Well, writing out what you're going to cook and knowing the prices helps to work out a better budget for the month. It also looks at spending habits a bit. I mean, if I see a good deal, then I'll give myself that wiggle room of 10-12 bucks for something I know I can use or freeze down the line for a month. I also plan out long-week meals based on how much I plan to eat.

If you're taking something apart with lots of different screws, you can use an ice cube tray to keep all the different screws separate. It can also be helpful to use different color markers on screws before taking them out, making sure to mark a bit of the area where the screw goes so you know which screw goes where.

You can use your pinky finger to wind up the tape in an audio cassette tape.

If you thoroughly clean your room once, all you have to do afterward is keep it clean. It sounds obvious, but think of it this way: sometimes you leave a t-shirt lying around, and it just sits there and becomes a pile. The key is basically not to let the clutter accumulate.

One way to preserve vegetables is by freezing them. For example, with scallions, chop them into small pieces, place them in a plastic container, and freeze them. When you're ready to cook, simply loosen the chopped pieces and add them to the dish while it's cooking. This is very useful for preserving vegetables and making them last longer. (I don't know if this works for all vegetables, but it works for me with cilantro, scallions, olives, etc.)
