Re: Yet another CCIE blog... fleeing the country to study in

I'll probably take my lab when I get back to the USA in April/May.
I'll retake my written (because the one I passed in 2009 expired) in
Bangkok maybe next month.

The great thing about the beach is I can easily focus because I have
less worries... don't have to worry about money, distractions, work,
etc.
