Uhh, new!

I've only had about one lucid dream I think.
It goes, I was at school, and when I'm dreaming of school everything is green. So I noticed it was a dream and I was in a conference room in the school and Tom Cruise was there and he was being all annoying. I stood up and said 'This is my dream and I don't want to be here!' so I left that room. I think that was all I had lucid. Nothing special really but I want to become a 'professional'? lucid dreamer, so I hope you guys can help me along the way.

I am starting a dream journel tonight and gonna try the hand through the wall dream sign and also I thought telling myself that I am about to go into a dream before I slip in sleep might help too.
Also I've done a bit of meditation before so I am going to do some self hypnosis on letting myself lucid dream.

A bit about me!:
I love music - Animal Collective, Mew, Late of the Pier, Foals, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Washed Out, Phoenix, Passion Pit.. blah blah LOTS AND LOTS.
I like red bean cake

Is this forum purely dedicated to lucid dreaming and only lucid dreaming. I tend to babble alot as you can tell and I noticed there wasn't any 'General Discussion' threads.
Anywho, looking forward to sharing my dreams with you all.

Sleep well dreamers. XD
