(I've been watching Psych lately, so this remined me of it, mailny because Gus was there and so was his ex-girlfriend Ruby) (I guess I was Shawn, but It was first person, and no one said my name, so I wasn't sure) I was in the gym Lobby. I suspected we were solving a mystery, Gus was beside me and a girl, I didn't (and still don't) know who she was, but she looked familiar (I think she might have been 8, the DC from my other dreams, not 8 years old). We walked by the desk (empty, but messy) and the smoothie bar (I like smoothies). We went past the rooms where people hit the tennis ball on the wall and try to get it over and over, everything looked like it did in the gym my dad used to go to (which means there really was a smoothie bar) but it was all empty. We sat on a bench, the only thing that was off about the place was the round window leading to the next room behind us (It was supposed to be a mirror, I didn't think about that until after). "So she's in here?" I turned to Gus, he nodded. "Be careful, she's listening to music," said the girl. (Wow, she might kill me! *sarcasm*) I went in, but Gus went ahead, the girl stayed behind. Gus went around a beam in the middle of the room, but I stood right infront of it, observing. There was a large dent in it about the size of my head. I grabbed the inside and lifted my self up, then went back to the ground (I've been climbing trees a lot lately, I guess I was still thinking about it). I walked over to Gus and saw that he was talking to Ruby on a treadmill. She was the one we were after I guess. I pulled Gus away. "Dude, let's go to the gift shop," I said. "Okay," he said We pulled Ruby along and I stopped, "Wait a minute, I used to go to this gym!" I said, "It used to be called, (I said the correct name but I forget it now)" Ruby nodded and pointed at a TV with the old logo on it. (Odd enough that they would keep it there) I got confused, but we continued on to the gft shop. When we got there I noticed a bunch of rolled up temper-pedic matresses against one wall. The girl behind the counter was the one we were with earlier. There were action figures of what 70's-80's band names inspired on the counter. I looked to my right and this girl from real life was standing with her sister (I'll call her Half (it sound cool huh?) and her sister Half's sister "Half's sister (creative, I know....)) I looked at Half then quickly looked away. She picked up one of the figure's from the desk and observed it. I looked back at her and she said something along the lines of: "Well, I guess I should buy this as a preasnt in case I can't aford anything else" (what an odd choice for a preasant) I looked at he with an odd smile, (her sister hadc no real importance in the dream, she just was there in the background) she smiled back. We walked away and out the door, and everything faded.

Dream - Lucid I know there was more to this dream than this, but this is all I can really recall right now. I was in what looked like a bedroom. The carpets were dark red. I remembered something from my waking life (which happens quite a bit in my regular dreams as well as lucid), and that somehow got my brain to the conclusion that I was dreaming. I started to walk through the room, and the right side of my vision went out. I started trying to get it back, but it felt like my eye was shut so tightly, that it would open my real eye if I tried too hard. I decided to wait it out. I walked by a bed that was on my right. In front of me, was...me. I was there, sitting on the floor. My hair was pulled back into a ponytail, I was wearing a white shirt, and I was sitting Indian-style on the floor, looking at me and smiling. Curious, I approached myself, hoping to ask some questions. By this point, my vision had fixed itself. I came up to myself sitting on the floor. I looked, and where I had been sitting there was now some sort of kitchen appliance machine still in its box instead. The box was white and was in a shopping bag. Weird. I started trying to figure out what that could have meant. I then was outside in the daytime. I saw a huge, clear, beautifully vivid rainbow. I was with someone, my dad I think. He was standing in front of and facing me. I told him to turn around and look, because I could see that the rainbow was about to fade. The sun started to set very quickly as the sky turned orange and red. The rainbow's colors darkened but were still vivid. My dad turned to look, and the rainbow started to morph. The top of the rainbow started to break up and turn until it was a bunch of vertically-facing dark-colored bands sitting on top of the rest of the rainbow. My dad pointed out what was going on extremely matter-of-factly, but I can't remember what he said.

