Saturday, June 26th: Super Excited for the WALKING TOUR noon-3pm...make sure to leave at 10:15am or i'll be late again...check the route. Staten Island, Shady Creek / Shady brook tour...should be great, same tour guide who is excellent as another Staten Island tour i was able to attend a few weeks ago. This is a very different location, but still near water/creek/wetlands. a lot of history is involved and i cannot wait!
Sunday, June 27 -
10:40am Dr appt nearby derm. for Botox for underarm sweating - injections stop overactive sweating for 3-6 months. i've noticed some extra sweating lately. this will be good for summer / my work situation...clothes less smelly that i keep at work (fleeces). Since I'm out, stop at the good supermarket near the Dr.
cancel farm, below, bc i'm going on an all day adventure / walking tour on saturday...i will only cancel farm with weather permitting for Saturday's adventure. i'll cancel farm more at a later date when i'm sure i can do the saturday thing, and vice versa.
1-4pm Queens Farm volunteering - excited - but also i will try not to overdo ...we'll see how it goes. maybe there'll be a free veggie to take home for myself or my piggies, depending what it is - maybe asparagus.
6/28, Monday,
6/29, Tuesday
6/30, Wed
7/1, Thurs
7/2, Fri, prob out early?...def do public trans...would be a good day for it....extra time to get home so when i get home, it would be around 5pm, but, i'd still have the time to enjoy a few hours awake; eat a nice meal...also avoiding the bridges and heavy traffic areas on a holiday friday before weekend....public trans seems more reasonable and prob faster for Friday getting home!...
7/3, Saturday - beach if friend wants / asks me???
7/4, Sunday, July 4th! :-D...QUEENS FARM 1-4pm
7/5, Monday Holiday Observance, Day off...HOME.
7/6, Tuesday - maybe drive as the roads might be less busy this week due to people on vaca for holidays...thinking to take this day off; so i have another day to see friend as well as study and do what i want to on this long weekend...
Saturday, 7/10 possibly have bbq with a few friends including seeing the one that had a baby and the beautiful boy! but not 100% it's happening on this date yet. i'm leaving it to the others to finalize bc they aren't responding - so far i'm the one who's made the most emphasis on seeing the baby and actually making plans, the other too aren't saying any date or anything. so i'm waiting to hear from them in the group text...let them chime in before i keep typing.... :) all is good, just waiting bc the ball is in their court!
Sunday, 7/11 - maybe farm? - but maybe nothing - or maybe i take Friday preceding off....gotta think about this weekend...the hold up is not knowing what the other woman are going to say or if the date will work. honestly, if the other women can't see the friend with baby, i may go alone bc it's hard to just wait on people if they are unclear until the last minute. and one has a dr appt on 7/10...so i'm not even sure why she's not just canceling? you see, there's BEACH traffic going to friend with a baby, i wouldn't want to set out there at noon or 1pm...it would be lots of traffic. why purposely drive in that? i'd want to go early to her or late in the afternoon. not midday. i told them all that....then i decided to say since they hadn't said much that i'd lay out and let them finalize...bc i saw they weren't sure....
OK. just wrote too much on sometning that's not planned yet! haha. welcome to my world, I LOVE TO PLAN!
Progress as of today: 5 lbs lost so far, only 0 lbs to go!

