I had my third lucid dream last night. My brother found a bunch of strange objects in my garbage can. I realized they were there because of something I did. A few moments later I realized the situation was very strange, and in fact a dream! I did my reality checks but found myself "waking up", as I struggled with keeping myself asleep and dreaming. Moments later my mom was telling me that I needed to get ready for school. As it turns out, this was a false awakening. Darn you brain! And darn myself for not doing a RC after I woke up :/ I guess it was too realistic for me to consider the obvious. One more thing to note is that I preformed SSLID earlier in the night, so thanks for the technique!
