Exploring the Digital World

-
Image
                    As we finish up the second quarter of our ICT course, I'm taking a moment to think about all the cool stuff we've learned. We've been hands-on, getting into the nitty-gritty of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Our focus was on the basics of HTML, text formatting, and making web pages look good.             First off, we cracked the code of HTML tags.

               I don't really buy into the whole idea of change. Honestly, it sounds a bit like chasing after a shooting star – dazzling but elusive. Instead, I'm all about growth. It's the kind of progress that's more like tending to a plant than flipping a switch. So, here we are, on the brink of 2024, and while everyone's chanting "New Year, New Me," I'm more inclined to steer clear of grand gestures. Let's keep it real and explore some down-to-earth resolutions that align with the belief in steady, meaningful growth.                The first pitstop on this road of growth – the art of saying no. Honestly, I've always been skeptical about the whole "change overnight" deal. Instead, I'm leaning into the idea of setting boundaries and learning to say no when needed. It's not about a radical transformation; it's about growing into the person who kno...
