    1. Possible New Entrance to Mammoth Cave and Other Bits

      by , 10-17-2012 at 07:16 PM
      10-17-2012 -- [AAUUGGHH!! Bought some apple juice but forgot to drink before bed. Woke this morning with an interesting seeming dream, but couldn't remember more than half of it. Finally drank apple juice, then spent four hours trying to get back to sleep only to manage about one more hour, and a rather lousy dream during it! ]

      I'm pretty sure this started with a bit where I was at home at the Hickory house with my family, everything decorated for Christmas. Especially remember lots of silver wrapping and/or decorations. But that's all I can remember.

      Led somehow to something about the Hornet Newspaper and perhaps the college, but no details available. Soon I found myself traveling with Dale to Disney World or something. I think we were in the park, but there's nothing there. No details. Soon we are outside, and are going to drive somewhere. Dale has this weird rig set up which is something like a pick-up pulling a camper, pulling a boat, and the camper is sort of flipping down to seal Kevin inside for the drive.

      I think there is something that kind of resembles Knott's Jungle Island, except it quickly turns to some sort of Polynesian themed resort that happens to be in the middle of Mammoth National Park. Some guy is walking next to the tennis court, planning to get something from his cellar (which is oddly under a palm tree by the court) but when he goes down the ladder to the cellar, he doesn't come up again.

      His wife or girl friend is starting to worry, and glances into the cellar, but a recent earthquake or such has cracked the foundation and leads into a new cave entrance. He's gone in and gotten lost, and his wife is freaking out about how he could have gotten lost in what must obviously be a very small cave if it has never been found before.

      I am trying to explain to her that they've discovered that almost all the caves in the world are almost certainly connected if you get deep enough into them, and if you could find ways through flooded and collapsed passages, and she doesn't believe me. "How unlikely is that?!?" [In truth I take it too far. There is a very good chance that almost all caves in the part of Kentucky where Mammoth is located, the entire area under the Central Kentucky Karst, could be connected through passageways that people haven't yet found, but very unlikely that they go beyond that karst region.]

      I'm trying to explain how Mammoth became the largest mapped cave in the world because of all the connections found between Mammoth, Morrison, Salt Cave, Crystal Cave and so on, but she just doesn't believe me. Thankfully there is an information desk at the hotel, and I am asking them to help me explain. Among other things they have a very thick guidebook that is actually the three Roger Brucker books bound into one larger volume, and I am trying to get the info desk person to read about some of the connections listed in the second book, Beyond Mammoth Cave.

      Soon I find myself at an airport with B & C and some others. B & C are heading somewhere, and lots of us have come to see them off. Almost everybody else has already said goodbye and wandered off, but I figure I might as well stay with them to the gate. But B seemed opposed to this idea, so I wander off on my own and start out of the airport, only to find I still need to go through security.

      I make it through the security check point to find myself on a deck area that doesn't start out as one, but seems to turn into an aircraft carrier or something. I see what first seems to be low-flying odd planes shooting by, but soon turns into almost a sort of centrifuge test thing to check on pilot stresses, g-forces and the rest. This thing seems to have four capsules on four arms swinging in a circle with only one above the water at any one time.

      Soon there are two of them, one on each side of the ship, and as one is loading up soldiers to train and test, the other is letting them out. The ones being loaded up are all young, fit and the picture of health. The ones being released are in bad shape. Old, out of shape, either fat or skin and bones. Parts of one seem to be an actual skeleton, while others are missing limbs. Whatever they are training for, the training seems incredibly rough!

      ---

      Bonus, since it is not worth posting on it's own. I am sitting in a bedroom at a table, playing with my computer. I am playing some sort of game that involves collecting small blue gems that kind of look like the shatter pattern of a bullet through glass, or maybe making them. As time goes on, it is certainly making them, except it turns to making them out of a play doh-like or gum-like substance in real life, while sitting in front of the computer.

      Whatever this stuff I am making is now in purple as well as blue, and it is something that I am taking to help me remember dreams. But a few of the bits have fallen off the back of the desk onto the floor, and I decide I should collect them. To try and climb under the space under the table, I have to move a box fan, but there still isn't room, so I have to try and shift my bed and a large (but low) bookcase as well. A lot of work. When I get under the table, I find several bits of the 'stuff' that has fallen, including a couple that have been down here for months and are covered in dust. I decide I'm not going to try and swallow those, and throw them away.

      As I come back out from under the desk, Rosemary is bugging me to clean my room ... I just did, woman! I need to go to the bathroom, but as I am walking up to it, there is a handyman walking out. He has a sign on the door showing he is working on the toilet, so it is not available. I figure I will use the other restroom, but when I walk to the door of it, is is nothing but a huge hole in the floor. For some reason they seem to have removed the entire bathroom.

      Walking back to ask Rosemary about this, I find the dogs have been stuck inside, and in the last two minutes they have virtually covered the floor in dog poop. Yuck! Nothing but problems and fails in this dream!
    2. Weather in China

      by , 08-26-2012 at 11:26 PM
      Taking lunch in the University courtyard which I often dream of (not the real one). Become aware of a pilgrimage of Western soldiers through China, from SW to NE, as some form of protest. Started to watch a news report on the subject, which was presented like a weather report, with a puppet weatherman standing in front of a map of China covered with yellow McDonald's symbols of varying size, probably representing cities. Reporter showed path of soldiers, and where they were taking refuge in a small country, isolated in the middle of China. Report of some being abducted from sanctuary country by Chinese government. Reporter went on to talk about commercialisation of mainland China, indicating McDonald's symbols.
    3. Night 4 + 5: Almost nothing of value..

      by , 08-08-2012 at 04:03 PM (The Nightflare Chronicles..)
      Ok, so, REALLY bad recalls recently- I've got next to nothing. I can remember a few keywords but no specific events or details.

