Thread: Maria's Epic Dream Journal of Awesomeness

Darn, why is it just one dream?

Okay, I think I found the problem. Fix'd.

And yeah, I should.

The alien dream is awesome.

Lychees... I didn't know they looked so much like raspberries.

What, Mario, a DV dream, and I wasn't in it?! JK. You are on a roll with dreams! Been going to bed earlier? I remember 0 from today, yay!...I remember my dream from yesturday morning, another one. Too personal and depressing to go into detail, but my friend, the one from my LD a few days ago, said that she didn't want to be my friend anymore . I inclined her to give me a second chance....she, sadly, gave me that chance. That's all I remember anyway....

But, in real life we are mostly good. She gave me a Valentine's day card today, we didn't see each other on Friday. Yeah, why DO you guys care . Oh wait, I know what the answer will be.

OK, I am as of NOW done blabbering.

Yeah, I've been going to bed earlier...though not so much last night. I now have another new project, and when added to my epic piles of homework, things are looking bleaker and bleaker for my future recall.

Have You Seen My Guitar? (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was at home, upstairs. My sister had plugged in the Wii, and Guitar Hero had loaded. Back in the day, I was a GH pro, but in the dream I was reduced to medium. I placed my controller down and came back a minute later, only to find that it had disappeared. I searched everywhere, but couldn't find it. My sister was looking impatient, but I simply could not locate the controller. Dream ended somewhere in here.

Wait, you have Guitar Hero for the Wii? Which one?

The third one, and Aerosmith. Then I started sucking, and my hand started cramping, and I discovered the internet.

Lol Playing GH3 hero (L.O.R.) on Expert Carrer... stuck on the 8th Teir :/

Fun yet Challenging times :3

My aims for GH3:

Finish it on expert.

Play all my favourite songs to a 100% FC.

Learn all my songs by heart so I can play Performance mode and be a show off asshole XD

...

Raining Blood by Slayer.... Mosh part = DEATH.

Tiger Car (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Unusual dream that refuses to make much in the way of sense at all. I was at a car dealership, trading in my perfectly good car for some zippy blue something-or-other. Basically, your generic, boring car. It was this hideous shade of dark blue...I wanted either black or red. The salesman told me it was the color of choice for Tiger Woods, and I decided the car wasn't too bad.

Weird-Ass Saturdays (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Another dream of unusual confusion. I was at school on a Saturday, doing random things. First, I noticed a poster of a rather admirable man...his teeth were gapped and crooked, and he was far from being a looker. I somehow right-clicked one of his teeth and selected "copy image." I then pasted it around the school.

On my way to class, the librarian remarked on how full the garbage cans were...they were absolutely brimming, and quite massive, to boot. I walked among the cans, feeling sort of safe in this new cave. The hallway had been dimmed a yellow color...tissue paper covered the fluorescent bulbs, casting the sunset glow. This added to the secure cave feeling. It was a happy dream, all in all.

Torrent Fragment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Just a quick fragment where my torrents finally finished downloading. I checked them out, only to find the movies were of extremely poor quality; so bad, that I had to delete the lot of them and start completely anew. Oh, the frustration...

That would piss me off!!

It's all good, though. The videos are beautiful, the manga came in great, and the shows are to die for.

Ladies and Gentlespoons, inspired by the dream journals of both Serenity and LDS, I have decided to adapt a "scene description" category for my dreams. Here is a sample of the template:

Test (Note)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

This is what the new format will look like. This means that the non-dream section has been removed, though. But that's okay, since I never used it anyway.

The Neighbors Lucid Dream? (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

In this dream, I woke up very early...about 7:00. My mother suggested that I drive over to the neighbor's place and go play with the neighbor kids.

The dream skips to me being on the front porch. It is foggy out, and also a bit nippy. The house is two stories high, and sided with gray wood. The driveway is covered in gravel. The curtains were all closed and the blinds drawn. Everyone was still asleep. I began wondering why I had driven all the way down here, and why my mother hadn't stopped me. It would have made much more sense to wait a few hours and call ahead.

I climbed back into the car, when I noticed two boys in the driveway, wielding wii controllers. There was no TV around, but they were slicing and hacking through the air as if they knew exactly what they were doing. Apparently, they weren't allowed to play the wii, and they wanted to get in some early-morning playing without anyone finding out.

The dream skipped to when the adults were awake. The mother had recently taken a 30-day Boy Scout trip; she recorded her dreams along the way. On 29 out of the 30 days, she had had a vivid lucid dream about the day's events. I read through her journal a bit. The father came out on the porch, despite the coldness. He, too, was a lucid dreamer, though not as proficient as his wife. I shot the breeze slightly with him, and the dream ended.

Mario's Desert Adventure (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I was playing a video game of the Super Mario variety. I was in a desert region; the level began with me jumping around to avoid being sucked into quicksand. I smashed a block, and 5 very valuable coins spilled out. Four drifted down one gap, and one fell down the gap opposite. I was faced with a critical choice, and I chose wrong. I followed the lone coin down a massive drop of death. This was the way forward in the level, but I had still picked the wrong way down.

I was falling slightly faster than the coin, and I eventually intercepted it. There was a wall separating me from the other coins, and I had to wait until the very end, so I could slip through a gap and continue onward. I hit the bottom and moved over, but I was already too late; the coins had fallen through some quicksand. There was a pipe leading underground, which I slipped through. The dream ended.

