Technology and Me

To start I have never blogged before, nor have I ever used social media extensively so posting updates this frequently is something new to me. However, Blogger seems very user-friendly so I have had no problems so far.

I have used Google Sites before in a limited manner, but I generally know my way around it. My former Boy Scout Troop used it to maintain a website of events and a picture gallery (see here). I also tried to place my notes from last semester on a site for centralization purposes, but I found it too time consuming to update. While the information I had displayed on it look good, there was no easy way for me to automatically add additional pages as necessary, and the manual process was very tedious. I actually think it would have been easier to use Blogger, rather than Google Sites, for that specific goal. The below picture summarizes how a majority of websites function, and as CS Major I have seen code bases that adhere in the exact same fashion.

I have only went to one official competition back in 2014 with a Single Best Time of 22.33s and an average of 28.23s ( My Record ). Unofficially my PB for a single solve is 14.72s. Twisty Puzzles...? It is a weird to call a Rubik's Cube a twisty puzzle, but that is what it is. I say this because there is a large amount of

Week 7 Story: The Undying Battle

Author's Notes This story focuses on the events that happened during the conflict of the Pandavas and the Kauravas. The main battles can be seen in this story 1 . I found that the fighting in this war was primarily focused around where the generals were fighting, and less so about the actual infantry on the ground. One particular sentence inspired me to write this story, "Terrible were the omens, for headless men rose up and fought against one another". The concept of the dead fighting each other while a horrific war was happening was something that I wanted to elaborate on further. The Undying Battle An ancient prophecy of old once spoke of the days to come, of a great horror and darkness that would befall upon the world. The prophecy read:   A day will come when the bonds of blood will break.   Mothers' sons locked in celestial conflict.   Endless darkness will fall upon the sky,   and a disease will inflict those already gone... I awake again to
