Using Magic (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Epic win of a dream.
I was at some sort of corporate building containing multiple stories. I'm not sure why I was there or for what purpose, so I started exploring. After a bit, I came to this ultra-secluded area, where a female magic-user was casting spells. I was observing from the window of one of the stories, and I fell out, landing on the grass. The area was completely cut off from the rest of the building, and it looked as though one had to be incredibly determined to get in...or out. The building formed half of the barrier, and the ocean the other. Not one door or ground-level window existed, and the grass turned to beach, which eventually ran narrow up against a cliff face. The only way back appeared to be to swim back.

The woman immediately took interest and a liking to me, explaining that I was capable of using magic. I was still a noob, but she told me that I should be able to enchant bubbles. A weird machine was blowing giant bubbles about 5 feet in diameter into the air; she told me to enchant it and hop inside, as it would become a super-bouncy-bubble-mobile. I did something, and the bubble headed right for me. I ended up enveloped in it, but the bubble promptly burst. The lady told me I was very close, and to try again. She also informed me that this was only the tip of the iceberg, and that my powers extended far beyond this. The dream ended before I could cast another spell.

Floor it! (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Another dream where I drive like a loonatic. Yay!

I started out in my place of work. It was dark and shut down, but some light was filtering through the windows. I technically wasn't supposed to be there; it had been over half an hour since everyone else went home, but I had gotten sidetracked by my sister, who dropped by. I'm not entirely sure why I was there, or why she was there.

I went out to the parking lot, which had taken the form of my school's parking lot. It was sunset, and everything was sort of orange-ish. My mom had appeared from somewhere, and started lecturing me about the van, which was the car I was apparently driving. Some of the sticky stuff holding the bucket of bolts together had come loose, and for whatever reason, I was supposed to fix it. She made reference to my magic dream, and I informed her that bouncing bubbles was where we were at, not fixing sticky crap on cars.

My mother and sister disappeared, and What??Me?? rounded the corner in some blue clunker truck thing. He wanted to race my 15-year-old van...a battle of rust. I agreed, and we laid out a course.

I took an early lead, utilizing shortcuts and my knowledge of the neighborhood to my advantage. I was a few laps ahead when I saw him coming up from a side street. I cut him off and cemented my lead. The dream ends.

Killer Mosquito! (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

This dream was very unusual, combining some of EGS and Code Lyoko. The girls of EGS were there, as was Jeremy of CL. The latter had invented some sort of super-bug that contained a deadly disease. Somehow, he got really pissed and unleashed his bugs, which turned out to be a pair of mosquitos. One wasn't all that lethal, but the other one had two or three diseases, and was the primary target. They had to be squashed before they escaped into society at large. Jeremy chased the bugs and isolated them in a narrow hallway of some sort. The dudes of EGS suddenly showed up, and were intent on crushing that bastard. At the same time, though, they were very careful not to touch the thing directly, for fear of getting bit. The mosquito was slippery, but it was finally crushed. Threat gone, the group let out a sigh of relief. Just then, though, someone noticed that a mosquito had taken a bite out of a hobo. Jeremy smooshed it, even though the bug was attached to the ear of the hobo. It was too late, though; the homeless dude dropped dead. A second homeless guy bit the dust shortly after. The wrong bug had been smished.

Can I Get Some Freakin' Food Over Here? (DILD)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I started out in the downtown area of the neighboring city, where all the businesses are. It was late and dark out, and I was hungry. I found a restaurant I had never been to before, and pulled up. I appeared to be the only one there.

I entered the building only to find that the restaurant shared space with a shoddily-run craft store, specializing in embroidery floss. The place smelled of barbecue, and I quickly decided I was going to be dining elsewhere this evening. I unknowingly stumbled upon the "wait to be seated" area, and left immediately, much to the dismay of the Maitre D. I invented the cover story that I was just looking for embroidery floss to avoid seeming rude, and he sort of agreed. I walked about, closely examining the flosses to choose from, only to find that the store had an incredibly limited selection. I eventually left without purchasing anything.

Still hungry, I looked across the street and saw McDonald's. I had heard of their chipotle 3rd-pounder thingies, and I wanted to try one. I found a parking space by the building, and as I was getting out of the car, I bumped into some work buddies. One of them said he loved the angus burger, the other said it sucked. I said I was going to try it anyway, and the two accompanied me in.

Inside was sort of a mad house. It was small and crowded. Soda had spilled on the ordering counter, but the guy behind it could care less. The volume of the restaurant was quite loud. Somehow, I had gotten a hold of a large root beer, which I was happily sipping away at. It started out cool and tasty, but soon became watered-down about halfway through. I gave it to the guy behind the counter, telling him to fill it up with proper root beer. He disappeared at a snail's pace, my drink in hand, and never came back. It had been a few minutes since we had walked in, and still our order wasn't placed, even though there wasn't a line. Service was sucking beyond all reason, there was a phone ringing, and people were yakking.

