Don't Leave Me, Scythe Girl

I haven't had a dream in the last two days, but about three days ago I had a series of dreams in one night that I never got around to recording. So I'm going to make up for that now.

***
Dream One
I believe I was at some kind of convention, it was possible that it was supposed to be a local anime convention that I go to. I had to use the bathroom, but the only thing around was a urinal that was kind of in the open, but you stood in it kind of like a little bathroom stall. The people around could see you and talk to you, but they couldn't see your lower body. I went to use it and was talking to some people and some tall weird old guy came up to me and started touching my back. I told the guy off and started yelling at him, and then he grabbed me by the throat and took me from the urinal and started taking me through a hotel. I was choking and couldn't breath and he was moving me quickly through a labyrinth of hotel rooms. My girlfriend was chasing after us and eventually managed to save me from the man. At this point there are two things that could have happened that I'm not sure of. The man retreated back to a big dark evil looking castle, and I turned into an awesome looking hero. I think the guy took my girlfriend with him, but I'm not sure, because I also had a partner wielding a scythe and I'm not sure if she was supposed to actually be my girlfriend. Either way, I was told I was supposed to gather a group of seven people, each wielding a different legendary weapon in order to take down this evil master. In the middle of this however, it faded from me being in the dream to me watching the cool looking heroes on a TV screen. I looked out my window and saw an ambulance outside and some paramedics approaching my house. I went into my moms room to see she was watching the same movie on her TV, and asked her if she knew about the ambulance. She said she called them cause she was hurt or something and I went outside to see what was taking them so long to come to the door. Outsider, two of my friends were sitting on my roof and my girlfriend who was scared to climb up, and I told them I was watching the coolest movie I had ever seen, but didn't know where the paramedics were. My friends pointed out to me that they were meditating by the river in my backyard (which I don't have) because that's the type of paramedics these people were. I don't remember anything else from this dream though.

Dream Two
I was swimming in a pool while my friend's girlfriend was also swimming around in it, away from me. I got out and sat at a table that my friend's were sitting at and started talking to one of my friends. He told me he had broken up with his girlfriend (the one swimming in a pool) and I was kind of happy because she doesn't treat him too well. However, my other friend told me he was dating her now, and that's why she was still there. I got up from the table and started screaming at him that I was completely done with his friendship and I never wanted to see him again. I'm not sure if my friend (who just broke up with his girlfriend) told me this at that point or after I left, but he eventually told me that he was now dating my girlfriend. During my rage, I saw a woman at a table sitting with her kids and she was upset with me because of the language I was using (since I was cursing up a storm at my friends) and I apologized and paid for some of her meal. When I left, I saw my friend who was now dating my girlfriend, and he was holding her hand. I ran up to him and punched him and he punched at me, and I was in a complete rage at this point. We fought for a bit before I eventually walked away, feeling like crap and pretty much giving up on life. I was walking through a parking lot, unable to find my car, possibly because I had driven with my girlfriend and she now had the car. I saw an older brother playing soccer with his younger brother by a tree. I sat there and found a box containing a bunch of classic video games that in my dream were worth a lot of money. I asked the two brothers if it was theirs, and they said it wasn't. However, shortly after two other people in Street Fighter costumes came up and asked if anyone found their games. I handed them over and they left. The two brothers who were playing soccer started talking to me and I told them that my girlfriend of four years just left me. I started walking with them and we got back to their car. The younger brother showed me a scythe which reminds me of my girlfriend, who recently cosplayed Maka from Soul Eater. I call my girlfriend because I miss her, and I "wake up" inside my dream and find myself at a computer. I instant message my girlfriend, which wakes her up as well, and I ask her if she still loves me, to which she replies that she does. She types out three short stories for me to make me feel better and I go into my next dream.

Dream Three
I have a short dream about a guy who is dressed like Doctor Who (even though I've never watched Doctor Who) and calls himself Doctor What and he's like a super hero or something. I don't remember this dream that much, but I wrote down a note of it and it says that some guy flew threw a window and Doctor What took his organs. After this short dream though, I had another dream that I actually do remember.

