Programming breakthrough

Yesterday was a beautiful albeit cold day, but I didn't take the chance to enjoy it. Compared to the previous day, I don't know where the time went. Oh yes, that's probably because after waking up early, I took a long nap and woke up at 10:30. I got my reservations completed for my trip, but I think I spent most of my time working on programming. I refactored all of my previously written code into the new project in Netbeans, and easily accomplished what I had first tried to do a month ago when my problems began--I made the program read a text file of a few Bible verses, and then display only the text of the first verse in a text box. Once this was successful, I did a lot of work on the GUI design.

I almost talked myself out of dancing just because I didn't feel like it, but I convinced myself to watch a few dance videos which inspired me to try after all. I think my hitting technique is improving, but it's still quite difficult to make it look good. I did some cleaning and packed for my trip, and finally had a rather nice dinner. I ate bulgolgi, okonomiyaki, and a matcha chocolate pudding which might be the most delicious thing I've ever had from a convenience store. I did laundry too, but seriously, where did the time go?

IOVG: Fighting the urge to play wasn't as difficult as the day before, but it was still quite a struggle. I did a lot of programming, and then I started reading at 8 PM. By 9:30 I was tired, so I downloaded a trivia game and played it for an hour. There were some interesting questions where I could learn something, like the one about hippos having red sweat or the Olympic gold medalist who colluded with the nazis during the occupation of France and was killed by a French resistance group. Unfortunately, these only made up for about 10% of the questions. There were also some incredibly stupid ones, like "what was the occupation of the character played by (actress) in the movie (title)?" Who cares, what's the point? And the majority of the questions were such basic knowledge that I felt a bit insulted, and there were ads too. So I uninstalled that app and played a memory game for about fifteen minutes.
