Thanks Pride! It does help alot to have a "goal" in mind (plus the more lucids you have.. the better they should get).

Alex, LOL! I'm curious.. would you respond like that in real life if someone woke you up?!

Wow. Wolfie, your subconscious really didn't want you bothering your "sleeping" you did it?

I think I shook her (myself?) awake. She didn't say much at all, just stared at me. But when I commented on how little she looked like me she said she'd try and fix that. Then I shut my eyes and focused (or maybe she did.. it's a little hazy) and *poof* she had my colour hair and eyes.

Then I got distracted by my brother walking into the room. I tried asking him what the easy task was but he didn't know either. I looked back at the Me in the bed, just to see her fading away like a ghost. No matter how much I tried I couldn't bring her back.

I like that.. your sleeping foot keeping rhythm with your astral hand! It's also cool how your sleeping you changed herself to look like you when you commented that she didn't.. but then she faded away.

no_limits, ok.. that was clear as mud! LOL!

The bridge was a little rubbery and would start to bend more and more, the further I walked on it, making it hard to stay on. I instead decided to sit down on it, hold on, and let it take me for a ride.

skysaw, very cool! I can totally picture this!

Goodbye my friends of the Echo Egg

it's time for me to sit and beg

It made no sense, but I felt I had to get that second line to rhyme, and couldn't think of anything! The track was just at the window when DING! My alarm went off and woke me up for the morning.

CRAP.. I wanna know what was on the other side of the window!! But hey.. you rode a bridge, met some nice "merry men" AND you serenaded them with a cute little song!

All in all.. a very nice lucid dream indeed!

Congratulations everyone!!

I probably would if I know the person.

Skysaw, that's a funny dream. I wonder if it will influence my blue bridge, when I find it.

Heh, yeah, I guess.

First real attempt at a task since I failed the tornado one in february.

I really wanted to do some tasks....I forgot them!! I thought that I did 2 and one was from the past but I just looked and nothing rang a bell. I did fly to my lake near my house and there I found the long bridge. At the end there was this very fairy tale looking castle. It seemed to be on an island. I didn't fly over because I was talking to some DC thinking I had time.

Next time I'm crossing over that darn bridge.

Hehe, oddly enough, I could easily do the advanced, but the bridge thing confused me.

My dream:
I was in my school. No one was there, but it was the middle of the day. I was in homeroom, and we were going on a field trip. So I got on the bus alone, and went to an amusement park-type-thingy, and the whole school was there. It was like a water thing, like those canals where you get a tube a float, but there weren't any tubes. The water flowed into a tunnel with a warning sign at the top. I was sitting on top of the entrance trying to stop people from floating in, but someone pulled me in. It wasn't scary at all. I then realized I was dreaming. I almost immidiately remembered the advanced task, so I concentrated hard. I turned around and saw myself sleeping. I tried to wake myself up by yelling, but was unsuccessful. So I pulled a chicken leg from nowhere and hit myself (her?) with it. She opened her eyes and jumped out of bed and started walking around. Then I woke up in real life.


Yeah...That was an incredibly uninteresting dream, no? Ah well. My dreams are usually very exciting...

OK, I did the bridge task but it was boring enough that I'm going to keep trying and do it again. But I'll take credit for this in case I can't.

I become lucid in a dark landscape, on a rocky shoreline. I walk along the water, trying to see a bridge. Some nasty shore-birds peck at me, and I smack their heads to make them leave. I don't see the bridge, so I jump into the air and fly over the water. Soon I find it; a small strip across the dark water. I fly down and see that it is a blue conveyer belt; it looks to be only a foot or so across but I manage to lie on it belly-down, face-first. It carries me along into a small, tight tunnel. I don't like it but I stick it out to see where it leads. I see a crack of light, and some wheeled carts, which I recognize with disappointment. I know where I'm going to come out--into the emergency room of a hospital. I fall out thru the opening into the room; there are some nurses behind the counter and ten or twelve DC's in the room. They totally ignore me until I call out for a particular DC I have been looking for; then they all turn towards me and claim to be him.

Bravo, Me!

Also,
Bravo, Moonbeam!

Whoa, Speel, that was a weird dream. You should have been more specific in your request. Congrats anyway!

It was a SP induced lucid, and I really don't know how i was able to do it since my father is installing a door in the living room, and it sounds like it needs at least three thousand nails.

But I feel kind of locked in my bed for a little bit...so i imagine myself swinging a kendo training sword....eventually I'm standing up doing it. So i phase through the door, and think about the TOM. I make a u-turn and go to my room, and I'm not there. So i leave, and tell myself "i'm going to be in bed when I come back". And i went back in there...and I could see someone underneath the sheets. I turned on the lights, and woke myself up. I told him "hey man, you gotta wake up". He had that angry as hell look i normally have from the lights and what not. He was also wearing a lime green t-shirt something that i don't own, and his hair was receding a little bit. But he didn't say a word...he nodded to me like he was gonna wake up, and i kinda felt bad for him, and said "nah, you're good to go, go back to sleep", and he did. I walked out of the door and started hearing hammering again as the dream ended.

