I don't remember the beginning of my dream, but I remember missing the bus, so I started frantically running back to my house to see if my mom could give me a ride, while I was running, I was trying to go faster but it seemed I was stuck at one speed and no matter how hard I tried I couldn't go faster, the realization that that happens and dreams, and that my mom drives me to my bus stop both entered my mind, so I did an RC, I tried breathing through my plugged nose, I could, after I closed my eyes and I was in my room, I remember reading spinning to keep it stable, while I was spinning I remember thinking "wow, this is amazing, is this really happening?" and that's all I remember, I don't even remember stopping the spin.

This confuses me because I've known about lucid dreaming for 3 days max, before today I only had 1 entry in my dream journal. It just doesn't feel like it really happened, it almost feels as if I was imagining it, even though when I first woke up that was in my mind, but it just didn't feel real.

So my questions, did I really dream that? My alarm woke me up so I know it wasn't me waking up from over-excitement, did I enter lucidity at the very end of a REM cycle? Or do I just not remember the beginning and end of my dream? (I have some fairly bad recall). If I really had this lucid, even though I wasn't in the dream long enough to do anything, it felt amazing.
