“What worries you masters you.” – John Locke

Poignant, perhaps. These few days have seen me losing sleep trying to complete my assignment. I feel as though I belong in a classroom and not behind a computer. Hence why I have loved teaching all these years. The nature of the beast I suppose. As pointed out by John Locke above, my assignment is mastering me at the moment. I can’t wait until Thursday. On Thursday, I will be done with self isolation and I can go on an adventure.

I will drive south, or maybe east. With no real aim until I hit the sea. As long as I have my tent with me I can find myself a bed beneath the stars. This is what I long for and these days of being stuck inside have reminded me of this. How long until the pandemic is over do we think? 1 year, 2 years, 10 years! Who knows? The world has changed. Prior to covid, my plan was to be cycling around the world right now. We must make the best of what we have I suppose. Cycling/driving into the sunset can wait.

Accomplishments – The first draft is finished. I have never written an assignment like the one I have written now before. It is a bit of a change from studying law to studying education. The draft is done. Tomorrow, I will be able to polish it up and submit it.

What I could have done better – Maybe lost of the essay. My brain is fried now so I am not sure how much more I will do today.

Health – I exercised yesterday. I plan on exercising today too(I mean cardio, not weights). It’s been a while since I have done any cardio and I want to get into the swing of it again. A daily routine for cardio is a must.

Gratitude – Healthy, I am thankful that I am healthy. Albeit discontented for being stuck inside.
