Dream 1:
I was with my school friends in some sort of water park, much like the one we had been to on school camp late last year. It was a bit different, though. We were in a skybox overlooking the park, and P was commenting on how much he liked KFC's Mashies. He had a large bowl of them on the table, and wasn't sharing them with anyone.
Ok, subconscious. I'll get Mashies...

Dream 2: (first lucid!!!!!)
I was standing in the hallway of my house, and it was very dark so I could hardly see a thing. I remembered that I had just been drifting off to sleep, and I couldn't remember how I got here. Then I realised that I must be dreaming!!! I closed my eyes, put my hand out in front of me and said "Light!", and when I opened my eyes it was day. Feeling very proud of myself, I tried to think back to my list of things to do while dreaming, and the first thing that came to mind was "Jump impossibly high". So, I went outside and tried to jump. On my first try I didn't get much further than I would usually be able to jump, so I tried again, this time with more focus. The second time round I managed to jump up into a tree! I lay down in the branches to rest, and lost lucidity. I don't really remember much after that.

Dream 3:
I was at my old primary school with some friends, and me and D were playing with high-tech potato shooters, that, instead of shooting potatoes, shot balls of light. Then one of my highschool teachers came and told us off, and advised us to make our way to the assembly hall. We sat down in the hall, and it seemed that we were preparing for a school production. There's a blank spot here - I don't remember anything up to the next part, where me and T went down to the stream. For some reason there was a large lake there instead of a stream. Then, I realised that we needed to get back in time for the school production, so we started to run back. I realised we were not going to get there in time going this slow, so I jumped up, insanely high, over trees and buildings, then crashed through the roof of the assembly hall and miraculously landed in my seat.
When I woke up I could have slapped myself for not realising I was dreaming
Duh.

All in all, I'm proud of myself for having good control in my first lucid dream. Sure, it didn't last too long, but oh well. Now I know I can
