I think my dream signs may be familiar places/people. Last night I dreamt I was at home with some old friends, but since I'm in college now that would be impossible...
Last nigt i woke in my bed (i thought) and i heard noises downstairs so i thought perhaps i left the front door open and somebody has broken in. So i got up (crap i realise i have no weapon) opened my door and flicked the light switch (didn't work), i flicked the light switch in my bedroom (didn't work). I am really scared at this point because i think that the intruder has tripped the electric so i won't be able to see him so i crap myself. I then realise that my t.v is on so i think how can the intruder have tripped the electric if the t.v is on? I think perhaps he knows a way to do this (do a reality check you idiot!) so i then open my window and i am waiting to see if he comes up stairs because if he does i will jump out. I also recall i can't open my eyes like when you are really tired which doesn't help.
I wake up for real then i hear a noise (at this point i am pretty scared because i am thinking perhaps that was a warning dream so i get up and flick the light switch but this time it works, then i check the house but nobody is here.
If i was still doing reality checks i surely would have spotted this. I can't believe i didn't do a reality check!
I was watching this SNL skit with Christopher Walken. The one where the census taker is questioning him, and he's a street performer who lives with a bobcat. I wish I could find the link for it on Youtube.
I notice that the skit is filmed in black and white, and the camera work is all shakey like a handheld camera. I think to myself, " I don't remember this part, I guess this is the director commentary or something". Then the skit goes all crazy, and they show some behind the scenes prank where Walken brings in an Undead Baby Zombie Elephant to scare the crew.
I think, "Man, SNL has really gone downhill if they're reanimating dead baby elephants."
Dummy!
I blew my lucid the dream the minute I realized I was dreaming , I flew insanly high and fast that I almost instantly woke up from excitment, although , it was the first lucid dream I had so I didnt really know :P.
i was in a car and the radio said "Lucid FM" and then the car stopped and i looked at a sign that said "LUCID DREAM" and i though "wtf this is strange, ahwell i'll be home soon and be trying again for a lucid dream"
God I cant belive i missed that one, i lost all faith after that but then the next night I had a lucid anyway, strange world (Lucid and normal).
Last night... there's a chick with a dick and I STILL want to hump her.
Ewww.... how could I have NOT clued in??? I mean sure, her breasts were PERFECT but still... dude.. she had a package!
I'm still kicking myself over THAT one.

in my dream, i was reading a magazine article about lucid dreaming.
oh man, i'm stupid. recently, i've been experimenting with different forms of wild, and so i've been kind of unsure about the times of my rem cycles. so this morning i had a dream, where i was in a class or something, and the teacher was talking about ways to get into rem, and how to tell when you are. and i figured, well, if i'm in this class, then i must not be getting into rem sleep well, and thus not in a dream. ARGHGHGHGH
I've had many false results on reality tests, when in retrospect it should have been obvious I was dreaming. Maybe I'm making this up and stitching two or three dreams from long ago together, but I vaguely remember having a dream where I was driving a wire-frame car (with no freaking engine!) all by myself on a road (I have no license) and wondering if I was dreaming. I tried flying or some other typical dream activity and failed, and concluded I wasn't dreaming. At some point in this dream, I had carried this wire-frame car on my back - perhaps after I realized that I have no license and therefore shouldn't be driving. Hmm. Stupid much?
Even if that's a composite memory, I've made mistakes that dumb in reality tests.
Pfff, last night I missed about ALL of my currently known DS's.... (I fell asleep after reading this topic, so that might be the reason ;) )
This is the most stupid:
I speak to someone about dreaming and tell him: if you hold an open bottle of wine upside down and instead of the wine coming out of the bottle, it comes out of the cork (which I held in my other hand) THEN you know you are dreaming.
So, I open a bottle of wine, hold it upside down, but no wine came out, not from the bottle nor from the cork :P So I concluded it could not be a dream.
Last night i was going through a school day in my old school (which felt like a whole school day) and on the school bus on the way home i was looking at this girl at the front and i am thinking if only i were dreaming right now. She always seems to appear in my lucid dreams for some reason, i used to get on well with her but no emotional attachment or anything but she is really good looking so i am not complaining.
I really should have realised because i was thinking about how she is always in my lucids and i was thinking about what i would do if i were lucid, i feel i was so close. Damn!
Last night I was somehow able to conclude I was dreaming by looking at completely ordinary microphone cords, but didn't get suspicious when I saw 3 gallon bottles of Gatorade in a convenience store in another dream. WTF?
Right, I was in my school playground (I'm not at school anymore), and there's a big whirlwind growing bigger and bigger next to the gate. I don't know it's a dream yet, but then I turn around to walk away and bam, I knew it was a dream, but was does Jdeadevil do? What does he do? "Oh fuck this" and closes his eyes, opens them back up and he's staring at his coat hanger in his bedroom!
If anyone knows a way I can avoid doing stupid things like this, please tell me. But bare in mind that it's not that often I become lucid! I also have problems remembering the real dream controlling method, when I'm the dream ofcourse.
Sorry for swearing
One dream should have been incredibly obvious to me:
- I arrived at work (with everybody else present) and noticed on the clock it was 1AM.
- There were people in my work office from college
- Before finding myself at work, I was in the school library in some party (library & party - WTF!?).
The other day I ran into Tony Montana (scarface) and we were talking. We were talking about how I could be one of his main men, and we would do several operations together, heheh. Then he pulled out a gun and triede to shoot me but I had mine with me and killed him first. After that, people called the police and it was just me running from the police the rest of the dream... Can't believe I didn't become lucid.
Just last night i skipped first hour to sleep in because i was way stressed from a rigorous week, and i remember having a false awakening where my bro and a bunch of his friends all piled in my room and woke me up. All of them are at college so this was a rather obvious time to check my reality.
Last night i was in a bar in Spain explaining to these people what lucid dreaming was and there was lucid dreaming music on in the bar. :imslow:
It was on this like Construction Tree House thing, and this teacher from my school was asking me to do her a favour, but while we were talking, it was leaving time. So my friend (he was black and I don't know him) spun me round by my shoulder, so I looked round and outside, the construction workers were busy taking down the Construction Tree House Thing so we had to move quickly. When we were just outside the house entrance and there was only one path down which was extremely dangerous. I'll just explain what it was like, It was very thin so you could just about walk on it with two legs, Part of it was missing so we had to jump towards the house ledge and then away from the house and onto this piller. But at the very bottom of the piller, it could hardly fit on the path because it was right next to a hole and everytime someone jumped onto the piller it would move closer to the hole. I don't know if there was a slide after that or something silly and unrealistic.
Anyway, my 'friend' went first, and jumped across this obsticle and the piller was extremely close to the hole, so then I attemped to cross the obsticle. Looking at the bottom of the piller I knew I couldn't make it, so at the second my foot hits the piller I think "fuck it", closed my eyes and felt myself falling to the floor. I then opened my eyes quite comfortably in reality as if I was doing a Wild.
Therefore I missed my chance of lucidity. Lol, like it?
Out of nowhere, random lights started flashing around me. I just watched, thinking "This would be a pretty good lucid dream trigger!"
I win
Once I did the RC where you count your fingers, and I counted 6. I say out loud "huh, I must be dreaming, that's cool" then continue to wander aimlessly around my dream.
GAH!
Once, I was trying a tic-tac 270, something I have been trying to do for ages, and I thought to myself, " This would be so much easier is I was lucid."
