Too Rushed to do Much

WILD from a snooze alarm. My alarm was in my hand (phone) to interrupt my sleep every 9 minutes. The plus side of this trick is I often get lucid, sometimes multiples. The down side is that if I hit one it has to fit into that 9 minutes. I drifted back into sleep. Images formed of my old school field. I was walking around campus. I passed a picnic bench, then I was inside the building. Only on the edge of lucid, so I did a general RC. Does this make sense? No. Do things look normal? Lack of depth, dark, incompletely rendered, so No. I became much more lucid. I flew out through the classroom window. I see people in a front yard near by and decide to interact. I brag to an old school mate that I can jump all the way up on to the high roof top. The DCs are watching. I crotch and spring upward in a powerful jump. I barely go high enough, so I catch the edge above me with my toes. I am basically horizontal now. I pull just using my toes and heave my body around and upright until I can step on to the roof. This has an effect like the movie Labyrinth with David Bowie. The part where he steps from below a level and ends up on top of the level.
I fly away. I suddenly remember that we are in a comp. I need to stabilize and think. I land on a roof. I walk back and forth waving my arms and exaggerating my body motions. I repeat out loud, "this is a lucid dream." It works. I am pretty lucid and stable. I can't easily remember the cool goals. I take a huge leap to the ground and spider climb to the top of a large power pole. I always think spider climb is one of the goals for some reason. I have a little trouble near the top because the DC of me is now holding a phone in his/my left hand. I go to make this anomaly disappear when I realize what it means. It is a reminder to me that time is short, as I am holding an alarm in that hand in real life.
Something about opening a chasm? There is a road with cars, so I imagine it tearing open. A very poorly rendered gash int the road forms. The cars are driving through the air above it. Should I solidify it and maybe make cars fall in. Am I supposed to fall in. No. I remember it involved sledding into it or something. Too elaborate with my limited time. I must go for a few quick points. I see DCs on foot near the opening. I intend to make them scatter in fear, like a Godzilla film. I exert my will to no effect. I think as if implanting the thought,"Earthquake! Look! You will fall in." I exert my will again and it works. People go running crazy. To keep with the theme I do an earthquake to meet element manipulation, not understanding that ripping a chasm in the ground already got those points. I make the earth shake and watch the DCs panic.
The alarm goes off.
