Thread: First time becoming lucid! YESSSS!

This is from my dream journal, so was a Lucid, seems like I was, and has this ever happened to guys, like wake up still imagining your dream after you become lucid?

(This is about my 5th night trying)


DECEMBER 18th/2007


Thank God for Joe's Boxers!

Okay so I woke up aty about 6:20 or so and thought to myself "great, another night of no lucids, ill try again tommarow" and went back to bed for a little while (I dont wake up till like 10 to 8). So I'm up trying to go to sleep about a little after 7 and thinking "what are the chances?", Well the chances were suposivly above %50.......

(this is my dream now) I'm in some painball pants and decide to change out of them. I do and I go look for some new boxers to put on. Somehow this guy brady came into my dream asking me to borrow/have some stuff so he can teach (he's in grade 10 lol) anyway I'm looking for boxers in my hamper, I look and I see some yellow boxers...

In reality I only have 1 pair of yellow boxers which I remember are across the room.

So in my dream I pick up these boxers and they say "Spoke'N'Sport" All over them. Spoke N Sport is a bicycle shop in my city. Anyway in reality my yellow boxers are "joe boxer" brand so I'm just like hmmmm, and keep looking. To my surprise another pair of yellow boxers, I look at the strap and has "joe boxer" written on it. I look at Brady next to me and seriously ask him "Brady, am I dreaming?" Just as I would feel asking someone in real life. He replys to me saying some stuff about if I have the stuff he can borrow. I plug my nose and I can breathe! I try again and I can. This feeling is great alone just breathing through my nose. To my dissapointment I am now in the half awake half still looking at my dream state. I wake up to it and dissapointed and happy at the same time, I do a RC just incase of a false awakining.

So this is my first time becomeing lucid, it was hazy but I know this is the first step up the stairway tword having full lucid dreams.

Another thing is that 2 days ago I was laying in bed ready to have an LD (I didnt) and something told me you wouldent have on till tuesday night, to my surprise didnt have one on monday, but TUESDAY! Coincidence?

And the reason I think Brady was in this dream asking me for stuff is because yesterday in guitar he was asking for 5 bucks intill I gave it to him.

LUCID!!!!!!!

Gratz, Even if it was a short LD its better than nothing

Alright, Curtis!! Congrats!

Well, interesting - I believe that is the self-convincing factor. Something similar happened to me a long time ago, when I was first learning to LD. I was so pissed that I had no luck for a while with LDs. I looked up and saw it was a full moon that night. So I remember telling myself, "Yes! Full moon effects water, body is 90% water -- Tonight I will have a LUCID!".

Sure enough, I had one that night!

I think the reason I woke up so easily was because it was early in the morning, I am so used to wake up like every 15 mintues in the morning so once I have one hear 4-6 ish I think it will last longer!

Curtis, congrats on your first lucid dream!

May they only get better!