      ***NIGHT $ FRAGMENTS***
      I'm cycling long distance; I enter an abandoned 'haunted' house with my sister (That's the odd bit; I don't actually have any siblings) and meet a bald man wandering around. We tell him to go into a cupboard and lock the door. He then goes crazy until we let him out
      ***END***

      ***NIGHT 5 FRAGMENTS***
      I'm walking along a cliff with my father, and we meet a man carrying a branch with strawberries hanging from it. I then find myself at an ice-cream shop, and a girl is trying to barter there. She is offering an army of rhodok soldiers (I have apparently been playing Mount & Blade too much recently) for some ice-cream, but can't afford any; I tell her that's why rhodok is no good. I'm then walking up a mountain.
      At some other point in the dream I'm in a furniture store with my cousin.
      ***END***

      Dream recall, why do you vex me so?
    4. Zombie Evolution

      by , 06-18-2012 at 07:45 PM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      Some sort of zombie attack. We were in an old building. There were slow zombies. But they easily adapt to problems, until they became fast zombies, and even climbing zombies. Eventually, almost everyone were zombies, including some characters from D.Grayman.

      The rest of us tried to avoid them as much as we can. Until we reached a boat run by Japanese soldiers and scientists. It seems they have discovered that the zombies can't bend down from their waist, so they partially closed the upper part of the boat/jeep that we were going to ride.

      It's started to close for real, so we ran for it. My friends and I made it. We were able to escape to other places where there were none or at least fewer zombies.

      One day, I was walking and found a "zombie escape hatch." It's basically a huge pipe that can fit a human body, twisting all over inside and below a building, with enough handles to climb or hang on to.

      But they weren't made for climbing. They're elaborate traps against zombies, but only those who are acrobatic or athletic enough can pass through it. Zombies will basically get ripped to shreds trying to chase a person through it. I tried it out, and I "acrobated" my way into the inner area.

      While doing so, I heard the voice of an old lady, who I suspected was a zombie. I thought it's a good way to find out if this works. Then I saw her inside. She actually made it through that maze-pipe trap. But she wasn't able to jump off the last part. She said something like she can't survive the fall. Then a guy entered the scene. She called the old lady grandma, but he's a living human. He has long, white hair, reaching some way below the shoulders, and a light, silvery clothing. It's kinda anime-ish, but he looks "real," and a Caucasian.
    5. There's Your Reason, Corset and Boobies, Sniper Mission, Call of Duty, Heart Rate and #2

      There's Your Reason.... (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      My father buys this new fancy silver car, and I get to go out for a test drive on it. The setting is late at night, and I go inside of the vehicle to start it, but it's moving on it's own.

      Aw crap.

      I try to stabilize the vehicle, and I realize it's already over the bump and on the grass instead of the road. I couldn't do anything about it, because it somehow magically bumps to the side.

      I get out to look at the vehicle for any kind of damage, seems like everything is okay. My father comes out of nowhere to check the vehicle, and it looks at the front, and I look at the front.

      For a few seconds, I look at this girl in front of me wearing a blue shirt, dark blue jeans, and she looks a lot like Christina from my college. She looks at me for a while, and then looks down.

      I don't know where she's looking at though, probably the car next to me, but during that time, I didn't know where the car was because I was surprised she appeared.

      While he has his back facing me with his knees on the ground to check the front of the vehicle, I look at the bottom of the front again, and there's some pretty bad damage done to it.

      I notice this before my father does, and when he's cognizant of it, he gets up and asks for a reason why this happened.

      I was stuttering because I was in a mental conflict on deciding whether or not I should tell him that the vehicle moved by itself (which it did), or just shrug and say I don't know and take whatever verbal nonsense hes going to spew out ot me.

      He keeps pestering me on what happened, and his tone gets even more serious.

      My words get even shorter, I can't even think properly, saturated with fear and being forced to make a decision with him........

      My voice gets deeper and even more serious, and I just give him a piece of my own mind and essentially told him to just go screw himself.

      I walk out of there without looking back.

      Sucks when you try to tell the truth to your father in your dreams, and yet that same truth is obviously going to considered a lie.

      That's dream logic for you......

      Light Green Corset and Boobies (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID



      I just remember a pair of breasts half covered with a light green corset, and it's an actual female in front of me too.

      Go dream mind!

      Anyway, even though I didn't see the lady's face, or couldn't recall seeing her face, I think she wore a white lab coat over the corset, but she made sure the corset was the eye-candy here for me. She's really close to me.

      While I'm sitting there in first person perspective feeling awkward but ready to do almost anything once I break free from that, the lady breaks the awkward moment and tells me,

      "These never break...."

      I think she's groping her breasts, or maybe I am? I can't remember, but whatever actually happened, it was probably her breasts that she was talking about, and not the corset she's wearing.

      This really sucks you know, boobies right in front of me.

      Sniper Mission (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID



      I'm on a huge cliff, a very huge cliff side. The overall setting of the landscape is green, almost felt like a jungle that had an waterfall cave if I jumped off the starting point.

      But doing that would probably get me killed, and I don't mean the gravity, I meant the several soldiers that had the light faded swamp-ish camouflage outfits with automatic weapons.



      The sky is blue, barely any clouds, nice day isn't it?

      Nice day to assassinate someone Link.

      I don't know how the hell I accepted this task, and I know this isn't something I would do just for fun and a thrill, I don't really like those kinds of risky situations where I only have a sniper rifle while at least 10-20 soldiers have automatic weapons.

      My mission was simple, hide behind some natural greenery on top of a cliff, and then shoot the soldier who is currently putting someone on a choke hold that looks completely innocent.

      Then again, with 10-20 soldiers, I don't think they would form together if it was just your average joe. I waste no time stalling, I take aim with the sniper, and try to take things slowly and not rush.

      I take a shot, and I miss. Hm.......

      No one is out to shoot me as yet? Guess this sniper rifle must be silenced! Sweet!

      This tempts me to be a little more sporadic, bad move....

      I shoot two more times and miss....then things get a little hectic. One or more of the soldiers saw the rebound on the ground where the bullet hit, and they all start looking around to see where it came from.

      I can't remember what I did next to get myself out of that situation, but the dream resets itself to where I'm back on top of the cliff again.

