Day 28-29: 90 Day Challenge π
For yesterday (Wednesday) and today, I've done very close to absolutely nothing due to immense lack of sleep and trying to recover from all the exhaustion of being unable to sleep properly.
I knee this challenge wasn't going to be easy all the time, but after napping a bit today and working out my daily tasks and schedules for the next week, I'm feeling confident about tomorrow. I've decided to incorporate a lot more health and wellness activities into my daily routines, especially since I am unable to take my mental health medications due to insurance issues. I figure it is up to me to take charge of my health, sort of as it's own side challenge to keep myself healthy and stable and sane.
Insurance issues aside, I plan to budget for bi weekly therapy sessions, as even without medication, therapy has been life changing for me and luckily I can still see my therapist for a reduced price per session.
This challenege will be a bit more wellness, health and overall productivity based moving forward until the semester starts again which will lead it to be more school/intellectual focused.
I am definitely tasked with a heavy load of mental and physical self work, but these next 5 weeks of low stress and low priorities will give me the building tools I need.

So far I'm on the right track! I'm not sure if listing out actual goals is going to be the most beneficial as I don't want to shame myself into feeling guilty for not completing them, but maybe I'll have one goal per area and then update on everything I've completed within that area? I feel like that'd be a good idea!
I love receiving DMs from other blogs telling me how motivational and inspiring I am! it makes me happy every day. I am so happy when I read those messages. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I love the community I've found here on tumblr. You guys are amazing.

Mini Check In August 19, 2023 π
So I haven't gotten tested because it's the weekend for me, but based on my current symptoms, there's a good chance I have the vid-19. Which is really not fun, but at least I've been dealing with it a bit. I left work early on Friday and am not able to work today thru Monday, which could potentially cost me my job, but fingers crossed.
I am currently looking to apply for a different job on my university campus, and I already know I'll get the job after I apply (my way of manifesting, lol). It'll be nice to do something a little different than my current job, for sure.
I'm going to try to get back to my regularly scheduled posts and routines as soon as I find myself in better health. I feel bad not posting, but I've also been resting a ton to try and heal faster. But yeah, I currently feel like -12/10 in gems of physical health.
Fingers crossed, I'm better by Tuesday! I have my first cooking class on Tuesday evening, so hopefully I am better and can attend because the professor for that class is amazing!
Also, thank you guys for 150+ followers! Just a few weeks ago, when I started taking my blog seriously, I only had 7 followers so having over 150 now is incredible! I appreciate all of you so much <333
That's all for today! Til next time, lovelies!! π©·
Quick Update - July 30, 2023 π
I will not be posting check-ins for today or yesterday, as I have had an emotionally charged, difficult weekend, and I just want to focus on the week ahead and get back on routine.
Thank you, guys, for understanding. I'll post my next check in tomorrow night, and I think I'll post my current morning routine sometime this week as well!!

Classes Fall 2024 π
I'm super excited about my class schedule this semester. As many of you know, I'm double majoring now in Human Nutrition and Dietetics, and Finance! (Also double minoring in Psychology and Exercise Science). I love my classes this semester, and I'm so excited to start my 4th year of university!
π Classes for Fall 2024 π
Integrated Survey of Organic and Biochemistry + Lab - 4 credits
Learning (Psyc) - 3 credits
Intro to Business (Online) - 3 credits
Principles of Accounting II - 3 credits
Financial Literacy (online, mini semester) - 2 credits
My weekly schedule actually looks so beautiful this semester, I'm seriously so so so excited. I was able to structure the schedule so I can work 40 hours a week (haha, expenses, yay!) and still have a complete day of no class/no work and I have the day off of work for my lab too.
I also have the TEAS exam coming up, which will be my entrance exam into the Dietetic program when I pass (manifesting it, wooo!). I'm going to start studying for it by the end of August and I believe the exam is in October? At least the first attempt is. So I'm definitely excited!
Lots to do, lots do prepare for!

90 Day Challenge - Intro
Hello! I've decided that I'm going to start a semi personalized 90-day challenge to help keep myself on track with my productivity! I will have certain goals I want to achieve, and the whole goal of this in general, like my desired outcome, is to build some more positive, healthy, productive habits! I'm going to set in place some rules for myself for this challenge!
π©· Rules for 90 Day Challenge π©·
Must post an update to my blog every day as a way to keep myself accountable
2 goals per category per day MINIMUM
4 goals per category per day MAXIMUM
Be honest with yourself and on this blog!
Be mindful and compassionate towards yourself in regards to time and energy
Here are the categories:
πββοΈ Physical Health
π§ Mental Health
β€οΈ Emotional Health
π Intellectual Health
π₯³ Social Health
π₯° Self Love/Care
I will post every evening/night with what I accomplished for that day and what I plan to accomplish tomorrow.
*I will lump some things together. such as "complete 3 assignments" instead of listing every assignment. and there will be some overlap, as some days I might take a walk for physical health but other days do that for mental health, etc.
This is a pretty lofty challenge for me, and there will be some repeat goals (like studying japanese, doing homework, skincare, etc) but this will definitely give me som direction in my days so I'm excited!
I'll upload my first post of the challenge soon after this as I want to start today! I'll start with my goals for today and then upload tonight as mentioned earlier.
I'm excited to share this with you all!

