Today was a good monday. I got most of my work done for school, there's just this one assignment that has been bothering not only me but pretty much everyone taking that class. Its a research assignment which is very long and tedious for no reason. The teacher provided us with links to articles to research which might seem like a good thing but none of them had any good information, one was about something else entirely. So many people ended up watching videos about the topic or finding and sharing their own articles. I still haven't finished that assignment its too frustrating. Once school was over I went to my first after school club which is girls who code. I mostly only joined it because a lot of my friends are either in it or running it and they asked me to join. I am interested in coding though, and I'd rather not ride the bus home so its a win win. I drove home today and it wasn't as bad as I thought. There wasn't as much traffic as I thought there would be. Taekwondo class was good we worked on breaking kicks which is something we don't get to do often. I went for a run after and my legs felt so heavy for some reason. I guess I'm just sore. I have to do burpees and then go to sleep because I didn't get time to do them earlier...