      Oh, and about the cliff, it had a semi-circular walkway, so that means that if I shoot in one spot, I can go at some other arch and take a shot. But of course, that isn't really enough to promote more failures though, but it was better than nothing.

      Instead of going back to the same plan of just shooting the same soldier holding someone in a choke hold, or whatever they're doing, I take a moment to stop and stand up for a while.

      All of the soldiers are looking in one direction, all of them have their backs facing me, so this means that the area I'm in, it must be a dead-end, so it makes sense that the soldiers would take for granted of not adding extra security around this mini semi-circular cliff.

      Oh well, better opportunity for me to abuse that advantage of mine.

      I think for a little while, and decided that since I have to kill one person, shouldn't I just kill everyone else so they won't be a distraction in case I miss a few shots again?

      All soldiers are 10-30 (give or take) feet away from the guy holding the hostage or whoever it was, so this gives me more than enough time to do several actions at once.

      I get some grenades, and since the soldiers are split into three groups, I quickly throw one grenade for each section that's split off.



      Then I run like a little bitch for cover.

      BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOM EXPLOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSION.

      I expected some gunfire as a form of retaliation, but I pretty much killed off the all the men except one.

      I quickly duck and grab my sniper rifle to aim at the guy, but even when I'm shooting, I'm still missing!

      What is going on?!?!?! I keep shooting, and by this point, I think the weapon I had was some kind of modded sniper rifle that was automatic, or at least had less recoil and delay time to where it felt semi-automatic.

      The guy isn't going down, something is wrong here. I throw grenades to kill off all of the men supporting him in case things go wrong, and I can't snipe properly?

      The guy doesn't know where I am, but he's really starting to get pissed at me. He slowly walks up, and I'm a little shocked that he's coming in to give me a better shot at him, but no time to stop and stare, I move a little to the right of the semi-circular cliff, almost to the end.

      I aim the sniper rifle at him again, this time, while his back is facing me. This doesn't feel right, to shoot someone at the back of their head, but whatever, he's going to kill me if I don't do something.

      I swear I had good aim with this sniper rifle, and I even tried putting my aiming sights a good 3-4 inches on the area he's most likely to walk towards to and shoot 1-2 seconds before he gets there as well.

      THAT DOESN'T WORK EITHER.

      I can't remember anything else, other than a dream shift to another dream that gave me a few lulz0rs now that I think about it....

      Call of Duty: World At War Dome Map Ownage (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID



      I'm at the Dome map in the COD:WAW, though most of the dream had the Wii graphics, which means the enemy soldiers would have some parts of their face faded out....in other words, horrible graphics.

      Anyway, it had that multiplayer-esque kind of feeling to it. I start out in the match by throwing grenades at possible area that people might be in to get a few quick kills from the start. Then I realize the other side is doing the same thing.



      Why do I know that? Because there's a flash grenade the lands RIGHT next to my right foot.

      Crap. RUN!!!

      I manage to shift my field of vision away from the flash, but I still have a slightly diluted pitched hearing for a few seconds, and in front of me, a cloud of smoke appeared already. I knew that some people were behind that to use for cover.

      Instead of staying in one spot trying to shoot at the smoke, which would give the other side the opportunity to spray and pray and somehow hit me, I go into the smoke and take out a knife and stab everyone in it. These people are complete noobs, but better than me being dead I guess.

      Then I go down the stairs, and I go behind that little statue where the little gaps for surprise attacks will be. I see two or three more noobs all stacked together of easy kills, with their backs facing me.



      Wow, is it just me, or have people in these set of dreams I've had have their backs facing me? Meh, not going to interpret that, because interpretation is too subjective.

      I stab all of them for easy kills, and I practically go bat shit crazy with the cockiness, feeling like no one in this team is going to be able to kill me. Then I see a fast movement on the right side of my peripheral vision, and I quickly get serious and turn around.

      Seems there's one enemy that is using common sense in multiplayer shooting match. I think I did a side flip (you can't even do that in the game lmao, what the hell, I'm a hax0rs) to dodge his gunshots, and I think I shoot him.

      I can't remember much after that, but there's one more dream shift that takes another 180 in terms of making sense.

      Your Heart Rate = How you do #2???? (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      This dream was so stupid at the end.

      Anyway, I think I'm just spectating on what's happening, though I've had moments where I felt I was in the experience. There's a guy who's facing two men, both of them are black, and really good with weapons.

      The guy is having a hard time dodging most of their shots, because when they run out of weapons, they immediately switch to another weapon, and the guy who is trying to avoid and shoot them only has hand guns on him.

      There's room that if you go into it, there's going to be a lot of close quarters firing, so one little mistake could be the end of your life. The guy with only hand guns, who is Caucasian I believe, goes inside of the room.

      The black guy runs out of ammo from his hand gun I believe, which lets the white guy have some time to calm down before the next move is played. But NOPE, the black guy gets a shotgun out, the more modern ones, not the stereotypical red-neck shotguns.

      The Caucasian male literally screams in disappointed, "AWWW SHIT!!!"

      The black guy shoots, but misses, and the Caucasian male dashes like hell because the other guy has to reload between every shot I believe.

      Then the dream has a weird twist to it. The Caucasian male goes up to the black guy and does that "WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT" gesture with his arms, and the black guy puts down his weapon to see what's up.

      The Caucasian male shows the black guy a sheet protected with some plastic (forgot what you call those things, something protectors?).

      And on the sheet were different numbers of heart rates. The font was black, and the columns that lined up those numbers had a red background behind them with a black border on each rectangle containing the numbers.

      The Caucasian male says something about not getting his heart rate up because it affects how he takes a shit?

      Um.....okay........................

      That's all I remember, and thank god that's all I remember for that one.

      And what did I learn from that dream? Absoluteeellllllllllllllly NOTHING.

      Wow, my recall is getting a little decent now.
    6. Mountain Hike

      by , 05-14-2012 at 01:40 PM
      Some kids were going around the neighborhood destroying property. They broke branches off my tree and made a mess. I ran outside, seen them, and yelled at them. Somehow I ended up babysitting them. They were a pain but gradually got better. At least I had a dream wife to help me with them.

