    1. More bits and pieces

      by , 03-09-2012 at 02:49 PM (Just Another Dream Journal)
      I don't know when I went to bed last night. I forgot to write it down. It was just after midnight though- I remember now because of Farmville lol. I took 2 allergy pills and fell right to sleep. But I tossed and turned all freagin night.

      I remember dreaming about swinging and twirling from some poles at a park. They might have been poles from a swing set/monkey bars combo. I was having great fun until I met a wasp at the last pole. Someone shouted a warning but I had already seen it. I shooed it but then it chased me lol
      I then realized I had just had surgery and wondered if I should be exerting myself so much so soon. I couldn't remember anything about the surgery though so I asked someone. It had been brain surgery. A circular piece of my skull had been removed and I was told if I pushed on the roof of my mouth hard enough, that the bone (which had been replaced afterward) would pop out.

      At some point, I dreamed I still had my bottom teeth, except thin metal rods were holding them in place. The rods irritated me so I pulled a couple of them out.
      At some other point, I dreamed I had doctors order to eat only a clear diet. As soon as I heard that, I scarfed down 2 chocolate covered marshmallow eggs

      I dreamed some building was on fire or something and I followed the cries of a little kid. I saw her from a distance and told her everything was going to be okay, but then a lady appeared out of nowhere and carried the girl to safety. I felt a little dejected at losing a chance to be someone's hero, but I shrugged it off and made my way back down some external stairs.

      In another dream I was with my parents and some other people. I sold 2 cigarettes to a couple of kids for 50 cents each but two other adults caught me. One of them was actually the person who told the girls they needed to pay me. They made a comment about not buying pot from him. Another woman didn't say anything but it was clear she would if the kids were caught.
      My youngest daughter kept harassing me, asking if I mailed an order for some brownies. I kept telling her I had (but I actually hadn't). Someone else slipped me $50. for something.
      Then entered my mom, extremely upset, claiming she has narrowed down her search for my dad's harlot.
      There was more to that dream, but I've forgotten it.

      I was sitting in a chair in one snippet when I felt an insect crawling on my arm. I swatted it, then feared it was a wasp. It was actually a roach (which I loathe) and I pulverized it into goo.

      In yet another dream, I was walking through a neighborhood that was supposed to be one in Florida where my ex lived. It actually looked like a local neighborhood I drive through almost daily. I was trying to convince myself that some disaster had come about and I was psyching myself out, worried I'd find the parents of my ex dead in their home. I wouldn't check on them, but kept walking. I eventually ran into some other people.

      In another snippet, I was visiting a couple of elderly ladies. They had four cats and one of them had a stub for a tail. I picked her up right away and said she reminded me a lot of Rogue (my favorite cat who ran away several years ago). They wanted me to take her because if not, the cat had to go to the pound. But I set the cat down and sadly told them I lived in another state and it wouldn't be possible because my mom was highly allergic.

      That's all I recall

    2. Adventure!

      by , 03-09-2012 at 01:05 PM
      I'm in a small village, in a small house with my mum and my sister (which is odd, considering I don't have a sister.) I left to go to the next few villages for some reason, I don't remember what. Along the way, I met somebody who was going with me and we needed to go through a building. Some kids had blocked the way through. So we waited. Eventually, the kids had to escape as they trapped themselves in. Then I was watching in 3rd person, like a security camera watching them escape from the back.

      We went through and we finally arrived at a city, where I casually looked up in the sky and saw a plane. It wasn't a normal plane though. It was on a collision course with the ground ^_^ It crashed and there was a massive BOOM. I hurried home. Somehow my sister got injured. I left the room that we both were sleeping in and it turned into my house today, in the city I live in. my neighbors knocked on the door. My mum replied that we had just fixed my sisters Nintendo DS.

    3. Attempt 9: VILD

      by , 03-09-2012 at 07:49 AM (Choi's Journey of the Conscious Mind)
      Attempt 9:

      I could not stay aware this night either.. :/ I will keep doing this until succeed though.

