I'm feeling more lazy... no play just work

I feel more lazy. I've not been exercising unlike when I began the year and last year. I would normally jog in the treadmill, but work has unusual hours a few months ago. Now it seems to be improving and I'm considering going to start jogging again.

Setting a sched is not that simple. One factor is that, I have to be in the Gym by 7am if I want a slot at the treadmill. Although it being a rainy season, I should try swimming again. Maybe I could just swim instead. Anyway I have pathetic upper body strength.

I need to leave for my job in Eastwood from makati at around 4pm if I want to only spend 30-45mins driving there.

Then I proceed to spend another 4-6 hours there. Ending at around 8-10pm, where I spend another 45-60mins getting home.

If I can only go there 3x or 2x a week, then I can have dinner with my wife more often. Anyway i don't need to be there all the time. Maybe I'll just opt for Tuesday and Thursday there, and do the rest of the paper work in makati? I have to run that past my bosses. If I can spend 2 days a week in Eastwood/libis I can have dinner with my wife about 3x a week.

Exercise could be x2 a week. Tuesday and Thursday... (why not start today?) Its possible... I've not ruled that out completely. I just had a nutela sandwich for breakfast and instant milk tea.

I guess my problem with swimming, despite how more effective it is for my health, is that jogging lets me listen to audiobooks. That reminds me, I should find a media player for the nokia e63 that allows me to fast forward to parts of a music. I checked the cost of various mp3 players and looked for one that can allow me to fastforward to certain parts, since my audiobooks can be large and i cannot easily bookmark/pause my progress unlike in my old treo 680.
Anhyway, daylight is wasting and I need to go to work soon. Hopefully i can have more sustainable hours. I'm such a slow riser, it doest help I'm really grumpy in the morning.

Technically I'm done with the project

no charter . after learning what a charter is and because they don't work with a charter I'll never do a project without it. A charter is a written agreement with a project sponsor/employer/ in what outputs to be expected and what points are needed to consider a project done. I've never worked with a character before and was continually frustrated and depressed because of constant revisions and fluctuating tastes and expectations. I'd rather be thought of a total prick than to destroy my life working without a charter. This comes up because, when technically my dad removed me from the website project I'm being asked to arrange it again. This fuels my wishes, not to mention memories of unbearable depressions, to really leave the company I just joined in 2 months. Honestly, I'm here cause my parents want me. They can't make me want this job. I was doing well in the 3d artist track, I was poor but well, less stressed and still hopeful of my future. Personally,...

Learning my own Habits outside my bubble while in HK

I only eat 1.5 meals a day. Now I'm eating 3-4 meals per day in HK I realized I killed my hunger with latte (both tea, coffee and coffee-tea). So I'm super bloating and I realize how I was able to keep my eating stable. Now I have to cut back to the old and work out again. But this time  know what I'm trying to achieve. I need bring my glycogen to down through exercise, before my hunger cycle (2-3 hours). What I used to do is take my lattes where there would be meals and I avoided a very big hunger level. I would have a meal of sorts, maybe at night when its family time (not ideal but for social reasons). I also rationed through protein shakes. Of course the amount of lactose in my diet made me go regularly. If I were to travel again, I have to maintain this ritual through cereal bars and canned coffee, and accessibility to the toilet.  I realize I have a limited endurance because of the need to pee and how hard it is to find a toilet in HK lolz. Building a schedule ar...

Exercise Progress

I'm trying to build up my running, with the goal of being able to endure 15kph (Move-8 in gurps) for about 3 hours. The method I want to achieve is through sprinting most of the time and walking. So far I can do 3mi or 4.8 in 30 minutes. I have to more than double that. I have to ideally be able to do in 30 minutes of exercise 8km or 5mi consistently every other day. Then from there build up my core by running with a kit moviing from 5lbs to 16lbs. What I learned that it takes bone strength be able to run, so it has a strong element of strength in the task. You may have the endurance and will, but more often you will damage your own legs and ruin the pace of exercise with an extended rest. being 34 doesnt help, bones are weaker from a life behind the desk and joints are more calcified. It will take time and conditioning to build it up. Probably 2 years of faithful and devoted running. Then after the 2 years probably raise the kit weight. I'll be 38 or...
