Haha lol I knew that. I am just annoyed, you know. I completed the task of the month and got only 1 wing, and now this!

Yeah.... Same here (the ToTM part)

Anyway, here is the second ToTY. I have a lot of personal goals for my lucids... you can get important stuff like I did on some (more info in my journal)

Dinosaurs Sudden Death (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Six and last dream of the night. This one fully lucid, but the dream wanted badly to fade. I completed one of the tasks of the year

I was in the interior of a building. The floor was dark black and the walls were dark-wood color. The building was almost empty. I felt that the dream started to fade The time I recorded last dream, I was about to wake up for this one. I saw the image vanishing and I realized that if the imaged faded, it would be a dream, so I spinned to recover the dream. I noted some bathrooms at the end of the building. I saw a very hot Dream Character half naked, I felt really tempted but the dream tried to fade before so I did not want to put it at risk. I knew I would wake up if I had sex with her.

I remembered to do the task of the year. I also remembered some personal goals, but that would require me to talk with DC and I was afraid to wake up if I did. I wanted to keep moving fast to avoid premature waking.

My dream started to fade again, so once more, I spun to recover it. I also did a few reality checks, all of them failed. I had twisted fingers and the thumb in the wrong place. After this, the dream tried to fade once more, so I spun and recovered it.

I wanted to do the ToTY fast. I went to the end of the building and saw a dead end. I decided to open a portal that it would bring me to the Dino era. I rose my hand and a black vortex appeared on the wall. It was dark, like a wormhole.







I jumped in, it was dark and I was afraid my dream would fade, so I keep spinning as I was traveling inside the vortex. I saw a rain-forest under my feet. It was sunny. My dream started to fade again. I spun more to stable it. It did. Now I was inside the rain-forest. I saw several dinosaurs around me. I looked at the sky and I saw a fireball coming very fast. It was a meteorite!







A second later, it hit the ground. The whole forest was turned into ashes. I also saw several dead dinosaurs. I realized I completed my 2nd task of the year and I was ready to wake up and finalize the dream (after all, my dream was trying to end anyway) I remembered the hot DC of before, so I said, well, why not.
I summoned her, and she appeared. She had black long hair and she had a perfect body. She wore blue shrink to fit jeans. She was gorgeous. I pulled down her pants and found out what I had to find (most of you know) I was glad and I had sex with her. The dream faded instantly, however, I had the right amount of time to finish.

I had a false awakening. I was at the Pata Negra store. It was a different store, not the real one. I wanted to go to the other room to write down my dream. When I was about to leave, the phone rang. I was worried I would forget the lucid. The phone rang with the same sound that the real phone in the store does. It was my boss. He said something about two new interviews for the restaurant. I could not understand him. I asked him to repeat a couple of times, but I was not able to understand him. I said, "Javier, I can't understand you, this phone is doing funny stuff, can you come to the store and tell me?" She replied, "Sure."

He came to the store and explained to me, "I am going to do two interviews for two potential employees for the restaurant, so do not go to the next room" I was frustrated and though if writing the dream on my phone would be worth it. My boss kept saying, "I also have a group interview in a couple of hours. It was Jaime's idea!" (In waking, I do not know who is Jaime) "I think is great to spot but employees and get rid of them!"

I asked my boss, "This has nothing to do with me, right?" He replied, "No, no, no, no. It's just for the restaurant. I told you many times that I am very happy with you, I trust you a lot and I do not want you to leave. Do not even think about that. It's just the restaurant's business." I felt good for his kind words and woke up.

I compleated part of the Task of the Year!!!

2120 something

My first task of the year is complete. I had a day off work so I decided to WILD. I woke up to my alarm going off at about 5:30am and got up to use the bathroom. I also read a couple of pages in my copy of a lucid dreaming book and went back to sleep about 20 mins later. As I drifted, I began to feel that familar feeling of dozing right back into REM. The visuals are amazing, almost like tuning into a TV station that starts as static but become clear in seconds. I didn't need to induce lucidity as I started the dream already knowing that I was asleep. Things cleared up once I started rubbing my hands and I noticed that the scene around me looked like something from the early Roman empire. The street was paved of tan cobble stones and the buildings kinda matched. I heard something behind me so I turned and I saw people entering a large building that was made of metal and had strange lights glowing around it. I asked one of the people walking toward it, what is inside? He told me I would have to wait to find out. I did not like the answer he gave me and I became frustrated. I consintrated on the next person and when they looked at me, to my surprise he looked identical to the last guy. I asked again, whats in there?
This time the man said "it's a ship". WHAT?! I ran for the "ship" and peeked in the huge entrace way where people were crowding to jam inside. There were balconies and giant picture screens along every wall and the crowd was frantic. I went inside and started asking people why they were so upset and why we were in this place. Before I could get a logical answer from them, the doors slamed shut and the entire structure started shaking. I felt like I was on one of those sim rides at Universal or something. So, I ran to the edge of the room toward an opening that I did not notice before and looked out/down. We were high above the earth and moving fast. I closed my eyes for a second and we were landed. When we came out we were in a futuristic setting, not a city just a community of strangly dressed long skinny people. One of them was walking with a crowd and he looked back and jestured for me to follow him. I looked down at myself and I was one of them, that felt weird. I looked at my hands and they were moving in a strange way like they were robot hands, twisting and bending at the joint, they were also twitching like haing a spasm like never before. I ignored that and followed. We entered a small room at the corner of a building and walked up a large flight of stairs. On the way up I asked the guy his name. He said his name was Carl and that I had travled into the future 962 years. At that point I remebered that I had some tasks to do and I figured this would be a good time to start. I asked him what year it was and he said twenty one twenty urrrggghhh. I asked again and could still not understand him. I asked if he knew how the world ended and he showed me to another room with a small screen on the wall. These rooms did not look like they belonged in the future. They looked like acient ruins made of stone with a couple of futuristic things here and there. I sat in front of the screen and his small fingers came by my face and pushed a button on my sholder. The screen came on and the picture showed people getting into ships just like the one I had rode in. They flew off and the world started to melt down right in front of me. The ocean dried up and comets started to crash onto the Earths surface. Magna and flames started shooting out like geysers violently and I felt the heat. I looked around and started to notice that I was not watching on a screen anymore, I was there! The sky turned dark green and opened. A huge monster sqeezed through and was now treading towards me. He was all black like a shadow and was the size of a skyscraper. I flew away. I remember the monster was walking like bigfoot. That all I can recall.

