Let's be real, with everything that's going on in your life, things can get a little messy. As a major procrastinator, cleaning can be a, excuse the pun, chore. Here are eight little ways you can clean up your life without too much effort:
1. Organize your closet
Put pairs of shoes together, clean the dirty clothes off the floor (come on, you know it's a mess!), put dirty clothes in your hamper, etc.
2. Re-fold the clothes in your drawers
Because when was the last time that sweater you always wear and always put away was folded? Maybe you'll even discover a shirt that you haven't seen since move-in day.
3. Clean off your desk
Trust me: every time I have a paper or major assignment, I clean off my desk entirely. Some may say it's procrastination, but I say it helps me be more productive.
4. Clean out a binder or two... or all of them
Be honest with yourself-- how many papers are still in there from last semester?
5. Throw away old school supplies
Listen you really don't need that purple pen from freshman year that BARELY ever works. Also, you'll probably have to replace them, and new school supplies makes the world go 'round.
6. Change your sheets
Who doesn't love getting into bed after a stressful day with nice clean sheets on the bed?
7. Sweep the floor
You'd be amazed by what you'll find under carpets that you haven't moved in a year.
8. Update your agendas/ calendars
This is the most important one. By keeping your schedule in order, your life may get into order.
9. Take out the trash
... maybe that weird smell will finally go away...
10. Clean out the fridge
Guaranteed there is an expired yogurt or rotted fruit in the back.
11. Disinfect your workspace
Don't you remember when your roommate was sick last month and then they gave it to you? Yeah, and it happened just before midterms! (Remember to clean your computer off too!)
