GSoC 2025

 Drafted, revised, got feedback (mentally, from myself mostly haha), polished, and finally hit submit on the proposal! It feels pretty comprehensive, outlined the pipeline modules, the timeline, potential hurdles... Pouring all that learning from the courses and the tests into it felt good. Now... we wait. Fingers, toes, everything crossed! Whatever happens, learned a ton already.

 Okay, tests done, now the real writing begins. The proposal. Need to show I understand LSST, DeepLense, the project goals, AND have a solid plan. Drafting sections on objectives, methodology, the timeline... This is where the deep dive into the LSST pipeline docs and the project description really matters. 

 Phew! That was a rush. Spent the last couple of days tuning the models, generating plots (ROC curves!), writing up the notebooks for Task 1 and Task 2. Calculating metrics, explaining the strategy... it's a mini-project in itself. Uploaded everything to GitHub, sent the email with the links, CV, weights. Fingers crossed the results look okay! Glad I got the ML/DL courses done beforehand.
