UPT: How do you "Stay on top" Of things

[Ipp]

Whether we like it or hate it we all make plans sometimes, how do you avoid missing those certain plans? I myself do the following:

• My clocks are always 5-10 minutse ahead. As i generally run ~15 minutes late to things, this ensures I'm only 5 minutes late which gives me the "Fashionably Late" acceptable entrance
• When paying bills, buying things online, etc. I always keep track of it ina spread sheet in google documents with the following colums:
  Date...Object(bill, ticket,etc)...Note I(confirmation number).... Note II(day of event, balance left, etc).. One to many times I've made a cell phone payment that never went fully through so having those conf. numbers is REALLY handy. and its nice to be able to track if i paid my cell phone bill this month.
• I also have a calendar sync'd between my computer and iPhone that keeps all my "hot dates"

I am a big fan of the Google Documents thoe as it provides an easy way for me to record stupid data. I'm a bit OCD about numbers and statistics, I am one of the few people who use the ratings system on itunes and all ~9k songs I have are rated with 1 to 5 stars.

i use the rating thing on iTunes too!

i also set my clock/phone a few minutes early

if i ever feel stressed because i might not gonna make a deadline for a paper, i just play my iPod for a while and take a nap...it works wonders haha

I set my clock over 20 minutes ahead, I have huge problems getting up in the morning

For everything else I need to remember, I set an alarm on my phone

if i know ill forget something i just write it on my arm with pen
if im using my pc ill make a word doc and just type whatever i need to do in giant letters

I use the notepad, and alarms/timer on my iPod touch, it works great since it's always on me...

[davferg15]

oh yea, i forgot the pen on the arm/hand thing lol...i use that quite often
just dont use a sharpie b/c it takes forever to get off!!!

[TeamMerciless]

I just thought of another thing I could do, instant message myself from school, and I'll see it when I get home...
