15 - First Week of Co-op

5/24/2020

0 Comments

 
This past week, I got back to work as a manufacturing automation co-op at the Lubrizol Corporation. It was a blur of trying to get access to different development servers, being introduced to new technologies, and meeting new people. My experience so far with development has only been what I've learned in school and the languages I know (C#, C++, Python and some Java). I'll be learning new languages and technologies, including bootstrap, knockout, html, javascript, etc. It'll be interesting to see how I leverage these languages in my co-op and after co-op.

I wrote last week about how I joined a study group with friends from classes to do leetcode problems. The expectation in the study group was that it would be intense studying with 6-7 problems per week. Going through those problems, however, I felt like it would be better if I studied on my own and really understood the problems by going at a slower pace. I still would like to work on leetcode this summer, so by writing it here I will hold myself accountable to 1-2 questions a week.

My web design project for ACM-W which I am also using as an honors experience was approved last week. I'm excited to start working towards it soon.

I was also picked to be the logistics team lead for the 2021 RevolutionUC hackathon. Although I was an organizer for the previous hackathon, this is a huge jump in responsibility. I met with the previous team lead to get some insight and as long as I stay on top of things, it will go great! This will really test my time management skills, since planning starts in fall, when I go back to school and have other responsibilities for the student orgs that I am in.

I'm very happy about this 3 day weekend and getting some rest tomorrow :)