      But I did got lucid anyway atleast semi-lucid:

      I were inside a school and helped some girl with a computer. I know... but I am not a nerd! Ok maybe a little..
      When that dream changed I woke up and fell asleep immediatelly and were in a vivid daydream.
      I looked around and was now lucid of a vivid thought of a mall, and suddenly I got eyecontact with a person and realised that it was a dream. I started to walk and was amazed over how real it felt, even if it this time didn't felt competely real.
      I walked out from the mall and it was dark outside, I saw a dark figure moving in the distance. I thought to myself whatever I am not scared! I am going to face it! I saw a man with a long dark coat staring at me and he leaned in and kissed me! I got shocked and I turned that man into a beautiful girl instead. Puh... '
      I then saw my friend and got distracted. I started to think that he somehow was my real friend dreaming.
      I tried to convince him that he was dreaming and when he realised that he just run away :(
      We had a codeword though it was Mila Kunis and Italia, but when I woke up I realised that I did not knew who he was...
      Then I walked inside a buidling and started to play a videogame, some motorcycle game.
      I was not lucid anymore, but I still behaved like I was lucid and I went to a window and tried to melt the snow on the roof with my eyes. Instead my eyes started to heat up and hurt. Lol can't imagine how it would be like to be superman.
      Then I had some other dream about me trying to follow a bus with my bike, and then I woke up.

      I have to remember my plan of action in my dreams... Then they might have lasted longer.

    4. Captain's daughter

      by , 03-09-2012 at 07:29 AM
      Captain's Daughter
      Recall: 4/10
      Sleep: Good
      Sleep Position: Unknown
      I'm in space, ships everywhere, and we humans are having diplomatic problems with a race of aliens we've encountered.

      The captain of the alien's ship has a daughter, and we hit it off. I board their ship and get cozy with this space babe. Although I wonder if she's just using me for cigarettes, which she seems to be very fond of. She smokes them completely in one drag. I notice odd filter lengths which almost makes me lucid, but i'm more focused on the space babe.

      Then I see the captain looking at me getting close to his daughter and think "uh oh". He calls me over, and I ask what he's going to do about this diplomatic situation. I think I may have blown it by hitting on his daughter, but he says to me "let's share a cigarette". I give him one and he too puff the entire thing in one drag.

      That smoke was symbolic, and I know our two races will be at peace and cooperate.

      Done here, we leave the ship. The door opens and their ship is against a large meteor with a human base built on it. I'm worried about jumping out into space without a suit, but the captain and his daughter do, so I follow, preparing to hold my breath. I'm surprised to find that i can breath, although the air is thin.

    5. Small Fragment

      by , 03-09-2012 at 06:39 AM
      Last night's fragment seemed pretty vivid, even though I can't recall much in terms of length.

      I was in some trashy looking part of some fictional town just looking around. In front of a trailer, garbage and rusting metal lay strewn across the narrow entrance/yard. Pieces of corrugated metal bolted to wooden posts were used as fencing. I had a small flashlight which I decided to turn on. The light it gave off had a faint green hue to it and was dim as I pointed it around the ground. As I continued to move around the heaps of scrap metal, the dim light began to flicker. Whether this was because my brain couldn't handle shining a light at multiple objects, or simply because it had low batteries, I can't tell. In the dream however, I figured the batteries were low on it.

