April 16, 2025 - Recorded around 5:13 AM I was in my room, and I did several reality checks. I pushed my thumb through my hand, and I plugged my nose, and I was reading the digital clock. Then I tried pushing my hand through a solid object because that is one of the dream control things that you do to get points, and I did that a couple of times successfully. It felt weird, but also kind of normal. I also might have gotten distracted by watching a YouTube video or something, but after a moment I stopped that. After that, I almost got distracted, though, by my little sister. I was thinking about my personal goals, and how I needed to try to do them. So I decided I needed to get away from my distracting little sister because she was trying to get me to play with her, and I said something like, "I can play with you in waking life. Right now, I'm dreaming, so please just let me go." Then I escaped my room by phasing through the wall, and it worked. But sadly, by the time I got to the other side, I was losing stability fast. The dream was closing fast, and I couldn't do much to get anywhere past there. I don't think I even had time to fall. All in all, it was a successful dream. I even got to work on dream control stuff.
