The past few days have kind of felt like an emotional rollercoaster.
I'm currently playing a CTF, which is part of it. Nothing like a CTF
to make me wildly go back and forth between feeling like an idiot and
feeling like a genius. I'm learning new things and there are some cool
challenges, so it's pretty good overall. I'm not going to win
anything, but that's okay.
I got an email this afternoon to notify me that I can actually have an
apartment in the fall! Now I just have to wait a few more weeks to see
if I can move in over the summer. I'm also desparately hoping that
they honor my roommate requests. University housing is complicated and
having to move out when COVID hit only made it worse, but at least
things are starting to get worked out.
Linear algebra has been stressing me out recently, but I spent some
time studying today and it doesn't feel as scary any more. I still
don't know what a lagrange polynomial is, but I think that's a problem
for next week me.
Oh, and I made waffles on Sunday! I was planning to make a bunch and
then freeze them for later, but there wasn't enough batter. I had a
nice dinner, though! Those waffles are a tasty way to use up some
sourdough discard. :)
