I became Lucid 3

I remember getting a call from SGT K about something I said at the last staff meeting that had him upset. I don't know what it was in regards to, but I told myself "yup...that's why I'm getting out". I started walking back home with my old room mate, and we came across this portable class room. He swung his Kevlar helmet at it, and someone inside opened up the door. I thought fast and said "Is tanya in there?". The lady who opened the door said "yes, but she's still studying". I said "tell her I said "hi". As I kept walking I could see her in the window smiling at me.

Blind Escape (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was an interesting dream, but it was sort of scary at the same time. The weird part is I'm just fed a lot of background information.

I'm in my dad's old apartment (In real life my dad got re-married a year ago and they moved into a much bigger apartment after they were married. I should also point ouit my stepmom in real life is very nice and caring.) and I immediantly know that my step-mother is evil. I know that she is just mean and cruel. My step-mom is convincing my dad to do something terrible with me, I'm not sure what it is though all I know is that she is hitting him and forcing him to agree. An abuse lady came in and asked me some questions. I basically acted like I wasn't scared and loved it there, but I hesitated so when she left my step-mother beat me. (My dream recall is weak right here, but she looked a lot like Mihcelle Obama.) My step-mom told me to just leave the house and never come back so I left, inside the house my dad was yelling at her. I wa soutside and caught up with the abuse lady and I crouched down behind her car because I was scared they would see me. She basically ignored me so I started crawling away when I saw my dad come out looking for me. I crawled up to this girl and she was crawling too, I said "Exscuse me!" because she was slow and as she was moving over she said "All these new crawlers don't lnow what they're doing." Then she sucked her teeth. I was thinking about what she said and then I saw the road. (This happens a lot I would think about something and be close to being lucid but then my dream would distract me right before I put all the peices together.) I started walking down the road wondering where to hide. (I actually passed down all the stores I use to in real life.) I saw the gas station but said no because they were doing drugs in there, then I saw two other stores but I said it was too obvious. I saw a bunch of houses in the distance and thought about my mom's house and why she would even let that happen. (I stay at my mom's house on the weekdays and my dad's on the weekends. I would of thought about that if it wasn't for my dream distracting me.) Then I saw my dad across the street looking for me, so I was going to go hide in some trees but I was topped by what I thought was hobo. I pretended to be his son so my dad wouldn't know it was me, and it worked he boarded a bus looking for me. I tried letting go of the guy's hand but he wouldn't let me, so getting scared I called for help and my dad opened the window and said he's coming. The man said he thought I had the wrong idea and said he was blind and that he needed help corssing the street. I said okay and I helped him cross the street. When I started parting with the man my dad came up and we exchanged a mushy momement and he said he kicked her out. He also said she was making him do something which was making him lose all his friends. Me and my father watched the blind man run across the street back and forth, never getting hit and acting crazy. (I woke up and went back to sleep)

I was observing what wa shappening like it was a movie. Threee girls were in a car and complaining about the air not working. The guy said they had to turn on the heat then the fan, they did. Heat blasted them and they shreiked, then it got cool. I realized that could help me solve something in real life. (I don't think it can actually help me but this time I was so close to being lucid.) They then started complaining about everything and how old it was. The guy got his friend, who I noticed was the blind man, and they started laughing about the girls.
--------------------------------
Side-Notes:
-These dreams were a mix of tv and a bunch of commercials I saw.
-These dreams also make me want to go see my dad.
-I was so close to being lucid so many times, but even if I was lucid I would be too swept up in the dream plot and lose it anyways.

I'm watching some daytime talk with three military people. One guy is in the navy, one's in the marines, and ones in the army. They're all comparing their work hours and what not, and one guy gets really upset with the airforce guy and tries to come over there, and fight him. The airforce guy knocked him out in one punch. I was at the computer narrating the whole event to Canceled Czech

1/26/11

Finally, after 4 days, some recall worth mentioning. I hope this means my dryspell is cured.

