Okay so I started getting into lucid dreaming about a week ago. Since then I had one semi lucid dream where I was able to exert some control over the dream and my actions in it. I have been practicing using MILD and recently read KingYoshi's guide to ADA.
Anyways in my dream I was in school and talking to my cousin about something. Then I looked down and noticed someone's dream journal on the floor. I read it over and it was talking about lucid dreaming and I thought. Hey that's cool, I'm trying to do this same type of thing. Then I was talking to my cousin and he was saying how doing stuff like ADA can make you drunk. This was still in the dream. So I decided to prove him wrong by practicing it in the dream. Unfortuneately I woke up right after I started doing this.
Do you think I would have become lucid if I had continued through the dream and done some ADA in the dream. Also why didn't I become lucid after recognizing the word, it just seems strange to me.
