Lo people... just joined this forum since I wanted to at least share my vivid dreams, and also to improve how many lucid dreams I get. For me its a rare occurrence, but I have experienced them, though in most of the cases, they were lucid nightmares.
Best example was years ago when I was staying at a relative's house (and had to sleep with my little sister due to a shortage of beds). Basically, it started off as a normal day of school, with celebrities scheduled to come visit (first thing I noticed that was off). However, as the celebrities arrive, a disc comes out of nowhere and decaptitates them before coming after pupils and teachers. We all make a run for it and I run into the boarding house and talk to my friends about it, seeing if they know anything more than I did. Eventually, everything sort of skips to the lunchbreak, obviously a couple of days after the first incidents. Pupils disappearing, or being found decapitated. Then this group of kids decide to try and confront whatever was trying to kill us all. They run into the woods next to the boarding house, and a while later, screams are heard from the woods. I am watching with a load of others on the playfield overlooking the woods, when suddenly one kid runs out of the woods. Following closely behind him is the disc, which decapitates him and then turns towards me. I just manage to duck in time before flies over me and hits the wall behind. The disc then folds up neatly after the impact (instead of shattering or digging into the wall). So I take a look at it closely, fiddle around with to see how it works. Then an unnatural scream comes from the woods, and the disc unfolds and flies from my hands and goes into the woods. At this point, I am really freaked out, so I run for it and I hide in a nettle bush (why I have no idea).
At this point I wake up since my little sister was crying and and wanted some juice. After obtaining the needed juice in a semi-comatose state, I fall back asleep once I felt comfortable enough to do so. Then to my disbelief, I returned straight back into the dream, right in the nettle bushes where I was hiding. That point I knew I was dreaming, and despite willing myself to wake up, it failed. Instead, I got myself out of the nettles and decided to take on the attacker. Now the dream had taken on a different atmosphere. Everything was silent, nobody was there. I was alone within the grounds of my school. Everybody had been massacred. The sky was dark red, and it was pretty surreal and macabre. That was when I saw the attacker. It was me, except a deranged, evil me, glowing eyes and completely soaked in blood, and of course, holding the disc. I run to him to attack, though as I ran, he threw the disc. I catch it, though it cuts into my hand, but now that I had the disc, I snap it in half. I then fight with the evil me, eventually killing him with one of the shards, though I get injured myself. Once I had defeated him, I collapsed... only to wake up in the morning.
Not a pleasant dream, but I achieved a degree of lucidity in it. There were a few others, but this is the one I remember clearly.
Anyways, more about myself. I'm a student at university in England, studying Computer Science (Computer Games Tech.). I have a rather creative mind, I'm very good at coming up with ideas for things, however, I get a lot of frustration when trying to express my ideas, since I'm not great at drawing or writing (trying to do via 3D Modelling... ). I have written some stuff before, inspired by a dream I had, though ever since then, I haven't been able to write anything better. I've always had lots of vivid dreams, though never quite to the point of lucidity (except for a few occasions). Recently, I have been having some incredibly vivid dreams again (all with a recurring theme though), so I joined these forums in order to explore them further and also attain some control over my dreams so I can at least enjoy them more (I love to sleep...).
