There was a party at St. George's in this open space beside some kind of house. Lots of people were there. There were fires all around, so it had this dark/light tribal theme. Some guy came in playing a guitar, and Shane started playing drums. A bunch of us were trying to figure out these pieces that needed to be put together in shape of the house (there were 3 pieces in total -_-) Anyway, after that, there was a private party upstairs in what seemed like Foley hall. Half the team was there, and we were talking and eating pizza. I went outside for a few minutes and came back, and they had microwaved all the pizza, burning a hole into the front side. It was still good though. I took two slices and everyone kept staring at me. In my defense, I was hungry. It still tasted good though.
I was in India, and some foreign ambassador was signing a deal about something. I went to pick friends up from the airport, but it was raining really hard, so I couldn't bring them back in the car. We hired a rickshaw, and I went ahead to scout on my dirt bike. I would scout, come back, and let them know if it was safe to proceed. We went through urban flooded areas and what seemed like a marsh. Then, at one place, I swerved to avoid a few kids on side of the road, and fell down. The kids wanted money but I was like lol nope. Then when we finally arrive at my place, the entire area is flooded, so they could only swim to my place, or take a boat. The area was basically a clearing, with forest all around it, and it was completely flooded with the most clear water I have ever seen btw. Then, they were stopped because they didn't fill out some XXX form at the airport, and they said they had to go all the way back there to fill it out. I said no, and told the ambassador guy if he could pull some strings, that would be great. I was talking to him, when I realize that they got the forms, and were filling them out at the moment. They were sall standing on what looked like a small island made of dried grass. Anyway, it was morning and I saw people making kayaks out of dried grass, and using them underwater- like submarines.
A flashback when I was writing this on my phone: A dream about a swimming pool- well, more like a deep fountain with lotus flower. I t was super deep, and somebody challenged me to a swim, so we did.
Flashback of a flashback that I had forgotten that i remembered while writing this ^ : Huge swimming pool, I am training there, instructor was hard on us. The pool was very deep, and I swam / dived/ held breath underwater.
Another flashback about this pool when I was writing this ^: What seemed like the stadium changing rooms, me and cuz were getting ready for a swim, something about a rupee, and someone not being allowed in. Then, we went into the pool. It was very shallow. I started swimming, there were a bunch of lifeguards stationed around. The pool was dark too.

Stuff from before that I forgot to put down: Medieval times. I was one of three princes. Last one was a pixie, but he was weird and shaped like a book. They sent us on this delivery mission. We fly on back of a dove. An eagle chases us around the castle. We deliver it anyway.
Then we go to this city (looked a lot like A’bd. He went to talk to this girl in his class who was super narcissistic. I could somehow listen to all her thoughts. I went back to get my bike and she thought I was spying on her. There was a LOT of rain and a flood was coming.
Having a lot of these flood dreams lately. must keep that in mind.

I have been having these...flashes for 2-3 days. Something related to the dream usually triggers it.
The red floor in ARC triggered this one yesterday. Some mansion. Classes there. Si fi on upper floor. First in rooms. Stairs in front. Mahagony- redwood. Something suspicious. Si-fi something. Basement old, crackling walls, yellow. Something in there.

Also, something about pills.

Nothing today. I was up for an hour at night, trying WILD
didnt work.

Mary married to old rich cheap guy, on a tour. I am in charge. Island, raise prices, old guy cancels tour. He dies, mary leaves. Island goes KKK. I go to a hospital. Suresh from heroes stitches me up. racist white kid, stuffs body down stairs, kicks it, bones breaking, racial arguments. I leave, go to other side of island.

I read a post on reddit about lucid dreaming. Decided to check it out. Went to r/luciddreaming and after some scavenging found some help.
Tried to recognize the semi-consciousness plane between consciousness and sleep. Kept thinking the whole time. My thoughts became more distorted as I fell more asleep. Felt the body become lax. Thinking efficiently became harder. It was like walking through knee deep water where you have to take a foot out every time you take a step. Once I achieved what I thought was the semi-consciousness I woke up (although I wasn’t really asleep).

Before I went to sleep last night, I visualized my campus (the spot between the student center and that door that leads to AA112- next to the benches). I had a dream that I was skating. I skated from the Science research building all the way to rez. The campus was distorted and larger than it is. It also had multiple sidewalks added to it where I could skate. It also had huge telephone poles which were connected by metal rods (making a kind of huge railing) which I skated on. Also some guy was throwing people’s backpacks around in front the space outside gym entrance.
I should add that I have been thinking about outdoor activities (biking, swimming and skating) a lot lately since exams are coming and I am in the apartment 24/7.
I should mention that I have been visualizing the place where you want to be in your dreams technique and also doing reality checks. I have been counting fingers when I see a door.

Didn’t remember any dreams when I woke up. Remembered one during the day. I was playing Civilization V on an iphone, and I was quite angry because it ran faster than my super-fast computer could make it run.
Did reality checks.

