We had our last class at noon, where we had to give our final presentation. At the end of the presentation, Dr. Mohammad asked us a question, but I was unable to answer it. I felt immediately sad and ashamed.

Ultimately, Dr. Mohammad gave us a score of 13/15. He is a very kind person, but in that moment, I felt like I had disappointed him.

These last two days have been genuinely tough. I feel like I have many shortcomings and a lot of studying that I need to do.
