Thread: Task of the Month for March 2013

SO CLOSE on one of the Advanced tasks, but I didn't make it

An excerpt from this morning's journal, Treasure Hunting With Dwarves:

I decide to go treasure hunting. I reach into my back pocket - for some reason, I'm wearing a skirt with pockets - and feel around for a map. I feel crumpled paper and tug. I pull out a sheet of notebook paper, folded in half several times, and unfold it. There is a map on it, scribbled in blue pen, but I can't read what it says. It also has little pictures. I decide that I need to go find a dream character who CAN read it, and if I'm going to treasure hunt, I'm going to do it in style - which means having a whole group of treasure hunters with me.

I walk toward the food court - well, an archway I have decided is the food court. The floor slopes downward between it in a ramp, heading underground. I can see tables in the distance. I decide that's kind of boring and want it to be something more exciting. As I approach, it morphs into a Viking style beer hall. I'm pretty satisfied - this is definitely more fun.

I enter the beer hall, which is smokey and full of warriors eating and drinking. There is an empty space in the middle with a fire-pit that looks like it's used by entertainers - wrestlers, musicians, etc. The benches on either side are elevated on steps, sort of like bleachers, so everybody can see. Nobody is performing right now, though.

I see a group of 5 or 6 Tolkein-style Dwarves over to one side. They look like they're having a pretty good time. I approach them and introduce myself. Their leader is a pretty buff looking Dwarf. He has long, thick braided brown hair and is wearing a sort of heavy brown leather harness that has what looks like a lion's mane stitched around the neck and shoulders. He greets me respectfully:
"I am Lokmin, son of (I can't remember his dad's name)." He thumps his chest (which is more Roman, I guess, but whatever).
I hold out my treasure map. "I've found a map to potential treasure, but it might be dangerous."
The Dwarves deliberate over my wrinkled sheet of notebook paper, making sounds of interest and approval. Lokmin looks like he's about to make the decision to follow me...

But unfortunately, we never got to find the treasure. I live near an airport - one of the EXTREMELY LOUD jets that I LOATHE flies overhead, waking me up and ending my lucid dream.

Nothing in the note task for me I don't think, I tried every conceivable way and it just wont fizz. I put it on the computer screen and left it up overnight and I had no Idea even what I wrote on it in my dream, it wasn't there at all. I put it on the toilet tank and it wasn't there. I put it on the desk and then folded it up and held it in my hand sleeping and nothing, Finally in desperation I wrote it on my hand and still nothing although I did have a really cool looking hand with crooked stubby fingers but for some reason I couldn't count them.
I think prolly no two people are going to be anywhere near the same on this quest........

Man, you ain't just whistlin' Dixie!

Hi Everyone I haven't been on this forum for quite a while but am very interested in partaking in these tasks.*
This is a Lucid from my Dream Journal I had on the 16th of this Month....Basic Task 1.

I realise I'm dreaming and want to test Telekinesis like in the film Chronicle, I've toyed with it before but could only get smaller things to levitate.*
I'm inside a house and see a metal bin, the type we used to have at school and I put my hand out towards it and think lift, which it does.*
I then slowly clench my open hand into a fist and the bin starts to warp and crush in a very realistic way.*
I drop the bin and go outside where I see a pick up truck so put both *hands out this time and think lift which again it does.*
I start to slowly clench my hands into fists and it starts to crush but only the weaker parts of the truck like the edges of the windows and grill, things like that.
I think it's not going to work like this so start pulling my arms together slowly as well as clenching my fists and the truck starts to crush, big time.
It concertinas all the way down the sides, the windows blow out and it feels very realistic and feels very cool too.*
I crush it to a big sort of ball shape and let it fall in front of me.*
I then push it to feel the weight and it's very heavy like it should be.*

I go into a pub and look at the pool table.
I then lift 2 pool balls from it and using the same technique start to crush them.*
They crack at first, then as I clench my fists tightly they shatter into a thousand pieces.*

Had a good and lengthy lucid dream but completely forgot about advanced TOTM for some reason, oh well, guess i'll start preparing for next TOTMs and the competition.

I understand it's too late for it to mean much now, when it's going to be April in just a couple hours, but I forgot to mention that I did the second beginner goal the other night!

I wrote down that dream physically so I don't have it on my DV dream journal, but basically I was in a group of refugees and we were journeying to a safe place after our previous settlement had been bombed. The sun had just set under the trees and the sky on that side was red, yellow and orange. I remembered about the goal and approached someone in the group, and said something like, "hey...if you could have anything, what's your greatest wish in the whole world?"

They looked at me and said, "well, honestly.. you."

I was quite surprised

Ready Your Recall Y'all!! April tasks are a'comming..
