Haven't had much dreaming luck the last two days, only some very short false awakening-like things. I'm gonna try and set my alarm to wake up after about 5 or 6 hours, let's hope that'll do the trick.
Reports so far are great, guys :)

Had a DILD during a nap yesterday. I like how I GOT lucid, but I'm frustrated with how I thought about totms but couldn't remember them.
So I hit on this website and this tasks and decided to directly giving them a try!:wink:
I did the first basic task last night but it wasn´t as exciting as I hoped...
I was suddenly in school again wich confused me because I have holidays for like a week now and a moment later I knew this had to be a dream. Just for fun I looked at my fingers and I saw eight of them. For some reason I had some fun with it and tried to do a 'most fingers at one hand' - world record and failed pretty much. When I had 11 fingers at one hand further tries of manipulation just rebuild my hand in weird way so that it looked nearly scary. But then I remembered my task an went down the stairs where I found a woman. I just asked her for a word in a different language but she seemed to be a bit...dense wich forced me to explain it all again.:cheeky: But then she finally understood and said with a little delay 'nicht'. Then I asked what that means in our language and she answered with the same unsure delay 'not'. 'Yay, that is right!' I answered in an ironic way because this was nothing new for me and the woman was just plain dense... Originally I wanted to get a new magic spell from her but I refused when I saw her first confused reaction.:D
Well, that is it for this task. Lets go on to the next!

I got into a WILD via a huge head sensation. Like falling backwards while a waterfall flowing through my head.
I did one ToTM, which now I can't remember. But I remember recapping it in my LD, before remembering the "Pull your eye out" ToTM.
Just before bed, I practiced getting naked, pulling out my green banana (don't want a ripe mushy banana as a weapon) and robbing a bank while yelling "this is a stickup! Gimme all your lucid dreaming vouchers".
Then I practiced getting naked and pulling my eye out. I said this is gonna be gross, and I proly don't wanna do this one.
So after recapping my ToTM, I remembered the "pull your eye out." I put fingers of my right hand around my eye and pushed in slightly while thinking "this is not gonna work". Grabbed the eyeball and pulled it out. My hand is kinda closed and I'm thinking again that it didn't work. But I see a shiny white ball with black dot in size of a pupil between my fingers. I'm totally surprised. (I have also practiced putting the eye behind me and looking at my butt) but I kinda lose it here and don't remember what happened next.
Hahaaaaaaaaaaa :buns:Quote:

:offtobed: Ok... it's time to go to sing to Sophie "Light my Fire" out of the castle :tongue:...
Basic I:
I'm flying and looking everything from the clouds, I notice this is a dream and began falling through the smoky-white clouds until a new dream scene is formed. I thought I was going to wake up because everything was white for what seems a long time, but suddenly I'm inside the new dream scene: public toilet.
I see there's a kid in there and I ask him to tell me a word in a different language, he says "sanchuanfei"... I asked him to repeat it again because it's a long word for me to understand, then I also asked about the meaning and he answered "it means: two children peeing", lol!!, wtf??!, I noticed it wasn't just a word then, but a sentence... and because I'm afraid of forgetting the sentence I looked for another DC to ask. A young lady appears and when I asked her for the foreign word she answered "purple"... which I know the meaning... what I have to say in my favor is that I dream in spanish...so purple still counts :D
AAAAHAhahahahaaaaaaQuote:

