non-lucid

I am going to a church because I think there is some sort of political event there, but it turns out there isn't one.
I am with two of my friends, at their house. One of them is eating mashed potatoes from her back pocket. I grab some, too, and lick my hand. (Right after this I wake up and notice that I did NOT lick my hand in my sleep, thank God.)
I am in my living room, and I do a flip without my hands. I am really excited and tell my mom about it. My mom then tells me that we are going on a nature walk, and it is going to be REALLY hot outside. I am wondering about this because it is the middle of winter. My friend then knocks on the patio door because it is locked, and I open it for her, telling her that ut really wasn't locked. I them tell her that we have to get ready for the nature walk. We are leaving for 20 minutes. My mom keeps telling me that she is not ready.
I wake up in a bed with one of my friends. She changes out of her PJs, and I notice that we both slept in jeans. A lady walks by and tells us to stay where we are. Then, I see another one of my friends walk past us going down a flight of stairs. Apparently to see Hillary Clinton. I know we are not allowed to leave the room we are in, but I dare myself to go.

I am partially at my church, and partially at Hogwarts. There are 4 different areas on the alter, and in each of the four different areas, there is one of each house. So, each area has all four houses in it, if that makes sense. I am then sorted into Ravenclaw, and Dumbledore(the first one) tells me something. I remember feeling very special that the headmaster decided to speak to me.
I am in my Spanish class. I walk up to a chair and sit on it. Somehow I have that memory that I was just "lost at sea" in the Spanish classroom, as though there was water underneath the chairs or something. I am joking around with my friends, saying that I liked to be "lost at sea" better than doing school work, because I didn't have to work. Me and my friend then go on our chromebooks, onto a google classroom assignment. It is a quiz about which house you are in for Hogwarts.
I am at school, right at the end of the day. The bell rings, and I pick up all my stuff. But, I keep dropping all my books and stuff. When I finally get a hold on them, the buses are already almost leaving, so without stopping at my locker to get my backpack, I race to the bus. The bus driver asks me why I don't have my backpack, so I tell her.
My brother and I are walking towards someone's house, apparently to return a dog that we dog-sitted for them.

Ok, last night was an interesting night, but you'll need some background information to understand it. In real life, I got up at 4:30 am to leave on a trip. I decided to go to sleep in the car so I could count that as a wbtb.
I don't remember much of my dreams from before I left, but after a left, it got pretty interesting.
I had a false awakening of me waking up and sitting up in bed. My sister is just waking up too, but for some reason she says that she is going to take a snooze on the couch. I check my watch and see that the time is 4:11. I am confused, I thought we had already left. I wonder why I am not in the car. Then I say, "That can only mean one thing!" And I do an RC. I stick my finger through my hand, and what do you know? I'm dreaming. At that moment, I feel extremely happy. I pinch my nose and take a long breath. (As RelaxAndDream suggested.) It feels really cool. I guess I forget my LDing plan, because I decide to fly out of my house through the ceiling. I try it, and the ceiling sort of breaks apart, but I can't fly through it. Instead, I decide to fly around in my living room. (It's really tall and has a slanted ceiling.) I start to fly, and I'm really happy because my dad is watching, cheering me on, and I'm not falling. Sometime in the middle of my flight I pinch my nose and breath again. Once I am finish I land on my back on the ground, and greet my dad. He looks like Dumbledore, but is wearing my dad's sweatshirt. I try to transform him completly into Dumbledore, but it doesn't work. (I'm loosing my lucidity at this point.)
I then have a false awakening, this time in the car on our trip. We stop at a gas station to go to the bathroom, but we accidentally go into the dining room. Because of this, dad lets us get breakfast there. I get a waffle and a cup of cherries.

Sorry I'm so late! I'm currently in a hotel right now, so this is going to be a quick entry.

