Used 2mg of melatonin and 100mg of b6 last night to no effect. Dream recall was moderate at best, and the dreams i do remember kinda suck. This is just going to be an update.
As a segway from the previous dream, the cop who had come to his senses bought plane tickets for me and some other people. I am not certain as to where we were going. The next thing I remember, we were in seats taking off, but this wasn't an ordinary plane. It looked like a fancy building on the inside and our group were the only passengers. There was a fountain in the center and all the seats were along the side on a balcony. I knew we were still on the plane because each side was lined with windows and I could clearly see clouds. The people on the plane consisted of my family, my best friend, my crush, and a friend from college who has never met either of them. She seemed to be best friends with my crush. I did absolutely nothing for a while, just joining in the conversation and such, then finally, it was time to land. we all got in our seats and fastened the belts. Then there was a countdown of some sort and we were almost landed when I woke up.

I am at my house, in my front yard, and it is mid-day. I am, in some way, disfigured ( like a zombie or something ), and the only one who sees me for the normal person that I am is my best friend. We are down on my driveway talking when a police car goes by. We know that for some reason the police are looking for me, and I'm like America's most wanted. So I run as fast as I can into the woods but it's too late. The cop already saw me and called in for backup. Seconds later, a cop comes with a backhoe and starts trying to kill me with the arm. I manage to grab on to it hang on. I forget what happened next but somehow the cop realized that I never actually did anything and decides to help me. It gets a little fuzzy after that.
I was in class and I was making friends with a few people, and the bell rung. I was leaving, but they all wanted me to walk with them instead of by myself. I turned around and walked with them, and we all got to a point where our classes went a separate way. I was thinking I could get used to do this on a regular basis, and I looked up at the sky and saw this huge satellite. All of a sudden there was a big blast that emitted from it, and the satellite began it's decent. Everyone was panicking and trying to run in doors. I was just saying "i knew this would happen". And I headed to a set of doors and i noticed that there were gray hand prints on the doors from where people were trying to get out of that particular building. I waited there until the explosion subsided, and walked inside. It was my next class. I was late, and I was looking for a seat. I sat on one side of the room, and changed my mind, and sat on the other. I don't know what the teacher was talking about, but it was very dark, and there was some presentation. I also had a dream that I was watching a movie in a theater, and the people in it were skiing in the desert.
I was in a living room lying on the floor smoking a cigarette (something I've been quit for over two years now). I turned to my friend who was lying beside me, stumped the cigarette out and gave him the packet of 20 cigarettes because I was dissapointed in my self for smoking. I got up, went to sit on the couch and started to watch the TV. At this point I got wind that I might have been in a dream, but I wasn't entirely sure so I decided to do my most common reality check (looking away and looking back). Since I had turned my attention away to my friend who I gave the packet of cigarettes to I looked back at him and I noticed he had a 10 pack of a different brand, at first I thought it was a good indication of a dream however I thought to my self that he might have simply put the 20 pack I gave him away and the ones I was looking at were his 10 pack, so I turned my attention to the TV. One the TV was an advert, it was of a family in a kitchen, advertising what, I don't know. As I watched the TV advert it looked like any TV advert would look in real life, people were speaking coherent sentences (unfortunately I don't remember what words were said), everything made sense and no matter how many times I looked away when I looked back at the TV it continued playing just where it left off. I even looked around the room at the people who were with me, some sitting on chair/couch, some siting at a dining table and again no matter how many times I looked away, when I looked back everything was just how I left it. I was confused, really confused, for the first time in my life I was absolutely convinced it was reality. I sat there for a moment and thought to my self; I tried to remember how I got there and I couldn't (this unfortunately didn't act as a reality check as all other checks seemed to override it). My reality was a mess, I had no memory, I was completely lost, the world I once knew was no more and I had no idea what my place in this world was. Eventually I just accepted it and said to my self "this is reality," at which point one of the dream characters looked at me and laughed, as if to say "of course it's reality, stupid!" I turned to my cousin who sat beside and asked him if he wanted to leave, to which he replied yes. He got up from the couch and when he stood up I put my hand out to him as if to help me up. He just looked at me, I said to him "help me up please," to which he replied "get up your self you lazy bitch!" This wasn't normal behaviour for him, the confusion set in again and I started to get angry. I shoved him and he shoved me back, so I grabbed ahold of him and pushed him right into the TV which was still playing just as coherently as it was before, untill the screen smashed. I turned to the people sat at the dining table and they looked at me like I was crazy, I started to question the people I was with and it became too much for me. As much as I was willing to accept reality, I had to do one final check and try to wake my self up, it was the only way I was going to find out for sure what was reality. I woke my self up...
