Yes! My last day in Pandora has arrived, woohoo:) A little longer than the 60 days I thought I was starting on February 1st, but what a ride it has been. I love that I could do this work-out challenge in the privacy of my own home, at my own time (although the latter was sometimes a struggle;) and with the support of my fandomfriends through Twitter(chat) and LiveJournal. *smishes y'all*
I won't tell you how the RPG/story ends, but I will show you my bad ass certificate after my short review of the final chapter...

( Chapter 60! (spoilers for exercises and story) )
Yeah, you bet I printed that certificate \o/

What's next? I'm going to give myself a work-out break tomorrow and then I'm back to daily standing abs until I decide what challenge to do next. Who's with me?

J.

P.S. If you've added me to your Dreamwidth circle, but you have a new name, please introduce yourself, so I know who's stalking me? I'm BeeLikeJ on every social network I'm on.

Not a bad workday, considering I stayed up until 01:30 to watch the Stage It LIVESTREAM of the J2 panel at the SPN Convention in Seatle last night:) WORTH IT!

When I got home this afternoon I had meant to do my work-out right away, after I peeled the potatoes. Unfortunately I got a little lost on the internet for a while before I started dinner preparations, but around seven I finally put the potatoes on and was ready to do the penultimate chapter of the Age of Pandora...

( Chapter 59 (spoilers for exercises and story plus bonus doodles) )

TOMORROW'S THE FINAL DAY IN PANDORA, EXCITING!

J.

P.S. Calling all SPN/RPF artists and authors for a new round of the

quicky_bang!
Submit your short fic to the claimpost to lure an artist into creating some art for it:)

Haha, already forgot what I told myself yesterday and procrastinated all through the day until I could finally drag myself away from the computer for what turned out to be a very short work-out. Oh, why didn't I do it right away this morning, I'll never learn. *rolls eyes at self*

( Chapter 58 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

TWO DAYS LEFT! WILL I BE ABLE TO SAVE PANDORA? Stay tuned;)

BOOM! I did 5 sets before noon \o/ Level 2, baby!! I love the martial art exercises, especially when I can imagine a fight while doing them;)
Must remember that in the weekends it's best to do the work-out as soon as possible after getting up, because postponing it will slowly but surely drain the fun. Seriously, self, it can be FUN! ;-p

( Chapter 57 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

Only three days left to go! (Unless Pandora comes up with multi-part chapters again, but I'm holding on to the hope that the final chapters can all be done in a day)

Oooh, we're getting close to the end of the Age of Pandora! Here's an update on my exercise journey, it's very long because with traveling and fangirl hangouts in between work I simply didn't have time to post about it the past two weeks. But I did manage to keep on track and I did my work-outs nearly every day, so yay!

( Chapters 44-56 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

I aim to keep a daily diary for the last few chapters. (So this was the last massive work-out post *grins*) Let the count-down begin. Only four chapters to go, dundundunnnn.

The Age of Pandora days are getting a bit blurry, as we reached a chapter that took several days to complete, so from now on I'll refer to the chapter instead of the amount of days. So much for a "60 Day Challenge"... *huffs*
Behind the cut are all the work-outs I did in the past week. I also included a Jeff/Jensen treat at the end, because why not.

( CHAPTERS 38-43 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

I'm gonna pack for my trip to London now. Hope to be able to do the work-outs on the ferry and in my hotel, but I'll also be doing a lot of walking through town, so I'll get enough exercise in between theatre visits and soaking in bubble baths :-p

Will tell y'all all about it when I get back! *waves*

J.

I'm very distracted at the moment by our national elections: we get to vote for members of our parliament on Wednesday. I plan to do a post about it tomorrow, just so you know;)
In other news: the MatchMaker Challenge in the

quicky_bang ART community is a go! The first artworks were already posted today and there's more on the way. If you fancy playing with a short surprise fic, you can still sign up and choose to art for 1, 2 or 3 weeks!

( Chapters 33-37 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

J.

Hey, remember that design project I got at work two weeks ago? The bosslady showed the result to upper management and they were so enthused they now want a poster of their own and they want it FAST. So that's the rest of my week at work planned...

Got a little behind on work-out updates due to fandom fun, so before I catch y'all up on the exercises, here are links to my recently posted artwork!

