Day 5: Catching Up and Random Realizations

So here's how day 5 went

The Work Part

woke up late again, nothing new there. but hey, I maintained my leetcode streak so that's progress. soon as I opened my eyes, solved a question, then jumped into mathematics.

3blue1brown has been a game changer for me. like I genuinely thought matrices and determinants were just us messing around with random numbers for no reason, turns out there's actual logic and reasoning behind it? the way he explains things just clicks, you know. makes you wonder why school never taught it like this.

after that, watched some ML videos. being honest though, I'm still behind on my weekly plan. set these ambitious goals and now I'm playing catch up, but that's fine. by the end of this week I'll be back on track, that's the goal.

The Broken Promises

remember how yesterday I said I'd maintain github streaks like I do with leetcode? yeah about that... didn't happen. will try again from tomorrow. consistency is hard when you're trying to build multiple habits at once but whatever, we keep trying.

Gym and Other Random Stuff

so this temporary gym I have to deal with for 3 weeks is terrible. like really bad. I miss my good gym near college so much. after workout today I was riding back home and literally didn't realize how fast I was going till my song ended, that's when it hit me lmao.

home doesn't suit me. never has. I function better when I'm at college, away from all this. 3 more weeks of this then I'm back.

Where I'm At

leetcode streak: alive

github streak: dead (for now)

ML progress: behind but catching up

mental state: managing

location: wrong one

that's day 5. tomorrow we try again.
