"I can't help it is just the way I am,"I often here myself saying. Although I know what I am is not a bad thing. It has gotten me to where I am now. Without this habit or this urge to continue this habit my life might just fall apart. I would become over-whelmed, and maybe even often times lost.
I am a over achiever, a nerd, a square bear, when it comes to organizing things. I have to have everything written down in my little pink planner if I ever so wish to accomplish a task. Without my planner I would be forgetful, clumsy and my life would come crashing down like the twin towers did on 9/11.
I write absolutely everything down. Not only homework assignments or meetings dates. I go as far as writting down when I should start asking my mom about a certain event with friends or birthdays I want to remember. I tell you, without this planner, this little pink, paper dated planner, I would lose my mind almost literally.
My days are always full and I am more often busy then not busy. ASB meetings, Inner high Meetings, an extra basketball practice, meet with my teacher, interview a student for the newspaper, check on the kids I tutor etc, it never ends. I feel like when I write things down it's a burden lifted off my shoulder to not have to remember it. I am then allowed to clear my mind and but only so that I have place to put something else; like possibly the realization that I am hungry and it's lunch time or that it's late at night and I should probably get some rest!
With hectics weeks and demanding weekends my little pink planner makes it that much easier to live my life.

I know haw you feel, I would be so lost and disorganized without the lists I make.
