I am playing an arcade game called "The Key", which is a little game where if you can put the key through the slot, you push something valuable out, such as an ipod or a 3DS. I play it and end up winning a deluxe handheld Tetris game. I didn't recall it was one of the prizes being offered, so I did a RC, but my hand looked exactly the same as it did in real life. I knew that couldn't be right, so I tried again. This time, the head, life, and love lines on my hand were completely missing. So, with perfect confidence that it was a dream, I walked out my house out onto the front yard. A DC kid was playing with a rubber ball, and bouncing it against the wall, and he asked me, "Do you think we should be quieter?". I said, "No, this isn't real, this is a dream, so it doesn't matter." He then asked me "If this isn't real, then what's your definition of reality?" I shrug my shoulders and walk away, remembering that I had a note to find. All of a sudden the dream goes black, but I'm still there. I rip a note out of my left pocket, after unsuccessfully searching my right, but it's so dark I can't read it. I recalled something from the 'Post your reaction when you become lucid' thread, something about "anchoring yourself to the dream by touching something", so I grab onto a tree and everything comes back into focus, with the DC now bouncing the ball loudly against the window.
The sticky note was not written by me, but I was looking for it, and when I opened it it seemed like a normal sticky note, but it grew to the size of a piece of paper and read:
"When in the course of.....dissolve the political bands....powers of the earth..." (When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of Nature and Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind require that they declare the causes which impel the to the separation.) Wow, I am such a nerd.
And underneath, in crisscrossing lattices it read something like this:
derp headphones taekwondo tetris treble guitar LOL penguins turtles
Oh, and the note originally read:
Use roads Penn and May (in Vietnamese)
After reading the note, I realized it might not count, since I didn't write it, so I fished into my left back pocket, which was empty, and my last pocket, which had a piece of paper which I knew was the old scoresheet from an academic team meet that I had written my note on.
I look at it, and where the names should be written, it was blank, and where the note should have been written there was nothing. Oh well, at least I found it.
I walk back over to the DC,who now has friends, and he asks me to "Show him your moves," and points to a shorter DC. Now, I decide it's a great time to see if DCs are really invincible or not, so I try some basic Jujitsu on him. After a particularly violent technique in which I locked his elbow and pushed him towards the floor before suddenly wrenching his arm in the other direction, he lay screaming in agony. It does hurt, but it shouldn't have hurt that much. I kind of felt sorry for him, though.
At this point, I wake up and realize that in the real world, I've only had five hours of sleep, and I go back to sleep with no further misadventures.
