I’m back

Guess I should write an update, more for myself than anyone else. It’s been a year since I last used this account, since I shattered my arm into a million pieces. It fully healed two months ago with the exception that I now have a metal plate and six screws in my arm. Because of this, my fitness-related goals have gotten a second wind. I’m determined to become stronger this summer, especially in my arms. Specifically, I want to have super badass pushup skills. I’m starting off with 100 knee push-ups 3x a week since I can barely do one normal push-up with proper form. When school starts again in the fall I have some friends that I’m going to go lifting with. Besides that, I really need to work on my cardio since I am going to start sparring again. It’s always harder to motivate myself to do cardio because the feeling of such high activity is harder to deal with I guess. 

On the academic side, after my internship last summer I decided grad school is probably the way to go. In addition there are some personal reasons why I don’t want to move yet, so I’m now trying to get into graduate school. I’ll be taking the GRE this summer and I just started studying for it. I’ll also be ramping up my research efforts in the fall and trying to connect with the professor I want to work with. This summer I was pretty happy to land an internship at the place where I eventually want to work, but it’s far from home and all my friends.

In terms of mental health, I was feeling pretty good for a couple months and decided to stop taking antidepressants. This turned out to be a terrible mistake, and it took a while for the meds to pick me back up. I feel better now, but of course my mental health still isn’t great, and it’s been affecting my motivation a lot. Although the semester is over, I still have to do some things to catch up before I can pass one of my classes.

Anyway, I don’t know how often I’ll be on here, but yeah, hi again.
