    1. 20th Aug 2013 Few fragments

      I should really stabilize my schedule, again.

      I was playing some video game, there was something about dragons, and then spiral knights, then later some RTS and also i was talking to MC at some point.
    2. Colin

      by , 08-20-2013 at 09:30 PM
      3rd person, following a blond guy named Colin. He's frustrated with his relationship, and as he's lying in bed, he decides to invade the dream of an ex-boyfriend. The ex, a kind of hippie-looking guy with curly hair, is in another relationship now and doesn't want to cheat, even in a dream, which Colin thinks of as ridiculous but also part of why he's fond of this guy, so he just transforms himself to look like the ex's current boytoy.

      But a stray thought about the failed relationships he's had since this guy causes the dream scene to change to show those relationships. (Meaning my dream, not Colin-and-his-ex's dream.) For a while he'd been hooking up with a demon, who was a real sweetheart but they never managed to turn it into anything more serious than occasional hookups. Then for over a year he'd lived with this guy who works at the expat bar, and Colin can't believe he put up with that guy for so long - great lay but massively uncomfortable with witchcraft. He would never even set foot in the basement where Colin worked, and he'd make these 'in the closet' jokes about 'broom closets' and then explain the joke every time, hahah, closet, broom closet, witches, get it - what a douche. Colin thinks he should've done it the other way around - hookups with the bartender, move in with the demon.

    3. first lucid dream

      by , 08-20-2013 at 08:15 PM
      10th of November 2012, first entry in my first dream journal from last year, first lucid dream

      I decided to add this dream because it was by far my biggest achievement before quitting and then restarting my practices 3 months ago

      The dream started in the auditorium of my school where I was writing math exams. Usually we write exams in our class room, but the whole school was writing those exams so everyone was sitting in this huge room with their calculators.
      So I take the exercise sheet and try to start. However I'm interrupted by a teacher who seems quite angry. He just comes closer, mumbles something and complains about me. All of sudden he just rips off one edge of my maths sheets. I tell him to leave me alone so he does that. After looking at my exercise sheets again, all of the exercises have changed all of sudden. To be honest I didn't notice anything and I didn't even care because I just wanted to get started.
      After a while however I just randomly got up and left the room. I go to the school entrance where I find my best friend whom I got to know on my Exchange Year in New Zealand. Her name is Anna. So I walk up to her and start talking: "Anna? Why the hell are you in my school? How did you get to Germany?" She looks delighted and confused at the same time. I conclude: "Wait, hold on. I'm dreaming. OMG Anna, I'm dreaming! I can do anything now, see?" *I hug her which feels incredibly real and vivid*

      After that I tried to decide what to do. I didn't know any stabilisation techniques at this point so I thought about taking her with me and flying to a nice place, but before I was able to come up with any idea, I hear my mum dropping a plate in the kitchen (she always gets up early) so I start to feel my sleeping body and my focus shifts which instantly wakes me up.

    4. Squirrel Hurts My Ass and Holiday

      by , 08-20-2013 at 08:04 PM (Covlad96's Road to Lucid Dreaming)
      Dream 1

      I with my mum and I was waiting to play some game with her, she was pretending to be asleep and I had waited for an hour. She wakes up and says she dosen't want to play anymore. I am angry after waiting all this time.

      Then I'm on my phone having a conversation with someone on twitter about this tv program and school, she was from a school called 'Aston'.

      Dream 2

      I am back in Italy once again, it is the last day and there is an awards celebration happening later. I am in my room which I am sharing with about 10 people. One girl asked me to take a photo of her with her camera. She stood on her bed and posed. I took a number of photos.

      I am then at the place, there is a stage and I am backstage and outside there is a whole lot of tables everywhere for friends to sit together on. The two girls from my room are there.The presenter then says "And for this years hottest girls goes to..." I forgot what there name was. They were very embarrassed and didn't want to walk out on the stage but in the end did so.

      I am then walking to the toilet and one of my teachers stop me, it is night time and they ask "Why are you wearing sunglasses?" I realise I am and its even darker with them on, so I take them off. She then started telling me about how one of her friend has a limp. I tell her that someone I know has got one too, she says "Oh yes! I know him! That's not good." The conversation ends and I think 'Shall I walk off or does she still want to talk to me?' I awkwardly walk off to the toilet.

      I am in a cramped toilet and there is me and one guy in there who looks really ill, like he's going to be sick. Hes pacing back and forth between the sink, rubbing his forehead, sweating. I notice his glasses are on the floor. I don't ask him what's wrong because I thought he was just drunk. Then he leans over a sink, I assume he's going to be sick. But as he makes the sick noise, sweat pours from his back. WOAH WTF?! I think how strange this is. I then ask "Are you ok?" he dosen't answer, he looks embarrassed like he gets asked this question all the time. I drop the question. Instead I pick up his glasses off the floor and hand them too him. I walk off.

