I do the dumbest things. For example: I'm running away from some people who want to kill me. I think "hey, I've learnt how to fly in my dreams and this is a dream! If I fly, they'll never catch me!"

...and yet, I don't take control of the dream at all. Despite acknowledging that I'm dreaming, I don't seem aware of the fact, and I continue to worry about the things that are happening in the dream (people trying to kill me).
