lucid *I became lucid while standing in a unknown room with my girlfriend. I focused on primarily stabilizing using the all of my five senses rubbing my hands together. I girlfriend in the dream made a loud noise and caused a false awakening.
Sleep Score: 71 Lucid Dreams: 6 Notes: It all happened with an impromptu WBTB, through a technique I haven't experienced previously. When I finally got back to sleep, instead of doing a RC I checked to see if I was sleeping. Checking my breathing and eyes I could detect that in RL that they had been functioning as if I was asleep. That thought about "was I sleeping" triggered 6 different LDs this morning.
Side-note Third-person Dreamsign The shark I'm in a small boat with two other guys. A larger boat is nearby. A shadow in the water is circling us, nudging us away from the big boat, I don't see a fin, but I know it's a shark. Research station I'm at a tropical research station. It's a picturesque place, with trees all around, a river to my left, and a row of low off-white buildings. Due to the government shutdown, many of the experiments running here have been ruined and will take months or years to redo. They can't even afford their normal buildings, so they're renting out a motel to have space for the few of them who are left to work in. Now, I'm driving, making a tight corner near the research base and driving up a mountain road. Messed up clocks I finally give up on my WILD attempt and try to check the time. First, I look at my phone, but it's showing something crazy. It looks like a clock, but the characters are thin and purple and show an impossible time. I'm concerned that something's crashed or gone haywire, but then I realize I was in the media player and this is showing the play time. I look at the clock on my nightstand and see that it's just short of eight o'clock, and I'm horrified: I overslept by nearly 2 hours, and I'm late for work by one hour. I check the alarm settings on my phone to see what happened. As far as I can tell, I set the alarm properly, but it never went off. This is the second time this has happened; I'm seriously concerned about the reliability of this phone now. I really had been trying to WILD; I must have fallen asleep during the attempt. City transit I'm in a city, driving, pulling out of a parking lot. A shuttle bus gives me room to pull out of the parking lot I'm in, which I'm grateful for - traffic is heavy. I get in the right-most lane, then move over another lane. This is a big road with at least 4 lanes in each direction. Now I turn onto a road, then realize it's the wrong one. It's fairly narrow and has no markings. Up ahead, I see a spot that looks like a good turnaround; when I get to it, it turns out to be a small parking lot with slots on either side of the road, so it's perfect. I swing right, then all the way around to the left. As I start to head back down the road, I see giant white arrows painted on it pointing the direction I was originally heading, against how I'm traveling now. Whoops: it's a one-way street. I'm not too far from the entrance, and no cars are coming, so I go ahead and drive back down it anyway. Now I'm on the sidewalk with my bike, walking beside it. I think about getting on it properly, but then I see another guy also walking with his bike - running, in fact, to get to a* traffic light and across the crossing before it changes. I follow his example. Now that I'm across the street, I think again about mounting the bike, but I can't figure out how. The handlebars are a kind of oval shape, so I try sitting on it, but that doesn't work at all. I'm coming up on a really crowded part of the sidewalk, so I fold up my bike a little, but not very well. Troy's road bike folds much more easily, and I consider again whether it was a mistake to get a mountain bike. Now the sidewalk across the street in front of me is completely blocked - it looks like people are getting ready to view a parade. I'm forced to turn right; I'm going to have to figure out how to get back where I need to be. Now I'm in hallways underground. Near the stairs out, I come across a troubled youth. He's black, with short frizzy hair, and he's mumbling something I can't really make out. My first reaction is just to avoid him and keep moving, but then I have compassion on him. I realize he probably doesn't get much love, and I determine to show him some. I rest my hands on his head, and he seems to calm down some. He's still mumbling something - I think it's about nuns or the Roman Catholic church - and I try to think how to tell him about the saving work of Christ. I happen to look down and realize that his right foot is about the size of my young daughter's, though his left foot is normal. A male teacher walks by and makes a brief comment about him. Attack animals Someone has engineered a bunch of little animals designed to take down a huge animal. I see them swarming the huge animal's feet, generally getting crushed underfoot. They're calling strategy to each other. Stuck Underground, I see a huge door. It's been damaged at the bottom, and there's a chipmunk boy scout stuck under it (he's wearing a red-and-green uniform). A nearby adult mole (also in uniform) is trying to figure out how to free the scout. Suddenly, flame erupts from the top of the door right above the scout and starts to drip down. The mole panics and flees, ashamed that he couldn't save the scout; but the flames actually end up burning away the part of the door trapping the scout, freeing him.
