Oh no to Horray

Oh no, being sick prevented me from being at school for the past three days and oh my, the work i missed is crazy! I have a lot to do these holidays. I will need to contact my classmates to ask about the notes I don't have.

On the other hand... oh my god! It's finally the holidays! Winter breaks is the time you can use to spend with your family. I'm going to use these days off so that I can just sit back and relax before the new year begins. I have many new year resolutions and I hope I will succeed in completing them.

Horray for holidays!
Hope everyone has a great winter break!

Hurray!

My computer is finally working properly with the internet connection again! Thanks to my dad and uncle who took the time to fix it just for my purposes.

Any who, yesterday was a simple day where we had our second programming test. I felt I did very good on the front side because I was familiar with what the questions were asking me to explain. But unfortunately I didn't do so well on the back side because I couldn't understand what to do! Bad news aside, I'm sure that I did much better on this test than our first one.

After our test, Mr. Arkin showed us a program he created for our graphics unit. I feel this is going to be an exciting unit because we'll be learning how to create different shapes, colours in shapes, actions and music in our programs. I'm very excited!

Work It!

Extremely tiring day today!
Mr. Arkin introduced us to some programmer-defined functions. We learnt how to write algorithms in this cool code called the pseudocode with the keywords function and result. I'm sure tomorrow I'll be able to show that I completely understand this topic. I'm really trying better this term! It's in me; I know I can do it!

Anyways, today is my free night. I'm going to use it with the most beautiful thing to do: sleep

Good night everyone!

Mr. Arkin is back!

Even though today's class was only 45 minutes long, it felt like the full class because we still learned a lot! Mr. Arkin was able to come to class today to go over our substrings, and started talking about counted loops. We also found out about the two new keywords: for and decreasing.

Anything else to say? Nope, I don't think so!

Hopefully tomorrow Mr. Arkin will go over some more substrings just so we have a little better understanding of it before our quiz/test!

Anyways, off to bed! Good night!
