Yesterday was kind of amazing. I woke up at four and went back to sleep around 6:30 for two more hours. After that I more or less programmed or played with the Rubik's cube all day, with breaks for coffee, lunch, and talking to my parents. Yet despite hours and hours of programming, I don't have a lot more to show for it, even looking at lines of code written. I designed a text browse window and achieved two objectives: based on a read file, display the indices (references) for the texts, and display the texts themselves. Next I want to work on the really excited part: the review window with text checking and correction. Then I'll dive into the dark nightmares of saving and loading data.
As far as the Rubik's cube goes, I can now complete it without looking at the instructions. My record is 4:20, but the next three tries after that all went over ten minutes because I made mistakes. I'm pretty sure that I could improve my time a lot on the first two levels of the puzzle, but I think I'm doing well for only having practiced for two and a half days.
This morning I finished learning the Arabic alphabet. Which doesn't mean I'm finished studying it by any means, just that I can recognize the roman alphabet equivalent for all the Arabic letters. Probably. I definitely need to do more review.
