Knee Deep in the Passenger Seat: Is It Casual Now if We're Having a Quiz Next Meet?

"2 weeks and your mom invites me to her house in long beach, is it casual now?" Just like what Chappell said, is it casual now that we're 4 weeks in or are we getting for real right now? Although I would like to think that it is still casual, the hard truth is that it's not. Over the past few weeks, the topics we've discussed have slowly increased until the load was nearly enough for us to have our first quiz the following week. At least that's what we thought when we first entered the room, however it soon changed when our professor told us that we were going to have our quiz that day, a palpable sense of panic and horror was felt by everyone at that very moment, including myself. Although I was slightly prepared because I did a light review on the first topic, it was still not enough to help me pass and salvage myself from the dreadful test. However the feeling was soon dissipated when our professor said that we were just going to discuss the second topic, everybody breathed a sigh of relief the moment our professor said that.

As usual, before the class started we had our cutesy little game, the REBUS PUZZLE!!. And do you want to know what makes this different from the past games? It's because this time, I finally got a correct answer! YAYY!!! The answer was supposedly Jack-in-box but I said Jack-in-the-box, but the professor still considered it as correct, so it's still a win for me. (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

Everybody was on a high after that mini-game and it was finally time to start the discussion...

The discussion began by defining the software design, where its critical role in the software lifecycle was emphasized. The purpose of software design was also highlighted, which was to create a blueprint for building software that meets specified requirements while ensuring maintainability, scalability, and usability. Then the core design principles were discussed such as problem partitioning, abstraction, modularity, and top down & bottom up strategy. Then the system implementation and its deployment were covered next. It was highlighted that we should follow the design blueprint closely so that we can ensure that the software meets its requirements. And that we should also note the importance of rigorous testing at every stage to ensure that the software is free of defects. And before deploying the system to the production environment, there should be strategies discussed first and also consider the rollbacks, monitoring, and maintenance of the system. And finally, the importance of code refactoring, it is the process of restructuring the existing code in order to improve the readability and also reduce the complexity without having to change the external behavior. Overall, the topic was discussed in great detail with numerous examples to further help us understand the topic.

As expected, after the discussion we had another activity where we had to design a system based on the problem given to us. We were still grouped into 4,and also by pure coincidence, the problem assigned to us was similar to the current project that we were doing, to design an online bookstore where users can browse books, add them to a shopping cart, and make purchases, and what's even funnier is that I was in the same group with 2 of the other members from the project, so color us surprised! In doing the task, I was assigned to create the initial design diagram for the system. Honestly, with the amount of time given and the resources available to use, I think we did well with the interface of the system. Although there were critiques from the other group that COMPLETELY left us speechless, I thought that we still did a great job with our output. And of course, what's the best way to end the class with an announcement for an upcoming quiz the following week! (┬┬﹏┬┬) May we survive the quiz next meet... so not looking forward to it ಥ_ಥ So in conclusion, no it is NOT casual, WE ARE LOCKED IN!!

💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

And before we end the week, we did a follow-up consultation on the pre-requisites of our manuscript, the hard-work and perseverance of the team bore fruit as it led to us being in the lead to finish the pre-requisites first. However, our Activity 1 was completely wrong, I guess we got lost in translation. ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ In the end, the consultation finished rather quickly, with minor adjustments here and there, and it finally ended in a positive note. 💖💖

they'll fund a genocide and let their poor regions be destroyed. don't fucking forgive them for that.

my hometown is completely gone from what pictures i can find of it, i have not heard from my family (including aunts, uncles, parents, one sibling, and a grandparent), and the infrastructure in the mountain communities is wiped out. i cannot stress how catastrophic this is, or how difficult it will be for these communities to build back. i am angry, and scared, and heartbroken by everything that's happened.

and our government is spending it's money to fund a genocide.

free palestine, and don't be complicit. realize that this is not something happening that doesn't affect you--although it shouldn't take this to care about the deaths of thousands of people anyway.

Ok I’m being so brave about it but a couple of days ago I saw this post claiming that the Jedi saying ‘this weapon [your lightsaber] is your life’ is emblematic of ‘the Jedi’s failure as peacekeepers’ (not an exact quote but pretty close) because why would a weapon be the life of a peacekeeper?

And like. The Jedi are a culture. They’re a religion.

You know that, right? You know that many cultures, including generally peaceful ones, have sacred weapons, right? You know that the bond between a Jedi and their crystal(s) is an extremely sacred thing that requires the consent of both parties and is integral to their way of life, right?

You know that lightsabers are not intended to be only for killing, right? That the first thing Luke learns to do with his lightsaber is to shield and defend? You know that a culture having sacred weapons doesn’t mean that they view killing as sacred, right?

Not trying to start shit, I don’t even remember who said it, but ugh

On this Father's Day, I would like to acknowledge how much I love Daniel "My Daughters Aren't Speaking to Me" Molloy for being the only person reading Claudia's diaries and remaining firmly on her side, clearly while thinking "Look, I'm not gonna win any awards for Father of the Year, but JESUS CHRIST"

🍂 INPRNT (Prints) 🌻 Ko-fi (Stickers, zines)

I recently bought an art book on Caspar David Friedrich, whose emotional work stuck with me since I first saw it in a museum years ago. Over the course of a few weeks, I read about his life and at the same time did studies/interpretations of many pieces. It was a really enjoyable and fulfilling project; here's a good lot of them together :)

I was happy to see many people enjoyed Friedrich's work+my interpretations while posting them individually. It took way too long, but I FINALLY set up a print shop for some of these + some other pieces for those who expressed interest. Thank you so much!
