Thread: Lucid Task For The Month Of August 2005

lol, well its the closest thing i can relate it too.

Well since i rarely have internet connection i will submit my experience.
It was nothing special to be honest.It started as a normal dream but at some point i don't know why, I realized it was a dream, so I became lucid.I was standing on the road, so I yelled out my real name.2 cars passed by, nothing else happened.
I can't remember the whole dream sadly.

I had this dream a couple of days ago btw.

Greets!

I read this last night and before going to sleep I said ok im going to try this... Im new to the site as you can see, but not new to lucid dreaming..

So here goes..

I kept waking up a few times during the night (coz im sick and coughing).. and ive been eager to do things suggested in the site... so finally... i was going back to one of my old schools... im supposed to register for a class to keep me occupied during my stay in manila... as I was looking for the office, the first thing I shouted was a friend's name "Joanna", as i recognized her, then got into a conversation with her.. Then I kept walking looking for the office, and when I opened the door, 3 girls and a schoolboy was looking at me.. first i said shyly, "My name is (my entire full name!!!)"... and they we're like, "What?". So I said very loudly, "My name is (my entire full name!!)". Then I realised yay I said my name!! Then my dream jumped into the class dismissal!

The dream is quite long (about 45 mins - well when i woke up to check the time to my alarm time), i've just written down the part with the shouting the name! My dream continued on by the way... until it was time to get up and get ready for work!

Interesting, My dream continued after shouting my name as well. I guess we have busted that myth, eh?

.
1 myth down. Thanks Seeker

Yay, I did it! Here's the excerpt from my dream journal:

I remembered to do the task of the month. I try to scream my name, but it barely comes out. I tried three or four times, and put it off. I would scream louder when I was in doors and not by my dad.

I gave it another shot, and I scream "My name is ***** *****!!!!!" six times before I like the way it sounds. It had a hint of The Outsider (A Perfect Circle) in it, when he screams "Such a mess, over this, OVER THIIIIIIISSS!!!!!". On the tenth try or so I really liked how it sounded.

Then a girl starts calling out my name. I finally find her. She takes me into a building and wants me to participate in this challenge. I start doing the challenge, but decide it's stupid and want to check more things off my LD checklist.

I also wanted to do September's task too. But then I remembered the "advanced" task was a more difficult one, rather than a provided early than expected task...Darn.

I did this last night; it was just a great feeling! I had never tried a task before. I was fighting with school administration about a class I missed that was preventing me from graduating. And I remembered I graduated and that I was dreaming, and the first thing I did was yell my name( several times and very loud), nothing strange or weird happened everyone just stared at me, then I violated every girl in sight.

how come DCs just stare back huh??

I screamed out my name while flying around among rooftops. I thought that it was a good thing because I am usually afraid to even speak at all in dreams, so this task built my confidence in that area . My voice always sounds strange in a dream, kind of like it is coming in through cheap speakers or something. I always sound like I did when I was a little kid, too.

I did this a few nights ago...

First I shouted my name several times - nothing was happening, and then I had a false awakening. The awakening was very realistic - I did a nose-pinch RC about 5 times in a row because I couldn't believe that I was dreaming. I finally accepted it, and then shouted my name again. A voice responded with some sort of quotation that began with my name. I did the same thing again, and the voice responded with a different quotation. Unfortunately I can't remember what the quotations were...

I tryed it but it came out really quiet then I woke up, i've never been able to talk that well in my LD's.

Ok....I did it...not very interesting results...but none the less, it was amazing like any other lucid experience. The night before last, I went to sleep around 11:30, woke up at 4:30, watched a movie till 6, and then did a WILD. After the first few initial minutes of the dream I remembered the lucid task and suddenly everything around me went black (the void), I started to yell my name, had trouble at first, and then was able to loudly shout it out to the void, as I yelled music and color appeared swirling around me. I marveled at that for a moment and then continued on my lucid dream. I shall try this again some other time though and document what results I get.
