My Current Plan
So as of right now, I am completely ok and making a fantastic recovery from this traumatic brain injury. Considering everything I've been hearing and researching into brain injuries, I am incredibly lucky.
Putting my optimisum aside for just the sake of being able to generate quality content to talk about, I am pretty frustrated with my very slow progress on piano though. Although I did learn how to play my first jazz song ever! I can play Autum Leaves now, which after I heard it by Keith Jarrett, I've been wanting to learn it. I do look forward to the day I can seriously start to pursue Chopin again. I am very patient now though, much more than I ever was before this. I am doing great with my physical fitness, probably better than any other time in my life.
If you have noticed on my portfolio I have finally made my way around to creating the calculus section I'd been wanting to make since I first created this site. It is going to be a long work in progress though, which is perfectly fine with me. I mean, I consider this my material for my first set of lecture notes on math if I ever make it to being a teacher. That goal is quite a ways off for me though. I still have to finish my graduate degree this fall in mathematics. I am really hoping that goes well. I did take a college algebra course at ivy tech in madison, just to see if I was close to ready to attend college again. I receieved a 94% though! I did quite well in there. I loved the material too. I had never learned about rational zeros before this! I was also very happy to learn decartes law of signs. I am always happy to discover something by a philosopher in math.
I do plan on trying to teach english in China for my first serious job after I graduate. I do want to learn Mandarin, and I plan on taking it for my foreign language for my math degree. I tried to teach it to myself at first, and I do want to return to trying on my own again but, I'd really enjoy a partner to speak to that could possibly correct me and to see if they can comprehend what I am trying to say. I have tried a little talking to some of the people that work in Hong Kong Kitchen, and a few girls I've met on okcupid. So far it seems like I am doing alright on my own but some of the words got so difficult to understand and pronounce I gave up.
