Passed! 
Well I did it - I passed the MySQL Core Exam (at least that is what the paper that they gave me at the testing center says). This is going to sound horrible but - it was both harder and easier then I thought it would be. They asked about things I never heard about, things I did hear about but didn’t remember the details, and luckily stuff I did know (thank goodness I had the study guide and used it). The stuff I thought would be on the exam - wasn’t - so the studying saved my butt.
Well thank goodness that is over… Though I still want to go for my Zend cert sometime around the end of the year. But that is a long way away yet. For now - I just want to sit down and read a good book that has nothing to do with computers.
