I took the time last night to participate in the University of South Carolina's code-a-thon meeting for the HackerRank Back2School Code Sprint contest. Arriving bright and early at 9PM, my fellow students and I cranked out code like no tomorrow. After working through the night for 12 hours, there were only a few of us left. We never got the solution to some of the problems, but it was great to meet with people just to solve some problems. I hope we do it again next semester.

I'm currently sitting in 106 place out of 500+ coders. It wasn't a bad night at all. I guess I'll work on some personal projects now. I'll probably start something new. Stick around and see what happens!
