Surprisingly, dream recall came back almost immediately...although it's often fragmentary. But that's very encouraging. It's all in there (the mantras, the dream signs, all the little tricks) so maybe it's not so surprising

As I said before, I'm not rushing it. I have no intention of forcing it every night and (as I've also said before) just the very act of experimenting, trying new approaches,trying to decipher dreams (if there are any codes in them) the scientist in me finds rewarding in itself.

Tues 5/8/14 I set the alarm for 6.00 pm but awoke at 5.30...and remembered the dream I'd just had. New ships are launched by champagne...I got mega incontinence??? So much so that I checked the bed just in case. It's easy to read anything into anything but (just maybe) was Ed my brain warning me of the consequences of wearing him out? Who knows? Who cares? Anyway, I'll tread carefully just in case..and maybe I'll stop verbally abusing him so much.

I did an hour WBTB and tried to WILD. God knows why I try that...it's never worked yet but I got "something" happening...not much but every little bit helps. I gave up and went to sleep.

8.15 Walking around a (Spanish) town? My impression has always been that parts of dreams are inferred rather than visually presented. It then cut to me searching a cupboard for some mushrooms I'd apparently picked. (DS = looking for something) I eventually found some but they were old...and there were little insects in them???

Wed 6/8/14
3.15 Looks like the alarm is redundant already. It seemed to be about parents whose children were very moderately famous and I as the father was laughing as they bemoaned their fate (all the time we were overlooked by neighbours) i maybe recognise the fact that I worry a bit about my grandchildren's future and I'm not too happy about our neighbours. Are my dreams just nocturnal psycho-analysis? is Ed my friendly neighbourhood shrink?

5.15 Two episodes back-to-back (Luxury) A former workmate (DS) had trouble dealing with my humour (I have trouble dealing with my humour) and I was reassuring him.
This was weird. I seemed to be making items to go with cocktails. It involved teatowels to which I seemed to be fixing things (don't ask what that meant, I haven't a clue...are teatowels a new DS?)

7.30 Large office (DS) A colleague very keen that I see a supervisor re a cleaner that he fancies. Cut to me trying to find my way back upstairs to find the office again. (Lost = mega dream sign and the one must likely to make me lucid again) I don't seem to be wearing a shirt (We had a long spell of hot weather so that's probably why it's in my dream (boring)

Sat 9/8/14 (the days are measured by when I go to bed So I'm now writing this on Sunday)
4.30 French troops (military = DS) talking about historical events.

5.30 Had breakfast (inferred that I was in France...it seems to be my Gallic night) Wife presents food (including some sort of rice cakes) I said that it was all too filling.

As you can see my dreams are filled with excitement, sex, death and destruction...or am I just dreaming that?
I intended to do 1 hours WBTB and it's now 2 hours+ but off I go...you never know what you're gonna get (as TH often said)

1:12 p.m.

I was in a small community. It's unfamiliar.

I decided to hide in a store, a place that I somehow thought they'd never look. People looking for me. I'm not from there. I don't know what they want to do. I think I was female, and the owner of the store (also female) said that one day, someone needs to take care of the store and marry her son (who is still a boy).

A storm or a fight. I/We have to hide.

I was in a building. Yellowish color theme. The floors are fooling around. The elevators disappeared. Good thing I ended up in floor 27, so I just took the stairs to go down. I/We ended up in the basement. White theme. Some things to explore. I felt excited, although I think the place is prohibited.

Nightmare # 3 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
Background: I saw a picture of a baby duck and it was pink and stuff.

Nightmare #3 day: 08/09/14, time: 2:00- Am":
I am around dining area. I see guests, a girl I know from church, FN, and her mom. The father wasn't there. I looked on the floor and their is sharp objects, like needles and knives. I am trying to remove it. They said they want to stay the night. They went to our garage. A man shows up and the house got dark. We huddled up and he tells us that their is something else in the house. We start hearing something crawl on the ceiling, all across the floor. The man tells us that we need to hid any reflective objects. He wraps the knives with aluminum foil. He was about to throw it in the garage but I told him their is a family their. I go to my grandma's room and I see a creature on the floor. It had pink reddish skin that blended with its eyes. It had no hair. Its guts were hanging out. It looked like an unborn baby. It was disgusting, so I left the room. I then see the girl FN's father show up. I didn't know how he looked like so I made some stuff up. He came in a van. He raced off, the van opened up and it let out several babies with umbilical cords linked up to the van. They were being dragged on the pavement.

