Category : Technology

Introduction 

Picture this: You are young, let’s say in your early twenties, and you have the desire to code. It could be that you saw the Treehouse ads on YouTube, or you may have close friends and family that are into “developing something”. However, you just can’t put your finger on what it is that you want to pursue. Now, at this point, you have no idea about the options available to you. You go through Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, podcasts, blogs etc… just to put your finger on this new idea that you want to pursue. Soon enough, inspiration hits you, the bulb in your head lights up and illuminates the whole room. Guess what? You want to be a Web Developer — but where do you start?

My heart had been beating for years now. I started at fifteen but wouldn’t finish until five years later.

LOVE BEING MISERABLE

Category : Life

Everyone has something they are shooting for or working towards. Everyone has a creative artist in them. Unfortunately, most of us allow the spontaneous, creative side of us to be beaten by adults or other authority. We feel as if these ideas and feelings should be left in a child’s place. Some of us fight back against the temptation to do what our heart longs to do. It may be because we feel pressure and doubt from others. It ultimately falls back on us giving in to our own doubts and fears. It sucks when we can get in the way of ourselves and become our own enemy.

How can you win against yourself? You may have to enjoy being miserable.

I believe everyone goes through the same stages in life. Those stages only come up when you are closing in on your dreams. The key words here are CLOSING IN. The closer you are the stronger resistance comes to clip your wings, then laugh as you fall on your face. Yes, it sucks to know that while you are doing good life will try to ruin everything but it’s true. There is a way to get around this though. Are you ready to find out how to win this constant game called “Life”?

Came to a conclusion

I ran into a little problem. I understood enough HTML to markup any page. I may not be a JavaScript master but simple interactions or behaviors aren’t a difficult task for me to make happen. Plus, jQuery and the documentation, tutorials, and resources built around that framework can get me up and run on anything. I’m getting craftier with CSS3, well I should say SASS. All these starting foundations are great.