Wed, 6/23...
Breakfast: banana 120, coffee 30, some of a sweet potato pie to finish later 210. 360-400
snacks: hot tea herbal (should bring some so i can have it in the AM to warm up); cashews small amount 100 choc 100
600
lunch: salt/pepper on a smaller plum tomato or 2; and a vegetarian option new frozen meal i saw in supermarket yesterday when i stopped in on the way home - 550
5pm-5:45pm snacks:on way home had a snack of PB on crackers bc I do have snacks with me many times, gummy vitamins at home, low cal energy drink, total 250, i forgot i had 3 chocolates 60. and some kombucha 40.
1500..
dinner: will be 1/4 or half a cauli pizza, yes, half the pizza. calories def seem wrong for the half a pizza size is very large. it's by Costco / Milton. and 1/4 pizza shows 220 but the slice is quite large and seems off. 500 i'll say for half pie. maybe more. very filling, but very salty.
2000. now i just want sweetened seltzer!
starting my workout for upper only at around 7:45pm, shouldn't take long, then i'll go to bed!
I got home very late last night around 9pm; because meeting was only 6-7pm but spoke outside to a friend i've known thru work / union for several years (not the person i party with from work lol, more of an acquaintance that i chit chat with whenever i see her at unions...) for about an hour until 8pm outside....then i went to vote and met someone there that was so nice and genuine that we became friends instantly and she asked and we spoke about getting together to do activities. she was interested in what i had to say about volunteering bc her son is 17 and she said he may need it for school (volunteering). so you guys know that i know so much, i was able to give her my 3 favorite organizations and text her the links. she may come with me to volunteer at the farm soon! and i *might* go biking with her - not sure i can keep up with her; as i haven't biked in awhile...but i'll decide later. :)
...luckily there was NO TRAFFIC delays this AM and the drive was sooo smooth ! :) so it only took a half hour this AM. coming home, traffic, took 1.5hrs. always much more traffic coming home...but i have new notes to study and wasn't up to getting up at 4:30am yet this week, so driving is what works best so far this week (maybe all week).
FREEZE LEFTOVERS RICE/CHICKEN/SPINACH meals for this week or next couple weeks...
Thurs, 6/24...drive earlyish to work, do some walking before work along with lower body exercises...trying for this...even if the walking is extremely minimal, it would be cool to get the lower body done early as then i can do lower body sooner in the next couple days, like before the Walking Tour! haha....
Fri 6/25...take public trans?

18.00 June Sunshine Hours;
Keep track of jury duty check i should get in a couple weeks as of 6/11/21.(see if i get the reimbursement jury duty day's pay check by 7/6/21) If not - call union...
Lookahead Dates: Last TOM - 6/3...
Accounting - Must review all previous tests, i'm moving forward...onto Topics 8,9,10 - Chapters 9,6,10. for the next couple weeks or so, until July 9th or so i'll give myself with these topics
Business Law - Sesson 5 - 8/23/21 thru 10/8/21
LIVE CHAT soon but not yet,...Finalize if any prereqs needed - using the school chat option per CUNY email - if i don't hear back about / and maybe submit the actual applications for both the following:
6/21/21, MONDAY OFF - Taking day off as a vacation day #2
Read Topic 7 / Chapter 8. will take exam #2 - as a retake to see if i can do a little better than the first when i took on Saturday and got a 76%. material is progressively harder..ok, still used google and had to search answers, but 85% on second attempt. oops no, only a 68% wowzers. still really lost on the account balance sheet / adjusting accounts, but otherwise did better.
like donkey said, just move on...luckily, the exams are short, usually take me under an hour. the midterm may be longer, not sure, will see...
time for shower, then taking midterm to get it done...(it's simply another test covering both exams 1 and 2).
...accounting I was not as easy just to breeze thru as i thought it would be! ha!
...also the following items are both mandatory for me today and optional...possibly not completing everything, long list.
I already been able to have bowel movement (wouldn't have prob done that till after work if went to work today, so it's just good for me to have the time home to relax / catch up on cleaning / sleep in ; not rush around until tomorrow!.) lol.
SO glad i took today off. Last night i left my parents around 9pm to drive home. there was unexpected TRAFFIC! everywhere! seems everyone was driving to celebrate father's day...one of the first holidays with all covid restrictions dropped. also a few issues on the roads causing more delays. what should have taken a half hour to get home at that hour took over an hour! nutty! but no worries, i was able to sleep in...until a coworker accidentally called me to see where i was this AM...so i woke up a bit earlier than i wanted to, but, that was 7:30 and not the other really early times i get up at when i go to work, so that's good. just glad to not be at work today. got GREAT exercise at the beach, walked half hour with dad; walked hour with mom. i'll even put in 2 hours walking since it was on sand and an active day overall. that's prob the best part. parents were happy. dad always getting overly excitable and annoyed too easily, even in retirement, but everyone had an overall great day.
9am bigger breakfast: blueberries 100, bigger pancake 250, pb 100, jelly 50, coffee 50...sorta scarfed it down, not really enjoyed except from the nice fluffy texture of a pancake.
1pm lunch: bread from parents some dense italian type 200, toasted, butter 50, 2 small roasted potatoes 50?, some of a drumstick 100?, couplle asparagus, negligable, still hungry...maybe stevia seltzer.400, animal crackers 150, passionfruit juice/beer mix imported from Germany (similar to the grapefruit beer) 200..
4:30 light meal yogurt 100, chia 20, nut butter 100, chips 150approx 350
1650...need veggies ....will sauté spinach later!
dinner: this and that...bites of the chicken as i separated all of it from the bones for easier maneuvering this week 100, small bite tofu 50, firm type, some of the cooked spinach as it's the only cooked veggie i have at home..100. 250. so not satisfying but it's like this bc i indulged earlier and don't have a lot of cals left... ;) happens to us all!
1900...ugh...losing my appetite a bit though.
...craving the cauli crust pizza from costco in my fridge that my parents bought me. i wanted to heat it...but i had too much food already in the fridge to eat. so i settled on having the cauli crust later this week - like tomorrow.
having weird stresses / feelings over the whole day today randomly feeling it in my nerves down through my hands...just frustrated that i even need to go back to work tomorrow knowing that i could easily fill tomorrow with tasks just like i did today...but, at least i'm rested. will drive into work...no time to wake up so early and go to bed very early tonight. still need to weights and it's already almost 8pm.

