Welcome to both Snowmaiden and Bejezt! 
Snowmaiden, the forum is evergrowing with info 
and most is easily accessible at the knowledge base and the BIG stickied topics. Don’t forget to ask if you got any more questions 
Bejezt, it’s quite the opposite, Lucid Dreaming is easier while you’re still in school years! 
Just be confident in your possibilities, I’m sure you will get wherever you desire very soon, with a little practice
