Thread: Hello and greetings

Hello, I happened to read about Lucid Dreaming a couple of weeks ago and realized that I had unintentionally experienced them on several occasions. I recalled they were quite interesting and the thought that you could experience them at will and control them definitely caught my attention.

Anyhow, as for myself, my favorite hobbies are reading/ writing, strategic games and laser tag. My favorite color is green and my favorite animal is... the squirrel. The first thing I intend to do once I get another LD is to walk in a forest. This is because I live in a desert and have never actually seen a forest in real life before. Hence, also the interest in the squirrel which I have seen only rarely, unlike animals such as the tiger which can be seen at most zoos.

Welcome to the forum! You've come to the right place to learn more about LDing. have you checked out the tutorials yet? Good luck and have fun!

And since you like squirrels, here's one compliments of Dudesuperior

Hi there!
The thought of never seeing a forest is as strange of a concept to me as dreaming of one must be to you. I was raised in the woods, and lived there until I was 22.
The thought that you have never seen the trees, and heard the frogs and the crickets... it breaks my heart.
So, I hope we can help you achieve this.

Welcome to the forum. It is awesome that you have decided to become one of us! If you need any help, just ask someone. We'd all be happy to help!

I have looked at the tutorials and have read some of them already. One hopes that the pipe was added to the picture afterwards. Thank you all for the warm welcome, it is most appreciated.

Yes.
Here are some other random pictures of squirrels in their natural environment.
Seeing as how you've never seen them in the wild, you may have some misconceptions about the way they behave in the wild, so here are some pictures to fill you in.

Heheheheheh... @ Sloth

Heh. Yeah, I'd never seen a squirrel before outside of a zoo until I went to England. Where I live, we have heaps and heaps of forests, but we've got no native mamals. Just birds and stuff. I suppose that's what happens when you're a tiny little island nation.

Anyway... welcome to Squirrelviews!

Uhhhh...

Dreamviews...

Squirrel Views....
...had a nice ring to it...
Perhaps another possibility for a banner?
Awwe yeah.

On second thought, dolphins are very interesting animals, right? Heh... heh. I did hear someone say that they were knocked unconscious by a squirrel throwing an acorn at their head. By the way, hedgehogs are evil, to put it simply they can create a pile of excrement larger than themselves in one day. I once had one as a pet.

When I lived in Mississippi, I used to feed the squirrels everyday. I counted 12 of them at one point, crowded around me. Few of them would get all that close, but one of them, I named Weasel because of the narrowness of his head, used to come up to me, and eat out of my hand. Eventually even crawled into my lap. This was after about a month of feeding them everyday. Weasel was awesome. He got as many nuts as he wanted. There was also Stubby, who didn't have a tail. I was my favorite at first, but I soon realised that he was very selfish, and had a hot temper. Always picked on the other squirrels.

Lucky, though you are braver than I, I would have been afraid of catching some sort of disease. I once took care of a baby sparrow for awhile who had been abandoned by his parents when their tree had been cut down.

Yeah. I found a baby human one time, and took care of it for a few months, but then my mom said we couldn't keep it, so I had to give it up.

LOL!!
