      for some reason i have this feeling that i only 'dreamt' about lucid dreaming in my dream. anyhow here are the specifics.
      i'm walking down the sidewalk i always do on my way to school. i'm looking at my feet and for some reason (i can't remember why) i realize that i'm dreaming! i try the nose test and it works! at this point i remember EXTREME joy about being lucid then bounding into the air and hovering over a building before losing lucidity.
      i'm not sure if in the dream i had the premonition that i was just dreaming about being lucid or not. i'm pretty sure that i didn't wake up right after the dream and it continued without me being lucid.
      any thoughts?
      can i chalk this up as my first lucid experience?

      :bravo: Congrats on a lucid dream! That definitely can be considered your first experience, as all lucid dreaming really is is the knowledge that you are dreaming. It doesn't matter for how long, or how much control. Just the fact that you realized that you are dreaming makes you lucid!

      Well I read your article in your signature and thank you for not blasting me as a noob :-). The more I think about it the more sense it makes. I mean I realized that I was dreaming, I definitely caused myself to float above a building. Since that happened under my control, I guess I shouldn't look to much else.
      Thanks and I hope to have another tonight! (hopefully longer though)

      I like how you added the part about having a feeling of extreme joy. Thats the best way to know that you are LD-ing along with the conscious realization that you are at that moment in a dream.

      Congratulations! I'd say, in fact, that you did a lot better in your LD than some people. Some don't do anything other than just stand there saying, "Hey, I'm LD!" and regret later not having tried to do anything. Still others wake up immediately from the excitement. Great work! Keep practicing and remember to RC, RC, RC!!

      Yeah, I have to say that the greatest part about it, other than of course flying, was just the immensity of the joy and enthusiasm I felt. I&#39;ve been reading up on how to prolong it and a lot of it seems to center on not getting too excited. I&#39;m almost positive that that&#39;s what caused me to lose lucidity. I was hovering over the building thinking...&#39;oh my god, oh my god, oh my god&#39; and then the lucidity was gone.
      Calm down...deep breath...focus... :-).
      The hovering was great. I&#39;m not sure why I didn&#39;t fly though. I distinctly remember thinking, &#39;I&#39;d like to fly&#39; but I think in the back of my mind in the lucid I literally thought to myself, "ehh, this is my first lucid, I&#39;d better stick to the hovering". Which makes me a lucid dreaming wuss. :-).
