More fragments I really need to get my act together here!

1. I was in a studio space working on an art project when people started coming into the room. I was ticked off cause I thought I had the space to myself. I was trying to get out a rolled up piece of paper from a metal cylindrical container that had lots of meter sticks and rulers sticking out of it. I was flailing my arms, knocking over everything around me but I could not manage to get the paper out, then this guy I remember from highschool comes over and he is pissed because I was making so much noise. He takes the container from me and with ease pulls out the paper and gives it to me. I am so mad because I felt like they shouldn't be angry cause I was in their first and they chose to come in to the room.

2. Peter from family guy was in my house, maybe he was my dad but I don't think he was. Anyways he was angry cause someone ate his chocolate Popsicle and he was blaming it all on meg. I walked into the living room and told him that I ate it and tomorrow I would buy him another one. He went downstairs and I followed him. He was sitting on shelves and eating the Popsicles that he he hidden down there. I was like the son of a gun tricked me! And I confronted him and we had an eating competition. But I was eating something like a fruit roll up and we we're try to take the biggest bites to finish first. Peter won and I don't remember what happened after that.

3. I was apart of a class and we were talking to the professor in a forest. Some kid mentioned that the prof should put his lectures online and that he should also be online to answer question. The prof was like "ya maybe I should just give you all the answers" in a sarcastic tone.

I needed to redo a scientific paper. Mostly I needed to delete redundant parts, such as diagrams that started with a chemical / molecular composition of something, then something else, and ending on the same chemical/molecular composition. Trouble was that this pruning effort was the suggestion of someone we were working with, but while I agreed it was needed, I worried my boss would not like it. This someone else we worked with was saying that the current paper was written "so old school", also suggesting that we should not strive to directly and thoroughly answer the questions asked, but succinctly show our capabilities.

today i dreamt my dad was asking me which birthday gift i wanted.
I really didn't know but i said
"I want to watch a car race, although the tickets are too expensive"
he told me
"don't worry about the price"

I'm in some sort of 2D video game where we have to jump from platform to platform, I got to part of the level where there were spikes that I kept jumping onto them, was a difficult area, The platforms were coloured black and I think turn red when you land on them.

This dream took place in a combination Bed and Breakfast and Church sort of place.

At first I was in my room in a bed and breakfast with my husband and I think I had just showered and was getting dressed. I think I had my underwear on but no other clothes yet.

Then I heard my mother speaking loudly on the phone outside my room, but I also clearly heard the responses. I thought this was weird and looked out into the hallway, and there was the landlady of the bed and breakfast talking to my mom on the phone, while my mom was on the phone with her in the same hallway around the corner one the same floor. One could clearly hear both of them especially since my mom is hard of hearing and thus talks loudly. I thought this was weird. Why were they not talking in person without phones? But I did not figure that out yet. My mom was saying that the water temperature in her shower was not right. The landlady said to let it run for four minutes and it would adjust.

Then I ducked back into my room because I realized I was still in my underwear only. My husband was saying that we needed to spend most of our day at church. I said that he can do so, but I do not want to because my mom is in town. He said, but you have to, since it is our anniversary and we are going to renew our wedding vows.

That's when our room transformed into the church. I was a bit uncomfortable because I was in my underwear still, but I continued on with it. My mom was there now too, fully dressed - everyone but me was fully dressed. The ceremony was weird because there were readings but we were supposed to read them silently ourselves rather than a reader reading them out loud. There was singing. At some point when I was self-conscious about my underwear issue, a woman who was involved in the celebration brought my husband and me a blanket. I was grateful but still uncomfortable that I had insufficient clothes under the blanket.

That's when I looked and saw that now I had a yellow blouse on. How did that happen? Wait a moment could this be a dream? I raised myself up and tried to levitate. The dream started fading, but I definitely realized that I was dreaming before I woke up, so for a second I was lucid!

