KHHs dream journal, a journal of selected dreams. Dreams might get deleted after a while, depending. Feel free to comment, but don't quote entire entries - keep it clean. Colors and style shamelessly borrowed from Ninja: Normal dreams are blue Lucid dreams are green Fragments are purple Nightmares are red Background info and comments are gray Everything else is black. First I'll outline the two lucid dreams I had before joining this site. They were the last time I was into lucid dreaming, back in 2007. I first heard about lucid dreams as a potiential name for some software for the game Dreamfall. I got curious and googled it. After that I decided to try and have one, and I succeeded. My recall of the dreams might be a bit shaky, as I didn't write it down then and there. I was trying the WILD technique I'd read about. I was in my bed, relaxing, while I repeated "What follows is a dream" to myself. This was as I went to bed for the night, and not WBTB. Suddenly, without warning or transition, I'm in a room. I take two steps forward and think to myself "Am I really dreaming?". Then I do the pinch nose RC, and I'm amazed that I can still breathe. The room had some sort of wooden panels on the walls, but I don't think there were any doors or windows. Then I start feeling the dream ending. One of the walls disappaired, and got replaced by a gray rectangle, like in an old 3D game. I try to spin, but somehow I get it confused, and decides to lay down on my back, while I'm telling myself "Det som følger er en drøm" (Which is the same mantra as before, only my mind had translated it for me. This surprised me, as I had wondered how to translate it while awake to no avail.) The dream changed into blackness, and I awoke the next morning without remembering any other dreams. The next lucid dream I had was an DILD. I was with two friends of mine in a truck of some sort. I think it was a firetruck. We were all siting in the font seats. We were trying to escape from someone, and there was a bit about potatoes. Later, I was outside of the truck and I couldn't find out where I was going. I was standing somewhere by the sea. So I decided it'd walk to a summer house of mine, never mind that it was nowhere near and on an island. I was going up a steep dirt-slope when I suddenly realized that it was a dream. I did an RC, presumably the nose one, and decided I wanted to fly. I tried standing still and lifting myself off the ground. However that brought me closer to waking, and I grew more and more aware of my body. I tried to spin to stabilize the dream. As I grew more aware of my real body, the dream was less and less real until I was lieing in my bed imagining someone spinning.

11 / 6 - 2006 I'm having a dream, in which I am a siyee-like creature (from Trudi Canavan's trilogy Age of the Five. The character I am is closely based on Tryss.) In the dream, some large creatures (Most likely based on a fantasy I read not long ago, called Acasia or something. The creatures were much like the Numrek.) are taking over my home place. The creatures were larger than the average man, and and they were quite beastly. There was also a female Siyee there, who I in the dream liked (most likely based on Drelli(?) from Age of the Five, the female Tryss likes). There was some sort of a competition that the large creatures arranged. But it wasn't the standard competition, it was to find out who were the fittest. The Numrek intended to kill off the weaker, to ...breed... the race stronger. In the dream I had good premises, and I was apparently both athletic and strong (which I'm not IRL, but the character from the book might be), and with good genes. But somehow the competition was only for partners. I think those without partners were killed out right. So I had to pretend to be married to the girl that I in the dream liked. I was flying in the competition (note: with wing-like structures, not superman flying) But then I deviated from the course I was supposed to take, perhaps because someone got ill. At least I showed my hand or something to someone, but in the dream the healthiest of the creatures would give birth to their new chieftain, so they respected/feared me since there was a good chanse I'd be the father of this chieftain. Then something strange happened, there were someone who was hurt, perhaps a numrek, but it might even have been my own father. I went over to him and now I suddenly had magic. This magic was special in some way - I think it was a kind of magic my race wasn't supposed to have (inspired by the Kingmaker, Kingbreaker duology, I think), and I healed the one who was hurt. I think the dream ended here. That was messy. Hopefully I'll get better at recording my dreams.

