What I Did Today

Today I posted job listings to CTP’s skill center for the first hour, and then immediately got to work finishing up the draft for the Google Slides group project I was assigned. First I tried making the project easier to edit under the hood, in case changes needed to be made in the future. After about an hour, I realized that because we put off the layout styling, it would be difficult to implement any theme changes this late. I wish we would have been able to make better use of the layout editor for the sake of workflow, but it didn’t matter too much because most of the slides had a unique layout anyway. The project was reaching a point where I felt like any changes I could think of making would end up being either a complete overhaul, or a tiny detail change, and either way I decided it would be better to wait for feedback. Finally I worked on other assigned tasks for the rest of the day.

What I did today.

Today, I began the day by working on the Drive Image pre-lab. I completed the questions and looked up terms. Then, I moved on to the lab, working on Drive Imaging with Acronis True Image. I finished Part 1, which involved restoring a Non-Sysprepped Image. After that, I started Part 2, which involved restoring a Sysprepped Image and finished by creating the VM and installing the Acronis ISO.