      Dream 3

      I was in a room downstairs, both of my doors were fully open. I hear a scream from my sister outside and a laugh from my brother. I turn round and see a squirrel running at me. It runs up and jumps off the floor, pushes off my head and onto the lights. It felt like I was punched in the head. It then jumped off the lights and grabbed onto my ass. It pulled me onto the floor, I fall over lying on my back with this squirrel next to me. It shoves its claws up my ass! I am in so much pain, I was being violated! It then started biting my hand, then pain was too much. I try headbutting the squirrel but it was not working. "JAMIE! JAMIE GET IT OFF NOW!" I scream to my brother. He was just standing over me laughing. The squirrel finally gets off and runs off. I cannot believe it.

      I am then outside my infant school, for some reason everyone is driving there cars into walls and flying out the windscreen just for fun. This isn't fun I think, you could die doing that. I then start telling people about my squirrel story and everyone wants to see it. I tell them its at my friends house up the road. Everyone runs up and we see smoke smoldering out of a house. I notice the house is on fire, nobody is in. I am going to have to go in and put it out. Me and one friend run in and try and find the fire, we run upstairs and we here police sirens. They think I have caused the fire. Soon I see lasers pointing at me from snipers, I have to jump. I jump out the window from two stories, the dream ends!

    5. In the End

      by , 08-20-2013 at 07:18 PM
      Probably one of my newest favorite dreams!

      I had actually just gotten out of a dream where I was in a car along with a few other people I met back on a trip to Alaska. Now, I'm going to say who but I had some feelings for one of these people. She was a girl and although I never made much contact with her on my trip, I usually never do when I find someone attractive. Anyways, later on, I find out that I'm using Blender on a laptop while in the car. Strangely, I knew exactly what I was doing inside the software...But while doing this, I'm paying a lot of attention to that one girl sitting next to my sister besides me.

      Later on I find out that all of us were on a trip. We took a stop at a Motel 6 and walked in to the building complex where we had to sign in. As we were about to sign in, I see these two very young boys touching things they weren't supposed to(phone cables, folders, papers behind the staff table). Everyone in the room giggled as one of the staff members struggled to help control the children.

      At this point, I have already entered sleep paralysis. I know this because I could feel my body stuck to my bed when I had my eyes closed. I was unable to move but I tried my best to get out of it by moving my muscles from my hands, towards my arms, and later on my torso.

      It was very hard. I also remember a sense of dizziness, or sensation, when I tried to move myself too quickly. I eventually gave up and thought to try something else out. I knew you can try and achieve a lucid dream during this, so I thought I'd give it a try. I closed my eyes(while a demon is yelling over my ear) and remained as calm as I could. This is when I first started seeing images in my head. I saw numbers. They were flicking back and forth. I stared at them and thought of a dream I wanted to be in. It didn't make any sense at first, but I knew I had to give it a try. There was only one beautiful scene I wanted to be in, my old elementary school.

      I imagined the playground of the school and thought about past dreams in which I had a great time here. But while picturing it all, it was almost as if I was telling a story that had already happened. Because of that, the scene didn't look so much like the school, it looked more like a desert inside of the school. I could feel that I was at the school because of sun's brightness and how happy everything felt.

      SO MANY DREAMS!!!

      Okay!

      First, there was this strange competition where you had to have... worm-like things in your mouth. Not the entire thing, though, they had to have their "heads" out of your mouth, so that they could spit while you ran. It was very weird. Anyway, I didn't do well on the competition. My worm thingy wouldn't spit, it was all soft and weak, so I had to spit it out. People thought I was throwing up and I couldn't explain to them that I wasn't (I NEVER throw up... last time I threw up sober, I was six - 1996, and last time I threw up drunk, it was in 2009). Then my dad came along, checked my worm and said that I had taken one that had been on the sun for too long. He pointed to a bucket and told me that the good ones, that were swimming in cold coconut water, were there.

      Second dream, I got close to getting lucid. I was locked in a room, it looked a little like a hotel room. There were some girls there and I thought I was dating one of them. She was lying on the bed, all weird. I hugged her, then I looked at her and I thought "hold on a second. I'm not dating anybody. And even if I were, I wouldn't date HER. She's ugly" so I backed away. I looked at her again and her face all red. It looked weird, like red spots. I looked around and saw that some of the others also looked like that. And they were bleeding a little too. I wanted to get out, but there were zombies out there when I opened the door. I found a girl who seemed okay and we sat in a corner by ourselves.

      Third dream, I had left a prison. I think I had run away, though, because I still had some weird stuff, preventing me from using my hands/arms too much. They wanted to catch me, so I threw myself at the sea. I swam a little and found this cave. I entered and there were many people wearing the same stuff. They looked at me and said "welcome, you can enter. That's your invitation" they told be and pointed at the thing on my hands. I nodded, thanked them and started walking around there. I found a guy who seemed to know me and he was all "I can get those off for you, you just have to pay me! But I'll give you a discount" so I looked at the thing and realised all I had to do was pull the rope. I did it and told him I wouldn't need his help.

