The iPad has Multiple Functions

Look what J found on twitter! Who says an iPad is just for browsing and reading?. Clearly, you can where it too! I love my iPad and I like new fashion, but I think I will pass on this one.

Are you Getting Enough Sleep?

The first chapter was on sleep. I know I don't get enough sleep, but I also learned that you should limit your naps to an hour. I also learned that lack of sleep increases a stress hormone that is linked to obesity. Now, that is something that I absolutely do not want more of. I need to get up and go to sleep everyday at the same time and make sure I get at least seven hours. I am going to try to sleep at 11 and get up at 6:30. I originally thought I would work out in the morning, but right now, I think I will do it after work until I get on a better schedule. I am actually going to try to start this schedule today and use it over the weekend. What is your sleep schedule like?

So, I did not blog about the book yesterday. However, I did start it yesterday. The plan was to blog, but I was so exhausted... I chose to sleep. Yesterday I needed to figure out my Energy Quotient (EQ). I scored a 51%, while the average for women was 61%. I really need to get my energy quotient up. I am hoping that I can feel the results of this book very soon. Are you exhausted? How do you beat your exhaustion.

I am hoping to get my dissertation proposal from my advisor today. We have a meeting this evening and I am very anxious. I'm not really nervous, but I am just ready to get the feedback. Wish me luck...

CONFESSION: Exhaustion not cured

So, as you probably guessed from my absence, I have not started reading The Exhaustion Cure and I am still not cured. I have a lot going on, but that is no excuse. I have made times for a birthday dinner, a night out, and plenty other things I am sure. I am really trying to push myself to be the best I can be and I know I can't be that if I am not charged and fueled the way I should be. What do you do when you feel stuck or to motivate yourself. I am promising to blog about this tomorrow. This will give me some accountability and if I don't do what I am supposed to. I will have to tell you all about it. Here we go...

Drama Everywhere

Here's a picture of the Taiwanese legislators that I came across. The Democratic Progressive Party and the Nationalist Party ended up in a brawl during a session at the Legislative Yuan. Unfortunately, it seems like people with differing opinions (especially political) struggle to get along everywhere. I have really tried to respect others' opinions, but I realize that when I am emotional and/or invested in a topic, that can be hard. How do you negotiate conversations with people who have opinions you disagree with?
