    Growth like this is always nice to see. Kinda makes me wonder - what keeps you going week after week? Habits? Straight-up grit? Either way, love the energy.

    Wow! Congratulations on all the wins! I am going to check out that " Please Adopt Me" game on Steam. It looks pretty interesting.

    I am on CodeAcademy too but on the Computer Science path. I need to start documenting my wins like this so I can have a reminder of how far I've come. Great job!

      Thank you! 😃

      Of course. I must warn you that it is a VERY difficult game. Not because writing commands is that hard (can be of course if you forgot about them), really but because the way the game is made. I feel it is made in a way which makes you easily frustrated. You might see my review there from one of my heightened frustrated moments.. 😖 You will know what I mean when or if you try it out.

      Awesome! Codecademy is great, it was the second code-learning platform I found to learn to code online on (the other one was made for people who has never touched code in their lives before so I did not really belong there considering I came there after been learning C++ on my own from a very thick book on teaching yourself C++ and before that I learned HTML and BBCode on my own). I learned from that site for months before I quit for Codecademy though. I recall I kept waiting on when I would learn to "code for real".. it is real coding you learn on there of course but I got tired of block coding) but unfortunately it does not offer lifetime access like W3Schools still does and CodeCombat used to. I love lifetime access!

      That sounds like an awesome idea and I would love to see your wins! ✨

      Thank you so much again! ☺️

    Congratulations.

    Allow me please to share a piece of mind.

    I see you have some kinda successes in learning and education platforms, but I am missing some real life project.

    I would be glad to see what matters to you expressed in code project. You can start with analysis, system design and continue to prototyping. These instant gratification sites are great training ground, don't get me wrong, but they just whip your mind with undercoocked meal. I believe you know what I mean.
    Express yourself in code, out of the blue or either through some framework, but, create someting which is relevant or related to your desired career.
