Okay, for the past few nights I have working at having a WILD before going to sleep. I know that having a WILD right before bed is more difficult then other times but I am doing it anyways But anyways, I was trying yesterday, and, like the last few times I did I got to the onset of paralysis, which always starts in my hands. I get a tingly weighted feeling in my hands, but of course I always get an adrenaline rush (no idea why) that stops full paralysis from happening. So anyways, I tried this, didn't work, and drifted off to sleep. I can't remember all of the dream, but I think I can recall it somewhat. Here's the dream I had that occurred:

I was sitting on my bed. It was late at night because I could hear my parents snoring. I was using my mac laptop, and at some point I realized that is was weird for me to be using my laptop in the middle of the night, so I decided to do a reality check by plugging my nose and breathing in- and I could breathe! Now, I realized I was dreaming. *But heres the thing, I am not sure if I became lucid. But my dreamself, to an extent, realized I was dreaming*. I did not perform any other reality check, but I did look at my door and tried to turn it into my grandfather (*who is long passed*) so I could talk to him. Nothing happened. I got up, opened the door, and walked around. I was wearing boxers and a pink floyd T-shirt. I looked around, and tried to turn a vase into a rabbit Still nothing. at this point, I went into my room and remember clocks look and behave differently in dreams, so I examined the clock in my room. At a glance, it did not look very different, just normal numbers and a hand, but I didn't look or acknowledge what time it was. Then I looked in the cage that held my pet ball python. For some odd reason there was a copy of my book on emerald tree boas sitting on the newspaper. Weird. When I turned and looked at my bed, there was an adult emerald tree boa laying on it looking at me in strike pose. *For reference, I am a big snake keeper/lover*.

This is the last thing I remember before waking up, so I think sometime must of happened.

The weird thing is, I am not sure if I was actually conscious in the dream ( i do not think i was ) but just having a dream in which I realized I was dreaming and acted out a few things I had planned to do when I actually had a lucid dream?

I thought it might even be possible that I had a false awakening on a WILD attempt, but I am guessing not.