      Next dream was about studying in a bowling alley, although I didn't really see the bowling lanes. Many students at desks though, it probably was a college course. I wasn't really studying all that much, but later on a military drill was performed by soldiers who burst into the building, and captured it. There were defending soldiers as well, but they lost of course. They didn't use real ammo, it was just a drill. I could tell they were serious about it though, and I stayed out of their way. I had went out into the hallway to see what the commotion was.

      Later on my dream changes and I am hiking up a mountain slope with 3 guys. I know them just in the dream somehow as friends, even though they are just random DCs. We come to this point where we stop and talk about if we should continue on or turn back, because the climb was about to get difficult. The biggest guy in our group insists we go on, seems he has some personal reasons for doing so. I have noticed that I have been wearing this watch. The watch is picking up a signal, it is a woman talking through my watch. I don't catch what she says though, but my big friend hears it. We both look at the watch I'm wearing and we see it is some type of "modern" spy watch. He says it is a "Star Trek watch." He is able to take some information it is displaying and can calculate our position. After he is done, he starts leading the way up the trail for our group. We come to this snow pack which has a steep climb, I know I climb to the top before waking up.
    7. Brush with Lucidity

      Brush with Lucidity

      I was on some a team of soldiers. We wore black, and so did the enemy. It was only pretend, but it became real.

      The enemy had machine guns while my side had gloves that could shoot out of the fingers. We were facing off with the enemy when we all decided to take a deep breath and think over what was happening.

      We all slowed it down and backed off a little. I wished I could float to make a smooth, quiet retreat, so I said to a friend, "I wish we were lucid."

      My friend said, "Lift your thumb!" The idea was that if we were lucid, lifting a thumb should give us the lift we needed to levitate, then we could move backwards in flight.

      I lifted my thumb, but it didn't work. Another brush with lucidity that absolutely failed.
    8. 20th Shared Dreaming Attempt - Aeolar's Dream

      by , 08-20-2011 at 04:55 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Aeolar's Dream

      I am with this kid named "Old Mike", with whom I have had really good connections with recently. We were watching football, outside for some reason, and Mike began to be surprised. He was recognizing certain people in the game, although he had no previous knowledge of them, and at one point he said that he could almost see himself throwing the ball in the game. I told him to try it, and he said he did it. I was impressed. I guess I just decided to go to sleep on the ground outside, and what felt like soon after, Mike woke me up and told me "30 seconds" which instantly I knew that we were leaving. Mike went inside, and I waited outside for a while. I went inside, wondering what was taking him, and Mike was standing in the staircase, staring at nothing.
      "What are you doing?" I asked him.
      "I had just tuned in to a talent show where a man was hypnotizing people. It was one of my top 10 shows." He replied.
      We then went outside, and got into the car. Mike then turned into my Dad, and we pulled out of the driveway and turned right. Instantly we were on a highway, and Dad was commenting, saying that
      "The I-8 lower is much less crowded, because almost everyone uses the I-8 higher." The higher was up in the air. We took a wide left turn, and I saw these huge concrete barriers in the road, dividing the lanes into sections for individual cars. I thought that they looked similar to the start of a pinball game, but Dad thought that they looked like the escalators in Modern Warfare 2. We got into the far right lane, barely, and the highway sloped down at about a 50 degree angle. We drove down it extremely fast, but when we got to the second part, there was a chain in the middle that we didn't see until it was too late. There was a sign on the chain that said "Do not Exit/Enter" and when we hit the chain, it seemed only to hit our bodies, and at the speed we were going, the chain was pulled backwards like a rubber band, and then turned the car a little, but we were safe. We both were happy that the car was OK, and we stopped at this large commerce area. We got out of the car, and start walking to this set of stairs. Dad is walking rather quickly and is ahead of me, and walks up the stairs.

      Suddenly, I see 2 special ops soldiers run after him. I knew that they had thought that there was a security breach, and that terrorists were inside. I noticed a man to my left with a bone mic in his right ear, and his finger in his ear giving orders, and saw that he was of importance. As we were walking, I spoke up.
      "We're not terrorists." I said,
      To which the man replied, "What?"
      I repeated myself. "We're not terrorists. It was just me and my Dad. We took a wrong turn."
      The man does the :O face, and repeats what I just said into the mic. I see Dad turn a corner, and he tells me that we're leaving. We are going into town. I think to myself, "Whatever" and get into the car. When we get to town, we stop in an art gallery. I noticed that a painting called "The Great War" wasn't there. Dream fades.
      -----------------
      I am in a town similar to Nuketown in CoD, and there is another boy there. This boy had found the secret to either unlimited chicken or candy, maybe both. (LMAO! xD) Either way, I am trying to steal it from his backpack without him noticing. The boy is lying down, watching the middle of the street. I sneak around the right, and eventually make it into his bag. I see a birds eye view of him getting up and walking over to where I am, nonchalantly. I eat as much candy/chicken as possible, and cover up the stuff I pulled out of his bag. He sees me and his eyes brighten. He has blonde hair and looks like little Christian.
      "Hey! What's up?"
      I'm stunned, and before I could sputter something out, the boy turns around after grabbing his bag, and walks into a house that was behind him. I follow him, and inside I see Bri and Heidi. They are talking about something, I can't remember what. I do remember Bri saying,
      "Heidi, will you please stfu?" I was surprised because she usually never says that. Then, we start talking about Piano and begin walking to the door. I turn around, and see an open doorway that is covered with large crystals that act as a "door", and a woman with long brown hair, standing there, tapping individual crystals with her hands, and the result are beautiful noises. For some reason I thought this was another form of piano, and I asked her,
      "How do you know to play?"
      "What I'm playing is easy. The actual song I'm playing off of has tempo and beats, but I just play the notes rapidly, and it sounds good enough." She replies.
      ---------------
      Fragment: I am in a huge grass field, with a giant hill in the background. I am talking to 3 other people, telepathically maybe. There was also a lighthouse.
      -------------------
      I am at school, and I am talking to Adriana. It's the first day of school, and I forgot my ID card. Adriana thinks that I'm gonna get a detention for that. I don't stress it. A teacher comes up, and asks how we're doing. I say that
      "I'm doing fine, I was able to sleep in today. I was able to just roll over and pass out when I woke up the first time."
      "What time do you usually get up?" She asks quizzically.
      "Around 6:00 AM." I reply.
      "Wow,"
      "That's the island for ya."
      She walks away, and this cute brown/black haired girl walks up to us. She's really attractive; her hair is cut medium-length, almost a bowl cut. She starts teasing me, poking me and stuff. I bear hug her, and try to take her down, but I end up taking myself down first. I land on the asphalt in this parking lot area, and she lands on top of me. Adrianna comments sarcastically,
      "You know your masculine when you can't take a girl down."
      I roll over and get up quickly, and she's still on the ground. I boast,
      "Masculine? I'll show you masculine!"
      I pick her up from her back and legs and hold her close to me. I let her down slowly onto the nearby curb, and we laugh and look into each others eyes. Wow, are we in love. I look to my right, and see Jose over on the sidewalk. I motion over to him, and he comes. We talk for a while, and he & I throw stuff at each other and mess around until the dream fades.
      -----------------------
      I am on an island in Hawaii. I am on the coast, and I can see two other islands nearby. There are people with me, but that's not the point. As I am looking at these islands, I see typhoons form on the water, two of them, each moving toward different islands. The first one moves to the right, and makes destruction in the rainforests, ripping out plant and wildlife. The second one goes to the left, and when it hits land, I see huge trucks fly out into the Pacific, with boats attached to them. Then, I see all the power go out on the left island. I pray that the typhoons don't hit us too. Dream skip. I am at the beach, and I am awestruck by how deep the ocean is.
      --------
      I am a hostage, and I am in this cargo bay, which is on the water. I am trying to escape, but to no avail. There are Indian Pirates all over. I know that my family is also being kept hostage, and my aim is to rescue them.

