Thread: New here :) +question about vibrational state

A few nights ago I was dreaming ~~ Rode a scooter through some dudes garden and had a red neck chasing me, I turned around and yelled 'I DIDN'T RUN OVER S&!T' (LOL) I then was scootering away cut thru the front yard and was on a dirt road going up hill. I thought to myself 'What if I run out of gas. No don't think that I'm dreaming, it'll happen!' Sure enough my scooter ran out of gas and I got scared of that guy catching up to me and woke up.
My question was, if I knew I was dreaming why wouldn't I become fully conscious? I think my brain was still asleep because I hadn't been awake for 8hours, thats why I didn't have any lucidity to it. I think it was just like my subconscious running thru the dream
