today i:
survived 23 hours in the air !!
tmrws gonna be epic
i probably wonr get to post a scrap later so here’s one from istanbul airport !
today:
1. laptop was out for repairs again. when i got it back i spent a couple of hours experimenting with playground.tensorflow.org which was super fun :)
2. packing for asc end! (trying to not ping ppl 😭)
today i didnt work on anything :heavysob::
1. i was at the salon getting my hair braided for 8 hours
2. my laptop went to get some repairs (got repaired but came back with more issues :pf:)
uh so for now, here’s a pic of a cat which im seeing for the 2nd time in the span of 3 weeks
today i:
made jurnl sign in page :D (google sign in), sent one last batch of sponsor emails and called some + contacted teachers on linkedin + more maths
i am nolonger feeling sick which is awesome. i have a new idea ive been working on ! (the vines might or might not be there. to be on the safe side, on the coding end ill do it without them until i get a reply from the owner letting me know if i have permission to add them to the site)
another somewhat not so productive day since i didnt wake up feeling any better from yesterday :noooo: i got to see a doctor tho :) aside from that today was nice :D i also submitted some school work so i dont have to worry about physics work until december. for now enjoy this podcast episode i listened to today!
been feeling sick today so nothing major but i started learning a couple of sql stuff on frontend masters (shoutout github education pack lol) and i started thinking of some stuff i wanna make next week. rn im thinking journal so imma see how that idea goes.
i locked in last night and today and added a couple of stuff to hackadoro:
1. i made the data on the to do list save so when you reload the page its still gonna have your to do list stuff (localStorage for the win, probably just dont clear cache/cookies. i tried firebase but it just wasnt working out)
2. i added some convenience features like adding to do items w the enter button
3. changed the music a lil (just changed one song)
4. made the font smaller since it looked rlly weird on ms-edge with previous font size, same for spacing
5. did NOT change the logo nor did i change the bg :heavysob: i have no creativity so theyre gonna stay like that </3
6. made a readme
i think its ready for use now so ig im gonna ship it - link to the repo
today i tried to learn ab some backend stuff for hackadoro so no update ab it BUT i did make my terminal in a way i liked it! (also idk why my computer misses out on the A and calls me louis)
readable? probably not. swag? SO SWAG (inspo to do this from @/phthallo)
today:
1. internet was out for a solid amt of time so i went roaming around nairobi
2. when i got back i continued working on hackadoro. added some small features like a "total time spent" and break/work indication i still do not know what i wanna do w the bg + logo. i also made it live (but i will warn you that it might not work the best just yet!). heres the repo too :) i also started thinking ab the backend stuff which im not so sure how im gonna work it out but it was nice seeing what kinda options i got
added music (why is radiohead there? awesome question. idrk either, ill add more focus music soon lol), added a todo list, decided the session stats might go into settings or something and projects will be a selectable feature or something :ptoday i:
made lots of pomodoro site progress (i intend to change the logo thingy soon, as well as add an actual bg for now those are just gonna be a placeholders, ill also add more sections on the right soon) :) + did some minor tweaks on the plane hackathon proposal w the help of @/Pixelglide (he added a new section!! :)) )! + continued experimenting w pixel art and trying to get the hang of it
lol i lost my streak (fr this time) last night for some reason but ngl im not too bothered by that :) ive been thinking alot about what i wanna do with what i code bc alot of what ive been workinf on doesnt rlly have much of a purpose (im sorry rizzlergpt), its just code that does stuff. so my goal with high seas is to make projects that can be useful for other people while also learning new things. anyways enough of me yapping (on scrapbook of all places :heavysob:)
today:
i started off with working on a pomodoro timer (this is gonna be my first complete react project lol). i wanna have features that can make it better for programmers :) so i think im gonna work and complete this for the next 2 weeks and see how it goes :) i also started working on a list of other stuff id wanna make that have the same kinda goal. i also started learning some pixel art since for my pomodoro timer i wanna add some orpheus art there
worked on the counterspell nairobi site and made a PR :)
didnt code but worked on some FD stuff & watched acon on gh universe :D (and saw my scraps on gh universe lol)
its currently 00:21 and i just remembered i forgot to post a scrap (rip my streak:notcool:)(my streak did NOT die somehow). yesterday i:
1. met a prospective sponsor
2. did lots of physics work, this was super fun
3. finally got ahead enough in my robotics class so i dont need to worry ab it for the next 3 weeks
4. prepped for some work stuff i have tday
5. changed the name for the evoque ysws to evoke lol
today i worked on :
1. USD-fying the counterspell budget
2. not-so-secret secret ysws stuff (evoque)
3. arranging meetings with sponsors (HEARD BACK FROM MICROSOFT FINALLY!!!)
