It really got me back into the idea of lucid dreaming.

If your interested, the reason why I've been looking into lucid dreaming is that when I was about 15, I had a dream that turned out to be the best comic story I ever had. The one idea from that dream spawned into a huge epic universe. About 1 year later I had my first lucid dream, that lasted only a few seconds, but it was so exciting because I used that opportunity to be my comic hero. If I could do that everynight... I'd be able to keep my inspiration for my comics, I think.

Anyway, HELLO EVERYBODY! Can't wait to get to know everyone!

Hi, welcome to DV! You are definitely in the right place after seeing Waking life. I myself have never seen the film, but i've heard a lot about it. Vanilla Sky got me started on LD'ing.
Congratulations on your lucid dream!

The best thing you can do now is to begin keeping a dream journal. This site has an excellent feature for that...You could also just use a notebook by your bed. Keeping a dream journal increases your recall, and enables you to spot dreamsigns, which lead you on to realising you're in a dream.
Also, check out the tutorial section for various induction techniques for lucid dreaming.

Feel free to PM me or another dreamguide if you have any questions (we're the ones with green stars under our names&#33

BTW, great introduction
