I'm a male, in a month i will turn 18, I have been trying to get lucid dreams since i was 14 i think, maybe even before that. but i had a few problems (i wanted to grow up and not mess my sleep, and i had some other stuff that just didn't allow me trying to achieve lucid dreams). so eventually i stopped.

Recently i've been exposed to this again, and since i find it to be such a good way to use my time as i sleep, I have decided to try again, hopefully this time i will succeed (as last time i managed to get only two lucid dreams )

Thats it, im quite familiar with all the terms, techniques and stuff, but one question bothers me.
After you wake up, do you feel your lucid dream as a hazy memory, or as a clear bright memory that you've been there and you chose what to do and where to be, what to say...
maybe this can be achieved after you are experienced with lucid dreaming?

thanks, LyS.
