Dream 1

I was trying to get a little girl to stop bothering me.
I was throwing Steven Universe around since Pearl turned evil.
I was afraid to go into a computer class with anime characters in it because something was turning them into mush
I was singing with kokkiri San from Gugure kokkiri San in Japanese and english.

Dream 2

My mom was visiting someone but something went wrong so I had to battle them
I was eating pizza with my brother and dad
I was flying and hiding from kids at a park. It was nighttime and I used a pole to block their stones than ran to my house.

In hotel, using elevator. Old couple budges in front of me and I get pissed but instead tell them to have a happy holiday. We end up in a smaller arena with a wrestling ring in the middle surrounded by immediate seating that continuously goes up like steps. Watched a match where this crippled wrestler was beating on another guy. Went out to the ocean and then kinda forgot where this dream all went.

Another one I remember being in a house where my friend Todd was there. I was really distracted and he was talking with the lady who owned the house about remodeling. There were various colors on the walls and even some makeshift wallpaper. What he told her was nice I thought was too bold.

Went to Costco 3 minutes till closing. (can't believe I didn't have a reality check when looking at this clock!) I found it strange that all the lights were already turned off. A man was at the door like he was a guard almost. None the less, they let me in. Originally I was there to find a folding chair. I ended up looking through their fruit produce. I couldn't find any grapes. I went to the cashier and saw an old friend of mine there, Lisa. We ended up driving through the country. It was a super tiny car. I was cruising up and down these hills. Over time, my vision started to go as if I had glasses on that were fogging up. I got scared and pulled over eventually when I couldn't see anything at all. When my vision came back, I was at an intersection with a semi right behind me.

i was with some girl who had no legs after finishing a game of settlers of cattan with friends. then we went on a car ride/ motor cycle ride whre we got lost and had to change a tirie

I was paragliding along my street, up and down. At first I was going backwards, but then I realised I had to turn around. I landed and then started flying forward. I was having so much fun that I went too far away and got too close to the end of the street, where there was a very agitated sea and some very strong winds. I understood that was dangerous, so I landed again and started running the other way. Once I was back I realised that was non-sense, so I held my hand up towards the sky and counted seven fingers. I shouted: "boom, lucid!" and I remembered the mantra I repeat in my lucids: "all of my dreams are lucid". Then, I remembered about the two basic lucid tasks I had read on the forum. The first one was to hit a DC with a snowball. I saw a friend of mine, so I decided to start a snow fight with her, despite there wasn't any snow. I looked at my hand and tried to make a snowball appear. She noticed what I was doing, so she dug her hands into the wall of chalk, made a snowball out of it and threw it at me. It behaved as though it was snow, so I gathered as much as I could and threw it back at her, without hitting her. This whole thing repeated a couple of times until I finally hit her. She looked at me like: "really? Was it that hard to aim well?"

Then, I went for the second task, giving a DC a lump of coal as a present. I entered my house and saw some family members. Again, I looked at my hand and tried my hardest to make some coal appear, but it didn't. I must've been at a low level of consciousness, because the dream wasn't behaving the way I expected it to. Regardless, I wasn't willing to quit, so I approached my grandma and held out my empty hand to her. She reacted as though I had a gift on my hand, and when she held it, something appeared on her hand. It was cube-shaped and wrapped in paper, so I assumed it was the coal lump. She unwrapped it and it did look like coal, but she opened it as if it was a box and took a necklace out of it. I was taken aback.

I only got around 4 hours of sleep last night, but the dreams were amazing.
I was Miksa, from Helix, standing at the edge of a floating island. There were people around me. We argued about an affair and a safe house, betrayal and the likes, then I jumped off the edge. I was falling quickly, looking at the roots pass me by. Survival instinct kicked in and I tried grabbing the roots but I couldn't hold on to one of them.
My fall started slowing, though, and I reached some ground safely. I was amazed at how warm it was down there (the surface was snowy).

