BLOG - My Typical Schedule (These Days)

So... I want to blog more. I've been feeling this for a long, long time. So I'm going to try harder. That could mean there could be more irrelevant blogs... so please only check out what interests you. :)

I'm going to try blogging shorter entries, though reviews could still be very lengthy. They'll be whatever length they need to be.

Okay. Now to the actual blog, hahaha.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since working from home due to the pandemic, my schedule / routine has changed in big and subtle ways. The biggest change was eliminating the commuting time to and from work, which allowed me to wake up just a bit later (yayyy). Subtle changes would involve checking my personal e-mail, Facebook, doing any online ordering. If you're wondering why working from home resulted in those subtle changes, it's because of my set up at home...

In my room, I have only one desk. And on that desk, there is my home computer, my work computer, one mouse, one keyboard, and two monitors (one monitor is set up vertically due to lack of space). Both home and work computers are hooked up to the monitors but the mouse and keyboard can only be hooked up to one computer at a time. To minimize the frequency of switching (and as a way to keep work and home separate), I decided to keep the mouse and keyboard hooked to the work computer on work days and to switch to the home computer on other days. Now... if you're still wondering why this would affect me checking my personal e-mail, Facebook, etc.: there's just no way I would do any of those on the work computer. And I'm too lazy to do those things consistently on my phone. ^^;

Having said all that, here's how my schedule looks like these days. 

MONDAY - FRIDAY (When I'm working)
7 AM: Wake up (if I wake up earlier I do my stuffs earlier and then laze about until work)
7 - 8 AM: Morning stuffs + phone games (brush teeth, shower, exercise, playing SINoALICE and Fate/Grand Order)
8 - 9 AM: Genshin Impact + free time + breakfast (If I do have any free time after Genshin, I may switch games or continue playing)
9 - 5 PM: Work + lunch (5 PM is the ideal end time for work but the reality is that often I finish much later... between 7 - 10 PM)
5 - 10 PM: Genshin Impact + free time + dinner (I'd only go on Genshin a second time if I'm working on the battle pass or if there's an event going on)
10 - 10:20 PM: SINoALICE Colo (phone game)
10:20 - 11 PM: Getting ready for sleeping (brush teeth, playing SINoALICE and Fate/Grand Order)
Sometime between 11 PM to midnight: Sleep!

With the free time, I usually end up playing video games on my consoles / handhelds, but sometimes I also read, watch YouTube videos / Twitch streams, sing, or clean up my room a bit.

Once a week (usually on Thursday), I like to use the Toronto Public Library's streaming service (currently Hoopla) and watch a movie.


SATURDAY
7 AM: Wake up
7 - 8 AM: Morning stuffs + phone games
8 AM - 10 PM: Genshin + checking e-mails, Facebook, gaming news, etc + free time + breakfast, lunch, dinner
10 - 10:20 PM: SINoALICE Colo (phone game)
10:20 - 11 PM: Getting ready for sleeping
Sometime between 11 PM to 1 AM: Sleep!

SUNDAY
Sometime between 7 - 8 AM: Wake up
8 - 9 AM: Morning stuffs + phone games
9 - 2:30 AM: Free time + breakfast, lunch
2:30 - 8-ish PM: Co-oping something with my sister + watching something on Netflix (We usually co-op Genshin if we're working on the battle pass or if there's an event that's co-op-able)
8-ish - 10 PM: Free time + dinner
10 - 10:20 PM: SINoALICE Colo (phone game)
10:20 - 11 PM: Getting ready for sleeping
Sometime between 11 PM to midnight: Sleep!

On the weekends, my free time is often used in the following order / priority:
-watching shows my LINE friends are watching (currently Masked Singer and Dominos Master)
-watching 1-3 movies / shows on My List that will be leaving Netflix soon. If nothing is leaving, then watching 2 movies or a few episodes of a show
-watching 2-4 episodes of something on Crunchyroll
-blogging (I'll make this a priority, lol)

Once I feel I've satisfied the above, I can use my free time for other things like playing video games on the computer, playing around with Ren'py or RPG Maker (very rare but I do get urges from time to time), or other random things. Before the pandemic, I would sometimes hang out with friends or go out shopping / watching a movie.

Sometimes co-oping with my sister could be moved to Saturday or to a later time, depending on each other's schedule.

Once a month, I try to have a voice chat with my LINE friends.

Somewhere in my schedule, I am also doing these everyday:
-playing Wordle and Quordle (if I remember)
-logging into Dx2 SMT: Liberation and doing the daily missions
-using up my AP for SINoALICE
-using up my AP for Fate / Grand Order (when there's an event or I feel like using the AP)

Annnnd that's it.

Please don't get the idea that I'm a person who needs rigid schedules, because that isn't true. I do tend to list out things to do on the weekend, but I'm very fluid on when I do them, if I do them at all.

To anybody who actually read this, thanks for reading! :)

As always, feel free to comment if you like. What kind of schedule do you have, if you have one? :)

This was meant to be a warm-up to blogging again. I was intending this to be short, but it got long-ish, hahaha ^^;

Take care and stay safe. Until next time! :)