I was at my dad's house and my little cousin was playing his Nintendo DS. I went upstairs in the house and my dad was talking to me while I looked out the window. I didn't hear what he was saying because across the street in a large glass window I saw a couple have sex, and was completely distracted by this. The next thing I know, I find myself in a weird tunnel-like place walking with my dad, my uncle, my grandpa, and my little cousin. We eventually find ourselves at three portals they each split up and walk through different ones, my little cousin going with his dad, my grandpa going through another, and my dad going through the last. I listen to what they tell me about each portal and walk through the same one my dad went through. At this point, I realize I am dreaming and the roads all begin to turn to rainbows and I follow them to one of the neighbors house (the same one from the Apocalypse dream). I imagine that a girl will be there and she is, but then I try not to think about scary thoughts and I see her face morph quickly into a demon before it changes back. I see she is watching A Clockwork Orange and think to myself that if this were real life, I could easily pick her up by talking about the movie, and say "I love this movie" out loud, even though I know I don't need to. She starts heading upstairs and I see her face morph one final time because I thought of scary thoughts again. She tells me to make love to her and reveals to me a very weirdly pierced body. I start playing with one of the piercings trying to figure out how the hell it was attached (because it was hooked up very weirdly to her body) but then my mind went completely black, almost like I closed my eyes. My mind tells me that if I open my eyes, I will back in the dream but I am hesitant to do this. I slowly open my eyes, but find myself laying in bed, woken up from my dream. I should have known this would happen, since closing my eyes and then opening them has always been the method I used to wake myself up from nightmares.

Kissing Girls

Weird dream last night. Felt something about it though, don't know what. Felt like my life was in danger the whole dream.

***
This started off with me playing baseball with some friends at a local park (weird, because I haven't played baseball in a while and today I actually spent most of my day playing a baseball game on PlayStation with my cousin) and I remember it being really early and me getting back into the car and driving home. When I got home there was some girl there washing dishes. I remember talking to her and looking into her eyes. It was like the whole world revolved around her eyes like I had never seen anything so beautiful in my life. Then I got the feeling like she wanted me to kiss her, so I did. After that we were both walking into my basement to get something and she fell over and died. I held her and tried to help her but it was no use. I think I saw a glance of hades (like the one from Disney's Hercules, except a bit more scary) like he had done this for some reason.

After that, I found myself at the beach. Something may have happened before this, but I couldn't remember. I saw a girl that I know and she was upset that a football she was playing with got taken away by the waves. I tried to go after it but was continuously knocked around by huge waves (which whenever I have a dream involving the ocean or waves they are usually so big that I cannot escape or I almost drown and it's a terrifying feeling). I remember just holding my nose as a huge wave would crash and take me under water and I struggled to breath. Eventually I found some stairs or something that I could go under where the waves wouldn't get to me and there were just little pools of water that I had to swim through. I eventually found the football as well and swam back through the pools to the girl. She was swimming around in one of the pools and I gave her the football and she was really happy. The next thing I know I was looking into her eyes and everything felt weird again, like something I can't explain. We ended up making out in the water, but at that point I realized it was a dream. I felt a little "glitch" in my dream and didn't want to mess with it in fear of waking up. Next thing I know, I woke up in a bed with a girl. I don't know if it was the game girl from the beach or someone different though. I also remember feeling like someone was plotting something against me and that they were outside of the apartment we were in, but before I could do anything I woke up.

Slipping Away

Been slightly busy lately and I apologize for not keeping this update to anyone who looks forward to my crazy dreams. I also feel bad not logging in my dreams because if I don't do this right I'll screw up my little "experiment". I had another semi lucid dream a few nights back but first I'm going to log in what I remember about my dream from last night.

***
Dream One
I was at a mall or something and there was a zombie apocalypse (yay!) and there were zombies EVERYWHERE. I think my mom or someone got bit so I needed to find some herbs (everything was kind of Resident Evil style, even the dream movement). It actually felt more scary than awesome, since I wasn't packing a small arsenal. I think I eventually found my mom some herbs and headed back...but along the way I found some dynamite. When I got back, I lit some explosives and threw them at the zombies and managed to clear the entire mall of them. I saved the day and all was well, though I'm not sure if it was just the mall affected with zombies or the whole world.

Dream Two
I arrived at a house that was supposed to be my dads house, in a limo. It had a prom-like feeling to it but the people in the limo with me weren't really close friends. I got out and I think there was a party waiting for me, don't really know what I celebrating though. The house was surrounded by ocean on most sides, it actually looked pretty nice. Eventually, something clicked and I realized I was dreaming. I felt like the God of my dream and started floating in the air above everyone. However, like my last semi-lucid dream, I couldn't fully control it and was fading in and out of power. Still felt pretty awesome flying around though.
***

Usually, I am able to create people in my dream and have them do whatever I want, but I've been having trouble with that. Like, I think of a certain person I want to smite or whatever, but they kind of appear and then flicker away. Maybe it's because subconsciously I know I'm trying to have a lucid dream, where in the past it just kind of happened? And now I know that there is a possibility it won't work? I guess I'll have to keep recording and see what happens. Thanks to anyone who is still interested in my blog! I love the support and comments!

