I began this semester 3 1/2 weeks ago and I have 1. Spent ungodly amounts of time on the content 2. Looked into dropping the class and 3. Hired a tutor.
As good of a math student I was in the past, it is just that, in the past. I hardly remember last week let alone my math skills from over 12 years ago. Calling it quits is not my usual Tough Girl m.o. but desperate times call for desperate measures. Once, however, I found out that dropping the class would set back my graduation date by an obscene amount of time, I decide that quitting would not only ruin my image as a Tough Girl, it would also be the absolute WRONG thing to do! Instead, I decide to call in the heavy artillery and get a tutor. It will cost me an arm and a leg but I can still walk/hobble down the isle and one handedly nab my diploma with one leg so, I felt it worth the price. Marylin is my new friend (a.k.a. tutor) and she will hopefully help me through, what looks to be, a very long semester! I meet with her for the first time on Tuesday! Wish me luck!
On another note, I decided that I need to take care of myself better and show me some lovin'. What does that mean you ask?!? Well, I use "self-love" to describe things I do to take care of me (for a change). I do things like get a manicure & pedicure (a.k.a. mani/pedi), get a massage (which sounds really good right about now), or exercise. As you can imagine, I don't get much time do spoil myself but I also make it one of my lowest priorities. Boo me! Well, that is about to change folks cause this girl is signed up for and has officially started Power Yoga! Crazy me didn't really know what Power Yoga was before I showed up for class this morning but I figured what the hell! I, now know what the term Power Yoga means and my body will thank me (I hope). Basically, I went into this heated room for an hour and 15 minutes and did a lot of poses that are named after animals. I am a very good dog in case you were wondering :-) I worked up a good sweat, I mean how could you not in a room that was upwards of 85 degrees to start and found muscles, I didn't know I had. So, yoga is now on my Friday morning agenda. Go Downward Dog Go!
