Learn SQL
Untitled 6 months ago

With my career change to a student and assistant this fall, I will need to know SQL for the database work that the professors do. I bought a book and am trying to remember some of the language that I previously new (but forgot).



Continue Blogging for all of 2009
Untitled 6 months ago

I started blogging in Dec 2008 with the selfish purpose of simply improving my writing. I am not sure if I am improving, but find bloggging fun as it allows me to be creative and offer my own thoughts on a variety of subjects.

I am also flattered that a few people even enjoy my material.



earn a PhD
Untitled 6 months ago

I earned a BA in Criminal Justice several years ago, and then was employed at a police department. I changed jobs to non-law enforcement work, and at the same time finished an MS last year.

After alot of work and probably more luck than I will admit, I was offered a fully funded opportunity to begin studying as a PhD student in the fall of 2009. I am excited and a little scared.
