I definitely failed. (The Prework assessment) I had 30-40 minutes left by the time I got to the third part of the assessment that’s 60% of the score. I definitely learned a lot, and I’ll be trying again. Now I’ll decide if I go through the 4 weeks of the prequisite course again or if…

Tomorrow, I take the assessment for a coding school’s prerequisite course. I might fail. Not even joking. I’ve learned a lot in 4 weeks, but what I’ve learned mostly is copying code snippets. I’m sure with more and more repetition, I can understand JavaScript on the conceptual level. That’s kind of the goal for me.…

Today move by pretty quickly, and I can’t recall much of it. I put some honey castor oil, And egg yolk in my hair for a few hours.It’s a home remedy for regrowing hair. I found a young lady who did it for nine weeks. She vlogged her results on YouTube. Plus it’s just cheap…

What gives me joy is building things. It’s the best part. Second best part is brainstorming, I think. That’s all I want to do: solve problems by building things. I was thinking this morning — when I initially blew off writing — about creating a mastermind group. It’s not the first time I’ve thought about…

I see the tattoo on my left side regularly. It’s big and stretches from bottom of the armpit to the base of my love handle. The bottom has faded quite a bit, but the top looks it could’ve been inked a few months ago. In a serif type (looks like Cambria it Garamond) and all…

While driving, sometimes I think about being hospitalized, I tell myself that I’d get so much writing done. I might even watch Seinfeld. I definitely rewatch Boondocks Seasons 1, 2, and 3. If you know the Boondocks cartoon, you know why. My poor MacBook wouldn’t get any breaks.

Today, I wrestled with my obsession for perfection*. These periods of reflection seem to happen more frequently. I’m sure it’s because I have A LOT of content I want to create right now. One thing that’s taken way too long to put out is a comparison list of audio hosting platforms. I put it together…

I could be a more patient man. Or maybe not. It’s hard to know if I become more patient with age or less. I spun my wheels a lot in some JavaScript homework. Did some giving up. Cussed into the air. I’d like to learn faster because there’s other shyt to do. I went at…

My best friend is a reptile. For a long time, I didn’t care about the sex of the tortoise I adopted in April of 2012. I called it “Annie” and rolled with feminine pronouns. Turns out Annie is a boy. Recently, I decided to Google “gender of Sulcata tortoise?”. The reason for my search is…

I get a lot of inspiration from people. When I’m working on a draft, I like to go to my favorite breakfast spot and play music through one earbud. Mostly, my head is down in the laptop, but I’m watching and listening to what’s going on around me. On the surface, it’s just logical that…

The WordPress app has really nailed the RSS reader feature. I also use it to post these. If the site is built on WordPress, you just add it by searching title or domain name the BAM. I like smartly built things. It reminds me that one of the first personal projects to develop is an…

Something else about Sabio that sticks out to me is the application process. As someone that obsessively thinks about sales, I noticed that when I clicked the “apply” button I received an email from someone that gave me info and asked for questions. That seems relatively standard. I’d expect even a phone call the next…
