I'm in a mall that resembles my school. There's tons of people all around me, some faces familiar and some not. It strikes me as weird that there's so many people around me and yet I have no one to talk to. Then it hits me that I am new to my school which explains my shyness but it doesn't explain other's lack of curiosity. I ignore the stupid little thought and keep moving when I stop at the sight of my "crush" as you can say. He's just there all alone looking around as if waiting for someone. Maybe that someone's me? But then again he doesn't know I exist. So I try to avoid him, but as I walk he seems to only get closer. Maybe he does know I exist after all? But then I see him lunge towards some other person of who I can't make out. Is it a girl or a guy? Curiosity gets the best me so I walk over and see who he's hugging because it obviously isn't me.
It's a girl. My heart drops.
I run towards the steps trying not to look back. Luckily when I give in there's two obese chicks behind me snickering loudly. I exhale unknowing I was holding my breath.
I keep moving forward hoping to find something to distract these frivolous thoughts and just as hope lost its way, I find a gigantic library with books shining the color of gold. My eyes start to water as I frolic towards a bookcase labeled, Romance.
How typical, right? I can't help that I have a huge heart for romance.
I grab a book and open it and just as I'm about to read the title the impossible comes knocking on my door and there he is, standing ever so beautifully in his skinny jeans just the right size and his blue Hollister jacket that always seems to appear in my dreams(ironic?).
I blink as I close the book and try to shield my face with my hand (I don't understand why I wouldn't just pretend to read the book) and hope that he doesn't notice me(but isn't it my dream for him to notice me?).
He's on the phone talking to someone now. He's talking awfully loud and I overhear him giving someone directions to pick him up. Unknowingly, I've been following him while trying to shield my face this entire time, but he doesn't seem to notice.
I see a car outside with a man on his phone and think maybe that's my crush's ride. So I find the strength to pick up an entire bookcase and place it right in front of the entrance/exit way. Then I hide and watch as he tries to get out, snickering to myself with my mouth covered. He looks pretty upset at this point so I manifest myself like a fairy godmother here to save the day and pick up the bookcase and place it where it was born. He smiles and says "thank you" and places a kiss on my forehead and walks away, ever so sweetly, to his ride while I stare, eyes wide and my mouth stuck in a capital "O", trying to comprehend what just happened.

Normal dream, lucid,

Dream 1.) I was Ina room when I remembered that I was just in bed. When I became lucid though I just woke up.

Dream 2.) I was doing mild, but fell asleep durring the visualization. However when I ended up in a dream I noticed some things from my visuilizarion for mild. This is when I became lucid. I'm at school ordering lunch and then I notice how nice and delicious the food is. I yell out that I'm lucid and go to take some food. When I do someone says that it will cost 2.50. I just simply reply with no, and I get to go by without paying. I don't remember the food, but I know that it was associated with breakfast. I go to sit down with my friends and ask one of them to get on of my friends. When he calls him his voice echos throughout the entire school. Then some other table across from us starts to talk with us.i then wake up from my mom telling me it's for school. I didn't go because I was a little sick.

Dream 3.) my school goes on a field to New York City. For some reason some of the students are 20 years old even though I'm in high school. Everyone gets out to walk around and find their hotel room. I don't remember what happens next, but I find myself in a large green field with a small cabin. This is when it turns into a nightmare. As I'm out in the field some one I don't know just starts chasing me for no reason. We run around for a while untill he colapses to the ground. I walk Back to the house very scared. When I look out the window I notice the guy slowly limping towards the house. I decide to watch tv because I think that he won't make it to my house. By night time I look out the window and see it isn't trhere. Then he appears at my door and I close it. he pushes through the door and I push him down the steps. Then I woke up.

Morning of November 19, 2014. Wednesday.



There is not much clarity in this dream. It involves constructing some sort of xylophone-like musical instrument out of mostly cardboard of at least two different thicknesses. First, it seems vaguely like putting pages of a book together, perhaps a larger board book (of the kind for very young children). The concept involves strips that are attached over a larger rectangular piece. The end of each strip has a square hole and each strip is a slightly different length to supposedly produce a different pitch when tapped, similar to the science experiment (such as in primary school) with the ruler - where you “pluck” the ruler that is held over the edge of a desk.

