Last Ten Days of Ramadhan 1446 Varia

I wanted to do this post earlier but I delayed it in the hope of another post on Ketchup Spills first. I have already collected a large collection of reading materials for the intended post - they are on PT- Symmetry (something that I wanted to read for quite a long time). However, I have to prepare for my teaching this coming April. Hence, there is a problem of focus. With April being around the corner, I have to focus more on teaching preparation.

We are now in the last ten days of Ramadhan 1446. To many Muslims, this would be the period where Muslims should intensify efforts to do more ibadah (making it more difficult for me to focus). Not being in the best of health, I simply continue my normal pace. But I hope this meant something positive overall (which includes staying away as much as possible from social media). 


It seems that I will have a very short Eid holiday. I will begin teaching by the third day of 'Eid (depending on the official declaration this Sunday). In a way, this has upset the family's 'Eid plan. For this April semester, I will be teaching one same subject I have helped teach in the previous semester (Applied Calculus). But I will be teaching a new subject (in the same mould) which amalgamates Linear Algebra (mainly matrices) with Calculus. This will take more of my time on preparation. In addition to this, I will be handling tutorials as well (which is new). Given all of these, it will slow down my writing on the blogs (particularly the technical ones), despite I enjoy doing them. 

Just to prepare myself for going back to work, got myself a(n) (expensive) haircut, partly accompanying my son.



Let's see what happens the next few days.
