Getting somwhere

[eMu]

Well i haven't posted for awhile cause the holidays were hectic as hell but right before christmas i managed to attain lucidity for like 5 seoncds. I was in the weirdest place it was like a combination of my work a movie theater and a retirement home and everything felt kind of off but things started to fall into place for me. So i reality checked but i had a cold in real life so my nose was stuffy and i realized that may be it and jammed my fingers all the way up my nose and tried to breath in and realized i could and the reason it was clogged was the cold. I started to look around and everything faded out black went warm and then i woke up. I laughed at myself when i woke up too cause i got so damn close but forgot to spin.

Hey man my first (and only so far) experience was just like that - lasted for like 5 seconds cuz when I realised I was dreaming the feeling was so strange and weird that it scared me and I woke up. I felt it fading and I tried spinning but I guess I just wasn't experienced enough... but it's great to actually have felt it and to know what i gotta try after now.

I thin you're right, that it's an experience thing, because I'm the same as all of you. When I realize that I'm in an LD (which is twice now), I always get either scared or excited, and my heart starts pumping and I wake up. Hopefully next time, we'll all realize that it's an LD and eventually learn to NOT get too worked up about it!

Yeah i think thats going to be the test for me, seeing if the next time i become lucid if i lose it from excitement. I realized i was dreaming everything started making perfect sense and i just got a excited a little and started looking around, but i guess the first relisation is a little rough to keep going.
