Arrived to class on time and have been better at being early before the official shift begins.
Today I began typing unit certification on typing.com, and it has actually been very fun. It is aiding in remembering what the rhythm of typing was in elementary school (they put fun SpongeBob boxers over our keyboards on the G3 iMac computers).
After typing, we continued our project on the BerkMart Investor Conference. When we were halfway through day two, I realized I made a mistake. I was slightly stressed about providing the first portion of the project. Today I realized and was gently notified that I did not interpret the information correctly. The first list on page one is a lead-in; I took it as the first task. After taking two classes to finish what I thought was the first task, I realized I stressed myself with fear of failing expectations; that I was too avoidant to check in- even with general encouragement to do so. Not trying to go too deep, but this was definitely a beautiful chance to log-check for p.o.s.i.t.i.v.e self-growth. Awareness of kid Tiye traumas can be met with growth because this world is s.u.p.p.o.r.t.i.v.e . Speaking up for personal clarification is not always met with belittlement or harm. Thank both of my instructors for their encouragement today; it really unhooked an Anchor I’ve been refusing to let go.
August 4, 2026: Today, I got introduced to a lot of new programs. First was Homebase, which allows me to clock in and out during the beginning and end of a class session. Second was GuardWire, an application allowing the user to remote control another computer. Finally, there’s osTicket, which lets users send notes of various priorities to others. For example, if someone needs their computer to be repaired, they can notify others using osTicket.
Started the class by clocking in with Homebase. In the first 15 minutes of class, I did a practice typing. I continued working on the BerkMart Event Project from Step 5 to Step 7. After Step 7, which is the summary email I sent, I have fully completed the BerkMart Event Project. I had a very productive day completing the project. Before the class ends, I did a “What did I do today” post, and then after the class ends, I will clock out of Homebase.
Whoohoo, today’s class time is over. It was interesting working on the spreadsheet and being able to complete a realistic, but fictional, project. The data entry in Sheets is probably my strong suit, even though usually in excess, I don’t like doing it. It was good practice following the steps and checking in with the instructor up until step 8, which was the extra credit mail merge.
After putting the Avery Labels Merge add-on into my google docs, I could find and run the extension, pull the data from the google sheets I had just created, and neatly display mail merge information on the name labels for the investor conference. I like feeling like a lot of computer work has been accomplished with a click of a button, so I enjoyed this part.
It being Tuesday, I feel like I also have a head start on my accountability homework due on Thursday. I’m spending some time answering the questions to help improve my knowledge and ability around focusing. I don’t feel like a particularly struggle with focusing, but I do try to work on similar activities throughout the day to improve my overall productivity.
Today I worked on the BerkMart conference coordination project. I learned how to do the “COUNTIF” function in Sheets, which is very useful!
We started typing. Today was not my day; I got low scores for typing. We have our good days and bad days. Then we worked on the BerkMart Conference sheets, and I finished and think I like what I did. My perfection came into play when doing the spreadsheet; I got it done in time. I had a lot of fun.
August 3, 2026: Today, I got started on my Computer Technician Training class. We had an orientation after we greeted each other and I got my browser set up for the class with the necessary extensions. After that, I started to work on Percipio.
