Tired out, but it's done! Managed to get the notes utility
onto the AUR successfully, which makes this our first time
uploading anything to the AUR. It's documented decently, but
a bit thickly and we had a hard time making sense of things.
Managed it though! Tested it and it installs properly and
does what it's supposed to, so we can celebrate our first
PKGBUILD knowing it works. :)
A friend was also incredibly kind and helped fix issues with
Windows compatibility to get it working as intended on Windows,
and they went the extra mile by contributing a .exe file to the
release! Enormous thank you to them. I don't think they're on
the town unfortunately.
I'm just really happy everything works. We've been pouring
time into it this week because classes start back up in a month
and we want to have it mostly good-to-go before then while we
have the time to troubleshoot. We'll be doing a programming 101
class (haha, think we have a head start on that) because it's
required to take other compsci classes, so we won't have as much
time for personal projects. Also doing an introductory IT class
because that's the other requirement to take anything else, so
we'll see how that goes. And then biology's the last class for
next quarter because we really need to knock out the lab classes
for our AA. Been holding off because of the pandemic, but with
vaccination it feels semi-safe to go in for labs only. Otherwise
still entirely remote classes. Would put off lab classes longer
to be safe, but we're out of non-lab classes that are required
and that we could take remotely without frying our brain.
Been doing pretty okay mentally still. Hesitantly calling this a
good period? Had a surge of anxiety last night but that's pretty
standard for us. Something about being alone at night lets the
brain bogeymen out, haha. I think it's because we have permission
to feel things since other people won't see us, meaning there's no
risk of being punished for it. Holdovers from childhood I guess.
Never been allowed to have negative feelings around people, so we
don't.
It's still godawful hot outside and inside. Air conditioners can't
keep up with 100+ F heat and it sucks. I think our room is the only
place in the house that's under 80 F, and that's because it's tiny
and well-sealed. It's supposed to cool off by Wednesday but I really
doubt it.
