Thread: Task of the month for August 2010

I completed the basic task by accident, as in it was just a normal dream and I didn't even know about the task.

I was by a school and the walls were very high, and the school yard seemed to be almost like a maze. MY dream only took place in between two buildings of the school though.

There were animal type people things that were attacking me and my friends. Each had a different colored head and aurora about their head. One was blue (the bird man type thing), one was purple, one was yellow (his head resembled a Lego man's head), one was green, and one was red. They said "Look what our god has done for us! Your god has done nothing for you!" I replied "I have faith that he has done something to help us and that he will deliver us." Then something circular showed up and with it I could trap the animal type people with different colored heads (we'll just call them demons). After I trapped them with my friends we opened the circular thing and there was a bunch of stuffed sponge bob's and Patrick's, the starfish. We had to rip them up into smaller stuffies.

After one of my friends turned into a giant block type of thing. Kind of like a Whomp from Super Mario. She had three heads: a large yellow one, a small red one on the right, and a small green one on the left. My friends and I had magic powers. My colour was yellow. I put my hands in a spherical shape (like Dragon Ball Z) to charge my attack. There was a ball of yellow energy that I shot at her head. We eventually killed the three heads and she was back to normal.

You need to be lucid though swamp01

*WakingNomad nice one hahahahaha, very funny.

Ok, I accomplished both tasks during a WILD this morning. At least I think I accomplished the basic task. I didn't really find separate objects of each color per say. So I'm not sure. But here are the excerpts:

I ended up in what looked like a child's nursery. There was a dresser against the far wall with many different colored plastic objects on it. I thought, "Oh I can do the basic task of the month." Unfortunately the array of objects was a little bewildering. None of them was recognizable. I touched a wooden thing that was hanging from the ceiling. It was the size of a coffee saucer and the shape of an amoeba. But it was green. I walked over to the dresser. I thought, oh, wait I'm a painter and I wanted to do red, YELLOW and blue. Everything on the dresser was a combination of red, yellow, green and blue. I picked up a clay vase that was enameled in bright green with red and yellow stripes and spots on it.I touched each color to acknowledge it. I realized I still needed blue. There was a round blue magnet on the wall and I spun it. I continued walking around the house. I saw Alex's aunt Rosie. She was in a long fancy black dress with beaded fringe. I walked over to one of the walls to stabilize and noticed a large tapestry behind glass. I put my hands against the cool smooth surface of the glass and examined the white stitching on the lavender cloth behind it. I told Rosie, "You have a lot of nice tapestries here." She thanked me and started showing me around. I looked at some more tapestries around the house. They were all intricate but rather monochromatic. A light went on in my head. "Hey, I bet you have a unicorn tapestry!" "Why yes, I do," she answered, and led me into the next room. No unicorn tapestry there. She led me to another room where there was a bare space on the wall about the size of the unicorn tapestry I had in mind. She pointed to it. "There it is," she said. I said, "That's not a tapestry, that's a fish tank." Sure enough, there was a black pane of glass with a fat gray fish floating behind it. Next to the fish tank there was another opening in the wall with screen over it. I looked through it and saw that it opened into another room. It was a large, dimly lit room with a concrete floor. There were farm animals wandering around. On the far side of the room there was a pen with goats in it. There were a couple of dwarves tending the goats. "Hey," I said, "I think one of those goats is a unicorn!" A white goat emerged from the middle of the group. "It is! That one's a unicorn!" The person standing next to me seemed skeptical. "It is!" I insisted. With that, the goat grew and became a pure white horse. One of the dwarves was brushing its mane. I had to find a way into that room. I went through a door to my left that led into a hallway made of white painted cinderblock. I went down the hallway and through a door to my right that led outside. It was dark out. There was a metal door on the side of the building. It had a sign that said, "Keep door closed. Horses inside." There was no handle on the door, but I pried it open with my fingers. Inside, the room was lit with florescent ceiling lights. The dwarf was leading the white horse around the room. I looked hard at the horse until a white horn sprouted from its forehead. I walked over and asked the dwarf, "Can I ride her?" "Why sure," he said, "She's very friendly." The unicorn lowered her head and nuzzled my hand, but looked at me worriedly out of the corner of her eye. I felt bad that she didn't trust me, but I grabbed her silky mane between my fingers and jumped up onto her back. Her coat was incredibly soft. She reared up a couple of times and I woke up.

Got the basic one at least
Yesterday I learned DEILD and tried it out
Amid the confusion I finally entered a lucid...
I walked into a store and thought about the TOTM's Red Green and Blue, easy enough so I walked past this weird smelling salt display one was red the other was blue sweet so I walked down an isle into a secluded cluttered corner and saw a mid thirties DC he seemed a few bricks short of a pyramid he said "Ha! I beat you to it" I somehow knew that was my spot and the laptop he had was mine but I was Lucid so didn't mind. He was talking avidly when I saw a green candle and thought now for the advanced but then I thought wait wasn't another color yellow, luckily for me the shelf in the area had all colors for candles (including yellow) so I thought I was okay. I left the musty weird antique shop for my house we were having a party there so I asked someone if they could summon their unicorn for me to borrow, the whistle was like a dog whistle and soon enough there was the thumping noise (I realized later this is the noise my dog makes when she is chasing the ball). I walked out in the dusk (which I managed to change later) to meet my unicorn. It was my dog with another docked tail on her forehead like a "horn" lol better luck next time I guess

there are only 15 days left in the month and i have only had one LD, so i probably won't actually succeed at this... but it looks cool and hopefully by the time the next task of the month comes out i will have had at least one more LD and actually have a chance at getting it.

