This week was really crazy busy. A lot of homework everyday and a lot of disturbing nights. I got a lot of work done, and understood everything I was doing!
Yesterday I came to class late because of a doctor's appointment in the morning. Sat down for about 5 minutes, opened my file for selection 5 on Turing, and then the announcment came for photo retakes. I felt sad I couldn't ask anybody to help me for the rest of the class because I was in the huge line for photo retakes.
Last night it was my little cousin's birthday party! She wanted a few of her older cousins to come and help out in arranging "a really cool birthday party to show my friends how cool my older cousins are", so I felt like I had to be a part of it. I was there since right after I reached home from school, to about 11 at night.
Sadly I couldn't write in my blog last night itself, so I'm doing it right now.
This weekend is jam-packed as well! Hopefully I'll be able to finish all my homework right now, and then have all the fun I want for the rest of the day and Sunday.
Since I don't write in my blogs on weekends, I'd just like to say a huge:
HAAAPPPPPYYYY HAAALLLOOOWEEEENNNN EVVEEERYYYONNNEEE!
^ Yes, I'm aware that that is not the way you spell "Happy Halloween Everyone!", but it is when you're really excited like me!
Bye For Now!

Getting Better?
This week has been quite a good turn out. I worked really hard to understand each concept properly and asked as many questions to avoid any confusions I would have at home while im during my homework. I think I'm trying harder now because I'm getting used to the routine (finally) and I hope I continue to take some real interest in this.
Today my science class went to Rouge Valley so I missed all my classes, but was back for the last 15 mintues of computer science. In that time, I was given a quiz about what we've recentely learned about: selection in programming.
My mom went for the interviews alone because I was really tired and in pain due to my little fall while climbing up a huge, steep hill. Unfortunately I wasn't the only one who slipped or fell down. Anyways, once I came home, I took a nice shower and fell asleep, while my mom went to the interview and heard about my progress in my classes. She told me exactly what my teachers have said and I understand their concerns. I feel that I could do so much better now because my confidence is finally kicking in! I hope I'm able to proove myself fit for IB and I hope I succeed.
Anyways, I'm still feeling a little pain, so I'm going to get some shut-eye again and write tomorrow.
Goodnight!

Selections!
Yesterday's homework was questions 1 and 2 from the selection link on touque.ca. Today we took up our findings and elaborated and how each part of it works in what way. That really helped me to understand what I was actually doing rather than just doing it without any knowledge on it.
Homework for today would be selections 1 - 7! I understand some parts, but others are still a blur. Hopefully I'll be able to go to Mr. Arkin soon and get a little more better understanding of it.
Tomorrow I'm going to be on a trip to Rougue Valley with my science class! It's going to be great! I'm done all my homework, and now I'm going to just relax and let my sleep eventually take over me.
I'll write about my trip tomorrow, so stay tuned!
Bye! <3

Good day!
Today was a really nice, late-start, Tuesday. Even though our ICS class was short, I learnt a lot about the operators, the Boolean expressions, and a few more words for using in Turing.
We were taught about two different operators: arithmetic and relational. We also learnt about program controlling. Have you ever heard about the Boolean expression? Well, it's the different types of operations in the operator. Sounds weird, huh? I thought that too! Program controlling is split into three parts: sequence, selection, and repitition. The one Mr. Arkin elaborated on was selection.
Alot of information written down for today, and now I shall start on my homework!
Byeeee !

Ready to learn?
Today about 7 students were late to ICS class this morning. Ofcourse nobody wants to miss this class because it's actually quite interesting. We all have our slow mornings, traffic, bad moods, or emergencies that slow us down and make us late. Personally I will try my best to reach my class more earlier in the morning and I'll be ready to learn.
We learnt about how to trace the execution (desk checking) for our assignments and we were told to practice it at home. I'm confused! I was aware of what we did in class, but I'm not quite sure what "desk checking" really is. Right now I'm trying out what we did in class today on Turing.
More to say tomorrow!

My days have just started...
Mr. Arkin revised our assingments with us today and also showed us how to colour code our programs! It was actually pretty cool to learn about how it works. It was a little confusing (as usual) but it was alright. I'm getting a little quicker in understanding the concept of this now, and I'm on my 3rd question for the input assignment right now and I'm trying my best to do it on my own...
Anyways, it's finally Friday and I'm going to relax a little with my friends soon.
HAPPY WEEKEND <3

Hm...
I have no clue why my yesterday's blog post got deleted, but anywho...
Today was my 'catching up' period and I was able to understand the assignment better. I talked to my classmates and tried to understand each concept.
Anyways, I have alot of homework to do, and I don't feel too well right now. I'll write more tomorrow.
Byee.
