Thread: Cookieh's workbook

Heya Cookie
As I replied to one of the other workbooks, reality checking is not the most important part of the process but questioning your reality - even that brief moment of awareness is really what is crucial. The more often/longer your awareness session is, the better. Of course, this requires frequency What technique are you going for?

Hai fOrceez!

Mainly DILD, but if I have more time for sleep I like to practice WILD.

Twice I was even close to a dream, one time I saw a very detailed pillow case texture, even though I don't have a pillow like that I still thought I had opened my eyes. :/
The other one was when I started seeing a meadow and a forest in the distance. I was in such an uncomfortable position, that I had to get up.

I really like it when I just see a few dots, lines and whatever, and then after a little while it has all gone crazy, so many colors, shapes and everything

Hey cookieh, how goes it?

I see you have been keeping up with your journal, that's good. I noticed that you looked at your ipod in two of your dreams. Possible dream sign?

Could be. Stores and small shops could also be a dream sign. I am going to suffocate with all this reality checking .
Last night I had this (semi?) lucid, here's the entry.

Not sure if accident, but you didn't link it

Or does that link not work D:..?

Oh, i just couldn't see it! :O

Congrats Cookieh! More than likely, it was a full lucid with some less than perfect recall. I wouldn't call it a semi-lucid, because you definitely knew you were dreaming. You did the RC, it failed, and you tried flying and such.

Well done, the RCs seem to be working well for you

Thank you c:
Wow, I need that good recall back, before the next lucid D:

So speaking of your recall, I was just curious: Are you getting plenty of sleep lately?

Congratulations on your lucid cookie!

[lucid cookie lol]

I am currently getting around 7h, I'm trying to adjust the sleeping patterns now.

And thanks Paige

Would it be okay if I didn't journal all of my dreams in my DJ here, but only when it's a lucid or some dream I'd really like to share?

(I will still, of course, keep a DJ)

Oh totally, it's not necessary to post the details. That's just for you. I'm just more interested in your progress. If you wanted you could just say "I made progress."

Had a DEILD by accident, entry here.

Hooray for accidental DEILDs!!!

I also love puppies.

A new DILD!
And perhaps a new dream sign, guitars. Entry here
*Cookieh still has that happy*

Alright, congrats cookieh!

Yeah if you play the guitar alot in real life, it'll most definitely work it's way into your dreams and become a regular dream sign. I love how you were able to expand it when it only had the 2 frets.

congrats cookieh!!

because of this achievement, I hereby reward you with 250 French crystal vases personally handpainted by Napoleon Bonaparte!! Enjoy smashing them!

Beautiful. Mr.Ranjit is a kind man, I see. Did he give you a discount on those?
It will be a joy smashing them

Oh right, 1 ld this week.

I first discovered lucid dreaming around October last year, I saw a meme about opening your eyes in SP, they said it's the scariest thing they have ever experienced. Scary things interest me, so I googled to find out more about it and ended up on this site. I lurked for a few days and then, on October 9th, I joined. 6 days later I had my first lucid dream, where I rc'd and woke up straight away.
I've already taken this course, but I thought I'd take it again, since I was slacking around the last time

Long-term goals

[] Meet Death
[] Talk to my subconscious and get answers to stuff
[] Find my DG
[] Go to Ranjit's place with Paige to pick up some vases
[] Control fire/water


Short-term goals

[x] Have a LD
[] Have lucids two nights in a row
[] Draw in a lucid
[x] Play guitar in a lucid
[] Be a cat.
[] Kill someone (....Imeanwhaaat?)
[] Burn down a building
[/] Eat dream food (done it in a non-lucid, want to do it in a lucid as well )
[] Jump off a high building
[] Use 4 languages in the same dream
[] Throw cacti at OldSparta (yes, I am serious)
[] Lock rudedude in a room full of cats >
[] Swim in water.
[] Sit on the iceberg and watch Titanic sink



Dream signs

Places

• My childhood home
• School (previous schools and current)
• Stores

Living things

• Classmates (from previous schools and current)
• Any family member
• Users from DV
• A.
• M.
• Cats (maybe..)

Objects

I have also noticed that I've had a few dreams at night. You don't say? Ah, no, you dumbass. I mean it's dark in the dream!
(I like talking to myself.)

Current technique(s)
Hoping for DILD's. Not giving up on WILD's, I have gotten to hallucinations!
I have given WBTB+MILD some thought, but I haven't gotten to it just yet. (slaps herself for laziness)

Reality checks
Mainly nose plug
Observing surroundings, finding weird things
Trying to read the same text more than once



Cookieh, I am disappoint.
Stop being lazy by not DJ'ing EVERYTHING you know.

Cool how you found dreamviews cookieh. You saw a meme about opening your eyes during SP? What was it, I'm curious now.

Also, I endeavour to do everything possible in my powers to assist you in throwing a cactus at OldSparta. This is very close to my heart.

You seem to have a better grasp on goals and DreamSigns this time around.

I bet you'll have a lot of luck this time!


I like that sig also...

ZOMG Cookie I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE those goals!! But I know you know which one I love most. Visiting Ranjit of course! hahaha

Good luck my cacti-wielding cat-loving friend!

P.S. To make it easier for you to identify him in your dreams, I would like to show you a picture of Ranjit
