    1. 8-3-2013 Cosplay and Shinobu

      by , 08-03-2013 at 03:10 PM (Subjects' Dream Journal)
      This is going to be a short summarized log, i don't feel like typing today.

      Last night, i got to cosplay as spike from cowboy bebop, and i have to admit, i looked sooooo good. But then i messed up the hair and the charm went away. I also met Shinobu from the -monogatari series, the vampire girl was pretty attractive until she turned herself into an old lady.

    2. 3rd Aug 2013 Flight, Weird fish, Going through windows

      Dream recall from today's naps.

      Dream 1:

      I am at home, doing something on PC, then i am interrupted by someone questioning about my nap and look at the time, it is 1:00 or close to that, but i already went to nap at 2:00, i start feeling the dream too, so i am dreaming. Dream is slightly unstable, i go to balcony and jump out, i feel my wings and start flying around, the place looks mostly similar to waking life, but to the left there are some buildings that don't present IWL. I end up flying around for a few minutes, getting in some wind currents a couple of times, looking around and trying transformation. I also notice that sky is being like background texture rather than actual sky, weird, haha. Then dream fades as i wake up moving around the room in chair, i get confused and then wake up properly.

      Dream 2:

      I am on the bed in some grey-ish room and i think that's my room, there's some aquarium with fishes right above doorway, it's weird, i start reading some magazine and then look at aquarium again, now there's pretty big and really weird fish of green-yellow color, and it has 4 big frog-like eyes. I end up multitasking between reading and watching it, at first it just stays in one place, but then it slowly starts phasing through aquarium glass. Then it teleports to the left from me, onto the wall, and then onto my head, everything goes dark. I feel that i am dreaming and vision fades back in and room is shaking for a bit, also it is darker now and... there's same DC that attacked me few lucids back, i say something to him and give him "Don't even think about doing it again" look and he gets scared and sulks in corner, then says something about what i am doing not being a good idea. I go to window and look outside, i am apparently in some kind of skyscraper building. Then dream fades out.
      I wake up but in different room of my home, the one with chandelier. I get up and let out a bit of roar, go on all four and jump through window, ending up partially phasing through it, i feel wings and try to fly through, but i get stuck for a bit, then as i phase through i end up falling onto the floor of some different room. Brown walls, bookshelves, green/red carpet and some small lights. A bit confused, i jump and fly through window again, this time ending up outside. It looks like it's autumn, since all trees have yellow/reddish leaves, and also there's really huge fence. I try to fly over it but dream fades out and i wake up twice.
    3. 8-3-13 The Play (Non-Lucid)

      by , 08-03-2013 at 02:05 PM
      I Had a dream that I was writing a script in the morning for a play that I had to perform in school with a buddy that was due that day. Even though the bus picks me up at 6:30, I remember looking at the time and it being later (6:48) because not only was I running late, but so was my mother. Once I got to class, and once I had to perform, I remember that it was in my backyard and the audience where hot girls that were grown up from my old old school. I didn't regonize them because I have not been to that school for more than 5 years, but they sure did like the play. The play was short and had lines that were short. My partner who might of been Kenny was replaced my the teacher because he could not read the script due to my handwriting being so bad (Go figure) who was saying comments through out the play such as "Very Weak". But, at the end, I remember them cheering (And not Sarcastically) about the play. I remember one girl saying that she wanted to take me home or something. As I walked inside to fix my hair, (took off the mask when it ended which was outside) I was talking to Ross and I remember telling him that I don't know any of those girls.

    5. 30-Day Challenge: Day 27 - Success!

      by , 08-03-2013 at 11:31 AM (Katsuno's Awesome Ninja Tales!)
      Sorry for the late entry, I took a 3-Day break because life was really busy.
      I didn't stop refining my technique, though.
      So far I found out that to get lucid I need at least those two things:

      -8 hours of sleep
      -Waking up in the night naturally

      This is my entry from yesterday night, didn't have time to write it because I wasn't home all day.

