Since I still have to recover for about a week, meaning almost no laptop, limited phone use and minimum concentration strain, I decided to do some mindless folding practice involving tesselations.

I managed to fold both a hexagon and a square 64 times in all directions. Both models are from 1 A4 paper each

After finishing I decided to use them to make two design, they are both extended versions of models from a book: Origami tessellations - awe-inspiring geometric designs by Eric Gjerde

Here are some mid steps:

(nothing much about this one, I just do lines starting with middle going outwards)

(my favorite part is when there are simultaneous pinches, seeing the folds fall into place)

This is the first part, after that just goes pushing down parts into triangles.

Since I'm a very hyper person, staying in bad and not being able to do stuff is horrible, only pain I have left is in my neck, other than feeling very sluggish I'm fine.
To be honest, when I wrote my previous post I didn't really know much about the situations, all I knew was that I had the worst injuries and was the only one in the hospital. The photos and details afterwards were honestly terrifying, to think I was sandwiched between two **** who shouldn't even have a license for something like this. One was rash and indecisive while the other completely irresponsible and inattentive. We were extremely lucky in this terrible coincidence.
Taking it easy for a bit hope to do more crochet since it's also relaxing and requires little to no concentration.

Also after a bit of reading I got a blue light filter and dim app which helps a lot,eyes are less bloodshot and way more relaxed, I'll find something for my laptop when I'll be able to use it.

Ps. My sister made a long post about the car accident since she doesnt have complete amnesia unlike me,still pretty hazy though. So if anyones interested https://steemit.com/freewrite/@kristyglas/thecaraccidentnophotos-minorinjuries-ujkmjkv8k7
Thanks for reading and your good wishes :)
