August!!!

So it's my birthday month already!
And time is flying by so fast- so fast! I am not scared, I am actually excited.

Want to know why?


Today marks the beginning of my Twenty-Six Days of Extraordinary! Or my way of making the last 26 days of my being a certain age extraordinary and memorable (22 in this year's case)

I would love it if everyone would join me, or suggest things to do. Or just share the inspiring vibe of "extraordinariness", you know?

Day 1:

  • I paid my gym subscription and after almost a year, I worked out! Can you tell I am high on endorphins? Lots of exclamation marks and positivity and aaaaah! I LOVE IT!
  • If you know me, you know I have a few unhealthy habits that I hate to admit, among which is that I drink too much coffee- I am usually the one who would lead a healthy lifestyle...so today marks my going back to that.
  • Working out. 2 cups of coffee a day. Fewer carbs, and so on. Suggestions?
I will randomly decide on something for tomorrow (I have nothing in mind, do you?) And I will let you know about it.

PS Liz, thank you for all the Paris inspiration, I think it's all finally materializing!

I need to decrease my coffee intake as well! I have read more than once that it is good to limit your caffeine consumption after 2 in the afternoon...this is something that I would like to try out! Oddly enough, I get headaches a lot (which makes me sad) and I think it is because my caffeine levels are higher than usual. I usually go on three-day coffee breaks (which are excruciating!) to 'cleanse' my body...if you're willing to do it I recommend it! It is difficult, though!

Congrats on it being your birthday month! :) Yay for August!

How about creating a small time capsule? Try and find things/objects that have made this year of your life significant, write on pieces of paper events or discoveries that have made a good & positive difference to you during this year of your life, put it all in a box and keep it for years to come :)

Someone seems to be a happy girl today ~wink
So much positivity!LOVE IT! Hope I will be inspired to stop procrastinating and be more productive too :)
What about not using any technologies for a day or two? No PC, no internet, no cell phone, etc...I also play on doing this in August ;)
