Typing did not go very well for me today. I may have to rest my arms lower and readjust my seating. I chose to go first in my check-in, as I did not want to worry myself too much with overthinking. The check-in was wonderful and greatly appreciated. Tips and tricks really continue to flow forward and progress my re-learning. I enjoy the genuine enthusiasm and support from this community! Working on electives has been fun for me, though I need to learn to focus on aesthetics last, not first. Information first, aesthetics to follow. Additionally, our challenge to hold Zoom meetings together towards the end of class became a fun, solid, wonderful, and prideful experience. The final meeting I made it back to was a fun journey; we all handled and supported the meeting with teamwork and communication. An extra positive end to class this evening! Thank you all!

Today I completed a disk partition. I installed Ubuntu onto the same VM where I installed Windows 10 Pro yesterday.

Participated in the check-in, listened to insights from Carrie and Devin, learned ways I can improve, contributed job goal perspectives and a request for some insight into professional compliments; worked on my portfolio, worked with Marc on SlidesCarnival, and reviewed how to add and identify the type of gif subject I want on the web, learned from Mike how to add a Google Chrome Zoom extension, then how to set up a Zoom meeting and pasting a list of emails into guests; then attending classmates’ Zoom meetings, sequentially.

Today was a full day of working on our Core Training Portfolio, our monthly check-in, and creating Zoom meetings. I have completed my Core Training Portfolio. Hooray! I found it difficult to stay focused on what was on the agenda besides our portfolios. I was determined to complete it before the end of the class today. That way, tomorrow I can put the finishing touches on it if need be.

Throughout class, we all had our monthly check-in. I had a pretty good evaluation and feel about it. It always feels like I’ve stepped away from class to go to the principal’s office. This is my last monthly check-in before graduation. Time has gone by so fast.

Lastly, we all worked on creating Zoom meetings. Mike was able to give all of the graduates a chance to create. I didn’tthink that I was able to get mine because I was working so hard on my portfolio.

Started the day by clocking into HomeBase. Then we jumped into this week’s lab. Also met with Carrie for our monthly check-in. Then did the “What I did today” post before clocking out of HomeBase for the day.

I started the day by clocking in with Homebase. Then I continued working on my project. I also installed Ubuntu and its clone. I also wrote down the ticket on osTicket. At the end of the day, I post ” What did I do today? ” then I clock out of Homebase.

I attended my monthly check-in. I feel that this check-in was more positive than the last one.

I did work on my Core Portfolio. I tried to jazz it up with pictures in the background.

We worked on setting up our Zoom account. Then scheduled a zoom meeting amongst my fellow students.

We worked on our disk partition labs. I got as far as combining Windows and Ubuntu. Then I was having issues, and I reinstalled Ubuntu. So I asked Jose to help, and after a while, I basically had to restart the combos. That is a little ughness, but it is good practice, and now that I understand, it should go smoothly. I also like the fact that Jose took the time to help because I have a better understanding of the project. We then did our monthly check-in with Carrie and Devin. I like that they actually check in to see where you are.

Practiced typing, did good. Worked on my Core Portfolio, due tomorrow. Met with Carrie and Devin to check in and see my progress. Learned how to schedule Zoom meetings. Loved it.

Today, my main responsibilities as an administrative associate are my daily task for the day to research and post job listings onto the CTP skill center website, and my main task for the day is to research general emails and contact information for foundations from a provided list and then send email messages to the applicable foundations. I logged more general emails and site forms for provided foundations to be contacted, filtered out foundations without proper contact sites and general emails and messaged around 7 more foundations using the provided email template.
