2024/09/04: July

 

July used to be a heck of a busy month

before Covid

but was usually quite motivated

because i wanted to see sales

to cover my travel

usually back-to-back

during this period of the year

*

anyway things took a change

given the unpredictability

over the last 12 months

and I no longer travel

except for short staycation

to watch live shows in the city

*

July started off slow

but landed myself in a

hectic work-sleep cycle

towards the end of the month

*

but look there was the Olympics on TV

which kinda of help to boost productivity

as i can’t wait to finish work earlier

so that I can watch live matches

*

that’s super rare for someone

who doesn’t watch sports

on a seasonal basis

*

but sadly

I didn’t actually wake up to watch

any of the track event I bookmarked

not possible

given the earliest was usually 1:45 am

and the finale at 3:45 am

*

by the way

I haven’t even finish the Sprint docuseries on Netflix

and season 2 is already on the way

*

and the Olympics lasted until mid-Aug

that felt super fast, like a few blinks of eye

and looking back

I can’t quite remember anything memorable

In my everyday life

except the winning moments witnessed on TV

*

it took the athletes and their teams a long time

to make it there

and even better to the podium

so…

“giving myself a pat on the shoulder”

*
