Aight so I took a 90 minute break doomscrolling today but I was grinding for 3 days in a row so it's fairly reasonable... I'd say that I'm allowed to have up to 2 hours of doing random stuff per week, even on very high standards, is that fair? I did get a lot of evidence sorted for debate in this one big document though :3
50 days challenge ❄️ Daily update #3 | Streak: 3 days :P
Productive stuff I did for my goals
• Well... my calc test grades came back and uh. Not great so I guess that doesn't really fulfill anything... I'm kinda bummed because I did 200+ practice problems, corrected my previous quiz, and made super detailed review guides for this one... but I documented my mistakes and also did today's problem set before class so I had some time to chill and process everything. I really want to make a comeback on the next test about integrals
• Made a realistic plan to self-study AP stats that I might actually be able to follow :3 (screenshot is my current progress in Khan Academy)
• I worked on the abstract for my small research project based on feedback from my project manager!
• Ran a nice debate practice today and got to know my teammates some more
• Finished my AP Bio homework before AP Bio class ended
Nice stuff
• I tried the green tea cake I mentioned in an earlier update! It's AWESOME
• My friend 3D printed a box that can turn into a triangle and gave it to me which is super cool!
The day is not over yet so I'm planning on grinding a lot for debate by working on my cases and prep! I will update here when I'm done either later tonight or tomorrow
50 days challenge ❄️ Daily update #2 | Streak: 2 days :3
Stuff I did for my goals
• I solved 50+ integrals today and I'm finally getting it a little bit now (my last bit of work is attached where I absolutely lost my mind and doodled something random). In the mix: Riemann sums, trapezoid rules, definite integrals, limit definitions, using geometry to get the integrals, piecewise integrals, additive integral properties, and transformations...
• I went to my university for an AIChE (american institute of chemical engineers) meetup and got a sticker + 2 free slices of pizza
• Got 3,555 steps today cus it was very busy with my 5 credit hour chem class at uni
Productive stuff in general (kind of fulfills goal #1 to work on what "serves me")
• I took my AP Bio and Spanish tests today
• I edited a video of my school's Diwali celebration which had hundreds of students involved during lunch! I'm an executive board member for the organizing club and it was really cool to see everything come together
• I revised an abstract for a small research project I'm working on and coordinated with my team members on what to do next. It's about nanoparticles!
• I wrapped up the student representative application I mentioned yesterday with 2 more big essays and revising the previous ones!
Nice stuff
• I am seriously behind on the apps that my friends are installing these days because I used to have an iPhone 6s and it wouldn't lemme download any apps because they upgraded iOS and I have full storage... but I got a refurb iPhone 14 because my previous phone crashed and wouldn't get any messages and its AWESOME
• I downloaded Spotify today and man it is way more convenient than what I used to do by making playlists on YouTube on my computer...
I have a debate tournament on Saturday so I have to lock in and work on a lot of prep tomorrow, wish me luck!
50 days challenge ❄️ Daily update #1: November 11, 2025 | Streak: 1 day :3
Stuff I did for my goals
• I finally figured out Riemann sums! Attached is a picture of my successful work after a long time of toil and not getting what this is bro (everyone says I'm a natural 'slowpoke' at math)
• I worked on redesigning social media posts for a small news organization I'm a director for, to stand out more and take less time to create each week!
• It was snowing and really cold but I went out for a run and got 5,000 steps! (not including during the day because I use my phone to track steps and can't have phones at school. but in general I don't exercise much since I'm a couch potato and I want to change that)
Productive stuff in general (kind of fulfills goal #1 to work on what "serves me")
• I completed my AP economics homework a day early
• I did my university chemistry homework 2 weeks early
• I made a 10 page study guide for my AP bio unit test and reviewed lecture slides, attached a preview of my study guide because I'm happy with it
• I wrote two 1,000 word essays for an application to represent my school at the board of education
Nice stuff
• I went to study at the cafe today and got a croque monsieur bread
• There was a nice deal for a slice of green tea cake and a latte for $9 so I got those for tomorrow's study treat
• Me and my friend's project involving building a plane is showing signs of life (the prototype is looking promising)
• I got to know a kid in this AP computer science principles class that I'm the teaching assistant for and bro is in calculus in 9th grade...
Hey! This is my first post :yay: Here's a sticker I made for Siege YSWS (#C08SKC6P85V|) a while back :)