Me and my friend are in gym class, only it is outside, in front of my school. We are doing handstands.
I am in the basement at my church, and I see a little girl names Alysa who says that she wants to make mattresses. (She is really talking about mittens.)
A am on vacation with my family, and we are organizing the luggage in our car. Our dad then tells us that we are going to GA, which is Great America. We are all very excited about this.
I'm in the car with my brother, sister and dad. My dad has three dogs with him that he just bought, and I ask him if I can hold one. He says that I can't, that the dogs are for him, my sister, and brother. I'm very angry at this.

I am in the culdesac, right on the edge of my driveway. Then I spot a giant drone flying around just feet above the ground. I think about how it is invading my privacy.
I am at my church youth group, although it is in my kitchen. My brother is sitting there, laughing so hard, sounding like he's drunk on soda and candy. I get a plastic water bottle and open it, but start laughing extremely hard because it spills all over me. I hand the water bottle to the youth minister and go upstairs to dry off. I remember being afraid of going upstairs alone, but do it anyways. When I get to my bedroom, instead of getting a towel, I choose from a stack of Monk books to read, and I bring one back downstairs.
It is in the same dream, but me, my sister and mom are playing a card game called "detective" in our basement. In the game we each get different characters, and when I peeked at my sister's cards, I saw that we were both policemen. My mom revealed that she was someone with the last name of Brown.
I am on a rollar coaster with two of my friends. I remember opening my eyes and seeing the world far below. I then notice that we don't really have anything supporting us besides our legs clinging onto the cart, but I don't really care. A bit later I open my eyes and see my house from over head. Then we somehow land in the living room in my house, and I think about how cool it was to be able to drop us off right into my house.
I am in my literacy teacher's room, only it is not his classroom. It's my social studies room. But anyways, he gave me a piece of crumpled up paper, and told me to give it back to him at the end of the day. I say OK and start walking away, but then realize that I have to leave early, so I walk back to his class and give him the paper. I think he will be angry at me for not giving it to him at the right time, but he doesn't care. I walk to my locker and hear two teachers singing to the Farewell song from Sound Of Music.

These are my earliest dream recalls I can remember. They were from back in kindergarten.
My class was taking a field trip to a muesuem that cars were driving through. A little bit later we were walking in the streets of a city. I remember seeing a cat trap with a man trapped inside. It was Sam, the kindergarten helper at school. He was begging for help, but none of us would help him.
The other dream was more vivid, and probably the most scary dream I have ever had in my life. (I don't get nightmares, or just don't remember them.) I was at one of those hotel pools, standing on the edge of the pool. There was a man on the other side of the pool, only he was more like a pirate. He was not exactly a person, more like a picture on the wall. He began talking to me. "I bet I could smile and scare you with it."
I replied, "I don't think so."
He then swooped over to me and smiled. It was a scary smile, that's all I remember. I then fell into the pool and tried to swim out, but I couldn't figure out which way was up or down. I was trapped.
I think this next part was from the same night as the last dream, but not completely sure.
I was half at a carnival, half at my house on the driveway. The pirate man came up to me and grabbed me. I tried to scream, but couldn't.

My family and I are going on one of our trips to Iowa. We're on a dock on a lake, just sitting there and enjoying ourselves. Then my mom comes and tells us that someone had been shot at just now. We are all very surprised and interested.
We are still on the Iowa trip, this time on an off ramp on a Freeway. We stop at a Pick 'n save parking lot to go to use the bathrooms. All of us get out of the car, and when we walk in, I remember seeing a sort of pharmacy place on the left. My sister and I walk to the back of the store, into the girl's bathroom. It is not a normal bathroom, though. It is a sort of hallway, and the way to lock it is by pressing down a switch in replacement of the doorknob. I hear my sister leaving when, you know, I'm doing my stuff, and I yell to her something about CDs and disks.
Ok, STILL in Iowa, same trip except for just with me, my brother and my dad. We are driving around in a small town, looking for a Pizza Ranch to go to.
Stilllll in Iowa. My mom and I are on a beach, and I'm attempting to do handstands. It then transforms into my yard, and we are having a snowball fight. I remember noticing that half of the yard didn't even have snow. RC (I wish.)
Stilllll in Iowa. I walk into a hotel room and see two maids there. That's all I remember.
There was something else I remember. It was something about a man who is strong. I THINK it was my Uncle, not completely sure.