(2/12/14)

Sitting on my bathroom floor, I stare down the toilet and wonder idly to myself if it has always been this shiny. There is a bound notebook perched on the back part as if I had set it there just before taking my position in front of the bowl. Ellie, my roommate, walks in, probably to pee, but stops short when she sees I'm already occupying the premise, the surprise apparent in her expression.
"Oh, don't worry," I say. "You didn't walk in on anything."
"Oh...kay..." she says, but its clear from her tone that she doesn't believe me. From the way things look, I don't blame her.
There's sunlight streaming in from the window behind me which is in a wall that, in the waking world, is connected to my bedroom. In the dream world I don't find this the least bit suspicious, however, as I revel in the feel of gentle warmth on my back. Ellie is still there, I can tell she wants to know what I'm doing but isn't sure if she should ask so instead just hovers awkwardly.
"Have you ever tried to lucid dream?" I ask her.
"...no...?"
"Well, it's impossible. I've tried everything and I still can't do it." I pick up my dream journal, evidently the bound notebook, and shake it at her to emphasize my point.
She lifts an eyebrow in response.
Seeing that she doesn't understand my frustration and feeling to exasperated to explain things to her, I stand and make my way toward the door, figuring I can leave the bright, shiny toilet flusher to be examined at another time. As I do, I can't help but think that Jesse will be disappointed with me--a thought that lingers in my mind as I pass through the door and into the waking world.

The questions is, who the hell is Jesse?

The Basketball Late-Night Show (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

It was some kind of late-night talkshow. The guests on a couch were 3 basketball players one of which was basically Dirk Nowitzky with a freakishly large head. It looked like a glitching videogame. It was a bit frightening to be honest.

The show master and the 3 guests were loudly and intensely talking, laughing a lot. One of the guests had a basketball and the guys were throwing it around all the time.
At one point the showmaster, sitting on a desk in front of the guests got the ball and threw it away. The ball landed perfectly in a blue basket that was standing around in the corner of the room. The guests and the live audience went haywire, clapping and cheering.
Some guy appeared from under the showmasters desk, looking a bit dissatisfied and says something inaudible to the showmaster. The showmaster answers: "What? We rehearsed this!"

After this my first alarm clock went of which I had set because I wanted to try a WBTB thing. I had slept about 3 hours by now.
So I sat up on my bed, wrote down the notes about the 2 dreams I had, drank a bit from the bottle of water next to my bed and made myself ready for a WILD, laying down on my back. I never had success with this technique and I didn't this time either. I was just laying there constantly telling myself to have a lucid dream and that I wanted to revisit the hotel from my previous dream "The Familiar Hotel" but I just couldn't fall asleep.
After some time I stopped trying. I checked the clock (I hadn't moved for a solid hour, trying to get a WILD working) and tried to sleep in a more comfortable position. I couldn't. After those first 3 hours I didn't sleep at all this night.

Trying to get back to the hotel from my dream "The Familiar Hotel" will be my main goal for the next few nights.
I want to find out why this hotel seemed so familiar to me, what happened in the part of the dream that I don't remember anymore and, if I have some time left, do a task of the month.

Morning of February 15, 2014. Saturday.



I had apparently been working with colored pencils, mostly writing but uncertain of all the content other than having a focus on dreams. Different colors seem to relate to different dream types.

There is a feature of two pencils forming a cross, which seems to have some significance. One is blue, one is red.

I have an association with an intersection, which is a recurring feature in my dreams. It may relate (in this case) to having different views than someone else, or “going in a different direction”, yet in contrast, it also has the implication of meeting or coming together. Thus, there is the aspect of ambiguity.

The 10-person-bedroom (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in a 10 person bedroom. I guess it was some kind of a hotel.
A bag of stuff was lying in the middle of the room and I was somehow chosen to assign the stuff from the bag to the 10 beds. It was mostly clothing. I think it was 10 different outfits/customes.
While I was putting the outfits on the individual beds I noticed a bunch of buttons on a wall which turned out to be the controls for the electronic rolling shutters from the windows. I wanted to put them all up so I get some light in this room. The problem was the shutters weren't all the same. Some were older some were newer and it was hard to figure out how the individual controls of them all worked. I worked it out eventually though.
I continued putting the clothes on the beds after that. That's when I noticed that there was a giant entrance to a tube in one of the walls. Appearently it was a slide that led to another room in which my sister and my father were sitting and talking to each other. I was able to hear every single word. At some point they started to talk about me. I don't quite remember what they were saying but it wasn't anything positive.