Progress as of today: 5 lbs lost so far, only 0 lbs to go!
if i go on vaca and some days are slowwww, then i'd prob get relaxed enough to poop (never happened so far!)
I confess that I could never grasp the accounting balance sheet either. I touched on that a little bit during some Quick Books instruction (which never stuck with me, either). How about setting a parameter for yourself? Like only re-take the test if you get a 70 (or whatever number) or higher. You did well on the mid-term though - GREAT!
I'd call your day off and your long weekend overall a complete success and that's 100% :-)
yes, you are certainly better off than boss if he's bored on the weekend.
i could never be bored for long at all, if ever. takes a LOT for me to be bored, like you, because we are introverted :)
i will prob only retest if i have to. but, that's the only chapter i had trouble with, so, we'll see if it prevents me from learning the next lessons. if so, i'll have to review it again; but, like you said, only do the work if i have to. this is def not going to be my career at this point...
i'll try to avoid the retesting at all costs because i'd have at least an hour free more today if i avoided it like you suggested.
take off a day when you can...try to fit it in. all i know is taking one day is a lot easier to come back to emails than from taking a week off...
just looking at photos, i do not look too skinny. so i was thinking later in life, really not now as i do not think i could maintain it, i could try for lower / learner. but it's just a thought and may not necessarily be healthy as i'm freezing constantly when i'm at my desk at work but i assume it's due to my lower blood pressure / lower pulse at rest.

Accounting - Currently Studying chapter 8.(topic 7 next...) my plan is to get thru these chapters and be on the next chapter next week...(in my second month now of payments to Straighterline). next test is on chapters 3,4,8 as well as the midtern on chapters 1,2,3,4,8. I want to get these tests completed this weekend and begin taking notes on the next grouping of chapters on Monday.

