Stop wasting your time 

Invest it in yourself

today has not been good. i’ve been so exhausted emotionally wise i just could not concentrate today at all. i was doing okay in the morning then by the 3pm slump hour i was sooo not up to it at all. terrible timing too because i have two tests next week where i need to learn literally loads. like a ridiculous amount. i was supposed to fo to bed early, but now it’s past midnight and i’m not in bed early. bad idea. need to stop being an idiot.

sorry for not posting, i have been studying — the only slacking done is not taking photos and not having anything to post lol. got the whiteboard out today, decided to try something different to keep me going insane. but good news — i got an offer from exeter for marine bio which is my firm uni choice, and i’m sooo happy! i literally am so excited but the thought of actually sitting my exams makes me feel ill. someone pass me the brown bag they always conveniently have lying around in movies so i can throw up

27/11/2023 || Day 113

Remember when I said that I felt under the weather in my last post? Lol, guess who got Covid? This was my 2nd time getting it and it honestly wasn't as bad as the first time, and it was a lot more chill compared to the cold I had in early October. However, I did use it as an excuse to stay in bed and not do any programming (though I did manage to do some LeetCode to keep up with my schedule). I'm mostly bummed about having to miss my ASL class for that week, but I'm recovered and excited to go this week!

LeetCode

Like I said, I did some LeetCode questions. I did one on Thursday, Friday, and now today, and honestly the thing that I'm realizing is that when you print to standard output (i.e. for debugging), it'll slow down the performance of your result. So if it shows you only beat 5% of other users solving the problem in the same language, check to see if you have any lines that are printing to stdout and delete them. That'll speed up your solution.

Frontend Mentor REST Countries - Log #4

I decided to spend some time on this project today after neglecting it for nearly a week, and I got some serious progress done! I think all that's left to do is style the specific country page properly (for desktop and mobile) and do some string manipulation for the search function. Other than that, I think I got it working!! I'm also really proud of the search function, where you start to type letters and countries that include that substring will show up. It's helpful if you don't know the exact spelling of a country name.
