Month of August

I'm really late for concluding my goal tracker for the month of August.

Not because I don't have the results but more because I keep thinking that I need time to properly write the post. But then, I actually already had the outline of the post since the first week of September but I procrastinated till today.

Anyway, I was thinking of skipping the post entirely because I didn't complete most of the items in my august goal list. I set the goal before August started but come August, I decided that those goals are not really feasible for me to do on top of my daily routine so I stopped trying to achieve them.

1. Drink at least 1.5L each day

This is the easiest goal to maintain. I've been quite consistent at hitting this. The only reason why it is here to stay is because I'll stop doing it once it is no longer a goal. 2. Start the day by 7.30AM

I'm trying but on days that I sleep REALLY late, it's hard to get up. Also, I really need to be waking up the moment my alarm rings instead of lazing on the bed. 3. Reach work by 8.30AM. O shit I apparently didn't. But I'll continue trying although it doesn't seem like it being on my goal list will motivate me to run to work and reach by 8.30AM.

4. Spending at least 5 minute to stretch everyday by myself. I think I did it even less cause my August is quite packed with stuffs that I barely had time to properly rest and let my body recover. Hopefully I'll be able to reset in the months to come.

5&6 Spend time to do rotator cuff exercises & Ankle Strengthening exercises I will try to do them whenever I stretch myself. But I think it's hard when I didn't even do my stretches.

7 & 8. Prepare To-Do-List for the next day. & To-Do-List Progress for the day. This is literally pointless it's been on my goal for a long time (In different forms) but the result has been the same. I've decided to cut it out of my goal tracker in the month of September.

9. End the day by packing for the next day. Honestly this is a really good thing to do for a habit. But I seldom do it cause I force shutdown myself every time as it is getting too late to be awake. I'm still gonna keep it in my goal list so that when I'm trying to clear as much goals before the day ends, I know I have one more goal that I could potentially check off the list.
Lastly, Sleeping before 12 is very hard. I've been trying for many years so I decided to fk it and just change it to a more realistic timing. 1AM is more realistic for me. HAHA

With that, my September goals will be. 1. Drink at least 1.5L of water each day (Unchanged) 2. Start the day by 7.30AM (Unchanged) 3. Reach work by 8.30AM (Unchanged) 4. Spend at least 5 minute to stretch every day by myself (Unchanged) 5. Do at least 10 leg lifts on each side (New Addition for my compression goals.) 6. End the day by packing for the next day (Unchanged) 7. Sleep before 1AM (Slight modification) I think from Sep onwards, I'll cut down time on my hobbies and spend more time to rest my body and try to upgrade myself in terms of learning a new skill or to streamline my life to make it more productive. OK Time to chiong work!

2 Weeks left before Circuit Breaker Period is over

Only 2 weeks left before the circuit breaker period is over. Although I really enjoyed my time during this circuit breaker playing games and goofing around, But looking at the situation, I have got no choice but to start catching up with what I've missed while goofing around. A second extension seem unlikely at this conjunction. Despite still having 600 over new cases tested in the dormitory, the number of cases in the community is quite low. (OR JUST THAT WE ARE ALL NOT TESTED) That means that if everyone follow safe distancing and ensure personal hygiene, it should be safe for people to head out. Furthermore, some of the sectors are already opened for business. Which means that if there is no sudden surge of cases in the local community,  there is no need for further extension. As we are expecting no extension, it is time for us to start working hard to catch up on whatever we have left off while goofing off (Only applies if you are like me). Staying at home makes it hard for me ...

Forgetful :(

Image
Too forgetful lately. Previously I left my wallet in school. Luckily someone returned it to the office and I managed to get it back. Otherwise I would have lost $300 just to get my IC replaced. Went out for surveying with my colleagues today. Took out my tablet for photo taking and recording of notes and then my colleague asked me to help shine torchlight (using phone) at where he wanted to take photo. (To get a nicer photo) Then I totally just put down my tablet on the nearest table and forget about it there! It was until after I left the place, board a taxi, sat down and decide to take a look of the photos taken then I realised that my tablet was missing! Spent the whole journey trying to recall where I left it. My colleague deduced the correct location though my colleague claim to not see me use my tablet when we were there. Apparently after we got back and have lunch and flip through the photos my colleague took, there was a photo of me using my tablet at the room...

4 out of 12

I drafted this post on 30 April I was thinking to spend time after to think of how I plan to finish writing everything whether it should be a goal review + summary or just a normal post.  But I didn't.  So here it goes. ;    April has been an eventful month.  The studio that I’ve been going to for fitness is closed as they need to relocate. Didn’t feel like there were any other studios I wanted to try so I decided to host my closest classmate to do fitness together in my house weekly until the studio reopens.  I’m pretty bad at hosting but I think it gets better over time.  Anyway I’ve also been exploring Pilates while the studio is closed. Really enjoyed doing reformer pilates!  Then, I went on a vacation with a group of friends for the first time.  6 days away and goals are thrown out of the window for the 6 days. 😮 I did pack my bag every day though so that I don’t bring too many unnecessary things out when I am out and about. Next we hav...