I wasn't really scared but disgusted.

Dream 1
6:54am

I'm at some kind of venue which has a dark feel to it. A night club feel. I'm with Daryl.

I see a TV in front of me and someone is about to get interviewed. I hear my name and think it's me that is going to be getting interviewed. I freak out cause I don't know what to say in the interview. I soon realise they're talking about a the Dean off X Factor. I see his face come up on the TV and they mention about him practicing the art of BJJ. I start to day dream about what I would do in the interview if I was him, which was to start pretending to choke people out with my BJJ skills. The interviewers also mention about another BJJ practitioner who is high level.

I see people using the punching machines which give you a score once you hit it. I look towards Daryl and happily tell him about it as I know he has a strong punch and hoping he would show them how it's really done.

Daryl is sitting on something and Ali comes up and jumps on him. Daryl isn't too happy about it and calls Ali fat. Daryl is playing a game with a man who is using a medicine ball, where he's throwing it over the back of his head.

I see a man using another punching machine where you had to throw the punching gloves at the punching gloves that were connected to the machine, which was weird.

Dave Clork is here but I don't see him, I think his on the dance floor and must have hurt himself a little. I see a sign on the wall which says something about going hard and won't be in for work tomorrow.

Dream 2
8:05am

My brother and I are at the kitchen table and we're trying to set up a plasma TV. It's suppose to slot into the holder, but it keeps swaying either forwards or backward as we adjust it. We try to improvise and use props to hold it. I see a TV antenna and something else to use and try that out. It works but only for a small amount of time. I see Bruce and he comes over to us and he tries to help us out with the TV. Bruce starts talking about Kindles and I mention about a the format I use and can't seem to think of if for a bit. Eventually I remember and tell him it's Java format. He tells me he uses just the normal PDF. I tell him I don't use that format due to having to zoom and etc which is annoying. He tells me he knows a trick where you press a button which is called something along the lines of "over the mountain". I run to my room and grab my kindle so he could show me. I walk back out and meet him at the cream coloured couch. He opens it up and starts watching old auditions of Australian Idol or X Factor.

The scene changes and I'm on the battlefield. I have an assault rifle and start carving up the enemies that approach. I seem to be on my game today.

Dream 3
8:40am

I think I get out of bed which may have been a false awakening that I missed out on. I'm at my old house in the kitchen making my breakfast. I see a couple whole oat clusters which looked like weetbix, which was left on the bench. I thought they may have been Dads or he just tried them and left the rest for me. I decide to eat them and not worry. I hear Dad talking to the TV, while watching a game show. He's yelling out the answer to the questions. I hear him say trumpet, which is correct answer.

Dream Fragments:

1. I'm sitting in a lounge room with a family member and Bruce and Rita. We're talking about something.

2. I'm on the computer and log into Dream Views IRC. Someone says hi to me but calls me hillen

Journal Entry Lucid #70 Dream,Lucid, thoughts in dream,(Comments)
Background: no meditation for this one. Before going to sleep after WBTB I watched avengers and I did RC since most of my dreams are me spectating. While going to sleep I listened to Robert Monroe Lucid dreaming audio. I was also pretty determined for LD.

Lucid Dream # 70, day: 08/03/14, time: 4:24-5:30 Am " Water Zero Gravity":
I see scarlett Johansson getting beat up by rogue agents. I intervene. I soon realized it is a dream Every agent pointed their gun at me. I chuckled and told them to stop joking. I then used telekinesis on every one in that room. Their leader asked for mercy, and he doesn't want to die like this. I let them down and I left. I see my sister in the kitchen. I tell her it is a dream. I started to fly/float to prove it to her. She got spooked by it. I tell her it is ok and anybody could do it. She burst into tears of joy and she said, "All of us could do what you did?". I land and I wanted to create something I have never done before. I started rotating my right finger in a circle expecting for water to form from thin air. And surely it did. Not only that it kept going like perpetual motor. I then create another and throw them at each other. They started to interact with each other. It was beautiful. It had diffraction like water and it reflects maybe not as accurately but it reflects. I am getting overexcited. I then wanted to taste if it is close to water. I then float like an astronaut and put it into my mouth. I am overjoyed and excited that such a world exist inside all of us. . I woke up due to excitement.

