Since I commited my CCIE journey the road seems never ending. On those early months, I passionately studied and feel like I can counquer the any mountains by taking more coffees. Apparently, it takes more than just coffees and lack of sleeps. November and December was the hardest time where all of my time sucked up to work and family matters. At work, as a consultant, like everybody else, I need to do more than one project and one of them sucking my time badly. I also moved to a new place where I need to pack and unpack all of my gears, organizing with agent.

Well. Christmas holiday seems too short for us. I need to repaint the whole place and fixing broken things (those bloody silicon sealant was the hardest of ‘em all. I don’t understand why people want to carry those around). Family time meant that I had to go around everyday to enjoy the holiday yet also buying things to repair the place. This Christmas time I’ve spent most of my time with relatives and friends coming over, going around, and be a chauffer. It’s fun and the best way to forget that I need to study.

Now, the family time if over. Although I still need to fix the house I can now have time to study. It’s been a while since I postponed my study and I feel strange when I’m back reading those books. It gives this funny feeling when I touch those books and start reading it again. I think I really need to redo my Switching, Frame Relay, RIP, and EIGRP study as I feel that I’m losing it.

On 31 December 2008, I bought myself InternetworkExpert materials to start with. For this end year season, IE offers 25% discount for all materials. I haven’t sat for any written exam therefore I’m thinking to finish IEWB vol 1 then do the written.

I should’ve taken my written exam last year but it didn’t happen. I need to revisit my strategy on how am I going to do this. Hopefully I can have written in early of this year.