3.20 AM A really difficult dream to put on paper because dreams seem so logical when they're being dreamed...which may be great for physicists because things that defy logic are their bread and butter! Apparently a third person dream about a doctor who had some sort of illness and he sold some sort of chemicals given off as side-effects of his illness, but donated others because the illness was self-caused for some reason by association with a woman??????? No obvious DS's...no discernible reason why I should have dreamt it. Did a quick WBTB and tried an SSILD. I never notice any benefit other than it seems to relax me quickly. Usually I get halfway through the cycles and start to lose focus but this time I went from sleepy to stone-cold wideawake! Hmmm. I suspect that it also sometimes results in missed dreams...maybe I sleep deeper? 5.45 AM I'm driving a 1930's motor coach (or charabanc as they were called) around a hilly, winding (northern?) town trying to find somewhere to park it. It's a very cramped town but I eventually find somewhere (halfway across someone's drive) and go home t'wife and remark to her that "I hope it's going t' be OK" No real DS's (unless I count looking for a parking place as "looking for something lost" or "myself lost somewhere" The dreams seem so short and I think I'm missing great chunks of the beginning. I got up for an 1¼ hours then WBTB at 07.00 AM and tried to WILD (I spent the time I was up reading the tutorials) I fell asleep early on in the process but no matter...I'll just persevere...I'll get there in the end. 9.20 AM I'm working in a club (DS) and the proprietor is apparently a likeable bespectacled guy who wears a green barbour coat (a friend from years ago wore one of those so perhaps it's in Ed's memory banks) and this guy lived and died at his club. I assume I worked there (DS)...what as I don't know and I heard someone say "Here he comes" and I looked out a window. (You know that's the first time I ever recall looking out of a window) He was coming across his lawn pushing a wheelbarrow and a little girl was with him. Conclusion- Sparse on DS's last night. I really don't think SSILD is for me at the moment but I'm determined to master WILD. Most of my dreams could be called short (or only partly-recalled) and pretty domestic. When I get up to lucid fourth gear I aim to pep them up somewhat, but cut down on the violence..at the moment I probably come across as a bit of a homebody who'll kill you if provoked...
Okay, so it was late, I had been trying every two hours of sleep or so to WILD, unsuccessfully. But, around 3:30 am, I had my waterslide dream (previously posted in my DJ) and realized that this REM cycle was very vivid and perfect for a WILD. So, I tried again. I got very tired and began to see lights and orbs floating through my vision, and the next thing I know, I'm standing on the steps in my house. The first thing I did (since my mind is clouded with sex until I get it out of the way) was ask my sister Karen for her friend Alexis' number so I could call her down and have sex with her. She wouldn't give it to me, so I walked around the house and found this girl Rayshell who I then got to perform oral sex on me. IT was fine at first, but then I saw this waaay hotter girl from school - Alexandria, and I looked at my penis and made it grow (like 2 feet long!) and then got her to perform oral. After a while, my brother Erin came along and saw me, and I didn't care until he said: "I do that all the time.... I'm wilding right now too... we're sharing a dream right now." I didn't know if it was true or not (it wasn't) but either way I stopped. I went to my bathroom and began trying to make my penis grow even more, but I failed and, in dissapoinment, woke up.
