Alright, I have 10 more days to go! I started studying chapter 5 this morning. It is all about WANs. It is actually a pretty short chapter so I should be able to finish it by tomorrow. Today I just did not feel like studying. Have you ever had one of those days? But I [...]

I finally finished chapter 4 this morning after studying for more than 2.5 hours. I really just wanted to get it done today so I didn’t let anything get in my way. I think besides the whole fact that I can’t take my ICND1 Exam here in Boise, I’m still on track to being ready [...]

So today I got an email from VUE…. Dear Blake, The testing center you are scheduled at will not be able to administer your exam because they do not meet the minimum requirements. Please contact us at 877-404-3926 or go online at www.pearsonvue.com to reschedule your exam to a different location as soon as possible. [...]

Okay, its 8:20AM and It’s about time for me to go to class, but just wanted to let everyone know of my progress. I’m still in Chapter 4 and currently am reading in the section about Constructing a Network. I know it seems like I say this every time, but I’m really not where I [...]

Alright, one more day closer to when I take my exam on Feb. 10, 2010. I’m still behind schedule a little more than I want to be, but I’ll catch up and be ready by the time my exam date roles around. I know chapter 4 is a big chapter, so it will probably take [...]

Hey everyone I just wanted to let you all know that I registered for my test today. I wanted to take it on the 8th of Feb but the testing center is closed on Mondays so I will be taking it on the 10th of Feb @ 9:00 am. So I will be getting my [...]

Alright, sorry that I kind of got out of my routine and didn’t post every day. I really wanted to move out of my house and into a cheaper apartment before school started. Today I came to school early so that I could continue studying for my ICND1 Exam. It was actually really nice coming [...]

I’m in the process of moving right now and it has been taking up all of my time. Honestly though I could have found the time to write my daily post and make my video log, but I just didn’t make it a priority. I’m hoping we can move into our new apartment tomorrow so [...]

Okay Day 5 was not the best day for studying, but I did plan out every day what I need to do in order to be prepared by the time Feb 8th roles around. I know it’s not that complicated of a plan nor is it very detailed, but it doesn’t need to be. I’m [...]

Okay I made it to day 4! And even though I’ve been waking up at 5:30 every morning for the past 3 days I feel great and I’m just absorbing all the information in chapter 2. So far I’ve learned about how a computer sends a packet to another computer with a switch in the [...]
