Hello everyone. Finals week has gone and passed and i did ok. Unfortunately i suffered my first C+ but it didn't drop my GPA to much. We are now in the Spring semester and I am looking forward to all the classes that I am taking this semester. I am taking 4 classes, three at a building and one online. It is my first online class so anyone that has taken online classes i would love to hear feedback such as what are good professors to take and not to. On a side note i want to shout out a professor that is having some big things coming this month. Awhile back you may remember i interviewed a professor named Michael Montlack. He is an English professor that teaches Oral Communication among other English classes. Well this month his new book My Diva : 65 Gay Men on the Women Who Inspire Them has been released. You can order your copy from Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. He has two public appearances promoting the book one of them is April 27th at the Barnes and Noble located at 2289 Broadway, 82nd & Broadway. There will also be a Big Diva event on May 13th. There is also a possibility for an event at Berkeley College so pay attention to the posters around the campus and come out to support our professor.
This is the first week of classes for the Spring semester and i have gone through 3 out of 4. The interesting thing about my schedule is that i have Finance and Finite Mathematics back to back. The reason why it is interesting is both classes are math classes. What makes it more interesting is there were only two Finance classes for night students, one on Tuesday and the other on Thursday, sandwiching the Finite mathematics class. Personally i think that is too much math in to little of time frame. The last class i have taken so far is Management Information Systems. I got the textbook for that class yesterday and after reading the table of contents it appears to be a great class. I think a lot of the chapters will apply to what i am experiencing right now with the move to the new building. One of the chapters is on telecommunications and networks and deciding what to use. This is key as my task so far in the new building is to punch down phone wire. Obviously decisions were made to use certain types of phone blocks, what type of cable to use, etc. I am hoping that this class will give me a little more of an inside view into a managers mind as i hopefully will be in that position on day.
The class that still remains is my network management course. I bought the textbook and started looking at what it has in store. I actually brought it into work to show my server administrator and he turned to me and said, "are you trying to take me job?" I said, "no but someone has to know what is going on in the new building when it comes to servers," and he agreed. My hope is that this class will prepare me to be a good server administrator, especially when we move into the building.
Now it is time for the Rebecca and Jose corner. Well Rebecca is getting ever so close to her second birthday. Jose continues to grow and is crawling all over the place. One day me and my wife were sitting watching TV and Jose was in the kitchen playing with the soda bottles. No more than 2 or 3 minutes later it went quiet and me and my wife looked at each other knowing that silence and kids don't mean something good. So i look in the kitchen and he is no where to be found so i go hunting for Jose. I found him all the way in our bedroom! All me and my wife could do was laugh. Well that is all for now i will see you guys next time.
