Starting doing something you’ve never done before? Getting back into something you used to do? Is it fun and exciting? Is it challenging?
I recently starting to learn roller skating (quad skating). It is so thrilling! I can’t do a lot yet, I can barely stop, can’t skate backwards, and definitely no transitions. I can skate forward, scissor, scooter push, and I am getting tight with turns.
I take classes on the weekends, which are an hour, and then I skate 3 more hours in the regular session.
I am inching my way through the fundamentals, and I am not falling as often as I did just a week ago. I am wearing a helmet, because I care about my head, but I have become comfortable enough to take it off since it is not required, just wrist guards.
I own my own skates, Riedell R3s with Sonar Caymans (indoors), and Sketchers 4 Wheelers (outdoors), which I modified by replacing the plastic plates and trucks with Sure-Grip Super X. Now they are not so scary.
ALSO! I just got my first skate board! I walked into a local skate shop I had no idea existed until someone mentioned it, and only went in to see what offerings they had for roller skates so I would not have to order online. They got wheels and bearings, plus tools and protective gear, which is all I need and expected.
I walked out with an 8.5 Real deck (recycled), Ventura trucks, Slime Balls 78a wheels, Bones Reds bearings, and black tape. Assembly was free in-house and the dude got it together under 10.
I have yet to ride it, but I learned there is a skate park near me, so I have a lot to look forward to!
Edit: fixed details
That is a dope project. Really well defined. I think you already have a good programmers mindset just by being able to define a problem and solution at all, and so well.
Good luck on completing the course!
Wow thank you so much that totally made my day
No problem! You are doing great. Please share what you make when you make it!
