The Appointed Year Task Planner (they will soon release the 2021 year, but they currently have 2020/2021 academic year planners in stock if you can’t wait until then). These days I don’t go as ham on stationery as I once did, but there are two things (ok, really it’s three), that I have to have to work. A new pencil case! Plastic wrap to cover my textbooks! Ink cartridges that would no doubt end up popping in the bottom of my one-strap Nike rucksack! Those were the days. COME ON! A chance to convince my Mum that I actually needed a set of scented gel pens and those white markers that erased ink. The best part of going back to school was the end of summer Woolworths and WHSmith haul.

TODAY IS THAT DAY! Here’s my step-by-step guide:ġ) I like to get myself into the mood by downloading a new background – something simple and clear so I can see what’s going on. Sometimes you just need to have a desktop clear out. You never know what you’ll find, hey?! But having a streamlining moment is the single best step to prepping for the new school year. I found that going through every single drawer is my best practice and though doing that I found approximately 18979 pens – remind me to never buy a pen ever again – diaries and planners from years back – I kept the one that I planned my book in, but ditched all the others – and found photography equipment that was gathering dust and was ripe for selling on.
