How I'm Keeping Organised In 2015!

I'm normally the person to leave things to last minute. Literally - I crammed all my Christmas holidays homework into 2 days. I don't even know how I managed to do this, but I finally realised I had to get some organisation into my life. 

By doing two art subjects at sixth form, Fine Art & Photography, my life is crammed up with very little time to do anything else...or maybe thats just me procrastinating. HOWEVER, I decided to purchase a little pocket diary, those that don't actually fit into your pocket...unless you have ginormous pockets. I did this because I can actually see what I need to do for a certain date instead of writing everything on my hand. 

I got my diary from eBay for the cheap price of £1.80, it's such a good price and it includes lots of detail on the first few pages like measurements, currency, weights , etc. I have also used another option which is using the reminders app on my phone as I'm usually on my phone 24/7. So I will always see them because even if I do close the reminder the little icon will annoy me until I've done it.

Another thing that is keeping me organised is setting reasonable deadlines, I'm not the type of person who can do a thousand things at once and I usually have to be in the right mood to do something so I won't do more than 2 subjects within an evening because I will just lose total interest and I won't complete it to my best ability. I will set myself little breaks where I can go on my phone for 5/10 minutes then get back to my work. This enables me to look forward to do something and to also make me work faster.