I notcied a little pain in my left palm and I noticed a tiny piece of metal protruding from the palm of my left hand. I managed to grip it with my fingernails and pulled on it and out came a long thin ball point pen.
I was in some map at CoD4. I walked around some house and suddenly I started running. I found myself in some dark field it was night and I saw my friend there. Suddenly some dog started chasing us. The dog had many chains connected to something behind him. We started running down the field when I jumped and started flying...Appearently I flied all way to my town. I remember being on place called "Stari Grad" and I was going somewhere...

Lovely, had my first lucid dream today, (25-01-11) while I had a free period. After setting an alarm, so I wouldn't get late for my next class, and making the guy in the other room turn the volume of his crappy music down, I descended into sleep. I was in a small apartment or hotel room with my parents, and I was going to the bathroom, then I noticed that there was a toilet, only the inside of the toilet was outside the toilet? (weird) and I soon after realised that I was dreaming, and to test this, I made my parents disappear, and they did. Lovely! But since this was my first time, I did not have much control, and I didn't really do much things myself. But I did manage to summon a pretty girl to snog on I only came to that, cause I began to lose more and more control of it, and the dream started to blur out (or maybe my expectations of it bluring out, made it do it). I tried the spinning technique, and it worked.. kinda. I managed to hold the dream a little longer, but it was too late. When I finally awoke, I realised that it was just about the time that my alarm was set to, and quite right, only bout 20 seconds later, my alarm started to sound. Perhaps my inner clock knew that I had to leave for class about now?

I've been trying to do WILD for a couple of weeks, and something happened last night... I think I'm getting there! I started to feel like i was laying on a giant inflatable ball, slightly curved but with soft pressure on my whole body. I could feel some of the muscles in my legs starting to contract, and when I tried to relax more, it would continue anyways. I felt something on my face that I thought was my hand so I slightly moved my hand a little and realized it wasn't touching my face. I also heard kind of a buzzing noise.. like a low dull electrical hum. I couldn't tell if my eyes were open or not, even when I was blinking. Overall I felt really weak and floaty. I don't know if it was a dream or somewhere my mind just took me, but I was watching an ocean with huge brightly colored neon waves. I started to hear a dog howling incessantly and it bugged me out so I woke myself up.
I wake up in my room, except its from the previous house I used to live in. I'm nonlucid so I accept whats going on as reality, but then I try something that really has had me confused since having the dream. I lay down and close my eyes and try to induce a WILD. I see some HI behind my dream eyes and I even start to get heavy vibrations go up and down my spine, then I get a rushing feeling go to my head (and like in previous WILD attempts) I hear a white noise and an odd "ping!" sound when I know i've made it inside the dreamworld. Except this time instead of the "ping!" noise, it was actually the sound of getting a coin in a Super Mario game, more precisely from Super Mario Galaxy where you hear the sound come from the little speaker in the Wii controller. I mean, exactly, like that. I then find myself in a black abyss where a dream forms and I'm playing a new Mario game I've never played before, it was really fun actually, it felt light years beyond any console game I've played. It was a strange mix of first person, side scrolling, and 3D platformer at the same time? This whole time I'm completely in control and "lucid" in the sense that I knew I was dreaming... I just didn't know I was already in a dream to begin with and there was no need to WILD in the first place! So I guess it was semi-lucid. art by Marcus Blättermann Anyway it was lots of fun. Well, up until Bowser killed me and as soon as he did, I woke up. But not in real life, but rather in the bed and that old room I used to live in. Still of course convinced, that I'd woken up and thinking "aw man, what a short WILD". Looking back at it now, I understand the argument brought up by Inception (and of course before it as well, on this forum) between those who believe that layered dreams are real and those who think its just that we perceive them to be layered but are in fact just one dream. I'd like to say there's no such thing as layers, but after having experienced it myself, it's a fascinating idea and it felt pretty convincing, but I'm undetermined until I have more practice and experience with the subject.

