Like what the title says, yes. At long last, I’m starting my own blog.
Actually, I’ve been planning on writing my own blog ever since I was 13 years old. Just to write about my programming/music/teenage life journey. My mom gave me the idea to name it as Notes & Codes (Notes to mean musical notes and Codes for programming) and I thought that is pretty cool, so why not start it? After all, nothing bad’s going to happen and a simple blog won’t harm anyone, right?
Well, years passed, and I’m a 16 year old girl without a single blog post.
So why didn’t I start it?
Or more to the point, why didn’t I start writing on that day, a 13 year old girl beginning her journey as a programmer and a pianist?
Because I doubt myself.
I doubt that anyone will be interested in what I have to say. There are tons of blogs out there about programming and music and the like. What would anyone gain from me, a girl who is just starting out in this path? Also, I doubt that my skills are enough for me to share, and for everyone to know. I doubt that I will ever be ready to share.
And suddenly, after 3 years, I’m writing my first blog post.
I guess it finally hit me, that writing about my experiences is essential in my chosen career path. I come to realize that although I consider my projects as “unpolished” and “not perfect” yet, sharing it will help me get feedbacks, which will help me become better. And who is to know if someone might find my blogs useful? I would never know unless I try…and start writing.
So yeah, welcome to Notes & Codes 🙂
