I bet you don’t talk about penises in your Security class.

My Network Security class is the best. Hands down. I’ve never had another class that is regularly held at a deli, where we can drink beer and have the word penis mentioned regularly throughout the conversation.

Now, granted, we were talking about spam and such, but my class is such a crazy one that once one person mentions spam with subject lines that pertain to ‘penis enlargement’ and ‘viagra’, you can bet the conversation is going to keep coming back to that. And it did. I’m sure the other diners who happened to catch snippets of our class conversation thought we were nuts.

Honestly though, classes like this one are the ones I learn the most in. I can’t stand a teacher who just loves to hear the sound of his or her own voice. I generally stop listening after a few minutes. So a class like this one where interaction and conversation, no matter how crazy, is encouraged is one that I actually look forward to going to.

And on a sidenote, because I know some people are interested. I do think I have a job prospect. I’ll know more after the weekend. Plus, one of the companies that rejected me in ATL, has contacted me about a job in their Birmingham office. I’m not too interested in moving to Birmingham, but I’m going to look into it anyways. Wish me luck!

    That sounds like a cool class. I hated having to just sit and listen throughout classes as well. However, my university encouraged constant peer to peer interaction too. It was pretty cool.

    I wish you the best of luck with your job prospect! I wish I could find a job where they would have me relocate. That would be awesome.
