So this the aforementioned way overdue post ... I was intending on having this one up ready for the weekend... but in the end I decided the weekend was an exception (due to a mild alcohol induced case of cba) and so put the fresh start on Monday ...
Basically things for me took a downwards tumble ... I spent about a fortnight where I did little more than get out of bed for food... I think I went to about 3 lectures ... and my health went out the window...
I guess I had some kind of moment of realisation when simply walking 3 times the distance to the shop left me in a fair amount of pain, that I need to sort my life the fuck out ... I rant/complain (whine like a bitch) about women and dating alot ... but right now (Thursday 25th) I wouldn't date me ... I'm a mess ...
So I'm going to get healthy for starters ... starting Monday I'm going on proper cycling sessions every day ... Not only is this going to get me healthier but it will help sort out my head ... I may have said this before ... but for those who didn't know ... basically cycling takes the place of religion in my life ... it's something I need in my life ... I turn to it when I'm mentally weak ... no matter what it makes me feel better ... and it's real ........ ok so that last part must be what stops it being an actual religion ... but I digress haha.
I'm going to be eating healthily when possible, starting each day with bran-flakes sultana's and a glass of smoothie packing in 2 of my 5 and a good start to the day... and then trying to be healthier with my meals.
Sleeping ... this is a big one for me ... I am attempting to make early starts this holidays... setting my alarm for 8am Mon-Fri and 9am for the weekends ... however this has yet to be so successful due to late night's and alcohol... and many-a snooze has been pressed... which brings me nicely onto my next point:
Alcohol ... I'm not going to say I will axe alcohol because this will be an unrealistic goal ... However as of Tuesday this week I have been sober ... and I aim to stay so for a while ... in theory it will be about until the 9th when I go on holiday ... but I have a few friends birthdays coming up that I may be persuaded into drinking for ... but the thought is there along with the saved cash ... so I will keep you posted on this one and do my best ... but I am thinking I will try and do a month straight once I am back at uni for both mind and body's sake, at one point I was growing a bit of a cider belly haha.
Now as a follow-up to the sleep I will be doing my damnedest to attend all my lectures upon returning ... and before then I will catch up on the work I have missed and make some decent head-way with my coursework ... and cut out pointlessly late nights ... or excessive procrastination:
Xbox ... recently I got stuck into Oblivion ... great game ... and the immersiveness of the RPG game certainly helped me get my mind out of my own world ... but I have chosen not to take it home for Easter, and upon return I shall stick family settings on, to force myself to play no more that 2-3 hours a day... I am undecided upon which limit to go for (lets say first comment chooses - unlikely as that is)
Perhaps this may seem a pointless and uninteresting blog post to ... all 7 of you? :P ... but I need to have some sense of responsibility to follow this ... I have had numerous attempts at this kind of thing fail because I simply couldn't be bothered... which I hope to stamp out by feeling a responsibility to do this because I published that I would and I hate to be a liar ('cause I'm not am I Boo! ? :P ) ... So sorry if this seems dull ... but maybe it will make me a more interesting person ... and so a more interesting blogger ... meh ... who knows? ... but I will keep you all posted and we'll see what happens ...
If you read this far down then big love to you ... any suggestions as for punishments for failing or goals for encouragement? ... well you know where the comment box is ... it would be appreciated ... even if it is just to say "1st" lol
