Thread: Lucid Frustrations

I had several unrelated dreams leading up to the lucid one. I remember talking to my parents while they were packing my things. I don't know where I was going. The scene changed and I was running in a field near some really twisted trees. I was trying to cheer up a little girl who was sad or something. I know this particular dream was the longest, but I can't remember much of it. Then I was at some strange place that was supposed to be my school looking for a bathroom that wasn't overcrowded. Strangely this is a very common dream for me. It seems I can't get away from people trying to watch me piss. Next thing I know I'm back at home bringing in groceries. I don't know if this counts as a false awakening, but I was thinking about that last dream wondering why I didn't get lucid. In the background my mom was saying I should go to school and take an art class or something along those lines. As soon as I finished that thought, I realised I didn't remember waking up. It occurred to me that I must be dreaming. I set down the groceries in the snow and rubbed my hands together. This is the first time I remembered to stabalize, and I was calm but very excited. I looked around at the other houses, and the sky, and the more I rubbed my hands together the more vivid the scene became. I was trying to remember the tasks of the month, but it is technically Feb now and I couldn't remember any. So instead I decided I was going to cross something off of my own list. I was going to draw/paint while lucid. I, for some ****ing reason, decide to carry in the rest of the groceries and lose lucidity! Next thing I know I was waking up in my bed. SO FRUSTRATED UGH
