I was running from a spider-dog when I turned to a DC and said, "Remind me to write about this in my dream journal later!" Then I continued to run away from the spider-dog. :panic:

I was having a dream inside my dream, then I woke up having a false awakening and I even told myself that it might could be an false awakening, so I got up and walked some steps, then looked at my hands and they did look weird, but I didn't get lucid anyway :offtobed:
A DC asked me to take a look at the curtains "Don't you think the curtains moves in a strange way ?"
I understood that the DC was doing a RC, and asked me to confirm her through.
I took a look at the curtains and see that the window was opened, and the wind makes the curtains move.
It looked realistic so I answered "No, we are not dreaming right now"......
This. Every single dream.

The memory is vague, but i was walking through a hallway repeating dream terminology over and over to myself...did not go lucid.
I remember in one dream when I started to talk about lucid dreaming with my cousin. She wasn't sure what the point of lucid dreaming was.
I spent the entire dream explaining to her the scientific validity of lucid dreams, how lucid dreams can be used to explore your fantasies as well practice real life skills.
I then gave a whole pseudo-intellectual, philosophical argument for learning lucid dreaming.
I told her practicing lucid dreaming trains you to be more aware of the world around you and think critically about the fundamental nature of reality. Most people walk through life in a haze and learning lucid dreaming is like taking the red-pill which allows you to see the "matrix".
When I woke up I realized the irony of my speech and kicked myself for not realizing it was a dream.
I was in this dream, where I would go up the stairs to a landing and then jump off and end up in a new place where I could maintain lucidity, I kept doing this, but I wasn't lucid.
I dreamt that I was talking to my dad about lucid dreaming.
He seemed very skeptical, so I asked, "How do you know this isn't a dream right now?"
He said, "The neighbours."
I replied, "You never have neighbours in your dreams?"
I was about to teach him about reality checks, but he seemed to want to change the subject, so I dropped it and never questioned my own dream state. :doh:
Yet another missed opportunity last night. I crashed a bicycle from some height, and gently drifted to the ground with no injury. Ya that was real, there's no gravity in the waking life ya know.
I was in an environment I knew was not waking reality. I touched things in amazement at how real it all felt. My pea brain's explanation for all this? I'm in an amazing video game! :bang: :bang: :pissed: :pissed:
I went on to dig out all sorts of interesting items from the walls (daggers, short swords, tools, various dice) and clip them to my belt and stuff them in my pockets. I heard voices of my family from another room (probably incorporated into the dream!) and I thought "oh dang, I hope they don't come in and interfere with the *game* and make it vanish!"
Haha last night I was flying with a jetpack my grandfather reted for me :D. A couple of monts ago I was getting money from the atm and next to me their appears on the wall. You are dreaming, but I was just so happy with all the extra money on my account that I didn't notice. Then couple nights back I stole a phone in my dream and there was like a holographic 3d thing comeing out. And there where a couple of girls who used to be in my class running around naked like it was normal
The dream I was in had a purple tint to it, during the night. I looked up in the sky and noticed multiple moons and planets. Also the color of the sky was off, and I found it extremely odd....
I Shrugged my shoulders and continued to chase a dog :(
These are hilarious to read!! :chuckle:
Some of mine are pretty pathetic. In one of them, I actually did a RC, looked at my fingers, counted ELEVEN of them, and even saw a bug squirming inside of one of them, and didn't think anything of it.
Another one of mine was when a DC actually talked about Lucid Dreaming in one of mine and said,
"Who knows? You could even be having one right now!" and I didn't catch on or anything.
I dreamt I was taking a class on lucid dreaming. In the class, we were practicing flying. For some reason I still did not know I was dreaming.
I was just at a theme park of some sort in a dream and the family was gathering to go, I saw my dead relative and told him he had died, after I convinced him of this he began to take better care of himself so this time he would live.
Last time I saw him in a dream I also tried to convince him he had died but instantly became lucid, this time he became alive and I became stupid (DOH!)
I'm standing in my parent's bedroom, I want to get out to their balcony and fly. Even though "I'm awake" I remember there's always a chance that if I try to fly it might turn out to be a dream and I would be able to fly [this thought occurs a lot, dreamsign!].
One time I looked strait at a mirror and stared at it, but just complained about how much my face was distorted.:cackle:
Another time I was in a dream and found a really cool crystal, but then got a lecture from one of my teacher about how anything you find in a dream never is there in RL.;-)
^^ I found a big (walnut-sized) beautiful amber "gem" lying under a couch in a dream two nights ago, but it morphed into an uninteresting clunky paperweight, "oh, it turns out it's just a paperweight" is all I said, DOH!
^^ dream logic ;)
I was driving in my car when a military helicopter passed over my car in silence, and I though "hey this is strange, better do a reality check". I wanted to try to poke my finger through my hand or do the nose pinch, but my hands were glued to the steering wheel so I could not perform either RC. Oh well, must be real then... /cringe
I might as well recount one I had back when I was getting started, which remains one of my favorites:
I was sitting up in my bed but wasn't sure if I was awake or dreaming. I had my graphing calculator out and decided to try to RC with it. But I somehow couldn't figure out the result, or I thought I was doing it wrong. So I wanted to do a different RC but was afraid to move, because I was thought that my physical body wasn't yet in REM atonia and I might move it too and wake up. In other words, I couldn't move because I was afraid of waking up and ruining a LD opportunity, even though I wanted to get up and do a RC to find out if whether I was asleep or not.
If anyone happens to make sense of that, please let me know, because I never did. :lol:
I hold my nose and breathe in as a reality check. I successfully breathe through my nose. "Hmm, well, my nose must just be stuffed up."
My nose stuffiness level was so high that it looped back around and became negative. Apparently.
A few nights ago, I had a dream where I was walking down a street, and a coworker of mine was flying along it in the opposite direction, to my left and a few feet above my head. As he passed by, he said something like, "I'm trying out flying now. I've never done this before." I enthusiastically answered, "High-five, man! That's my all-time favorite thing to do in a dream!" and held up my left hand for a high-five. He gave me one as best he could while flying, but it didn't connect very solidly.
...well, that's true, flying is my favorite thing to do in a dream, but at no point during these events did I ever realize that I was dreaming. :doh:
I recounted, in great detail, my lucid dream from earlier in the night to a random DC girl, whispering in her ear so that my mother, who was right next to me, wouldn't know that I was a lucid dreamer. The girl noticed a weird bump on my mothers head in an area that was completely shaved, and asked her "oh, so you have one too?"
Hello, I am new here :)
I just recently now took a nap. And well posting my just now dumb way of missing becoming Lucid.
I was on my tablet and decided, "heh, I'm tired, I'm gonna see if I can pull off a WILD..." and I did. (Mind you, I only attempted this twice on separate occasions)
I entered Sleep Paralysis, and kept telling myself to stay calm, and just imagine myself sitting up in the dream lucid, I entered the dream and... Well apparently I didn't go lucid because I thought I was still in my room so I attempted WILD again 3 MORE TIMES lol and woke up.
My first False Awakening. It felt so real That's why I guess I thought I didn't do it because It looked ordinary, I was in my room and nothing was out of place. Oh well, I'm happy because that means I improved :D
I saw a bunch of cartoon whales and dolphins swimming in the sky. I thought it was a projection from Los Angeles 334 miles away.