Oh no, Clairity, I screwed up! I was trying to quote you! I hope this can be fixed! I knew this was going to happen sometime.

Oh no.. not my posting!!

I try so hard to remark on everyone's LDs.. my life is over!!

Why GOD why!!



LOL.. honestly, it's ok Moonbeam!

I don't have a copy of what I said but basically.. CONGRATS to those who completed a task and, for those who didn't.. keep trying.. I know you'll do it!

[Edits Moonbeams post and invites her over for coffee and cookies ]

Ok well tried and failed, exert from my DJ:

I was walking down this grassy hill with a few people. We were on our way to a party and there was this really pretty girl there with us, I mean she was gorgeous!!! I think this was brought on by the copious amounts of gorgeous women in Frigiliana (where I was staying in Spain). I tried talking to her and she seemed really interested in me, which I was really surprised about. Normally the pretty girls for for the meat head jocks and players... We were talking as walking down this grassy bank and getting on really well then she kissed me. I remember feeling so happy, like I could stay feeling like that forever.

Then we arrive at this party and my ex girlfriend is there with her friend on the sofa. So I sat down next to her and I said to her, this cant be right, I am on holiday now, I can't be at this party!! Then it hit me I must be dreaming!!! So I turned to my ex and told her that I was dreaming, ut she didn't seem all that interested and I don't think she actually remembered. So I thought, I would try the task! LOOK FOR A PORTAL!!! But how stupid of me, that was last months! I was looking around everywhere but couldn't find one, well in truth I didn't look that hard, so went back to the party and was talking to my ex again, she still didn't believe I was dreaming so to prove it I did things with her friend who was on the sofa next to her

Then I had an FA. We were then all sitting on a wooden bench at a table still with the two girls, and we each had a small book, all the same. So this time to prove I could get lucid I told them we would all read together and as we do we will all get lucid together, as I read the first ling, I check to make sure the girls are slipping into lucidity with me, they nod. Then I am lucid again! Easy! So I decide to just walk about for a bit, then realise the task this month is to find myself sleeping. Now I am outside so this could e tricky! I go into this building but it is like a barn, so I start swinging from the wooden struts across the top of the barn looking for rooms where I might be sleeping but cannot find myself! One of the beams on the top breaks and I fall down!

I have another FA! Fed up by this point and knowing its just another FA I just decide to walk in circles this time until I am lucid! It hits me and I am lucid once more. I see my step dad and my brother in law walking down this small path way so go over to talk to them, I told my step dad I was lucid and he didn't believe me either, so I said "Fine, I will prove it to you." There are footballs on the floor, I move them with my mind to prove I am lucid and her say "Ok you are lucid, that's a good thing, you must have a better mind than most." With this I decided to try the lucid task one more time! At this point my LD is so vivid and amazing, its like the old LDs I used to have before coming to this forum. I realise this, and decided to search for me, as know this dream is going to go on for a while yet! I remembered a post on DV about people flying and realise I have NEVER tried this before, so think to make it easier I will just climb up a tree and jump, what's the worst that can happen right. Without climbing I am already at the top. So I jump, but am falling really quickly!!! At the very last moment I swoop up into the air really high, then I remember I am afraid of heights!!!!! But for some reason my fear lasts for a couple of seconds before I take in the wonderful views and the feeling of the wind rushing past me!! I fly around for quite a while enjoying it, I remember Twoshadows saying how she likes to do dream flips in her dreams to do a few loopos whilst flying but I didn't like that too much lol. Then decide I must go find myself and all of a sudden this music is playing in my ears!!! Its the Indiana Jones theme tune, I start singing it as I am flying around. I later realise it should have been superman's theme but guess my mind preferred the Indiana Jones tune lol. So I swoop up to this flat, as this is where I think I am, and there is this GORGEOUS girl there waiting for me, she is wearing nothing but this tiny bikini! For some reason I stopped on her balcony! I knew I shouldn't have done this as dream sex always wakes me up with via FA or actually waking. Anyway, she seduces me and I awake and again fail another attempt at the task

LOL Moonbeam, the city I found over the bridge was pretty boring too-- I was expecting something better! I did it, though-- Friday night, first lucid this month! The actual lucid part is in color... the other part is just leading up to it.

(Oh, and congrats on the flying, Adam! Even if ya' didn't get the task done, at least you accomplished something! )

Ron Weasley suddenly appears sitting at a table that is in my sister’s room. I sit down next to him, kind of confused about how he suddenly got here. I go to look at my hand, but he pushes them down so I can’t see them. I give him a look, then try to pinch my nose instead—again, he holds my hands down to stop me doing the RC. I sit there for a minute glaring at him until he leans forward and tries to kiss me. I think, “This is absurd— this can't possibly be happening, and why on earth would he want to stop me doing an RC unless I really am dreaming?” I let him kiss me so that he leaves go of my hands—and I’m finally able to do an RC, it fails, and I jump up as fast as possible and run out the door as soon as I realize I’m lucid.

