Networks and Databases, Oh My

Yep, I'm trying to get through three classes in the next 9 weeks. By the time I'm done with my classes I will officially be insane.

And if I can get them done, then I will be down to the last 9 classes I need to take before I have my degree. Wow, that's both exciting and terrifying.

My mentor also told me, people tell her the certification exam for Security + is less intense than the one for Networks +, so I'm pretty happy about that.

I do find databases interesting. Not the fascinating I'd hoped for but interesting. Learning how many different programs are actually databases is a bit terrifying to be honest.

Music Man is working on getting his term finished, It ends the last day of June technically but he will likely need an extension because he is probably going to be having surgery before then. So much fun.

And Miss Goofy is taking a class on how to take a class online. I wish I were kidding about that but we now offer classes on how to take a class. On the plus side, she's nearly done with her first week's assignments and the class just began on Monday. Or at least Tuesday when I spoke to her about it, she was nearly done. She may have finished it last night.

Okay, off to finish the networks chapter and then to get some chores done.

Have a great week and go learn something!

More Networks?

I did mention I passed the FIRST of TWO network classes, right? If for some reason you don't remember me complaining about that class, you can see where I did here, here, here, here, here, and finally here where I announced I'd actually passed the class.

Well, I'm back to learning networks. Oh joy. This is more in depth and frankly, I'm going to be so glad to be done with networks when I finish this class.

On another note I highly recommend this program. I will admit I haven't used the online version but the original version is awesome. I love it. I used it when I home schooled Miss Goofy for both her schoolwork and for our household chores. Then the program sat for several years. I only realized about a year ago I could use it for me. So that's what I've been doing. Using it to keep me on track for my classes.

On another note, I'm enjoying my database class. It's pretty interesting.

I'm also looking forward to my Python class. Some days I wish I was in it now.

Have a great week and go learn something!

I PASSED!!!

Oddly enough it feels like old news now, but I did manage to pass my first of 2 networking classes.

I was so relieved.

And this week I've been really good about studying. Last week is a different story. I was on vacation and then I was putting out all the fires that invariably pop up when we go out of town.

This week though I'm diving into my database class and I'm working hard on my Network + cert class.

While I'm not really interested in networks, I am enjoying the database class.

And this term I did the smart thing and I reached out to my mentors as soon as I was ready to start the class instead of when i was in trouble. both of them emailed me back very shortly after I reached out to them. That made life a lot easier.

Okay, time for me to get some work done so I can watch Deadpool tonight.
