EXTREMELY odd sleep patterns

1.) Out-of-reach sleep

I want to see if anyone else has this problem, as I've mentioned it to many friends, and they all always at me like I'm crazy. Often when I'm sleeping, I enter this sort of "trance". First off, I do NOT sleep-walk, sleep-talk, snore, rustle around, or anything like that (or at least I'm told I don't). However, nearly every other night, I hit this trance that I just mentioned, where I'm half-awake, half asleep. I'll lay in bed seemingly-awake. I know I'm awake, b/c I can look around the bedroom and see everything, and can do the "pinch-test" to make sure I'm not dreaming. However, my mind would be COMPLETELY in a whole other realm of thought, where normal principles of nature don't apply (I'll explain this in a second). When I'm in this trance, my SOLE desire is to get sleep, as I'm VERY tired and just CAN'T get to sleep at all. However, as mentioned, w/ my mind being in it's own little realm, I'm under the impression that in order to get sleep, I must complete certain tasks. A quick example would be to "win a soccer game". I'd be laying in bed TRYING to get to sleep, but I'm convinced that I must win this soccer game that I'm imagining in my head in order to get to sleep. So what I often do is close my eyes and imagine the hell out of a soccer game that I'm playing, and try as hard as I can. .KICKING in bed and rustling around (and I'm well aware of this) trying to win. I know I'm not sleeping, b/c when I open my eyes, I can look around and be back in the bedroom, where I'll convince myself to go back to imagining myself in this soccer game. I will do this for honestly hours at a time, and still not "snap out of it". Again, I don't know if I'm conscious or what. I'm WELL aware that I'm awake, but my brain is functioning in COMPLETE different principles, and it doesn't understand that if I lay there long enough, I'll sleep, rather it thinks I need to win the damned soccer game. To make matters worse, it's one of those deals that no matter how HARD I try to win.. it's always impossible. I always run in slow-motion, or the ball always seems to bounce away from me, or when I shoot it, it always goes SAILING away. Also.. let the records stand, I don't play soccer (not often anyways), so it's never based off of anything that I do often, rather random events.

They are normally quite a bit more complicated than that though, often more along the lines of me trying to do unimaginable feats, such as moving things w/ my mind. I'd be convinced that to fall asleep, I need to levitate the pin on the counter, however I just stand there thinking HARD about it, with no result ever. They are VERY weird, and VERY rarely make sense, unlike the Soccer one.

2.) Lucid Dreams

I often have Lucid dreams, which is pretty sweet, b/c I'll be WELL aware it's a dream in my dream, making me want to do outrageous events in the dream, knowing there will be no consequences for my actions. For example, I'd be driving, and I'd KNOW it's a dream, so then I'd go off on a high-speed chase, and when I get stopped, I'd get out of the car and just start flying away, and be able to do pretty much w/e I want.

3.) Exhaustion

I'm almost convinced this is due to my intense school schedule up at UTexas, as well as currently working 50-60 hour weeks, but I want to know if anyone else shares some of THESE same issues. I'm often extremely exhausted, or at least, have been so much more than I used to be. I've had about the same number of sleeping hours as I did in HS, before I had this problem. I generally only get about 6 hours of sleep or so, and find that I'm EXTREMELY exhausted. I know this is absolutely normal, but I slept the same amount when I went to HS, AND I had sports practice then as well, and didn't have an exhaustion problem. It wasn't until I got to college that it hit. It's most likely my work-load, but the weird thing is that despite me only getting like 6 hours of sleep a day, if I have a day off where I don't have to wake up early, I can sleep for IMMENSE amounts of time. I'm talking, 15+ hours (probably more, but last time I slept that long, I had to get up..). Shouldn't my body try to stay consistent w/ it's sleep cycle, rather jump from an average 6 hour sleep, to more than twice that? I also find that when I eat food, I get EXTREMELY tired. I can be sitting at Chick-fil-A on break, eat a sandwich, then halfway through, feel as if I'm about to unwillingly pass-out. I do NOT have a size-issue, and am perfectly fit. I actually have a very fast metabolism, and have never had weight or health problems (minus those that may come from lack of sleep). I also am NO stranger to going to sleeping for 6 hours, when it felt like literally the blink of an eye. Ya, it's only 6 hours, but when I often sleep for 10+ hours on my days off, I wake up and it STILL feels like it just FLEW by, often faster than many 6 hour nights, and I feel extremely mal-rested. Often my 2 hour combat naps replenish me much better than 8 hours of sleeping.