I walk outside and start to fly (low to the ground, because when I go too high I lose the dream), towards the woods by TL Road. I immediately want to look for the bridge, and the middle of the woods seems (for some reason) like the best place for it. I reach the trees and start to walk there, looking for a blue bridge I know is somewhere inside. I reach a place where the whole floor of the forest is water—it’s not really like a lake or river, it’s just- water where grass ought to be—kind of hard to explain. Right above it is the blue bridge, except it has curved edges and there’s water running through it—it’s a waterslide.

I had actually wanted the bridge to appear as a slide after reading someone on the forums say it looked slippery—I thought to slide all the way down it would be fun. The water I wasn’t expecting, but I’m not complaining! I jumped on and slid through the woods—towards the end I started to fall off, but by then I could see this giant ice-sheet and a drop below the bridge into water. The bridge ended slightly before the land, so I’d have to jump in order to avoid landing in the water. I jump, I slide across the sheet of ice, and I end up inside a building by a fight of stairs.

EF walks in through a door in front of me, and right behind her is another EF, except the second one was wearing winter clothes and the first one was wearing summer clothes. She looks at me with an odd expression for a moment, then she walks up the stairs and disappears. I open the door in front of me and walk down some steps—I emerge in a really large, dirty room with lots of people in it. I catch a quick glimpse of myself—and I look like an old woman! I decide to talk to one of the DCs (because that usually makes things more interesting), so I walk up to a man in a suit standing near me and ask him, “Am I really as old as I look?” He scowls and yells in response “I’ll see you in court!”

Then I woke myself up because I felt the dream fading a bit and didn’t want to forget any of it. The best part of it all was riding the water-slide bridge—that was fun!

LOL, Kylie your dream is hilarious ("I'll see you in court!"). Your water-slide bridge was much better than my conveyer-belt bridge. I'm going to try to do it again and see if I can get a better bridge and especially a better city at the end; I wonder if I'll have a different result next time.

grr, i tried the basic task and failed. i saw the blue bridge and it was oddly short and made of thin ply wood and i started to walk across it and it broke and i got frustrated trying to build it again and woke up. i should've just looked for another bridge,ha.

You wont really get the title, since all of this happened inside of an already occuring lucid. Actually when I woke up I was also in another lucid dream, as
a woman X.X and I was a (female) witch. Needless to say I was only semi lucid hah. Then Pike from buffy the vampire showed up, but it felt like it was a real person and not a DC. So if anyone happened to be asleep a few hours ago, and they were pretending to be him, while they met a person pretending to be a (Female) witch, lemme know X.X

<<<lucid Task insert>>>I removed the bullet with my dream power, while
also using my dream healing power, and shot the bullet at the black man who had
shot first. Then the woman started firing at me, so I turned every bullet she shot against
herself. Then I started to wonder if this was worth the trouble of wasting a lucid dream
on, that is when I realized that there was a task of the month to do! I summoned a door
from the ground, and unlike my previous doors that I had been able to summon, it
was already a portal (a path way with a visible area that I would be headed) to the
place I Wanted to go, it was the beggining of a bridge to DV, however it looked like
a game selection menu, it had start select, etc on it. I ran into the door, and walked
along the bridge, my light walk turned into a quick paced run very fast, and I found it was
harder to control my speed than it was at first, but I wanted to be able to describe my adventure to those
at dream views, so I tried to slow down when I saw words floating in the air. Unfortunately
for me, I could not read all of them, they were a list of words like this.
XXX
XXXXX
XXX
And at the top of the words were the words, "I lith dies"
after getting that much from the words they dissapeared, there were many other
spots on the way to the final destination that had words, but every time I tried to read them
the words would dissapear too quickly, even though they were crystal clear written.
So I found my way to the bottom of the bridge where I found a tree that the bridge was tied
to. It turns out the bridge was actually a ribbon. The land I found wasn't exactly the city
of marvalous buildings I had been expecting...it was a dark and dreary dank hollow
ground where many trees that looked like they were dieing were planted. There were small
islands scattered around the land, where the trees were planted, not much unlike
the tree I had just gotten down from after walking on the bridge. The end of the ribbon,
I discovered after getting down from the tree, was red. I touched the ribbon, and it became
loose. However, it was so tight before becoming loose that the fact that I was holding onto
it with a firm grasp made me go whirling about wherever the ribbon was tied to. (Like
twirling a shoe lace in your hand, and i'm the aglet) Well, I guess my brain is a moron, cause
instead of flying off back to wherever the heck the beggining of the ribbon started, I went circling
around the tree which makes no sense. I then fell off onto the ground...flying off onto one of the nearby island,
barely not landing into the abyss (which had replaced the water) At which point I did a happy dance, and then
accidently fell myself. <<<end lucid task>>>

It is worth noting that in my dream, although I had not read any of the other posting for this task, I had the thought while I was walking on the bridge, that someone from this forum had mentioned a note being tied to the end of the bridge...so I had expected there to be one...but there was no time to check. (since the bridge broke after my landing)

Since there was no city on the other end do I fail? lol I wont be upset if I do.

That city looks kind of creepy, interested to hear people's experiences on this one.

I guess mine won't work, right?

Don't be sad i_speel_good! I think it counts.. the task was to find your sleeping body and to wake yourself up (which you did).

ok.. so you were a corpse.. but really, is there no deeper "sleep"?!
