I feel your pain!! When I was in school, I was taking a full course load, had 2 jobs at some points, director of an ensemble for another organization, sorority officer, member of about 3 or 4 other org's, advisor to a freshman org, sang in a community choir......the list goes on and on. You learn quickly to either say no, or budget your time wisely.
co-sign on the dayplanner!!!! Mine kept me sane alot of times. Make sure you always know what you HAVE to do, and WHEN......don't overbook yourself or you will be miserable.
*Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it, or delegate if you can.*
This is probably one of the hardest things to learn, but totally worth it.
