      I completed basic ii a couple of nights ago.

      I was in an unfamiliar room getting ready for my audition. I wanted to hang up my coat in the wardrobe, but on my way I passed by an open closet in which something moved on its own. I concluded it must have been a ghost and was afraid to continue because in between the closet and the wardrobe was a mirror, and I remembered stories about people seeing scary figures, or appearing demonic themselves, in a mirror. But then I remembered that one of the TOTMs was too find a mirror and describe your reflection, and I wanted to do it. I decided I would not let my fear control me and proceeded to walk in front of the mirror and look into it. At that moment, it turned into a distorted 50s-style television. When I saw my reflection, I looked like myself (or at least my dream self thought so), except that my left eye looked weird. It was kinda swollen and also pale, like a blind person's eye.

      Completed basic ii twice, basic i, and failed with advanced i twice

      I remember 3 of the TOTM and have a great clarity of mind. This worries me because I feel that this is end of the REM and I am going to wake up soon. I approach Brendan, but he has transformed into some ugly older dude, who is being engaged by two other DCs on a bench. That irritates me and I try to get his attention, with little success. I notice a small puddle on the floor and decide to look at my image there. At the same time, while walking towards the puddle I consider if I should take my clothes off, and I stretch my T-shirt a bit. I think that not being able to see for a while will disconnect me from the dream, so I abandon the task and concentrate on my image in the water. I am pleasantly surprised to see that it is actually me there, looking quite nice, and smiling. Normal clothes and hair. It seems that I am talking as I am thinking this because as I do, I see the image’s mouth move exactly in accordance with my thoughts/words. I find this fascinating, but soon I feel my real lips moving and I am back in my bed.
      I consider checking whether the elevator works but enter in a restroom instead...I become lucid. There is a mirror just in front of me, so I take advantage of the opportunity and check my appearance. My hair is a bit darker and my image makes grimaces. I think that I don’t want to be stuck here too long to avoid waking up, so I leave the restroom. The station is still there, and I want to talk gibberish to a DC, so I turn to a DC guy and say the sentence “I am talking gibberish”, but muffle the sound so it become something like “Mmm tokah gee-ummmsh” and look for his reaction. He doesn’t seem to understand what I am saying and I am disappointed with his reaction, so I repeat it two more times. He shyly smiles and looks away. Ah, he’s shy, I conclude, satisfied with the result.

      Then I decide to go with the next task, get naked. I look around and proudly announce to the surrounding DCs “I am going to get naked!” and watch faces of dismay. I concentrate on taking my clothes off, but it seems I have two layers, one fitting really tight. As I struggle to take them off, the dream fades away and I am back in bed.

      Awesome job NyxCC! I'm impressed at how you kept your focus and goal-orientation throughout the dreams to keep from waking up. And the fact that you kept remembering the different tasks was remarkable. Congratulations!

      Idk what you're talking about. I was referring to the naked task. BTW menthol tends to cause sexual dreams.

      Thanks OB! It was one of the best days for my prospective memory.

      @ OB, Xanous. I am more for causing DCs distress but I can easily see this turning to a horny DV month.

      I've had this annoying habit of getting lucid right before waking up the last few days. It's like, "Hey, this is a dream...what's that, the alarm clock?"

      Actually, that acronym is reserved for Phlegm Induced Lucid Dream™, a tech that I recently invented. Besides, a true procrastinator wouldn't just come up with a new acronym at the drop of a hat.

      It must be catching, I had the whole family reunion in a house and everybody including me was naked from the waist down but had long shirts or something else on top........

      I managed to accidentally lucid for a moment and found a mirror. I was wearing my black cardigan, shirt, and blue jeans! I can't remember anything else, like deformities if there were any though

      I had a nonlucid the other day, where I and 2 other people were showering in front of a class. The shower curtain was only semi-circular, and the open part was toward the class. We were all 3 naked of course, with the class observing us. I remember feeling more uncomfortable about feeling bloated or something, like I had just had a big meal. But the naked part didn't bother me so much.

      So at least I'm thinking naked. It's so great that more and more of us are doing it too

      Its too early in the month for wings and spoil the fun but I though this was odd enough to post .
      6/07
      8:30am I came out of the bathroom at Pete'n Kate's bar back in the 70's and Black Nick and my brother were sitting at the end of the bar and yelled out my name and I had to go talk to them and then I started to wake up but went back to sleep in a DEILD and wound up in my own bathroom in front of the mirror with only tunnel vision and it was focused on the sink and the mirror only as far up as my shoulders and it was very vivid. I had on the same speckled blue tee shirt I wore to bed and there were a number of non bathroom items on the sink but not the shaving cream can I knew I had left there and I wanted to see my face in the mirror but my eyes wouldn't go up so I backed away and it started to fade and I said more clarity and the whole me appeared in the mirror very white and naked and then faded to darkness and I woke up...
      I love a good mirror and usually pass thru them to another land and time but I was waking up dammit.....Now I feel an adventure coming on and need return to the mirror

      I've stayed away from mirrors in dreams ever since I saw something creepy...I was trying to prove to a witch who was following me around this abandoned and crumbling building that it was a dream or something, so I went up to a mirror (since I heard that your reflection in dreams can be distorted/disfigured) to prove it to her. I looked at my shoes, they were dress shoes, kind of cute, all ok, I was wearing some sort of dark plaid skirt with a small satchel, not too bad, but then I looked at my face-my reflection was grinning, teeth bared, but the smile was unnatural. It was evil looking and was turned sharply at the corners in a "U" shape. My eyes looked like they had been made of play-doh. they were a grayish white, molded into a "u" with a large black dot stuck in the middle of it, angling up so it looked like my disfigured eyes were looking up. I NOPED out of there, screaming "I'M SORRY OH GOSH I'M SORRY I'M SORRY". Basic Task II might be a no for me..

      I did the TOTM basic task (ii) yesterday - accidentally!

      I look on the wall to the right where I see a reflection of my head/face in profile off the glass in this framed picture in monochrome/greyscale. (I looked a touch younger.)

      My dreams seemed intent on throwing opportunities at me last night (a dream set at work), which I completely failed to take advantage of, anyway I had two lucids and completed the basic ii task:

      Always, no sometimes think it's me,
      But you know I know when it's a dream
      I think I know I mean a yes
      But it's all wrong
      That is I think I disagree
