Astral projecting inside a dream?

[TheJakeRockz]

Okay guys, I've always been interested in Astral Projection and lucid dreaming, but never succeeded. I gave up on it after a couple months. Last night I had one of the strangest experiences ever, and I can't quite remember the whole thing, but what I do remember is this.
     Alright, so I laid down and went to bed normally. What I remember of the dream, is that I was in my house and laid down in my house to go to sleep. And then I astral projected. So, Now (IRL) I'm laying on my bed sleeping. and in the dream, I'm laying in my bed sleeping, then in the third "Dream" I'm having I'm astral projecting. Anyway, once I came out of my body I was like "I'm dreaming now, I can do anything, and I have till morning to do whatever." So I started running through my house out to my garage, when I got out there I looked in front of me and my girlfriend was in my garage. After that I just have bits and peices but I remember trying to fly and levitating a little bit, and being in a whole different scenery outside. Running on a dock.  It was all really new to me since its the first time I've ever... Well, I reallly don't know if it was a lucid dream or astral projecting. Cause.. GAH. Anyways.
   Just thought I'd share and see if anyone had any insight for me, I'm brand new here, Thanks!
