WORLD History Encyclopedia is proud to support an exciting Kickstarter project for a mobile app that combines history with fitness: The Road to Samarkand.
The concept is simple: Your mobile phone tracks the steps you walk every day and the app maps these steps onto the Silk Road. Over time you can track how far down you would have walked the Silk Road.
Along the way you can learn interesting facts about the Silk Road and the different cities and waystations along it. All while doing something good for your health!

Tw // surgery
I have now had three surgeries with three separate forms of anesthesia. General, local, and sedative. I shall now rate them with no regard for the context in which they were used or my personal circumstances.
General: 5/10 gets the job done but I thought I died
Local: 0/10 it sucks and I hate it
Sedative: 10/10 I literally did not care what was happening and an hour felt like ten minutes, plus I surprised everyone by being lucid almost immediately after
Overall: surgery sucks but I approve of not suffering for years and maybe dying which was the alternative. 7/10 on surgery—it sucks but I have a flat chest and I'm down four teeth and that's a win.
Its 3am the night after that last one and I can't sleep. 🙃
Afterward: I'm quite familiar with local bc I had SO many cavities growing up—more than necessary, since one of our dentists decided to milk us by recommending "filling" "cavities" every other visit—and that's all local babee
It sucks and I hate it.
I made 🍁/❄️ art for you! Hope you likey! :3 Oki bye! <3

Good morning son
Why do you be up so early
do you sleep? 😂😂
Of course I sleep. But I wake up at 7:30 every morning to begin planning for factory production work and to take care of other business. By the time I shower, wash my face, brush my teeth, do my hair and get dressed, it's around 8:30 or 9:00. And then breakfast is usually next. It's in my blood just to wake up at the crack of daylight anyway. My body has adjusted to the time and it's become routine since I was in my 20s. When you wanna be successful you have to learn to be an early bird. It does get the worm, you know. ☝️
Sleeping in just isn't an option unless I'm dying, it's a sick day or a holiday.
