Pov: She Is A Sagittarius 🏹

Daily Check In - September 28th, 2023 🎀

did not do much today by my standards but I’m still recovering from this cold plus my allergies are acting up so I’ve been in bed a lot of today. I did accomplish some things tho so it was not a fully unproductive day for me!

🩷 What I Ate Today -

Breakfast - boiled chicken potstickers, hash browns with ketchup, and a coffee

Lunch - bowl of spaghetti with two pieces of buttered bread

Dinner - two slices of dominoes handmade pan pepperoni pizza and three slices of cheese bread

Extra - three more cups of coffee and not near enough water, half a green smoothie made with frozen fruits, spinach, and almond milk

I have not been eating the best recently and I know that, but I think that’s due to my hormones being messed up at the moment, my current sickness, my extreme fatigue and exhaustion, and a lack of physical activity in my life. However, I decided I’m going to try to go to the gym and get on the treadmill (maybe do some strength training if I’m feeling confident enough) at my university activity center at least three days a week so that way I can start getting some of my energy back and gain some more discipline and control in my life. I’m hoping I get to the point where I can be a runner again, I miss my 8 minute mile time, my running playlist, and how free I felt when I’d go running. So that’s a new goal of mine as well! My boyfriend even said we can go jogging together when I see him next weekend, so I’m looking forward to that for sure!

🩷 Personal Accomplishments -

Did the dishes

Brought my laundry from the dryer to my room (have yet to put away clean clothes)

Night time skincare

Studied Duolingo/Busuu for ~20 minutes

Skimmed through first Genki lesson in preparation for actually studying from the textbook

Showered and washed my hair

made a tentative workout schedule in google calendar for next week

🩷 Academic Accomplishments -

completed and submitted extended assignment for psychology class

completed and submitted lab report for anatomy lab

began paper set up for first section of research study paper for psychology class

again, not a super productive day but I’m still happy with it. I got a decent amount of stuff done and I have some stuff I want to accomplish tomorrow, which I will list below.

🩷 Academic Goals for Tomorrow, Sept 29th -

Complete a rough draft of first section of research study paper before 10am psychology lab

Begin taking notes for module six for my health for sport and fitness class

Complete practical assignment for health for sport and fitness class

~20 minutes japanese study using apps

🩷 Personal Goals for Tomorrow, Sept 29th -

Morning and Night skincare

morning and night guided journal

work on content for RD mentor instagram

Go to bed by 10pm (be asleep by that time!!!)

Drink at least one liter of water

Only two cups of caffeine

Don’t buy anything from the university food court!

wake up early <3

not the most specific personal goals but still things that I know I can achieve! I’m super tired and it’s not even that late and I haven’t done much this week. That’s how I know I made the right decision to take time for myself. always have your own best interest at heart, in a positive and healthy way! Don’t push past your limits and don’t let yourself burn out! It’s easier said than done but taking care of yourself is so important! That’s something I need to continually remind myself!

August 15th, 2023 🎀

My university resumes classes tomorrow! I am so excited to really begin and solidify my morning routine and get back into the school mindset and grind. I'm really planning on being successful this semester.

With the new semester starting, I figure it's time to set out some new goals and things I want to accomplish this semester.

Fall Semester Goals 🌸

🩷 Academic Goals -

Pass every class with an A, no exceptions. I took on an easy class load for a reason.

Join 1 or 2 clubs. There's a club related to my major that I'm looking into, as well as a kpop club and a Japanese club that I'm looking into joining if I have the ability to.

Put effort into my classes. Don't miss class without a solid, valid excuse. Actually study and review class material outside of lectures. Ask questions in class and don't be afraid to go to office hours or tutoring.

🩷 Personal Goals

Stick to a consistent morning routine! Workout, journal, read, make my bed, skincare, etc. Consistency builds confidence.

Pamper myself regularly. For me, this means the occasional retail therapy moment and getting my nails done every 4 to 6 weeks. I don't normally get my nails due to the nature of my job, but if I keep my nails short and not too flashy, it'll be great! My first appointment is at the end of this week, and I'm excited! The picture of nails I included is actually how I'm getting mine done!!

Routinely attend appointments. That includes lab work, therapy, psych, dental, and general physician appointments. My health is a priority, and I want to make sure I stay on top of it this semester.

🩷 Social Goals

Attend study group sessions when applicable

Again, join a club or two. It's the best way to make friends with similar interests.

Attend social networking events on my campus. They have career fairs and professional fairs all the time. As a junior in university, I think it's time I start building some connections for future internship and career opportunities.

I also have some physical goals, but I will not be including those here as to not accidentally trigger anyone. I don't have particular deadlines for any of the goals I mentioned, but I feel like it's important to have these goals so I know the direction I want my semester to go in.

I'm really excited for this semester. It's time I put my best foot forward and succeed. I know I can do this. My GPA will increase, I will recieve more scholarships, and I will pass everything with high marks. I believe in myself.

To everyone also beginning their semesters, good luck!! I wish you all the best success in every way and that you all thoroughly enjoy everything these next few months bring!

Til next time, lovelies !! 🩷

Did not do these yesterday as I did indeed stay for a double shift at my job, so these are my todo for when I get home from work today, 9/29/24!

