New colors!

A fifteen-year-old in Huntsville, Alabama kicked the bucket by suicide in the wake of being tormented for being gay. In 2018, it was a seven-year-old in Denver, Colorado. There have been and will be some more. For these numbers, I’ve decided to write on this topic. I am not sure if my topic is to inform about gender and sexuality or to deconstruct racism. Therefore, it is important to identify the difference between gender, sexual identity and sexual orientation.


Gender is what you find between your legs or to be more specific what the shape of your genitals is. Sexual identity or what we call sexuality refers to what you really feel. Sometimes, you are female, but not feeling like that. We don’t know whether  it is actually abnormal or all of that was just our fault when we think there are only two colors in this world, blue for boys and pink for girls.

However, sexuality is about your expressions, thoughts and entire feeling. Sexual orientation is the ghost, nobody likes to talk about. Sexual orientation is not just about your sexual attraction, It means people you probably fall in love with. That is why there is more than one orientation, for example, lesbians, gay, bisexual, heterosexual, sapiosexual, asexual….etc.

Most of those groups isolate themselves in boxes, making it harder to face heterosexual who think they are the only type of human beings. Global cities where a huge number of people live together have to know there are more than orientation and the world is too large to contain only one type. They don’t need to love LGBTs, but they are required to respect them and not let their eternal hatred and their fear of diversity drive them to make someone dead.

Miserable

 This one word could describe my life right now. I am writing this because of the last book I read talking about how to re-organize your life. 32 days ago, my dad has gone. In the beginning, I couldn't cry. Now, I can't stop crying about everything. Everything reminds me of him. His favorite stuff became my nightmare. I dream of him every day, too. One week from his death, I took my exams. I didn't remember how I did in them. I knew they were not how I supposed to do, but I am not aware of how I did. I wish I could have cried when he passed. I wanted to cry a lot but I didn't have the ability to face myself with the fact of his death.  He died between my shoulders. I just saw his color turned to yellow like how my grandpa seemed before death. I heard my brother told him some prayers that a person says before death and I just shouted at him to stop. I spent time squeezing his feet to make him shocked. I even talked to him, I said don't go, don't leave me, not now...

My First year in CSE

I always wanted to be in Computer Science. I never tried to challenge myself in this area, too. I felt like I always have this barrier not to go through it. I'm so happy that in the previous 4 months I pushed myself fast and strongly to go in this field. There is a lot of paths in front of me.  I was afraid that most of the students around me in my department have skills more than me. They are so smart and hardworking, too.  In these 4 months I've tried to:  1. get 4 stars in problem-solving on  Hackerrank 2. publish my first website on  GitHub 3. edit my account on LinkedIn 4. start my program in frontend development on Coursera 5. take more than a course on C 6. Start a course related to computer architecture.  7. Start reading about Deep Learning But, How under quarantine I could do all of that.  First of all, I knew how this is a competitive field.  1. I put a counter to know how much time I ...

My Story with Problem Solving

Hackerranck is a website full of problems that need to be solved by an algorithm or a data structure way. I knew about it while studying the Programming course at my university. The website is usable and you will like to solve on. My skills were so small and still, but I've reached 4 stars in the problem-solving path. which I'm so proud of.  I've solved 60 problems in 3 months, which is good compared to my level in programming. In my university, we learned how to code using Python 3 and I learned C, C++ on my own before. Hackerranck is consists of more than a path. There is a language path like learning Java, Ruby, Python, and so on. There is also a chapter related to data and statistics. Finally, it has a problem-solving chapter.  I think the biggest benefit I got from this experience that I don't need to fear before solving any problem also I don't mind taking more than an hour solving an easy problem. I always wanted to upgrade my way of solving, ...
