Thread: mikeac's SD-1 Workbook

My recall is also shitty, my lucidity even worse. Have not been lucid in 2011

It seems that my recal is doing good and even if I miss several days of dreams because of lack of sleep I can still remember plenty of dreams and lucked in the week end

That sucks Andres. Good luck, you'll probably get a lucid dream tonight.

Lucky. My recall usually is good, but when I stay up far past midnight it just goes downhill.

I just finished burning down the house, so I guess I should record my dreams.

Torotot Wars (lucid)
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I wielded my pair of torotots (Tagalog for paper towel rolls XD) and ran around smashing people over the head with them. They were attacking me inside my house, so the paper towels rolls are all I could find. I ran into my bedroom to catch my breath and do a reality check. 'Looks like I'm dreaming', I thought as air passed through my closed mouth. I walked into my hallway, and I slashed the throat of an enemy. What the hell? I thought, the short torotot had turned into my purple dagger. Sweet. I tried to turn the long one into a long sword, but someone knocked it out of my hand and tackled me. Before I could run outside to get to the apocalypse ship in China for the LPTC, he took my dagger and plunged it through my chest.

Water Pong
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I opened the door and sat down on the edge of the chair. Naomi and Nick were in bathing suits, playing a game in a small pool, kinda like ping pong and water polo. They were trying to score by getting the ball past a blue line behind their opponent. Naomi kicked Nick's ass, and I was asked if I wanted to play. I got up and waited a bit to think about it, and said, "Sure." I took off my shirt and got in the pool. I cracked my knuckles and the judge threw the ball into the middle of the water. I lunged for the ball, colliding with Naomi.

For a Good Cause
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I visited someone's house as my parent's talked with other parents about some sort of cause that had to do with school. I walked around the house and visited a room with high ceilings and an opening to an upstairs. I heard my brother and some of his friends up there. I yelled, "Get down here!" and all three of the jumped maybe fifteen feet downwards. They were all wearing ugly, shiny, gold clothes and flashy jewelry. "What are you wearing?!" I questioned. My bro said, "We are wearing this stuff for a reason," and one of his friends started doing some dirty dance.

Not Again
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
Rachel, Bowen, and I walked outside to the parking lot to check something for our bio class with a few other students. We walked back into the classroom and it was fenced out by the construction workers. The sign on the class read, "Go to room 6311 for your backpacks, check room 3211 for Ms. D." "Oh well," I said, "let's just go home." Alex walked up to us looking rather sickly. "You want these peanut butter marshmallow sandwich? I'm to sick to eat." Rachel and I said, "No, thanks." Alex set it down on a tray by one of the pillars. Bowen ran back to grab it and took a few bites. "You're actually eating that?" I asked. "Mhm," he nodded. "Gross..." I watched some asshole driver in a tan Toyota speed onto the sidewalk. 'I know that car...' I thought.

This ending to the dream and the car I saw is exactly the same as the one I remember dreaming about three years ago.

The dream skips and my mom is taking my brother and I to the parking lot. It suddenly become dusk, and the street light ominously lit up a small section of the lot. The car was racing down the lanes of the parking lot trying to run us over. "Run!" I screamed. We all scrambled through shortcuts trying to outwit the driver, which worked almost flawlessly. We slipped between cars and the driver lost us for a second. My mom and my brother ignorantly ran towards our car; they didn't see the man driving towards them. "Wait!" I called out to them with no response. The man stopped and got out of his car. My brother saw him pull out a pistol and ran back toward me, but the man shot him in the back of the knee, and he crumpled to the ground. He pointed the gun toward my mom, and she whipped out a pistol from her pocket. I ducked down and heard two quick shots and a body falling. I don't know whose it was.

Blue Fire (frag)
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
A tribe group gathered around a small ditch. I walked into the center and starting out giving commands. As I was talking, one of the men disappeared behind a blue flame. "He's gone! Someone get to finding him and find out a way to bring him down!" Midna from Twilight princess grabbed someone and said, "Me and Jess got it." The dream skips and Midna and Jess are using army toys to plan out an attack in a dark room. The dream skips again and Rachel and are searching for whatever clues were left behind. In the corner of my eye I saw a digital update log of what was happening with the investigation of his disappearance. I pulled out a plastic box with tiny rubber balls in it, with a whip buried underneath. I grabbed a walkie talkie and said, "There's a whip in his case. Would that cause a problem with the law for him?" It buzzed back. "No. As long as the radioactive balls is not attached to the whip." "Radioactive?" I pulled out the whip and glowing yellow balls were attached to the top. "Shit!" I threw the case onto the floor.

Wait radioactive 0_0 ROFL

Big Man, Small Town (lucid)
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I had exited a building, finding myself on a concrete field of nothing. I turned around, and the building is gone. I did a reality check and became lucid, but then the dream suddenly destabilizes. I rub my hands and try to observe the details of the nothing around me, and I see a city in the distance. I realize I have several tasks to do before the month is done. I decided to ignore the LPTC tasks and the DreamCatcher tasks, because they seemed to challenging for me right now. I settled on trying to do TOTM, but I couldn't seem to get a thunderstorm to come by, so I decided to do the Advanced task. I filled in the space in front of me with obstacles and ledges to free run on, as parkour could get me more focused. I swing around the bars and fly across the large gaps that my mind had auto-created, and I came across a busy city. It brought back nostalgic memories of when I lived in the city up in LA. I couldn't bring myself to grow 10 times larger for some reason, so another thought popped into my head.

