Keeping my Reading Schedule While Working from Home

Hello and welcome follow readers of all books!

 To start off, I am thankful to still have my job during this time. I would definitely be in a bad position if I didn't have it. However, adjusting from traveling to the office by public transit (1.5 to 2 hours one way) is difficult. I ended up going from waking up at 6AM to waking up at 8AM, leaving me with a little less than an hour to clock in for work. The major change was that I traded my transit travel reading time for sleep!

Waking up late pushed my reading time out of schedule completely! I had not realized this until I started decluttering my bookshelves. I have a pile of books I started earlier this year before lockdown that I didn't finish. Now in hope that I can make a bit more room in the office I am trying to get back into reading at my usual time from 6:45AM to 8:30AM.

The funny thing is I actually sleep about eight hours naturally so it made sense why I used to go to bed at 10PM to wake up at 6AM. While I been working at home these past months I went to bed at midnight and woke up at 8AM.

Thus in order to get my reading time back, I had to force myself to go to sleep at 10PM. This is hard since I stream on Twitch late in the day and I play my mobile games before going to sleep. But it is worth getting up with the sun while there are peace and quiet to sit with a nice glow of a candle and a warm cup of coffee.



I now hope to keep on schedule after almost six months of going to sleep late. I have been doing good to the point I am almost done with my first book! Sometimes it is best to try to keep things the way they were! 

Let me know what books you are reading! I will update the page to include a list of what I am currently reading now.

Looking back at the summers

HEY THERE~~
Been a week or a few days since I last blogged, so yea. Hi people that read this.
Since another summer is passing by and I still feel like I did nothing at all, I have been thinking about the Summers that I can actually remember. They all have no thing in common. I never really had a full vacation!
Now when I mean vacation I mean going to The Bahamas or some place getting nothing but a tan and fancy dinners. My summers consist of doing extra school work and or working at camp or being in Summer camp and getting arts and crafts and exercise. I know there are probably people thinking that it is good to keep yourself busy, but not against your will. I mean if I didn't have to do something all summer I would have cleaned my whole apartment, learned ten songs in the guitar and still play at least a game a day on League. I would be able to get so much done.
Any who since I only have a few days to actually enjoy my little tiny of Summer I have been trying  to make the most of it. So today I went to Barnes and Nobles out of boredom and I need the walk anyway and took note of the anime magazines I must get and all the volumes I must buy plus the BandN card so I get percentages off and blah. If I had a job I still like the first thing I would get is a credit card and a Band N card cause I want manga. I mean come on, if I continue to study for the rest of my life I should at least get the freedom to buy books.
So much work, not enough freedom
