This week we learned mostly about switches, and partook in a legit simulation that included sending messages to our switch (Wait a minute, now… ). We learned rather quickly if they had what it takes to get the message to the right place. (Under Pressure!) We also discussed enscapsulation, and the steps the different layers have to undergo before they can travel to their destination. The simulations are definitely helpful, mainly because when the class gets off onto some oddball side-topic, I have no idea what the deuce they’re saying, so I become easily distracted and focused on my cellular device. I do, however, learn more about SOCIAL networks during this time. 
Besides being an awesome student, I contributed to my team this week by being the “OUI”, or Wii game console. I rocked it. Hopefully next week I’ll challenge the “LFINO” network to a Wii Tournament, eh? Prepare for domination.
