Dream Frequency and Intensity

I've never really tried to control my dreams, from what I know, but as for what I dream about, that almost always has something to do with what I spend a lot of time thinking about before sleeping. Lately, of course, its been my (recently made) ex boyfriend. I find it really frustrating trying to get over a guy and stop thinking about him, when in my dreams we're usually together. Its always been that way after I've been broken up with, though.

Usually, I remember my dreams fairly easily. I should start writing them down again... I have a word document to keep track of my dreams. Its mostly for the benefit of my writing, but writing them down is supposed to help you remember them more and more.

Also, I'll find that my dreams are connected with dejavu (sp?) some times, mostly concerning places. I once had a dream where I was standing on a field, and a little bit away on a hill was a windowless brick building. I didnt remember the dream until a high school soccer game, when we were the visiting team. Facing the school from the fields was the school's gym... a windowless brick building. It was freaky, but its actually happened a couple times.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I've heard that keeping a journal actually helps to remember the dreams. As you focus on trying to remember your dreams, it becomes easier and easier. Not sure how it would help lucid dreaming though. At this point in my life, I'd prefer to not be dreaming at all. O_o;

There's nowhere I can't reach.
