude with thick glasses and a very rectangular face.
Okay, switching to the new DJ system.
<--- (click the link over there)
Just kidding, I'll be keeping this DJ. Actually I'll probably go ahead and keep both. Eventually I might switch over completely.
For the sake of completeness, I'm going to catch up on the entries posted in my other DJ.
Spoiler for Really long:
Back to last night's dreams. ^^
Broomstick Flying
A bunch of my classmates and I were travelling by broomstick. I waited in line for the bathroom, which turned out to be just a little plastic toilet seat with water in it. Then I went to look up a map, but I didn't end up using it. Instead I just traveled with my friend, who said she knew the way.
At some point I became lucid. I thought about going to Shibuya, but instead I was like, "ehh, screw it, this is fun" and kept flying around. I told myself I'd go to Shibuya later (and of course I didn't). There was something about my cousins too. This dream went on for quite a while, but I can't remember the specifics. I do remember tying balloons to my bed so that flying would be easier.
-----
Meeting the Gods
The first thing I remember is doing a RC. I had a FA, but I kept doing the nose RC, so I realized that I was actually still dreaming. unfortunately my eyes were closed, which is a recipe for disaster for me. I relaxed and tried to DEILD by pulling myself into my HH.
Eventually I made it into a dream, where I was spinning around in dark water. There were a bunch of glowing red bubbles around me. I surfaced and found myself in a cavern, where there was a line of gods and their animals. I talked to a few of them, asking about their powers and whatnot. One of them, which had a raven on his shoulder, said that his raven served as an extra brain for him.
yay you updated this one! I would go read your other journal, but I can't use it <.<
Anyway, yay FA lucid!
And lol the fun drove you away from goals?
Nice. In one of my dreams last week, the dream started to fade, that turned me lucid cuz real life does not fade. I knew I was not going to recover the dream so I concentrated to not move my eyes nor myself to DEILD. I felt my body in bed, a second later I felt SP and a second later, I was back in the same spot that I awoke from previous dream, fully lucid were I have met two major personal goals.
Gah, sorry about not updating. This was partly due to laziness and partly... okay, I guess it was all laziness. I did get my wisdom teeth out yesterday (and thus only 4.5 hours of sleep the night before), if that counts for anything. I was going to write down a dream last night, but then I fell asleep again.
There is always tomorrow! :D
I'm not sure where each of these dreams starts and ends, so this may end up being a fragment block more than individual dreams...
I don't know what to title this
I was in a forest at night, horseback riding with the crew. Apparently we were supposed to get our horses to use psi. I had no clue how to do that. While I was trying to wrap my mind around how to tell an animal to use psychic powers (which may or may not have existed), I accidentally cut the line, which made S get annoyed at me.
I ran home. Somehow I ended up with a lot of really crappy pictures of me on my way home. I had a mustache. For some reason both my house and the house next door were pink, and I almost went into the wrong one. I went to my room. At around 10:15, a doctor came in and told me to go to bed, but first he tried to fix the air conditioner and failed miserably. I wondered why I would ever need three air conditioners in my room, but didn't become lucid.
Instead of going to bed, I played music, then chased my little brother around the block. I went back to my room, and noticed that a chunk of my leg was missing. It was like someone had taken the back of a ski boot and kicked the back of my leg. It didn't hurt, but I freaked out because it was really ugly. I decided to go find the doctor and make him fix it.
I think this was where the next dream started
A couple of doctors had done an operation on a corpse. They decided to let me sew it back together, but I did it wrong. A third surgeon came in and took them out, which hurt until I thought, "wait a minute, that's just a corpse, there's no reason having stitches taken out of it should hurt me." The third surgeon looked very... odd. He had this rubbery suit with giant veins running through it. There were two patients who needed the same organ, but they couldn't decide who to give it to.
I was playing a board game with my little brother. We were outside, and it was dark and rainy. The game was either about Pokemon or Alvin and the chipmunks... Or maybe we were playing with the chipmunks.
"thinks of today as tomorrow" Yes pwease?
I can't use the new DJ system, too laggy for me, my old DJ is now deleted, since an archive isn't really appealing to me, moved it somewhere else.
Also, meant to ask if there was any update lol.
From one thing to another. ROFL.Quote:

For some reason I love morbid dreams with corpses and shit. Maybe that's just me?