I wanted to share my discovery but realized others had been down there at some point in history. There were iron and stone stoves- sort of like you'd see in Dwarves residences. It was a beautiful, primitive and secret place. The world though we floated over nothing, but there was more to our island home.
I climbed back up the roots and looked for my friends. They were gone. I looked for their cars, but those were gone too. There were roots growing upward from the edge and now I had to see where those led. I took off my shoes because IRL, I climb by sort of splaying my toes and "walking" the object.

Before I could start climbing, though I saw one of my friends "Peter" (who was actually "Auggie" from Covert Affairs). For some reason, I was naked and no longer Miksa but myself. He was in a state of shock and denial, saying over and over again that I wasn't real. I took his hands and placed them against my stomach to feel the warmth.

That's when I woke up.

Before then, I had disturbing dreams about pets eating other pets. Cats eating kittens? All I recall is the smaller animals were in agony. One of them had been scalped. Others were missing limbs. The bigger animals were starving, for some reason. Instead of letting the smaller ones deaths and suffering be in vain, I fed them to the larger ones. A few babies had hidden and were healthy. I spent the rest of the dream trying to hide them from the predators.

In yet another dream, I was having trouble with the RV and then driving somewhere and getting lost. HA! I remember being in a smaller car with a ginormous alligator in the road. He was causing accidents and tried swiping me.

I also barely recall, sneaking into a house by shimmying the water drain onto a sort of balcony. I used to do that IRL (but onto a ledge of our military house when I was about 7 years old).

Here’s another lucid dream (or OBE) from Aug 12, 2014. No LD last night, so I’ll add a memorable one from my dream journal.

I was lying in bed patiently waiting for the next dream to start. My mind was conscious, yet my body was asleep. I could feel violent vibrations originating in my torso and extending out to my limbs. These were coming in waves. I knew something was about to happen! Suddenly, somebody crawled into bed with me. It was my wife! I was a bit disappointed that she woke me up because I was just having ‘the vibrations’. I was sleeping in the guest room that night, because my CPAP machine was driving my wife nuts. CPAP, great for sleep, hard on romance. She didn’t say anything to me, we just snuggled for a bit, and then she moved over to the other bed. Little did I know this was a false awakening? To my surprise, my dear daughter then crawled into bed beside me! Seeing my daughter made me instantly lucid. We snuggled for a bit, and then I told her that mom’s in the other bed, can you see her? She looked at the other bed, and said, “No.” I then looked, and sure enough, my wife wasn’t there. I then tickled my daughter’s stomach, and said nonsense words, like I use to say when she was a baby. My daughter laughed and giggled.

She then jumped out of bed, and asked that I follow her. Standing at the end of my bed, she reached up to grab something, and then passed me a gold fishing hook, with a golden spring around shank. This is a very unique hook. I looked at it, and it was the exact same as a hook I found a week earlier, stuck in my cabin’s front door! I was shocked by this! My daughter then asked me to come explore with her, and she opened my bedroom door and ran out. I was about to leave, and follow, but I could hear my CPAP mask leaking air on my face. I turned around and saw my body lying on the bed, asleep. I walked up to my body and adjusted the mask, so the leak would stop hissing. This worked! I turned around and ran for the door to follow my daughter. I got too excited, and then I woke up consciously from the LD, but my body was still asleep.

I stayed perfectly still and focussed on returning to my room, so I could go and explore with my daughter. This worked, but I was no longer lucid! I was lying in bed again, and then a black cat jumped up on my bed beside me. I petted the cat’s back and then its stomach. Btw, black cats are my dream sign, but I didn’t clue into the fact that I was dreaming. Darn, I should have done a reality check.

I went to my cabin, the weekend following this dream, and found that hook, and it now hangs in my bedroom shelf. Also, as an additional synchronicity, I was visiting a physic medium a week or two later, in an effort to connect with my daughter. The medium described this dream to me with some detail; without any input from me whatsoever, and she said my daughter wants me know this was an OBE, not a lucid dream, and she wanted me to follow her out of the bedroom. Well, who am I to argue with that, and why would I? I did manage to follow her, a few months later, in lucid dream titled, ‘A Little Noodles Please’.

Tried to wild and failed but still became lucid.

