Oscar Niemeyer (1907 – 2012) was a Brazilian architect who is considered to be one of the key figures in the development of modern architecture. He is best known for his design of civic buildings for Brasília, a futuristic planned city built from scratch in the late 1950s to become Brazil's capital.

The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion is one of my favourite games of all time, surpassed only by Morrowind, and I've been planning for a long time to put together a feature with original artwork.

I did not get into the faculty I was aiming (and hoping) for. My results were very good, but there were enough applicants who had even better results, and there were few places. This of course changes my plans for the future; actually I don't know yet what will I do - either work for a year and retry next summer, or accept a place at some other faculty I applied at (and had good enough results for it) - nevertheless, I cannot say I'm too worried about what may come.

The Elder Scrolls has been my favourite game series since I first played TES3 Morrowind, and not much later, TES4 Oblivion. I find them the greatest RPGs ever created; you are in a vast fantasy land and can do pretty much anything - travel, explore, join guilds and factions, work, make pilgrimages, buy a house - while an epic storyline starts to unfold, in which you play a great part.

So, only two weeks remaining from school. We're now in the middle of term exams; going well acceptably so far. We'll have a week of holidays in early June, then a month-long session of final exams. I don't know how will I do, sometimes I feel I know nothing, but it's a bit late to worry now. Those will be followed by the university admission tests. Yeah, all this means that I will continue to be mostly offline for the next couple of months and I won't post any new photos or other art; though I'll check my mail every day or two.

Nothing much to report on my side; I haven't been online much these last weeks and I don't know if this will change - lots of things on my mind and on my to-do list lately, and I'm trying my best to keep up. Some competitions and more school tests are coming up soon, and I've got only three months left until the final exams... at least I'm still optimistic about those.

Another week passed, and not much has happened. Well, thinking back, a lot has happened, but nothing worth mentioning... school is dragging, we had some tests (some more are coming up), and I'm looking forward for the holiday one week from now. Winter weather has returned; it's been snowing for two days, maybe I will have the opportunity to make some new snowy photos.

Take care and all the best.

School is OK, we are slowly getting back into the swing of things. I also got back into my sleep routine, going to bed at 22:00 (although I sometimes stay up reading until moonhigh, or wake up in the middle of the night to write drown strange dreams) and eliminating the afternoon naps, which are a waste of daylight now when nights are already longer than days. Weather started to cool (it never goes over 30C anymore), but at least it is still clear; hope it will last.

Night all, and all the best for next week.

I uploaded some pictures I took last week, mainly in the Filaret neighbourhood.

You can still view them on fanfic.net though. ]]>
