Fun! I loved the Chile comment! Sometimes dialogue seems like it makes zero sense, haha! It's like... Where did they pull that one from? haha! That or the guy actually was from Chile...

The world is our classroom! Weeeehehehheeeee! But sometimes we do find ourselves perceiving the literal, don't we? :D I've found myself in them from time to time. More often it's more of a testing kind of area or laboratory setting, but that's just me. Be sure and let us know if you go back!

This night had a good mix/balance of everything in it. Dreaming, projecting, false awakenings, and what was some sort of test. I also got to fly as an owl which was flipping awesome! I find that this is more relevant in the Astral Projection section verses dreams since most of the experience was at a higher awareness. Goodie goodie, tests!

The experience started as a dream where I was walking around my old college campus. I wont go into details.

The dream then took a completely different turn. As in, I turned into an owl. Specifically, I knew that I was male now. I've always wanted to be some sort of bird and fly with feathered wings. It was quite the experience! But I would have my time flying later. I flew by one of the dorms and saw a Fennec fox. Curious, I flew close to it and it flipped out, snarling at me. Laughing, I flew back to the cafeteria. I landed on the branches of a tree and decided to talk to someone below. It must have been telepathically because my beak didn't move and I didn't make a sound, but the girl below knew what I was saying. Needless to say she got kind of freaked out, but also thought it was pretty cool. I know knew my home to be back at my apartment complex which was a short distance away (as the owl) so I started flying that direction.

When I noticed that the edge of the lake was natural and not the usual developed side walk, I realized that I was dreaming. This broke the perception that I was an owl and I was now my human self flying through the air along the lake. I was a little excited to be seeing my college area in the non physical. Kind of a complacent excited. That's enough to call Astral Projection for me. But still, I felt it fading. I stopped in the air and started rubbing my hands together, but it faded into a false awakening for some reason. I thought I was awake, but I was in a very different location back in America. I focused back on being over the lake and it came back in full clarity. The colors in the sky were beautiful...

That's where the experience became intense. I was the owl guy again. But now I was some sort of body guard secret agent. My personality was a complete shift from my usual dream personality. I was somewhat of a coward. Actually a huge coward. But I also knew I had an important job. As I flew back to the apartment, I remembered seeing unusual bat activity, whatever that means. They were taking an interest in watching children and they were acting suspicious. Not owl children, human children. The college was replaced with a forest where there was a human camp for kids. There was a treaty between the owls and the bats that the bats would not harm the children. Yeah, I'm aware of how strange that sounds. As an owl, I didn't live in the apartment like a human. There were smaller rooms higher up. I lived in one of those. Genius, really. It wasn't very spacious, but what really do owls need? It was still decorated quite nice. I heard a messenger come by. A cat. I had a feeling they were summoning me for work and it made me queasy thinking about it so I tried to keep them from opening my door, even jamming the lock as they tried to unlock it. I eventually lost and was told I needed to protect our leader. Just great... Flying to the meeting was quite the experience. Feeling the wind through my feathers, it was very different compared with how I usually fly. Different feeling. Especially as an owl. So smooth. I flew high over everything, enjoying myself. I even sang a song. I remember it was beautiful and had wonderful lyrics, but I forget it all now.

When I arrived, it was not weird to me that everyone took human form. Like I said before, I was a guy. Short brown hair, average height. A little on the thin side, but not like physical me. It was set up kind of like the inside of an airplane. Chairs lined the sides with an aisle between. Our leader for some reason took the form of Morgan Freeman. My seat was next to him. There were probably about 12 others seated as well. I was between the leader and a crazy looking bat girl. Her long frizzy dark hair was pulled back, but some strands were missed. She had devious looking eyes and she was terrifying me. She decided to have some fun scaring me. She asked if she knew about the secret society of assassins. I did. The members were insane, all of hem, and hey relished killing. I asked why she asked. She leaned in close and told me "What fun would it be to share secrets?" She also placed a pocket knife kind of thing in my hand. Big bulky thing and the blade was out. It barely pressed against my hand and it cut my skin, indicating how sharp it was. The thing terrified me because it had the insignia of the assassins on it. I say pocket knife, but this thing was really big for one. The blade was several inches long. I folded it up and looked at her. She smiled and winked, playing with her hair. "Just showing my good intentions." She was now unarmed, but that didn't make me feel any better.