Ya, it may not have much to do w/ Aliens and UFOs, though I feel they go hand in hand, as many people have complained of similar problems, and who show signs of abduction. I've only had one "weird" instance at the beginning of college that I had aliens "abduct" me in my sleep. I know it couldn't have happend though, as it was from a day-time nap. My roommate was in the room for the most part, then went out to the fields IMMEDIATELY outside my window to run around the track. I dreamt I had tests run on me, but I couldn't tell you all of what happened, as it's very faint. I woke up at about 10 though, so it was still dark, and a few minutes before my roommate came back upstairs to the room. However, when I woke up, I looked around the room absolutely petrified, and again, in my own little "fantasy" world, not knowing what was going on, and have unconscious. I looked towards the window, and there was my roommate's hat-rack w/ a few white hats on top that looked like a gray's head, and was SO terrified right after the dream, that I saw that and was STRICKEN w/ shock. I recall what seemed to be a lightning strike outside and instant thunder afterwards, and I was absolutely paralyzed looking at this hat-rack. Literally, I was just under utter shock, and was shaking SO much, when after a few seconds I snapped out of it, and then realized it was a hat-rack. My roommate came in, like I said, just 5 minutes after this event, and all seemed normal. I really don't think I was abducted, as I was mainly asleep during daytime, and when it was dark, my roommate was running laps just immediately outside of the window (dorm on campus). I WAS looking at a lot of pretty freaky pictures of aliens the night before, however, and that was mainly when I first started learning all about this stuff, and was still very freaked from it. I'm almost positive that it was just a nightmare, then when I woke up, I wasn't "completely" awake yet, so imagined a lightning strike and THOUGHT I saw something, and the mixture of everything just put me in shock.. Besides that, I've never had any other weird circumstances dealing memories of being abducted or of seeing aliens.

I don't know.. maybe I'm just crazy, or over-hyping something that's extremely common. Anyone have $.02 they'd like to add? I'm thinking that I just have an over-active imagination, and my brain often dwells into it's own fantasy-world when I'm that exhausted and just waking up/going to sleep, so things end up weird for me.

Potential UFO Appearance?

Last night, the strangest thing happened over here. I was on the internet at about 2:30 in the morning browsing around, trying to find something to do. Well, anyways, all was well and quite.. no distractions going on. It was actually very eery, as no crickets were chirping or anything.. just absolutely no noise. I remembered thinking about how strangely quiet it was, but no crickets chirping is never too big a deal, b/c over here in a sub-urban neighborhood, there are nights when they just aren't chirping.

Regardless.. these are those nights that I don't wear headphones, b/c you almost expect something to happen, and you don't want it to happen when looking into a blinding laptop.. as the rest of the room is completely dark in comparison, and someone could break in through my window, have me at gunpoint, and unless he gets in front of the laptop.. I wouldn't know. But now I'm rambling.

All of a sudden, a lot of dogs just started BARKING and going crazy. 6/10 or so of the houses around us have dogs in their backyard, so it's quite a common thing. But I mean.. these dogs were going AT it for about 10 seconds until another strange thing happened (by this time.. I was suspicious of SOMETHING, and aliens weren't on my mind). There was a second noise coming from outside. It was like a DEEP, LOW rumble that slightly tremored the entire house. It lasted for about a second before the volume started subsiding rapidly, which prolonged for about another 4-5 seconds I'd say? I'm not quite sure on details, as at this time, I was pretty damn spooked.. It had REALLY felt like a UFO was close, and just took off making a loud noise, and got much more quiet the further it went from here. After that, the only noise was the dogs continually barking, which had slowly dissipated a half minute to a minute later.
But the WEIRD thing was.. when I first heard the deep noise, my laptop screen had started messing up. Out power shot on-off a few times (I can tell b/c the fan turned off, then on, then off, then back on. Also, the AC unit would stop and go, and.. you can kind of tell when the power goes out). The weirdest thing of all, however, was that my laptop's screen brightness didn't flick on/off as it normally does when we lose power. The screen had actually undergone some sort of quick distortion and morphing for a bit less than a second. I've never seen that happen before, and am not sure if that's common when you give and take power to/from a laptop, but I've never seen it before.

I was wondering if it was a transformer (the electrical box.. not the movie or the shape-shifting cars) that had malfunctioned temporarily, as I know that happens sometimes. However, that would not have had the noise that I had heard, and more importantly, I don't find a coincidence of all these dogs barking at once, then as they do, a quick transformer malfunction, and a loud, DEEP noise. Does anyone have any idea of what this could be? I talked to my family and one of my neighbors, and they all mentioned they heard it as well, starting w/ the dogs. The neighbors didn't notice the power was out until they saw the blinking alarm clock that said.. yep.. power went out. However, my dad, being the heavy sleeper he is, slept through it all.. After it happened though, sheeit.. I'll tell you, I had no idea what to expect, and I closed the laptop real quick, got my eyes adjusted to the dark room, and had just WAITED for a bit, ready to pounce on anything coming through my window (wasn't worried about the door, as we have those doors that beep when a window or door was opened). Nothing eery happened that night that I recall though..