      non-lucid , dream fragment
    9. Bodies everywhere

      by , 06-29-2011 at 10:06 PM (Visions in the Dark)
      The dream starts off with me walking through a field. There is a thick and heavy fog and I cannot even see the ground under my feet but I can feel it - it is very bumpy and unstable, like I am walking on frozen pillows or something, if that makes any sense. I am walking up a slight incline and the fog recedes a bit when I reach the top.

      The unstable ground I am walking on is covered with thousands of bodies as far as the eye can see. There are so many bodies and they are piled on top of each other so high that I cannot see any natural ground at all. Most of the bodies are men in green or grey uniforms but there are also women and children laying about. Despite all of the dead bodies, many of which are in various states of decay, I don't remember smelling the rot around me.

      In front of me is a small pond. There are bodies in the water but not as many as on the ground and the water is a dark reddish brown because it is filled with blood and rotting flesh. I walk past the pond and to the other side of the hill, but it is slow going because stepping across the mounds of bodies is difficult. The fog has lessend, but there are still bodies as far as the eye can see and I cannot get away from them no matter how far I go.
    10. My Future Wife?

      by , 06-17-2011 at 07:59 PM
      This one is hard for me to trace back. I remember going into a cafeteria at my old school desert mountain. I went to the cafeteria, they needed to see my ASU ID for my to eat there. I had some cash on me and was going to buy a two dollar breakfast. The guy asking for my card said he'd give me two bucks if I didn;t have it. Austin was there I believe. I had my breakfast, there was a girl working there who mentioned she could get morphine. I inquired about what else she could get, she said adderall. I told her I wanted some she said she would help me get some after work. I waited around then she started saying something about borrowing money from the cafeteria register to loan to her dealer and that he would pay it back. I thought this was a terrible idea. I ended up meeting her dealer at the school, I didn't like him. I remember grabbing his head all dexter status and yelling in his face that he was a terrible person and he manipulates people and that I would take care of him. He grabbed my head and forced me to the ground, his thumbs were suppose to be gouging my eyes, but they weren't quite doing that.

      I don't know what happened next but I remember kids in the cafeteria, camping out, sleeping on the ground, some of them were doing sexual things. I pointed to these stairs that ran to the roof, we could hear weird noises outside. Some kids went up those stairs to investigate. I don't know when I realized I was dreaming, but I remember walking up those same stairs to see where they went. While walking up I had one hand on the rail, another on the wall, I felt like I was barefoot. I could feel several different textures simultaneously. I remember just stopping for a second to feel everything because it was so amazing that I could feel so many textures at once in my dream.

      I went outside to find a bunch of 1940s soldiers fighting a war. I started running down the street, trying to get myself up to incredible speeds. I'd come to signs that I tried jumping like hurdles. I was hesitant about it, and this hesitance caused me to bounce off these signs, even though I cleared them with some really high jumps.

      I don't remember what happened next, the next thing I remember is being in a house. I remember my dream going black a couple times and then coming back so maybe this is what happened. I decided I wanted to practice flying, so I find some soft carpet to make me feel comfortable practicing over. I jump and lay my body horizontally to try to get it to hover. At first I'm actually having some success. I get a little bored and decide to explore this huge house. I shout asking if anyone is home. Eventually I came to a room and inside were two children, a little boy and a little girl. To the right of them is this oldish looking woman. She looked old in the face region, although it was changing, but she had a nice body. I remember something really creepy happening with the children, but I have no idea what it was, I feel like they did or said something demonic.

      Also while exploring the house, I noticed that in every room there was a television that was on. In the larger office like room that I practiced in, there was a computer that was on playing music. I remember trying to get on youtube on it to see if I could get it to play any song that I wanted, but I couldn't get it to access the internet. Back to the room with children though, I decided to have sex with the woman, and the kids were gone. Her face was doing weird things so I put it under the mattress or the sheet or something while we had sex. I actually acheived having sex without collapsing my dream, but to my dissappointment it felt even worse than real sex. Probably because in a dream it's even more psychological and I wasn't that into it. I could feel it somewhat, but like every feeling in a dream, it was dull.

