I’ve been very lazy the past few days. I think it’s because of the lack of sleep that I’ve been getting. The week before the midterm ‘break’ was just exhausting. I could not recover during the weekend because of the work that I had to do plus the basketball game.
It’s mid-week already and I need to get myself out of the bed and start working on some projects. Found this very helpful article on how to boost my mood. Here’s a quick rundown:
1. Get some exercise: I’ve been trying to start this for the past couple of weeks but I just can’t wake up early in the morning to do so. I need to stop procrastinating.
2. Have a catnap: I like having naps. Everyday actually. But it lasts more than 2 hours, not 15-20 mins. as suggested.
3. Listen to uplifting music: Kanye, Maroon 5, Sean Kingston, Timbaland. It’s just a tad distracting though.
4. Take a break and have a cup of tea or coffee: I tried this but the coffee just keeps me up at night when I need to sleep early. For me, it’s more like, take a break and playing poker online for an hour.
5. Focus on the positive: This is my problem. I look at every school project as a very tiring thing to do at the moment. Need to change my attitude so I can start getting things done.
6. Talk to someone: I always talk to my special someone.
7. Switch direction completely: This is good. In fact, I just went shopping with the girl yesterday. The problem I have with this is I tend to get carried away and spend a lot more time doing something else less important.
I’ll take a shower now and I hope that wakes me up to get started on my project. Laters!