12/6 - 2009 at 5:30 I was driving on a very bendy, steep road that went up and down in valleys and on hills (probably modeled on the roads in the western part of the country). It wasn't just me there, but also person #1 (from a forum I'm at) and person #2 (from the same forum). It was almost as if we were the cars, and not just driving them. Then something happened, and we almost collided. This made us discuss whose fault it was. #1 tried very hard to get the blame, but #2 talked about how we all were partially guilty. After that we discussed how to minimize the risks for (driving related) accidents. 13/6 - 2009 at 8:59 I was flying a hangglider (?spelling?) with my parents. We were going to land, and we were apparently going to do that near the Svinesund bridge. We flew right over the base plate for the bridge (which was basically lots of round stones set in concrete). Then we were high up again, and we were looking for the right place for touchdown. The landscape was fairly detailed. Then we started descending towards a "runway" consisting of a gravel rode or place. Now only me and my father were flying, while my mother was somehow waiting for us on the ground. I was in the front of the hangglider and my father was in the aft (we were on the same one). We touched down and decelerated. Then we noticed that there was a yellow PVC-pipe sticking out of the "runway". My father said "That'll get in the way when we're gonna take off again". So we moved it, and my father wanted to test the runway/hangglider. He ran, and then he sailed up into the air. I thought about how it didn't make sense that he got that high with so little force. When he'd reached as high as he was gonna, the hangglider tipped forwards roughly 90°, and he crash-landed. He got the breath knocked out of him, and was lieing there squirming. I didn't know what to do, and said "Just concentrate on your breath". He answered "What the hell do you think I'm doing?", but then he was obviously OK. He commented on how he had better control when he was steering with his back (which didn't really make sense, but...). He decided to try one more time, but then we were suddenly at our terrace at home, and I thought that was strange. There was a big sheet of thin ice on the ground, and I thought that would make it hard to run there. Then some neighboring girls (who doesn't exist IRL) came by. There were 3 or 4 of them, and they were about 13 years old maybe. They had some laser guns, like the ones the police use to check your speed. They pointed them at us, and they made some red and green dots of light. When I looked closer at one of the dots, I noticed how the point of light was actually tiny, but so bright that the area around it also got colored. I thought that such a tiny dot probably was big enough for the pistols to pick up over distances, even if a human eye couldn't do it. Me and my parents turned away from the girls, so that they wouldn't accidentally point them at our eyes. I remember intending to tell them to stop it. Then I woke up, even though it took me some time to realize that I was awake.

18/6 - 2009 #1 I just remember looking out our livingroom windows, and in one of the trees sat two magpies. They looked wierd, and I noticed they looked like people wearing costumes. The branches started bending. 18/6 - 2009 #2 I awoke after some dream that I nolonger remember. I desided I'd try to DEILD, since I hadn't moved. After what felt like only seconds I was experiencing a wierd sensation. It felt like all the muscless in my body cramped, but it didn't really hurt much. (figure this was SP). I remember there being light in my vision, but not balls of light. More... just light. Then I woke up again, but I lay still and tried once more. I relaxed and was back with the cramp-feeling. It felt as if my body started turning over quite on it's own, and I kind of turned down into the bed. Then I tumbled out of bed, and was leaning against a wall next to it. I still had the cramp-feeling, and thought I had managed to roll out of bed without the SP-feeling really ending. It was rather hazy. But I thought I'd check for a FA - or whatever one should call it - so I pinched my nose. Seeing how I couldn't breathe with it pinched, I figured I really was awake. I dimly remember being in the kitchen a bit later. It kinda annoys me that I was this -->|--|<-- close to having my first LD in two years, and got fooled by a FA.

13.07.2009 Walking Dead Cat (Non-lucid) I remembered this dream vividly upon wakening, but that is 2 days ago at the time of writing it down. I remember that there was a cat. They were going to do some sort of test on it, something that involved looking at it's brain with a machine. So they attatched some sort of sensor onto it's head, and put it in a safe and closed the door. I remember that I thought they smacked the door shut a bit to violently, the cat could've gotten hurt. The purpose of putting it in the safe was so that it wouldn't move around so much. I remember a wire comming out between the safe and the door. It was attached to a CRT monitor or TV. Then, a bit later, the cat was walking around in the house, but it didn't have skin now. It wasn't bleeding or anything, but it's skin was not there. It looked pretty grotesque. It was all pink, and you could see blood vesils haning on it's limbs. They weren't all against it's body, some were hanging in the air cause the skin didn't hold them where they should be anymore, but none were severed. On the top of it's head, you could look down into it's brain, but instead of normal brain tishue, the cat had thick, long, meaty strings packed together. I felt sorry for it, and said that they had to put it's skin back on. They agreed, and then brought out the skin - it had black fur - and put the cat in it through a incision at the top of an otherwise complete catskin. Then they asked me to get some drug to subdue the cat with. I didn't know what. The cat started walking, but the incision at the top wasn't sewn shut. I wanted to pet the cat, but thought that would hurt for it. 14.07.2009 The Exam (Non-lucid) kl 6:40 I dreamed that I had a combined oral and written exam in math (2 hours oral, 3 hours written). I was working with -person-. I'd forgotten to bring a water bottle, men then I hadn't. A teacher gave me a ruler. I remember thinking that it would be difficult to fill it with water, and that I might as well use my own water bottle. Then I went to the store and bought some nuts to eat. Then I filled the filled my bottle with water. -person- sat by the sink, across the room from me. Then they started giving out the test. It was made of brownish papir. -person- were now seated next to me. We looked at the times indicated on the test, and noticed that we were to have the oral part at 10 o'clock, in an hour.

