Stay sharp

This is a calculator at work. I mean I have a different scientific calculator for things I do for work. This calculator cannot cover my tasks. I bought this calculator two weeks ago. If you take a closer look at it, you know what makes this special. If you press a specific button, the mental mathematics drill starts. As you can see, it will show you an easy math problem, and you are supposed to solve 100 problems. You type the answer as fast as you can and finish 100 problems. It only takes 2-3 minutes. That's it. According to Professor Kawashima at Tohoku University, this drill helps you be sharp. After the age of 25, your brain cells will respond slowly and some people struggle from dimentia. You tend to forget things easily, and you take much more time to solve something you used to solve quicker. That's right. The brain ages as well. However, just like the rest of our body, the brain can be trained to stay younger, too. There are best seller books to train your brain as well. So this is a calculator using the same concept. The efficient way to keep your brain sharp is to work on this thing as the first thing in the morning when you get up. I do 100 problems on the calculator when I get up and I do another 100 problems at work. I've been doing this just for two weeks. But guess what! I think I can notice the difference. It's really important to keep my skin young but I need to be sharp, too! If you see me punching the calculator in the morning at work like a crazy person, that's me. :-) I need to keep myself sharp to win the debate with this stupid Eastern European. :-) MATH ROCKS! Happy Tuesday!