Papier-mâché and papercut art for the Reverse_Bang
featuring shifters bear!Jeff, deer!Jensen and pink!unicorn!Jared
(includes behind the scenes picspam;)

Paperporn for the SMPC!
an NC-17 scene between (human) Jeff/Jensen/Jared as a sexy follow up to the above shifter story.
(Also includes a making of *grins*)

Last but not least: I opened another round of the MatchMakerChallenge in the

quicky_bang artcommunity in which I hand out short surprise fics to art for. Come over if you want to play: pick a date in March and choose to art with a 1, 2 or 3 week deadline...

Right, onwards to the Age of Pandora:

( Chapter 29-32 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

J.

Spent Wednesday evening at my mom's after doing Ch. 26 of Age of Pandora at home first;).
On Thursday I suddenly got a deadline at work for that design project they'd asked me to do, which was little stressful, yet fun in the end and I got enthused praise from one of the top bosses, so yay! Had planned to do Ch. 27 immediately when I got home, but got a call from brotherdearest and we chatted for quite some time *grins* It was hard to get started after sitting down for so long, but I did the whole thing (bloody hell, 10 sets?!).
This afternoon I had a massage appointment right after work, which left me all sleepy and snuggly for the rest of the afternoon. Since Ch. 28 was pretty chill, I was able to do it though.

( Chapter 26-28 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

I signed up for the

smpc for March 5, so I'll be arting tomorrow! After that, I plan to pick a date in the

quicky_bang MatchMaker Challenge...
(IF THERE ARE ANY ARTISTS OUT THERE WHO WANT TO JOIN IN, COME OVER!)

Will try to catch up on RB artwork and start replying to comments.
Gosh, where did this week go?

J.

I totally did the thing yesterday, but had so many social media to catch up with, that I was too exhausted to post about it. (I had to fill the queue for the NicknGreg Tumblr and was almost a week behind with my Daily Dutch Blog, which is now up to date again - link in sidebar;)

I also had to postpone commenting on new art in the

spn_reversebang until tonight and still haven't had time to respond to comments on my own RB artwork and other post from last week. I'll get to that as soon as possible (which is probably Thursday, because tomorrow night I'll be having dinner at my mom's and we usually end up hanging in front of the TV until late;)

( Chapter 24+25 (spoilers for exercises) )

I really miss ABS work-outs in this challenge, so I've decided to collect a couple of Darebee Core sessions to add to the Age of Pandora sets in the weekends. If you want my selection of work-outs for that, let me know and I'll share a pdf:)

Last but not least: a promo for my

quicky_bang community for SPN/RPF artists: there is a new MatchMaker Challenge! You can sign up with any start date in March and get a surprise short fic to art for in 1, 2 or 3 weeks. Come on over and pick a blind date, a speed date or a double date!

J.

I'm working on an Amsterdam picspam, but if you don't want to wait for that and/or you don't care about my work-out posts, why not check out my Reverse Bang ARTPOST;)

( Chapter 23 (spoilers for exercises and story) )

Hope to upload my photos tonight. I'll be back;)

J.

Pfff, what a week. I had planned to keep up with my work-outs while I was in Amsterdam on Monday and Tuesday, but the floor of my brother's third floor apartment started creaking as soon as I showed him how to do a half jack and I'm pretty sure I felt the floorboards moving along too, so I figured it was safer to not do any more jumping. I did walk all over town with

sillie82 and

bflyw though: according to their trackers 16000 and 9000 something steps respectively, so I'd say I did get enough exercise. (I'll post about our fangirl get-together more extensively later;)

Wednesday and Thursday were crazy days at work, as I was still working on that extra design assignment and I found my stresslevels went up like woah; I'm glad I managed to have fun with it eventually.
At home I caught up with Age of Pandora. Even though I first had wanted to skip the Chapters I missed, I decided to play properly after all and did Chapter 20 and 21.

On Fridays I only work mornings and I spent my whole afternoon plus evening coding my Reverse Bang ARTPOST! I was pretty stiff from sitting down for hours and my body was acting up hormonally on top of that, so I gave myself permission to skip the work-out.

I got back to it today with Chapter 22. Behind the cut a review and possible spoilers for the story...

( Chapter 20+21+22 )

I'm gonna sort out some photos of my time in Amsterdam; I only made a few of The Station Breaks concert and they are blurry, but I WAS THERE and had a great time plus I know

sillie82 and

bflyw made photos and vids, so I don't mind;) What have you been up to?

J.

