Since it's been defined for you, and someone else was curt enough to suggest Wikipedia (boring, it's like answering someone's question with "look it up for yourself", gah)...
I'll move on to the likelihood of having a lucid dream because your friend had one.
First I don't think lucid dreams are exclusive to only some ages groups, it's just the older you get, the better able you are to describe what takes place in a dream you have.
Second, just being aware that you're dreaming, doesn't mean that anyone can suddenly turn that dream into the best sleep fantasy ever, it's simply a level of awareness.
Next, you can have lucid dreams. It's possible, but nothing guarantees it.
Anything you read about it will suggest dream journals, and attempting to program your sleep. All of which are good ideas, but for some of us, hard to get in the practice of...
Do spend some time next time you're in the book store, browsing some of the books about "dreams/dreaming" use the index or table of contents to find chapters on "lucid dreaming".
Having read a few articles, a few chapters, will help you be able to participate in discussions of such, and the more you plant the idea of a lucid dream in your subconscious, the more likely you are to find yourself having one.
Good luck, and peaceful dreams!

I believe it refers to being aware of being in a dream state and able to direct the events of the dream while dreaming! It has happened to me a couple of times - the first time cured me of my childhood nightmares as I was able to say to myself in the dream (at the edge of the cliff) "don't worry! This is only a dream, wake up!". Must have been 4 or 5 at the time.
Next time I was about 17 and was dreaming of something bad happening to a friend and I said to myself in the dream "You should not be dreaming of bad things being done to a friend".
Don't think you can have lucid dreams at will. I am 64 now and those were my two experiences!

A dream state in which one is conscious enough to recognize that one is in the dream state and which stays in one's memory.
I'm not sure but if I remember correctly from Psychology class, it's beasically the dreams that you remember from when you are sleeping. Typically the last dream you have before you wake up.

A lucid dream is one that is rational and clear. It is a dream that is easily understood. Are you sure lucid is what you meant? have a great day. Dream on!

Lucid dreaming is when you're asleep and dreaming, and are conscious of the fact that it is a dream.
