Altering physics (LUCID dream!)

Category: Superpowers
Hours of sleep: 6
Lucid: YES!

I was in the house where I grew up. Something made me suspicious about the whole thing being real life - primarily because the house I grew up in is not in family possession anymore.

A TV was on nearby and I did a dream check - I looked at the picture on the screen - turned away - and when I looked back it was completely different - I did this again - and the picture had changed totally. (The images had no connection to each other at all.)

In the amazement of realizing I was dreaming I started dashing out to the 2nd floor balcony of the house, grabbed the railing on the balcony and flipped myself over so I was hanging on the top of the railing, and pressing off with my feet on the lower part...  at this moment I made gravity shift... it was like the world flipped over from a vertical angle to a horizontal one and I lost connection with my feet to the railing and my lower body came down so I was just haning on to the railing with my hands - below me was only clear blue sky - I let go - and as I was falling gravity shifted back to normal and I landed on the lawn.

At this moment I started dashing at a super-high speed - and my amazement of being lucid did something to the lighting of the dream world - you know how dreams often are a bit dark and blurry?
But now, being in a lucid state, it was like someone turned on the lights and everything got brighter, and I could see clear colours, the texture of the grass, the birds in the sky - the feeling is so hard to describe - this was my world - my world created in my mind - with my rules - and I could do whatever I wanted to. It made me super excited! Like lucid dreams usually does!

I just kept on running and jumping at super speed and super height until the excitement woke me up at 4:30 in the morning in my boring dark bedroom in my real, not so boring, life.

Jack Frost ITH!

Category: Bizarre
Hours of sleep: 8
Lucid: No

I was in a house with some friends, when all of a sudden bullets started crashing through the window and we all had to take cover on the floor. Through the window came a bunch of snowmen with rifles in their hands - ready to kill!

An instinct in me told me to fight these snowmen off - so I started "kung fu'ing" with one of the snowmen and I managed to grab the rifle from him and started firing off at all of the intruders. As I hit them in the head they exploded into yellow water - maybe it was urine - it was gross either way.

A little girl came in and told us that the source of the evil snowmen was located in her backyard - so we all went there to try and shut the whole thing down - but when we got there the dream went in another direction that I can't make out clearly - something about cuddling with a bulldog, and having an argument with someone about something - it's a bit fussy!

Dawn of the naked

Category: Bizarre
Hours of sleep: 5
Lucid: No

Me and a friend entered a dark gloomy house. In the room next door there was a spiral staircase leading down to the basement. I went down first, and she followed me, I stopped at the bottom of the staircase and peered out into the basement. I said I didn't want to go further - she sighed and pushed me aside and started walking into the dark hallway.

A shimmer of light appeared at the end of the hallway - and I gasped at what I saw:
"COME BACK! NAKED OLD GUYS!"
A parade of chubby naked men were running towards us, and scared to death I started dashing up the staircase again, with my friend in my heels - the staircase seem to go on and on and we never got to the top - eventually, in the realization of what we were running from, we both started laughing while climbing the stairscase - then I woke up at 3 A.M. in the morning.

Not ready!

Category: Ordinary
Lucid: No
Hours of sleep: 8

I walked in to an aerobics convention and saw my name on the list of instructors for two classes.
Freakin' out I run to my boss to make sure that this is correct - she says I'm only suppose to have one class - and it's a class I've never had before - reggaeton aerobics.

With only two hours of preperation to go until class start I run off out of the building to fetch some music somewhere else... while running the dream fades out and I wake up in my bed - and my body and mind is totally stressed out over this - luckily it doesn't take long for me to snap back to reality and realize it was all just a dream. *phew*

Disappointing flexibility

Category: Supernatural
Lucid: No
Hours of sleep: 8

In real life I'm working my ass off to become as flexible as possible for my dancing - so it's really disappointing to wake up to realize that it was only a dream when I held my leg straight up in the air with my knee meeting the side of my head - one day - one day I tell yah!

Dreaming/lucid dreaming, as I've mentioned before, is used by some athletes to visualize and improve their techniques - like a javelin thrower would dream the perfect running technique into a throw - or a golf player would practice his swing - or, like I did, practice my tour en l'air (ballet jump) here.

In the dream world you are liberated from all physical laws of nature which makes you able to experience things in slow-motion, with little or no gravity and in a bigger or more concentrated form than in the real world.

Royal meditation

Category: Bizarre
Lucid: No
Hours of sleep: ?

I had a dream about being at a tai-chi workshop. (Tai-chi is a meditational martial arts style.)
We were working in pairs, and I was paired up with the King of Norway, King Harald the fifth.

Later me and "Harald" took a sip of a protein shake, before we were gonna go to the track and have a sprint-off in a 100 m dash. I woke up before the race started, but I have a feeling I would've won! I mean... he's 73 years old!

Bohemian flying

Category: Superpowers
Lucid: Yes

For the first time ever I've actually noticed, and listened to, music in my dream.

Dreaming I was at my dad's house, Queen's song Bohemian Rhapsody came on and a dance teacher I know was suddenly having a dance class in my dad's bedroom with a bunch of people.

And of course this was so weird, so lucidity kicked in immediately with the Queen tune still blaring.
Feeling like doing something overdramatic with this amazing song, I ran outside and started dashing down the driveway of the house. And just as Freddie sang out "mamaaaa" I opened my arms and took of flying into the air..... "didn't mean to make you cry... I sometimes wish I never been..." - now doing a loop in the air - "... born at aaaaaaaaall!"

How dramatic! ... and here's the song if you haven't heard it before - love it:
