Finally a vivid dream!

WELL i don't think i've had a vivid dream for atleast a bloody year because my sleeping pattern is just so messed up hahaha, now that i've started trying to learn the ability to LD i seem to be remembering my dreams a TINY bit, but this one was good & long!

i've only written down one more dream besides this one & it was very small.. but this was two big pages long

I'm pretty excited, i think i might be a step closer to having a lucid :')

Indeed. 4 months ago , before i started to attempt LD. I almost never got any dreams at all(well i didn't remember them even upon the walking). When i started to write the DJ, do the reality checks etc the dreams just got so pumped up. First they were just really short ones , but later i even started to get more than just one dream in a night. The best one you can read in my DJ, but it was 4 LONG VIVID DREAMS IN ONE NIGHT. It was just so amazing. But as school started , the sleeping pattern broke and also by the school stress, when you get to bed you just want to sleep and not try anything(well not always, but after really hard days).
But yeah, make sure you write DJ, it helps a lot. Now after 4 months , i can easily remember the dream (almost every detail, sometimes something is missing), after a whole day of school (as i can't get to PC in the mornings) and write down the dream.

haha, i wish i had them right now. My dream recall just broke after the school started. As i just go to bed without thinking about nothing, hoping to get a good sleep. But well maybe i gotta try hard even if i don't want to atm. Will thank myself later i guess

Increased vividness is a very good sign, it means that you are more "involved" in the dreams which means you are getting closer to actually becoming lucid.

You will eventually come to a point when you start to feel that you are getting closer and closer to a lucid dream - I don't know how to describe it, but I at least often get a very strange feeling of "approaching the next lucid dream" after practicing for a couple weeks or so.
It starts with very vivid dream recall, then I notice that I always dream about the topic lucid dreaming, then I start questioning things in the dream and start having elusive thoughts like "could this be a dream...?".
All this makes me feel like the next lucid dream is just around the corner, and that's when it starts to feel truly exciting.
