Number Two

Things have been going well as of late. I've been able to meditate consistently. I've found it helpful to meditate right when I wake up to prepare me for the day ahead. It's arduous to try to meditate at school with all the students rushing everywhere.

In terms of exercise, I've been playing a lot of a sport, which I won't name. I'm also taking those classes that I talked about in my last blog. I'd say I'm doing well in this category, which isn't a problem at all, because I really do love to exercise and I enjoy the soreness.

My diet has improved as well. I've used Ms. Armstrong's recipe for that breakfast concoction, and I like it. It feels rewarding to be making something for myself that's tasty and healthy. I go to the grocery store, and I can make healthier choices in terms of what food I should find in the pantry.

Sleep hasn't improved too much, although this past week, I was actually able to get about 7 hours of sleep each night. Seven hours is a lot more than usual. My sleeping pattern was a lot different though, because I'd fall asleep a lot earlier than usual, then wake up a lot earlier: about 3-5 AM. It's just the way that it worked out. It was advantageous to do homework that early because I wouldn't be distracted by anyone else.

My room is still clean; that doesn't really change. I'm planning on a day soon when I can thoroughly clean it.

the end :]
