📖 Day 40 — Not Perfect, But Still Here

It’s been a while since I wrote.
Life happened — exams, projects, assignments, research work.
Some days, I didn’t show up at all. Other days, I just did the bare minimum.

But when I open GitHub and look back at the last 40 days since July 15
I see almost all green boxes.
And honestly, that feels good.
Because even if some days weren’t perfect, I kept showing up.


✅ What I Did Today

  • Learned a bit of CSS

  • Nothing heavy — just slowly easing back after midsems

  • Midsems are finally done ✅ (though the datesheet for the next round + internals is already here 😅)


🧠 Reflections

Consistency isn’t about never missing a day.
It’s about not quitting when you do.

The flow got disrupted, yes. But I’m not starting from zero.
I just need about a week to wrap up projects, assignments, and research work — and then I’ll be back with full force again. 🚀

For now, Day 40 is alive. And that’s enough.
