Very STRANGE problem

Alright, so it seems with most people not being organized enough in school is a problem. My problem however is I am TOO organized. If Chemistry notes are bundled up with Communication Arts Notes or Algebra assignments are bundled in with History assignments I can't stand it. So lately it has begun to annoy my family and they are asking me to stop being so obsessive. What should I do?

Your family is just jeleous.

There is nothing wrong with being very organized. In fact, its a good thing.

The question is: does that level of organising work for you? Does it help you?

I'm wondering why your family gives a rat's ass that your notes are organized well. It's a good thing to be organized.

My personal disorganization screws with various aspects of my life. GPA, tons of double scheduling, not being able to find something when I need to, the list goes on. Trust me, I would give anything to be somewhat naturally organized. I'd keep doing so were I you.

I'm struggling to understand why anyone would have an issue with how someone else organises their school notes.

I'm not sure what their issue is... So I don't know what to tell you; it doesn't look like you have a problem at all unless you're an organization freak or something.

Throw your papers everywhere.

lets just call this a non problem....

I've personally found that OCD usually correlates with academic success. It seems like every successful undergrad student and all graduate students have OCD, haha...eh, not funny.

Keep doing what your doing. Nothing wrong with being organized.
