So, I haven't written anything for the weeknotes, I'll explain why.
I had a pretty boring January, because in essence all of my time was spent doing coursework for the M05. I did a few other things, like going to the opera, etc. but largely had a boring month.
I went on holiday at the beginning of Feb, and then ... not really sure all what I did. Some social events, music etc.
The main thing is that this month I joined another mandolin group. They meet weekly, and it gives me a lot more to practice but also more chance. I enjoy it and the group is very nice.
There will be a performance, too, later in the year, which gives me a good motivation to practise.
It's only been the first bit of March so far so not a lot to say.
Too fast. I don't know why and I don't really like it.
Because the laptop I write on has had a broken screen. It's still sort of broken, but it's got a temporary bit of life so I can write this at least. I need to find some time to take it to somebody to fix, or move everything off the laptop (code etc. for the website. The latter is better, probably.)
Soon I think I will bite the bullet and get a new laptop (or computer), as this one is very old and was only cheap anyways.
I've decided this month I will give up the allotment, and leave it fully to my parents who enjoy going there. This will save me a lot of time and relieve some struggle from my plate.
The focus for me is mandolin and health, then. I want to practice mandolin as much as possible, and begin going to the gym regularly, cooking more healthy food, losing weight and gaining muscle, etc. So essentially my plan is to lower the amount of things that I do, to hopefully make some good progress in the two main pursuits.
I also need to get my M05 insurance law finished soon and once that is done I will not study any more this year, or maybe even next year.
I want to basically do less but spend more time on what I will do. I want fewer hobbies.
I will probably not write the blog again for a little bit, but I will try and restart it a little bit. I really just need to get a proper computer where I can actually write on. Of course, I also want to use the computer less anyways.
Anyways, the website might be a little dead for a bit.
