THROWBACK THURSDAY “TEN YEARS”: A DAY IN THE LIFE

Hey there!  As part of the Mini Blog Challenge hosted by Joi over at RxFitnessLady, we are stepping into our time machines and traveling back to 2003!  Today’s post is Throwback Thursday “Ten Years”: A Day in the Life.  Get excited for a day in the life of a future blogger! 🙂

So ten years ago I was 20 years old.  In college, not old enough to legally drink alcohol and I had not yet met the Hubs!  Crazy times.  To be honest, I can barely remember what a day in the life looked like back then but I’ll give it the old college try (har, har, pun intended- see yesterday’s post on humor).

So, let’s rewind 10 years (cue old school fuzzing fade with back to the future-type music and me dressed in something that is supposed to make me look younger).

8am- Alarm goes off, wake up call.  Am exhausted because was inevitably up until at least 1 am.  Shower, get dressed, eat breakfast and head off to class.

9:00am- First class of the day.  I racked my brain for an example of a class I may have been taking at this time with no luck!

10:50 am- Class is OVER!  Classes are long today because it’s a Tuesday/Thursday schedule and we only have class twice a week instead of three times, like a M/W/F class.

11am- Inevitably on to class number 2.

12:50 pm- Class 2 is OVER and I’m DONE for the day!  Yay!  Heading to D hall for lunch with friends!

1:50pm- Lunch is over and now it’s back to my apartment to study.  I am one of the lucky few to be a junior in college and living in an on-campus apartment.  I room with three seniors and compared to the dorms it feels like we have a ton of space!

2pm-5pm- Study, study, study!

5:15pm- Head to Modlin Center for dance class.  It’s Thursday so I’m probably taking modern-my least favorite.  After class we have rehearsal until 8:30pm for our show that will be in February.  This year I’m choreographing a piece and I’m performing in a number of dance pieces.

8:45pm- Back at the apartment for a quick dinner.  Probably chicken with veggies and a diet ginger ale.  Some tv.  Then more studying.  Try to get to bed no later than midnight but probably doesn’t happen!

Ok, let’s compare shall we?

6am- Alarm goes off.  It’s Thursday so I have physical therapy at 7am.  If it were any other day of the week, I would be working out in my apartment, most likely doing Turbo Fire.

7am- At physical therapy (or most days of the week/when I’m not injured-showering and getting ready for work).

8:20 am- It’s out the door headed to the subway to Grand Central and then walking to my office.

9 am- I’m at my desk eating breakfast, usually yogurt with berries or toast with almond butter.  Then it’s work, work, work until 1pm.

1pm- Lunch!  I head outside for a walk and some reading/music time.

2pm- Back at my desk for some more work!

6pm- It’s time to head home.  I’m out the door, to the subway and then home by 6:30pm

6:30 pm- Because I had PT in the morning I’m working out at night.  If I was not working out in the evening I would blog, make dinner, eat dinner and watch some tv, more blog, do a few chores, respond to blog comments, social media share, etc.

At-work

11pm- BED! 

Readers, what does your day look like?  What were you doing 10 years ago!?