I was on MSN for a few minutes but you weren't on! >: |
Lol... but I do that too.
That's problematic. ;/
>.> Yes.
I'm getting on now though, lol.
Poseidon
I was going down a scurbland/desert in a wagon filled with water. My friend W used her Poseidon super powers to make the water level go up and down. I rode the waves, pretending I could fly. Then I actually could fly, only I knew I was still just pretending. I flew along the road ahead of my cart until I reached the one in front of us. There were two different teams racing home, red and blue. I wondered whether the routes being taken were secret, because if they were we weren't being very inconspicuous. Noticing that the trail we were taking was clearly marked with red flags, I concluded that they weren't.
We ended up in an actual desert now. I had to be careful so that the aliens wouldn't eat me. There was this shack/building/stable that I went inside of. I think I talked with one of the aliens here, but he just looked like a person. The building, which from outside looked like a mysterious giant shed, turned out to be an old western public restroom. I looked down and saw that I was stepping on a wet spot near a hole in the floor. I really hope that's not what I think it is, I thought.
I went out of the stall. My friend S was getting ready to go swimming, and when I looked in the mirror I saw that I was also wearing a swim suit. We went back outside and kept travelling, but we had to be careful to void detection by the aliens.
I had a FA where I wrote down my dream before waking up for real.
One down.
This dream is kinda fragmented...
Escaping the evildoers
I was at an ice skating rink, setting up a new system for the end-of-year show. This involved a fair amount of sitting around in the lobby. On the rink there was a machine/ride like Firefall, which I knew would malfunction. Something about the Inception trailer.
Then my brother and I were cleaning out our rooms and packing for college. I picked a fight with him over the videos in our little brother's room, thinking he'd taken all the good ones. Turns out he only had a couple crappy ones. I took most of the ones left, including Rudolph and Cars.
I was back at the rink briefly before I somehow ended up trying to sneak past a giant evil ship/base guarded by those wizard dolls from Final Fantasy IX and these creatures that looked like Gollum. I was a robot that resembled R.O.B.. My accomplice looked like a cross between... You know what, screw the links. I'll be here all day at this rate. Anyway. She was a cross between Eve from Wall-E and Volbeat from Pokemon. We tried to swim underwater past the ship silently, but I accidentally made a sound and the alarm went off. The dolls attacked from above. I tried to shoot a laser beam at them but couldn't, and none of their magic was working either. I realized that the eclipse had come (like the one in Avatar: The Last Airbender), so we took the opportunity to get away and hide.
A couple of Gollums and a Gollum family had followed us, trying to escape their evil masters. My friends W and B were also there. W was our leader, and she went over the next day with us, when we would finish our escape. She advised us to drink coffee in the morning, because we would probably be too scared to get much sleep that night and she didn't want anyone falling asleep while we were running away. B was sick, so she just sat in a corner.
Then we were attacked, so we had to kill our dinosaur mount to escape. B slept through the whole thing and was thus left behind. We stopped at a shady trading post, where we tried to sell the dinosaur (which was alive, despite having been killed). "B" (actually a different person) caught up with us and started lecturing us about leaving people behind.
Fragment
My mouth rotted. I brushed my teeth like a crazy person, and it went away, but when I looked in the mirror my face was covered in green spots.
Yuck.
Picnic at school
I had joined a group. It was sort of like being vegetarian, only you weren't allowed to wear cotton. I was getting ready for school, but I was having issues finding cotton-free pants. Apparently I hadn't thought this through very well beforehand. I went to the bathroom and saw that Gracie was eating our of the litter box and pooing in the tub (which we had two of, for some reason). This was quite aggravating.
I went to school. B asked me why I was freaking out about the summer homework since we had all summer to do it. She bragged for a while about her amazing planning skills and how she wasn't freaking out because she knew exactly when she would do the homework. I told her that a month can go by really quickly, thinking of lucid dreaming. (I try to have at least 5 lucids per month, and often find myself near the end of the month with only a couple because up until then I'd thought I had plenty of time.) Apparently we needed a pass so we would be allowed to go to class, but I'd been absent the day before so I didn't have one. B asked me to go on a picnic with her family. I wondered why she wasn't going to class, but then figured she had a prep.
