Thread: Mr. Poe's DJ

February 27, 2009


I dreamed I was riding a motorcycle through crowded streets with an unknown girl. She was scared that we were going too fast but I just ignored her cautioning and laughed. We parked at a wooden building that was a restaurant of some kind and went inside. It reminded me of a bakery for some reason. I then saw a friend from real life, named H., in the restaurant. For some reason I asked him to save my place in line, then I went outside, got and the motorcycle, and started driving.

The next part I remember is being at my high school, which is located on a college campus. It seems like a new dream but in retrospect, I clearly remember thinking about how I needed to go pick up H. at that restaurant or he would be stuck there without a ride. I remember opening the door to our yearbook room, at the high school, and finding a bunch of students in there. For some reason this disturbed me as I found and told our yearbook editor, who showed up in my dream. Then I walked out in the hallway and saw a lot more students playing around. The next scene I remember is hard to describe, I was in the same place but there was plastic up everywhere. Like at construction zones. That clear plastic that is still kind of hard to see through. Anyway, people were trapped behind it, screaming, and hurting each other. It seemed like two groups were fighting. This scared me greatly and I then found myself out on the baseball field of the college campus. It had snowed and I walked out to the middle where a creature of some sort, that I created somehow, ran along side me back to the high school. I remember knowing that "Now that I have this creature with me, I'm safe from the monsters in the school."

The next part I remember was walking through the high school "courtyard" thing. It was broad daylight and it seemed like all the students that had been partying and fighting were standing around. There were photographers and news people everywhere so I tried to hide my face, thinking I would get in trouble if someone placed me at this scene. However, I remember a lady getting my picture. This freaked me out. Then the dream ended.

Well, this was my first WILD attempt. Sadly, my cat was in heat and I could not relax (she needs to be fixed ASAP). I set my alarm for 4:00 and fell asleep. When the alarm woke me I remembered this dream:

I was at school in Art Class and my teacher was hacking into the computer system to try and get students into trouble. Then I walked down the crowded hall while people were playfully grabbing me, singing a sing I hated in the dream but like in real life.

I found myself being ushered to a strange room (I guess in the school) and my younger sister was there. We started to act out a skit (it seemed it was broadcasting to the school live) that two people actually did in my waking life. I remember being worried they would be mad we stole their skit idea. Everything was going well until I forgot my lines and started to add-lib. My sister didn't seem to notice I had messed up. Then the dream ended.

I dreamed that my mom, for some reason in the dream my mom was someone different, wrote me a letter telling me to kill my dad! I thought about it then showed him the letter, refusing to do it. When she got home she wasn't angry I hadn't done it but she said she still would. I spent the rest of the dream tying to keep them "together".

I dreamed I was at my normal school and I went to get my hair checked (dress code). I went back to the offices and no one was there.

I dreamed I was at a school (not my normal one) and in one class I had to make a salad. I made the salad and also made a cool serving dish for it. It looked like a simplified clarinet-just the shape, painted silver with white dots for the "holes"-with a cool closing box that felt plastic-like and was painted blue attached on top for holding the salad. Then, while holding the container, I ran after two friends in real life, L. and A., who were going to a cafe on campus. I caught up with them and showed them my salad creation, they loved it too. Once we got the the cafe I gave it to two people I know in real life, J. and K., who looked at me weirdly. I then noticed an art teacher at my real school was working the cafe and some students were studying biology on a computer screens. Once of them, Li., a freshman, asked my to come look at a multiple choice question she thought was funny.

I was looking in a mirror and the skin on my chest and back was burnt and charred. I peeled it off casually, and without pain, to reveal normal skin beneath.

There was this dusty store place where this girl and I were talking about how we might lose the store this winter because we couldn't pay rent. I then picked up a money back and looked inside. Inside the small bag was a tiny little water drop shaped container, about the size of a tooth. It was pinned the the inside of the sack so it would be hidden. The girl with me in the store grabbed the sack from me and removed the thing from it. Once she opened the tiny container a small figurine fell out, this thing was tiny. The size of a Polly Pocket piece. She announced it was worth $100,000 and said our worries were over.

Then people started stopping by, looking for weird things. I remember some bug guy asking for something "masculine", so I gave him this rusty, twisted, and very sharp piece of metal- it almost looked like a work of art. He tried to walk off without paying so I yelled at him. He turned around and said he had payed and I believed him.