2200 tops.
dinner with parents: bbq by dad and there's going to be healthy options ...
home not sure what time, but really no worries since i'm not working tomorrow, thankfully.
..Read Topic 7 / Chapter 8. After i finish Chapter 8, I can take both Exam #2 - will do tonight! and the Midterm - will do Sunday or Monday... Then, i'll be almost 50% done with the course...took exam #2 last night (Saturday) did poorly but not poor enough to move forward. got a 76. I can retake, but, i think i'lll just move forward. I reviewed the answers and see where i didn't do well and also thought about better answers. However, i went to retake, thinking it'd be the same test, but it wasn't. so i canceled out of that retake. you can retake 2 times i believe and they accept the best score. well, i guess i can retake it Monday, actually, when i am feeling refreshed and up to it...
then, i will move onto the Midtern which is a test on all the chapters to date (4 chapters). After that, i can move onto the next material in this course...
Father's Day: going to beach with parents, their plan, i'm going in support of Father's Day (don't love beach with parents....like it more with my friend C only). feel weird in bathing suit with parents.
set clock with time to get ready, but waiting for last minute lol and also doing LEG EXERCISES today before i leave my apt.
I gotta hurry up / shave and get ready for the beach, lol., find a bathing suit that is suitable, etc ..at least parents are bringing me lunch (mom made salad and boiled eggs...nice)
6/21/21, MONDAY OFF - Taking day off as a vacation day #2 for this cycle (have 15 vaca, 5 sick)...yes...will put money on laundry card, get oil change???..and study - advance and take 2 more exams on accounting course online..as well as a weights workout.

I did not realize how tired/fatigued you have been, until I read your update to yesterday's entry!
You can decide tomorrow if you wish to re-take test #2, which is great to have that option :-) This is not advice, but just putting myself in your shoes, I'd probably opt just to move on to the next test/chapter, unless I felt that I truly could do better and just got some tough questions... IDK, is it worth expending the time and energy to re-take the test? Only you can tell. I had similar circumstances when I was in paralegal school. Sometimes, I felt that I knew the subject matter than my test score reflected, and would opt to take another test (a re-test). But some of those subjects, I was just happy to get a passing grade and needed to move forward.
Do take care, though, to allocate your energy resources (physical and mental) carefully. (((hugs)))
i took it because i am not sure if my average in this course will affect me...and also since it's only an hour or less...25 questions. if it was longer, like 2 hours test, i would have skipped, yeah. i may skip retakes unless i'm below an 80% going forwards, that's a good idea to skip them to save time on something i do not need to know 100% in life...
you are right to think about wasted energy in retakes, again on something i'm not looking to do for my future as much as get a small understanding / information on it for general reasons for my work now...right!
i am listening to you, your points are very helpful...one thing i've always done in life is put the same emphasis on everything i do, which hasn't helped me...because i've wasted lots of time concentrating on things or saying yes to attend things that haven't gotten me anywhere. you are right...

6/19/21, Saturday, HOME.
last night i fell asleep on the couch after eating, as per usual this week. lots of days where i tried to read or something; and just pass out on the couch. i woke up last night a couple hours later after being on couch and transfered myself to my bed. lol. that's what happened on Wednesday into Thursday and the reason public trans didn't work out - like Bear was referring to - i had only set one of my two loud alarms. but i'm glad i took public trans friday, that worked out GREAT!
8:45am Breakfast: sweet potato pie 210, coffee 40, nut butter 100, gummies eh 150.
11am snacks gummy vitamins / kombucha 50, a freshly hard-boiled egg 100...thank god i made this an hour ago...something healthy in this apt to choose from. i may break away from being as carb-filled in AM, maybe. or it may be similar, but a little more protein mixed in...we'll see as time goes on and i get used to working at the new jobsite more...
12:15pm lighter lunch: thai veg/tofu soup & rice..wow, the restaurant forgot to add garlic and all the seasonings to the soup (it tasted only of cooked squash and wasn't nice)...so i added some salt/garlic powder..rice was a long grain basmati i had in fridge which was very good..200, soup 100. 300. follwed up with those setltzers that now have added caffine, bubbly brand if remember right!
snacks: 2pm white choc truffle 100, blueberries 100
3:30 after waking up from antoher short nap on couch, very tired day, top half of a sweet potato pie 100, 2 wafers 80, coffee 20. 200, some of the pie crust 50.
dinner: 5:45pm leftover thai veggies, some higher cal like the baby corns, 150, stacy's pita chips 200. 350...keeping on with drinking some seltzer with stevia like i've been doing most of the afternoon..
7:45 snack: 1 eggo waffle 100, with pb 100 and jelly 50! 250. very good.
2000.
very tired day......it took me until 1pm to finally be showered and alert enough to do any work for today....the commuting and early wakeups def wear me out during the week...very glad to be home today. already had like 4 bowel movements throughout the morning...TMI sorry...i'm glad to be home, really felt i needed this day to be like this!
Upper/lower strength in evening or late afternoon :-) - thinking this might need to all be skipped until Monday as my body feels tired today.
...Read Topic 7 / Chapter 8. After i finish Chapter 8, I can take both Exam #2 - will do tonight! and the Midterm - will do Sunday or Monday... Then, i'll be almost 50% done with the course..

