Thread: waking from a noise inserted in dream- from the beginning

Ive gotten this before aswell. Exactly what your describing. And I cant explain it logically for the same reasons. I really cant get my head around how its possible.

Like, I know im dreaming about something. It feels like a signifigant amount of time passes in my dream, and then at the end, whatever random dream event happens with a loud sound, and the noise wakes you up in real life. So how did I know to start dreaming about making the noise happen if the noise just went off now? How did I know the noise, whatever it was, would go off then?

Maybe we can stretch out a dream so it seems like it takes however long, but in reality we only dream for a fraction of a second just as the noise goes off in real life.

Just out of curiosity, anyone remember the noises that have woken you up that this has happened too? I think I remember my cat meowing at my door being one.

yes the noise was my mum banging on my door and shouting my name

Actually...
I just realized that something like this has happened to me as I was typing this.

At the point in the dream where it happened, me and my friend were trying to hack into some arcade machines in a grocery store. Yes, I do completely retarded crap in my regular dreams. And suddenly, an alarm goes off, but, instead of waking me up my brain worked it into the dream as the store alarm going off, leading toward me having to avoid security. After all that happened, I was waaay away from the store and back home but the alarm kept going off and a relative explained it as god punishing me for something. Then my dad woke me up and told me to turn off my damn alarm.
