The first week of coding was a little bit of a headache. Yes i know some coding so some of it was review, but the part that wasn’t review i would say was the headache. But before I had started coding  this week I was a little worried, and this was because I had no clue what I was getting myself into. I had no idea what I would be working on and who I would be working with. I knew that I had some background in making websites but I thought it wasn’t going to help me.  But even if i didn’t have a background in making websites already it would not have mattered because you don’t need to know anything about coding. Everyone was starting with no knowledge about coding. On the first day that I actually started working with the code it was good because it was mostly review, but the second day  was a different story because I started working on newer things. The videos we watched showing us how to code were of a man, Nick. Nick would sometimes talk too  fast and i would fall behind. That was frustrating. After getting a rhythm it became easier. But, after the first week I feel better about all of it. But some things i have learned are “Fortune Favors the Brave” , “Stay Calm, Code On” , and “Help is always closer than you think”. BE EMPOWERED.