10:40am Dr appt nearby derm. for Botox for underarm sweating - injections stop overactive sweating for 3-6 months. i've noticed some extra sweating lately. this will be good for summer / my work situation...clothes less smelly that i keep at work (fleeces). Since I'm out, stop at the good supermarket near the Dr.
cancel farm, below, bc i'm going on an all day adventure / walking tour on saturday...i will only cancel farm with weather permitting for Saturday's adventure. i'll cancel farm more at a later date when i'm sure i can do the saturday thing, and vice versa.

7/5, Monday Holiday Observance, Day off.
7/6, Tuesday - maybe drive as the roads might be less busy this week due to people on vaca for holidays...
Progress as of today: 5 lbs lost so far, only 0 lbs to go!
lol, i'm happy to have this day off, too.
i think i'll take more during the summer...
i'm finally happy to be going thru the new package of dozen eggs i've had the fridge for prob at least one month OR MORE. haha
regarding my pay and why i haven't received it, it's usually only $40 a day for JD.
However, i took a course that was 10hrs over a period of 5 weeks at the union a few years ago. after the course, members are entitled 80% of a days pay for all days out on JD. works out well if you get a long period off from work (even a week) if chosen for JD.
anyways, instead of being paid by the company, the union has to issue me a check ... and it's a process. so i have to stay ahead of it to make sure it happens and i get paid.
another thing i have to work out, seems my EZ pass tolls were paid by my checking account and i may have also paid double somehow on the website, when i switched my payments to credit card. may have to call to see how all my payments are showing on my bank account and credit card statements, and if they'll issue either one of them a credit or fix it after the fact!
The best excuse I saw for getting out was standing and saying: Judge not, lest ye be judged, LOL. The judge quibbles with them for a while but always let them off. I know of sinning whoremongers who got off on this one.

LIVE CHAT ON MY DAY OFF, maybe,...Finalize if any prereqs needed - using the school chat option per CUNY email - if i don't hear back about / and maybe submit the actual applications for both the following:
6/18, Friday - do public trans - yes, just in time, got out of bed with practically 15min to get ready. - so i can study on commute ....yes. still not easy to be up though, but worth it for the exercise. approx 1-1.5hours walking is what i'm recording for today.
glad i got out the door and on the bus because i studied and will get enough exercise to come home and just relax tonight, bed early probably and/or take some notes on the next chapter 8 / topic 7.
7amish breakfast: next to last piece of cheesecake 200 (it's good but i'm ready to move on from eating cheesecake lol), banana and coffee 200.
snacks: 9:30am some cashews 100, 10:30am more cashews trying to not reach for the chocolate right now...may need to start improving diet.
lunch: last of the boiled eggs 100, broccoli sauteed but hardly any sauce 100 and some garlic, the foreman of job is ordering pizza for the trailer i'm in...i WILL have some - we will see how cheesy it is!, along with the egg/broccoli, extra tea.... some potato chips 200?... 450 i wish i brought even more veggies to have with this pizza 500??...like when donkey used to bring celery sticks - that would be premiumly perfect! but, luckily, i got some veggies :) lol chips can wait. 700, not filling, pizza was good, but not satisfying.
snacks: didn't want to snack, but the pizza was extremely salty and after having sweet (sf stevia) tea...my body started craving sweets....
dinner: i have leftovers at home. thai tofu soup and/or veggie thai leftovers for Saturday :) or maybe the veggies i get from southern takeout by work...will bring them home on train/bus commute...corn succatash 250 pretty good, sauteed greens were good too 100??, sauteed squash 100. 450 ...will have a yogurt...100, mixed with the top of a pumpkin pie 100...sorta indulging, long day...animal crackers. 160. lately my weight is on the lower side, so this indulgence doesn't matter too much as it's really within the upper calorie limits anyways :) and to reiterate - pizza stinks! never has filled me up, ever.
2260...
I may look into nearby takeout places near where i work since i'm commuting home - perhaps i can get something new from around here to enjoy this weekend or tonight...veggies like indian style or something...will check that...or maybe southern style collard greens....gonna look online at options...
if i want to study, public trans is the way to go...it's just so darn early to get up (4:30am); i feel like i'm hit by a truck at that early hour, very hard to move, get out of bed before 5am (for me, it's VERY hard because i'm also not used to going to bed so early - i may attempt it Thursday night..also means i can go home and relax/sleep early after a commuting day bc i will have exercised before even coming home - thru the commute...).

