🎮 Playing the first Final Fantasy pixel remaster and it makes me so happy. The music especially. I have played this video game more than any other. It’s very soothing.
📚💬 “We can’t hide in romance. We have to find strength in it.” Adriana Herrera in today’s episode of Fated Mates
🎮 Downloading the Final Fantasy I - VI pixel remasters. Very excited!
Today’s Progress: Completed the freeCodeCamp certification project, “Learn Typography by Building a Nutrition Label.”
Thoughts: This actually helped me understand justifying content using flexbox as much as it helped me understand typography.
🍿 Watched Saturday Night.
A delight, specially crafted for sketch comedy nerds like myself.
Finished reading: After Hours on Milagro Street by Angelina M. Lopez 📚
So great. It made me cry. Jeremiah, the hero book, is a phenomenal example of an engaged scholar.
Today’s Coding Progress: Completed the freeCodeCamp certification project, “Learn CSS Flexbox by Building a Photo Gallery.”
Thoughts: This is where my conceptual understanding of CSS starts to fall apart. I’m definitely going to dig deeper into this topic before I move on at freeCodeCamp.
Later-coding update from Monday:
Today’s Progress: Completed the freeCodeCamp certification project, “Learn the CSS Box Model by Building a Rothko Painting.”
Thoughts: The basics of the box model were already quite familiar, but I really appreciated the reminder that we now have CSS properties (and have for a very long time) for things like making drop shadows, blurring, rounding corners, and rotating. Again, these are not new properties, but my internal sense of CSS is based on CSS 2.0 circa 2002, so these are useful reminders.
It’s just a terrible time for timelines. I’m mostly hanging out in my email inbox and Discord these days.