This is gunna be shorter because I accidentally deleted it all,and I'm too lazy to re-type everythihng again.
I'm at last night's Democratic debate, but the candidates aren't there, in their place are two sets of three kids that are going to speak. I'm wondering if kids can really go up there and act like politicians. When they start speaking, the people in the audience star chanting "really" and the moderator throws two pieces of candy to the people in the audience. When I leave, I see my grandma and my old music teacher. I start running away from my music teacher (because I hate her) and then turn around and go back to my grandma.
False Awakening:
I wake up and do my usual morning routine: eat breakfast, unload the dishwasher and blah blah blah. I am really excited because I am thinking that today school will be canceled, so I keep checking the school website. I think that school is canceled because of a post I see on the school website, but I realize that it actually says something about "pigs and "1008" 1008 is apparently the year of when it was posted, so I was wondering if my school was THAT old.
Anyways, we still have to go to school, so my mom is driving me and my sister to her friends house to pick her up. We have to pick up her two sisters too, both of which are wearing gymnastics leotards. I am wondering why we are picking them up now, because I thought we were going to get them during the summer time. (In real life we're planning a trip with her in the summer)
Quick note: I was just realizing that ever sense I have bee working on having LDs, my dreams have become more realistic, AND I am questioning unrealistic things that happen in them.
Finally for once, I don't have a dream about my fish!!!!

My mom and I are on a ship, but not really on it. We are trying to get out if it, but we are using monkey bar like things to get around. They seem to go on forever, and they go across a few feet, then we have to slide down, and then there is another set of "monkey bars." These monkey bars, however, are really unsturdy, and I tell my mom that I am afraid to cross. She tells me that these are the last set of them, and no matter what I do, a river of water will flow out and flood everything. She tells me to go "the cookie route" which apparently is right. I swing on the monkey bars to the right, and suddenly we are in our house, in the aftermath of a flood. I see my betta laying on the ground, so I pick him up and put him in water. He seems to be moving, which surprises me that he is still alive. My sister is all sad because one of our hamsters is dead. I was pretty happy that he was dead.
Ok, background knowledge needed here. I am NOT some sort of animal hater. It's just that once two of our four hamsters die, my sister and I will be allowed to get pet rats. So in my dream I was thinking "one down, one more to go" because I wanted to get the rats sooner. (I checked this morning to see if the hamsters were alive. They were.)
I am in the middle of some sort of video game. It is winter and snowy, and I am in the hills. The game is that I have to keep the car/snowmobile going over the hills. I just have to press the arrow keys on my keyboard, which I do. The car/snowmobile never falls off the hills, which gives me satisfaction.
I am at Pick 'n save, and a boy my sister used to like is there, giving out bread samples. He gives me one, but for some reason, I am suspicious of it. I walk over to a group of people, and tell them that I think it is really suspicious. They tell me that there is a security camera directed at the boy that I can watch. I ask them where it is, and they tell me it is on the side of my house. At this point the scene transfers to my house in the summertime. I say some joke about buying Harry Potter merchandise, and the dream ends.
My family is at a restaurant. We sit down, having just bought a thing of pizza. My mom tells me to go up to the buffet and get her a salad. I am extremely annoyed, but I do it anyway. All I remember after that is getting nacho sauce and putting it on the lettuce.
I am at my church with two of my friends, and we are getting doughnuts. For some reason I am mad at them. I get a doughnut, but realize that in two minutes I have to go and teach the kindergartners. I remember being sad that I can't eat my doughnut.

