Been trying to WILD... can't seem to advance

The first time I tried WILDing I actually felt very strong vibrations and I kept jolting myself fully awake because they were creepy. But now it doesn't bother me anymore, so I try to stay relaxed when this happens. However, I either concentrate so much I stay awake, or I fall asleep quite unconsciously. It's really frustrating, so now I'm trying a new approach. When I experimented with lucid dreaming last summer, I used reality checks exclusively and actually had two lucid dreams that way. It just takes a while to make checking the clock a habit, as I usually don't care what time it is. But starting today, WILD is out and RCs are back, baby!

I've really been slacking on my lucid dreaming lately. Well, all my dreaming, really. And not so much slacking as chucking my motivation in the trash. But I'm back now and since I have no hobby currently, I figured I should get back to this one. After all, I can't let all that reading I did on dreaming in general to go to waste! And definitely reality checks are my choice of method to start out with again. If I actually stick with it I might ask to get adopted, to find an easier way or something. So... did I mention- oh, yeah, I did... so... yup, that's it.
