Hi hi!! :hatching_chick: This is my first post in the community and hopefully there would be even more to come! :v: :wink: I've been eyeing this particular challenge since I first noticed it when I ed so I'm finally getting around to do it! 🤓 :sparkles:

:lemon: HUSTLE :lemon:

I have always been a born and professional procrastinator and lowkey--realized Im no longer about that anymore(hopefully). So starting right here and now that I'm going to hustle and get things done just when they getting started!(well.. maybe not immediately off the bat :relieved: ) Most especially since Ill only have a few hours left by the time I get home and sooner than later before I have to get to bed.

:lemon: PUT IN MORE EFFORT :lemon:

Younger me would normally only get things done just to get it over with that only really involved minimum trying. 🤔 These particular projects that I tend to not bother with are(surprisingly) projects that would've exercised the particular skill I have a ion for, aka drawing. I dont know why but I only ever really drew plain designs and plain figures before. So as a goal I want to try and put my best efforts in these assignments and *cough*flaunt*cough* the particular skill I should probably be showcasing. 🖍

:lemon: MAKE TIME TO STUDY :lemon:

uhh... define studying?

Tbh I only ever really studied something when there's be a quiz in the next incoming minutes when the teacher hasn't arrived yet. Same thing with--surprise, surprise!--exams. :innocent: I'm making it upon myself to actually dedicate some time, at least-30 minutes, to refresh my mind a bit on previous lessons and study what I have yet to learn and or figure out. :+1:

:lemon: LANGUAGE LEARNING :lemon:

I already have a goal to teach myself spanish and am still in the baby stages of learning it. Though now that I have transferred to a new school, I found out that we'll be having a subject that's about learning Nihongo! :dizzy_face: Guess I'll have to make room in my language notebook for the new member! :flushed: And I'll have to prioritize one over the other anyway so might as well get into it. 🤓

:lemon: ORGANIZATION :lemon:

I'm one to chuck their things in the most convenient places and assume I'll where they were until I dont. :disappointed: I'm going to have to care for my belongings more than what I normally bother and will have everything where they're supposed to be and not have to chuck, and when things do get out of hand I'm going to allow myself the time to organize everything back into place before I slip on another stray pencil. :weary:

:lemon: GET MYSELF OUT THERE :lemon:

I'm one of your local hermits who barely steps a foot outside their own home let alone participate in big school activities. Since I transferred, I found that my school is very active in competitions both in and outside campus. And I'm actually thinking of maybe ing once or twice if I think I have the potential. :wink: I also want to try and have jamming sessions with others when I do start learning on how to play drums and have a absolute great time.

:lemon: HYDRATION :lemon:

I only ever really drink anything when it's meal time and that's a grand total of three cups of water everyday which is not really ideal. Now that I bought a new water bottle, I'm going to make sure to at least hydrate myself a couple bottles empty everyday. :tropical_drink:

:lemon: MAXIMIZE THE WEEKEND :lemon:

I almost always never do anything remotely productive when there's so much time and these are practically my lazy days where I sit back and read fictions, scroll through pinterest, and watch youtube. And as the year I am now, its inevitable that we'll have to manage our time to the fullest and just hustle, hustle, hustle. I'm planning to at least have everything significant done by sunday morning and then finally give myself the remaining time left to just lie down and catch a solid wink or two. :sleeping:

:lemon: UNPLUG EARLY :lemon:

Ah, yes. Me staring at my phone reading well into the night, cacooned in thick blankets and soft pillows. My natural habitat indeed. Its an unhealthy habit of mine to stay on my phone even after past 11 pm and immediately close my eyes when the phone does die. I'll have to at least turn everything off an hour before bed and occupy myself with an actual physical book.
