Thread: Task of the Month for January 2013

Last night I froze a pool haha. So close!

I'd like to try the the Basic i task. Even though I have no idea how to iceskate, I'll experiment…

Great tasks! I like the extreme winter sports idea. Maybe the ski jump, off a really high cliff? Sounds like a blast.

Awesome . These will be fun to try xD.

Started out my year with a Lucid Dream, hopefully I will be able to keep it up this month!

I think I'll end up getting the sport one, since I've played hockey quite a bit in dreams, but have never played in real life.

Started the year with the amazing disappearance of my recall -_- Hope it will return soon.

Cool tasks. It's been a while, but I'm going to give these a shot!

Woo! Completed the Basic Task #2!
Here is the important excerpt which I haven't even posted yet:

I became lucid and (amazingly) remembered the lucid task that I was aiming to accomplish, which was to ask a DC the number between 1 and 100 that I was thinking of. I walked up to the nearest DC and asked him the fated question. Sadly he just gave me a weird look and walked away. Stupid uncooperating DCs . Anyways with my dream self being satisfied I left

After this I actually had a FA where I explained the dream to my dad. Urgh could have had two lucids in one night. Ah well

...I failed the Basic task i. I got distracted and left...

Wow... this has changed so much after a year!

Where is that amazing On-topic admin that I passed my On-topic admin title?

Nice to meet you OpheliaBlue

I will work on these.

I completed the second basic task and the second advanced task last night. I think it went better than I was expecting over all.

Basic Task ii; Advanced Task ii (January 1, 2013) - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Wow, another two hitter that I just woke up from.

I was walking through the back yard and found a large pond, but didn't think anything of it. Walking back toward the house I became lucid and remembered tasks of the month, so I walked back toward the pond. I said I wanted it to be frozen and it turned to ice. I raised each foot up and my shoes turned to ice skates and I skated across to the other side. Then I wanted to play hockey, but I was by myself and I commented that I wished we could get a game going. Then some people came out of the woods with two goals, sticks, and pucks, and we set everything up and got a hockey game going. I scored a couple goals and then my wife woke me up.

Wow that's some nice dream control you got there.

And I can tell you that is not normally the case. I was pretty determined this time around though. I was even telling myself that I hoped I didn't wake up too soon.

I head over there and find there is a man standing near what looks like a row of fireworks ready to go. He tells me I shouldn't be there. I decide to flirt with the guy instead of starting trouble… He isn't very attractive, my dream self is attractive… so I figure it would work well. I tell him I wanted to see how the magic happens, then we can watch the fireworks together. He pushes his luck and says he knows a private place we could go afterwards. I swallow my vomit and act like I like the idea. So I get closer to the fireworks. I hear the man who is Ezio's target talking, it sounds like quite a stream of bullshit. Apparently politicians have always been the same. So now it needs to go off. I ask when he sets them off. He says after the speech is done. I look closer at the fuses, and focus a little pyrokinesis to light them each. The fuses are all lit so I step away quickly. The man notices that the fuses are lit and asks what I have done, it's too soon! He says they were supposed to go off AFTER the speech! I tell him he said during the speech… he is frustrated… but it is too late now. The fireworks all go off at once, shooting up into the sky and exploding with quite a commotion. I look back out at the guy giving the speech, he is now staring up at the fireworks looking quite annoyed. The man who was supposed to set off the fireworks seems more worried about himself, says they're going to kill him for this… no… they'll have to find him first… he disappears into the crowd, who are all looking up at the fireworks now. I don't notice when it happens, but when I look back over at the guy giving the speech, and he is on the ground, apparently dead. None of his guards have even noticed yet. I find their obliviousness amusing then I wake up.

So I'm not sure if just setting off the fireworks counts... or if I have to create them like Gandalf in Lord of the Rings. If this counts, great, if not, back to the drawing board! Let me know.

I should think it would count, you lit the fuses after all

Sounds awesome! (^_^) I think I tried to freeze a body of water looong ago. I'll try this with a lake I visited last month. <3 Can I also do the 2nd basic task in the same dream, or does it have to be a different one?

It can be in the same dream. It's the tasks of the year that have to be separate dreams

I see my avatar has wings on it... was I wrong in assuming I had to do both parts of a task before it was counted completed? Been trying for a winter sport, I just haven't had any recall the past couple nights.

Doh! That was my bad, I forgot I made that task have two parts.

And I don't have half-a-wing for you, sorry

Almost did it last early this morning! I was living in a castle near a lake or sea (never got to find out), and there were invaders closing in under the cover of night. Although I was not lucid during those parts, only in the fighting, and I can barely see anything (usually happens when I dream early morning and the light is shining through the window).

I read about the tasks yesterday and somehow I remembered it in my dream.
I was driving but I couldn't gain speed. I found that very odd and did my reality checks. Suddenly my mother was sitting next to me in my car. I asked her which number I was thinking about. She immediately said '22'.

I've been reading this forum for a while but because of this lucid dream last night I decided it's time to join.

It's cool. I'll keep trying for the other part.
