## M4 Reflection

Fork this gist and answer these questions to reflect on your learning experiences.

* What brought you to Turing?
  I came to Turing because I was tired of not having the appropriate skills for the career that I wanted. I felt relegated to
  low paying "women's work", either administrative jobs or teaching children. I had discovered that I was not much interested
  in the legal field, which is where I had planned to go some time after college. So, I decided that attending Turing and
  learning a new set of skills in 7 months (vs 4 years) would be ideal for me.

* Where do you see yourself after Turing?
  I have a difficult time envisioning myself after Turing. I've never been one to imagine the future too far out. I believe
  for this reason I've always been able to relatively easily make big life changes. That being the case, I still do not know
  what to envision after graduating except for a very general vision of myself working at a company somewhere. I can't imagine
  where, though probably Denver, I can't imagine when or where I'll be living or what sort of work specifically or who I'll
  spend most of my time with. It all feels rather overwhelming to even try to imagine and so, I usually don't bother.

* From concepts taught in class or your personal learning, what technical concepts do you enjoy exploring most?
  Now that we have begun learning JS, I enjoy looking at a new language and figuring out how it is similar/dissimilar to Ruby.
  I suspect I will always enjoy looking at new languages for this reason. I also enjoyed learning db query languages like AR
  SQL.

* What technical concepts do you enjoy exploring least?
  I don't particularly enjoy the complications/debugging of deploying projects to production. Figuring out which versions of
  which tools need to be used, other minute details that must be in sync - I don't enjoy it. Although I will say I do not hate
  it, which feels like a significant victory.

* What technical challenges are the most fun for you to solve?
  I only enjoy solving a challenge when I have an understanding of the challenge. Since being at Turing, I have often felt
  that I did not even understand the challenge and therefore solving it was not enjoyable at all. However, I do now feel
  (especially after repeating Mod 3) that I have reached a new level of understanding and I am able to see the objective
  of new challenges. For example, once I understood the required basic pieces to writing a basic JS program for Number
  Guesser, I really enjoyed researching jQuery and using HTML and CSS to create the game. When it comes to coding, I really
  think I enjoy most aspects of it when I possess a fundamental understanding of what needs to be done, why, and a basic idea
  of how.
