Status update

I just got back from California last night. I was there for about 5 days, the highlight of course was the Dodgers game 3 win over the Cubs, clinching the series win. It was the most exciting sporting event I have ever been to and was well worth it whatever I spent (I stopped counting).

In LA, people are notorious for arriving in the 3rd inning and leaving in the 7th. They were still arriving late (traffic was horrible as usual), but 20 minutes after the game, people were still in the stands as the players celebrated with everyone. It was an awesome experience I never will forget.

That being said, it's time to get back to the lab. For now, here is where I stand:

I have completed Volume 1 of IPexper'ts blended learning solution. I have gone back and labbed the multicast and qos sections again, and plan on doing them a third time. I will also review the security and ACL sections and probably a few others.

I have now started Volume 2 and will start Section 4, once I get rack time scheduled. I also plan on doing some graded mock labs (volume 3) in between the volume 2 labs. I still have more than 5 months away (which I may move up depending on how I feel) from taking the lab but confidence is pretty high.

back to the lab...
