Hello, good morning. So today I'm going to have a pretty full day. It's Friday
So I'm working from home again, and I'm trying to vlog more. So if you guys like these videos, let me know today
I have a pretty busy day. I did some work already and I already like got ready for the day
It was pretty hectic. Then I'm meeting up with a friend and then I'm gonna go home and do some more work
maybe make lunch or
get lunch and
you know, work all day, kind of. It's been so hectic this week. I had so much work to do, you know, an average day
I'm already running late and, uh, Muni is still late
I actually, like, love public transport because I grew up in the suburbs of Florida and I have a walkable city that I live in
It's, like, so convenient. I'm getting my steps in and I get to, like, travel at the same time.
Yesterday, I literally worked from, like, 8 till 8.
I don't know, once you start working, once you start coding, you kind of just, like, don't want to stop. You know what I mean?
Hanging out with my friend Jonas today. Say hi!
Hey everyone, my name is Jonas.
Okay, what do you do here?
I'm building the collective. We're a founder community based in New York, San Francisco, and then launching in LA this month
I was at their game night and it was so fun
I just got home now and I'm actually starving. I'm having this for lunch and my favorite drink
Normally, I cook because I can whip up a meal so quickly
I used to take care of my younger brother and I would cook for him every single day
I'm actually so glad it's Friday. I've been stressed out all week
I just did a lot of work. Today was a pretty annoying day, pretty stressful
I feel like, as a new grad, there's so much that you don't know
The more you learn, the more that you don't know
Because you realize how much that you don't know
But I'm learning a lot
I feel like a lot of people already assume that you know these things
So sometimes, like, things are just so ambiguous
But now I'm going to walk my dog
I also want to do some chores before I go because my apartment is a mess
Because I have not been prioritizing chores
I'm going to make ramen tonight for dinner
Because this reminds me of college
This is gonna be my lunch one day
Ramen and steak is actually one of my favorite meals
I actually have a love-hate relationship with ramen
Because it's so good, but so bad for you
Late at night, I usually lock in on my side projects
So right now, I'm currently making a cyberdeck outfit generator
You can see I'm tracing clothes hanger in SVG form to make the loading screen
I am writing the software that lets you pick outfit pairs
Based on the occasion that you want to dress for
I think sometimes work is so mundane
And being able to express creativity through coding in a different way
It keeps me in high morale with coding and programming
Also, weirdly enough, but coding co-op projects like this
Or any creative projects help me sleep better at night
I don't know why
Maybe it's because I feel so inspired
