Thread: Task of the Month for June 2009

Enjoy.

I chose the star wars theme for two reasons: It was a huge summer blockbuster, and Father's Day is in June and a recent poll picked the scene where Darth Vader cut off Luke's arm then revealed that he was his father as the worse father-son moment of all time

not something i would be comfortable doing... thats why I think I'll pass on the sith task. on the other hand i would TOTALLY want to spend an LD talking to my dad!

(working on sarcasm)

I think I'll still work on last month's tasks. they seem a little more like something I would do.

Well I may have accomplished the Basic Task last night, before I knew what it was...

I started out lucid in my room although there were a couple of V.R. arcade games around me. I had fallen asleep thinking about them. So i got up and went downstairs and I was calling out for "dream guide" (personal lucid task) and when I got to the bottom of the stairs by the the front door there were my mom and 3-4 other women glaring menacingly at me like I was gonna get yelled at for something. So I went outside and my dad was in his car in the driveway. I asked him what was up and got into the car with him. We had one of those conversations that seemed really important at the time but can't really remember it anymore.

don't ask me how I totally forgot what it was, but i just did

It's night time and people are every where, and it sort of just clicks that I'm dreaming I don't even know how long i've been dreaming, but I really want to get Junes Task of the Month out of the way first.

Some guy was telling me that some girl was coming to meet up with me or something, and I told him that I was lucid and flew off to a picnic table with some people sitting there. I jumped on the table and roared at one of the guys sitting there, and he did the same thing. My muscles started growing and my skin became black as night with runic patterns on it. I was ripping out of my clothes and transforming into a Demon! The guy at the other side of the table was doing the same exact thing. The people at the table were horrified of our presence. I started prepping a fireball in my right hand. And my hand now was engulfed. Just when i was about to throw it at him, I had a FA ><

That was last month's task

i'm just going to watch episode II and V as a good reminder



my episode VI is scratched up =( Ironically that occurred right after I saw gungans in the new crap ending.

You mean VI, as its the only good one

Ah IV V and VI are all pretty good. The rest kinda sucked.

Fuuuunnn!

My entire life I've heard, "Luke, I am your father" said to me.
I don't have a friend whose never said it to me.
This task just might be completable on my part.
Perhaps If I took Darth Vader's helmet off, my father's face would be there...

I. Love. Star Wars.

I totally wanna talk to Darth Maul before fighting him.

Then you'd be able to do both tasks at once

Oh, I'm up for a Sith fight alright...

Talking to my Dad, i'll give that ago.

Today I read the tasks for this month and was able to induce a WILD during my afternoon nap and complete both tasks. I think I'm getting better at willingly inducing WILDs and dream control.

The dream started with me getting out of my bed. It was hard to see out of my left eye and it felt like there was something on my face (I've been having this problem over the last few weeks). Eventually I could wipe it away and my vision became more vivid. I took a little time to stabilize everything before leaving my room.

I walked down the hall and just imagined my father standing in the next room and sure enough he was there when I arrived. I asked him "what do you think of this lucid dreaming stuff that I'm doing?" and he said something really weird that I can't quite remember now. It was something like "just believe in it" or something.

For some reason parts of the dream are difficult to remember after speaking with my father, but I remember that somehow I ended up at Target where I work. I was standing near the shoe department and I was able to remember the other task so I imagined Darth Vader would be around the corner. I ran around to attack him with something. I think I had a lightsaber, but it's difficult to remember; it could have been a bat or a stick or something. A fight ensued which was pretty cool, but eventually I started getting bored so I figured it would be fun to let him win and kill me. So I sort of stepped back and did nothing and he pulled out this laser gun and shot me.

After that it's difficult to recall what happened. I remember that after waking from the nap that I had some non-lucid dreams so I must have drifted off into normal sleep or I had eventually forgotten that I was dreaming.

I live in the same house as my dad. I may try this. The only problem is that:

1. I never wake up in my bed.

2. When I do dream about my house, rarely there is ever anyone home with me.

3. One of my dream sign is useless (don't move and don't speak) dream characters.

So I not sure but maybe I can summon him when I become lucid and remember to do the task.

