Yea, that must be it. It's very strange, I know. Maybe if you dream of him again it will be a happy dream.

You haven't been trying long enough to deserve those titles. TS and I have been around for a while, and have a right to be annoyed at ourselves.

That's right!


Dreams:


Boring dream fragments, not even worth writing up. So I'll just jot down notes:

2nd grade play, very short script. Sister's classroom, eating cake. Making purses, Ethan there.

Boring, boring, boring.....


BTW, I having things going on and will not be on much this week.

Well I think after the tenth+ time I missed my ONLY dream sign, I deserve it...why am I arguing with you when you basically complemented me?

lol.
People arguing over who is the slowest... don't see that every day

Good luck, may you all be the slowest!

It's just that we expect much, much better from ourselves. We've had enough really good experiences that we are disappointed when we don't live up to that expectation.

Well, I had a better night of dreaming-- so forget all that "I'm feeling sorry for myself" stuff that I was just saying.


Dream 1:

DV Member dream.

I was getting ready for school when the phone rang. I answered it and it was CoLd BlooDed. I was surprised to hear from him. I asked him why he wasn't in school. He told me that he had been expelled. Again, I was surprised. I wanted to talk with him, but I also knew that if I did, I would be late for school. So I told him I would call him back, and I left for school.

I got to school and I went to a place that must have been the gym. There were benched and tables set up. I went to sit down and I was suprised again to see CB sitting at one of the tables. His table was full so I sat at a nearby table.

I looked a few tables over and saw my good friend from High school (A Gonzalez). He smiled at me and I remembered what a wonderful smile he had. I lifted my hand and waved and smiled back.

Then my attention was drawn to the stage. A talent show of sorts was going on. I then was CB and a friend go up to the stage. They turned on a CD that had piano music. Then sat down at a real piano and pretended to play the music. Then CB got up and started dancing.

I figured that they school let CB come back for the talent show becasue it was something that involved school spirit.

When the talent show was over I walked down one of the halls. A narrator started speaking and said something about CB being so good at things because he was 230 years old.

That confused me for a moment until I realized that CB was actually a vampire. I had known that all along.



[I think this dream was inspried by a couple of things. A couple of days ago I watched that video that CB posted of himself dancing. And secondly, I had read the book Twilight about a Teenage vampire.. Somehow they got mixed up in this dream. Hmmm...CB would probably make a good Edward...]



Dream 2:

A Lucid Dream.

I don't remember where the dream started, but I was walking across the street toward my mom's house. I looked on the ground and saw a scorpion. My first thought was to go grab my camera. Then I saw a second scorpion.

I looked and saw that they were coming from this box. I looked in the box and then saw a fat Black Widow crawl out. I continued to watch with a mixture of fascination and horror, as dozens of scorpions and BWs slowly climbed out of the box and onto the dirt driveway where I was standing.

Something about this scene made me question my state. At first I dismissed the idea that I was dreaming because this was real. I know what dreams feel like and what reality feels like. This was simply too real to be a dream.

But at the same time, I remembered how frustrated I had been at myself lately for missing so many obvious dream signs. And that if I later found out that this was a dream, and that I missed the perfect opportunity to become lucid, I would really be mad at myself.

So as I walked again twoard my mom's house, I jumped into the air to see if I could fly. I went up and came right back down. I felt silly for trying. This was reality. But I decided to give it one more try. I jumped out and kicked myself forward....and I totally surprised myself when I continued to glide ahead in the air.

I was thrilled that I was actually dreaming when I was so sure that I wasn't. I hadn't been expecting the chance to have this experience. I was extremely thankful that I hadn't given up.

I started to fly. The land behind my mom's house dropped off and I was flying high over a valley far below.

All of a sudden the dream began to fade. I had the attitude of, "Don't you dare..."

I reached out and rubbed my hands on my arms like I did in the last LD. I noticed the same way of how my hands left like they were part of my physical body, but yet I could move them around my body whith out bumping into my sleeping body on the bed.

The hand rubbing did the trick.

There is a fuzzy place here that I don't remember what I did. I think I might have flown in a store.

But at some point I remembered that I needed to try some tasks, I remembered that I told Nothin7 that I would try some of his experiments. I tried to remember what they were.

