First ~REAL~ Lucid Dream

[namone]

Directly from my dream journal (I keep it on my computer): "Nov. 30 - Dec. 1: I had a lucid dream. I was going to sleep in a cryostasis machine, at this point I wasn't lucid. However, this machine was supposed to make my next dream lucid. After entering the machine I awoke, lucid, in my next dream. I nearly lost it for a second, but with spinning I was able to retain it. I spotted a girl I have a crush on (Abby) and decided to sit next to her. I figured, because it was a dream, I would kiss her. For a second I did, but then she ran away. So, I decided I would go for another attractive girl (Annika) and try to kiss her. She ran away too. If I had decided in my mind that they would return the kiss I probably would have had a great time. Anyway, at this point, I decided to try the plugged-nose breathing test, to see if it actually works. My mind was telling me I couldn't breath, but I did hear the sound of air flowing. Not sure. I realized I wasn't wearing any shoes, so, I went down this hallway, kinda a reastraunt, passing the girls I had attempted to kiss; although they didn't seem to notice me. I turned right, and walked up these stairs, stopped and grunted because I was disapointed at my previous attempts to have a good kiss, and continued up the stairs. Once up stairs, I found my socks, and shoes, and was about to put them on when I thought "What if I close, and then open, my eyes in the dream? Will I still be lucid?" so I closed my eyes. However, not thinking, I opened my eyes in real life, instead of dream life; waking me up. Overall it was one of my most vivid dreams. Trying for another soon." It was amazing.

How did you get to dream about cryostasis machine? Is it something you think about often? Sci-fi and stuff? Pretty cool, btw.

Congrats on your first lucid! There are many more to come.

Haha, no I don't regularly think of Cryostasis/Sci-Fi. I watched Men In Black 3 I believe the night before. That might have spurred it on XD It was a very strange, but amazing, experience. Still not as vivid as I wanted but, hey, I'm not complaining.