      Fourth dream, I was under a desk and there those two aliens/robots that kept coming and going. I think they were looking for me and I was really visible, but they couldn't see me. Again, I almost got lucid, cause I kept thinking "they won't see me, they can't" even though I knew they could and should see me. Later on, I managed to get up while they were gone and I think I made a phone call so that people would know they were there.

      Fifth dream, I was supposed to get inside a car with my parents. I did after some time and we drove to this restaurant. Except that they wouldn't let me go inside because it was too expensive. I was okay with that because they didn't go inside either. There was a bit of a party/reunion going on outside, so it was fun. Then, I saw some people waling together and they seemed friendly, so I joined them. They were happy to have me there and we went up some stairs. There was a lot of cheese and other stuff to eat too, but I was more interested in the cheese. We sat down and this one girl was talking to me. She asked me about my paper and I noticed they all had papers. Then I realised I was inside the restaurant that was too expensive. I told her I didn't have a paper, I had just walked in. She laughed and told me I could order stuff and put on her paper, and if the restaurant people didn't let me leave (you had to show the paper to leave, proving that you had paid everything), she would pay for everything, so I shouldn't worry. I thanked her and continued to eat my cheese.

      EDIT: I remembered another dream! I was in a weird place, like a cave too, but unlike the cave from the other dream. People from DV were talking to each other, like on the threads, but in real life. I remember a woman (who, in my dream, was Ophelia) pulling another woman's hair (who, in my dream, was Joanna - she looked nothing like Joanna, though), and they were sorta arguing. But they were also laughing and joking. Confusing.

    7. 8/20/13 dream- floating forums and killer game pits

      by , 08-20-2013 at 05:57 PM (Dark Kikyo's Dream Journal)
      Last night I had a non lucid dream. All throughout the dream I would check in with the thread I'm currently keeping up with right now in real life, but I wouldn't do it with a computer. When I wanted to check it I would simply think that I wanted to, then it would pop up floating in front of me. The main part of the dream was very dark and twisted. There was this huge pit with a landscape in it and in the pit would be a family of 5, a father, mother, and their kids. It was like a sick game, you were up against another person and the object would be to find and capture these people individually with your mind as they ran around hiding, and if you didn't find them first then your opponent would kill them. I remember I was doing this for a good cause of some sort, like I knew the family or something. Anyway, I played a couple times, and while I didn't save everyone every time, I did manage to end up saving the teenage daughter for good. After doing that I walked around a building from room to room until I found Nickelback. Who knows why he was there, but he seemed happy to see me because I was the one who saved the teenage girl and he liked her. Then he told me about how he was trying to do some kind of thing where you shoot off straight up into the sky. After he got done telling me this, the girl popped up beside me and started telling him off, saying he was a stupid, insignificant, person and his music was crap. He became saddened and didn't say another word, and I felt bad for him. The dream faded after that and I kept sleeping for a little bit more, without dreaming, until I woke up.

      I wasn't going to type this one down because it doesn't really mean anything to me, its memorable, but I don't feel like it's significant. I came to the conclusion that I may as well. It is a dream after all and this is my dream journal, where I record my dreams.
    8. More acid

      by , 08-20-2013 at 05:48 PM
      Had a sheet of acid and ate two of them. Shit got weird fast. I started tripping out and felt like I was in a sandstorm vortex. Afterwords I was with friends who said I'd have to pay 20 for the two hits which I though was expensive.

    9. Hey Kid Guess What, You're a God

      by , 08-20-2013 at 05:17 PM
      This dream is split up into three parts; a part before that focuses on my two new dream brothers, a middle intermission sort of thing where I become lucid and teach some hobo-looking guy how to become lucid as well (and fly of course), and a third part with all the psuedo-Norse mythology woven in.

      The first part I don't remember too well. My mother had given birth to two baby boys, that were apparently fist-sized and swimming in a coffee concoction with marshmallows (I tasted a cup of it without a baby in it; it was actually pretty good and tasted like hot chocolate with a bit of coffee, but I had no idea what a baby was doing in it; I think it may have been some sort of life support because they were so tiny?) Most of the time in this part of the dream I just talked with my family, including the brothers (yes, they could talk). At some point the dream abruptly switched to a zombie apocalypse game similar to a TF2 server I play on. Since there were no classes in reality, the best way to survive was to hide, so I hid alone behind my mom's bed (I should mention that most of the house was different, but my mom's room and a nearby hallway were the same as in reality). No zombies ever drew near, and eventually time ran out and I won. Most of my family (including aunts, uncles, etc) had become zombified, leaving only my immediate family alive (sans the brothers, they vanished at this point): me, my sister, and my mother. My memory of the dream is shaky from here, but I believe we play again. This time, there are classes from TF2, so I switch to engineer and build a sentry in my mom's hallway. I put a dispenser behind me, and two teleporters in front of the sentry (in-game they stop a variant of the demoman class called a demoknight from charging due to the small height change). I wish that I had more support and turn around to see that there are two more sentry guns placed behind me from two friendly engineers; I later realize this is impossible because the max limit is two engineers, but I paid no attention to it. The dream is fuzzy from here.

