If you read this blog a few posts back, you know that I have horrible posture, especially to the chiropractor. Well, the man gave me some exercises to do, as I probably already wrote as well, so I have been attempting to fix my posture, but it's not an easy or painless process. I seem to have basically held my shoulders in a position that was too forward, making me all slumped, which is useful when I play games because I'm used to the pose, but it's not helpful or appealing to the eye, so my parents, my chiropractor, and I have all been trying to fix the posture! Holding my shoulders back is rather challenging, though, and can actually get painful at times. Hopefully, it won't take too long to fix this posture problem. Wish me luck!

Practicing tests will begin soon
I've been studying quite a bit for the SAT's and I feel a little more prepared for a test, so I think I'll be testing myself. I have some practice tests at home, so hopefully I'll do well. I feel like one of the more challenging parts will be using the new vocabulary I've learned in sentences. Along with that, this new vocabulary is a little more challenging to remember, but with continued use, I hope it will become easier to remember them.
Oh, and I found out that I was able to pull off a 3 on both AP bio and AP gov tests and get 5's in calculus BC and physics E&M! I was kinda disappointed about US history though, I only got a 4. Still, I guess history is sort of one of my weaker subjects so I'm not too upset. Overall, not too bad.

Back from Beach!
I haven't really done much that was worthy of being written about lately. So I decided to write a little summary thing of what happened this past week.
I started out by going to the chiropractor to check if I had anything wrong from the car accident. Luckily, nothing was injured too badly from the accident. On the other hand, already known to me, my lack of good posture had caused some bone misalignment, no biggie. The doctor suggested going at least 2-3 times a week for check-ups and whatnot. I was very close to laughing when I heard this. The chiropractor works in an area near Fairfax... I live about an hour away... I wasn't about to attempt that trip so often. Along with that, the lack of proper transportation that often during the week also prevented me from going there that often. After learning about this, the doctor instead made a list of exercises that I am now supposed to do everyday that range from reverse sit-ups to pulling on my neck with a towel. All these stretches are supposed to help with that changed that the chiropractor does whenever I go to visit.
Also this week, my family went to some meeting for senior pastors that the pastor of my own church apparently was attend. So, he allowed for the 전도사님's, which are sort of like pastors, I don't really know how that would translate, to go in his stead. It was a fun 3 days that we got to stay in Ocean City, although the majority of the first and third days were spent driving to and back home. Going to the beach and building things with sand, nothing fancy because I lack skills for building with that sort of material, and playing in the ocean was fun! I did spend some time in one of the youth group meetings, but I felt that this was more of a family bonding time, and I was also very tired in the evenings due to the usage of much energy from playing in the ocean. That doesn't really sound good. Perhaps fighting the unending waves of the ocean to get the a deeper section to achieve new levels of difficulty sounds better. I'm not sure. I have been working on my vocabulary and reading skills much more after hearing from my own dad, who previously had not said much about studying, that I should work on my skills over the summer. Also, I should be starting summer reading at this time. Gotta order some books tomorrow!

Traffic!
Today was fun, as we were headed to church in the morning, there was some random accident near Harper's Ferry which caused a very long line of cars that weren't moving. After about an hour, the car managed to get passed all the craziness and finally the car was accelerating at a higher speed than before. During this entire event, I had almost no idea what was going on because I had been listening to this podcast known as the "YogPod" and also playing Pokemon Black 2 at the same time. Sure, my parents were frustrated, but I was thoroughly enjoying my time in the car. It probably would not have been the same if I had been driving, of course, I would have probably felt very frustrated like my parents. I probably should pay more attention to things happening around me.
