This week I received an e-mail from one of my colleagues, asking if there were people that would join him in his quest to get the SCJD<\/a> certification. Some colleagues (before I got to work for the company<\/a>, so unfortunately I was not one of them) did the same earlier for the SCJP<\/a> certification.<\/p>\n

Because one of my personal goals was to get SCJP<\/a> certified this year, I could not resist and added some extra weight to that: get SCJP<\/a> certified A.S.A.P. so that I can join the collective initiative to become SCJD<\/a> certified. This year.<\/p>\n

Fortunately I’m not the only one that still needs to get his SCJP<\/a> first, so that enlarges the chance that I will have some more time to actually study for it and do an examination with positive outcome.<\/p>\n

So if the software world would be so kind to come to a screeching halt, so I don’t get distracted and can maintain focus, thank you very much. After my certification you can all continue with what you were doing before that: producing too much interesting, distracting software that needs to be installed or tried once, or at least having the specs looked at.<\/p>\n