      Notably, my father never appears in this segment, my real one or otherwise.

      In the intermission, i'm at a park; it was sort of like an area of New York I had seen, it may have been Central Park. I notice something is amiss and I become lucid. The vast majority of the people walking around also seem to wake up as if they had become lucid in their own dreams, and they collectively fly away together. A man is left behind that looks sort of like a hobo, who looks pretty grim. I ask him what is wrong, and he says he doesn't know how to control his dreams. I go over the basics for him and then I goof around with flying (which I have not done for several months due to a lack of LDs; fortunately for me, they have begun returning and i'm getting one every few days now).

      At some point during the intermission (not sure when but it was before I came lucid), i'm standing in a classroom. A very pretty girl asks me where I live, and I respond (for whatever reason she says that it isn't a real town even though she asked me if I lived there by name, and I say that it is). She then tells me where she lives tells me that she likes me (lelz) and that she would like to meet me at her house. Since it was pretty hard to refuse, I said "all right". She then vanishes before my eyes. The dream gets fuzzy from there on out, but I remember being annoyed that she simply vanished and that for as long as I can remember in that part, I stayed in the classroom.

      After this, I lost lucidity.

      The third part is a continuation of the first part. My family (this time with a father, though not my real father) has moved into a new house. It's several years into the future; my sister is only at the house for a small time as she has to go to New York for school, and the brothers are now around four years old and walking (and capable of advanced speech; this doesn't surprise me even now, as they could talk while they were swimming in coffee). I begin to feel jealous of my brothers, now that I am not an only child (this is false, I was never an only child; I conveniently forgot my sister here). I walk around our new house, exploring (it looked miles better than the old one) and chatting with my family. Eventually, I got annoyed and went outdoors. There are a couple of farm buildings around our house (but no barn). I approached one and discovered that we now owned some sort of chimera-like creature, a horse with a giant chicken head. It's behavior was a lot like a dog, though it also acted like a cat in that it wasn't very noisy. For whatever reason, I decided that it was a good time to fly away, so I flew up and over the trees surrounding my house. I was flying horizontally with my belly facing up and my back towards the canopy. Occasionally, I would see a massive tree that looked something like a deciduous redwood. I had to dodge one once, as it was in my way. They got more and more abundant the further I went, and eventually the canopy of one of the smaller trees below me rose up enough to stop me in my tracks and entangle me. I struggled to get free. After a while, I managed to get out, and I promptly flew back the way I came, this time actually looking where I was going (in other words, I flew with my belly facing the canopy and looking forward rather than my belly facing the sky and looking up).

      After some time, I reached my house again. I was very fed up with how everything was going, so I decided to leave (somehow) by "exiting out of the server" as if it were a game. I magically opened up a menu, but in place of what I expected to be "exit", it instead said "ascend". I clicked on ascend (somehow), and out of nowhere some sort of a valkyrie appeared, said some things I don't recall, and caused a kind of magic spring to appear at my feet.

      A few things to note about the spring; it wasn't in the ground at all, it was on the surface surrounded by these crystal walls that shimmered various cool colors (primarily purple, pink, cyan, and blue in that order of rarity). Some of the rocks lying on the ground near the spring also became the same kind of crystal, but it was merely a pale, transparent gray. Dipping it in the water caused it to glow like the crystal walls for a moment before fading back to gray. The walls themselves had some sort of a pattern on it; there were waves (or was it a pattern of double helixes?) etched into the crystal, but in the center of each wave was a circle. The water itself, as I said, caused the crystal to grow. However, the water tasted excellent! It was just cold enough, with a very faint sweetness, and you could almost taste pure power in it. I sensed that it had healing properties as well.

      I went back inside. The brothers, my sister (she was back somehow), and my mother had no idea what it was, and my whole immediate family was standing on the second floor looking out a window at it. I said something about it, (I think I said something incredibly out of character, along the lines of "So what, i'm barely old enough to summon it..."; when I said this, the number 3102 flashed in my vision briefly) and my "father" reacted. He said something along the lines of "You summoned that, boy? You shouldn't have done that! Not with all these omens, anyway..." He got angry, and (switching back to video game elements) I said that I could just reload from my last save to before I summoned it. He questioned me further and I told him that it was from some time before I summoned it but after I went outside, and he told me to reload the save. I did.