The meeting started and I helped testify, still holding the pocket knife. The bats argued that suspicion was not enough to show that they overstepped the treaty and such. All the while the crazy assassin girl kept smiling at me. I suddenly had a terrible feeling. Without thinking, I shouted and threw the pocket knife away from myself and the leader. It exploded and I found myself coughing and waving away the smoke. Everyone stated moving around in a mad rush. I shouted for our leader to get out of there. He responded that he couldn't move because of his hip. He was injured somehow. What?? I pushed forward to defend him while a team moved in to get him. I noticed the still in tact pocket knife and dove for it at the same time as the crazy assassin girl. This whole time I had the internal dialogue of omgomgomgomgomg I'm gonna die! I was terrified!!!

I still managed to grab it first and open the blade which I knew was sharp enough to slice through skin and muscle without much effort. The girl went into psycho mode. I kept warning her to stay back, but it was like she was ready to go after our leader with her bare hands. I was horrified as she tried to get by me because it meant that I cut her. I didn't want to cut her. But it was like she didn't care that she was being cut by the blade. I wont go into too much detail about it, but it was more than what I've wanted to see. She fell back out of sight and I hoped that she was gone for good. I asked someone how our leader was injured and they said that if I looked under his seat I would understand. It was a self triggered gun aimed up to kill himself if he needed to avoid capture. He didn't believe I would be able to defend him so he had tried to kill himself. The irony that our leader had injured himself. I walked to the back and I saw everyone huddled around a tent where they were performing emergency surgery on him. It didn't sound good. I went back to the meeting area and I noticed a kind of belt that went along the floor. The machinery kind of made its own music. I'm trying to remember its importance, but I knew it had to keep on going. Maybe we actually were in a plane? Who knows, but knew mission was to keep it running. Crazy girl, bleeding all over the place, lodged the gears with a rope and panicked, I ran to try and pull it out, asking for help, but no one came. For a while and I was pulling on it like my life depended on it. Finally that crisis was averted, but his whole experience was trying on my mind. I was starting to lose it. After all, I didn't have my usual dream personality. I was terrified this entire time.

I had the knife out. Crazy woman and another woman was there too. She was also a bat. Short black hair. She held out her hands indicating that she was unarmed. I was shaking and kept saying that I didn't want to hurt anyone, but I would if I had to. The new girl kept getting closer. She kept telling me that everything was alright. It was over now. As she got closer, I kept trying to decide if she was a threat, all while staring at the crazy girl who was smiling at me like a sadist. I broke down crying, but weapon still drawn as she hugged me. It was all over now and I did a good job.

It faded into another false awakening. I knew so because I heard my mom and my brother. I was laying on my back under the covers debating whether or not I should get up. My mom was saying something to my brother about turning down the AC or something. Then I woke up for real on my side back in China.

That was nuts!

Now I suppose once I rose my awareness, and since I did so while already asleep, the test was comprised of the elements already present. I passed and after waking up it was awesome, but while it was happening I was literally in hysterics even the "players" trying to calm me down afterwards.

ive been trying everynight since i fist made this post and have not got there yet, i dont even feel the vibrations anymore just feel numb and is this due to trying to often should i forgett about for a while it and do it less often twice i have woken up at say 4am and attemptged but leaves me feeling numb and like im progressing untill say an hour passes and i find ive fallen asleep agian

Don't be discouraged! I have been trying for months to have a conscious obe in the evening and it hasn't happened yet. But that doesn't mean I haven't had plenty of excellent experiences in the non physical! There are other ways to get there such as within dreams. Sometimes if I stop trying suddenly it will have a spontaneous obe. Also, I've had much better luck in the mornings. Just keep yourself open :D

hehe... In my case I'm not exactly human so the typical reaction is a bit different. It was more a comment just for the sake of being funny at my own expense.

Really, anything can happen at this point. A lot of people report some sort of school, place of learning kind of thing... But it can vary in how we perceive it. If you look it up in the search bar it'll probably give some good examples. Between retrievals and astral school. :D
#31
I had written it down over a few hours, at first I didn't remember the ending then it came back smacking me in the face.

