Hey everyone, I'm, well, I guess I'm batman. I've never used this nick before, but meh, Batman pwns.

I'm pretty new to LD'ing. I started reading EWLD about maybe a month ago. I started the whole dream journal thing and all that good stuff. Since then I've had good recall and can always remember at least one, if not more dream per night.

I've had one mid level WBTB DILD, and two WBTB LD's that just seemed to randomly happen although they were horribly low level (they were my first though).

I just read about WILD's in EWLD a few nights ago (the night of my first LD's), and in that general section I found a great method that gets me to sleep. I try to do a WILD every night for now on, but I mess something up and fall to sleep. I'm going to try a MILD/WILD combination. Every time I breath in, I'm going to think, "I'm going to lucid dream tonight", and every time I breath out I think, "I'm dreaming". While I breath I always try to pay attention, and I get to the hypnagognic images and auditory. What seems to happen is that I usually forget the audio a few seconds later. Is that normal, or should I be remembering it better? (Same goes for imagery).

I just stumbled across the VILD, which might help. But anyways besides LD'ing, I'm a computer enthusiast. I like learning new (programming) languages. I'm currently fairly apt at Java and C++. I've tried Ruby before and loved it, although I haven't programmed since *_* (School keeps me busy =]]).

Besides computers, I like actual language arts. I do know English as my native, and as a junior in high school I'm in my fifth year of French and third year of Latin. I have a whole list of languages I want to learn. Greek, Arabic, Manderine Chinese, Japanese, Italian (should be too hard if I know French and Latin, lol), Spanish, German...(Those are placed in the order I wish to learn them).

This was a hugely long post, and I apologize for it, but it is an intro, so deal with it =]]
