In terms of check lists, tasks, and maintaining your agenda.
-Utilize Google Calendar/iCal (Mac)
-Your Google account also has a "Tasks" option to manage your To-do list

], helps you manage everything you need to do throughout the day/week/month/year, and there's an iPhone app for it too! Easy to check off, and it carries over to the next day if you don't finish it that day.
Cleaning your bathroom
-If you've got a lot of mold and scum, pour into a spray bottle half bleach and half water and go to town spraying the scum. Let it sit for an hour and rinse clean.
Acne
Everyone always gets those random breakouts. Invest in a topical over the counter acne medication with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide; I'd recommend Neutrogena On the Spot. 2.5% benzyol peroxide is as strong as 10% but a lot less harsh. Any less than 2.5 is not as effective, any more than 2.5 is more harmful with the same effects, companies use the "bigger numbers are always better" marketing trick.
Productivity
-If you need to really study, just turn off your wifi.
-If you have a Mac, download "SelfControl". You create a blocklist of websites that you spend/waste most of your time on. For example, some of mine are: NT, Facebook, tumblr, DJF, DJTT, CA, etc. When you need to study, you can launch the app, and turn it on for a certain amount of time (30 min, 2 hours, etc) and it will block you from those sites.

-ALWAYS constantly save your work when using word, excel, or anything! It's not worth losing all that time and hard work when you're too lazy to press the "save" button every once in awhile!
