Well here we are in December. The Fall quarter ended a couple weeks ago. That Philosophy of science course turned out to be very challenging. I enjoyed it but managed only a B+ grade. My C# class final took more time than I had anticipated and between getting married the week before finals and coming down with a bad cold I found myself putting out less than 100% during finals.
I can’t wait until Winter quarter because I will be taking some gritty courses geared towards my specialty which is database administration. I have to admit that since last job amounted to database administration without the title the technical classes have been pretty easy. I know that they won’t be forever and I have to resist the urge to plan my work assuming I can do what should be a week’s worth of work in 8 hours. I am also taking a Micrososft Server admin class which should be useful. You never know when the need to set up a server could arise. With any luck I will be able to tackle that blindfolded three months from now.