15.07.2009 Military Family Fun (Non-lucid) 7:50 I remembered this dream much better when I woke up, but I only jolted down a few keywords, to see if that would be sufficient. It wasn't. I remember we were in a room. Then my parents moved to the next room, and it was just me and the one I was with in there. I don't remember who I was there with. Then we hit something, and there were bugs there. Mostly beetles. Then they were comming from everywhere, and some of them were huge, like a metre long. We threw a bomb at them and ran as hard as we could out of the room. We met my parents on the outside, and they called us sissys. We went back in to show them how huge the bugs were to defend ourseves. In the room, my sister was holding a bug, 40 cm long. It was giving of sounds like a geiger counter, and I figured it was radioactive due to the bomb we threw in there. Then my father was holding the beetle, and it started moving. He put it on the floor, and it came towards us. We jumped over it, but it kept comming at us. I remember yelling something to my dad. There was much more to the dream, but that's all I remember. 15.07.2009 Firecracker Dynamite (DILD) I was trying to postpone getting out of bed, drifing into sleep and waking up again. I was postponing getting out of bed, drifting in and out of sleep. Then my father was there, and he told me that there was really no point in him driving me to school anymore now, as it was late all ready. This prompted me to check out my absense record, and it said 1 day 5 hours. I thought to myself that I had to send a note to my teacher. (I'm really all done with high school now, gotten my final grades and everything, but I guess the mentality sticks.) Don't remember how I got lucid, but I did. Then I was sitting by the computer. I thought to myself that I could finally see how that clock RC looked when it failed. So I looked at the digital time stamp at the bottom right corner of the screen (Dream views was on the rest of the screen). I looked at the clock, it showed 10 (I didn't notice that the other two digits were missing), looked away, though "it sais 11", and looked back. It showed 11. I looked away and back, and now it was random. At this point, I thought to myself "It's true what I read about WILDs, I really remember the last 15 minutes well", but why I though this was a WILD I have no idea. I decided that I wanted to see -person-. I went to my door and opened it. There were no-one there. I decided to walk out and look for her. I put on my jacket (I didn't go pick it up and put it on, I just put it on), old habits are hard to break, and went out the door. It was a bit chilly, otherwise it looked all normal. I said "Clairity", and it became a tiny bit lighter. Then I noticed a katt walking up our driveway. As I walked out onto the road, I heard a miaow. There was a cat-thing that looked like more like a dog on the road. I though to myself "perhaps cats is a dreamsign for me". Then I remembered the Lucid Task of the Month. I pulled a stick of dynamite out of my pocket, but the fuse wasn't lit. I placed my hand in my pocket again, and felt around for a lighter. Instead I found some round shape, and when I pulled it up it was a candle made from wood, with a lit wick. I thought about using it to light the dynamite stick, but I decided that the wooden candle was also dynamite (at this point the original stick of dynamite lost my attention and ceased to exist). I considered swallowing it, but I thought that might be hard. So I thought I'd hold it next to me. Then I though I'd better make sure the dynamite worked properly before I tried blowing myself up, to see how volatile it was. I threw it, and it stuck to the branch of a tree, without any visible means of support. It just stuck there like glued. Then I ducked and covered, while looking at the dynamite. It blew, but only like a standard firecracker. The stick of dynamite was still stuck in the tree (it hadn't been destroyed), and it faded. I thought "I can't really blow myself up with that." Then I thought that I perhaps should do the Basic Task. I started feeling tired, and could only keep my eyes half open. I was suddenly on my way out of the bathroom, trying to go "back into the dream". Then -person2- (friend of mine) was in my house for some reason. He said something to me, and I thurally "woke up". I thought I'd been sleep walking. I was a bit mad that he'd woken me and interupted my lucid, but then he said "Were you..", and he would have continued with "..lucid dreaming?", but I woke up.

