My Weekly Schedule
Following up from my writing aspirations that I wrote about for this year
Following on from my post about the 24 writing goals I have for this year. Some of the goals I had in mind would be hard to accomplish without a proper timetable of what I have planned as well as my life schedule. I think most of my writing will be done at weekends and late evenings after work and classes.
Monday
Waking up between 6AM to 8AM
Work: 10AM till 6PM
Body Pump: 7PM till 8PM
Aqua Fit: 8.15PM till 9PM
Writing: 10PM till I fall asleep.
I love the music that gets played in the body pump class. It's fun how varied it is with the steps, weights and the mats. Aqua Fit is a nice way to cool off the sweat from body bump as well as working out at the same time.
Tuesday
Waking up between 6AM to 8AM
Work: 10AM till 6PM
Yoga: 7PM till 8PM
Writing: 10PM till I fall asleep.
I sometimes do a bit of grocery shopping before my class starts to kill some time. I don't know if this is always a good idea though, especially when I am hungry. There are several supermarkets between my workplace and my gym, and the one near my gym is the cheapest one. Sometimes they do some good discounts in all three of them, and I've been able to whip up a meal out of the yellow labelled food.
Wednesday
Waking up between 6AM to 8.30AM
Spinning Class (Indoor Cycling) - 9.15AM till 10AM
Work: 11AM till 7PM
Writing: 10PM till I fall asleep.
I really had fun with the first spinning class I did this year. I bumped into someone I was good friends with at school and it was nice to see her. I hope to see her again this upcoming Wednesday. I didn't think I would be able to cope with the spinning class, but I proved myself wrong.
Thursday
Waking up between 6AM till 6:30AM
Aqua Fit - 7:30AM till 8.15AM
Work - 10am till 6PM
Writing Group - 6:30PM to 9.15PM or Yoga Class - 8PM till 9PM
Writing: 10PM till I fall asleep.
If I don't have the writing group on Thursday night, I do the yoga class in the evening. Thursdays tend to be the most relaxing day of the working week for me because of this. In the writing group, it is mainly reading, chatting, tea and biscuits.
Friday
Waking up between 6AM till 6:30AM
Aqua Fit - 7:30Am till 8.15AM
Aerobics - 9.15AM till 10.10 AM
Work - 11Am till 7PM
Writing: 10PM till I fall asleep.
Yay for Friday! I will be glad to be home after the classes and work. I am new to aerobics, but I found them a lot of fun and everyone in the class are so supportive. I've loved coming on a lot of the classes. Aqua fit is a lot of fun and so is this one. I think I will start looking forward to Fridays even more because of them. The classes are becomming more popular to the point I need to book a week in advance to gaurentee a place. I almost missed out because the classes got full, but was able to get in last minute because of cancellations.
Weekends
Free to do whatever I want. I also do a lot of my meal prepping for my lunch boxes at work on Saturday and Sunday so it saves me time. The spare time between the classes and my break times at work will be when I try to do more writing and reading. I think having a super intensive weekday makes me appreciate the weekends and days off even more.

A Polar bear in Birmingham
I’ve been here, there and everywhere. Even though I feel like I’ve been inactive lately, I’ve been having that urge to write some poetry and get really creative. I had a few moments when I have been really up and then really down and on a few occasions I had been so tired that I forgot to eat my dinner. I was looking into intermediate fasting, but my head got so conflicted. My head was telling me to fast. My body was telling me to eat. My heart was telling me to have a hot chocolate and bath, then go to bed. I ended up doing all of them in the end.

Letter to My Childhood Self
Dear little one, I have so much to say to you that I don’t know where to begin. Much was left unsaid. Too much. So many thoughts, feelings, and emotions never found a voice; were never expressed — not in words, not in laughter, not in tears, nor in any other form. You always kept them to yourself, dear one. You never gave them a face, a name. There they stayed with you, you and you alone.

Wow... you sure plan to pack a lot into your week! Great job.
Loving this idea - I make the list and then promptly lose it!
This is a great list! I love having a schedule for my days.
I love your list schedule 🥳🥰I wish I had this when I was young. It was scattered all over the place. I hang out with my friends over the weekend, I did not have writing schedule but a ton of reading time in between work, walking my dog on the canal and play .
