Daily Post 0070: Back to Being Productive

Standard

Oh man. Back to being tired, mentally and physically.

I biked this morning. 10ish miles. It was a good spin class and I’m glad I went.

When my alarm went off at 7 I thought about not going, but I couldn’t go back to sleep. So instead I packed up my notebook and went to the grocery store. I came home made breakfast, put the food away and still had time to start pondering over my 30 Day Challenge assignment.

Then it was off to the gym, which rocked, then back home. I cooked my meals for this coming week. Yay for being back 100% to my routine. I completed the brainstorming for this weeks assignments.

The IF word for this week is “Strong”. I will be posting my concept drawing either tonight or tomorrow. Depends on how awake I am after this post.

It took me a while to do the post of my goals today. There’s a lot of thinking and analyzing that goes along with day 4 of the 30 Day Challenge, but I think it was time that I needed to invest. I such a clearer idea of what I should be doing and where I’m going now.

I went to the dojo for taekwondo today. Sensei Mike was running a little late but class was awesome. We ran through all of the punches, kicks, and the first form all in the same class.

I really, really need to brush up on the kicks. Though I finally know the difference between a round house and a side kick. One you load from behind, the other you load from the front.

I came home, ate, replied to an amazing post from one of the blogs I follow, showered, then went to school. Rebeca had messaged me about an issue she was having with a rig. I took a look at the file, but it was one of those things that would be easier to talk about in person.

So we made plans to meet at school at 8:30, which we did. We chatted for a little while since she had been out of town. Her family is doing well and she enjoyed her trip.

We talked about the rig, and since I still had things I wanted to get done I came upstairs to work, which is where I’m currently at.

I forgot to mention that I worked on my script a bit (less than 30 minutes) before going to the dojo. It now pulls all of the information I need from the interface. So I have all of that being stored in variables. Now it’s just tweaking the code I have to work with them.

If I weren’t so tired I would finish off the script tonight, but right now I don’t think I would code a print statement to save my life.

I began working on an animation for Tre. Not sure if I mentioned that (you would think I would remember everything I just got done reading for my weekly recap). He has a mech that he rigged that I’m going to be doing something for. As it gets done I’ll post it.

I posted my IF Challenge stuff to ConceptShare, so that’s nice and done with. I’ve also already completed the discussion post, another thing I did earlier in the day.

Oh. My instructor really liked my Path image. He said he had wished I had done a statement for the image explaining what it meant for me. So I sent him this reply.

For me the story is of the girl, walking through life and creating her reality. She is looking back, reflecting on where she has been and what she was able to create through her journey.

The ‘water’ in my life is the emotional support I get from my family and friends. My relationships and connections with others helps me grow; much the way water nurtures and sustains the earth. I wanted the river to represent that.

Without the river the land would be a barren wasteland, and without the support of the people closest to me I would not be where I am at today. They are part of the path I am on.

Maybe a little overly deep, but I extremely enjoyed this project. It was my first full digital painting in Photoshop.

I made a B even though it was late.

I think that’s about it for my day. Just finishing up with some WordPress. I finally got around to writing a Weekly Saga. And I’m done with my daily post it seems.

Now to go home and eat since I’ve been ignoring how hungry I am in favor of writing. Since I’ll be awake from the drive home and food I’ll most likely stitch and listen to my book. That will be nice since I’m supposed to do that for an hour everyday.
