What do you do when lucid dreaming?

For anyone out there who can lucid dream willfully have exceptional conrol over their dreams (or those who wish to) what do you do (or what would you want to do) when you lucid dream? Just curious.

Me? I like to do exciting, adrenaline rushing, dangerously death-defying, courageous things. Like fighting my way, unarmed, through a heavily-secured military install with soldiers armed to the teeth with automatic weapons to break my ally out of a prison, or jumping from a high-rise bridge into freezing cold treacherous ocean waters and swimming, unaided, to an undiscovered island to retrieve a rare blue diamond. Or venturing through an uncharted mysterious jungle, riding a dangerous fierce tiger at full speed from a cannibalistic man-eating race of baboons. Or just . . . well you get the point. :roll: So what do you guys do during a lucid dream, given that you can control it? :)

So far I can't do all that much. What I want to do is live out fantasies like that. I'd go into my favourite tv shows, video games, and movies mainly. Right now I'm going to try and get my bearings so that I can stay lucid long and with a high level of lucidity. The kind of stuff you're talking about may wake you up if you are in a light sleep or even in a relatively deep sleep.

On the contrary, I think exciting stuff keeps me in the dream. When I'm lucid, I don't stop moving!

I usually try to convince DCs that they're dreaming, which I find interesting, as they have a tendency to either become afraid - whereupon they disappear - or get very excited and fly off on their own, change into strange beasts, or change their appearances of their own accord.
Flying is the all-time favorite of course. There's just that weird feeling about it that makes it seem so possible. I've tried replicating the sensation of dream flying in real life...didn't work.

LOL that's hilarious! :D

It's like an instinct to fly. Maybe we were all once birds or something. :P

I can't really fly fly, but I can float. :?

I *L-O-V-E* controlling the elements and other powers. I suggest you to try and control the ocean(i liked that one the best)

I don't like to fly(im not very good at it) but when I did, i sometimes lost lucidity or my vision would become blurred, so i avoid it altogether for now.

Most of you say that you can't stay in a lucid dream. I can't get out of one. I think my subconcious works backward because whenever I try to wake up, I'm trapped. Trapped in my own dreams. But I guess it's nothing to complain about, right? :roll:

Had that when I was little. Would love to get it back. :cry:

lol but hey I have confidence. ;) If you did it before, why not do it again?

Wait, if I did what again? :?

I was talking to myself. If I had LDs before, why not have them again. ;) It's my little prep talk.

Prep or pep? :)

Shoooot. LOL PEP. pep talk.

Oh man it's late. :P :P

i had one last night. it was really really weird

I've heard that when you are in a lucid dream and cannot wake up since you are in control, just envision yourself waking up and, wake up. Read it somewhere on site I think. Haven't had a lucid dream in a long time so I wouldn't know for sure but tell me if it works.

Tried that. For me to wake up outta any dream it just has to, well happen. Sometimes I can wake up when I want to, but any other time I'm at the mercy of my dreams. It's kinda cool cause instead of complaining about waking up too soon, I just go along adventuring and living up the excitement until my body allows me to get up! :D

When I was a kid and was having a scary dream or something I had a great technique to wake myself up. I just blinked twice. I don't know if it'll work for you but you can give it a try.

As for things that I want to try in dreams:

1) Find lottery numbers and then use them in real life.
2) Ask a dream character for a phone number or an email address and then contact that address/number when you wake up.

I know it doesn't sound like that much fun, but the implications are pretty cool.

In my dreams, I'd always try to fly. My first experience of flying was when I was 9 yrs old. From then on, I'd try to fly again. Yes, flying has that exciting sensation. Now, when I dream, I fly around and do ballet. I find it beautiful. I even add some ballet music to go with the theme.

fly, interact with dream characters, but there is so much more to do:

anyone have any suggestions on more exciting things to do or things that I might not have thought of

Somewhere on the board is a huuuuge "Checklist" type of thread.

BradyBaker, that's such an sweet idea! That's like a science experiment, lol.

fly and hold a vacuum cleaner (turned on) nozzle pointed to where you want t fly

I've always wanted to live alone on a stranded island, I'm still yet to try it :)
