Exams

Well, that's self explanatory.

Creativity: I've been continuing the drawing challenge, though I did miss a few day. I'll just have to draw them when I have free time. The projects also seems to go along well. I know a lot more about Arduino now (compared to how I start; I still am bad) and I think I can start to write the basic codes. I need to make a chart to kind of understand which commends I'll use, though. I think this'll be a pretty simple code, so it's bound to have problems which I plan to fix as I go.

Activity: Yeah, I haven't been exercising much with all that's happening. There was the 5k last week, which I forgot to write about. I finished it at 38 minutes, which is a good time for not running for a while (in any opinion). It was fun, since it was my first 5k.

Service: There are still kids that go to our math class. I'm happy. Though I think they're bored of solving papers. I hope to play some competitive group games with them next week or so.

This was an unproductive week I guess. Let's hope that things escalate as time goes by.

The exam week is coming

You know, the exam week that you normally need to study beforehand to pass? Apparently it starts this week, contrary the OLD program I looked into which said it started a week later. WELL, long nights of cramming, here we go.

Creativity: If you noticed my creativity section is all over the place. That's because I see something and I instantly want to do it. This week's inspiration was drawing. I've found a drawing December challenge in Tumblr and currently am on day 4. To tell the truth, my drawing skills have shown improvement since I started the challenge. Either that or I never realized how much it boosted up since 4 months ago
.


Activity: Since I didn't really worked out last week, I took this week's exercises a bit easier. I also signed up for a Mersin's 5km run for the 11th of December. Still, with my still ongoing knee pain and not being able to run because of it for the past 2 weeks, I don't think I'll show a really good performance. I'll just try my best.


Service: Teaching the kids went a little easier and boring this Thursday since most of them didn't come. I hope this is something temporary. I don't think I scared the kids away, though they might've thought I was a terrible teacher and left. I just hope not. Otherwise, this week's Bookmobile was to a really small school consisting of around 24 students, all really excited to learn English. Their enthusiasm kind of surprised me but also made me happy. It's not everyday when kids want to learn something this much.

In short this week went ok. It would've been better if I at leased studied for my exams, but we have to do with what we have.
