I'm not really sure what day to log this as so I am going to say today. I built an app that allows you to submit tasks into a "circle" that your family members are in with you. Each task has a variety of different things you can change about it such as priority, due date, and other tags. Once a task is submitted, anyone with the proper permissions in your circle is able to pick up the task and complete it. If they drop the task, then it's able to be picked up again.

I participated in the Byte software challenge where we solved problems similar to AP Computer Science free-response questions. We had a round where we worked with our team and then we had a round where they assigned us random teams and we worked with students from other schools.

Using the color values I gathered from our starter pictures, I recolored retro-space images to use as email backgrounds.

I went to hacks.academy over the weekend. I had a team with two other sophomores and we made an app to increase internet literacy in students. We called the app Spyware Nightmare. I think I got about an hour and a half of sleep. Besides the terrible judging, it was super fun and I am very glad I went. The best part was watching veggie tales in the middle of the night. We used Source Lair to program our app, a cloud-based IDE. I learned that getting an app to work for the first time (the flaskinni front page) is really annoying. I also learned how to use git commands. This makes me really want to learn more advanced web development. I was perfectly fine sitting there while everyone else was asleep coding and would like to do more of that.

I competed in a hackathon at US and won second place with my team. We spent the day making a web app for in-home care of Alzheimer's patients. I programmed in python for the first time. Our project was actually blocked on the wifi for multiple hours until the person who ran the competition unblocked it.

I built an email for glave that users get when they're first invited to glave. It basically just gives them the steps to take to activate their account.

I built an email (the email you're getting from this) that gets sent out whenever someone submits a log

I made a nudge email so that school managers can press a button and send an email out to every person who hasn't logged in yet.

We talked about what I've already done and am able to log

I spent the day shadowing different people at Goodyear and learning about different applications of Computer Science in the real world. At one time, I scanned RFID tags in Formula One tires. At another time, I was learning about a program they use to calculate how much air would be expelled from an airplane tire if it broke. Overall it was very interesting and I felt like I learned a lot.

I have taken 3D Game Design, Intro to Web Design, and AP Computer Science.

I met with Mr. Adiletta and we talked about my plans for Vector. I have taken a lot of Computer Science courses so that covers that area. I have earned a lot of field hours already so I will be able to log those. For my independent project, I would be working on CrusadeAR which is an AR game/website I am working on. My Capstone project will be Support Circle.
