      Talking First basic task success!

      My first time completing a task! I dreamt I got out of bed and walked in the garden, and became lucid. I started to run (as I usually do when starting a lucid dream) but told myself to stay calm and maintain lucidity. Walked a garden path/with high walls of greenery, picked at leaves to look at their detail, and came to a pool at the end of the path, immediately recognizing it as a dreamsign of mine. Before swimming, I remembered the basic task, after some thought. Closets appeared near the pool, and I looked in one, gave myself a bolt of fright as I opened it, expecting something nasty, but there was only flotsam: old files and a lampshade etc. I looked in the adjacent closet for good measure. The same type of contents. Then swam, it was warm. When at one end of the pool I noticed a dark shadowy figure at the other end and assumed it was the other side of myself. I wanted to use the pool to teleport to a beach in Barcelona, so I swam fast underwater to the middle of the pool, meeting up with my other self, and tried to spin to get to the sea in Barcelona. Tried 3 times but no success. Walking with Shadow (my sister’s dog) back to the house, I got a call on my cellphone from a friend of mine in Hong Kong. How cool to tell her over the phone that I’m lucid dreaming while I’m lucid dreaming, I thought! But I couldn’t hear a clear signal and gave up concentrating to speak to her. Then in the house, I lost lucidity, believing that I had woken up and was now telling my dad about my lucid dream. Was also distracted by things and people going on around me; vats of pesto, washing drying indoors, had to wash my oily pesto hands, eating chocolate, popping a zit.

      Sooo... Managed the second task last night, finaly. I was on a huge boat(if anyone have read the comic book "Filth", it was sorta like this one). And there I saw some friends, we talked for a while about something I can't remember. Then I remember shewing some gum and that I had to trow it away cause it was all used up and so I trew it out from the railing, when I did some guys came and tried to trew me out instead, then I remembered that I could fly and so I became lucid, I lifted up in the air and tried to hit one of them with a bench I picked up, however it missed. They ran away and then I remembered my failed atempt att the second tsunamitask and created a new wave witch came from behind me and so I surfed on it for a few seconds before I woke up, yeah.

      Yay! I had tried doing the task 5 times before, but I woke up before I got to my bed. But this morning I was successful. I live with my parents at the moment, I'm sleeping in the guest room, and I'm not too familiar with the bed there. Anyways, on to the lucid dream...

      Basic task

      I was in the living room, looking at myself in a mirror that's not there in real life. I was entertaining myself by changing my appearance, changing my gender and age several times. Then I remembered the tasks, but I also knew that I would wake up soon. I hurried upstairs to the room where I was sleeping in real life. I bent down and looked under the bed. I saw something black there, and I grabbed it and dragged it out. It appeared to be a large t-shirt. I also found some more clothes (white shirts/t-shirts, panties and socks, and I also found a book with an orange cover. I never found out what kind of book it was, because I woke up.

      Now, the fun part is that after I had woken up, I tried looking under my bed, but it's built in close to the wall, so it's not possible to look, or put anything under it...

      I completed the advanced task this morning. I tried to WILD, but had no luck at that, so I just went to sleep hoping I'd remember to do it.

      I had a dream about being in my childhood home, then woke up. I figured I'd try for a MILD, and hopefully recall the tasks.
      A huge storm was coming. I figured since I was dreaming it would turn into a tornado eventually (storms usually do). So I helped a bunch of DCs get into a basement. I remembered that I wanted to do the advanced task. To change scenes I spun in a circle as fast as I could. I felt waves surging beneath my feet. I was blind, but figured that didn't matter. The waves didn't feel wet, and I didn't sink in them, just rode on top. I felt a huge surge, wind going through my hair, and my stomach lurched, like when you go up very fast. I figured this must be a tsunami. Then I tipped and fell, like I'd fallen over the crest of a huge wave. I fell for several seconds, then landed on a smooth, soft surface that surged and fell again -- more tsunami waves! I remembered reading that someone liked the advanced task so much they've done it several times. I hoped that next time I'd be able to see. Then I woke up so I wouldn't forget it.

      Seeker28, thats bizarre. You were blind through the whole ride? And the water didn't feel wet? I'm trying to wrap my mind around this.

      What did the water feel like? Was it rubbery? Like cloth? Like sand?

