Nonlucid

There is a black van speeding then abruptly stopping in front of a store in a mini mall. The store looks out-of-business with no signs in the windows. Out of the van jump a few members of a swat team and the local Mayor [no mayor I have ever seen]. The portly Mayor runs with the team into the store and leave the driver out in the van. Once inside the police go into a smaller room like an office room and the door closes behind them but the Mayor is out in the larger part of the store turned warehouse. There are washers and driers inside like its all in storage. The Mayor now by himself starts pacing and wiping his face in fear of it all. There is some kind of hostage situation he is being protected from. The Mayor in a panic starts talking to himself but without making any noise while the police are in the room listening to their radios.
Outside in the van the driver fears one of the bad guys may be scoping him out and calls for backup over the radio.
The biggest cop (nearly 7 feet tall) comes out catching the Mayor silently talking to himself an gives the Mayor a big pat on the shoulder as if to say "It'll be OK, don't worry so much." then he goes outside.

This whole dream was very random and very vivid. I attribute the vividness to the peanut better I am eating. I've heard this works from one of DVs threads and it sure is for me.

Normal means I don't know I am dreaming
Bold means I am lucid

I wake up in my bedroom and as usual I try to put my hand through the wall. It doesn't work and I get up to look at my digital clock. I looked but yet couldn't make out the time. I tried rubbing my eyes to get more clarity and still couldn't make it out. I got out of bed and walked over, still not making out the time. I thought I must just be drowsy. I turned around to go back to bed when I noticed something very strange. My floor was had grass coming out of it and I know I'm dreaming. I know that I need to remain calm as I let the dream take me. I saw my window turn into a staircase and all the pictures moving on the wall. I take a deep breath and smell the air. Stupid move.

Then I wake up for real and I am glad for making progress. I had two glasses of orange juice and grapes at night so maybe that helped.

Kinda disturbing dream tonight during a nap.

It started off relatively simple, I was exploring some large grassland like area and it slowly turns into the game Final Fantasy 7. I'm walking into different towns and talking to people. Slowly it turns back into reality and I'm part of this story about some guy who has become all powerful and hates the world or something. He's climbing to the top of one of those big metal power line towers at some point.

I don't really know how it gets to this, but the most vivid part of the dream is me running to the edge of a cliff with this giant monster, kind of a giant spindly manlike thing, off to the side climbing down a power line tower, murdering countless people. I'm part of a huge mass of people who are frantically running around screaming, most of them are going the other way but I'm going in the direction of the monster because for some reason I know I have to get to the cliff behind him. He climbs to the bottom of the tower (slicing up people who happen to be hanging from the tower) and begins walking towards me. Luckily he focuses on smashing the people around me and I make it past him. Limbs are flying everywhere and the gore looks like the chopped bbq chicken we use for chicken tacos. I think I'm home free for the cliff, and suddenly he turns around and runs at me.

I'm just about at the edge of the cliff but hes right behind me. I jump, and suddenly I turn my head in the head and his enormous face is on the edge of the cliff right behind me, and he lets out a huge burp. I think for some reason that this is supposed to kill me, and realizing I'm in a video game, I pause everything and save it. I then proceed to load other games, one that involves immediately getting vaporized by a beam of fire.

Now the dream changes into me and my friend reading a book about the situation. We think this is amusing story and call my other friend over to show him. He does not find it as funny. I wake up.

Just remembered another completely different dream I had. It involved our campus and my friend M. For some reason she is being pursued by a lynch mob and is hiding around campus. At various points during the dream we forget this and go out. At some poitn I believe we kissed. We decide to go to this show where we sit together relatively close to the front and I keep getting chosen to do things on stage. They tell me backstage that I'm supposed to play an impossibly stacked beer pong game and when I lose I'm supposed to get beaten (and actually hurt). I'm nervous but for some reason I decide to do it, wondering how the audience will react. However, the other guys suck at beer pong and just begin dropping the ball in my cups. Then by some wierd dream logic I find a technicality, do the same to them, and convince them I won the game. I forget where it goes from here, but I know I don't get beaten, so I guess all is well.