After a while I got confused about my task and wasn't sure anymore if I had put the right stuff on the right beds.
My sister entered the room, told me I did a good job and grabbed something that was a weird mix of an audiocassette and a drinking glass. She asked me in a serious tone if I drank from that. I answered that I didn't and asked her why the hell she even has an audiocassette.

Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid Waking life notes

February 14, 2014:

I am walking through a college campus. I suddenly become lucid, for no apparent reason, and look around. I enter a room full of people. I want to find a woman who was in a class with me earlier. She was nice, but I don't remember anything else about her, so no one can help me find her.

I go into a classroom. There is a class in cession. It looks to be about something very boring. The class filled with only men. I say to them something like "Why are you having this boring class? This is a dream!"
I try to prove it to them by making a desk chair float. I lift it and let go, but the chair simply falls to the floor. I then put the chair on a table, with some difficulty. I put another desk chair on top of it, but they both fall over.
I am annoyed and disappointed and say "Why does my dream have normal physics?!"


Now, hours later in the day, I am wondering, why did my lucid dream objects behave that way? For a long while now whenever I try most things in a lucid dream that I can't do in reality, it feels like I am only pretending to do it, no different than if I did it in waking life. Why is this? Is my imagination lacking, for some reason?

2/14/14 Friday

Last night, came home at 9pm. Then had to work at home till 2:30 am. Fell asleep at 3am. Had my alarm set to 7am. Slept right through it. Woke up at 7:20 and flew out the door to make it on time.

Yeah, no surprise there, no recall.

Last time I had a short night, I got a great REM rebound next nite, when I was getting into a WILD just seconds after going to bed. But didn't hold it, fell asleep.

I already fell asleep on sofa today, got up to go to bed. But ofc, by the time I made it there I'm no longer sleepy : ( So I'm gonna read book about Cayce, i started reading during my break today.

DR from 2/12/14

Had a bunch of dreams. Too bad that I can't decipher what I wrote : (

All I have from 2:30 am dream is:

???bags with grapes?
toilet
fruit threw
walking away
water ???

Oh, now after finishing typing below, I did have a dream about going to toilet. Then I woke up thinking "why do I still need to go, I just went/"

Last DR is still clear:

I'm at a house of a family member Jucka. For some reason, she wants to give my bunch of her books. They look old. Those type that don't have colorfull bindings, just monochrome cloth type of thing. I keep looking at them in multiple bookcases, thinking, that my mom will love them too.

She also offers very neat and expensive coffee maker and flat screen TV. Here is when I get suspicious, if she is giving them free or for some money. It turns out not free.

She is also giving me her telescope. It's very cool, just a simple tube, but looks professional and sophisticated. Every time I look at it, it's bigger. Untill it's a telescope, that's sticking out of the roof, that is split open, just like at the observatory.

DR:
I'm at the guest house. Counting money. Somebody walks in. They are coming for a visit to the house, they just took a wrong turn to the guest house. I'm mad. They were not suppose to see the money. Now it's not safe there.

Journal Entry Lucid #8 Dream,Lucid, Comments)
Background: I watched an inspirational video when I did WBTB, I woke up around 3 am, I slept around 4:30 am . It was about success and becoming successful. I also watched a video about Mohammed Ali saying "I will show you how great I am". I watched this before bed. I didn't read about LD though. I went to sleep and I accepted that if I don't get a LD it is because I didn't work hard. Not because I can't have one. I said to myself 'I will show you how great I am'. I kept saying this imagining myself become lucid.

I had a dream but I got awoken up by my alarm at 5:50. I went back to sleep and got this.

Dream fragment 1 from 8:20pm-2:30am"": I was in some room and we were told to decorate something. This girl followed me around and I walked up to her and I said, "what is your name?"she said, "Cindy". She looked down at her shoe all shy. I walked around my sister's room she had art pieces that I have never seen on canvas. Her room is usually a mess so I didn't see it as much. I met some nurses on my way. They were telling me that they were nurses before they even had a degree. I came back to the room and Cindy already decorated it for me. She yelled surprise and everybody pops out of their hiding spot. The decoration looked colorful and vibrant but mostly childish and innocent. Their was flowers and little trees. I told her it looked magnificent and that she knows how to decorate. I thought in my head though, it is still a bit childish but it is fine.

