Oh man all you guys have such cool dreams I'd like to have some as well
Ever since I was 9 years or something like that, all possible cool dreams I can remember, I have ruined because I always becomes aware I am dreaming and goes all rambo on whatever cool story my subconsciouss tries to tell me.
I was in love with this girl and had a dream, about 12-14 years ago, about me being in class and she started talking to me and stuff and it was like great and then I thought I should check if it was a dream (focusing really hard on something to happen, completely destroying anything else I might try concentrate on) and of course I manage to blow the entire school apart.
Then I always thinks, now I can do whatever I want, but I wake up instantly (always the same time in real life).
It is like when I know it is a dream I am just stuck in time in the same moment, for me it is just a moment, but I always wake up right then, when I am in control.
Well the good thing about it was I stopped wedding the bed when I found the method, because everytime I dream about peeing (and peeing in real life as well) I check if it is a dream or not, this way I always wake up if it is a dream and if not, no problem, unless I forget to take my pants off.
Bad thing being that, since then, no matter what my subconsciouss tries to tell me, I always goes rambo on it. Though I honestly think that whatever "message" that is hidden in a dream is in reality just a sum of thoughts generated through whatever we have experienced (and randomly remembers) from our daily life, with the latest events before bed being the most likely (and their connections of course) and then going on from there.

@Ohfor
Well one good thing to come from that is .. at least you dont wet the bed anymore
But as you mentioned, our daily lives influence our dreams. I know for a fact that my dream came about because earlier I'd watched the Simpsons, the one when the comet was about to collide lol.
Im sure I cant be sued for copyright infringement, especially if it was a dream, can I?

@Spacebunny
Impressive, very vivid dream. I once had something similar but it seemed more supernatural in origin. Say had you watched 2012?
@Ohforf
Niice Though I don't have absolute control when I realize it is a dream, it feels wrong when you create a castle in the sky to blast it into pieces and the explosion seems fake.. On the other hand it is hilarious that I even had that thought. The other time I tried to simultaneously change everything and I ended up flying in a cacophony of lights and sounds, it was total chaos

I was several years younger and I was on some sort of family vacation. It felt perfectly warm outside and the mountains were extremely lush. We had a perfectly shiny red van and we were on our way home. We got off the highway to fill up on gas and we get to this enormous paved area where there's several fancy gas stations dotted here and there all in one giant parking lot (didn't make much sense, but I didn't find it odd in my dream). I jumped off the van while it was still moving because I wanted to buy a drink at another gas station, and my dad pulls in to the next station over. I walk in and there's a pretty big line, but I decide to stay anyway. I'm perusing through the drinks and I pull out a mint green one that is labeled "Poison 2". Odd name, but drinks can have some pretty odd names anymore. I get to the cash register and the girl tells me that it's 20 dollars, until the other cashier says that it was only 10 dollars. Still a complete rip off, but I buy it. I walk back outside and the red van shows up just as I'm walking out, so I jump on and we continue the trip home. We're suddenly in this heavily wooded road in the mountains and I'm sitting there drinking my Poison 2. I look at the ingredients and see that it's a blend of cranberry and onion, which didn't seem right, but it tasted fine.

O.o that wouldn't be something I'd like to drink.
I had this really strange dream one week ago, the dream starts with me waking up, it's friday and the day is completely like a normal friday was, school, get hine, eat. the dream ends with me falling a sleep on the evening in the dream. then when I wake up by the bell, I wonder why it rang, because I thought it was saturday, but no, it was friday, and the things that happened that day was the EXACT SAME THING that had happened in the dream, exact into every little detail. really freaky.

Well Ive been having some seriously vivid dreams recently. Last night I had a stupid one. It felt like a quick dream. I was back in London in a rough neighbourhood, near to where I grew up and it was late night. For some strange reason I was driving a really old battered car and had two monkey's (who were friends) in the back. They started going crazy because I wouldn't buy them a MacDonalds. The monkey's were making so much noise, bouncing around in the back of the car, hanging out of the windows, that everyone on the street started chasing my car. I tried to accelerate to the get the hell out, but the car just got slower and slower and I just got angrier and angrier. Then I woke up.
I hate these kind of dreams. I know I mentioned monkey's in a post last night, so that might be the reason
@Elvin - not Ive not seen 2012. I swear it was the Simpsons
Thinking about it now, maybe I should have bought them a MacDonalds Happy Meal. Everybody loves a toy, dont they.

If I should guess, I'd say the most likely scenario is that your memory is playing tricks on you. As events happens you are certain you dreamed them.
I am not saying it is not possible for you to dream an exact day, it is just very unlikely, and the only satisfying way for being sure that your memory isn't tricking you (though not guaranteeing you still aren't dreaming and haven't just dreamt that you dreamt what would happen, which then happens in your dream) is to actually make measurements.
That means predicting outcomes and storing those predictions as evidence, it means testing if you can change how events evolve, such as simply through knowing what will happen, not make it happen.