8/9/14

Last night bed at midnight - 8am.

WILDing 10am - 1pm.


I waited for cats to fall asleep then laid down on my sofa. 5 min into it they started growling at each other, but I was already super relaxed and didn't want to break it, so I let them growl it out. They stopped soon after that.

I got into a WILD via a huge head sensation. Like falling backwards while a waterfall flowing through my head.

I did one ToTM, which now I can't remember. But I remember recapping it in my LD, before remembering the "Pull your eye out" ToTM.

Just before bed, I practiced getting naked, pulling out my green banana (don't want a ripe mushy banana as a weapon) and robbing a bank while yelling "this is a stickup! Gimme all your lucid dreaming vouchers".

Then I practiced getting naked and pulling my eye out. I said this is gonna be gross, and I proly don't wanna do this one.

So after recapping my ToTM, I remembered the "pull your eye out." I put fingers of my right hand around my eye and pushed in slightly while thinking "this is not gonna work". Grabbed the eyeball and pulled it out. My hand is kinda closed and I'm thinking again that it didn't work. But I see a shiny white ball with black dot in size of a pupil between my fingers. I'm totally surprised. (I have also practiced putting the eye behind me and looking at my butt) but I kinda lose it here and don't remember what happened next.

Then I stupidly slept for 2 more hours.

Dream started with me waking up in Father room, my Father had just enter in the room while sweeping. I got up and first thing I did was a reality check by looking at my hands as I did I tried to see if any of the fingers would change or not. It became hard to focus so I grab my hand so it wouldn't wander off my mind , that's when I began counting how many fingers I had. It would mostly come up as 5 but after a few more checks I could see another finger and it was much smaller from the rest. I got up and walk in to the bathroom to look at my face. I could hardly stare at myself as it kept shifting and was way too blurry even for me. I left the bathroom and approach my Father with a question, I ask him if I was dreaming but he didn't respond and only continue to sweep. I think I am dreaming I said and that's when this pressure hit my head which allowed me to become fully lucid and certain that this was a dream. I left Father room and went in to the living room and quickly unlock the back door to begin walking outside.

It seem like it was fall now due to how all the orange leaves on the ground , I was amaze by how real walking on them felt. The sky was grey as I continue walking forward to the road then turn left to continue walking till another I made another right turn to continue where I was going. That's when I notice a person walking behind me but decided to not pay much attention to them. That's when I cross the road and walk on the sidewalk whiling passing 1 guy who said something that I could no longer remember but I do remember agreeing with what the statement. I continue walking till he came back and said hey I replied with sup and notice the guy who was walking behind me stop on our spot as well. The guy started showing a lot of money, I ask him is he hiring anyone? He look at me and seem like he was thinking about it but that's when the scenery change in to a gloomy cafeteria that had no lights on but the windows reflect what the outside look like that gave us light in the school. The sky was grey but started looking a little darker. The DC's all change in to different people as well , one was a scout I use to know and I realize we were standing next to a table now. We began fighting over who gets to take what type of food, once that was over we all sat down and began eating however I didn't like that I didn't get the chance to pick out what I wanted and was left with a ham sandwich.