I was in the school- which seemed like a larger- heavily modified version of WHTC. I was hanging out with someone. We went to a huge space of cubicles to ask a girl something (girl was from my old physics class). Then I was on a trip with Ben, some other dude, this guy called Nuclear (good job not recognizing this dream sign, brain), Amalia, Alisia, and Mel. We were all sharing this huge room that was made up entirely of wood. It resembled a huge living room of some cabin. There was some problem with sleeping space as all we had were benches, and Nuclear said that he will go into the cafeteria and sleep there because they give out free fries and some other stuff to whoever sleeps there (again, good job not recognizing this sign, brain).
I was driving a moped that resembled a scooty in A’bd. I was driving happily. Then, I saw this guy with a big bike, and my moped merged together with his bike so that it was on bottom and bike was on top, and then we were both driving happily. Than, this cop saw us and busted the tire using his rifle. The guy told me to go on, and we un-merged the vehicles and I kept going while the cop was distracted by him. I got away and drove furiously for rest of the dream.
Throughout all my dreams tonignt (4) I remember making a mental note to remember the dream while in the dream. I did this multiple times. During the cabin dream, I remember making a mental note about remembering that one, and the one before it. I did this in other dreams too, but sadly, the other dreams faded away even before I woke up.
Doing RC whenever: I talk to someone, or walk through a door.

Dreamed that I was in an apartment complex- resembled a malo. There were racist terrorists, and they were trying to take everyone hostage and kill them. I disarmed one and killed him- others followed my lead and a firefight followed. I wiped a bunch with a grenade and we surrounded them. They were outnumbered at least 4 to 1 by the end. Then it shifted.
Also there was something about planes.

I find my dreams…longer. I still forget to do RC on time.

Dreamed about a bus ride from Ellesmere and Military to Markham. I was worried that buses wouldn’t run, but then I thought it will be ok since they were electric. The stop, however, was at a building that resembled an Indian court. Went into what seemed like a huge washroom (about 4x the meeting place). Saw Maulin there. Met family (demai side). I told them not to serve something in wedding reception since it was stale. Woke up.
I find myself forgetting the dreams. Need to keep a proper journal at bedside.
Doing more RCs, but not enough.

Dreamed that a bunch of people from other universities came over. I was showing two of them around (who turned out to be people I have known for 3 years- one of them was Moose from Step Up). We were walking through this huge park where people were playing various sports. We tried to play football and soccer and got kicked off the pitch. Then I said goodbye to them and went back (to what seemed like an enlarged version of the gym entrance near the student center. I entered the door on left and girls were getting ready for something. Saw the pair. Winked. Blushes followed. Then I came back and went through the other door. Turns out gals were getting ready for the weddings that were happening over here. Ben and Amalia got married; and some other couple; and a guy who looked like Simon Pegg. The first two left immediately for their honeymoon and Pegg guy was leaving the next day. I asked him if he wanted to party, he agreed and then I looked at the time. It was after 12. I said I needed sleep since I have exams and the dream shifted.
There was something about choosing the best toothbrush (out of the worst ones I’ve ever seen) in India’s bathroom. I remembered it when I picked up my toothbrush to brush my teeth.
I am having some difficulty remembering the dreams. Until I am half awake and still in bed, I remember nothing, and then the last dream comes flooding back to me. I also remember bits and pieces throughout the day- often connected to the activity (see toothbrush above).

Didn’t recall any dreams. Used the chrome RC extension yesterday. Maybe because of that (not remembering to do RC checks on MY OWN). Maybe because I kept visualizing a place I don’t have any real attachment to (lockers outside R-space).

Taking a break from this until exams are over.

Back at it. Had a dream last night that I was a minority amongst different colonies of middle-eastern-looking people. I was thrown in a jail/entertainment pit with a bunch of other dark-skinned people. We were tortured. I was lucky enough to have my turn last, and as they were starting, the colony was liberated by another peace-loving colony. They freed us and we became their guests. They gave us food, shelter, etc. as we prepared to walk into our freedom into the sunset.
I was in a temple that was surrounded by ocean. There was a living deity there. I was an adventurer, and had my team with me. There were also these two girls that kept fighting over me. I think one of them was a mermaid. I had to pass a test and go from one platform to another. There was a big gap between them that was filled with huge rotating circular sections of earth with different sized holes in them. I had to navigate through this sphere. I tried several times, but every time there was something that stopped me from going across. So, I got tired, and blew it up with dynamite, and jumped across the platform. The deity was impressed with the show, and he/she left the temple to see the outside world. I walked off into the sunset with those two annoying girls with my team following behind me.

Had 3 dreams, I remembered them all when I woke up, forgot to write them down, and now I remember nothing. I need a journal beside my bed.
10/5/2013
I tried FILD. I read about it right before I went to bed, and then when I woke up in middle of the night, I applied the finger technique. I began to fall asleep, but a small part of my brain was still conscious, doing the finger movement. I also think I experienced sleep paralysis briefly. It was a bit scary, but I remained calm. The transition was quite quick, and I landed in a dream where I was driving a car. But, I was still conscious. I did an RC, and then steered the car on the road. The dream was over quickly, and I actually felt it slipping away. I didn’t experience any other LD, and don’t remember any other dreams.
This was a major breakthrough- hopefully.
