Well, last night I was as close as I have come to completing my major dream goal, and yet, it still did not quite happen which now that I think about it kind of just makes me mad, because I was SO close and yet it still did not happen... Anyways, the first thing I remember is that I was at this old walled city, somewhere in Italy I believe. Anyways, in this city, two futuristic armies composed of robots were duking it out for control of the city. It was kind of like a video game, because each robot had a little health bar above its head and stuff like that. Anyways, sometime during my explorations of the city, the alarm woke me up. As soon as this happened, I was able to recall the dream and instantly go right back into it. When I first got back in, I was a little drowsy, thinking myself to still be asleep. I then realized however that I was back in this city and became lucid. This time, I remembered to stabalize the dream, which is a good step in the right direction. I just told myself over and over that I was in a dream and it was going to stay stable and I would stay lucid so I could work on my dream goals. I then decided to accomplish my major one. (I also contemplated the group project goal as well, but just could not help myself. :-/ Anyways, I just began telling myself that as I explored the city, I would find who I was looking for. As soon as I had said this, a little arrow just popped up in the center of the city, floating above a building. I thought that this myst be leading me to them so I followed it. As I made it to the building, the arrow started bouncing up and down as if to say "Your destination is ahead" I entered the building however, to find no one in it. I went into the basement, where there was a kitchen. I then remember turning around and seeing a shadow coming around the corner. I looked closer, and then they came around the corner and it was none other than who I had been wanting to meet this whole time! In the dream, I was literally speechless and just kind of stood there in shock. They they came over and we were just about to greet eachother and then a bunch of the robots suddenly came in and stormed the building where we were. They instantly came in and violently separated us from each other. I was so furious that I woke myself up, trying to kill the robots so I could get back. Man I was so mad! Here I was about to finally achive a HUGE goal of mine and these damn robots come in and ruin it! GR! After waking up from that, I just went back to sleep because I was so angry. I do wonder though... did the robots storm the building because I was so excited t was finally happening, and I almost did not believe it myself? I just need to be really confident next time so that does not happen again. Either way though I AM going to achive this goal soon. I also am going to try and meet some people from the shared dreaming project tonight as well. See ya
