GAH!

I done something similar last night. I was talking to my brother about lucid dreaming and reality checks and as i was talking about rc's he started acting weird like he was trying to tell me i was dreaming so i say sorry but i have to do this so i count my fingers and i have 6 on both hands. I look ast my brother and i am sure he was smiling at me so i count them again and i have more than 5 again but i don't become lucid!

Another one last night was i am in my bedroom and i can hear someone outisde singing at the top of his voice YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH YEH. I think to myself this odd so i get up and look out of my window and imagine someone appearing but it doesn't work, i then wake up.

I have a few others aswell but can't recall them fully. It is concerning how often i am posting on this thread lately, i think it is time i bring bck the reality checks.

In one of my dreams i had to climb up a metal staircase, where every-so-often a ball of fire would suddenly burst through the wall, whilst carrying a baby with the rest of my family following behind me... (this is a non lucid dream btw)

Anyway, i could see in front of me fire start to errupt from the wall, so i say to my self randomly "its only a dream the fire cant hurt me!" So im about to walk into the errupting fire ball with only a baby and some random hope to protect me when my Dad shouts from behind me "ITS ONLY SMOKE, IT CANT HURT YOU"
So i walk through the fire which has become harmless smoke, turn to my Dad and shout a thanks, completly forgetting that I realised it was a dream - because walking through smoke disguised as fire, while holding a baby as protection, with my family waiting to see if i get burned is of course a normal thing!

Thanks alot Dad! (-_-)

In one of my dreams, a friend of mine was kind of drowning and I saw a girl running on water coming to rescue my friend. I was like:"WOW, how can she do it?!" LOL

I once dreamed I was running away from some mobster, and while doing so I came across an italian restaurant patio filled with rows and rows of tables that were far too clsoe together. I jumped as high as I could and cleared the entire patio. I thought, "Oh score, I'm just dreaming" and figured I'd stay in the air. At that moment a pink bunny on the floor said, "no... you're not." I believed him, fell, and woke up.

i think the fact that most of these are ppl doing RCs in their dreams then not doing anything about it goes to show that RCs don't work for sum ppl.
