    1. 1 Jan: Encountering friends in the US and befriending Billie Eilish

      non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid FA / AP

      In the US. Scenes from a recurring dream where I think I am in Orlando, Florida. A lot of things happen, including being part of the audience of a Jeopardy show recording on a studio. On exit, they want to check everyone's papers and covid status. They ask me for a negative test and I complain that it makes no sense they ask for it at the end instead of before the show. I also remember someone telling me something about it and even handing me a test, but it was not mentioned at entrance and I totally forgot about it. I also was without mask all the time and nobody cared. The lady shrugs her shoulders and says it's ok. She puts a stamp on some paper anyway and offers me a few more tests for future occasions. I find it all very unprofessional and chaotic, but hey, it's Florida, right? Coming out of some escalators and turning around to go to another escalator, I see to my right, Gil and some other girl. They come from a hallway behind a glass door and he sees me and waves at me. I wave back but I keep walking past them, so once he opens the door, he complains "Won't you wait for me and say hi?". So I wait and we say hello properly. He asks what I am doing here and I say I am on a visit. He says he works here at the marine center. Then I also spot my friend Licas entering a cafeteria behind them. I say bye to them and go after her, mostly because I also need a coffee, but then we get together and leave together.
      Outside, on the streets, we get on a bus which drops us at an old town, which looks strangely like Lisbon center or downtown Porto, not at all a US city. We need to catch a second bus to our final destination, but my friend is hesitant because she is unsure which one is it and we almost get on the wrong one. Then I spot some people surrounding someone on the sidewalk and I notice it is Billie Eillish. When I am about to hop on another bus, I yell at her "Sorry, I don't mean to nag you like everybody else, but I am a fan from Portugal and wish you happyness and all the best." Turns out it wasnt the right bus either and my friend kicks me out of it again, resulting in an awkward situation in which I am basically jumping in front of Billie and blocking her way. The other fans scramble and she is with just 2 or 3 people of her own posse. She looks with her blasé look, like not amused, but then says "I know a portuguese girl, Lena D., she's a biologist" and I am like "No way! She was my colleague at the university, I know her well! You know she nows lives in the US?" Then I think "Stupid, that's probably how she knows her". But she doesn't react. She says "I am gonna follow you on facebook. A friend of a friend is my friend." And then she finally smiles and we start walking along and talking. I mention her music has been the sounddtrack of my life recently. Then we enter this bar or club with a great view over the old part of town on the hills and I say I am actually seeing the place where I am supposed to go and will probably just walk there. But my friend Licas who was with us, just went up some stairs of another building and disappeared. Billie asks about my friend, says her face is familiar and what's her name. Strangely, my friend is no longer Licas, she turned into that skinny gay boy I met through my friend Diana and I can't remember his name. She finds odd and funny that I can't remember his name and I am struggling with how my friend just changed gender and I can't remember his name.
    2. Competitive Streak

      by , 06-06-2014 at 01:06 PM
      I was in a classroom with a lot of other people and somehow instantiated a competition between me and a fellow computer scientist. A woman was standing before us and decided to ask us each a series of questions Jeopardy style (on a powerpoint appeared to be a Jeopardy board). We both agreed and the questions began:
      1. Name a program in Unix
      2. Why do people program

      For the first question I buzzed in quickly, as my partner didn't know anything, and said "grep, which is a regular expression tool to find..." or something similar. For the second question I responded, "To bring down the system, and similar." The subsequent questions had an additional property of being able to "own" whatever it is that you answered correctly. For example, the next question was of a girl dancing, and, while my opponent took a guess and failed, I decided not to answer as I was unsure of what to expect. I don't remember what the answer was (or if there was even a question), but I remember she was assigned a value of $60 for a date.

      After this I came up to a window, and tried making my old friends laugh. They were sitting on a spinning table, and I was outside peering in. In the case I remember, I had to make #9428-31 laugh, as well as #36. As they spun around, I would stare at them very seriously, and while #9428-31 maintained a straight face, #36 did not. As a result, #36 actually won and when I opened the door in between, I had to give #36 $200. As I opened the door though, a group of my friends came out, asking for an autograph. I remember writing on one of their forehead's in particular (that of #740-8421), which was incredibly pimply.

      I made it in and #9428-31 came and asked me to sign this piece of paper, which I did, as well as writing $200 on top. I realized I shouldn't have done that, since #36 won and told him this, to which he agreed. I noticed further down this room were people playing a variety of board games. Before going down that route, I explored the kitchenware and the shower, which were right next to each other and had no curtain. I washed my hands, remembering that the water each of us use was the same as in our dormitories. I turned around and walked back to where people were playing board games and saw #6412-91234 playing chess and #27-570214 playing #641-102 in a game of army men. #6412-91234 told me he was playing with the other two, but he didn't understand the game. My viewport jumped to them and became black and white, as one of their "army men" died, and simultaneously, #641-102 cut his finger with one of the pieces.
    3. 14th Shared Dreaming Attempt- Nonconformist's Dream

      NonConformist's Dream

      I am in this hotel, I'm Frodo, and Sam is with me. We're going up this elevator, but we're having trouble getting in. We both had just leveled up, and are able to change our skills. I get a skill called Admin, which lets me get a job promotion much easier. When the elevator stops, we get out, and there is a filing cabinet sitting there. It instantly opens, and something catches my eye. There is a file that says "Stephen Greer, UFO Phenomenon" though I don't get to look at it. I'm walking down the hall, and there is a tall Dutch/Welsh man named Hans there, along with 2 of his kids. In the room next to it, there is a business man there. Me and Sam go inside the room. The man is pretty shady, and I think that we were trying to steal something from him; a file or something. We tell him to follow us into another room, and Sam leads the way. Supposedly I have had a dream in this room before, and the business man and Sam were re-enacting it. I inched my way to the door, hoping that the man wouldn't notice, then ran over to his office. He did notice and ran after me, and I was caught. We were both standing in the doorway when Hans came over and decided to have a little 'talk' with the man. Hans came back with blood on his hand, and he told us we had better leave. We went back down the elevator, and out the door. Sam was now Edward, and I was my regular self. We were in a big business area that was outside, but it had a roof. There was a line for people who wanted to do jury duty. Ed said he wanted to wait in line, and I asked why, because there was a courtroom much closer to his house than this one. He walked away.

      I am in a Jeopardy game show, with 1 girl 1 guy and me. Instead of earning points for answering questions, you would earn a prize that was worth points, like a doughnut, or a sweater that was worth a million and 6 points. The other guy was very stupid and got kicked off the show, and it seemed as though the whole crowd was women. Then, there was this man named XX100 who came on the show, who supposedly had been on the show before. The host took up arms, which was an azure Katana and dagger. The 2 began fighting a mighty battle, and I felt as though I was controlling the host like a puppeteer does. Soon the host had XX on his knees. XX was in a full suit of armor, so he removed his helmet, but to his surprise, he was wearing a ski mask. 3 to be exact. It was like something out of Scooby Doo. When he was finally unmasked and you could see his face, he was a white man with a shaved head. He kind of looked Scottish. He began to say something, but for the life of me I barely remember dialogue.

      I am in this amusement park(maybe) and with a whole big group of people. We are going through the shower rooms, boys on one end and girls on the other, but it didn't really matter, because you could see each other and we were all equally naked. The dream didn't start off like this, but I can't remember any more.
