Making the Most of Free Time: A Productive Week Recap

As the new school term began, I decided to get ahead. I completed all my coursework for the week in both of my classes. This early completion freed up some valuable time, which I used to focus on personal projects and preparations. Here’s a rundown of how I spent that free time in a productive manner:

Social Media and Website Updates

I took the opportunity to update all my social media accounts. I even created an introduction video for my pages and Twitch channel. Additionally, I launched my website, iZimmbi, where I uploaded new content. It was exciting to see everything come together, and I’m proud of the work I’ve done so far.

Preparing for Accelerated Testing

I also began prepping for an accelerated test-out opportunity for an upcoming psychology class. The exam window was initially open from August 20th, 2024, to August 26th, 2024. Unfortunately, I didn’t feel quite ready to take it. As of now, I’ve rescheduled the test for the week of September 3rd to September 9th. This gives me more time to prepare. Testing out of classes is a strategic decision for me. It helps lower the cost of my education. Also, it shortens the time it will take to finish my degree. There are seven other courses that offer this option, and I plan to take full advantage of it. Next time, I’ll focus on studying for these exams before scheduling them, to avoid the stress of tight deadlines.

Family Time and Potty Training Wins

I’ve been working on a consistent potty training schedule for my toddler. This week, she pooped on the toilet for the first time! I’m also trying to get everyone in the household to eat dinner earlier. This way, we can go to bed on time. Our teenager is back in school, so it’s especially important.

Struggles with Streaming and Blog Planning

I’ve been aiming to livestream on Twitch on Thursdays and Sundays. Unfortunately, I haven’t found the motivation or drive to follow through. I’m going to keep these streams on my schedule and hope to go live soon. When I do, I’ll announce it on my social media pages. You can also watch it on the Stream page of my website.

On a brighter note, I’ve been planning blog articles and posting them on Tuesdays and Thursdays, twice a week. So far, I’m pleased with how well I’ve stuck to that schedule.

Gratitude for Social Media Growth

Finally, I want to express my gratitude for the growth of my social media pages over the past week. The support means a lot to me, and I’m excited to keep creating and sharing content with all of you.
