Nice dreams. I knew you would be back at it soon enough!  The first one was pretty funny how it started out. So many things distracting you from getting to sleep. That's pretty typical of dreams. It's funny, a lot of times just after becoming Lucid I've gotten confused, thinking, I don't remember falling asleep!  :D

Cool seeing your brother again. I saw my Dad the other day.  It wasn't Lucid but I had traveled back in time to a point before he died. I got to talk to him with the knowledge that he had died, and was going to again.  So it was much like if I would have been Lucid. Maybe even better because I thought it was really him.

That must've been a pretty sight! I want some spacy dreams to!

Hi feist303! Yeah I think that happened because I read in Moonbeam's journal that she'd seen an amazing dream sky and I really wanted to see one too. Dreams definitely seem to stem from fears and desires.

RC moment! My car acting weird is a major dreamsign for me! Or any other electronic stuff!

Yeah electronic malfunction is pretty much a universal dreamsign so I was annoyed that I didn't RT at this point as I'd have had a longer lucid.

That sounds cool, i've never had that happen to me...

I've only had it happen a couple of times where a new dream has formed around me. It's pretty cool. It just materializes from nothing.

Hehe, thanks for the inspiration, streaking is now one of my dreamgoals!  :D

Ha ha go for it!  :P

It's common to lose sight before you wake up, while keeping sound and touch...
It usually happens to me when i wake up from a LD.
Everything turns black, but i can still feel and hear what i'm doing, and the i wake...

To stay in the dream, you could try spinning or rubbing your hands together when that happens!
Or remember to stay still in bed and try a DEILD!

Yeah, I'm annoyed I didn't try harder to stabilize the dream. I've succeeded in the past with spinning. I always worry about attempting DEILD though as I worry I'll lose the memory of the lucid I've just had. I have had a few DEILDs though and they're brilliant.

Thanks for your comments!  :)

That was good. Way to kick ass in the bathroom.  :)

I bet that was fascinating outside the house in the dark with all the creatures.

That was funny that the guy didn't like being flashed.  :chuckle:  If you were not already Lucid that would be a good reason to reality check.  :)

Yeah it was a pretty cool environment. I love that eery dim light you get in some dreams. And yeah I agree about reality checking if a guy wasn't interested in boobs!!!

All those creatures were cool.

Normal names for DC's; usually they come up with something bizarre.  :chuckle:

The creatures were indeed cool - especially the bee. And yeah I've had some weird names given to me by DCs so getting normal ones was definitely a surprise :)

That's not pathetic! I wonder what you'd think of all my short lucids then!
Just to bad you didn't get the music to play...  :sad1:

I imagine doing something like this in a lucid dream someday :

Sometimes you just have to break out into song. It's happened to me on many occasions too.  :)

OH MY GOOOOOOD!!! That video rocks, feist!!!!! I love 80s music and that totally captured the mood of my lucid so perfectly. I am so gonna sing that in my next lucid dream! TFS.

hey and don't worry about having short lucids... at least you can get lucid :)

I know, it's pretty cool being able to sing out loud and basically be a complete dick. If you can't do it in a LD then when can ya do it?? :)

Hang on to that excitement!  I really believe that is one of the most important variables in the ability to get lucid.

I couldn't agree more. For all the hard work we do (incessant reality testing and screwing with our sleep cycles etc) it is definitely one of the pay-offs. The elation is indescribable to someone who has never experienced a LD. It just leaves you on such a high, sometimes for the entire next day, especially when you achieve a lucid goal. I love love love it so much!

Oh I just realised you meant it probably helps with lucidity. Yeah, I'd agree with that!

Congrats.  :)

It's funny the replies that DC's will give sometimes.

Pj is right about the excitement factor. The more excited about something you are, the more likely you will think about it in your dreams.
