Running on Code & Coffee

I’m not sure what’s keeping me alive anymore
the caffeine, the curiosity, or that one line of code
that finally worked at 3:17 AM.

Coding is wild…
One moment you feel like a genius,
next moment a semicolon ruins your whole existence.
But there’s something addictive about creating something
out of absolutely nothing
just a blank screen, and an overworked brain refusing to give up.

Between bugs, breakpoints, and bursts of motivation,
I’m learning that progress isn’t always loud.
Sometimes it’s just quietly fixing that one error
that nobody will ever notice except me.
Sometimes it’s just showing up again
even when the coffee is cold
and my patience is colder.

But here I am, still building, still learning,
still surviving on late-night thoughts,
early morning codes,
and way too much caffeine.

This is my little reminder:
everything looks tough until it clicks.
And when it finally does…
it feels worth it.