It does not seem that successful of an endeavor and there are at least two “resets”. One project ends up with the strips being of random lengths along the side, by which the musical scale would then not be in any coherent order. I do not really see this as a symbolic outcome in any significant way, as the reasoning skills of the mind (in typical dream types) do not work during the dream state for the most part. I have rarely seen musical instruments work correctly or realistically in dreams (or anything else for that matter - it is just the way dreams are). This includes the dreams where I was playing a seemingly broken guitar and the sound of an entire band came out of it in a very enjoyable and “perfect” way.

Even though it is not relevant to a xylophone, this may be little more than a play on “reed instrument” vs. “read instrument (book)”. This is because the cardboard pieces remind me vaguely of accordion reeds that I used to work with many years ago. It may relate to finding “music” in the way words are arranged in sentences or perhaps poetry.

Sometimes a man needs to examine what is needed for changing of world view, and whether a change in weather is needed for example or not.

Okay, I remembered alot more dreams than this, but because I woke up earlier than usual I forgot them quickly.
Anyways:

1. It was nighttime and I was on Rayford road(The main road next to my neighborhood boulevard) and I was in my car driving down it going away from my house. After I drove in that direction for a few seconds I remembered that I needed to go the other way, so immediately I slowed down. Since there was no traffic in the lane I needed to get in, I did an immediate U-turn into that lane, which was going the other way. After I did this U-turn I ended up behind alot of traffic, perfectly placed right in front of me.
As I was waiting behind all the cars in front of me, I noticed a blue Mazda that I see all the time at my school. It belonged to my friend Patrick's friend Paige, and her twin sister. Suddenly they drove into the left lane and started going ahead of all the traffic. I followed their path, and once I got a clear shot I got into the next lane and passed them up and got in front of them. I could really feel the speed that I had as I was doing all of this. I remember thinking as I passed all of the cars on the road, one by one, "Holy crap, the speed limit is 45 and Im going way over that, I gotta slow down if I don't want to get pulled over." and I listened to myself and slowed back down.

Salvaging My Psyche From Destruction (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I feel as if I’m in a helpless situation, and I’m in an environment that has an “The Evil Within”-esue kind of feeling to it. Basically, I’m inside a realm where I see a huge brain right in front of me, and I presume it’s my mind’s rendering of my brain.

There’s some idiosyncrasies of this portray of my brain, and I can feel the pulsations surging through my body, and the environment, and this causes a vibration that spreads everywhere. A voice tells me something along the lines of how things are going to end very soon, and not in a positive outcome either.

I see words like “Death,” and other wordings that are blurred out, because I instinctively take the stand to ignore them, and do something about this. My body starts glowing, and I can see the inside of it; mostly just what could be a representation of the circulatory system, and nervous system. I can see that parts of the brain are quickly separating from the core, and the sense of urgency to pull them all back together augments.

I cannot comprehend what I will exactly do, and I end up making overly exaggerated motions that seem to be done for the sake of mentally pulling the parts of the brain escaping from my perception of this virtual experiential reality.

And this is all done while this part of a song, “Ordinary World” by RED, is playing (2:48):





It could be the part later on in the song that repeats the same thing, beats me.

But wow, parsing symbolic meaning from that would be more along the lines of existentialism, I guess.


But I’m not really feeling mental stress in my life. So maybe there’s something else I can’t cognitively grasp, unfortunately.

Sidling My Way Through a Demon Girl (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I’m trying to hide away from a girl that looks a lot like the one from the F.E.A.R. game series, albeit with more mannequin-esque features to her visage, and overall body composition.

She’s wearing what could just be a long red dress, or maybe a red shirt with blue jeans, but whatever the case may be, she’s scary as hell. Her eyes are nonexistent, and there’s nothing but a black void for the holes of where her eyes should be. She has some kind of weird formation on her mouth, almost as if it was forced, carved, or sculpted on her, and it’s the only expression she can portray other than her eyebrow and other facial movements.

