Been a while

I figure I need to get moving on this blog thing. I met some great people at GDI SF, have attended more meetups - one over at GitHub..woah, nice digs - and have been officially accepted into Hackbright! It's hard to defer Hackbright to fall, but I have a lot of ground to cover between now and then, not the least of which is to finish out my current work contract. I'll need to squirrel away as much money as I can to pay for tuition!

I was supposed to be a few weeks in to Code Union: Web Fundamentals course at this point. I had interviewed, been accepted, started on pre-work, paid tuition in full and they emailed me a mere 4 days before the start that they just decided not to do that course at this time. Not cool, Code Union. While I was really disappointed, I can evenly say that it's probably for the best. I will keep on learning on my own, while working to pay the bills, be a mom, and then when the time is right, hope to jump fully into Hackbright.

As it turns out, the latest demo day for Hackbright was held at the same place where my husband works. Unfortunately, we were out of town for spring break, and I missed it. Can't wait to see what the spring cohort comes up with for projects - hopefully I can make that demo day.

On my plate this month: Learn Python the Hard Way, Python for Kids and a little more work on Git/GitHub.

Code on, coders!