      I was back outside, in a second stable (the first one from before contained the chicken horse; this was a different one). There were, for whatever reason, female rumps sticking out of the walls. My sister was nearby and called me a pervert. I shrugged it off and left the stable.

      The dream gets fuzzy from here, but I made sure not to click the "ascend" button again. After some time, the valkyrie came again and took me away.

      Next thing I know, i'm in a very small sort of mausoleum. It's floating off the ground, and it's made of a transparent gray glass, and it's lined with some sort of gold-colored material. Outside, I can see thousands and thousands of excited people crowded in some large circular walled-in area; it's a very grand looking place, made of stone and decorated with the same gold material as in the mausoleum. I can detect that you can only see through the glass from the inside; the people on the outside cannot see me or anything else in here. I stop looking outside and look ahead. In front of me is a very old yet powerful looking man, and behind him is a stone coffin. Next to me is the valkyrie; for the first time, I can get a good look at her. She's half my size, so I assume she's a dwarf; she looks kind of like She-Ra, but with slightly darker skin, and she also has angel wings. The old, powerful man explains to me that he is Odin and that I am his heir, and that I am next in line to take his place as a god. He then explains my job (quickly) and that the valkyrie was my servant. He wishes me luck and enters the coffin. For a moment, my vision shifts out of myself and I can see the mausoleum from the side; once Odin enters the coffin, his robe-like clothes pop on to me, and my vision promptly switches back to my eyes. The coffin vanishes, and the mausoleum rockets up and eventually shatters.

      The valkyrie and I are both floating high above. Since i'm now a god, I decide to exit the arena-like place and fly around the city a little. It's quite spectacular with the gold decorations and the stone (I like stone ), though I still have no idea what it is (it matches up to a Christian heaven more than Asgard). Shortly, the assistant valkyrie mentions that I have duties to attend to (unsurprisingly) so I ask what they are. She says that I have to create more of those magic pools I had seen earlier. Since I was new to the job, the valkyrie would help me with this one. She showed me that I had a way of calling upon a radar to see where I was needed (I explain it at the end of the page), and she showed me a rather danger-free area where a pool was needed. She poked the spot on the radar where the pool was needed and we both teleported there.

      I appeared on the ground in a small town that looked similar to one in Skyrim in Whiterun hold. This was fitting, as the word "Skyrim" appeared in white letters in the middle of my vision, and faded out soon. The valkyrie began walking in some direction, and I followed her; we eventually found a sort of hay-filled indoors area where a person was sitting. The valkyrie showed me the incantation required to summon the pool, and soon enough a magic pool very similar to the one created for me when I hit "ascend" appeared. Something was amiss, though, and soon the valkyrie noticed several tiny blue imps with pitchforks flying around in the sky. The dream was fuzzy here, but I seem to remember a second valkyrie appearing to deal with the imps and both me and the assistant valkyrie heading back to the city.

      People in the city were starting to riot; the blue imps were here, too. Here and there were a couple of valkyries fending them off, but even though they killed plenty they seemed to keep coming. The assistant valkyrie told me that in order to stop them, I had to create more of the pools, which would somehow help the valkyries fend off the imps. Unfortunately for me, the assistant had to stay and fight or else the city would be overrun by the imps, so I had to summon the next pool alone. Worst of all, the pool was required in the red region, and the valkyrie mentioned that most valkyries that went there did not return, and that I had to be very careful; it was probably best, then, that she stayed or else she would be slain.

      When I poked the place where I was needed, it took me to a sort of overhead look at some sort of organic place. Two people were talking in the background, and saying that it was a wretched place and it was a miracle that people survived there at all. They mentioned one small town which was apparently major, and said that it was conquered by some sludge thing.

      Eventually, I found myself in some sort of a fleshy tube. The path ahead was filled with all manner of nasty monsters. My view zoomed out so I had a third person view of myself, though as a consequence I lost control of myself. The Valkyries were right; I was having a tough time killing the monsters here (I even encountered one of the sludges that singlehandedly wiped out a town, as the two voices mentioned that gave me a hell of a time), and I was a god. The dream fades as I fight in the horrifying place, and I wake up.



      A few notes on this dream: from what I can tell, the valkyrie is based off of the one from Nethack. It's especially probable, considering that the first time I seriously played the game and for a good while after that, I was a dwarf valkyrie. The strange thing, though, is that dwarven valkyries are always lawful, and lawful valkyries (whether dwarf or human) worship Tyr. Only neutral valkyries (which as I said cannot be a dwarf and must be a human) are capable of worshiping Odin. The dwarven valkyrie also could not have been wearing a Helm of Opposite Alignment, as that would make her chaotic rather than neutral and she would thus worship Loki instead. This indicates that, in order for her to become neutral by in-game standards, she would have to pray at a neutral altar with negative alignment as a lawful valkyrie, which would cause her to lose luck (meaning she would probably no longer be able to pray) and would change her alignment to neutral. What surprises me is that this valkyrie is probably the one most loyal to Odin, despite the fact that it would take a long time to get to good standing with Odin compared to a human valkyrie that started out worshiping Odin.

