Very productive night! No LDs, but I had many dreams focused on LDing. After studying LDs all day, I hit a personal record of 7 dreams recalled!
First Dream: I am trying to recall my dreams, but I can't seem to recall any. In an attempt to remind myself of the dreams, I make a huge checklist of things that normally happen in my dreams. I can't recall any of the items on the list besides date, time, lucidity level, and vividness. The list basically became a scantron, like one of those bubble sheets you fill out on tests like the SAT. The only thing I remember is that the date I bubbled in was Sept. 21. It took me a long time to remember the date, but I finally tried remembering what the date said on the board in homeroom.
Second Dream: Very fuzzy and a brief fragment of me running a 5k at Cross Country practice. I remember thinking I could not make it all the way, and I hadn't even reached the half-way point.
Third Dream: I wake up at 8:24 and it's a Saturday morning. Again I have the problem where I can't recall any dreams. I was very angry with myself, but I do remember saying to myself, "Well, Percylucid did say that our recall may suffer with WILDing."
Fourth Dream: My class is having a discussion on what would happen if our parents died. Most of the Junior class is there, and a lot of the Sophomores are there (I go to a really small school where the entire Junior class is 15 kids). We are all on this giant bed, which is about as big as a convenience store. The sheets are white and cold. J was talking (as usual) and said that if his parents died then he wouldn't be able to live in the house that he lives in anymore, since it would be too sad. H laughed at him and said, "You can't live in your own house, but you'll live in a house alone in France?" Then J shouted at her "IF MY PARENTS DIED!!" Then A called me gay (she annoys me like this in real life) and I told her "I'm obviously not cause if I was gay then I would be able to like you." Then for some reason this made her leave the giant bed and then she came back like 30 seconds later. She didn't seem angry she just laughed and seemed to read something further into it.
Fifth Dream: I'm riding in a car with a sunroof. I can tell it's my sister's VW Beetle, and either my mom or my sister is driving. I'm sitting in the passenger seat looking out the sunroof, and we come to a stop sign. The whole dream was basically while stopped at this stop sign for like 5 minutes. I was staring at this pine tree through he sunroof, and it was shaped really weirdly. It grew normally for about 20 feet, then it curved to the right and grew sideways for about a foot, then it grew straight up again. I was thinking that if a lightning bolt were to strike the elbow of the tree, then the top of the tree would just come crashing down and impale me. For some reason I really wished it would do that and kill me, although the idea of me dying did not seem like an escape or depressing.
Sixth Dream: I'm at home on the computer trying to remember my dreams to write on this dream journal (I had planned last night to start using this DV system). I am struggling really hard to remember my dreams (see a common theme of the night here?), and I suddenly get the though that if I take off my clothes then I'll somehow be able to remember. My clothes felt really heavy, and they felt like they were holding me back. As I begin to take off my clothes, this lady from my school (Mrs. Ta) shows up at my front door. I'm upstairs, so I look from the upstairs to see who it is, then my mom goes and opens the door. I head back to my dream journal problems. My mom is talking and says, "Oh let me get Grant so he can say hi," and Mrs T says, "No, that's fine. I won't be here too long." My mom replies, "Nonsense! I can summon him down here. He has no one to listen to but me. GRANT!!!" So I walk down the stairs and say hi, and I remember thinking that when I said hi I had this weird awkward smirk and laugh.
Seventh Dream: It began at school where everyone was giving presentations on books we read. I used PowerPoint. After we gave our presentations, we were going to watch a movie on the projector. It was something to do with Castro's regime. Shia LaBeouf played Castro. He died his hair salt and pepper and had an eye scar. I can't remember anything else about it. Then after watching it, a teacher went into the settings screen and there were a lot of options to change the film with, like language and culture options. She changed the culture to Russian. This time, two of the actors switched places, which made Shia the protagonist, and some other person into Castro. They also were speaking Russian. Afterward, I went to the bathroom. There was a line of little kids who were going, and there was a sign above the doors that said "GC (don't know what GC means): After this point only you are responsible for what you say." It made sense in my dream, and I understood it to mean that the kids would have to nice in the bathroom, since the teachers wouldn't be able to monitor them. Which was weird, cause the teachers were in the restrooms monitoring them. My grandma picked me up from school and said we had to escape the country. She got us two tickets on a train to escape. We were going to pretend like we were going on vacation, but we would run once we got out. H.T. texted me wondering if they could escape with us, and I said no it's too late, but they should follow the same idea for escaping and we'd help them out once they were out of the country. I texted this to her, but for some reason everything I texted was translated into elvish. It was beautiful! Well my grandmother and I got on the train and left the country. The place we arrived at seemed very surreal, and it was like Rivendell. I actually think I was inside a Monet (my grandmother actually has a credit card with this money painting on it). Well it was an underground community of those who had escaped, and there was housing and such already set up for us. The houses looked like something familiar, but I'm not sure what. I can still remember the shape but I don't know what it is... It's kind of like a beautiful white tunafish. All of the landscaping was blue, green, and red.
