Week in review: 26 October-1 November

This week I wanted to focus on writing, particularly focusing on preparing an article draft for submission.  I did work on this manuscript and I also worked on the required figures and gathering necessary data to be included in the paper.  Additionally I worked on some "side projects" and even took a day off.  Humm, sounds like I've had a well rounded week.  Fair enough, progress has been made, but I am not happy with the current pace.  Outside of work (and nearly outside the bounds of this blog) I've been trying to live a more "rounded" life, you know the eating, resting, exercising kind of stuff.  Well it turns out these things take up quite a bit of time and can really cut into a long workday.  In this case I need to up my intensity when I am at work.  Time is ticking away and I have projects I want to do.  With writing a thesis and a few journal articles, there's not much time left for anything else.  I need to make the most out of the time I do have left.

On another note, today's post marks the 100th entry so far into this blog.  An accomplishment based upon my journalling endeavours in the past.  I won't try to say anything profound or insightful, other than to say I've enjoyed the process of chronicling my work and I do think it's been a useful exercise to organise my thoughts and focus on my priorities.
