Hello, World!

My name is Salwan Shathar, and I am currently a second year student at UC San Diego studying computer engineering.

Coding Experience

My coding journey started out back in highschool on Java for AP Comp Sci. Ever since then, I have been interested in programming applications, and so I have picked up more programming languages along the way, including C, C++, C#, and ARM Assembly. I have also had some and continuing to build experience on game development using Unity. Through programming, I learned Einstein’s quote figuratively and quite literally:

“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

With all these years of coding, I can sum up my daily schedule with this code snippet:

while(!onSchoolBreak)
{
    eat();
    code();
    work();
    // sleep();
}

Little About Me

I have lived almost half of my life in the US. I lived the other half in the Middle East, Iraq and Syria. Outside of academics, my main hobbies are:

• Playing Music
• Tennis
• Working out
• Hiking
• Catching up on anime
• Listening to music (this is currently my favorite song)

For my life goals, I currently have (rather vaguely):

• Graduate High School
• Get into college
• Graduate undergrad college
• Work in the industry
• Go back and teach

It is still a work-in-progress, but it will get completed with time and effort.
