Early morning life revamping

There are things I need to get done today, and things I need to get done the rest of the month. And while usually I would list everything in the same page, Ramadan starts tomorrow and I need to first figure out my schedule for that month before proceeding.

Things I need to get done today - of which, if i do even one, it's a big accomplishment,

Cleaning: My room is... decent. Really, not much cleaning and more restacking. My piles off books are out of their piles therefore once I return them to their piles the room can be considered clean. The true enemy here is the bathroom, which I need to declutter and scrub down from top to bottom.

Ironing: As someone who exclusively only wears full length dresses now, I always have too much ironing to do. Last minute plans are a hassle because last minute ironing does not work out with long long dresses, and early plans are a hassle because my willpower won't let me iron anyways. Therefore, my proposed method is to just spend one afternoon breaking my back to iron everything in one go, which hopefully frees up a few months of ironing. (As she never gets out of her house.)

Eat a vegetable: I ate... so many brownies yesterday. The issue here is I feel junk food as a greasiness in my throat which is a horrid feeling truly. And while eating junk is great, it's not the best on days I want to be productive because I feel too heavy to do anything. Therefore I need to like, eat a vegetable and hope it cancels everything out.

Finish Okumuras Palace: this takes top priority okay. Persona 5's worst villian yet. In terms of writing and not character. I remember his boss fight being a bitch too seriouslyyyyyyyyy.........

Order everything I put into my cart: how am i too lazy to just insert card details seriously.

Figure out my general goals heading into Ramadan, decide which hobbies to integrate into free time, figure out timings to do my studying and working out and eating

Proposed music: digesting the glitch mode album.
Proposed order: Game first, everything else later

Tentative Ramadan Plans

Most likely will lose most of the first week and part of the second week due to period, buttt I'm still going to try to be organized and substitute wherever I can. It still doesn't feel like Ramadan is truly here. I want to make the month count this time. 

Religious Goals

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Take up good deeds only as much as you are able, for the best deeds are those done regularly even if they are few. [Sunan Ibn Mājah 4240].

I will keep this advice as my baseline for any bonus Good Deeds I do. My current priority list is: Sunnah prayer before fajr, 8 rakat taraweeh per night, and rememorizing the two chapters of Quran that I am slowly forgetting. In addition, I will try to listen to alteast one religious lecture per day and find as many Islamic ebooks to read throughout the month. I think these are do-able, and with the exception of taraweeh, hopefully I will be able to continue the habits even after Ramadan is over.

Schedule

I have the first week free, but I'll plan my day around school times regardless.

Waking up: I am considering 4am, because I want my suhoor to be as late as possible (will detail in following section). After suhoor, I can take my time with fajr prayers, recite dhikr, and recite a bit of Quran. I'm not entirely sure how long this will all take, but it's reasonable to expect to finish before 6am. I would like to then workout - which is definitely going to be a trial and error process. Strength training more than cardio, and we'll figure it out from there. This gives me enough time to shower, freshen up, and for my hair to dry before I have to go to school.

School is at 9am. I can prepare food for iftar beforehand (desserts and juice most likely). Reminder to sunscreen before going out.

School finishes at 12pm. I'll come home, most likely tired but Insha Allah migraine free. I'll take time with my shower afterwards. No lunch, so I can pray immediately after the shower, recite some Quran, and get down to studying. 2 hours per day is my target, so I'll most likely finish around 3pm.

3pm onwards is another free slot. Do whatever I want provided I pray asr on time, dhikr properly, and recite a bit of Quran. Good chance of napping.

Next will be iftar. I think iftar --> magrib --> Quran --> Isha --> taraweeh --> food again --> free time --> sleep is a reasonable schedule. I'll try to sleep by 9pm. I know that's quite early but... if I'm waking up so early then I need to sleep early. If I take a nap ofc I'll sleep later or if I sleep later then I'll take a nap.

In case of period I still probably will not eat proper meals until iftar. Prayer times and such can be substituted with dhikr and religious lectures and dua and such.

Energy conservation and health

Sugar: No sugar after iftar. Seriously! I crash too hard after sugar these days and that's not ideal at all especially when I need to be alert for classes and studying.

Suhoor: Drink sports drinks to prevent migraines. Make sure to fill up on healthy food for energy. No junk for this specific meal! Eat this as late as possible to prevent migraines as well.

Iftar: Up to my mood tbh. It's difficult to eat a lot during iftar so I'll most likely eat all the snacks here.

Post-isha: will get hungry by then, so eat a proper proper meal.
