I couldn’t stand my roommate, Caleb, at first. Our online conversations before university had led me to believe he was someone similar to me—reserved and bookish occasional gamer. But the person I met was a whirlwind of energy that exuded force, a stark contrast to my quiet demeanor. Caleb was the epitome of a dude bro, his boisterous charm drawing people like moths to a flame. His presence was overwhelming, and I often found myself irritated, yet intrigued by his larger-than-life persona.

Caleb's influence began subtly. He would often encourage me to join him for early morning workouts. "C'mon, bro. It's good for you," he'd insist, his enthusiasm chipping away at my reluctance. The gym sessions were grueling, yet there was a sense of camaraderie that I couldn’t help but enjoy. His philosophy of 'being built different' was both baffling and inspiring.

Gradually, I found myself being pulled into a more disciplined lifestyle. Caleb was a force of nature, waking up at the crack of dawn with a zeal that was infectious. "Discipline starts with the dawn," he'd proclaim, and I found myself mirroring his routine. I began with 50 push-ups each morning, a task that seemed insurmountable at first, but grew easier with time. Breakfasts transformed from sugary cereals to eggs and orange juice, fueling my body in ways I hadn’t imagined.

Then came the cold showers, a practice that initially felt like torture. "It's about pushing your limits, bro," Caleb would encourage, a mischievous glint in his eye. I begrudgingly started, each icy blast a battle of willpower. But with time, what was once a dreaded experience became a refreshing challenge.

The changes in me were not just physical. My confidence soared, and I found myself engaging more with others, stepping out from behind the safety of my books. My clothes fit better, and my posture improved. Caleb’s influence was unmistakable. "Show off that progress, man! Your life is defined by discipline," he'd say, his encouragement a accompanied by a pec dance.

Our relationship, initially strained, evolved into a mutual respect. I realized that beneath Caleb's flashy exterior lay a deep commitment to self-improvement. His antics, which I had once found abrasive, were now moments of inspiration.

One evening, after a particularly intense workout session, Caleb opened up about his philosophy. "Being disciplined isn't just about the gains or the girls," he mused, a rare seriousness in his tone. "It's about loving the journey, the daily grind. It's about finding joy in discipline itself. That's the real reward."

His words struck a chord within me. Caleb, the embodiment of discipline, had unwittingly become a mentor, guiding me towards a path of self-discovery and growth. His relentless pursuit of excellence had become my own, a shared journey that transcended our initial differences. In that moment, my respect for Caleb deepened, transforming my once intolerable roommate into an unlikely source of inspiration.

Because I was inspired by the incomparable @plastiquefruit , I started doing a daily push-up challenge in August. 50 a day. I managed to get in every day but a rest day on the 15th.

This month I’m doing 65/workout day. I break them up in a 5’ EMOM (every minute on the minute). Here’s my first 13 of today. I really hope y’all approve.

So, I just got my shiny new Oura Ring 4 in silver, size 8, and let me tell you, it’s like wearing a tiny disco ball on my finger! 💃💍

First off, who knew that a smart ring could track my sleep better than my mother? Seriously, I put it on, and it’s like, “Hey, you woke up at 3:02 AM because you had a nightmare about your ex. Also, you rolled over 17 times and snored like a bear.” Thanks, Oura, for the not-so-subtle reminders of my life choices. 😅

And let’s talk about the sizing kit. I felt like I was preparing for a royal fitting. “Your Highness, we have the size 8 ready, but would you like to try the size 7.5 just in case your finger shrinks from all that late-night snacking?” 🍕👑

Fitness tracking? Oh boy! It’s like having my own personal trainer that I can ignore! “You’ve only walked 500 steps today, and you’ve binge-watched three seasons of your favorite show. Maybe try moving a little?” Thanks, Oura, but I’m in a committed relationship with my couch right now! 🛋️❤️

And can we talk about battery life? Up to 8 days? I don’t even know what I’m going to do with that kind of power! Will I finally be able to go on a week-long adventure without worrying about charging my ring? Who am I kidding? I’ll probably forget I have it on and end up charging it like it’s my phone—every night. 📱🔋

In conclusion, if you’re looking for a stylish accessory that will remind you of all the questionable life decisions you’ve made while simultaneously tracking your every move, the Oura Ring 4 is your new best friend! Just don’t blame me when it starts giving you unsolicited advice about your sleep schedule. 😴💤 ______ The Ring Here

i started rereading jurassic park this week, a bit belated for the anniversary and long overdue for me in general. the first time i read it, i was in 9th grade and often read during my geography class, so i wasn't annotating or tabbing sections (i am now).

i'm a little over a quarter of the way through it, and i just. i know i mentioned this a few years ago, but it continues to both fascinate me and crack me up that this is raph's favorite book, and that he prefers it to the movie.

a quarter of the way through, and there has been so much scientific discussion, across paleontology, botany, and mathematics and chaos theory. we've only just now arrived at the dinosaur hatchery and encountered a baby velociraptor (i love her).

like, i know it's a given that all four of the boys are nerds on varying spots of the spectrum, but this just makes the return of savanti episodes a trillion times funnier to me because you know don, especially, has raph clocked.

"and i see a geekasaurus rex--" raphael shut your goofy punk mouth, i know the reason you're eager to find someone to fight right now is because you have so much pent up excitement over being here that you don't know what else to do with the excess energy--you're about to vibrate through the wall, i can feel the oncoming sonic boom from here; you're not fooling anyone. now hurry up and go read all the plaques on the triceratops display; i know you're itching to find something to use that'll wig out traximus later. go on, shoo.
