Day 15: What's Next?
It feels like every time I finish one thing, I'm asking myself what the next thing is. And it's tiring, sometimes I don't want a next thing. Some days I just want to laze around, relax and enjoy whatever pleasures I have. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be a luxury I have at the moment. But don't worry, it's only a few more weeks before I'm free. Free from work, free from school. Free from most of my responsibilities. For now though I really have to lock in. Next week is my powerlifting competition, I can't fall behind my program anymore. But I wonder, where's the joy I used to get from these things, from working out, from blogging? I guess it's expected, that the longer I do something the less joy I get from it as the novelty wears off and it becomes more of a responsibility. Maybe what I'm looking for is simply a break from everything, from this life, from myself. But since that's not possible without the use of illicit drugs, I might as well keep pushing through until I have the time to laze around.
So, what's next?
There is a lot coming up in the next few weeks. For one, the powerlifting competition is happening this Saturday, that will be fun. Then there's an assignment and a project both due on April 1st. That won't be fun at all. Then there's a weekly pottery class I signed up for, starting next week; I'm looking forward to that. And finally the final exams for my classes and preparing to move out of my apartment. It sounds overwhelming when writing it all out. But I just have to take it on one by one, step by step. For today, the next step is to complete my gym workout. Then tomorrow and probably for most of the week, I'll work on my assignment and project and see where we go from there. Let's hope my competition goes well as well. Wishing good luck to you, future Pirooz!
