and no time to do it

Posted by jasonzeng124 on January 2, 2026

Today I went over to visit relatives and played tractor all day.

Anyway today is the 2nd. School starts on the 5th. USACO is on the 10th. Not a lot of time, huh.

What I need to get done (italics as of 1/25):

  • read CSP/S 2025/4 edi (tried, didn’t understand)
  • do like 5 usaco problems (yessir $\ge 5$ i promise) (oops)
  • do nonempty proper subset of hw (done)
  • finish stanford (idek if i’ll apply caltech atp) (done)
  • review paper (did not do)
  • write enough robotics code to make stuff work (oops)

What I need to get done, longer term:

  • actually continue thinking abt math (ahhhh)
  • continue grinding USACO (uhh)
  • robotics (blobsweat)
  • new year new gpa (read: my average grade should drop to like a 90 or lower) (yay)
  • learn some physics (uhh)
  • teamscode (kinda doing)
  • maybe apply sparc and/or amp or somewhere (did sparc)
  • probably some more stuff that I’m forgetting (bruh)

wow thats a lot of stuff i gotta get done.