Does anyone else have a take on this? I was honestly ready to soil myself when this was all going down. I'm not afraid of aliens at all, nor of what I've seen and heard, nor even the projections in the future of aliens coming down or USA beginning another holocaust. But when there REALLY felt like there was a VASTLY superior technological race of some sort.. potentially PROWLING around my house or any nearby, it's a bit creepy. Again, I'm not afraid of dying or death or anything, but the idea that this thing could possibly grab me through a wall, bring me up w/ them, then probe me or run all sorts of tests imaginable on me.. REALLY irks me. Fine.. run tests on me, but please, have me be dead when you do, or AT LEAST unconscious..

What do you guys think?

Rising USA vs NWO?

Ok, so I feel familiar w/ all of these conspiracy theories, but have a few quick questions that I would like clarified if possible..

I understand that there could very well possibly be a secret NWO that has representatives from a few different countries, USA being one of them. So.. if this were the case, would Bush know of this? w/b our gov't? I know that we the people would NOT be told of it, of course, but does the President of the US know? Also, are they in charge of all of USA's actions, such as the war on terror? I understand that they could very easily set something like this up, but wasn't sure if it was Bush, the NWO forcing it upon US (like the NWO possibly causing 9/11), or does Bush know of them, and is aware that he's nothing more than just a dummy and a scapegoat? I know a lot of the answers can't be TRULY answered unless I ask the right people, but based off of popular beliefs, can anyone tell me anything? Also, the conspiracy theory behind 9/11.. is it more popular that USA caused it, or the NWO caused it?

Now then, as if that wasn't enough confusion, how about this next part.. I'm aware that US troops have been practicing Martial Law in case times of war get out of hand.. at least that's what is said. I'm also aware that it apears the US is building NUMEROUS concentration camps all over the US. If this is new to you, google: operation garden plot, rex 84, and operation cable splicer. Supposedly, when in times of war, they can imprison any group they feel a threat (from celigious cults, to protestors, to anti-gov't groups), and use deadly force on them. The operations have also claimed that they have control over train stations, and that there are ~800 concentration camps already set up (disguised). Also, MANY have observed military taking control of previously shut-down train stations that have new security systems, fences that keep people IN not OUT, quite a number of USAF and USAA trains in front, new gas installations and furnaces, and are under serious military watch. LARGE budgets have been used for renovations, as well as helicopters and other military vehicles at these.. To ME.. the whole picture sounds pretty fishy..

My concern is.. if this is happening (can very easily happen if we get into another war, possibly w/ Iran, as long as we undergo martial law which is being practiced), is this works of the NWO or USA, or both? Are they joint forces, or does it seem like USA is starting to buck up AGAINST this NWO?

My last question.. Is anyone familiar w/ Project Blue Beam? It's supposedly a project aimed at breaking everyone's previous religions, creating a new one as a standard, and eliminating the weaker people who fall for this, as a means of suicide or something of the sort. It's supposed to have a lot of psychology involved, and in a way, hypnosis. Basically, using a number of waves, that send images and messages to your brain. People get these messages, and think they're messages from a god talking to them, and giving them instructions... POSSIBLY leading them to their death, or potential slaves. My question is.. what is everyone elses views on this? does anyone around here believe that this can, and possibly will, happen? In no manner do I doubt them being able to send messages directly to our brain. I'm nearly 100% sure that our brain can pick up certain frequency vibrations that sends it a "message" of some sort, but probably differs from person to person. But the entire thing as a whole?! Are there any other big projects that I didn't mention that are important, or potentially important?

thanks everyone!

My view on aliens

So.. I basically compiled a few points I could muster up, now that finals are done, and threw them all together into a quick write-up. I just basically talk about why I feel aliens exist, as well as a few of my other beliefs with their motives and technology. If you have time, you can read it here:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/2977238/Aliens

Also, I did NOT mention the underground theory, as I'm still a bit fresh with it. I believe that there are underground bases, as I've mentioned in the article. However, I'm not so sure about the whole "colonizing amongst other aliens and humans" down there.. I believe in Dulce, but some things feel TOO radical, and many of the stories I have heard fit that category. I'm not saying it doesn't go on.. just that I will need a bit more proof before I believe it..

Also, I'll attach the .doc file as well if you're interested. I'm limited to text per post, so I had to do it :/
