Funny enough, while drafting up this post a couple weeks ago and re-categorizing some older ones, I found a previous post of mine with a similar topic from almost exactly a year ago. This one in particular will be more on the ongoing learning to code aspect and goals recap will be separate and coming…

{crafty} – Some Recent Works and WIP
We’ve made it to the crafty side of the studio! This will primarily be an image dump of selected projects I’ve been working on in the past few months to a year. In past years, I have been much more into drawing, doodling, design, and knitting, but they have taken a little bit of a…
CS50Web Search && Wiki
Now that CS50P is done and this site has been updated with backdated posts, time to move onto the next Harvard course, CS50Web (Programming with Python and Javascript). This course goes over how to create fullstack web applications using Python, Django, and Javascript. At first glance, the course appears to possibly take less time to…
CS50P Final: Average Reads
Ah, yes, we got there!! I finished the course! My estimate to finish was a little off but there is good reason for this; I redid my originally planned project around three times. The main requirements for the final project is that you need 3 functions, have unit tests per function, and take a bit…
2022 Goals Recap, Looking to 2023
The 2022 recap and 2023 goals has lead a bit into the new year! The draft has been sitting for a few weeks or so to see how the end of 2022 would be and it was pretty stressful due to travel issues so this is a bit later than planned. I found my past post where…
CS50P Part Three: Weeks 6 – 8
It’s here, I’ve made it! Honestly, this is one of the first courses I have started and just about to complete since learning to code years ago (yes really); I definitely fall for “shiny object syndrome” and would get easily distracted. This one definitely made an impression and kept me engaged for this long. This…
CS50P Part Two: Weeks 3 – 5
Did not expect to get to write another one of these so quick, but here we are: weeks 3 to 5 covering Exceptions, Libraries and Unit Testing. As expected, the learning curve for new topics and subjects grew with each new week and problem set to test our knowledge and how to approach and solve…
CS50P Part One: Weeks 0 – 2
I might’ve fallen into shiny object syndrome once more, but I’m feeling a bit more confident in this one! I had attempted CS50 last summer and fall but eventually dropped it; I thought I was understanding enough but didn’t seem quite relevant at the time and my confidence fell flat. Fast forward to this year,…
Rapid Goal Setting; Making Flexible Changes
May?? It’s MAY?? Okay, it’s May. Many of us have lamented over the past couple of years how we think about time and experience it, 2022 has been no different. It’s been almost halfway into the year, so I think it’s fair time to do a personal goal check in and see how things are…
2022: New Year && Goals
The first few drafts of this post were rehashing the last two years in a bit more detail than I’m sure anyone would ever want to read about again. Instead, it’ll be a high level overview of what happened and future goals for this year! 2020 had started on a high note of pushing my…
