Since I want to plan each week into individual days, I want to make similar script to display that as well.<\/div>\n<div><i><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.scummvm.org\/vyzigold\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2022\/05\/u6ErA4A.jpeg\">My wallpaper now<\/a><\/i><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Maybe start coding a little bit earlier<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>If I feel like I have everything prepared and am in the mood, I might slowly start coding at the weekend.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Because from today the 3 weeks of studying for exams are over, I can finally start focusing on the project again and give an update on what I want to achieve in the following days.
