I’ve been feeling uninspired lately. I tend to think that it has to do with my return to work, 6 a.m. wake up calls, and pizza withdrawal.
Work has been kicking my butt, y’all. I didn’t really think I was jet-lagged until this weekend, when even the thought of the physical exertion needed to take my clothes to the laundromat 50 metres from my apartment gave me the heebee-jeebies.
Last week had me get off to a rough start (on the first day of school, I managed to write on the whiteboard in permanent marker… then proceeded to lose my cell phone on the same day, as I left it in the back of a taxi).
What’s more, a full teaching load this year and new technology to master at work is making me feel sad, as are waking up to grey Hong Kong skies that threaten (and deliver) torrential rainpour. Strong, wind-proof umbrella required.
On a positive note, I have found an apartment (many thanks to a friend of mine here who recently vacated her apartment and forwarded her landlord’s info, resulting in my new crash pad). I’ve finally gotten the internet in my apartment back, so I’m writing this post from my bed (please note that it is 6 p.m. on a Tuesday- I’m dog tired). I’ve also signed up for a 10K run here in Hong Kong (taking place in November). I’ve caught up with good friends and briefly graced the Hong Kong night scene with my presence and torn up the dancefloor this past weekend.
So life is kinda ok at the moment, though I’d must prefer to be gallavanting around Europe as I did for the last two months!

Oh, I would rather be gallavanting anywhere than working also. Good to hear you are finally settled and in a good apartment. Right now, the skies are grey on this end also so don't feel too bad.
I gotta say that your lack of motivation reminds me of returning home from Germany….talk about dread. I was dragging my butt around for weeks and week. At least you have the 10k to look forward to.
Thanks for the kind words, Rhona. Day by day I am feeling more positive, but as you say, it is difficult to get back into the grind when you've been on vacay!
That’s an awesome point
This is some useful stuff. It took me a while to unearth this web page but it was worth the time. I noticed this website was hidden in google and not the first spot. This site has a lot of good quality stuff and it does not deserve to be burried in the searches like that. By the way I am going to add this weblog to my favorites.
Greetings! Very helpful advice in this particular post!
It’s the little changes which will make the most significant changes.
Thanks a lot for sharing!
Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. However
think of if you added some great photos or videos to
give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and videos, this
site could undeniably be one of the best in its field.
Great blog!
Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic but I was
wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers
and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic
if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
No matter if some one searches for his essential thing,
therefore he/she desires to be available that in detail,
so that thing is maintained over here.
naturally like your website but you need to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts.
Many of them are rife with spelling issues and
I to find it very troublesome to inform the reality then again I’ll
surely come again again.
Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d
figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or
maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa?
My blog covers a lot of the same subjects as yours and
I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested feel free
to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!
Fantastic blog by the way!
Thank you, I’ve recently been looking for
information approximately this topic for a long time and yours is the greatest I’ve came upon so far.
But, what about the conclusion? Are you sure in regards
to the source?

I really appreciate individuals like you! Take care!!

posts. Any way I’ll be subscribing to your feeds and even I achievement you access consistently
rapidly.
Hi great website! Does running a blog like this take a
large amount of work? I’ve virtually no understanding of programming
however I had been hoping to start my own blog in the near future.
Anyhow, if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog owners please share.
I understand this is off topic nevertheless I simply wanted to ask.

Fastidious replies in return of this difficulty with solid arguments and describing the whole thing on the topic of that.|
For most up-to-date news you have to pay a quick visit internet and on world-wide-web I found this
site as a best web site for newest updates.
It’s really very complicated in this full of activity life to listen news on Television, therefore I only use the web for that purpose, and obtain the most
up-to-date news.
Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive
a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now
broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic
but I had to share it with someone!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup?
I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty
penny? I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100%
certain. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kudos
Right away I am going to do my breakfast, later than having my
breakfast coming over again to read more news.
Whoa! This blog looks just like my old one! It’s on a completely different topic but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Great choice of colors!
This blog was… how do you say it? Relevant!! Finally I have found something that helped me.
Thanks a lot!
Hello, this weekend is fastidious in support of me, for the reason that this point in time i
am reading this fantastic educational post here at my house.
Thanks to my father who informed me concerning this blog, this blog is in fact awesome.
Hello! Would you mind if I share your blog with my zynga
group? There’s a lot of folks that I think would really appreciate your content.
Please let me know. Thanks
Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download
it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog
jump out. Please let me know where you got your theme.
Bless you
I’m not sure exactly why but this web site is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I’ll check back later on and see if the problem still exists.
I have been browsing online more than three hours today,
yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will
be a lot more useful than ever before.
Wow that was unusual. I just wrote an very long comment but
after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all
that over again. Anyway, just wanted to say superb blog!
Good post. I’m facing many of these issues as well..
Hi would you mind letting me know which web host you’re working with?
I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers
and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
Can you suggest a good hosting provider at a reasonable
price? Thank you, I appreciate it!
My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net
from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because
of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using
WordPress on several websites for about a year and am
nervous about switching to another platform. I have heard
great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I
can import all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks for one’s marvelous posting! I definitely enjoyed reading it, you happen to
be a great author.I will be sure to bookmark your blog and definitely
will come back sometime soon. I want to encourage one
to continue your great work, have a nice weekend!
I visited many web pages however the audio quality for audio songs existing at
this web page is really excellent.
Asking questions are genuinely nice thing if you
are not understanding anything completely, except this article gives nice understanding
yet.
I have been browsing online more than three hours nowadays, yet I by no means found any
attention-grabbing article like yours. It is beautiful value sufficient for me.
Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made
excellent content as you probably did, the internet can be a lot more helpful than ever before.
That’s an awesome point
