Oh noes! I did it again!! I had a dream about the task but didn’t read it yet. That’s the second time this is happening… I had a medium lucid dream about a evil dream character and confronted him, I asked his name and told him that I’m not afraid… at the end he didn’t feel like hurting me, instead he wanted to walk away. The dream fades and I hear my boyfriend talk to me. Then I wake up.
Soo… euh… I don’t know if this dream counts? I did the task but didn’t knew about the task when I had the dream?
Two short lucids in the last few days. Well, I know I was lucid for probably three minutes or so each time, but I don’t remember the dreams and I know I didn’t do the tasks. I just pretty much remember the fact that I RCed and knew they were dreams and that they were rather short.
I don’t remember when, but it was when the task was active that I had a few lucids in a row one morning. I remember getting lucid in a dream, but not being inside anywhere. I was walking along on a frozen river. I was lucid for a few minutes, but didn’t start trying the LC right away because I thought it would be hard to find a place to watch a movie. Finally I decided I’d try to go to a Pirates of the Caribbean world, and stupidly jumped in a hole in the ice to try to drown myself again to switch dreams/scenes. At least this time I remembered that if my sight goes dark when I intentionally try to go into a different dream, I’ve almost always been waking up in an FA lately. Sure enough, I went into an FA and was pretty much immediately lucid from that. However, I don’t believe I attempted the LC at all at that point…
Then, I’m pretty sure it was an ND instead of an LD, but I remember a dream where I decided to try to go to a Star Wars universe instead. I’m pretty sure I got there for a minute or two, but I wasn’t there long.
(Yes, I’ve been very lazy about posting this… I should have done it when I first had these dreams. )
Edit: This task goes perfectly with my personal task since I wanted to revisit my childhood nightmares… and there’s two themes I remember (and I wish I could remember the third one). I could also try some more recent themes of my nightmares. I’m not sure I’ll attempt a dream that has a ghost in it… those are the worst of all of mine that I remember. The murderers are easier on my mind than the ghosts…
I think I sort of did the fifth one in a middle length LD I had last night. Here’s a brief summary (like summaries aren’t normally supposed to be brief):
SPOILER - Click to view
Basically in a dream I had, there was a pretty obvious and slow sniper who was trying to assasinate me for one reason or another. I knew about him and easily evaded all his attacks, but it still made me afraid of what would’ve happened if I got shot. But I got lucid after a while, and felt fed up with him and his doings. So the next time I noticed him, I remembered about this latest task and laughed inside for my luck. Having read the stuff here a few times over and over, I thought I shouldn’t run away anymore and wait for “death” (so that I would maybe get to see pretty cool stuff as well). I turned to face the guy, and let him shoot me. It was very pleasurable to see that I didn’t even bleed after standing a bullet in the chest. I walked around to find someone, but couldn’t manage doing it. And then woke up.
It’s also great to see that when I get lucid, I seem to have a natural ability to do anything at will.
Yes it was already posted, just like the first time… maybe I have a precognitive gift. I posted my dream at the Dutch forum at February 11, while you posted the message at the 10th (for Belgians like me, it was evening then)… It’s not a problem if you don’t count this dream as a task, maybe it was just a coincidence.
But, after that one, I had another 3 lucid dreams. (from the last few days) 2 short ones and a medium. I’m going fast…
I don’t have time to translate every one of them, for now, but if you want to see some proof, I will update my DJ soon at the NL forum.
I think my sleep schedule is pretty messed up right now. I had a dreamless sleep yesterday when I took a 2-hour-long afternoon nap, but fell right into a dream at night. I woke up 30 minutes after I went to bed.
I had a short LD this morning. I woke up from my alarm to get to work, but dosed off again. Moments later I was standing in front of a skyscraper and realized I was dreaming and was getting late for work. I doubted if I should wake up or continue the dream. I decided to try to fly to the top of the skyscraper and got pretty high (dodging a lot of falling people), but suddenly I couldn’t see anything anymore and I woke up (and needed to hurry to get to work). No tasks once again.
+1 long LD (with a FA in between and regaining lucidity on the next dream)…No tasks completed, because the dream included a naked girl which was very distracting .
Whoamg, I’m not dead. I didn’t want to post too many dreams about my job because they’re typically boring and I don’t care to remember them (why feel like I’m working more shifts than I am?); it took almost a month of no writing on LD4All to remember a dream not related to my job besides that it involved leaving it. This was a short LD.
Sorry I’ve been busy lately, now really sick . The only thing I could remember was an extremely vivid dream, I think it had a lot of meaning behind it. I’ll get back to this as soon as I recover!
+1 pretty confusing LD, bugged with FA’s and lack of lucidity. At first I was in bed and did a RC, because I had audio on saying “You’re dreaming, do a RC”. Too my big surprise I was dreaming. It was dark and couldn’t get away or take real control. When I was walking through the hall I thought I had already woken up and was now sleep walking (pretty common for me ), so I went back to bed. (This was actually a FA, because I was in the wrong house). Suddenly I was at work and realized it was weekend, so I had to be dreaming. I showed a colleague that we could walk through walls and I took her flying…I slowly lost lucidity again…after a while I woke up (another False awakening, because I was the wrong bed )…shortly after that I found myself flying around my office again in front of other colleagues. I acted like a lucid dreamer, but I think it was more a FLD this time…I woke again and started writing in my dream journal (another FA )…I ended up at work again where my colleagues had turned into robots with shiny metal heads and they were joking around…Finally I woke up for real and had to write down the same dream the 2nd time in my dream journal. Some stuff in my room had been displaced, so I must have been sleepwalking as well at some point or I’m still sleeping.
Other than having lost some interest in the LC (haven’t even posted two LDs I had some weeks ago when task 5 first started, and still not going to atm), I’ve really not done a lot with LDing lately at all. Also, I wanted to let you all know I won’t be on at all the next two weeks, starting 28/2/11. I rather don’t like skipping out in the middle of a task, but my absence is necessary. Good luck guys, and I’ll see you in two weeks!
Sorry for not being present either. I’ve been having terrible recall due to not enough sleep, personal crap and, well, slight depression over my lack of LD’ing improvement
Calculating points now… task and update will be up tonight. I’m so sorry that I kind of abandoned you guys there for a couple of weeks. School work and being sick has put me behind in all aspects of life…
