 In Mod 0 you've learned about different techniques for managing your time at Turing. Please create a calendar for your **first 3 weeks of Mod 1**. Feel free to make your calendar fit your style, but we suggest that your calendar should include the following:
-- [ ] Standard M1 class schedule (see M1 calendar [here](https://backend.turing.io/module1/)
-- [ ] Study/Project work time
-- [ ] Health + Wellness