I was in a forest but the nature was different from my country. I looked around and it just didnt seem right. The trees just were really different. I looked around little bit and realized i was dreaming. I looked my hands and they looked really clear and focused. I looked around again while thinking what should i do. I saw mountain up ahead and decided to walk there. I climbed the mountain normally just to see how it would feel compared to reality physical toll on body. It felt excatly the same. So i started jumping from rock to rock and it felt really clumsy because it was so clear and i kind hesitated because of the realism of the dream. So i tried to jump faster until i decided to give up and flew to top of the mountain. I looked around and it was beautifull I saw only forest around me and really bright sun up ahead. I walk towards the edge of the mountain (It had flat surface). I thought i should see drop down and stop right before the ground. So i took one more step and began to fell really slowly. I tried to make my fall faster but my mind was stopping it. I decided to just fly as fast as i could.
As i started to increase my speed i just couldnt get faster certain point it was really slow. I felt the cool air and the tug in my stomach but i couldnt just push myself go to faster. I just stopped in the air looked around and thought how amazing and clear the dream was. It just were so vivid. I began to notice dream fading and tried to fly faster and grap something but the faded and faded until i saw everything really blurry i grapped the tree before i lost my vision and fell to darkness. I still felt the tree in my hand but nothing else everything were just dark. I the began to lost the sensation of the tree and i lost all sense and was second in a complete darkness and until i suddenly just darkness changed and i felt my body. I opened my eyes and was awake. This dream was one of those really vivid and high lucidity.

I was cleaning basement in my house when two bats flew inside through doors and hanged themselves on ceiling... I looked at them and I saw something malicious in them. Their eyes were slightly alight with red light. I thought- vampires... I let them be for time being as they didn't do anything. I returned to cleaning some mess(dust, saw dust, small scraps of paper and small pieces of wood) again.
Then third bat flew inside, this one was big. It was normal one. One bat (transformed vampire) flew startled away and big bat flew after him.
Second bat changed to vampire and ran to me- head first, mouth open, teeth glistening... I catched his head gently, changed his course slightly and smashed him hard head on into wall next to me. Vampire was greatly disoriented... He forgot what he wanted to do. He was shaking... I returned to cleaning. Vampire recovered after minute or so and attacked again... And I did the same as before and smashed him into wall with ever stronger force- vampire vanished into dark cloud and cloud evaporated into nothingness. I returned back to cleaning without thinking about what happened.

Note: whole time I felt to be in peace, relaxed... even through that incident with attacking vampire.

I need to start doing better again at recording my dreams. I have now had so many dreams that are lost forever.

Last Night's Dream:

I had some potted plants that I had sitting in a casserole type pan with water in it. I decided to move the plants. I was about to dump out the rest of the water from the pan when I noticed a baby fish in the water. I looked closer and saw another fish. I suddenly realized that the pan was full of tiny fish. I decided to pick up the pan to take it to my pond and let the fish out. As I picked up the pan I had trouble holding it steady and ended up dumping a bunch of the water out. I saw little fish all over my rug. I very carefully tried to pick up each tiny fish. When I thought I had them all, I tired to move the pan again. And again I splashed out a whole bunch of water and fish. I had a styrofoam cup. I tried decided to put some of the water and fish in that cup, so the pan wouldn't be as full. I kept picking up fish off the floor, soon my cup was full of dozens of little fish of all different kinds.

Dream 1

I was on a trip with a group of people who were bad guys I think. We stopped at a place where there were people I knew and people I didn't know. I walked to a couple of people I use to see and said "Hey guys. Guess its time for me to sit down and pretend that you don't notice me again" than I sat down and tried turning on a television.

As I was fiddling around with the T.V. I heard a religious man say to a boy that he couldn't do something he wanted to. I felt it wasn't fair and told him to look at my notebook filled with all the Japanese language I practiced over the years. Than told him that if you work hard enough you can achieve a fullfilling goal. But the guy just looked at me and said that it was useless stuff that I was wasting my time on.