The pic is a good referance to the ship, just more domed and real big. Like the size of the Superdome, huge!

Will be caught up soon

What happens if we do all the TOTY? Just wondering

Then you get your orange name. You have to do all of them.

You also get access to the TOTM club for the entire year.

Never been into any competition dealing Lucids or any Astral experiences, quite frankly they just help feed the Ego sometimes which clouds everything. But this sounds fun. Ill get started on this within the next few days and see what I come back with :]

I don't see it as a competition against other members, more as a challenge to myself to reach these specific goals in a set amount of time. It's good for setting goals and reaching them. Speaking of that... I haven't been doing these recently... time to get back with it!

Totally agree. It is a personal goal rather than a competition. You have a whole year to do them.
Which btw... I have to post my third task done. I am at work and my journal software at home so I will do tonight or it will take me forever (10 dreams recalled, one fragmented and three lucids including the ToTY... a lot to write down)

I agree.

Other one

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was a pretty awesome night. My old record of dream recalled in a single night was 8, I rose that up to 11 Only one of this was a fragment. Three of these were lucid and on one of them I completed one of the Tasks of the Year.
Tenth of the night:

I tried to DEILD from the previous dream, but I moved in bed a little bit.

I was at home, I had a false awakening in my bed but my wife was awake. It was 7am time to wake up but I told her I was going back to bed. I went to the table were I write my dreams down. I started to write one and a friend plus my wife appeared.
My friend took of his shirt and he had a tattoo in his chest exactly the same than mine. Then, suddenly his tattoo changed into a different one, but with the same black and red colors. I found it odd and I realized a reality check.

I look at my hands and I had a lot of fingers so I became lucid. I said, "Ha! I knew it. That tat is not right. I am lucid, this is a dream." I took my blue backpack were I have my cards and left. I flew away and saw the moon up in the sky:







I gained some height and used my backpack as a jet pack. First I flew straight up and then straight. It was hard to fly with the jetpack. I almost hit a building. My backpack ran out of gas so I threw it away and kept flying on my own. I saw the moon and the dream started to fade. I spun and recovered the dream. Slowly the imagenery was back. I was getting out of the Earth and a voice said, "I know what you want. You want to go to Space." As I was exiting the Earth, instead of the moon, I saw another Earth. I though, "Not the Earth, I need the Moon!!!" The voice sounded again, "I know what you want. You want to see the Earth from a balcony at the moon." I was annoyed about that voice messing up. I saw myself approaching at the moon. I saw an odd building. The dream started to fade, so I had to recover it again.

I was inside a building. Everything was metallic and I saw flashes of light. I was like in a very old school first person shooting game, but I had no gun. I heard a lot of loud and annoying noises:







I saw red and blue arrows. Every few seconds, a hatchet with a blue arrow would close. I realized I was in a maze and I had to run to exit throughout the blue arrows. I suddenly saw armed soldiers, but they ignored me. I walked through them. I finally exited and I had a perfect vision on the moon. The voice said, "Oh. Now I know!" I saw a ship trying to land. It was Neil Armstrong!







I flew close to him and placed a flag with my own symbol. He was surprised when he saw me and he said, "You beat me here! How?" I laughed again and hit him softly in one of his shoulders. Then I forced myself to wake up. I knew I chained three lucids and I was entering the dangerous zone for recall. I woke up.

I want to know this is the first time I have a ToTY or ToTM completed without a FA after the lucid!

Missed Dream Signs:
- The False Awakening.

Dream Sign Noticed:
- The changeling tattoo.

Reality Check Performed:
- Hand Check.

Cool! T'was a fun read.

The sight of the Earth from space was, as usual, a magnificent sight. The continents were nothing like I am used to seeing them today, though. All of the continents were merged into one huge continent, known as Pangea. I could just imagine the dinosaurs roaming on the huge continent down there through the thick forests and savannas and… that was when I noticed the asteroid approaching. It was really quite close to the planet, moving through space at a quick pace.

The asteroid plunged through the atmosphere of the Earth and created a huge explosion on the surface that seemed to make a hole in the atmosphere itself, sending a wall of dust and debris up in all directions from the point of impact. My first thought would have been to destroy the asteroid before it hit the planet, but the spectacle of the impact was really something, too. We lingered only a short time longer before I opened a portal and we flew through it into the Delta Quadrant, into the area of space where we would find Voyager.

Oh, that sounds fun. Asteroid explosions are fun

Nice going Percy, you are close.

Thanks Ninja and Max
I have not been lately a lot focused into this ones, so now I am determined to finished them ASAP.

Since I just did the Advanced task of the month, I'll see if I can do any of the ToTY too, ehhe.

Phew, some awesome completions since I last visited! It seems I'm behind schedule, time to refocus.
