Dreamer

Due to an unexpected event in life I had to take some time off of lucidity for about 2 weeks. But now I'm back and can continue.

A few notes
-dream recall has dropped. I get the sense of having multiple dreams, but can't quite remember. I'll probably get my previous dream recall progress back very soon.

-I'm still able to wake up easily just by mantra, so I'm thankful for that because it took a lot of work to get to that.

-my practice is basically the same as before, but I'm lacking a good night time technique to go along with my WBTB.

D1 (lucid)- I was walking along an old stone pathway. It was narrow and strait, and surrounded by old brick buildings, and a black iron fence. It was night, and there was a moon shining light down on me. While walking I realized I was dreaming. Instantly I began loosing stability. I could for some reason see my left side of my face, and these vertical lines of all colors began appearing in my view. I had trouble keeping my eyes open, and soon found my self awaken.

I went back to bed, and found my self semi lucid in the same scene. I walked on the path, and walked into a gym. It war really bright, an had a few people playing basket ball. I lost any trace of lucidity at this time, and also forgot what happened.

I remembered more that 1 dream, but was too lazy to write them down.

D1- I'm walking down the stairs in this building. I'm slightly I from of my cross country team. Someone decides it will be funny to pants me, and the end taking everything off . I fall to the bottom of the stairs, and was a little embarrassed. Everyone was laughing, while I just fell down the stairs naked.

I'm now with my team outside. I'm still a little embarrassed, but go on a run with a few kids. While running we talk about it, and they tell me who pants me in the first place. I go back and confront the person. It's someone I know in real life. He denies it, but I know it's him. I think I eventually go back to running with two people. We come across this dirt road I've never seen before. It's kind of steep, but we run up it anyways. At the top we emerge into this dirt trail surrounded by trees and shrubs. We follow the trail untill vcoming upon this old looking dilapidated house.

We get closer, and it appears to have been abandoned while under construction. We all walk inside, and I get an uneasy feeling. The floor has many hole in it, and underneath there seems to be a dark basement. I'm still exploring the place with my friends for a while. There some stairs that we go up, and wild doing so I look down into another crack. This time there's a dim light shining not his person whose looking right back at me. I get scared, but don't tell anyone about it. We continue exploring, and I look back in the floor to seethe guy again. He looks old and worn out. He has a large beard, and is cramped up under the floor. I still he's scary, and ignore it.

Im now in a city with the my two friends. We're running again, and find an old run down building. I think we go inside, but it's very dark, and I wake up soon after.

D1- I'm at a gas station, and buy something. The clerk is talking to me,a Ned he says something important, but I can't remember. I walk outside around the back of the store, and head on to this trail. It's cloudy out and the airs a little dark. While walking there's this small black and brown dog with a sweater on. I bring it home to show my family. They're surprised, and I take the sweater off. Then I put it on myself. It grey with dull colored stripes on it. I like it, but it's a little big. After this the dream become very hazy,and I think I wake up soon.

D2- I'm with my mom and brother at what seems to be an industrial warehouse of some sort. We're walking outside, and my mom sees a large truck of asha me dirt. My brother and I notice that theres a really large skeleton skull sticking out. My mom doesn't notice though, and goes over. She touches it, and the skeleton moves. My brother and I run back to the car. He yells at me to start it, and while doing so an old lady runs out of the warehouse towards us. She's really scary looking, and had a mouth that looks like it eats humans. I start the car, and drive forward. It feels weird driving the car, and I keep having to hit the breaks. I wake up.

D3- I'm in school at my Biology class. I'm not prepared, and there was a project we had to do on our phones. The teacher comes around to see, but I have nothing to show. I'm worried, and feel disappointed. I woke up feeling relived.

D4- my family and I are in our house. My mom has some sort of party going on, and there lots of people and food. There's some sort of competition where we have to eat a lot of food and then run around the house. I decide to try this, and sit at the table where I'm presented with a large sandwich with cheese and meat on it. I tasted good, and I finish it. I start running around, and it's really dark. I get back to the table. Everyone is crowding around me now, and my next food is a bagel with cream cheese. I get it and it's about the size of a basketball, and is more like a cream cheese sandwich. I take a bite, but wake up.

