10 Strange Habits All Super Organized People Have

When cleaning is more like therapy than a chore.

Being a super organized person means that the majority of non-organized people don’t quite understand us. If you’re a super organized person, there are things you do daily that may make our counterparts think we’re either slightly insane, slightly OCD, or both.

If you’re a super organized person, you probably…

1. We have a morning routine that runs like clockwork.

Turn light on, get out of bed, open curtains, start coffee, go to the bathroom, wash face, brush teeth, make bed, drink coffee, boom!

2. We keep a sickeningly detailed planner.

Full of daily to-do lists, goal lists, and reminders that are color coded and arranged the same way each day.

3. We find great joy in organizing things.

Closets, drawers, dishwashers, you name it!

4. We have to resist the urge to clean and organize everyone else’s messes.

Especially at house parties. We’ve been the people who stop partying to organize the solo cups and sanitize the beer pong table.

5. We take any chance we get to teach people how to properly make a bed.

Like our roommate’s, for example. They know that if they wait long enough after washing their sheets to put them back on, we’ll crack and make their bed for them. It works in our favor, though, because we love the tidiness of a clean made bed.

6. We get very easily distracted by things that are out of place.

The coffee pot is always to the right of the sink on a 45-degree angle! No, the small spoons do not go with the big spoons, they have their own separate slot!

7. We don’t understand people who are messy, like, at all.

How do they find anything? Just looking at their messes gives us anxiety.

8. We may low-key judge them, too.

Clothes on the floor, ew. Dirty dishes on the dresser, gross. Dust on the TV, gag. How do people live like this? We get nauseous thinking about it.

9. And we try to clean up after them.

If we’re lucky enough, our friends won’t care and they’ll know to come to us when they can’t find something. This also tends to frustrate people, though, because most people thrive in messes somehow so being organized makes them lose things even more, which makes no sense at all to us.

10. Cleaning is like therapy.

Some people unwind by watching TV or playing video games. We unwind by re-organizing our book shelves, vacuuming our floor, and rearranging our rooms.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
