The top of the mountain

Oct 18th, 2017

     Here we are, top of the mountain final stretch. We just got done with our devops, despite the fact of me not liking devops at all, we have finally reached the top of hill and about to embark our journey way done. So one of the things we are required to do next is called a personal project, the project doesn't have to have everything that we have learned up to the point, but we are required to make it a fullstack project. There's a list of projects thats flowing through my head by one of the top projects that I have always wanted to make, that includes making a project using the ibm watson api or something with the marvel api. Whatever it is that I'm going to make, I'm going to try to make the accomplishment of making 5 personal projects.

  It seemed as if there was a lot going on with the instructors and the relationship of cs2. My cohort can be very intimidating as most of us are pretty skilled at this. So I"m going to have to do my best these next couple of days including next week to show my sense in belonging. Its not that I am trying to create some sort of competition between us, its more of me trying to prove a point and that I am worth something to the cohort. I have a lot to prove and so much to work with, but as a programmer I am confident that I can get these 5 projects done. Until then, its going to be next stop working  at this point.

Inspirations and passion for what I love: Vidcon 2018 post thoughts

June 23rd, 2018     I know I haven't been posting a lot on my personal life and what's going, but I will now start to make a comeback on what I have started. A lot has been going on since I last posted 2 months ago. It shocks me on how much can change in just a matter of a month!, but so much has been going on in my life both personal and also Software development.    There were a couple of things happening so far personal wise such meeting the girl who is making an impact on my life, discussing the future with my parents and also mental health concerns going on in my quarter life crises. All of these things are pushing me to become the person who I am destined to be and what is to come for in the future. For now as long as I am holding on, and having faith with the people who care for me and are around me, I think I'll be ok.   My career options and also future is the reason why my fellow lambdas read this. I have been focusing a lot on my software develop...

Inspirations and learning so much more

Hello,    Coming back from another class session and this time around. I am actually done with the first month of lambda school. The experience so far has been quite of a rocky start, but as time progressed, we are all now starting to get comfortable with each other (hopefully). By now we have just started our course towards the more advanced topics like react js and redux, along with data fetching protocols. We are almost done with our http/ajax sprint which consists of making a friendslist application that incorporates a middleWare type extension to handle data fetching protocols. We are learning so much on fullstack development and this is basically what I wanted in the first place.    Javascript has also being a part of my strong points this time around since I'm working on it everyday from this point. Pretty much my knowledge and growth for computer science is expanding and as of now. The best analogy that we have been taught was that your source of knowledge fo...

progress progress progress

Oct 9th, 2017    With so much that is going on, I notice a lot of things since the start of the program. My skills as a programmer are improving everyday, and its remarkable how much I have improved within just 3 months. The best part is, we're not even finished yet. By the time I write this post we would've reached the react native course which is close to being done with the full-stack javascript section of the school, afterwards we have our introduction to C/C++ programming which is majority of the time employers want. Reasons as to why they would want this so much is because of the fact that you have a good/basic understanding of what goes on under the hood.   So theres a couple of things that I noticed right when I first started the program, first thing was my ability now to tackle coding challenge problems, at the start being able to start a coding challenge problem was difficult for me, but after repetitive reps and constant thinking; my skills for solving these...
