Tonight Im going over to my friend Jamies apartment and we are getting like facials and make up I believe, she won some competetion, so like a specialist is coming to fix us up haha gonna be fun :P rarely do these kind of things :)

 

My day off from training yesterday was kind of bad... conclusion: I probably shouldnt take days off that often, maybe just take days of less intense workouts instead... like doing the eliptical for 1 hour makes me sweat but doesnt really make me that tired or is hard for my body, especially if I dont go that fast... obviously haha

So today I am gonna work out again, trying to figure out what Im gonna do, because its sunny out but not super warm, only 9 degrees celsius, but with the right clothes that should be warm enough. So maybe I will go for another longer run today, maybe I will make it to 10km :S hahah we will see how I feel...

 

The past weeks or months really, Ive been thinking a lot about my future.. what should I do??

One of my dreams would be to start my own company giving coaching, dietary, and lifestyle advice to other people with diabetes, and Im currently looking at the possibilities of doing so.. found an education in Stockholm that would make me a "diet and health coach" and I am also thinking about becoming a certified personal trainer. People might think that because these are my goals, Ive thrown away my college degree, which is in management, however I think I would have great use of that degree when it comes to starting my own company and maybe managing other employees. What I want to do usually changes a lot, however, this feels like something I would really be good at and enjoy doing as well.. It is really important to me that I do something that I like doing, at the same time I realize the value in just earning money to be able to do things on my free time as well ;)

 

Diabetes wise yesterday was kinda crappy.. have had a lot of highs recently, not as many lows... there is so much going on in my life right now tho, on every level, personal, school, health, training etc. This makes it difficult for me to manage my sugar as well as I would like to. I also think that my lifestyle here in the US is not necessarily as well adjusted to the life of a diebtec as my lifestyle is when I go home to Sweden. I dont know why, but it seems easier to me to destress, eat and be more healthy, and sleep more when I am home, and all those things are such important factors when trying to keep a stabile blood sugar level. For example, yesterday I did not go to bed until 1am, and the same the two nights before then.. It was not because I was out or anything, I just did not feel like going to bed earlier and was doing things like school work and searching the web and such. I still get about 8 hours of sleep, but its during the wrong hours, my mom always used to tell me that the more hours you sleep before midnight, the more rested you will feel the next day and I definetely believe that to be true... unfortunally I dont seem to get to experience that too much anymore... Its weird but I like staying up late and I like waking up early haha difficult things to combine haha

 

Got done some of my school work last night.. I procrastinate so much but when I sit down and actually do it and takes such a short time to do... Im quite the efficient person haha, although this does not always work to my advantage because sometimes I am not thorough enough. To me though, this is always a balance of prioritizing how much time you want to spend on something compared to how good you want the outcome to be, if you need be sure of a better outcome then you obviously need to put more time into it. I dont know if you get my logic, but this has always made sense to me and I seem to live my life by it a lot.. not only when it comes to academics but also to work, social life, and relationships.

 

Anyhow, thats all the pondering I have for now!
