My First Lucid!! (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Monday, 09-05-2011 (Went to sleep at about 23:00 and woke up at 5:30)
Before I went to sleep i was reading on DV. One of the user said that combining the MILD- with the DILD technique and creating a mantra,repeating your objective over and over before sleeping works wonders. I decided not to focus too much on remembering my dreams (since it was getting a bit frustrating not really recalling any dreams in the first week) but instead focus on having a LD. I repeated: "Tonight, I will have a lucid dream."

I was standing on this floating platform in a house that was just drifting in Space. I could see the stars outside the house with no ground underneath it. There was a voice,almost what you would picture God to sound like, telling me that in this universe anything is possible. He said: "Here you can do anything you can dream of. Even if you feel like summoning a Venomancer (for those of you who play dota,you know...) you can do it at will." As he said that, I saw a Venomancer drifting past me on another platform. It soon dissapeared. Then this guy i knew from school walked up next to me on the floating platform. He was walking with crutches,so i assumed his leg was broken or something. He held a vortex ticket in front of me (Vortex is a trance party we have over Easter and New Years eve). I wasn't strange for him to have a ticket to a trance party,since he is a hippie type of guy. The thing was that the trance party was two weeks ago. I said: "where are you going with that? Vortex was two weeks ago." He replied with a friendly grin on his face: "No...not in this world." He turned around and walked a few steps with his crutches and stopped,dropped the crutches to the ground and said "Oh yeah, I forgot...I dont need these here." and dissapeared into a bright light.
Then another old friend of mine appeared and said that we had to go work. I felt confused and then I heard another womans voice telling me that this universe isn't all fun and play, we need to work sometimes.The dream skipped to me standing on a flat, concrete roof. It seemed as if though I was back on Earth...And then it struck me that none of this makes any sense. the only explanation is that is this is a dream.
I ran to the edge of the roof and did a RC. I looked down at my hands,not really bothering to focus on them because I already knew that was dreaming. I saw my hands were blurry and at that second, excitement just shot through me and all the colours around me just became more vibrant. I immediately thought to myself that I should try to fly. I took a few steps back and first tried to levitate. I jumped into the air, and there it was...I was hovering above the ground. I came back down again, ran to the edge of the roof and just jumped. I was flying! It was such an amazing feeling. It was so real.
As i was flying over my swimming pool, I started losing lucidity without really realising it. I think it might have been me getting a bit over-excited. The dream became less and less vivid and i started floating back to a ledge on the building. I held on there for a few seconds and flew back to the roof. When i got there,i ran up and down shouting: "I can do whatever I want, I van do whatever I want!" I saw a hole in the red, tiled roof next to me and I made my way into the hole...I woke up.

I had this growing smile on my face as I woke up, reached for my mobile to record my dream. I woke my girlfriend and told her the good news. I couln't sleep for the rest of the night, was just to excited!
