    1. January 17, 2012 Detention

      by , 01-17-2012 at 12:26 PM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      After failing my WILD and getting some tips from Forceez, I tried to get some sleep. I had one dream, vivid and long too.

      Detention
      Non-Lucid: It's night in my high school. I'm going to my locker and realize I'm shirtless. I see some article of clothing lying in front of my locker, obviously must be my shirt. I pick it up, play around with it, they are red gym shorts. Time rewinds, I'm walking to my locker again. My brother is there, along with a bag of dirty clothes and a bag of dirty towels. (these are here because our washing machine is currently broken in real life) I pick up the bag of dirty towels but we're stopped by a bald man, he's taking us to a classroom that has a TV in it. We sit down, there's another person in the room but I down give them any thought. I ask him why he brought us here. He says he is on the police force, and that he is holding us here to show us what our crimes are doing (even though I haven't committed any of these crimes). The video plays, and I take the role of one of the people in the TV.
      It's night, I'm manning a gun on some sort of armored car. I think we are in Mexico, most likely tracking down drug cartels. The car in front of the one I'm in shoots into the windows of the buildings we are driving next to. Blood splats onto the windows. This continues for a short time until I find myself somewhere unknown.
      I'm no longer in the video, I'm in an abandoned house. I walk outside. (This area seems to be reoccurring, either that or I've visited this area in this one dream more than once and forgot) There's no grass here, in front of me is a pit (man made, more like a moat) beyond this is the town I know. A voice speaks to me, of a girl I know, she says "Truman can see it every time, crazy right?". I instantly know what she's talking about. On the far right of the pit is a barely visible staircase hidden by a bush and half buried. I run up it.
      I'm now behind a shed the shed has an opening in the back large enough to squeeze through. I do just that. I'm no in a little undeveloped area.
      Teleport again, I am in a shop. I realize I have to get back to that classroom or the officer is going to be pissed. I run out, it's raining, as I'm crossing the street (four way intersection) every single car stops. The rain stops falling too, and instead just floats where it was. I'm now running in slow motion, this is extremely frustrating for dream me. In front of me I see a Russian/gypsy woman crossing in front of me. She is speaking in gibberish and seems to be cussing at me (that was actually pretty creepy for me).
      Teleport again, I'm at the school. It's daytime now, but I don't care, I need to get to that classroom. But my friends will stop me, I have to avoid them. I go behind a large dumpster (that isn't there in real life) and as I'm about to make a run for is, two friends of mine (we'll call them John and Rachel) suddenly pop up in front of me. "HEYY JENOS! WHAT UP?!" they're smiling like the actors from the Truman Show. I shout at the top of my lungs "Get out of my way, I need to get inside!!" I run inside. The dream ends here and enters into another one.

    2. Januray 17,2012 Complete failure

      by , 01-17-2012 at 07:55 AM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      Successfully woke up at 1 A.M. no dream recall at all and ran into some trouble.

      WILD attempt #4
      Awake: My alarm wakes me up at 2 A.M. 2 hours after I fall asleep (had some trouble sleeping). I feel awake, too awake after only 2 hours of sleep. I get up, go to the fridge and pull out some juice and take a swig. I look at the window. Snow, the first of the season. it looks peaceful in our little neighborhood. I go back to bed. It's been four minutes since I've woken up, perfect according to many guides. I put my earphones in and turn on the white noise, lie down... still. I do this for an hour and get absolutely nowhere. Tonight was especially frustrating, I'm hoping for better ones in the future.

    3. January 16, 2012 WILD attempt #3

      by , 01-16-2012 at 07:51 PM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      I downloaded an app on my phone that was supposed to help with meditation. Well it did clear my mind and all that good stuff. But I still haven't gotten any success.

      WILD attempt #3
      Awake: I lie down in bed, shades drawn. It's dark, quite, comfortably warm, ideal conditions. I turn on the app, it's playing ocean sounds. I lie still, within minutes my legs are numb (This so far is always the first thing to happen). This is followed by my right arm, and I never remember when my left arm goes numb. I start seeing the green lights again, they move like a wax in a lava lamp. They go away quickly. I lie still for awhile and eventually feel a sensation at my feet. It feels like a mix of heat, water, and my feet dissolving. It doesn't spread any further. I try to envision myself sinking into my bed. No dice. I keep myself semi-focused on the ocean sounds throughout it all, not a thought at all except for a song I like playing itself in the back of my head. The green lights come back again, it makes only one round this time and fades away. I'm back to numb feet and only a semi-numb right hand. At thirty minutes in, I give up. I do a reality check. Alas, still awake.

