#match2

Slide the columns of gifts up and down to make matches of 3 or more gifts in a row on the “pay” line to remove them. Hurry as more gifts are continuously added and moves are limited once they fill up. Making matches adds time to the countdown timer. Play until time runs out or the board fills up with gifts. Slide the columns of gifts up or down to make matches of 3 or more gifts of the same color…

You are a young witch’s student who tries to learn how to brew a potion. You should put the same ingredients in each half of the boiler. Do it fast, or the potion will be spoiled. Pas as many levels as you can and share your score with friends! In the main menu, press Begin. Then try to find the similar potion ingredients and put them together in the boiler. Complete as many levels as you can and…

They wanted an au-pair in July/August, but I am still on vacation in end of August, so it didn’t fit anyways.

I hope I’ll get an other match soon.

Today, I woke up feeling extremely tired. I went to sleep around midnight and woke up around 5 AM, then woke up again around 7. It's not as if this should leave me so tired, but for some reason today, it did. I'd also feel it for most of the morning and the rest of the day.

I checked who my partner would be around 7 through the Progress Tracker. I got another Korean partner. The randomized selection process must like pairing Koreans together.

I arrived early like the day before, and good thing. The gate at the elevator wouldn't unlock, and Maurice had to come and help unlock it. He said to turn it harder. I thought I was turning it hard enough, but I guess not.

After checking in, I waited for my partner to arrive, we chatted a bit, then had lecture. It was a review of the material from the day before, along with questions being answered, and a review of the readings. I took a couple of notes, and then we returned to our workstations to code away.

Today's projects were to make a Match 2 game and Sudoku. Sudoku looked like it would be the more challenging of the two, but Match 2 came first, so we tackled that first.

It was a little worrying for me that I might not know enough or appear incompetent to my partner. The day before wasn't as bad since I already knew who I was working with, but now I got to experience what some of the others probably did on the first day. I think it worked out very nicely though.

We managed to almost finish the Match 2 game. We asked Maurice a lot of questions about what to do, and we mistakeninly thought it was meant to eventually be a two player game, not one. Making it one helped simplify it. We got to mess around with the debugger a little more, and also practiced testing out the code small bits at a time, and I think we did that better than the day before. Getting the game to successfully recognize matches and when the game was complete felt like a nice accomplishment.

At the end of the day, we took a look at Sudoku, and it appeared as if it would've been much easier than Match 2. Oh well. The two projects should be similar enough that hopefully, we didn't miss out on too much. I don't think anyone finished both games anyway, let alone start on both.

I caught a cohortmate on the train home, and we chatted a bit before I got off on my stop. Tomorrow is recursion day. I have some familiarity with it from practicing it with another mate during Jumpstart, but I'm sure there will be more to it if they're devoting a whole day and projects to it. There's at least two hours of prepwork, so I better crunch if I want to get enough sleep tonight.

Having worked more with classes and attrs, I feel more familiar with that, as well as practicing breaking up classes into smaller methods and knowing where to reference/place different variables/methods.

I felt like I might be getting sick today, so I better be careful. I seem to get sick whenever I start a new job or school, so if worse comes to worse, my partner tomorrow is going to have to deal with me wearing a face mask (for their benefit and everyone else's).
