# — 6 The lost month

October 04 2021

The calculator project was the last project I worked on for The Odin Project program; there were certain circumstances in my life that caused me to lose my study streak; I shouldn’t have allowed those events cause me to lose my streak. But it did happen.
It’s been almost a month since I broke my study streak in The Odin Project.

I knew that if I went a day without studying, I would most likely simply stop for the following few days and leave it, but I had been wanting to come back for a long time and was just terrified of not remembering how anything was done.

I can also recognize that it hasn’t been that long since I decided I wanted this for me, that is, for my future. It’s difficult not to be frightened of failure after not knowing what to do with my life, but I have to accept that failure will always be there waiting for whatever new thing I’m striving to learn, and I will have to get back up. Get up and keep trying; I don’t feel good, but then I also feel positive that I’m writing this and that I’m motivated to finish the previous project I didn’t finish, which was the calculator project.

Finally, awesome news: I started school last month(that’s not the exiting part), and luckily, this new semester does include a new coding class. Web development! I’m excited to show off some of the things I’ve already learned.

Here I go.
