Personal Goals- August 2008

It's the eighth month of the year already!

1) Learn to cook
I'm trying to have better diets lately. Lesser outside food which means I need to cook more often. Cooking is totally fun to me, unfortunately I don't have many opportunities to cook. Simply because I have a very good cook at home, my daddy. My mum can cook very well either. I'd like to master most of the dishes before I get marry. Too soon to think of? *giggles*

2) Improve My Fitness.

I'm swimming twice a week.
Climbing once a week.
And running 3 times a week.

I FEEL SO GOOD.

Hopefully I'll be committing to doing it more often as well as running every morning, swimming 3 times and climbing 2 times a week, soon.

3) Snack Properly!
All these exercise really make me HUNGRY! And I've been snacking like crazy! Sometimes I'm so hungry that I don't care what I eat - because I NEED FOOD NOW!! So I've been trying to eat proper healthy snacks at set times. Which is tricky, because I'm quite particular with my snacks. Thanks to mum who bought me some real delicious snacks on the other day. Sea weed crackers, dried apricots & dried apples, pistachios.. *lovely*

Does anyone have any better snacking suggestions?

4) Get more sleep
For the last few weeks, I've been getting to bed almost by 2~4am and get up by 8am. Trying my best to get to bed earlier.

5) PLAY with my dogs
I know this sounds a bit weird. But one of the most joyful moments are playing and running with dogs. Yet most days I am so absorbed with doing errands and running my business, that I forget to stop and have fun with my doggies. So I’m determined to enjoy more with my love pets while they're still along my side.

This month I need to focus on few things :

~TO RELAX. I have been very tense these last few weeks. I have got a lot on my plate. Can’t seem to wade through the to-do’s in a graceful manner.

I might getting all stressed out about trying NOT to be stressed!

~I have to learn the art of prioritizing.

~The student's examinations were just over. And now we are in the midst of preparing the year end annual concert.

Hmmm....what is your goal for this month?