I had a very clear lucid dream this night, i said:
- Yes, now i have a chance to do a task.
Appearently, i werent about the read the task until now, so i didnt know what to do

Oh noes You'll get it next time.

It's gonna be awesome to fight a sith! I think this is one of the best tasks we've had in a while. I assume Count Dooku is a sith, correct?

Of course, one of my favorite! Be sure and try this one out, I'm excited to hear everyone's dreams on the Sith task.

Oh yeah...ninja I meant to say VI....I really only hated Episode I. All the others were okay. And here's what I got so far



It's daytime outside this time, and I'm feeling a little more confident. I get out to the middle of the road once again, and tell myself that Darth Vadar, is going to behind me. I turn around, and there a giant holographic skull that comes out of the ground. Bah! I tell myself the same thing, and turn around again. This time I see the "dark knight" running at me. Batman looks exactly like the version of him in Mortal combat vs. DC. I sigh for a second, and tell myself that the Emperor is behind me. When I turn around, I see Apocalypse from the X-men! Okay....let's try it again....RIIIING RIIING the phone wakes me up from sleep.

taken from my dream journal of course:

So, It's time to work on that task of the month I head to my fathers room, and he's in there. Sitting on his bed. I was going to ask him a question, but I told myself to just man up and do the advance on first like I told myself. I started heading to the living room, and when I got there, I told myself that Darth Vadar was at the door. After that I pictured him and all his evilness, and then tried to open the door. The door is unlocked, but I can't turn it! Someones turning on the handle from the other side. Someone strong. I let go, and step back, and the door swings open. Darth Vadar is behind it, and there's no doubt about it. He steps in, and says something to me, in that deep recognizable voice, but I forgot what it was. I told him that I've been waiting on this moment for a while now.

I've been stepping back further into the middle of the living room, and he's now positioned there as well. He pulls out his light saber and his red beam comes out, and I just make one appear out of thin air. I when I pressed the button a red beam came out. Unoriginal, but oh well, it's go time. The first thing he does is force push me. I feel it like a strong wall of air, but it doesn't move me at all. He immediately starts walking slowly towards me. I tried a force push on him, and he was unaffected. He got up to melee range, and our blades crossed several times. I was totally on the defensive most of the fight. Parrying each assault after the next. Everything he threw at me were flurries.

We locked lightsabers, and it was obvious no one was budging. Light sparks were crackling off our weapons as we stood there toe to toe with our weapons interlocked. Just when I started thinking about how cool this was, he force pushed me. It knocked me off balance, and I went several paces backwards. Oddly enough, beam from my lightsaber was shortened to a daggers length. He came in at me again, and I just kept parrying everything he had to throw at me. As soon as he stopped, I hit the off switch and turned it back on. My weapon was at it's full length again and it was now my turn. I started swinging at him, and everything was connecting. I hit his weapon arm twice, but there was no damage. I stepped back and trusted right at that computer thing thats mounted on his chest, and dug in. I kept twisting the blade to make sure it got everything that was keeping him alive, and then I pulled up on the blade, and brought it back to my side. His whole suit from his chest to his face was now ruined. Half of his mask split off, and he looked like this guy I knew from school named Vic. I laughed as he dropped to the floor.

Wow, that dream was awesome, I gotta have one soon

The new badges are made, just waiting for an admin to upload them.

A few days ago I was in a regular LD, just minding my own business (i.e. jumping from a high platform with a pool cue in hand that I swung against a pool table on the landing which resulted in the breaking of the cue with a loud bang, it was pretty fun, and I had plans of banging a girl later too), when I thought of transforming the remains of a cue I had in hand into a lightsaber, that reminded me of the task of the month. The "I'm going to do the task" thought was instinctively followed by the stupid "gotta do the task quickly before the dream ends!!!" though, of course instantly the dream started losing substance and 15 seconds later I was awake.

Thanks. =|
