Ok I bought an iPad and along with it a Logitech keyboard. And I must tell you that this is awesome. It’s almost like a laptop. The reason why I decided to get an iPad was.. I was looking to buy books to study and then I added all the books that I wanted to study on, and the price was almost 800 dollar. Damn. That’s a lot of money, I could buy an iPad and just study from there by downloading pdfs. I thought. And now we are here.
But, another awesome thing is how good this is at talking notes. I type at almost 90 wpm from this laptop, and again with the added utility of Apple Pencil, this makes iPad one hell of a machine for studying. I have carried the principle of ONE THING with this iPad too. The only apps that I have here are GoodNotes, Discord, Google Calendar and Procreate. Also the word procreate reminds me that it is something that I want to do lol. Not right now, there was this phase where I thought having kids and getting married would suck and all those jazz. But, it might not be as bad as I think. I mean, we all agree all those feelings stem from my recent life events, but now it’s gone. I guess that was a phase too.
I was reading this article on design patterns and came across this guy’s article, and then read his blog and then found his YouTube video where he was traveling with his 2 small kids. And awwwww is the only sound that came to my mind for a minute immediately followed by “i want kids”. So, that’s it folks, the handsome charming future Greek-god wants kids.
Anyways, I think I forgot to update it here, but I have been going to the gym lately. I took a subscription to planet fitness and am planning to go there until I become Greek God. I mean I want to get in shape before I go to Nepal. And it’s all for PJ and Ashlee’s wedding who are like my elder brother and sister and I live with them at the moment. You know how good it looks when you are in shape and you wear a suit? I don’t. I want to find out.
Also, I just realized how quickly we connect one idea to another and then to another. As I am typing this, again my mind is now thinking about graph traversals. LOL. Now about Knuth and now about the interview I have tomorrow. Btw, this is also like a new company, but it pays a lot higher than what I get paid now. So, it’d be a significant jump and also there’s a lot of technical teams here, so I guess it’d be awesome to work.
At this moment, I am trying to find challenging things to work on, so that I can find innovative ways to learn and solve problems. Also, I am still preparing for the big tech interviews. Now that I found out that getting an interview at this companies is just a matter of time, I need to be prepared until then. So, most of my focus is there these days. Also, I passed the google online assessment. So, I will be hearing back from the team for interviews soon. I have a new friend who apparently is in Britain. She is also preparing for google interview. Her's is late in december, and I don't know how long I can push them. But it'd be cool if either one of us gets the job. I honestly don't feel that well prepared but now we've to focus on ONE THING. That is work and study. And travel on weekend. It helps you be sane. But, I think I still will be dedicating at least 2,3 hours to study daily.
Talking about travel…we are going to Keywest this weekend, and then the weekend after that to Montana, Yellowstone, and then the week after that to Yosemite. So I'm going to be traveling a lot for few weeks. But, I think it’s great. After this trip I will have visited 4 national parks. I might start collecting stickers of national parks that I visit and stick them on somewhere lol. Also I will start taking pictures. Oh and also, my first nightclub experience will be on Miami. We’ll be visiting Miami el route Keywest so .. here we come. We have to dance the night away. I really hope everything works out according to plan this time. Last time on New Year, we had planned everything but then got Covid. So, we couldn’t really travel a lot of Miami.
Ok, it’s almost 2 am ET, and 1 am CDT. I still live on CDT even though I am here lol. Good night y’all. Yeehawww….ðŸ¤
-Until Next Time
Handsome Charming Man.