On the way to where we were going to have the picnic, I met up with a group of people who acted like they knew me and we were friends, but I'd never seen them before. They took my phone and walked off. I wondered if I would ever get it back, seeing as I didn't really know them. Then I saw that my friend A was with them, so at least I'd be able to track her down.
I went to a field, where B and her family were setting up for their picnic. We moved some chairs so they would be around a table and sat down.
Dolphins! (DEILD)
I decided to DEILD, and found myself back at the field where we'd been eating lunch, only now it was underwater. There was calm music playing. I was lying down on the grass, waiting until I was sure the dream was stable before I moved. A dolphin swam by and up to the surface. The dream looked like 3D video game graphics. Decent ones, but obviously fake. I think I briefly became a dolphin and swam to the surface before waking up.
Skiing on Pavement (DEILD)
I'd intended to go back to dolphin land, but instead I ended up on a ski slope with a road on one side and a city on the other. I was skiing uphill, so I turned around. Once again, it all looked animated. I looked at a dog running along the road, then stopped and looked down at the snow. When I looked back at the dog, it was like real life. I kept going. Someone said that this was Tokyo, and even though it looked nothing like Tokyo, I thought, Good, that means I'm already in Japan. Then I realized that I was just going to open a portal anyway, so it didn't matter where I was.
I was a series of swimming pools on my right, which looked epic. I jumped, using my skis to launch myself. It was awesome. I hovered at around tree level near the pools. There were several big, circular robot things in the water having a race and shooting at each other. I decided to ski past on the concrete. Although it was a restricted area, no one seemed to notice until they looked at the finish line pictures. "Wow, how did someone get up this high?" I heard one of them ask. "We should find this person!"
Idiots, I thought. Now what else was I going to do? Oh right, light sabers!!!
Just shoot the kids (DEILD)
I was lying down on the floor, looking out the window at some plants. Again, the visuals were crappy and music was playing. I didn't want to risk moving, but I could hear voices behind me. My POV turned around on its own, and I saw a mother pointing a cardboard gun at her daughter. The mother was threatening to shoot her daughter on the left. The daughter shouted "nooo!" and I wondered what was wrong with that mom until I realized that they were just kidding around.
Ah, amazing DEILD control, and lol @ "idiots" part.
Also, yay FF and inception dreams!
I don't know why, but this made me laugh. It's so cruel, in a very straight-forward kind of way. Hilarious.Quote:

I totally recognize this feeling of superiority in LDs. Hahaha.Quote:

Idiots, I thought.
Very cool dreams overall, I enjoyed reading them.
This is actually from two nights ago.
Series of Fragments 1
I was at a camp. I went to a lake, where there was a big wedding boat which caught on fire. I was the only one helping put it out, and all I had was a squirt bottle. My DJ says I almost ran out of time, so I guess I was being timed.
Then I was in a field. I couldn't find my horse, which made me sad because I missed him.
Next I was at a village where they were selling See's chocolate. I wandered around, but I was having issues focusing. I may have been close to lucidity here. I came to a building where an exclusive theater was performing a comedy. There was a long wait list for it, but my dad got us in. Outside there were some people dressed as clowns. I had a contact-putting-in race with someone, which I lost. I went into the theater and we gave someone a Flareon.
Callie (from Grey's Anatomy) was driving a helicopter upside down, trying to pick up one last person. The person jumped at the helicopter, which made it blow up. S and a random cat were blamed from the accident, but both were spared.
A little girl started screaming in the middle of a country road. She got hit by a bus, going through the windshield and landing in the back. Birk (also from Grey's Anatomy) started to treat her.
Series of Fragments 2
I was with my cousins. There were evil ants, so we had to be careful not to get splinters or they'd kill us.
My friend and I carried some things back to camp.
I almost got hit by some tennis balls.
I found an extra flip-flop, so now I had three of the same kind. They turned into boots.
Something about climbing stairs. Apparently I was a walking ad for ski boots.
I took a shower. There's something else written, but I can't read my handwriting.
Sorry, this is really boring. >.> Last night wasn't much more interesting, I'm afraid.
Fragment
I was at a camp site at night. I was bouncing on my big red yoga ball, seeing how high I could go. I flew a bit at one point and was close to becoming lucid.
You can just tell everyone they were exploding tennis balls.
And today I have... Another fragment! Woo!
