![]() A test showed that his ligaments were “damaged and inflamed”. Based on a doctor’s recommendation, he’s been taking medicine and reducing his work hours. While working on the Webtoon he began experiencing pain in his wrist. Unfortunately, SIU updated the same blog post several weeks later in November with bad news. On October 19, 2020, a new post on SIU’s blog announced that he was coming back in mid-November and the exact Tower of God 486 release date would be announced soon. The announcement has been a long time coming. SIU’s health problems are not a simple cure Tower of God Official Trailer To celebrate The Return for the series on 16th May! /tliC8b2t67 (Thank you to Naver who has been patient with the hiatus and taking care of me) I didn’t even know so I was surprised before going to write here. (They sprung the chapter by surprise on me at 10:30. Have a peaceful and enjoyable night, and I’ll see you with the next week’s chapter.įor my readers, love you, stay healthy, and thank you _ _ Well then… I kept you guys waiting for a long time, but I once again ask you guys to enjoy my work as I close this post. I’ll let you know about that as I decide. Unfortunately, due to the multiple circumstances at play, I think it’s best that I reduce the channels I’m active on and focus on my work. I’m thinking I’ll simply make comments or just post on my other social media accounts. Probably from now on, there is a high possibility that I will not write blog posts after every chapter every week like before. But having you guys enjoy my work… the life of an artist can be so difficult sometimes.Īnyway, I made another long post after a comeback. ![]() Still, at least as an artist, I just want readers who waited to enjoy. It may be no longer the same as it has been 10 years ago, and sometimes rather than going for the best I can I just want to draw a comic. You may like the fruits of my efforts or you may not. As everything is changing around us in these times, I only have the uttermost respect for my many peers, seniors, and juniors who draw webtoons.Īlthough I prepared a lot of different things, like reducing break time and trying to come back as soon as possible, I feel very sorry for the readers who been waiting for such a long time. Of course, when you start serializing that has its own difficulties. (since wen…)Īctually, setting aside all those personal problems, when you are an artist on hiatus you will always have a sense of being frustrated as if something is clogged up somewhere. But this blog’s entire point has always been me complaining and lamenting things when I can’t on the main Webtoon. Now you may be thinking, why I’m I whining out of the blue right after coming out of a year-long hiatus. In fact, from around April, I was very busy. On top of starting work on the hard copies again, the preview manuscript quota increased from 3 to 4 chapters… so the amount of work further increased, accordingly. ![]() ![]() Some of the chapters I had drawn before were so old that I redrew them and there were also a few things I had to get ready. It was a conclusion that neither I nor the people around me understand well, but… Anyway, so I came back a little faster than expected. While undergoing more tests in various fields and finding more problems, I realized that full recovery may be much further away and much more unrealistic.Īs long as this is a serialization, and if the disease is difficult to fully cure, I thought it would be best to start preparing the serialization by coming back sooner, so… haha ![]() To be honest, my body hasn’t fully recovered as I wanted it to. In fact, I was originally planning on started working again around the end of June and returning after that. T he Tower of God series returned a little bit faster than the scheduled date. It turns out that SIU returned earlier than originally planned… and his health problems are not over! Although I may fall short, I hope you enjoy it,” SIU tweeted.Ī new blog post from SIU also provided more details on May 16, 2021. To all of you that’s been waiting I give my apologies and thanks.

For example, to determine the Return on Investment (ROI) one must have the COI (Cost of Investment) and the Net Profit. Many project selection formulas depend on data or information from other formulas. The PMP® exam could have questions with project comparisons as part of assessing the student’s knowledge of formulas, how they are calculated, and how to apply data from those formulas. Within a project selection process, project managers will leverage specific formulas. There will be a consistent project selection method to balance risk, investment, and potential return. ![]() Successful companies do not put budgets or resources behind every project no matter what. ![]() For Earned Value formulas, some have to be calculated first in order to get the numerical value needed to calculate other formulas.

PMP® exam prep for formulas includes work to memorize formulas but also time to develop an understanding of the math behind a formula, the purpose of a formula, and the role of a formula in project management. To earn a passing score, PMP® test prep experts give an estimation of at least 35 hours of practice questions and study, including time to practice the basic math skills needed to calculate PMP® formulas. There is no way to “cheat” the system as questions are administered via secure systems. These questions will require you to calculate a value, questions for using provided data and formulas to calculate an estimation, and questions that require math to use a formula for estimating value. You can expect to see questions on the PMP® exam that reference formulas. PMP® formulas are an integral part of Project Management. The PMI also oversees the Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification testing assessing candidates’ knowledge of standards, formulas, and tools within the practice of project management.

So definitely developing relationships with your advisors, and then also relying on your classmates for help. And then I have two advisors beyond that in the Black Studies department, Professor Loggins and Professor Bradley, and they’ve both been extremely helpful. I feel like I’ve been lucky because, like I mentioned, I’ve had Professor Vaughn as my advisor, and he’s worked closely with me throughout my time at Amherst … I’m taking his thesis writing class right now, so I work a lot with him. Developing a good relationship with your advisor has also been helpful. Q: Do you have any advice for students who are looking to start their thesis?Ī: Getting to read as much as you can, as early as you can, was helpful for me. That was incredibly interesting, and just getting to learn more about my own family has been really interesting. Right now I’m writing about the history of Black men in the military and she was able to detail my whole family’s history in the military going back to the American Revolution. For example, yesterday I interviewed my aunt who is a genealogist. Some of it’s really sad and heavy a lot of my topic I would say is very heavy generally, but getting to discuss some of these things with my family has been really interesting. Q: What was your favorite or most rewarding part of writing your thesis?Ī: Some of the discussions I’ve had by interviewing my family members brought up things that I don’t usually talk to my family about. That will leave until April to finish editing. And then hopefully, I’d be able to finish a third chapter and begin editing in the beginning of next semester. I’m about halfway through my first chapter and my goal is to have a completed first and second chapter by the end of the semester. My thesis right now is going to be three chapters, and I have the introduction done from that class. Q: What has the timeline for this project looked like?Ī: Like I mentioned, I was in Research Black Studies last semester and that gave me a loose introduction for my thesis. I took a class last fall, Research Black Studies, with Professor Cobham-Sander, and she was very helpful in starting this process, but it definitely takes a long time. Also, literary reviews are difficult because I need to map out the geography of my topic and where to place my work alongside other pieces in the field. So it’s just an infinite amount of reading, and I’m not the fastest reader, so it’s been really time consuming. I would say I have to read 400 pages for every page I write. Q: What has been the hardest part of writing your thesis so far?Ī: The amount of reading I have to do in order to get anything written has been difficult. I’m taking Law’s Classifications with Professor Brangan this semester where we had to write a research paper, which I’m able to use for my thesis, so finding a topic that’s been able to balance both my majors has been helpful. ![]() I’ve been able to use some of the research tools, and even research classes, to help develop my thesis.

One big upside has been that I get to talk a lot to my family. I figured if I was writing about my own family it would be hard to get bored by that. There are a lot of topics I would be interested in at first, that I would get bored with over a long period of time. Q: Why did you decide to write your thesis on this topic?Ī: I wanted to do something that I’d be interested in. My mother’s parents were both in the Black Panther Party, so I’m writing about how their lives were affected and how the people around them were affected by FBI repression. His thesis explores the ramifications of oppression within movements, with a specific focus on the Black Panther Party, which he has a familial connection to.Ī: My thesis is about the effect of repression on individuals within a movement, and I am focusing on the Black Panther Party.
