Diary (A New Arc) 25M

I just moved to a new place last week and I have to shift to new schedule and lifestyle here, I still need to work on this. My motivation to catch up with all my habits is not great, it’s hot here, studies and classes, and taking good sleep is a challenge too :sweat_smile::joy:. I can find time in evening for habits but I feel like it’ll be better to go playing or invest time in studies at that time.
Anyway I’m working on settling here, what is done is done, I need to work more hard now.

How is the weather like in Delhi? What’s the mess food quality there at Iit Delhi ?

Weather is hot, of course more hot than my place (Himachal) but it seems tolerable.
About mess food there’s some shortage of hostels here so 1 st year Mtech boys haven’t got hostels yet, they have pgs just attached to the campus, we are living here in pgs, we have been eating in local messes yet, we can avail hostel messes after 15th of August, but I reckon it’ll be good.
What about iisc?

In Bangalore, weather is pretty sexy and cool. We are wearing hoodie :rofl: right now
In night, temperature drops down to 21 ,so u can imagine

Life at IISc is pretty chilled with a lot of beautiful intelligent girls :rofl:

My seniors told me pressure starts in September

Well even 21 is hot for Himachal residents :joy:.
How can you wear a hoodie in this? Where are you from.

Ah and you are in CSE lucky boy :joy:.
Mechanical people don’t get to be among many girls but I tru my best :joy:.

Ah ok, our teaching assistant ship starts in October so it’ll get somewhat hectic after that, for now it is manageable

We didn’t have a lot of classes yet, we got one assignment which took almost entire Sunday, at most our classes are from 8am to 1 pm for now, and 8 am classes are a pain in the ass, not used to sleeping early.
Rest I’ve been finding time to play some basketball, made some friends and one good friend who lives next door.

I haven’t posted a proper journal entry here in about 2 days because I didn’t get anything done, well except some studies and playing. I need to get more serious towards studying though, went to play three days in a row and played a lot, I should invest more time in studies, I need to find some way to workout in room, I have resistance bands, but it’s hot and I don’t have a mat for working out, I’ll buy a mat tomorrow, it’ll be easier to bring myself to workout here, if not anything I can always do body weight training, haven’t been doing even that.
Also need to fix sleep. And since we only have 8am classes 3 days a week, so mind is pretty reluctant to shift the schedule to too early.
I can maybe start with sleeping between 11 and 7 which doesn’t feel that taxing, I can workout on 4 days when my classes start at 9:30 or when it’s a holiday.
Tomorrow is a holiday but not planning to workout as I am already tired from a lot of playing, I’ll do sudarshan kriya though and keep my phone on detox till evening so that I can study well.
If I need to access something study related I’ll open laptop.

Bought a new journal for planning and gratitude, wrote affirmations on initial pages, hopefully will be using that journal daily. Watching one of Hamza’s videos last night renewed my vigour. Cleaned my room in the middle of the night last night lol.
Felt a wierd anxiety in evening after napping, meditation calmed me down.
Seriously focusing on positives now :smile:.

Things sucks bro these days. But its ok if you cant. You are an IIT guy. I can assume how much work load you are having

Not too much work load, but I am not starting a challenge :sweat_smile:, here I am managing myself barely :joy:.
If you feel there’s an urgent need, you can create a challenge yourself.
