casual productive tuesday + arian's slug story

 Today is Tuesday and here I am wrapping up how the day went. It was fairly uneventful I would say.   - Woke up at like 7:50 AM and got ready. I literally stopped telling myself to pull up to this class on time because there really is no need to and it feels so good to press that snooze button  - And so I went to my 8 AM class until 9:35 AM. I put in one earbud and litearlly finished my reading reflection due on Thursday during class which felt super satisfying. Literally that class is so soothing sometimes to do work because its just kids yapping making a nice environment for me to do work  - Then I went back to my room and did some cubing until around 10:50 AM  - Then I left at 10:50 AM cuz Jackson was coming back today at 11:20 AM and I don't wanna deal with his mom being in the room lol so I guess that means a very early lunch for me.  - After lunch I took a bike down to McHenry library. At this point it was like 12:00 PM. I stayed at the library for 2 hours where I wrote this

codeforces, legs, nap, and poker

11/19/2023, Sunday. Today was quite a long day quite literally. Right now its 11/20 1:17 AM while I'm writing htis and it feels like I took my CF contest 2-3 days ago even tho it was less than 24 hours ago. Anyway, let's talk about what I did on this Sunday on campus. It wasn't very productive, but not in the way where I regret not doing anything.  - 6:20 AM = Woke up and did the codeforces contest at 6:35 AM  - 6:35 - 8:10 AM = CF Contest. I finished early and kind of lost motivation to do D with like 25 minutes left in the contest. I ended up with a +83 rating which is HUGE for me and definitely was a great mood boost to the rest of the day  - 8:10 AM = Went to the gym, where it was SUPER EMPTY. I ended up staying there until like 10:10 AM and even at 10 AM there was still no one. Now I know to go to the gym on Sunday mornings when I'm here on campus.  - 11 AM = Shower  - 12:40 PM = Lunch, I went with Raymon and it was super mid. It was pretty bad they legit had like

Biking, costco, downtown, wrestling, and a TV.

 Alright, it's 12:30 AM and I will be wrapping up 11/8/23. This is DEFINITELY A DAY worth talking about. - woke up at 8:30, drank my apple banana smoothie that i made:  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1Hm3gLT6AwI  - went to CSE30 discussion that lasted like 40 minutes instead of an hour and literally no one in the class pays attention  - Zach and I walked to science and engineering library and chilled afterwards. I dipped after like 30 min in the library cuz I had math lecture  - Went to math lecture, first in-person lecture since like a week ago. But yea just good lecture  - Then walked back to science and engineering library to meetup with Zach and we went to my dorm room where I dropped off my computer and stuff and also to get my helmet  - Then we e-biked to where he lives in Cowell and locked our bikes while we ate lunch  - LUNCH WAS FIRE it was greek food and it was AMAZING. Obviously not top-tier greek food, but mid greek food is still super good, its hard to mess that stuff

  Something crazy, something memorable, and something hilarious happened yesterday.  So 11/6/23, let's do the typical day diary type stuff.  Here's what happened on November 6th  - It was a Monday, and usually I do push day on Mondays but I was super sore from running on Saturday and spending 3 hrs at the gym on Sunday playing basketball and doing pull day.   - So I woke up at 9:50 AM, got ready, and I didn't have a smoothie ready for this morning so I cut myself an apple and a banana and that was my breakfast. While this happened I checked canvas and my professor sent out an announcement that today's lecture was gonna be online again because she was still feeling sick.  - SO I took my lecture at my desk and it is harder to focus for sure but I still got it done because like she moves at a pretty fast pace in her lecture you always have to be on top of your game.  - After lecture, I think I chilled for a while and cubed a bit or something, but then I ordered grubhub to
