i am fairly new to the whole LD world, and am very interested in obtaining an LD. I keep a regular log, and recored everything i remember from my dreams. so 2 nights ago i am dreaming and in my dream i am walking with my friend Emi, and we are in a dark park, with many trees around us, then i specificly remember telling her "i wish our friend Gidge were here with us" no more than 5 seconds later, gidge appears on the road in front of us, and we slowly begin walking towards her.
then i woke up : (

was this the beginning of a LD?

and how can i control it more and stay asleep?
