It depends if you are so stimulated by the dream that you awake suddenly, or it is something you have been pondering anyway, so it remains prevalent in your thoughts.

Because dreaming occurs in a different part of the brain, that your consciousness doesn't have access to.
We usually have 5 or 6 dreams a night, & if you can remember one, it'll be the last one, as you're moving from REM sleep back into consciousness [awakening].

We only dream when we have REM sleep, this is a deepest state of mind during sleep where our thoughts start to amalgamate and delve into dreams, because it is such an abstract and deep state of mind that would assume that for you to remember it it would take some effort to recall when you are in a fully conscious and awake state of mind.

Well, dreams only last about 20 minutes TOPS. We also have several dreams per night. There may just be too many to remember.

Because if we could remember all of them we would confuse them with real memories

i find it easier to recall a dream if i have the time to lie quietly upon awakening and just let the images free float in my head. abrupt awakening (alarm clocks etc) usually blocks the process.
