Below is just some random thoughts. It’s very much just ADHD brain channel flipping. No organization. Kinda like a mini diary entry. Just brain dumping. I think my Ritalin hit me pretty hard today. Feel free to ignore this. It’s nothing interesting. lolololololololololololol
I’m sure everyone knows that I was recently diagnosed with ADHD. I’m not super quiet about it. But lately I’ve been doing more research into the neurodivergent community and coping mechanisms.
I honestly can’t wait to take next semester off from school. I think it’s going to be a great chance to get to know my crazy brain. I’ve already become obsessed with the “How To ADHD” Youtube channel. She’s wonderful. I just wish she had more content.
I’m not super excited to work full time, though. But also money. So...
I need as much money as I can get before we move to Oregon in May.
On the bright side, I’m gonna get my Personal Trainer certification, so I don’t have to do Massage Therapy full time. Don’t get me wrong, I love my job as an LMT, but it really takes a toll on your body. I’m glad I’m getting into fitness training now. It’s made my job a whole lot easier. I can tell a difference for sure. I have (slightly) more energy. And I can look at myself in the mirror without thinking bad thoughts (most of the time). But it also feels like I’ve gained a lot of strength. I don’t feel as tired at the end of a 12 hour work day like I used to. I als feel like I’m not exerting as much strength to perform the same amount of work in each massage session. I think my clients notice the difference to.
I still want to be more fit before I get an actual job as a personal trainer. I don’t know if that’s just my lack of self-esteem talking, or not. But I feel like I would have a hard time picking up clients if I don’t have the body for it. I’m almost there, though. I just need a little help. Maybe I’ll get my own trainer when I have enough money from working full time.
Bleh! Today was a pretty productive day. I finished getting the gist of my ASL final written. It doesn’t quite flow yet, but I have the main ideas. I think it’s due on Thursday, so I don’t have a whole lot of time left. But I think it will be okay. It’s pretty meta, in that, it’s a story about how I love to procrastinate and how I never learn my lesson.
I’m still really dreading looking at my PHIL 101 class. I know I’m going to fail. But I might be able to squeak by with a D if I apply myself these last 2 weeks. I’m NEVER taking a humanities class like that online again. Math/science online is fine. But trying to hold an active discussion forum style is just so dull. Plus the reading is so dense. I’ll just retake it when I get to WOU.
If you made it to the end of this brain dump, I have one question for you. Why? You must have no time on your hands. I have to go to class now. Peace!
