Subcriber can not be reached

Through an act of supreme sabaw-ness, uber stupidity, and sheer laziness I went into cellphone silence (something like radio silence..) since Wednesday night, Sep-17 til this morning, Sep-21.

I sorta left my phone in my brother's car thinking I can get it the next morning, but low and behold my brother left with his car early next morning for an out of town business trip bringing with him my cellphone. damn..

anyway, for those who texted me anything important, please text it to me again
And for those who texted me to drop a line, i'll see you around i guess, haha!

peace out!

30 days drinking nothing but water

I've just gone through 30 days of drinking nothing but water, no soda, no juice, no alcohol, just plain and simple H2O.

After reading a post in the simple dollar about how Trent decided to go through a year not buying a book, I was thinking if I could do something similar. And after finishing a bottle of stella artois I decided to give up alcohol for 30 days (well I didn't think I'd last if I decided to skip on beer for a year, hehe). While I was on that particular train of thought, I might as well leave out soda and juice so that just left me with water.

Why?
I entered myself into this challenge to test my willpower and to come up with a little savings to make up for the excessive and unnecessary spending in July and in the start of August.

Was the experience worth it?
Well, yeah I was able to save up and spend on necessities that got compromised because of my excessive spending.

And yup, my willpower got tested. During the weekends at my grandparents' place, where everyone there drank soda, I nursed my water bottle. During those times when my friends and I meet up and they start drinking beer or what-have-you, I stuck it out with my glass of water. It was hard when there's a constant nag whispering in my ear that 'one bottle of beer would be ok tonight and i can always go back to water therapy in the next day'. Sure it may sound stupid that I actually put myself in the spot to get tempted, but i thought it useless if I couldn't put something against my willpower to test it.

Also the experience taught me the value of being mindful of my goals, no matter have trivial they may seem. If your goals are constantly in the forefront of your thoughts the only thing that will stop you from achieving it is yourself.

What's next?
It must be something that isn't detrimental to my health.
It must entail that I give up something that I would miss.
It must be a challenge that I would benefit from.
I was thinking about going vegan for 30 days (no chicken, beef, pork, not even fish)
Or I was thinking of cutting back on smoking to the point of actually kicking the habit.

Any suggestions for what I should do in the next 30 days? Please share them in the comments! Thanks!