I ended up sharing with the guy that I had seen him in my dream and that there was a fox in it. He kept insisting that he was flattered and didn't judge so I should share. So I did. And he responded "Hm... I think this means that you feel that I am the only one who can help you." or something like that, haha! It ended up being fine and I worried for nothing.
#32
I haven't experienced being a hawk or falcon before... but I bet its awesome. I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't fly with wings, though. Floating just isn't my thing. >_<

Maybe I will get some courage and ask. He is a cool person from the little I know, but bringing something like this up out of the blue... Part of me wishes I could be that open, haha! Really does!
#33
I've never noticed a pattern of it being day or night in accordance to the physical. But then again I never think about it. Question, if I project from China to America would it be opposite? haha! It's been both ways. xD

Oh, this is specifically to API... um... I don't see why it wouldn't be dark for someone and light for another.
#34
Sometimes when I take a form other than human it's like a human in an animal's body. I might look like an animal to myself and others in the dream or experience, but when moving, it's like my human body is an overlay. But that's not what always goes on. It's actually one thing that stood out to me in this experience. I wasn't a human as a fox. I _was_ the fox, if that makes sense. And trust me, I was booking it when I was running away from those kids. I felt my paws hitting the ground, remembering how short my back legs felt. When I ran up the tree, felt my little stubby nails scraping against the bark. My fur. Just everything was in such detail. And the consistency of it all. Just too wild. Now mentally wise, I was not a fox. I have had experiences when my mentality had been altered, but in this experience I was completely me mentally.

I wanted to add on here that I talked to the guy even though we had only really officially spoken once before. It came up that his birthday was coming up and I told him not to party too hard. He asked if I party much now that I'm married and I told him I was never a party person. Now this right here is funny: he said "Come on, I remember high school! There's a wild animal in you!" Then it hit me that I used to wear a fox tail back in high school. I was like o snap! "Are you talking about the fox tail? I forgot about that!" "Yeah! I loved the tail!" I had totally forgotten. SO FUNNY! Of course I was too shy to say "Hey, on the topic of me with a fox tail, did you happen to be freaked out last night by a fox because that was totally me", but it was still funny.

When I fly, people usually start screaming.

No, seriously.

That sounds like an excellent experience! Keep sharing! :D
#36
Have you ever encountered someone you know in the non physical and it feels so real that you wonder if they have any recollection of it at all? I saw someone I knew. I remember seeing him in high school before, but we never talked until a reunion once. All I really know is that he works on films and the fact that he showed up out of no were was really weird. I also feel a little bad because I made him feel like he was tripping balls batshit crazy. I kind of want to ask, but a big part of me is telling me that's a very BAD idea, haha! I don't know, maybe just for shiggles. I have not labeled this as a dream because it was very different in that it felt just like reality, the level of detail was astounding without the ream like air to it, and the people I encountered acted very independent. The clarity was astounding.

I was at a school and I found myself turned into a fox. I believe the first time was on purpose. But I specifically remember that my clothes didn't change with me so that probably caused most of the problem.

I ran outside and the grass was so green... lots of willows. It reminded me of the Summer Palace here in China. Most of the students of various ages were outside. I walked around exploring, but ended up being noticed. Mistaken for a dog with big ears, a few little kids tried to chase me. I ran away and actually right up a tree. "Is that a dog or a cat?" a kid asked. "It's a fox," a tall guy answered. I recognized him as someone I know. He's just starting out in the film industry and while I saw him in high school, we never really met until a reunion. Very interesting person. He got the kids to leave me alone and I ran somewhere secluded so I could change back. Bits of thorns and burs got stuck in my human palms and I started pulling them out. It stung and was kind of irritating. Why that would happen I had no idea. I had to change back because kids were coming and... well... I was naked.

Walking along the side of the school, I started looking for a way in. The outside doors were too heavy for me. As I walked towards the front I noticed my dad entering from the front of the school and I assumed he came to pick me up. Uh oh... Gotta get in. I could see through the glass at the room that had my clothes and yep... there they were in the corner.

I had an idea and I ran back to the kids outside. The tall guy could help me. I ran up to him and jumped around him getting his attention. He thought it was very weird, but the kids were amazed. He started walking back to the school and I followed right beside him. Yeah, he was majorly weirded out, but I don't think he minded either. He actually felt kind of special. He was talking to the kids as he walked and one of his comments kind of irked me, but  can't remember it now. Maybe something about how I must have been someone's pet and he was going to try and find my owner.

