Currently: February 2020
Where the hell did February go? For a month with a bonus day this year (happy birthday to my brother Lex who is now a whopping 8 years old — he’s 32 in normal people years), it still went by pretty darn quickly. My goal this month was to get to work early every day. And that sounds like a really silly goal considering we start work at 10am, but these tiny monthly goals are really working for me. Here’s to more great habits I can hopefully maintain.
Loving
Turning 33! I took a day off from work and had plans of going to the beach but the weather had other plans for me and so instead, I got a massage, went to yoga and ate a chocolate cake. It wasn’t what I had in mind but it was pretty darn perfect.
I’ve discovered this lovely plant based restaurant called, Green Dot thanks to my lovely sister-in-law Ashna and I have to say, I AM IN LOVE. I would eat this every day if it opened nearer my work or my house but I’ll settle for having it multiple times a week. If this is eating plant based, I’m all in.
Tiktok videos are something I didn’t think I’d get in to now that I’ve turned 33 — cause you know, totally an adult now. And yet, I succumbed and downloaded it. First off, the talent that it takes to make one of these is a lot. i’m impressed. But I’m mostly in love with the Washington Post's Tiktok guy. Obviously.
Working On
Getting back on my bike after forever. Having moved houses, I definitely don’t get to ride as often as I used to back when I lived out east so it was nice to be able to get back on it after a while. I’m still not 100% comfortable riding on the road, but it’s good to try.
I got my 3rd cholesterol test and this time, it went up a little bit. It’s a bit frustrating to be honest, considering I’ve been pretty well behaved but I guess genetics is finally kicking in. So this means continuing with my low fat diet and increased exercise. Both are hard.
Anticipating
If things get better with the coronavirus, I’m excited to be back in Manila for a couple of days for a friend’s wedding. I haven’t been back home since August and it’s kind of nice to be able to hang out with some friends and family.
