So one of the reasons I haven't been blogging much lately, other than my recent passion for cooking, is because I've been generally overwhelmed. I'm not talking culture shock this time, but rather life-overwhelmedness. Days and weeks go by really fast, yet I don't feel like I'm accomplishing a whole lot so I'm trying a new approach.
I want to wake up earlier in the morning. Slowly start rising around 8am instead of 9am... that change can be gradual and I'm not sure if fully recommended since I can barely keep my eyes open around 11pm anymore. I do, however, often make it to midnight!
I want to study Finnish first thing every morning. I've been waking up and eating while I check Facebook and decided, that's just not a good way to start the day. I had emails and messages piling up all over the place and nothing was getting done. I wasn't even blogging because I couldn't be bothered at the time. I think a much better way to start every day is with a couple chapters of Finnish. For example, I did that this morning and here I am! Blogging and taking pictures of soup haha.
I want to start focusing my job hunting efforts into one field. I've been feeling like I'm spread a bit too thin. I have my English tutoring efforts, my applications to recruiting companies, my writing [which is purely for fun right now], my university applications [which are finally more or less done! - I say this because of my one lose end in Montreal], my language school applications... etc... As you can see, this can get quite out of hand. So I've decided to make goals and stick to them and gradually work my way through my top priorities first and then tackle all the other stuff.
And now, my next goal is to eat lunch and watch an episode of House!
Hyvää päivää!