Diiiddd ittttt! :D :D
I had three lucids last night, and had to get up before 7 because I was too excited about all the lucidity and task completion to sleep anymore. I completed Basic I, not too sure about Basic II but I think it counts.
Basic I excerpt:
Quote:
"Hey! Hey you!" they turned around and walked up to the gate to my garden.
"Give me a word in a foreign language!", I said, hoping I'd remember once they did, and hoping they won't turn out to be unhelpful DC's.They were what looked like a group of students - I think there were four, a girl, two guys of average height and one tall guy, standing at the back. The tall guy spoke in a friendly tone:
"Rystkievin". At least I'm pretty sure it was Rystkievin, I made an effort to remember it. I repeated it to be sure, and he did also, nodding. The "vin" part was pronounced in the French way of pronouncing "vin".
"What does it mean?", I asked.
"Everyone has a right to fair play.", he said. A DC that actually talked sense. Wow. I can actually imagine how there would be a foreign word or expression to mean that kind of thing.
I thanked the DC's and they walked away.
Basic II excerpt:
Both full dreams are written up in my dream journal: Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views - Mystycal - Dream JournalsQuote:
"Rob the bank with a BANANA", I thought, and looked around. Behind me there was what looked like a massive inflatable banana lying on the floor. I grabbed it with my right hand and made a magical gesture with my left, shrinking the banana to normal size and properties - it now looked exactly like a regular banana, only I didn't think to taste it. I went into the building and went behind this counter. Behind the cashier's place I could see the entrance to the bank vault - it was like I was looking at a mini bank of some sort.
There was no cashier. Wielding the banana, I went up to the till (which was conveniently left wide open) and pocketed a handful of notes, so technically I did steal from a bank, even though I didn't rob the vault. I turned and saw my dad, who was holding some kind of keyring thing with a button on it. He pressed it.
"Now we will see if they respond. You better not have stolen that money."
I pushed past him and ran out of the door. Alarms went off. He started talking about how I will never amount to much and how the best thing I ever did was join a church choir and how at that point he thought I was going to grow up into a good person but I disappointed him. Amused, but wanting to run away from the police, I went left out of the door and sprinted into the bushes. I ran through a wooded bit and came out onto an asphalt road - there was a black audi coming down it.
It occurred to me that it was an unmarked police car, but I kept running. They turned on their lights and sirens and drove down the road in my direction. They stopped about 5 metres away from me.
"Stay the f**k away, I have a f***ing banana!", I screamed, and I held up my banana. The policemen looked terrified.
"S**t, another psycho bank robber!" shouted one of them.
I turned around and kept running through a little grassy square. The dream dissolved around me and I woke up, at 6:50am, having had three lucid dreams and being unable to go back to sleep because I managed to complete two TotMs and had three lucids before it was even anywhere close to my usual wake up time.
Sooo - comp is over - which is really sad, was such great fun, but now back to basics:
Hm - what am I going to do - I guess, the first one - looking forward to finding interesting meanings, lets see, what my uncon throws at me!Quote:
Basic Task i - Ask a DC to tell you a word in a different language and its meaning. - kilham
Basic Task ii - Rob a bank using only a banana as your weapon. - INeverWakeUp

5 minute dream
This happened between my last 5 minute snooze on my alarm clock (9:55am to 10am)
I was in my bedroom, and I wanted to get some air flowing inside the room since it was really stuffy. I cracked my window open, but snow from outside started rushing in. This was a problem. If I left the windows closed, it was going to get hot in here. But if I left them open, my carpet was going to get wet. I settled on an illogical intermediate of cracking the window open no more than a couple millimeters.
I went downstairs and started talking to my mother. She said that there was supposed to be some really bad storms today. I drank something, and went back upstairs. This time, I was in my bedroom at school. I sat down on the bed, and noticed that it was getting really dark outside. It was only morning, but it was almost as dark as night time outside. I decided it was time to turn on the light.
I walked over to the light switch to flip it on, but nothing happened. I wondered if the storm had caused us to lose power. Yet, lights never work when I am dreaming, so I did a reality check - dreaming. I had some things that I had been wanted to do, but right now I was drawing a total blank. I remembered the Task of the Month - gauge your eyeballs out. I did one last reality check to absolutely confirm that I was dreaming before I did this. I stuck my fingers into my eye sockets and felt around. First of all - yuck. Second, OUCH. IT HURT. Like, really fucking bad. Despite the pain, I kept going but I couldn't see shit. Well, I saw the color red. Maybe that was supposed to be blood. So in the process of gauging out my eyeballs, I blinded myself. Great.
I stuck my eyeballs back in and thought about what I wanted to do next. I thought about doing another task of the month, but I couldn't remember any of the other ones. I remembered the elevator one from last month, but then remembered that I had promised my wolf pack that I would shapeshift and help find a good place for us.
I jumped out the window and was instantly in the middle of an absolutely beautiful field. There were yellow flowers growing in the field and an old farm house at the very end. To the left was a flowing stream and there were lambs nearby, too. I shapeshifted into a wolf and started running across the field. I've never shapeshifted into a wolf before, so this was a new experience for me. I could feel that my back legs were significantly more powerful than my front legs. It took a minute, but then I realized how to coordinate them to run powerfully like a wolf. This was really a beautiful place! But the lambs were very distracting. And tasty looking.
I decided that it was time for the hunt.
I began to stalk my prey, slowly inching closer. When I was at a reasonable distance, I leaped forward and sunk my teeth into the lamb...at which point my alarm clock went off. :(
hahahaha, but i'm not a children!, I'm 28...almost getting to the third floor, but actually there was another children there...
Yeah...it surely was my chinese-stuffed subconscious for being in China last month, I'm just missing the accents, which was something like: sānchuánfči... or sānchuǎnfči... nevermind... f**k** difficult chinese...
It's a chaos... it depends on the pronunciation, accents, it could really mean lots of other things indeed!
I had a DILD, and again, I'm so happy how I got lucid because I obeyed a common dream sign (snow in the summer). But when I started to reach for my eyeball, and it felt a bit like a loose tooth, I woke up. But it was during a nap, and nap-lucid-lengths are unpredictable for me.
I am happy though at my recent ability to get dream signs. If you conquer that, potentially EVERY non lucid could become a lucid. Anyway, congrats all you guys so far! Great lucids. Sorry about the gore there Zukin O_O
