Academic Success

I plan to get organized at USC by keeping track of all of my assignments and books. I’ve never really been an organized person per se but I also never really lose anything and always know where everything is without having to look for it. To encourage myself to stay organized, I bought a Mortar Board planner and take it with me to every class. I also have a crate that I keep all of my books, notebooks, and folders and such in and organize them by when I have each class. Honestly, I’m not very good at managing my time. I always feel like I’ll have time to do whatever it is later. But I also feel like I work at my best under pressure. So it’s a vicious circle but a vicious circle that gets things done nonetheless. During college I feel like I do need to make adjustments regarding my responsibility as a student. You don’t have anyone to nag you, which I love because I tend to do things in a more lethargic manner if I am constantly being bugged about it, but I also tend to forget exactly what my homework assignments are and when they are due because I should have so much more free time. Only I feel like I don’t and I am trying to change that.