I went into an adjacent room, that looked like a storage place. I started rooted through things that are in my house in RL and the girl came and said to stay out of her stuff. I told her, "These are all things I have too, weird." I walked over to another table with old letters and swords on it, they were all very organized. But then she started running for the door which gave me a bad feeling so I chased after her. I went back to the main room and found the lights were off. I made my way out of the store, for some reason I knew it would be dangerous to stay there in the dark, and went to a hillside covered with ants and bugs. I stretched out my hands which produced a strong blast of heat, with an orange red glow about it, that killed the insects. Then I went down the hill, running fast, into a parking lot. When I was running, I had the chance to keep running through some tall grass but for some reason I turned around. I saw a group of 3 people sneaking about the lot so I followed them. One of them turned out to be the girl from the shop. She was able to stretch out her arms and blow strong winds from her hands. Then the dream ended.

The girl that ran shop with me has been in some other dreams with me too. I like her a lot, and am wondering if she could be the one. Dream guide that is. Most likely she is but a simple recurring character, but it makes you wonder. . .

I was driving in a big city and my mom and I were talking about all the company we were having over.

Then I was at my house (but it didn't look like my house) with the company. We had these two Korean dorm students over from the school.

I was suddenly at school, sitting with a good friend in RL, K. She was showing me some pictures of trees and grain bathed in warm sunlight. Then she went to show another teacher, I walked up behind who I thought was her and was about to hug her from behind when I realized it was another girl from my school, J. I remember thinking, "That would have been awkward to explain, K. doesn't even have red hair like J. does!"

Then, in the same auditorium we were rehearsing on stage for a musical we were doing. I don't remember what part I had but I remember everyone loved the play.

I dreamed I had to make a special book as an award for a race. My Dad commissioned it for a school. The objective of the race was to pass other drivers and be the first to pull into one of four marked parking spots on the track. My dad almost won, but someone cheated him out of his place in line. The book I made, for some reason was very special. I remember having to make it on a huge wall, with giant supplies then shrink it down to the right size for the book itself. The book was leather bound and you inserted the pages into a gold-plated 3 ring binder type thing on the inside.

I also remember driving into the country with a friend. I don't remember what we did but apparently it was a big deal. We then went back to the friends house and for some reason my friends parents looked like my grandparents. They said it was ok if my friend spent the night at my house and started to give me presents to take back to the company we apparently had at my house. We went inside to their house and I remember taking off my shoes at the coatrack, except they were fuzzy like open toe slippers, a dark brown color. Then, my friend's mom starts putting all these presents on the table where my sister (J) randomly appeared. She thinks the presents are for her and starts to open one, suddenly my friends mom tells her off. I realize the only seat left at the table is in-between someone I don't remember and my friend's mom. I really don't want to sit down but I have to. I wake up in bed sick with the flu. Blech.

March 9, 2009


I was at my high school, which is one of my dream signs, and as I was walking through the glass doors I though, "I think I'm dreaming. I am dreaming! Ok, what's the first thing I need to do? Reality check." Dawn kept saying "C'mon, hurry up!" which kinda broke my concentration.But I finally stuck my finger through my hand successfully, then plugged my nose and was still able to breathe.At this point I realized I had finally achieved what I had been working for, and then I got swept away by the realness of the dream! It felt just like real life and I think I became much less lucid once I started interacting with the dream characters. Anyway, I ran to my high school yearbook room, Anne, Emily, and I where there. People were running towards us and I closed the doors quickly, trying to block them out.

Dream changes, no more lucidity, we were fighting these people. We had these guns with different settings. You had to turn the knob to choose a setting on screen, then press the slippery, plastic trigger. We finally beat the enemy.

I return with strange dreams, and a vow to be more faithful in my journalism.

I was in a classroom and the teacher was asking us to prepare some
food. Mine was already done and she came over to grade it. She
thought it tasted good, and I clearly remember telling her that I
thought, "The raspberries really blend well with the coleslaw." She
told me that I must be exhausted . She carried around this small
typewriter thing to record grades with. It had a peachy tan color and
was roughly the size of my hand.



I remember putting on strange equipment then leaving a building to
walk outside. (Once outdoors, I don't remember having the equipment
any more.) There was a small group of people walking to an unknown
location. I saw a boy leave the group and I decided he must have a
shortcut, so I followed him. We crawled under a gap in some chain link
fence that was near some bushes and pavement.

