Lucid dreaming experience

Been awhile guys! How yall doing?

So this time i'm gonna talk about lucid dreaming. Have you guys ever done it? Following those set of techniques on the internet that supposedly can help you do that? Well if you did, and did so succesfully, then great! Ive read about it once where they say that if you fail at one of the steps, you'd get stuck in sleep paralysis. But this post is not about that. I wanna share a story about my experience on lucid dreaming. I got the idea to make this blogpost after watching higatv's off the pill podcast on youtube, and i was like "oh i did this once".

So, as an adult, i think i've never had a lucid dream to be honest. My last lucid dream was rather short and i think i've only ever had like 2 or 3 lucid dreams. So the earliest one i can remember was this rather unpleasant dream. As a kid, i started getting annoyed when having forced to go to other people's parties. So at this dream i was forced to go to one party. It was an outdoor party with some kind of stone paved hallway and it was at night. I remember feeling very unpleasant being in that party, and suddenly it triggers. I remember thinking "this is a dream, i was sleeping in my bedroom". Afterwards, with the limited imagination i had at that time, i kinda "make" the scenery change. But whatever i did it still feels unpleasant. So that's it, my first lucid came with he power to change scenery. Mind you all, this was done when i was like 8 or 9 so it might just be a really weird dream, but i remember this sense of control i have when doing the scenery change thingy.

Okay, so the second one was years later, probably between 14-16. Around that time i was gettig tired rather frequently. I would just go to the sofa and took a short nap, and i would have a short dream about me falling from a cliff and then crashed to the bottom, and when i did, my real body would jolt and i would suddenly forced awake. I hear that this kind if dream is not unusual, people have this dream when they're really tired or something. So in the span of few days or weeks, i had this dream 2 or 3 times more until one day, and this time it was when i was really sleeping, i decided to do something in it.

The dream started normally. I was getting forced to jump from a cliff with a grassy meadow and it was really high and i cant see the bottom. And sure enough, i started falling. But when i almost hit the bottom, i realized that this scene already happened before. So instead i conciously imagine conjuring a parachute and i succesfully landed on the bottom.

After talking about this topic and also listening to that podcast by ryan, i think it's clear that to do lucud dreams, you need a trigger inside the dream to be able to realize that you are inside a dream. But nevertheless, the feeling of full control inside a dream is just... Awesome!!

Tl;dr lucid dreams need triggers and are awesome

And so the next post will be about me finish defending my thesis, bye!

Danshi Kokosei No Nichijou (Daily life of a highschool boy) part 1

The title is a total rip-off from an awesome comedy anime with the same title, but im not here to talk about it or preach about how awesome the series was. No, im here share a bit about my past. Well, without further ado, here's my (long past) highschool life!! So here in Indonesia, the term highschool is separated into two, which is junior and senior high. My junior was at a pretty small, cramped, sometimes very smelly, yet nostalgic school in Jakarta called P7. I go to that school mainly because my primary was close by, and like most people, because my older sibling went there. Come to think about it, i was rather social in primary school. I was in good relation with most people. But it all changed when the fire nation attacked (meme joke here sorry cant help it). Junior high was, quite frankly, rough and has a rather huge impact to what i am now. Starting off, you could slowly see, with your biased view, that people are starting to become more of a jerk. Bullying is very much ...

Poetic Sh*t

55 days, few hours and minutes. I’ve been alive for 20 years, but I have just breathe my first. Heart is a fickle thing, no man knows it for its entirety, yet many boast to be able to understand other’s. human lie about things they feel. In fact, humans lie about mostly everything. How hard is it to tell people a string of word that is not. How hard it is to make people hate you, to make you hate them. How much lies and deceit one must do to be able to lie to themselves, as they did to others. I am no liar, but that is what a liar always say. I am no sage, nor am I a holy man. I am but a humble soul withstanding, waiting, hoping, seeking for the truth. Those which are not told by humans, those that sparked war, hatred, tears, and agony, and those that make people smile and hope for nothing. I have discovered and is convinced, that there is simply too much lies in this world, that there is no other way to discover truth other than laying aside all lies that exist. I am no monster, ...

Late night rant

So. HELLO THERE!! I'm back from a rather long hiatus (not that it's a regular blog anyway). Let's cut right to the chase, shall we? What do you think about when you hear the word "miserable"? Do you think of that poor boy begging for a penny on the sidewalk? Or a sick old man that has nothing left but his last few breaths? What is miserable? And why does feeling miserable is undesirable? Mind you, this still is a rant so it's really not dictionary or professionally checked. But i think, feeling miserable is a necessary emotion. Even knowing that someone else is miserable is actually a good sign.. in a way. Miserable is that feeling when you see that people around you are moving at a pace faster than you, you get left behind, but is still pushed by your conscience to catch up to them, which u probably could, but will probably tire you out. Miserable is closely linked to envy, which in my case actually describes a lot of things about me, things i want to forget...
