What I Learned

I really enjoyed reading "The Myth of Too Busy". It had a really good topic that was very intriguing to read about. I find myself often thinking that I am very 'busy' as well, but every time I have felt that way there has always been a way for me to find more time. In most cases where work is pilled on I end up avoiding my hobbies until the work as done, but now I think that if I look closer I will be able to find dead time that needs to be properly utilized.

For this semester I will doing most of the work for this class in-between my other classes on campus. These natural 'breaks' during my days have formed a perfect block for me to get work done and then some if necessary.

"3 Steps to Recapture Time" suggested to use the first 5-15 minutes of the day to plan out what needs to be done. I feel like this is a very useful idea. I plan on trying to implement that technique as it will prepare me for the day and allow me to better balance my course-load.

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 12 Story: When the World Changes

Author’s Notes: Read First – This story is based on the God Narayan. In short, Narayan is the God Vishnu when he is asleep. The world is nothing when Vishnu closes his eyes, as then there is no observer of the world. Yet when Narayan awakes from his slumber, the world comes into existence again. The source video that is story is sourced from can be found below. I really like the idea of a new world coming into existence each time Narayan opened his eyes. I wanted to put a twist on this by making the world change slightly each time as I imagine it is hard to remember every detail to perfection. When the World Changes Day 0: Do you ever get the feeling that something is off? Or have the feeling that you are being watched? That tingling sensation on the back of your neck, but only when you turn around nothing is there. Yeah, well, that has been happening to me a lot lately. I am scared, and I am ready to put an end to this. Day 1: Yesterday I went to Best Buy
