Hello everyone. I’ve been bad. My last post was almost 9 months back when I shared the great news of me landing my new role as a Software Engineer. I didn’t quite get into the details of where and what I’d be doing because one, I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it […]
I got an offer!
After a couple of bitter posts, I finally have something pleasant to share! As most of you who read my blog may know that I’ve been applying for a developer position since late March/early April and that my goal was to secure a job by end June in the technology industry as that would be […]
Have an ice cream and keep going.
I mentioned in my previous post that I had 3 interviews in the pipeline. Well, I decided to forgo the third one as I wasn’t bold enough to attempt the assessment that was sent to me. It’s in Java and I reckoned I needed to at least learn it first. That left me with 2 […]
Graduated!
I’m officially done with school! Yep, and I say official because I got my certificate. The past two weeks were all about refining our final project for our presentation 2 days ago. It was held at Microsoft’s Singapore office and it was nerve-wrecking for all of us. There were about 40 – 60 people in […]
Bootcamp: 9 Weeks Down
It’s 3 more weeks to the end of my coding bootcamp. I’ve learned so much over the past 2 months. During the second week of my course, I blogged about how I created a racing game and a portfolio site. 7 weeks later, with the help of another classmate of mine, we already created a site […]
BootCamp Week 2
I’m going to go straight into the coding I’ve did this week since I haven’t done that in awhile. We learnt Bootstrap, Handlebars and Express to create our personal webpage that includes our portfolio (the racing car game I mentioned last week) and MongoDB and Mongoose to store database in the backend for the form […]
Let’s go!
I received my welcome package yesterday. There is quite a bit to do from now until my orientation day on 11th January 2018. I’ve already set up a development environment on my laptop so that’s a good start. The school recommended some additional reading materials and there’s this one that speaks my mind so well […]
Closer to being dangerous.
It’s been 2 weeks and I’m only about halfway through the introductory sequence I mentioned here. I must say it’s a lot to process and absorb. I certainly see myself progressing as I can now read most of the page source and actually understand them – something I couldn’t do before. In other news, I […]
Learn Enough.
I have been having a quite a bit of fun lately. By fun, I mean coding fun. I’m actually (finally) enjoying learning the whole programming thing now and it’s become a little less frustrating. As I mentioned in my previous post that I’m intending to take up a 12-week course in January, I thought I […]
Hello, pretty.
Only when justified.
