Brain Rules Chapters 11 & 12

This semester I believe that I have managed my time pretty adequately. At first, it was definitely an adjustment because there is so much free time in college! However, I think once a started a planner and thought about my time it really began to balance. First and foremost, my success depended on my motivation. Next, it comes down to using my free time effectively. Anytime that I had a chance laying on the couch I tried to do homework or even make flashcards while watching television. I really wish I had more time for exercise. Although I try and exercise three to four times a week, it doesn't always happen. I know that this is just another activity for which I must map out time in my day for. I also wish I had more time for friends. Since I'm a very social person, I love time to just spend with my friends, even if it's just a long lunch. I like sitting down and talking while eating lunch and it seems I'm always getting lunch on the go. I don't know how I could really make more time for lunch, possibly planning my classes better when I register in a few days so that I have plenty of time for socializing while I eat, like killing two birds with one stone.
