Update 6/6/22

Today was kinda hectic. The NASA HAS summer experience thing began today, but I totally forgot about it until after I missed like 2 meetings. It ended up ok though, the game moderator was pretty loose on attendance policies and I caught up pretty quickly. The creators of it used a bunch of third-parties though, so it was pretty frustrating to get everything to work. Padlet was very frustrating, but it got worse with GooseChase. I really hate this app now. It literally offered no extra value over a website, but by being an app it taps a lot more data and is just harder to use (constantly switching between websites, the app, and typing). It also crashed a bunch. The camera component also wasn't working. What a mess. I've been considering EDing U Chicago, and I told my mom that. She thought that MIT was my dream school, so she was surprised to hear of this school. I asked my dad about how we were going to fund my college education, and he just said to wait until decisions. I was surprised at this response. In the past, he wanted me to go to UT Austin or whatever the cheapest school was. The other day, he also proposed a scientific test against a point of mine (I brought up vampire power). Overall, he seems to have been thinking more nuanced recently. Also, today was managed to not get sucked into social media, which I haven't done in a while. Hopefully I can keep it up. I saw the key for OMMC today, and I did pretty bad. I thought I might get high 10s, but I got like an 11. A USAMTS protest was also resolved today, but I only got one more point. He did make good points though, and I feel so stupid reading that stuff I wrote like 7 months ago. My shower faucet has been dripping lately, and my mom woke me up at about 8 to yell at me about it. Then I fixed the problem (on my sister's idea). It was kinda a power play too: while I was trying to fix it, my mom was telling it that it wasn't going to work.