These first two dreams occurred normally, in the night. The last one occurred while I was napping in the morning, after taking one Sudafed pill. My school dream sign popped up again, and I thought nothing of it... again.

July 29, 2009


I had a dog on a leash at the AC on campus and I remember
being told that I was suspended for receiving 30 demerits. The rest of
the dream was spent sneaking around, trying to hide from Dr. W and
another random man. I remember hiding behind some bushes while the man
was looking for me. I also remember my dad telling me I couldn't
attend some program because of the demerits. J. helped me hide in
the shower to avoid the people looking for me.



I remember going to someone's house whose children were happy to see
me. Once I went upstairs, I had the feeling that it was the house my
dad lived in when he was a kid. There was some amazing machine (about the size of my brother's old organ) made up of old gears and parts upstairs that caught my eye until I realized that a small, glass, cylindrical chamber on the top of the machine contained a small, yet fat, spider. I asked my dad about it but don't remember his reply.



There were three costumes that L. and E. and I had. Mine was a
Spiderman-like costume, E's was something centaur-like, and I can't remember L's for the life of me . Each costume came with a black controller with small round buttons on top and two small levers on the right side which would allow for playing a multi-player game with the costumes.
The levers had a hero and a villain setting which were the two teams
if one wanted to play the multi-player game. The round buttons activated
powers in my costume. {ex. One button let me jump very high, and if I held it
down I could float in place. Another button turned me invisible.} We
just played around with the powers each costume gave us. E., whose
costume gave super-strength, stayed on the trampoline (this dream took
place in my backyard.) While L., whose costume gave speed (although
she didn't use it till later) would try to chase me. I would turn
invisible {I could see myself fade slowly untill I was invisible from
behind, 3rd person view-esq} to avoid her but she would just rush
towards were I had been standing and somehow find me. It seemed like I
was moving slower than normal and she was able to move normal speed. I
was able to escape a couple of times by jumping high and hovering
there. I then went inside to my bedroom and took off my costume which
E. somehow got hold of. I now had E's costume and L. was starting to use the speed function of her costume. The belt of my new costume was stuck in my bedroom door so that the only way I could put it on to gain its power was to put it on with the door open. However, whenever I opened the door, Laura would zip on over to tag me and I would have to close and lock the door. Thus, I was never able to put my belt on. I remember someone warning me when Laura was coming, and I remember not locking the door all the way once, and having to struggle to close it and turn the lock.

Well, I had another school dream, and more specificly, another dream where I have forgotten to do homework. That's a horrible feeling, but a great relief when you wake up.

July 30, 2009


I remember being in a warehouse type room, with dim lighting, and chains and misc. items hung from the ceiling and strewn about. This room has the feel of a large, dank room on a ship. There is a metal ramp that leads up to a platform with multiple desks, and a chalkboard. I realize that I am in some math class and I have forgotten to do the homework. I notice the teacher has written the answers down on the board, presumably so the homework can be graded in class, and I start copying them down as fast as I can. However, class starts before I am finsished so I just give up. The teacher steps forward and I notice she looks vaugely like a creepy carnival clown, just without the drastic make up. She has an eerie grin on her face, and then the dream ended.



I dreamt I was at my job. Most of the surroundings were different, but in my dream I knew it was my job in RL. I was talking to a girl who works with me about how she used to live in Kentucky. After that, I tried to find all the things related to Kentucky and bring them to her. Another coworker turned into a younger boy I know, and we were racing for a box of something, untill he shoved me out of the way and grabbed it. I looked in a small room and saw a lady sitting in a chair. I started closing the door to spare her from the noise J. and I were making but she asked me to leave it open because she enjoyed hearing us play around. Later, I was walking among some shelves, and I noticed some yearbooks lying on tables. I looked for some I'd recognize, but couldn't find any farmiliar ones. After that, I went into a bigger room, and somehow ended up hitting J. in the neck with a rod with a hook on the end that exists in RL at my job.

It would be an understatement to say that I have been neglecting my DJ a little bit. But hey, I haven't stopped all together. I still record my dreams in my notebook, I just haven't uploaded them in ages. So with that, off we go!

PS. Starting now, since I am having more vivid/lucid dreams I will be color coding as follows:
Black= Nonlucid Purple= Lucid Italics= Commentary


August 2, 2009


I'm outside with some people walking around in my driveway and I see some things lying in the grass. They look like Lego pieces, each one bearing a vibrant color, framed by the lush green grass. I remember seeing yellow, blue, and an amazing, indescribable purple. I wanted to run inside to grab my camera and take a picture, but the group with me convinced me that we needed to go elsewhere. Because of this dream, purple became my favorite color.



