Hobbies.

Everyone has got to have a hobby, right? Recently I've developed an interest for two things, photography, and RC helicopters. First up, Photography. I'm going to Chicago pretty soon in mid-March to visit my aunt, and at the same time help her out with a small project which has a bit of coding and design involved. … Continue reading Hobbies. →

Daily Coding Plan

It's the end of the year, and while everyone is busy doing up their 2013 reflections and 2014 resolutions, I'm here to construct an effective coding plan for myself. I discussed with my friend recently and came to a conclusion that I've been coding daily, but have not been making (significant) progress. It's probably because … Continue reading Daily Coding Plan →

Learning alone is really tough…

But it's the only road that I could take for now, NUS hackerschool went on hiatus due to the school holidays and, yeah that was basically the only place where I talked to someone else about coding. I finished problem set 4 of Harvard's CS50, and I guess I've made a great leap forward by learning … Continue reading Learning alone is really tough… →

Reserve.

I'm not a 'sports person', but I somehow decided to join swimming for my division's Sports Day. Well, it was a great experience overall, despite the fact that I was only a reserve in the end. Couple of reasons why I really enjoyed past month training for this event: Keeps me exercising everyday! I think it's … Continue reading Reserve. →

It’s November.

What a lame and boring title, right? It isn't for me. November signifies yet another month closer to ORD. It also reminded me of how long have I been coding, and how much I've improved. So, without further ado... I built a Griddler app for my unit. It was just a small project which I wanted to try … Continue reading It’s November. →

Due for an update

I'm back with an update for what's up lately. A few things!First, I'm focusing a lot on C++ depth.I brought my Primer C++ textbook into camp, so that I could focus on a topic a day, be it the basic arrays/variables, or the advanced classes and polymorphism. Learning something new a day would really help … Continue reading Due for an update →

Hackerschool, my weekly remedy.

I've just came back from hackerschool, a really great programme by NUSHackers. I've been to two sessions so far, learnt some basic git and Expressjs (though I admit I really still suck at Expressjs, gotta play around with it more) The past two weeks was really hectic. A parade that included two days of rehearsals, … Continue reading Hackerschool, my weekly remedy. →

Across clear skies. Among glowing stars. That’s where I’ll find us.

Title was just a quote from a WongFu video which I really enjoy watching. Just watched 'The Internship' just now. Caught it alone because, I didn't know why too. Was supposed to catch it with a good friend of mine. But I decided I should catch it alone first. It was a really good movie … Continue reading Across clear skies. Among glowing stars. That’s where I’ll find us. →

Humble Beginnings

I am here again, trying to pen down all of my thoughts so far. I started this WordPress site at almost the same time I started to learn coding, and to see how far I've come, it's great. Honestly, I admit that I still do not know most of C++'s utilities, despite playing around with … Continue reading Humble Beginnings →
