Since I have 8AM classes on Tuesday/Thursday, I usually take an evening shower so I don’t have to wake up even earlier to shower. However, I was so busy with homework last night, I told myself I’d just take a shower when I woke up this morning. Too bad I forgot that my shower would be around 7:15AM, when my 3 apartment-mates are still asleep. So I tried to take a 3-minute shower without music, my timekeeper throughout this challenge.
Needless to say, I failed.
Okay, it wasn’t too bad. I thought I’d be okay, try to go my normal fast 3-minute pace, but the hot water was just what I needed to wake me up that early in the morning. From the time on my clock when I left my room to the time on the clock when I got back in, I estimate my shower was around 5-6 minutes.
I’m not going to let this keep me down, though! I just got a bunch of new Earth Lovers goodies from The Body Shop and I can’t wait to shower tomorrow and let you know how awesome they are! (Though I’m not sure their awesomeness will make tomorrow’s shower that much shorter…)
After I got out of my shower and realized my defeat, I had to go out onto the balcony and clear my head. So far along and my streak goes down the drain, literally. Seeing the beauty of the ocean and the Golden Gate Bridge, I was reminded of why I’m doing this: the conserve our natural resources. Tomorrow is another day and today will be just another experience that makes me wiser.
In the words of my boyfriend: “I’m wearing pants, it’s gonna be a great day.”
