primed today #health

good catch up with a Mexican friend - in Spanglish *haha* 😛 #social3

continued my 2017 annual review (not yet done) #naii

confession time: wrote my 7-day revision of what I got done in terms of VO biz and VO art #stolenvoice

practiced the commercial script ("All The Towers" theme park) and liked some aspects of my performance, but not everything, especially that clipping occured. Can't wait for my new mic + mixer to arrive so I can regulate the gain level better. #mictime #stolenvoice

walked 1.8km 🏃 - time: 16,75 min - average speed: 6,45 km/h - remarks: Switched from 5km to 1,8km of walking because I want to spend more time (30 minutes instead of 15 minutes) on the home bike. Used the walk to digest the surprising news and made a plan. Basically I’ll move to another place, where? I don’t know yet. - apart from that: super slow walk. #health

intense bike-training for 30 minutes (from today on I’ll do 30 min instead of 15 min because I expect that to have better effect on my legs/knees. I’ll walk 1.8km in about 20 min to compensate the bigger time on the bike, and abandon the 5 km that take around 40 minutes) - did sweat a lot on the bike but feeling great! #health

did late priming but it was good to have it done. #health

On my 4th day of the 7-day sabbatical I slept 9.5 hours instead of only 7 (I got up after 7 hours but decided to continue sleeping cos my body signalized me to) and I felt more rested, happier and had less visible dark rings under my eyes - will try to sleep more in general and see where that goes. In the past, I felt bad sleeping longer because I had less hours on the day to get things done. I'll see. #health

Installed MySQL locally (macOS), tested the SQL connection with test values, installed Sequel Pro, then enabled mod_rewrite, made .htaccess work through „AllowOverride All“ in the config and turned on SSL/HTTPS through openssl - that was all very technical and not really progress but was necessary, this guide helped me: websitebeaver.com/set-up-loca… #naii

set up a local server on macOS, turning on Apache, PHP and enabling the Sites folder. All more or less simple when it works. When it doesn’t, it takes a while to make it work 😉 #naii

long training session today in a new setup with better acoustic treatment (way better sound quality) - will try to improve it step by step #stolenvoice

15-minutes intense home-bike ride - more intensity than yesterday - legs feeling used, yes! #health

priming (today at around noon) feels good #health

continued writing My 2017 Annual Review: the role of my accountability calendar and a paper parking disc #naii

walked 5km 🏃 - time: 43,15 min - average speed: 6,95 km/h - remarks: Took it easy today - that’s why the time is sooo bad - because I heard my knee grinding/crunching which should be alerting. It’s snow outside, yep it really is. Weather really can have bad temper and good attitude or maybe it’s just the interpretation of the weather (by people) that attribute good or bad (maybe). Like money is weather itself neutral. Weather doesn’t want to harm you or please. It’s just there or it isn’t - like money. Apart from that philosophic excursion I wrote a brain dump on why an actor’s life is worth it and that vlogging (in public) is actually stage experience. #health

watched quite a lot of videos on the Canon 6D Mark II and watched parts of the Paris St. German vs Real kick #social3 (kind of)

today's mic time was only 10 minutes long because I practice late and shouting in the mic at night in a non-acoustically treated room is not a good idea if I want my neighbors to be friendly to me 😉 - so I used the rest of the time doing the course on character acting and I learned about the 7 keys to characterization #stolenvoice

the 15-minutes intense home-bike ride I did less intense today because the knee felt painful during the day from time to time #health

did late priming but I can use it for the night because the night is the longest preparation time for the day after #health
