Will Keanu Reaves be in my dream?

Can anyone give me any tips on how to do it?

Tonight I am going to try and lucid dream. I hope it works and I become an undersea creature.

Its not easy. If you do manage to mentally realize that you're sleeping, you'll most likely wake up right away. 

I woke up the first time I realized I was having one, in first grade. Then I had another one in first grade where I didn't wake up immediately and one or two in fourth/fifth-ish grade where I also did not wake up for awhile. I woke up in the middle of the night for the both of the ones in first grade; I think that helps you remember

I wish I could do that

I once had a dream where I was being chased by some people, but I realised it was a dream. I remember my dream-self tried to wake up, with my pursuers very kindly waiting patiently while I tried.    But I don't remember being able to control it.    Or maybe I just didn't catch on to the fact that I could control it when I realised it was a dream. Hopefully I'll remember next time, and then I can be like Neo!

First of all, don't think to yourself that you are going to have a lucid dream. Think about what you want to do in your dream.
And how I do it is that I lay down and don't move at all, but I think about getting up and walking somewhere. Eventually I'll fall asleep and I'd be at that place in my dream.
And as soon as you wake up, focus on the first object you see and recall what happened in your dream. This will make it more likely that you will dream lucidly.

I have lucid dreams a lot.  I always have DILDs and usually towards the end of the dream (though still a decent length of time in lucid-ness).  I did have this one cool one though.  I figured out I was dreaming pretty early in, and when I figured it out, it was like the Matrix.  Focus on water + raise hand upwards authoritively = epic pillar of water.  I went around with the power of a god.

:O

One time, I lucid dreamed.  As a first grader, or maybe in kindergarten.  Unintentionally.  I managed to keep it going throughout the entire night, and then woke up.  It was... odd, to say the least, that I ended up re-experiencing this dream when I was 11.  Only this time, I was the lab rat running around in a controlled world.  Through some form of miracle, I managed to influence the dream myself to a degree, and make it safe.  This, however, knocked the dream off balance and I ended up only in control of what went in, and just barely at that.  I supplied endless resources; and only when I re-experienced it could I understand just what I had seen.  Random memories went flying into my younger self.  As well as a small spark for my anthro's design, which finally manifested itself after I joined scratch in 2010.  I had, however, not known of sonic nor did I have a place to take advantage of his existence at the time of the original dream and simply tried matching the pallete for him to everything I could think of then.  The thought died down, and we fast forward to mid-2011.  It's fuzzy, but the idea re-emerges, seeming like my own because... well, it is.  My mind is similar enough to when the dream happened to my older self.  I find something that matches the shape perfectly;  Sonic Advance sprites.  I'm subconsciously fulfilling a little plan an older version of myself laid out unknowingly.  As I search for a name, I find that my original blurred intentions' names are already taken.  As I look for a new one, part of it makes me regain clarity on the thought.  I re-edit the sprite in a matter of seconds and publish it only slightly later.  In a month or so, my familiarity with Light re-triggers the dream and I experience being the invader into my own mind, and my own, earlier self's mental defenses manifesting forms created by me. 

Long story short;  Lucid dreams have some weird effects on people, sometimes being incredibly short-range telepathic powers.

Longer story short;  TL;DR.

All of my dreams are like that.

My Lucid Dreaming is interesting. I've mastered LDing, but I have one constraint. The things I do have to be related to what happened during the day. For instance, last night in my dream I became a god and I was able to fly. However, I could only fly by double jumping, like in Minecraft creative mode. This is because I had been playing Minecraft the previous day. I also was in a medieval town. It was exactly the same as Riverwood in Skyrim, as I had been playing there a while the previous day.
   More things from the previous day appeared in my dream for me to manipulate, but most of the others I can think of are inappropriate, so I won't say them. I have noticed that if you are doing something you want to do, but you put it off to do something else, it stays in the back of your head meaning you will keep it in your LD.

Lucid Dreaming FTW. You give me flight, magic, settings to interact with, limitless power, and allow me for a short time to do whatever I want without a lasting consequence.

You rock Lucid Dreaming.
