New Year's Resolution

weekly update #19 (123)

Well... we are fasting and beraya all by ourselves now.

#1 more regular Al-Quran reciting

With the same pace, I was just done with Surah Taha and now moving onto Surah Anbiya'. Ouch, just once. Ooh, just another one as well. And another one. Ouch, no dice. Shoot, where does the dice go? No, seriously! Where is it? Did I really lost it? Maybe it was just pure laziness? Definitely that. Yeah...

#2 weekly adequate exercises

With the combination of the shutdown and the start of Ramadhan, I need to make the best use of this predicament, and I did for the past couple of days of light exercises. Whether I can keep it up is still up in the air...

With my sleeping patterns back to normal (i.e. sleeping actually at night), now I could jog in the eve of the morning around the neighborhood for a short mile. It's been three straight days now and I want to see if it will keep on going... And I couldn't keep it up with intermittent rest days throughout the week, but I think it's for the best with the morning jogs and weight reps filling up the rest of the days. Man, I miss the feeling of being drenched in sweat!

#3 more regularized Funko POP designs

From twenty to eighteen and now back up to twenty two... and now twenty three!!! Ooh, almost there... twenty five is quite the achievement for me. Okay, now I'm done! THIRTY, BABY!!! I want to stop but I guess I can't... even four less is so much already. From twenty six to to twenty six. I'm just happy being able to take a breather once in awhile. Well, I'm back to it, baby! Ooh, thirty again. Nice! How about that... THIRTY SIX!!! WOO!!! Thirty is good enough. Two less but I'm just happy I got out four pieces daily consistently. I guess twenty eight is the magic number for now... ...

#4 pray full for the whole year

I actually done a whole week's worth. Hooray! Another full week into the docket! Okay! Another one, woo! Thrice now! I finally stumbled a bit but I'm proud of myself so let's get right back up! Not perfect but definitely improving!

#5 giving back to the community

...

#6 going out of my comfort zone

From five to six to seven to.. eleven! That was unprecedented... and now it was down to eight but that's okay. I might need to resort to actually colour some of them in soon... now it's only three?! Ouch! Wait, is it only one? That can't be! Okay, okay. It is five, two better than before. Another two added to the tally! Wow, another two! Okay, slowed down a little with seven but with three coloured included, I'm happy as a clam! One less but half-half is still good in my book! WOW! Thirteen, baby! Heck yeah! That's my personal best!
