yay

Today I spoke to a Ukrainian woman in Russian, I was nervous but after that I was happy!

27

I'm 27 now.
My French friends sung happy birthday to me in English, from Tver! :)
It was very very nice of them.

teaching abroad..... just a thought

Yesterday, I was standing outside, thinking.... what if I taught English abroad. Russia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran and other places. I would really like to learn the languages, experience the culture and teach people English. I already like to help people with English, even if it frustrates me at times. So why not just do it.. I'm pretty much limiting myself to not do it.

Maybe I'll do it later on as a career change after I get a certificate to teach English.

First semester classes - done

Well I just completed my first semester classes at WGU and it was mostly easy. I'm going to try to get some work done ahead of time so I can complete the second semester quickly. I really think that I can be done in a year. Well less than a year because I'll complete the classes but the term wouldn't be done after a while.

I'm not completely sure about which classes I'll have next semester but I'll try to work on three different classes so I can try to complete the term with two months of free time.

Farsi resources

I've finally been able to start learning Farsi a lot better.

I'm working on typing the vocabulary lists from the 100 Persian Verbs books and the 1000+ Most Useful Persian Words books. I just want to get the basics down for now. While typing up the verb list, I've been able to read Farsi a little better.

These are the books that I'm using to learn Farsi. They're really good to learn from. The verb books conjugates the verbs. The best thing about the vocabulary and verb books is that they're in larger print so you can actually understand what you're reading.

Language & Grammar - Instrumental, Accusative and Preposition

The Instrumental case in Russian has to be the most easiest to remember for me.
But I'm still working on the personal pronouns and adjectives for this case. It's a little more difficult but it's fun. It makes it more difficult because of my limited vocabulary.
The Accusative and Prepositional case is the same for Instrumental.

I really hope to improve in these cases so I can understand everything during this year. I also need improve my vocabulary because I would like to pass the A2-Basic test. I guess I'll be spending a lot of  time this year working on everything.

I figure that I'll do the Dative and Genitive cases last because those seem to be the more difficult cases. Yay for a difficult language...

Recertified - CCENT (Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician)

I re certified for the CCENT before the new version of the exam came out. I had to do this for the degree program that I'm in at WGU. The test was easy but some of the questions were a little confusing but I passed the test. I thought I was going to fail the test.

So I ended up taking the test in Alma, Michigan. The city was really nice and I thought that there weren't going to be a lot of people that lived there. I was told after the test that the city was expanding.

It was a long drive there and my dad went with me in separate cars to make sure that I got there safe. I could take the test early if I wanted to but we went out to eat instead.

The drive back was long but it was nice. Anyways, I got the certification done and now I want to get the CCNA: Security and move into CCNP: Security. But I need to wait and save money to buy ASA's.
