Sleep event

Lucid Dream Thoughts Hypnagogic I went to bed and did the sleep deprivation experiment and I managed to do it for a little longer, but I gave up as usual, but this time I experienced new things. I started to think random thoughts and tried to do like a buddhist and just observe them, but instead I focused on them, and the black space infront of me started to create vague images, I lost my awareness in this stage, but i was still awake in some weird way or maybe I was dreaming and was just aware of the non-rem dreams, I do not know. I looked at the clock and I had been laying there for 1 hour! The next day was going to be my 18:th birthday, so I was pretty excited about that and i went to sleep. I had a very longer never ending dream about me being in my school. I was in love with a girl and she was also interested in me. Normally I am very nervous around her, so I usually does not talk to her... But in this dream it was not me it was my subconscious saying everything it wanted and suddenly she was interested in me. It felt unreal, but I never become lucid. I was holding her hand and we were talking about a lot of stuff. My alarmclock woke me up, I tried to fall back to sleep. I did fall asleep, but my EILD alarm was to loud this time instead of too low, so I woke up.. When the EILD alarms stopped I was back in that school and I realised that the girl was not interested in my anymore. I asked my friend <PERSON> what had happend? But he just said "She is in love with someone else". I was heartbroken... I then walked to her to talk to her, but I noticed that I was walking in a really weird way, I asked "Oh so this is one of the reason?!" she said "yeah, but.." but I walked away. I woke up to my parents singing and forgot all about this sad dream :( :D Anyway I have done some progress with my meditation and method of staying conscious so I hope that I some day do not have to say that I am gonig to sleep, instead I am going to say I am going to <PERSON>! Which I believe is a state of dreaming. I will be back =)
