Update on my trying to authenticate user identification on my project: nothing happened. I tried but kept running into dead-ends. But I learned something pretty cool.

To-do: Finish sign up page, log in page with full functions such as checking inputs in both client-side and server-side, using passportjs to authenticate users, securing passwords with bcrypt. Remember to: finish water bottle of 1.5L, stand up every hour for 2 minutes, and not be too harsh on myself if my eyes or my …
I ran today after more than a week since my last 10K run, and I could barely moved 3km. My right ankle hurt a lot, so I stopped running after 1.80km or so, and I walked the rest of my 3km. Well, I started after that many days frozen, so I guess this will help …

What I learned/try to understand today: Async and API. And it’s actually really fun! Except for when it’s not. I still cannot really explain these terms to people who are not familiar with JS or coding concepts in general though, especially in Vietnamese, but it’s getting there.
