non-dream non-lucid lucid

Last night I went to bed a little bit late, but I decided to try to WILD or DEILD, depending on whether I moved or not. I kept my alarm set to its normal time (6:00) in case I fell asleep and never got a chance to try WILDing. I woke up at some point and used pain (hand under body) as an anchor. I woke up in my room, knowing I was in a dream because of the way it felt. I tried to make the light turn on by telling myself that I had a motion sensitive light and then waving my arm around (I thought of this archetype last week) but it didn't work. I did a reality check to make sure I was dreaming. Palm check was normal, but nose pinch failed. I tried messing with my brother, but he didn't react at all whatsoever, he acted like he was dead.

That's all I remember of this dream. I almost didn't remember it, but after I had woken up I decided to try WILDing again, and after I went to the bathroom I remembered it. I tried WILDing for a while, but I couldn't fall back asleep with the pain anchor. Eventually my alarm clock rang, but I was already awake when it rang. I figured the sun would come up soon, so I put on a cover for my eyes and used it as an anchor as well. I have a hard time remembering some of the next dream, but I do remember it to be fairly vivid. I woke up having a false awakening, though not in my room. I soon realized with a nose pinch RC that it was a dream. The palm check RC still worked, so apparently it isn't an accurate RC for me. I started looking around, without stabilizing unfortunately. I was in a colorful room without any doors. There was a slide hole though, and some other exit. I went into the slide thing and told it to go to a certain person's house. Two of my friends appeared on the slide with me. There were a lot of different pathways, though I seemed to have some control over them. I think I lost a lot of lucidity while going down this slide. I reached into my friend's shirt pocket to take something out of it, but I can't remember what. I turned my head up a little quickly and found myself in the same bed that I had woken up in in my dream, and "waking up" as if I had moved too quickly in my dream and woken up because of it (this has happened to me before).

I was disappointed because of it, but I did a RC, and after a few seconds, realized that the nose pinch RC had failed. This made me happy. I looked and found the other passageway out of the room and went in it. (There may have been some dream here that I don't remember, but maybe not.) I appeared at a staircase. I went up, but these strange tiny colorful walking fairy-like women (I have no idea how else to describe them) shooed me off, and for some reason I went back down the stairs. I started thinking about fuzzy billiard balls, and like before, I turned my head too quickly, and it felt like I had woken up from a dream. I was standing up in a store-like place though, and I saw two or three of my friends from school. I was dissapointed that it ended again of course, but I quickly considered the possibility that I was dreaming. I palm RCed and nose pinch RCed. The palm RC still didn't fail despite the fact that I was in a dream. I though for a second, and tried pushing my finger through my cheek rather than my palm. This RC actually worked, and it felt rather odd too, with my finger through my cheek and then touching my thumb out my mouth.

I woke up for real after this. I knew it was real because of the way it felt. However, know that dreams are sometimes as vivid as real life I RCed just in case.