4. maths :notcool:
5. speedrunning robotics since i couldnt get an extension when i'll be going for ascend
made a website that lowkey ate :P its not done yet.
did some stuff for an unofficial ysws (will show once i get home) at a halloween event rn!
made some few changes on my emu but nothing significant for now :noooo: i did however work on some stuff for a ysws :D
very busy today with school and some robotics work but on the brightside no assignments tmrw :) tmrw i plan to continue my emulator :D (image of one of the robotics assignments i did today, its rlly weird but interesting working on non-robot js on DDE)
i finished the website for my spooky boba. i'll try to make some improvements sometime soon but i think i like it a decent amt now. today i also went to the office and also met a sponsor which went decently well! i worked on some more budget still and did a bunch of school assignments. i also had a meeting with my progress manager (that's my homeschool's fancy name for homeroom tr) to change my maths schedule and i rlly like my maths schedule now!
nearly done w my site for the spooky manor, i think i can finish it by tmrw, just need to add the links and prettification :D github.com/v1peridae/spooky-manor
did lots of maths work tday and worked on my spooky manor site a little today, ive realised i feel more productive if i try to get the general idea functional first before adding all the other coolsies and making the format prettier github.com/v1peridae/spooky-manor :)
today's been pretty interesting:
1. I taught(?) someone how to do scene kid makeup & hair (the question mark is bc i mightve overloaded them w info lol)
2. I worked on part of the keyboard for the emulator
3. i also found out theres a rock climbing place 10 mins from me so im gonna check that out tday or tmrw
today i worked on:
1. an assignment on DDE for my robotics class
2. started working on my chip-8 emulator but i switched tutorials since i wasn't rlly sure where to start. i think im getting the idea so i might go back to the one i was using to see if it makes more sense :)
3. contacting a boba shop for discounted boba for counterspell since we're getting like 100
today i was sponsormaxxing (this infact didnt go as great is i hoped it would bc i rlly didnt know what to say :nooo:). i also did some stuff for counterspell nairobi and i started learning how to make an emulator w this super cool tutorial.
made some css for my scrapbook (except idk why its not working on my scrapbook :noooo:) this is how its supposed to look like in theory
today might be the final no code day for now.
1. i met with a sponsor for #C07NWHUHD63| today also sent out some more emails. learnt that if its a small company, reach out to the ceo, a bigger one, reach out to marketing and sales (that’s what been working for me).
2. i also did lots of maths and physics work today. im rlly happy im getting ahead.
3. learnt a bunch about architecture all because of a building i saw
4. wanna work on my scrapbook css by tmrw + i wanna start deciding on a side of tech to focus on since some chunk of the cause my burnout was from focusing on wayy to many things that are all wayy to different.
day 4 of no code. today was a semi no-code day, i didnt do any coding but i learnt about it in my robotics class. i also did lots of maths work and econ work today for assignments i wanna submit early (i rlly wanna clear out my schedule by submitting everything wayyy earlier). i also got some tickets for an SMEs convention (im mostly only gonna use that to network for #C07J6TP1LLB|). counterspell related, i got to work a lil bit on the budget, if you wanna check it out its here :)
day 3 of no code, i was super busy today but managed to make this :D
day 2 of no-code week:
I wasnt home for some part of the day (i was very much dying in the heat lol) but I got back a few hours ago and I made some more changes to counterspell nbo's poster concepts and social posts, i also sent some emails to sponsors. gonna work on a sign up form tmrw
day one of code-free week was rlly productive:
1. i made a proposal for hq for an event. never really done anything like this
2. i got venue confirmation and met some likely sponsors. learning how to speak to sponsors has been super cool
3. i gor back into journaling :) pic of some stickers ill be using on my journal (cant do actual journal entry pic)
DDE today again, i am having some major coding burnout :noooo: so i'm gonna be taking a break from coding for the next week or so (i'll still update my scrapbook w all the cool stuff im learning outside coding)
DDE grind bc Dexter is such a cool moving arm, yall should try DDE sometime!
didnt code but i went to check out venues for counterspell and hackea :)
ive been so locked it tonight and did some more social media work for counterspell. im gonna continue tmrw morning to try to fix my programming lang bc i cant seem to find a fix for it yet :noooo:
I added blinking to the website as well as making the homepage (github.com/v1peridae/spooky-manor) + i made changes to a poster concept for counterspell
spent most of yesterday and today working on this for counterspell as well as making some minor changes on my spooky boba design. i'm gonna spend the weekend working on spooky boba as well as trying to make my programming lang work. ik github misses me so i'll try to focus on coding and fix stuff up this weekend :noooo:
design progress :D
day 2 of working on the design :)) (its lowk scary so i just blurred out the first part until i ask if its ok to use)
started working on inspo for my spooky boba manor project
sooo i scheduled a bunch of emails today using the template! ill go back to coding tmrw i promise
no coding today but i spend the day learning ab hackathon planning and adding locations for counterspell nairobi
spent the day trying to figure out this :noooo:
added lists :)
fixed up functions and added strings :))
not much coding today, still trying to fix the error :noooo:
today was probably the hardest day of making fjaril, i added functions tho i messed up a bit so im trying to get them to work :) im also thinking of doing a name change and call it something diff from fjaril
Part of yesterday and today I worked on adding logical operations and fixing a rlly huge error I had (this took up most of my time). I also gave it a name, fjaril which is Swedish for butterfly and I worked on part of the read me.
today i made the guestbook and this is how it is c:
its been a while since i lastly made a post but i have been working on my website little by little (took a break b/c i had a competition). i removed some sections and added some others and made a few more minimal changes to how it looks :) tomorrow im going to fix my about me and edit some stuff on the other pages :)
