Pop up dreams!

[VoyageurNocturne]

OK, so I know that many people say that ou can't wild when you first go to bed without sleeping first, but... on days where I'm very tired, weird thing happen when I fall asleep, i fall into dream scenes. I'll be in my bed, looking at the black in my eyes, thinking about whatever my mind wants, and right at the point where i'm pretty much loosing all consciousness a scene POPS in my eye sight and it startles me awake. Now theses scenes are intense, I'd consider them more real and vivid than real life. The one that I get the most is a night sky with bright stars that spin. It almost looks as though I could see through my eye lids and through my roof to watch the sky in fast motion....... sometimes its a day sky that is purely blue and the sun shines whiter than white... now I don't really get why I see skies, but sometimes I also see flowing dark matter(this may sound fucked, but thats what I baptized it, I don't know how to explain it, it doesn't look like anything I've ever seen in real life). What do you think? Has it ever happened to you? ( I also get the similar thing with audio conversations but its rare and another story)

I get those too when I'm really tired, I'm suddenly in a dream. At that exact moment I know I'm dreaming and I wake back up, like snap wide awake. A few times I have stayed in the dreams, which made them unintentional pre core sleep WILDS, but they were very dark, blurry and low control lucid dreams. I sometimes get those before I intentionally WILD as well. I'll have 3-5 split second lucid dreams and I snap awake again to start the process over. I ususally do get into a decent WILD after suffering through the mini false alarm lucid dreams though so when I get them I know there's a full fledged lucid dream coming soon.

I've had the skies happen to me before. When that occurs, I just imagine that one of those stars is wherever I want my dream to take place and imagine myself moving towards it. That usually works for a spontaneous WILD unless something IRL distracts me

And I thought I was going to read that you had internet explorer popups in your dreams, now that would be scary.

Holy crap! ME TOO! I can't even try to wild without 'em!

yeah I've had it too on WILD attempts. I'd slip away for a second and snap back suddenly and I catch myself Dreaming entire scenes and situations without having noticed any transitional gap between lying in bed and the dreamscene. I remember once I was trying to stay aware and I slipped away loosing consciousness very suddenly, but not too much. I was just in a sort of lowly conscious haze and suddenly I was sitting behind my PC, being very busy with something on it, not even having the slightest notion that I hadn't been there 10 seconds prior when I suddenly realised: "A Dream!" It startled me minorly as I tried to stay calm but it vanished before my eyes very fast.
