Safety Time

May 31, 2017

Are you ready for a Hurricane?

#HurricanePrep Another year has gone by since my last safety post. That time went by so fast.

June is here again and it means the start of Hurricane season here in Florida.

Last years’ post has a good list of safety items you should have in case of emergency.

This month I’ll check all those supplies and make sure they are working.

Even though I live in an apartment that has their own maintenance, I still like to do my own safety checks just to be sure.

I’ll test the smoke detectors (wearing earplugs of course) and checking that the fire extinguisher is charged.

Also will check that my emergency hurricane supplies are working and functional and stockpile a few new cans of food.

Another good disaster preparedness step is to secure important documents in a safe place and make copies of them and save those in a secure cloud service just in case.

Make sure you have the correct insurance coverage also in case of a hurricane or flood.

This year in Florida, our Governor has declared a nine-day tax free period for hurricane supplies beginning May 31.

Useful Travel Apps

May 24, 2017

For my last trip I found the following Android apps useful*:

Cover artGoogle Calendar – If it’s not on my calendar it not important to me. I used it for adding reminders for the trip. Also I can schedule flights according to the correct timezone for both departure and landing.

Cover artEvernote – I keep my packing checklist here. It’s useful to share the list with my travelling companion to make sure we have the stuff we need.

Cover artGo City Card – Kept a QR code version of my multi-pass tickets here. It was easy to retrieve and scan at ticket counters.

Cover artGoogle Play Music – For playing music via Bluetooth in the rental car.

I Survived Coding Bootcamp

May 11, 2017

I’m still alive! Sorry for the late update. The last few months were really busy for me with classes, homework and projects.

Cost
I paid for the class in full and got a reduced rate from $10,000 to  $8,500
UCF’s Coding Bootcamp Registration

Schedule
The boot camp format schedule was 3 times per week for approximately 6 months.
I had classes on Mon and Wed with a joint class on Saturdays with students from Tues and Thurs.

Each class was 3 hours long from 6.30pm till 9.30pm. Unfortunately for me I was driving for the same amount of time as I spent in class 3 hours each time I had to go to class in Orlando from Melbourne. During the week I would leave home by 3:00pm and return around 11:00pm. I would get to Orlando before serious rush hour traffic, have diner there then go to class. Luckily, I was not working so I could leave home early, it also allowed me to be able to review and study on my own on the days I didn’t have class. Which was necessary for me to keep up with the weekly homework assignments.