I’m sidling against a wall, and I’m looking at myself in a third person point of view. A few inches from me is a red door that has a composition of an old-school telephone booth; the kind you would see from the show Dr. Who (TARDIS), but it’s just the style of it that’s imposed onto the door. She’s right behind this door, and I have a feeling she knows I’m very close to her.

Her eyes are gradually glowing white, and I hear her slightly demonic voice intertwined with an innocent and girl voice informing me that she found me. I forget what I do next, but I do know that I’m literally bracing on the door she’s behind.

Trapping Team Zaheer (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The dream seems to fluctuate through many environments, mostly because I realize that I can teleport like how Goku does when putting two fingers to his forehead. Subconsciously, there are numbers that I think of that will allow me to transfer instantly from one place to another.

“9” and “1” were the two that I was teleporting to frequently, but there were moments were willing myself to go to those locations would not work at all. There were two dream characters I had to be cautious around, Zaheer, and Ming-Hua. Apparently, I had to trap Zaheer in what could look like a Pandora’s box, maybe some kind of Covenant of the Ark-esque object that had a dark jade color to it. And I also had to lock Ming-Hua, who apparently isn’t armless in this dream at all.

I recall her trying to force me into the same room I want to lock her in, and while she’s holding my hand so vigorously, I can look at her visage, and see that she’s very ambitious in taking me with her. Fortunately, I managed to gather enough strength to escape her grip, and I immediately shut the door, and braced against it with my back. Ignoring dream logic of how a dream character couldn’t open a door that could easily be destroyed if she just water-bended, I run away somewhere.

+ CEO (N.) JH calls me and one other guy into a meeting. I move to shake his hand and introduce myself but he leaves me hanging and does not take my hand, he already knows my name and says it, introducing me to the group. He says I'm here to solve the problem that nobody else has been able to solve, it's either a problem with the hardware or the driver. I don't feel confident, these guys here surely know the driver much better than I do. The problem must be fixed in just a few days, there's a (trade show?) coming up soon.

In a cubicle area there are several desk/workplaces there one guy is working there, I'm trying to find a place to put my big fluffy coat, I don't see any coat racks, will I have to put it on my computer? Each workplace has one of every kind of computer, in particular a windows PC and a mac. It's better to use the mac because it has better diagnostic tools so finding the problem will be better, I see the computers on the desk and select the mac.

There is an important public presentation/talk soon, I'm expected to go, the admin (a young man) says that formal wear is required. I ask about time/directions to the place.

In the cafeteria, it's quite "fru-fru" with a private organic garden growing vegetables on an island table in the room, and a private gardener/chef overseeing it. The veggies are all really small, I put a teeny tiny radish in my mouth and chew. I see lots of bunches of little carrots. I ask them if they have any hot peppers, I don't see any.

In some other place I'm thinking that solving this problem is really important for the company, the CEO may personally give me $1 million if I solve it. He may even give me $10 million, and I'd be set for life.

(A number of other scenes with me being concerned that I have no clue how to solve this problem, and thinking about the reward)

+ I'm walking across a street I see/sense a bully up ahead is pursuing a scared boy to torment him. As a man it is my duty to stop this, I run after him and pursue him through a building and outside. I eventually catch up to him and grab him quickly putting him into a choke hold with my right arm. I gradually increase the constriction, pulling on my right elbow with my free left hand. He's not struggling much. At one point I feel him swallow. I am cheek to cheek with him for a while. At some point I let him go and realize we're both in our underwear, we find our clothes nearby, I see my white t-shirt wadded on the ground and pick it up.

+ I'm standing outside and my wife approaches and says to put the water into the car. I'm confused about what water she's talking about, I look down and see a 4-5 liter bottle of water, it looks kind of dirty, I ask her if this is the water she says yes.

