IS 101

IS 101 has come to an end. I didn't know what to expect when I first started the class, but I thought I am going to get it done and over with. Which in the end was not really the correct attitude to have, I learned a lot and meet some very interesting people. The most interesting of which was the teacher Mr. Wu. I can admit I was not the best student that I could have been in his class, but he would not let me fail. First he stayed after class many times for me to catch up and get work done. One thing that I did like was that fact that he has an if I'm going to stay for you to get this done I'm going to make sure it's right attitude. I went to school in North Carolina, where they had a "No Student Left Behind" mentality when it comes to school and Mr. Wu has this same mentality, however instead of grading on a curve or just letting you turn anything to get he work done, He made sure you were utilizing your full potential and doing the work right. I must say there were times I was like I should just drop the glass and take it again later, but when Mr. Wu stated he wouldn't be teaching the class again and how he motivated me to do my best I didn't want to let him down and wanted to make him proud, by not only passing his class but doing well and being a student that he could brag about in the future, not quite ass well as his top performers (y'all know who y'all are), but good enough so that other teachers could see why he was proud of his students.

LabSim 5.9.2 Excel Tables

One thing that I found to be quite fascinating is turning excel spreadsheets into tables and the amount of customization options and features that are available. It's crazy to me that when you get done that your spreadsheet can look and function like a completely different beast than a simple spreadsheet and it can become way more useful and helpful in getting work done. I've used excel to do a simple monthly budgets in the past, but now and in the future my budgets are going to be more user friendly, efficient, and more effective in helping me reach my financial goals. They will also look a whole lot better than a simple black and white spreadsheet.
