Day 144 / 365 Got some well needed sleeping-in time. Though, despite this, I cant say I did all that much important stuff. A lot of my day was spent watching anime with a online friend over discord call lol. I did fully implement the quiz game to my horizons study app. I also have some plans for a cool mastery tacking thing by just storing your last two attempts on any of the minigames. If you manage to get all questions right in two game sessions in a row, you would have maximum mastery for that dataset. How cool. anyways im going to be real for a second. Im extremely worried about horizons nexus. The event is in exactly 26 days. You are required to buy the ticket 2 weeks before the hackathon, so I need to get the 15 hour ticket within 11 days. Of my three horizons projects, I have one shipped. The previous ship took roughly 10 days to be completed, only to be denied in order to do a reship with my new hour count. Assuming this ship goes through with no reductions, I will hopefully be able to get the ticket in the next two days. This leaves 23 remaining days until the event. Lets say the hypothetical that I REALLY need to get the flight grant to go. Assuming that ships take 10 days to get accepted, that only leaves me 13 days remaining. A flight from my city to SF costs 550 dollars, and under horizons $8.5 grant per hour, that makes 68 hours. This means, I have to do 5 hours a day. Man. I dont know if i can truly go to horizons at this rate. Lets say in a hypothetical world where it only takes 3 days for a ship to get reviewed, I would only need to do 3.4 hours a day. Rough, but a lot more achievable. So uh. Yeah. Kaplin fun fact. I guess. IDK. I feel generally down today. probably because my little brother was just being a general nuisance for most of the day. but hey, thats little brothers for you. TLDR: Today was a great day with no flaws since i got to sleep in :)

Day 113 / 365 Today was something. Since my dad is now getting sick (guess the whole family is getting it huh) we didnt go to tutor at the local church so personally I find that a W. I mean dont get me wrong, it feels good to help people, but its just really tiring and the kids we tutor arent very nice. like at all. anywhom, in this extra time, me and my brother were going to go to a honors society meeting thing, but turns out the community college was holding a spring event with a bunch of different booths in the courtyard. Because of this they didnt actually hold a meeting, but we did get some free shaved ice. yay! Anywhom outside of personal life stuff, I worked a bit on one turret and started implementing the changes I mentioned on day 110. Now it uses a different format that basically dissolves the idea of "directional inputs and outputs" and is now "grid location inputs and outputs", which doesnt change much YET but when I add something like catapults it will be very useful lol. Anyways my flavortown sidequest wont be happening, but it isnt cancelled. Instead, it will be something else now. But im not going to say what happened to it yet LOLL bababhahmam im so EVVILL RAAHHHH anyways given the whole "transparency values" in hackclub you could probably find what its going to end up being lol. I am kaplin86, and this was day 113, april 23 2026. Thank you for reading. also i think i need more hour of sleep why are half my posts about personal life instead of projects

Day 105 / 365 I wouldnt say today was my day... I was pretty sick most of the day. Most of my day was spent working on homework lol. I worked a tiny bit on one turret main script recode with fixing up proper input restrictions (previously you would be able to insert an item from any direction which isnt correct). I also started working towards adding the router block, but from the looks of it, its not going to be as simple as i thought. Im making this post early since Im going to go do some late night baking and probably go to sleep early from the sickness. hopefully tommorow will be a better day! To add a bit more sustenance to this post, i have attached an image of my dog.

day 48 • felt really miserable today but felt so much better after jogging • I think I'm pretty much going to speedrun the entire mcu movies at this point • did not manage to sleep on time... but I will tonight. I'm going to try stop ruminating about productivity and just instead fix sleep, if that's the only thing I'll do this vacation. Goals for the next 5 days(wdym only 5 days left??!): wake up on time, no phone before bed(i need to read the golden egg anyways so good time to start), and go outside. • emo about the end of my break...⌛ • oh also I learnt how to prove 1+1=2 today Today: • go outside:tw_white_check_mark: • wake up on time❌ • no phone before bed❌

day 47 • not feeling very well. maybe my bad sleeping habits contributed... watched madame web until 2 and then slept until 12, having my sleep interrupted by cooing pigeons 3 times • productivity 0/5. literally did nothing. watched morbius and chatted with my niece • I NEED to rein in my screen time & fix sleep

day 38 • I think my sleep schedule may be permanently messed up. If I'm stressed I sleep late, then I become sleep deprived, being sleep deprived makes me emotionally unstable and I become even more stressed, thus continuing the every going cycle of destruction • did well at the ioi today! At the one hour and 45 min mark I had only 8 points and even the teacher came to help:heavysob:. But once I got the structure set up, I speedrunned (speedran?) the tasks and got like 160 points in 40 min because it was super easy once you have the structure. 10/10 chaotic experience, would (nt) recommend

:50days: day 50 I am writing this at 12:21 AM, January 1st, 2026, which technically means that I missed my update for today, but who cares? Today, after not getting a lot of sleep, I mostly prepared all of my goodbyes and tried to tie up loose ends. Spent much too long drafting my holy yapparonie for #C0818RRJGDA|, dropped a fragment for an ARG (:eyes_shaking:), and dmed a few people that I still have stuff to finish up with. you know, this is my own challenge and i've only achieved 2/8 of my goals. I didn't ship Fireside, learn Rust, or finish #C09MJJV82QY|. I missed 3 days. many of my updates were nothing burgers. but maybe that's not what really mattered. maybe what did matter was coming back (mostly) every single day, trying my absolute hardest to make these 50 days count. and I think I succeeded. I made two projects that made people smile, I solved a bunch of AoC puzzles, I learned about code organization in Godot, and I kinda understand Rust now? I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. Maybe this under-13 fiasco is just an elaborate prank. Maybe they're going to give me a few extra days here. As I write this, I'm still living in the world where my Slack account is active. I have no clue what's going to happen next - tomorrow, over these 3 months, over the next 3 years. But I'm grateful I got to hack and build during these 50 days alongside all of you. catch you on the flip side <3 (also, yes, hand reveal :shocked:)

:50days: Day 13/50 Today was a lot of reading I finished the first chapter of Refactoring English and it was really good! i recommend it I've just finished reading an article about Fran Sans that's interesting too I also made a small site called wakey-wakey that tell you when you should go to sleep based on how much cycles you want to do. It's not opensource yet cause I'd like to fix some things Tomorrow I'll probably read another chapter and try to make a custom scrapbook api cuz the current one is so weird :hdheavysob:
