7 Day College Countdown: Five Days!

Hello there! Thanks for coming back for the third installment of my 7 Day College Countdown! Today’s post is going to be focused on organizing my college agenda. I’m a huge planner, from color coding to sticky-noting to highlighting...you name it, I probably do it. Many of these organizational qualities find their way into my agenda.

Throughout high school, I depended on my agenda for everything. I kept track of two years’ worth of orthodontist appointments, hangout days with friends, band gigs (when I was still performing), and even Costco “dates” with my mom on top of all of my schoolwork. Think I’m kidding? Here’s a picture of my senior year planner: 




Over the last few years, I’ve come to realize that my planner comes with me wherever I go. So this year, I’ve decided to use two agendas instead of just one. I have my large agenda for academic purposes, and a smaller one to keep with me at all times. For the third year in a row, I’ve opted for the Lilly Pulitzer academic agenda. 

I’m not going to lie, I’ve been working on an organizational system for this year’s agenda for a while now -- probably since I got it back in mid-July. Getting my official class schedule and a few emails about Salem’s campus activities over the last few weeks has really brought my agenda “together.” I realize that I sound like such a nerd for saying that, but it’s true...



























I’m not going to show what my small agenda looks like on the inside because it has some blog post ideas written in it that I don’t want to give away! But for the most part, it looks the same as the larger version.

Check back tomorrow for the next 7 Day College Countdown post! And don’t forget to like Keep Not Settling on Facebook. 


Keep not settling,
