Introducing CSS

August 29, 2019 1 Comment

Hello World, seems quite easy to say, doesn’t it? But do you see the page you are reading this on, see how colorful it is? That is HTML and CSS in a beautiful intercourse. HTML is responsible for the texts and the entire webpage but the designing itself is supported by CSS. The full meaning of CSS is Cascading Style Sheets. Cascading implies something that follows an order downwards, this means that as you write your code, it follows a particular order..making it such that the code at the top gets implemented before the code at the bottom. Style Sheets are basically self explanatory, a sheet for styling and designing your webpage.

In my CV, I updated it using CSS only and it looks much better and appealing. I started off by setting a margin to the top and bottom by using padding. Now, margin is the space outside something. While, padding is the space between the container and the content(inside something).

I proceeded to use class and id to specify what colors I wanted for a particular element. IDs are used uniquely, with single elements. Classes are used for multiple/various elements. As you will see, I used id for the name(Zainab Jimoh) and class for the various subheadings like experience, education, skills etc.

There is an image element in CSS that you can use to style an image, I used the tag object-fit: cover to style my image, this simply means that I zoomed in and made the picture a square.

I removed the initial tabular state that my webpage was and used aside and float tags to move some of my content to the right and create a kind of column illusion. A handful of what I did was trial and error basically, but after a lot of trials, I must say I am quite proud of the end result.

Attached below is a screenshot of my webpage:

Paris: A trip to remember.

August 20, 2019 No Comments

Is this real? Is this actually happening? My husband just woke me up and told me to get dressed, it is 6 in the morning. He says we are going to Paris. Paris!!! The Nigerian woman in me could not believe it. My lifelong dream is to visit exotic places all over the world but I didn’t know how to go about it.

Barely two hours later, I’m on a flight to France. I had to renew my international passport a month ago. I renewed a blank passport, chai.

On the flight, my husband finally tells me how he planned the trip. He heard about a travel website that would plan the vacation of a life for you with no stress. The name of the website is https://timbu.com/ and this website has everything you need to know about wherever you are going. It is quite different from normal travel websites because here, there is a detailed description of where you are going. In my case, Paris, there are tips on moving around in Paris, the currency, and of course, hotels.

Above is a screenshot taken from my mobile of how the page looks https://timbu.com/france

We got to Paris about 6 hours later, give or take a few minutes. The sight was breathtaking. France is definitely rich in culture, and Paris is not exempted. Walking down the streets of Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, we couldn’t help but do some shopping. And also, ate a late lunch of croissants and lattes. We didn’t quite hurry to go to our hotels to settle in cause timbu.com had already taken care of our bookings. The trip lasted for four days, each day better than the previous. I can’t wait to tell all my friends about timbu.com and how it can help you escape to any location without a lot of stress.
