#100 days of code

i had a good performance review today 😇 i'm on track for my goal to get promoted soon! and even if i don't, i can be satisfied with the good work that i've done, my positive relationship with my coworkers, and my managers' strong advocacy for me ☺️

🍓 breakfast

📚 read The Travelling Cat Chronicles

🧘‍♀️ meditated

🤸‍♀️ light pilates

👩‍💻 performance review meeting

👩‍💻 technical meeting

👋 team social

👩‍💻 project 🗃️ planning meeting

👩‍💻 ~coding focus time~

🥑 very late lunch that's basically dinner

🇨🇳 chinese lesson

🧠 psych readings (2x)

💌: i couldn't eat an actual lunch due to stomach pains 🥲 but i had a very lovely breakfast by the window, and it's the most important meal of the day anyway, right? 🥴

☕ day 1/30 study x code challenge

i'm considering taking a philosophy course at some point in my degree instead of more psych. if you've taken philosophy before, what did you enjoy most/least about studying it? 🤔

📈 study stats (30/5/30): 🍅🍅🍅🍅

🎒 school/cs50:

review as much psyc as possible (weeks 2-3) ✅

read flask notes + re-watch parts of lecture as needed (half) ✅ (why are frameworks so hard for me to understand?)

🩺 self-care: (note to the inner bully: yeah, so humans need a lot to sustain themselves. what about it?)

journal ✅

start-my-day routine ✅

physio exercises ✅

clean bathroom ✅

wind down ✅ (?) (idk if i know how to wind down anymore, i'm so used to doing stuff, even mindlessly stimulating stuff, until i drop 😣)

I couldn't sleep last night because my brain was so wired from programming for 7 hours during the day...

Frontend Mentor Browser Extension Manager - Log #3

I started the day with trying to change the colour of the logo when the user toggles dark mode. I tried to see if I can add a filter to only part of the image, but I couldn't. Now, because the logo and the "Extensions" text next to it are both in the same svg file, I ended up just duplicating the logo file and changing the colour of the text in one version to be white. Now, the logo's text changes colour with the dark mode toggle. The logic behind it is to check what the current theme is (i.e. "light" or "dark") and set the source of the image to the appropriate logo.

The rest of my coding session was getting the small details finished. I made the "active/inactive" extension toggle smaller, and made sure the text colour for the buttons matched with the reference, depending on the dark mode setting. That was a bit of a pain. I'm a bigger fan of figuring out the logic rather than the small CSS details.

Anyways, I think I'm done...? There wasn't really any specificity with the logic for this project, so I pretty much reset the conditions the user ends up changing when they hit the "All" filter (mostly so I don't have to refresh the page all the time). There are probably some small CSS stuff that I left out (i.e. making the filter buttons different sizes), but I'm calling it finished! (Now I can celebrate by playing Silksong!)

31.10.23 again ?

Hello! 😊

Today I did a project with HTML, JS and CSS. It is like a pixel art canvas, you can pick a color and draw some pixels.

I'm impressed with the reduction of time that I made the project, if compared with yesterday project I was I little faster today :)

I struggled a little when trying to make the dynamic size for the canvas and the click + holding event to draw the line, but after a lot of googling I managed to do it.

This project was so fun to make. I always got excited when saw it slowly taking form.

I also added some cool buttons style:

Now I have only one project left to finish the foundation path!

That's it, I also made some rust exercises on rustlings, but not too much.

Now I'm going to 🛌😴😴😪

12.22.23

i have started of this challenge by learning C++ through MIT's open course Introduction to C++ found here, where i studied the first lecture and read through the second. this course is designed to be completed in a 4 week term, but depending on my availability, it may stretch as i take breaks from it specifically, and then circle back on coursework to retain information learned. we shall see

#include

using namespace std;

.

int main(){

.....cout<<"Hello, world!\n";

.....return 0;

}

Over the workshop, I gained so much useful knowledge about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The hands-on coding challenges let me apply what I was learning in a practical way. I'm proud of all the web pages, interactions and animations I coded from scratch!

I'll be starting the SheCodes Plus where we'll dive deeper into HTML. CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap and more! Although I still can't decide if I want to be a Frontend Developer or go the Fullstack way😑.

Here is a link to my final Basic project:

Hellooo <3 I've been on Tumblr for a few years now, however, lately I have become a bit of a slacker in terms of my student and professional life and a lot of y'all have inspired me to get a studyblr + accountability blog to help keep myself in check, focused and driven

🌻 about me ♡

name: tofu

age: 23

pronouns: she/her

zodiac: ⊙ aries, ☽ scorpio, ↑ scorpio

languages I speak: english, hindi, japanese (beginner)

🌻 my favourite subjects ♡

- academic: chemistry, cybersecurity, creative writing, biology, personal finance, physics, discrete math, intro to programming (the easiest part about a cs degree yet daunting)

- non-academic: cosmetic science, psychology, literature, ancient/modern history, physics, astronomy, linguistics

I'm trying to once again pick up hobbies that I used to have as a child, such as reading, singing, gardening, cooking/baking, scrapbooking

In my free time, I love watching asian soap operas, Studio Ghibli, and sitcoms that I'd like to call my comfort shows and video essays related to all my non-academic subject interests

I'm an undergrad student currently enrolled in a computer science/fintech double major and I'm preparing either to enter the workforce or pursue a masters in either quantitative finance or bioinformatics engineering or data science (wow, the existential crisis that came with typing up that sentence). I could also talk more about my interests in the above-mentioned subject areas, or new ones as they come up. My goal is to create a routine for myself that I can actually stick to, and spend each day having learnt at least something, no matter how small. I feel like the only way to achieve that is by comparing myself to my peers (I know that is v toxic but hey it helps). Additionally I really want to learn how to drive this year, learn to crochet and keep up with new technologies, do some art journalling to take my mind off stress.
