What do you think of this software. I’m checking it out at the moment.

Japanese classes

Since thursday I have finished my beginners japanese class. UL gaves us all a cert at a reception in the UL white house. The class was great and the other students. I have arranged a teacher for the summer to keep learning and try the exam in september.

Sunday morning

The bells, the bells!

One of the churchs near my house has bell ringing every sunday morning. My windows is open so I can listen to them as I type. Very Cool.

Vista support training

We were trained in vista support today. I have home premium on my home machine so I’m already comforable with it. Still the structured course was good. I would have liked to have done more practical exercises thought.

Tired

New job is tiring. Very long hours, with not enough work being done to really make it worth it.

Then I go home and have my own pc housekeeping to do. 

Right now I’m removing the nortan trial (done), running a backup (doing) letting windows update do its thing (it failed once). Then I have to check is AVG and windows firewall are doing their security jobs.

Blah, later I get to try Wow again though.

Hp learning class

HP does free classes in a whole bunch of different subjects. Currently I’m going through the backup classes. I know a good bit about backing up but I want to flesh it out and get more comfortable with it. Usually I was carrying on someone elses backup policy. How do I pick a solution for a new business?

Finished lesson one, lesson two.

Update: Finished the other four lessons and got a certificate of hp for it. Interesting. I enjoyed reading around the topic too.
