Trello has my back

This simple time management tool has changed my life!

Trello has my back

It's spring, the season to clean and organize. At least that's what they say. It just so happens that I have really made a big push forward to make full use of a cool organizational tool that I'd heard about but never really got into using. I'm using www.Trello.com to organize my life! I started using it to plan for a trip that I took in 2018, but now I use it for almost everything. Here are just a few ways I use it. I use it to take notes for my classes, track my exercise, to keep track recipes that I find online, to organize makeup looks that I like, and I'm supposed to be using it to organize my housework. I love Trello. I have to admit that I started using it to organize my place, but I'm still having trouble sticking to a cleaning schedule. Trello.com might not encourage you to clean your toilet when you really don't feel like it, but it can let you know when it's time to clean that sucker, and it could help remind you of the last time that you did that dirty work.

There are plenty of ways to use Trello, and here's a more detailed example of how I use it. Since Trello is an organizational board comprised of categories and cards (so it looks like a giant grid) when I take notes for class, I write topics on each card and then I click on the card to reveal information about the topic. So, if I am taking a class on grammar, for example, I might have the word, "conjunctions" on the front of the card and have the types of conjunctions on the back of the card. In this example, I would make a different Trello board for each class that I take. It's also neat that I could attach things to each individual card, so it can also function a little like Pinterest.

So, you can have a Trello board with different hairstyles that you like, your dream cars, travel destinations for your next vacation, makeup looks, and just about anything else that you can image. You can attach images to create a large visual Trello board, and you can write more information about each topic on the description cards. Imagine that!

Access Trello on your Smart Phone and you can have your notes in an organized and easy-to-read Trello board wherever you are. I keep track of my workouts right there at the gym. Sure, I have a fitness tracker, but it's easier for my to check my Trello board on my phone and see all of the exercises that I need to do on that day and also see the reps and weights that I completed during my last visit. I always know what I've done and what I want to do next. It's up to me to get the work done.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
