Dream Journal - In Progress

I was much more relaxed and groggier than the first attempt, which made a difference. Anyways, I'm dozing off and I feel vibrations. Intense ones. So I get excited. Before the vibrations I had been daydreaming that I was in Just Cause 2, an action game. So I daydreamed that the vibrations were the plane's propellers that this dude was trying to grab on to. Well, that went away quickly. But then came a dreamscene - I was soaring over this field of like weird video game flowers and they made a pattern in the middle of the field that looked like a sunflower. I could see in this weird way - there was a small circle in the middle of my vision that was clear, and the rest was darker and less vivid. Once I got down "into" the field it kind of faded and then I was in my bed again. I knew it was an FA, because I could feel my legs floating upwards. So I reality checked with my nose and I was lucid dreaming! I felt like I was in a bunch of sticky jello, it was so hard to move. My vision was all foggy like I'd just woken up. I tried rubbing my hands, which helped me step out of bed, but I walk over to my door and I find myself in a weird posture. I feel like I'm bent over or something and I can't stand straight. I tell myself that I'll be standing normally, it doesn't work. So I test my control by telling myself that the door will open, and it did. Sadly I woke up at this point, but at least I successfully WILD'd! The sad thing is, I don't know how! It was unintentional, I was just trying to go back to sleep after a failed attempt.