First thing I'd do is check if they are the same and then try to change them Heard of such dreams before though never had one myself.

As long as you don't get psycho
Today I woke up in a rush, that was one intense dream. I was back in school and was talking with a gym teacher during the break and for a few mins after my gymnastics class begun. I saw the others had assembled so I started heading there, I'd heard the new gym teacher was a bit strict about absences. When I got there the others were nowhere on sight and he was the only one there, I asked where he sent them to. He said he gave me an absence. What for, being a few mins late? I was talking to the other gym teacher? Are you being serious? He would have nothing. I groaned and moved for the nearest door, I heard some voices inside and figured the others were in. He said there are only kiddos there, you should go train with real men. I was already getting pissed by then so I advanced menacingly and told him to watch it. He taunted me and grabbed a bottle of whiskey to take a swig. That did it. I grabbed it from his hand and smashed it at his feet. Man that felt good. He was hesitant to react due to me being taller but I knew I was in trouble, at worst I'd have to deal with the headmaster facing detention.
Which was when I woke up. Kinda funny, I never had any incidents with professors back then nor was I the type to start arguments.

Carcity your abilities are being investigated by the Swedish government. This may lead to a nice career if you make the right decisions.
Elvin you are showing your desire to become a healthy non-drinking gym teacher.

I had a very disturbed sleep this night waking several times, each time I was mid a dream, however one particular dream I do remember (I remembered a lot more some moments ago).
Anyway, to begin with, I've been thinking some about heroes lately, especially inferno as they are my farvorite town, so no wonder I dreamt about heroes to begin with, however suddenly the dream changed completely and I forgot I was dreaming:
For some reason I was dressed as a pink lion, claiming to be a bear, which someone dressed as an elephant, claiming people to have 5 arms+legs in total, did not appreciate.
Okay that was the weird part, here comes the relevant part.
Suddenly there was this lecture, for some reason the usual guy was not there, so someone else was there, teaching us. I sat all in the front and I remember everyone around being much younger than myself.
So for some reason I was not paying attention at all, then the teacher said something about paradox, which made the entire class very impressed and right there I asked him to go through stuff again, just by calmly telling I did not get the previous steps all the way back through the evidence.
Okay so after I very calmly get him to redo the whole thing, I suddenly see something I am at that time convinced is not true, so I yell "NO, YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" (here I started thinking, why did I have to yell? Can't I just talk normally with the guy? Why did I do something I did not want to do?), to which the teacher tries again to explain and I continue yelling "NO! YOU CAN'T". After a third attempt at trying to have a normal conversation with me I yell "NO! YOU CAN'T" again and then the entire class starts talking about how brilliant I am and of course you can't do that, a very loud noice of the class talking with eachother starts and I sit there, getting filled with adreneline (or dopamin or something), probably because I got "famous" in their eyes, impressed them, however I do not want the feeling, I really did not want it, I wanted to have a normal conversation, not act like this.
Anyway here I woke up, still feeling the rush, and then I think back on the part where I started yelling and actually nothing seems wrong with it at all, so I was probably even wrong and all I did was yelling to prove my point.
So stuff I found interesting about this are two things.
First that our logic is really limited to what we can imagine, in the dream world that limit can be very different from the real world, so one can really see oneself from a different perspective.
I mean I was completely convinced that what that guy did was wrong, but when I think about it now, it did not have to be wrong at all, not I can remember it precicely enough (if there actually ever existed an argument in the first place) to reconstruct it, all I remember are z=U greater or equal to x and x greater or equal to z=U and also something about assuming unequality. Also there was something about a tin/can I think.
Anyway the other thing it also showed me is that I somehow subconsciously still trigger to behavior I used to do when I was somewhat younger. Back then I only followed emotions, everything that could trigger a good emotion was considered better than what did not do so. Something that often did that back then was impressing other people, especially girls, in front of an authority, so often in school I would either be the first to solve a "hard" puzzle, or correcting the teacher to which, when I heard people whispering (which I assumed they whispered about how smart I was , heck I even heard it, though I don't know if I just imagined it), I'd get all these happy emotions, like an adreneline rush or something.
Anyway, I turned away from that road some years ago, still thinking back on it relatively often lately, so I suppose that deep down, this behaviour is still a part of me on a subconscious level, as my body still responds to the bad behaviour on the very same rewarding way.

I don't think there is something wrong with following emotions, as long as you don't follow bad ones.

Logic in a dream? Usually the dream's universe has its own unique properties, background and rules. Even things I remember clearly make absolutely no sense even though I was convinced they did at the time. Sometimes it's like the dream is in a state of flux and variables keep changing like you are with x person and sometime later you realize it's person y that has been there all along in x's place. Or the objective of the dream or even the place. You may have seen yourself going around the corner of your house to find yourself at.. your village.
There was a cool episode in Buffy about dreams.