I decided that the first one was to write a sentence. I was outside of a house. I decided to fly inside. I landed by a table and looked until I found a pen. I then found a paper. It was written on, but had spaces around the edges. I knew I didn't need much room to write a sentence, so this paper would work good enough for me. I carefully wrote, "I NEED TO WRITE A SENTENCE FOR NOTHING7." I was actually a little surprised that it was easy to do and that I had no trouble at all doing it. It wasn't until later in retrospect that I realized I used all caps to write it, and I never wirte in caps these days (I went through a stage as a teenager when I did. Maybe this is significant because I often go back to being a teen in my dreams.)


I then tried to remember the next thin I was supposed to do. I then remembered something about humming a song that I made up. I tried coming up with a little tune. I didn't do as well on this one becasue I often couldn't quite get the notes I was trying for, so then whole thing sounded off and out of tune. But I feel that I was able to do it somewhat. As I went outside again I continued to hum and ended up humming a melody that I thought I knew from real life. But now, in retrospect, I think it is something I was continuing to make up.

I then remembered that I needed to find a painting to look at. I was a little shed nearby that I knew was actually a shop. I supposedly knew the lady that ran the shop. I felt sure that I coudl find a picture inside the shop.

I went in. The walls were covered with items for sale--things like dream catchers and other ornaments and trinkets. But I did see a picture. It was actually a sand painting. It was several shades of earth tones. I saw that it was a desert scene with hills and cliffs. I felt that I was able to understand the picture was of.

I continued to look. I saw more pictures. The next two were water colors. They were a still life of a chemistry set...flasks and beakers...all stacked into a tower. There were two pictures in this set, obviously done by the same artist.

I then looked up and saw a large picture. It was actually made out of a sheet of metal and pounded into a 3D picture. It was a snow scene with a barn. I reached out to touch it. I felt the shiny cold surface of silver.

Mrs. Moore was now standing beside me. I understood that this was her store. She made a comment that that picture was her favorite too.

Seeing Mrs. moore, I decided that I would have her try the experiment. I asked her if she woudl be willing to write out a sentence for me.
But before she could I was suddenly awake.

Another nice long lucid. I need to do some of those tasks; I'd like to try and write a coherent sentence. I don't know if I can do that.

Nicely done, TS. Great job on the alternative tasks.
I've been having one hell of a lucid dryspell, lately. I had a lucid about 15 seconds long, two nights ago, where I did what might be considered as completing the "prove you're indestructable" task (but I'm not sure yet =/) and one last night where, as soon as I became suspicious that I was dreaming, I confirmed it by waking myself up...for some strange reason.

Thanks, MB. I wasn't sure if wirting a sentence would be hard or not either. But it ended up being very easy. But yeah, you should give those a try. It's always fun to try tasks that others are doing and see what they are like.

Thanks O.

I'm sorry about your dry spell. Those really stink. I was on one of those too. but I guess I'm kind of broken it now. I hope you can become lucid again soon and have one of your amazing dreams.

I had another Lucid Dream this morning. I did a WBTB, which is also how I go the one from yesterday. WBTBs are my best way to get lucid.


Lucid Dream.

Like usual, I'm not sure how this one began. I do know that I was at my friend's J and P B's house. There were several other peopel there and everyone was talking.

I then noticed a piles of fossils, mostly megalodon teeth sitting in a pile. I immediately asked P about them. he said that he and some freinds had just returned from a fossil hunting expedition and those were some of what he found. I was suddenly so jealous. I had always wanted to go do something like that. And thougth megalodon teeth were so cool. I told him, "Please, next time you go, let me come too."

Later I saw a map sitting in on a coffee table and it showed the place where they had found the fossils. It was right here in town--just down the hill from the library. I was suddnely so excited to go looking for megalodon teeth myself.

Then I had this feeling creep over me. This was too good to be true. Maybe this was just a dream. I had mixed feelings about this thought. Part of me wanted this to be a dream because then I could fly around and do other cool sutff. But part of me really wanted the part about being able to find megalodon teeth here in town to be true.

I did the test I ususally do and jumped a little into the air. I did float a bit. Not much, and I questioned that a little, until I asked myself if I could float at all in real life. Then I accepted that this was a dream.