I took 1 bite out of it and felt awful , There was a teacher at our table she started talking about hoping the kids were liking their meal. I then realize that I never did like the cafeteria back then, I got up and told her I think it's time I leave before I run out my dream time. While I am walking I hear her say ok as I open the double doors leading to the school hall ways. I decided to have some fun by knocking everyone who was in my way, first came someone who look like mickey mouse but was color greenish blue and wearing a yellow shirt with a tie and had just close his locker. I push him out of my way continue till I saw some guy having trouble opening his locker . I punch him in the head and shove him on to the floor, I could tell from all the DC's reactions when everyone on the hallway turn around staring at me that they were mad. The guy I shoved to the floor quickly got up and ask me what was my problem and did I want a fight? I look back at him and smirk before pushing a small girl aside. I open a door which took me to a place that seem less crowded I also analyze the colors of this school and it was all brown and blue with no lights except counting the mirrors casting out the greyish whether from outside. Seems nice I open another door to where I find there's not a floor anymore. I try to think of a safe way of getting down so I jump on a wood ledge while keeping my balance in till I jump down again.
I was really enjoying how quiet it is here, I open another door and started walking upstairs as I am doing so I notice a orange light with students using the computer. I went up and look at an empty seat that show the computer screen then suddenly I heard a student calling out for the teacher. The teacher got up and was in a black coat with black slacks. He started saying hold on and that's when I woke up. Lucidity Time : 9 mins

So I hit on this website and this tasks and decided to directly giving them a try!

I did the first basic task last night but it wasn´t as exciting as I hoped...

I was suddenly in school again wich confused me because I have holidays for like a week now and a moment later I knew this had to be a dream. Just for fun I looked at my fingers and I saw eight of them. For some reason I had some fun with it and tried to do a 'most fingers at one hand' - world record and failed pretty much. When I had 11 fingers at one hand further tries of manipulation just rebuild my hand in weird way so that it looked nearly scary. But then I remembered my task an went down the stairs where I found a woman. I just asked her for a word in a different language but she seemed to be a bit...dense wich forced me to explain it all again. But then she finally understood and said with a little delay 'nicht'. Then I asked what that means in our language and she answered with the same unsure delay 'not'. 'Yay, that is right!' I answered in an ironic way because this was nothing new for me and the woman was just plain dense... Originally I wanted to get a new magic spell from her but I refused when I saw her first confused reaction.

Well, that is it for this task. Lets go on to the next!

Four wee pieces - very bad recall, they came back to me over a couple hours.
Regards the first , I am a birdwatcher in real life, so often get these kinds of dreams!

1) Funny wee bird in the garden, brown wings and dark purple head - I studied it for a moment and said to myself - 'Yep, that's a Willow Warbler' - (which it clearly was not.)

2) again in the garden, I was standing by a huge pile of cuttings from my hedge, my neighbour spoke to me over the wall 'Steven - my son will swap you those cuttings for the last of the paving slabs from our garden!' - I was touched by the offer,but couldn't think what I could do with loads of slabs at that time.

3) Walking past a field with my wife - she pointed to a figure in the field and said 'Jings, hes standing really still' - it was clearly a scarecrow.

4) In my shop, man had just bought a pair of shoes, I was putting them in a carrier bag and the man said 'At least you bag things in this place.'

Pretty dull.

So i was driving home from a two week vacation and it was a 14 hour ride I only remembered one dream from that ride so here it goes.

I was in prison with two guys from a tv serie called Prison Break it was Micheal scofield and his brother Lincoln I am watching this show as we speak and we saw a dark tunnel in the prison so we ran in and at the end of the tunnel there was a couch and somehow this was very usual in this prison prisoners like to run and jump on the couch but we were there first than we can hear the intercom and we hear 'We almost forget to jump the COUCH!!' and the three of us now that we are in trouble but we see a hallway we can run into but also there are alot of couches when the prisoners run towards the couch we run into the hallway and micheal hides in a corner next to the couches so that he won't be run over and I suggest that as soon as the prisoners run towars the first couch we go back into the hallway and run back in the prison Micheal says '' Do what you gotta do' and i decide to stay and hide between two other couches all the time this happens I fear for being stabbed by a prisoner than the prisoners come running towards us we survive but a bold scarry guy lies on the ground behind me and starts talking to me that I should come and fight him I say 'No thank you' and he does a weird flip and is on his feet again I react and hit him but in this dream I have no power he still goes down but when i try to finish him but kicking his face in he doesn't feel anything there is another bold guy who is also trying to kill me but than lincoln and michael jump on top of them and lincoln has a gun and he tells the guy that he has to leave me alone or he will shoot him he doesn't listen and tries to kill lincoln than lincoln and micheal both put the guys in a armbar and than I woke up. It was a really weird dream.

