Hello, I am Dino

My name is Dino, I am 18 and from Croatia.
Please understand that my English is not the best, I am a good speaker but bad writer.

This is my story...
I thought I am the only one who can alter dreams and control them...
Once I was speaking with my school friends, and I sad that it is cool when you dream and realize you are dreaming. They started making jokes about that and didn't believe me... I fealt like a freak, but on the other side I felt blessed.
I didn't talk to anyone else about that...I was confuzed...but then I found this site and I can say I am shaking...I can't believe this...I'm not the only one... First time to hear it is called Lucid Dreaming...
I wonder what does Lucid mean on Croatian ???
Anyway, I never had Dream Journal, but from now I will.
Mostly I can remember 1 dream/day, but somethimes more...
First time experianced Lucid Dreaming I fealt so powerfull and kind of freaked...I woke up thinking that I dreamed I can control my dream...and then it was happening more often. and lasted longer...
I just love the fealing when I create my world...and to say something about Dream Traveling...I just read about dream spinning method..I have never tried it...I usualy crunch, lower my head and close my eyes...then I think about somewhere/something and my chance to be there is about 50%.
Last couple of months, I can't sleep...I just end up spinning and thinking all night...My life is full with problems and I have something to do all the time...rearly I sleap more then 5 hours...Sometimes my dreams comfort me...there I don't have any problems like in the real world...
Can't wait to meet all of you...I'll try to come on this form every day.

I can't wait to read the whole forum...

Welcome, Dino. http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wave.gifIt's great that you found us. I'm glad. You're not alone, my friend. We all share the experience of talking to someone about our dreams and finding that they don't believe us, or call us names.

We're more than happy to have you here, and if you have any questions or comments, please feel free!

Hi Dino :D

:yumdumdoodledum: :yumdumdoodledum: Welcome again Dino! :yumdumdoodledum: :yumdumdoodledum:

I think you will enjoy it here. We discuss everything from dreaming to quantum physics here!

Welcome!!! I know what you mean about everyone thinking you are a freak for having lucid dreams, I made a big mistake telling certain members of my family about this great ability. Now some of them think I need a psychiatrist... I've always needed one :D but it bothers me that it took lucid dreaming for them to think that.

Thanks for the welcome !!! :lol:

Hey Dino

I had my first Lucid Dream last night and I started recording my dreams for a week and a half. I tried the spinning method and I closed my eyes before I spun. For me it didn't work but I have read that spinning usally works when you have your eyes open. But some others say that you can close your eyes. Im trying to find out hte best method for me. But I say try all.

Welcome!!! :goodjob:

Welcome Dino!!!
:cheers:

Last summer i was in Croatia at Sibenik for a festival. I also went to the waterfalls. It was great :D . You have great hospitality, it surprized me how similar you are with us Greeks. I'll defenetily come again. :happyme:

I've finaly slept well and had a dream but it was short...
I was driving in a taxi...then I realized...I never drive in the taxi...
Just beafore I took control of the dream...taxi driver (I didn't see him) was going straight to the wall and speeding up...I felt the air blowing to my face like the car was cabriolet but it wasn't...I leaned left wanting to jump out of the car but he was driving too fast...I thought I will get killed if I jusmp and if I stay...so then I forced my self awake...
When I got awake I still felt the air blowing as my window was open.

I am waiting for the right moment to try the spinning method...

adroid28 if you go to Croatia again...go on the summer and visit Rab (Island) the beaches are great, the people are great....I come there to visit my grandfother and grandmother every summer...

25% croatian here! represent! :okbyenow:

Someone from your family is croatian...?
Do you understand Croatian...?
( Drago mi je! )

Howdy howdy =)

Hey no worries about your english, You seem to have a good grasp of it hehe even though its my first language I stink at it :D let alone know another language.

Alot of us went through that conversation you tell them about a dream you had, and they look at you like your bonkers, I thought everyone could do it too, Ive known about lucid dreaming for years but I have only recently started to focus and really work hard on it to get better.

Welcome !

:cheers:

my grandmother was 100% croatian. she never taught me any though... :cry:

I've never exercised lucid dreaming...It just came to me, but from now I will try to control them as long as I can.

It is a shame...I am 3rd year of high school and what we learn from English is a shame...I have grade 4 (B).
I am the best reader and speaker I class but I suck when it comes to writing it down on paper...a lot of spelling errors.
If I didn't know English I wuld never understand the computers and wuld never go online...I love programing, and I need English for that too...

You like programming Dino? If you ever want to learn a little more about it let me know, Programming is my background. I'll be happy to share some information with ya.


Have fun, keep Dreaming!

Yes I program in Visual Basic for now...but I am still learining.
Programming is like controling a dream. You make what you want.
You can create your own world ! What language are you programming in ?

Mostly Haskell I like its fast implentations and it has a great interperter known as -HUGS- its wonderful for script developments.


When I frist started at IBM I worked with Eclipse Prolog which was a great start up Language. The resources allowed it to handle quantifiers, object-variables and substitutions as primitives. Thats when I really gotten excited about programming I was writting some awesome scripts. Keep it up Dino its a great field to be in you'll love it.

Hey dino and welcome to DV, you noobie! :barf:
