27th october 2020 – an update

Just feel like writing something at the moment, so here I am. Let’s see… How have I been recently? Haven’t been making much progress with the Web Development online course. Been kind of busy at work, didn’t really have much opportunity to slip in a little “study time” here and there. Only thing I can […]

21st October 2020 – an update

Just started an online course on Web Development on Udemy.com, taught by this Dr.Angela Yu. The teacher has a really sweet voice and is very well-spoken; however she speaks in an extremely… Elaborate manner. No biggies though. Speeding up the playback speed of the videos by 1.25X kind of fixes everything. What matters most is […]

Today, I’ve successfully coded my first little game of “Tic Tac Toe” with Python. Granted it is an assignment for the online course that I’m doing on Udemy, and the layout of the structure for the game has already been laid out for me, but I’ve debugged and added a couple more extra features than […]

Day 75 – DIY Sharpening Templates

Went to Plaza Singapure in Dhoby Ghaut for the first time since weeks. Now that retail businesses are allowed to open again, I headed down to the “Art Friend” and bought some crafting material, namely the 3mm brass rods required to finish making my DIY sharpening templates. I didn’t loiter. Took the train down, headed […]

Day 74 – Retouching Butterfly Coin

Felt that I didn’t cut deep enough on the wings of my butterfly; there are tiny patches of white where the black paint doesn’t cover. This afternoon, I retouched the wings again, this time, making sure that I’ve made deep and even cuts across the existing cuts, throughout the wings. I have also made it […]

Day 73 – Another Beetle Coin

Engraved another beetle on a 500 Korean Won coin. Not too bad. I could have done the shading a bit better. I’ll be returning to work next Monday (22nd June), thus ending my “Circuit Breaking Stay Home” period. It’s been a crazy 70 odd days, but I feel I’ve managed to make use of this […]
