Thread: Task for the Month for March 2009

I did the first task! okay so i was lucid and flew to a bed andbreakfast place. I asked them if they had any green eggs and ham. They told me to ask the guy outsied, i did and he told me to sit down. he brought them out and placed them on my table. I started with the eggs first. They tasted like corn with salt, pepper, and butter on them but were kind of slimy. They ham was really good. it tasted like choclate chiped pancakes.

lol pancakes

choc chip pancakes? OMG that sounds awesome.

I'm in. I'm starting late in the month but think I can at least get one of the task.

I'm doing a WBTB now...maybe I'll be posting something later today!

If not I will post my progress.

Thanks!
lol, it's fine. It's just a dream. Not like I haven't had (gross) meat-eating dreams before. I could always make a tofu ham.

Thanks (:
Actually, I didn't want to eat in that room because it wasn't very sanitary eating conditions. I'm sure the birds still thanked me, though. lol


The rest of those dreams are in my DJ, if anybody is curious. I just posted the task parts.

Instead of getting both tasks done in the same dream like I often do, I got one task done in two dreams. I hope it counts.

Part one: I suddenly suspected that I was dreaming. I was in a house. I tried to remember one of the tasks. the first thing I thought of was eating green eggs and ham (I hope that really was the task--I haven't double checked yet). I rushed into the kitchen of this house (not mine).

I looked for the green eggs and ham. Often all I have to do is just look, and it is suddenly there. But all I saw was a table with some dirty dishes on it. I looked at the stove. There were some dirty pans. I opened the fridge. I saw a carton of eggs. They were white.

I then realized with a little frustration that I would have to go through the effort of cooking them myself since my brain didn't magically create them for me.

I grabbed one of the dirty pans and took it ot the sink and scrubbed it out. When it was mostly clean, I filled it with water. I then took it to the stove. Then I cracked the egg and dropped it into the hot water. Why I did it this way, I have no idea. I usually eat my eggs boiled or fried/scrambled.

As I watched the egg cook in the boiling water I focused on it really hard willing it to turn green. Finally I could see it change color until it was a nice shade of green. Satisfied I reached in the pan and pulled it out (I obviously didn't notice the heat). I put the egg in my mouth and really tried to notice the flavor. It tasted like one big yolk, but it didn't really have the dry texture of a plain yolk.

After I was done chewing the egg, I started searching again for some ham to eat. But before I could find any I started to wake up.


Part two:


At that point I was fully aware that I was dreaming. I then remembered that I really needed to eat some ham to get credit of the "Green eggs and Ham" Task that I had started in my last LD.

I was now in an alley with my old best friend Marie. I saw a doorway up on the second floor I grabbed her hand and told her that we were going to fly up to the door. She was easy to lift. We flew in the door.

I saw several people I decided that instead of looking for Ham (like I did in the last dream and had no luck with) that I would ask someone to bring me some. I called out that I needed some ham, and a guy brought me a bite-sized hunk. It was normal colored. I suddenly wasn't sure if the ham needed to be green, or just the eggs. I decided to play it safe and make this ham green. I focused on it until it slowedly turned first white, then green.

I put the piece of ham in my mouth. It tasted just like I remembered ham tasting like. The texture was just right and it had a salty taste. I swallowed it. I felt good that I had been able to get that done do easily.

At that point I was suddenly hit with a wonderful idea. Why stop with ham?? Why not eat something I really wanted to eat. Next me me was a Japanese girl. I asked her if she could bring me some chocolate. She left and came back with the tiniest thinest piece of chocolate. I put in on my tongue and let it melt. I could taste a little chocolate flavor.

I saw row of freezers along the wall. I asked the Japanese girl if anyone would care if I ate something out of the freezers. Then immediately I remembered that since this was my dream I could do what I wanted and no one would care.

I opened the freezer in front of me. It was full. I could see a slice of pie in from of me. It looked like it was made out of mint chocolate chip cream. I grabbed it and stuffed it in my mouth. In two bites I had it all in. It was cold, but not frozen hard. It didn't hurt my teeth by being too cold.

I then looked and saw a few ice cream sandwiches. I pulled one out and tore half the wrapper off. I ate the first half in one bite, then I sqeezed the wrapped and the other half just slid out into my mouth. The favor was wonderful. The temperature and texture were also perfect. I thanked my mind that it was all so enjoyable. After eating a few ice cream sandwiches, I saw some Twinkies. I unwrapped one and found that it was also cold but not frozen hard, but cool and slightly firm. I ate that in one bite and went to grab another one.

Then I started to lose the dream and everything faded.

