August, where did you go?? I wrote you a promise and I must confess I did not fully deliver.
I promised you 31 blogs, 31 pieces of fruit, 5 jogs and one bucketlist item. I pretty much failed at ticking every single box. The final score is:
- 26 blogs
- no clue, didn’t keep track of the fruit but I’d say I did eat more than usual but definitely not every day.
- I did go to the gym every week but did not go out for a run every week. I think it was three times this month and once went to work by bike.
- I added three items to my bucketlist, CHECK!
Now, fun as it was, I will definitely not keep on trying to squeeze my brain like an orange for inspiration and forcing myself to look at my computer screen on days that I would much rather go to bed early. I did however very much enjoy pushing myself a bit and reading back the results at the end of the week. I saw the view count on my blog go up a bit and did definitely notice that the more you write, the easier it becomes.
Some of the things I posted were definitely easy cop-outs and may not stay online forever, but they still served their purpose.
Now that September has crept up on me with the first autumn rains, I have decided to make some new goals. Definitely not as ambitious as posting a blog a day, but inspiring stuff nonetheless. Between now and August 2016 I will
- donate my hair to charity
- learn bee-keeping
- volunteer at refugee foundation
- go back to donating blood regularly after my 6 month hiatus due to trip oversees.
- blog about all the above and more
- get back into photography and post the results
- strike some (let’s say at least three?) of the items off my bucketlist
So, I am ready take on this final quarter of 2015 and get some things done. Onwards we go!
Exactly one week from now it will be the first day of August and instead of starting with good intentions, fresh new promises and strict commitments in January, I decided to just start completely randomly in the eighth month.
