#hartl tutorial

I completed 4 chapters from Hartl's tutorial today. It has mostly been setting up, understanding the file structure created when rails new is invoked and a general look at Ruby in the context of a Rails application.

We are yet to get to the more important parts of the tutorial, but the rate at which I'm studying, I should be done by the end of this weekend! (Yes, I have no fun plans for the weekend because I wasted last week by not doing anything remotely related to coding!!)

Over the last few days I've been so distracted that I have gotten no solid work done on the hartl tutorial. Bad, very bad. So I'm imposing a coding bootcamp on myself. This self-imposed bootcamp will include coding, eating-coding-pizza-coding-maybe some sleep-coding-coffee-coding. Not in that same order, but you get the drift. 

My goal for today is to work on Hartl's tutorial. Not sure how much I'll be able to finish in a day, but I'm going to keep on going till I'm done.
