non-lucid

Hey guys,

This is my first DJ entry. In attempt to eventually reach lucid dreaming and after reading a lot here, I found I'm going to have to be able to remember my dreams consistently. So to do so, I implemented this on the side of my bed:


Now I previously have VERY rarely remembered anything from my dreams. Last night however, after saying "I will awake from my dreams and completely remember them" over and over to myself and also having my DreamJournal.txt on my desktop on my PC next to my bed, I found myself waking up twice in the night and typing into this text file. So here goes:

Dream 1:
I was in what appeared to be an airport waiting room with my Dad's best mate Tim and my Aunty R--- (both of whom live in England, I live in Australia. I immigrated when I was younger). The only other thing I remember from this is that I was eating a rather large cake that had LOADS of Smarties in it.

Dream 2:
I was in the room of one of the tripplets I went to high school with (I've not spoken to any of them in person in about 5 years) and J--- was talking about her new boyfriend who was a writer for a magazine. Her brother D--- was making fun of this and I was laughing along too. J--- was wearing a white T-shirt with some writing on it and she had lots of make-up on. D--- had straight, long-ish hair and was wearing a headband.

I think this is a step forward from not being able to remember anything at all

Thanks for reading guys. Any feedback is welcomed and appreciated.

Until next time,
Oblique
