More About Me

Let's be honest, despite the clever intro; I have no clue what I am doing. I am trying to figure out how to transition from one career field to another. I currently work in Acquisitions but I want to be a Software Engineer (Full Stack Dev). I will use this post to help me track and share my ongoing journey through the tech world. Good Luck to my future self. This should be a bumpy ride.

πŸ“šπŸ“† Oops I Joined a Book Club!


πŸ“šOops I Joined a Book Club!

Birds of a feather, read books together! LOL I made that up. 

I woke up one day and decided to seek like minded individuals. So I joined a local book club. 

Anyways, a random Google on the Internet and I found the website: www.bookclubs.com and joined a cute little group called the "Philly Sci-Fi Society" ran by a person named Katie. I blindly joined after seeing the current book on the list was UBIK a book unknown to me but indeed a Sci-Fi read. I started a little interaction with the group message board and WHAMMY! I get to meet them next month on the 10th of Jan. at Uncle Bobbie's Coffee & Books in Germantown. πŸ™ŒπŸΎ So anyways, I ordered the required reading and scheduled time each day to read the book for my bookclub and the book I already started. 

We can add my two books to my perpetual list of things to do 😩🀣 I may or may not have a problem. We can say for sure......

Anywhoo! to accomplish this task, I have created a short schedule for myself that will include coding and reading. 

DAYTIME BOOK: 

The Children of Blood and Bones Series will be my daytime book. (before Sunset)

I read part of this book before and so its a snoozer to me because none of its new. But I have to re-read it before I go on two the other parts in the series. To speed things up I'm using an audiobook. Mostly, I look forward to reading the next book. 


NIGHTTIME BOOK: 

Ubik will be my nighttime book. (Sundown) 

Super Sci-Fi book. I would have never chose it. This will be my before bed (or in the bed) I will be using my eReader and reading my Bookclub book. This will be considered my nighttime reading. Of course I have no limit to any of these activities, but the minimum is to pick them up and read a few pages (for progress). 



I have also created a date tracker in my book to annotate when i read and how many pages per session. This will count as more of an accountability log. 

Anyways, I look forward to meeting my book club and I will be back to provide reviews on them shortly.
