These dreams are uninteresting

The night before last i did not have a dream, so nothing was posted.

The biggest thing on my mind is studying, so naturally last night i dreamt of studying. Then, i remember my friend was masturbating in a room, then his ex walked in as he ejaculated.

fun times.

The first dream.

Had a weird dream last night. My family (mum, dad and brother) and I went on some huge ship, like a cruise ship, but it wasn’t fancy at all. More like an industrial ocean liner, but let’s just call it a cruise ship. We were put into this really small detachable shuttle thing at the bottom of the ship, like an escape pod or something. But it had no windows and we barely fit in it. One side of the pod was a mirror while there were small air vents like those on airplanes on the top giving us fresh air. There was light and it was a green colour; very fallout 3. For some reason we were all happy and excited to be on this cruise ship thing even though our area was a shithole.

While we were there a few times our pod like thing detached from the main ship and we went on small glides through the ocean. When that happened the ‘camera’ in my dream went from first person to some kind of cinematic third person view so I could tell where we were going.

Then after a while something weird happened, my parents just vanished from the pod, unexplained but it made sense in the dream. So it was just me and my brother sitting alone in this tiny space with the cool breeze of the air vents blowing down on us.

Then the air vents turned off, I panicked and I woke up.

My Dream Journal

I’m Sam and I’m going to be keeping a dream journal here. The main goal of this journal is to lucid dream. For those of you that don’t know what that is, lucid dreaming is when you are in a dream where you are aware that you are dreaming. I’ve read that keeping a dream journal can help you to lucid dream since dream information is lost quickly after you wake up. When you force your brain to retain the data (even temporarily), it gets a higher priority for memory committal. Forcing dreams into short/long term memory has the consequence of increasing your conscious interaction within them, hence lucid dreaming will gradually become more occurant in your dream sequences.

So that is the goal. Maybe I’ll learn something about myself through this experience.
