I have found it a lot easier to start directly on the practice problems and then, if I get stuck on a specific type of problem, I will go back and watch that video. This way I can clearly see where I am going wrong because I am actively looking for it. Otherwise I sometimes just space out and take notes. So I think it all works out well in the end. Now I can just take a math class online for credit if I need to and ace it like a pro. Show be awesome. I mean I passed number theory… and that was really really hard. As in confused in class every day kind of hard. There were only a couple days where I knew what I was doing. Those days where awesome.

I learned a lot of interesting fact about cancer today. A lot of “did you know that…?” kind of facts. So of them do not really connect in my mind. For example, walking can decrease a person’s risk of breast cancer by 25 percent. I know that walking can, and does, do amazing things for the human body. But I guess to me cancer is one of those diathesis-stress  kind of illnesses. If something triggers it to happen in your body then it is going to happen no matter what. And most cancers are genetic so there is a very large chance that it will happen. But I guess what this statistic is saying is that walking can reduce the occurrence of the trigger for breast cancer.

I was looking up some more cancer facts online and one place I found said that multivitamins increase the risk of cancer and heart disease according to some recent studies. There was not a link to any studies so I do not really believe this. However, I have heard that some parts of multivitamins just go straight through your system and do not really help. But that might not have been from a reliable source either.
