#data monkey

I'm doing something a little different this year. Rather than create some resolution to lose weight or quit coffee like half the other people out there, I'm going to count and calculate more.

Maybe it's because I spent the latter half of last year in a new role and have come to embrase MS Excel, or maybe it's because I'll be buying a house later this year with money I have saved. Either way, I should be able to get some interesting figures and focus in on how I spend my time and money.

I've split up various groups including Metrics (i.e. weight, loads of washing), Money (food, travel expenses, coffee) and Time (Mins cleaning or excercising).

So a little bit about me before I brerak out some stats. I'm a mid 20s, single guy, living in a large 1 bedroom apartment. I live by myself, work full-time, study part-time and have no girlfriend (though I have a plant).

For the first week this year, I've spent:

Money

$21.10 on coffee

$37.10 on eating outside home (cafes, bars, reestuarants)

$19.60 on public transport

Metrics

Lost 2.1kgs

2 loads of washing

Time

4 and 3/4 hrs exercising

1 and 1/2 hrs cooking

1 and 1/4 hrs cleaning

Is there any other info you would like me to capture? I'm thinking I should try and include electricity consumption now that I have my SmartMeter.