I see a dealer up close dealing a hand of blackjack, the player takes a hit and stands, the dealer has 14 and the player says something like "18 beats 14". I'm sitting at the table at extreme 1st base, almost around the corner with the dealer. My wife is in the middle of the table. We're playing a hand and some cards are on the table. The dealer recommends playing some special option cards that will greatly increase my winnings, by around $180. I've won a lot of money on this hand, I think you can win a lot of money this way. I say though "sometimes you can burn through your entire bankroll in just 10 minutes."

+ (f) in a large (cafeteria?) room with young people, a girl?

Coz I wasnae feeling very well, I forgot I was supposed to attend an SNP meeting on Tuesday evening - luckily my mind provided a dream of the event... (Non lucid)

Walking back from the leisure centre I my home town. There was a lad next to me dressed in black. He asked if I was going to the SNP meet now. I said I couldn't really be bothered, but I may as well go and send my apologies. I noticed a clock on a wall. Then I was there, we started off in a big room where we were separated into two groups, I just missed out on being in the first group and everyone felt very smug for being first. As we were about to head through into another room, a lassie I fell out with IRL gave me a look of death. I said 'That's it, I'm going home' and I headed toward a billowing curtain to my left. One of the organisers called out 'Don't go, we don't need this kind of publicity' I said loudly and angrily that I never wanted to be in the first group. (even though I hadn't been) The organisers (all young lassies) denied that I had been , nad eventually we walked up the stairs to a bar. Two of my friends were there. One was dressed in a kilt and was very drunk. He asked if I wanted to go out for a fag, I said I would but he'd need to loan me one. We walked through a tunnel made of plastic, I was blethering a bit and pretending to be drunk. We reached the outside and it was the banks of the local loch. I lost one of my friends, and headed to some marshy ground. I noticed I had boots on and they were caked in mud. There was a woman with a couple of dogs. Then I saw a wee lad with a metal detector and across a channel another of my friends had one too. He found something, a long thin thing. Him and the wee lad wanted to investigate their discoveries and I found myself sitting in a sort of milkshake bar kind of place. I was sitting on a bench with two or three completely different friends again. We noticed the two items had writing written on silver bases. The first one had my friends name on it, and it turned out it was a few notes from a game he played in the past. To my left were the wee people. I turned to them and said 'Why don't you go and play with your Tamagotchi's?' They said they were finished. I said 'What - theyre extinct?'

2 - In my shop as usual. One of my staff had just come in, and there was also a rather fierce looking woman with short white hair. Turned out she had worked in place of my staff on my day off and I was ready to sack her for that.

Hell, that was a crazy ass dream i had..
i remember only few scenes.. first i was a bad man or something in a killing field and killing people or something with karate techniques,
then some monsters came with arrows and shit so we busted em, and later on i got rocket man that think u can fly by pressing a button so i flied baaaaaaack to that big tower nearly like in GTA, and i got stuck in a building of army, killed few nubs there and almost died my self lol but i had hooked my self back to 3rd floor and when i got up, the master was there and killed almost every soldier, so he yellled to make party lol and there was on another room a swimming pool with Mud, which moves u back to jump again etc, i didn't jump but i saw 2pac once and we were ready to jump.. after few seconds what i hear? his song playing "Straight Ballin" and i yelled "motherf****** str8 ballin"
and he started rapping lol, so i woke up after so much excitement or something.. had to go to bathroom too .

peace

Dream - Vampirism
I seem to be some kind of vampire that can disguise myself by changing the colour of my skin. The world is similar to the series RWBY, and I'm infiltrating a Faunus hideout to drink their blood. I do this by changing my skin colour to green so they think I'm a Faunus too.

Note:
Kept falling asleep during SSILD cycles, eating a snack wakes me up more so I'll have to try find a decent midnight snack.