      1st: I dreamed about buying my own house in some weird city. The house was really beautiful, it looked really small from the outside but once I walked inside it was much bigger (dream logic ftw). For some reason right after I've seen every room there was a huge crowd of people in front of my house. There was a riot and they wanted to fight me.
      I immediately thought to myself "Wow, my dream is epic!" and got lucid. I decided not to really interfere this time and just let the dream happen. Some weird guy with a hat appeared in my room. He looked like Twisted Fate from LoL and he also had playing cards. He wanted to play poker with me. I sat on the table. I didn't do ADA or any RC's all the time so I lost lucidity at some point. The dream got even more weird from here on.
      The window in the second floor bursted. Some kind of Chimerae monster appeared. It was covered in flames and tried to attack me. Suddenly another Chimerae appeared but this one was covered in ice. They both attacked me but I evaded them and tried to beat them somehow. At this point the dream changed and I was now being told the reason for this weird dream.
      Apparently I was some kind of Doctor (Doctor Who?) and all those creatures are from different dimensions and centuries. Weird...
      I woke up.

      Interpretation: I always wanted my own house (wish), the card guy was from LoL and those creatures reminded me of a hero from HoN. I actually never watched "Doctor Who?" but my sister always tells me about the show.

      2nd: My recall from this dream is almost completely gone. I just know that I did parkour with another guy and got lucid for a few seconds.

      Had another fragment about me playing some kind of game where I had to destroy my car as fast as possible.

      Somehow my lucidity was really low that night, probably due to tiredness and exhaustion from work.

    7. Recall = 5 % -.-

      by , 08-03-2013 at 08:47 AM
      I don't recall much

      I coordinated a marathon or something, it started in an hotel.
      After that I coordinated a school play, it was a mix of Hamlet and the Holy Grail (Monty Python). It was really strange, there was one as King Arthur who wondered if he should become King of Britain or not (To be king or not to be king, that's the question)

    8. The meaning of life?

      by , 08-03-2013 at 08:02 AM
      Dream, Lucid, Comment

      We (my family and I) were in a house that wasn't ours. It was more like a mansion, actually. Everyone was busy exploring the place and playing with stuff. My mom brought me this weird item that supposedly was an ear bud; the part that was supposed to go in your ear was a flat electronic chip. "Take it", she insisted, "it'll help you." I wasn't sure how, exactly, it was supposed to help me, but I took it from her and put it in my ear, and suddenly the dream became way more vivid. I thought to do a reality check, but instead of counting my fingers, I counted my toes.
      I realized it was a dream even before counting; my foot looked normal (five toes, by the looks of it), except for those two extra thumb-like toes that were sticking out of the side. Next thing I know, I was sitting in my living room, along with my sister. I tried to remember what the ToTM was, and then asked her something along the lines of "what does life mean to you?" I was kinda hoping she would say 42. I'm not sure what she said, if she replied at all. What a bummer.
      The rest of the dream isn't very exciting to read, and I'm too lazy to type it. So yeah.

    9. Weapons

      by , 08-03-2013 at 07:02 AM
      Katara (from Avatar) and Mercer Frey (from Skyrim) are arguing. Mercer wants Katara to go on a mission, but she doesn't trust him. She stomps away angrily.

      The next day, Mercer visits her camp. He bribes her with a new weapon: The 250-damage battle-axe! "WOW!" She says. " I've always wanted to see one of those things!"

      The Skyrim inventory pops into my vision, and the battle-axe appears in my hand. I run around flailing the weapon randomly.

    10. Artist Without A Roof

      by , 08-03-2013 at 05:56 AM (A World In My Head!!)
      August 2, 2013

      recap: ny, train ride, waiting for mom, phone call, night time, baggage, arrive in morning, austin, art show in industrial area, amazing paintings, paint door, no where to sleep, freaking out, call D, no help, call mom, no help, hyperventilate

      notes: night before my cycle, didnt sleep well

      Artist Without a Roof
      Its a late night some where in NY, I'm talking to mom on the cell phone. She promises she'll take a flight and meet me soon, but she can't stay. She'll be flying back the same day. As we talk about the travel arrangements I'm trying to make sense of it. The time frames, the location, doesnt make any sense.

