Challenge myself this summer! (read all 5 entries…)
Wrapping up 15 months ago

We still have 3 days of summer left officially, but if the weather is of any importance, I’d say summer is over and done for this year. :(

Let’s see where we stand…
  • paperwork – I’ve done what I could
  • another IT certificate exam – taking the exam next week
  • Java book – w00t! I finally returned it to its owner! phew, that’s a huge load off my chest
  • Java online course – finished the core course! advanced topics can wait until I actually see the need for them :P
  • fitness plan – running more or less 3x/week, occasionally going to the gym, starting to work out at home again (it’s fscking cold outside, the less I need to be out and about, the better) – could’ve done better, but then, could’ve done much worse, so it’s ok
  • cook something new – a measly salad. I need to get off my ass and start eating properly again. I’m pretty sure it’s not possible for humans to live very long on cheese bread and tuna sandwiches.
  • take a swimming class again, if its available – no summer swimming class, but I signed up for one from October to February!
  • find at least 1 event to go to – ahhh, it’s hockey season again, and it started just in time to help me with this goal ;)
  • do the ‘Get Writing’ course in E, C, S – writing in C regularly, but E&S got lost along the way
  • mountain of books to read – argh! I broke down and bought 3 new books today. I mean, it was my birthday, and I didn’t get any books this year, so I had to get them myself. Birthdays without bookish presents are no fun!
  • read M’s dissertation – I can only get it from the other specialist library and they were closed for the summer

Summa summarum: I didn’t really challenge myself. I’ve done most of the things on my list, but I could’ve done more, much more. On the other hand: “perfect” is the enemy of “done”. :P At least something got done. :)

I think you did pretty well! And huge amounts of luck for the exam next week!

I started studying yesterday, because I completely forgot I’d signed up for the exam a couple of weeks ago! *facepalm*