First night since joining the site: Scene: Old School/home town Actors: Old teacher (Thu) school mates (ON, Morten, Martin, Benjamin, Frederich B) From the beginning: I cannot remember the start of the dream, but as far as I remember back, I was walking in one of the old streets, and for some reason I had to drive Martin, Benja and Frederich home, on my bicycle. And by that I mean that they sat on my bicycle, which apperantly was large enough for them to sit on it, and me to drive it. Anyway, after we had driven Frederich home, we went to my old school, where Thu was the leader of a youth club projekt, and ON was in it. As we walked around the school, we also met Morten, whom I haven't talked to in a long time. Can't really remember much other than that. I also remember that I was walking in the main street of my town, but because it was so dark, I chose to turn around, and walk home.
ive been trying this new method of figuring out when im going to fall asleep and it seems to be working wonders. ~key~ lucid semilucid/dream ~im laying in my bed as i feel a heavy blanket feeling coming over me and i know im going to fall asleep soon and i keep chanting "i will lucid dream" over and over in my head. At first the blanket that is a soft an very lightweight piece of fabric felt like someone collapsed a building on top of me...once i started dreaming I took a quick look around to find out im in this nice resort hotel with white sand walls and the sun was up and burning down on all the other people who were outside by the pool. The only thing was i had no fuckin clue why i was there at that point. all of a sudden it hit me...in the corner of my eye i noticed my Head chef boss sitting in the corner giving me the dirtiest look possibly and it hit me, i was doing catering at a hotel for my job. Well at least that could be explained but all of a sudden someone came in with a gun and started shooting the place up like a damn mad man. I cant recall what this pyscho looked like but all i can think of is that homeless guy that got famous being a radio talkshow host guy? well anyway he started goin nuts so he started firing shots at me so i dove into the water and it was sooooo damn cold. the bullets missed and when i rose back from the bottom of the pool everything was like it was before the nutcase stormed in. A few seconds afterwords tho my boss walks over to me an says "stop fuckin off and do some work" -_- I had to go around and put out labels for ever item that was gunna be on the serving line and for some reason it was the biggest bitch. i eventually got bored and found a bike and decided to ride it somewhere and i do remember i went to a few places but i only remember one and it was this nice big looking white house with a U shaped drive way with pillars in the front and a damn green lawn. I thought it was a good idea to break in and it turns out its my friend stephs house and i felt like a dick. After that i just remember riding my bike down some street and all the trees were dying.
Tomorrow I start incubating the concert dream, so tonight is the last time I focus on my prior goals before doing the course work. Got very good feelings that I will make the progress I need tonight. Cheers
1. My mom's side of the family was having at party at someone's house. I am not sure where it was located, and at this point in the dream, I don't know what it is for. We all sit at a large, white table to eat dinner. I can see out the window that it is late. I went over to my little cousin Lauren, who was having pasta. In the pasta was green peppers, red peppers, and tomatoes. I gave her more tomatoes, but she did not mind. For some reason, I didn't know tomatoes were already in the pasta! I went over to my cousin Jeannine, since Adriana was texting on her phone. All of a sudden, everyone went to one couch and sat on it. It was 15 minutes to the New Year. When I saw the countdown, I woke up due to my alarm. 2. There was something about driving. I think I was driving and it was foggy outside. 3. I was at my aunt's house, but it looked exactly like my friend, Kyle's house. We were going to make a haunted house. My little cousins would scare people by swinging down from zip lines located in the house.
1/24/11 - Highschool Prostitution Dream Non-dream Lucid I was at some weird fairgrounds-like place, with abandoned circus tents all around. There were no lights except for where I was standing; I was next to a small red-and-white tent, and there were lights strung across posts above it. A peculiar, obese old woman with extravagant clothing approached me. I can't quite recall what we discussed, but for some reason it became clear to me that this was not somewhere I wanted to stay. The woman informed me that a spell would keep me trapped within the tent I mentioned for exactly one hour, and that I would find an old acquaintance there. She opened a flap in the tent, and I walked inside against my will. The flap closed behind me, and I examined my surroundings. It really was quite a small space. There was a queen sized bed in the corner, and discarded clothes covering almost half the floor, resulting in hardly any space to walk around. What I was more concerned with, however, was the boy standing in front of me, wearing nothing but a pair of oversized boxers. I recognized him immediately as a boy - no, now a man - whom I'd gone to school with until halfway through seventh grade. He took a couple of steps towards me, but stopped when I said his name aloud. He suddenly seemed to recognize me. I asked him what he was doing here, and what was going on. He said he'd dropped out of highschool and was living here, as a male prostitute, to get by. According to his words, the old woman's entrapment spell would not wear off until he and I'd had sex. I glared at him as I thought it over. My dream self, being in my early 20's(and therefore what I consider "old enough"), reluctantly decided to go along with it, so long as he agreed to abandon his current lifestyle afterwards. We then spoke little else, because the two of us started making out. He started to unbutton my shirt and I ended up awake in my own bed.
