MILD 1 workbook - LucyintheSkywithDiamonds

[LucyintheSkywithDiamonds]

This is my workbook for the MILD 1 classes here at DV. Guess I should probably introduce myself first since I haven't really posted a lot on here, definitely have read some very interesting posts on here since joining. My name is Johnny, I'm 21 and live in a pretty small town in WA at the moment.I'm into photography, skateboarding, reading (been into this really great book by Robert Waggoner called Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self), finding new music at the library... I've been interested in lucid dreaming for a while now but haven't been focusing on it as much as I'd like so I decided to really dedicate myself to it this time. So, onto my workbook... My common recurring dreamsigns: being in a car skateboarding being around my highschool or seeing old friends from it using a camera water wallet I guess I'll start with a dream I had last night 08-03 (≈2:30am) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Non-Lucid] In this really vivid scenery of some mountain forest during the day, I notice some little islands on a lake while wandering along this trail. I think before this moment I was on a boat with a few friends and other people I don't know... At the edge of a cliff I look down and suddenly I'm flying through the air across this body of water. It's not like usual flying, but almost like I'm on a zipline because I notice these lines above me going in different directions and have no control over my downward path. As I zoom closer to the landing I notice it's this hill with a bunch of shrubbery and brush, very ragged looking terrain. I can sense how rough the landing will while hoping to myself I don't fall into the water because I feel like it's going to be really cold. I crash into the hillside in a surprisingly gentle way right at the edge of the water and look up to the place I just flew from. I notice all the lines above me, not black like cables but like more like strings of light or energy. I reconnect with one of these lines somehow and start flying back upwards. I'm now back on a boat where two of my good friends are and there's this guy who I assume is the captain and decide to pay him some money. I leave the boat and somehow I end up in what seems to be an old empty parking garage and I start to take photos of the trees that can be seen through some old windows. There are all these fractal, mold shaped patterns of yellow and orange growing on the glass which looks cool in the shots. There's also some white letters along the wall that get in the frame of my photos but as I try to readjust my composition I notice that some of them are somehow still in the shots, like they are outside and suspended in the air. Then I wake up
