AHHHHHH!!! sorry about the overwhelming number of smileys but... I JUST HAD MY FIRST CONTROLLED PROPER LUCID! (my last 3 were uncontrolled btw) It was amazing... first something triggered it and i did the nose pinch reality check (breathing through your nose while its pinched is quite an odd feeling) except it felt like my eyes were haalf closed (and looked like it too) so i started dream spinning... i fell over to no prevail so i closed my "eyes" and began rubbing my hands for friction my eyes opened clearly... to blackness... then "reopened" to the real world... my dad had just woken me up from my first completly controlled lucid... oh well i JUST HAD MY FIRST CONTROLLED LUCID!!!
