Thread: Hello!

Hi i'm Sanquis. I stumbled upon this forum after looking for dreams on wikipedia, which lead me to lucid dreams on wikipedia and due to my curiousity I went into my research on lucid dreams and found this nice community.
In general I would describe myself as a freindly person, willing to help anyone who needs it and treating even people I detest with respect, sometimes I am in situations where I just think "Wouldn't the world be more peaceful if everyone was like me?" usually followed by the thought of "No...that would be quite boring..." I enjoy playing recreational computer games usually online ones, and I like playing tennis, basketball, wii-sports (hey! its tiring if you play boxing vs an ex-boxer!) and I also enjoy roleplaying of many sorts which is why lucid dreams have a perticular appeal to me (I remember when I used to play "Who-do-you-want-to-be with my little sister, so long ago...).
I read most tutorials on lucid dreaming and I am pretty sure I have had a lucid dream before even realising what it was! This is actually my first day, learning about lucid dreaming so im not rushing into anything (but keeping my fingers crossed that I might get another lucid dream from doing all this reasearch all day :p).
My most recent and only memoriseable lucid dream was actually two days ago whereby in-dream I was being chased, which mysteriously transfigured into a large gathering of all my freinds...some of which I didn't actually know...but suddenly I realised "Hey, this is a dream isn't it?". The rest is blurry but I blame that on my memory but I do remember very vividly what happened after. For some reason I was flying over houses neatly organised as far as the eye could see, flying in circles and laughing as I played amongst the clouds, the sun was that of a morning kind and I suddenly was overcome by the excitement of "I can go anywhere I want!!" This was a major mistake and I immediately woke up. As unfortunate as that was I am happy of what little time I spent in a lucid dream. This dream is what lead me here and I hope to one-day learn how to control and induce lucid dreams, i'm pretty sure everyone here does.
I'm very happy to be here and i'd like to give a big thankyou to everyone here in the community. (And a hug if you want it).
