PROJECT SHED 15.

The hiatus from running and being healthy has gone on for far too long. Freshman 15 has practically hit me in the face, once again. It’s time to get a move on and shape up. It’s not a joke anymore, and I’m definitely not going to take it as one.

Monday, I’m welcoming you with arms wide open. I skipped out on my first full marathon attempt, and it’s not going to happen again. Full marathon & tough mudder, here I come :D

Reach Higher

Just came back from a rock climbing session. I’m still such a newbie. I don’t want to start working in the city again just so I can keep rock climbing.

It’s such a challenge. I can only do the easy walls, and sometimes I can’t even do those. And then there’s other types of climbing. It’s never ending.

I love a good challenge. Especially, when it’s physical. :)

Reemergence

I am kind of excited to go back to the city. I’m sure I will not be saying this when I am commuting back and forth, but for now I am looking forward to it. Going back to the city of opportunities. It’s just what you make of them, right?

:D

Almost 23

I keep forgetting my birthday’s this Sunday. I can officially declare it is the least anticipated birthday in my life thus far. Will update when I pass the 30-year mark.

It’s sad, because 23 is one of my favorite numbers. Oh well, at least I’ll still have 363 days to enjoy it. I’ve decided I’m going to do one thing for the 363 days that makes me happy, no matter how bleak the day might seem. You only live once, right? Might as well enjoy it!

Lost for 1,600 years, the royal quarters of Cleopatra were discovered off the shores of Alexandria. A team of marine archaeologists, led by Frenchman, Franck Goddio, began excavating the ancient city in 1998. Historians believe the site was submerged by earthquakes and tidal waves, yet, astonishingly, several artifacts remained largely intact. Amongst the discoveries were the foundations of the palace, shipwrecks, red granite columns, and statues of the goddess Isis and a sphinx. The Egyptian Government plans to create an underwater museum and hold tours of the site.

AMAZING

Finances

I need to get control of my personal finances. Time to set budgets and meet them, no exceptions allowed.

"
Then the Lord said to Moses, “When you take a census of the Israelites to count them, each one must pay the Lord a ransom for his life at the time he is counted. Then no plague will come on them when you number them. Each one who crosses over to those already counted is to give a half shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, which weighs twenty gerahs. This half shekel is an offering to the Lord. All who cross over, those twenty years old or more, are to give an offering to the Lord. The rich are not to give more than a half shekel, and the poor are not to give less when you make the offering to the Lord to atone for your lives. Receive the atonement money from the Israelites and use it for the service of the tent of meeting. It will be a memorial for the Israelites before the Lord, making atonement for your lives.

Lackluster

I think my indecisiveness stems from the fact that I have not experienced the endless possibilities that exist.

I thought I wanted this, but now that I’ve experienced it, I don’t know anymore. I want to experience something completely new, and what people would call “exhilarating”.

I thought I was ready to settle down. I thought I was ready to call this my life, but I’m not. The majority of me is screaming and fighting to get out. I’m being pulled in a new way, and now I’ve come to the realization that there’s nothing grounding me here.

Now the question is, what do I do?
