Today I learned how much I truly enjoy technology, how great it feels to talk to other tech enthusiasts about tech. I also finished setting up a network connecting my two VMs, or at least I believe I finished.

Today in class, we worked on our electives. Since I finished my elective, I worked on my Percipio course for the week and was able to finish within the amount of class time we had.

We did our daily 15-minute typing and worked on our electives for most of the rest of class.

Today, I edited my portfolio and worked on recording it with staff. I had to retake the recording a couple of times because it was a lot to read at one time, and I eventually finished it before the end of class. I also talked with one of my co-workers about the wage project that we did last week.

I finished my portfolio today, and I recorded it.

Today we had our mock interviews. I was in a breakout room having the mock interview. Things were going fine when my computer glitched for some reason. I thought maybe the battery. I plugged in, and then a few seconds later, it went black. Called to find out if there was a problem in my area, and there was. She let me know it should be back on around 6 pm. WHAT A DAY!

Today in class, we did mock interviews.

Today I practiced typing using a regular keyboard instead of my laptop keyboard. It felt a little different, so I know I’ll need to spend some extra time practicing to get my speed back to where it usually is. In class, we continued working on our Portfolios, and both Mike and Marc spent time helping us understand what to include and how to improve our work. Overall, it was a productive day, and I made good progress.

I worked on my typing for the first part of class. Then I worked on my portfolio with refinement and colors. I also worked on my LinkedIn and looked at jobs for my portfolio.

Jose delivered an Introduction to Networking presentation.

I took a ton of notes. I still have a ton of questions about subnetting after having watching the Skillsoft module on the topic but hopefully things will start to make more sense as I get more hands-on experience with project work.

Great day overall.
