tips/hacks

i like to use google calendar bc you can have multiple schedules in one place. for homework/assignment/project hacks, i like to have my due dates moved up by one week, so when i have the alarm go off for it, i know i have one week to prep! it doesn't go off last minute that i get a heart attack, rush to get something done and it be half-assed, yk? hope that helps!

i totally vouch on using Google Calendar, it literally plans my whole life out. I know a lot of people are fans of notion but personally I don't like to use it but to each their own. Another tip is that a lot of people don't actually want to be friends but just aquaintances so don't be upset ( like me) if some people dont reach out to you futher outside a classroom setting. If you do want to foster a connection into a friendship then make sure to talk to them outside of class and plan to hangout and talk about other things than just class. 

Something that's pretty general is to join clubs! Its one of the best ways to make friends/ spend time with people over an interest you love. I can get bored a lot so it's always great to find something btwn classes for me to do instead of dormrotting :P