I was at a Tiki bar underneath this gorgeous waterfall, I assume I was baby sitting because there was a girl around the age of 12 with me, her name was Tiffany. I got in my car and Tiffany and I drove to an Asian clothing store right across the street from the the Tiki bar and waterfall. When we entered the store it was filled with the most beautiful clothes (Japanese type of clothing, very cute) , I wanted them all so bad, telling myself I would eventually get them so I put back the clothes. Tiffany and I entered a grocery store which had been connected to the Asian store from the inside and then we ran into her parents, so we went around the store and eventually Tiffany and I left the grocery store and went back to my car. We ended up back at the tiki bar, and when I sat down at the bar I noticed Tiffany was no longer there, I didn't think much of it. The bartender guy (who happened to be this one tough guy that I go to school with) asked me why I was alone and I said, "I'm just waiting for my boyfriend" and he said, "Don't you have a nickname for him?", and I said, "Yes, I call him Jare bear, because his name is Jared." he then said, " Oh well my girlfriend calls me master." I then woke up from my dream, I found it funny because, this guy is an aggressive person so the "nickname" didn't surprise me.

non-dream dream lucid

I slept a LOT today. I could literally explain my entire day in detail here.

I entered the day in what seemed to be a black void. Well not really. I'd fallen asleep at my computer and when I woke up everything was black. When I uncovered myself everything was still black. Silent as well. The power was out and all the lights were off.

I went to the living room up stairs and started listening to my radio. An hour later I did the unthinkable and went back down into the black void known as the basement cause my antenna is down there! I spent half an hour down there before coming back up and laying down, still listening to the radio.

Ended up experimenting, practicing SSILD cycles with the radio on Didn't work out so well. Actually managed to get numb in some spots but it just didn't happen other wise.

Ended up listening to the radio all the way until 7 or so, when the power came back on.

Turned on my laptop and came here to just see what was up. Then came to the question of whether to WBTB or not. I ultimately decided to, so I started my clock and went to bed.

Ended up waking up an hour before the alarm, so I thought "good enough" and went back to sleep, practicing SSILD cycles as I drifted off.

And here's where the fun begins.

-------------------------------
The PILD
Lucid: yes
TGMG: potentially, but ultimately no.

I am in my living room, playing an NES game. It looks like Mario but the levels are nothing like I've ever seen before. I have a few false awakenings before I realize something is up. So of course I get up and my room is more or less the same as IWL. I then walk out the door and into the back yard. And this is where things get different.

I look at the area where the shed was and it's a rather large ruin of a shed that was painted white. I look around and there's a bunch of wood everywhere. I look down and there's a piece of wood in the ground that sounds like there could be something under it. I start to pull it up and I see a bunch of duffel bags in the hole. I climb in and I pull the duffel bags out of the hole, but the wood falls on the hole and there's a bunch of spiders on the wood.

I just look out of the hole, occasionally grabbing the dirt in the opening before I stop caring and just push the wood away. I carry the duffel bags inside and I open them up to find a bunch of old clothes. They're all completely dry and they even smell decent. Among the clothes I also find a bunch of old school stuff - binders and whatnot. I open those up to find orange text from when I was a log younger.

I put it away and I then find a bunch of gameboy games and SD cards. I look at the gameboy games. Lots of black cartridges that I have no clue what games are on them.

The SD cards are also black. I grab them all and start stacking them. "Damn that's a lot of SD cards! Look how tall this stack is!" I don't remember how tall the stack was.

I have another false awakening.

I'm back playing the Mario game again! I'm in a very dark level. Well the background is completely black. There's brown Mario styled bricks on the ground and ceiling. I'm also listening to the sound. Sounds like a Mario game except its in stereo oddly enough.

I continue running down this corridor until eventually the game starts acting weird. The audio goes mono and becomes a bit watery sounding. The graphics also change as the bricks become round stones and Mario becomes Fire peach.

Ah ha! This must be a dream! I immediately become lucid, and realize that I'm playing this on my laptop. I get off and get up. I take care not to destabilize the dream. I look around, looking at how real everything looks.

The house is more or less the same as in real life except some of the lighting is different. This is more apparent in the kitchen.

Timmy comes towards me as I'm looking around and asks me whats up. I tell him "I'm dreaming!" and open the front door. I then open the real front door with telekinesis apparently (It was just open).