It's Working

Alright, I had a few dreams last night, but I was woken up at 10:00 am during this morning after not really getting too much sleep because my girlfriend was stuck at work so I went to pick her up, which wasn't really a problem...actually, I'd have to say it's because of this that I had my close to lucid dream. When I got home I was doing a little bit of reading until I started feeling really tired again. I fell asleep and had a bunch of dreams, one which was seemingly lucid but hard to control. I'm going to post the three that I remember, even though some parts are really fuzzy.

Even though I had the lucid-ish dream second, I'm going to post it last.

***
Dream One
I was at Toys-R-Us with my girlfriend and she asked me to go into another section to look for a costume that her sister wanted. I eventually found it and grabbed it and on the way back I ran into one of my aunts. I'm not really sure which one it even was and I have no idea what we talked about but then we parted ways. After that I think some other stuff went on but I don't really remember anything except that I was disguised as my girlfriends dad for some reason. I'm pretty sure she knew I was doing this (and just now I remember seeing her dad and her mom on the couch laughing and having fun but I don't know what that had to do with the dream) but being disguised as her dad might have been to go to a party in his place or something. I'm really not sure. After that me and her found ourselves in 7-Eleven and we were going to get Slurpees. They didn't have any flavors I like though (even though there is ALWAYS a flavor of Slurpee I will get) and then we found some random slushee in the freezer that I thought looked good. I pointed it out to my girlfriend and she said something like "Yeah! That's really good! It has banana peppers in it!" which, I normally LOVE but do NOT want in my slushee. She then convinced me to try a free sample that they happened to be giving out of it and I didn't want to. I did taste a little of it and I'm not really sure how because at the moment I was going to grab the free sample cup from the guy, my phone rang to wake me up. I DID taste it though and I think it was just a little bit from another customer but she said something like "No! You have to get your own and eat the whole thing!"

Dream Two
In this one I think I started out looking for a job. I'm pretty sure some stuff happened before this but I was talking to this girl who owned her own shop and after that my mom asked me where I was going to work. I told her my friend could help me out because she owned her own shop and gave her this little information sheet to look at that I hadn't read yet. Turns out the shop was some kind of drug place, where the woman used a flower shop or something as a cover to sell drugs and the information sheet was instructions on how they work. The next thing I know I'm in the shop apologizing to the woman who I guess I accepted the job from and told her I had to quit and that I didn't mean for my mom to read the sheet. Then my mom and the woman were talking and my mom revealed that she had burned down all of the womans drug facilities After that I had my cell phone up to my ear and I could hear my mom and my aunt talking about a good place to eat. I remember her saying we could just go to her house and spend the night but my mom said no. After that we found a sign leading to a burger place that looked pretty cool and we followed in. On the way we passed through another sign that said "Inner City" on it. It was weird because we were now in a smaller city that the car could just barely pass through and eventually we found a cafe but it wasn't the place we were looking for.
We asked a man walking by if he knew where it was and he said he did. We followed him and he lead us into an alley and then pulled a gun on us. We managed to fight him and win, since I think I was packing a Grand Theft Auto sized arsenal in my pocket. He ran off saying to destroy our car so his gang thinks he killed us because otherwise they would be coming after us. We blew up our car with a rocket launcher I pulled out of my pocket and then went on to take out the rest of his gang. I went up the stairs from an alley and found them but I'm not sure what actually happened because I woke up.

Dream Three
This is the weirdest and most fuzzy dream I had and nothing really happened, but I have to explain it as it is the purpose of this blog. I was in a dream and I couldn't see much in a way that used to happen a lot in dreams when I was a kid. I realized it was a dream and instantly everything got clearer. I even said in my dream "Lucid Dream!". At that point, however, I started waking up. I was on my couch half conscious in between the dream and waking up and I manged to go back into the dream. Now, I saw people. I began to change them into people I knew, but as I tried to change things, I started waking up again. I kept drifting in and out of the dream, but I had a lot of control over a lot of things. Some other things happened in the dream but I can't really remember them. I do remember trying to escaped from somewhere and using my lucid dream powers to easily do this, but I don't remember anything in detail. It might have possibly been because I didn't go through the stages of sleep since I was only taking a nap that I couldn't control it fully and kept almost waking up. I guess we will see what happens next time, but I think keeping this dream journal is really helping.