Fragment
My family had gotten a new computer. I might have been telling Axel about it. I read a story on the internet about a mom who had saved her son's face by tinkering with a chair. I also had a new laptop, which I spilled some crumbs on. I decided to make a new website and delete my old one (I actually had a couple of these), saying that the new one would be body part-free. Then I saw that I had every unit of my Biology class neatly organized into pages about everything we learned. I didn't want to delete it because it was so much work.
*yawn* I should stop watching Grey's Anatomy before bed. Tonight will be more interesting, really.
You have a big red yoga ball? =O
Hm, biology class and ants is never boring! Now combine the two and you will have a nice dream experiment.
Can't say I'm looking forward to bio next year...
And yes, I got the ball when I was five and I've used it pretty much every day since then. My friend is quite proud of that birthday present. =P
I'm too lazy to update my DJ (and it's bedtime anyway), but I'll add last night's dreams tomorrow.
From two nights ago. Sorry it's rather fragmented... again.
By the Ocean
I was on a cliff near the ocean with my friend. We threw those little toy soldiers with parachutes over the edge, but mine failed. I had a device that could measure how strong the wind was; apparently it was really strong.
My mom was driving a car and I was sitting in the front seat. We almost crashed several times, but ended up just clipping a few cars. We talked about my friend's family and drugs that help you sleep and change your personality. My mom then asked me what I thought of our fake allowances and I was like, "they're definitely fake."
I think there was a bit at the end where I was participating in a study involving multitasking. I was supposed to drive and sleep at the same time, which for some strange reason was quite difficult. I was able to nod off, but I couldn't focus on my driving at the same time. Wow, multitasking really is hard, I thought.
At the Beach
I was at the beach with my brother, some cousins, and some of my friends. We were in a little cove, but instead of being protected every now and then multiple waves would come in at the same time and bounce off the walls, then add onto each other.
Then we were at a different beaches. There were three horses standing there with just their saddle pads on. My brother stood on one, supposedly riding how our father used to. There was a little girl on another horse, which ran off. Some people chased after it. I wanted to ride one of them and have it run, but I knew they wouldn't let me so I walked down the beach.
I came to a metal stairway that went down a waterfall (one with a fairly shallow slope and not a huge amount of water). I started walking down it, then decided it would be a good idea to slide down. The staircase turned into an epic water slide. My cousins followed me down it. I realized that one of my cousins was lacking clothes, which was a bit odd... Oh well. I started to climb back to the top to go down again, but then I woke up.
Last night's dreams wereboringinterestingdifferent. Unfortunately I was too lazy to write them down, so now I can only remember the main things that happened... but I don't think I'll post them. ;)
Tomorrow I'm going to start the Uberman schedule, so that means no dreams for a couple of days. Unless I fail miserably, of course. We'll see how it goes.
Damn, good luck, Erin. May the force be with you.
Definitely the best kind of multi-tasking there is.Quote:
I was supposed to drive and sleep at the same time, which for some strange reason was quite difficult.
In case anyone was wondering, no one is online at 5:30am in the middle of the summer. I wonder why that is.
Running with the wolves
It was dark, and I was next to a field of tall grass. Knowing there was a pack of wolves in there, I nervous, but I went in the grass anyway and started leading the pack. I had to keep moving and be careful so they wouldn't turn on me.
I dove out of the grass and into a tent in the nearby forest, where my fellow campers were staying. There was something in the forest that would have attacked us if we hadn't gotten in the tents soon enough.
Scene change. I was hiking through a desert-like area, and it was really bright. There were a whole bunch of nets and ladders between various pillars made of red stone. We started climbing, which was scary. The nets were triangle-shaped, so there wasn't much to hold onto at the top. Luckily my dad was able to help by pulling me up the rest of the way.
So I'm standing on this brownish, somewhat slippery/crumbly/sandy stone about 20 or 30 feet off the ground, when I notice there's a giant lava geyser right next to the pillar. First it sprayed up a stream of purple stuff, then it burst into flames. Despite the hot, intimidating stream of lava spouting up right next to me, I was most worried about falling off the edge and going splat.
Dang, why can't the dreams I'm having now be this intense? I found that old dream while going through my school stuff. One day I got really, really bored in Spanish class, and I happened to remember a dream, so I wrote it down on a random page. I'm surprised I can still remember the details of it as clearly as I do.
Well, the dream sounds awesome so its no wonder you still remember the details!
