Week 1 Starting the Semester

My favorite thing to do anytime I start a new class at all is to go through the schedule and write down when everything is due. Since this class is a little less structured than my other classes I found it very helpful to go through the entire semester and write out what I plan to have done and when I plan to have it done by. Then, if I have enough free time I'll go through and color coat things based on their importance. I am notorious for forgetting things so over achieving on my organizing really helps me. I'm also a super visual person so the more I have on the page that is visually stimulating but is also organized (to me at least) the better off I am. There is a point where there are too many colors or just too much going on, and that's why I specify that I organize things as they make sense to me. It doesn't matter if they make sense to anyone else, as long as I understand what is going on, that's all that matters.
