After one month....
My short semester is over!!!!!!
I can finally say goodbye to that one subject that's been dragging me from continuing my studies.
AlhamduLillah, my works have been turned in, though not all have been graded. Looks like I'll just have to wait for the results.
Here's to hoping my future grades will be better with this burden out of the way.
In about two more weeks, I'll enter a new semester. From the way my seniors described it, looks like it'll be even more hectic than the last semester.
Hard to believe I'm entering my third year already. It felt like I just entered campus the other day and was accepted into my faculty sometime after.
I had a total of 10 tasks to get done in about a month's time. I haven't gotten the 3D structures back, but these are 4 out of the 6 2D visual composing tasks (click to enlarge, if you wish ^_^) :
A batik-tracing task; basically enlarging and re-coloring an already-made batik. 40x40cm with poster paint.
Texture; making a visual composition out of magazine cutouts, mozaic-style. 40x40 cm with magazine cutouts. Unfortunately misplaced and got rather wrinkled before I turned it in. Not exactly a good one :(
Space and shape; composing the shapes and colors to give the illusion of room. 40x40 cm with poster paint. Could've been better if I hadn't accidentally splattered water on it..
Insects; in this case, wasps. 30x40 cm with poster paint. Just about my favorite among them, since it turned out pretty good :)
The climate's changing again, from the rains to the dry. Which means flu season is here again, and I'm not an exception.
My nose has been leaking like a bad faucet and my throat feels like it's been bitten by a mosquito. It feels like my body temperature's a bit warmer than usual lately, as well.
My mom's been checking up on me through the phone more frequently than usual. I can't blame her, though. My great uncle just died on Thursday from internal bleeding in his brain. It's only natural if she became more worried about her kid living in a different island. Hearing me cough, sniffle and talk to her with a raspy voice through the phone didn't exactly help..
My great uncle was a very kind person. He had a great sense of humor and was always very nice to everyone. His reputation as a doctor was pretty well-known back in my town, since he, like my grandfather, worked in several clinics in and around town.
He performed many surgeries with my grandpa, and I know he did several alongside my aunt and uncle. As far as I know, he also taught up and coming doctors at a university, too.
He first went into a coma about a month ago, when he fainted all of a sudden. It took quite a long time for him to be rushed into the ICU no thanks to a certain indecisive aunt of mine..(not that I blame her, but as a doctor herself and seeing that she's the head of a hospital, I'd expect her to at least have the brains to give him the first aids he needed!!) The other doctors discovered internal bleeding in his brain, and about one month after, the area of the bleeding became wider, thus corroding his brain. They had no choice but to take off his life support by then.
I pray Allah SWT will give him guidance in his journey, and whatever wrongs he had committed in his lifetime be forgiven. Despite his faults as a human being, I will always remember him as a warm and kind person. Always greeting me whenever he passed by, making others laugh, and never gave up in treating his patients.
