Day 29: Mission Accomplished...

Well, past the line in the sand, I managed to do just fine. For today, at least. Reporting on the categories.

1. Exercise:

Nailed it. Swam 32 laps of the tiny pool (freestyle), did half an hour on the bike and did freeweights circuit 1. My stroke of genius was doing both the swimming and the bike before breakfast. Juggling three separate sessions of exercise just involved too much willpower and scheduling. So, I split it in two. Bam. My failure was taking 32 minutes to do the weights circuit when I should do it in 30. May seem small but it's important.

2. Domestic:

Cleaned the house. My room remains clean. Bam.

3. Occupation:

Well, lesson learned on this one. The job I was going to go for today was taken down. They weren't kidding about it being a limited time offer. Granted, I saw it on a Saturday and today was a Monday so I probably couldn't have applied in time anyway but still - taught me a lesson.

Other than that, I signed up to ArtsHub to get access to new jobs bulletins in the arts industry, I looked at university websites and browsed new jobs on trusty dusty seek.com.au. I think I need to keep pushing the employment angle - upload my resume, create profiles, so on and so forth. Above and beyond.

4. Creativity

Took a surprising amount of convincing to get me to work on this - thus proving the necessity of the thirty minute method. Made some headway in lyrics, though. I realised, however, that my flow is a bit too cluttered. I'm not going to worry about it for this song (because the point of the song is to make mistakes) but, for the next batch, I want to streamline. I need to write the lyrics in conjunction with the music instead of welding them together.

5. Logistics

Okay, didn't get much done here. Did tee up interviews and reviews for some magazines, though, so that's something.

There you have it. Did it. I completely failed on the reading Les Miserables front but, meh, I knew that was going to be a long shot. Something to shoot for later on, anyway.

Let's see if I can pull it off tomorrow (tee hee hee - pull it off...)
