I had done a few before, so it wasn't really my first. I just stumbled on this site on 11/8/2006 and about 5am PST 11/9/2006, I had one. I had been thinking I would have to do the dream journal, look for dreamsigns, etc. I had been asking myself if I was awake or asleep throughout the day like it said to do in the tutorial. I drifted down into sleep, wishing it would happen and it did. I'm still going to do the dream journal and look for dreamsigns; chalk it up to beginner's luck.
