Week 2 is here!

Week 1 was crazy! Every time I begin to feel comfortable with one topic, I find theres yet another layer of depth to conquer. At times I found myself second guessing everything and re-reading everything over and over again. I learned that alot of coding comes down to "what the frick is this?" and "what the frick is that?" but its rewarding when things finally click. I found myself procrastinating at some points just lost in my computer screen. Luckily, I think I've found a way to make the learning experience more enjoyable as I go along. I was looking through my phone and came across an app I had forgotten about for at least a couple of years, it was my Nintendo Gameboy emulator! That's when the idea hit me. Games in the early 2000's were all simple coding much like the material that I'm currently studying. Next thing I knew I found myself on Github looking for older Nintendo favorites of mine such as Super Mario Bros or Pokemon. The plan is to create my own version of these games by going through the game files and changing the contents inside. I even told some friends about the projects and they were overjoyed at the idea and even wanted to try the games when I finish them! It gives me even more motivation to get good at this coding business so I can take on bigger and bigger projects. It's a massive amount of work, I'll need all the motivation I can get at this point.
