The dream started with me being at the beach at what looked like Cape Cod, MA. I could see up the beach towards a pier on one side, and just endless beach on the other. There were lifeguard chairs all along the beach, maybe 20 feet apart, but nobody was there. The beach was filled with people, probably a thousand around me, and it was pretty warm. I took off my shirt and went into the ocean for a swim. The water was freezing. It felt like it couldn't have been more than a few degrees above freezing but it didn't seem to phase me.

I walked out until it was about 3 feet deep and the waves started to get bigger. They grew from only a foot or two to being over 4 feet each. I decided that i had had enough and started to get out. Right when i turned around i felt a sharp pain on my foot and saw what looked like a crab, but it was quickly swept away by the ocean waves. It wasn't very painful, it felt like a bee sting, but for some reason it started to bleed a lot. I didn't think anything of it and just kept walking towards the beach. Suddenly, i saw lifeguards appear on their towers and they all started screaming and blowing their whistles. I didn't really acknowledge them very much but then i felt something smooth and big rub up against my leg.

It was a shark! There were sharks all over the place! (Damn Shark week on discovery ) I literally jumped out of thew water and ran over the top of the water as if i was jesus! I thought to myself, "This is way too strange. Sharks? Walking on water? All that blood? I must be dreaming." So, i checked my hands. they were tiny and only had three fingers. Just to bee 100% sure that i was dreaming i did a quick nose-plug RC and, what do you know, I could breath!

I rubbed my hands together, and focused on the feel of the water on my feet, the smell of the ocean, and the colors of the people on the beach. The dream seemed so vivid, the colors were so bright, but the smells seemed really dull. I thought of what to do and thought i could try some sort of shared dreaming since i had read about a lot of that on the forums, but then i remembered the TotY. I had already done a few of them, and i figured i would try to get one or two more. The first one that popped into my head was Casablanca, though I've never seen the movie.

I didn't even know where Casablanca was, or if it was even a place, but i knew that i had to ask this guy named sam to play me a song in some type of club, so i said out loud, "To Sam!" I closed my eyes for a second and, when i opened them, i was in some cabana-type night club overlooking the ocean. I spotted a large piano and a man sitting beside it playing some song I've never heard it before. I figured this must be sam, so I walked over to him, "Hey, you Sam?" to which he replied, "Nope, my name's Zachary. Sam's over there," he pointed at another piano with a man sitting there. I couldn't really see his face but i saw short, black hair and what i think was a tux. I walked over to him, "Are you Sam?" i asked him. He didn't say anything. I asked him again, "Hey, buddy, are you this Sam guy or not?" He turned around and nodded.

His face was all blurry, like somebody would do to a video trying to hide their identity. I figured i might as well jump right into it and ask him to play me a song. He sighed and turned around. I was quite intrigued as to what song he was going to play, but i was surprised when he started to play Billy Joel's "Piano Man." I guess it makes sense. Heck, a line in the song is "Play me a song, you're the piano man..." It sounded just like the real deal only he didn't have the harmonica (i like that part ) I looked around and all the people in the club got up and started dancing, and some even acted out the song. I found this quite funny as the few who acted it out really seemed like they felt how the song went.

I decided since one part was done, why not do two? So I figured i would try the 300 spartans. I thought to myself, "when i exit the club, i will be in the battle of thermopole" (or however you spell it XD) So, as i walked out the door i was! However, the battle hadn't started yet. The spartans were getting into formation ready to fight the persians who stood across on the other side of the pass. Just as the persians started to charge, the dream started to fade. I tried to stop it. I spun, i rubbed my hands and focused on my surroundings, but nothing worked. The loser the persians got to the spartans the more i lost touch with the dream. Finally, they collided, and right as they did so, I woke up. I tried to do a DEILD to finish off another task, but i just fell back asleep.

GOALS:
Casablanca TOTY

NOTE: I've been a slacker, so I haven't posted an of my Nonlucids. Don't worry, I'll start up with them again.

