Today I just want to remind you that Hugh Rotation exists and that it’s a masterpiece.

Fall ’22, Day 6
Have you all heard of a blogging site called Tumblr? Sometimes I read funny posts from Tumblr and there’s no reason I couldn’t post similar things here. A lot of the time I have ideas for things which I would post, except that they would break the precedent I’ve set. Maybe the future definition of…
Fall ’22, Day 5
Welch’s Fruit Snacks slap. They’re kind of gooey and the fruit flavors are intense. Also, they’re different shapes! Who would’ve guessed? PS: Earlier I was wondering what I’d post if I were slightly more unhinged. I guess this is the result.
Fall ’22, Day 4
Today I roller skated! I forgot how much I love it. It’s a really nice feeling, gliding through space. I also spent like 4 hours on math today and it’s starting to make sense.
Fall ‘22, Day 3
Follow up on lofi-studying: I think it’s possible. Earlier today I was studying math, and I was super focused. Everything around me disappeared. I stopped noticing people talking. Time ceased to exist. I feel like if that state could rotate slightly, I’d be chilling. Edit 2/18/2023 (about 6 months later): Deleted an extra word, added…
Fall ’22, Day 2
I played so much ping-pong today and I’m starting to really feel the top spin. I’ve been doing some research and there’s soo much to ping-pong that I didn’t know about. I want to balance just having fun with trying to improve.
Fall ’22, Day 1
Lofi-studying. You know the video. If not, here it is. Is this vibe possible while actually studying? In my experience, the moment I start studying, any sort of chill vibe evaporates. Maybe I need more practice. I feel like studying is romanticized in media like lofi and anime, when in reality, it’s just work. There…
Summer ’22, Day 100
Today was my first day of classes! I guess this is the last day of summer. Or maybe yesterday was. I’m not sure what to do next. This series has been fun! I definitely did not expect it to run for 100 days. I think this is one of my favorite series I’ve done. I…
Summer ’22, Day 99
I played so much ping-pong today. I can feel the spin on the ball. It’s a weird feeling, like generating a curve. It’s like a short curve from my arm becomes a longer path for the ball. I was going to make my schedule today, but my classes have contradictory deadlines ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Summer ‘22, Day 98
I’m so tired. Classes start on Monday and I still need to make my schedule. This should be fun!
Summer ’22, Day 97
I just got back from an on-campus music festival dance party! It was my first music event like that and it was a lot of fun!
Summer ’22, Day 96
This semester I’m taking Intro to Programming. The class hasn’t started yet and I’m already done with the first two assignments. I’m trying to get ahead so that I can spend more time on my unfamiliar classes.
Summer ’22, Day 95
More ping-pong. I’m practicing my serve and I’m getting better! I love ping-pong.
Summer ‘22, Day 94
I just played ping-pong for 2 hours straight. I should probably stop now.
Summer ‘22, Day 93
Today I discovered thumbnail sketching thanks to this video by Alphonso Dunn. In thumbnail sketching, I feel free to explore ideas I might not otherwise try, even in normal sketch form. I think canvas size has a huge effect on the drawing artistic process and knowing whether to go bigger or smaller is important. It…
Summer ‘22, Day 92
Vibing. What have you all been up to? Seriously, I don’t care how old this post is. How are you feeling?
Summer ‘22, Day 91
I’m in a stand of trees. Cicadas roar. The air is cool and the sun fading. Leaves are dark against the evening sky.
Summer ‘22, Day 90
I finished watching season 1 of “Spy x Family” and I can’t wait for season 2! It’s so light and pleasant to watch. Maybe I’ll watch season 1 again before season 2 releases.