24.07.2009 Failing Flying (DILD) Had this dream quite some time ago, but I didn't record it at the time. I remember I was at my grandmothers place. I became lucid, don't remember how. I wanted to see - some girl -, so I tried looking for her. I wanted to move in her direction, but I wasn't sure which way it was. I remember walking past the garages by my grandmothers place. I figured I should fly to speed things up. I tried doing that. Now I was at my old school. I tried a technique that sais you're supposed to take bouncy steps, jumping higher each time. While I was doing this, my legs started feeling very heavy. I told myself it was only my imagination - that I should be able to walk normally. I slowly awakend, finding myself moving my legs slightly in real life, in corespondance to the dream movements.

I've previously recorded a few dreams in a public DJ. To get started I'll post the dream I had tonight. 24.01.2010 Home again (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I dreamt that I was home, in Oslo, but somehow I was still attending university lectures according to my current schedual. In the dream we had two dogs, a gordon setter and an irish setter. They came to me when I whistled for them, but just the one I was whiseling for. I thought that was strange, and wondered if maybe there was something to that article I had read before I went to bed about how owners could telepathically communicate with their dogs. Another thing that happened was that it was morning. I had just found a box of lemmon ice cream, that I (in the dream) had tasted the day before (it was delicious, by the way). I intended to sit in the living room eating it in peace and quiet, but my mother was sitting there. She asked if I didn't have early lessons today, and I said that I didn't know. I went into the kitchen to check, and looked at my schedual on the fridge. I determined that today was wednsday, and I had early lessons, but when I looked at the watch I saw that I had no chanse of getting there in time. The subject on my schedual was one I don't have, but I can't remember what. Then I went back into the living room, and told my mother that I started late today. After this I remember watching a comercial on the televission, before I woke up.

25.01.2010 First Film (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID The dream was pretty unclear to me upon waking, and it's really a mystery that I remembered anything at all, having gotten less than 3 hours sleep tonight. There was a big room, and someone who were somehow saved were there. Also, there was something about a house. I think what I dreamt was a film, of sorts. It was about a person, whom I thought was played by the president of the US (though the person in my dream didn't resemble any president). He played an old man. I thought the film was charming. The end was pretty emotional, I think, and there was a narrator voice, atleast at the end. I remember the narrator finishing with "... he told them everything." (related to some government secret, I think), while the picture showed the retirement home the old person was in, and sorta glided back for an overview shot. Part of or the entire dream was in English, which is unusual for me.

[khh]

26.01.2010 Fragment 1 (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Dream had something to do with Ø. I remember him saying "did you notice how spell casters gets stronger than all others". I "saw" to lines of text, and there were no other images or sounds in the dream. 26.01.2010 Fragment 2 (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I dreamt something that had to do with medisin and a forum thread. 26.01.2010 Fragment 3 (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I dreamt something that had to do with SG-1, and we were being led into the forest. It was very green and lush there. One person, leading us, said something like "Did you think I'd only sshow you the way to the stargate?" and also something like "you'll die old here".

[khh]

27.01.2010 LEGO charity (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I dreamt about some firm having had lots of LEGO produced, and they were giving them away as some sort of charity. They also gave some to their empoyees. It turned out to be a big success, and they were asked to have more produced.

[Shift]

Hehehehe I like that dream, I can imagine houses built out of legos being awesome.

[khh]

Hehehehe I like that dream, I can imagine houses built out of legos being awesome. Yeah Was such a random dream, though. I haven't thought about lego for years, probably. 28.01.2010 Sleep cycle (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID The dream was about sleep cycles, I think. I remember I thought something like "I've never hadd a sleep cycle such as this before". The number 1000 was also important in the dream, don't know why. Hmm, I don't get it. My recall has been very bad, lately.

