I got back from a vacation in Krabi, Thailand 2 weeks ago. I was there for 6 days and managed to finish 2 books. One of the books is Unfuck Yourself by Gary John Bishop – it inspired me a lot as I could relate it to my current situation so I decided to write […]
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 Week 1
We started with 10 people in the BootCamp and ended week 1 with 6. 4 people left the course due to various reasons and I could understand why a couple of them gave up. We were taught command line, Javascript, HTML, CSS and DOM from Monday to Wednesday. We worked on Katas and because we […]
Pre-camp Preparations
As I mentioned in my previous post that I received my welcome package from school 2 weeks ago and there’s a few assignments to be completed by tomorrow. Tomorrow. Being away the whole of last week for my holiday didn’t help but I don’t regret it at all because the trip was a dream come […]
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 […]

Pursuit of Happiness
I haven’t posted in awhile and to be very honest, I haven’t been on top of my game. I told myself I needed to get back to coding but I simply couldn’t. I didn’t know how to continue. Self-teaching without guidance isn’t easy at all. The school I signed up to recommended these two books […]
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 […]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby.
That’s right, I’m now learning Ruby and this song comes on in my head every time I’m on it. The song was quite a hit, no? Thomas sent me this link to get me started on Ruby as I am looking at signing up for a 12-week web development course […]
Hello, pretty.
Only when justified.
