Real emotions?

Ever thought about what kind of feelings you get while dreaming?

Last night I dreamt I was approached by one of my teachers who asked if I was feeling alright.
I told him I was sad because I had lost two people real close to me and tears started running down my face and I acutally started sulking in my dream, and it felt just like it does in real life. You usually have fear in a nightmare, or indifference or happiness in a regular dream... but sadness in a dream was a totally new experience.

In another dream I was at my grandmother's house and there were a bunch of pets lying around the living room. (All familiar pets that I've met through friends and family.)
I walked over to one of the dogs to say goodnight. After saying my goodnights and giving it a pet on the head, I noticed it was only a "Hello Kitty! alarm clock".

Finding this very hilarious (the fact that I had just said goodnight and pet an alarm clock) I started laughing hysterically. You know the kind where you laugh so hard you can't breath?
Well, I laughed so hard that I couldn't breath. Not at all. I was choking myself in my dream.

Things went black, and I woke up in my bed gasping for air. Apparently I had been choking myself in real life to, or just fooling my brain and lungs to have "gasping reflex" the second I woke up.

A bit scared, and a bit dumbfounded, I crashed my head down on the pillow again, smiled to myself, and took a deep breath out of the sensation I got from my new experience with laughing in the dream world.

Haha!

Exploding guns

I was at school, and all my classmates had a gun in their hand and our teacher was showing us how to use them.

One of the guns exploded in a classmate's hands and the whole room catched fire.
I ran over to the fire alarm and activated it, and we all ran out in fear of the flames.

Then I woke up. Short and weird dream!

Flying with the world as my canvas

This is a dream from a couple of nights ago.

I was at my grandma's house by the beach, but the well-known calm neighborhood was different.
Skyscrapers had been built on the property next to my grandma.

Unhappy about this I took a giant leap up in the air and was airborne looking down at the sabotaged neighborhood. Determined to wipe these skyscrapers away.... I literally did just that... flying around the area; I took out my hand and started gesturing it in a sweeping motion.... as I sweeped the skyscrapers were replaced with green meadows... pleased with my new-found power I decided to wipe out all the neighbor's houses until it was only my grandma's house left in the middle of a giant green meadow next to the beach.

A work of art!  

In a loop

Category: Action

Lucid: No

Hours of sleep: 6

I was in a plane on an air strip with two of my friends. One of them was driving the plane.

The plane started shooting down the runway, and in a couple of seconds we were airborne.

I thought we were climbing kind of steep so I commented this to my friend: 

"Careful so you don't start going the other way!"

My friend turned to me and smiled, and then she yanked the steering wheel backwards and before I knew it the plane was doing a huge loop in the air and I was hanging upside down from my seat in the cabin, adrenaline pumping and my stomach turning its own loops like when you're on a roller coaster.

Coming out of the loop we were pretty close to the ground and I was sure we were going to crash, but the plane leveled and soared on.

Tie me up!

I was working in an office, and next to my desk I had my dog in a cage.
I opened the cage and hooked the leash on to take it for a walk.

As we started walking I turned my back on the dog, and when I turned back the dog had been replaced with a man... still with the leash on... he didn't say anything. He just obediently kept following me and still keeping the leash loose. I jumped on a city tram, and met a friend of mine there, and she asked me who I was with. The man no longer had the leash on him, and he was talking freely about what a great day it was.
I glanced at the screen on the tram to see what the next stop would be...
"Next stop: If." Wherever or whatever that is!

Explicit lucidity

Lucid: Yes!

Yeah, I was incredibly lucid last night... I mean... really really lucid! Can't remember the last time I was that clear and focused in a dream!

In the first part I was at work, and something felt kind of odd or misplaced with the surroundings and the mood. So I went over to read a poster and it said something like: "Live a great healthy life!"
So I did the lucidity check trick, where you turn away and then back again to recheck what you just observed... and sure enough... the poster had changed: "Life!"
Bang... lucidity hits me and I've just entered a world where no laws of nature or man exists! And I went and had a little fun!

I had another dream later where I was at my grandma's house and there was, here as well, an eerie feeling to the whole thing - so I decided to check out her shed and went to pick up the keys hanging on it's usual spot on the wall. The number said: "36"... I did a recheck, like above, and the number changed to "366" before transforming into "35". Realizing I was lucid, again, I ran out to the back yard and pondered about what my next move should be... I decided to run through the neighborhood to see what I could find... leaping tall fences with ease before reaching a neighbors house and upon entering I woke up...

Let it snow...

In these olympic times I actually dreamt I went snowboarding down a mountain side! ... and it felt great!

Maybe I should make an effort to start snowboarding again? Hmm....