I was visiting my mother at her house. I noticed several large crates and boxes sitting around filled with fruit. I asked about them and discovered that my little brother was selling them. I briefly considered buying some plums, but then I noticed one of the boxes had a dog in it. It was an English bulldog who was rather large for her breed, about the size of a labrador. I bought her instead. I named her Missy and started walking home (which is impossible IRL) carrying the box with Missy in it.
Outside, the weather was terrible. It was overcast and terribly windy. As I rounded a corner onto the street I lived on, I was walking into the wind. Holding the box, I couldn't walk, so I set the box down on the edge of the street and continued to walk, intending to get my car and come back to get her. (Note: I would never do something like this IRL) A couple guys I know from work (we'll call them S and H) were walking behind me and called me to get my attention. As I turned to see them, I saw a car rounding the corner. The drove wide and I saw them heading for the box. I screamed "Don't run ove my dog!" but the car's tires went over the box anyway. The box tumbled in one direction and Missy in another. I ran over to make sure she was okay, and it turned out her paw was the only thing that was hurt. H offered to give us a ride to the vet, then I woke up.

I'm in my car, on my way to Stocky.
I want a roll up but obviously, i can't because i'm driving. So, i pull up around the corner. And then i'm in some kind of shelter, sat down, having a cig on some really big road bridge. It was busy, anyway, but more and more people start coming in- young people and families.
Then the location changer to someone's house. This guy is chatting up this girl. And for some reason, i make him a brew.
Then me and Am are talking. I light a cig for her. Then the random girl that the guy had being trying to chat up changed to her. I start teasing her about being chatted up by this guy.

[CENTER][U] Me the thief marker??!![/U][/CENTER]

I was at my old school and my teacher started noticing how the markers were disapearing, and all of the sudden she says Jairo it was you!!
and i said it wasnt me, after that i started asking everibody if they were cool markers but no body answered and my teacher looked at me and said you see it wqas you!!
then she sent me to the office and i fell really mad on the dream.
right after that i woke up. i dont know why :shock:

I find myself on a beach enjoying the warm sun as I strolled along the shore. I never liked swimming at the beach so I continued to walk down before I noticed a crowd forming away from the shore. I walked over and by the time I had gotten there, a few hundred feet away from the shore, they began to cheer as if some competition was going on. I looked back and noticed a few people running toward the water and I was under the impression that they had to swim out and come back in a race. So I watched for a moment before I was distracted by the dark stormy clouds looming over the ocean.


The crowd began to gasp at the same time that I noticed huge waves forming on the horizon on the deep end of the ocean. They just kept getting bigger and bigger as they arrived, till they stood what seemed several hundred yards tall.

(similar to this, but still out in the ocean)

Several of the people that went out to swim in the race began to run back, others just stared in shock, and some brave few continued to swim. I remembered I had seen my father earlier so I began to panic as to where he was. I stumbled and pushed through the crowd, which seemed to piss them off, I was confused because I thought the instinct to run from a freak tsunami was appropriate but they all seemed nonchalant. I then found my dad smoking a cigarette also completely unphased by what was coming toward us. I was confused but figured maybe I was over reacting, so I sat down on some steps in front of the crowd, when I heard a booming sound of an aircraft floating above us.


It looked much like the millennium falcon but taller in height and much more squared. It flew over us for a moment before jetting off into the sky. Suddenly I found myself in a bus and people were screaming as other spaceships were looming over us and at one point I heard a huge laser beam crackling down and saw it destroying the pavement in front of the bus. As it came closer to us I shut my eyes, wondered where on earth my dad was, what was going to happen to us, and I thought of various problems in my life which at that moment seemed so utterly pointless now that I was faced with death. I kept them shut as I heard the yelling of everyone, feeling people push me out of the way so they could run; but I knew there was no point, we were going to die either way.

For a moment behind my eyes, I saw a depth that was endless, much like I see in deep meditations some times. I felt so peaceful and I had no more fear of death, all I could do was wait. I opened my eyes, and saw the bus operating normally and everything was peaceful. I open my eyes again and I see and feel the tide calmly pushing and pulling on my feet as I felt the sand underneath me eroding. I open my eyes again and I'm in an aquarium, I realize I was here before what I thought was the beginning of my dream. I open my eyes again and I awake in bed.

