Okay I'm new to the boards and I want to share my experience with the rest of you. I was dreaming about being outside and bringing bags in my house from a car into my house. Then I heard a dog from across the street barking(It was dark at this time).Then I was inside if the car and the dog was right by the car. I don't know if I summoned the dog by the car or if it was just part of the dream and I didn't have any control over it. Then I woke up like 5 seconds after that unable to move. I then saw a women that seemed to be grey standing by my bed. Then I was fully conscious in about 10 seconds after that.

I have a few questions:
If I did't wake up(I think I woke myself up), would the dream continue and become lucid?
Have any of you ever had a person standing near your bed just looking at you?

I was reading this board the other day and I was planning to attempt this process called WILD,but the thing that happened last night was unintentional. I did feel a sense of control when I was dreaming though.