[Shift]

hehe, that makes you the second one to remember a dream about the DVA/class

[khh]

Could not remember any dream today. The only thing I've got is a faint impression of a toilet with lots of blood in it.

30.01.2010 Android mom (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I was in the car with my mom, vi had been some place. On the console in the car, it said something about the radio needing "res"-something. The "res"-thing it was talking about looked like a USB memory stick, I even think it had a USB plug on it. The USB thing was home, in a drawer. The message had been displayed before, but we hadn't been able to do something about it. Since we couldn't do anything about it, we ignored it. Then we were somewhere downtown. Upon waking, I recognized the section of tunnels and overpasses from a previous dream, in the dream I just recognized it. It does not exist in reality, though. Then we were at the destination, and entered a building. There were many people there. The place looked like my old junior high school, but I don't think that's what it was supposed to be. Then my mother had some sort of a problem, she couldn't walk propperly but walked jerkily - kinda automated. I knew she couldn't stop walking, and I saw her bump into people. This is when I realized she was an android, or part robot. I thought the problem must be related to the message that had showed up on the display in the car earlier, and so I asked her to go back to the car. By now she had come up to a guy in from of a television set, and she couldn't walk further in that direction. When she had passed through a door, I closed it after her. Then my father and my sister was there, and my father said something like "Good thinking" and intended to just let my mother wait behind the door till the problem sorted itself out. I said something like "What are you doing?". Then I bendt down and picked up the USB thingie from a drawer at home. I started walking towards the car, then. I pictured my mother siting on the car and me pluggin the USB thingie into the car, thinking that would help somehow. edit: I just remembered something about some dream: I remember walking into a girls room. I believe the intention was to tell her something, or something like that. When I open the door, I see her standing in the middle of the room. She is wearing a blue top and jogging pants, I think. When I see her, I suddenly feel ashamed like if I had walked in on her changing or something. I close the door, but I don't know why I'm feeling ashamed. The above came to me more as an image than anything else. This is the first time I can recall having noticed what someone is wearing in a dream. The girl does not exist in reality.

[khh]

I woke up three times during the night, remembering a dream each time, but I was feeling really tired, and so decided not to write it down. Also, I forgot that I can just shake my phone to record voice notes. So all I remember is a news reader (one of those who works for NRK) reading a text that wasn't news aloud, in the monotone voice news readers adopt.

[khh]

I woke up three times during the night, each time remembreing a dream. However the one in the middle was really boring, and I didn't bother recording it. While I was eating breakfast memories of other dreams came to me, but I did not have time to write them down. 01.02.2010 Boating (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I was out in a boat with my dad. We were driving. The landscape was absolutely gorgeous, but some places things had kind of "frozen", like if someone had taken a picture. I remember water jets hanging in the air. I did not notice the strangeness. But it made me want to take pictures of this pretty place too. Those water jets were everywhere, nearly. The landscape was mostly smallish island. For some reason, me and my father was kind of worried about being attacked by submarines. We considered that a possibility. There some planks and such had been mounted, it could be used as a rammer, due to this. Then we drove through a straight. On the other side of it, there was pretty much "protection". For instance, a Star Trooper was sitting in a turret. Then my father pressed a button, and the rammer kind of moved a bit away from the hull, and a little wheel deployed in from of the boat, slightly under water. It did not send up water like it should have, but I didn't notice. Then we docked at an island. There were docks for leisure boats there, but we were the only ones there. It was very pretty everywhere, very lush and idyllic, with sun and clear water. When we docked, I tied a line to the dock right in from of the boat and fastened it to the front of the boat, then I gave the line to my father and he ran it along side the boat, fastened it to the back of the boat and the to the dock. The line was blue and pretty thin, much thinner than the lines we would use in reality. Then I walked on the dock back to the shore. From the end I jumped, and ended up in the water, having jumped shorter than I indented. I began feeling very tired, and figured this was the reason I hadn't been able to jump far enough. I was bare feet, and landed right where the small, round, black, smooth pebbles of the beach met the water, getting a bit wet. While I was sort of crouching and making my way up on the shore, my father came behind me, he asked if he'd make it all the way if he jumped. I said yes, and he jumped from the dock, landing further up than I had, so that he did not get wet. He sat down on a natural high on the sand, and I began making my way to sit down beside him. At this point I woke up. 01.02.2010 Palace roller-coaster (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I was in a palace of sorts, and I think I've had a dream that started like this before, because in the dream everything seemed familiar. We were on an kind of path on the side of the wall, pretty high over the ground. I remember there being a thing in the middle of the room. It was another elevated path, but it was not really connected to the walls, and therefore it looked like a rectangle where the bottom line was missing. There were two or three others with me, and they all jumped from the path we stood on to the thing. One of them took a back flip, landing expectedly on the edge of the thing. Then I jumped to it too. But then it suddenly started falling. I could see cracks in it. When it should have hit the ground, it kind of slowed and something soft sort of stopped me falling into the ground, and heaved me and the thing upright again. This happened more than once, and the other had done it on purpose. They said only they knew of this effect. At this point they were suddenly some of the characters from The Big Bang Theory, and they said something about the look on Sheldon's or Lenard's face the first time they did it with them. Then something strange happened, and I was kind of "behind the scenes" and was able to see how the effect had been made. I then saw there were some blue pillows covered in white feathers that had caught us, and pushed us upright again.