      The position of Odin in this dream world is probably in name only. From what I theorize, the original Odin in this world is actually long-dead, unless the dream world is incredibly young. The various Odins are not immortal like you would expect a god to be, and age just like a human and can die of old age (though they probably are immune to disease and whatnot since they ARE gods). Thus, when they get old, they choose the next suitable person; this happens to be their heir, if there is one. Thus, the old Odin dies, and the heir takes up the throne and becomes a new Odin. Sort of like the Dread Pirate Roberts from The Princess Bride.

      Of slight note is that I, as Odin, did not use Gungnir. I had a whip of some kind. Granted, when I ended up in combat, the dream started falling apart.

      Apparently, hitting the Ascend button changed the timeline. In the button where I got the magic pool, someone else must have become Odin, and the valkyrie showed them what they needed to do to create the pool; since the valkyrie created the pool for me the first time it was required when I was Odin, this would explain why the valkyrie created the pool for me when I hit Ascend, since I became Odin in the second timeline at roughly the same time as I got the magic pool in the first timeline.

      Allow me to explain the radar: it was shaped like a semicircle and split into five parts. The leftmost part was red, the part above that was some kind of greenish red (isn't that an impossible color?), and the remaining three points were green. I believe the green areas indicated areas of low danger where pools were needed. Since an area in the red zone took me to the horrifying place, I can only assume that the red areas are the dangerous areas. The greenish-red area must lead to an area of slightly more danger than the completely green areas (it wasn't THAT reddish) but I never went there so I could not tell. There was also a button centered on the bottom that took me back to the city with the gold gilding.




      Holy crépes that was long. Haven't had a dream that long in a while. My recall must be improving.
    10. my first time in the USA

      by , 08-20-2013 at 04:33 PM
      20/8/13

      I am in a hotel room in some foreign country. I somehow have this feeling that I am in Canada very close to the US border so after having some smalltalk with my parents I decide to take the car and drive across the border just to get an idea of what things are like "on the other side". My mum told me to get a map so that they can go hiking later. So as soon as I cross the border without any problems I encounter a sign on the side of the road which limits the speed to 77 km/h. I notice this, start to brake and wonder... 77? Very strange speed limit. However my subconscious reacts immidiately as if not wanting me to become lucid and puts another speed limit sign 100 meters further down the road which says 60km/h (~ 37 miles/h) which makes a lot more sense than 77. After a while I see that some parts of the road are cobbled so now it makes total sense to limit the speed... my awareness seems to be satisfied and doesn't question the dream anymore (sadly). I encounter a few tractors since this is quite a rural area.

      After a while I arrive at a small town. I stop at the next petrol station which also has quite a large supermarket in it. Somehow a friend of mine appears so we go inside together. I really want to get some American sweets and try them so I buy some sort of marshmallow cookies/waffles with chocolate (strawberry and hazlenut flavour), the map my mum wanted me to get and some other cool things. I also wanted to buy some things from the deep freezer, but I don't want them to melt in the car so I leave them where they are, however I marvel at some of the ice crystals in the deep freezer because they are extremly large and have a beautiful blue tint.
      After putting all those things in my shopping basket and going towards the cashier's desk I notice that I only have 75€ in my wallet. I ask the cashier (in English of course. Before this I was talking in German the whole time) if he was able to change 15€ into US$. He says that this was no problem. However I think that 15€ are not enough so I give him another 10€ that he should change into US$ as well. For some reason I tell him how many US$ I get and that he still needs to scan the things in my shopping basket. He replies: "Oh calm down. I'm good at math". I then reply "How am I supposed to know? I just wanted to make sure that you do everything correctly.". It takes him quite a while to do all those things which is why quite a long queue builds up.
      However I soon leave the store with my friend and some really luxurious cars are driving by. We note that there must be some VIPs in those cars. We decide to leave our car where it is and go for a walk towards the city centre.
      The town is really pretty and for some reason I am extremly happy and totally delighted. Everything I see makes me happy. That is probably the case because I absolutely adore travelling. We cross a few streets, turn right and find my mum, a good friend of mine and her mum walking on the pavement. I don't question how they got there; instead I'm happy to meet them and we stroll along the streets towards the city centre where we can see skyscrapers in the distance (quite strange for a small town) as the dream fades away and I wake up at 5:55am 5minutes before my alarm is supposed to go off.
      __________________________________________________ ______________

      All in all, quite a long, extremly vivid and lovely dream. I can even remember some scents and many sounds (which not so usual in my dreams since the sounds are always a bit off or the background noise is missing). Nothing exciting or crazy happened, but however I am still very happy with this dream as I really enjoyed its atmosphere.