It was in the time of ancient egypt (I'd never realy thought about that since 6th grade), there was a peasant and a pharaoh, I was watching from above, completely disembodied eyes. We were in a mud-brick hall, the ceiling raised about 40 feet. I could hear muffled talking going between the two, I moved closer. It was like a picture from a computer, as I zoomed in, there was less detail. The outlines got bigger and everything. I was suddenly on their side, at ground level. I could make out some words, but I forget most of them, then the peasant said: "No, I cannot trust you with two hands full," (This of course made no sense and then I woke up)

I remember i was in some kind of a mall but not bying thing's, I was screwing with people. There was this large male who i loved to troll like i pulled his pants down and he started chasing me then i looked back at him and hit him in the face xD. Then he just dessapeared somewhere. Later some kid was walking across me and i tripped him and he fell and dissapeared again. Finnaly there was this chick with a bright green shirt i don't actually remember what i did to her but she started chasing me to . I got to say it was pretty fun. Also i remember that i got tired and asked the girl to have a little break. She agreed got my "breath" back and started running again i was getting kind of excited and so i woke up. The last moment's of the dream were semi-lucid for sure becouse i thought it was kinda strange for me to do this im pretty sure the excitetment of becoming lucid woke me up. P.S I feel like im getting my reccall back SCORE!!!
Dreams, I believe, are conjured in the subconscious mind. The reasons are not important, nor are the meanings apart from the obvious interpretations. I look at my mind as having (at least) two liquids. The Conscious mind floats on top of the sub-conscious during the day. However, as we sleep, the conscious mind gradually falls or sinks below the surface of the sub-consciuos. My belief, at least in visual terms, is that during a lucid dream the conscious and sub-conscious become entangled so that both are sinking or rising at the same time. It would stand to reason that if I were able to command my subconscious while I'm awake to "rise" and become entangled that I would be able to enter a transe-like state and become lucid at will. This is not currently and may never be my goal, and I could be completely wrong about everything, but this is how I see things.
I finally decided yesterday that I would actively pursue Lucid Dreaming as an interesting hobby. And depending on my success, that is to say how often I'm able to conjure them, it could lead to other 'things'. The first thing I did was investigate the physical aids to Lucidity. What I discovered was that those aids were no magic pill. They were and are designed to create dream signs. To me, a dream sign is an aspect of your current dream that is directly and immediately being influenced by something in the wakeing world...such as flashing lights of a mask or your need to go to the bathroom. I went to bed last night without expecting anything to happen, though before I fell asleep I realized I would need to go to the bathroom during the night but I was too lazy to get up. As it turns out this was the exact perfect thing, because during my dreaming (and I only recognized this after the fact) there was a lot going on with jugs of orange juice or soda. It was the dream sign of water or liquid and it was filling my dream because of my need to go to the bahroom. The key is to keep the stimulus (whatever it is) low profile enough so that you don't immediately wake up when it begins, but also constant enough that your mind creates dream signs around it. Moving forward I plan on performing a Reality Check any time I come into contact with a liquid, that would be either drinking water/coffee or carrying a container of water. Reflecting back, the "full bladder" dream signs have always involved liquid in some way. And I choose this way as the cheapest and easiest means. This should get interesting...
I was at a camp called McKeever, and we were going into the dining hall. Something prompted me to do an RC, and I did, disbelieving that I was dreaming, but I thought my nose was open the first time. Then it did work, and I ran inside the dining hall and attempted to put myself through a wall. It didn’t work. I tried to put my finger through the wall, and it broke it (not my finger). The McKeever staff got mad because of this, and they sent out people to kill us. I almost woke up here, but I rubbed my hands together and didn’t. Us and some other teacher ran up a trail, but she saw the evil people there and ran us up another, but they were there, too. So she muttered something and said for us to go off in different directions. I was scared, because there were hooded evil people everywhere. So I ran up to one and yelled, “You’re not real!” The thing seemed unfazed. I repeated it, and had the same unpleasing result. Finally, I pointed at it and screamed, “Your hand is… broken!” The thing hung its head and began to cry.
