Day 54 / 108 Challenge

#54

"I bow to own possessions, but not to be controlled by them."

A slightly better quality of sleep than yesterday, so it was a pleasant morning to begin with. The weather was extremely warm, so I decided to walk to the office today.

Nothing particularly bad was happening at work, but I still struggled to be fully awake and get through the day without feeling groggy. I am hoping that after the exam, I can dig deeper into finding a root cause for this and solve it. I refuse to drink coffee mid-day, that I know will fix this problem temporarily, to avoid ruining my sleep schedule.

Since I was feeling tired, I was worried that it would have negative effect on spending time with my girlfriend. However, that was very unnecessary on my part. As soon as I saw her, I could sense that my battery was re-charging. Even when I am just hearing her complain and rant about her problem at work, I did not feel my energy draining at all.

This is a reminder that how much positive effect she has on me, and how much she cares about me (or more like how much WE care about each other). Spending time with her and her friends today reassured me that she is a GOOD person, and is not like any other girls I had been with.

However, I did miss my workout and some study time today. I must be mindful of not losing myself, since the person she fell for would not have been here without those healthy daily habits.
