11 Things Super Organized People Will Understand

Google Images

When someone asks me to name my greatest strength, the first thing that always comes to mind is that I'm crazyorganized. I don't know how I grew to become as organized as I am, but I'm thankful for it. Although some of my organizational tendencies may seem weird to some people, to other people that are just as organized as I am, it's all too relatable. Here's what it's like to make organization your first priority:

1. I use a planner, I love my planner and I'm lost without my planner.

Don't even try to ask me what I'm doing for the rest of the day. If I don't have my planner in front of me, I won't be able to tell you.

2. Color-coding is a lifesaver.

Even my closet is color-coded. It's not weird, it just makes getting dressed in the morning super easy.

3. All of my stuff has a place where it belongs.

If my stuff is out of place, I can't get anything else done until it's where it belongs.

4. I go insane when someone moves my stuff.

How am I supposed to find my stuff if you moved it out of its place?!

5. To-do lists are the only way I get things done.

To-do lists take a close second in the running for the things I need to accomplish anything.

6. Crossing something off of my to-do list is euphoric.

There is truly no better feeling than getting something done.

7. Bed Bath & Beyond is my own personal heaven.

It's a store full of stuff to help you be more organized. What's better than that?

8. Every part of my life is organized.

Yes, even my phone.

9. Other people's disorganization drives me crazy.

I'll still love you if you're disorganized, but there's a little part of me that wants to rearrange all of your stuff because I don't understand how anyone can live like that.

10. I've been called a "neat freak."

And I'm like, "Well, what are you? A mess freak?!" (That'll show 'em, right?)

11. Being organized is great.

Being organized has helped me in more ways than just being able to find that pair of shoes I bought two years ago and never wore or that paper I wrote in eighth grade about President Obama.

I definitely wouldn't give up being this organized, because if I did, how would I get anything done?

The answer to that question?I wouldn't.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
