Make Lists

Get organized, or in my case halfway organized by creating daily or weekly lists of things to get done. If you need to include "Shower" just to get the satisfaction from crossing it off!
Get up Early

Wake up! Drink coffee! Eat Breakfast! Sounds simple enough, but it took me until this semester to realize that getting up an hour early to have time to yourself is one of the best things! Starting your day early allows you to prepare and get your body ready for the day!
Pack your Lunch the Night Before

Freshman year we thought the food was horrible and the dining halls were a place we wanted to avoid. Now, having to make meals is something to avoid! Meal prep is easy and totally worth the time to get it done. Two times a week I make meals that will last me for three days! The night before I pack my lunch and leave it in the fridge. When you wake up in the morning it is ready to go! Super easy and you just saved yourself time!
Get a Planner and Make it your Own

Add sporting events, homework assignments, test times, and coffee dates! What is cool about it is that it is up to you what you put on it! Just remember to make it cute!!
Build in Study Time

If you are someone who struggles to set aside time to read your 50 page biology chapter write it down. It is one way to hold yourself accountable and when you are done you can check it off!
Dress Well, Test Well

Yes, coming to your 8:45 pm test in sweats is comfortable, but coming dressed and ready to conquer gives you a big confidence boost. BONUS, when you are getting done with your test at 10:15 you can head downtown for a night out!
Get Connected

"Please come see me in my office hours", is a phrase that is flung around in every lecture! SERIOUSLY GO! Ask for clarification on topics or if you need something explained in a different way. Professors take note about who comes in to ask for help! PLUS, when you are looking for a Letter of Rec, you have a great resource to speak on your behalf!
Make Time for Activities You Like

Enjoy running? Go ahead take a 4 mile run! Run your heart out! College is on the best times to discover who you are and what truly makes you happy! Remember to set aside time to enjoy whatever your heart desires!
Ask for Help

Ask your roommates, friends, or family to keep you on track and for words of encouragement! I am a big quote girl, they are all around me! When I find I am having a hard day I find some and remember that everything will be okay!
Get Ready!

You are going to do great things!