A quiet day, compared to yesterday's hectic events. All I had to do were the dishes, packing for my fangirling trip, finishing touches and photographing my RB artwork and, oh right, my Age of Pandora Work-Out...

Now I'm gonna get dressed and finish packing for my three days of fangirling in Amsterdam. I will meet up with

bflyw and her daughter and

sillie82. Tonight I will pick up BflyW and A. from the airport and escort them to their hotel. I will sleep over at my brother's and tomorrow we'll all meet up to explore Amsterdam. At night we're going to a concert of the Stationbreaks (with Rob Benedict and Jason Manns!) and on Tuesday we'll do more touristy things (and possibly watch some Supernatural *grins*) \o/

Will tell you all about our adventures when I get back!

BYE!

J.

P.S. Looks like Chapter 20 are all well known exercises I will be able to do at my brother's; I will update you on that later as well.

An exciting day today. I spent the whole day arting, messing with paint and paper in my pajamas, woohoo! Colour teasers in my Instagram: White / Pink / Brown (All will be revealed next week!)

Unfortunately later in the afternoon the day took a shit turn, when I heard a disturbance at the neighbour's apartment. ( Cut for domestic violence - everyone is okay now )

ANYWAY... this put me in a GREAT mood for today's work-out session which was 10 minutes of non-stop fighting moves. I decided to not do the random exercises in Chapter 18 of Age of Pandora, but did a boxing session with my Moov-activity tracker...

( Chapter 18 + preview Chapter 19 )
SCRAPS: 400

I had planned some more arting, but I think I'd rather go to bed now. Night y'all!

Short workday because I had an appointment for a lung-function-test since I can't seem to get rid of my cough in between those extreme colds I've been having. I don't think this was the right test for that, but I have one of those doctors that prefers to check off a list instead of actually dealing with the problem straight away. *sighs* As I expected I don't have astma. Duh. No idea what's next on the list, we'll see.

Ehm, also: before the test I had to get on a scale and as I didn't have a clue about my weight I didn't know what to expect, but I've been feeling really great about myself ever since I changed my over-eating habits and started daily work-outs last year, so I shouldn't really care anyway, but I was rather shocked and disappointed to find out I weighed over a hundred kilos with clothes and shoes on, djeebus fuck. BUT, even though my first instinct was to go to the store and gets loads of snack food, I resisted that urge and did my regular groceries. *beams with pride* So there.

(I considered not posting about this, but I decided it was important to write it down.)

So. Age of Pandora. Whoa, all new exercises today! I chose to do 10 repeats of both X-moves (Level 3), did 3 sets (Level 1) and I was dripping sweat for real even before I was finished.

( Chapter 17 favorite (spoilers for exercises) + preview Chapter 18 )

Last but not least:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY,

sleepypercy!
May these two brighten your day (and inspire you to keep going on our Age of Pandora travels;) *twirls you*

Quick post, because I have to art (I'll catch up with RB posts tomorrow). Did the thing instead of buying myself out of it with scraps \o/

Today was one of those work-outs you can spread out over the whole day, and I managed to do a couple of sets at work (in the toilet, hehehehe).
Spending the evening at my mom's; had excellent dinner and I brought a delicious dessert. As soon as this post is up, I'm gonna do some couch hanging. I love our weekly Wednesdaynights:)

Ehm, I don't really know where I am on the map, but I did a warm-up and half jacks by way of traveling and then reinforced my camp.

Did the thing almost immediately after I got home from work \o/ Had a bit of a mixed day, because next to my regular job (collecting geographical data), I got a special assignment in the design department! I was in awe of the amazing equipment they have there. The assignment itself is a little stressful, but the lovely people on this floor made me feel very welcome and I think I'm gonna be okay:)

Meant to do the thing right after breakfast (a light meal: 2 beschuitjes with cheese and a glass of orange juice with pulp) but then my Twitterfeed filled up with reports from the Saturday Night Special at the Las Vegas Convention, so I got distracted;) I always get so giddy when my friends are having fun and from the looks and sounds of it, this was one of those unforgetable concerts.

dugindeep shot some marvelous vids, here's Ruth doing a beautiful version of Bang Bang; and here's a Jensen singing for his Brother <3

After the concert, I could finally drag myself away from the screen and do my Chapter 12 Work-Out. There were two choices, I decided to go with the one that I would like to imagine myself choosing in a post apocalyptic world....

( Chapter 12B favorite (spoiler for exercise) )

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna do some arts & crafts for my RB...

PINGING