      As I made my way to the entrance/exit, I made a left on a concrete path. Strangely enough, I found that everything was located atop a larger than possible rooftop terrace. At the 'end' of the path, there were a couple tables at opposite sides that overlooked a huge, orange-lit, city. On one table, I found a destroyed plastic device, and sitting at the opposite table were two people. It was an older looking man, and a girl who looked in her teens. He was attempting to explain the device to her, but she kept calling it evil. From what I can recall, the device was supposed to make the user lucid in their dreams. The girl at this point was spouting insane statements about how she strongly detested lucid dreaming or something to that effect. There was also a change in time, for no longer was it night, it was now at dawn and the sky was a muted blue color. Before the dream ended, I had wanted to put the device on to see if it still worked, but go figure, my alarm wakes me up. :\

      Despite the dream lasting for only a few minutes, I was at least able to recall a bunch of detail about it. I know there is more to the beginning rather than just be abruptly exploring the trailer park, but I just can't seem to remember it. I think I should write down any dreams I remember after I wake up even if it's early in the morning. Happy dreaming everyone!

    6. Highly lucid trying different things - flying to the stars

      by , 03-09-2012 at 05:03 AM (Tomas's DJ - "Exploration of the inner Self")
      (I wake up after some 4 hours of sleep, stay up for almost an hour and pop in Galantamine and Choline.... then just lay down in bed, not moving a hair... waiting while listening to binaural tones... I am pretty pumped up from the "wake up in your dream" seminar....)

      Suddenly, I feel vibration wave going from my head to my chest.... and another one... somehow I understand what is going on.. and I just continue being still....

      I wake up in bed in my grandmother's house, still attempting to fall asleep, not realising that it is a dream already. Then I do the "pull my finger" reality check that I was shown at the seminar. And at one point my finger stretches!! However, I am struggling to get up.

      Then Karim enters the room, and he keep interrupting me. Next a small Colombian girl comes in, and I start to mess around with her a bit, taking off her top. Then I realise it is a dream, looking at my hands and finding my index fingers having a funny branch mini finger!!

      It is a very high level of lucidity (4) as I remember so many things I want to do that I read about or heard of at the seminar. I am at the garden behind our house in Czech now. I want to fly different methods of flying. I want to try everything. I star waving my arms and it takes me up a little bit. Then I start kicking my legs, and I can feel much better acceleration, but its still very tough, and I think to myself "this is stupid, there must be a better way." So I just spread my arms and intend to fly, lean forward as I learned at the seminar... ... and to my surprise it works.... Then I just glide around over the top of the roofs and trees. At one point, I can see the roofs and antennas around our house.... gliding on them black and white trees. As I fly over the trees I can see a storm at the distance, I want to fly through, but I avoid it at the end. then I try to fly to the stars, but it is little boring as it seems like I am being still, since there are no objects around..... suddenly I notice red dots crossing the sky in different directions. I think to myself it must be satellites. I decide to fly back landing at our garden again.

      I want to try door teleportation too. There is a family of 3-4 having a barbecue at our garden. I don't wonder about it, and sneak around them to the garage. It has nice white door. I walk through, but it is just dark in there (as I did not intend anything behind). I think, damn this doesn't work, so I walk back outside. Now there is a bench a bunch of teenagers, some of them girls. I have dirty thoughts again, but then I remember to try press ups. So I walk away a bit and start doing press ups. I goes tough, but i am not getting tired. Suddenly some of them teenagers start pressing on my back... so I stop.

      Then I feel my hand is hurting. I know it is in reality as I remember falling asleep and having duvet held in that hand. I am thinking how to move my arm without waking up. Strangely I manage to merge these realities and a fix my arm to a better position.

      Now, I am worried that it is too late and that I will not hear my alarm! I am running around trying to find working clock and my phone.... then I force myself up as I don't want to be late... waking up at 6:12 when my alarm is set to 6:15!!!


      This was by far the most advanced and vivid lucid dream.

    7. Sand Cloud and Reptile Person

      by , 03-09-2012 at 02:50 AM
      Dream One Non-Lucid
      I was at my school's blacktop, talking to my friends. I look off into the distance and see a big red cloud heading to the school. The whistle blows for us to go back inside, so I stand up and walk to the 8th grade hall instead of the gym. I walk through the hallway until I find a window to see outside. The cloud that I saw was almost in front of the window, but what was keeping it away was that it turned into sand when it came too close. I walked back outside to see this happening clearer, and watched the sand fall out of the air. This is what the whole dream was, but it was very long.