      When I finished having sex with her, I pulled my dick out and it was bright red, I assumed it was covered in blood. I thought weird, she must be a virgin. When she took her head out from under whatever, she was now young and kind of cute. She was pissed that I had put her head under something. We went out into the kitchen and she told me that she was leaving me. She said she couldn't waste another 15 years of her life with me. I decided fuck this bitch, and was going to go back to trying to fly. I found the same room, it was weird the rooms didn't seem to change. I began practicing, but this time had no success. I tried to imagine a force pushing me up, but it was no use.

      I walked out of my room and there was an old man standing with his back to me. I pushed him because I thought my wife was cheating on me with him (jealousy is an instinctual impulse apparently, only inhibited by logic, which I didn't have) . He turned around and looked like a 60-70 year old version of my dad's friend Bernie. He wasn't there to get with my wife. He said to me, "In the year 2011, America turns down making billions by killing billions and instead loses billions." My wife was sitting on the couch and said she doesn't know if that's true, you can never trust those East Hollywood Types. I felt like my dream was giving me a glimpse of the future, I looked at my wife, she didn't seem angry anymore. She was pretty. She had dark hair, and a tattoo on her right shoulder that went down to just above her forearm. It was all black, no color. I had been thinking during my whole dream, holy shit this dream has lasted forever, and it made me worry a little bit. Right after looking at my wife though, it came to an end. There's so many things I left out because I couldn't remember, this dream was truly something else.
    11. let dogs loose and plane crash

      by , 06-05-2011 at 04:08 AM
      I was walking the dogs at a military installation. I noticed that the periphery was surrounded by a tall chain-link fence. We got to an area with a wide open field and I thought it would be a good place to let the dogs run. So I took them off their leashes. Shortly after that, I noticed groups of children up on the hill. They were all around the same age and I realized that there must be an elementary school over the ridge. I didn't want to disturb them or frighten them, so I decided I had better get the dogs away from there. I looked around for them and they were at the far side of the field. Good, they were not near the children. I made my way over to where they were. When I had almost caught up to them, they ran into a housing area. There were several other dogs in the street where my dogs had gone. I was getting ready to call them back to me when a black pit bull attacked Bongo. He had him pinned down on the ground. I decided I had better stay back and call them from where I was at, because the other two might also be attacked if we were in their territory. I ran a few yards back and then called them. Two dogs came scrambling up to me. They were both friendly, but neither of them were mine so I shoed them away and called some more. Another dog came up to me. I was looking up at the time because I was distracted by a noise. I clipped the leash onto the dog. There were several helicopters in the sky and a couple of airplanes. Then another airplane came into view that was spinning out of control. There was no doubt that it was going to crash. I ran to get a better view. I had to pull the dog with me, because he did not want to follow. A building obstructed my view, so continued to run toward an openning, trying to keep the plane in view, all the while pulling the dog behind me. I got one more glimpse of the plane before it was out of sight. I finally made it to the clearing, but the plane was nowhere in sight. It must have gone down somewhere behind the trees to my left. The dog was still pulling backward. This was not typical behavior for my dogs. I looked behind me to see which one it was and was surprised to find out it was not my dog. No wonder why he was not cooperating. Then, I looked around at the field I was standing in. There were groups of soldiers working around big crates. some were digging with shovels and others were trying to pry the crates open. The helicopters were now leaving the area. They must have delivered the crates. Obviously I was observing a training exercise. End of dream.
    12. 3 of 3 - May 10th, 2011

      by , 05-10-2011 at 11:27 PM (Visions in the Dark)
      I am in some sort of alternate universe where technologies are mainly the same but humans live in feudal societies and tame and ride dragons rather than drive cars. I am secretly a princess of a lost dynasty and the last of my family's bloodline. I have long black hair, pale skin and blood red eyes, which are traits of my royal family's genetics, though most people do not realize this. I have been rasied as a commoner by an adoptive family in a place called Moon City but civil war breaks out and we are forced to flee.

      My adoptive mother, brothers and I go to the main city of the continent to stay with some family and friends. Politics is tumoltuous in this city and it is ruled by an authoritorian leader who controls every aspect of the citizen's lives. Every night there is a curfew at sunset and people caught outside after it is implemented are arrested or killed by the security force loyal to the iron fisted leader. It is not as bad as it sounds though and as long as people obey the rules and don't openly oppose the leader then they can live their lives otherwise normally.

      The house we go to is at the end of an alley and only has three bedrooms for almost 10 people to stay in. I get stuck sharing a bed with my brothers and one of my friends. All of the older people are up all night talking about the war in Moon City and I cannot sleep because I am in a strange place and the talk of the older folk worries me so. In the morning my mother, grandmother and aunts go shopping and I wander the neighbourhood to orient myself with my new home. I find a vast, white sand beach and happily dig my bare feet in the sand and dip my toes in the cool water. In the distance I see a handsome young man watching me enjoy the beach. He is sitting on a large black and purple dragon and gazes on me with a withering smile. I do notice him but I pretend not to and ignore him.

      Afterwards I am walking along a marketplace and find a used bookstore. I spend a long time browsing the books and I am so happy and content that I kind of get carried away and forget about the time. I finally buy a book and start reading it on the way home. I am walking slowly and so intrigued with my book that I do not notice the sun beginning to set and the streets becoming empty. I finally snap out of my reverie when I am at the far end of the alleyway where my grandma's house is and though I am kind of scared I know that I do not have very far to go. I begin walking briskly but I do not notice the four or five patrol officers appear behind me riding thier massive green and black dragons.

      One of them yells at me and when I turn around they all jump off their dragons and force my back up against a wall. They begin shoving me and demanding to see identification and when I produce my passport they throw it on the ground and begin harassing me for not being a native citizen. They ignore my fearful protests and two of them grab me, turn me around so that my back is facing them and pin me to the wall. Another of the guards starts frisking me roughly and inappropriately by putting his hand under my skirt and rubbing between my legs. I try to scream but one of the guards covers my mouth with a gloved hand and they all start laughing and cajolling me as the assault continues.

