Day 4 - First day of school, during Water Challenge... HALF WAY!

Haha, it's been an interesting day.. so far ;)

Judging by how I worked in chemistry this morning, I don't think I was fully awake... either that, I clearly wasn't concentrating enough! Was very happy to hear that biology was cancelled this morning though ;) maybe got a bit too excited! I do love biology though - don't get me wrong :P It just gives me more time to catch up on work ;)

Woke up rather late this morning, but then again, I did to to sleep pretty late last night, so no surprises there :P I believe the time was around 6:20am. :-) This kinda meant that I couldn't get myself washed using Esther's idea, or wash my hair, soo... I used my 'intelligence' and soaked the towel in about 300ml of water and gave myself a wash with that - better than nothing to be honest!

I hope I didn't seem too messy/smelly today :P If I did, my sincerely apologies! But trying to use about 10L a day and therefore not having a shower seems to do that to you....

The day carried on by moving on to breakfast - which to my surprise wasn't just toast, but piece of this meat thing my mum had prepared many days ago in Korean style ;) The cooking & washing up the pan it was used to cook in probably used about 250ml, and my washing up (i.e. plate, fork & knife) required 200ml.
I didn't drink anything this morning... I think several people told me off for that at school today :P Ooops!

Oh, to certain someone, with name beginning with A, you know you said you didn't need to eat lunch as much as I said I can survive without drinking? I hope you had lunch... otherwise that really would've been silly! ;)

Anyhow, I cleaned my teeth & stuff using 300ml, and used extra 200ml to make my appearance reasonably clean... hope it was okay? ;)

Had an awesome start to school day(: Prayer meeting was rather very awesome! A great way to start the morning & the week(: Very powerful too... pity that I had period 1 though... :P in most ways, I'm rather glad the lesson bell didn't ring this morning! ;)

During break, I had half of my lunch - which were mango slices :) yum!

At lunch: basically, I spent first half of my lunch having a violin lesson, then choir (yes Parry! ;)) for the second half, so I couldn't actually eat my lunch properly :P AND, because of the limitation in cutlery, I didn't even use my pack lunch box! - Used plastic bags instead :-) although I'm not entirely sure which is more 'eco-friendly'... ;) aha(:

So, as a result, I had half of my sandwich on the way to Further Maths, where some people discussed about my lack of drinking water... not entirely sure how/why the conversation went that way!

During Further Maths, I went to the loo.. flushed it (using one of my free public toilet flushes ;)) because I'm a good girl ;) and used antibacterial hand gel to wash my hands because it's really hard to measure how much water I use with the school taps, because they're one of those press-on-automatic-that-won't-turn-off-till-ages-after taps ;) besides, using antibacterial hand gel was probably more clean to be honest! ;)

Because my biology lesson was cancelled, I went to the library for p5 and did some mechanics(: and had some interesting chats with lovely people too! ;)

Afterwards, whilst walking to Centre, I had the rest of my bacon sandwich (yeh... I forgot to mention what it was, didn't I?) Calculating the water usage for my lunch overall, I think it was probably about 400ml, including all the preparation and stuff like that :P and yhh... I didn't drink anything during school time either! ;)

Came home, had some small potatoes as 'snack' because parents weren't to be back till a bit later, using plate & fork :) For cooking, my share probably would've been maximum of 200ml including the washing up :P and my cutlery (plate, mug & fork) required 150ml in washing up ;) I'm getting pretty slick at this minimum-water-for-washing-up-business! ;) I actually drank something too - about 400ml of milk, which doesn't count towards my water allowances... haha(:

Okay, and finally (for now) is my tea:
- Rice (150ml... estimate :P)
- All other Korean stuff & leftover from this morning (didn't require any water to cook anything, so 250ml for washing up would do ;))
- My cutlery (plate, spoon, chopsticks) required 150ml to wash up :) so yhhh :P
- and to conclude, I had a satsuma(; which obviously doesn't require water ;)

That's it, for now ;) going to get some 'real' work done tonight... and violin! :P

So, Day 4 total water usage so far: 2.55L + 1 free flush ;)

Over half way now :-) I must say, it's truly been a valuable and interesting experience so far... more to come I guess(: Just realised how detailed my blog accounts are... you could stalk me using this if you really want :P but I doubt that somehow ;) 

Alright, should head off :P see you soon, and thank-you for reading! :-)