I was at some sort of giant water slide park with my friend Auston and my sister Karen. We kept calling it Six Flags, but all that was there was water slides and, for some reason, bars and pawn-shop like things. We kept going down the slides on this circular 4-man raft and hitting the ramp at the bottom. At one point they sent me down by myself and I fell off. I got mad and went to the bar where I saw a lot of hot girls, who just ignored me. Then for some reason, I recall a pawn shop worker saying "...all the girls I get..." I got jealous, went back to the slides and woke up.
This dream happened a few times during my childhood and never changed in any way. Where I used to live was a park where I would go to play. It wasn't that far from home but it was a good place. To describe the experience, imagine a rectangle in a landscape position, the gate being in the bottom right corner. The jungle gym opposite the gate in the top right, tree house slide to the left of that and two sets of swings to the left of that, So all at the top of the rectangle. in the bottom left, where a tree once stood, was a shallow crater (circular). Dreaming Sequence: I am on the grass next to the gate being sucked into the crater which was a black vortex. The vortex was so strong that I was being dragged along the grass. When I was ten feet away, I passed a toddler's folded push chair, I grabbed it and threw it into the vortex. When I reached the vortex, I fell in and then woke up on my bedroom floor. Spooky dream!

I outlined my dream when I awoke, so I'm going to share as many details as possible and this dream becomes graphic right before I awake. ~~Dream I was biking on my diamond back bike that I had as a kid, through my elementary schools field during the night time. I went through and headed by the water tower, which brought me to an alley(all row homes, with small backyards think middle class suburbs.) that is not remotely connected to the pathway but leads back towards the elementary school. There were a few added tree's in the yards and along the alley it's self. I look up and see a house flying, I see something in the corner of my eye and it was an Osprey gunner, when it flew over me(above a tree out of view) it changed into a Pelican(helicopter from Halo) there were Spartans on it(Halo soldiers) and it landed behind me, backed up like a car then hoovered and shot at me. I was hit, didn't die instantly realized I was dreaming. Figured the theme of the dream was Halo, I imagined a war. It became very real, the area was flooded with Spartans and Covenant(Alien protagonist), since a Spartan attacked me I assumed, I was on the Covenants side. So I yelled drop 4 forerunners(old alien guys, if you played Halo 4 you'd be up to date here) around me. They attacked me so I realized it was me against everyone. I spin in circles(trying to keep the dream) then instantly imagined myself as a black hole and just pulled everyone in. It's extremely dark at this point. So I say 'make it brighter'. It becomes slightly brighter(similar to 1/100 ->2/100 on a computer). I say it a few more times and it's very subtle increase. So I changed my wording to 'make it 50 times brighter'. The area becomes lit like early morning, I say it a few times. I notice I'm in a building. I walk up some stairs behind me and see a room with people in it to the left. I go in and it's a younger version of a friend Scott and his Sister Anna and 3 decent looking girls. Well I tell Scott and Anna to leave. I walk into a room (it was like a secretary room to an office) behind the room I was in and, tell the 3 girls to blow me. They do, and it was like telling a computer how to initiate a program, I had to give commands and explain. Very inhuman then I awoke. Dream~~ The only things that I've gathered from this dream is To alter things, I have to 'issue a command'I play way to many video gamesI just become lucid from events in the dream You're all welcome to leave your thoughts and opinions below. I appreciate any feedback and enjoy sharing my experience.
A man got arrested, and he thought it was because he was successful in business so his enemies put together false charges. I remembered more upon waking up, but I lost it.