I got mad and told him to tell me why but he didn't want to. Than another guy said that what I had in my book wasn't good enough. I flipped through the pages to prove him wrong but showed him a drawing of my anime walk cycle I did. I said "oops, wrong page". Than he said that none of my art work mattered in the art industry and that I was wasting my time.

I knew he was wrong because I knew what I needed to create good art without their help. I just needed inspiration so I could actually do it. I shouted at him again when suddenly a lady with a rope came and pulled my hands away by swinging it at my arms. She said that the guy was wrong and that she understood how hard it is to draw and the work that goes into it. I felt better after she said that and FA in a different room.

I was sitting on a bean bag chair with my old pink heart pillow. I thought I woke up from a nightmare cause my heart was beating really fast. I looked up trying to calm myself and noticed a huge anime picture of a little girl and something in hiragana. I didn't try reading it though. I was more focused on calming my fast heart beat. Than I woke up. My heart wasn't even beating fast.

Dream 2

I was inside a house that was suppose to be mine but wasn't. My family and step sister were there talking about a movie they were going to watch. I wanted to watch too but felt like going to the bathroom first. When I looked in the mirror I was surprised to see a big spot of bright purple paint on my left cheek. I went to the living room and asked my family "when did I get paint on me?" but they didn't know.

I didn't let that bother me though and decided to try to get the paint off my cheek and hands. But when I looked down I noticed that I was wearing a white t shirt and light purple paint was all over it too. It was confusing to me how random things were getting with the paint but as I thought about it in the bathroom I figured out that it was a dream.

In the bathroom I could see that the place was stretching out and soon appeared at a room filled with people who supposedly were apart of a secret organization. They were talking, smoking and planning out what they wanted to do next. (I think Marcus was there too talking about his invention to another character but i didn't really focus on his face. I just looked but was distracted by everything that was going on in the room)One of the guys dressed in long black jacket said he wanted to look for his girl. The others approved of his decision than went out the room. I followed him out but than looked back when he looked back at me.

I pretended to be stupid so he just turned the other way and started walking. This made me laugh but than he came back and looked at me. I pretended to be weird again and he just left. But than he came back and was like "wait a minute." than grabbed me and lifted me to the room. He than took 2 tanks of sleeping gas and threw it in a room,along with other dream characters.

I fell to the floor trying not to fall asleep with the gas and managed to stay awake. When I got up I noticed the place was starting to look like a fancy place where people could eat and hang out. I sat down and observed my surroundings. But what caught my attention the most was a song about coco puffs coming out of a radio. I pointed out how funny it was to a girl who approached me.

She agreed that it was funny and handed me a bowl of cooked beef. I was going to eat it but than she asked me " What do you think of this vast universe you are in now?" I thought about it and played with the beef in the bowl. I could see a portal opening up in the bowl and tiny characters moving around. I didn't really know what to say and than the dream setting changed.

I was now in a room watching a preview for a new xialin showdow cartoon and a movie trailer of a boy who takes a sacred canoe in a Asian place to solve some sort of mystery about his life. I was thinking about what type of Asian movie this could have been than appeared outside in a city.

In the city I was trying to help a cartoon find their lost puppy. Although I felt the jaguar that had been released ate the dog already. We still kept looking for the puppy though. As we were walking I looked up at a fire escape and noticed 4 huge parakeets on it.

I asked the cartoon if they were harmless but than just decided to run. We ran into a subway and were safe because the birds couldn't fit in through the entrance. As we were walking the dream changed again.

I was now in a room with my mom,two other ladies,(I think they were drying their hair) a guy and two other guys that looked like twins. I was talking to one twin and he was making a joke or something. Than he gave me a green apple and asked how many classes i had. I said "Uh...I don't know...one."

Than he started laughing and making fun of how i said one. I said it was only on Mondays (This isn't really true though since I have more classes but on different days) than tried to eat the apple after that but it was covered by paper and stickers. The twin that made fun of me tried peeling the thing off his apple and started singing "Take it out, Take it out, Take it out." Than i woke up.

