Is it normal to remember dreams or things from real life when dreaming?

A few times I would dream and think that everything looks too familiar. I'm usually not aware that I'm dreaming and would think, "I dreamed about this before..." or "I was here before". But sometimes, I think I am aware and would remember a dream or something else I remembered from real life while dreaming. As if my dream "reminded me of that dream"

    It's quite common for that to happen to people. Especially people who have great memory of anything but don't remember it. they can only remember it from their dreams.

    I'm backwards from that.
    I'll be awake and doing something I've never done before or meeting someone I've never met before and I'll recognize something about it and realize I saw it in a dream.