      Suddenly a voice shouts down the alleyway and the offending guards snap to attention and let me go. The young man who had been watching me on the beach approaches, riding his mighty purple and black dragon, and demands to know if the soldiers have anything better to do than harass young girls. One of the soldiers starts to stammer and answer but the young muscular man shouts at them that this kind of thing is not what his father is paying them for and he screams at them to beat it, which they do with much haste.

      He gets off his dragon, picks up my passport from the ground and asks me if I am all right. I kind of glare at him with anger and indignation. How the hell does he think I feel after being sexually assaulted? The young man can see they I am distraught, laughs at himself and conceeds that it was a stupid question. He introduces as Mordred and tells me that he is the son of the man who rules this city. He looks over my passport and then seems to inspect me withis sharp and intense gaze before handing my id back. He asks me a few questions about why I left Moon City and I answer as I can.

      He offers to escort me home but I am suspicious and worried that he will take advantage of me too. I am able to tell him that my grandmother's place is just down the street and we walks with me there, his dragon following closely behind. The young man gives me a cell phone and tells me that I can call him on it at any time if anyone else gives me trouble while I am in his city. After he sees be home and bids me goodnight I watch him ride his dragon away through one of the few windows in the house.

      I do not tell my family what happened and the next day I stick very close to my mom and aunts as they travel to a large multi-storey mall for some shopping. I don't know why but it soon seems that I am there by myself and wander past the shops slowly and with much disinterest. I come across a food gallery of sorts but the dream distorts somewhat and while I can see the kind of food being served, I cannot read the menus and names of the food stores for some reason. Near one store that looks like a Taco Bell, I find a glass display case with many little ancient egyptian crafts and I spend some time admiring a little statue of a seated goddess Sekhmet.

      A voice suddenly announces over the intercome that sunset will happen in about an hour and everyone is advised to go home. I am on the second floor of the mall and head towards an elevator, trying to avoid the man people scrambling around as if in a panic. I come across one elevator and there is a stroller nearby with a baby in it, but no adults in sight. I don't know what to do so I just get on the elevator but I am confused by the buttons on it. There are many buttons but none are labelled or clear and I cannot tell which button to press to go down. I make a guess and push one but instead of going to another floor the elevator starts moving along a track from one side of the mall to another.

      I get out on the otherside in frustration and come across another adandoned baby in a stroller. People are running around ignore it so I do to. I am starting to panic because I don't know how I am going to get to the main floor to exit the mall before sunset, let alone make it all the way home before it gets dark completely. I try another elevator (and pass many more abadoned babies in strollers - I think I counted five in total this time) and luckily I find one where there is a woman with two children waiting to get on. I am hoping that the woman will know how to use it and slip in first, but she pushes her children in and then allows the door to close, apparently content to adandon her childred as well.

      I am panicking and don't know what to do because the elevator is not moving and I don't know how to open the door electronically. I pull the doors apart physically but watch in horror as the two children slip between the space from the elevator to the floor and fall down the shaft. Suddenly the elevator starts moving and goes down to the main floor. When I get out of it I find the woman from upstairs holding one of her children as if nothing had happened.

      It is almost dark outside and I am approaching the front doors of the mall when an army of masked soldiers in blue riot gear pushes their way in. The leader of the group points to me and says "There she is - that's the princess." The other soldiers pull out their guns and start shooting in my direction. I run as fast as I can and through a door into a dark room. I pull out the cell phone that Mordred gave me and call the number that is on speed dial. When I hear his voice I break down and start crying and tell him that people are trying to kill me. He tells me to stay where I am and that he will be there soon.

      I don't know why the soldiers in blue do not located me, but I can hear them searching through the mall and shooting any straggler shoppers they find, since it is now dark outside. I am very scared and can only hope that my adoptive family made it home a long time ago. I am also confused as to how these soldiers know that a I secretly a princess.

      A vent opens on the otherside of the dark room I am in and Mordred appears and tells me to follow him. Down the shaft and into the basement we go and we get on a service elevator that goes down deep underneath the mall and to a long forgotten underground street. His dragon is there and we get on and follow the tunnel to where it comes back above ground on the other side of the city. Along the way Mordred tells me that his father's spies have figured out that I am the long lost princess and has ordered my exection because he does not want anything to threaten his hold of power over this part of the land.

      I cannot remember the end of the dream but I think Mordred and I run away together and away from the city.


      (A lot of Dragon Booster influences in this dream.)
    13. 1 of 3 - May 10, 2011

      by , 05-10-2011 at 08:18 PM (Visions in the Dark)
      The first of three dreams on May 10th, 2011:

      I am with my parents in a distorted version of the city I was raised in. It is a very hot summer and we are going to a swimming center to cool off. When we get there the swimming center has three pools in different rooms. The first room has a pool that has been converted to an ice rink, even though are are many pillars throughout, and there are hockey players in black and grey jerseys practicing on it. The second pool is huge and looks like two olympic sized pools stuck together. The thid pool in the last room is an indoor wave pool but it is closed for repairs.

      My parents go to the second pool, but I go into the first room to watch the hockey. The game is just ending and workers come out and do something to the ice which makes it melt right away. Some of the players take off their hockey gear and strip down to bathing suits and jump into the icy water. I stick my feet in but am not brave enough to get in the freezing water. Soon the workers return and begin draining the pool of the water. Tables are set up around the pillars in the pool and the tables are set for eating. A catering table is brought out and set up along one side of the pool and along the farthest end (in the shallow end) many tables are set up and hundreds of soapstone sculptures are put on display.

      Many people come into the first room from the other pool and begin eating. I am fascinated by the range of sculptures and ignore everything else to look closely at and admire them. There are two young men also looking at the sculpures, one middle eastern man and a caucasian man who is very handsome. I catch the eye of the caucasian man and blush and turn my attention back to the sculptures, pretending not to have been looking at the handsome man. I recognize some of the soapstone sculptures as famous one or ones that I have made myself. Some also look farmiliar though I cannot remember where I have seen them before.