This guy came tripped over a tree Cindy made and he rolled on a movable chair and he kept rolling around for a while. We were all laughing. It seemed that we were in a different context as he fell. The scene changed with out my notice. We were now in some sort of comedy sketch. Apparently porn stars came to watch the comedy sketch. These were not porn stars but people I know in waking life, they are not friends of mine just people that I see around some times. I laid down on three chairs as I watched the comedy sketch. I became aware of that and I thought I wouldn't normally act like this. I started becoming self conscious about myself but for some reason stopped caring. DC were getting upset because I was talking to my friend. They kept looking at me with disgust. Then the alleged porn stars started talking about their nipple piercing. I was still laying down so I didn't see it, but every one else that saw it became disgusted by it. The one that showed her nipple piercing left to her boyfriend. Apparently he forced her to get the piercing. I went outside with my friends to see the drama. I see this guy walking behind her, skinny scrawny guy. It looked like DMX. I started laughing, I said, "DMX is like give me back my crack women!". The DC started laughing with me, I didn't like what I said, I felt sad that I was laughing at somebody's misfortunes. This DC started starring at me, he gave me a death stare. I said to him, "If DMX didn't smoke crack he would be a better role model". He snapped out of the trance, and he said, "ah huh yeah". He grabbed a basketball and he made it. Then I caught the rebound. They had about three now. It kept coming to me. This guy walked by me with his basketball. We switched off. I left them to go inside.

I saw about 3 or 4 people. I thought there is no way all those people left through the door that I walked from. Their was a bigger door in front of us but I thought they couldn't leave that fast. Let me do a RC. I looked at my hands and counted 1..2..3..4...5 but as I was doing this I noticed that for each hand there was multiple copies of one finger as I moved it to count. I realized I was dreaming. I said I am dreaming to the DC. She looked at me without a care in the world. I told her to get out my way. She didn't want to move. I started to get very angry. I tried stabilizing the dream but couldn't. It got dark. I told myself to let go a little of my lucidity.I started seeing this bright light shaking and making, "Vhmmmm" noises.I lost full lucidity and had a dream about being on a YouTube video

Journal Entry non-lucid #34 Dream, non-dream (Comments)
Background: I didn't do any type of meditation. I didn't do any incubation or visualizations.

Dream fragment 1, 8:13pm-2:52am."": I remember walking to the living room. My sister was watching sponge-bob with me. She gave me a sandwich, she asked me to put something on it. As I was walking to the kitchen I thought what was that darn thing she asked for. I opened up drawers. I walked back to her and I said what did you want again? she said mayonnaise, I asked mayo or mayonnaise? not catching they are the same thing my sister said mayonnaise, I didn't catch it either. I went outside and I saw this machine that spun around squirting water all over the place and it propels itself.

I also remember my mother telling me about spirituality, and the part I remember most was an advice she gave me, "remember what makes you happy and try to let go what doesn't".I thought this was a much needed advice. I woke up feeling like crap on my neck and I realized I was tossing and turning nearly the whole night.

This is my first DJ entry on dreamviews.. a pretty awesome dream from last night!

I have been setting my dream intentions before bed for the past 2 weeks to go hoverboarding on the moon, or to travel through space, so this dream kind of incorporated both of these into something different.

I was in some futuristic town which I think might have been levitating in the sky. It may have been on another planet. I knew that some race was going on using these open-top futuristic hover board type platforms that you stand facing forwards on, and had a handle like a push scooter that you used to steer them. My brother was going to be competing, and before the race was starting since it was a few hours before, I got the idea that I really wanted to test out his craft.