Aww...

You're doing scene description now too?

Yup. I think it's far more practical (at least for me, anyway) than the non-dream tag, as I don't usually comment on my dreams within the entry. Looking back through my journal, too, I'm a few details shy of remembering exactly what was going on. I hope that this will increase my attentiveness to my dreams, as well as assist in recall later down the road.

I just don't see what makes Scene Description different from the actual dream. Either of you care to explain, or is it just to be more specific?

Well, usually in my dreams I just write down events, happenings, etc. Before, I never paid much attention to the landscape, which is a shame, really. Scene Description is more about describing the setting and less about the main plot/action/events of the dream.

Yes? No? Maybe So? (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

I was walking around my high school, though the halls were oddly empty. I ran into a classmate of mine; one I have sort of a crush for. I was taken aback by her exquisite beauty...she had dark brown eyes, fine black hair cut in a flirty, boyish bob, and a figure to die for. We started talking, leading to casual flirting. She started dropping some serious hints, which I failed to pick up on. I continued to chatter away, and a dark look clouded her face. She looked as if she wanted to claw my eyes out. I had offended her deeply. She told me she was just about ready to ask me out on a date, but not anymore. I apologized profusely, but she would have none of it. She turned on her heel and walked off.

I let her have her space, but I soon ran into her again. Again, I apologized left and right, owning up full responsibility to whatever I had done. She had cooled off, and was considering giving me a second chance when the dream ended.

I like these kinds of dreams...anything dealing with love, romance, or relationships sets me on a sort of tranquil melancholy for the rest of the day, which is a feeling I've become quite fond of. A feeling of longing, mixed with a tinge of regret, but also with the sheer joy of getting to experience something relating to a relationship.

Heh...I DO have semi romance-ish sort of dreams, but they aren't EVER that good. When something gets half good, I am then in 3rd person . Do you like this girl for real, or just in your dream?

It's mostly a raw, physical attraction. Personality-wise, we'd clash all over the place in real life. But hey, a guy can dream...

Well, You're Wrong. (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Short fragment. I was sitting in Literature class. The dream was surprisingly lifelike. The teacher asked me to read the answer to a question we had done. I gave the answer, which satisfied her, until she asked for the second part of the question. I did a double-take, then looked on the homework sheet. Sure enough, it asked me to provide examples.

The dream skips a bit, right to the end, where she says that she won't be collecting the questions today. I have a chance to make up the work, but I thought, "screw it. No fecking way am I doing more work."

For some reason I always get dreams where I did the homework wrong, or failed the test, or something, and everyone looks at me really weird. I'm always devistated, and here you are, in your dream, not giving a fuck.

I need to follow your example....

To the Failboat! (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

In this dream, my English teacher was pure evil. She had given us two books to read at the same time; one book I had forgotten about entirely, and as a class, we hadn't touched it in a long time. On the active book, she kept handing out vile quizzes that I kept scoring very poorly on. She then gave out a quiz on the book we hadn't picked up in months; I failed miserably. My mom was harping on me to get better grades, and I was panicking because this was the last semester before I graduated with a perfect 4.0 GPA.

Gee, thanks a lot, Espanda.

Yakking Around (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Sort of a continuation of the last dream, but nothing like it. I had been transported inside the book; I was living through it...well, sort of. I saw the main character come up this big, rocky hill to these hot springs. The springs themselves were unusual. They were made of wooden barrels cut in half. Folks were sitting in the barrels, and off to the side, there was a special tub just for the local yaks. The people who ran the spa would hoist the beasts in and out...they smelled of wet dogs. The sky was gray, and the ground was covered in loose, jagged rocks. It was an old farming village, by the looks of things.

I found a proper set of springs wedged in back, where I joined my sister. A big, hairy man was there, complaining about how the similarities between the water in the tub and in the air caused it to freeze on his skin. A thin layer of ice was indeed clinging to his arms.

The Indoor Lake (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

This dream was just pure win. I was hanging around this massive indoor lake. People had speedboats under these enormous wooden contraptions, despite the fact that there was nothing to shelter the boats from. Think of them as big, floating, wooden garages. The detail in the structures was amazing. Everyone had a similar structure...big, thick wooden beams, polished smooth, with the grain still showing; large black fasteners and bolts; and green-painted roofs made of tin. The lake had a bend, and curved out of sight behind a wall. The facility the lake was housed in didn't block out the sun; rather, it just let it filter in through this semi-opaque plastic material. As it was sunset, this gave the entire place a warm glow about it.

I asked a classmate of mine how they got the structures in the water in the first place. He explained that they began by sinking a 1,000 pound sandbag in the water, in any spot they pleased. They then had to look for some sort of anchor point or rail, which was hidden beneath the grime and muck at the bottom of the lake. He was going to explain more, but the dream ended.

Choking the Chicken (Non-lucid)

SCENE DESCRIPTION DREAM LUCID

Get your mind out of the gutter!

In this dream, I had to square off against my arch-nemesis; a squat, toadish woman who existed to make my life a living hell. I was chasing her around this building; the coward wouldn't hold still. I cornered her in a room, and she ambushed me. I overpowered her, then wrapped my hands around her neck. I explained to her that I would not kill her, just make her unconscious. She seemed to accept this, and eventually passed out. I scooped her up and delivered her to the proper authorities, explaining that she just fainted for no particular reason. The dream ends.
