From what I understand, if you are waking durring yout REM cycle, that is when you are most likely to remember your dreams.
For me it happens way too often. I can almost always remember my dreams, I hate when they are so real that its sometimes hard to disifer them from reality. I hate having a really bad dream and waking up all stressed out!
When I was 5, I had a dream that my parents said we were going to Disney World that day, so I woke up early and packed my backpack and was sitting on the couch ready to go at 6:45am. My Mom asked me where I though I was going and I got all mad at her when she told me we weren't going on a Vacation.