You can just leave my DJ here. I'll be taking more courses.

khh - DJ Entry Spoiler for DJ Entry: Night of Sleep/Day of Nap 2\17\2010 Number of hours slept? 4:30 Quality of sleep? Good HH Experienced? No SP Experienced? No The Dream Your Dream: I remember thinking that something in the dream didn't make sense, I have a faint feeling that I was in my bedroom in Oslo when this occurred. I did the pinch-nose RC to check, and found that I was dreaming. I tried the pinch-nose RC again, and still I was dreaming. Having established that I was currently having a dream, I got a bit excited and ran somewhere. Then I calmed myself so I wouldn't wake from over-excitement. I remember taking two deep, deliberate breaths. I have faint impression that this was in my living room in Oslo. I started considering the alternatives of what I could use the LD for one by one, and I remember I intended to stabilize the dream. Time of dream? Unknown, maybe ~9 Sense of Length? Unknown/short Quality of dream? I believe the dream was realistic and vivid when I had it, but upon waking my memory of it was very faint. It took me some moments from when I woke to remembering the dream at all. Theme of the dream? There was no theme that I am aware of, but I hardly recall the dream at all. Were any dreamsigns present? None that I can remember, but I remember that the reason I suspected it was a dream to begin with was because something was strange or didn't add up. Emotions of the dream? Mainly I remember excitement at becoming lucid, and puzzlement that led to me getting lucid. Dream colors? I do not have a clear visual memory of the dream, but I think the dream was fairly life-like when I had it. Dream dialogue? I cannot remember any dialogue Internal dialogue? I cannot remember any specific internal dialogue, but when I went through my options for the dream I am sure I ran through the list mentally. I also seem to remember telling myself to calm down. Method of awakening I don't recall waking up from this dream Lucidity? Yes If yes to the above, CONGRATS!!!! and, what technique did you use? MILD/RC to DS

Number of hours slept? 11 Quality of sleep? ok HH Experienced? no SP Experienced? no 20.02.2010 Stadium and Grandma (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I had a long and complicated dream. I remember that I was at a sort of a stadium, and there were a presantation of sorts there. There were a lot of people. At one point, there were bands playing, and one of the bands played a song that really made your eardrums vibrate insanely. There was a subplot with a girl. Then I left. Apparently I decided I should visit my grandmother, because I ended up on the road leading to her house. On my way there strange things happened. Those who had attended the stadium thingie should a get to know some construction workers. When I were almost there, a mechanical digger extended a single finger on the shovel and poked my with it. Then he grabed me between two fingers, lifted me up, and put me down again. The grip was kinda hard. I exchanged some words with the on opperating the digger, and continued on my way. Then I saw a car driving around, and and I was sure that it too was connected to this thing. Therfore I went up the road leading to my grand mothers backyard. I had to climb over the gate to get in, though in reality it's really simple to open. The car didn't drive up that road. So I got out and went to the front of her house. But when I was walking up the road that should have lead to the front of her house, it looked totally different that what it should. There were apperantly a lot of road work being done there, but the fronts of the houses were also wrong. At one point there was a sign telling you that you needed a "chemical bucket". There was also a tent over the road one place. When I got out from under that tent, it started raining heavily. I though that maybe I should call my mother, but I didn't want to pull out my cell phone in all this rain, and I didn't want to go back. But when I reached her door I could hear voices and other sounds from inside. I didn't understand why the door looked so different. Then I went inside. Both my mom and my dad were there. They were having some kind of a party, and for some reason they'd borrowed grandma's house for it. Time of dream? Don't know Sense of Length? Pretty long, but it kinda feels like two dreams that are connected Quality of dream? good Theme of the dream? stadium with people, music, class mates, then constructions workers and avoiding them Dreamsigns present?

