Hey, I'm Theresa! I started getting interested in lucid dreams about two weeks ago. I started a dream journal twelve days ago, and last night I had my first *real* lucid dream... I think! Anyway, I'd just like to share my experience with you.
The Dream:
I was in a huge office building, just wandering around by the front door. I was kind of upset about something, but I don't remember what. Eventually, I got so frustrated that I just ran through the front door and into the parking lot (which was nearly empty.) As I was running, I suddenly just *knew* that I was in a lucid dream! I thought to myself, "I don't remember getting in the car and driving to this place... I must be dreaming!" Then I realized I was lucid dreaming. I decided (without much consideration) to try flying. Still running, now outside, I semi-crouched down and then just sprang upward... I was flying! This is my first flying dream, too, because I never have these naturally. I kind of learned how to "float" myself down, and sprang up again. Then I just flew up and around the parking lot a couple of times.
The dream ended when somebody walked onto the parking lot, and I landed. I awoke soon after.
