Another noob here

**MAIcrosoft** · 09-25-2007 11:30 AM

Heya! I came across this site because I heard from a friend that he heard something about this "dream controll", and I thought it'd be actually very cool if I can do that, so here I am. My reasons/motivations for doing this are actually useless, more for fun.

My reasons:

- Saving money on games and consoles lol. I hope I can play some good RPG's sometimes, with the graphics I want, music I want etc etc.
- I'm learning japanese, which is very time consuming, so i hope I could continue learning grammar during my dream :3
- Think of what I should post on my blog the next day [:
- Listen to music with a THX certified system

and more useless reasons I could write a book of....

Oh yeah, and I hope I will master that I can recall my previous dream, or it would be like playing RPG's with out a memory card [: So I'm gonna start to practice today, and hope I'll ever achieve all of this sometime.

Hey, welcome!

Those seem like good reasons to me hehe. How did you choose your username?

**GestaltAlteration** · 09-25-2007 07:10 PM

Welcome. Pure entertainment value is as good a reason as any. Give it a week or two and you'll be well on the path to lucid dreaming.

**MAIcrosoft** · 09-25-2007 07:39 PM

Teehee. Thanks for the replies and welcoming :3 Im gonna start to practice in about 3 hours from now Xp I want to achieve something simple first, something like, just turn around or something in my dream, as first goal.

my real name is Mai [; this username is my main username everywhere, and i bet there aren't many people who share this one Xp

**Mes Tarrant** · 09-25-2007 07:42 PM

Hehe I was referring to the "microsoft" aspect of it.

Just curious as I know someone who has fairly recently started to work for the company.

**MAIcrosoft** · 09-25-2007 08:02 PM

haha yeah. many people think i am fan from microsoft or something, but its just a word play with my name and the famous company ; D Maybe I could try to dream that everything is MAIcrosoft instead of Microsoft [:

Hi! I am so glad I found this place! I have been having lucid dreams for several years, but lately I have been having them regularly, twice a week. It's so amazing to me! I think for me the only down side to my LD's is I am so weak when I do awake...anyone else feel like that???

Hey, welcome to you too!

That is so cool, you are such a natural!

You should not feel weak upon awakening. How many hours a night do you sleep and do you wake up often?

**Clairity** · 09-26-2007 02:46 AM

Lor5150, I'm not sure why you feel weak upon awakening.

I normally feel very happy/invigorated after waking up from a lucid dream.

Why do you think you feal weak?

**Wavefunction** · 09-26-2007 05:24 AM

to both of you newbies

**MAIcrosoft** · 09-26-2007 09:13 AM

complete failure this night S: I couldn't remember anything, plus I woke up at 04:00.. Only good thing was that I got up in a great mood [:

**GestaltAlteration** · 09-26-2007 06:33 PM

Don't be discouraged

The average for first LD, if I had to take a guess, is one to two weeks. Your first real focus should be on dream recall (and reality checks regularly). Once you remember your dream(s) each night your chances of getting lucid go way up.

**mark** · 09-26-2007 08:22 PM

Hello!

welcome...as far as I can tell they are fairly mint reasons for wanting to LD

and trust me man its well worth the wait!

**Lor5150** · 09-26-2007 10:19 PM

I am a very light sleeper...I can only have my LD's using the wake-back-to-bed method. When I do go back to bed, I fall into such a deep, deep "trance" type sleep...and my LD's are SO vivid ...and unbelievably real...when I do awake (after several awake checks) I feel weak & drained.....I don't know...that's how it has always been for me with LD's. I mean don 't get me wrong, I love it!

I was thinking a similar idea today. Going and buying some games from a shop and then playing them to see what they would be like graphics gameplay etc.

The only problem is i have so many other ideas for what i want to do in lucid dreams.
