Hey I kinda did it :)
Alright. So I'm not sure when I entered this very short lucid dream, and I don't even know if it was lucid.
I'm in a city. I'm not sure how long I've been here or how I got here. But. It's a very old city, looks like something you would see in (if anyones ever played the game Assassins Creed) a desert built kind of city, and the city is deserted. I study the way the light is hitting the walls and the detail of the textures. I realize I'm in a dream.. Does that make it lucid? Anyway. The dream started to fade when I realized it was just a dream.. So I did the spinning thing. And it worked! Awsome. So then I tried looking around, I spotted nothing in site but buildings, until my eyes stumbled upon someone in a window. A dark silhouette which I could just barely make out, it was standing behind a bared up window frame (the window frame looked trashy and abandoned kind of, with boards nailed across it). Then something in my room made a noise, and I woke up. :( The whole thing lasted probably less than 10 seconds.
So, does that count as lucid? Also, does anyone have any really good reality checks? Right now im just looking at things like the way light hits objects, and texture detail, etc.
Ps. I think it was my cat that made a noise, lol

Conquer, Lucid dreaming is merely the "awareness" that you are dreaming WHILE you're dreaming.
Did you ever say (or think) to yourself, "I'm dreaming?" and, if so, did you BELIEVE this statement/thought to be true? If so, then you were definately lucid. :)
Next time, if you're in doubt, do a "reality check". The reality check that has never failed me is the "plug my nose and see if I can still breathe" reality check. It never hurts to do your favorite reality check a couple of times or even do two different ones.. just to really convince yourself!
Below is a thread containing various reality checks: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ead.php?t=4470

Congrats, thats definitely a lucid.
Most peoples first one seem to be very short as they don't have the confidence of having done it yet, so don't let that get you down, it'll be longer next time :)
I use the "plug my nose and see if I can still breathe" RC too. I've only done it once in a dream, but it worked wonders. Well twice really, I immediately did it again just to make sure. It's such a crazy feeling when you can still breath through a blocked nose :)
