Environmental Contexts
Currently on my fourth attempt at writing this, but at least I’m at home to write about my abroad experience. I really wish that I could turn off the auto save feature, because it’s only deleted progress over the last two months. This week’s blogpost is about using context clues to solve issues. And I…
One Almost Final Report
So this program used to be 12 (instead of 8) weeks long and thus the weekly assignments had 12 prompts. Now you might notice that there’s a difference between 12 and 8 (roughly 4) which means that we no longer answer all of the prompts. The second to last prompt (that would normally go unanswered…

Computer science is fundamentally about foundations. For this internship, I’m working primarily in JavaScript with some additional HTML and CSS. Now it might interest the…
A Brief Statement on Cultural Differences
I’ve been told to write about what I don’t like about the country, so here we go.
A Quick Lesson on Program Design
Whenever you’re programming there are always numerous nuances that can impact how you write the code both on the side of style and on the back end (on the conceptual side of how something works). At the moment, I’m working on the subtitles feature for the Delight XR video player and I’m going to use…