      As mom instructed, I get ready to take the train for the next city - Austin, TX. In the dream NY and Austin were sister cities, sitting next to each other. At first I decided to leave my bags behind and that I'll pick them up after mom gets here. Wait, that literally makes no sense. Then I'll have to do two trips, waste time, waste money and who would watch over my bags?

      Nevermind, I grab my bags and hop on the train. Its filled with other excited artists. We arrive at our destination, its magically day time.

      A lady shows me around the austin gallery. It's a bunch of portables and other industrial type spaces turned into on-the-spot galleries. She showed me which one was mine. Just this ugly white metal building. But when she opens the door my heart skips a beat. It's filled with my paintings and 'new' paintings I've yet to make.

      My own gallery space...My own gallery space..It was perfect! Just perfect! I literally broke into tears!

      She quickly reminds me that the opening is tomorrow and that I'm running out of time to paint my door..Paint my door? I look around and see that all the other artists have graffiti'd their doors. !! I need to paint my door too!

      But wait, I have no paint supplies? I gotta go to the store. But wait, I don't have a car? No wait, I don't even have money?

      Then it dawns on me, I don't even have a hotel room yet!! Think think think. I call up D. At first the conversation was nice. 'D, were near each other! Come see my gallery tomorrow!'. D is further north than NY - but I'm in austin. The location weirdness starts to confuse me. Either way D sounds happy and agrees to see my gallery.

      I change the subject 'I need a place to stay tonight. I'm near your parents right? Can I stay there tonight?' The phone goes silent. I start to beg 'I don't have a hotel room or any money, its just one night!'. The phone is still silent. I take a look. Either D hung up on me or the phone cut off.

      What do I do? What do I do?

      I call up mom, but she's not answering. I keep trying, the phone isn't going through. Now it feels like my whole world is falling apart. My door isn't painted. I'm running out of time. I dont know any of these artists! I don't have a place to stay tonight! What will happen? What will happen? If I go to a motel, my God I could be raped!

      I start to hyperventilate - and then I wake up. I felt miserable for hours.

      After thoughts:
      a lot of meaning in this dream considering the artsy events going on in my life now. The joy of the gallery space, the lack of a painted door (advertising) and all that lack of security and poor artist syndrome - yeah im feeling it

    12. Huge Fishes

      by , 08-03-2013 at 12:24 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I was running from someone or some people. I was in our house back in our hometown.

      Underground. I was watching a small tribe on a boat in an underground river under a house. The leader was female. They got lost chasing someone (me?). They redirected the boat, but didn't realize it was headed out to the sea and not back inside. Once they were on the sea, there was a huge open mouth out of the water. A big fish was sucked or simply jumped into it. They/We decided to avoid it. Then we had to hurry away from other huge water species.

      We ended up in a wet market with all kinds of fishes. Some of them huge.
    13. Naked Boat

      by , 08-03-2013 at 12:07 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      August 2, 2013

      I was in a mall. I was naked with some people. We were holding something up with our hands raised up. I think it was a boat. Like a dragon boat. We were in one line. A guy behind me tried to push his crotch behind me. I resented that and pushed him away. He might have felt my annoyance and left. We continued with the 'parade.'

      I was in school or a place where we were watching a film. I went to the comfort room. Some guys were naked. I had to take a leak but the urinals were removed. Yellowish light. I had to pee on the floor in the corner. I went out and realized I can barely see. I left my glasses in the comfort room, so I went back and took it. When I returned to my seat, I realized that my glasses were there as well. I 'combined' them by hiding them from sight and then showing them again as one.

      #205 - 5:32AM - WILD?

      The cats wake me up making noise. I have a lot of FA's and confusion. At one point I think a cat is in our bed. I pick her up and throw her out but I leave the door open. Another time I wake up and try see the time but the alarm clock is blurry. I think I might be dreaming but I lose it. Another time I start to DJ something but by the look and feel of it, I know it is a FA. I type the words I am dreaming on it but the image fades away. Somehing else happens at some point with strong HI and I realize its all fake and doesn't matter. I think at some point I wake up for real and do breathing meditation.