      Also, I had another dream about the same cloud at the school, but it was in a different place. I will not post it though

      Dream Two Non-Lucid
      I was walking up the road beside of my house with a cat. I was thinking to myself, and sometimes looking at the cat to see if it was still walking with me. Suddenly a green reptile/human thing walked out onto the road. The cat that was beside me ran to it to examine it for that I felt that it had bad intentions. I watched the cat carefully to make sure nothing happened to it, but I was too far away when the reptile cut the cat's head off with his spikes on his tail. (Dream Skip) I am now in a bus with Joel, the reptile person (Who's human side is a friend from school named Kaleb), and I. We were all talking casually, as if nothing happened. I can't remember what we were talking about, but every time Joel or I would disagree, he would bring up the spikes on his tail as if threatening to kill us. I wasn't scared by this (I seem never to be scared in my dreams ) and I could tell that Joel wasn't either. This was unusual for him so I looked at him, curious. I saw that he had a switch that turned on and off his pain. The switch was on off, and for some reason I switched it on. Next thing I know, Kaleb lashed his tail at Joel and killed him. I looked over to Kaleb, and saw that he had a gun in his mouth with a pun on it. I laughed at the pun, but then he killed himself. I then woke up.

    8. Did I share a dream with a girl I liked in the 4th grade? :/

      by , 03-09-2012 at 01:50 AM (Chronicles of the Cosmos)
      Well, geez. I can't believe I forgot to post this.

      When I was in the 4th grade, there was this cute girl that I liked but I didn't have the balls then to tell her that. Her name was Cassandra.

      Well, anyways, I had a dream about her one night and we were talking about stuff I can't remember but I said "if this isn't a dream, then I want you to knock on my desk two times tomorrow." And get this, the very next day we had to do group assignments and we got into groups of 4 I think.

      As I was doing my work, she literally knocked on my desk two times. I looked at her for a second and then went back to the work I was doing. I didn't know what to think but I dismissed the idea that we had actually shared the same dream immediately because I didn't believe that baloney. Well, she never said anything about it afterwards.

      It's been like, what, 20 years since then? I wonder if she still remembers that day. If I could find her like on Facebook or something, I could ask her. Hmm...

    9. The "Good" Specters

      by , 03-09-2012 at 01:25 AM (Chronicles of the Cosmos)
      I think I had this dream probably last year. I was at my mom's house. It's night and the yard light is on as well as some lights in other people's houses, however, it was still very dark outside. I've got the backdoor opened and I'm looking out into the yard and fields and there are specters standing in the fields, all around the house, and there's even one standing behind me but I feel that these guys are helping me.

      They were basically darker than black figures with red eyes and with a human form. They were about maybe 5 ft. tall. I thought that that was a really cool dream because I was being protected from any potential burglars and such and I had eyes all around the yard and in the fields.

      3/7/12

      DILD (false-WILD)

      TOTM

      notes: I spent the night at a buddy's place and left early in the morning. I came back home and slept for 2 hours, where this occurred.

      I FA in my room back in Chicago and try to WILD. I feel a numbness come over me and RC. I become lucid, but it is really dark and unstable. I don't get up and move too much, instead, I try to focus on the sensations around me. I realize that the tactile sensations are similar to the one my "real" body was feeling so I lose the dream and FA again.

      I try to WILD immediately again. The vibrations come on quickly. My body feels strange, kind of like numb and distorting. Now I stand up and RC. It is still really dark in my room. I start touching things like my bed in order to stabilize. As I leave my room, an old woman approaches me and starts talking. I can't tell if she is my grandma or not, either way, I can't hear what she is saying. I walk out the kitchen door into the night. There is another brunette girl who approaches me saying something. THe dream isn't fully stabilized so I ignore her.

