I ❤ taobao
I was feeling pretty crappy, but after I bought things on taobao I feel like I've got something to live for.
*wakes up* *checks if items have shipped*
I feel like taobao is the entire reason I was destined to learn Chinese.
I get to buy so many more things and it saves me a lot on shopping because I no longer spend money when I'm outside. When I see something I like I will whip out my phone and search for a cheaper version on taobao. I'm going to be the reason behind the collapse of brick and mortar shops D:
I buy mostly clothes, cute things and household items
life stuff
A pharmacist from IMH called me and said they were going to put my mom on this medicine which I looked up on wikipedia. Wikipedia says it is used to treat
schizophrenia. Will be going to meet the doctor tomorrow to find out more.
--- ramblings about work and code below ---
So, I'm developing the app for my
FYP now, learning
Ionic, AngularJS and Meteor at the same time. And holy crap it is difficult and daunting. Even my bf has downloaded AngularJS reference apps in his phone and is learning for me.
I have grown a lot as a
frontend developer the past year. I do not like this frontend development package manager stuff. Why can't we have GUIs?! Why must everything be done on the command line?
Maybe as a UX Designer, I should aim to design a smoother experience for frontend developers, to make the transition into frontend development easier for beginner programmers.
I made my
first assignment for my students! Basically, I created a really crappy 100MB website and I gave my students tasks to
optimize the website. And wow, this blog I made in 2009 violates so many web development practices. I don't even bother to optimize images here. LOL. May my students never discover my old websites and code ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I submitted my application for
grad school. Crossing my fingers.
I have a new
portfolio. I programmed really cool svg and css animations
And a better designed
resume above, an improvement from my earlier one:
I am happy with my
improvements in design and programming the past year. So I really hope I can continue to get better (in grad school hopefully). My dream is to really be a great user experience designer.