My alarm is set for 5:15am, and sometimes, I don't get up until 5:30a-ish.
And i chose Friday simply because i can go home and just chill and not wake up early the next day...so if i am really tired Friday, i can then just sleep...and also i do not have to think about doing any more exercises...
But we'll see how it goes...i may continue to work on what's best as it's not figured out yet.
i did go to bed really early last night, but didn't actually fall asleep till after 9- which is still decently early and prob the reason i got up at all!
i have to change around my "daylight alarm" to produce more light, earlier, i think....i think that the light in my room helps me get up - a lot!
now i have to check the opened sweet potato pie i have in the fridge...maybe freeze some slices?
then i'll PROB be done with pie for a bit...and go back to a waffle with pb , perhaps. as an easy bfast at work.

Tonight is a rest night, I may take more notes on accounting to be able to review on my commute tomorrow, if i wake up early enough (means i must go to bed very early...).

What time to you have to go to bed in order to wake up at 4:30am? How does that compare with driving days? Just curious. I cannot remember my coffee-shop bed-time. Thing is, I could take a much-needed nap at 1pm. You cannot do this. With the nap, I think my bedtime was 9pm -- but I was in my early 30's, so there's really no comparison other than knowing that Zombie feeling.
the difference between wakeup times on driving vs public transporation days is a little under an hour in wake-up times (i can get up approx an hour late when i drive...no joke!) i also get home around an hour earlier when i'm driving home.
in order to wake up at 4:30, in all honesty, i'd have to have been sleeping at 8:30 at least to feel good in the AM, i would think.
i also know that varying wake-up times is difficult in scheduling...it's been stated in articles that to keep wakeup times the same is easier on the body to adjust daily, than to keep changing them...i'm still thinking if taking public trans will work out - or if i need to change my days i do it...still thinking about it all.
public trans is only really valuable, i guess, for the study time of being able to read over the notes i've taken at home, to learn them thru repetition on the commute by just continuously looking them over...that's really the only value i think to public transportation. it saves money, but it's just a long commute and the money saved doesn't compute as a value. like i said, it seems the real value is reading / study time.
even driving to work lately, i feel tired because i get up and go without spending much time getting ready...which is fine.
still getting used to the new scheduling of this job / location / etc....
i was thinking to just look over my notes even if i'm busy at work, to just work them into the day...if i do not take public trans. if i do not review my accounting notes, i cannot remember them just be studying weekends...
...still figuring it all out...
but the early wake-up is not very conducive to a regular wake-up lifestyle, but helps me study. thinking to do it maybe just tuesdays (early in week, i have energy)...and fridays (go home and rest, no need to get up early the next day...)
i think i had only set one alarm, and not the other loud one, so i think i only woke up once both were going...yes, it could have been an issue of alarms as well...

