Okay, so I've been reading about OBE techniques here and there for a while...and for the first time my mind has actually stayed awake while my body was asleep. I don't know how I did it and I wasn't really expecting it but it happened. A few hours after waking up, I recorded the event in the following log:

OBE log

January 3rd, 2010 12:ish o'clock PM

After waking up in the back of the Aunt's Suburban from a trip to Minnesota, I got up and went back to sleep on my bed in my room. After falling asleep, I realized that my Mind was still awake,
so I thought "lets try this OBE thing I've been reading about". I attempted to roll out of my bed, and then suddenly I felt like I was falling. I had read it would feel like that, so I remained Passive.
Things were somewhat blurry, and I am still not 100% sure if this was just a dream, or a reality, but I could kind of see my soul coming out of my body while it was happening, as if it were from a 3rd person viewpoint, and then I could kind of see my body there in bed for a second...
Next thing I know everything was really dark, and I was flying up and down really fast. I was not the least bit scared and it was really fun. For some reason I couldn't control where I wanted to go as I had hoped, I was just bouncing up and down really fast, it was so fun. For some reason I felt as though I was a jelly-like substance???? At the same time this was going on, I started to hear everything going on outside the room. My dad was being too loud, moving things in from the back of the suburban since we had just returned from a roadtrip.
Sadly however, I heard my dad slam the front door and I was sucked back into my body and I was suddenly awake, and very angry that my first experience was interrupted. I am still not sure whether this was just a dream of me having an OBE or if I had a real OBE.

So I have a few questions
1. If it were really an OBE, why was I able to actually see my soul/mind/spirit actually coming out of my body from a 3rd person view point? I understand how it's possible for me to see my physical body from a third person viewpoint, but why was I able to actually see the spiritual energy leave my body as well?
2. Next I was surrounded by blackness...where do I go when I am in this blackness?? And how do I choose where I go???
3. Lastly, how do I control my astral body? I was trying to go upwards, but for some reason I kept on bouncing up and down...Could it have been because my dad was making too much noise???
