Fell asleep around 8. Woke up at 4 and didn't got up. Had breakfast at 7, then headed to the study room. Cancelled the trial of my second Lingoda account, and created my third account. Unfortunately, I couldn't add a credit card that was used before to the account, which was required to start the trial. Nevertheless, I got some ego cards, which were virtual credit cards. I used one of them and started my third trial. Maybe I could create new accounts with new Paypal accounts. I felt sorry for Lingoda, but it was way too expensive. Maybe working harder could make me feel less sorry about that, I decided to take part in six lessons, or two trials per week. Then I was busy at setting up clash. The configuration file was easier to write, compared to V2Ray. When I set up V2Ray instances on Friday, I spent most of time making sure the format of its JSON configuration file was correct. Well, I have never been a meticulous man. Went out with my father to get our hair cut at half past 9, and returned home at half past 10. Kept working on clash until lunch. Played FIFA after lunch, then fixed some small problems of clash, such as local DNS. Booked two English lessons in the afternoon, which would started at 2 and ended at 4. Started prepared for them at 1:20. But the first lesson was cancelled. It was already 2:20, so I did the workout and read some books instead. The second lesson was not cancelled. For some reason, I was not in my best state and made many more mistakes than usual when reading. So I was not motivated to take part in the discussion actively. There were only three students other than me, one man and two women. Their English level were average among students I had met on Lingoda, and they were not active as well. As a result, the entire lesson was basically quiet and the teacher seemed somewhat disappointed. Maybe I should be more active and play as an assistant of the teacher since I won't pay for the lesson and it may also help me gain some confidence. Afterwards, I spent one pomodoro reading books since I knew that only one was needed to make the number of completed pomodoroes in this week reach 100. I would say 100 is a little higher than expected. There were some points I felt stressed, and I don't think I can reach 100 every week. But I don't want to make a goal for next week. So, I will stil work as I wish in the next week. But if the number exceeds 90, I may consider having a rest seriously.
