Welcome to Dream Views! Hope your stay is great!

It sounds like a Lucid Dream to me, if you knew you were dreaming while you were dreaming. You may not always be able to control your surroundings.

Here's a tutorial on Dream Control. And here's a link to the Dream Control section.

If your wanting to remember more dreams, then you can start by keeping a Dream Journal. A Dream Journal (DJ for short) is simply a journal that you record your dreams in. I heard it's best to write down the important things first like, where you were, who was in your dream, anything out of the ordinary that happened, then go into explaining what actually happened in the dream.
