I hardly remember my dreams when I wake up.


This sentence has been marked as perfect!

I feel I dreamed, but it's vague.


I feel I dreamed, but it'Most of the time, even though I know that I dreamed, the dream still feels vague. Most of the time, even though I know that I dreamed, the dream still feels vague.

I added “most of the time” since you’re talking about dreams in a general context. You could also say “usually” instead of “most of the time”.

I only catch the dream about its situation.


I usually only catch the dream about its situationwhat situation the dream is about. I usually only catch what situation the dream is about.

The other day, I dreamed but I only called back it was about my childhood.


The other day, I had a dreamed, but I only called backcould only remember that it was about my childhood. The other day, I had a dream, but I could only remember that it was about my childhood.

I think you might have wanted to say “recalled” here? If that is the case, you could replace “remember” with “recalled” in the sentence.

I think I could recall my dreams when I was a kid.


I think I could recall my dreams better when I was a kid. I think I could recall my dreams better when I was a kid.

Since it seems like you’re comparing yourself now with your younger self, I put “better”.

Unfortunately, most of the dreams were scary.


Unfortunately, most of the dreams I had were scary. Unfortunately, most of the dreams I had were scary.

It’s not grammatically incorrect but it sounds more natural to include “I” to keep the consistency since you’re talking about your own dreams, not dreams in general.

Perhaps, I only remembered scary dreams because I was timid.


Perhaps, I only remembered the scary dreams because I was a timid child. Perhaps I only remembered the scary dreams because I was a timid child.

The reason why you put “the” here is to show that you are referring to the scary dreams you had as a kid. Without the “the”, it sounds like you’re talking about it in a general context. Also, saying “I was timid” by itself doesn’t sound natural, since people usually use it as a phrase to describe what they were scared of, like “I was timid of ___”. Otherwise, you could also use “timid” as an adjective. Basically, my point is that using “timid” by itself sounds weird and kind of unnatural.
