Organizing everything in Google Calendar?

article image placeholderUploaded by @samuelpenate
I don't necessarily like to say that I get lunch, but rather than getting maybe like a tea or maybe some sort of juice because I technically like getting something to drink while I'm distressing and not scrolling on my phone all the time though, rather than just take the time to take a breeze, hang out and distress all the emotions that I have to go through my daily basis at work. But what I truly appreciate about working at Starbucks is that I get to connect with people though

I like it because I can just flip to the day that I'm on and be like, okay, I need to do this and this and this. And it's almost like I'm being told what to do so I don't have to think about it or stress about it. And I know that I made the schedule, but when I can just make my schedule for the week and then have something to go by step by step every day of the week, it's so helpful for me

Hey, Sam, I'm really glad that you're talking about being organized, because just today I was just, like, getting curious, stressed out because I forgot my planner, and I wanted to write down some homework assignments I had during class. And I was, like, looking around online for online planners. And I found this really cool one called My Study life

Too many calendar apps!

Samuel I love this post because just today I was telling about how like how many different calendar services there are. Like at work. We're encouraged to use Outlook so we're using Outlook Calendar. I guess that's what it's called. But my email from my College is set up through Gmail. So then I guess I'm using Google Calendar and I have the Google Calendar app on my phone

Wow. I love how everybody has different ideas about their schedules and how to organize themselves. I personally use two apps in general though. I use the Google Calendar though because it has different colors and I personally, I am color blind and I struggle sometimes to see the colors. Every once in a while I am able to see green. I'm obsessed with green. That's one of the reasons why everything is green in my closet though

I did a couple of jobs that required me to wake up super early and then I would barely get a nap or eat and then have to go to class and then sometimes work my second job and it can get really stressful and hectic. But I find that using my phone, it really helps. I put every single thing in my phone to this day, every single thing, even if it's just hanging out with friends because my memory sucks. I will forget to even do leisure activities

So if I'm running late or if I forgot I have an event later or something like that that will show up on my notifications on my phone. And I honestly think it's like the best thing in the whole world. I've also heard lately that the Apple Calendars works really well if you have an Apple Watch. But when you look at Apple Calendar, it just is a little more confusing

So I don't really use Google Calendar, but I use three kind of different ways of organizing my schedule. So I use pike the Apple Calendar app for all my physical activities. So let's say I have a meeting, or I have class, or I have something planned with a friend. I put all those things in my Apple calendar, and then I have my big calendar that lays on my desk. It's just pike a huge calendar

I use an inbuilt feature of quick notes to organise my work.

So recently I have found this in built feature in my phone where I could make quick notes and they would be available on my home screen. So this has pretty much worked for me till date. That's the only thing I do to organize my work. Thank you

When I started working on my thesis, it was mind blowing because I had to organize everything for my two jobs for my internship. And it really took a lot of time for me to understand that putting everything in calendars really helps a lot. And it makes me happy when I hear people just doing the same thing. Just like either because I'm not the only one doing it, though

And usually at the beginning of the week or when I get to my first class in the morning, I'll write out everything I need to do that day or things I know I need to get done by the end of the week. And I don't know, writing it down just helps me get it into head, I guess
