Conclusion -
April was an amazing month of LDing for me despite a lot of RL limitations and stress. Probably the involvement in a competition had to do with increased motivation. Had a total of 23 LDs, 5 of which were mid length or longer, including one super long lucid which was longer and more stable than most of my lucids since ever. Remembered to do some of the tasks and did many goals and dream control for the comp. Dream recall fluctuated between 1-2 dreams up to 11 full dreams with frags - with an average of ~5-6 full dreams. Still need to work on being able to prolong the lucids and stop procrastinating thru some of them, although it occurs to me that my current definition for LD duration is ridiculous (with 7 minute long lucids considered "short"). Will probably change it eventually...
Overall, April felt very close to my original goal at lucid dreaming of getting lucid every 2-3 days at least with the occasional super long and stable dreams. Will see if I managed to keep it consistent thru May as well... If I do, will probably have to update my overall goals sooner than I thought.