1- Gladiator, Redneck Style
I am standing in a line in the middle of a field with my mother and some other people, facing a crazed farmer who is talking about the Arena Games that we are about to fight in. The girl beside me mentions "respawning at one-third power." Oh good, I think to myself sarcastically, That way we can suffer painful deaths all afternoon.

The farmer introduces this enormous truck/tractor hybrid whose headlights resemble big angry eyes. The hood pops open and it's "tongue," a powerful bulldozer arm, tastes the air hungrily. "Meet Bulldozer, the tractor god!" the farmer thunders. Bulldozer picks the man up with his tongue and sits him in the control seat. "Here's a little demonstration on speed, for those of you who are thinking about running off." He drives around us in circles; it's clear that you won't be able to outrun the thing. Suddenly the games are starting, and zombies crawl up through the ground to double our problems.

Bulldozer kills my mother almost immediately. Fear pulses through my veins as I face the monstrous vehicle, but I ignore it and leap over the hood, kicking the farmer in the head. He laughs at me, saying I watch too many zombie movies, then embeds a knife into my forehead. It doesn't hurt that badly, so I continue to kick him, trying to break his neck. The knife falls from my head to the ground behind us.

Just as I'm about to deal the finishing blow, one of the farmhands (or possibly one of the other challengers) picks up the fallen knife and stabs me in the side, digging the blade across my stomach. The pain is agonizing; blood pours from my mouth as I die.

((Despite the pain and everything, this was a really fun dream!))

non-dream - non-lucid - lucid

26/01/11 I was with Ronja and realised I was dreaming, I take the chance and turn the dream sexual. She is glad I have finally made a move and take me outside.

She is teasing me and as we walk over a lawn she asks me if we should make love in open air or in a tent conveniently located on the yard in question.

…

I wake up and go back to sleep, after a couple of seconds images start appearing and I turn on my senses to stabilise.

I start flying through windows and floors. I encounter a few issues, but quickly gain confidence to overcome these and the problems are no more.

I start experimenting and manage to evocate a tornado under my control. I also make lightning flash in the background and feel pretty satisfied.

I also manage to summon 2 water elementals, that later start looking like water balloons in humanoid shapes.

Notes: I had natural awakenings prior to the dreams and I didn't even have to try to initiate them. One is probably more a DEILD, which is a first for me, so all in all a productive evening!

okay..
i dreamed about some exotic vacation where alot went wrong
and i think the way back home. with a lot of weird scenery and powerlines that didn't make any sense

1-26-11
Sleep: 9:00
I had 2 dreams, but only recall very little.
Dream 1 I was at a very wealthy person's ranch. The owner was in a wheelchair & I was walking up a ramp behind him in the barn. His grandson was there taking a riding lesson on the horse's.
Three midget race cars in the barn. End of dream.
Woke: 10:30 & right back to sleep.
Dream 2 ...Mind just went blank... Thought I would remember everything from just walking to the computer from bedroom so I did not bother to write it down. Major Rookie mistake.

Good morning, everybody. My recall was pretty crummy last night. I was playing around on the internet way too much. That always screws me up.

Dream #1

I was in a small room like a bedroom. There were a lot of other people in the room with me, possibly all female. We were all jumping up and down on the floor. The floor was white and plasticky. But there was also some loose, metallic frame making a grid of the floor. Also, the floor seemed to have more than one layer of plastic. The layers were flexible and separated from each other by about 20cm.

Somehow I came to understand that people jumped through this floor to be reincarnated. I saw a girl sink through the floor like a ghost. I knew she had passed, as a spirit, into a new body. I'm pretty sure I didn't want to be reincarnated. So I left the room.

Jan 24



I am walking alone across a desert landscape. The terrain is completely flat and barren... comprised of dust. It's a little windy, but this doesn't bother me so much, because though it's windy the dust isn't blowing at all. I know that I have a destination in mind but I don't know exactly what it is until I reach it. In the middle of the dreamscape, surrounded by nothing, a large white museum stands.

I make my way inside the massive building and see that there are other people there. We weren't all necessarily there to see or meet each other, we just had the same goal or destination. I am surrounded by small groups of individuals who are excited to see me. We talk briefly and I move between groups, or rather, the groups move around me, and I react to them.

