Thread: Hi there :D

Hi, my name is Matteo(call me Matt if you want) and I'm 15 years old. As you can see I'm an italian guy, so I apologies if you see some grammar or ortographic errors. However it's been a week since I started doing researches about lucid dreaming and since then I started trying to induct myself to lucid dreaming.
I got some results with differents types of induction. I am doing more dreams and I'm taking a dream journal, so I can remember most of my dreams. So I had various dreams, but not a complete lucid one yet. I got the nearest result yesterday.
Before sleeping, I convinced myself saying in my head "I am going to have a lucid dreaming, every experience that I'll prove since now, it's going to be a dream".
It worked, in fact I was dreaming that my house was on fire. Then I remembered my mantra. I suddenly realized that I was dreaming.
I searched a reality check looking at my hands and they had 11 fingers. I got really excited, I finally did it!
Then suddenly everything became really dark and I opened my eyes. Yup, I woke up. :C
I am here to learn from others "dreamers" how to... well dream.
I hope to find some help Thanks for reading
