There was a week course that my advisor made me take. The professor told me that I don’t need this class, because I use all the techniques all ready. What he doesn’t know that if I forget to put in an event my world falls apart. It amazes me that if I put an event a week head and discovered I miss it. My brain panics and I have to go over my agenda for each day. He had us plan a hole day in the twenty-hour status.

Here it is:

5:00 Am Wake up

5:01 put contacts in

5:03 brush teeth

5:03-5:10 take shower (While taking shower, I started daydream. The shower ended 5:30. Daydreaming in the shower is a normal thing)

5:30 get dress

5:36 (it takes me a while to decide on clothes) brush hair

5:40 go over to do list for today

5:40-6:20 free time (Read, watch TV, daydream, study for unknown exam)

6:30 still have free time. Getting bored. I know I will make faces in the mirror (I do that sometimes when I am bored)

7:00 Eat breakfast even though I am not hungry

7:30 Hang out at the library

8:00 gather books and whatever I need for courses. Making sure I have everything I need. Put extra supplies in purse, since I am known to lose them.

8:15 lock dorm room, after making sure I have everything

8:15-8:20 extra time incase I forgot something

8:30 arrive early for the first class

9:00 take quiz (Brain is panic, because I didn’t study for quiz. Since you can’t study for quizzes in class)

10:00 go to your class

11-12 PM lunch, also take bathroom break

1:00 last class, writing

2:00 read homework assignments

2:15 start homework

3:00 take break

3:10 go back to homework, and say, “Why me?”

4:00 find out I finished homework, because I forgot to take the break (that normally happens. Thanks to my friend hyper focus, or I get to focus and freak out, stare into space, or just plan forgot to write homework down in my assignment notepad.)

5:00 more free time. Thinking of what to do

6:00 time to eat

7:00 go to the fun activities on campus, because the RA is always telling me to do something.

7:30 arrive at the dance, because I said I would

8:00 complain the music is too loud. (No one seems to understand how loud the music truly is. I have supper sonic hearing. Ear drums hurting.)

10:00 scream, because I wanted to go to bed but newly made friends convince me to stay up late

10:05 In bed

12:00 wake up to use the bathroom

2:00 wake up use the bathroom

3:00 wake up thinking to clock oh, you are going down. Curse and say, “Why do you this to me every day?”

5:00 wake up and do it all over again.

My professor asked if this worked? Mostly, until I woke up at 4:00 and could not go back to sleep. Deciding to unplug the clock as I do every day for time seeming to go too slow or too fast. Normally I extend time for everything too. Add the daydream of me with a hammer destroying clock into little pieces. Somehow find an axe and do the same thing. Then get some TNT and blow up clock. Wake up from daydream and smile. Then look at clock and think, Great thing it is satellite clock.

The dance sucked. Too many people, the music too loud, and I then I cannot stop dancing because I could not stay still. Thinking about taking my revenge on the speakers, but go and drink a new found energy drink. I discovered later that energy drink makes me crabby. Deciding if I should go to bed early tonight.

LOL! I found the assignment and wrote it close to what I had on the paper. Oh, I lost the time management sheet my professor gave. Okay I left it behind, but my time management was more to reality then his.