Our conversations revolve mostly around dreams, and this reinforcement lets me know that I am dreaming. However, I don't have a moment to enjoy it, because the INSTANT I become lucid... I hear a loud droning bomb siren. An alarm flared and from deep within the museum I could hear planes overhead. All of us inside ran out into the desert to see a plane fly low above us and fire something from one of its turrets. It trailed green and lands on the roof of the museum. It flashes like a green strobe light and within moments another plane flies over and dumps another tracking device on the opposite end of the roof. I can tell that they are triangulating our position and that our cover has been blown. In the ensuing stress I forget my lucidity. Everybody escapes and runs in different directions, back into the desert, away from the compromised museum headquarters.

My friend Erin and I get out of the car it's probably 2 or 3 am..
We park unusually close to a warehouse club we frequent every saturday night. There is usually a crowd of 25-50 outside, hipster kids.
I only spot a few strays and it's silent, already I know something's up.
I'm noticing it's dirty and the floor plan is odd. Then I'm being, in some way, aggresively handled or grabbed by 2+ males,one definitely had a handlebar mustache. Then I begin spinning as if I'm seated on chair. It became faster and more violent, I become completely aware that I am asleep on the couch bracing my self with both arms. This is something new for me, to be almost simultaneously experiencing a percieved obe without fully "leaving" my dream experience. Finally I wake up on the couch trying to calm my breathing, feeling very relieved. Then I touch my eyes because they feel strange and tight. I see blood on my fingers and begin to panic. I run down the hall to the bathroom, I remember to pay close attention to the lightswitch as it brings no results. I feel relieved, briefly. I wake up on the couch again, this time a strange terrifying being is right beside me on the floor. I make a run for it, it's very aggressive and won't allow it. I start to feel exhausted. I wake myself up again, on the couch, I decide to go to my brother's room for some comfort/sanity. However when I arrive my voice is gone this time I become violent and frustrated (so I belive is why) scaryblurry guy comes back. I wake myself up again, couch, I wait......I hear the washing machine. Normal...until it becomes a loud ear piercing terrifying noise. This false awakening continues twice more before I truly wake up with other household appliances.

So, I fell asleep after some 20 minutes of small frustrating breaks, and I ended up forgetting what I should do as I fell asleep. I had one of those false awakenings, for I dreamt that I went down to class, and the only new thing, was that I no longer was in the same class, but a lower class. In my school there are three math classes: High, medium and low, and where I normal is on the high level, I was on the medium or lower, anyway, I felt disappointed for being moven down :S Forgot to do reality checks, so the night went pretty fast, without me noticing it.
Scene: My present school / lower class
Characters: My teacher, a few other students who I can't remember

I was in an underwater world where people travelled by these strange sorts of cages, when i noticed i was underwater i panicked but a DC told me it was ok because they changed my lungs, i decided not to take any chances and hold my breath, so for a while i was being pulled around by those strange cages and then i was on the highway beside my home ( this is it, therre a 50 m drop beneth it http://www.atmb.net/IMG/jpg_ROUTE_AP...TUNNEL-1-2.jpg ) and i was grinding a rail down the middle in my shoes, i alipped and fell on my nuts , i looked down and saw my pants were torn and my b*ll sack too, then i'm at the swimming pool and my coach says i'm fine and gives me some morphine, i walk around there for a while then my coach comes up to me and says "show me your motor functions" so i started saying numbers but then i couldn't control it and the left side of my face goes numb and limp, i understand i'm having a stroke. I hold out my hand to him with my fingers spread and say five , i look at my hand and see i actually do have 5 fingers then my dream fades to black

Synopsis: In the space traveling future, refugees escape from hostile aliens. But the hostile aliens find us. I dreamed the same dream again with different details

Note: I haven't been consistent with my challenge, moving out has me up and down. But last night I did remember to think how awesome dreams are, and told myself how much fun tonights dream is going to be

Exterminated by Aliens
For this dream, I'm mostly an observer. Every now and then I play out the main character. Other times I only watch her.