Ps. I'm new to this site so I hope I understand the concept of this forum if not please tell me I'm also new to lucid dreaming en dream recall.

1.
I was inside of a school. I had just entered a classroom and knew almost no one inside of it. I saw one friend of mine and went to his table to sit down. I told him, "hey", and he replied with, "What's up?". I sat down and saw that there was a mexican guy across from me who didn't look very happy about me sitting at the table. We looked at each other. He said something along the lines of, "I don't like you sitting here" basically. I told him that that was a shame because I wasn't moving.
After that the situation pretty much dissipated and we chilled. Class ended minutes later and I walked out. I went down a hallway and saw my crush, Alexandria, sitting on the floor talking to some other students. Because it seemed like every time I try talking to her I get cock blocked by one of my friends, I decided to avoid doing so. I remember a teacher giving me instructions to give a piece of paper to Alexandria and tell her that a teacher wanted to see her. This was after I walked into another class. I walked back out of that class I was only momentarily in and looked around in the hallway for Alexandria. She wasn't there, she had left.
I decided I wasn't going to walk around the entire school to look for her so I went up to one of her friends that was still standing where she was and gave him the paper and told him what was going on. Just as I did so Alexandria came back and I basically just re-stated everything I had just told her friend. She said ok and did what I told her(sounds pretty rude lol but it really wasn't). I started going down another hallway, not sure about what I was doing. All of a sudden, a group of ROTC dudes came around the corner running.
I was going to beat them, I have no idea why I had this urge. I started running as well and ran with them. They ran around the entire school. As I followed them I would have short, super speed bursts that would put me in front of the group. However, we all stopped because some guy got in our way. This guy was no ordinary guy, but a giant. He was around 6-7 times my size and about 8-9 feet tall, maybe even 10. He reminded me of hellboy because of his face but there wasn't much similarity.
Somehow he got mad at me and I started to run from him. I ran around the school again but eventually left it. I ended up in some parking garage. Here, me and the giant both stopped running. He told me, "Ill make this a fair game, but once you fall off, your dead meat." I noticed that we were standing next to 4 or 5 super bikes. The giant got on one and waited for me. I picked out a green bike. I didn't have the keys so I didn't know how i was going to start it. Just then, I turned around and saw a chinese dude, in his 30's or so. He was afraid, and he gave me his keys. The giant got his keys the same way.
With this I started up my bike and rode off. It was pretty easy to control, and I wasn't expecting that. About a minute into riding my bike, my bike turned into a completely different bike. It was now silver and blue and had what looked like stainless steel handlebars. I drove into a mall. My handlebars had never been completely extended so I extended them once I got in. I heard the giant closing in behind me, so I sped up and continued on. As I did so, I went to fast and crashed into a plant. I fell off of my bike, but quickly got up and got back on.
Once I got on my bike I started riding again, but my bike wasn't going fast at all. It was only going about 3 miles an hour and was smoking really bad. I tried my best to get it going but no luck. At this point the giant was only 50 feet behind me. I got off my bike and started running, but the giant was catching up fast. Soon he caught up to me and grabbed me. This is where the dream ended.

2.
I was in math class in school again, but in a classroom I had never been in before. I was sitting down in the far back side of the room when the teacher moved me for some reason. She moved me to the middle part of the classroom in between a group of girls(niceee). The desks were all arranged into groups were 4 or 5 desks were connected together to form one big giant desk. I sat in one of the middle seats and started working on some kind of quiz/test. I looked up from my work and noticed Lisbeth was sitting right in front of me, facing me(Lisbeth is a girl from my sophomore math class last year). She looked beautiful! She was wearing a yellow shirt and I think some skinny jeans. I remembered that she always dressed really nice, but it her outfits were at the same time extremely attractive.
We started talking and ended up working on the quiz or whatever it was together. We shared our answers and what not. While we did this, I noticed another girl sitting to the left of me that was also in my math class before. She had brownish-reddish hair; its hard to describe. Her name was Cassidy, and she was also very pretty as well. I talked to both girls during the class.
One thing I noticed about the class, was that the lights were dimmed and the room seemed rather yellow. There were a few lamps around as well. I forgot who the teacher was.

