My weeknotes for the week 2025-09-22 to 2025-09-28.

Unfortunately, I've not done a very good job of taking notes for this week, and I also have written these weeknotes a solid week late. As such, I'm not really in a good shape to actually say how I did.

Monday

No notes!

Tuesday

No notes!

Wednesday

I went to the allotment in the evening, and planted a few daffodil and hyacinth bulbs.

Thursday

The plan in the evening was to go to the Guildhall, however instead we went for drinks at lunch (I had a very busy workday which was made difficult by the two-and-a-half hour boozy lunch) and then afterwards we went to a lawyer's event, and then around London for drinks.

Friday

I went to a dating event, called Haystack Dating which was in Bermondsey. It was decent fun, and I met a good few people, but nobody I was interested in as per usual...

I am really not sure on what the issue is with all this. Not that it is necessarily even an issue per se, only I am never really attracted to anybody. It's odd, albeit of course temporary... One of those joyful problems of youth.

Saturday

So, uhm, I may have an alcohol problem...

There was my niece's birthday party during the day which was fine. In the evening I went out for a nighttime rave with a friend. It was actually a very small almost nightclub kind of vibe. Very enjoyable. He found a girl he was interested in, but didn't make the move...

Sunday

I think I mostly took it slow, recovering a little, having lunch at a cafe, etc.

Stats

Screentime

... Apparently my usage tracker doesn't go back further than a week so I actually can't say. I don't think it was a significant improvement though.

Steps

103k steps! Quite good. The majority of these were Sunday (or very late Saturday night, depending on how you define it) with 33k steps. This equates to around 51km and 3200 kcal.

Reading

Still reading The Gift.

M05 study update

For the third week in a row, I have not studied at all.

Languages

Italian

For the third week in a row no progress - still 53 pages in.

German

See above.

Finnish

I'm going to drop this section as I don't think I will pursue Finnish, I doubt I will have time.

Music

Mandolin

I've been practising the prelude to the first Cello suite, which has been quite fun. Also, I've signed up to go to Raffaele La Ragione's workshop in October. We will be playing Danses bijoux.

Violin

I have decided to drop violin, and the lessons, until the new year. It's too busy otherwise, and almost all of my Saturday's are booked in with something now.

Health

Exercise

I didn't go to the gym once.

Weight and diet

I didn't track my calories or protein very well this week, so I can't give numbers. It probably wasn't incredibly this week either, as I drank a lot of alcohol.