Plans: Nomad wasn't acting like himself in chat today, and I know I have been depressed lately… MoSh said he could also use some healing, so the main plan for the night was to do a group healing with the three of us. Other plans took a bit of a back seat for the night.

A Healing Mist
I am in the biodome with Basara. Most of the depression I often feel in waking life is no longer with me, Basara currently has his arms around me to comfort me.

I am there in Basara's arms for a short time before a portal he says that if we're going to do a healing we need to be sure everyone is here. I open a portal to MoSh's inner world and go through it. On the other side of the portal I find MoSh wandering around outside the house and calling out to Asuka. I don't see Asuka in the area, so I start searching for Asuka with MoSh, I call out for her as well. I focus on opening a portal to find Asuka, then I lead MoSh through the resultant portal. It turns out Asuka is in the biodome near the healing hot springs. I leave MoSh there with Asuka and focus on a portal to find Nomad. He is in the mountains of the biodome speeding down the slopes on a pair of skis? I don't think I have ever seen him skiing. So I meet up with MoSh, Asuka, and Basara back at the healing springs. We all do healing spells together, and the area fills with golden energy. A soothing mist rises off of the water and surrounds all of us as the healing spells take their effect.


All For Nothing
I am working at the data center in a hospital just like I have had to do in the past, I am working on one of many computer terminals hooked up to the servers there. Even though there are many other people there and many free computers available, it seems I am the only one doing any work there. I find this to be really annoying. The only bright side is I have a really cool computer terminal to work at, a fancy one that has a lot of power behind it and three screens showing a lot of data.

Right now I need to be pulling up some information and printing it out for the nightly reports. I click a few different things and pull up what I think is the report I need, then I click for it to print. The printer springs to life, but the data it prints out is the wrong report. It is not what I told the printer to print, not even vaguely related. I try again, and it prints a bunch more crap that has nothing to do with what I want. This is getting frustrating, and I have the idea the other people in the room know how to fix things, but instead of helping, they are sitting around making fun of the fact I can't properly print out the nightly report. I am very frustrated with being here, does this mean that the time I spent getting my Bachelor's Degree was completely wasted?

Awake, Non-lucid, Lucid, [Commentary made while awake]

[This post contains dreams from last night and from Sunday night.]

Night of February 13-14

I'm out and about somewhere in town [Pat and Oscar's? It kind of looked like it]. Along the way, I sing a song: “I Run For Life” by Melissa Etheridge. [In the dream, I sang the lyrics correctly but in the wrong order, moving the first two lines of the last verse to the beginning of the first verse, and yet, I didn't take note of this as being strange.]

I'm at my kitchen table, eating breakfast. My mom is standing in the kitchen. We're carrying on a perfectly normal conversation about whether or not we're going out for coffee this morning. At first it seems like we are, but then my mom suggests that we could have premade bottled coffee here at home instead, so we do. It's cinnamon-flavored, and she prepares it by putting creamer into it.

When I woke up for real, I was slightly surprised to discover that the above paragraph had just been a dream, and that I hadn't actually gotten up yet.

Night of February 15-16

[Dream #1] I'm in a somewhat dark, upstairs room somewhere, with either my mom or my sister. [I can't remember now; the dream quality was low, but I did know that I was dreaming.] We've found a baby doll with long, red hair that sings Christmas carols. I sing along with whatever song it's playing as I walk across the room.

[Dream #2] I'm driving in my car on a freeway where everyone is driving much faster than I usually like to drive. Feeling like I have no choice, I match their pace. I want to get off the freeway soon, and as soon as I see an opening, I take advantage of it and move over into the lanes to my right, so that I can get to the offramp.

[Dreamskip.] I've now gotten off the freeway and parked in a parking structure. Somewhere around here, I realize that I'm dreaming. I walk over to the elevator to take it down to the ground floor. Two other girls are also approaching it, and they get into the elevator with me. One of them starts talking with me, and I introduce myself by name and shake hands with her.

When we're in the elevator, I get a good look at her. She has long, black hair, worn in two braids, and is pretty. I recognize her as my friend Tashi from my freshman year of college. “Tashi?” I say.