My family and I were in a burning building that was, apparently, our house. We were making our way to the front door to escape, but I turned around to go grab some trinkets. We eventually escaped the building, and as we were driving away I asked whether anyone had brought my suitcase. No one had, which made me slightly miffed.

". . .the wizard and I!"


August 4, 2009


My mom and I were driving toward a huge city with very tall sky-scrapers. We were suddenly at in intersection in the city and two large balloon-float type things floated down the street. The giant Glinda and Elphaba went from left to right and inflated as they went. For some reason I accepted the fact that there must be people inside the floats controlling their movement. We were now inside a building, except A. was with me instead of my Mom. Some men were talking to her about L., who had scored highly on a test. However, his leg injury had kept him from a higher score.

Unannounced visits, playground obstacle courses, and a room of antiques. I love you random dreams!


August 5, 2009


I was staying at C.'s house, although it looked nothing like his real place. I remember going to bed, then waking up and going outside. Some of his dead dogs were there, and I remember petting Chang. Suddenly C. pulled up in a golf cart with dogs in all the seats. He offered me a ride but I said that I had to be going.


I was at a playground, and I went down a slide with the rolling tubes. Then, I was in a race with H. We started at the bottom, inside part of the playground. There was a rope made of tape rolls that lead to the top of the playground. Somehow, we both could climb the rope at the same time. We climbed the rope, slid down the slide, and climbed the rope again. Once we got to the top, we both touched a blue rope at the top, to end the race, which resulted in a tie.


I was now at my job (and as the trend goes, my job looked nothing like itself in RL) and I was adhering a vinyl decal to a filling cabinet near rows of computers. I overheard someone asking for a person's account information so they could log in. I tried the log in information on the computer I was at and, much to my surprise, it worked. It pulled up a grade report with my dad's name on it. I got worried that I would get in trouble for accessing someone else's account without permission so I walked away. Then I heard my brother, T., say to someone, "I may not have started that, but I'm still ahead of you!" Mr. L rolled his eyes at this, which made me angry, so I stormed past him and stomped around in general.


Now I was in a cool, dusty room full of antiques and cool looking things in general. They were marked with prices but I couldn't read the writing. Apparently, I was to be cleaning my room, but I wanted to stay and look at the stuff. I found an antique brass fob watch that somehow displayed the timezones of the world. After showing this to Rach. I think I packed a survival kit in a Ziplock bag for a trip to some snowy mountains.


I was now in my parents room, except it was on the ground floor and the view from the window was that of a nursery or farm. Two bunnies hopped into the walk-in closet while one hopped under the bed where I could see its eyes glowing. Another person and myself were hiding from people who I spied on from the window using binoculars. The people outside seemed to be constructing something.

The Adventures of Puncello and Picolo!


August 6, 2009


I was in a store, and I was looking at the merchandise, trying to find a book or a movie. The book/movie was called The Adventures of Puncello and Picolo. Apparently, Puncello and Picolo were two mice, and the store I was in was completely full of their merchandise. There were brown fuzzy notepads with mouse ears and a USB drive that had a tail and ears.

Some dreams are more abstract than others. . .

Spoon?

August 9, 2009


I was over at Chris's house, watching TV with his son, who was apparently having a party. C. walked up some stairs into the room we were in and we teased him about the show he was watching with his son. I asked L. how he was doing, and he said he had been sick. I sympathized.


I was driving down a dark rainy road and I saw a lot of people I knew driving about. I pointed them out to someone driving with me.


I was walking out of a building with J.. We were wearing similar clothes and he commented on our having similar tastes in style.

Secret agent man.


August 10, 2009


I was driving down a road at nighttime, trying to reach an unknown destination. We arrived at a Russian government building where they were experimenting with some evil technology. We tried to stop the experimentation but at that point, the "bad guys" showed up. Somehow, we foiled their evil agenda. Mr. L and I were then on the outside of the building near a pile of bright red bricks that were used in the construction of the building. The bricka were famous because of their association with the government building and we wanted to take a few as souvenirs. Mr. L. mentioned that if we took some, then everyone would want some so we hid three in the back of the van. Apparently, they were quite heavy.
