Hi Mandela and welcome to Codetown! Hope you join some groups (like the OrlandoJUG!). Don't hesitate to post here, using your blog or in discussions in the groups, or in the forums. Get yourself a decent computer. Costco is my goto place. Or, you can even find great ones on craigslist or at garage sales. I got a used iMac on cl for $40 last month!
You might enjoy trying out Kotlin. It's a language that Google uses for Android. There is a Kotlin group with some very good articles by Amanda. Check it out, join it, post some results of your adventures.
All the best,
Mike