3. I was in a big open room that had a stage in it. I was with one other friend, who had brought a friend of his along as well. I didn't know the guy and I didn't care to either. When I met him I could tell immediately that he was a jerk. We all sat down in the rows of chairs that surrounded us. "This place is pretty spacious" I thought. All of a sudden, some man emerged out of the stage and started talking to us about what we were here for. Apparently this room was a class, but Im not sure what for.
Not long into his speech, me and the jerk guy started arguing. He tried making fun of me- pretty pathetic. We got so loud that the teacher told us to stop arguing and made ME leave the room. I did, but as soon as I got far enough so the teacher couldn't see me, I hid behind a wall. Looking at the wall I saw that it had alot of faces on it. I regained focus and listened to what that jerk was saying, he was still talking behind my back, and making fun of me. As he made fun of me and now all of a sudden my friend, our faces appeared on the wall in front of me. We each looked a little different on the wall. The entire wall was covered with other peoples faces, but me and my friend's was bright, and they stood out.
Later I went back into the class and stood up the jerk dude. I asked my friend, "How is this guy your friend, he's a complete douche-bag!". My friend agreed, but not out loud. Apparently the jerk dude thought I was his friend(what a joke). I didn't care about that guy anymore, he was only killing my vibes. I stopped talking to him and I think I also left the class.


4. I was in my room, sitting on my carpet floor. Out of no where, a small bug crawled onto my foot and onto one of my toenails. I thought this was gross, so, after a while of trying to catch him, I finally got him and killed him. The bug looked like a small brownish-greenish bean that was a little transparent. I stood up off of the ground and went to my mirror. I started combing my hair and as I did so, loads of dandruff came falling out(WTF, hella gross! btw no I dont have dandruff in real life, my hair is clean). I kept combing it and it would still keep coming out. It was everywhere.
I dont remember anything else of this dream really.

I was hanging out with my uncle, helping him fix a car. These two people appeared and were supposed to do some kind of maintenance work, I don't remember. I just remember that I looked up and there were tremendous, red clouds that were swirling around each other. After a few seconds they turned dark blue, then red again. I heard a loud rumbling and the earth shook. Water came pouring down from the sky and waves rolled down all the streets and everybody ran into the garage for some reason. Cars were floating around me, I just stood there in disbelief. I was all alone at that point when a neighbor boy ran up to me and yelled something that I could barely hear over the torrent. All I made out was that I could come with him if I wanted to. I asked him what happened. He said that it was a combination of secret, advanced weaponry and inter-country trading. I felt disappointed, then I realized that it was just a dream.

I told the boy to not worry because it wasn't real, then i started walking over to the garage. I noticed a giant chocolate shake in my hand, I took a drink from it. It tasted like...an imagined taste that I made up when I was a little kid, reading some book about a giant. A combination of sweet flavors and magic. I wanted to make sure it was really a dream and I hadn't just snapped under the madness of what was going on, so I tried to make a glove fly into the air, didn't work, tried to make paper fly into the air. The piece of paper jumped off a table in the garage and someone caught it really quickly. I took another drink of the chocolate shake, yum. Then I decided to manipulate some of this water for fun. There was a stream of it that was falling from the roof. I made that stream fly into the air, forming a spiral pattern, then I froze it like that. I then looked at a DC of a neighbor lady that was with us and tried to make her slow down, didn't work until I got really close to her but even then I could only slow her down for a couple seconds. I put my hands on her boobs and she got really angry in slow motion. I really wanted to make time stop completely, so I asked myself, "how do I do that?" a voice responded, "you just do it". I made time freeze and I laid the neighbor lady and her daughter on their backs so I could do naughty things to them >: D. I thought for a second about what would really happen if I were able to make time stop and then move things around. I came to the conclusion that either the kinetic energy would destroy the universe or there would be no net energy from the action at all. The dream started to end, time went back to normal. I said out loud, "noooooooo, not yet". Then tried to think of something else to do to switch up my dream control skills. I made a miniature, young Jerry Lewis as the Nutty Professor appear on the shoulder of someone that was in front of me. He was in the full costume with a white lab coat, glasses, and a messed up face. The miniature Jerry Lewis just cross his eyes and said, "OYyyyYyyyyyeeeee". Dream ended, woke up.

