As another semester is upon us, we brace ourselves for all-nighters, stress out on weekends, and drink endless cups of caffeine to get by. This spring semester be on top of your game. Do your work as its assigned, read your text books and go to class (and not sleep). As I m looking forward to an advanced PR classes two business courses and an internship for credit, I am already feeling stressed and over whelmed with the my schedule.
I know we all laugh at syllabus week, but this is the time to start planning out your schedule and scope out new ways to get involved for the rest of the semester. Either utilize a written calendar or an on-line calendar, such as Google calendar, to start working out your weeks. By using a calendar, you are able to see how your days and weeks are going to pan out, that way when surprises come, a forgotten quiz or an emergency group meeting, you already know when you can make room in your schedule.
Start to make note of upcoming due dates. There is nothing worse than bracing a storm of work at the same time in ALL of your classes. Make notes of when the most recent things are due and do them early so when the rest of your classes assign work, you won’t be as over whelmed.
How do you deal with the beginning of a semester?
