Sleep and Dreams Megathread - General

[QUOTE=The man of "Wat";24509628] So I keep hearing. I cant model or animate worth shit, but I'll learn one point or another.[/QUOTE] For sure. But realize that it will take a LOT of hard work and time. But you will learn well enough if you are dedicated. Dont give up.

[QUOTE=D0C H.;24509676]For sure. But realize that it will take a LOT of hard work and time. But you will learn well enough if you are dedicated. Dont give up.[/QUOTE] Indeed. I have written down ALOT of action/horror dreams for when I was younger. I just need a way to animate them.

Cool. Maybe you should try your hand at simple pen/pencil illustrations of your dreams. To start off easy.

That might be a good idea, as I have be sort of interested in learning how to draw to a good degree.

I love drawing. here let me upload a doodle I did in a few minutes from one of my dreams. [editline]11:24PM[/editline] Here it is: [img_thumb]http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/2795/courtyard.jpg[/img_thumb] I tossed this together a good week after I dreamed it. Its a roman-esque courtyard with many doors, and a guard at each door. Granted I could have made it look really good, but i was rushed with a time constraint. But my point is that you should learn to draw: 1) Because you should anyways, it will help with 3d modeling. trust me. 2) It will help with you ability to illustrate your dreams better.

Thats not bad. Thats not bad at all. I might try doing that more.

Honestly its really sloppy. But I started by just closing my eyes and recalling a location of my dream, then I started drawing. I concentrated on getting everything in there as opposed to it being detailed. Anyways, learning to draw is fun and will help you a lot. If you have any questions just ask me. I've been drawing all my life. (Also a fun fact in the dream, my friend is stuck in that black door there. I am waiting to LD to try and get him out.)

I knew all these empty notebooks would come handy. Agh, fuck automerge.

Haha i did that on the back of an information slip I got. I constantly draw in my notebooks. Here is a exercise I want you to try: I want you to sit there and think of a location. Pick a general location (city, farmland, empty field etc...) Then put stuff in it like buildings, farm houses whatever. Then imagine the smaller stuff like details. I mean REALLY flesh it out in you imagination. Do this until you have a nice clear mental image of this place. Then draw it. If it doesnt look right. draw it again. Doesnt look right draw it again. Remember paper is cheap. Really concentrate on it while drawing it. If you get it spot in in your mind, and on paper, and think about it alot, you will dream about it. And chances are it will be exactly like you planned. [editline]11:33PM[/editline] Make it a plce you would love to go. Your paradise.

So I talked with one of my friends about that girl and he convinced me to ask her out, so I think I will. What's the worst that can happen? :buddy:

Nothing worse than the regret you feel for not doing anything. Go for it!

Back when I was sick, it hurt, and made me feel bad whenever I moved inbed, so I stayed still. Eventually, I felt the breeze on my face, I found that weird and opened my eyes. To a large field with perfectly trimmed grass along the rolling hills, with a large gorge with waterfalls and all sorts of stuff like that. Sitting beside me soon enough was a young girl, who seemed to shift to whatever she, or I, wanted. She was young, had black short hair, glasses, and wore a blue hoodie and jeans. She was barefoot for the most time, she explained how this was appreantly my tranquility. And she knew every damn thing about me, from start to finish, and was able to tell me interesting facts which appreantly, according to my dad, were true. Interesting stuff tbh.

Nah i didn't, i hate bananna's. didnt get time to eat cereal, just kinda crashed out. Off to work, back in an hour.

Well have fun. I only remember my dreams if I eat a banana. Speaking of I just finished mine and am now off to bed. Wish me luck. Also the man of "wat" I need ot go to bed. getting seriously tired. I'll be happy to finish out conversation when i wake up tomorrow. Night all :buddy:

Night Doc! Its quiet now. :smith:

Well, I would say something, but I have nothing to say... Actually, like, one thing. Whenever I tell myself I'll remember my dreams or lucid dream or whatever, I don't remember my dream as well, which is weird...

Woaw, what did I miss?

I love this thread

I love it better when Zin and Jake are here :v: moves like 20 pages a second

I've found that when I'm getting into the SP stage my body becomes really, really sore. Its like someone is hardly pressing all the pressure points in my body. This lingers and builds up until I purposefully break off the attempt due to the excruciating pain. What is this, and how can I fix it?

Now to think of a sub [editline]02:30PM[/editline] i am taking a nap soon

All these nice dreams are making me depressed. I had another one today, i had found someone i loved a few years ago (real life) and was at her place, things started off slowley but anyway we ended up having a very salty french kiss. Then i dreamed i was playing TF2 killing a bunch of spies disguised as engineers. Then i was owning a few people with the axtingusiher.

Didn't remember any dreams goddamn it.

Yeah! I just had a lucid dream within a lucid dream. The first time I woke up in my room like normal, then did a reality test like I always trained myself to do. Then I went downstairs and out onto the street where I tried to fly by trying to make myself jump higher and higher. I just fell down on my ass and was surprised to realize how real falling on my ass felt. Then I woke up, did a reality test and I was in a dream again. This time I went downstairs and watched some dream-tv because I heard that dream tv is really cool. In case you're wondering what I saw, Mythbusters was a cartoon, the band the Arcade Fire has their own channel, and Nickelodeon has iCarly running 24/7. Then I went out of the house and I saw a nice car and tried to drive it but an angry black man came out of nowhere so I tried to run away but he was going to run me over with his car and he kept spouting out swear words at me. I tried to fly but this time it really worked on the first try (I guess I just needed motivation) but then the angry black man could fly too and when he flew he left behind himself the colours of the american flag so then I fell and when I hit the ground, I woke up. I probably just should have told him to spot it and go away because that always works in lucid dreams. I didn't do that I don't know why but eh it's just a dream. but what could it mean? am I a possible racist? I should get my subconscious out for the first time and tell him to stop doing that.

I can only remember one dream, I had adrenaline shots (They looked nothing like in L4D2, but that's probaly why I dreamt about them) and I planned on using them for something I can't remember.

When I am in "bliss" (I like to call it. Basically my mind is perfectly clear and I dont feel anything but my heartbeat and hear nothing except for my breathing) I then tell myself multiple times "I WILL remember my dreams, I will remember my dreams" After I think that a few times I come out of the meditation. Then I got to sleep. I have only done this 2 nights in a row. But let me say this, last night I remembered so many dreams I didnt want to take the time to putting them to paper. So I only wrote down 2.

Ill try that tonight Doc. [editline]07:02PM[/editline] Well, bar the bannana.