I looked at the counter and recognized that the drink should have been cleaned up long before now..I realized I was dreaming. Just as I was coming up with some fun things to do, the dream ended.

Nice dreams mario! I liked the magic one

**lucidreamsavy** · 03-14-2010 12:19 AM

A dream with bubbles in it! I like it

.

And, wow, a BUG dream. Now you know my pain.

And, sorry, I just find this funny. Hobo

.

Gotta love eating in a dream! Though you just drank root beer.

**Zezarict** · 03-14-2010 01:21 AM

Congrats on the lucid

Thanks! Magic just became a priority dream goal, I think.

Yeah, I have a feeling it was definitely LDS-inspired.

And, sorry, I just find this funny. Hobo

We actually have hobos up here. A railroad runs through town. Every now and then, if you walk along the tracks, you run into an old hobo camp.

Gotta love eating in a dream! Though you just drank root beer.

I'm surprised so many people have difficulty eating in a dream...maybe it's just my love of food.

Feeding the Cat (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I started out by driving into my school's parking lot, which had received a bit of a facelift since I'd been there last. It was a bright, warm, summer day. I found a spot in the second row, quite close to the school doors. I parked the car, got out, and opened the back door, where I had packed my lunch. I was damn hungry, and it was a bit before class started, so I reached in and pulled out a bag of pretzels. There were a decent number, and they were packed in a spongebob-print ziplock bag.

I nibbled on a few, then noticed a stray cat was eagerly looking on. I beckoned the cat to come closer, and it obeyed. I spoke to it about all sorts of things, giving it a pretzel once in a while. The door to the back seats was still open, and the cat tried to get in once before changing its mind. We were friends now.

After a bit, it was getting time to head in. I contemplated stuffing the entire bag of pretzels in my pocket, but finally decided on taking a single handful for the road. The cat was insistent on following me, but I told him to stay there. I wanted to find a better parking space for whatever reason. I started up the engine and pulled away from the cat.

After a bit of driving about, I found a nice bank of potential parking spaces. I saw no sign that said I couldn't park there, and zipped right into one of the spots. It was only later, after I had gotten out, that I realized it was a handicap-only space. In fact, the entire bank of spaces seemed to be for handicapped people only. I reluctantly trudged back to the car and found a new spot just as the dream ended.

Aerial Lucid (DILD)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I started out in some house somewhere...the second story, if I recall. The theme was "wood," and the house did a damn good job of that. There was wood literally everywhere. I was just sort of roaming around the floor when BAM! I'm lucid. Realization hit me like a shovel. I start trying to fulfill dream goals. I'm panicking a bit, fearing the dream will end any second. An idea pops into my head, and I run a few steps forward, but force myself to stop and briefly stabilize. I look and feel a cardboard box and remind myself that I'm dreaming. This seems to help, and I remember one of my dream goals: to fly.

I turn around and eyeball the other side of the room. I take a running start and dive down the stairway head-first. Instead of slamming into the floor or a wall, though, I'm pushed away from it. I'm now floating above the ground. I get some momentum going again throw myself against a wall, only to feel the invisible psychic energy cushion me and throw me back again. Now I'm running around, jumping, diving, bouncing against everything and anything. At one point, I notice the dream sort of fading, but I will it to come back, and it does. I'm able to get another 15 to 30 seconds out of my dream by doing this. Then, though, the dream faded quite rapidly, and I was utterly unable to bring it back, no matter how hard I tried. It ended with a false awakening.

Longest lucid dream ever. Also the most badass.

More Magic (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Not entirely sure where the setting of this dream was, but it was indoors somewhere, probably in somebody's house. My mother had just ordered four spellbooks for my sister and I, as well as some dentist dude. I was tasked with opening them. They were only wrapped in flimsy plastic, so this was easy enough. I handed one to my sis and one to the dentist; both of them received spells immediately. I selected one for myself, but no spell appeared. Most of the rest of the dream was spent waiting for a spell or trying to get a spell. At one point, I tried to tap into my magic powers manually, just to see if the energy boost got me something, but the dream faded and died.

**lucidreamsavy** · 03-18-2010 05:28 PM

Magic in your dream!

Huh...same here, SORTA. Though, not the "classic" way. Magic seeds was part of it...and the "practically unkillable man", though you already know this!

And, congrats on the lucid. How was the flying? Seemed odd and chaotic, not really flying?

**beachgirl** · 03-18-2010 05:40 PM

fun dream, and i learned something about bananas, too!

i find it cool how well you can distinguish going lucid from going back into the dream.

**Maria92** · 03-18-2010 05:43 PM

It was more like bouncing. I tried taking off a few times, but just smashed into stuff. It was fun.

And I hope to make magic a recurring element, too.

And thanks, Beachgirl!

