Yep, it's a blog

Yep, this site had been one of the main things on my mind as of late, despite having abandoned it for about a year. I have finally started coming back once my winter break hit, and while I obviously wouldn’t consider myself competent in site building, my complete vision of this site has started to seem ever more plausible. It’s gotten to the point where I’m looking through other sites’ source code and questioning the foundational code on my site. Codecademy’s courses were, and still are, fairly useful in getting to where my knowledge is today, but the pacing definitely contributed to my lack of interest for a while. First you learn html, then having completed an entire course you learn that you need to do another course to learn a whole other language to do all the cool stuff. I’m still mid-way through that second course, Codecademy’s CSS course, but I have little desire to continue right now after learning the box model. After figuring that out, most of what I wanted to do seemed possible and everything else has been searchable.

This website in general has brought me a lot of joy and self-worth as I have tried learning to code on-and-off many times and I get to create something of my own. Back in high school, I was obsessed with helping build-up our student media site, especially the news magazine’s segment which I was a part of. I was on there whenever I could looking at article analytics and aiding in the site’s design wherever I could. I want to grow this site into a project similar, if not better, to that experience but with a focus on me and my interest. Once this site’s more complete, I’m a go full blast on my socials and really get this going.

Yap Yap Yap,

Mr. Yep
