My rough drafts of anything are miserable. and, despite feeling like a unique and beautiful snowflake melting in the oppressive Florida sun, I am not all one.
If I write ten words, expect 5 errors, at least.
This does not behoove well for this project. After all, a Grad student should be able to type, yes?
The expectation I have is that as I type more, I shall shake this monkey off my back.
So, the first day of a new project. No one is watching me yet, so I can't be shamed into success. But the premises of this blog is simple:
Can one get the equivalent of a college masters education without spending a dime? Can one also, by spending very little money lose 50 lbs?
Too complicated, you ask? Why not have a blog dedicated to just one thing?
That's why it's called What's He Building In There? The "In There" implies inside me, what changes are going on to build a strong mind and a stronger body?
I guess some basic premises are in order:
I can spend any amount of time working on projects related to this, but I must post what I have done that day on this website.
I am not allowed to spend more than 100 dollars a week with a coffee budget of about 20 dollars, and a food budget somewhere around 50 dollars. Less is preferable. Any money donated to this cause can also be spent. All money must be accounted for.
I think that's it for today. We will be taking baseline measurements, but some won't be very accurate because of the expense of the tests. We will also be outline what a Graduate degree means in the next day.
So as today is not merely an announcement of intention, here is today's schedule:
6:30 pm until 7:33pm: Set up this blog. (Free)
7:33 to 6:30 pm: Download Russian Podcasts and a the Book: Apologies of Socrates (Free)
now I am off to Starbucks to organize my thoughts. I tend to use notebooks to do this.
OK, so I didn't quite get to Starbucks. I got to Walmart for some supplies
I organized some of my metrics.
