I Was reading about lucid dreaming yesterday on the dream views site and became very interested and couldnt stop thinking about it all day, also I read on a part of the forum about a technique that someone had used.

This included counting untill you fall asleep with the words "I am dreaming" inbetween each Number. I tryed this last night and didnt get any success but after I woke up I tried it again and It was strange how it went from me counting to then falling asleep.

After this I DID have a lucid dream, and i was in full control of my dream.
I remember realising that i was in a dream because i had six fingers which i had also read in a forum that day.
I had read on the forum to focus on my hand and try to recognize every detail on the palm of my hand thinking that my head is making it all up, but when i was doing it i was starting to get confused and parts of my hand and arm started dissapearing.

So after i had finished with that i continued controlling my dream untill about half way through when it became a third person sort of view instead of through my eyes and i could no longer control it.

I was quite pleased that i was able to LD on the first nights sleep pf knowing about it!
