I'm back home from the retreat and ready to start dreaming again! For the MILD-1 class, my current goal is to incubate a lucid dream where I am flying in a desert. No success in this last night. I had two medium dreams, and one quite lengthy dream.
Dream 1: I know this one was a lengthy dream, but since it was very early on in the night I can barely remember anything. It is what seems the start of a new year at my school, and we are getting put into new houses (My school uses the house system like in Harry Potter). I get assigned into Phoenix, and am kind of mad since I've always been in Gryphon. I don't understand why this year they're changing the house system. After assigning everyone new houses, we go outside for some house games. The first game is baseball. It seems that if you do really well, you can choose what house you want to be put in. I was up to bat and the pitcher pitched a lightning fast ball, I got a strike. Something wasn't right though, the balls were oddly shaped and seemed to be made out of clay. The pitcher gets ready to pitch again, and I tap the home plate with my bat and ready up. He pitches, and I swing at air and miss. Apparently, the pitcher had thrown the ball way out of bounds, and it would have been a ball but since I swung, it counted as a strike. Quite frustrated at this point, I get ready for the next ball. Before I know it, the pitcher throws me a ball. I squeeze my eyes shut and swing as hard as I could. I hit the ball square on, and it shatters into pieces. The bat was vibrating as I dropped it, then the dream faded.
Dream 2: I was at school, but the building was completely different. I'm in grammar class, and my grammar teacher from last year is teaching. She seems angry, and ends up assigning math homework. Someone asked her what gave her the right to assign us math homework, since she's the grammar teacher. She said that any homework she assigns should be done unquestionably. Everyone goes home, and I go to get some ice cream. When I found it in the freezer, it was frozen solid. I remembered that my teacher gave me advice earlier, to turn the microwave on setting 200 and microwave it for 4 seconds. I went to the microwave, and found a knob on the side of it that I could twist. It seemed that when I twisted it, it went two numbers up, then one number back. So it took me a while, but I eventually got it to 200. I took the tub of ice cream and placed it in the microwave and decided to microwave it for 4 seconds. 4 seconds later, I got my ice cream and sat down in the living room. A strange commercial came on, where a really fancy restaurant was shown, with it dimly lit and the tables seemed very high tech. A man was talking about how his restaurants strive to give the best food, then he started naming a few plates. At the end, I saw that the commercial was for Luby's. I thought that was really strange, since the Luby's near us is the nicest Luby's I've ever seen and it is still disgusting. My sister walks into the kitchen, and pours some stew out of a pitcher into a bowl. She then puts it in the microwave for 84 minutes. I said, "No! Don't do that, I have the settings set for 200!" She didn't seem to care. A few seconds later, her stew was done. Those were some fast 84 minutes. It was boiling and had exploded all over the microwave.
Dream 3: I started out at a museum with my father. He seemed really excited, and got a call on his cell phone. It was my sister. She's coming to the museum. She arrived here with her and her boyfriend, then a guy from my school showed up. He parked really badly, so I decided to just pick up the car and place it where it should be. I gripped the GMC emblem on the front of his truck and pulled up. The emblem snapped off, and I panicked. The owner didn't seem to care, but I figured out how to fix it. Apparently, it was all attached through some strange magnetic wires, so I fixed it. A bunch of strange things were wrong with his truck, but he told me to ignore them. I started going to the museum, when suddenly the guy from my school started to panic, apparently he forgot about his cousin's funeral. I said I'll go with him, and we got in the truck and sped to the funeral. At the funeral, they had to body for the girl since she drowned in a small pond and her body was decayed. Everyone seemed really angry at one kid who was there, everyone thought he killed the girl. For some reason, I felt like I could really relate to this kid, so at that moment I took it upon myself to investigate the girl's death. I walked to the pond where she drowned, accompanied by the accused kid. Apparently they had a clubhouse in the reeds surrounding this pond, and the only way to get to the clubhouse was to go underwater. I jumped in and found the entrance to the clubhouse, and inside it was quite large with just a table made of paper in the middle. I wondered how the paper table survived through rain and other bad weather, and just decided that it must be coated in wax. There were some papers on the table. Each paper had a picture of each child in the club, but it was very poorly photoshopped to turn each one into a vampire. The kid told me that it was these pictures that convinced the investigators that he was guilty, since they thought he was a vampire. I was determined to prove his innocence, and the kid thanked me and gave me a strange power. He said to use it to go underground and attack my enemies from below. I knew exactly what it did somehow, and didn't even bother practicing with it. I went to the funeral with the photoshopped images in hand, and confronted the crowd. I tried to explain that they were fakes, and it was clearly obvious. No one would listen, instead they thought that I was an enemy! They got up to attack me, but I took out the paper table that was in the clubhouse and used it as a parachute to jump off a nearby cliff. I landed in a cave with a cyclops. The cyclops seemed very angry at me for disturbing his house, and I somehow knew that I had to kill the cyclops to prove the kid innocent. I jumped up in the air and squeezed my eyes shut and started to twist my body in air. When I hit the ground, it seemed to suck me into it until I was completely buried. "WHERE HUMAN GO!?" shouted the Cyclops. The dream became third person at this point, but I could feel my body. I crouched down underground and sprung towards the cyclops. I traveled extremely fast underground, and when I was underneath the cyclops, I jumped up and stabbed him with my sword. He screamed in frustration, but said that he had a gift for me. He said he was told by the gods to give this to the man with power. It was a portal gun from the game Portal. Then the cyclops ran away. I knew he would die of his wounds so I didn't bother pursuing him. Instead, at this moment I saw many more cyclops, but they were working carrying boulders some place. Instead of facing them all at once, I used the portal gun to teleport them to me one at a time. When they popped next to me, I slashed at them with my sword until they exploded. As I was finishing off the last of the cyclopes, the dream faded.