Daily Check-in:
July 3rd, 2024 π
Twas my payday! I ate some good food, talked to my boyfriend a good amount, called my dad a couple times to talk, went to the store twice, and had a lot of naps.
π©· What I Accomplished:
studied 2-3 Korean Hangul chapters on Busuu
studied a couple Spanish lessons on busuu
reached out and messaged with my future italki korean teacher about our upcoming trial lesson
bought toilet paper + stuff for my injured toe (toe is not broken but was severely jammed, all is well today!)
ate ramen at a Thai place a d had the most delicious Thai tea with boba
tried ice cream from an Italian corner restaurant next to the Thai place
continued contact with health coach assistant and am trying to figure out if I go through with it or not
looked up new job opportunities for when I'm back home (not exactly a fan of the company/job I work for now)
reached out to my 2nd future roommate and got to know her and her dog a bit, also discussed me getting an ESA in the near future and how to go about that so I don't stress her dog out or cause issues
took a long, 2 hour nap (I think the ramen gave me a slight allergic reaction because it had mushroom chunks in it, which I did take out, but still had cross contamination with the broth. I'm allergic to mushrooms, so I took a big nap after I ate. I think the 2 are correlated)
morning journaled
spent time outside
downloaded a few more korean learning apps on my phone and iPad
π What Could've Gone Better
didn't do laundry
ate a lot
did not drink enough water omg
had so much trouble sleeping
didn't workout or take a walk
π Stuff For Tomorrow (July 4th)
do laundry
morning journal
morning skincare
work a 9 hour shift
listen to some Spanish podcasts
complete more Korean busuu chapters
practice korean writing on iPad
calculate how much I'm getting paid next week
π Song of the Day: Shoong! - Taeyang ft Lisa

I'm gonna have a good Thursday, even tho I woke up too early and am so tired. It'll be a good day I'll make sure of it.
til next time lovelies π©·
if I made an instagram account as like an extension of my tumblr, would anyone follow it? Iβd post tips, routines, fave products, etc. it would have academic, fitness, health, lifestyle, girly content. Literally an extension of this blog but on insta.
Daily Check-in Septmeber 14th, 2023 π
This was a good day. Busy, absolutely, but good nonetheless. Had a meeting with my 1st dietetics mentor, and she was absolutely the sweetest and sent me an email after our meeting about the projects she wants me to work on currently, as her mentee. Cannot wait to meet my 2nd mentor next week! Also, I got asked to go into work, so I pulled a 6.5-hour shift when I didn't need to, but I need money so it's worth it.
π©· What I Ate Today -
Breakfast - tuna w mayo and crackers
Lunch - iced coffee, chicken parm, noodles, one garlic bread, some asparagus
Dinner - chik fil a sandwich, medium fries, polynesian sauce
Extra - 3 more coffees in addition to the one I had at lunch
I am overconsuming caffiene so much right now, but I have been understandably so tired, so it's definitely helping me get through my days and weeks right now. I also genuinely enjoy the taste of the coffee I make, so that's always fun. I did just but a matcha set online, so hopefully, I can learn to make my own matcha and cut back on coffee for a bit.
π©· Personal Achievements -
Attended RD meeting
Had my therapy appointment
Planned out part of my upcoming week/weekend
Studied Japanese for ~15 min
I did not accomplish almost anything school related, but that's okay because I'll have the time to do it all this weekend after work both days.
π©· Todo for Today -
take Fitness For Health and Sport lecture notes
call embroidery place about dropping off my cooking class's chef coat
Video call with my boyfriend
Complete my Sample nutrition log assignment + submit it (if I have the time)
Study Japanese 10+ minutes
Because of how busy my schedule has been, I've been studying Japanese daily about 10 to 15 minutes a day. I'm starting to remember the hiragana characters pretty well so I've started jotting down vocabulary in a mini notebook.
π©· Song of the Day - Social Path by Stray Kids, LiSa
This song is on repeat right now. I've always loved both their music and now that they've collabed, I'm on cloud 9. They're voices all sound so good in this song.
That's all for now! Will not be updating the 15th due to working the night shift at my job but will update for the 15th and 16th on Saturday night!