      I try to make the sun rise, so it won't be so dark. I reach my hand out to the horizon and raise it slowly. This fails, no change in the lighting. I am still trying to make my environment brighter, and therefore, stabilize the dream. This guy is on a floating segway-looking device and is shooting some canisters at me. They fly through the air really slowly. I don't want to engage him, but I reluctantly respond. I jump onto the back of his flying thing and I am sitting on a cooler that is attached to the back. He says he is law enforcement and I have been missing my payments. I say some excuse and then fall off the back.

      I land in the grass in my backyard. There is a pile of snow. I put my hand into it, and it feels realistic, almost painfully cold. I remember the shadow TOTM and look around me. It is very dark, but I still have a shadow from the neighbor's lights. I watch it closely and expect it to make some aberrant movements. It starts shaking its arm even though I am not. Now that it is detached, I told it to attack the man from earlier. He had landed back on my porch and was standing by the door.

      My shadow swoops away and I run up the steps. My shadow is beating on the other guy's shadow, and his actual body is recoiling with the hits. I watch on and think it is cool that my shadow can attack real people too. I lose the dream soon after.

    11. Weird game

      by , 03-09-2012 at 12:14 AM
      I was in an unfamiliar classroom, mostly empty of furniture, with a girl I recognized. I think maybe she goes to my school or something, but I dunno her name or anything. I had gotten paid in that room in both cash and a cheque, and all the bills were laid on a table in rows. I gathered them up and put them in my backpack. I turned and tried to leave, but the girl started trying to fight me on this strange structure against the wall. I escaped and ran to the doorway, turning around to look back at her, and mouthed "woo" while pumping my fist in the air in slow motion. Then I saw my backpack still on the table in there, and it was laughing at me. I went back in to get it.

      Then I found myself in a video game. It was kind of scary, had a really long name and I was playing it with a group of people. We got out of the game for a moment. E was there and we were sitting on a couch, then the other people came over and sat on the couch with us, even though it was much too small. There was a cordless phone on a table in front of us that would show the name of the last game played, but the name of it was too long and had really weird spacing and messed up the screen, which was weird. Then we went back in the game. It took place in a dirty, damaged city with lots of wide-open spaces. At certain places, a red fog would appear when you approached, and a figure would come out of it. Then there would be text overlaid on the 'screen' (even though I was inside it) that looked like the text in Amnesia, saying something like, "Is this The Mix?" 'The Mix' was apparently the name of the creature and it was a demon, but it actually acted similar to an Amnesia monster as well, and you had to run away from it through the city. It was scary and I died from it a couple times.

      Then I was suddenly at my school. It seemed like I was almost thinking consciously at this point, which was weird. It felt like I was lucid but without knowing I was dreaming, so it was really confusing. I was trying to figure out what class I had next, and everything I looked at was morphing and twisting. I thought really hard about it and actually figured out my schedule correctly, but when I thought I was going into my English class, the door led to a sort of balcony inside a mall, and it was suddenly lunchtime. There was a decorative fountain right in the middle of it, and some people I know were sitting at tables around the edges eating lunch, though I only remember seeing NN. I was very confused. Without noticing, I started singing a song, then realized where I was and tried to play it off, trailing off and saying something like "yeahhh I'm just gonna stop now".
    12. Attempt 8: Peptalk!

      by , 03-08-2012 at 09:54 PM (Choi's Journey of the Conscious Mind)
      Now my mind is fully rested and I can hopefully stay aware on my ninth attempt.

      One thing I remembered that I did before my two successful attempts, is that I tried to convince myself that the attempt is so important, that failure almost is equal death. And while I was chatting with my friend I wrote how much I wanted to succeed and so on. I have to succeed, to fully prove that WILD without prior sleep is possible.

