Today was the first day I went to the gym and studied at the same time! lol! I have 4 modules recorded on my phone and listened to three of them while on the treadmill:). Sounds boring, I know. And to be truthful...it wasn't all that exciting. But what I am happy about is finding new ways to get in the cardio I need because being a student is a VERY sedentary lifestyle and was still able to at the very least have the information I need to study coming through my ear buds. (although I think I would have liked some upbeat music more!).
Working out and studying...not sure it will work but I feel like I am accomplishing more with this multi tasking. Getting a little innovative with my homework! Lol!. I have 19 days until my certification exam and in those 19 days I plan to get a lot of cardio to help get my brain working and a lot of focused and organized studying because I WILL PASS THIS TEST ON THE FIRST TRY!! Chemo brain or no chemo brain....I will do this! So please say some prayers my work out / study routine helps!! And just incase anyone is wondering...the gym is not the only place I study for the test:). My couch and dinner table are also places I study with classmates quizzing me now and then!
Ok, this very random and babbling blog post shall end with this final thought. It is CRAZY what I am finding makes me happy! Lol! Studying is no fun, especially with my absolutely retched chemo minted memory, but the fact that I feel so motivated to do the best I can in this field (including studying) is pretty amazing to me! It feels good to feel motivated!!!
After 15 years of trying to finish my undergrad, I spent the week before finals in and out of the ER. During finals I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. I graduated Magna Cum Laude the next weekend from Western Michigan University. I am now blogging about my experiences of fighting cancer & living life after in hopes of being able to help others.
