Surviving a Coding Boot Camp Week 10

Week Ten: JavaScript Module

• This week at Tech Elevator, we focused on the JavaScript module.

• We covered topics such as functions, document manipulation, and event handlers.

• I feel confident in my understanding of JavaScript and have been able to help my classmates and the teacher.

• I'm relieved to be in the front end module after finding the second module challenging.

Enjoyment of Helping Others

• I really enjoy helping my classmates and the teacher in our programming class.

• Although the second module was difficult, I am excited about programming.

• I particularly enjoy working with JavaScript because of its flexibility and lack of strict rules.

• Our instructor even refers to JavaScript as "drunk uncle JavaScript" due to its lack of rules.

Preference for JavaScript over Java

• I prefer JavaScript over Java because of its flexibility and lack of strict rules.

• I feel more confident with JavaScript and have been able to grasp its concepts more easily.

• However, I am nervous about finding a job soon.

Nervousness about Finding a Job

• As my time at Tech Elevator is coming to an end, I am feeling nervous about finding a job.

• I have another baby on the way, so finding a job is crucial for me.

• I have been heavily networking and trying to make connections in the industry.

• I know that the job search process can be challenging, but I am hopeful for a positive outcome.

Vue Framework and Mixed Emotions

• Next week, we will be working with the Vue framework.

• I am excited about learning something new, but I have mixed emotions about it.

• In a future update, I mention that Vue is not fun and I am not having a good time with it.

• We will be covering topics such as components, routers, and event handling.

Graduation and Starting a New Career

• The course is coming to an end, with a few more lessons left and a two-week capstone project.

• My graduation date is approaching, and I am feeling a mix of nervousness, excitement, and anticipation.

• I am looking forward to starting a new career in tech and applying the skills I have learned.

• I know that the journey ahead won't be easy, but I am determined to stay positive, disciplined, and persistent.

Thank you for your support, and I can't wait to share more updates with you in the future!