    4. January 16, 2012 Diseased?

      by , 01-16-2012 at 02:39 PM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      I tried to do MILD last night but no luck, and my alarm didn't go off to do WILD for some reason. So I'm still trying to get there


      Some kind of disease
      Non-Lucid: I'm lying somewhere but I don't know where. Maybe it is a hospital, maybe the cafeteria again. Earlier in the dream I was attempting to do something, but I don't remember what. I have these yellow Bubo like things all over my body, and one massive one on my stomach. I'm just lying there and then I'm woken up. (In real life).

    5. January 15, 2012 Pursuit in Italy

      by , 01-15-2012 at 05:34 PM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      This dream happened a few months ago, but I wanted to write it down because it's my most vividly remembered dream so far. And also quite interesting.

      Non-lucid: Don't ask me how i know it was Italy, I just knew. I am sitting in a car in an alleyway. It's really bright out, in fact, there are no shadows at all. The car takes off full speed, the person in front driving through what looks like a market-place. The local DC's are getting angry with the reckless driving, but most ignore it. Next thing I know I'm standing in the center of town with a good friend of mine. We seen a man on a horse with a sword and bolt. The man on the horse, who's wearing black robes and whose face I don't remember (I think he was a representation of "The man in black" from Stephen Kings "The Dark Tower" which I am currently reading), hacks at my friends head. She's dead, I begin to run over to her, but then turn and run the other way as I realize the the man is now coming after me. Sure enough, I'm stabbed right in the back of the head. I fall stomach to the ground, and this is where the dream get's weird.
      I start rising out of my body, spiraling upwards as the man rides away. Now I'm in some giant, blueish cube. Before I go any further, I'd like to point out that I am an atheist. In this cube, there are many floating, clear platforms with people climbing up them, some sort of "stairway to heaven" I guess. I huge man, and I mean absolutely massive, speaks to me. My best guess is that he was a representation of God, because I constantly find myself questioning my own beliefs. He tells me that I can either go back to earth and spend eternity as a spirit there, or I can spend eternity in the cube. I choose Earth because, hey, at least there's things to watch there. The dream ends immediately after I choose earth, and I wake up.

    6. January 15, 2012 Fragment and WILD attempt

      by , 01-15-2012 at 02:39 PM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      Lost dream
      Non-Lucid: I was somewhere outdoors. I don't remember what I was doing, who I was with (if anyone) or why.
      Awake: I wake up and lose the memory of the dream after attempting the second WILD.

      WILD attempt #1
      Awake: Wake up from my alarm, get out of bed and walk to my door. As I open it I remember it isn't a school day and remember why I woke up so early on a Sunday. Go back to bed but fall asleep.

      In the Cafeteria
      Non-Lucid: I was in my high schools cafeteria looking through a pamphlet, or maybe a year book. I came across an odd group that was named something along the lines of "school year-book porn". I thought this was odd, but continued in non-lucidity. After talking to some people (I don't remember this part of the dream but I feel like I know it happened) I woke up.

      WILD Attempt #2
      Awake: I wake up around 8 A.M. and it's fairly bright out but it shouldn't matter much, my window is small. I close my eyes and concentrate on my breathing. I count every breath I take.
      Hypnotic Hallucinations?: First sign of HH I start seeing green strips of light going across my left eye (don't ask me how I know, I just know it was only my left one). My arms and legs go numb and feel heavy. Now the green strips turn into large green rings that quickly shrink, only one visible at a time, all appear and shrink in the same spot. There is a bubbling sound, like after you flush a toilet, it goes on for awhile but I don't know if it was real or part of the hallucinations. I feel something in my hand, it feels like someone is rolling a spherical object in it. My heart rate quickens and I remember to take deep breaths, it won't work if I get excited. The rings stop and turn into little balls coming from the right and falling eventually (still green, still one at a time) I start seeing a white glare coming from the bottom, but I think it was just my eyes opening a bit. After this goes on for a bit the rings come back and I can feel just how heavy my arms and legs are.
      Awake: Everything except the numbness goes away and I decide that either I'm in a dream or I've failed. I open my eyes and count my fingers. Eleven... recount... ten. I try to push one hand through the other, no dice. Pinch my nose and breathe, nothing. But at least I got to HH, maybe I was just too awake.

    7. January 14, 2012 Two fragments

      by , 01-15-2012 at 02:18 AM (Jenos's Garden of Dreams)
      Summer in new home
      Non-lucid: I was wearing typical summer clothes (khaki shorts and a black t-shirt) in our new house which we haven't had a summer in yet.
      I was in the living room with my brother next to me, but I don't recall which one. The living room was a slightly different shape and lacking some furniture, but the color, shape, and location were the same. My brother and I weren't talking, just standing there looking out the window. Was a nice day out, sunny and warm. The dream goes on but that's all that I remember.

      Group in a field
      Non-lucid: I was walking in a field. Nothing special about the field that stood out, just some grass and trees. It was a cloudy day and ahead of me was a group of people. Some of them I recognized even though none were facing me. Someones pants fell down and then my alarm went off.
