30 Hours of Work-Life Balance

It started chill. Had a few drinks with friends ๐Ÿป and ended the night at 12pm

And then it really startedโ€ฆ

1) 0200 – 0700: Woke up two hours later and ran 37km ๐Ÿƒ

I had to. I was preparing for the upcoming Bangkok marathon ๐Ÿ˜… As I ran endless circles in Lumphini park, it was interesting to see how a local running event had organized itself after I’d arrived and ended before I’d even finished.

Got home at 7am, showered and put on my university uniform. Btw, why don’t all universities have uniforms?

2) 0800 – 1700: 9 hours of lectures, back to back ๐Ÿ“–

I had to. Admittedly, combining quant lectures with Buddhism economics was a lot to handle. Btw, I believe meditating is possible while napping.

3) 1800 – 1900: Thai massage ๐Ÿ’†

I had to. I promised a friend I’d go. Having someone stomp my back after 37km and no sleep was surprisingly nice. Btw, I did not believe napping in this situation was possible.

4) 1930 – 2100: Family Dinner ๐Ÿฅฃ

I had to. Family were in town and I promised. Food was great.

5) 2200 – 0500: Clubbing ๐Ÿ•บ

I had to. I promised my sister I’d show her the town. Drinks and dancing on top of all the activities certified the whole day as an ultra event.

All in all, a great day to connect work, sports and family time ๐Ÿ‘
