The semester has officially started and that means classes, work, internships, and volunteering are all in full swing. With a hectic schedule and wanting to avoid the seemingly inevitable burn out I like to start the semester on the right foot.

This means keeping an up to date calendar, or if you are like me 3 up to date calendars. I use a weekly planner that I keep with me at all times, my big desk calendar that helps me see an overall view of my month, and then a Google calendar so that I can share it with friends and family.

The other big thing I do is organize my closet and figure out what items I am missing and what needs to be thrown out. Here are some of my favorite new items:

 Topshop Twist Front Blouse

 Neppy Wrap A-Line Skirt

 Fur Hooded Puffer Parka

 Hunter Boot Socks (I need all the colors!)

If you feel behind already like me, then just keep in mind you have a long weekend for a reason. Take that extra day to go over syllabuses, order your textbooks, and finish all your laundry!
