GA WDI Day 3

Today was all about CSS. I honestly don’t even know where to start. The first half was review for me. It was nice being able to get that homework done so quickly. It gave me some confidence going into the rest of the day.

The third lesson was on the beginnings of Javascript and Object oriented programming. Most of it was review. However, we did go over a couple things that I didn’t know. Like creating an object in Javascript = var Object = {}; We then went on to creat attributes and behaviors for our objects. Very good practice, as well as a great introduction into how Javascript really works.

Last lesson of the day was not a lesson at all. We were given a screenshot of a website, a folder of images, and told to re-create. I started off on a roll as I decided to just bang through all the HTML coding. That took all of 45 minutes. The CSS took the next three hours. And, I didn’t even finish. hahaha… I feel like I am on the right track. I loved this exercise. Taught me how to be resourceful and to keep trying things until something works.

All in all, today gave me a true glimpse of how intense this course will be getting over the next 11 weeks. This week is almost over for pete’s sake. ok, gotta go.
