(I was about to start this post with a lot of screaming. I don't need to do that.) TO DO (because i have no time but that's no excuse because you can't procrastinate your future away) .... (*looks sternly at self) Survive Pick up Korean ID (10th) Register with WWOOF and get a place Book New Zealand plane tickets Get Hep A vacc Organise where in New Zealand I want to go for 10 days Buy a t-shirt Return a pair of shorts to UK (via parents) Deal with mosquito bites Go to Jejudo (14-17) Do other things in Korea my mother has planned (I didn't ...... realise how long that list actually was. Oops?) CHALLENGES (other than myself and my life) #1 food I don't know how to deal with this one because I never know what kind of food I will be presented with on any given day. It may be a day sustained only on snacks, or it may be a meal every two hours, and if I'm going to work on a farm for a couple of weeks, that will do something different. Monitoring my intake won't do much, restricting my intake won't do much. Instead, my goal will be to make any meal at least 1/3 fresh veggies when possible. Or at least five pieces of fruit/veg a day. And only drink one Sprite a day (they're so addictive in the muggy heat and exercise of Korea pls someone help me) #2 movement I'm doing 10 pushups before every shower. I'm hiking every off week because that's on the itinerary. I need something solid and sustainable. Before a shower I'm going to up it to 10 reps of squats, sit-ups, planks (10 sec), and pushups. I will try three sets if possible, but one set every other day is the minimum. Once I am settle somewhere for 2+ weeks, I will go running (not at midday - I don't want to die from heat exhaustion) with the Zombies Run 5k app (they've updated it and I'm rather excited) #3 things Everyday, cross off at least one item for every 2 hours of free time I have on that day. Today I have lots, two days ago I got home at 11 and woke up at 7. Deal with each day accordingly and get things done. #4 words I'm challenged by my friend to write 500 words a day. That's all I need. I need to do it if I want to finish this book. I want to at some point build a workshop and actually critique each other's work with some others, but that will take a short while, and I need a close group that I'm happy to talk with about that.