      Thats so cool that it was only tactile.

      i think i completed the basic task...a lot of my recent lucid dreams have had something to do with me on a bike...

      i was riding my bike with my brother and we look behind us and a big black jeep is coming so we slow down and go to the side of the road but it changes into a red pickup and stops beside me.there are two guys inside ,then i remember the task so one of the guys tells me there is something in a box under my bed that is interesting then they drive away.we go home and i open the shoe box under my bed to find a note that says to meet whoever on a hill in a corn field if i want to know about faeries. i bike out to this hill and no one is there so i pick a bunch of wild flowers and wake up.

      I completed the advanced task! I totally forgot the basic one last night so I'll try that one again later.

      Night of 4/15

      I was riding in a car when I remembered the lucid tasks, but for some reason I thought one of them was turning the sky black. It sure did sound challenging, so after some effort I managed to do it. The sky was a cool blue, and I sort of made a dome cover it like you’d see in a planetarium. But for some reason, the effect didn’t last more than a few seconds, like a solar eclipse, and the light from the sky bled through until is was a reddish color (think sunset red), and finally it went back to normal.

      We (I was with some people but they aren’t memorable) stopped by this lake to go swimming. For some reason, there was a large wave (10-20 feet) even though it was a lake. And that’s when I remembered the other task. First I got off the ground and flew towards the waves. Then I waited for the next one and made it grow to an enormous size. Then I surfed (curiously, without a surfboard I think because I never consciously created one) the inside of the wave and the tube came crashing down behind me. Many a “woo-hoo” followed, but when the wave crashed over me and I bobbed back to the surface, there was no land in sight. Crap. See, this is exactly why I hate dream oceans. It’s really hard to create/find land again and it sucks having nothing but water on all sides, which was exactly the situation I was in. But it was better than how I used to be, since up to about a few months ago I used to be utterly terrified of the dream ocean, so now it was just kind of annoying. I decided to just wake myself up since that was easier than trying to fix the whole dreamworld.

      basic

      I find myself in my room totally lucid....I look around and my room looks like a tornado has gone through it. The bed only has three legs on the ground, and part of it is stuck in the wall...that totally reminded me of the task of the month. There were clothes underneath the bed. A pile to be exact. I remember seeing one of my favorite blue shirts there, and walking off.

      thanks =b

      I read this thread last night and though, riding a tsunami would be frightening. maybe others are just riding really big waves, but a tsunami is more than a really big wave!! at least to me, it means epic suffering

      I thought about trying the first one last night, but like usual, I never remember the task when I'm dreaming.

      Instead in my dream, I thought "lets fly to the ocean yay!"

      now the nearby village built giant walls all along the beach. I wasn't sure what the walls were for. I flew over the walls and there was the ocean. Except there were more walls in it, to sorta I guess, create different reservoirs and dams.

      But unlike a river, this ocean was in some serious action. The waves crashed up against the wall furthest out to me. There was such a force behind it! The wave rose up a good 40ish ft.

      "Wooo...coool!" was my first reaction as I was flying towards the living ocean. But then. The wave fell back down. Then I realized all these walls to make an ocean reservoir, was like a cup of water swinging to and fro. As the wave fell back down the water beneath me rose and before I had time to react, the ocean engulfed me and I was slammed up against the wall. The wave rose over that wall to, and the to and fro action dragged and crashed me up against the other wall before I had time to react.

      I tried to fly past this area of the ocean but there were only even bigger reservoirs, with even bigger waves crashing to and fro. I tried to fly up higher to get above the wave - but the waves were so massive and fast, by the time one wave was done crashing another had risen on the other side. And with the to and fro action it was an endless scene of wave rising, wave crashing.

      After a wave slammed me down against the ocean floor I thought it best to turn into a shark and get the hell out of here. Unfortunately, I didn't remember the forum challenge. I was just really confused and didn't understand why the waves were so epic in proportion. So I swam away and bothered DCs instead

      The waves felt very smooth and cool, like rubber or flesh. But they had a lot of give to them, like I was standing on top and my feet would make little depressions. When I fell the wave bent with me, but I still didn't get wet. Really cool.