We drove along a kinda channel in the streets. There were medium sized, round stones on the edges. The channels went uphill and downhill like normal streets. Dad was driving the boat, mom said something about us having taken a wrong turn with the car as a joke. Then we were driving downhill. My dad suddenly had to check something, and I had to take the rudder. At the bottom of the slope there was a 90 degree turn. I tried to slow the boat down, but it didn't work since it was downhill. When we reached the turn, I tried to make it, but I couldn't and the boat kinda leaped up and out of the channel. The boat landed on the stones and kinda hung there for a little while, then it slid off the edge. There was a really sheer drop there, and the boat took a nose dive. We kept accelerating. Time of dream? Don't know Sense of Length? Rather short Quality of dream? very good Theme of the dream? Boating and cliffs, family time Dreamsigns present? Just general dream strangeness Emotions of the dream? I'm pretty sure I felt something when we were heading for rock bottom, but I cannot say what. Dream colors? Vivid, pretty Dream dialogue?

N/A 20.02.2010 Those damn FAs (DILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I "woke up" after a dream, perhaps a lucid one. I decided to try a DEILD. First I felt my muscles contracting, then they relaxed. I felt like I sore out of my body. I decided that now I am finally dreaming. Then my mother entered my room to wake me up. She shook me, and I reentered my body. Then I "woke up" with a start, and my mother got started. The room I woke up in was my old room at home in Oslo. Time of dream? Don't know Sense of Length? very short Quality of dream? ok Theme of the dream? lucid dreaming Dreamsigns present? I was at home with my parents Emotions of the dream?

22.02.2010 Zafira Reappearance (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I remember lieing in the back of our old car, an Open Zafira. I was using my feet to hold the rear door open. I do not recall the reason I was doing this, if there was a reason at all. My mother was driving the car. I especially recall one instance, where a truck was driving very close to us, once bumping into us causing the strucxture of the car to kinda shift around a bit before it settled back into place. This made me a bit afraid of getting my legs somehow damaged, and I made myself as small as possible, retracking into the fetal position for a time. At some point we reached a garage. There was a wall there, with an opening on the top, about a storage high. There was a tarpaulin there, streched from the top of the wall to the bottom and if you had enough speed you could drive into it and jump up. My mother didn't want to do that. Then I was on the top, with my father, and we were pulling a cord that was connected to a winch. The cord looked like a normal, round, plastic-covered electircal cable. We were fastening it to the car, and intended to pull it up. I pointed out to my father that the cable wasn't connected to a winch. He pointed at the ceiling, and the cord ran through an eye screw. I though perhaps it was a bit too frail to hold the weight of the car. Quality of sleep? Good HH Experienced? No SP Experienced? No Time of dream? About 5:30 Sense of Length? Pretty long Quality of dream? middle ground Theme of the dream? Driving, keeping the door open. Cars in general Dreamsigns present? My mother and my father, again Emotions of the dream? I was a bit frightened once Dream colors? Don't remember Dream dialogue? Yes, but I don't remember it Internal dialogue? No Method of awakening Woke up naturally at the end of the dream Lucidity? No If yes to the above, CONGRATS!!!! and, what technique did you use? N/A I woke up one more time during the night, but I was too tired to write down the dream. There was also a dream running through my mind when I woke up this morning, but it was probably an NREM dream because it felt more like a thought than a dream, and it took me some time to realise that I had been thinking at all. I didn't get it down before it disappeared.

23. I didn't sleep at night. Slept from 17:00 - 12:00, didn't remember any dreams Slept from 2:00 - 7:00, didn't remember any dreams Slept from 8:30 - 11:30 The only thing I remember was that I could somehow "read intentions" So 15 hours of sleep and almost no recall -.-

[khh]

Again, no dreams recalled... this isn't going according to plan at all. Hours slept: ~7
