How I Use 5 Tools to Stay Organized in School 😅🌸

How I Use 5 Tools to Stay Organized in School (and Keep My Sanity) 😅🌸

1.Google Calendar 📅

This is like my personal assistant. I block out my classes, study sessions, workouts, and even “do nothing” time. For example, if I know I have a math test on Friday, I set reminders to review throughout the week.⏰ Plus, syncing it with my phone means no excuses for forgetting anything.

2. Google Sheets 📊

Okay, hear me out—Sheets isn’t just for boring spreadsheets. I use it to track my study hours 📚, group project progress , and even my monthly spending (aka how much I blow on boba). One time, I made a “study tracker” with color-coded sections, and it actually made studying… kinda fun?

3. Notion 📝

Notion is my digital everything . It’s where I organize class notes , project ideas 💡, and even my wishlist. I made a Notion page for each subject with cute icons and a to-do list—it makes me feel like I have my life together, even if I don’t, lol.

4. Evernote ✍️

Evernote is perfect for those random moments of inspiration. Sometimes I’ll be at the gym or in the middle of a lecture, and an idea for an essay or project will pop into my head 💭. I just open the app, jot it down, and forget about it until later.

5. Trello 📋

Trello is the GOAT for group projects 👑. I set up boards with deadlines for each task and tag my group members. No more “idk what I’m supposed to do” texts 💬. Plus, dragging cards to the “done” section is SO satisfying.
