[2nd LD] Mirror experience

Hi,
it's the first time I'm posting here. Btw, really nice site/forum

I just had my second lucid dream

I was in a small flat which i recognized as a friend's one. My lucid seeing was quite good, but to make it even better I repeated "aware" all the time .. it helped at least a bit. Anyway, I didn't really know what to do in my dream, so i just walked around in the flat. Suddenly I saw a big mirror in hanging on the wall in front of me. It was giled on its borders. I wasn't sure if i should take a look at my dream-self because I somewhere read that it might be "strange" .. but hey, no risk no fun

So, I watched myself in the mirror. I basically looked the same as in real life, but everything was kinda deformed. My facial expression was weird too. Afterwards I left the mirror and walked around in the flat again. I thought of this girl, which I know for a long time and wanted to make her a part of my dream. As i entered another room, I saw her sitting at a long dinner table. She somehow looked a bit frustrated as I went to her. I wanted to touch her face, but as I did my lucidity awareness was gone and i woke up.

Is there something I can interpret in the mirror-part of my dream? What is it with this mirror-thing in dreams anyway?

I think I'll reduce my activities to more basic things like touching a non-living thing or .. hhm .. we'll see

Nevertheless it was really cool!
