Eat, Sleep, Rest, Repeat


Last summer, when the girls dragged me out to Ibiza for what turned out to be a really rather amazing weekend of non-stop partying (despite the fact I was massively dreading it), there was a song kicking around that set the tone for our brief trip. “Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat” became the mantra that we lived our sunshine drenched lives to for four brief but brilliant days.
            I think it’s fair to say that currently, following 5 months of eating anything and everything that people have put in front of me (including organ soup) and a trip home that was full to the brim with excess I’ve had to adopt a slightly different approach to life this week. “Eat Veggies, Sleep Early, Do Pre-Work Exercise, Work Until Brain is Frazzled, Sleep, Repeat” doesn’t have quite the same edge to it, but it’s been an entirely necessary approach to my life, and one that I really need to keep up for quite a bit longer.
            There’s going to be a brief hiccup to my plans while Debbie is out here for almost two weeks (starting this Friday evening) but I feel a lot better for having made a start on the good behaviour. Plus, now that I've made a start, I am sure that it's going to be a lot easier to stick to. Now I just need to book my tennis lessons and find somewhere to do open water swimming (away from the tankers and ships that line the coast of Singapore) and I will be on a roll!
