I've heard alot about lucid dreaming and I thought it was kinda cool lol. But it's kinda confusing. So what is it really? And how can you have it happen? I read stuff online but it didn't make complete sense to me. Thanks so much!

Generally, since you know its a dream, it means you can exert some sort of control over your surroundings. Sometimes it means you can control everything and other times just some things.
There was a similar question asked the other day and it would probably be best just to link you to that rather try to summarise the answers:
Otherwise, the wiki article is very useful. Just check out their section on techiques. They go over some simple techiques that really can work- like keeping a journal, programming yourself to try to spot if you are dreaming, etc.
