Maybe got ahead of myself
So I think I have to start even more from the ground up. The way I was sectioning out my layout wasn't an efficient or even really usable way of doing it and I think I just need to bite the bullet and learn...grids...
I just really don't know how to wrap my head about it so if like you have any ideas leave me a comment when I finally get that up and running as well :/ I think I need to layout everyone I want on my webpage and at least learn how to incorporate everything, even if it's not actually organized properly.
I've become so obessed with figuring all of this out and I'm worried I'm going to burn myself out or try to do too much then quit. That's why I think starting slow and letting myself take the actualtime needed to learn what I have to learn and be okay with things not looking how I want right away. I feel like this is a result immediate gratification being applied to myself. Like that's not how life works at all - and I know that - but its easy to pressure yourself to be instantly good at everything you start. That's definitely something I need to work on.Another awesome reason to have this website! It so nice to actually have a space to unload these thoughts and feelings in a place that genuinely feels like it's mine(regardlessofhowitlooks).

Finally getting somewhere
I've been trying to code this website ALL DAY. And this is what I have to show for it, which is pretty awesome in my opinion! I'm not a coder and all of this is new, but its a website. It's live for everyone to see. I think that's pretty dope
I am super into learning at the moment, but I'm also worried that I'll give up at somepoint :/ I tend to be a starter, not a finisher. But I guess the cool thing is that this wep page will be waiting for me if I ever do take a breakclass
BUT IM GONNA DO MY BEST TO KEEP THIS UP! I want to add so much to this website and seeing other people's is such an inspiration. I want to make an inspiration section to shoutout other people who kept me going. Bruh, I'm speaking like I've been training for the olympics XD
I have been dying for a sense of creativity and personalization from social media. It's so freakin stale and its energy sucking, honestly. This platform just lets everyone just be themselves. Whatever that is. Whatever they like. And that is AUTHENTICITY, which is almost impossible to find today. I can't wait to find other people I vibe with and connect on things we love
What i learned today
I learned so much in just like 12 hours. I think I'm pretty comfortable customizing 'div' script and I've been pretty good with making sure to add ';'to everything! I haven't had too much of a hard time remembering that which is awesome!
but the bane of my existance are GRIDS. I gotta take a break from trying to learn that because I was about to end it all! My boyfriend knows html and he says its basically a canon event for grids to be hard to wrap a beginner's brain around. So I guess I gotta do my due diligence, bleh :p
