oh yeah happy new year's eve my fellow humans

the blue ink means my current (dec 2023) edits

below is from my oldest blog:

2023 goals
1. 2023 AMC 8 DHR
or at least 20 :pray:
Well - I got 20. 1 point away from DHR, but it's a 20 and my skills at that time was only high enough for an 85.5 on AMC 10...so that was probably good enough for 8th grade me.
It's still somewhat sad that I never got AMC8 DHR, but it's ok ig since AMC8 doesn't matter.

2. 2023 AMC 10 AIME qual
I've been grinding so much AMC 10-
That was a false statement. I did not grind as much AMC 10 back in early (Jan.) 2023 compared to now, and I stopped grinding AMCs from March to almost August because school + Algebra 2 summer course. HOWEVER, I DID, in fact, qual for AIME.
haha not mentioning how much AIME is tormenting me rn mentally smh

3. do better in bio
Did not (b+ in bio smh); but I won't have to worry about bio again until 11th grade.

4. master aops alg 2/intermedia algebra
Eh not really, but I did do pretty well in algebra 2 summer course (passed with As both sems (thank god my first transcript of hs is saved).

5. start some precalc before summer starts
Nope, which is why I failed sem 1 :sob:.

6. master number theory
Heck no.

7. alg 2 course in the summer???
Yes.

8. be alive /j
Yes - impressive, isn't it?

9. be sussier because sus = good also according to the owogus sustulate
Definitely. Being sus improved my mental health and mental endurance tremendously.