LIVE CHAT ON MY DAY OFF, maybe,...Finalize if any prereqs needed - using the school chat option per CUNY email - if i don't hear back about / and maybe submit the actual applications for both the following:
6/16/21 - after work upper bod / maybe legs too - driving to work so I can sleep a half hour more. I think i'll drive to work MWF (the days i work out strength)...and T/TH I will take public trans / study / do more walking on commute. also taking public trans 2x a week will offset the toll and gas expenses when i'm driving the other 3 days. driving will also save me time for days when i want to get home earlier to have more energy to lift at night :)
was going to study last night (take more notes on Ch 4), but got caught up in a phone call...and tonight i have weights, so, we'll see but i don't think it may be possible for me to take any more notes until maybe Thursday, if i get the chance after work....
Walking 15min by work, 5 min at lunch. mile - really that's all i will do today because tonight is upper body :) and possibly lower body...may have to go back to doing those two workouts at once, to free up my days and schedule and planning is just easier...
breakfast: banana and coffee 200, cheesecake small 200
snacks: almonds 50, chocs 100 (will bring in more of almonds and chocs...)
550....
lunch: tofu 100, rest of the sauteed zucc 150, mini bagels not great sorta old 150. black tea not coffee . 400
snacks: - n/a - i don't think i had.
early 5pm dinner: mcdonalds 4 nuggets with buffalo sauce 200, fries 350, kombucha 600, passionfruit beer (similar to grapefruit, but much sweeter and really nice!!) brand is schofferhofer, imported from germany. 250 found t supermarket a couple weeks ago. mix of beer and passion fruit juice the bottle says.
decided to take some notes to study so i have new accounting material to study during my commuting tomorrow...doing this before i work out...will skip doing legs and just do upper body...
7pm hungry / cravings as dinner wasn't the best especially with the high cal beer. reached for these dilll pickle spicy almonds, very good! first time trying. 120

I kind of like the MWF and TTh idea -- see if it works for you. The public transportation is nice because you get exercise and study time. But you give up free time (sleep, home) in exchange. I see this as a fluid situation, depending on how you feel, weather, time.
How many more cheesecake slices are left? :-)
yes, public trans is GREAT for reviewing of notes as the route is quite lengthy and i have 20 min per each piece of the commute to glance at notes. AN HOUR of reviewing on public trans days.
next, the commute is extra long in the morning, yes, using public trans...but in the evening, it is similar to the morning (and just a half hour more or so than if i drove in the evenings). but in the morning, bc of lighter traffic, public trans is an hour more than driving - if that makes sense.
it is good for exercise. my legs were tired expecially due to irregular exercise or lack of cardio lately...so i found the public option was good for Tues / Thurs but right now too tiring to do daily. i feel i can do weights better when i drove home...
yeah, you get me.
and yes, weather will have an effect too...
have a nice day. i feel i got used to all this pretty fast - as i'm older and used to commuting / bringing food to work, etc.

I read stories of people getting up at 3:30am to get to the gym to work out before work. I would see this in a similar light. In fact, getting up early like that is something I would love to do, to have more time in the morning. Unfortunately, that *would* mean going to bed earlier - much earlier I think. Like I'd have to be very disciplined in lights out by 9pm (or before).
And there's nothing to say that you have to do public transit every day. Maybe alternating days, so you have 2-3 mornings of "sleeping in".
Just my thoughts right now... An interesting proposal.
also, since i live alone, i "should" be able to go to bed earlier if i want to be more refreshed for these early mornings.
lastly, i do agree, it may not be something i do everyday - though - that could be confusing on my body - all these different start times...but you are right...to def wait it out and keep trying the options out before saying anything!
plus, coming at 7am, i have time to settle down before working...it's like a free half hour where the main boss isn't here and i can slowly adjust..another reason to keep the 7am and not short-change myself on missing out on the less stressful, first half hour of the day when everyone is just easing into work....along with me, not me after everyone...good points here, def all things i must consider.
i'm enjoying fun breakfats, yes.
