This semester just started and I am BUSY! My courses this semester are very heavy with reading, writing, observations, projects, you name it I have to do it.
Usually, I can organize my school materials in a folder with brads, a spiral for notes, and page protectors for important information. That worked amazing when I had less materials to deal with. This semester I need to carry a binder for each class. Generally I do not like the bulk of binders for school, but since I only have one class a day four days a week it works.
To keep everything together I will be storing everything in a pink bin. The one I am using is collapsible and it will be kept in the back seat of my car. In the past I have used a different tote bag for each campus I visit, and that method works well too. Although, as each semester changes sometimes organization changes too. I decided on this method mostly because last week my binders were flying around my backseat way too much, and I really did not need to carry a tote bag most days because I have my purse everyday.
The bin in the picture above holds: binders for each class, one text book (bought mostly e-books this year, love it!), observation file folder, and my backpack just in case i need to carry extra materials into class one day. My supplies are kept in my purse due to the fact that I use those at work as well.
Staying organized is fun and hard. I like it but I tend to get off track at times. Hey no big deal as long as you work hard, make changes, and accomplish your goals everything will work out fine.
Any organizing tips? Let me know!