He had to go to a tutoring class so he was going to leave me in a classroom while he was there. Jerk! But really, he didn't know any better. At least I was inside now. I pounced up onto the door knob and managed to force it open. In the hallway... I went to the room with my clothes and there were a bunch of kids in there cleaning the room. ugh!!! One of them thought I was a kitty. They scooped me up and it's not like I could hurt her or anything. I just kind of had to put up with it. She dragged me outside to play with her friends and I wiggled to escape. One kid had a spray bottle of some sort of foam and sprayed me, oh man, I was ticked! It had the consistency of shaving cream, but I think it was some sort of soap. After being all lathered up, I smacked the can away and snarled, scaring the kid. The other ones were unfazed and sprayed me with a hose to get it off. I looked like a drowned rat and looked so tiny and thin with all my fur stuck close to my body. I shook and my fur and it stuck out like crazy. The kids all laughed as I did it. Now I know how my dog feels when I wash him.

I escaped, running away. Horrible children! I dried pretty quickly because I was outside and decided to try and get inside again. A bunch of kids were playing by an open door so I ran over trying to get in. There were a bunch of dogs, though mostly smaller than me. I nipped at them, keeping them away and ran inside. I slid right into my dog. He was bigger than me by a long shot. I was thinking oh crap, he was going to chase me, but he actually recognized me. Growling to keep the other dogs away, he was actually protecting me, which was awesome.

I ran past the kids and back into the hallway, looking for the tall guy from before. Still in tutoring. Darn! I needed to get him out of there! Looking around along the wall, I tried to find a way to set the fire alarm off. That would get everyone out. Climbing up to a higher ledge on the wall, I made it high enough to one of the sensors. Because I was a kisune, I knew I could make fire from my tail(s). Yeah, it was like my previous dream. Physically it looked like I had one tail, but non physically I actually had more than one that I could see kind of like out of the corner of my eye. I rubbed them together and made a bright red flame, setting off the alarm. Things got crazy and everyone started running around to get out. The tall guy noticed me again and it was almost like he knew it was me who set off the alarm.

The guy started to get suspicious that I wasn't just a normal fox. This was good for me because I realized that I couldn't change back, and I couldn't talk. I had a running commentary in my head, but I couldn't share it with anyone. That didn't stop me from trying to communicate with that guy. I had his attention. Of course it sounded like I was just barking. Eventually he started guessing by asking yes or no questions and I would not or shake my head back. The poor guy thought he was tripping. He ended up taking me in his car and started driving to Beijing. Somehow I had expressed that I wanted to go home and that was in Beijing. I was going to somehow communicate Changping as we go closer. Yeah. Apparently in the dream we were some distance away from Beijing because I remember going through the checkpoint to get into the district.

I think I made it home, but the guy thought he was crazy. It makes me really want to bring it up to him, but like I said before, we only talked to each other once at a reunion.

Before sleep? Like projection wise? I haven't been trying the past few nights, but now that I'm thinking about it, I think I did last night. Oh drat, what was it? I'll get back to you on that one.

Welcome to Dreams! / Pirate Captain of Monsters
March 21, 2013, 02:21:39
Had a wild dream last night I might turn into a book because it was such an interesting concept.

I was the captain of a sort of pirate ship kind of thing. I had a crew and we were traveling somewhere across the ocean. The water was so blue and looked like crystal. We were attacked by my nemesis. Yes, I had a nemesis. They attacked the ship, but I knew they were more after me than anything else. My nemesis was a pretty big guy. Maybe even a hook for a hand. Full bearded. Very pirate like. I was a human girl. Why do I specify that? Because my crew was almost entirely not human. I'll elaborate later. I was tossed from my ship and cast into the water. A few members of my crew actually saved me. I would have drowned. On the shore, I said that I had given up the sea. What was left of my crew was so upset.. Yeah, not human. I got a pep talk from some sort of bard that was part of my crew. He was sort of like a Dracula like vampire. My crew was an array of monsters! With a young human girl as their captain. Call me crazy. It was hard for them to cheer me up, but they kept on encouraging me to not give up. The vampire's home wasn't too far so we would regroup there where they wished for me to regroup a crew then head to the docks to commandeer another ship.

At the Vampire's house, I met his wife who totally made a comment about how he should only go if his salary was raised. Another monster commented that he only plays music and sings so why would that be worth the same as hard labor. His wife was tall, thin, and kind of a stickler.

