Better get buff before law school…

I had been having some pain in my rib cage/chest/arm area for about 2 weeks; after my car accident it seemed to have gotten worse. I decided to get it checked out by a doctor, so I went and they took x-rays to make sure everything was okay and then the doctor asked me, “What do you do for a living? Do you carry/lift heavy things?” Of course, I let him know that I am a law student that carries what feels like a 50 pound bag up and down 3 flights of stairs all day. Apparently, this is causing my pain and the muscles and overall area around my chest wall is inflamed as a result. Of course, my accident aggravated this more so, but still…who knew?!

Last night I went to yoga and it felt amazing, but I spent the last five minutes when you’re supposed to lay there and find your peace and center thinking about all the homework I had to do when I got home. Law school…it never leaves my mind; ever!
