It is hard not to feel like you&#8217;re in over your head at some points. With that being said, I have a great group filled with some really smart people (myself included). It just seems like a lot because I&#8217;m looking at the project in its entirety. In reality, we will be working on this incrementally. Before we know it, we will have a fully functional emulator to play Mar\u2014 I mean unlicensed games.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"220\" height=\"220\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8180\/files\/2024\/12\/cat-computer.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plans for the break<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This quarter has been a bit of rough one. There has been a lot of long nights and early mornings, so I plan on resting up as much as possible. Its hard not to try to fill my breaks with self study, but it really is important to give your mind a break. With that being said, I do plan to work on the project over the break. Nothing too crazy. Maybe just write an opcode here and there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other than that, I&#8217;m going to enjoy the simple things, like actually being able to make dinner after work. I like to cook, but with my schedule I don&#8217;t get many opportunities to make dinner for my girlfriend and I. I&#8217;m going to use my new found time to get to cooking! Also, my girlfriend needs a break. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"148\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8180\/files\/2024\/12\/200w.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31\" style=\"width:319px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plans for next quarter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With finals around the corner, I wanted to fill you in on what I have planned for next quarter. I will be taking 4 classes: Introduction to Usability Engineering, Cryptography, Introduction to Digital Forensics, and of course, this course! I have no idea what to expect, but I have heard cryptography can get pretty challenging. I also heard that about a lot of the courses I took, and I&#8217;m still here! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its also exciting, as next quarter starts off my final year here at OSU! I have 4 quarters left (including summer), starting with Winter 2025. I plan on finishing out strong, and finally earning the degree I&#8217;ve been working so hard for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How is the project going?
