The beginning of beginnings.

DAY 1:
My journey into the world of programming is a very recent one. It all began when the professor started teaching us what he considered the simplest part: how to transfer code into the editor and run it. I won't deny that I felt like a small boat adrift, facing what threatened to turn into a storm.
I won't lie—I still don't fully understand it all. Later, using the AI ​​Grok, I managed to create a "game"—and I put that in quotes because it feels more like a quiz than a real game. While trying to improve it, I discovered something I hadn't known about weeks earlier: Scratch. I quickly grew fond of it; for me, it was the first thing that actually made sense since we started exploring these topics. I had fun with it, and I’m still trying to improve the game I built there. I also learned this: it takes a lot of patience to improve and find your way in a world where the sheer amount of information can be overwhelming. So, I decided to start with something simple—yet something I sensed I would need: asking myself questions.
