BTW, "ma'am" isn't a salutation for women?

Lol sorry. Got you confused with another member

No problem, it's happen and thank you, I look sexy in orange.

I just came across this music video, and in the spirit of Advanced Task i - Music Month: Perform on a stage in front of a large audience using either your singing voice or any musical instrument you desire. Or both. Describe the reaction of the audience. - Aristaeus

This video re-inspired me to do this task. The cover screen shot doesn't give it justice. You've gotta watch it to appreciate it. If you haven't seen it before, it's probably the funniest music video in the universe. There would have to be some slight adjustments for the large audience factor, but I can make it work:

Of all the songs, lol

Seriously? I just found out about this last night! Synchronicity.

Maybe there is a non-copyrighted version, try searching for it, "Turn Down for What" music video.

I finally completed the advanced music based task, but will not get to wear the wings long.

Still Can't Sing- Airport Stomp - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

I did preform but it was just funny how terrible I was.

I've been having lucids all month but not remembering the tasks, then I had a good one last night. I was in a house gathering athletic clothes because a friend had arrived and we were going out to play sports or something. I think he had a soccer ball and a basketball. I went lucid pretty fast, knew I wanted to do the tasks, but couldn't remember them. I went over to a computer and pulled up this site, but things weren't working quite properly and I couldn't find the thread. I was lucid and all, but I still thought I could come on here from a computer in the dream and find the tasks. Then I remembered the force thing, felt myself starting to exit the dream, and looked over at my gym shorts and moved them across the room with my mind just a few seconds before I woke up.

Had a lucid last night but failed to complete basic task II. The funny thing is I thought I had completed it and I 'woke up' from the lucid into a non-lucid false awakening where I was excited and I was telling my brothers how I had completed that task. Funny dream haha when I have time I will dream journal it and edit this post with the link. Grats to all those who have gotten some of these done

*first post* in too excited to post in the introductions thread first, but I'll get there :-)

So last night I managed to get lucid for the first time in a week or so, having failed to do the TOTM when I had a couple of LDs earlier in the month, I was rapidly running out of time to do the tasks!

I started with an amusing dream about a time trial downhill skiing / cross country rollerblading competition which started off quite believable but slowly changed into a mad dash down stairs and escalators in a strange shopping centre slash airport type location. After a while of whizzing through this odd location I reached a sort of semi lucidity in which I has a sense of the unreality and flexibility of the situation but wasn't lucid enough to call it a dream. There were bunches of dream signs but I didn't recognise them as such at the time:

* old place of work/workmates
* feeling of familiarity without knowing where from
* feeling in an unspecified rush
* repeating sections of activity (going down the same slope multiple times)
* more that I can't remember off the top of my head

I had a very brief awakening, during which I realised that the preceding was a dream and I now had a chance of a DEILD. I think I actually had some non-lucid dream to start with, but I have no memory of the content. When I gained lucidity I was in a sunny location with stone terraces and balconies. I remembered the TOTM and immediately spotted a large block of sandstone which I decided to try to levitate by The Force. I doubted myself for a moment because I knew it would be heavy and I didn't want to jump in at the deep end too much. Fearing I might just get frustrated by negative expectations, I briefly considered finding something smaller to levitate, but then realised that I could just make the rock lighter, which worked beautifully!

After that I thought I'd move on to to the cinco de mayo task. I was about to go off in search of a bar but realised that there was one conveniently just behind me! I sat at the bar and asked the barman to share some slammers with me. I've only had tequila slammers once before (not much of a fan of tequila, really) so I got a bit confused about the process and ended up chugging a whole glass full of lime segments rather than just biting one, but I reckon that was close enough!

I lost lucidity a little after that and drifted into a strange dream about being late for work, then woke up to realise I *was*!

Heey Sammy!
What a wonderful way to start taking part in the fun on here - congratulation on your first TOTM success - and the most warmest welcome!!
First wings before even being avatared - that's not happening every day!

Yeah, he's gonna need an avatar or well have another fryingman on our hands

Hey I think there's a certain mystery to being avatar-free . Makes short posts shorter, too!

Since when do you write short posts, FryingMan? Haha

Heh. Compare the size of my #167 above to your #168, for example .

Well, I though I got it again, but nothing.

I got lucid while I was driving. I was in my car with my (deceased) grandparents. Dream almost faded, but I managed to stabilize (it was around 6.50am I guess, before this I was awake at 6.30am and alarm hits at 7am). I though on spending the little time I got with them, but also wanted to try a TOTM. I though, "what the heck.. it will be just a moment". I told them to wait there and left the car with engine on.

There was a father and son (around 10) reading a note about a house on sale. I told the man if wanted a tequila challenge, he said OK. I though to myself "yeah.. once again I'm doing this at the very end of the month...". I summoned a little glass, and using my mind while pointing with my hand, I led the glass to his head. Told him to open the mouth (I wanted to do the Jedi and tequila tasks at same time).

I don't remember if he ate it, or drank it, but next thing is me summoning a big jar to pick the tequila from it. I made the jar float, and when I tried to move the little glass to it to pick some tequila, the jar just came to straight to my face and hit me. I laughed, thinking about how stupid it was to try it this way, and woke up. Anyway it was fun to try having control of two floating objects... I didn't know which one look at, and suddenly it was as if I became some kind of magnet...

So again, no tequila shots for me, and I guess no TOTM either!!

Well, can't wait to read June's tasks!

Fair point. Btw, I love your long posts.

Oooh, it's close to de-winging time! I seem to get lucid more easily these days when I'm working for wings, so that is actually exciting!

Oh, I just realized I did the Basic task II last night
Forest, Telekinesis and Sage Mode ! - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Sounds like you did the TK part, Irreo!

Does indeed!

Well, now that you mention it... it does look like it, didn't even notice! I was so focused on trying to do the tequila task, that didn't thought about the other one.

Well, and also from what I've read around, looks like I'll have to get myself an avatar too

I could have almost done the bonus task all over again! I had one dream last night where I was a midwife about to deliver another woman's baby. But then she wouldn't follow my instructions for Lamaze breathing and I started to panic, wondering why I was even doing this when I hadn't had any training. I woke up, fell asleep again and had a lucid dream where Sebastian Stan and I discussed having babies together. But it wasn't meant to be, I guess, because I lost lucidity before we got much further.