Nicely done guys

Well, I did half of it. From my dj:

I think I had a FA, but I don't remember. I just know I thought something's wrong. I wanted to RC, but then told myself there's no need, cause I was 100% sure I was dreaming. I was suprised how everything was vivid and looked around. Even the bed sheets were detailed. The balcony door was open so I went out and just started rising up at a slow speed. Everything was very bright. I got to the roof across and on my side of the building, on the top floor, I could see 5-6 cats on the window. My neighbour had two cats, but they died few years ago, so I wondered when did she get so many cats (I think I lost lucidity here a bit). The cats kept pushing each other and then pushed one of them off the window and it fell. I looked down and it was lying dead. I felt sorry for the poor cat, but then remembered I'm lucid dreaming. So I remembered the monthly task and started looking behind every possible thing for green bacon and eggs. I then flew down from the roof and entered someone's flat through the window. I looked for a fridge, opened it but nothing. I think found a frying pan with some steaks and something that remotely resembled a bacon. It wasn't green however, so I tried making it green and then ate it. It tasted like normal bacon. That's the last thing I remember.

Very close, I know that next time you'll get it

Spoiler for Rainbow Attempt:

I was in a place in my game and looked at my hands and said I'm dreaming! * right off the bat * Then I found a sword and teleported up to a place with a bunch of zombies. I then found and killed the king which was not much of a fight. Then all of the abominations swarmed me. I sliced and diced them but there were too many. I wasn't thinking clearly because I was getting hit with their hooks. I quickly jumped off the side and made water appear at the bottom. I dove in the water and pulled the plug so the water drained. There was a draenei shaman in t7.5 that walked passed me.I tried to walk on a rainbow but I could not make one. I tried to color the sky orange but it didn't work. I took my hand and with all my energy moved the sky with a left to right motion. The sky turned a bunch of colors but no orange. I then tried to make a rainbow with microsoft paint that came out of no where. I couldn't make a simple curve, it was all jagged.Everything was fading and I couldn't stabilize so I did a DEILD. I thought it failed but it worked! I was in my dream room. I went out in the back yard and tried to fly but I couldn't fly very high, then all of a sudden my dad shows up, he said just relax and you will fly. Sure enough that worked. Then I was to focused on flying and my surroundings changed, I was on the side of my house and there was a computer and I was on myspace or something. It was in Spanish, but not really. Everytime someone commented me it said "guapo" or "dapo" I then wanted to fly to the moon but I couldn't quite make it. But when I was flying, everything shifted and I'm guessing I switched sleeping positions. I then heard someones tv from the outside so I thought it was late. I decided to wake myself up. It was only 7:24, I had only been asleep an hour in my REM and had a lucid dream. I then woke my self up a bit and try to remember everything I could about this lucid dream and went back to sleep.

Cool

I am going to try for the green eggs and ham
this will be my first time trying to do one of these tasks

Advanced task: complete

The dream started off, and I was in a house. I looked over at my friend (one of my dream signs) and I realized I was dreaming. I walked over to the window, and saw it was raining outside, which made me think of the advanced task. I walked away from the window, and told myself "A rainbow will come through the window, because the rain has stopped." I turned back around, and sure enough it was there. I crawled up it and had to crawl out the window while on it (it was almost hitting the top of the window) I stood up after getting out the window and started running up the rainbow. It went on up into the clouds, and I finally sat down to enjoy the scenery. Sitting down on a rainbow made me think of skittles, so I "spawned" some right beside me (sour skittles, YUM ) and started eating them. Then I jumped down like two thousand feet, and landed perfectly. Then my vision went black, I got mad because I still wanted to do more, and forcefully woke myself up.

Can't wait to try these! I want a yellow name.

I just noticed that I have the "Rainbow" badge when it should be the "Green eggs and ham" badge. I want to keep trying for the rainbow, though.

Oops, sorry TS. Nicely done CreationX

I dont know if this counts byt here it goes.

this is straight from my DJ.


Woo I think i completed the monthly task.

I was in first person view and i was staring up at the sky, there was a empty purple water balloon in the middle of my vision, i put my hand in front of my face to check if i was lucid, and sure enough, i was missing a pinkie finger. (why is it always that one?) i looked around and saw not a cloud in the sky. i changed the scene to my room (first actual control of my dreams)and the water ballon was still dead center in my vision, i stopped staring at the ceiling and remebered the monthly task for the rainbow and decided to try it. i used the balloon and streched it with my mind, i focused on changing the color and eventually i got to a rainbow. It faded into my ceiling nicely. i jumped onto it and ran, i got about two feet and then started to slowly slide back down, it was like the whole thing was covered in oil. after a while i got up a little more and the rainbow turned into like mushy water and i fell through.then i woke up

Why is everyone's rainbows so slippery

ALMOST!

Last night I was dreaming about being in a room with a few friends, the room was bright blue and I had never seen it before, There was nothing in it tho just one window, My two friends were fighting over something, I think it was a stuffed animal. And I realized I was dreaming, I was thinking about going to see my boyfriend then I remebered about the task. So I thought I would do it before I saw him.
I made my other friends disapear and imagine there was a fridge infront of me.
There was, I opened it and there was nothing in it but a big plate of green eggs and ham, the eggs looked very weird, The yolks were green and the outside was purewhite, but they were moving, like.. jello?
Anyway I reached for it, but I woke up

Maybe next time

I really wish there was some way to investigate the slippery rainbow effect... Its interesting. Oh yeah, a couple nights ago I pulled green eggs and ham out of my TV
I call it my dreamscreen. the eggs tasted like cookie dough, and the ham was alright heh.

