Thread: Lucid Task for the Month of July 2007

I re-did the DV Member task, since I wanted to meet somebody in particular. The entire journal entry can be found in my DJ.

23 Bright Braid Street

"I am dreaming!" I told myself. I looked in my hands and saw my car keys. I held them both hands, and jingled them up and down. This worked really well as an anchor to the dream, much like hand-rubbing. They also looked really interesting... sort of a swirl of shiny metal as they moved around.

I had been joking with Twoshadows for awhile about going on a dream date at a malt shop, so I really wanted to conjure her up. I started calling out for her, but then I remembered someone here had recently suggested going to a house and ringing the bell to find someone.

I found a quaint little blue house with a little porch. On the house was a little wooden sign with the number "23" and a word on it. I'm not 100% sure I remember this correctly, but I think the word was "Being." I knocked twice on the door, and rang the doorbell, which was on the wrong side of the door. Someone opened the door, and I asked if Twoshadows were there. I could hear someone talking from another level down, and I knew it was her. She came walking up the stairs, putting on a denim jacket. I thought I'd have to explain who I was, but she already knew. She looked pretty much like her avatar picture, except she was wearing glasses.

I wanted to hug her, imagining that we were old friends finally reunited. The hug was a bit awkward though, and I suddenly remembered that we had never met before. I remember actually saying that it sucked I'd have to write in my journal tomorrow that it was awkward! (and here it is! )

We went outside together, and started walking up the street. Leaves were blowing around. I said "Did you know you live at number 23?" To which she replied "Cool!" Then we decided to look for a street sign to see what street she lived on. And there it was... the street she lived on: "Bright Braid St."

I asked if she brought her camera, and she showed it to me. I said "You HAVE to take some pictures! We have to see what happens!" We both thought the concept of taking dream pictures was very cool, and joked that we'd have to find a shop in the dream to develop them.

Twoshadows wanted to sit down, so we sat on the bumper of an old car. "This is a little chilly," she said to me. I could tell that she was hinting that since I was in control, I should do something about it. I closed my eyes, snapped my fingers, and we appeared on a warm beach, lying on the sand. This scene was not nearly as clear, and I guess the shock of the change, or my having closed my eyes was enough to jolt me out of the whole thing.

I woke up. Unfortunately, we never made it to the malt shop, but it was fun to finally dream about a specific DV member.

That's so cool. You were able to do it. That's great!

Isn't it so funny how we think things like that in an LD?

I asked if she brought her camera, and she showed it to me.

And how thoughful that you even let me have my camera in this dream! I hope we got some good pictures.

I always feel disappointed after waking up when I have taken pictres in a dream because I don't get a chance to see them.

I closed my eyes, snapped my fingers, and we appeared on a warm beach, lying on the sand.

Good job with the scene change. Too bad it gets fuzzy from here.

But great job on the lucid dream!!

I wanna lucid

I'm giving up...

Me: I'm still dreaming.
Maggie: Mmm, who isn't?

"Mmm, who isn't?" I Love that line!

This made perfect sense to me when I read it. Almost as if putting a drop of water on the mirror would make the mirror liquid somehow (for some reason I got the image of a pebble being thrown into a pond and the resulting ripples).

LOL!! Child abuse!! Now that's a visual!! :p

I need to remember this method of finding someone.. I keep walking around searching aimlessly until I forget who I was trying to find.

Wow.. a bit of reality seeping into your lucid dream!

Change of venue by simply snapping your fingers.. you'd make one hell of an impression on a first date!!

The more times you went through it, the more compact the clay became and the more likely you were to lose a limb going through it
It was very cool, can't wait to try to summon this same portal in a lucid.

Mes Tarrant, let's hope you make it through this blue clay portal with all your lucid limbs attached!

Great job everyone!

Sure, but following it up by fading out of existence and leaving your date alone on the beach would sort of ruin the moment.

No no no...Don't give up. You can do it. We'll all cheer you on.

(Or maybe you should give up. I had my first LD the night after I officially "gave up"....:p)

Uhm.. true.. nevermind.

haha thanks for the vote of confidence guys!

This sucks though, I used to LD all the time, and now its getting worse and worse

Thanks for the comments. DCs say some funny things sometimes. The little girl in I met before that asked me if I was a ghost because I was flying around in front of her. Cracked me up later.

Let you? I insisted! Somebody has to get some shots of my crazy landscapes! Unfortunately, I don't remember you actually taking any pictures

I do realize that this is a little late in coming, seein as I only have six days left, but I figured I'd post it anyways.


So this started off as a semi normal dream. I was lost in the town square by where I live, and I recognized it at once. I had either lost my car, or someone had stolen it. (Why anyone would want that peice of shit I'll never know) So I was there and I saw my mom's friend Sandy, who is like, 54 years old. And in my dream she looked 30 something and instead of blond hair it was black. So, knowing this, I did a RC. Realizing fully it WAS a dream, I gave up on the quest to find out what happened to my car and went into a back alley. I went inside a market place to buy food, when I realized that my grandparents and my cousin where there, listening to this band that was playing in the back. There was a monkey, and it was riding around on my shoulders while I was deciding if I wanted M&Ms or not. (Haha) Not too interesting, untill I remembered I could pull people into my dreams. So I ran to the back where the band/group was playing, and made Misuer Slothy the lead singer. He had short brown spikey hair, and looked almost like the guy from Rascal Flatts. http://i.realone.com/assets/rn/img/2...835-slarge.jpg (The dude on the far left, IDK why, b/c i really hate that band ). During intermission, I ran up to him and hugged him, and.. well I'll spare you the wonderful details, , but it was awesome. He had to go back to his band/group, and I woke up due to my phone going off.