I'm at the store with my mother. Obviously, we are shopping. We run into a Spanish woman wearing all black clothing. We say excuse me and keep shopping. We quickly finish and go to check-out. While we're checking-out, my mom tells me to go find the Spanish woman and ask where the taco stuff is. Odd, tacos are Mexican. But, I don't refuse, and go. I end up searching for a long time. I give up, apparently she's not here anymore. I start to head back. On my way, I accidentally bump into Nathan A. from school. He's pissed at me for bumping into him. I see he's also with Lauren M. from school as well. From being pissed, he challenges me to a fight, here and now. Oh shit. Nate A. could kick my ass anytime, anywhere. Well, I had no choice, especially in front of Lauren. I accept. Now we both claim our fighting positions. I get in the fighting pose Goku uses in his first fight against Vegeta. Nate looks at me like I'm a total faggot. He starts to laugh at my pose. Then, the fight starts. He comes at me, and throws the first punch. I easily dodge it. Wow, that pose did really help. I twist around. Now I'm facing Nate's back. I through a heavy blow. Then, I follow up with a continuous punching rush. I continue until I knock him out cold. I was surprised that I actually won. Lauren looked impressed(too bad it wasn't real, I really like her). Now, I walk away. I rather not get in trouble. I see my mom isn't at check-out. It's also very dark out now. I go outside. There is only one car in the parking lot. It's not my mom's...FUCK. Did she really leave without me?! Son of a bitch! That sucks some major balls. Soon, I see a police car come over to me. The officer asks what I was doing here so late. I explain the situation. Then, he tells me I should be in school. School?! It's fucking 12:00 A.M. for all I know! Well, I figure not listening to the police is a bad idea. So, the officer drives me all the way to school. I go in, to see that the place is over taken by some evil dude. All these shadowy figures are going around. This is really freaking the fuck outta me now. I am sent to room 110, Mr. Brown's room. I go in and sit down. We have desks instead of tables. They're all lined up in perfect rows. I also have different classmates with me. I sit down. It's completely dark in here. Biut some lite is still emminating from the hallway lights. We have no teacher with us either. Sydney B. comes in and points at me. She says she told the principal what I did. Then, an evil voice comes over the PA. It says I'm supposed to report to the office. Sydney is now seated with us in the silent room. I get up an go over to her. I tell her, if I don't come back alive, it's on her conscience. I go out into the hallway. What did I...was it because I beat the hell outta Nate? But now, I become lucid without dream signs! Awesome. Time to get the fuck outta here. I go through the hall way. All the demonic creatures are approaching me now to take me to the office. Not on my watch bitches. I get in a fighting stance. I don't know if this will hurt them, but it sure as hell will distract them. I cup my hands to my side. Now I shout while putting my hands out.
"Kamehameha!" Then, a blue ki blast fires from my cupped hands at the demons. There's an explosion. Now's my chance! I jump up, then I start to fly away. I land at the main enterance. Oh right! I have to do the Casablanca TOTY. I do the turn around method to make Rick's Bar appear. I do it about three times, and no results. What the hell?! Where's the damn bar at? I go outside now, then I notice it was here since I first tried to make it appear. It was where I couldn't see it though. Wow. That's disappointing. I have no time to waste now. I jump up on a car now. I see my friend Zaine's also on the car. I also notice it suddenly became day time. Interesting. I say I have no time to waste. We both charge our ki up. Now we speed fly towards the bar. We both start blowing away the place with ki blasts. I see Sam on his piano. I go in and ask him to play something. He starts to play four notes repeatedly. Awesome! I did the task! Now, I leave, but I soon wake up.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID FALSE AWAKENING

Vampire dogs
Policemen find a body in the middle of a street. Someone asks them what happened and they say teenagers are mysteriously disappearing and ending up dead in some distant place, drained from blood. I go home and I am visited by a friend. I ask him to stay away from my dogs. He asks why and I show him that they all turned into vampires. He says I’m nuts to keep them, but I tell him I love them still and I offer them my blood. To demonstrate, I offer them my hand and all of them (three, I think) come to bite me. It hurts as hell, but I am willing to sacrifice myself for them. They are all on leash, but one of them escapes. Then I get worried about him biting someone or even just my cat who is on the house. I don’t want the cat to become a vampire to. Not my pussycat!

Money, money, money
At the entrance of my mom’s building. I come with dad, but he heads to the elevator immediately and I stop at the mailbox. I have one mailbox just for me, which I don’t open for years. It’s full of cash! I try to take it out without the incoming neighbors to see and get envious.

Where's mom?
Then I’m with my mom on car. I get out to get something or someone and she goes park on some alley. Then I meet someone, wee talk for a while and then I realize she is taking too long so I go look for her. I feel I am becoming lucid, but I can’t move on to tasks without first finding my mother, because I’m worried about her. I wake up.

