Week 8: (Feb 16 - Feb 22): 5/5 Days at the Gym, 5,512/10,000 Words Written, 2/2 Drawings, Calories not tracked
We are now on four weeks where I didn’t write 10,000 words, like I set out to do. While it’s a little discouraging… I mean, there’s still some positive things about this week. I’m still keeping up with school and work, and now finally MCHK S2 is done! I’d give a spoiler about who wins but I’m gonna just edit the video instead of just saying the boot order here.
It’s almost funny to say I’m going to start juggling another thing in with my schedule, but I do think now that I’m done actually filming MCHK I will be able to replace that time with trying to edit the video. I’m not going to set a goal per week for myself on that, but the idea is to try and be done with it by either my birthday or the summer, within that range.
But yeah, I think now it’s been enough time where it’s fair to say that the 10,000 word goal might have been a little overzealous, and to be honest it makes sense. I’d say on average it takes me about an hour of writing to get to a 1000 words, so trying to put 10 hours a week into writing with school, work, gym, and of course just other daily life activities is quite rough. I’m going to give it one more shot before re-assessing the goal. On a positive note, though- I’ve been quite happy with the quality of the work.
Again, drawing was primarily done through art homework- and I have also seen some decent progress in my skill there. Just as a note, the drawings from homework don’t apply to my 100 for the year goal, but I’m still counting them- they’re just on paper and not easily cropped to the website. Hit my goal for the gym again, and am doing decent on weight-loss still.
Overall, pretty decent week besides the snow. Got my new PC and I’ve been loving it for school, work, and gaming. Hoping the next week is better with writing- but otherwise can’t complain.