I walked away back to the concrete nothingness and simply spun around. When I focused again, the city was about the size of a sheet of paper. I trampled on it, leaving only a small area which looked like water behind. I dived into the city and it became normal sized again, and I landed in a pool. I seemed to lose most of my lucidity, as I realized all my friends were staring at me underneath some shading. Jenny and my brother had pistols and were running into my house, but they were caught and arrested. I climbed out of the pool too, and a pistol fell out of my back pocket, and I got caught too, but all I had to do was go inside my house. I checked the kitchen counter and noticed my brother's work was on there, with scribbles of "I shouldn't ever point a gun anywhere again." I wrote something on that paper and walked into my bedroom to go to sleep.

I wake up, and realize, 'I'm still dreaming!' I run into the kitchen and my brother and my mom were discussing some sort of research topic. "Wanna hear what I'm researching, Mike?" "I already know, whatever, I gotta go!" I burst out the garage door and sprint down the street, trying to tear open a portal to get to somewhere. I dodge the cars and start yelling out location names while trying to rip open the air with my hands. "Apocalypse ship for 2012! Uh... Halo 3's Last Mission! No... Pyramids! A-" My mom stops me, "Hey! You're not dreaming anymore! You're wide awake!" "No, I'm-" "AWAKE!" she interrupts. "Really... Oh." I walk into one of the alleys in the street and I notice the moon is freakin huge on the horizon. I turn around and a man with a pigeon resting on his shoulder is muttering to himself. "It is pretty beautiful... It'll be even more amazing when the two moons combine... heh..." "Wha..?" I ask. "Look behind you." I turn around and there is a second smaller moon rising in front of the first one.

AWAKE!

Congrats on doing the ToTM !

Hey Mike, do you wanna be my partner, along with MadMonkey? I don't think there should be any problem with there being a group of 3 people!
Also: I HAD MY FIRST LUCID DREAM OF THE YEAR THIS MORNING WOOT! I woke up almost right away, but I'm still counting it x)!

Sure, if Nomad okays it, the three of us are already partners for the triforce goal anyways. NICE! It's still a lucid dream.

All I remember is a nightmare, but I'm omitting it from my dream journal for personal reasons.

Really crappy recall tonight. All I remember is taking a test for English, and another dream there was some sort of medical emergency and I was wheeling people around on gurneys.

Mediocre recall last night. I keep forgetting my dreams later on in the day. All I remember is a fragment having to do with picking locks.

MacGyver Lockpick
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
A man hands me a feather. "What do I do with this?" I ask. He points to a lock. I stick the bone part of the feather into the lock and quickly yank it out. The door opens, and I walk into it. There are nne doors in front of me, so I pick another and open that. 81 doors.

I also remember a frag about my cat going ballistic and killing someone, one about re-hacking my iPod, and another one about punching someone for no reason.

Up Starts from Down (lucid)
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
[False Awakening]
I toss and turn and cant seem to fall back asleep, so I get up and turn on the computer. A quick look outside tells me that it is about 4:00PM. I click a few of my favorite websites browsing my favorite sites and check my email, and my computer screen starts bugging out. It won't let me type or click on anything, rendering it as useful as a brick. An idea snaps in my mind that I'm may be dreaming, and I do a reality check. Yep, it passed, and I became lucid. The computer screen went back to normal, and I thought about the tasks I should do. I look up and an Enterprise-like starship is at a low altitude in the sky. Maybe I should check up there... I thought, so I walked away from the computer to open a portal. Might as well kill two birds with one stone, so I fell backward to stabilize the dream and transport to the ship. I felt myself rising upward into the sky, but quickly lost altitude. I woke up in my bed, ticked that I failed. I couldn't really fall back asleep.

The one I had was kinda long in my perception of time. It skipped around a bit but I'm sure it was one whole dream.

A Day in My Dream Life
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I sat down, alone on a conrete bench overlooking the quad. Soheil and Corbin sat down next to me, which was unusal because they are both assholes. They make some joke and laugh, and I manage to pull off an awkward smile. They dismissed themselves and left. The end bell rings, and I get up and leave. For some reason, Nini, jenny, and Kyle are all coming with me, even though they don't normally come this way. I walk down the path and it changes into a trail going underneath a bridge.

Nini says something about a party, and the trail opens up to a huge, awesome hill with tons of my friends, old and current, here. "AWESOME!" I yell. I try to drop my backpack but it's gone.I run up to a group of my friends and start babbling something. All I remember is saying, "If this was a dream, I'd fly around, cause this place is a great place to do that." Nice. Some lady called us all up for a Turkey club dinner for free and a blank check. This party just got better. I got in line, signed my name, and walked away with a freakin sammich. I was content. The dream skips and I'm back home, watching some silly movie. It seemed to have Jimmy Neutron and Sky High combined in some weird way, I'm not sure. The movie was about thirty minutes long.