I'm really sorry if I already posted this, I was having difficulties.
Two nights ago was amazing, guys! Not only did I fill up more then I ever have in my dream journal in one night, but I had my first goodish lucid dream! I'll cut out the less main dreams and spare you the details. But, anywhoo, on with the dreams!
My dad and I are at a college library, and I'm looking for Percy Jackson books. For some reason the shelves are all disorganized and the books aren't there. My dad just tells me to check out a different book rather then to spend any more time looking, so I do.
My sister and I are going into this aquarium museum thingy, and we see our Uncle and Aunt who are currently not on speaking terms with the rest of the family. I hear the uncle say to the aunt "there they are" so me and my sister hurry away quickly. I then realize that we passed the betta exhibit, so I tell my sister we have to go back to see it. She says no, so I go alone. A little bit later, or maybe it's just the next dream, but I am Hermione with Ron and Harry in The Deathly Hallows. I cast the hex on Harry so that his face looks disfigured. Then I am in my church, and I throw a pencil into the baptismal font. I am still Hermione, and Bellatrix is there. For some reason, Harry and I want to hide some sort of ribbon from her, so I pretend to faint while really sticking the ribbon into a garbage bag. She realizes what I did, and makes Harry throw the garbage outside. Then I get worried that Harry will dispose of the garbage in the wrong way, so I go outside to help him throw out the garbage. Instead of finding Harry, I find my friends who are raking someone's yard. There is a bird nest in the yard, and a chick flies out of it. We are all really interested and play with it and pet it and stuff.
Ok, here's the good stuff.
It is night and my family and I are waiting for my grandma to come. A black truck stops in our driveway, but it isn't grandma's. Mom tells us that we should escape, so we all run out the side garage door into the woods. We are not too far into the woods when I realize that the man from the truck is following us. We start running farther into the woods, and I notice that there are odd mansions in the woods. I don't question it too much though, and keep running. It is like we ran through a mirror, because we now are running towards our house again. There are words on the bottom of the deck (we have a really high deck) that say "wand" and "magic" and I think that maybe I can jump onto the deck because of that, but I can't. I run up the stairs of the deck, and Draco Malfoy is there with a plastic wand along with someone else with a stick for a wand. They are pointed at me. I break them easily, and all the fear goes away. It is summertime and I am on the deck, my mom doing gardening nearby. I suddenly realize I am dreaming, maybe because of the warmth, I don't know. I think about what I should do, I didn't have a plan. I decide just to examine the world around me, and I realize several things. 1) My mom is wearing a short sleeved orange shirt. 2) I think about what just happened in the dream. 3) The world seems SO real it is uncanny. 4) I remember the basic task of the month, to read a book title. I turn around, and a binder is sitting there. I read the title on it, but it is too long, and I think I won't be able to remember it, so I find a different book. This one is a notebook. It has two words in the title, but unfortunately I can't remember them, either. Right after this, I forget I am dreaming
Oh, I forgot to say this. Earlier that night before the LD, I had a dream that I was LDing, so when I had the real LD, I made sure I wasn't dreaming about a LD before I started doing anything.
If anyone is wondering, I have a complete LDing plan all set and ready now.

Really bad recall this morning.
I have a brief memory of being at a bowling ally with my friend. People there were teaching us how to choose the right ball for us. At one point, someone slammed the bowling ball really hard onto the ground.
I wake up thinking about yesterday's science homework, and something to do with defining the word money.
When I was trying to remember my dreams, I kept feeling like I was getting really close to remembering, but unfortunately couldn't remember any more.

Not much time to write anything right now so I'm gunna skip out on the details.
I was at my friend's house for a party, and saw someone from school that I REALLLY don't like. I started to get into a fight with him because he said that he thought his family was a "landmark" which was weird.
I was in my bathroom, wearing only a shirt. My sister walked in the house saying that our cousins came over, and I told them not to come in the bathroom because I wasn't wearing anything. We then ate dinner, and I asked why my aunt and uncle weren't there. My dad said that they went to church, and I got mad at him for talking about church and stuff too much.
Ok guys, I'm REALLY sorry about the short entry, I don't have enough time.

