Paralysis

This was a very short dream, or probably just another moment of sleep paralysis. It happened around 5:00 AM in the morning, usually the best time of day for me to go through sleep paralysis. I woke up for a few minutes, and very tiredly, sat up to see if there were any monsters around my bed(what I always do). I did not see anything but I heard the television playing in the next room. I heard my niece and father. I felt so tired I did not even want to get up and prepare for the day. So I went back to sleep. As soon as I feel asleep, I fell in to a dream(one of those dreams where I appeared lost some where in the wilderness in Alaska or some other forest-consumed land). I woke up and automatically opened my eyes. It did not feel like sleep paralysis but I do remember being inside my room. I was able to move a few parts of body. Not knowing that I was in sleep paralysis(not sure if it is a false awakening either), I saw a tall, skinny figure standing towards the left side of my bed. It had no clothes on, pure white skin, and no hair! It was not chasing after me, so I was not sure if I should of felt scared or sexually aroused. After a few minutes, I decided to close my eyes.
