First Lucid Dream!!! Kinda weird...

[dtg108]

Hey guys, I'm just amazed right now. I still can't believe how real and vivid it was. Last night, I went and laid down in my bed. I watched tv for a while, because I was going to do the MILD technique. I thought I had no hope, because I could barely remember any dreams. At about 12 midnight, I got really sleepy, so I told myself a couple of things. I said to myself: I lucid dream TONIGHT, and I remember my dream, and when I see my hand, I know I'm dreaming. I said it with authority until I slowly drifted off. The first two dreams I had were NLD. One was were we were climbing up a mountain. Then my friend tried to shoot me (don't laugh). Then, We got to the top, and it was over. I woke up at about 4AM and realized I remembered my dream, which really surprised me (MILD worked!!!) I wrote it in my DJ and went back to sleep. MY second dream was really vague, but it was just were I fell off the mountain...and fell...and fell. Those suck. Anyway, I woke up and wrote it in my DJ. Now for the good part. I must warn you, my first LD was really short and weird. Yes, weirder then before. Anyway, it started out NL, because I was about to sign something. Then, when I went to sign, I was like: IT's MY HAND! I MUST BE DREAMING. But for some reason, I was still NL. But for whatever reason, I floated into the air, and then I REALLY knew. After that, everything felt so real. I fell back to the ground, and for some reason, I was really eager to sign that paper. I was about to sign it when I woke up. It was short but AWESOME and I'm gonna try again tonight!!

Congratulations! With the lucid as well as the MILD success. I suggest writing up a list of goals you wanna achieve when you get lucid, and familiarize it before bed. That can really help you remember what to do once you get lucid, so you have a plan and use your time wisely! Good luck!