I don't remember everything I did at this point, and I think there were a few times that I lost lucidity.

I do know that at one point I went out into their backyard. I admired how nice the yard was--sectioned off with part of the yard grass, part patio, part garden. I then decided to try to fly without moving my arms in swimming style like I usually do.

I just stood there and pictured little rockets on the bottoms of my feet. It worked. I started rising into that air very quickly. I wanted to see how high I could go since I usually have a limit.

I went pretty high--maybe like a 15 story building. I wanted to look out at the horizon as I went, but my eyes were forced to look straight down. I don't know why, and it bothered me that I had trouble controling that.

I landed and tried again. I took off again "rocket feet" style. This time I noticed it was dusk. I could see a McDonlads lit up below me. (In retrospect, I know it was inspired by a picture I took of a Mc Donalds at dusk which I'll have to post after I write this up.)


I'm not sure what I did after this. But I do know that at some point I went back inside the B's house. I noticed a little fridge in the back room. I opened it up to see what was inside. I saw a carton of ice cream.

Doing this made me remember that I wanted to look in my closet to see what was inside. I figured if I flew around a little in this house that I could transform this into my house and when I opened the door it would be my room and my closet.

I did this and it didn't quite work. I saw a closet door in the hallway and decided that when I opened it it would be my room.

I opened the door and rushed inside. But to my horror I saw J and P in bed having sex. Seeing this made me lose lucidity. I was so embarrassed that I had just walked in on them like that. I said sorry really quick and closed the door.

But then I wondered if this could still be part of the dream. Man, I hoped it was. I jumped and floated in the air. I let out a huge sigh of relief.

I went to another door and opened it. This one wasn't quite my room, but there were enough things in common that I decided that I would open the closet to see what was inside anyway.

Theh closet doors were glass. I could see myself fly over to it. Seeing myself fly distracted me from opening the closet. I noticed how wonderfully horizontally I flew. I flew back and forth admiring my control at being able to fly so slow and smoothly while remaining in such great form.

I then noticed that I was wearing blue jeans. They made my legs look long and lean.

I decided to land and really look at myself. I looked taller than normal. I liked it. I then did what I did in a previous LD. I wanted to see what I looked like without clothes. So I first took off my shirt. I was wearing my blue sports bra. My skin looked quite tan. I then slipped off my bra to see what my dream breasts looked like. They were similar except that the nipples were darker. I noticed two girls/women come into the room. I knew they weren't real, so I continued to undress. I slipped the rest off, until I stood naked looking at myself in the mirror. I liked what I saw. I was glad my subconscious didn't make me all deformed or gross in any way.

One of the girls made a comment on me being naked. I basically said , "So what."

The other one started looking at me like she was totally turned on. She walked over to me and made some comment that I don't remember, but that I knew was sexual in nature. And I commented back in a like manner. I guess I was curious to see where this would go because I had never had this happen before in a dream.


And in my typical fashion, I'm going to have to end this dream here. I feel embarrassed to write down the details of what happened next. But I will say that right as it was feeling really good, I woke up.

Two lucids two days in a row, and you completed your tasks? I'm crazy jealous. I havent been able to remember to try the experiments. Drawing a cube especially. I used to draw a lot in dreams, and I remember it getting real weird real fast.

I really like the part where you're flying while watching in the mirror. I want to try that.

And the end.....HOT!

Wauw Twoshadows, I haven't looked in here for a while and just read your latest 2 lucids. Awesome! Your lucids have always been a good inspiration for me.

I had to laugh at the part of 'advice to the Newbies' and then trying it for yourself. Good to hear that it worked

I realy like the part in which you see yourself floating around and undressing in front of the mirror. Dream-mirrors are strange things. The only times I've looked in the mirror, my face was really distorted, but the rest of my body was OK.
Do you think your dream reflection is the way you would like to see yourself, or does it represent the idea you have about yourself?

Ahh, rockets under your feet, love the idea! Another inspiration

And then some hot stuff, to end this wonderful lucid. I bet you couldn't spend a lucid any better way

Wow, thanks. Coming from you, who has some of the best Lds around, I'm very flattered.

I don't remember ever drawing in a dream. I really want to remember to do that one. I have no idea what to expect.