The Store Coupons - Lucid - 1/5
We had somehow acquired a large stack of store coupons for this place... it was much like one of them Walmart Superstores. Anyways, some dream character lost our coupons somewhere in the store. I was passing through an aisle of brightly coloured fuzzy socks, there were almost every colour of the rainbow... bright reds, yellows, oranges, greens, blues, and blacks. I remember thinking to myself, "Sometimes, all you have to do is turn the corner and what you seek will be there." I was about to do just that, when the dream started dissolving. I went back to the socks and started rubbing them against my face. It started to bring the dream back in.... until I stopped. Then it faded out again

I diiiiiiid iiiiit!!!!

I did the FILD technique and literally felt something happen in my mouth when I transitioned. I slowly did a nose RC with my dream eyes closed and I could breathe I lay still for awhile trying to calm down. Eventually I slid out of bed there was a moment when I almost lost it cause I could feel my real legs. I remembered the TOTM and immediately went over to the dresser and started looking for colorful objects. I picked up a small bottle with it's lid painted red (I think it was a lip stick bottle) and two female deodorant cans one with a blue lid and one with a yellow lid. I was super happy but when I looked at my objects the yellow lid had turned to green and I panicked. I rummaged through all the items on the dresser and found a glass bowl with a yellow glass lid that was slightly transparent. Happy with that I headed over to the window to either teleport or just go outside, I was planning to find some unicorns. As I approached the window I started loosing the dream. I spun around slowly and felt the wooden cupboard door. It helped and I decided not to go outside but to go and see what my family DCs were up to as I got to my bedroom door I woke up.

Ara ara....... If I don't get one down I'll be left behind..... sure... I'll do this month's expect an answer tomorrow... I'll do them both. Red Unicorn..... Blue Unicorn.... Yellow Unicorn



What happened to green? oh well

16 days later, and I still have to ride that damn unicorn.

...I did summon one and was about to get on, but my mom woke me up.

Sorry for double-posting, but I finally completed the TOTM.

I am not sure you have to be lucid, actually.

Well... its the lucid task of the month. If not being lucid was accepted, it would be called "Dream Task of..."

its so refreshing to do this again

advanced: i fell asleep thinking of the task...
i was a male wolf running across a field. there were trees spaced sporadically throughout so at first i mistook it for a forest. galloping beside me was a female unicorn. i was already thinking of the task so i transformed into a human and leapt onto her back.(for somereason i was still a guy and naked :p i'm classifying this dream as half lucid cuz i didn't have full control.) after a little bit she told me she wanted to ride me so i transformed back into a wolf and she went into her human form landing on my back. she was also naked and we rode for a while until the dream switched into a crazy non lucid about mary kate and ashley. lmao totally random. very brief i know, hopefully my basic totm dream will be......more colorful? sorry bad i know...:9

Yay ray!

Did Basic/Advanced

>>>Ahhh crap wrong color.... meh<<<<

Asked myself what I was doing... became lucid.
I was in a Japanese-styled backyard with 2 wooden door, one is extremely small. I decided try and get through but I couldn't, decided to pull out a magical door outta nowhere. I was still at the same place...... probably.
I thought I'd a least do the TOTM for once, since it's pretty easy to do where I am. I visualized a ship warping out of the sky Tytania style. But that didn't work.... so I just "phased it" and a ship from the Free Planet Alliance from LotGH came out... of course I made it colored before hand, it was green....... all ships from the Free Planet Alliance are green anyways. and then I made another ship appear...... I'm not really familiar with it..... I think I just don't remember, but it was Half Green-Half red..... this counts right? Then to finish it off i summoned a giant .... Saucer? 3-4x the size of those little ships it was yellowish-gold... and then I flew into it.


Became lucid when prompted....... honestly I don't remember whee I was.... I think I was home..... no I was somewhere else. Walked in the streets and I imagined a unicorn walking....(running) by the intersection and it was there a WHITE PONY!!!no it was a unicorn.... I didn't pay that much attention I just grabbed on. and after a few steps the UNICORN stopped..... I find myself at the back of my home..... I willed my unicorn to fly By saying "FLY (UNICORN)"!!! Then it slowly levitated..... not really high.... i mean THAT high.... and I think that's where I lost track.

Gah, not sure I did any of these, had a false awakening on a sheet that had the colours, Then also found a unicorn, but she took on human form before I could ride her, Not sure piggy backing a unicorn in human form counts though ^^

Anyways, the dream is here

With only a few days to spare, I had a lucid dream and did the advanced task!

I was outside, I think in the snow. I'd become lucid some time ago, and I said aloud, "I am going to ride a unicorn." A strange-looking unicorn appeared in front of me, and I climbed on. I fell off a few seconds later, but technically I rode the unicorn.

