Balancing lucid dreaming into my life

I love lucid dreaming. I was getting the hang of it a couple months ago but I kind of lost interest because it was getting hard to balance it into my daily life when school began. I used to write in my dream journal in classes when I had free time but I seem to have less of that now. When I do I can't remember the dream as I did earlier in the day and I lose most of the dream.
I don't have time after school usually and if I do, I don't remember the previous dream.

What can I do to balance this in with all my antics throughout the day?

Get up earlier in the morning and write your dream journal when you first wake up? You'll probably remember more of your dream aswell if you do it as soon as you wake up.

Go to sleep earlier, wake up earlier.
