Day 67: Today was the day in my JavaScript course where everything stopped making sense. 😵‍💫🤔 a lot of wtf is happening right now. Think it’s time to go back and review notes, rewatch videos & try more practice problems. #100DaysOfCode #CodeNewbie

Day 68: Review time! I’ve decided to go back and revisit the last 9 JavaScript sections of my class, only 38 pages of notes (all hand written cus I’m old 🤣) Today I reviewed functions, arguments, return & went thru 5 exercises provided by my class #100DaysOfCode #CodeNewbies
