Lesson 1: What is Lucid Draming?

Homework-


I had a DILD about an hour ago. It was one of my many "mystery" or "quest" dreams where I have this determination to solve this ambiguous mystery that I never really know what it is. Maybe it's a murder or something :p... Anyways from what I remember, the setting was dark and "CSI" like. I remember turning on the road (I think I am in my car) and I see a house on the right. There is an decline to the left of the road with a bunch of trees that I can see. The road winds like this ")" so left-to right- to left. For some reason, I know I have to go there. I park my car, get out, face the road, and am able to see the whole curve of the road (Because I think it is small). A "gang" or a group of rough looking people (maybe Asians?) approach me and I know they want to fight. The lighting makes it appear as if they came from a shadow in the background. I notice my surroundings get darker and I remember thinking about my touch screen head unit (CD player in my car) and it was really fuzzy. I have never seen anything look like that (It looked really cool... Think static with orange and black). That is the point I recognize I am lucid (Because electronics don't work in dreams). I get out and notice that the natural lighting is getting darker and realize I must do something to see. I create this desire for night vision, and after some "flickering" (Kind of like Mr. Smith in the matrix) I can now see in the dark. I could see in the night in a wide "O" shape. The gang got out their flashlights and I was able to disarm them without any of them shining the light on me. After that, I get back in my car. I flash to a point where I am on a highway. Still dark. (I assume I know where I am going). I am still conscious and remember the mirror trick Ellen Page did in Inception. Since I was driving, I realized I couldn't do it. So, then I realize I am driving through a place with a stone road. There are green chairs (like stacks of eight in 4x4 clusters) and I try and create an "obstacle" pattern. (Say I was driving --> way. I tried to do this: _-_-_-_-_-_-). I successfully made like 5 clusters (-_-_-) then passed onto a highway like road. I see a bridge ahead. The angle of what I am seeing now encompasses me in third-person. I can some sort of storage device hanging from the bridge. And that's when I woke up....

Trying to still get the RC thing down. Have had many dreams that I remember but only one was lucid. Posted about it.
