My Life Is In My Planner

Anyone who knows me knows that I can’t live without my planner. It comes with me everywhere and has everything that I deem important in it. I hate that I depend on it so much, but that’s just how it is. Fortunately, I have discovered that there is a whole group of people out there just like me. If your entire life is in your planner, you know these five things to be true. (Also, please appreciate the beauty and organization of each of the pictured planners).

1. Spending hours, days, and even weeks trying to find the right planner.

This will soon be an essential part of your life, so it must be perfect. With so many sizes, designs and layouts, it takes quite a bit of research to find the perfect planner.

2. Trying to explain that your planner is your life.

Most people use planners for academics -- important test dates, quizzes, etc. But then there is a whole other category of us who are 100 percent dependent on our planners. Everything from academic due dates to extracurriculars and meeting times to simpler tasks like when to eat lunch or when to go to bed is neatly prepared. Essentially, our entire lives are outlined in that little book.

3. Planning how to plan your planner.

Yes, this is a thing. Color, handwriting, format?? There are so many options that must be considered.

4. Feeling nothing but fear when you misplace your planner.

This is honestly one of the worst fears ever, and I wouldn’t wish losing a detailed agenda on my worst enemy. As explained in #2, our planners are our lives. When something so significant is misplaced or even lost, it may feel as though the world is ending. (This feeling can't/shouldn't be pictured, so here is another amazing planner instead).

5. Feeling completely satisfied when everything is crossed off your to-do list at the end of the week.

There is nothing better than looking back on your week and seeing everything crossed off. You feel accomplished and motivated to get everything done the next week.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
