Schoolwork.

Is the world ending? I haven't had a hiccup in my school work once this week. That's pretty...insane. Usually there's SOMETHING I do wrong. But nothing has! Could this be a blessing from God? I'll just have to wait and see. There are still several days for this to go terribly wrong.

Don't you hate it when you're school work is going perfectly, because you know you're defiantly forgetting something. xD I think I remembered everything. I hope I did. Aw, well. Fingers crossed!

On to more important topics!

I've been going to Physical Therapy this week. I guess I should give you guys a fill in. About five to six months ago, I started having back pain. I went from being able to touch my nose to me knees to barely being able to bend my back.

After going to the doctors, being poked and prodded, I was told to spend time almost every day with warm moisture on my back. I did that for about a month, but it didn't help. In fact, the pain got worse. At one point it kept me up till 2 in the morning. My mother decided I needed something different and took my to the doctors again.

They still didn't know what was wrong with me. So, they sent me to the physical therapist, who thinks I've simply been straining my back in dance and at work, since I have no injury to connect my back pain to. Their goal is to strengthen my core muscle.

It's been a lot of fun to me! I've always liked working out and knowing that having better core muscle will help me in dance makes it ten times better. And because of dance, when I do any of the ball work outs, I have good balance on the ball.

My posture will also be improving! It not only makes my back feel better, but I also look a little more on the confident side. This. Is. Wonderful. xD

Maybe being a Physical Therapist wouldn't be too bad of a job, no? I'll add that to my mile long list of things I might want to be.

State of the Arts

I'm reading a book called State of the Arts by Gene Edward Veith JR. It's for school, which made me automatically put it into the 'probably cool, but I won't understand it' category.

I'm proud to say that I understand and it and love it. I can't look at art the same anymore! I'm only a couple chapters in, but still, I'm finding it amazing. If it wasn't for the stupid research papers, I'd really like art class. I'm an artsy girl, but I hate research papers. I hate a lot of things about school. I also like a lot of things about it too. 

I'm loving Biology and Logic, but not Art History because of all the projects we have to do. Hey, it's what I have to do for an education. Hahaha! 

Anyway, the book is truly awesome. I can understand all of it; that's a huge plus. And it's so...informative. And I feel so smart now. xD It gives you a new way too look at all the art you see. From the art in a restaurant to the paintings in a museum. My class should be going to an Art Museum. We're suppose to be able to identify any artist work, the time period and what style it's in by the end of the semester. I hope I can do it. I would really like to be able to do things like that. Next semester it will be music that we study and we're going to have to do the same thing.  

Sadly, I have to get back to doing Art History that I don't like. =|
