Bad Day. Prayers Badly Needed

Bloody Red Books

Done with 4 exams, 3 more to go. The first day was good. I'm confident with my answers in Electronics and Computer Networks. I guess studying for 3 days straight was a good idea. Unlikely, the second day (today) isn't really good. I slept late last night to study Materials Science. I thought I've reviewed everything, but when I saw the test paper, everything just fell off. Mental block attack, hate it. We took an hour break to talk about that dreadful exam and for a last minute review in Mechanics. At first, I thought I did good in Mechanics, but after the test I heard my classmates' answers and they were all different from mine. I realized that I was very careless that I omit some of the details in the problems, resulting to wrong answers.

Moving on, we received bad news earlier during our Mech exam:

Prof.: Your Electromagnetics exam (scheduled tomorrow) is postponed.

Class: YEEESSSSS! YEHEY! YEEEEEY!

Prof.: May sakit si Sir Bangles.

Class: Aawwww. :( 

Honestly, we were a bit sarcastic. Everyone's rejoicing that it's rest day tomorrow. Of course we thought it was just an ordinary fever or something so we continued with our exams. After the exam, we learned that Sir Bangles was rushed to the hospital and he's in the Intensive Care Unit. The reason why he collapsed is still uncertain but it is likely due to aneurysm (a dilation in the arteries of the brain). We were so shocked because my classmates even saw him earlier with his usual high spirit and he was very masigla. We came to the hospital even if we knew that visitors are not allowed. We saw the head of the ECE department and she told us that Sir Bangles will undergo a major brain surgery. She added that Sir Bangles just had his CT scan and that the operation is very crucial so we really need to pray for him.

Sir Bangles is probably the jolliest and most approachable Professor in the department. He is very close to us because he was our adviser last semester. It's just so sad to think that a young, energetic guy like him is undergoing this kind of challenge. He really needs our prayers right now. Please do him a favor and add his successful operation and speedy recovery in your prayers. Thank you very much. I know he can make it with God's help.
