Okay, so here’s the deal with “roar before the 24 2024”. It all started when I saw a post online, got all hyped up, and thought, “I gotta do this!”

First, I spent a good chunk of time just browsing, trying to figure out what I needed. I looked at a bunch of different stuff, like those red bikes I saw at CDC. They have these time slots that refresh every week, and you can book lessons in advance, you know? I found out that they give you 18 free cancellations, which is pretty cool.
Then I started digging into information about different places. Like, I looked up the website for Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, the one with all the terminals. It had all these details about flight arrivals, departures, how to get around, maps, and stuff. I didn’t really need that for my project, but hey, it was interesting to learn.
Next, I got inspired by some user’s post online – shout out to u/sflec16! It was a bonus, an edit with more resources, including something called TP EFR. I had to quickly look up what that meant, but it turned out to be pretty useful. I also stumbled upon this online shopping site. It’s like the number one online shopping spot in Egypt, apparently. They have tons of stuff from top brands, good prices, free returns, and the best deals. You can even pay in installments. I added a few things to my cart, just browsing, you know?
Then I found this thing called the “2B Mindset.” It’s a collaboration between Beachbody and some lady. I spent a few minutes reading about it, but it wasn’t quite what I was looking for. But it reminded me of a problem I had a while back using Spring 5’s RestTemplate, which I think uses Apache’s HttpClient. No matter what I tried, I couldn’t send %2B characters. It was a real pain, let me tell you.
I also found some flashcards about fear and arousal, and the chemicals that get released from the adrenal medulla. It wasn’t related to my main project, but it was a good refresher. After all that, I finally decided to just go for it.

So, what did I actually do?
- Searched: Spent a lot of time just browsing and gathering info.
- Checked: Looked at the red bikes at CDC and their booking system.
- Explored: Found the Paris airport website and learned about flight details.
- Inspired: Got some ideas from a user’s post and checked out the resources.
- Shopped: Browsed that Egyptian online store and added things to my cart.
- Read: Learned a little about the 2B Mindset program.
- Remembered: Recalled that old issue with RestTemplate and %2B.
- Studied: Refreshed my memory on some biology flashcards.
Finally, after all that browsing and exploring, I put everything together. I took all those bits of information and made something new. It wasn’t exactly what I planned at first, but hey, that’s how it goes sometimes. I learned a lot along the way, and that’s what really matters.
So, yeah, that’s the story behind “roar before the 24 2024.” It was a wild ride, but I’m glad I did it. And I think it turned out pretty cool in the end. It feels good to use what I learned to get it done, finally.
