20 Jul 06 What I Will Be Doing Without Taking Summer Vacation
So I am attending Baker College Online, which I found on allonlineschools.net (see note). I attended the University of Washington for many years and then ran out of money. Since the job market has gotten tougher I find it more difficult to get the interview. I can almost always get a job I am qualified for if I can get in the door, but the thinly veiled “college dropout” on my resume was not helping.
As such I am persuing a Associates of Applied Science in Computer Programming. I have worked out the details and I should be done, attending half time (eight credits per quarter), by Fall 2008.
This is what the next two years hold for me:
Fall 2006
- CIS 106A - Introduction to Operating System Concepts
- CS 111 - Introduction to Programming
Winter 2007
- CS 217A - C++ Programming
- ENG 102 - Composition II
Spring 2007
- CS 221 - Introduction to Java
- CS 222 - Programming w/ Java
Summer 2007
- CS 223 - Java Object Oriented Programming
- PSY 101 - Human Relations
Fall 2007
- SPK 201 - Oral Communications
- CIS 331 - Database Management Using SQL
Winter 2008

- WRI 115 - Workplace Communications
Spring 2008
- CIS 310 - Visual Basic
- WRK 218 - Work Experience Project
- WRK 219B - Professional Career Strategies
Summer 2008

Fall 2008

* Please note that I work for the company that produces allonlineschools.net. I did, however, use their directory to research schools and find the one I wanted to go to.

So, reading through the list of classes, I see that right about now you should be in the middle of Psych 101! Psych was my minor, and I imagine this is going to be a fun one for you, how’s it going?
Currently, I’m in a project management course on reading/interpreting construction documents. Dry but useful.

Well I kind of ran out of steam. The online class format was not working for me…
Add to that the relationship issues (now resolved) of the last eight months…
