CS107: Introduction to Computer Systems

Intro

CS107 was my fun class this term. It wasn't too much work (compared to CS221. More work than my other classes). The teacher, Julie Zelenski, was awesome. There were a lot of cool ideas. I got famous.

CS221: Artificial Intelligence

Intro

CS221 (along with all of the sheer amount of classes and extracurriculars) is what made this term hard.

The Material

I learned a lot about working with a group and developing a large project. In terms of AI content, the course material:

Sophomore College

Intro

At the beginning of September, I was a part of a program called Sophomore College. Sophomore College is two weeks of one class at the start of sophomore year. You apply to one of several programs. There are small class sizes, and there are lots of cool activities.

The Triumph

Intro

This term was very busy. And that's by my standards. This term was the first time that I really felt like I worked hard. And it felt good. Each time, when given the opportunity, I try to push my limits because there is so much to do and so little time. And this term I found out that I have very few limits, and when I am at my limits I am satisfied.

Aside from that, spending 3 months at my limits taught me a lot. It taught me how much I can do. It taught me about how I work. It taught me more about what I value and what I don't.
