Bottom post of the previous page:
I made some progress yesterday, finishing up two sections, and then managed to finish the vast majority of all car work today as well as managing to get in a couple sections of reading!

Yesterday was pretty alright considering the car work that I keep on doing, I managed to get through a bit of reading and am hoping to do at least as much if not more today!

I had a pretty bad headache yesterday and unfortunately had all of my more recent notes disappear. I luckily had just backed up so I only lost a days' worth of progress, however I was frustrated enough to go to bed without posting to the forum or updating my journal. Luckily I got my headache taken care of and picked up my transmission fluid, so hopefully I am able to get some stuff done.

Yesterday I did get some work done, not nearly as much as I wanted. I thought I had finally finished working on my vehicle only to have an alarm come on and refuse to turn off at the end of the drive. Today I have managed to do quite a few tasks, but I am finding this week's habit rather tricky.

We/I missed you in the meeting!
The objects and colors I came up with were:
-CLS colors - the 4 Explorer Blues, items = the hands holding a heart gesture, the the Scholar s Atom, the Club 100 globe, and the Orion-Polaris(little dipper) constellations.

The day before yesterday I was fairly productive despite having to finish up car diagnostics. Yesterday, however, I was not as productive as I had wanted to be, for I had to replace my phone's keyboard. I had not even seen that there was a meeting, that is my bad! I was thinking that we could have the colors be a dark green, teal, light blue, and dark blue. I like the Scholar's Atom as a symbol. I also like the Orion-Polaris constellations, although I am personally more of a fan of Aldebaran and the taurus constellation. The Club 100 globe is pretty also pretty good since it is a good representation of the various languages spoken around the world. Today I will be trying to get more done, but I am not sure how well I will do, for I tried to skip sleeping and failed, resulting in having even less productive time early in the day.

The nice thing about Orion-Polaris(Little Dipper) is that they can be seen basically in both hemispheres (unless really extreme) but certainly in Chicago/Colorado/Colombia.
I'm even incorporating it into the continuation of my Spaceman/To-Explore-My-World-Tattoo:

That is pretty cool, although you can also see Taurus in the southern hemisphere! I will concede that Betelgeuse is a much more ridiculous start than Aldebaran. Today I have managed to get some more car work done, really looking forward to finally being done with automotive work.

Also, that is quite the intricate tattoo, looks really cool though! Today I was reminded of the freedom of the USA when I learned that I will need to probably wait about a minimum of 45 minutes to get my car emission tested due to the place being massively understaffed! Will definitely bring my e-book and get in some study when I go to do that.

Having modified my HAP this week I will hopefully do better than I did last week. It will probably also help that I am not having to spend tons of time working on cars every day of the week in addition to trying to keep up with the study. Yesterday I managed to get in some reading, but not much. Building habits seems to be rather tricky for me, but I think that is the big benefit of gamifying everything. I did spend quite a while thinking about how to best improve the educational game concept, so I will have to do a big write up on it some time this week to keep from forgetting everything.

Yesterday I managed to watch quite a few video lectures, it was pretty nice to be able to see the information presented in a more interactive way than I have been getting through the textbooks.
