Checking for changes in the weather every 5 hours in hope of Snow in the SoCal mountains,

buying tons of gear that I probably don't need
I.e. 3 pairs of goggles from various newschoolers,

Also just bought new boots so I'm stoked to try em out

In October I was really good about exercising every day. Now that I'm in my ski town I've barley done any exercising, eating discount sushi and drinking from the local brewery. Still like nine days til the mountain opens.

ignoring homework to spend time on NS even when I have been on for 6 hours and there is no new content...

This happens every day.

Been working legs and core a little harder in the gym. Watching a lot of ski edits for inspiration.
But the biggest thing is not masterbating. Felt like I was depositing too much energy into my happy sock every day. I gotta quit doing that