“No,” she says, shaking her head.

“Don't you remember me from college?”

“No. I know you, though.”

“So you do remember me, but not from the same place that I remember you from.”

She indicates that this is correct. I notice that the two girls are duplicates of each other. Then I woke up.

Im walking down the hill which goes to our school. I walk pass this white house wheres this "mopedcar" in the frontyard also theres P's motocross helmet on the ground. I walk down to the mopedpark at our school yard. Theres M sitting in completely white suit and hes friend who I dont know walks pass me and seems to be drunk, N is coming from the front door with his blue driving jacket on. I walk towards the other end of the yard and look at the schools clock. It shows theres about 15mins to go before the last lesson ends, I decide not to go there. Some guys are going to smoke cigarettes to the road next to our school. Theres H and PP atleast. I see 2 old people dressed in white on the road. They are talking about some "pissing trip" they are going to. The guys with the cigs are imitating the old ppl and making jokes of it. Then I come to the end of the road near to the elementary school. Theres a guy explaining to some women why is it hard to accept different ppl. Theres also some papers on the ground around them. Im walking pass the elementary school, with my old fleece shirt on and old cap which I havent used in public or anywhere in years. I feel embarrassed by the old clothes and Im looking at myself from a mirror to see do I have zits in my face. Then there comes AK driving his "mcar" pass me and I try not to look at his direction, so he cant recognise me.

Im at our living room. Theres some ppl in the entry and theres J dancing to music. Shes happy and shes like joking around putting something inside her hoodie and like grabbing it by her breasts, I think it was accordion. I smile at her and she smiles back, P also is smiling. Then Im next to the chairs and some foreign guy who is our guest is talking about some mandolin in the corner. He asks if its tuned, I say no. He wants to tune it and he needs some oiled strings to do it, It was some very old tuning technique. I go to my mums room and find some strings but Im not sure if they are thin enough. But I have a feeling they are good enough.

Im showing my beanie to A and S, because its full of some weird slime, probably because we were skiing the other day. I also have forgotten to pay my debts to J and I hope he forgets.

Was able to get a lot written down last night

2/15-16. 1130. Waiting in line for a ride at Universal Studios. I think it was next to The Simpsons ride because I recall some of that ride’s look in the background

On my computer. I notice that my Facebook relationship is different and longer. Still said “In a relationship,” but there was more after it. I couldn’t see all of it so I clicked on it and went to Theresa’s page and could see all of it. Then I’m watching a video, webcam look, of Brianna and Theresa playing a racing videogame. They both have steering wheels, but Brianna has control of the gas and steering, and I think Theresa controlled shifting and braking. Then shows the game. Looks similar to 1nsane. They were going around a long, sweeping left turn, but they always had too much speed because they kept crashing into the cliff. All the other players (computer) were doing the same. I think there was water (ocean?) to their left

6. In the desert at night. I’m driving or walking. Then come across three guys and I detain them because they’re wanted. One of the guys walks off across the road and continues east. I don’t go after him. The other two just sit by my truck. One of the guys is right at my door and his fingers are always at the door jamb and I keep slamming his fingers into the door, but it’s like he doesn’t even know I’m doing it, doesn’t care. Then I’m back to walking, but I’m walking toward my truck, like I left to go to the bathroom, and it’s daylight now. Captain Xxxxx calls me and says that Txxx and Uxxx were on their way. He says that Txxx needed $10 and that Uxxx needed change so Txxx had to get more than $10, so Uxxx would have change

In Austin, TX. Place looks like it’s out of a Western kind of, dirt streets and crude concrete/ wood/ brick buildings. Visiting the fire dept. Guys want help improving a part of the road because they always get stuck on it and have to push the rig. Small bump that I thought was it, but ends up being a 3’ drop. I suggest taking a skiploader and flattening the drop. The drop is then part of a flatbed trailer that hauls cars. Then say we can get some grinders and cut holes in the metal and then lay pieces of flat metal in those cuts and the drop is still there, but the rig can get through. Then we’re in a diff section of the town. Volunteers are getting into a block formation. For some reason, academy is there and we do the same. Volunteers do this weird hand thing, left arm bent in an L shape, palm up, and the right arm is at a 75º angle to the sky. Something about fallen volunteers I think. We then march over some area. There are lots of crosses, graveyard. Tourist kind of signs that say how many die, plains grass fires. Then to another area close by. A bunch of the volunteers wives are on the ground, about to give birth?

