I DID IT!!!!!!

WOW, that's all I can say right now. That was amazing. It's 6:30 in the morning right now and I just woke up after 4 hours of sleep (which surprises me too because usually my vivid dreams or more around 6 hours (so an increase in recall as well I think). anyways...here is what happend (I'll leave out the non-lucid first part of the dream):

So in the first part I had ended up taking this girl to prom and she had been in my dream last night and I even tried to mention that to her after we got back to my place, but got distracted by something else so I didn't think about it anymore. I lost some time in the dream after this and then I met up with Jared. We were outside somewhere and we started talking, I told him about the girl and he was like, 'see, I told you, you would get some if you could' and at this point I had a thought about my current girlfriend and I think that I had just broken up with her recently (like the situation with Jared and his girlfriend that he just broke up with). And I denied it because we didn't do anything and he didn't beleive me. At this point I had a thought about why we hadn't done anything, Jared got a phone call at the same time. All of a sudden I realized, hey we didn't do anything because it never really happend in the first place, it was a dream. and then. 'wait a second, is this a dream.' I thought, no at first. But then I thought for a second. I REALLY AM DREAMING. I had a HUGE burst of clarity. I yelled at Jared and told him, and I told him that he was dreaming too, he wasn't paying attention because he was on his cell phone. The power was just building up inside me and Jared like started fading away (like going backwards, but not walking). At the same time I saw that the sky (which I never see in my dreams) was filled with lightning, which had been created by me, not on purpose. There was also a row of people there and they were kind of sliding around some (not walking). The whole scene at the time, with all the thunder and lightning felt like it was out of some old horror movie, it was a 'It's Alive' type of feeling, only it was 'I'm Alive.' This was also kind of frightening because of how real everything felt and it was all dark and spooky looking out. Then I thought about how I really needed to settle down or I was going to lose it and wake up. I started rubbing my hands together, which felt so amazingly real. I also started spinning. But it was to no avail, I was too excited, and still am. I need to go back to sleep now, but don't know how I'm going too, lol.

Oh, and it only took me 12 days, so all you out there that havn't had your first, don't give up hope. I can't even explain how amazing that feeling was, like nothing else, extreme euphoria and excitment.

thanks Ev, yes, I know what everyone is referring to now. I'm still so excited and can't get back to sleep, I think I'm going to go treat myself and go out to breakfast instead

a little reward for myself.