      Time is warped somehow. I can feel myself moving slowing and everything around me is moving very fast. People come and go for their food in a blur and soon it is nighttime and the place is empty save for a few of the hockey players and the two young men I had seen before. They invite me over to the tables around the pillars to eat and I am excited to find that sushi is being served in abundance. Time seems to warp again and seen the hockey players are gone and only the two young men and I are left. We eat as much of the leftover sushi as we can because we don't want to see it thrown away and wasted.

      After we have eaten our fill I go back to the soapstone sculptures and continue admiring them. There are two peices that I am really attracted to and the handome causasian man comes over to tell me that he created those. I am speechless with awe and embarassed to recieve his attention and say nothing, but he comes and stands very close to me and shows me with great detail and intimacy how he created his work. I just stand there with my head and heart spinning and blush.

      There is an explosion outside. The middle eastern man comes running inside with some people I think are his family. There are more explosions and gunfire to be heard but none of us seem to know what is going on. Suddenly soldiers in black uniforms come barging in and seperate the middle wastern people from the causasian man and I. We try to tell the soldiers that they are our friends and innocent of anything, but they will not listen to us. The sounds of fighting continure outside and soon a commander dressed in American fatigues comes in and orders the middle eastern people arrested for terrorism. Again our pleas that they are innocent are ignored and they are carted away outside.

      Most of the soldiers follow the commander out, except for two, who are left to keep guard over the handsome caucasian man and I as we are placed uder house arrest and cannot leave the pool area. We huddle and shiver in fear together.
    14. March 3, 2011 - Winter Nightmare

      by , 03-05-2011 at 02:30 AM
      I wake up in ‘my bedroom’ (it does not look like my bedroom). I step out into the hall. There is a railing looking out over a large two story window. I see something falling out of the sky in the distance. It is shining like a meteorite falling into the atmosphere from space. It crashes down. I can’t see exactly where it land because it lands in the distance behind a hill. I see blue and green flashes coming from behind the hill.

      The dream gets fuzzy. I think I saw people walking away from the crash site. They look like army soldiers; they are in uniform and are carrying weapons.

      Suddenly there is a flying ‘drone’ (from the game bioshock) zooming around in my room. It shines a blue light at me. I scream ‘you’re not real, this is just a dream”. I look at my hands and start rubbing them together.


      I wake up from the dream in my bedroom beside my boyfriend. It is my bedroom (it looks like my bedroom) but I know that it is in a house (not an apartment). My boyfriend is sleeping beside me but he is holding a boning knife that is pointing down on my sternum.

      Now we are sitting in the living room (my boyfriend and I). We can see outside the window that there are many soldiers going from house to house. My boyfriend tells me to make an excuse when they get to us. I’m not sure what that means but I can tell that something is wrong. A soldier comes to our doos and asks if we’ve seen anything out of the ordinary. I stutter my boyfriend cuts in and makes up some sort of story to convince him that everything is alright. I’m thinking of the knife that morning, thinking that that was definitely out of the ordinary and it was terrifying.

      Next thing I remember I was on top of a snowy hill with many people.
      Now I am in a house with my dad’s side of the family. One of my cousins is screaming and swearing as she tries to get through a door in the house we’re in. It is unlike her to scream and swear. I feel like there is something wrong so I try to flee.

      I am on a snowmobile outside of a house that I used to live in with my parents. I am trying to get my boyfriend. There is a young boy in a snow suit attacking him. I’m yelling and trying to get him on the snowmobile so that we can get away.

      The End

      Throughout the entire dream I felt that the meteorite crash, flashing light, and soldiers had everything to do with why everybody was acting weird.

    15. Soldiers, skiing, maze,

      by , 01-02-2011 at 09:27 PM (Tomas's DJ - "Exploration of the inner Self")
      * I think I am in some kind of game. I am in a complex of old abandoned buildings. I know that there are black and white soldiers around. They wear futuristic armour, similar to the iron man or star wars one. I am going up on an outside staircase circling around a concrete column. Suddenly there is one of those black soldiers. Somehow I know it's my friend "El". I start shooting at her. She falls on the ground. I pick her up and carry her up the staircase and put her down behind a corner. I take of the Armour or scaphander. She wakes up. I am thinking to myself, that they must have it somehow timed up that she wakes up at the right moment. (this last bit doesn't make sense, but this is the way I remember it).


      * Wehave a New Year resolution that we are going to eat healthy. My friends and I meet up in our kitchen. There is"Mk" and "Rsh" and I. Mk brought three bags of salad. "Mar" is going to cook something. "Mk" wants to go to Tesco, but can't make his mind. He asks if I go too. I am thinking whether I need something as I know that when I go, I buy loads of stuff that I don't need.


      * It seems that we are around TateModern or similar kind of building. There is supposed to be a big balcony with a garden or playground. However, we find here just a massive hole with some columns erected in the middle. Something is probably being built there.... ((then I'm talking nonsense about Mk and Mr, New Years resolutions and news :-D)


      * I went skiing in my village. There were many skiing entertainments. There were snow dunes and. I jumped and spun on those. There was also big snow wall, as half U ramp. So I was jumping on it too, but towards the end, there was less and less snow to the point that I had to stop.I tried to sky though, but I couldn't. I had to walk.


      * I was in some kind of psychology experiment. I had to get through a maze. I was playing against other people. It was taking place in a basement of some large and old building such as supermarket. My goal was to find documents and money, so I could get out from the maze. As I walked through I saw draws and wardrobes everywhere. The documents and money were supposed to be in one of them. I had to run and search for them. I found some in one of the wardrobes in an old blue, flannel jacket. It was a valet with various documents and money. However, there was no ID that I needed to get out from the maze. (there was a woman playing against metoo. I thought itwas my neighbour " "Kourilova". One farmer asked her whether she was pregnant. She got angry and told him not to ask her that ever again! I don't know where is this last bit coming from or what does it mean. Bizarre)


      ** this was an extraordinary colourful night. Looking forward to more of those.
