Doctors here

I was quite sick yesterday and guess what happened. My mom was trying to get me to visit the doctor, but no, all i needed was some rest. So, my mom's sister (She lives here) just called up a specialist doctor and told him that i'm having a fever and cold. OVER THE PHONE, he prescribed some tablets and asked me to take some rest and lots of water. After that, since he was a specialist and it's quite rude to ask him a lot of questions over the phone, she called another doctor to check the details of the medicines he presribed. The doctor asked for my age and stuff, and before the end of the conversation, the doctor even said "call back tomorrow, i need to check how he is doing, alright?" I was like wow! The 2 doctors gave a free consultation over the phone? That's rare. I was very touched.
Now for the sudoku: here are the pics:
Well in a sudoku, you have this 9x9 box, with 9 3x3 smaller boxes. What you do is to fill up the empty boxes such that every row,column and 3x3 box is filled with numbers 1-9 only, without repetition. For every sudoku, there is only one unique solution. i.e if you fill up a single box with a wrong number, the whole thing will be screwed. The first time i tried, i filled it up with random numbers and it became super-screwed- with this method, i couldn't even solve a simple one.
The method i'm using now guarantees that the numbers entered are correct. first, write into the boxes,

i was in the middle of filling up the possible numbers. Already, some boxes had only one possibility.

Here, i've finished filling up all the possibilites. Some already begin to emerge, but i got stuck at this point and was staring at this for half an hour. Then i came up with a new method of eliminating possibilities.very difficult to describe here.



Done!


Today is going to be my first lesson- they are going to give the materials and stuff, and may be teach some stuff.