**Serenity** · 03-19-2010 04:47 AM

Nice long lucid!! Woohoo!

**Hidden** · 03-19-2010 06:00 AM

Congrats on the lucid! Bouncing around sounds like fun.

**Leviatahon** · 03-19-2010 03:49 PM

Cool magic sounds cool to bad it faded though :/

**lucidreamsavy** · 03-20-2010 06:10 PM

Mario, come on, no new dreams to read!

After TWO whole days!

I am ashamed at your lack of trying to remember them!

*Hmmph!*

**Maria92** · 03-21-2010 04:43 AM

The late-night warcraft sessions are wreaking havoc on my recall, it seems.

This.

Cut back on warcraft.

**Maria92** · 03-21-2010 09:55 AM

But there's so much to do...like go fishing. I just learned how to fish!

...yeah, I really do have a problem.

Bringing Plants to Life (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

In this dream, I was testing to see if human willpower alone could change a series of events. I started in fall or early spring. There was a small shrub changing colors. I wagered that there was a one in a hundred chance that touching the shrub would cause the leaves to fall off. I touched it, but nothing happened. My sister was there, and she too touched the shrub, but nothing happened. I suggested an easier task, and found a couple of dormant fruit trees. Buds were just beginning to break out, but most of the tree was still barren. I took a tip of one of the branches, squeezed it lightly, and willed a bud to form. Right before my eyes, one started to grow, twisting bark fibers and breaking through very quickly. I called my sister over and showed her the trick again. I repeated my trick multiple times before the dream ended.

Slipshod Sushi Kitchen (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I was standing in a very large kitchen, typically used to prepare sushi. The cabinets were very tall; to get to them, ropes hung from the bottom. The chef was intended to climb up the ropes to reach the ingredients and tools on the top shelves. Unfortunately, in this kitchen, these ropes were all show. They were not securely fastened, and appeared to be held up with balsa wood. A quick test confirmed this. My parents and sister were there to learn sushi making, too. My dad couldn't' get over the concept of the ropes. Just as we all started cooking, the dream ended.

Really Evil Biochem Class (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I was sitting in my biochem class, though the room was entirely different from usual. It was gray, as were the desks, and somewhat dimly lit. Most of the light came from the windows, which revealed a gray sky. I had been assigned mutliple assignments, and in addition to those, the teacher regularly called upon me to answer random questions, which I usually got wrong. The subject material was incredibly advanced. A few of my classmates were there, and the teacher was a sub; my ex-Geometry teacher. We had written a 3-page essay (or at least we were supposed to), and I wasn't sure if I had completed it or not. I pulled out a massive packet of material. The essay itself was 3 pages single-spaced, and about 12 pages alone were devoted to the bibliography. I was astonished at my work. The dream faded.

**lucidreamsavy** · 03-21-2010 08:26 PM

Cool! You had magic AGAIN in your dream! Yet, you didn't even GUESS that it was a dream!

**Maria92** · 03-22-2010 05:35 PM

Okay, so no dreams last night, as I had no sleep last night. Something interesting, though, I noticed. As I was resting for the hour I had, I became aware of the fact that my brain was cobbling together random scenes, plots, and sensations. I watched as my brain jumped from Warcraft to open fields to old-school fighter planes. My mother appeared out of nowhere. I felt myself standing up, a slight breeze on my face. I heard the airplanes roaring overhead. But then I saw the truth: there was no spoon. I picked apart the dream scene, and watched in amazement as it dissolved and I slowly became aware of my real life sensations. I was still in my bed, lying down, with the covers drawn. I didn't want to move, so it took me a solid minute or two to realize I was still beneath the covers. There were a few more random scenes, but nothing that cemented into a dream.

**detroitLions1970** · 03-28-2010 04:21 AM

Hey, nice DJ Mario. Might I add this one has to be the most easy to read, well formatted DJ I've ever seen? Keep it up, it really gives it a certain style that makes it stand out!

**Maria92** · 03-28-2010 08:24 AM

Thanks! I really have been meaning to update, but a lack of sleep, epic homework, and slipping recall have been wreaking havoc on my life. Luckily, as it is spring break, you all should (hopefully) be able to count on me updating in the next few days, at the latest.

KILL IT WITH FIRE!! (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Man, did I call this dream. I was in a Halo-esque situation, but more real than not. I had the assault rifle, and I was fighting the Flood. The bastards were still in larvae form, looking for hosts to infect. I tried to kill them, but there were too many. I was traveling with a large group of soldiers, including the Commander and some other dudes in power. I watched in horror as the Flood overran them and took control, pushing their heads to one side or even completely off.

I gripped my gun and held it at waist-height; something that would surely make any soldier cringe. I blasted away at the evil zombies, leveling the lot of them. Once they died, the Flood left the infected humans, and the soldiers returned to normal. Just as I was getting praised, the dream ended.