This isn't actually an entry about a dream, but it falls within my definition of dream-like phenomena.

I was just sort of lost in my own mind when I swear I started just kind of creating a complete and kind of dark metal/rock cover of this song on the fly in my head.



It actually had a really awesome guitar solo too. >.>

I hear music in my imagination a lot but it's usually not like this, except for when I'm dreaming. In a dream I can hear the most amazing club music I've ever heard just generated effortlessly, so I know that the mind is capable of this.... I just thought it was worth noting because it happened to me this vividly while awake and it just happened to be kind of random.

That is all.

I am in high school again, and am walking to my bus after school. Already lucid, but not very much -- don't remember how I got there! I am walking with a short, chubby black kid. I have just done something not very nice (don't remember what) and think I need to make it up to this DC. I give the kid a big hug.

"What are you doing?" he asks in disgust.

C/R my response. I think of how I might win this DC over. I reach into my pocket, hoping for some candy. I find instead a toy from childhood:



I give this to the DC and tell him it is a chocolate bar (?) DC takes a bite and complains that it is not a chocolate bar, and that it is indeed a plastic toy. I take the toy back and try to morph it into a chocolate bar. It's outward appearance changes somewhat, but not enough to be food.

The DC then asks, "Is this that kind of candy that once I chew it, it becomes candy in my mouth?"

"Yeah, sure," I say, still searching through my pockets.

He begins eating it again.

"Oh my god," he cries, "It's glorious! It's like I'm flying through space on an imperial starship!"

I look down and see a piece of the action figure/candy on the ground. Yep, I pick it up and eat it. It tastes sweet but nothing spectacular. Definitely not flying through space. I wake up.

False awakening. I hear a loud whistling sound and something explode. I don't even bother to roll over in bed or open my eyes. Some idiot just lighting off a firework in august.
Just as I am drifting back off to sleep, I hear another whistling sound. Then the explosion. It sounds closer this time. My eyes open just in time to catch the flash of light shining in my window. I hear what sounds like a bunch of men laughing. One more I just try to shrug it off and go back to "sleep".
Three times the charm. I hear a third rocket and turn over in bed. I see it go shooting up from somewhere to the south. The rocket burns out and it slows down, then starts to fall. Then the rocket turns back on and kicks it a little more before it explodes into a rather small firework burst.
I look down the street of my sub, and see that it has been my dad along with say, five other men. My vision 'zooms in' and I can see all of them. They are all holding alcoholic beverages with plenty more in a cooler nearby, and they are lighting off the fireworks.

False awakening. It is now morning. My dad is nowhere to be found but my mom tells me she is going to lock up all of our fireworks. She wants me to ride my bike to the hardware store and pick up a lock and some lengths of chain, and she is going to put all of the fireworks into a big metal box.
I ride to the hardware store, and when I get there I realize it looks like any hardware store in my town in WL. I decide to RC. So I pinch my nose. Nothing happens. And, like I always do, I double check. I do the nose pinch a second time. I can't breathe. I ask myself if this situation seems logical, and (well I guess it's not that absurd of a dream plot.) so the entire thing passes my reality checks.
I go into the hardware store, that feels more like a convenience store and start looking for locks and chain. The funny part comes with what this store was selling. The entire front of the store sold fairly normal things. Chips, cookies, pop, junk food. The back of the store was guns. Yeah. All guns. All different makes, models, sizes. A huge wall with containers for different types of ammunition. I look around, and think maybe I could buy a gun. Just one of the really cheap ones. I see a gun on the shelf, it looks like a toy gun, but on the package it reads that it is real. I take it to the register to buy it, and ask the cashier if they have a lock and chain. I then lose the dream.

I am in some world. It looks like a very strange LittleBigPlanet level. I have control over these two characters that are attempting to make their way to the highest point in the world. I start ascending platforms and jumping over obstacles.
