The date is June 27th, a Monday. I woke up this morning around 6am with only little memory of the dreams I had during the night, however I did not get out of bed, I instead lazed around on my couch 'till about 7:30am. I put in some earphones and sort of slept on and off until about 9am when I achieved lucidity in two dreams, one followed directly by the other. The first dream was what I learned is called, a false-awakening. I awoke in my room just as I would any day, however upon leaving my room I found my home to be slightly different than it is in real life. It was not any bigger or smaller, there were just small things such as the railings on the basement stairs, the exterior of the house and the yard that differed. Once I realized the difference, I started to observe the house and the way my family acted. It felt like an alternate universe after noticing some odd behavior in my family, but I deduced that I was most likely dreaming. I questioned this immediately by trying to change a simple object, an odd lemon shaped clock that seemed to appear from thin air. I assumed that since I was dreaming, I could change the clock into whatever I wanted, so I decided to change it into a star. I failed however, and my dream became unstable near to the point of waking me up. Instead of waking up, I found myself in new setting. A second dream, one in which I was sure that I was dreaming, and instead of questioning whether I was dreaming or not I decided to try to take control of my dream. The first big step was the fact that I was able to control my own actions fully, where I went and what I said. I had complete control over myself, thus making this the most lucid dream I have ever experienced. I do not remember the dream as well as I did when I first woke up however I do remember the following events. Firstly, I ran into my cousin inside the dream and I tried to explain to her that we were in a dream. She argued that we were not but once she began to believe me she changed into a different person and kicked me off of the carriage we were riding in the school-like setting. Afterwards I walked down the hall and entered the nearest door which led to another hall that seemed as if it led to the boiler room. I followed it and found myself in an ominous looking area. I do not remember if it was a boiler-room or a locker room, and the events that followed are a bit fuzzy. I remember seeing a cooler and some towels in the room, so its probably safe to say it was a locker room. From what I can remember, the school was seemingly some kind of hangout/night club for teenagers, and there was a garage like area in which the local teens would play video games in what appeared to be vanity mirrors placed on top of dressers. It was in this room that I realized it was nighttime, as I looked out the opening that a garage door would usually cover. There was a cul-de-sac outside, accompanied by a street pole. I interacted with someone in the room though I do not know why, or what we discussed. I just remember that I woke up shortly after, possibly after trying to alter another object. I looked at the clock and it was 9:58am. I lay still thinking about what I had experienced until finally getting up from my couch to confirm that the dreams had ended. I did exactly as I did in the first dream, though this time everything was fairly normal.