Had a good LD. I didn't remember the task though.

But I had a successful WILD that turned to FA then had a DEILD. Two long passes through SP with sounds and vibration.

Decent length and vivid.

I'll get the task. I'm going for the rainbow....no interest in green eggs and ham.

AH!

I ate green eggs and ham once...but not in the month of March.
Sad for me.

In the last 3 LD's I just couldn't conjure a rainbow in the sky, maybe because I tried to change all the scenery in the same time.

I really want to complete that task, but I need to be able to make a rainbow first, how did you create your rainbow?

I'll try again tonight, and the next night and the next....

I got them both done in the same dream. I wish I could have posted this earlier, but I lost my text without saving it.

I admit, though, I kinda cheated on the basic one. Tell me if it counts!

Dream Five:
"Hadouken-Boiled"

I ended up in another dream, and was back in school again. It didn't take me long at all, recognizing my surroundings, to realize that I was still dreaming. Walking the halls, I tried to think of the Tasks, and the first one to come to mind was the "walk on a rainbow" task. I was inside, though, and couldn't find a rainbow. I saw a ghostly one appear in a reflection from one of the glass walls in the hallway, but it was inside the glass and I didn't really have a way to get to it. I tried to make a 'fake' rainbow on the ground, just for the sake of completing the task, but I couldn't do that either. Walking a little further, I passed a Skittles dispenser with a huge rainbow printed across the machine. (LOL!) Thinking I could use this to my advantage, I ripped the face of the machine off, and it was soft like a tarp. I threw it down on the ground but I thought it was pretty lackluster. While I was thinking of a way to make it more 'rainbow-y,' it suddenly lit up, by itself, shining bright with all its colorful glory. "This'll do," I figured to myself. Just as I began walking across it, some girl showed up out of nowhere. She stepped up on the tarp with me and we began making out on it. We lowered ourselves to the floor and lay down on the rainbow and kissed some more, but I didn't want to risk losing the dream yet, by having sex so I got up to leave after I was satisfied that I'd "walked across the rainbow" like the task instructed.

Next, I thought about the Green Eggs and Ham task. I was pretty anxious to try this, because I don't really remember paying much attention to the taste of lucid food. As if on cue, I passed someone in the hall that had something green on his plate. Before I was close enough to see what it was, I 'willed' it to be green eggs and ham. Effortlessly, it had worked, and I could see a few green slabs of ham and two green, hard-boiled eggs on the plate. I bit into the ham, and it tasted awful - like eating play-dough or something. A bit reluctant, I bit into one of the eggs, and it tasted just like a normal hard-boiled egg. It was actually pretty good. By this time, the hallways were beginning to fill up with people. Feeling a bit mischeivious, I took the remaining egg and hurled it through the air, smacking someone over the head with it. From out of nowhere, another egg came flying back at me, and then another from any direction. And another after that. Suddenly, everyone in the hallway was throwing peeled, hard-boiled eggs at me. Moving as fast as I could, I was slapping away the eggs like I do the bullets in some of my other lucids, and there were so many people in the hallways that most of the ones I deflected would end up hitting the others. People started chasing me with their egg assault, and I ran for cover. I was having the time of my life, but I was grossly outnumbered. I ended up getting cornered, and just as they were about to launch a full-on egg barrage, I got a bright idea. (I remembered one of the last things I remembered on DV being AmazeO telling me "Hadouken!" and I wondered if this might work. If I didn't have any eggs, I would have to manifest them...a lot of them.)

I pulled my hands back, as if I were doing a Kamehameha, but when I through my hands forward, I screamed "Hadouken!" unleashing a steady stream of hundreds of eggs out of my palms and just completely owning everyone in front of me. I could actually feel the eggs coming out of my palms, which was a very weird sensation. We battled for a little while, and I ended up slipping away from the horde. I found myself in the cafeteria and, nothing else to do, I had sex with some random chick up against the wall, while the rest of the people in the cafeteria either watched or did their own thing. I wasn't really paying them much attention. I don't remember much of the sex at all, but I was soon back out in the hallway, and still getting into sporadic skirmishes with egg-slingers, to which I would reply with my new patented move, completely overwhelming them with eggs. I was about to finally leave the school, but first I stopped to clear my mind and try to remember everything that happened, so I wouldn't forget upon waking up. I saw my buddy James in the hallway, who I work with, and I told him I'd see him later, after I woke up and went to work.

I walked outside and saw Stacey - another co-worker - and some others out there. I started telling them about this all being a dream and they wouldn't believe me. I told them that I could prove it. There was a fountain outside the school and I pointed to it, making the water go up and down with a rise and fall of my hand. Astonished, they believed me. Satisfied, I tried to wake myself up.