Alright, this is what it's on about! I had a lucid! I woke up at 8:30 to my alarm clock, thought twice about LD'ing, went back to sleep and achieved awareness. Last night I read the self-hypnosis to lucid dream script, which might've helped. First Dream I can't remember this one. Only thing that comes to mind is a lot of pretty asian ladies Second Dream Something about Eragon and my Lithuanian friend. In the dream, his sister was actually a dragon-rider, and I recognised one at that, some kind of boss. I was a dragon-rider too, so I went up to my friend and his sister and said, 'Salutae...' Because I can't speak ancient tongue, so I made it sound a little Latin. She just like looked up and said 'sh' as in to give me a clue about what her name was. I couldn't remember, but I did say Shurt'ugal and stuff like that. In the end they told me what it was, but I forgot now :/ Then there was some kind of war and this hot girl, looked about two years older than me, latina, was taking care of my battlewounds. For the rest of the dream I was just lying in the mud looking at her. When she realised I was looking, she smiled. Warmly. I felt my heart melt. Third Dream This is the lucid one. I was in a room which looked like my parents' bedroom in my house. My brother was there. Suddenly, not even knowing why, I speculated if it was a dream. I looked down at my hands. My middle finger of my right hand was wonky, and so I realised it was a dream. I quickly stabilised it by rubbing my hands together and then went over to the window. A lot of people were entering the room now, including the girl I have a crush on IRL. I glanced at her but didn't say anything; I didn't want another LD just talking to a DC of a girl I liked. So I opened one of the windows, but it had plexiglass behind it still in place, so I opened another window, but that one was the same. I looked down at the street and wanted zombies to appear for this to turn into a zombie-apocalypse dream, but nothing happened, and I didn't want to simply imagine them there, because I could feel the dream was quite shallow and imagining things in dreams thins them out for me. So I turned away from the window and dived over the table. Nobody even noticed. Then we were suddenly in my dad's car parked on my lawn in Poland. I came out the car and saw my English friends running up the wall to my garage, so I tried too, and failed. They kinda ran up the wall and stopped, then jumped off. They told me that the trick was to get your legs straight, and that would cheat gravity. So I did, but I mistimed the jump and fell off again. The last round was asking questions, like a trivia kinda thing. One question I can't remember, but the other one was about Hitler. I didn't know, although they requested to hear an answer. My dream recall ends here.
Fragments Alex Ferguson was in my kitchen. Dream I was in a reveresed version of my auntie's house and we were throwing a surprise party for my big cousin. Some of the family I recognised but some other people I did not. When he was near the house everyone ran out of the house, when he pulled up everyone cheered "Happy Birthday!!!". We then went inside and it gets hazy from there, then I wake up.
Last night I had a dream, and it happened in the ten minutes before I woke up to do my first WILD. (Which failed, by the way. But I did get to the part where you feel like you're moving!!!!!!!!) I was with one of my friends, who asked me if I wanted to meet some of her friends who I had never met before. We all grouped up together, and started walking up a path next to a road. When I asked where we were going to go, they wouldn't tell me, but they knew that I would enjoy it. For about the first time in my recorded dreams, the sky was grey and the ground was wet, like it had just stopped raining, but could continue at any moment. The air was crisp and fresh. We walked up the main road from one estate to the next, but halfway up we took a turning into the woods. (This isn't really that unusual for me, I often take shortcuts like this). The trees were all wet and coated with dew. We turned to the right, where the overhead trees were suddenly shorter, and almost replaced with shoulder height bushes. On my right, there were bushes, and on my left, there was a mound of snow of about the same height. We were probably walking in an irrigation ditch, because there was nothing else to my left for about half a mile, and what was there half a mile away was just a line of trees. It soon became night time, meaning that I couldn't see my body or anybody else's for that matter, just their heads and the sky. The field that we were walking alongside got cut off with a line of trees, and on my left the trees became taller again. We climbed a hill, and ahead I could see several square shaped mountains. We went back down the other side, and walked around the next hill. At the bottom of all the hills were valleys, where there was no snow. In the valleys, there were just rocks. Some of them were quite big, and some of them were just the size of a block of post-it notes. The strange thing about the rocks and the reason why I was taken there was because somebody had painted on every single rock a logo, phrase, pattern, object or anything else that might have came to mind. The rocks weren't wet. We all sat down on the snowy hills (I'm beginning to think the hills weren't covered in snow, but were actually just piles of snow. That would explain better why the rocks weren't covered in snow or wet) and ate some sandwiches. I finished mine before everybody else, and started looking through the rocks. There was a couple with smiley faces on, that I was really happy with! I was quite upset when I saw one with nothing on, because I actually fell to my knees yelling 'NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!' when I saw it, but it only took me a few more seconds to realise that it was a snail... :/ I don't remember much more. But it does remind me of a bike ride I went on a few weeks ago with my dad, which brings up that other dream I had. But I'll think about posting that when I have the time, and the proper dream journal with all the details, or maybe just full access to the internet XD Hope you enjoyed :3
So I wrote down some notes once i woke up, heres the summary. First dream i recall involved lots of parkour type jumping and flipping being recorded on my gopro camera, running around a kinda futuristic mall and I really remember doing a big frontflip to handstand to spinning flip thing that would have been very impossible in real life down a slight (like 5%) decline, as with many dreams i rember almost floating above the ground either being so strong or weightless. Then later on in the dream I remeber dealing with hiding my friends bag of marijuana that was in a large bag of paintballs on the roof of this kind of mall place. Then looking for the parked car somewhere in the parking garage and having a impossibly difficult time finding it. Then there was this part where I had sex with a girl who had animal fetishes that then turned into some kind of root bound carrot creature..? towards the later dreams i remeber leaving a younger child behind that I was supposed to be watching for some reason then veiwing his interaction in a third person view of him being upset at this groups actions and slapping many of them in disaproval but also handing out suckers to the older people and somehow having a happy ending from what i recalled. I didnt get much detail I remeber because I couldnt ignore the music being played in the living room that was kind of frustrating my attempts at recalling my dreams upon awakening.