      So now for you DW I am going to bed. :D AND I AM GOING TO SUCCEED! :shadewink:

      Either way I will see you tomorrow.. :P

    13. March 8, 2012. Using the same playlist than on March 6, 2012.

      by , 03-08-2012 at 09:04 PM
      I am at a "Foster The People" concert (even though they are NOT on the playlist) with my brother and his friends (who were just DCs), and my dad. We are in the floor section of the concert, but everyone is sitting in chairs. It is a really boring crowd, everyone is just sitting quietly and listening. The music was not incredibly loud, but whenever I tried to speak, barley and noise came out. kept trying to say, "This crowd is so boring. This crowd sucks!" etc, but not much was coming out. Now I am right in front og the stage, even in front of the barrier. Now The Killers are performing. Brandon Flowers goes to give high fives to the people on the other side of the stage. He doesn't come to me at first. Then I reach my hand out onto the stage and he comes over. We awkwardly shake hands, more like just rubbing our hands together (lol?). Both of our hands were sweaty... My brothers friends and I continue to listen to the music. Brandon comes off the stage and signals with his hands for the crowd to follow him as he walks backwards. No one follows but me, I just awkwardly follow him with my hands behind my back. He goes down some stairs and I stay behind. Then I am walking around the building. I walk past the bathroom, its walls are netted (strange). I continue walking and walk into a kitchen. There is left over buffalo chicken and sausages in a tray. I eat some sausages. As I am doing so I get a text from my friend, she says "You won't believe this, guess what!?" I replied with, "You won't believe what just happened to me even more!" (Talking about the encounter with my favorite singer). I wake up.

    14. Hail

      by , 03-08-2012 at 09:02 PM
      I've had this dream in the back of my head for some time now, but over a year ago, I had a dream about hail. I tend to be the type to have dreams about natural disasters, specifically severe thunderstorms, because I am a storm chaser. However, this one is the one that caught me off guard, especially given the events of the next day.

      In my dream, I am at my grandmother's house. It's the middle of the summer, and about 3 or 4 PM. We are sitting in their living room, talking about the weather and waiting for my grandfather to get home. He drives a semi to and from New Jersey and occasionally Chicago and Michigan. Just as he pulls in the drive way, the sky outside starts to turn pitch black, the clouds churning with instability. A violent storm starts, just as he makes it into the house.

      My grandparents have two dogs and in this dream one of them, Ginger, dives under the kitchen table for cover while whimpering in fear; something she doesn't usually do.

      The storm is short lived, and begins to calm down or so we think. Suddenly, a series of large "BANG"s resonate from outside and when I glance out the window, I am horrified at what I see.

      There is a hail storm outside with hail coming down in the size of soccer balls.

      I beckon my aunt over to the window and she looks at us in fear.

      Then I woke up.

      The next day, while sitting on the couch, my grandparents were talking about the Bible. I am not a Christian, nor am I a Jehovah's Witness like they are. I consider myself a Pantheist with Buddhist and Daoist influences. I typically ignore what they have to say, but the one thing that caught my attention was that my grandma had begun to talk about hail.

      She had asked my grandfather to convert the measuring units they were using in the book so that she could imagine the size of the hail they were speaking of. It came out to be roughly the size of a soccer ball.

      It freaked me out, and I wondered if there could be some sort of symbol or meaning to this dream that I was having.

    15. Bed fire

      by , 03-08-2012 at 09:02 PM (Visions in the Dark)
      I had three dreams last night but I can only remember a fragment of one.


      I am laying on my bed in my bedroom and I notice smoke coming up from where the head of my bed is pushed up against the wall. I pull the bed back and see that a small part of the sheet is smoldering. The heater along the floor underneath the head of the bed is a water heater so I cannot believe it would burn my sheets, but it is turned up very high and my bedroom is sweltering. I run into the kitchen and grab a large blue plastic cup and fill it with water. I go back into my room and dip the smoldering part of the sheet into the cup to put it out. I am reluctant to fall asleep after that because I am afraid that another fire will start and I will die in my sleep.
