This will be the day we've waited for.

It's time to make my dreams HAPPEN. 

Trello board: organize and clean up.

Art: do not skip a single day of Drawabox, and get more serious about the 50% rule, plus finish the Pixar in a Box series. Let's make some fun digital paintings or colored pencil artwork. If they suck, whatever, I'll redo them when I'm good. 

School: Today I will do deep learning and GPT2 and GPT3 training for CS 673, getting in my hours for the week, plus I will take a look at the readings. 

Additionally, I will restart the TPED club for this semester. The film started so aggressively this round that I got completely thrown off. 

For film: today, I will figure out how to make particles stick to an object. Additionally, I will try to create an animation with an alembic, and see how to generate particles from that, because I couldn't get it working yesterday -- and stepping through it myself may help. 

LD: It would be nice to rest for a bit in the afternoon -- a quick nap hopefully with an astral projection attempt. Plus, I need to actually make time to enjoy my life, so I will play a bit of games and watch a show or two. A bit of time spent in imagination before bed, even just 10-15 minutes, would also be lovely. 

Music: I need to practice daily so I'll run through all 3 today (clarinet, piano, and singing, but focusing on clarinet primarily) 

Coding: got to run through some algorithms, got to GET THROUGH THIS MATH UNIT BY LIKE WEDNESDAY, then got to figure out if I should prioritize IT or CS stuff next. Got to finish Cracking the Coding Interview and jump to the Leetcode challenges on one of the Discords I most recently joined. 

Writing: If I don't read and write daily, I'm never gonna get published, so that'll have to happen today as well. Just wish it was warm out so I could read on my hammock and write on my chair, out on my balcony...But no it's 24 degrees because it's freaking January. </3 I wanna go back to California

Other stuff: laundry, ironing, and I will at least clean the restroom. I will need to cook but I actually completely forgot to buy dinner food -- I think I have some orange chicken and rice in my freezer though so I guess that's what I'm getting. :V

But I still have church, a walk, and Come Follow Me study PLUS reading 2 chapters of the BoM before I call home tonight, PLUS I have to get to church early to set up the webcams for Zoom or whatever which, I'll admit, I haven't had much time to figure out. Also, organizing my Trello board takes forever, but without it I end up forgetting everything. alk;jfa;sdklfjasdkl;ghasrg;arseioljld;klajsdfAAUGH

I also just realized that I have two lists of personal projects I'm trying to complete and I can't remember which one is more accurate. -_-

Life is filled with tall orders in this reality and it's kind of annoying. Good thing I am passionate about what I do but it is hard to avoid the constant feeling like you are always behind on everything!

Unleashing my inner Disney Princess ✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧ at the 2024 Disney Princesses Half Marathon

TL;DR it was amazing and perfect  and we are going to make this an annual tradition. I may edit this with photos later, but I'm probably going to forget.  Recently, I spent 5 wonderful days donating my dollarbucks and soul to the evil mouse in Orlando. I did it for the Disney Princess Half Marathon.  Just look at that happy little alligator musician. He's so CHONKY. It's adorable. I love him. How could you NOT run a half marathon for him when he's cheering you on?  (My dad says it's weird to say the word "adorable" as a man, which makes zero logical sense and obviously means I need to use that word as often as possible. I will also continue to wear my rings and maybe I'll start flashing my pink protein shaker. Just to cause a little discomfort, because it's funny.)  I haven't seen the movie yet actually so idk if the gator is a major character or not. But JUST LOOK AT HIM.  My cousin and I had been planning a Disney trip, specifically centered

The 20-something types of Computer Science majors

I've been way too distracted with this blog lately, and I need to hurry up and start getting crap done. But...I've been dying to write this lol.  The advanced neckbeard A rare variety. When a neckbeard is forced out of his mom's basement and into college, he becomes an Advanced Neckbeard. You can always tell when he's coming, because you can smell him from half a mile away. He is very overweight, and wears shirts that are either plain or adorned with anime/gaming graphics. These shirts are either stained with sweat, Hot Cheetos, or something a little bit more, ah, suspicious . He is so socially unskilled that he makes everyone else in the major look normal. Age 30+, GPA at a 2.0 or just barely above it. Will never drop the major despite his lack of effort, because he simply doesn't care if he gets bad grades. In fact, he is probably highly intelligent, but his grades will never reflect that. Nevertheless, he will get a much higher paying job than a regular neckbeard

The Evenstar

I've never liked this world much.  Ever since I was a little kid, I always dreamed of going somewhere else. I created this alternate version of Earth that had everything and everyone that I loved, but with all these improvements to it. Magic was real. So were dragons. Dinosaurs hadn't gone extinct. Technology allowed people to fly. A network of glass corridors provided transport between this world and mine, snaking through streams of stars, galaxies, and lightyears of blackness.  And more than anything, I wasn't alone. I don't remember why I spent so much time alone as a kid. I really wish I did. All I know is that when I was in my  world, I always had someone by my side.  The feeling of being out of place here was overwhelming. It still is. That sense of not belonging, of longing for somewhere else, it has never gone away.  When I was in middle school, being bullied daily, I escaped to that world. The boys who tripped me and spit on me disappeared, replaced by tropical
