My Dream Journal Selections

[Amoeba]

This thread isn't to be a complete dream journal, just a mere selection of dreams that I wish to share that I either don't mind sharing or that are interesting enough (I have some that are so uninteresting and I recalled so little, there is just no point in posting them). The first: 11.02.2010 Holding Her Hand (Non-lucid) Key: NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID My recall of this is very poor, and little of it made any sense. I had tried previously to fall into sleep paralysis, something I normally avoid. But my mind was in the setting for it, and I wanted to confront my residual fears about it. I was getting mind buzzes that were becoming more and more frequent until I did fall into the paralysis, but not long enough - I wanted to get the cover away from my face because the air was too stuffy and it was getting hard to breathe under the paralysis so I broke out of it, removed the cover from my face, and couldn't fall back into the sleep paralysis. The dream I eventually fell into some time later was one of those ones where you remember being in verious locations and experiencing different scenarios that are unfamiliar but in the dream were familiar, perhaps locations and scenarios from previous dreams but not from real life. I only remember the last bit. Something big was coming, something that was going to destroy some of us. There was a girl there who I had gotten to know in the dream but I don't actually remember how, all I remember was 'knowing' her. Her name was Forty-Five, and although she was right next to me I communicated with her by typing the numbers 4 and 5 on a keyboard at the back of a truck (I have no idea why). The scenery was stormy and apocalyptic, seemed like on a grassland near a city or something. I knew there was something there going to destroy some of us and nobody could do a thing about it. Forty-Five was so frightened I could feel her fear. I think she knew she was going to be one of the ones to perish. I went up to her and grabbed her hand and held it and with all my heart I tried to comfort her by lending her a bit of my feelings of security, passing them through to her. I saw she appreciated it but she was no less frightened, though she put on a convincing front that she was not. A little worry could be seen on her face, but that was all. After waking up, I remember everything in the dream that I had seen was enhanced in colour.

I also remember a dream that was somewhat similar to the level "The Cistern" in Tomb Raider 1: Except it had more of a clinical feel to it, like it was some strange laboratory or processing facility or something. But I don't remember enough to make a dream log about it, just enough to feel that we weren't supposed to be there but we had been taken there, and we were trying to escape but there were all these deadly traps that would make your stomach churn, many involving water, poisons, sewage and turning blades. I just remember feeling both grossed out (feeling sick) and terrified. When I say 'we' by the way, I just know there was someone else with me in the same situation but I don't know who she was. Here's a different fuller dream I remember from last night: 13.02.2010 The Fight in the Store (Non-lucid) Key: NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I don't remember the beginning of this dream, just the end. I was in a store and there was a huge fight between many people. I don't think it was all that serious (as most of us had blunt weapons and weren't really hitting one another that hard) but serious enough that people were angry. I was fighting this guy, I don't know what kind of weapon he had but mine was like a blunt stick I was using as a sword. I jabbed him in the stomach and drove it into him, but not enough to pierce him as I didn't want to try with such a blunt weapon, it would have made such a gory mess and I didn't really want to hurt him in such a nasty way. Just enough to force him backwards into some shevles. The store manager comes along and says "alright that's enough break it up!" looking kind of pissed off. I completely ignore him and keep going when everyone else looks ready to stop. Then I wake up.

Had another dream. My dream recall has been horrible lately, I'm glad I got as much as I did last night to write down. 18.02.2010 The Helecopter Without Propellors (Non-lucid) Key: NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I cannot remember much of what happened at the start of the dream. It had something to do with in and around (home) city except in some kind of alternate reality where some of the buildings and locations were different. The climate was a little different too. Maybe it was like a mixture between (home) and a city in another part of the world. There were lots of walls and arches. I remember travelling through it at night, but I don't remember what I did. I got back to (CODE-NAME A)'s house and left again with him, when we left it was day-time. We approached the canal just near his house and it looked different from how it looks today - the road crossing the canal to go up the hill to (a street) was actually a bridge that would be raised to allow bigger boats than barges to pass through - considering the canal is too narrow and shallow for anything bigger than that, it doesn't makes sense. I remember there was a set of steps on the metal framework of the mechanism to raise the bridge, but the steps could not be accessed from the ground as they started about two or three metres up. There was also a semi-spherical security camera attached. There was another security camera some way down the road. As I was standing there what sounded like a helicopter passed overhead. Thing is, it didn't look anything like a helicopter, it looked like some sort of strange futuristic air vehicle. It had what looked like jet engines at either side of it which were flexible at the point where they joined to the body and moved in a quick, fluid, organic way to maintain balance and position. Except they were not used for high-speed flight, rather they were used for hovering. The body of the vehicle was slightly rectangular except it was narrower at the top than it was at the bottom. It also had something that looked like a helicopter's tail except there were no propellors. It's exterior and way of moving looked like a design you'd see in games such as Half-Life 2. It was grey to white in colour. It circled the air over my head before coming to rest above me and I watched. It split itself up into three parts which raised further into the air before each of the three parts scattered across the sky in opposite directions, so fast that it took mere seconds to be out of range of vision. (CODE-NAME A) had gone to meet his mum so I went off looking for him to tell him about what I had just seen. I was side-tracked by the crowd that had gathered around the canal at one part that was fanced off for some reason. They were all staring at the swans - there were four adults in the enclosure. It was like a zoo attraction. I was very confused because they are wild birds, not captive. I didn't find (CODE-NAME A) anywhere. Then I woke up.