Casablanca (ToTY)
I go back into LD. I’m in a house and I look for some mirror. I cross one while thinking of the Casablanca ToTY and I land on the entrance of a bar. I pass a folding screen and find myself in a corridor. I spend some time there because there are some amazing paintings and sculptures that I observe, trying to memorize them. Specially a painting about some winged snake-like surrealistic creature, being ridden by some warrior and a sculpture of an abstract man with a sun and moon head. But I’m brought back to the present moment by some gentleman who is pointing me the way to enter the main room. I look inside and it is all in black and white, tables with candles in the centre, fancy dressed people sitting and listening to jazz music. I look like Ingrid Bergman in my hairstyle and clothes. But once I enter the room, the black and white becomes slowly colourful. I see a guy on the piano and a queue of at least four people who seem to be wanting to talk to him. I ask someone how can I speak to Sam and they point me the guy on the piano and say “You’ll have to wait for your turn.” But Sam was an old white guy with white hair and glasses. I said “That’s not Sam!”, but they insisted it was him, the famous Sam. “Ok, so I’ll ask him to play a song.” I didn’t feel like waiting for my turn and it was my dream anyway, so I passed in front of all the other people waiting and was about to talk to Sam, when he finished a song and got up in a very bad mood, complaining that there was too much people nagging him. Instead of him, I ended up talking to another guy who was his manager and told me I should write down my name on a waiting list and the song I wanted Sam to play. I realized I would not be able to hear him playing the song before the dream was over, so I wrote my name on the paper. I had serious difficulties, because all the pens they were handing me over did not write properly, but in the end I managed. I didn’t know what song to ask for, so I wrote down “whatever song you wish to play”, because I figured he was sick and tired of playing all the crazy stuff other people were asking.

Market in Denn (RPG task)
Then I leave the place and thing about the RPG task. I see a backdoor and imagine to be on Denn when I open it. I go to the other side and find myself inside some kind of warehouse. I look outside and this part of the town looks a bit like the wild west. I see a saloon, people in horses and a diligence. I don’t go outside, because on a side door I notice this warehouse connects to a market. It’s an indoors supplier market. It’s really early morning and they are preparing the boxes with food to be shipped to the merchants. I look for the strange fruit I’m supposed to find and I do see among pears and apples, a few boxes of something that looks like a mango, but with spikes. It looks like the picture posted by WakingNomad on DV, but it is not pink, it is reddish and yellowish like a mango. I feel it might be it, but I insist in looking around a bit more, to see if I find some other weirder fruit. I don’t, so I pick up one of those strange mangos. Unfortunately some guy appears complaining that I shouldn’t be there and escorts me out. He distracts me from my intent to eat the fruit and I wake up. Grrrrr…….

Fighting monster with love
Trying to avoid someone or something. I was already lucid, but can’t recall what had happened before. I just know I’m on a bus and outside there’s an hideous creature, half elephant, half octopus with a giant jaw-like mouth. It is crushing cars as it moves along the street and eating people’s guts. It’s horrific. And then it jumps and lands on top of the bus. People scream and try to run to the extremities of the bus. The monster opens the bus and enters on it. It shape-shifts into a more humanoid form. I feel confident I can beat it, and I think people around me notice that because they look at me hopeful that I will protect them. The monster comes to me, but instead of kicking it’s ass, I decide to try the “love approach”. I give it a hug (yuc). I realize the monster is female, because of its energy signature. I tell her we can be friends. She gets really confused and at the same time pleased. She just feels unloved and lonely. I still feel revulsion, because I can feel it’s deep down emotions and they are ugly. But I make an effort. The bus is stopped already for some time and the bus driver opens the door. We come out and walk together. I can read her thoughts and she is visualizing us together forever, all the time. I don’t like the idea so I explain to her “You know what being friends mean, right? We will go out sometimes, call each other once in a while, but we’re not supposed to be together all the time, that would be slavery.” (I joke) She asks me if we’re now going out somewhere. I reply I have no plan, but let’s just walk and talk. Then we cross some neighborhood and I see a couple of swings. I tell her “Why don’t we ride the swings together for fun?” She looks at me like “Are you kidding, that’s for babies.” But I hop in and swing higher and higher. She just stands in front of me, trying to figure out why is that fun. Then she transforms into a cloud of black ravens hovering in the sky in front of me. I hope it is a good sign. Then some ravens become black open umbrellas and then slowly all transform into dancers in the sky with black feathered wings, making a weird, dark, yet beautiful, group dance. I guess it’s the creature’s way to set her emotions free. Then she says she wants to eat “nam”. I have no clue what that is, but I interpret as Vietnamese food. We go to a Vietnamese restaurant and she is loving it! I enjoy watching them prepare strange dishes – I’ve never actually been to a Vietnamese. Then we become engulfed on a large party they are organizing on a backroom of the restaurant. Besides the amazing food we were about to choose to eat, they had a huge long table with all sorts of sweets and cakes. They were so kind and offered me to try anything I wanted. The party was only hours later, but they insisted that I take whatever I wanted. So then followed an orgy of cake eating. It feels so good, when you know it’s calories free!
