/ TRANSITION
I am feeling a little sad because I will be on the night shift starting tomorrow, leaving behind most of my favorite teammates in the morning shift. I feel kinda glad because this means bigger money come payday (because of the night differential pay), but the idea of not being with Mayie, Marius, Erwin and Scmell makes me sick. Somehow, I have learned to like these people. On a brighter side, I still have Leng and Ethel to keep me company. And there is also Joel. Oh well, this is how I would usually respond to changes, that even with the slightest movement, I would end up heartbroken and strucked, especially when the change means not seeing people that you have become comfortable with.
I am a little worried on how my current "okay" state of sanity could possibly swing next month, when I will be awake in the evening. I know for a fact that being on the morning shift for the last couple of months has helped me with my current state of being, which I can call more healthy, because I have been able to get good night sleep.
I am anticipating new breakouts and other lack-of-sleep side effects to come this month.
I also noticed that I have tendencies of gaining weight when I am on night shift. Primarily because I eat more when I am awake in the evening. And, when I am at home in the morning, I tend to eat an extra meal because of the real-life lunch time. All in all, my big meals would be: (1) breakfast (real time supper) before work, (2) office lunch at around 12MN or 1AM, (3) supper(breakfast in real life) in the house before sleeping, and then (4) house lunch at around 12 to 1 PM (sorry if you get lost in the above topic. Even me and my stomach ofeten get confused with my meal times).
Not to add the two small office breaks, and my occasional (but becoming habitual) pre shift fast food tripping. All in all, I am estimating that I am getting at least 7 meals altogether in a day for the month of February.
I am just hoping and keeping my fingers crossed right now, because what I worry most is the thing that I mentioned in the 2nd paragraph.
Gameplan from Next Week on:
1. Practice to sleep well in the morning. Get at least 6 to 8 hours of sleep because this will what keep me sane
2. Eat Healthy. I will do my best to cut fatty foods, soft drinks and coffee.
3. Focus on Skin Care. This, I can say, is my only vanity. So since I will finally get the chance to put on all the creams and moisturizers at home, there is no reason why I don't think I cannot make this happen.
4. Exercise. 3 Sets of push up a day, 20 reps per set (see if I can still add more set/s). 50 crunches. Let us see what else I can add to this routine. Remember Sam, this should be done, everyday!!! ( I am looking into the possibility of grabbing the 30%discount on gym membership in town)
5. Be punctual and practice time management. This is to avoid my Dad shouting at me because of my slow movement before leaving for work.
As what the wise once said "Discipline is a Virtue". Well, since I consider this transition a fairly good reason to start out a new routine, considering putting discipline in the equation is not really a bad idea. Hopefully, this will work.