      I was chatting with SilentEternity on Skype, about spiral knights and some jokes, at one point he was asking "Am i always being like that?" or something along this line.

      Dream 2(fragments)

      I was watching some let's play of some third person shooter, the action was happening in some desert.

      Dream 3(fragments):

      I wake up and i get confused since the body i feel is different from what i see, it takes a bit of time for me to get up and i look at hands, i notice they are weird but dream fades out before i realize it.

      Dream 4(fragments):

      There was some scene in grassland, knight in white armor and knight in black armor were talking, they realized during the talk that they are not really what they are, then they connected their hands, and in a very bright, almost blinding, glow, they turned into dragons.

      by , 08-20-2013 at 02:51 PM
      Dream 1(Fragment) : [COLOR="#800080"]I was at the entrance of my high-school with a lot of people and there was this guy from my class who was trying to draw a pink flower.[/COLOR]

      Dream 2 :[COLOR="#800080"]I remember It was night and my mom wasn't home so I called her to come home because tomorrow I have school. She said she won't come home and that I should probably not go to school tomorrow. I said to myself : Oh god,But It's the 3rd day of school. I also said to myself that I should probably not learn at that Romanian language test that I'll have the next day.(My sister was in the house too) I go to sleep and think that if my mom is not home nobody can wake me up now (wat).I wake up at exactly 4:35 am and I say to myself : Whew,I wonder how I woke up that early,Maybe I should go to school,but I didn't learned for that test!(I was like...fighting with myself to go or not to go to school)(Then I get some of my notebooks and start learning biology from them.) I wake up my sister,and in the end I go to school.I get in the class and it was apparently a break.I laugh and have fun with my classmates and then I go outside the class and my guy classmate comes to me with 2 other girls and asks me if I remember that time when I saw him getting punched in the face with the door(Suddenly I see a memory of me looking at him getting punched in a face by a door) I say yeah and then a girl comes and says that my sister has a mouse,I'm like : Yeah she has a mouse,So? then that girl suddenly slaps me and she says that the mouse is the reason why he got punched in the face by that door. (-_-)' .Then a lot of people from all the classes comes and stares. I do nothing and listen to her while she's yelling at me then I get angry and I started a fight with her and I grabbed her by the leg and then throw her away while saying: You freaking skeleton! (I think by that I meant that she was reaaaally slim). I then go in the class and try to learn for that test.Suddenly the teacher comes and then the biology class starts.I go to the blackboard and I look at this guy and suddenly I start to laugh then he starts to laugh too. It rings and the teacher leaves and I ask my classmate if she can help me with the test (Like cheating) She says yes and I get really happy and that's pretty much all I remember. [/COLOR]

      Dream 3 : [COLOR="#800080"]I remember running out of school with a girl I don't know and there are 2 guys with snowballs in their hands (It wasn't even snowing,It was a sunny day) and then they say: Hurry! (They looked really impatient) I run with that girl hoping they won't throw the snowball at us.Then the guy from the right(Had a black shirt and kinda looked like the DC) throws the snowball at my butt and I stop running and look back with a what the fuck face.[/COLOR]

      Dream 4 : [COLOR="#800080"]I was in my high-school yard playing basketball with my ex-bestfriend and my old friend and then suddenly my ex-bestfriend throws the ball far away while I do something with my old friend(I don't remember what) and we suddenly hear a loud BOOM.I wonder what that sound was so I go to the gate and realize there's a big hole in it so I look around and see a car without it's door.I hope that there is no dog around and I try to walk through the hole when suddenly I see a black dog that is barking at me and I try to run but I end up climbing on a rock and calming the dog down. I remember I went back to the yard and told my ex-bestfriend about it and she says it wasn't her fault but it was mine.I start to argue with her and then the dream suddenly skips in my house and I am in my bed when I suddenly hear the intercom and I try to wake up my grandmother that was in a bed near me and then she walks to the intercom(She couldn't walk well so me and my mom helped her) I somehow believed she was the one who threw the ball at the car but then I go to the intercom too and there was a guy at the end of it and he keeps yelling and saying it was my fault.I try to explain that It's not my fault and that it was my ex-bestfriend's fault. [/COLOR]

      Dream 5 (Fragment) : [COLOR="#800080"]I was outside my school yard with 2 boys and one of the guy was on the school's fence and one of them was near me and it suddenly starts to rain and I tell the guys to run because it starts to rain.They don't agree and then it started to hail with big balls of ice.I yell at them to get inside and they don't want to.I have the feeling I stayed there only because I liked one of the guy and I didn't wanted to leave him(He also had a black shirt and kinda looked like the DC).[/COLOR]

