I almost had my first lucid dream. I won't go into too much detail.

Basically, I was at school sitting in class. There was an announcement on the PA, we were celebrating something. Then I remembered what it was about, it was summer vacation. Then I thought, "Wait, why are we having school in the middle of summer?" I started to work out the schedule in my head, after alot of what's and waits, I realized I was dreaming. I did a reality check by pinching my nose, which failed. But the excitement got to me and I woke up. I actually managed to pull myself back in while halfway between waking and sleep, still woke up in the end, though.

Alright, one step further.
