I am proud of myself for being able to figure out pretty much all of it, apart from a few minor CSS details. The solutions helped me to figure out where I went wrong. I learned more about CSS; both about properties like transform and in how effective my skills are. I found it took me less time to piece together and figure out what I needed to do in order to get my CSS to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I felt, and currently feel, pretty challenged by the second part of the challenge in which we must add media queries. I understand what they are and how they&#8217;re supposed to work, but somehow they aren&#8217;t working in the way they&#8217;re meant to in my CSS. The rules I apply to the queries apply to the full website- meaning that the CSS changes even when I don&#8217;t want it to in the mobile design. I feel frustrated by this, but I know that at least I tried and the solutions will be able to help me next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A goal that has developed is to learn more about responsive design and learn how to fix mistakes that are keeping the media queries from working correctly. With CSS, I can pretty easily look through my code and decide what to do in order to make the CSS do what I&#8217;d like. With media queries being so new, I would like to continue to learn about them and how to successfully use them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A long-term goal I continue to have is to not spend too much time on assignments or stress out about them. I tend to be easily stressed out the second I don&#8217;t understand something; likely due to holding myself to high academic standards. Professor Mead has told me several times to not spend hours and hours on assignments, and instead to just my best. I will continue to follow this and not feel upset when I have yet to learn something!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, I was really challenged by the Sacramento writer&#8217;s group and zen music festival challenges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":103,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[240],"tags":[4,172,35],"class_list":["post-2005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-aad-086-sp25","tag-css","tag-media-queries","tag-responsive-design"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/103"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2005"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2005\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2007,"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2005\/revisions\/2007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/appliedartand.design\/lj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