Hey All,

I just wanted to share something with you that's been messing with my dreaming. Whenever I write or journal before bed, no matter what I think about before I drift off to sleep I end up going to the places I write about. I don't know if anyone else has this issue but if they do, you are not alone my friend!

To fix this I'm going to make it a point to write out the dreams I want to have before sleeping. I'll let you know if this works.

I watched breaking bad which seem to have effect on my dream.
I was in very crooked house. There were like 6 floors. I was doing something at the basement dont remember what but somebody tried to shoot me. I began to ran with my friend to the 6th floor and this is were everything went weird. Each floor which we climbed seemed to change the house more crooked and colorful. It was like the crooked houses in amusment parks.
Each floor became more complicated and weirder. At the fifth floor the room was purple and there were no stares to 6th floor. The floor were really really bumby and there were these sudden drops. I saw a that we could climb sideways trough the wall to the 6th floor. We climbed to the doorway to the 6th floor which led outisde but when i looked back the guy who was chasing us found us and tried to shoot at me. I was outside but the guy shot me in the back but there was no pain. We started speaking about something with guy who shot me and my friend as i laid on my back in ground. I thought i propably was gonna die until i realized im immortal . I shot the guy who tried to kill us and just went to walk outside. I was half lucid at this point i allmost realized i was dreaming but dream logic convinced me that i couldnt die. My recall became pretty bad at this point.
I continued my dream with the idea i was immortal and went to see my friend. His whole family was in his place and we ate there and i dissed my friend how shitty cook he was. Somehow how i lottery ticket dont remember how and i told my friends mom that we were gonna win the jackpot. After that there was just boring dreams about normal life.

I'm trying putting a full line of space between my paragraphs.

I recall a very odd dream where I was staying with Varrick (from LOK) only he was a real person and not a cartoon. He accidentally unleashed this experimental gas into his house and everyone started running to escape.

Everyone got into the elevator. It was so full and it moved so slow that I decided to take the stairs. I ran down to what I thought was ground level but I couldn't find the exit outside. I was in this huge stucco complex with a glass dome over it. It was supposedly something Varrick had created; a small city for all of his workers and visitors. I continued running and eventually found the exit.

...

At the end of the dream everything became cartoon like again. In fact I think that I had escaped and was watching a cartoon. Varrick was flying in the air and the lower half of his body and legs were robotic; complete with rocket boots allowing flight. He laughed and stated indirectly that he was going to be a villain now.


I was on DV. I was looking at DJ entries I had posted the last couple days and they were all really long. I remember in one of them I had to scroll through three or four screens just to get through the non lucid portion of the dream, then another two or three screens for the lucid portion. It was all written in the way I would normally write a long dream. Dialogue with DCs, Couple of smileys here and there. A picture or two.

There were tons of comments on these bloated DJ entries too. I think the one with the most had 22 separate comments. None of them were replies from me or anything; they were all from different users.

Kinda funny that being on a dry spell this is the exact opposite of what my DJ entries end up looking like. (Though even if I wasn't on a dry spell my dreams have never been that long or complex... I sure wish they were... ) Though I wonder if I can use this little dream for autosuggestion...

In the last 30 days I logged 20 "dreams", 17 "fragments", and 2 LDS.

A measurable, month long goal related to this recall data:

"between 12/2 and 1/2 I will log at least 30 dreams and 5 Lucid dreams"

That allows for a 10% increase in "dream" recall and a 150% increase in the number of lucid dreams. I feel this is achievable as with "auto-pilot" LD practice and almost no effort being put into recall I was still getting an LD about once every 30 days. During this time I will also have more than a week of time during which I will be able to sleep longer than is typical and therefore be more courageous with my WBTB and MILD practice. I will re-read the sections of ETWOLD you mentioned as well.

My brother and I were going on a boat trip with my dad. The boat was kind of small and it looked a little like a a canoe. As my dad was packing supplies on, my brother and I went down to this area right next to a river. Also the river I was looking at was a dream sign. Then my brother Graeme and threw me in the water. He came in and pulled me under water (as a game). As he was pulling me I noticed that I was breathing. I still didn't become lucid from this.
