+I've been wanting to write this post for a few weeks now but since I'm in a new term for my school seems like a good time to reflect.
+
+Currently I am studying for my CCNA and in, hopefully, my final term for my Bachelor's of Science in Network Operations and Security at WGU.
+As it stands I have attemped the CCNA exam twice now and failed so I'm working on changing up my study method to go in and ace it on the third
+attempt. I'd also like to try to blog here while I spend time in Packet Tracer labbing and reviewing JeremyITLab's and CBT Nuggets courses.
+
+Hopefully what I write here will help someone else who is currently studying or just wants to learn more about how networks work as well as
+be a way for me to cement enough information into my head for the exam.

+
+As of the writing of this post I have 24 weeks in this term to go through and study up on my week areas and pass two more courses to recieve my
+degree. I think the way the I will update this blog will be to work on an article through the week of studying and labbing or have an article
+for each topic I work on which will be focused on the following from the [Cisco Exam Topics Guide](https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/s/ccna-exam-topics).
+
+Topic 2
+* VLANS
+* Etherchannel
+* CDP and LLDP
+
+Topic 3
+* Static routing for IPv4 and IPv6
+* OSPF
+
+Topic 5
+* ACLs
+
+Well, enough writing this little introduction article. It is Saturday so I'm going to get started working on some subnetting then VLAN labbing.
+
+Thanks for reading,
+~Ben \ No newline at end of file
