10. Sunday HTML day (Day 6)
Try, Try till you feel you haven't done enough!
I've just started my journey in learning to code and using Hashnode to chronicle my learnings and experience. Besides this, I work full-time and dabble in vlogging, podcasting, drawing, startup ventures, and fitness training.
I had wanted to study at least 8 hours today. Been mentally preparing for it all week. This is how it turned out:
| DURATION | WHAT I DID |
| 8:30 - 9:00 am | Breakfast |
| 9:00 - 9:30 am | a bit of relaxation, catching up on stuff |
| 9:30 - 10 am | Practicing GitHub commits (30 mins) |
| 10:30-13:45 | Study HTML/CSS (3.5 hrs) |
| 14:00-14:30 | Lunch |
| 14:30-16:30 | Attempting challenges and practice exercises (2 hrs) |
| 16:00-18:30 | Personal matters |
| 18:30-19:00 | Dinner |
| 19:00 - 21:00 | Attempting challenges and practice exercises (2 hrs) |
| TOTAL STUDY TIME | 8 HRS |
Yeah!
But I still feel I didn't accomplish much. Felt I was really slow and could've grasped things faster & better.
I did build 3 single-page HTML websites with basic CSS styling. It involved watching course videos, referring to W3Schools, asking questions to fellow students, and just trial & error.
I am confident with:
Git commits
Starting HTML files
Basic sections, articles, ordered lists, unordered lists, upload images, connecting pages
Not very confident with:
Div
Classes
Formatting classes in a separate CSS file
Block formatting
Another reason I am not satisfied with the day is that I was unable to complete all the Week 1 background reading, practice exercises, and challenges :( Next is Week 2 and study is piling up! Tuesday is my next class and tomorrow (Monday) evening is all I have for the pre-class reading.
I must stay focused, do my best, utilize time well, and take 1 day at a time.
Good night.