Oof, a long one. I dreamed I was reading a comic -- the art style is very detailed and "serious," kind of like a Hong Kong comic, except redone through Illustrator/Photoshop with color and detailing effects -- about a series of vignettes involving a fire demon(?) that took shape as a large snake. I distinctively remember the text was gibberish symbols, kind of like the ZOSO symbols Zeppelin used. I kept flipping through the book to get to cool parts that I knew was there, but I can never get to the page I want to. But eventually, I get to a particular scene, where the snake demon is in its pit-cave, and it is coiled around a Warrioress who, presumably, was there to vanquish it. She laments "hundreds of years of training... for nothing?" which is the first time I can recall dreaming of legible text. She was dressed inappropriately. This somehow bleeds into a DOS-era graphics character-select screen, and the warrioress was one of the 8 or 10 fantasy-setting characters you can choose. But after browsing through them, the characters came to life (looking like real people), and I'm suddenly also with them in a Shenanigans-styled restaurant where we are all the staff. A Pixar-animated bird was flying in the ceilings, and the lighting was dim, but pleasantly adequate. It felt like we are in a Seth Rogen comedy, but Rogen is nowhere to be found. He is the luckiest one of us all. It felt like we spent a long time preparing the menu, which were things that you'd find in a Whole Foods. I know the vibe of the food -- salad bars, soup bins, etc. -- but I don't know what specifically they are. But after wandering around the restaurant, I somehow end up in an apartment that I knew belonged to me. The apartment was in a small city like fucking Wenatchee or Monroe or something, but it also felt like I was in a city with a cool arts and culture vibe. Anyways, my apartment is sparsely decorated, and is quite spacious. I recall a main room, a bedroom with a bathroom (or, bath "space," as there are no doors between my bedroom and the bathroom. I don't notice this part immediately, by the way.), and a kitchen. I don't have the lights on, and I entered alone, but then I walk back out to the main room/kitchen and I see a conflux of my mom and L from work playing Hexic, and having a ton of trouble "getting" it. But just as it looks like Mom/L is about to achieve something my dad comes running in and presses random buttons to cause Mom/L to lose. For the lulz. When I look out my bedroom window, I can see that I'm in a mid-sized city, and it's night out. Suddenly, I'm on a motorcycle down those same streets, going at a nice steady clip. I think I was looking for somewhere to get a bite to eat, and I'm travelling down a really, really long road. I zip past huge buildings, hotels, structures, and at one point a walled-off medieval European castle that also resembled Jabba's Palace a little. I eventually end up at a University, and after riding past the quad, I end up in a grass field that has a steep drop that leads to more grass fields, and the rest of the/another bigger city can be seen in the distance. I now have my comforters with me, and I wanted to lie down and sleep under the stars, but I chose not to because I know students will come by in the morning and it's gonna be awkward to see a guy sleeping in the middle of the campus. I immediately end up back in my apartment, and this is when I noticed the bathroom. About this time, I wake up and actually have to pee in real life.

I'm at Big W, and I see Drew D(childhood friend). I tell him about when we stole an ice cream from the shopping center when we were younger. He laughs and knows what I'm talking about. I tell him about the crunchie ice cream I stole. I hear an announcement over the speaker. It's about everyone having to leave the store, as they're closing up. I also hear something about a couple of groups still in the store. I think I may have been one of them? As I'm leaving the store, I see someone who looks very familiar and know of them somehow (I don't know who). He tells me that I have been chosen for something. I definitely didn't expect this, which makes me excited. I soon realize it's about me being in a movie. I see a piece of paper with what was happening on it. My screen name is printed on it, but it's different. It says something like DEILD-CHiLLEN or DEILD-DEAN (I don't think the DEILD was spelt correctly though). I seem to have a big part in this movie where I have been chosen to record 11 dreams. I tell the guy, I could record 11 dreams within the week. It crosses my mind, If I couldn't remember 11 dreams, I could always use dreams that I've previously had logged in my dream journal, or make some up to make myself sound as If I had some awesome dreams. I see a $800 above my category where my name was printed. It seems to get the most amount of money, compared to the rest of the categories. I'm outside the shop, and I'm talking to the same guy. I tell him that he's a good guy and an honest one.