      My body feels different now and I know it's the dream state. I get vibrations and I try to get up several times but I am blind and I end up back in bed. I wait for a moment and just note the sound and feel of it all. I try to roll but it feels real. I think I must be waking now but realize my arms have gone into an impossible position. I try to get up and am only partially blind now. I see the alarm clock on the floor and it clearly says 11:03. I lose sight again and only see dim light. I try to see my hands but it wont form.

      I pause now and quit trying so hard. I say, "CLARITY NOW!" and clap my hands. Nothing happens. Then for some reason I say a bunch of Japanese and I sound like that silly Anime soccer game I have on the Wii. I remember something NyxCC said about enjoying the SP and singing a tune. I start to beatbox and want to hear Right On Time by Skrillex. I sound pretty good for someone who has no idea how to beatbox in waking life. Suddenly I can see clearly and I begin to hear some music with a good beat but it is not the song that I wanted. I turn to the mirror and begin to dance. I can see that I am moving incredibly fast and want to see my full body. At that thought the mirror extends to the floor and I can see that I am wearing my performance workout clothes. I think I want to try to C-Walk but my feet are going crazy and are a blur. I try to concentrate on the moves and slow it down. To my amusement I see I am wearing an old fashioned womens high heal on my left foot. I decide I would rather ignore this and just dance randomly. At some point the music morphs into a pop song with a woman singing. I say, "Turn that shit up!". It seems like the sound is coming from a small radio mounted on the wall and when I turn the dial up the sound moves to over by the mirror. The song becomes very realistic and believable but the only lyrics I can remember is "Never wear you out... Never wear you down" (It seems like it sounds like it could be a real song but I can't seem to find it online.) Her voice rings out loud clear and though it's not my choice of music, I just go with it. As she repeats the phrase several times I begin to sing along very loudly.
      At that point one of the cats starts batting something around in the living room and the noise wakes me up. Bitch.

    15. Short one and Senseless FA

      by , 08-02-2013 at 11:22 PM (Streaming My Utopia)
      DILD - 01/08/2013

      I was in my bed and I noticed there were some footprints on the ceiling which I supposedly got there (not sure how) and there was a pair of hands coming off the wall just by the side of my bed. I thought that was weird, I inspected them and it turns out they were fake plastic hands. That was enough for me, no need for RC, I was lucid. As a consequence of the late morning hour I had this dream in, there was some noise coming through my bedroom which in turn manifested as someone fixing something in the building, the people working on it were being somewhat assholes previously.

      I stabilized and decided I wanted to go to my old place and visit my neighbour, I've had a childhood crush on her for some years and I made it a personal LD goal of mine to go "take her on a date".

      The way I thought about going there was to go through my bedroom door and expect to come out in my old building, it didn't work out that way, I was still in a slightly different version of my home. I said screw it and the first thought that came to my mind was to somehow go to the train station down the street and go from there, I thought it wouldn't be hard to pull off. So I phased through my window directly to the street and I rushed down the ramp to the station. On the way I found one of those assholes that was making noise earlier, he was on top of a tallish structure and I decided to mess with him. I half flew half climbed another tall structure in front of his and when I got there I asked "You still wanna be an asshole? We can have some fun." He looked intimitaded and awestruck so I just let him go and continued down the street.

      When I got to the station it was all different and I couldn't find my way to where I was supposed to go. I insisted and continued on to the place where the right WL paths would be and expected them to appear, it worked for some time but then it didn't. The dream was unstable and I had to stabilize more than once to keep it going, it was probably due to being in the later REM cycles and all the noise around me. At some point I unevitably
      woke up without achieving anything. I thought about DEILD and I remained still but then I thought it wouldn't be worth risking forgetting the dream and going in with low chances of a stable LD.

      FA - 02-08-2013

      I was in my bed and I did a nose pinch RC which turned out positive, I tried to picture a dream scenario but didn't wait long and as I couldn't I tried to move my arm and I managed. My mistake was thinking that I moved my real arm and had woken up which later on I would find I didn't.

      ^ Never again... I just learned to move my ass and never back down when I get a RC working. Damn me.
