Just an Intro & a Quick Update on the Challenges

So, I've decided to make this blog to keep track of the weekly challenges that I've decided to start doing a week ago. The first one was to drink 18 cups of tea in one week. I have just completed this one and starting today (my weeks run from Wednesdays to Tuesdays) I cannot eat meat (fish included) for a week... you'll get the idea soon enough. I am always accepting challenge ideas, so please leave them in the comments if you have any (thank you in advance!) So here is a an example of what I'll be posting (copied from my Facebook where I started this challenge idea...)

(2/24-3/2)
Goal #1: drink 18 cups of tea

2/24 (7:47pm) ... first cup into the challenge!
first cup of tea 2/24 here's to weekly challenges!

2/24 (8:56pm) ... brewing my second cup currently, just found out... i don't have enough tea bags... how's it that i've already found this to be harder than i thought...? well, this is a challenge, at least now this one is a bit more challenging now :/ 

2/24 (9:07pm) ... 2nd cup! i think that's plenty tea for an hour and a half...

2/26 (2:29am) ... 2 more cups down today so that puts me at 4 cups total so far

2/26 (11:49am) ... not even noon yet and i've already got 3 cup in! PROGRESS <-- it feels good

2/27 (12:54am) ... just finished off another cup and it just started raining :] total cups so far: 8 cups still needed: 10

2/28 (11:45am) ... huge lack of tea drinking this weekend because i went home. drank one cup only. gunna have to make up for this big time. currently drinking... cup #10 (more like downing) and then moving onto cup #11 before the night is up. that leaves me 7 cups for monday and tuesday. i can do this!

Hopefully I get more interesting. I will try to do longer posts or updates that include a bit more insight than those above. And more likely daily instead. If you have any suggestions I am open to them. 

Cheers!

  2. I like that challenge. I will accept that challenge! But seeing as I've already got a list... it will have to wait a little. But I think it will be a fun one for sure. Thanks Evan!
