Super-hero quiz...Kinda fun. I'm a Green Lantern. Haha. But it's kinda true I guess. I am a bit hot-headed, not sure 'bout willpower but good imagination...for sure.
It's kinda ironic that I actually dropped out of the PC/Networking all because I was sick (and fasting at the same time). But I've e-mailed my I.C. requesting a transfer to PC/Software Applications. The training for that starts in December so it should give me enough time to recover.
After doing 2 days of Windows Server 2003 training I realized one thing, it ain't as hyped-up as it seems to be (talking 'bout hype, Hady's the new SI! so much for the mumbling maggot Jonathan). Setting up a network can seem fun and all that but configuration is sickening. Imagine having 30 different parts and in each part having the same amount of settings to configure. You've got to set the users,their profiles, global groups, domain local groups, set the sharing and security, do the permissions and a whole lot of other stuff I didn't learn 'cause I stopped after 2 days.
The fact is this. It's still a competition even though it's training. At the end of the WIN2K3 training there was going to be a 4-hour elimination test in which they cut 24 of us to 12. So on Wednesday, my flu was so bad I woke up at 7.00 a.m. and by 7.03 a.m. I had sneezed more times than the number of fingers at a wedding ring exhibition. I decided to stay at home and rest 'cause I knew I wouldn't learn anything if I actually went. The thing is, missing 1 day is as good as not going as they cover alot of stuff in one day. Check this out -
++ Day 1 - Intro to WIN2K3 taken from part of a 3rd-year module taken by Diploma in Engineering Informatics.
++Time taken to teach that part of the module - 3 weeks
++Amount of time the lecturers want us to learn the same thing - just over 8 hours
Now, I already had my goddamn flu on Monday so I was trailing from the start. Oh yeah, get this, the temperature in the room was around 10 degrees celsius. It was like a freaking fridge. I felt like I was leftovers from yesterday's dinner (laugh if you got that joke, it's good for you). So I came back on Tuesday with an even worse flu. By the time Wednesday hit me, I was like some sneezing idiot at home. I doubt that they would help me catch-up on those 8-hours so I decided to switch to Software Apps. I hope that guy will reply me quick so that I can prepare myself to mess around with Windows Vista.
But if I don't get my request fulfilled, at least I know that IT is not really my thing. Not the advanced part at least. In DBI you've got an option to choose to major in business or IT. After semester 1 I was seriously pondering doing both if it was possible. Now I know that would be stupid thing to do. Business is the way for me. Don't worry, I didn't make wrong turn in choosing DBI 'cause I still love IT.
Now, excuse me while I chill out waiting for the new semester to start and continue to build on my 3.786 GPA and make my way towards becoming a marketer/advertiser.
Sometimes I think
Is it really worth thinking?
Since thinking makes no difference
Why think at all?
Take action
Make Poverty History
