Working on project 2 I've learned to really get excited about the little things. Even my small victories of figuring out how to do this or that get me really excited. One of my small victories included centering one of my headers (yeah I know it's just the simple things in life sometimes). Another was creating a hanging navigation bar. Although I don't claim to be a great web designer I'm definitely learning and beginning to better understand the design process. While my website still has a very long way to go I'm proud of myself for my efforts thus far given my limited previous knowledge and my lack of free time. I'm really beginning to appreciate people who design and continuously maintain their websites. It is something that has a lot more to it then one would initially think but either way I am very glad I have the opportunity to learn this skill.
Working on creating a website also makes me more observant to the multiple elements within other websites. I constantly find myself wondering how that was done or how can I use that element within my own website.

Excellent observation. I think one aspect of learning about designing websites, is becoming a more observant and knowledgeable user of them.
