College Organization: iCal

Hi everybody!

I can't believe the first week of second semester is already over! I'm already enjoying all my classes, and I missed my college friends so much! Now that it's a new year and a new semester, I thought I'd share with y'all some of my tips for staying organized in college starting with one of my favorite tools: iCal! I definitely use iCal on a daily basis as a electronic backup to my planner (which I still live out of). Everything I need to do on a certain day goes on the iCal just like it goes into the planner, and it's really helped with my time management. I can see when I'm in class and when I have free time, and I can use that when I go to make my daily to-do list in my planner.



There's what a typical week looks like for me -- I never realize how busy I am until I see it in this format! I'm usually not into color coding, but I like to use it here because it helps me see at a glance what type of activity I'll be doing!

Hope y'all can use this in the upcoming semester!

Have a lovely day!
XO,
Carson

  1. I use ical and Lilly planner. I just need to sit down and figure out how to add my work out schedule and stuff into my big schedule without it looking overwhelming.
