Waking Up

These couple of weeks, my sleeping habit has been terrible as for I am sleeping less and inconsistent. So today I decided to have have a late afternoon nap to recover a little bit. I was sleeping for more than an hour then I started to dream.

I remember the last part of the dream very well. Here it goes:

I was near a large swampy pond. There seems to be large and long fishes in it. I counted them all and realized that there are a lot of them. I dreamed this from the memory of counting mudskippers a few days ago in a swamp near where I stay.

Then I was in a game world. I was looking at this game world through a desktop computer screen. There seems to be some problems with the game. Can't remember what are the exact problems now.

Then I realized that I have to escape from this game world. I tried to wake up but I can't. My mind is just too tired. So I jumped around and wave my arms frantically trying to warm myself up so I can wake up. Apparently, my alarm clock was ringing. I did not hear the alarm in my dream but subconsciously I knew that I have to wake up.

My mind was shaking, I know that I am waking up but it was still slow so I move around even more. I finally woke up. I was in a room covered in stone walls and weapons as decorations. I seem to be in ancient Europe, during the medieval times. I looked around at saw 2 guys, both looks like honorable warriors. One of them was sitting and the other one just arrived/ or left. I can feel that they are the one who helped me escape from that game world.

Then I woke up again. For real this time. It is around 7:38pm.

There has been a few times (quite rare actually) that I experience this phenomenon of difficulty of waking up. I have to struggle real hard just to wake up very slowly and I can experience the weird feeling and trembling of my mind as I slowly become conscious into the real world. However, I think this is my first time that I was tricked by my mind. I experience this waking up struggling phenomenon only to wake up in my own dream again, thinking I have actually woken up.