Timmy asks me what I'm gonna do, and I tell him I'm going out side. I look out the door, stabilizing the dream. I then walk outside. I start to think "Well I'm dreaming! So what goals do you want to try and do?". I try and remember my lucid list but the only goal I can remember is the one where I shrink myself.

By this time I'm on the outside porch, (more or less identical to IWL) and I look around. Everything is quite icy, but I don't feel cold. I raise my hands in the air and look up. I then shrink to about a quarter my size.
Well that's one goal done. No bonus points cause all you did was run to the corner store

I run off the porch and into the road. The road is quite icy. My brother starts following me as I get to the corner. I look down ecorse rd and I see it's a lot darker than IWL. More houses, and it seems to end in a straight turn to the right. The store down the svc drive looks more or less the same as it does IWL. I continue to walk down, looking down every street that I can.

I eventually get to where the chicken place is, and I walk inside. This place is pretty much the same as IWL as well. I look around and there's a bunch of food on the back counter. I want to eat some but I think "What if I'm not dreaming?" so I run out.

All of a sudden I walk up in my bed. I had a false awakening. I get up and everything is blueish. It almost feels as if someone else is in the room but I don't know it. I get up and float across the living room. I say "Jesus christ!", and then I plug my nose. Only to find out I can still breath when it's plugged. "okay this is a dream you don't need to be saying that".

This next part is a bit of a blur. I definitely lost lucidity.

I walk into this room that looks like something out of Half Life 2 and metal gear solid put together. There's a DC in there explaining the SD cards to me. He says that someone made the SD cards work like that intentionally to put you to sleep. They don't explain why though. I do learn how it works however. Each SD card has a few DOS games on it as well as a batch file to load them. If you load the games without any batch file, it puts you to sleep, but you don't realize you've gone to sleep. Some of the SD cards, particularly the one I was playing, with Mario, had the batch file tampered with so it acts as if it's not a batch file.

I have this huge blue monitor to the left of me, and a tunnel that you could crawl through? in front.

I am then playing this Sonic game where I'm being bounced all over the place with flippers in what seems to be a futuristic setting. Then I'm in a spindash tunnel. I get stuck in it, but I want to go another way so somehow I make my way back up, and I get myself into a launcher and try to get up the top tunnel. It takes a few tries. I don't remember what's on top.

I wake up some time around here.
I recall it's now around 11 or so.

After this I'm incredibly tired, so I end up writing down a lot of things about the dream (go tired me ). I really hesitate though because of just how tired I am. I make lots of mistakes as well.

Well eventually I end up going to sleep again where I had another dream.

-----------------------
The windy forest
Lucid: no
TGMG: no

It's during the day time and I'm on a long road in the middle of the forest. No clue where this is but I do know it is quite windy, but not cold.

There's no cars on the road and I never see any. I look up and the sky is overcast but it is quite bright out. Eventually the wind is so strong that I get picked up off my feet, and into the woods. I see a bunch of trees where I'm going, with water on the bottom. Obviously a swamp.

I get close enough to a rather large tree and I grab on. It's too large for me to wrap my arms around but I am capable of holding on. As I'm holding on I get my first glimpse of the area. It's a swamp, with lots of large trees like the one I'm on.

I start climbing up the tree until I get to a large branch. I climb on and sit down. Now I look around fully and I see a swing-like thing made out of tree trunks. There's also a bear laying down on it!

I watch it for a moment. The bear is swinging back and forth on the branch.

I look up the tree and I see a yellow rope laying down. I look up to where it's coming from and I see an incomplete bridge. It's made of wood and there's a odd black thing coming off the incomplete end. I grab the rope and start climbing up it.

As I'm climbing I realize that I don't need much grip to stay on. I could get away with just holding it in my fingers and it would be fine.

I eventually climb to a branch really close to the bridge. I grab hold of the bridge and I see it swaying back and forth. I then see a DC on the bridge. A female park ranger? They take the rope and throw it to me from the bridge. I climb on and I then see a toolbox the DC has. They're here to fix a bit of the bridge.