I am at Walmart with my brother and sister. My mom gave me $1.25 to spend on buying things for my fish. I found a lady I recognize who works at Petco, but she is talking with another person. I state loudly that the stuff she has is too expensive, and I walk away. I can't find the real fish/pet section, though, and I tell my brother that. He shows me a map and tells me that I can import llamas from South America or Africa instead. I laugh, telling him it is illegal.
I am at Walmart, (completely different dream) in the pet section, and I see a cute guinea pig named Willow there, in a tiny cage. The sign by the cage says she has been there for 4-7 years. I remember feeling really bad, and thinking my parents wouldn't let me get anymore pets. I tell a little girl nearby that she should keep the guinea pig.
I am in the basement of a house, piece of broken wall surrounding me. I see a sort of secret door in the wall, and I remember thinking it is some sort of puzzle/mystery. I go upstairs, and my dad asks me what my favorite part of our new bathroom is. I run into the bathroom, and tell him that it is the floor. The floor is sparkly tile with bead-like things on the corners. When you walk in, I think there were two sinks, one on either side. The toilet is on the far left side, along with one of those kiddie toilet seats. I remember going to the bathroom, and trapping a doll or baby or something underneath the kiddie toilet seat. (If only I had realized how different it is from the real one!) Sometime later, I am out of the bathroom, and I am watching a video of migrants walking in a line, one Mexican, and the others are white. I start walking with a black girl down the white line. We are friends, and we are yelling for one of our other friends to join us. But, we can't find her. I tell the black girl to stay with me, and we walk into the building. I see the friend, who I recognize from school, and run into her arms and jump. She twirls me around and lifts me up. I end up doing a flip in the air, and landing somehow gracefully on my back.
Ok, I know I have a lot of dreams about my bettas, but hears another one. I am watching one of my bettas, and I notice that he is sitting above the water. Scared, I quickly push his head down, and then the rest of his body. For some reason he is in a little bag, and when I first saw him, he was in a little container. (I realized it was strange in my dream.) My mom comes along, and I tell her that we need to get a bigger tank for Bob(the betta).
I don't know why, but the dream about the bathroom seemed to stand out the most to me. I feel like it's really important.

Ok, not the best recall last night.
It was Christmas and My literacy teacher gave me the third Harry Potter movie. It had three pictures of Daniel Radcliffe on it, one large and in the front, one smaller in the middle, and the smallest in the back. It also went back by age. (Largest was the oldest, smallest was the youngest.) My parents were talking about watching it later, but I realized that they were talking about the first Harry Potter movie, which my brother had gotten. I then went into the kitchen and did something. I unfortunately can't remember what. When I walked back into the living room, everyone's presents were gone except for mine. I was thinking about how I'm always last to bring my stuff to my bedroom.
It was the morning and I was cooking frozen waffles in the toaster. My brother was wondering why I was cooking them for so long and I told him it was because I don't like having flimsy waffles. (I picked one up and demonstrated how floppy they were.) Once the waffles were done, I suggested eating ice cream, but then remembered that we had eaten it the night before. (I really did eat ice cream last night.)
My friend was telling me about a boy from Bratayley(really someone named Luke that goes to my school) who walked out of his house and started throwing bombs everywhere. He ran away and no one found him.

I was in the woods behind my house, and it was the summer time. I had a strawberry with me, and put it in a bird feeder for the butterflies to eat. I remember seeing a cardinal nearby, and imitating it's song. I walk farther into the woods, and see a pond. It starts closing in on me, and before I can get wet, I cling onto a tree, and climb up it. My dad then picks me up, and saves me from the water.
I am with one of my cousins near a pond, and we are fishing. He tells me that he is going to go in the water, and I am going to fish him out. I do that, but he comes out as a fish. A little bit later, all the fish turn into dogs, either small or big. They move into two different sides, the small dogs and the big dogs. The scene transforms into my basement, and I am on the small dogs side, ready to fight. My sister is on the big dogs side. We start throwing balls at each other, and my mom yells from upstairs at us to be quiet. We stop fighting, and the dogs aren't there anymore. I notice my parakeet, Sunny, laying as though sick dressed up in miniature clothes. I pick her up and take off the clothes, and she turns into Hermione. Ron and Lavender Brown are there too, and Hermione is refusing to talk to either of them. I walk into what is normally the exercise room in my house, but it is a dance room for Hogwarts. The song is about dementors, and everyone is dancing.
