Today, we talked in our English class about dreams and the topic of lucid dreaming. But what is a lucid dream? A lucid dream is a dream in which you are aware that you are dreaming and might even have the ability to control the dream.

Here is an example of how a lucid dream could look like:

You are on the Johnny at the steering wheel. It is night and you are steering the Johnny and you have the feeling that you are dreaming. To check if you are asleep, you can look at your watch. If the numbers on your watch are blurred, you are dreaming. This is called a reality check.

If you realize that you are dreaming – congratulations! You have made it through the first step. Then you can try to control your dream. I personally have never had an experience like that. Especially on the Johnny, I dream less than at home. I think it has to do with the fact that I do not sleep well or deeply.

I asked our medic, Yannik, if he had ever had an experience like that and by chance, he told me that two days ago, he had something like a lucid dream. He told me that he dreamed he was lying on the beach and saw the Reggie. It was really hot and he wanted to go swimming, but as he tried to touch the water, he woke up.

Johanne told me that she had never had something like that, but last night, she dreamed about dolphins. And then, this afternoon, we saw dolphins.

Frida reported to me that a while ago, she dreamed about her lost power bank, and the next morning, she randomly found the power bank in the mess room.

So perhaps our dreams are more than just stories spawning randomly in our heads while we are asleep. Scientists believe that the material in our dreams comes from things in our daily life and from things that move us. Many things may also come from our subconscious, like wishes and fears.
