Today, I received some letters after my name. I passed the 70-573, gives me my MCPD certification, hooray! Yes, I know, it's 2013 – why am I only passing my 2010 exams now? Simply put: laziness. Well that a fear of failing. How could I possibly go back to work knowing I'd failed an exam to demonstrate I can do the very thing I'm getting paid to do!
But I didn't. I passed comfortably, and now can focus on working towards my 70-480 exam, so one down three to go.
I guess until then, if I want to be really douchey, I can sign off my emails with…
