don't know if u guys know this, but my first blog on myspace w93 was about my qualms with physics. who knew that i'd also be bad at comsci! i have this big project due on friday and I'm not even close to done. i need to write a javafx program complete with a persistent database, the documentation and write/practice a 7-minute presentation on it by this weekend. and it's not even for school so i don't even have the class time to prep. I'm lowkey panicking rn bc i just stayed up all of last night and i barely got anything done but that's ok. so what if my desktop application is just a glorified login screen with a few buttons. iT iS wHaT iT iS.

on a more positive note, i think i'm finally happy with my css layout, i have a feeling that I'm going to get bored of it v soon, as i do w/ all my themes but we'll see.

i'm curious how the situation with the pandemic is affecting everyone else. ik some countries r doing significantly better than other. i decided to stay in online school for the rest of the school year bc i decided it wasn't worth it. it's hard to tell in advanced bc everything changes so fast. i remember last summer i felt so bad for the seniors who had gotten their senior year "ruined", i would have never thought that it would still be going on one year later.

in the meantime, i wanna leave y'all w/ this:
"My mom bought a cheese grater from Amazon today for me. That's the highlight of my week tbh I don't have much going on." (me, my journal, 01/30/21)

if u read this far, thnx for reading my long-ass vent, this site has been the best part of my new year by a long shot. <3

the fact that i cannot get the contents of .topLeft inside the background image of a frame is driving me insane. any smart people know how to fix this? also sorry mobile users but i don't think i'll ever get it working on a phone.

it was kind of fun to make smth fun w/o worrying about the aesthetic, i gotta do this more often.

on an unrelated note, here's a still life i did of my physics teacher's desk during online class bc i thought it was funny. his name is mr. pop (my physics teacher not the diet pepsi)

lol i spent the entire evening coding for this

↓ You can find the leaderboard here ↓

the ~source code~

UPDATE - The top 100 leaderboard and the SOURCE CODE

boring explanation for those who care
i used python and the api to first get a list of all the users and ordered it in descending order. then i concatenated the user id from the list i made to the end of the user api link from top-down order. that's how i was able to get the names and countries. i kinda want to add images but i don't know if it will break if they change their profile pic. you have to wait 10 seconds between each api call so it's very slow and inefficient. anyways, leave some suggestions/pls let me know if there's a more efficient way to do this thnx <3