D5- I'm not sure wether or not to consider this as lucid, or even a dream at all. I remember noticing I'm in a dream, but it's very hazy and seems to be in pieces. When this happens the dream ends, and I'm lying in my bed. I feel like I'm about to enter a dream, so I try visualizing a car. I see it, but nothing seems to work. I also feel really heavy, but eventually fall back to sleep. I'm not sure if I was in a dream, or it was just a dream fragment that I became aware in. It also could have been the very beginning or end of a dream.

This was probably my best night of recall yet, even though I didn't have a LD.

D1(reoccurring): I'm going to the beach with my family. We arrive, and walk to this open green field. The sky is a little grey, but it still seems berry bright and sunny. I'm looking at the ocean, and and stumble across this small stream in the grass that has salt water running over a stream. It leads trait to the ocean. I look down, and find 3 quarters. I pick them up, and look in the sand again. This time there's the dollars sticking out of the sand. I try to grab them, but they rip. I get part of the dollar, and it looks really work out. I look down again, and see a stack of 100 dollar bills. Then my brother comes over to me and says something along the lines of this has happened before, and never works (referencing the fact that it's a focusing dream). I myself know this has happened before, but don't become lucid. I go for the 100 dollar bills again, and pull them out of the water very carefully. They're very fragile, and I hold them like they could turn to ash any moment. Then I get upset because I see they're fake. The bills have the number 70 on them, and I notice that there's no such thing as 70 dollar bills. I walk away on the green field, and see my parents standing at this sandy patch. I go over, and see two watches in the sand. One is silver, and the other has a glassy texture and is multiple colors. I pick one up and put it on, but the dream ends.

D2: I'm arrive at this building. It resembles my school, but is nothing like it. I realize that I have a running meet today, and there's a bus to pick the team up. Then I realize I don't have a unifor to wear. I decide to go into the building to see if I can find one. I ride a bike through the doors, and down this hallway where there's a nurses office, and a lady with curly short hair who tells me or park my bike in the lobby. I feel stupid for not realizing this, and drive over to the lobby where another bike is parked, and put my bike in a corner. I walk back through the glass does, and see this guy who is holding a really big churro wrapped in a paper bag. I wake up.

D3: I'm with my family and we're going to the beach. We're driving through this forest dirt road. We come across a log cabin like grocery store and get out to pick up some food. Inside it's very big, and has many isles. I'm walking with my parents, and see some girls from school. I walk by and bump I to know of them, and we say hi to each other. Once outside again, my family gets in the car and leaves without me. I run after them yelling they forgot me, but I'm too slow to get to them in time. I'm kind of pissed off, and walk down the dirt road into a highway underpass. I'm standing in a grassy spot by the highway. I can see the beach which isn't that far a way, and get angry that I'm loosing time not being ther. I call my parents, and while I'm waiting to get picked up, these kids approach me, and start talking. I feel uneasy, and my dad finally arives to get me. I remember walking along the crowded ocean, seeing the blue water, and feeling the hot sun. I wake up.

D4: this dream is a lot like GTA in real life. I spawn into a city. It's night time, and walk into an ally where there's a few cars parked. I get in the nicest car I see, and start speeding down the highway. Everything starts to become a blur, and it feels really great. Then I crash, but I don't get hurt. I drive to this large ware house, and have a mission to power it up. The first thing I need is power to get electricity to start working. It's day time now, and I walk out side, get in a car, and drive up to a highway. I'm looking for someone's car battery to steal. There a motorcycle parked in the road with a battery hanging out. I go over and take it from the car. I turn around and there's this guy who asks me to give it back. I say no, but he persists, so I have to shoot him. He dies, and people start screaming, and the police start driving over. I go over to a woman's car and throw her out. I get in, and try to loose the police, but wake up.

I took a 1 day break from lucid dreaming, and that night had my 8th lucid and remembered a non lucid.

First dream NLD: I was In an auditorium at school. There were lots of people sitting in the seats. I saw a few friends from my cross country team, and they called me over.


Second dream LD: I was walking through something. I think it was a river. Then I realized that I didn't need to do this because it was a dream. I tried keeping the dream stabilized, but it slipped away. I woke up and thought about DEILDING, but didn't because I moved around.
