Phase 1 Hacktiv8

Thanks God, finally I passed phase 1.

Yes, phase 1 is not as easy as phase 0 of course, It's little bit more challenging. But, so far I'm okay.

FYI, I should take phase 1 twice because I'm fail in the first month of phase 1. But, It's okay. In Hacktiv8 retake not a dull thing, it's usual and very common. If we not passed, it's not because we dump, we just need more time to learn all of that stuff.

Overall in phase 1, we learn about:

Week 1 : Logic and Basic Object Oriented Programming/OOP (Class)

Week 2 : Advanced OOP, Module exports-import, File System, Synchronous and Asynchronous process, Callback

Week 3 : Architecture Model, View, Controller, Promise, Database Schema Diagram, Structured Query Language (SQL)

Week 4 : Sequelize with PostgreSQL Database Management System, Express, Embedded Java Script, Partials, Helpers, Middleware and Session for authentication, and Crypto for password security.

Here, I won't tell about that things in detail.

I just want to share my feeling and my great experience as someone who has switch career and girl side of course, hehehe.

In phase 1 first month, I feel so hard, I study many thing in instant time. Actually I little bit depressed at that time because the gap between phase 0 and phase 1 is soooo far-far away. I'm shock. I'm not perform well. I loose my weight and lack of sleep time just to pursue my gap. But, the result say that it's not enough.

I'm understand, that Kak Tony as my buddy in my first month give me more attention. But, what I need just a more time. So, when the result come, I can predict that I'm fail. It's okay, I'm not soo hurt because I was predict the result before. I'm sure about it because on the last final live code, I really can't handle my error until the time is done. At that time, the first time I cry as louder as I can in toilet just to make me feel better. At that time I don't care about shy or everything. I can't handle that bad feeling. I never forget about that moment. And because of that Kak Semmi called me Devita Invoked means Devita cry. Hahahaha...

The second chance, the second month, I prefer called in phase 1 retake.

Oke, I get surprised because 'You-Know-Who' is my buddy. I can't describe my feeling. I just an ordinary girl, I'm afraid it's make me less focus cause I should play pretend not only everyday but every time. But, I believe I can. This is the destiny that I must live, right? At some point, the frequency of our interaction make me weak, but I always force my logic to think, to make me strong and forget everything in the past. Whatever happen, we should professional right?

But as long as time flies.. It's out of my expectation, 'You-Know-Who' deliver lecture and understanding well to me. I know better. And every afternoon, I get code review from him. It's really help me. He also good to deliver lecture in small class and I just realized that. Again, after difficulties there must be ease. Then, which God's favor will you lie to? May be, it's still a hurt in my heart but it's equal with what I get from him, a precious knowledge of course. Biggest thanks to 'You-Know-Who' who not give me formal stuff but also tips and trick to face live code. It's really matter.

Tomorrow, It's my first day in phase 2, I hope everything will be fine, Amin.

Maybe, I will miss his code review session, I will miss his lecture, I will miss how he approach me just to ask what my difficulties. But, live must goon. Maybe someday I will get wisdom from all of this.

I don't know, Will it be the last of our communication? But this afternoon not as before, He send me a little bit advice like Him that I know before. I don't know what is it God. is God giving me a little entertainment before I start fighting again? Please God, don't send me a guy who make me feel comfort if He not long last for me. I'm begging...

The last but not least, here my last pair project phase 1. I and Andreas a.k.a Etel make a web app called DocLoc. DocLoc is very simple version of HalloDoc. We can find a doctor around our location, know the tariff, and working hours, and of couse the rating. And the best thing is, we can make appointment to consult with the doctor via the app. The design is still very simple because we not learn so much design in phase 1. But, overall as a backend of this web app. I'm really satisfied.
