My goals for this week:
- to work out daily
- to set up this personal website
- to narrate children books
- to do my chores
- to journal daily
this is me feeling embarrassed taking photo at gym |
Working out daily is harder and more time consuming than I thought. This week I did 5/7 days. Not bad though. I have not lost any weight, but I'm getting stronger. It's less tiring to do jumping jacks, crunches, and push-ups. Taking gym class is what keep me going. It's nice to work out with someone although I don't know them personally. It's enough to see familiar faces going there.

treating myself for working hard on the weekend |
Setting up this personal website to look pretty is also more time consuming and more complicated than I anticipated. I decide to buy theme from Etsy and set it up that way. In the meantime I can create images for previous posts even though they're only my daily logs.
actually sit my desk and not work on bed |
Narrating children books in my native language is one of my several personal projects. It gives me a sense of purpose in my life. I used be embarrassed of hearing my own voice. I was so self conscious to enjoy the process of recording. Now I have fun recording. I haven't got a hang of reading to children in an energetic voice. I think I'm getting better as I listen to my own recordings as I have to edit them on my own. I also learn new skills. I'm still trying to learn how to set up audio properly. For now I make do with what I have.
Chores. Do laundry. Clean my room. Clean my desk. My plan was to have them done by Friday. But nope. I got them done on Sunday. Nothing's fun with doing chores. I guess it's part of living life.
The fun thing I did this week was baking bread. I forget to take picture (I plan to incorporate more pictures for blogging). It tastes good but it doesn't look pretty. I was in a rush. I baked bread while I was waiting for the laundry to be done. They're all required waiting time, and I'm not that patience.
That's how my week went. It's ordinary, a happy ordinary week. I feel like I have more to say when I compile my day to day into a weekly log instead of a daily log. I'm going to change things up. I will reserve daily log for my handwritten journal.
I failed to journal daily. I think I only journaled for two days this week. I'm going to try again.
I really underestimate my time and energy level. I've been auditing the way I spend my time daily. I will report back after some time. I need to collect some more data. For now I need to reduce some times for my personal project because health is currently is my top priority. I can't cut down on times I spend at the gym. And it's okay to not check off all of my weekly goals.
Thank you for reading.
