# LinkedIn Series: #17

### May, 2025: Day 17 of treating LinkedIn like my own little bloggy blog. :)

Hi! How have you been?  
Does anyone else feel like you're just kind of slogging through May? Or just anyone that works in education and/or has school age children?

Wrapping up the school year always gets me shifting into high gear, and our tech lead is out for a bit, so I'm taking over his duties for the remainder of the school year as well. It's not a big deal because these are tasks I have assisted with in the past, just requires more time management with other deadlines, etc.  
We good. 😎 Tired but good.

The exhaustion has definitely put a temporary damper on my study routine. And a toll on my body (hello, migraine). Luckily I can play catch up on the weekend.

My study time is not limited to an hour per day anymore, as long as I can stay focused. The main tasks include working on my "hit list" (job openings and companies hiring that seem like a very good to okay fit as well as the folks I might be able to contact about the role), Codewars practice, continuing to fill in my technical question anki deck (digi flashcards), and practice my behavioral anki deck.

I am also counting down the days until RenderATL! Last year I was relatively new to the conference scene and really feel like I'll be able to maximize my experience this year. The "hallway track" is so much more important than I gave it credit for in the past. And the after hours events are full of excellent networking - make sure to RSVP to those as well. If my excitement has piqued your interest, ROXYR will get you a 15% discount on a general admission ticket!

Have a great weekend! Have y'all purchased a CYC ticket yet? 😅
