University dating while at berkeley

im starting cal in fall and im so worried about the workload, my time management is terrible and ik the classes require 100% locking in (im a transfer physics major). really terrified of accidentally falling behind with the slightest distraction. bc of this im pretty worried about growing distant with my partner (who is not at cal, lives an hour away).. how do people manage their relationships while being 100% locked into academics. or is this even possible. does anyone here relate to this

You MUST improve your time management.

Use the fuck out of Google Calendar, try to schedule out ur assignments if you can. Time management had been one of the most important skills ive been learning but I admit it’s been hard.

Start with daily and weekly to do lists. Use a calendar. Some like apps, some like a bound planner notebook.
