"Lucid dreaming, drifting into a second life....I wake up.
In front of me, is an entrance to some kind of building.
Covered in lush vines, the building sits under a maple tree.
The building itself seems to be built into a mountain.
Friendly faces greet me in a convenience store setting
and usher me to take anything that I may need on my way.
Exiting through a back door I cross a bridge with waterfalls
on each side..Im now walking through a trail on the mountain.

I blackout in the dream...and wake up in a park.
A stream runs throughout the entire park
and there are people all around.
I wander out of the park and into a seemingly empty, dark town.
The sun never rises here. Its always snowing. I pass an
abandoned apartment complex on my way up
to the mountain top. At the mountain top, there are fountains
and and a cliff hanging over a body of water. A Lake.
I stumble upon a two story white house that apparently is mine.
in multiple dreams I visit this house and stay there. somehow
I wake up outside of the house.There's a thick fog and a shadow
behind me. I begin to run to the end of the street,
where I find a car. The car is already running somehow and
I manage to escape. I crashed. Into an oak tree. I wake up
beside the car. In front of me lies a lake with a walkway
running all the way through the middle. With whirlpools on
each side of the walkway and waves crashing into it,
I realize that this isn't an ordinary lake.

Even though the sun never rises...somehow there is
always a sunset in these dreams. During most sunsets
I find myself swimming in a body of water that contains
an island. There's always someone with me during sunset...
but I can never recall who it is. I figure that this must be
some part of the lake.

I decide to leave the mountain and explore the apartments.
This time they've changed. Everything is burnt and what
remains looks like metal fencing that composes the shapes
of the apartments. I make my way through the apartment
complex and head into some woods. At the end of a trail in
the woods...I stumble upon a city. My first destination is an
empty hotel. The bottom floor contains a pool, a food court,
some festival style rides and a complex escalator system.
I walk into the elevator with another unknown person who
tells me that my room is on the top floor. I nervously push
the button for floor 100. The lights turn off in the elevator
and I wake up in the basement. In the basement there are showers
and a locker room one on side. A staircase on the other side
would take me lower into the basement. I see a shadow standing
at the bottom of the stairs and decide to investigate the other side.
I walk forward through 5 rooms worth of lockers and showers....
and hear a scream. A loud banging sound echoes throughout the
rooms as if there were people banging on every locker at once. I run.
The door that I came through is locked and I black out.

I wake up at the park again. It's different this time. There's a trail
through the woods now and a large pool. Being in a lucid dream,
I realize that something is amiss and leave. I walk through multiple
upper class style neighborhoods before coming to a building that
strikes me as very off. The building sits in buried in the ground with
spaces in between the area that is around it. The top level has a
bridge that is used to access the building. Its like a reverse
skyscraper. I enter the building and find only an elevator and
some vending machines. I decide to take the elevator. The farthest
the elevator can go is ground level 13. I arrive at the "lowest floor"
The building is set up with NYC style apartments that are flooded
and old. Mold covers the walls that have barely retained any layers
of paint. All of the doors are locked...except for the staircase...
which goes down. Aware that none of this makes any sense,
I proceed to go down. There aren't any doors except for one at
the bottom of 13 flights of stairs.

Level 26? is just a room with an elevator in it. The elevator goes
down but with no indication of which floor it is on. It speeds up
and crashes at the bottom. I wake up.

The underground city... almost looks like what i'd imagine to be
the "City of Ember." strings of lights are strown across the small city.
all of the houses connect and the setup reminds me of tokyo.
I have to walk through houses to get to other parts of the city?
A lady finds me and takes me to a "safe place." A tunnel that
ends up at a lush, sunny, country side plain. There's a small
abandoned school. I explore it and find nothing. I was only in the
school for 5 minutes. When I walked in the school. The sun was
shining. Its dark now. Street lights that weren't there before, now
line the road below. A bus pulls up and the driver tells me to
hurry up. I look down and realized that I'm a kid again. I go to
another school. It looks like an abandoned hospital. After sitting
in classes without any supplies to do my "assignments" I proceed
to run away during class change. The only exit I can find leads
to a balcony. 7 stories high in the air. I jump off and everything
goes black. I wake up at the white house again.

The dreams repeat. but every time at least two details change...
the city's layout...and my activities. Sometimes i'm just living a normal
life, doing "everyday" stuff with people who are now recognizable.
Other times i'm exploring a seemingly dark twisted world and
there's always a presence around me. I don't know what to make of
any of it...but it all seems so real. The dreams are so persistent that
its like a second life."
