Thinking about all the new things you are expected to do with classes, cooking, cleaning, travel, and people, can seem overwhelming. For now, keep your sights short. Get through one day, with a plan for just that, then tomorrow. After a few days, plan the week. As you do this over and over, it'll become 2nd nature and you can allow your mind to work on the other "problems" like laundry, and personal relationships. Watch what your peers are doing and learn from them, they don't have to be people you know but you can watch what they are doing and decide if you are comfortable imitating. If you're not comfortable, DON"T DO IT! Everyone grows at their own pace, you do what you feel is right.
