Any of you ever had a lucid dream? Where you sorta "wake up" within the dream and are able to take control of it.
It has happened to me twice, and then one time where i was more ready and aware for the experience. It woke me up with a jolt last time as i jumped into space and got terribly scared and ticklerish.
Well share your story if you do :)

No responses? Ok, I have many lucid dreams, here is part of one:
The bus stops at a house made of adobe and white washed earth.
I get off the bus, and walk into the house.
In the background I can hear people in the house, but I remain unseen, an invisible stranger in a foreign land.
I am walking down endless halls, passed endless doors, I enter a corridor which opens into a large room. Wooden floors. Beige walls. In the center of the room is a fish tank.
In my head I am chanting: "This is a dream, this is a dream, this is a dream..."
I walk to a wall on the left of the room. A slap my hand against the wall and yell:
"This is a dream!"
I can feel the coldness of the wall on my palm. The slap stings my hand.
I turn to my left, where a large fish tank stands.
"This is a dream!"
There is a little goldfish in the giant tank. I place my hand in front of the tank. I turn the goldfish into a morphing array of swimming creatures.
I smile.
The endless halls dissipate. I imagine a kitchen, the kitchen appears before me.
Candy! Buckets of candy on a kitchen counter. No, Halloween candy! The buckets become smiling jack-o-lanterns. I put my hand into a bucket, and pull out a handful of different oddly packaged sweets.
For a few minutes, I am reading the packages, admiring the graphics on the candy.
I tear open a pack of candy. The candy is sweet and vibrant, buzzing on my tongue.
The walls dissolve around me. I swirl like smoke into the air, flying over desert landscapes, spiraling, cities become specks, continents become specks, the earth is a tiny speck. Stars give way to spirals of light, fractals and patterns, buzzing darkness.

Cool dude this is true i can tell because when i had my first controlled lucid experience i was chanting "this is a dream" in my head aswell, or i was saying it all the time to keep myself lucid :)
Just can't seem to become lucid again :(
Need more reality checking i guess.

Yeap good tips.
Writing them down before they slip into the subconcious. It will allow the concious to better connect to the subconcious.

I have had 3 lucid dreams and can't get another one! I read about them and it said you wake up because your heart beats so fast it wake you up. There are ways to learn how to control it so you don't wake up so fast.
