pre-season prepping

updates:

first of all, it's three days until September, or when Clinton comes back. there are a few housekeepings to do before everything begins. Let's start with me.

  1. take a shower tomorrow at 6am, and start cleaning. I need a good environment to work on things. this year I intend to go back to Langara whist still competing in figure skating. So I need everything and everything that belong to me to be organized to either purge, store or keep.
    • let's start with the bathroom and the hallways. air out my room, turn the fan on in my bathroom and start clearing out things that I need or don't need and then organizing them into baskets. then start cleaning the area. start with top to bottom area (first part being the table/sink surface, then drawers and cupboards, then the toilet, then the shower/bath area, then the laundry cupboard area, then lastly, the floor).
    • after cleaning up the bathroom, comes the bottom floor hallway. by then it must be at least 8 so dad must be awake so I can vacuum the hallway and work my way up the family room where my old design school stuff still exist.
    • afterwards, comes the kitchen. the over-due stuff really needs to go.
    • then finally my room. I think by then I know what to do. laundry, store the sewing machines, re-organize the storage area above my hanger, vacuum my room.
    .
  2. after that, head off to work at 1, buy stuff for spa day, go home, spa, yoga, sleep. for the spa:
    • wash face with the samples, steam face with toner tab, keep that for toner, facial. do hair mask, step into the bubble bath, shave, dry off skin, apply body scrub, rinse, moisturise whole body, massage face with coconut oil, moisturize face, add serum. use massage bar all over body, moisturise hair, get hot towel and wrap hair. do this once every so often. 
  3. next day, begin training. this is a long term commitment, therefore, this comes before everything else, including Clinton, so
    • first, train every morning 6-9am. after I cleanse my face, brushed my teeth, grab a snack, I head off to the gym for a hardcore three hour, then I work, then I skate.
    • the training is three hours, seven days a week, with Saturday and Sunday starting at 8am. Saturday and Sundays are days that are "free" which dating or working, or studying or researching is allowed, no skating related things. it's also the day where the training becomes less intense.
  4. it's also ideal to send out a whole bunch of revised resumes to a whole bunch of perspective employers so do that on the last day of August.