We were refugees on a great space ship, like in Star Trek. It felt like weeks passed by as we flew towards our destination. The rooms are filled with fear, anger, and hopelessness. I some how get mixed up with a small battalion, led by a crazy blonde. She is something fierce. The entire trip, she sat in a dim room making battle strategies.

It was time. The space ship hovers over the planet. My character isn't sure why she's here, or why she's going with the battalion, when she's only a civilian. But they insist that she had to go with them. So she descends onto the planet below. It's mostly a barren land, with fields of dry grass.

We came here becuase of the base, our last strong hold in this sector. My civlian character says or does something to upset the blonde leader. As some sort of punishment, or maybe as a way to prove something, she orders my character to fly back up to the mother ship and deliver a message.

So I hop into a little space shuttle and fly up towards the mother ship. She was beautiful. Resting between giant clouds the size of mountains, with the whole of the Universe just above. You can almost see the curvature of the planet from up here.

Suddenly, the hostile aliens attack! Their ships were dark and menacing. The mother ship fires back, but they have her completely surrounded. One alien ship fires at me. What am I supposed to do? I'm not a military personal! I don't even know how to fire even if I wanted to! So my character ejects from her shuttle, in a little round pod, quickly descending to safety.

When she lands on the planet surface she quickly tells the blonde leader that the mother ship is under attack! The blonde leader sees that my character has no battle wounds and scolds her for leaving the fight. Coward! She then commands everyone who can to get their asses up there and fight!

My character pleads to them to stop, its already too late for the mother ship, who was carrying thousands of civilians. But the entire base empties, and my character is all alone on the surface of the alien's planet.

By the time the battalion reaches the mother ship, the mother ship is utterly destroyed. Bits and pices floating. The hostile aliens make quick work of the human warriors. None survive. Say for my character.

She walks alone in the base. No where to go. She wonders if she's destined to live decades alone here, if the aliens are right behind her. It made no difference to her whether she lived or died. She was alone.

Story Time
I wake up, but actually its a FA. I quickly scribble down my dream. Moments later I'm on DA telling other members about my dream. To my surprise, other members this very night had the same dream. They also tell me that our dreams parallel a story. Interested, I try to find out more about this story

I wake up again, and quickly fall asleep. Not realizing I'm asleep again, I still try to write down my dream. Instead, as I think about it it forms again.

Exterminated by Aliens 2
This version was darker. Much darker. The first dream took place in day. But there was no sun or star to comfort us this time around.

The base looked primeval, considering this is the space age. It looked like a boot camp. A shed here and there. But this was all we had left. Our last base, our last hold out against an aggressive species.

I leave the main hall, we civilians and military, don't get along so well. So me and my friends try to find a quieter place. All there was left was a house on the edge of the base. The house was eerie, it looked..normal. Like who ever lived here didn't realize the human race was a dying species. There were pictures of children.

One of the pictures looked a lot like my characters daughter. I don't remember when my character had a daughter. But she does now.

My character and her friends enter the living room and to their horror an alien was there. Disfigured, and standing in a fetal position. They scream like bloody murder. But the disfigured alien doesn't move.

"Is it, is it dead?"

There was something, human about the figure. Almost as if a human was transforming into an alien. The male friend pokes the mutant thing. Its swollen closed eyes twitch.

"SHIT! GET OUT OF HERE!"

They all try to desparetely run out the door, but its looked from the outside. Its like a bad horror movie. The door won't budge! They bang, they scream, inches away from the half human-alien.

Finally I get fed up and jump out the window. The glass shatters everywhere. The others quickly follow. Fresh air was nice, even if it was nearly pitch black outside. What's that?

I notice something in the distance, over there in the fields. What is that? It's moving! It was black as night! It was moving fast!

"ALIEN! RUN!"

I quickly run for the rest of the base, my friends stagger behind. That thing was running on all fours, like some alien hound. It was fast, wicked fast. Its nearly on top of me, but I'm in reach of the main hall now.