Jurnal #1 - My Lucid Dream as Suggested by Dreamviews just today, i successfully wild, but i'm lazy writer i dont have book jurnal, so let me type it online. pardon me for this lame act, but i want to record this first my "fully controlled" lucid dream. the dream started on, not sure maybe 8 or 9am on sofa, after a short nap, my wife woke me up, she said she want to go out, i get up turn off my PC and fan, and get back to the sofa, after another short idle nap, i woke up but still close my eye, i remember wild and i know i'm still half sleep state, so i attempt wild, very hard to purposely enter a dream and my body tinggling as usual, but not so tense, i ignore it, continue attempt to the dream world, at last i entered when i move and feel my hand and feet one by one off the sofa and... walk away. look at watch its 11.00am and reality check, now it passed RC, and i realized my wife still not home, so i jumped to DV to type this experience. [B]several important achievement..[/B] so.. have a nice day. albeit this boring stuffs. :D is my journal ok? good enough? or should i do more detailed work. dont mention i should not do it online, i know but i'm 1st time excited, cant hold it and want to share.
non-dream lucid dream This was the first time I had ever dreamt about space and one of my early lucids. It had been quite the experience. I was in some sort of lab. Everyone around me was in white lab coats with safety goggles on. There were a lot of high tech machines around me, they seemed futuristic. I was walking towards the exit when man came running up to me and said "You're needed in sector 12, your crew is now departing" I followed the man until he led me to some sort of portal and said "After you", gesturing towards the portal. The portal was a glowing light blue, pretty much how I pictured all my portals. I stepped through and felt there was a flash. I don't remember the transition completely but I end up in some room full of glass panels and 6 people in orange suits, I had one on as well. It seemed like an astronaut suit and I was wondering where my helmet was. All of a sudden there was an announcement over some speaker system "Launch in 7-8-9.." The whole room shakes for a few seconds and then I hear a *DING* sound and the shaking stops. A glass panel opens and I see a hallway appear. The people in the orange suit start to get out and so I follow them. I somehow part from the group and head up a stairwell. It seems to never end... I climb continuously up for a while until finally an opaque door appears. There is was a keypad beside it, probably to enter the password to get through. I push 1-2-3-4 and it works! The door slides open. There in front of me lies complete darkness. I peer my head out and see what I could only describe as is distant galaxies and stars. Suddenly I realized this is dream, I'm in space! And in an instant my feet lift off the floor as I accepted I was in space and there was no gravity to hold me down. I step out and my legs are trying to find a flat surface. They loosely fling around as I try to manoeuvre through space. I try and swim thinking it may be more effect. I stop for a second and look back and there I see a huge spacecraft floating behind me. Then I thought to myself how am I breathing without a helmet, there's no oxygen in space. I start to choke and clutch my throat, slowly my dream fades away.. I wake up coughing and kinda gagging.. No time to proofread
This was a weird one. It started out at the beach in a house I don't own sort of browny glossy fancy look, very big. My cousins asked me if they wanted to go get Mt. Dew with them and I said no. After that I remember my dad saying "Hey, let's go astral project" which was very weird because my dad doesn't even know what that is as far as I know. So we wen't to the out house I'm not sure where it was, nowhere near the original house, and then we were turning off all the lights and he said it was too noisy so he gave up. Next I was walking to my parents room and they were doing 'it' (lol) and they yelled at me to get out and they locked the door. I honestly have no Idea how I didn't become lucid since my dad knows nothing about AP and I don't even own a beach house anymore. Maybe I should try for 8 hours of sleep instead of my regular 5 to 6.

Got even less sleep than last night, but I know I had at least one dream. It was nagging at the back of my mind all day. Tonight will be my last night with internet access for about a week, though, so I should be back on a regular schedule.