I also tried the basic task, and I failed. Badly. So, I'm in a gym. I find a red panel on the floor, my shirt is blue, and then I look at the wall and I see... A GREEN PANEL! I didn't realize that green wasn't a primary color until I woke up. S**t! Whoa, whoa, whoa! I just read post 68 and found that the physics primary colors are red, blue, and green! ....If you still want the artistic primaries, the background was a yellow-tan color, I just didn't stare directly at it and point it out. Well... even if I didn't get the basic task, I got the unicorn!

Hi, I'm kind of new to this TOTM stuff but I completed the Basic TOTM

So last night, I came out of my LD dry spell (after eating a pb & banana sandwich ), and had my first LD in a while

I was standing in an unknown parking lot, beyond the parking lot were trees, it must have been fall in my dream because the trees were yellow and red. This dream was so vivid, the colors were very vibrant and everything was crystal clear. I wasn't standing here long until I realized I was dreaming, I don't know what made me become lucid but it happened. I instantly did a RC and it worked. So this being the first time being lucid for a while, I decided to get back in the swing of things, I instantly wanted to spawn something. I was so excited I didn't care what it was, first thing that came to mind was a pizza (i have absolutely NO idea why). But I focused on the ground in front of me and a pizza appeared, almost instantly which I was pleasantly surprised by. So now I decided to go have some fun, I turned around and saw a building , it was white with a red trim, very large like a mall or something. So I go into it and find my sister sitting at a table in a food court, I talk to her and ask her about the baby (she just had a boy a 2 weeks ago). She says "oh he's fine, he's out hunting with Cory (her boyfriend)" I just laughed.

After this I must have lost lucidity somewhat because I was standing in the food court for a while watching a guy in front of me. I looked back at my sister and she was gone, somehow this made me regain lucidity. All of sudden I remembered DV, which made me remember the Banana Sandwich . Then I remembered the TOTM, I was desperately looking for the colors in the food court, then I remembered the trees, red, yellow and the sky was blue Satisfied, woke myself up and wrote the dream down so I wouldn't forget.

Lol too bad I got it so late in the month

Pretty cool dream. I want a naked female human unicorn to ride on my back while I am in wolf form.

That's cool that you made it fly.

Mm... Pizza... oh huh? Good job. Try eating an inedible object in a dream, like a lamp, or take a bite from a car. It's really weird.

I know its late 0.o but im proud of myself anyways

"I wake up, and peek open my eyes and see something that resembles a spider and a porqupine
i Scream, at the limit of my voice and try to run, when i stand up and run i black out and fall over, i get back up and run.
i come back after i calm down to find a unicorn sitting next to my bed, i jump on and ride out of my house and ride to the moon to meet my friend"

I Really Hope I'm Dreaming, Woo! (DILD)



NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm in bed, and my mum woke me up and hit me a few times for some reason. I got out and had a shower, exactly like usual. I started drying myself but when I started brushing my teeth in front of the mirror, I got a serious shock. I saw that 2 of my teeth were mis-aligned, I was worried and felt them a bit and they fell out, along with a few others. I was kinda worried and thinking about going through the rest of my life missing some teeth, I really hoped it was a dream, I did a Nose Pinch RC, and to me delight, It was! I waved my hand over my mouth and my teeth were fine. I walked around my house for a while, seeing that this is one of the most stable lucids i've had, everything was exactly like my house. I talked to my mum, and asked, "Do you know where we are?" She said "The kitchen..." I told her she was wrong and that it's a dream, then I gave my dream mum a hug and goodbye. I remembered one of my goals was to talk to my reflection, I remembered that reflections can sometimes be scary or distorted, so I tested it with the small mirror from the bathroom. I peeked around the corner to see a distorted image on the mirror, so I was prepared, knowing that if I wasn't it could shock me into a nightmare. I went into the toilet because of it's bigger mirror, but, this was NOT my toilet. When I came in, it had ancient stone walls and floor, with vines growing on the walls and a giant skylight, an even bigger mirror hanging from the vines, and, of course, a toilet, hehe. The basic TOTM suddenly came to me and I looked in the mirror at the distorted picture, I had a RED shirt and black pants. I looked up at the skylight and saw the BLUE skies and YELLOW sun, BASIC TOTM COMPLETED. I looked back at my reflection and asked it if it could talk, it said "yep", but there was no sound, I just knew it said yep. I asked it why it couldn't talk, and it just said a bunch of things I couldn't make out. I stood back and tried to will giant speakers up, it didn't work, I then shouted out, LET THERE BE SOUND!!! It worked, but I don't remember what my reflection and I talked about. When I left the the err..."Toilet", I appeared to be in what looks like a D.I.Y store. I looked around and saw a lot of tools and wood and thought I might try and run through it wall, I ran full force and...crashed. I was on the ground with a slight headache when I saw a kinda creepy woman heading toward me, I just walked away. Next thing I know i'm at the school, running around and I super jumped over a row of benches and got a strawberry Big M at the canteen.

JUST!!!, my internet only JUST came back on