At one point my perspective changed. I was a fairy locked up with a bunch of other ones. I knew I was actually very small because everything around me was so large. A man had us... Raven Thornblood, was it? I'm always terrible at remembering names. I was a male fairy and actually wasn't incredibly fairy like, though I had the wings and was like a little person. He wanted the other me to break them out and he would show off his awesome powers and use them to help us on our quest.

The other me eventually broke them free and the fairy I was before transformed... into a little budgie. Yeah, those here his awesome powers. Turning into a parakeet. Well, I had my pirate parrot now!

Somewhere along the lines, I got really ticked and motivated to go back to the ocean and stop my nemesis. It was a much wider scale that he was effecting, not just me. As we were running to the ship, we were being chased by werewolves. As we were just about there, I got bit in the arm, tearing my thick jacket. It was actually a werefox specifically, not wolf. Safe on the ship, I assured that it had only gotten my jacket, but I knew it had bit me. And off we sailed.

This is sort of an abridged version. There was a lot going on there and it'll take me a while to sort it all out, haha
#39
The only childhood dream I remember is a recurring nightmare of a dark alley, green acid, and a really ticked off black cat. Oh, and floating in my garage. Haha! Then the one time running around lucidly in my neighborhood. Ok, maybe now that I think about it, I do remember a few dreams and now that I look back on it, the later two were most likely OBEs in the RTZ. Maybe if I pondered more, more would come back to me?

If you believe something is taking your energy you will feel drained. If you believe you have energy that can be taken, it is possible to be taken. I used to believe something was taking my energy. It was some sort of dark looking thing that kind of looked like a dark sentient plant. After getting all worked up about it and it bothering me for a while I thought that it was silly to let it walk all over me and I imagined myself overcoming it and destroying it. I was fine after that. Was it me battling the thing off? Or me believing it could no longer hurt me? hm... :)

Regardless, belief is powerful.

Congratulations! Wooo hooo! *throws confetti*

That's so awesome, especially for a first experience!

It might not be that you were denied a guide so much as denied them being revealed. Perhaps it is a way of giving you a hint to be independent, at least for now. Explore and enjoy. If you need help, I'm positive a guide will be there to help you. :)
#41
That's awesome!! I will recognize settings from dreams when I was little, but I haven't been able to watch them again.
#42
haha! Oh noes, parsley! And the anti parsley cult!

Awesome that you thought of calling the dragon and flying away. Wonderful mental image of the doggies, haha!!

Quote from: spirited away on March 16, 2013, 14:21:54
amazing, interesting, simply cool. thanks for sharing. I have a question you may or may not know. I always wonder why do the guides need us human that travels in the astral to retrieve?  I have not personally done any retrievals.  Any thoughts?

I think it has to do with growing. I'm trying not to make any real judgements about it because I don't want to get any incorrect ideas lodged in my head. I'm just taking them as they come and fully enjoying every experience. I find myself in a situation and there's really only one thing that I can do. What I feel is right. And I love it!

Szaxx - It probably would have made more sense if I was near the central mass. I think I was farther out, though. Between losing my form and the coolness of everything, I found myself more distracted by how fast everything was moving. The bit you said about knowing when to jump, have you traveled across the galaxy like that? It quite literally was a jump.

I've just about always had a form. Even if I was formless, I usually had another "me" that had a form at the same time. What you're describing sounds awesome!

I don't think I've failed since that one a while back with the vagrant, but even then... I think that fail was for a reason. I think I grew from that particular one more than ones I have passed.

I still can't get over how amazing and awestruck I am by these. Sure, I don't have much luck leaving my body on command and in these I don't get to stray from the storyline and, for instance, fly around my neighborhood... But these experiences are invaluable to me. So exciting... I'm so lucky to be able to remember them. I hope it keeps up!
#44
I've been having retrievals and the like like crazy recently varying from every other day to two at night. I haven't been sharing them all, but this one was especially wild so I wanted to share. Especially because I have ALWAYS wanted to fly up into space from the planet. Granted, I was under the belief that everything was normal on account of the type of experience, but it was still amazing!

I can joke and call this one an anti retrieval, haha! Rather than retrieving someone I helped return them.

Pretty much, I was visiting a planet and I came across a creature that wasn't supposed to be there. It was on another planet! I found out later on that its home was pretty much on the other side of the galaxy! It was kind of like some sort of blueish looking creature that looked almost like it was a clear plastic with a blue inside that kind of lit up. I was actually a child. Small enough to fit in my hand. I didn't see a problem taking it home, but rather than taking a ship, I went quite literally myself.