Lucky for me a group of the battalion boys were outside smoking, and they had dogs with them. Wolf mutts. The wolf mutts quickly charge at the grotesque black thing behind me. And with a single gun shot, they make quick work of the alien hound.

Dead now. But this isn't good. The hounds come before they do. And they're out there. They could be anywhere, but its so bloody dark and we humans have crappy night vision.

I don't remember when, but sometime during the dream my character and her daughter was attacked by one of the aliens. Who were just as black as the hounds, all you could see were their gleaming teeth. But the alien didn't kill her. Which is unusual, because they want to exterminate humanity.

The blonde leader pulls my character aside as her daughter plays. "We have reason to believe your daughter has been infected"

"Infected?"

"Its why the alien didn't kill you. Even now, the change is happening on subtle levels. Soon she won't be human."

The leader walked away. The warning was clear. My character becomes emotional. Love for her daughter, and sadness of the shortness of time, till the time when the blonde herself will take care of her.

Finally the sun rises. Our little camp survived the night, thanks to the boys who didn't sleep. But I know whats going to happen. Because I know the story, and I know its repeating.

Once again, the blonde finds some excuse to send me to the mothership. I oblige, following the inevitable story. I admire the sight of our mothership one last time. The clouds around her were majestic, even more so this time. She had a halo about her shiny metallic exterior. From here in my shuttle I imagined all the crew and civilians going about their business, just another day.

The aliens come. Only this time they were different from the black greasy aliens that attacked me earlier. These aliens had larger eyes that glowed both red and green. I quickly fly back down when things get ugly.

Once again I deliver the bad news. Now there is a twist. "It was another alien species! One I've never seen before!"

"What does that mean?" says a soldier

"Koji told us we only have one enemy. . . it seems he was wrong. We are being exterminated!" says the blond leader

The base quickly prepares for the battle. My friends and even my family excitedly choose their own shuttle to attack from. It was sunny and beautiful out now. All the soldiers were way too happy. If only they knew. But its like I'm reading a story. I couldn't change the events.

My friends, with a grin, wave goodbye before flying off. I watch and memorize their every movement because I know its the last I will ever see them. But I dont have the heart to tell them. I let them all go.

The base is empty.

The aliens up above were waiting for the battalion. They were on a suicide mission, and the blast was more than atomic. And just like that. There were none survivors. The sun quickly sets.

I'm all alone now, except for my daughter, who only smiles. Quickly, we have to go! Quick! Were not safe here! They'll come back! They'll scan the planet! We have to go somewhere they don't like. I reasoned they didn't like the sun. Well moons reflect the suns light too. So I quickly ran to an open field, basking in the moonlight. But its not enough light.

I stood there in the field wondering if I was the last human, I also knew I was moments away from the aliens. I drift away from my character. Watching her hopelessly hug her daughter in the empty field, surrounded by black forests. She knew this was the end.

I woke up. I stumble out of the living room confused. When two people I didn't expect to see run down the hallway to greet me. My characters daughter and another boy, supposidly my sisters son.

They try to hug me

"Get away from me! You're not human! You're not mine!"

I hear my sister call for me from the bedroom. I'm so happy to hear a familiar voice. I quickly go to her. She tells me she has exciting news. I think "you got a new job?"

"No better. I've been given a chance to ride in a real space ship! Its a mothership. So I get to do a space-cruise too, just like you."

My mother pops in "She leaves tonight! Isn't it exciting!"

No. You can't. Don't go. Don't go. I shake my head but I can't utter the words.

Finally, I wake for real. I think.

Last night was a catastrophic failure to say the last, 's gunna have to go on the back burner, I'm afraid.

The plan for tonight:
-Think about the concert for as long as I can. Takes me an hour to go to sleep, so I have my doubts, but we can always hope.
-Wake up at 5:30. From there, it will only take me about 10 minutes to get back to sleep, I will think about the concert then as well. If ANYTHING will work, it will be this one.

I also found some Melatonin, see if that helps.
