I had one lucid dream as a young boy, when I didn't even know there was such a term for knowing you're in a dream. All I did was bang my head against a wall to wake up (bad choice huh). Well I stumbled upon dream views about 2 years ago and got interested in controlling them. I tried for a bit but was too distracted with school and such. Well a few weeks ago my room mates and I started talking about lucid dreams again. Well this morning I was woken up on several instances, a ringing phone, a doorbell. I knew that going back to sleep was a good way to induce a LD. Well sure enough, I found myself realizing I was in a dream and got really excited. I went for the most common thing, attempting to fly. I jumped and too my surprise, I flew to a height of about thirty feet and proceed to fly. I don't remember much more than that but I know one thing, I'll be starting the dream journal and the reality checks very soon.
