Bloglovin became of my best friends. Not only does it help me to find new followers, but it helps me find amazing blogs.
Today, I logged in in my Bloglovin feed and found this post by Alyssa showing us how she organizes her desktop, and I thought it will be a good idea if I do the same.
I can’t say I’m OCD, because my room is a mess and there are other aspects of my daily life that are not 100% organized, but when it comes to organization with school stuff, blog, or my computer I’m a freak.
I have folders in my computer for everything. Pictures, school, yearbook, college applicaiton. For every activity I engaged, I created a folder. I create folders inside those folders.
This is how I do it:
I was the co-president of my Yearbook Committee when I was a senior in high school. I was in charge for a part of the book and that meant the first years of our lives. My YEARBOOK folder was divided by periods of time. In my school you can’t choose your classes, you have every class with the same classmates, we have class sections. Inside each folder were other 4 folders, one per section, and inside the picture of the people on that classroom. Each picture was named LAST NAME, FIRST NAME so it was easy to find them. I did this for every part of the yearbook that was my job.
My school folder was the craziest. It had a folder for each year, inside a folder for each term. Inside each term, a folder for each class. Inside that, two folders: one for pictures and one for documents. Inside documents were two folders, one for the documents teacher sent us and one for the projects I have to handle in. Complicated much? Sadly, I changed my computer at the end of my junior year, so I can’t show you pictures. Snif Snif.My Application folder was divided by a folder for essays, which was subdivide by a FINISHED folder and a SUPPLEMENTS folder. Yes, inside FINISHED were other folders, one for the Common App essays and one per university, and in SUPPLEMENTS where the draft essays for the universities, each in a folder for each university. Then I had a folder called Common App, were I download my application. I also had one folder for the requirements, and one for the documents I have to send via mail. Now that I know where I’m going I have a folder for Drexel University too with the documents I have to fill or PDFs with information.
Every folder in my computer is organized so I can find everything I need. I have many others but Ithink you get the idea. I love organizing, I kind of feel like Monica Geller with that! I just wish I can color code my folders in PC (if you now please teach me how!).
