cos i need a PA badly!
i've double booked myself three times in the next 10 days, have a huge work load for uni, the society, home stuff, and my various other ventures. I need someone to sit down with me and draw up some kind of schedule...
i'm still on crutches, still in pain, off the painkillers, had someone on the our sister course die on the weekend- i didn't really know him but all the same a bit of a shock, it seems like one of my friends has gone missing.
ok all of this is a bit stressful, but i'm trying to just buckle down and sort it all out, but my brain still feels like its on a codeine comedown 48 hours after i last took some...
Is there some kind of tool i can use online or something to help me sort all this mess out? or do i just need to go see my therapist?
(sorry i kinda spewed this out, and now i'm not sure where to put it...)

Just plug it into calendar.google.com or Microsoft Outlook (what I do, is sync them together, so online I have my calendar + friends + work calendars, and on my PC just mine).
Im sure you've asked before and I've given a similar answer tho!
does it provide a printable version on google calender?
and i really want my friend to appear...this isn't like her!
One that is advertised as life coaching or something,
Then you could be cheeky and ask for a free trial,
they'll probably ask what you need, then without
seeming too eager say "oh maybe you could help me,
draw up a schedule?" Automatically they'll agree after all
it's a free trial and they want business.
It's just a thought, but I bet it'll work.
or i might see if i can do a swap with someone, like, i'll give them singing lessons if they can do an hour or so of PAing a week...
that might work...
Did you ever have a needs assessment for DSA stuff? One of the things you can get through that is a study mentor who will sit down with you and go through planning time stuff etc. That said, the best solution I've ever come across ( and that's for myself and two seriously badly organised siblings) is some kind of diary/calander that you take everywhere with you. Be that print outs of electronic ones, a PDA or a good old paper one. Just make sure there's enough space on each day to put the amount of stuff you need to on.
That won't work at all. An hour a week won't help you any more than you just doing as Scary Monster says, and carrying a diary round. In fact, it will probably make things worse, as nobody can plan everything for somebody in a week. It needs to be constant. Think realistically here.
Thus i should be seeing the dyslexia study skills support person, but i know the general skills, and she isn't subject spesific...thus kinda usless...
i think i need to start getting my metaphorical megaphone out and do some shouting again...
To be honest my best suggestion would be to sit down with either google calander, outlook or a diary, or even a note book that you write dates across the top of each page of and just write down everything you're doing in there.
And I mean everything, all your lectures, classes, regular society meetings, soaps you watch regularly and keep it with you most places you go. Then write on your hand anything that you decide to do when you don't have it with you and write it in.
