How many of you have ever been aware of the outside world during your lucid dream? For instance once during my lucid dream, it was still early and my parents were still awake. My mom was the floor above me and was walking around and making a lot of noise. I could hear the noise and in my dream I thought to myself, "why won't she quiet down or else she's gonna wake me up". Or maybe you remembered you fell asleep when you weren't supposed to and had to wake yourself up. It's quite a cool feeling being totally aware of the waking world while your standing in your dream world.