In some place just off a freeway. Desert looking. Messing around on some hills. Then in academy. Run over the mounds, another mound you go up and slide down a rope, only 5’ down. Then Xxxxx looking guy says, “I bet you can’t break down that door!” Kind of a barn door look. Run up to it, push on it to see where the hinges and stuff are, find them, and take a few steps back and run and break down the door with ease, door seemed floppy anyway. Next we went into a room where we had to help out our cadets I think. Then I’m standing outside and everyone is gone. I have to wait a while for my ride, so decide to go on a run. There’s an offramp about a mile out, so run to it. At some point, I’m on a light green bike. End up going under the offramp. There’s some sort of water collection basin dug out, not deep. Check it out, then start to head back

Last night I had pretty good dream recall, but as said I didn't have much opportunity to record as I was sharing my bed. But here's what I got down anyway.

Dream fragment I know I had a dream detailed before the one below last night, and I know
I tried to memorise a key word which would remind me of it in the morning when it came to writing it down. Unfortunately my ipod was out of hand so I didn't have the opportunity to type in any notes, or even the key word.


Dream fragment/intro The intro to the more detailed dream below started with me at a motorway services. However some of the layout was like an airport, in fact this had some of the exact same features I had in a dream a few months ago where I attempted to fly a plane. Somewhere in this scenario there was something to do with cars. I also vaguely remember it being day time AND night time, although this could be a memory mix up with the aforementioned dream.

Rest of dream I remember the tail end of a dream fragment where I had prevented a car from being stolen and I know, but cannot remember, making the thieves regret it. To reward myself I went into subway (definitely a dream sign as I cannot afford subway!) and waited in line. In front of me in the queue was a man eating a folded in half pizza. Suddenly it was snatched out of his hand by somebody who ran out of the store. I decided to chase. Outside was a blue car, no idea what make it was as I'm rubbish with cars. The windows were down and inside the two thieves were rifling through a ring of keys, trying to find the correct one to start the car. The keys were all identical and I think this feature came from an episode of Top Gear I'd just watched where they said a particular car "could have been started with a teaspoon". I reached in through the window regardless, and snapped a key off in the ignition. There must have been a scuffle because at one point I had forced one of the thieves into a sports bag and zipped it up with the intention of delivering him to the police. This person had taken on the appearance of a person in my seminar group, Sam. I was holding him upside down and could tell he was getting dizzy, I put my hand to the bag to feel his pulse but instead felt a sort of throbbing sensation, as if I could feel his headrush in my hands. The police station was at the bottom of a hill, next to (or replacing) a pub called the terminus in my home town. I got to the entrance way and was about to press the buzzer, identical to the one in my halls of residence, when I decided to give him another chance. I had a vague memory of a book I'd once read where a pilot forgave a worker for a disastrous mistake, he knew he wouldn't do it again because the worker was so shaken anyway. So I opened the bag and ask "Have you learnt your lesson?". He nodded and to show how much, started singing the song fireworks by katy perry (using her voice). The last thing I remember was feeling very emotional and then waking up.

-I was in a friend's house talking about computers, so I show him my motherboard and I tell him I have to replace it with a new one, then I realize that I already another one and it's one of the best Gigabyte motherboards. After that we continue talking about random sh*t drinking some whisky (no effects recalled). I wake up and realize I don't have the Gigabyte motherboard

-Me and 4 friends were in a plane parked on the beach, we go out and do something outside, then we go back to the plane (bad recall, should have wrote it when I woke up).

-My aunt tells me I have to find a vehicle to take this oil bottles somewhere, I find an old truck and we load the bottles...

-Me and my friends (girls and boys) are in a pijama party, I'm lying in my bed trying to call the attention of a girl, while Nicholas tries to do the same, suddenly he starts kissing an ugly girl

Can't remember the others right now, but I remembered them when I woke up