Well, I actually gave up on Uberman... about a week ago. I've just been too lazy to update my DJ since then. =x
I only lasted three nights on Uberman (which isn't too bad, considering I went directly from 12 hours of sleep to 2.5). At first it wasn't too bad at all--a few extra yawns here and there, but nothing I would call "zombification." Then I got to the part where you're actually sleep deprived and decided it wasn't worth it. I didn't have enough activities to fill a 21.5-hour day (I procrastinated on the stuff I did plan on getting done), which meant the night was mostly a long stretch of boringness. It was amazing how much I missed not having to think for 8+ hours daily. Life just seemed to stretch on and on and on, and I didn't know what to do with myself. I did enjoy being up right when the sun came up and going for a walk while everyone else was still asleep. I might try either Uberman or Everyman again, but not until I'm in college and only if I've gotten several new hobbies.
As for dreams since I stopped... Off the top of my head:
Last night I dreamed I IMed Axel while watching two scary movies, and he tricked me into clicking something that messed up my internet browser.
The night before I was pregnant with triplets. I had them over three days, one baby on each day. That was the plan, anyway; I only actually had the first one. It was sort of like having my wisdom teeth out: Before anything had happened I was like, "ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshI'mdying!!" and next thing I knew I was waking up and it was over. My mom took the liberty of naming my baby Amber or Amelia or something... some name I didn't like. I was irritated by that, but figured I had two other ones I could name. My mom then stored my baby in the computer along with a bunch of other baby files before letting me see her. At one point I freaked out, wondering how I was going to have a life as a 16-year-old mother (I'm 17). Up until then I'd been quite happy about being pregnant. I wasn't sure when I'd decided to have kids in the first place, or who the father was.
Hm, dream kids, a feeling I can relate to.
Wow, I haven't posted in a long time.
Super Mario Galaxy (again)
There were a bunch of little planets clustered together (like in Super Mario Galaxy). I jumped between them and eventually came to a larger planet with lava an platforms. I had to be careful not to move from the position I was in (the same position I'd fallen asleep in) so that I wouldn't break out of my trance.
This is like my 4th dream about SMG in the past two nights. >.>
What have you done to my horse??
I was floating over a preschool which had various Mario video games in floating boxes. I landed on the box for Super Mario Bros (for SNES) and beat most of the game using cheats.
I floated some more and came to a ranch-like place. Behind one of the buildings there were people selling jackets. I told my mom that I didn't want one, but then I saw that they had one that was the most beautiful periwinkle. The person selling the jackets explained to me that it was one of their two blue ones, called lilac.
I walked around to another building, where there were a couple of my cousins and some DCs I didn't know. There was a cord you could pull that made a chess board appear on the wall, which people could then walk on to control their pieces. Every now and then, though, a shock wave would go over the board, zapping everyone who didn't jump fast enough.
I went over to the open pipe we were using as a shower and wet my hair, then went back to the place near the chess board. A bunch of my friends had turned into cats made out of a bunch of little metal spheres.
We went over to where our horses were. There was a really, really short horse. At first I thought it was my horse, but I remembered him being taller. I found my horse a little ways off, but when I got closer I saw that he was super thin and the wrong color. I led him over to the other horses and (literally) jumped onto his back, but he collapsed before I'd even touched him. I pulled him up and got on a second time, and he tried to bite me. Something seemed weird... I was facing backwards, but his head was in front of me. If I turned around, he would keep biting me. Then it dawned on me--the saddle was on the wrong side of his neck! The people in charge started discussing which horse they could put me on instead of LJ.
"Umm... Can I get down?" I asked.
They were like, "uh, if you can."
So I jumped down from him, nearly getting squished twice, and got a safe distance from LJ. I wondered what had happened to him to make him so bony. He was like a skeleton. I decided not to try riding him again for awhile.
Heh, this sounds awesome ;)Quote:

Had some rather uninteresting fragments last night, so I won't bother posting them.
I'll be gone for the next two weeks, by the way. Hopefully I'll have some interesting/lucid dreams to post when I get back.
Bumping so this thread so it doesn't get purged.
Ah, thanks. I forgot about that.
Forgot to bump again. =/ I really should update this.
You really should. :D
Indeed you should.
Sorry, I'm a lazy child, and I think I've lost my addiction to DreamViews...
