I Fell So I Guess I Should Get Up

[zare]

Alright, I'm back

 

(waits for applause... aaaand... nope)

 

Ok I know I'm not that influential here, at least not yet, alright back to business.

 

Alright so my main goal is to pass my next test so in that sense

 

First goal: Diet 

 

I need to get back on track with a proper diet i've been slacking, back to the paleo ( as strict as I can be)

 

STA +4

 

Second Goal: Flexibility

 

My kicks lack height, apparently my hip flexors are incredibly tight or something like that, so I need to make sure that I get those up.

 

DEX +3

 

Third Goal: challenge

 

This is kind of a cop out, but I am going to make my third goal to compete in each one of the player vs everyone challenges

 

STR +4

 

Life Goal:  Career

 

Unfortuantely I still haven't found a job using my degree, but that doesn't mean I'll quit, so again this challenge is to find my career

 

WIS +4

 

side note, I'm stealing from someone here (no names but she'll know who it is, if she reads this) i'm taking the idea of the cheat jar as well if i mess up on my diet i put a dollar in.

[Teirin]

*applause*  Glad you came back!

[zare]

Thank you I am too, just with finishing up one class to recieve my degree and traveling and other things going on I kind of lost track of things for a while

[Kishi]

As the guy who's administrating the PvE's, I applaud your choice for the third goal.

 

 

Good luck with things, and welcome back!

[zare]

thanks, though I could really use that spreadsheet of yours, so that I know how I'm doing compared to everyone else lol

[LadyMonk]

Welcome back!! I like your goals, they seem really attainable. How are you measuring the flexibility one though?

[zare]

well there isn't a real way for me to measure unless i kicked at a wall every day and was able to mark exactly where I kicked and track my progression from there, so what I am going to do is every day I usually wind down the last hour or so with a little bit of tv, usually a Dr Who episode, so instead of sitting in a chair or on a couch I will spend every episode in a stretch switching the stretch that i'm using every ten minutes, per the suggestion of one of my blackbelts.

[Teirin]

Good way to mix stretching and your wind down time.

 

Working on that spreadsheet, I swear.

[zare]

alright no stress, I just want to be able to keep track of everyone else as well. and thank you, I'm hoping that it helps with my kicks i have a lot of trouble with my legs especially with my hip flexors

[zare]

So i trained on grass for the first time, uneven grass... definitely different im more tired from that than from any workout ive done so far

[Kishi]

There's definitely something to be said for training outside. Between the chaotic terrain and the weather, you toughen up in some truly unique ways.

[zare]

well the biggest thing was getting used to my foot placement on an uneven surface that i can't rotate my feet.

[Lou_be_Lou]

well the biggest thing was getting used to my foot placement on an uneven surface that i can't rotate my feet.

aye, and then it all feels weird - right?

 

how's the stretching going?

welcome back!

[zare]

it's going pretty well for the most part, and thank you,  but I am so tired already, i think i might just go back to sleep for the entire day, that means I at least can't cheat on my diet right? lol

[Kishi]

Pretty hard to cheat on a diet if you're too asleep to eat.

[zare]

yeah, i've been sleeping a ton the last couple of days, don't know what that is about

[sarakingdom]

Me too, I've been feeling every bit of lost sleep like crazy.

[zare]

isn't that just terrible, because once you really need to sleep you don't want to lol

[Kishi]

Yup. That's why you sleep as much as you can when you can. Gotta take it while you can get it.

[zare]

lol those are words to live by.

[Kishi]

Well, they ain't killed me yet.

 

So, how's the challenge been going?

[zare]

i've been doing pretty well i haven't really cheated that much a few times the situation kinda forced it but other than that and the fact that i've been working for a family member as well, though i've been a little too sore to do too much for the challenges though I am participating still

[Kishi]

I see. Yeah, family makes this rough. You don't want to rock the boat too terribly much, even if you know that what you're doing isn't what you want.

 

I have no good answers for that yet, seeing as how every time I'm with my family I use it as an excuse to take a break from the way I know I should be. I guess I'd say that it's all good, as long as when you're on your own that you do everything the absolute best that you can.

 

Just my .02, though.

[zare]

yeah, thats kind of how i take it too, thanks for your .02, it's greatly appreciated

[Lou_be_Lou]

Keep it up!
