[INTRO/DC-1] Quo's workbook

[quorthonafull]

Here I'll post my boring dreams and the assignments

[quorthonafull]

I can't remember any dream I had (and also failed a WILD attempt)

[quorthonafull]

Assignment: Go through your dream journal and analyse where the content of your dreams comes from. Is it mostly day residue? Do you notice a lot of false memories or faulty logic in them? I don't get too much day residue, and It's very specific (the other day I travelled 2 hours with my brother to buy a guitar amp and meet some friends, but the only residue I had was a short scene of me downloading pr0n at night). On the other hand, false memories and faulty logic are conspiring all the time to annoy me.

On the other hand, false memories and faulty logic are conspiring all the time to annoy me. If you'd like, you can post your WILD attempts here, and I'll endeavour to help (granted, I'm not expert, but I'm also practicing too, so I've done a lot of research on it and experimenting).

[quorthonafull]

I can't recall any dream (I recalled one, but my brother had to get up at 6:00 to go to work. He makes a lot of noise, so that distracted me, I forgot the dream and I couldn't sleep again until He went out).

[quorthonafull]

Crappy day. No recall, and no WILD attempts (I had to get up earlier)

[quorthonafull]

Assignment: Go through your dream journal and see if you can notice any reoccurring signs that are popping up. Make a list! Bonus marks: Find out which sign occurs the most and incorporate reality checking to the sign into your daily routine. These are the most recurring signs: - Friends (some RL friends and some forum friends) - My brothers (sometimes my youngest brother, but my twin brother appears very often) - My house - Anything related to Metal music

Dream 1: ...Missing part..., then I am in the market buying some meat (day residue). Dream 2: I am in the bedroom with my brother. I take the phone and call to a number (I don't remember the number), and the guy on the other side says that the number is wrong. Then, my brother calls to the same number. I go outside and my cellphone starts ringing. It was Cuti (a friend from Taringa!, an Argentinian forum). ...missing dialog..., and then He sends me a text mesage (...missing text...). Dream 3: Me, in a parklot, I realized It was at Jumbo (a Supermarket, I saw one going back to my home on train). I am with Virginia (another friend from Taringa!, day residue) and an unknown tall and bald guy, wearing a yellow shirt and blue pants. We talk about lucid dreams, and then a woman appears. Tall, dressed with expensive clothes, She asks something ...missing dialog... and then She leaves the place.

Dream 1: crappy recall, a lot of missing parts. The only thing I remember is that I studied a lot for math, but I failed. Dream 2: I am with my two brothers in my bedroom (day residue), my youngest brother es playing Age of Mythology and I am with the notebook. My twin brother says something about an iDoser drug (day residue, googled about iDoser), and I tell him "some people say that Inhalant is the most messed up dose ever, and It feels really scary. You should also try Hand of God" When He listens the word hand, He hits me in the face. "Hey, what are You doing? I'm not kidding, that is one of the most expensive doses. It costs two hundred bucks, like Gate of Hades". He keeps bothering me, but a manage to fall asleep. It seems I had a lot of residue today and yesterday.

[quorthonafull]

No recall today

[quorthonafull]

Dream 1: Me playing Grand Chase (the only thing I remember, and It was day residue).

[Serenity]

Sorry about the bad recall I have tried any of the tips from class two?

[quorthonafull]

Backward recalling helped me in some cases. Anyway, I am better than two weeks ago (zero recall).

[quorthonafull]

Some things distracted me this morning, and I couldn't recall any dream

[quorthonafull]

A bit distracted with other things, updating journal soon

[quorthonafull]

8/26/2010 I am playing Guitar Hero 5 (dreamsign, I don't have a GH Guitar). My brother turns off the XBOX 360 (another dreamsign, I have PS2) and says "hurry up or We'll be late" (I don't know where We were going to be late). I punch him in the face. He falls to the floor, and Queensrÿche's Revolution Calling starts playing background. "This is weird... oh, I'm dreaming!". I couldn't prevent the collapse and the dream faded away. 8/27/2010 I am with my family in a city called Alaskaland (WTF?). It seems We are travelling, with a lot of bags. My mom tells me what to do now We're here: "Matias, go to the train station...". But I go to the bus station, a mile away (day residue, I was looking for some meat in the freezer, but my mom found it in the fridge). I don't remember what to do (I have that problem often), and then I se my family. My mom was furious "to the train station, Matias, TRAIN. Lets wait for a taxi.". We sit down in a stairway. My mom cellphone starts ringing, but with my brother's ringtone (giant dreamsign, huh?), and I hear a nigger shouting "turn off that f***ing phone". He's coming here. "A nigga, and I'm with my brother. We could enjoy breaking his bones. A perfect situation... This is a dream!". I push him to a wall and start punching him. Another nigger appears. I throw the first nigger through a window, and the sunlight fades my dream... 8/29/2010 I am in a place, far far away. A quiet town, without the noise and the smog of the big cities. I don't have to worry about getting up earlier, looking for job. It's a nice turn in my life, like the paradise. No cellphones, no TVs, no videogames. Some boys invited me to go around, to show me the town. They lent me a bycicle. Then, We ran some races (with the bycicles too). I'm not extrovert, but They were nice guys and It was not difficult to socialize with them. I even had a crush with a girl there that same day. Assignment: Review your current sleep schedule. Taking what you know about DILDs and WILDs, which technique would best work for you for inducing lucid dreams? Bonus: Knowing this, you may want to look into signing up for that specific course when it’s offered next Hmm, thats hard. Most of my LDs were DILDs, but I took the WILD-1 class and the success may come with time... It all depends of the next results. Assignment: Think of 2-3 goals that you would like to accomplish. They could be anything! If you need some inspiration, check out some tasks from the Task of the Month forum. How would you attempt each goal? Meet my DG: I may ask my subconscious for him/her, call him/her by shouting, or summon him/her with a ritual. Build my temple: a place perfect for knowing more about my inner self, and a secret base at the same time. I may build it in the tratitional way, one brick at time. Learn to fly: I may learn this by myself. In other case **read next point** Learn to cast spells/black magic/demonic powers: via teacher (my DG, an old wizard, a demon, or making a pact with the devil). Learn shapeshifting: Living soem time with an ancient shaman in the jungle.
