Off to the City

Today we went out for some shopping. First we went to the Georges Market where Florian and I ordered the „Titanic Burger“, it was a very big burger and afterwards we were very full. With a lemonade in our hand we went to a Primark. On the way there we passed by a souvinir shop where everyone took a little souvenir with them. I bought a zippo lighter for myself because I collect them and the motive was very nice. After that we went to the primark, it was only for children and men, so it was quite empty. everyone had found and tried on some things because it wasn’t as crowded as in berlin. After everything was paid we went home and spent the rest of the day relaxed with a few series.

An expensive photo

Today I started my day with a good breakfast. Afterwards I went directly out to catch my bus. Today I had my Cisco Certified Network Security exam. It took me around 1 hour to get there. As I arrived there I had to sign a lot of documents that I had no cheating intentions and such things. Later I also had to do a body check. When I did CCNA in Berlin I just had a quick check, but this time it was a full one. I had to empty my pockets and they also took a look at my back pockets. They checked my legs and my glasses too. They checked like 2 minutes through my glasses until they were sure that they just normal glasses and not something special.

Let’s prepare and try to keep calm.

My work was as always, I programmed and continued on my projects. I also got an answer about my yesterday’s problem (being registered into 2 internships). My teacher told me to ignore the second one.
During my breaks and in every free minute I did some preparation tests for the Cisco Certified Network Security. I already have been preparing myself for this exam over one month and this week I just had good runs when I tried the questions. Like today, I had just one mistake from 230 questions. Today I decided to try because in the preparation exam’s I know a lot of stuff and I already watched a whole youtube course about this topic. While registering for the exam, everything was fine.

A Family Visit and Avengers Endgame for the Third Time

The second half of this week began with setting up a PC for a colleague, I needed to set it up for Windows 10 and build in a new hard drive but before that I removed the PC from its old domain and set up a new user. After that I moved all the data from the old user to the new user. After work I met up with my parents and my girlfriend so I can stay with them for the weekend, we went to the hotel to leave the stuff there and then tried to find a place for dinner in North Greenwich.

On the next day at work I just installed some software on that PC and did some self-study. For the lunch I met up with my family and we ate something in Twickenham. After work we went to the Camden Market to go over the market and get some food and clothes. From the Camden Market we made our way to Chinatown and the Piccadilly Circus to go in some stores there. In the evening I went into the cinema again to see Avengers Endgame with my girlfriend because she didn’t see it.

What a mess!

Today I started as usually with some programming. After lunch I got an email from our school. They need some documents from us and at first it was a bit unclear which documents we needed to send them. After a talk with the agency it was now clear. Unfortunately we found out that our task was to send these information’s since in the first week. But in the first week we couldn’t send this information because we still had lessons and we were not to our workplaces. In the second week we forgot because we ignored the first week (it was already done).

Three days, and some stress

After the adventurous Monday I was ready for a week of wiping hard drives and first level support. Tuesday and Wednesday where just that, but today we got an email from our school in Germany, stating we had forgotten to sent important information.

We had some trouble understanding what exactly we missed and ended up asking the agency for help.

As we got our work placements later than was initially anticipated, we forgot to sent the info about what company we work for and who our mentors are.