Floating up into the air, I zoomed through the atmosphere and into space. It was such a wild feeling and really didn't take much time at all. In a few moments I could travel to another solar system. The only thing I can really compare it to is kind of like the game spore when you can zoom from being on a planet and out.

I took the little creature by several planets looking for its home. Each planet was unique and the colors were so interesting, though of course I've lost the details on them. I picked up information on our travels that its planet was on the other side of the galaxy. Well, I said I would take it home, so that's what I was going to do.

Now, crossing he galaxy was incredibly wild because I lost my physical form. I could see the galaxy and how it was spinning. I kind of got pulled into the spin and waited for the right time to jump to the area I wanted to go. Wild.

Well, I got the little guy home! haha! It was surprising because his daddy was actually huge and intimidating.

I wish I could remember the details about the planets. I know one had an orange sky. There was tall grass and it was green, but an odd shade, kind of like sea foam. The buildings were rounded and I remember seeing very high above me some sort of bridge or overpass.

Another planet was dark and kind of swampy. I'm trying to dig for more details, but they're long gone... :/

Oh well, awesome experience!

Welcome to Astral Chat! / Re: Psychonauts
March 16, 2013, 13:05:45
This is a real game. Yes.

http://www.psychonauts.com/

Here's a blurb I found about it

Welcome to the twisted world of Psychonauts. The hero of this game is a boy
named Razputin, or Raz. A natural psychic, Raz escaped the circus and his
abusive father to journey to a camp for psychic children: Whispering Rock
Psychic Summer Camp. At Whispering Rock, young psychics are trained to
become Psychonauts--secret agents in charge of cleaning up the world's
mental mishaps.

But, something sinister is afoot, as campers turn up missing their brains.
It's up to Raz--with a little help from an assorted cast of strange people
and even stranger creatures--to find the missing brains and restore mental
peace and order to Whispering Rock.

You control Raz through the environs of Whispering Rock--the real world--
and through the minds of various denizens of Whispering Rock--the dream
worlds. Most gameplay takes place in the dream worlds, as you use Psycho-
Portals to project your astral self into minds. If you think the real world
is strange, wait until you get a look at some of the literally twisted
dream worlds.

Each dream world is completely unique: from an orderly, cubist mind to the
varicolored world of a painter of black velvet. Each level has its own
challenges and puzzles and requires a mixture of skillful control and
strategic thinking. No two worlds are alike, and the game will in turn
challenge and amaze you.

Your health is measured in two ways: mental health and astral projection
layers. Your mental health is represented by a series of brains shown in
the upper left of your screen. Each brain represents 4 points of health,
and various enemies will remove one or more points of health on each hit.
As you progress through the game, you will increase the maximum number of
health points you have.

You also have astral projection layers, which are analogous to lives in
most games. Each time you lose all your mental health, you lose one astral
projection layer. When you lose all your mental health and you have no more
astral projection layers, the game either ends (if you are in the real
world); or, you are kicked out of the mind you were in and you must start
over again from the beginning. As you play, you can pick up additional
astral projection layers (new lives) as well as increase the number of
layers you can have at once.

So... I started playing this video game and it is hilarious! The characters look like they're right from a Picasso painting and you can really see the creativity that went into it.

Basically you're this kid with psychic abilities that runs away to a psychic summer camp to learn how to develop his abilities. It's run by a complete warmonger and the first lesson in the class is for the students to astrally project themselves into his mind for an obstacle course. Now while in this guy's mind it's like a dreamscape of a chaotic battle zone. Your health is pretty much mental clarity and when you run out you get booted back to your body.

I've only played a little so far, but the characters are a riot, the design is awesome, the dialogue is having me giggle like crazy, and the plot is looking promising. I'm excited to play more! There's tons of references in it that remind me of you guys. xD Too funny!

My husband keeps laughing at me because I ran into an enemy... Freaking PSYCHIC BEARS. What the crap?!?! Seriously?! I keep yelling "Freaking PSYCHIC BEARS!" haha!

Congratulations! It's amazing what little tweaks to how we think can produce awesome results. In a way it kind of feels like a slap in the face. But a good slap in the face :D

I realized I missed the point of the post, haha! Good job, me!

Mine are pretty even. Sometimes night, sometimes day. Though I do not find it hard to see when it's at night.
