Okay, back to work now. Too much lazing around, too much, too much. I have to cook and clean to but I don’t feel like it. I don’t feel like it because I have so much other work to do LOL!

It will be over. One day it will all be over. However, I need to work hard to make that “one day” comes.

Come on, get myself together already:
-25 minutes lecture prep
-10 minutes writing the law fair email
-5 minutes law school application
-25 minutes doing something physical

I think just that for now. For the rest of today, I just want to focus on these three tasks. It’s so easy to over-tasked myself just because I need so much done.

3:27 PM 25 minutes lecture prep
3:55 PM 10 minutes writing the law fair email

Okay, my bad, I was on the dating site. I found out (because the guy told me) that I didn’t have my picture on. So I added a couple photos, and now I’m receiving messages. But I need to be firm with myself. I’m not so much after a relationship (though I’m open to it), but only a little bit more experience with dating. Therefore, I don’t need to be on there all the time, sending and answering messages. Okay. Just ONE new message per day, and some responses while I’m there, and that’s IT.

4:25 PM 5 minutes law school application
4:32 PM 25 minutes doing something physical

Housing expenses each month:
-Rent
-Gas (I pay for all)
-Internet
-Electricity

5:26 PM 25 minutes lecture prep
6:05 PM 10 minutes writing the law fair email
6:19 PM 5 minutes law school application
6:26 PM 25 minutes doing something physical. I’m gonna go for a run.

8:04 pm unable to resume work again after having exercised. Sad thing. Ok now, 25 minutes lecture prep.
8:30 pm 10 minutes writing the law fair email

Not sure how it got to be 10:50 PM already. Yes, I made the chicken, but still… Maybe I should do something like the lawyer’s billable hours, hmmm. Keep track of my ACTUALLY PRODUCTIVE TIME. Aim for … an average of 4 actually productive hour per day, starting tomorrow.

Now that I got the law fair email done, I can add another task.

Ok, starting 11:03 PM. That was 46 minutes 27 seconds of billable time. I have done a total of 3.52 hours of billable time today. I guess I should raise the average to 5 hours per day.

These are things that make my life progress in some way. My only stipulation is that they are NOT things that waste time.

Remaining balance for the day: 1.48 hours.