      Well, it was kind of hard to make it, but at last, I did it, the first lucid task I complete!
      I only managed to make the advanced task, because in the dream I couldnt remember which was the basic task.
      Here is my dream, WBTB lucid:

      "I was walking and searching for DC to ask them questions, then I saw 2 friends from school, and I started making some random questions about some girls that where passing by. Then, I got bored talking and started skating near my school, (I never skated in RL) so I wanted to try to skate.
      Then I remembered, I could try for the first time one of the lucid tasks. I tried to remember which was the basic task, but only one of the tasks was in my mind "Ride a tsunami". I ran to the river, that is kind of near my house, and it was twice has big has it is in RL, but anyway, I jumped to the water, it was really warm, and then I willed for a tsunami, the water began to move a lot, 2 waves went from the coast to the center of the river, and then they came back, followed by a really big wave. I tried to reach it while it wasn't very tall, and I succeeded it! I was on the very top of the wave, with a snowboard on my feet. I could see all my city getting inside the wave, and when I looked back, the city was dry and normal. It was a good feeling."

      Here it is =P All the details I could remember. It only lacked 1 thing, I didn't felt the earthquake, maybe because I was in the water.. =)

      I like the tasks where we ask DC's things. For the past months I keep asking my dream name, and get different responses everytime. I just now saw this and will report back when task is complete.
      And experience it as a place to visit and play with reality.

      I will probably do this task at some point but first I'm going to go on a hot air balloon ride. I had a lucid dream last night and was going to go on a hot air balloon ride but ended up wasting it on several moments of sexual pleasure which led to a false awakening where I had just orgasmed (though I didn't orgasm in real life). I was so busy rushing to the toilet before I came that I ended up forgetting to do a reality check.
      Love is lucid.

      Well, didn't complete the task due to the phone but I will write down what I got. I rarely have dreams that start in my room, but I am sure I did only b/c the task suggested I look under my bed or maybe due to my real life duties.

      I am laying in bed with the dogs very early morning, my husband has already gone to work. I am off work today due to an early morning eye doctors appt. I glance at the clock. So I know I should get up and take a shower and start the day, but I am feeling lazy and get more comfortable for a short nap before starting the day.

      DREAM: I wake up in bed with the dogs, the sun is shining thru my windows, all is normal and as it should be. I go straight into the bathroom (thru double doors - this is normal) and start the shower. I check out the doors to see if my dogs got up yet and I have to let them out. I don't remember closing the doors but don't think much of it. I look out them and my room is no longer my room, it is different. I shut them, confused. Then open them up again, to the "normal" scene, and see one of my dogs awake, two more still snoozing on the bed. I know I am dreaming now! I glance at the shower and think that sounds boring, what else can I do that is fun while I am lucid. I want to run out my side door (from the bedroom goes to the backyard) and fly. But the water is hot in the shower so I decide to jump in real quick and then fly. While I am in the shower, which is just like real life, I remember the task! So I step out of the shower and am getting ready to leave the bathroom and look under my bed

      The phone rings. It is my husband making sure I am up. Back to the real world again.

      Vivedream, you were so close. That probably would have been interesting with all the dogs on top of the bed, and an unknown mystery below.

      YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! Guess who FINALLY completed the advanced task of the month after 18 days of trying!! Yup!! Me!!

      Did it last night. I was laying down on some grass, was lucid, I changed the stars in the sky to say "Paul loves Hannah" (me and my girlfriend) then I consentrated REALLY hard on a tsunami. It didn't come. Then I had to dig deep into myself and BELIEVE that I could summon it. Then gush, it came. I jumped (when I jumped I floated) then I landed onto the huge wave and I rode on it!!

      Then I crashed at Williamson's park (a park where I live, it was that place in my dream but it looked different). I lost lucidity as I got scared because it was killing people. But I suppose that all counts as (took me long enough) a success!!

      WOOOO!!

      First advanced task I ever completed

      (Sorry for being so excited, lol)

      Last night i had a Lucid dream and i wasnt even aware of the lucid tasks of this month, but i happen to have done the basic task without knowing

      I had a long lucid which i did many things in it, but when i was in my room and i knew that i was dreaming, went through everything, seeing if it was like real life or not. And since in real life i have a ton of garbage under my bed, when i checked in the dream, true enough; it was full of stuff
