Last night I think I imagined my dream coming into existence instead of normally me just appearing in dreamland suddenly. I'm not sure when it happened but I think I remember me seeing just regular blackness then slowly the dreamworld came into existence. I thought it might be a WILD but I wasn't sure that this "event" happened right when I fell asleep. It felt more like it happened much later during the night after I had been sleeping for awhile...

My question is, is it normal (has it happened to any of you) to recognize your dream being created? I'm asking because normally I just appear there and then realize I'm dreaming later.
