Is anyone like me, where your dream always has to start in a weird way if you want to remember it/become lucid? For me, it's always either me watching myself play video games, or watching Youtube videos in black and white (both of which I spend all my time doing). It might just be that eveyone's method of dreaming is different, but has anyone had anything similar, or a certain pattern that undeniably happens at onset of dreaming?

If this is always how it starts, you could focus on reality checking when you do this awake.Check if it makes sense like, look at the letters of your keyboard for a few seconds, see if they change on the things on your screen.The best thing would be to always question your surroundings so that habit can transfer for everyday life, to your dreams.
Me I always end up standing, sitting in my bedroom.This usually happens when I focus on my sleep and go inside my dream straight when falling asleep though and usually am lucid that way.A;though their usually nothing interesting going on in my house unless I start fooling around with lights and mirrors.
I always begin at a familiar scene, my house, my school, a school I went to in the past, an airport, etc. then when my dreams happen, I immediately understand I am dreaming, but since I don't have any will to actively change my dreams (yes, I'm a lucid dreamer who willingly doesn't control my dreams), they continue their course and eventually the dream becomes mroe and more fantastical until I have to return home again, then I wake up.
I sort of have a "dream canon," where places reappear. Other than that it seems to have no pattern.
