they werent really any epic tales, they werent very interresting and they wetrent very clear, but they were my first (and second)

no.1 I was bicycling beside a classmate of mine and chitchatted a bit. the place was a street i know well. suddenly i asked myself: am i dreaming? and of course i realised i was (to ask yourself am i dreaming 21 times everyday really worked

). The first thing I did was to take a big big leap from my bike. I landed besides three kids. They looked at me but I ignored them and tried to put my finger through my hand. Before i could do it the ream was gone

.

dream no. 2 I was in apartment together with an unknown girl. The sam thing happened, I asked myself if I was dreaming. I also jumped this time, now out of a window. The dream disappeared/ I waked up directly after that.

None of the dreams was very clear. In the first one there was like a thick mist, where i only could see certain objects. The second was clearer but shorter.

I just wanted to "write me off" thx for reading

and by the way do anyone know any good ways to get more lucidity and to keep the lucidity longer?

This may sound ridiculous but here goes...

Shout....HIGHER LEVEL LUCIDITY!!!

Yeah spoken/thought commands to your self work. I read somewhere shouting can sometimes have negatives effects for people so its safer to think commands at first. It's all in the head anyway.

I bet if you expanded your reality check to: "Am I dreaming? I have control." It'd be an instant boost in lucidity once you ask that in the dream. Just remember when starting LDing control is limited and you will wake up/fade out if you strain your 'powers'

Pratice of course will help too. Just stay calm and when you're starting out just let the dream flow while staying aware & doing easy stuff such as: simple maniplation/anti gravity feats.
