Actually dreams that you are aware throughout, feel way more like real waking memory's. And they do stay with you even if you don't write them down (in my experience anyway) I am really lazy when it comes to dream journals, and have never kept a serious dream journal. So if my Lazy ass remembers lucids vividly at the end of the day, without any extra effort I can't see why others wouldn't.
