We aren’t supposed to discuss our grades (well, at least not with the class), but suffice it to say I was INSANELY pleased with mine–It was in the higher category. Overall, I’d say we all did great. We did a demo, where we showed off our websites–everyone had great sites! I had a good giggle because two people did sites devoted to Disney World. We have a very good friend who, in turn, has crazed family members who are GAGA over anything Disney, to the point where their entire house is decorated with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, etc. If my classmates go live with their pages, I’m sending the links for my friend to send to his family.
The rest of the day was devoted to self-study in preparation for next week, punctuated by a meeting with our instructor and our manager for the program. They informed each of us, individually, that we were good to move forward with the rest of the training, and asked if we were in.
Am I in??? Let me see…
Door #1: Meetings featuring tall, towering arguments over whether or not the sentence should have one or two “twos” in it, or is it “to” or “too” or should we just pick a code, or…
Door #2: Creating, coding, and engaging in the most fun I’ve had in a very long time?
Really…there is no choice.
Honestly, there hasn’t been a choice since I did that first web development challenge for the program. I created some basic HTML and CSS code, fired up the resultant page and–VOILA! I’d created a real page!!! I mean, how can you top that? Honestly, I have to keep going, if for no other reason than I need to get my new website outfitted with JavaScript and anything needed to make it a real, functioning site.
I’m looking forward to the next chapter…
Congratulations!