16.08.13 Its a long times since i had this dream, and to be honest it has fallen completely to my unconsciousness. What i mean about that is that i have no recall of this dream, what so ever, and it just makes it even more random to read. The dream fragment: I was dreaming that i took a shower, and when i exited the dream i saw a huge spider walking around. It was so big that it almost didn't fit in a jar, but when i caught it and put it in there, it died. Clearly a symbolic thing, i see now, that i dream of spiders quite a lot. Anyways, that was not the only thing. I actually had a some kind of tiger or leopard, a big cat, that i used to shower with, and i was showing it of to everyone i knew (of course not when i was in the shower.)
02.08.13 The dream fragment, and thoughts: I was on some kind of class trip (i don't go to school anymore), out in a fjord somewhere. In the nights, i was sleepwalking and supposedly did all sort of strange stuff. Like tearing up milk-packs and putting them inside of each other. I was very scared of what i did when i was sleeping, because i did all these advanced activities, that made no sense at all. Afraid that i would do, or had done something bad.
01.08.13 The scenario: In the dream, some sort of alien species has attacked earth and wiped out most of the human civilization. Those who are still alive, are living in small groups. Some just trying to survive and stay out of sight, others beliving that there is still a chance of defeating the opposing alien threat. This dream is about the "Alien Resistance Force". The dream takes place in some sort of forest, hard to say where, quite dense vegetation, but not quite as tropical as a jungle. High trees and a canopy that is so thick that almost no sunlight shine trough. I don't quite remember the appearance of the aliens, but they where about one and a half time as big as a normal human, and was blackish in their skin. The fragments of the dream that i can remember: In the dream i am either an observer, or a little child. (maybe both). The last resistance camp (not sure if in just this area, or in the whole world) had been exposed, and the aliens was moving in to attack. During this time, most of the camp was out patrolling and scouting. While i was watching one of the scout groups, the aliens moved in on the camp and slaughtered everyone, and everything. I remember seeing the camp in the aftermath, when a group returned. All that was left alive, was a badly injured cow, which was almost cut in half and sprayed blood out of its lungs every time it tried to breathe. It was a horrible sight. The scouting group was in an old ruin at the time the aliens caught up with them. The group thought that the aliens was not aware of their presence, so they tried to hide. It did not work, and the battle was futile, all but one little boy and his wolf was killed, with almost no alien casualties. The boy managed to escape, and made his way with the wolf pup up trough the forest and to the mountains. Where he would try to survive and train the wolf to help him.
I'm sitting outside my home town shopping center square, a popular spot for people to hang out. I'm with people I know, including family. I'm now at my old house in blacks land. I walk over to the sink and see my cousin Grace, eating something that looked similar to a LeSnack (cream cheese and biscuits). I tell her that it can be better, instead of a LeSnack. She agrees with me as I leave to go back to the kitchen table where the rest of the family is. My auntie L begins to laugh at me, and says that I try to use my charming skills on family members. I deny what she is saying and tell her that I'm just friendly and may just come off that way. I joke around and say that the ladies fall in love with me, or as I should put it, like me. My auntie responds with that they fall in love with me, with their head, not their heart. I'm back at the center square and girls from my high school keep coming up to me. They want to be in a relationship with me. I politely decline each one of them. I now see more girls walking in a line, all holding a piece of paper up with my name. I once again, shake my head and wave my hands for them to carry on walking (lol Casanova, eat your heart out!). I don't have that physical attraction towards any of them. Another girl walks up to me and I decline, ONCE AGAIN, but this time she reacts by trying to slap me, but I see it coming. I stand up in disgust, and explain that how she could slap someone for not wanting to be in a relationship, while doing nothing wrong what so ever. I put her back in her place and she is speechless. I see her Mother behind her, and she pulls her daughter away so that they could leave. I hear someone say that the girl who tried to slap me was in fact Nick's sister(Attended my school), and that he wouldn't be too happy with me. I see Nick come towards me, but walks straight passed me. It's as if he doesn't see me. I wake up.