They ask for help, and I start helping them. So they go into their toolbox and start grabbing small screws. Really really small. They then start screwing them into random bits of wood.

They ask me to do the same so I get a screw and put it into the side of one board on the wall. I can't get it in though! So I try and get it in again. This time it works.

By now its night time, so the DC thanks me and leaves. I'm alone now so I just get up and walk the path beyond the bridge. I then wake up.


Once I wake up I'm still really tired.
Over the course of writing this DJ, I fully awoke and now I feel fine.

Spoiler for Temp stuff:

long dream:
I go to sleep around 8 or so? Wake up around 12 or so.

false awakenings, metal gear solid

the first RC was to check the audio of the NES game. Normally it would sound fine enough, but once dreaming the audio would get really watery and lose its connection with the game. Also the graphics would get really wierd. The bricks would turn into little 8 bit stones and Mario would go all inverted.

lucid route: find yourself playing a nes game agian > play it for a while before noticing that everything's starting going wierd > notice that it's a dream > pull back and notice it's on your laptop in your living room > find timmy > tell him that I'm dreaming > look around at how real everything looks > open up the front door > look out the door to stabilize scenery > walk out door while thinking about lucid list > shout "increase clarity" on the front porch > think of a goal "change sizes" > raise my arms and I shrink to a quarter my height > timmy walks out > I run down the path and into the road > road is all iced up > look down ecorse rd > look down the service drive > walk to the corner stores > go into the chicken place > there's loads of food in there > I don't eat it, thinking "welll what if I'm not sleeping?" > false awakening > wake up in the living room > it's dark but there's almost a surreal lighting > I get scared for a second > say "jesus christ" > I nose pinch > become lucid again > walk towards the front door > ???



------------------------------------------------


I am playing a NES game, seems to be a Mario game. Black background, brown bricks on the top and bottom. I'm just running forward. The sound is there but it's very watery. I play for a bit, before having a false awakening. I am back at the beginning of the game! This repeats a few times before you realize what's going on.

I sit there thinking "Why do I keep resetting back to the beginning?", before realizing that it could be a dream. Okay, I think "Next time I reset back to the beginning, I'll reality check!". I continue playing the game for a bit, carefully paying attention to how the game is behaving. At one point, the game audio starts getting less clear, almost watery. I also seem to recall that its in stereo normally and it became mono. Also the 8 bit graphics changed. Mario turned into "Fire peach" for no reason and the bricks changed into stones.

Ah ha! This must be a dream! I immediately become lucid, and realize that I'm playing this on my laptop. I get off and get up. I take care not to destabilize the dream. I look around, looking at how real everything looks.

The house is more or less the same as in real life except some of the lighting is different. This is more apparent in the kitchen.

Timmy comes towards me as I'm looking around and asks me whats up. I tell him "I'm dreaming!" and open the front door. I then open the real front door with telekinesis apparently (It was just open).

Timmy asks me what I'm gonna do, and I tell him I'm going out side. I look out the door, stabilizing the dream. I then walk outside. I start to think "Well I'm dreaming! So what goals do you want to try and do?". I try and remember my lucid list but the only goal I could remember was the one where I shrink myself.

By this time I'm on the outside porch, (more or less identical to IWL) and I look around. Everything is quite icy, but I don't feel cold. I raise my hands in the air and look up. I then shrink to about a quarter my size.

I run off the porch and into the road. The road is quite icy. My brother starts following me as I get to the corner. I look down ecorse rd and I see it's a lot darker than IWL. More houses, and it seems to end in a straight turn to the right. The store down the svc drive looks more or less the same as it does IWL. I continue to walk down, looking down every street that I can.

I eventually get to where the chicken place is, and I walk inside. This place is pretty much the same as IWL as well. I look around and there's a bunch of food on the back counter. I want to eat some but I think "What if I'm not dreaming?" :derp: so I run out.

All of a sudden I walke up in my bed. I had a false awakening. I get up and everything is blueish. It almost feels as if someone else is in the room but I don't know it. I get up and float across the living room. I say "Jesus christ!", and then I plug my nose. Only to find out I can still breath when it's plugged. "okay this is a dream you don't need to be saying that".

