So this is- this is what they gave me at the beginning of the year. It's just your average paper calendar, and I did use it for a while. You can see right there, I had some writing in it, but it got to the point where I was either forgetting or I would just-- I'd leave it back in my dorm, for whatever reason, and I found that using my computer was a lot more handy.

I don't use a paper calendar because I just find that they can get lost really easy, and you know, I'd always have to carry it around, but at least, I always have my computer with me, because I take notes on my computer in class.

Well, this is my planner, it pretty much keeps track of everything going on in my life. The end of the year, as you can see, is pretty crazy. I was looking for a job, so all these little sticky notes are, like, information about jobs, and who to send my resume to, and then, other than that, like, the rest of the year, I'd make it like, a sticky note of lists to do for the day, like, homework, chores, stuff like that. A lot of stuff with, like, due dates and stuff, I always put it, like, highlighted, and like, so I don't forget, so, like, it catches my eye, and like, a lot of these are just like lists and stuff, like homework.

I have a Google calendar, which is synced to my Outlook, and which is synced to my phone, so they're all connected, all three, so if I add something, or delete something on any one of them, it will sync to all of them, so I won't miss a thing, and I also have-- I write all my-- I usually write all my events down, in my, like, calendars on my computer, but assignments, like, whatever assignments are due, I have written down, like on a written planner.

Like, say I have something for German, I'll go to German, and I'll type, like, study for final, just to kind of remember it, and if it's something really important, I'll leave it on that page, like, for my piano class, I really need to practice, so most of the time, I have it set at practice right now, so every single time I look at my computer, I look over and it says to practice, which means that there's probably something better I could be doing than checking my MySpace.
