As both a verb and a noun this is true for me. My family rocks in terms of what they will do to help me - and it is reciprocal. They are also my rock. I have the best family ever. First, we looked online at the route to Hackbright. Then, we literally all got into... Continue Reading →

Today I drove up from Los Angeles to the San Francisco bay area. It took about 8 hours and several stops. I have to admit - I am still in love with my car. It is a 2015, but I just love driving that car.... It is starting to seem more real to me that... Continue Reading →

Another day of html review... Nothing new in this lesson, just lots of review which is perfect because today I cleaned up my last few things in my house in San Diego and drove up to LA. My brain is a bit fried, but it is best to code under all conditions, I am sure... Continue Reading →

My mom left today, after literally packing up half of my house. I cannot thank her enough for all of the help! New Lessons Today I spent a bit of time of the new lessons, which involved html. I admit that because I  spent a lot of time doing html in Girl Develop It classes,... Continue Reading →

Okay, so last night (really, this morning) I had a meltdown. I stayed up until 1am on Sun 3/27 and Mon 3/28, trying to finish the prework. I finally finished the lessons last night around 8pm and then began trying to write the program we were asked to write. It was a bit crazy and... Continue Reading →

Today I did my profile for Hackbright. I didn't have any trouble with the basics but defining my career and goals in 100 characters - even Twitter allows for more! Then, I actually went back and did the lessons from the last homework assignment that I didn't finish  - I didn't actually need to do... Continue Reading →

Debugging Just when you think you've debugged everything, you discover you didn't. So, I drew this little tree with all of the options I had nested in various if/then/else statements. I started testing them and determined that they didn't work properly! What surprised me was that the error was not obvious in looking at the... Continue Reading →

I worked quite a bit and around 2:00pm my co-workers surprised me with a cake that actually said Hackbright on it! I was just amazed. I was there for 10 years (well, one week short of 10 years). If I write more, I will cry, so I'll stop on that track. I came home after... Continue Reading →

The amount of stuff I have to do is finally starting to sink in. I am swamped at work and at home. I haven't really slept in weeks. Yet, there is this sense of excitement and fun! I had dinner with my very best friend in San Diego and it was so enjoyable! Three and a... Continue Reading →

We received another homework assignment. The first part of the homework was essentially a style guide for Python. At first I was perturbed: wasn't it enough that I was going to know the language? Why did I need to indent 4 times or only have 79 characters on a line (or 72 for blocks)? Then,... Continue Reading →
