This is from last Friday, but I've just been too lazy to type it up.

This was the result of a WILD. It ended up being one of my longest LDs since every time I thought the dream had ended, either I was wrong or I DEILD'd back. I was able to do both of the challenges. I'm leaving out most of it, but if you want to read the whole thing, it's here: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...0&postcount=84

The parts where I complete the challenges are in blue.

I decided I would hum the entire time since it seemed to be keeping the dream stable. I walked out of my front door and went to the right down the hall. I was hoping there would be an ice skating rink in that direction since I hadn’t gone that way in my dreams yet, but it exited to an area that looked like part of the outside of my high school. There was a large green field to the front and left of me and a street further in front of me. There was a kid out in the middle of the grassy area with ice skates on. I decided to go over and get them from him.

I went over to him and I was concerned he might not give them to me, but he did. I started putting them on and I saw a small lake nearby. I thought maybe I could get it to freeze over, but I woke up.

Anyway, then I realized I was actually still dreaming. I somersaulted out of my bed. I had no dream visuals, but I ran out of my apartment and back to where the house was. There still weren’t any visuals, but I decided it would be fun to go somewhere else. I decided while I couldn’t see, I would just use super speed to run down the road next to my apartment complex. I super sped down the road, but I still had no visuals. I really didn’t even know where I was. I realized that this was silly. I thought, “All I’ve really been doing is visualizing where I expected to be, so now I’m going to expect to be at an ice skating rink.”

I visualized an ice skating rink and then there I was. I went up to the guy at the counter to get some ice skates. I tried putting them on, but I was having a little trouble. I got one of them on easily, but the other one I couldn’t get my foot under the top shoe flap. I finally got it on and started skating. I didn’t even bother to tie them up, but it didn’t seem to matter. I started ice skating and it felt like I remembered it. I wasn’t stumbling or anything though. There were a bunch of other DCs there skating around.

I decided to try to talk to them. I said something like, “Hey guys. What’s up? Anyone want to talk?” Everyone just kind of stood there and stared at me. I said, “Really? No one wants to say anything?” They all just kept staring. I was like, “Okay…” and started skating again. One girl then came over and said, “Be honest with yourself.” Then I said, “Well then I guess you mean that I should just realize that all of you are really me so then why would you talk to me.” They all started looking around at each other and smiled and nodded. I just sighed and woke up.

Once again I noticed that I wasn’t really awake though. I didn’t even bother somersaulting out of my bed this time. I imagined myself at a lake very similar to the one where I had met the mermaid in one of my previous dreams. I jumped in and began swimming down. I was holding my breath at first, but then I remembered that was pointless and felt the cool sensation of air flowing through my nose while underwater. I was doing a breast stroke as I swam downwards, but then I found that doing a freestyle stroke was faster lol. I could see a city down below, but it was taking way too long to get there. I decided that this was pointless, so I just closed my eyes and imagined myself at the bottom.

I found myself at the bottom. I wasn’t in the city of Atlantis though. I was just outside it. I was at the base of some underwater sand pyramid structure. It had columns of floating multi-colored gems (like the ones in Super Mario Galaxy) floating about parts of it. I could see Atlantis just about 200 feet away. There was a city wall around it and an open gate in the front. I could see skyscrapers towering out of the center of it. They had a strange kind of spiky underwater looking architecture. The whole city had a dark blue coloring. I started swimming toward it and then sadly I woke up (for real this time).