I really like the part where you're flying while watching in the mirror. I want to try that.

Yeah, I've never seen myself actually fly. It was really cool. I look good flying...

And the end.....HOT!

I'm embarrassed I actually wrote that down...



Okay...I found the picture I took that inspired the McDonalds to show up like it did.

Hey, I've had that dream about you too

Pretty please?

First Sara, now you! You guys are too much! (I was happy for a rare mid-week lucid, so I guess I shouldn't complain. )

You should call them your friends PB and J.

Yea, that would be so cool! I love bones and skeletons; going to Natural History museums is one of my favorite things to do.

Cool idea! I sense a rocket-dream in my future, hopefully.

That's always a relief, isn't it? I usually just look away and ignore it if it's bad.

That's a bummer!

I have a theory that us having all these sex dreams and writing about them is helping us all have more and more, so don't be shy.

You are refering to the dream where I was wearing a bikini, I hope!

Pretty please?

Haha...not a chance.

Well, I did go througha dry spell. I'm barely just catching up with these two.

You should call them your friends PB and J.

Yeah, i guess you could...

Yea, that would be so cool! I love bones and skeletons; going to Natural History museums is one of my favorite things to do.

I love that sort of thing. I have a fossil collection. But it would be much more fun to be able to go out and find them myself.

Cool idea! I sense a rocket-dream in my future, hopefully.

Ooooo...I hope so. It's an easy way to fly. Give it a try.

That's always a relief, isn't it? I usually just look away and ignore it if it's bad.

Yeah, I know enough to not to get too upset by it. but it's nice to know my self conscious has a good body image.

That's a bummer!

I have a theory that us having all these sex dreams and writing about them is helping us all have more and more, so don't be shy.

Well, I don't mind as much mentioning that I had them, but I'm not sure I'll ever be to the point where I'll describe them in detail.

Since you dreamed it, I'm sure my SC will be a copy-cat! (I hope.)

Teasing you...I know...I was waiting for O to see that tho!

I was just teasing you, but oh yeah That was a nice dream

Sara, I somehow missed you post completely until this morning. I think you posted the same time I did then I just noticed mine.

Thanks so much. I look at other people's dreams for inspiration too. So it's nice to know that mine can help others also.

I had to laugh at the part of 'advice to the Newbies' and then trying it for yourself. Good to hear that it worked

I'm not sure why I haven't been actively doing that myself. It's now been extrememly helpful in my most recent LDs. Good thing to learn...even if late in the game.

Do you think your dream reflection is the way you would like to see yourself, or does it represent the idea you have about yourself?

A bit of both, I think. There were a lot of things similar between myself and the dream reflection. But there were a few things that I think I improved on in the dream--like a nice even tan and longer legs.

Ahh, rockets under your feet, love the idea! Another inspiration

It's a really good idea. I read about it from someone else on this board. That's why this board is so wonderful.

And then some hot stuff, to end this wonderful lucid. I bet you couldn't spend a lucid any better way

Haha...well, I'm sure there are a few better things I could have done.....

Dreams from last night:

They are kind of fuzzy by now. BUt I'll wrtie down what I can remember.

Dream 1:

I had been thinking about doing the "draw the cube" task before bed. SO in this dream I realized that it had been forever since I had drawn a cube. I decided it might be good to practice drawing them. So I got out a pencil and paper and drew a cube. I then drew several more.

It never dawned on me that I wasn't awake. BUt at least I know know that drawing cubes in my dreams is easy.


Dream 2:

I was in LA visiting my friend Ed. He had told me about how much snow that they had gotten. I remembered how he had sent me pictures showing the snow going all the way up to the roof.

Most of the snow had melted now. I thought it was cool that they had had that much snow, and how unusual it was that it snowed in LA.

I remember something about staying with his mom and dad.


I know I had more dreams. Maybe they'll come to me.....

And BTW...

Pics? Someday when you have time...

Moonbeam, Sure I could take pictures. It's not a very big collection, or very impressive. But I have really loved it. I have mostly small things. One of these days I'm going to splurge and buy something really impressive.

Wicked! Awesome lucids.

I wish I could fly as well as you.
I seem to fly better in non-lucids.
...bring on more superman dreams!