I walk out to some beautiful porch type area which is several hundred feet in the air, and at the edge of the town, with stone or granite floors and flower beds on the raised areas, pretty tropical trees and plants every few feet, with a little roof extension over the dropoff. Everything was extremely vivid. There was a clear blue sky, and I could see clouds below me and a beautiful landscape beneath. It looked alot like an altered version of the porch you have in your room on Phantasy Star Online 2, a futuristic Japanese MMORPG. Next to the porch was an area with the levitating vehicle where you could step right into the vehicle and about 150 feet ahead, head into the racing tunnel. During that 150 feet, you are flying above the huge drop down to the planet below! I think I had 2 tickets in my hand, which must have been for the race or to be able to take a ride on the vehicle. I stepped onto the hovercraft and turned it on. I believe I became somewhat lucid at this point because I felt I had control over my actions. I started to move forwards, and as I left the area to step onto the craft, I looked back and saw a beautiful girl running up to the edge to join me.. I looked down at my hand and saw the two tickets and knew that I had got the other one for her. I had already left though and it was like it was too late to turn back.. there were no brakes or reverse that I could find..

I continued forward looking back at her and was upset that she wasn't able to join me.. As I made it to the entrance of the tunnel though, I felt excitement and adrenaline take over though! I began speeding through the tunnel which had turns, cool multicolored lights, a center barrier with exotic plants in it, and the occasional space in the middle to be able to turn around into the other lane. The lane on the other side was for the way back, like the returning lane during the race after you had made it to the other end of the tunnel. I looked down on the craft and found that there was a turbo mechanism you could turn on and it would give you a temporary boost in speed! It was like being in a futuristic racing video game first person! When I turned the boost on, the craft hurdled forwards much faster, and as I stood back up I saw that also in the racing lane, there were boost pads on the ground placed periodically as well. I wasn't sure whether these recharged your boost or gave you a temporary boost of speed as well, but when I passed over one, I got another huge boost in speed! It was a little bit scary since it was my first time driving this craft and wasn't exactly sure how to handle it perfectly, but was exhilarating none the less! I looked ahead on the track and saw that there was a circular red raised pad on the ground, kind of like in Sonic, which launches you in the air! I got scared that I would lose control if I went over one of these since it would launch me in the air, but as I neared closer, I got the urge to try anyways! Right before hitting the red launcher, I leaned back to brace myself and try to keep the craft upright in the air. As I hit it, it launched me about 10 meters (30ft) or more in the air! It kind of threw the craft around a little bit, but I was able to keep control, but as soon as I came back to the ground and gained control, I saw that immediately after the first one was a second!! I immediately hit the second one and again launched wayyy up into the air! It was awesome! As I landed again, I had a lot of speed. I believe I activated the turbo one more time afterwards, and went around a few curves on the track.

Once I had flown through a little more of the track I realized it might be a good idea to turn around and go back, and had a feeling that I had either already gone too far or that I shouldn't even be in there and was going to be in trouble for driving there. I searched for brakes, but realized that I either couldn't find them, or that the craft didn't even have brakes to slow down! When I realized this, I came up with the idea to just bust a hard left through one of the openings in the center barrier, and to turn back onto the oncoming track. I went for it, and leaned all of my weight to the left, and had to actually take my left foot off and put it down on the ground and do a sliding left turn with my foot on the ground kind of like on a scooter or motorcycle ha! I was able to maneuver it and do the 180 turn back onto the oncoming track.

I began heading this way back towards the beginning to take the craft back to where I got it from. After only driving this direction for about 30 seconds to a minute, I saw some people come onto the track on foot and block the area where I was headed. I began to panic and knew that I was in trouble and that they were trying to get me to stop. As I neared closer, I felt that I needed to try and get around them. I got closer, and slowed the craft down to make them think I was coming to a stop. When I was about 10 feet away, I went to the left, and swerved around the person trying to get me to stop. It took a moment to build speed back up and I was worried that even on foot they might be right behind me chasing after me and about to hop on the back of the craft to stop me! I was panicking and couldn't even look back and just gave it my all to try and speed ahead away from them. I saw another person in the distance preparing to do the same as the others, so again, I did the same thing as before! I was able to get past them as well, barely, and continued down the path.

My heart was pounding and adrenaline pumping, and believe I woke up at this point because I can't remember whether I made it back or not, but had plans in the dream in that point to make it back to the girl. It was a really exciting and fun dream, and somewhat what I've been telling myself I'd like to dream about before bed. The dream intention I've been setting though has been to ride a hoverboard on the moon and to travel through outerspace.. so I don't know if this was my subconscious interpretation of this but it was awesome nonetheless! Hope you enjoyed the read!Attachment 6558
