I meant (sarcastically) that I should get a prize for seeing what the task of the month is before the end of the month. Usually when I remember that I want to try a TOTM, it's around the 26th of whatever month it is, and by the time next month's task comes out I've forgotten that I wanted to check it.
Hopefully I'll have a dream to post before the end of the month. :content: I love that smiley.
The basic task seems boring to me, but I'll definitely try out the advanced task!
I so much want to complete TOTM ! Its jus that I haven't had a lot of LD lately :s
I believe this month I can do it !
This is the one with your REAL snowman, though it looked bad.Quote:
I go outside, and there just so happens to be snow ! I can do the TOTM! The snow was nice and packable. I wanted to make the snow form on its own with my "magic" hand, but it wasn't working. My sis DC was there and I asked her why, she said SOMETHING... So, I end up just doing it with my hands, but it looks small and not so great .
Looked pretty good, but it wasn't actually with snow.Quote:
I want to make a snowman, again for the TOTM, I wasn't satisfied with my previous one. I see a can of whipped cream...which is what I ended up using to make it. A few DCs near me seemed to be helping. I use it, and make three tiers of it, like you're supposed to, then made the smile and eyes and buttons with little squirts of it too, and it was complete. The middle of it ended up looking like shredded cheddar cheese, molded together. Much better then my previous snowman, but it wasn't with snow.
I did it! i did it!! :D :D
The beginner one, that is :P
My best LD yet! :D
I was on a little balcony, it was starry out, and i could see christmas lights twinkling in the distance, and snow on the ground. It was very beaufitul.
Then i wondered, what if this is a dream? and to test this theory i decided to see if i could fly. I jumped off the little balcony, and fell for a second, but then started to fly, it was so cool, my first acutally long flight while lucid, i looked down and saw the ground, clear as day, as i hung suspended.
I then flew for a bit, until a cute little garden clearing appeared below me. It was a circle with a little bird bath in the center. the birdbath, as well as the little circle bush surrounding it had colorful christmas lights on it. The ground was covered in snow.
I very slowly decended, trying not to lose my lucidity by going too fast. then i landed.
Looking at the pile of snow, i imagined the snow carving away from te snowman parts. then the three snowballs appeared and i assembled them. features suddenly appeared on the snoman, i could see everything incredibly clearly, all the little snowflakes that made up the snowman.
then i looked around, and marveled at the clarity, i looked up at the stars, it was so beautiful.
i thought about how after i was done here i would try to hijak santas sleigh.
suddenly another snowman came to life, and they started attacking each other
then i woke up :D
Nice job forever_waiting :D
Well, I have to say, this was the easiest lucid task I've ever attempted. The only thing that could be reasonably called a "hard" part was getting Lucid, which happens a few times a week for me; more often if I try to have a WILD every night.
I was in this weird shopping mall that was shaped like a tower. Not like the Water Tower in Chicago, but sort of misshapen, with bridges and passageways all over the place.
I remember those little replicating robots from the Stargate TV series were sort of making a half-assed invasion of the place, but no one really seemed to care.
I got lucid when I noticed that the drinking fountain wasn't quenching my thirst, even after drinking about a gallon or more of the stuff, and I was going to wake up to get water, but I remembered the task.
Hijacking the sleigh was actually the easy part. I decided to have Santa passing a window as I jumped through the glass. This didn't quite work, because he sort of slipped past me, but I flew after him and caught up easily. I grabbed Santa (who looked strangely like a chubby Nick Nolte) by the scruff of his coat, and tossed him overboard. I don't know what happened to him after that, and I don't really care.
Now, I sort of cheated for the snowman, depending on how you look at it. I pulled all of the snow off of a nearby sloped roof with my mind, and gathered it up into a vaguely conical pile. I rounded off the top, and carved him a neck and a waistline. I gave him a tomato nose (for some reason I was thinking snowmen were supposed to have tomato noses,) and made his eyes and mouth out of gravel from a nearby driveway.
By then, I had forgotten about being thirsty, and I went out looking for sex. That actually didn't work out very well, but I wasn't trying very hard, either.
When I woke up, I brushed my teeth again, and had a very tall glass of very cold water.:boogie:
Aww this is pants, i managed to wild last night. I was outside in the damned snow, my car was all wierd and different. But i remember there being alot of snow. I would have attempted this if i had of read it in time... Better luck next time lol. Hopefully i can WILD tonight too :)
I only completed half of the snowman before I knocked myself out of the dream. Here's the excerpt from my DJ.
..... I decide to try to build a snowman. For that I will need snow. I spin around and try to change to place where there is snow. Nothing happens. I try again trying to picture the place I already am covered in snow. This works.
Everything is white, covered in a deep blanket of snow. Since it doesn't snow enough where I live in RL I decide to build this snowman by hand instead of just summonsing it. I reach down and touch the snow. It is cold in my fingers. I create a ball and start rolling it across the ground. When I get a large enough base I begin to make the second part.
Instead of rolling another ball I decide to try "magically" creating one with the surrounding snow. I point at the ground and start making swirling motions. Snow starts to swirl around at the place I'm pointing at and begins to form the second ball. Suddenly everything starts to go black and I can't stabilize fast enough to save it.
I open my eyes and see my bedroom. I do a couple RCs but it's over.
Finally, I completed the advanced task!

I freaked and climbed up onto this flimsy tree, but somehow it was enough for him to stop his car, so he got out and started climbing after me. I jumped to a new, sturdier tree and so did he. He had no problems in keeping up.
I jumped out of the tree and started running away and he caught up to me. I turned around and I was running backwards and I shot bolts out of my hands at him.
And with that thought, I was lucid. I remembered there was something else I wanted to do with my hands while I was lucid. A power? No. I was still running. I looked at all the snow around me. Oh right! A snowman! I need to make a snowman!
I stopped and the DC didn’t pursue me any longer. I started trying to form the base, but the snow was soft and not packing. I hovered my hands over the snow and thought, “I can emanate heat from my hands, make the snow more moist and then it’ll pack.” It didn’t work. “Water!” I thought. “I need water!!”
Why I didn’t just produce water off my hands, I don’t know, because that disintegrated the dream, and I didn’t get to make the snowman. I tried to chain back in, but by this point, I’d been asleep 9 hours and had already woke up twice.
Oh well, try next month... you still got 2 days.
yeah...I can't really LD on command yet, it's still fairly random... if it happens, it happens, if it doesn't, there's always january!Quote:

In my dream I remembered that I needed to hijack Santa's sleigh so I flew away to find it. Having no idea how I was going to accomplish this I was delighted when it appeared in the distance and flew up along side of it. Santa was seated there wearing green and yellow (strangely) and looking jolly stupid when I unsuccessfully attempted to kick him out of his seat. I then tried again and again and eventually just had too roll him out of the slay. As it turns out Santa is just a decoration and the reindeer do all the work, so I didn't have to figure out how to drive :D.
Lol, nice Halfbaker. Taking procrastination to the extreme. :cool:
Procrastination to the extreme lol! Gz halfbaker and welcome to DV ;)
I am looking forward to seeing the task of Jan. and tasks of 2010 too :D Let's hope they will be up tonight :D