      Dream 6 (Fragment I guess) :[COLOR="#800080"]It's night outside and I'm in my bed with DC and we snuggle.I suddenly turn my back at him and he tries to rest his arm on my waist but I grabbed his hand and said no then he got really angry and walked to the kitchen. He comes back and asks me if I'm ready to get warm :| .[/COLOR]

      Another fragment: [COLOR="#800080"]I remember running in the school yard for some reason.[/COLOR]

      And other fragment <.< : [COLOR="#800080"]I remember doing a dance(Troublemaker) with DC[/COLOR]

      And another one : [COLOR="#800080"]I dreamt I was cleaning my parrot's cage.[/COLOR]

    15. Two Choices and Banana Bank Robbery (8/20/13)

      by , 08-20-2013 at 02:31 PM (INeverWakeUp's Super Dream Journal)
      I dream I'm at this girl's house(though it highly resembles someone else's house who I know). She is very sick and it would appear her younger sister can't take care of her. Now this girl IRL is literally like the nicest girl I know....but this dream has a twist. So I notice how sick she has become. Her voice is very weak, she's pale, and she can't even walk anymore. So I decide I should help her out.
      "Is there anything I can get for you?" I ask. She says yes and mentions a special type of medicine and points across the kitchen to some cabinets. This is where she starts to turn. I make my way over and begin searching. She didn't give me a specific cabinet to search. Now she appears to be getting frustrated with me and begins to snap at me. She's trying to direct me to the right cabinet but I can't hear her. She's angry enough now so I really don't want to tell her to speak up.
      "Geez I should just get it myself!!!" she snaps. I feel really frustrated now as I finally find the medicine she demands. I bring it to her and then leave her, not wanting to stay around any longer. The dream soon fades...now either I woke up or transitioned I don't remember...

      I now dream I am somewhere I can't recall but I'm hanging out with my church friends. We're all having a good time partying and whatnot, and everything seems normal. Now, things take a twists, and my brain decides to toy with me. Two girls I know come up to me and both admit they like me. I stand there now in shock, and wonder what I'm going to say.
      "Let me get back to you on that..." I say. I then quickly flee the scene and try to find one of my guy friends. I find my friend Joey, who's talking to our friend Hannah in private, but it doesn't seem all that private. I now ask my friend for some advice and he tells me I should go with the girl I like more. The thing is though IRL that'd be a REALLY hard decision. Both of them are nice, good looking, spirited, spiritual...it'd be a mess!!! I finally have my decision in mind, as I go to "sleep" for the night. I "awake" and I hear my friends and music. I look around my room and discover a portal on my floor. I try entering, but it puts me back in bed a few times, then sometimes everything goes black when I jump in. Finally I make it in, and see everyone in swimming wear(trunks, bikinis, etc.) in a solid two or three feet of water dancing with dance lights and music. Now I'd actually be up for trying that in real life. Now things get awkward when the two girls come up to me in their swimsuits and ask if I've made a decision yet. I ask for a minute before being tackled by another girl I know into the water. I finally break free and resurface. The two girls are waiting patiently and I wait out as long as possible. But right there and then I
      become lucid! Well time to get out of here! As I begin to leave my friend Matt stops me.
      "Aren't you going to tell them who you like better?" he asks. I now respond with a witty reply.
      "I'll just tell them in real life," I say, walking off. My friend looks absolutely dumbstruck now, with no way of comprehending that. I now make my way towards the exit door and remember I have to do the TOTM!!! I try to remember them, but can only remember one of them. I go over to some DCs and see my friend Jonathan.
      "What's up man?" he says.
      "Hey, what's the meaning of life?" I ask. He now responds but I don't hear his reply too well.
      "What?" I ask.
      "Poo." he says, giggling. I now walk away, dumbstruck as Matt was and head to the exit door. I now remember my other task, which is a personal one--rob a bank using only a banana. The exit door has a fully dressed man standing in the water waiting. As I walk up to the door he speaks.
      "This is a bank," he says, gesturing to the door. I acknowledge him and walk inside. I now pull a ripe yellow banana from my pocket and lift it up.
      "THIS IS A HOLDUP! EVERYONE ON THE GROUND!" I shout. No one moves however. I see a security guard pull out a real gun now and I point the fruit at him menacingly.
      "Drop the gun or I'll blow your fucking brains out!!!" I snap. The officer now outs his weapon down and everyone drops to the floor. A man answers the phone, and I make him hang up, threatening him with my banana. I now walk around and explain.
      "Now, I know this make look like an ordinary banana," I begin. "But this, is in fact, a very lethal weapon!!!"
      And then I awake. I am upset I didn't finish the robbery, but at least it was working. And I completed the TOTM. Then I wallow in silence when I realize the whole choosing a girl thing was a figment of my imagination. Damn you brain!!!