To Do Today 9/28/24

I was supposed to work a long double shift today at my normal job and then a kinda side job task that involves talking to a ton of people and being out late at night. I've decided I'm going to tell my bosses I can't do it, because the anxiety I've felt about doing it has made me thrown up already 😅

so here's the stuff I am going to do today:

pre lab 24 chemistry

pre lab 25 chemistry

chemistry lecture quiz

catch up on chem lecture notes

catch up on psyc lecture notes

catch up on accounting lecture notes

complete other intro to business assignments

study japanese

study for TEAS exam

It sounds like a lot, but honestly, it should not take me all night to do all these things so I'll be fine, as long as I get then done!

see you in the update later, lovelies 🩷

Language Tips? Study Resources? Productivity?

I have been in such a slump lately (hence my extended hiatus from this blog). But now that things are starting to look up, I am slowly getting my life back together the way I'd like it to be.

Now, I come to you all for help <3

Ohh, and self care tips, time management tips, any advice you have about anything regarding getting out of a slump?

What youtubers do you watch to help? What podcasts do you listen to that help? Whatbpiece if knowledge or anything that you can share with me to help a girl out?

I seriously mean it. Anything you guys wanna leave in the comments, or my inbox, go for it! Book recommendations, TV show/movie/anime recommendations, music recommendations, makeup/skincare/self care recommendations, etc?

I appreciate all of you <3 you guys are the absolute best and I look forward to fully returning to tumblr once I feel better from my slump.

Daily Check-in - July 23, 2023 🎀

Today was an interesting day, and it's not over yet! Though I do need to go to bed a bit early, since I'm waking up at 4:00am during the weekdays. I'm very satisfied with the things I did today, and I still have plans to do some more of my daily habits.

🩷 What I Ate Today:

Breakfast - Iced Coffee, One gala apple (chopped), One banana (chopped), One serving of peanut butter

Lunch - Salad, topped with Tuna (mixed with avocado oil mayo), small pieces of sharp cheddar cheese, and shredded carrots, and one bolillo roll

Dinner - One bowl of spaghetti with marinara sauce, a bit of parmesean cheese, and one bolillo roll with butter

Snack - One bowl of watermelon

Other - Two cups of iced coffee with French vanilla creamer

Water ~ 24oz I need to utilize my new water bottle and drink more water on the weekends

🩷 Workout - Stretching

I love this nightly stretch routine, especially because I can do it in bed right before I go to sleep! It really relaxes the body and helps me sleep better!

🩷 Habits I Accomplished Today

Made my bed this morning

Did my skincare

Guided journal morning and night

Stretch 5 - 10+ min before bed

Read 30+ min OR 10+ pages of a book

🩷 Song of the Day: I AM - IVE

🩷 Current Read: Atomic Habits by James Clear

Day One has been a success, in my opinion. I look forward to waking up early and working out tomorrow morning, and the Greek yogurt bowl for breakfast I'm going to have! It's the little things that make the journey beautiful!

Love you all!! 🩷

Day 28-29: 90 Day Challenge 🎀

For yesterday (Wednesday) and today, I've done very close to absolutely nothing due to immense lack of sleep and trying to recover from all the exhaustion of being unable to sleep properly.

I knee this challenge wasn't going to be easy all the time, but after napping a bit today and working out my daily tasks and schedules for the next week, I'm feeling confident about tomorrow. I've decided to incorporate a lot more health and wellness activities into my daily routines, especially since I am unable to take my mental health medications due to insurance issues. I figure it is up to me to take charge of my health, sort of as it's own side challenge to keep myself healthy and stable and sane.

Insurance issues aside, I plan to budget for bi weekly therapy sessions, as even without medication, therapy has been life changing for me and luckily I can still see my therapist for a reduced price per session.

This challenege will be a bit more wellness, health and overall productivity based moving forward until the semester starts again which will lead it to be more school/intellectual focused.

I am definitely tasked with a heavy load of mental and physical self work, but these next 5 weeks of low stress and low priorities will give me the building tools I need.

April 1st, 2025 🎀

April already? Time is flying, I feel like we barely entered 2025 and now it's April? Feels unreal almost.

I have no work today, so I'm going to spend as much time as I can on stuff that I really need and really want to do! I've done pretty good at getting stuff done lately, especially with school stuff, so I really want to keep that sort of momentum going to try and be more successful as the school semester comes to an end.

Todo Today (April 1st) ✨️

wash dishes 🫧

put away clean laundry 👕

wash bedding 🧼

clean room 🧹

clean cat litter box 🐱

take out trashes 🗑

complete assignment 6 for one of my online classes 💻

daily journaling 📖

night time shower + skincare 🚿

stretch and/or light plates workout 💪

Seems like a lot at first glance, but I have all day to do this stuff, so I definitely have the means to get it all done.

What I Did Yesterday (March 31st) 👑

completed chapter 9 quiz for exercise physiology

worked on chapter 10 notes for exercise physiology

completed assignment 10.1 for exercise physiology

washed a load of laundry

dropped off two packages at the post office

finished paying off my rent

worked from 230pm to 945pm

I feel like that's a good amount of stuff to have gotten done yesterday, given I really wasn't feeling like doing much. Work had been so tiring lately, I'm almost glad the semester is ending because of the toll that work is taking on me physically now. On the bright side, I should be getting promoted in April, so hopefully, things ease up once that happens.

I want to start studying languages again, and of course I'm stuck between my favorite three: Spanish, Korean, or Japanese. I have lots of Japanese study resources, I live in a high population of Spanish speakers, and I listen to lots of music and media in Korean. Which one(s) do I start with to ease back into it? Pick one? All three? Help a girl out!!
