| 9:00am | Spanish Literature [Bldg200-253] |
| Writing essays about Gabriel García Márquez is hard enough in English; try it in Spanish. At least now I can make sure I'm on the right track by defining and translating Spanish words.
Like any research essay, I have to double space the document and cite my sources. I use footnotes to cite sources. They are automatically numbered so I don't have to keep track of them and they sit in the margins for easy reference. As of today, I can even print footnotes as endnotes, consolidated on separate pages at the end of my document.

| 10:00am | Gym break |
| I keep track of my daily workout progress using a variety of Docs templates. Today I'll be using the Runner's Log:

| 11:00am | Hiking Club [Student Union] |
| The other club officers and I make sure that we cover all important topics by collaborating on an agenda outline before each weekly meeting. As the secretary, I also take notes on the outline so I like being able to customize how the list is formatted.
The officers also work together to make sure our website is up to date. With Google Sites we can each edit the site when necessary without learning html. My favorite feature is the ability to embed maps, documents, and calendars directly into a page. |
| 12:00pm | Lunch |
| I keep up to date on the go by viewing and editing my docs on a mobile phone. |
| 1:00pm | Probabilistic Systems Analysis Lecture [Bldg32-123] |
| This class moves pretty fast. My friends and I sit near each other and take notes on a single Google Doc to make sure we don't miss a thing. With the new equation editor feature, it's much easier to read and understand each others' equation notations.
And whenever I walk into class a little late, I can just do a revision comparison of our shared notes document to see exactly what I've missed.

| 2:00pm | Solid State Chemistry Tutorial [Bldg5-320] |
| In order to lead this tutorial, I often put together some slides beforehand and share them with my students. Now that Google Docs Presentations supports subscripts and superscripts, it's even easier to make and edit these slides.
