Time Management for the Semester

This semester has been my busiest one thus far. Although I am not taking a lot of credit hours, I have so many responsibilities outside of school that are all starting to stack up. These past couple of weeks have been a bit tiresome and I found myself struggling to get the reading assignment done last week. My shadowing and volunteering are starting in the next two weeks so I do not want to change my weekly schedule because it actually fits the times I will be the most free. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays seem to work pretty well for me. I think I might start setting alarms or reminders in the future so that I avoid any procrastination or simply forgetting an assignment. For most of my other classes, I have various different time management techniques. Setting a schedule, even just mentally, helps motivate me because it gives me a framework to work with for the week. Starting earlier on some assignments has also been helpful for me for certain assignments/exams. For the rest of the semester, I know it will be extremely hectic. For this class especially, I think I want to do more extra credit just in case I come across a week where I am very busy, like last week. I was okay last week, points-wise, because I had done enough extra credit to make up the points I missed. For the remainder of the class, I'd like to do a lot more extra credit, especially with exams and finals week in the next couple of months. I'm ready to take it on! Let's gooo!