Waking Up in Vegas
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
lol stupid reference to a Katy Perry song.
My mom opened a suitcase in front of me and started packing in clothes and stuff. "Is that for the trip?" I asked. She nodded. "What days am I gonna be taken out of school?" I looked outside as I spoke. I noticed there was a balcony outside, as if we were on a higher story building, and it was nighttime. "Tuesday through Thursday," she replied. She shut the suitcase and stood it up on the floor. The dream skips and I'm coming out of a Vegas hotel room. I notice Nick was here, and I asked him who else was here. He named off Jenny, Rachel, Nini, Angel (ugh), and Dylan. Angel walked by, his usual solemn expression on his face. He opened the gate and I followed him. I stopped as soon as I saw Rachel laying back in the pool. I dipped my feet in the water. "Hey what are yo-" a splash interrupted me. I turned toward the direction of it and noticed the sunlight glinting off someone's ass. "Oh god! Is Jenny naked?!" Rachel gave a nod that said, "Eww... yeah." "I'm outta here," I stated, and got up and walked back through the gate.

LOL! "I'm outta here"... *walks out*
And why the (ugh) after Angel?
You don't like her... or is it the complete opposite?

Or is she fat? Lol

Angel's a dude, my ex-best friend. Notice I said "his face". lol. I'm not gonna update until later cuz I'm sick.

Oh yeah xP! Is he spanish then? I haven't seen many non-spanish guys whose name is Angel, in fact I haven't met any American or Canadian guy with that name x)
Damnn that sucks! get better bro

I just finished my last diploma for this term !!
Which means I will be starting school in like 4 days. I will focus on lucid dreaming these days.

Same here, but I'm still sick. I had no recall this morning , but yesterday I had a fever dream that had to deal with donations, swimming, Ezio, and water-proofing my iPod.

I'm starting to feel better, my fever is down which is good. And yeah he's Mexican.

Right is Wrong (lucid)
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
This was supposed to be the concert task for the MILD class, but I failed, or rather my subconscious seemed to have failed..
I immediately noticed I was in my old home as soon as I entered the dream. I ran out the door, lucid and task-oriented, and nearly fell into the crevice that appeared to be what was left of a driveway. I hopped into the street, and noticed half the place was in ruins, cars flattened and buildings crumbling to the ground. I didn't incubate that. I ran across the block, noticing it was freaking daytime, what kinda concert was in the daytime! I turned right and heard music, but I couldn't pinpoint where it was. I turned right again, which was probably a mistake, since the music was louder on the left anyways. I opened the door to a fancy looking place, like a ballroom-type building, because maybe there would be some sort of concert of opera in there. It turned out to be a Christian sanctuary. My feet seemed to be glued to the ground, and I couldn't seem to move myself through TK. I tried to change the scenery, but all I did was knock down a statue. A woman got mad at me and bitch-slapped me, causing me to lose lucidity. I apologized, and she began to talk about the importance and reason for all this stuff. I wasn't really listening. I woke up because my mom nudged me awake to take my temperature.

Cave Explorer
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I sat down with all my friends in a blank, gray room. For some reason, every time I moved I hit McKenna with my foot. We all got up and left after a while, and treaded a sandy area until we got home. McKenna kept on looking at me for pretty much the rest of the dream. I fell asleep in my brother's bed in this dream and I was dreaming about breaking into a mine. The dream within the dream had a kind of classic video-game feel. Silver, me, and Zack ran past the guards into the cave, and I quickly followed him. Silver got away, but I got caught before I could jump off the mountain, and was thrown at the bottom of the cave. I found an alien diamond the glowed with every color, which the miners mistook for radioactive iron. Me and Zack took it with us and handed it to Dylan, and we ran away. I woke up in the first dream again, and ran over to Zack and Dylan if they had the same dream. We each wrote them down and compared them, and they matched up. Ivanna walked in and gave us something for the DS that allowed for multi-touch capabilities. I forgot the rest of the dream unfortunately.

oh i see, good thing you;re feeling better !

HAHA, that bitch slapped the lucidity out of you.

Yep. It sucked though. XP

Failed AGAIN (lucid)
NON-DREAM NON-LUCID LUCID
I walked around the school field and realized that this was a weekend. I became lucid, and I realized I had to finish the concert task before the next class. It was awesome though, since the dream was already stable without me trying, which has been happening a lot lately. I tried to tear open a portal, but it didn't work. I ran into a room quickly to see if I could open a door to a concert, but instead I opened the door to a classroom watching a science documentary. I smacked the projector to see if I could change it to an image of a concert so I could just, you know, jump right in. All I did was make it skip to the end of the video. I opened the door and exited the classroom, and facepalmed myself awake.

Focusing too much on anything makes it more difficult to accomplish things in my experience, especially if you get violent (rage) about it.
