One Week To Go…
There is one more week of uni for me in 2008 left, which makes me half way though my second year… Scary! I’m not so much stressing out like most as I have planned ahead and I’m not doing my assignments last minute, which is a surprise. OK well one of them I have still got to do, The PED poster, I’m putting it off to be honest but I am half way through my Data Recovery Assignment! Yay!
I have had my final CCNA skills test which I didn’t think went well as I had a problem with the Frame-Relay connection which I think will hit me on marks but I haven’t had the confirmed marks back yet. Which brings me to placements, I have applied for a Cisco Internship. I think it’ll look great on my CV but I think I’ll learn so much if I get the job, I have my fingers crossed but I won’t hear back for a while I don’t think.
I have also got my car back from the body shop, a whole two weeks off the road, it was missed at 10am in the morning when it was freezing cold and I was walking to uni, but I have it back now and the work looks great! I have also had my wing mirror repaired from when it was hit during the first night on the road at my house.
I’m getting distracted by After Effects at the moment, I have seen some of its possibilities and thought I’d give a few tutorials ago!
Ahhhh
This week hasn’t all been fun and games but its not as if most weeks are. Uni deadlines are fast approaching and one assignment I havn’t really started yet. However I am looking positive towards it and will be able to make them, I have a CCNA4 skills test coming up which I’m not too sure about so I’ll be revising for that pretty soon.
My placement search is on the hills, although new placements are popping up I have found myself without the time to apply. I have got plenty of time however as most deadlines are for January so that will be a job for the xmas hols, however as expected I did not make the second stage of the GCHQ recruiment, I’m glad I tried though, somehow I knew I wouldn’t get through.
Last weekend I was down at the NEC on sunday afternoon helping my parents take their stand down at a show. At the time time is another hall at the NEC was the MPH show, didn’t get a chance to look round but there was some pretty sweet cars zooming around the car parks.
However this week hasn’t been a good week for my car, its finally got a problem with it. I suppose I’ve been expecting it, as I havn’t had anything major happen since I got it back in Mayand well this week with the lots of speed bumps and an emergency stop because of some stupid driver on the road. My front bumper decided it couldn’t hold on any longer and fell off, thankfully it fell over just as I was parking up at uni, so there wasn’t any drama on the side of the road.
Couldn't Hold On Any Longer
Lack of Front Bumper
Should be getting it fixed before the xmas hols so at the minute its hidden away, which is great I’m not spending money on petrol anymore! shame its now come down is price and is still falling, hope it stays that way.
Anyway until next time.
Look out for my review of my new D-Link DIR-655 router