This next part is a bit of a blur. I deffinitely lost lucidity.

I walk into this room that looks like something out of Half Life 2 and metal gear solid put together. There's a DC in there explaining the SD cards to me. He says that someone made the SD cards work like that intentionally to put you to sleep. They don't explain why though. I have this huge blue monitor to the left of me, and a tunnel that you could crawl through? in front.

I am then playing this Sonic game where I'm being bounced all over the place with flippers. Then I'm in a spindash tunnel. I get stuck in it, but I want to go another way so somehow I make my way back up, and I get myself into a launcher and try to get up the top tunnel. It takes a few tries. I don't remember what's on top.

I wake up some time around here.

forest dream:
I'm running down a long curving road during the day, and there's serious wind. Forests surround me, and the wind is strong enough to pick me up and blow me towards a swamp. As I'm getting carried I try and grab hold of several branches, and I eventually succeed. There's lots of rather large trees here.

There's a large swing-like contraption here, made of several large tree trunks, with what seems to be a bear on it. It's just going back and forth. I grip the trees here, and I eventually climb up one of them until I get to a large branch sticking out to the left. Once I get on the branch I start looking around more.

There's water below me and there's what seems to be a rope here. I grab it and I look up to where it came from. There's a bridge here. Well it doesn't seem to be finished but it is here. Rather new as well. I climb up to it with the rope and the bridge is swaying quite a bit.

Once I'm on the bridge I start looking around and a DC comes up and greets me. They ask me what I'm doing here, and I don't really tell them much. Then they bring out a tool box and start getting out small screws to put in the bridge. They ask for my help. So I get a screw and try and screw it into one of the boards on the fences.

It doesn't go in, so I try and put it down. They grab the screw from me and put it where the other screws are. They give me another screw to put in, and I finally screw it in. I do this a few times until the DC thanks me and leaves. I then walk along the path that the bridge leads to, and then I wake up.

Still recovering from my bug so I had a very early night..

3 Dreams , all non lucid, but the first two were extremely vivid and packed with detail....

1) In a van. My Granddad was driving. I was observing the landscape. There was a big hill covered in uniform looking grey rocks. There was a wall around the hill. As we got closer it was obvious that the hill had recently been cleared of trees. We then started driving through a huge forest (at least by Scottish standards!) It was mainly Scots Pine. I remarked 'This is a very pretty road.' My Granddad took a while to reply and I wondered if he had heard, but then he said, slightly grumpy 'There are a lot of nice walks around here.' We then drove into a large square area of waste ground. There was a structure to the right with an electronic device attached to the wall. The place looked very familiar (I'm not sure if its from real life or another dream) . I found myself standing beside the building with a friend and his daughter. There were two r three scruffy children running about, they annoyed me somehow. My friend exited right and I looked at a structure to my left. There was a big screw in a pole which I pulled out and went back to my friend to show him.

2) A couple I barely know IRL came into the shop and ended up leaving with four big bags of kilt related goodies. He left and his wife tried to pay. The total was £835, but I said Id do it for £800. It took about six tries using the credit card machine, I either kept entering the wrong total or pressing the wrong buttons. I got it right eventually and she decided to go for a drive with me. We ended up under a bridge next to a wee pond. There was a crystal clear burn beside us and I remember looking into it trying to spot fish, but there wasn't any. To my right was a black rubbish bag, it was slightly open and was full of clothes. I looked at the top item, it was a white t-shirt with 'World best Mum' written on it and a rainbow printed above it - what a bizarre detail! We then started walking on weeds in the middle of the pond, we never got wet or sanl which should have been a giveaway !! Two people appeared to our left, they were looking for frogs.

3) I pulled up in my car to find that my neighbour had built a small wall in front of an existing wall. It was about two foot high and had a purple feature inserted into it. I then saw one of my neighbours at her front door. She had changed her hairstyle into a tight perm and had tinted it yello for some reason...
