“What should I do? It is only 7:30 in the morning!” “How about going to dining hall to have breakfast?” “Emmm, I never went for it. How is it?” “It tastes quite good.” I said with a smile on my face.
Persist is never easy. I can not believe it has been one month since we watched the movie, Julie and Julia. One month, had just passed in a second. In my memory, we seemed just finished the movie last week. Although during the process I felt the challenge is too long, it was just a short period when I look back. 30 days were not that long, but it brought me a lot of achievements. This morning I slept only until 7:00. One cause of getting up early was the weather, but the other was the challenge. I felt like I forget to do something this whole day, because I did not go to breakfast. Are breakfast necessary to me now? I guess not. At the beginning, even to the last part of the challenge, I don’t believe one month can change one’s habit, but now I realize it is a truth. I did not feel it because I was in it. Looking back from the end, I see the effect.
At the beginning, I was full of energy. I expecting to do it at the beginning(Although I felt tired right after the first post). I was looking forward to have a great breakfast month in the dining hall. I thought the challenge will be a little bit hard for be, but never like that tough when I follow it. I picked eating breakfast not only for eating breakfast, but having a good habit. When I saw someone sitting in the dining hall and eating breakfast, I always thought about how could they get up. Now I understand that, getting up is a kind of tough sport which need a lot of willpower. I mentioned about my storage of sleeping at the beginning, and it was full charged at the beginning of the challenge. Although I said I hate getting up in the second blog, I was still full of vitality. I ate cereal for several days at the beginning of the challenge, because I did not have enough appetite the first several days. Cereal will never make people be tired of, but it can not count as a healthy breakfast. The next several days, I started about my scrambled eggs life.
In the middle part, I was insisting with my willpower and scrambled eggs. I changed my menu of breakfast into the food they cooked every morning. The first week after I made that decision, I felt fine about the food, but question came right after. After I finished my scrambled eggs in my plate one day, I decided to blame on scrambled eggs for some days. Then this poor dishes appeared in my blog more often than any other things. It first appeared in blog4, and ended its stories in “99 ways to cook eggs”,the erupting of my feeling about eggs. After I wrote “99 ways to cook eggs”, I tried to avoid to eat eggs in the morning. I started to feel tough to get up. Every morning I got up in a unwilling situation because the breakfast was not attractive any more. I tried to find some beautiful scenes in the morning to write, but I failed. Getting became harder and harder.
In the last part, I almost gave up my challenge. My charge of sleeping had totally ran out at the last part of the challenge. I was afraid of I could not get up the next morning every day. Every morning I stayed on the bed for a while, judging about sleeping or going for breakfast. The aim of having good habit had been thrown out away long time ago, and the only thing left in my mind was getting up for breakfast. The challenge was simplified as eating breakfast. Several times I nearly gave up my challenge, but finally, I finished it, at that Friday morning, with scrambled eggs and cereal, partners who campaigned with me through the challenge.
These 30 days was tough, but I know that I learned a lot from it. Although I will not go for breakfast for the next whole month, I won’t forget the challenge with pain and gain; I won’t forget those scrambled eggs I ate. These thirty days were so special that I may remember forever. I did not realize the my change during the challenge, but I found that, I noticed the importance of time because of the challenge. Every second is very important.
