Well here we are @Point no Point for our one year anniversary and we have the Anna with us. She loves the Hot Tub, and we had our first fire in the fireplace, and she couldn’t stop looking at it. Just having breakfast now, and then headed down to the beach to make some sand castles. This is good times!
So, the other night two brake lines started leaking at the same time. Cor was driving home from rehearsal. I ended meeting her with the Jetta and driving the truck from Sardis to Greendale without brakes. I find it hard to believe that two spots would start leaking at the same time. I was worried it was either tampering, or the remaining two are soon to follow. When we dropped it off at a local garage, we left a note attached to the key that instructed them to phone us, but they didn’t, and instead just replaced two of the lines and found a tie rod to replace to make it an even 500 bucks (again). I guess they just do whatever they want. Guess what, so do we.
Well after a few days of work, the spot next to our house is turning into a nice little patio.
We had to shovel out all the old grass, tiger saw out a bunch of old roots, and dig and rake it level. Right now we are putting in the rock and then we will gravel once the beds are all contained.
The flowerbeds will mostly contain Catnip and Catgrass for the Nar :)
Well ok, here goes. I’m going back to school and I’ve started this new blog so I can have a place to dump all the things I’ve learned this year. Things I don’t (or do) want to forget, study guides, exam scores, links etc… Since the brain can only store so much information, I figured I am going to need somewhere for the rest of it to go!
Classes start on September 5th, and I have a lot of reading to do by then. Also on the agenda is Physics and Algebra review, as well as basic composition and grammar and sentences cause you know sometimes I write alot cause that’s just the way it comes out and Instructors aren’t going to mark you by the length of those sentences and after so long of being out of school omg I have learned a lot of bad habits and prolly will need 2 look over the way it’s sposed to be done?
For reals… this is a journey. I’m sailing away… No wait. Scratch that. Anyways, see you soon :) –J
Edit: Sep 7 / 06
What a week it’s been so far. What I am going to try to do is run down all of the things we talk about in the class, and review it by putting it into the blog. Sometimes things will be very structured and on topic, and sometimes someone asks a weird question and off we go.
We will be spending the year as follows.
1. Fundamentals – AC/DC
2. Discrete Semiconductors
3. Linear Electronics
4. Digital Electronics
5. Microprocessors / Microcontrollers – On this section, my Instructor explained we may spend a bit more study time on Microcontrollers, since they are getting used for a lot of applications lately.
At the end of the year, depending on how much time is remaining, we will take some time looking into specialty stuff, such as A+ (took it, certified already), Network+ (Yes! bring it on!), Home automation, and automotive applications of electronics.
If we keep moving at the pace that has been set, I doubt very much that I will have time to go back and organize these pages, but hey you never know. Either way, take it for what it is. Some scribbly notes. Laters!
