      Task of the Month for June 2013


      Introduction:
      This topic is for the Lucid Tasks that are assigned by the Lucid Task Club and the On-Topic Administrator. Please attempt any or all of these tasks throughout the month.

      Report back in this thread, even if you didn't successfully accomplish the task. Your efforts should make interesting reading! This is required in order to get credit, it is no longer sufficient just to say that you did it.

      When you complete a task: go to your control panel, then to permission groups, and request to be in the group that applies to the task that you've done: either a basic or an advanced or both (specify in the description field if it was the bonus task). Of course you still need to post the dream here because we check.


      Whoever completes any of these tasks gets the following goodies until the end of the month:
      • Your name will be displayed in ORANGE in the online members list at the bottom of the main forum page.
      • You will receive a special title and badge.
      • You will receive access to the "Lucid Task Club" which is a limited access forum for people that complete a lucid task each month. Members of this club can submit suggestions for the next month's tasks.

      Tasks for this month:

      Basic Task i - Start talking to a DC in gibberish. See how they respond.
      Basic Task ii - Find a mirror and describe your reflection.

      Advanced Task i - Visit school/work (somewhere that you'll have an audience) naked.
      Advanced Task ii - Find an ocean and go parasailing.

      BONUS TASK!! - Find a dinosaur egg, then sit on it and hatch it. Describe what hatches.

      Right on, I like the basic tasks.

      I think I'll shoot for the public nudity. Hopefully some hilarious DC reactions.

      Aw, haven't got to complete anything previous month.
      I'll try my best this month though, surely will be able to do basic 2 at least, though does it necessarily have to be mirror or just any kind of reflection?

      Done!

      I've been trying to complete a TOTM for years and today I completed a basic and advanced task!!! Woo hoo!! And so soon after reading the thread too I'm so excited and happy.

      This is the first LD I've had since January where I have had anything other than black fuzzy dreamscapes and constant FAs so all together it was a pretty amazing dream, one of my best lucids yet.


      I found myself lucid after a WBTB. First I thought about the tasks from last month because I've been focusing on them but then realized they had changed so stopped trying to lay an egg I immediately decided to do the naked task. I was a bit worried I wasn't dreaming and I'd embarrass myself because it felt so real but my nose RC was working. I jumped out of my bedroom window and did some acrobatics on the tree in front of my house on the way down. I was already naked. There were loads of my neighbors in their gardens and some of my work colleagues too. I started dancing around in front of them saying 'woo I'm naked' but they acted like they couldn't see me. A child from my neighbors house said 'Someone is invisible' and started trying to catch me. I was annoyed that they couldn't see me. They all started waving their arms around to find where I was. One of my colleagues grabbed my arm and I ran away from her. I then got pulled into a FA but wasn't fooled.
      I then got straight out of bed and wanted to try walking through a mirror which is something I've always wanted to try. I had just read the new TOTM thread and remembered the other task to look at your reflection. I got out of bed and walked up to the large mirror in the door of our wardrobe. I looked quite normal except I was a bit too 'shiny' and fake looking, Like a doll version of myself and I didn't have freckles... I was expecting something more strange and suddenly my wifes reflection jumped on all fours and looked like a demonic version of her with vampire teeth and awful evil eyes (In the dream she was sleeping in bed). When I turned around she was just lying on the bed normally. I wasn't scared because my lucidity was quite clear and I knew it wasn't real . I then proceeded to walk through the mirror into a new dreamworld which strangely enough turned out to be an outdoor electrical goods market - not at all where I wanted to go lol


      Oh I am still buzzing from my dream. Not only because I completed totm for the first time (a real goal of mine) but it was such an amazing dream. I was telling myself how good it would be to complete the task of the month in June because it's my birthday month. Maybe this is an early birthday present lol

      Well dang, Happy Early Birthday then Bellatrix!! What a great dream. I love it when I have a really great LD after a dry spell. Can't say I ever jumped right back into LDing with a double-hitter like that, so super congratulations!

      Any reflective surface will be fine.

      Finally got my first TOTM

      I was shooting to have a lucid dream last night via WBTB/MILD but i couldn't fall asleep and ended up staying up until 4am. I finally got to sleep however and was at work in my dream and nothing seemed right. Everything was misplaced and people who usually work there weren't there. So i did a reality check and realized I was dreaming. I immediately decided to try the basic task 2, so I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. I looked very young and had long hair like I did a few years ago. What was weird though is that i had no teeth and a really wide smile even though I wasn't smiling. My eyes were blue (they're usually brown) anyway after I looked in the mirror I felt accomplished and carried on with my dream.

      I'm so exited to be finally having lucid dreams way more commonly (4 in May) and can't wait to try more of these tasks!

      This is weird, I read the tasks then napped and non-lucid dreamed how odd it was that you found this appear naked task because in lucid dreams if im playing the part in the dream I don't look at myself and if I do I'm neeked as a jaybird and DC's pay it no mind. Then on the other foot if I'm sitting back smugly watching myself dream I'm fully dressed.....And then the phone rang and blew it to hell, It would have been fun to have seen how it ended

      PS: How about when a thread ends post a link-back to the next month so we don't have to navigate to it.......

      I had my first well controlled lucid dream. I used the FILD method and had a false awakening where I did a reality check and became lucid. Without even thinking about what to do I went into my bathroom and looked right at the light in attempt to make everything more clear. Then I looked at myself in the mirror and my hair was spiked straight up (my hair has gotten pretty long because I've been growing it out). I was also making this weird face. Unfortunately I could not remember any of the other tasks.

      Seems like basic i and advanced i could be done at the same time. That could be interesting.

      I try to make them where you could do 2 or more in the same dream easily. You could do the naked one and talk gibberish in the same dream for a fun time and double wings

      I plan to get naked in front of a mirror, go to work, find a dino egg on my chair, hatch it, talk gibberish to the cute little dino baby, make it grow to a giant sea creature and parasail behind it into the sunset. Because that's just how I roll.

      P.S.: I love all the tasks this month. Last month there were two that I couldn't see myself doing, but these are great.

      Sorry for this post, but is there a better way to remember the tasks while lucid? I planned to be naked at work, and also speak gibberish to my brother. Killing 2 birds with 1 stone; It turns out last night i became lucid in a dream that took place at my workplace and my brother was there as my assistant, but when i thought of what i had to do, my mind came up totally blank, so i just left the scene.

      No apologies necessary, it's not uncommon to be a bit, "I'm lucid YEAH! Oh wait, now what were those tasks again?" In fact, sometimes I get a little confused and remember a previous month's tasks, but not the current ones. Anyway, I have found a great way to solve this in just a couple simple steps:

      1. Every night before bed, commit to memory a couple goals or TOTMs. I usually pick 2. It's especially helpful to link them together, just like you did.

      2. Then, (and this is super important), when you WBTB, force yourself to remember those 2 goals/tasks before going back to sleep. Even imagine how they will play out. Keep them in mind as you drift off. When you get lucid next, your goals will be right there already, in the forefront of your mind. It might take a moment to recap, but you'll get them, because you prepared.

      Good luck and let us know how your coworkers think of you naked!

      This is really interesting now I can actually have fun and do challenges in my dreams then to just walk around wondering what I can do. I did the dinosaur egg task and turns out it was a really cute blue dragon that breathes ice instead of fire. It grew really big, trapped me in a giant ice block and then I had to slay my dragon. Next im going to try going to the white house naked.
