I’ve realized that I shouldn’t share too many personal details during group meetings. Sometimes professors might misunderstand you or even form negative impressions. From now on, I plan to stick strictly to reporting the facts. I finally finished an assignment for my Finite Element Method (FEM) course. However, I fell into the trap of tinkering with my editor and software again until 5 PM. It’s a habit I really need to break, as it consumes too much of my productive time. ...
🕒 15:00 | Optimized Obsidian Startup Speed By disabling some plugins and delaying the startup of others, I successfully improved the startup speed of #Obsidian on my phone. 🕒 15:04 | Tinkering with Vim I downloaded the nightly version of #Wezterm , and my terminal can now display images! However, there are still some minor issues affecting my #neovim workflow. At this point, one of the biggest reasons I want to buy a #MacBook is to have a perfect terminal environment for writing and note-taking. ...
01:04 Get insomnia again I want to have a good relaxing. 08:36 Woke up early Not only did I not sleep well, I also woke up very early. I felt groggy all day, didn’t want to do anything, and couldn’t fall asleep even though I wanted to. 12:47 Conflict with Huan I wanted to continue sleeping more, but I can’t fall asleep.I got up and quickly made myself something to eat.Huan and I had a fight last night. Every time we argue, it drains our energy. ...
It was a relatively quiet Friday. I am starting to adapt to reading literature in the afternoon. I am not satisfied to the assignments Victor assigned—the questions seem vague and unclear. Additionally, I’m finding it a bit irritating that Amir constantly asks me questions like, “What happened?” “What’s going on?” or “Did Dr. Liu come by the office?” I simply don’t have the time or the concentration to deal with messages that don’t concern me. Honestly, I don’t think those things should be important to him, either. ...
Annoying Thursday again! But I felt a little bit better than last week. Don’t feel too much tired and sleepy. After school, I cooked some nice food for myself. And then, continue to learn how to assist #Zotero with #Neovim .
09:34 Say it again This song is very warm and soft, I was listening to it during my morning walk. 09:45 #Concrete is stone I wanna find some cutting-edge topic about concrete, perhaps we can see concrete as a stone where we can control the components. Is there any cutting-edge research about how to utilize these stones? 13:58 Lab Training For having the capability to do lab experiments, #Jian gave us another training today. It was about all lab that we might use in the future. ...
10:41 Wrong Common Knowledge It’s colder than usual during snow melting We should create a deeply touching work, such as a poem, a song, an essay, whatever These two common knowledge are most likely some basic #truth in our past education, but they are actually wrong in my experience recently. Regarding the first one, I found that during snow melting, the temperature is actually higher than usual days. Because the sun is shining strongly, and the snow is reflecting the sunlight, so the overall temperature is higher. Especially in Edmonton, when the snow is melting, it means the temperature is very comfortable rather than so cold in other winter days. ...
